WOW-one for us !
All of you that know me, know how strongly I advocate for this cause….I have spent many, many, hours at the helm of whatever medium was at my disposal to get this message out there. So many others have done the same…our prayers have been heard and answered~
It was forever slow in coming but it’s a hurdle we have made~
This is the starting point that can change years of wrongs and start a nation on the road to better health.
Thanks to Mike Adams at Natural News for his ever and unwavering dedication to stand-up for what is right by exposing what is wrong…Mike must be dancing in the street! http://www.naturalnews.com
(NaturalNews) When a government panel of experts finds the courage to tell the truth about cancer, it’s an event so rare that it becomes newsworthy. Late last week, a report from the President’s Cancer Panel (PCP) broke ranks with the sick-care cancer establishment and dared to say something that natural health advocates have been warning about for decades: That Americans are “bombarded” with cancer-causing chemicals and radiation, and if we hope to reduce cancer rates, we must eliminate cancer-causing chemicals in foods, medicines, personal care products and our work and home environments.
In a directive to President Obama, the report states, “The panel urges you most strongly to use the power of your office to remove the carcinogens and other toxins from our food, water, and air that needlessly increase healthcare costs, cripple our nation’s productivity, and devastate American lives.”
Please…read the full report and share with us and everyone you know …this awesome news.

A Mighty May indeed~
PS: I am happy to say when the Health Care reform bill was being tossed about…I sent a letter to our president suggesting this same action…instead of spending untold sums of money on “health care”…consider putting that money and that energy into cleaning up our food sources…we would then have much less need for health care at the critical stages we now have.

Did you know that potatoes are harvested, and then scrubbed, and then sprayed with a chemical to keep them from sprouting? That chemical is fairly toxic to humans, and it is on virtually every potato you eat, including frenchfries, mashies, and potatoes in soups, potato chips, etc.
Most meat in your grocer’s case has been injected with sodium nitrates, as a “flavor enhancer” and to keep it from spoiling so quickly. The reason it does not spoil is that sodium nitrate kills fast growing living cells. So bacteria cannot survive well in it. Cells that line your digestive system are also fast growing cells – and they are killed by it too. All cured meats have this – ham, bacon, bologna, hotdogs, lunchmeats. But a lot of other meats have it also, namely chicken and pork.
Many vegetables and fruits are treated after harvest with chemicals to make them last longer and look prettier. And all prepared foods have chemicals that are very harmful. The amount of those chemicals in our food is horrendous – originally they were used only for a few things, but now they are in EVERYTHING we eat, which is causing a wide range of problems.
I have Crohn’s Disease, which I am managing with diet alone (something doctors will tell you is not possible), simply by eliminating chemical irritants, soy products, and lactose.
It is very hard to do, because soy and preservatives are in SO many foods. But it beats the alternative, which is a highly medicated and slow and painful death.

Laura,
Unless we begin farming again, we will be vulnurable to all the chemicals in foods. I like to eat out occassionally but don’t eat salad anymore because of so many horror stories.
I am so glad you have found a way to manage Crohns Disease ad I know it is a debilitating condition.
thank you so much for stopping by and sharing your experience and concerns. I appreciate it… and you! I also appreciate that you and Kevin work so hard for your clients. I love how you created EdenFlorist.com and am excited about Women in Ecommerce (www.WECAI.org). You two are the BEST!

Hi Laura,
I too am happy that you are able to manage the Crohns Disease , may you be blessed with courage and determination…I suspect you have been already~
Yes, it is a fact that the bulk of all our food supplies ( unless organic-and some of that is iffy ) is drenched with chemicals.
Hopefully, so hopeful that this will be the eye-opener for major change.
Thank you for reading and responding.
You have a fabulous day~
