Statement at End the Fed Rally, NYC – November 22, 2008
Ralph Fucetola JD, NSF Trustee

Good afternoon. I am speaking today on behalf of the Natural Solutions Foundation Peace Research Institute and have a message for you from our President, Maj. Gen. Bert Stubblebine, US Army, retired: “War is bad for your health. Unstable money systems are the tool of those who generate wars for their own financial health. Health freedom implies the freedom to live free from the threat of engineered wars to enrich the few and kill and subjugate the many. It also implies the right to earn enough real money to suport the health and well being of your body, your family, your community and your world.”

Without a stable and sensible, non-fiat currency to direct and drive both our foreign and domestic policy, we have no hope of health, of peace or of freedom. I urge you to become active in the twin campiagns to secure your health freedom from the forces which are destroying it as we speak and your fiancial liberation from the same forces which are enslaving you through fiat currency and the diabolical Fed system, again, even as we speak and rally.

Natural Solutions Foundation and the Natural Solutions Foundation Peace Research Institute offer natural solutions to these complex, intertwined and devastatingly dangerous problems.
We urge you to link minds and efforts with us to lead the successful battle against these twin dangers.

Recall for a moment the chilling and famous statement of Meyer Rothschild who said, “Give me control of a nation’s money and I care not who makes the laws ….” and the history of the fiat money managers who have engineered and financed every war since the American Revolution by creating bellicose causes on both side, financing both sides and creating the fiat funds to purchase the resulting devastation… and doing it over and over again.

And make no mistake. This greed and inhumanity has no religion. It has no economic or political theory or creed, but its own well being… and it has neither mercy nor compassion.

The Federal Reserve, like Codex Alimentarius, is a complex, globalized and globalizing system of domination designed to enslave and/or kill you, either rapidly or slowly.

But we are not slaves. We are free men and women who must choose our own destiny and reject the nefarious plans of those who would control us through inauthentic means and through gile.

Now is the time. The system of central state control of the value of our money has been exposed as corrupted and as a failure. Through peaceful, intelligent and persuasive means, we must wage a war of peace and health for ourselves and our future. We call for a true return to a real commodity money standard set by markets, not politicians. As the Constitution teaches, no state shall make anything but gold and silver a legal tender for debt.

We reject the usurpation of Constitutional right which the Federal Reserve represents. That usurpation, over a century old, known as the “Legal Tender Cases” abrogated to the US Government the unconstitutional power to declare legal tender and led directly to the crisis of the moment. This usurpation must end: End the Fed! Return to Constitutional money!

During the hundred years before the Fed, twenty dollars was one ounce of fine gold. At the end of that hundred years, the gold dollar bought more than at the start. Today, after nearly a hundred years of the Federal Reserve fiat money fraud, the dollar has lost 99% of its value! Today, if you can find it, a one ounce gold coin will cost about one thousand Federal Reserve Fraud Notes.

The Natural Solutions Foundation welcomes you and your creativity and capacities. You can reach us at www.HealthFreedomUSA.org and join our community of strength by signing up for our eAlerts and letting everyone, and I do mean EVERYONE, you know understand that this is a major issue and you are an activated citizen urging them to become the same – an activated citizen.

Again, www.HealthFreedomUSA.org and the Health Freedom eAlerts.

This IS our country. It IS our monetary system. It IS our Health and, ultimately, it IS our freedom which is at stake. Thank you.

Maj. Gen Albert N. Stubblebine III (US Army, Ret.)

FROM SURRENDERING ALL OVERSIGHT TO BIOTECH CORPORATIONS

LET’S TAKE THESE TWO EMERGENCIES ONE AT A TIME AND CREATE A MASSIVE PUSHBACK

1. FDA SAYS “NO SHIPMENT ACROSS STATE LINES IF STUDIES ABOUT SUPPLEMENT HAVE EVER BEEN PUBLISHED!”

FDA, both domestically and through Codex, has been trying to make information about the relationship of food and food components to health forbidden speech. That includes supplements, of course.

As if that were not bad enough, they have come up with another ploy to make it illegal to ship supplements across state lines IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY PUBLISHED HEALTH STUDIES ABOUT ANY INGREDIENT! And we have only 5 days to stop them.

This is a diabolical, but brilliant, drug company-inspired double whammy:

Whammy Number 1 : Under proposed FDA/Codex rules you cannot tell anyone about what nutrients and supplement can do for them because they are, say the bureaucrats, not “supported” in the scientific literature (despite the science called “Biochemistry” and millions of peer-reviewed journal articles)

Whammy Number 2 : You won’t be able to get supplements if what they can do for you has ever been documented in the scientific literature, as part of any medical study.

It’s Actually Even Worse Than That

In July, 2007, The FDA Amendments Act of 2007, Public Law 110-85, was adopted by the US. Congress. With your support, Natural Solutions Foundation Health Freedom advocates fought hard to convince Senator Harkin (R-IL) and others to fight to keep the language exempting dietary supplements from the enhanced FDA power provisions in the bill in the House/Senate conference committee version, where it appeared that it might have been removed. That protective language remained the law of the United States of America, enacted as section 1011, the DSHEA Product Rule of Construction.

See our comments at that time:
http://vitaminlawyerhealthfreedom.blogspot.com/2007/07/trip-to-dc-congress-liberty-coalition.html

The failed and corrupt FDA, however, in its relentless crusade to eliminate the rights of Americans to learn about or use the most significant economic competitor to pharmaceutical drugs has no respect for the law and no interest in either your freedom or your health. They are currently seeking comments that could lead to them promulgating regulations which would make it illegal to ship supplements across state lines. This would accomplish both definitions of “Nutricide” as I have lectured and written about for years:

Nu tri cide (3 syllables):

1. The death of the body of knowledge about the relationship between health and nutrition

2. The death of large populations through the manipulation of the food [and supplement] supply.

URGENT ACTION REQUIRED NOW

Comments close on November 25, 2008 on a new regulatory sneak attack against supplements. FDA regulations will, if the FDA succeeds, make the shipment of supplements across state lines illegal – get this – IF THE SUPPLEMENT HAS BEEN THE SUBJECT OF A CLINICAL STUDY.

They’re BAAAAAAACK!

If you value

* Your access to supplements and nutrients
* Your health
* Your freedom to determine what goes into your body
* Your First Amendment Rights

then I urge you in the strongest terms to click below NOW to help make sure that the FDA, at least this once, obeys the law of the land.

http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26269

Last time the FDA tried something this awful, through the 2007 “Draft CAM Guidance”, the Natural Solutions Foundation alerted health freedom lovers. Time was very short then, too but as a result, 588,000+ people came to our site to tell the FDA not to continue with its plan to turn nutrients into “untested drugs” and therefore make them all illegal. The FDA system “accidentally’ crashed so “only” 198,000+ people got their comments in but FDA got the message and backed off.

We said at that time we counted their backing off as a triumph but that they would be back. Well, they are back and they are sneakier and meaner than ever.

We have enormous power in the aggregate. Now it is time to use it. Again.

Click the link below to use our power and back off the forces that are dedicated to taking away your right to use natural health options prevent and deal with illness – or even know what they can do for you – instead of high-profit drugs.

It is imperative that you tell your friends about his and have them take action, too. Forward this email NOW to your entire list with a little note at the top telling them that taking action now is vitally important to their health and to their freedom.

Emergency Number 2 Coming Right Up, Courtesy of the Lame Duck Administration

Make no mistake – as the days of the Bush Administration draw to a close, Industry shills inside the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) are ramming through regulations (which acquire the force of law once finalized) which weaken protection for human and environmental health to a degree which leaves the observer nearly speechless.

USDA has released a proposed rule gutting any meaningful oversight of GMO (genetically engineered) crops and allowing biotech companies to grow food crops engineered to produce drugs and industrial chemicals without protection for conventional or organic crops. It is imperative to remember that GMO foods are deemed “substantially equivalent” because of a 1992 Executive Order by then-President George Bush, Sr., NOT because of any scientific or epidemiological studies. It is imperative, too, to recall that the genetic material from these crops and animals enters the genetic material of humans or animals consuming it and mingles in totally uncontrolled ways with all plants once GMO crops are grown outdoors. Once mingled, there is no one on the planet who can say with certainty what the short or long term consequences of that mingling will be. All independently conducted science, however, shows, often to the surprise of the scientist, devastating health and environmental consequences.

Four years ago the FDA promised stricter oversight of GMO plants. None of the oversight promised has occurred and the new rule opens even wider holes in any regulatory restrictions despite the strong desire of US and global consumers to avoid GMO foods through labeling and selection. The new rule will make that virtually impossible:

* Biotech companies will assess their OWN crops to determine whether USDA SHOULD regulate them. Since the criteria are loose, open and subjective, the outcome is assured: no regulation.
* Biotech companies will be able to grow UNTESTED crops without any USDA oversight whatsoever, making, according to the USDA contamination of conventional and organic crops with untested GMO material “more likely”.
* This contamination does not bother USDA regulators since the new rule allows “Low Level Presence” of GMO material in BOTH conventional “organic” food, feed and seed.
* Outdoor cultivation of pharmaceutical-producing and industrial material-producing crops is allowed without supervision or restriction. The cross pollination of other plants, weeds, feed and food crops with this material is assured. The consequences include drugs and industrial chemicals ending up in our food and animal feed.
* The rule virtually assures that the DNA to produce these materials will wind up in our own DNA and that of the animals we eat. Both consumer and food industry groups have urged controls on this practice, but the USDA is determined to ignore that input.
* USDA refuses to propose any controls on GMO plants which require or tolerate high levels of pesticide or herbicide use. Insects and weeds both adapt to the presence of these toxins and become resistant to them. Chemical resistant GMO DNA mixes with the genetic material of weeds and insects: an epidemic of super weeds and pests has already resulted.
* In a move to vitiate State and local authorities from protecting farmers and consumers from these regulations, a last minute “correction” bars state or local regulation of GE crops more protective than its own weak rule.

The USDA is following the lead of the FDA by opening new loopholes which make consumer and environmental protection meaningless. The new rule will be of great benefit to Biotech companies who already have more than free reign to contaminate and then own the entire food stock of the US and beyond.

If you are not content to be exposed to more, and more dangerous, GMO “foods”, drugs and industrial chemicals in your “food” then I urge you to click below to tell the USDA in no uncertain terms that this is unacceptable to you and to millions more just like you.

To get that message across right away, I urge you to also send this to your entire email list with a short note asking each person to take the actions here and forward the mails as well. Nothing short of your health and that of the planet is at stake.

Then click below to urge your members of Congress to support the protective legislation which Rep. Denis Kucinich (D-OH) has introduced which would take the FDA and the USDA in exactly the opposit direction – safety testing, stronger regulation and more oversight by both agencies, plus mandatory labeling.

Health and Freedom Options the FDA Wishes You Did Not Know About !

News flash! Neither the USDA nor the FDA are your friends. They do share a great deal, however: Both care a lot about keeping industry happy and nothing at all about keeping you healthy.

FDA wants you to eat what industry wants you to ingest into your body and then take drugs, lots and lots of them. FDA prohibits the labeling of genetically modified foods (which the Austrian Government has just shown decrease reproductive capacity!) It wants you to eat Codex-approved levels of hormones (no upper limits), pesticides and other dangerous chemicals (many with no upper limits) as well as free radicals from irradiation. When you get sick, either from the drugs or the routinely contaminated foods they allow, then you make the drug side of the house very, very happy!

USDA wants you to eat whatever industry wants you to eat and put dangerous chemicals, untested DNA and hormones into your body. Whether you get sick or not is of literally no concern to them.

Americans are over medicated and under ‘healthed’ according to study after study. Click below to read the two latest studies which, like the many others published around the world, show that the US has the poorest health, and gets the worst health service, in the developed world – often worse than many countries in the developing world.

https://www.staging.healthfreedomusa.com/index.php?p=1440

Then ask yourself whether that is related to the fact that the number of filled drug prescriptions has gone up 72% in 10 years and vaccinations have gone up by an astonishing – and wildly profitable – 12800 percent during the same period.

The number of childhood vaccinations in that time has gone from 11 recommended doses to 78 for girls (75 for boys unless they, too, are vaccinated “against” HPV to “protect” a cervix they do not have) in that time. Starting at age 18, if people follow the recommendations and receive an annual flu sho (and we sincerely hope that they will not), that will add another 63 shots if you live to the expected age of 81 for a woman or 60 if you are a man and die at 78 as predicted. That’s right: a lifetime average of 141 shots for women and 135 for men IF you do not accept any other vaccinations.

FDA Does Not Want You to Know How
To Control Your Health

Take Silver, For Example. Please do!

FDA does not want you to have Nano Silver in your medicine chest. It is a nutrient traditionally effective against every pathogenic (disease causing organism) against which it has ever been tested and has no known side effects. It eliminates the need for most antibiotics and would, singlehandedly, reverse the cataclysmic problem of drug resistant bacteria and other disease agents which are a huge and looming threat to all of us. Instead of embracing a solution which has an enormous margin of safety, is hugely inexpensive compared to drugs and can be used without a prescription, the FDA has attacked silver products for decades. They do not want you to know that published studies show that it is effective against the H5N1 Virus (among all the others it kills). Click below to lay in a supply before the drug-cartel, through its government arm, succeeds in getting it off the market.

www.nutronix.com/ naturalsolutions – > Products tab >

While there are many silvers on the market, only nano silver has been shown friendly to the beneficial bacteria in your body, an essential part of your immune system. And your purchase supports the Natural Solutions Foundation!

Speaking of support, times are tough but we need to keep going forward together, as this email makes clear. The other side is not out of money! They are continuing their disastrous disregard of our well-being in order to take care of their own bottom line. Both the USDA and the FDA are totally controlled by industry interests. Big Pharma sales are down about 13% because of the economic downturn so they are using regulatory powers to try to kill health products.

We rely upon your support.

Here’s how you can give it:

1. Give GMO-free, Chemical-free, Shade-Grown Valley of the Moon(TM) Coffee to evey coffee drinker on your gift list – and get some for yourself. This product is the first output of our Valley of the Moon(TM) Eco Demonstration Project in the beautiful, bountiful Chiriqui Highlands of Panama. We are teaching farmers how to grow coffee without chemicals so Valley of the Moon(TM) coffee is good for you, good for the workers and good for the planet. That’s why it is certified as a “Friendly Food” by the Natural Solutions Foundation.

By the way, we say, “Chemical Free” rather than “Organic” because we believe that the term “organic” should be reserved for products which are certified organic. We will be applying for that status next year after our coffee crop is in. No chemicals have been used on this land for at least 5 years. Everything we are using on the land and the coffee crop is totally safe and meets or exceeds organic standards. We could use the word “organic” but we feel it would be misleading since certification lies in the future but I give you my word that the Valley of the Moon(TM) coffee exceeds organic standards by a wide margin.

You can purchase for yourself or as a gift here:

2. Visit our two online stores, www.Organics4U.org and www.NaturalSolutionsMarketplace.org . they are designed to make products and services available to you that we believe in and that we hope you will enjoy. If you have a product or service that you want to share with our enormous readership, please send an email to Drew at NSFmarketplace@gmail.com with “Marketplace” in the subject line. Every purchase supports your well-being and health, the wellness industry (you can see from the first item in this newsletter how serious the attacks on the supplement industry are) and supports the Natural Solutions Foundation at the same time.

3. Donate to the Natural Solutions Foundation. All US tax payers receive a 100% tax deduction for the amount of your donation. As the economy turns down, the drug companies will fight harder to kill supplements, sell hormones and drugs. The Biotech companies will fight harder to sell their dangerous “food” and “feed”.

US Health Care is Nothing Short of a Dismal Drugged Disaster

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

On November 18, 2008 the NY Times published the report of a health scorecard entitled “The Wrong Place to Be Chronically Ill” which follows. It once again documents, as does every survey of international health and health cost, that the US reliance on prescription medication rather than on healthy food, healthy life style, exercise and supplements, is a national disaster of the first water.
Only clean food, high potency natural supplements and nutrients and a huge pile of sceptical salt about what the FDA and the pharmaceutical industry, through its gullable spokespeople, uninformed doctors, will change that along with one more ingredient: common sense!

Eating GMO food is disastrous for your health. Organic food and supplements are essential. Go to www.Organics4U.org to stop using nutrients from GMO sources! Get hold of some high quality nano silver and stop using antibiotics. Check out http://www.Nutronix.com/naturalsolutions and go to the Products tab, then the Silver solutions button. Your health will thank you! Growing whatever you can and making contact with local growers to make sure you know what is in your food.

It’s your choice. Act now to make your life a healthy one! And act now to donate (https://www.staging.healthfreedomusa.com/index.php?page_id=189) to the Health Freedom organization that is there for you, the Natural Solutions Foundation, www.HealthFreedomUSA.org.

The Wrong Place to Be Chronically Ill

Tuesday 18 November 2008
The New York Times | Editorial

Chronically ill Americans suffer far worse care than their counterparts in seven other industrial nations, according to a new study by the Commonwealth Fund, a New York-based foundation that has pioneered in international comparisons. It is the latest telling evidence that the dysfunctional American health care system badly needs reform.

The results of the study, published by the respected journal Health Affairs, belie the notion held by many American politicians that health care in this country is the best in the world. That may be true at a handful of pre-eminent medical centers, but it is hardly true for the care provided to a huge portion of the population.

The Commonwealth Fund’s survey of 7,500 patients in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Britain and the United States focused on patients who suffered from at least one of seven chronic conditions: hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, lung problems, cancer or depression.

The care they received in this country – or more often did not receive – ought to be a cause for shame. More than half of the American patients went without care because of high out-of-pocket costs. They did not visit a doctor when sick, skipped a recommended test or treatment or failed to fill a prescription. The uninsured suffered most, but even 43 percent of those who had insurance all year skipped care because of costs.

Americans also were most likely to report wasting time because their care was so poorly organized. About a third reported that medical records and test results were not available when needed or that tests were duplicated unnecessarily. A third experienced a medical error, such as being given the wrong medication or test results. Some 40 percent found it very difficult to get after-hours care without going to an emergency room.

The United States did comparatively well in some areas, such as providing relatively prompt access to specialists and clear instructions to patients leaving the hospital. But the nation’s overall performance was abysmal.

By contrast, Dutch patients reported far more favorable experiences with their health care system, largely because the Netherlands provides universal coverage (through individual mandates and private health insurance), a strong primary care system and widespread use of electronic medical records. It should be possible to achieve the same level of performance here.

GM Files: FrankenFoods To Make You Sterile

Thursday, November 13th, 2008

Think about it for a moment: unlabeled GMOs with medical consequences, including, as in this case, sterility, constitutes the force feeding of industrial toxins to a global population. You might call it forced drugging, and you would be right.

One would tend to assume that food sold to consumers would not have intended or unintended medical consequences like birth defects, cancer, auto immune diseases, infertility or sterility. One would be wrong. Since FDA and USDA do not conduct, or examine, safety studies except once very early on in the approval process when they review preliminary safety testing provided by the corporation developing the product (!), these “foods” (Frankenfoods, really) are launched into the market place with neither safety testing nor review of safety testing by our supposed “watchdog” agencies.

Natural Solutions Foundation believes in your health freedom. Apparently, the FDA and USDA do not. If they did, they would not permit dangerous, untested and unlabeled (that is, forbidden to be labeled!) GMO “food” to be sold in the US as “food” (for people) and “feed” (for animals who are, ultimately, eaten by people). You see, we believe that your right to safe, unadulterated foods and it also includes your right to have children if you want to, and grandchildren, too.

Seven months ago we noted that a little-known genetic bioengineering firm in California, Epicyte, announced the development of genetically engineered corn which contained a spermicide which made the semen of men who ate it sterile in 2001. At the time Epicyte had a joint venture agreement to spread its technology with DuPont and Syngenta, two of the sponsors of the Svalbard Doomsday Seed Vault. Epicyte was since acquired by a North Carolina biotech company. It was astonishing to learn that Epicyte had developed its spermicidal GMO corn with research funds from the US Department of Agriculture, the same USDA which, despite worldwide opposition, continued to finance the development of Terminator technology, now held by Monsanto.

Every independent scientific review of safety of which I am aware documents the serious, potentially lethal, and now, sterility-inducing impact of these “foods”. One has to wonder whether the Epicyte human sterility gene is part of the NK 603xMon810 genome now since its impact is sterility.

Whether it is or not, what is clear is that the consumption of the unlabeled “foods” or their by products and derivatives poses as great a threat to humanity as the ever-promised Avian Flu Pandemic. Eat them at your own risk. And get involved to pressure your Congressional members to become co-sponsors of, and strongly support, the 2 excellent bills before Congress now which would require safety testing and labeling of all GMO foods. Click here (http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=25920) to send you strong message to Congress for your food rights.


Genetically Modified “foods” do not have names. They have numbers

Real food has names, usually less than 3 syllables. GMO “foods” and “feeds” hide behind initials and numbers like the biochemicals they are: e.g., NK 603 and Mon810. Those are genetically engineered corn types permitted for human and animal food in the US and the EU and elsewhere in the world. Neither corn (or “maize” as it is also called) has EVER been properly tested for safety by an independent governmental agency. No safety review of independent, non-industry studies has ever been done by a government agency anywhere in the world. Independent studies have never been commissioned by any government agency before these foods were approved, strictly on the basis of corporate assurances that these “foods” were safe in the US, Europe and elsewhere.

The reality is that when independent studies are conducted on these “foods”, they are neither safe nor benign.

The FDA thinks it is perfectly fine to take those rights, and your posterity, away from you without your knowledge or consent. By allowing genetically modified (GMO) “foods” which are known to reduce fertility in animals (we are, reproductively speaking, biologically similar to the animals being tested) and forbidding labeling of GMO foods or ingredients, the FDA says that foods like NK603 and Mon810 are acceptable to them. Is the truth that this is part of a long-stanidng, wide-ranging depopulation program using multiple ways to eliminate your ability to reproduce?

Who cares? You do, and so do we.

Thanks for your continuing support. Without it, the Natural Solutions Foundation could not continue its important work.

Genetically-engineered food: potential threat to fertility
Study shows that genetically engineered maize affects reproductive health in mice

Vienna, Austria, 11 November 2008 – A study published today by the Austrian government identified serious health threats of genetically engineered (GE) crops. In one of the very few long-term feeding studies ever conducted with GE crops, the fertility of mice fed with GE maize was found to be severely impaired, with fewer offspring being produced than by mice fed on natural crops. Considering the severity of the potential threat to human health and reproduction, Greenpeace is demanding a recall of all GE food and crops from the market, worldwide. Of course, that would mean changing the happy approval of Codex of all “foods” genetically modified and all GMO “feeds” as well. We’ll need your strong support to build the coalition to mass the muscle to reopen those issues. It can be done, of course, but we need your help.

Your only protection on your table and in your cupboards right now, of course, is to eat, grow and source organic food. Only organic food. Too expensive? What is your health worth and, if you are of child bearing age, the ability to have children or have your children have children? A few dollars more in food per week? Probably. If you can’t afford the expense, start doing intensive gardening in a corner of your apartment, on your patio or in a small corner of your garden. Foot Square Gardening references abound on the internet, at your library and in your book store. Take a look. Even in the winter it’s pretty simple to do indoors. Don’t delay, though. The damage from these Frankenfoods is cumulative.

The study, sponsored by the Austrian Ministries for Agriculture and Health, was presented today at a scientific seminar in Vienna, Austria. Prof. Dr. Jürgen Zentek, Professor for Veterinary Medicine at the University of Vienna and lead author of the study, summarised the findings: Mice fed with GE maize had less offspring in the third and fourth generations, and these difference were statistically significant. Mice fed with non-GE maize reproduced more efficiently. This effect can be attributed to the differences in the food source.

“GE food appears to be acting as a birth control agent, potentially leading to infertility – if this is not reason enough to close down the whole biotech industry once and for all, I am not sure what kind of disaster we are waiting for,” said Dr. Jan van Aken, GE expert at Greenpeace International. “Playing genetic roulette with our food crops is like playing Russian roulette with consumers and public health”.

The Austrian scientists performed several long-term feeding trials with laboratory mice over a course of 20 weeks. One of the studies was a so-called reproductive assessment by continuous breeding (RACB) trial, in which the same parent generation gave birth to several litters of baby mice. The parents were fed either with a diet containing 33% of a GE maize variety (NK 603 x MON 810), or a closely related non-GE variety. A decrease in litter size and weight was found to be statistically significant in the third and fourth litters in the GE-fed mice compared to the control group.

Owned by Monsanto, the GE maize variety tested in this study is tolerant to a herbicide and resistant to certain insect pests. It has been approved for planting and food use in a variety of countries, including the US, Argentina, Japan, Philippines and South Africa. In Mexico and the European Union(1), it is approved for food and feed use.

“This study is yet another example that the food and feed safety of GE crops and food cannot be guaranteed. The reproductive toxicity of this GE maize was a totally unexpected result, but regulators around the world had considered this GE maize variety as safe as non-GE varieties – a potentially devastating error,” said Dr. van Aken.

Notes to Editors:

(1) In 2005, the European Food Safety Agency EFSA gave a green light for this variety. Without conducting any independent studies and just relying on Monsanto’s data, EFSA wrote it “considers it unlikely that NK603 x MON810 maize will have any adverse effect on human and animal health”. This exemplifies how flawed and ill-designed the European risk assessment for GE crops is.

Don’t Donate If You Want Big Pharma To Succeed at Killing Natural Health Options

Recently a reader wrote to me the following,

“Is it true that you charge $19.95 for your Codex eBook (https://www.staging.healthfreedomusa.com/index.php? page_id=205)? I am on a limited income and want information that I do not have to pay for.” MK

Here is my response:

“Yes, there is a charge for our eBooks. But we make huge amounts of information available for free including our Health Freedom Blog (second button on the left on our home page, www.HealthFreedomUSA.org, and our Health Freedom eAlerts.
Every page on the website, and there are thousands of them, is free and if you go to www.NaturalSolutionsMedia.tv or www.Youtube.com/naturalsolutions.com you will find many, many resources.

We want all of our supporters, rich or poor, young or old, to be able to have information, share it with others and take action.

Real Advocates Have Real Expenses

We have real expenses, though, regardless how charitable our intentions are so donations (https://www.staging.healthfreedomusa.com/index.php?page_id=189) are urgently needed.

Let’s fact it: we SHOULD have been at the vitally important meeting in South Africa this month when the Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses (CCNFSDU) met earlier this month. We have worked for years to build a coalition of the unwilling, those countries which do not want GMOs in their food supply, especially unlabeled.

We could not attend because we did not have the money to buy the tickets, pay for the hotel rooms, for meals, etc.

So the world of people who want health (and food) freedom lost a great deal.

Small contributions mount up if there are a lot of them. Big contributions help, of course. But if you are able to give even a dollar a month, you should. Go to our home page and click on the “donate” tab and then either use credit cards, pay pal or send a check. But do it.

Most people (that’s 96% of 186,000+) people do not take this responsibility seriously. They they wonder why we cannot do everything they -and we – think needs to be done. Hmmm. Maybe it is because we are understaffed and severely underfunded while the other side has more money than God to accomplish its tasks.

Do you buy coffee? Buy it from Natural Solutions Foundation. Do you buy vitamins? Buy them from Natural Solutions Foundation. Do you buy magnets? Buy them from the Natural Solutions Foundation. Do you rent movies? Rent them from Natural Solutions Foundation on our Home Page. Do you have small balances left over on your gift cards? Donate those small amounts to the Natural Solutions Foundation.

There is a reason that we ask people to do these things – it is so we can fight the health freedom battle effectively.

Don’t give anything and there won’t be anything to protect your health and your health freedom.

And if you cannot donate or purchase, that’s fine, too, as long as you are organizing your email list and your community.

The information is out there. Each and every one of us has a role to play. Are you playing yours? If you are, congratulations, and thanks.

And if you are not, why not?

Yours in health and freedom,
