Your Hair Dye could Kill you

Your Hair Dye could Kill you

The use of popular hair dyes can produce extreme allergic reactions, and may even kill you – even if you have used the same hair dye for years with little or no ill-effects. In one recent case, a woman in the UK, Julia McCabe, last week fell into a coma following her use of L’Oreal Preferences hair dye. “Mr Miller said his daughter had dyed her hair regularly for several years and had used the L’Oreal product in the past. He believes she did a skin test before using the dye.” A month earlier, a teenaged girl,...

Mouse-Pig & Super-Fish Seek Approval for Human Consumption

“Here I come to save the daaaay! I’m not very mighty, I don’t fly (yet), but my DNA has been spliced with mouse DNA which means that my poop now has less environment-harming phosphorous. This allows me and my cohorts to continue being stacked in barns to the brim – no dietary changes necessary! Soon my mutated flesh will be a tender morsel on your plate but you won’t even know it’s me.” Enter Enviropig! And his trusty side-kick Super Fish! Genetically mutated plants and animals always start out as some...

U.S. Still Using Toxic Dyes Left Out of U.K. Goods

U.S. Still Using Toxic Dyes Left Out of U.K. Goods

In a never ending pursuit for profit, American companies like Kellog, Kraft and General Mills continue to use dangerous food dyes despite reports linking the chemicals to some types of cancer and causing childhood problems like hyperactivity, bed-wetting, and more.

This table isn’t about genetically-modified organisms (GMOs). Don’t eat GMOs! There are many studies showing that foods with GMOs are unsafe to eat. This table will not show the GMO content at all! Most commercial corn and soy are GMOs. Be wary of corn- and soy-containing commercial (non-organic) foods like tofu, popcorn, corn sweeteners, corn meal, corn oil, soy oil, soy protein, and dextrose. As you know, I am very concerned about the usage of excitotoxins in prepared foods as well. You’ll have to read about them elsewhere....

How Frankenfoods Are Contaminating Our Food Supply – and Your Body! Do stay away from GMO foods, soy and corn being the most highly problematic. Here is an excerpt from an article by Suzanne Somers about our contaminated food supply. As the saying goes, “We are what we eat” – but considering what we eat nowadays, that’s not saying much.

Rest, Renew and Reflect on Your Health!

Rest, Renew and Reflect on Your Health!

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest. ~ Confucius Reflection is the process in which an image or idea comes back to us, such as looking in a mirror, rethinking an event, or reviewing an idea. We have the opportunity to take a closer view and reconsider our original thinking. The new year is a perfect opportunity to reflect and use that knowledge as a catalyst for change. Acupuncture and Oriental medicine can help...
