Natural Products Association Issues Disinfo Announcement over Dietary Supplements and Swine Flu (opinion)
(NaturalNews) The natural products industry leaders are engaged in a clever "disinfo" campaign to brainwash people into thinking that herbs and nutritional products are useless for defending against swine flu. Today, the Natural Products Association (NPA), Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) and the American Herbal Products Association (AHPA) took part in issuing a joint warning against any "natural" remedies that are being promoted as ways to prevent or treat H1N1 influenza. Their joint statement is classic disinformation, stating, "We are unaware of any scientific data supporting the use of dietary supplements to treat swine flu." That's because according to health authorities in the U.S., there is no such thing as any dietary supplement that treats any disease whatsoever. If any dietary supplement were found to treat a disease, it would shift categories to become a "drug," not a "dietary supplement."
Don't let Monsanto take this one away.
Dear Organic Consumer, Last year this time, you were pouring your heart and soul into winning the GMO labeling battle in California. So was I.
Grandma's Parasite Cleanse & Herbal Remedies Guide
Grandma's Parasite Cleanse & Herbal Remedies Guide Preventing parasites is always a goal, but since they are so small and clever, the best parasite cleanse program to follow is a periodic herbal cleanse of the whole body, which is designed to expel them along with the toxic material on which they may have been feeding. If you know exactly what you are fighting, there are certain herbal parasite cleanse programs that particularly target a parasite species more than others. Some general rules to follow to prevent these common problems are to cook all meat (especially fish, shellfish and pork), wear shoes in infected areas (especially around public toilet areas) and keep your clothes clean, hands and fingernails washed.

Grandma's Tapeworm Amish Home Remedy
It's rare to hear about a good home remedy that can extract a tapeworm, larvae and eggs from your intestine, especially one that is non-evasive and safe. Before taking medication or getting talked into an operation it's worth trying. This home remedy was passed down to me from an Amish Grandma that I have grown to trust her wisdom over the years. I realize this home remedy seems a bit bizarre and dealing with a tapeworm at all is a little gross but it isn't very expensive to try and even if it doesn't work it still has some nice benefits. What is a tapeworm?

The Power of the Fork – Part Two
In my last blog, I explored how your diet affects not only your personal health but the health of the soil, water, air, and global climate. What we choose to eat determines whether or not we deplete nature’s capital, as well as our human capital, the richness that comes from a healthy, vibrant community.

Top athletes and those ‘dead-serious’ about enhancing their health and fitness never stop searching for and demanding better ways to improve their performance and overall well-being. I certainly can relate to this drive and attitude because I share it as well. I last seriously competed when I ran a 2:50 marathon in the early 80s.
The Great American Genocide
We’ve reached the point that any person with critical thinking skills can no longer deny that we are being deliberately poisoned. Nearly everything that is reasonably priced to eat or drink is actually toxic. The glowing health claims and the stamps of approval from the EPA, the FDA, and USDA, are fraudulent smoke and mirrors – people are actually being deceived into spending money to purchase the substances that will lead to disease and demise. A chemical warfare has been declared on us.
