"The Inflammation-Free Diet Plan" by Monica Reinagel

I was asked this morning if bread and rice were inflammatory. In looking for evidence to provide I referred to a couple of sites I thought you might find interesting.

Per http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/cereal-grains-and-pasta/5722/2 white rice is moderately inflammatory as is white bread. Sugar is strongly inflammatory and provides virtually zero nourishment.

Inflammation causes pain, cardiovascular disease risk and is responsible for speeding up the aging process. Monica Reinagel's book "The Inflammation-Free Diet Plan" explains how the foods you eat can make make inflammation worse or reduce inflammation to improve your health risks and help you to feel better and lose weight.

If you are the sort of person who likes to do things by hand, there is a great site where you can check out the inflammation rating and nutrient content of a great many foods. It is http://nutritiondata.self.com

If you have too little time for that, here is a book that will simplify your inflammation-free meal choices.

Farmer Debunks Corporate Propaganda Against Proposed Law to Label Genetically Modified Food

I've been a farmer for more than 40 years. While I no longer live or farm in California, I do co-manage 120 acres of farmland in Vermont, and I know that a GMO labeling law passed in California will have widespread implications for consumers and farmers in every state in the country. As a farmer who has experience in both conventional and organic farming, I’m compelled to address the anti-labeling campaign’s so-called 'concerns' for farmers and consumers.

Edible dispersant could provide more eco-friendly way to fight oil spills

Some people believe that there’s no problem that peanut butter, chocolate and whipped cream can’t solve. These people could be onto something with news that a team of researchers has developed a new, safer oil dispersant that uses edible ingredients found in the aforementioned trio of treats. The new dispersant could save the lives of thousands of birds and animals caught in environmental catastrophes.

These Companies Oppose GMO Labeling

The companies below have collectively put up 24 million $ to stop GM labelling in California.

It is clear that they all contain Genetically Modified Organisms and they do not want people to know.

Some of these companies are here in Australia and New Zealand.

We need to send a message to these companies – with our shopping dollars.

People have a right to know what they are eating, drinking, wearing on their skin and having injected into them.

The History of Medical Tyranny with Dr. Peter Glidden

Some quotes from the video by Dr Peter Glidden.

The treatments doctors administer for chronic disease DO NOT WORK!

Your MD is the number one cause of death in America at present. 780,000 Americans die a year from medical admistered treatments. More than cancer, more than heart disease, more than any other single cause of death.

The medical dostore is not trained in medical science. He is training in a very small sub-section of it - reductionistic, allopathic, pharmaceutical medicine.

Your MD does not believe your body has the ability to fix itself.

If you are drinking fluoridated water you are being dumbed down.

Small Farmers of Heritage-Breed Pigs Under Attack in Michigan.

There are a few ways you, too, can get involved to express your opinion and help get this ISO rescinded. Remember this impacts not only the state of Michigan, but could also set a worrisome precedent that affects the rest of the United States as well. FTCLDF explained:

“There are reports that a number of other states are looking to see whether Michigan DNR gets away with enforcing this ISO because, if they do, other states will be trying to implement the exact same thing.”

To get involved and take a stand to protect your right to food freedom and small farmer’s rights:

Sign the online petition opposing the ISO
Send a fax to Governor Snyder asking him to order MDNR to rescind the ISO
Follow up with phone calls to let Governor Snyder know that we will not let up until justice is rendered and the ISO rescinded (517-335-7858)

Something to Ponder

A German Protestant clergyman, confined to a concentration camp in the Second World War, said of the Nazis:

First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came for the socialists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me.
