Without Obama responding, questions will arise as to whether the drought is desired, along with the loss of food, farmers and farmland. </span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px Arial; min-height: 12.0px"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">

<br />
<br />While the The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) recognition of the human right to food remains in place, the definition of food itself has been hollowed out. Some countries have created a new legal definition of food. It does not include any reference to the core aspects of food - sustaining life.
<br />
<br />Food is defined as "any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for the body. It is usually of plant or animal origin, and contains essential nutrients, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, or minerals. The substance is ingested by an organism and assimilated by the organism's cells in an effort to produce energy, maintain life, and/or stimulate growth."
<br />
<br />In the legal definition, the essence food - what is in it, what it does - is not considered, only what is done to it or with it. These countries define food as "any item that is to be processed, partially processed, or unprocessed for consumption." Perhaps in recognition of the removal from food of what makes it food rather than any other material, the word "food stuffs" is used, which include any substance to be ingested by humans. </span></span><strong><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">This could be "stuff" insufficient to sustain life or even antithetical to it.</span></span></strong><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> </span></span></div><div class="article-body" style="color: rgb(26, 53, 79); padding-top: 1.5em; padding-right: 12px; padding-bottom: 12px; padding-left: 12px; line-height: 1.4em; "><a href="http://www.sott.net/articles/show/230216-Corporations-Have-Redefined-Food-as-Stuff-"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">To read more ....</span></span></a></div></span>yupfarminghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03720137809920320673noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-303065698095669660.post-37789906382949281752011-08-17T19:52:00.003-04:002011-08-17T19:55:56.950-04:00OUR LAND - COLLATERAL FOR THE NATIONAL DEBT<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 8px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 8px; font-size:xx-large;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: normal; font-family:Times;font-size:medium;"><p><span style="font-family:Georgia;">Derry Brownfield

On our very first visit he was explaining the World Bank, the International Monetary fund and how the world bankers planned on collateralizing the world debt with land. Not just the U.S. national debt, but the “WORLD” debt. A listener sent me a copy of a report of the FOURTH WORLD WILDERNESS CONGRESS, which was held in Denver in 1987. Over 1500 people from sixty countries were told that wilderness lands were to protect the reindeer, the spotted owl and other endangered species. Ninety percent of the group consisted of conservationists, ecologists, government and United Nations bureaucrats. The other ten percent were world banking heavyweights, such as David Rockefeller of Chase Manhattan Bank, London banker Edmund de Rothschild and the Secretary of the U.S. Treasury, James Baker, who gave the keynote address.

Was it appropriate for WHO to take advice from experts who had declarable financial and research ties with pharmaceutical companies producing antivirals and influenza vaccines? Why was key WHO guidance authored by an influenza expert who had received payment for other work from Roche, manufacturers of oseltamivir, and GlaxoSmithKline, manufacturers of zanamivir?

Marks<div><br /></div><div>Ironically, there is much to be gained from the devastation of the US economy. Money has proved a false god. Others control it and buy democracy with it - courts, Congress, presidents, agencies. Corporate advertising wears thin. Is the new car model in the ad fun to drive past shuttered businesses and homeless people on the street?<div> <br /></div><div>A Great Age of Greed was sold to everyone via corporate media - want more, remodel yet again, be cool, faster, faster. Women who forwent extra income to stay home with their children were made to feel worthless, those going to work encouraged into an orgy of purchases to expiate guilt toward children they'd left. Children were taught to hunger for things, and then for new things. Everything, including sexuality, was commodified. The models for behavior became paid models, the dreams - those engineered by corporate executives with long term plans for how to bilk the society by breaking down all values that defended against excess and greed.</div> <div><br /></div><div>As all that "Trump"ed up excess now collapses into joblessness and homelessness, thanks to bank and corporate theft, what emerges from the rubble? Belief in something larger than ourselves - family, courage, nature, sharing, community, love .... All are there, none having "dropped in value," as material things do. They are the true riches in life, waiting to shelter everyone. </div> <div><br /></div><div>With all that has been lost, people are rethinking jobs dependent on others and what most simply provides enough to support life and many are seeing it comes down to the very basics - the earth and food. When people grow their own food and share with neighbors, they walk away from a money economy controlled by others. They do not pay for food and are not touched by food price rises, and they automatically protect their health. In all this, they become more connected to neighbors and to nature, increasingly skilled in self-sufficiency, and freer as people. This shift to simpler lives has so much offer, an increasing number of people are <a href="http://down---to---earth.blogspot.com/">choosing</a> it voluntarily and finding happiness. </div> <div><br /></div><div>The corporations are aware that if people can grow their own food and look after their health through good food, their investments in agribusiness and processed food and pharmaceuticals will wither. People dependent on supermarkets mean profit and as well as ill health and that in itself is worth a fortune. And people raising their own food, closely connected to neighbors, and with a strong sense of community values, are not the passive and ignorant consumers corporations depend on for sales. </div> <div><br /></div><div>Corporations have used advertising to dress up <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eKYyD14d_0">dangerous products</a> and hide the reality of the food industry. They have also done all they could to suppress <a href="http://www4.dr-rath-foundation.org/PHARMACEUTICAL_BUSINESS/laws_of_the_pharmaceutical_industry.htm">knowledge</a> that <a href="http://yupfarming.blogspot.com/2010/10/dawn-of-new-medical-age-and-collapse-of.html">natural substances have been curing disease after disease</a> (with thousands of <a href="http://www.tomlevymd.com/downloads/VC.NZ.Sept.2010.pdf">studies</a> to back them up), and have <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/021791.html">raided</a> those providing natural substances and <a href="http://www.ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm">imprisoned</a> doctors for attempting to provide cures, for the pharmaceutical industry's investment and the power based on it would be destroyed by cures.

Human beings have learned they are being made sick from toxic corporate products (e.g. food, drugs, vaccines, pesticides, hormones, antibiotics, housing materials, plastics) and are sick of it. They understand that health comes from clean food which comes <b>only</b> from clean and humane sources - all of them non-corporate. Corporations offer unclean, unsafe food and sickness, so people are increasingly buying directly from farmers and growing their own food. Corporate profit has no place in either. Rather than allow themselves to be bypassed, the only option the corporations have is to remove all other options (the decent ones) from the public, leaving only corporate products, which, in medicine, they are pushing through <a href="http://www.wodarg.de/english/2948146.html">faked pandemics</a> and behind the scenes state legislators to impose mandates.</div> <div><br /></div><div>From the public already robbed of jobs and homes, the corporations are set to steal the very basics of life now - food and health. They have arranged to end access to a known (but suppressed) cures for cancer and other diseases, and to safe food itself. The "food safety" bills - S 510 and S 3767 - would do both. </div> <div><br /></div><div>The public is on the cusp of a chance for a full and happy life of good food and assured health, and the freedom both imply. Or they face corporate control over their lives and <a href="http://www.ceri.com/ed-rath.htm">premature deaths</a>. </div> <div><br /></div><div>With such a clear alternative and so much good to be had, perhaps people will begin informing every possible person they know, so each person can in turn reach hundreds of others, and everyone can call and then <b>continue</b> calling Senators and emailing Senators (on their own websites) and faxing them. </div> <div><br /></div><div><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FF0000;">No one should solely rely on organizations and "clicks" to do this work for them because many organizations that may sound "pro-people" receive funding from the very corporations and bankers behind these bills. Using organizations' "click system" is only all safe if it comes on top of each person's personal efforts to reach as many friends and family and colleagues as possible, and then to reach Senators on one's own.</span></i></div> </div>yupfarminghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03720137809920320673noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-303065698095669660.post-54092978007922231622010-10-17T14:26:00.009-04:002011-03-03T14:17:59.686-05:00The Dawn of A New Age in Medicine: Physics Offers A Unified Field Theory of All Disease<div class="gmail_quote"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">by T H Reeme</span></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><span style="line-height:19px;"><p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0.5em;margin-left:0px;line-height:1.5em"> </p><p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0.5em;margin-left:0px;line-height:1.5em"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">For more than 75 years, a remarkable thing has been occurring in medicine - rapid and full cures of disease after disease by a single treatment. This major revolution in medical thought should have been heralded as the most wonderful possible news - other than world peace - in mankind's history. For we are now at the dawn of moment in medical science that is so immense in its implications it has never even be fantasized - this astounding renaissance in medical thinking frees human beings from fear of all diseases. </span></span></p> <p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0.5em;margin-left:0px;line-height:1.5em"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0.5em;margin-left:0px;line-height:1.5em"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">In the simplest terms, physics has been applied to biologic science, offering a theoretical understanding of the rapid and full cures that had already been occurring in practice. Seeing through the endless complexity of diseases and disorders which the old paradigm has generated and still continues to add to, along with an even greater complexity of treatments, physics has yielded a single common denominator true for all disease, cancers, toxins, infections and viruses. Health is based on electron flow. Diseases, toxins, infections, viruses, all deplete that flow. The more serious the disease threat, the greater the depletion. With that common denominator, physics could support the idea of a single effective treatment, and a description of how it cures - anything that can deliver electrons in a sufficiently high enough concentration to where it is needed in the body, can neutralize any disease (any loss of electrons). </span></span></p> <p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0.5em;margin-left:0px;line-height:1.5em"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0.5em;margin-left:0px;line-height:1.5em"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Vitamin C, particularly in IV concentrations, had been curing people, and physics allied with biology has now made it clear why.

There is a sense it is "just" this drug or "just" that vaccine, and a safe and effective one will be out shortly. </div> <div><br /></div><div>But a irrefutable and permanent indictment of both has now arrived.</div><div><br /></div><div><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Gdm7AS8Qa-s?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Gdm7AS8Qa-s?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></div><div><br /></div> <div>A great revolution of medical science is in process, sweeping the scattered and great confusion of diseases and their varied treatments into simple order, thanks to physics. Rather than look at diseases as distinct entities needing distinct treatments, physics looked instead at what divides health, disease, or death, and it is electron flow. Health is based on a strong electron flow. Diseases, toxins, viruses, and infections have one thing in common, they deplete electrons - the more serious the disorder, the greater the loss of electrons. Death can be measured by no flow of electrons. </div> <div><br /></div><div>Orthodox medicine' with its panoply of drugs and vaccines disparages vitamins and minerals (nutrients) as treatments for disease, treating them either as worthless or dangerous, despite the millennia of their use by other cultures and despite university <a href="http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/07/060731113333.htm" target="_blank">studies</a> now showing their efficacy. But this on-going argument is now over. Physics has declared drugs and vaccines as the losers, for a simple reason: they both deplete electrons from the body, the very definition of a disease state. On the other hand, nutrients all add to electron flow, the definition of health. </div> <div><br /></div><div>The monumental paradigm shift that is now occurring in medicine - reducing all diseases, toxins, infections and viruses down to one central issue - electron loss, has accomplished what the older medical paradigm has failed at. Despite billions for research and studies, despite billions more on products, the older paradigm is swimming in disordered complexity and has failed to find cures for diseases. </div><div><br /></div><div>The new paradigm has already reconfigured the considerable chaos of diseases and medical treatments and brought them into intelligible order. In the process, the tangle of treatments can be unscrambled as well. Because as physics disencumbers medicine from the idea that diseases, toxins, infections and viruses harm in different ways, and offers instead a single common pathway by which they all cause harm, it also dissipates confusion about treatment approaches. It reveals an inescapable division between what is required for health (adding enough electrons to neutralize loss) and what harms (depleting more electrons).</div> <div><br /></div><div>Vaccines and drugs have been failing individually for years (see above). Now, they all fail in common, based on physics. They deplete electron flow. If someone were ill, defined quite clearly now as "loosing electrons," the use of any drugs or vaccines would contribute to greater loss. For doctors or patients, the medical decision becomes plain - drugs and vaccine would be important to avoid, because they subtract from the very process required to get well, increasing electron flow. </div> <div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div> </blockquote></div>yupfarminghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03720137809920320673noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-303065698095669660.post-22762230816746686002010-10-07T19:11:00.012-04:002010-10-14T21:54:52.557-04:00S 510 and Cancer<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:arial;"><div class="gmail_quote"><span style=" border-collapse: collapse; font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span style="border-collapse: separate; "><span style=" color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family:Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;"><small style=" line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style=" ;font-size:small;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal; font-family:arial;"><div class="gmail_quote"><span style=" border-collapse: collapse; font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span style="border-collapse: separate; "><span style=" color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family:Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;"><small style=" line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal; border-collapse: collapse; font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></small></span></span></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"> <span style=" border-collapse: collapse; font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span style="border-collapse: separate; "><span style=" color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family:Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;"><small style=" line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal; border-collapse: collapse; font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">by Jeremy Lasko</span></span></small></span></span></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><span style=" border-collapse: collapse; font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span style="border-collapse: separate; "><span style=" color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family:Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;"><small style=" line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal; border-collapse: collapse; font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></small></span></span></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; "><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></i></span></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><span style=" border-collapse: collapse; "><span style="border-collapse: separate; "><span style=" color: rgb(51, 51, 51); "><small style=" line-height: 1.5em; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal; border-collapse: collapse; "></span></span></small></span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">Intravenous vitamin C's impact on a man in NZ is stunning and wonderful news and it is being heard around the world.

Of the group who had received the measles vaccine (MMR), 33.5% contracted measles. (i)<br /><br /><br />In 1975 Japan raised the minimum age for infant vaccinations to 2 years. As a result, SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, or, crib death) and infant convulsions virtually disappeared. In the 80's, Japan lowered the minimum age back down to 3 months and the rate of SIDS returned to previous levels. (ii)<br /><br /><br />In an Australian study, a group of recruits were immunized for Rubella, and all produced the expected antibodies. When later exposed to the disease, 80% of the recruits contracted it.

Stewart reported in the British Medical Journal that, "of 8,092 cases of whooping cough, 2,940 (36%) were fully immunized, while only 2,424 (30%) were definitely not immunized. (viii)<br /><br /><br />Professor George Dick, speaking at an environmental conference in Brussels in 1973, admitted that in recent decades, 75% of British people who contracted smallpox had been vaccinated. This, combined with the fact that only 40% of children (and a maximum of 10% of adults) had been vaccinated, clearly shows that vaccinated people have a much higher tendency to contract the disease.

One, It is easy to tell if drugs are making people ill or killing them. The public becomes outraged and companies can be sued. But it is impossible to tell with vaccines, other than in the very immediate reactions after them and the CDC often ignores such reactions, as they have done with thousands of parents reporting their children's severe changes in behavior. Harm that occurs outside of that early time frame, and any chronic diseases vaccines may be causing are hard to link to the vaccines. </span></span></p><p style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); white-space: normal !important; word-wrap: break-word; margin-top: 4px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 4px; margin-left: auto; font-family:Arial, Verdana;font-size:8.33333px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); white-space: normal !important; word-wrap: break-word; margin-top: 4px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 4px; margin-left: auto; font-family:Arial, Verdana;font-size:8.33333px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Thus, the battle continues between the CDC and parents insisting that vaccines have damaged their children. Rather than err on the side of caution - or even decency - and remove any item in vaccines that is a known neurotoxin, the CDC puts out a study at the beginning of the flu season, with mercury in those vaccines, asserting again there is no danger. For while the CDC is trying to ignore bizarre cases of narcolepsy and the greatly increased number of febrile seizures in children from the flu/H1N1 vaccine which are being reported abroad already, the issue of autism is much greater. </span></span></p><p style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); white-space: normal !important; word-wrap: break-word; margin-top: 4px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 4px; margin-left: auto; font-family:Arial, Verdana;font-size:8.33333px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); white-space: normal !important; word-wrap: break-word; margin-top: 4px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 4px; margin-left: auto; font-family:Arial, Verdana;font-size:8.33333px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">To admit any link between vaccines and the high level of autism occurring in children, would doom vaccines as their much invested in, ideal universal product. The world would simply not accept vaccines that are linked to causing a dreadful disease, now much fear of pandemics is generated. The bloom would be off the rose of vaccines as scientific miracles.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); white-space: normal !important; word-wrap: break-word; margin-top: 4px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 4px; margin-left: auto; font-family:Arial, Verdana;font-size:8.33333px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); white-space: normal !important; word-wrap: break-word; margin-top: 4px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 4px; margin-left: auto; font-family:Arial, Verdana;font-size:8.33333px;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">That "miracle" is the foundation upon which vaccines rest and brings up the second reason that </span></span><a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/027311_vaccines_drug_companies_medicine.html"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">vaccines are now favored</span></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">.

Particularly disturbing is the spearheading role of the German pharmaceutical corporations within the Codex Commission. Once before in this century, a German pharmaceutical and chemical corporation, I.G. Farben, became responsible for the deaths of millions of people and consequently, was dismantled in 1946 by the Nuremberg Tribunal and split into Bayer, BASF and Hoechst. With the current plans of the German pharmaceutical companies, the predictable dimension of the unnecessary and premature death of millions of people is unavoidable. If the Codex Commission is allowed to obstruct the eradication of heart disease by restricting access to nutritional supplements, more than 12 million people world-wide will continue to die every year from premature heart attacks and strokes. Within the next generation alone, this would result in over 300 million premature deaths, more than in all the wars of mankind together.</span></p> </span></b><p></p><p style=" ;font-family:Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; font-family:arial;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></b></span></p> </span></b></blockquote><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><p><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: normal; font-family:arial;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></b></span></p> <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><p style="display: inline !important; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><a href="http://coto2.wordpress.com/2010/02/03/codex-alimentarius-cohorts-wage-war-against-food/">Codex</a> for the US began on December 31, 2009.

This led to salt being used medically. The healing methods of Hippocrates (460 BC) especially made frequent use of salt. Hippocrates mentions inhalation of steam from salt-water. We know today that the antiinflammatory effects of inhaled salt provide relief from respiratory symptoms (c). Thus, 2000 years ago, Greek medicine had already discovered topical use of salt for skin lesions, drinking salty or mineralized waters for digestive troubles and inhaling salt for respiratory diseases.</span></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Times; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Times; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 10px; "></span></span></span></p><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px; font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;"><a href="http://www.saltinstitute.org/Issues-in-focus/Food-salt-health/Human-salt-requirements">http://www.saltinstitute.org/Issues-in-focus/Food-salt-health/Human-salt-requirements</a></span></span></div><p style="margin-top: 1.4em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.4em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline- vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; color:transparent;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 25px; font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Unless closely supervised by a medical practitioner, low-salt diets can create health problems for vulnerable populations, including</span></p><p style="margin-top: 1.4em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.4em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; color:transparent;"><b style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; color:transparent;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Older persons</span></b></p><p style="margin-top: 1.4em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.4em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; color:transparent;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Since the elderly are more sensitive to the electrolytic balance in their bodies yet often have elevated blood pressure, and since the media carry endless stories about the dangers of hypertension, older persons may not appreciate the risks of reducing salt intakes which can create hyponatremia, low blood sodium levels.

The [raw milk] battle described in these pages is not an isolated case. Armed with $90 billion in taxpayer money each year, the USDA [along with the FDA which is seeking billions more and massive power through S 510, are] waging war against all of us‹consumers, family farmers, farm animals, and the environment. The direct and collateral damage of this war includes rampant water, air, and food pollution; an epidemic of cancer, birth defects, obesity, and hormone disruption; pollution by genetically engineered crops; an unsustainable, massive venting of climate-destabilizing greenhouse gases; pesticide and antibiotic contamination; proliferation of junk food; systematic exploitation of small farmers, farm workers, and slaughterhouse workers; and the dumping of millions of tons of subsidized crops and meat at below the cost of production on developing nations, thereby destroying the livelihoods of millions of small farmers and rural communities. </span></span></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0, 51, 51);line-height:15pxfont-family:Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height:19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0, 51, 51);line-height:15pxfont-family:Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height:19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">It's time to follow the example of the [raw milk dairy farmers and their supporters].
