Iodine is
responsible for the production every hormone
in your body. It is antibacterial, anti-parasitic, antiviral, and a potent
cancer fighter. It is also essential in the
brain development of children and in
stabilizing the metabolism (and body
weight). Most Americans
are iodine deficient. Why are we all iodine
deficient? For many years iodine was added
to bread in generous quantities which
prevented iodine deficiency. Each slice of
bread contained 150 micrograms of iodine,
which was the recommended daily allowance.
Fifty year ago, the average American
consumed about one milligram of iodine daily
with bakery products accounting for about 75% of the total.
However,
in the 1970’s, the food industry decided to
remove iodine from baked goods and replace
the
iodine with bromine. According to
Dr.
Jim Howenstine, “Iodine and bromine
appear similar to the thyroid gland and
bromine easily binds to the thyroid gland’s
receptors for iodine. Bromine, however, is
of no value to the thyroid gland unlike
iodine, and it inhibits the activity of
iodine in the thyroid gland. Bromine also
can cause impaired thinking and memory,
drowsiness, dizziness and irritability. This
substitution of bromine for iodine has
resulted in nearly universal deficiency of
iodine in the American populace.”
According to
Dr. David Brownstein,
“Bromine
is a member of the halide family of
elements, which includes fluorine, chlorine,
and iodine, and the reduced forms, bromide,
chloride, fluoride, and iodide. Iodine is
necessary for the production of thyroid
hormone. And chloride, a common ingredient
of salt, is necessary to keep the fluid
inside and outside of your cells in balance.
But the other two halides, fluoride and
bromine, are both carcinogens and have no
therapeutic value (the idea that fluoride
prevents tooth decay is more marketing hype
than science). I recommend avoiding both.
But here's why bromine is especially a
problem today. In recent years bromine
toxicity has become a near epidemic because
it's so widely used in food and popular home
products. And here's what it does in your
body: Bromide is rapidly absorbed in the
intestinal tract, and because its size and
weight is very close to iodine, the two
compete for binding in the body,
especially in the thyroid gland.
This is an extremely important concept to
understand.
If you build up too
much bromine in your system, it'll crowd out
the iodine, binding to your iodine receptors
and causing your body to release iodine. The
result is an iodine deficiency and a
condition called ‘brominated thyroid.’
Fatigue, headache, weight gain, depression,
feeling cold, and a host of other problems
can follow. And your doctor won't know a
bromine-induced dysfunctional thyroid is the
cause, because standard thyroid tests will
not distinguish between the good iodinated
thyroid and the bad brominated thyroid. In
other words, your thyroid will look normal
. . . when it isn’t!”
Iodine
assists the body in eliminating heavy metals
and toxins (like lead, arsenic, aluminum,
mercury, and fluoride). Interestingly, fluoridated
drinking water actually depletes iodine
absorption. Iodine
deficiency leads to cancers of the breast,
prostate, ovaries, uterus, and thyroid.
Iodine deficiency can also lead to mental
retardation and infertility. So, how can we
correct an iodine deficiency? To correct an
iodine deficiency by taking iodized salt is
not feasible, since you would need 20
teaspoons of iodized salt daily to get
adequate quantities of iodine.
Dr. Jay
Abrahams developed an iodine preparation
(named “Iodoral®”)
to treat iodine deficiency. My wife and I
take this supplement almost daily. Dr.
Abrahams believes that the correct quantity
of iodine needed to maintain sufficient
amounts of iodine in the body is 13
milligrams daily (1 tablet of Iodoral®).
Amazingly, this is 100 times more than the
USRDA for iodine. Japanese women (who eat
lots of seaweed) have the highest average
iodine intake (13.8 milligrams daily) of
women anywhere in the world. They also have
the lowest incidence of breast cancer in the
world. In addition Japan has one of the
lowest incidences of iodine deficiency,
goiter (enlarged thyroid gland), and
hypothyroidism. Iceland, another high iodine
intake country, has low rates of goiter and
breast cancer.
Fish
contains iodine, but you may want to limit
your intake due to high levels of mercury.
However, sardines have such a short life
span they do not get contaminated with
mercury. My suggestion would be to buy cans
of sardines packed in tomato sauce so you
can avoid the trans-fats used in oil packed
sardines.Also,
seaweed contains the most iodine of the sea
vegetables.
And remember that selenium, vitamin C, and
magnesium enhance the effectiveness of
iodine. In the end, you
may still need an iodine supplement like
Iodoral®.

The
following is an inspiring story of a
dedicated father who worked diligently
to help his son overcome autistic
symptoms and live a normal life. This is Abie’s story, as told by my good friend
and Abie’s father,
Dr. Rashid Buttar:
My
son Abie lost his ability to speak
around the age of 14 months. His limited
vocabulary of about 15 or so words
rapidly disappeared within a few weeks
of his third set of inoculations. His
first word, “Abu” (meaning “father” in
Arabic) was the first to disappear. His
mother and I had decided we would not
inoculate our son due to the presence of
thimerosal (ethyl mercury) in
vaccinations, which as mentioned, is
used as a preservative. As I was
considered one of the up-and-coming
leading authorities in metal toxicology,
there was no way my son would be exposed
to mercury. Unbeknownst to me, however,
my now ex-wife had gotten Abie the
regularly scheduled vaccines because she
had listened to the fear-evoking
propaganda fed to her by the
pediatricians and the doctors at the
hospital when she delivered. She had
gone back and gotten the inoculations
the day after Abie first came home at
the ripe age of one day old, and then
had taken him for all his subsequent
vaccines. By the age of two, he was
considered to be “developmentally
delayed.”
Abie
was born on January 25, 1999. In March
1998, ten months prior to his birth and
a month before his conception, I had
made the decision I would not see
autistic and developmentally delayed
patients any longer. Looking back, it’s
clear that God had a specific plan for
me, but I was moving away from the right
path. Now I understand that this
experience was nothing more than God
upping the ante, sending me a clear
message: “You’re going to do what you
were meant to do, what you were created
to do!” It was obvious to me that Abie’s
loss of speech was more than a transient
delay in his development. As time
passed, the pediatricians kept saying
the same thing. “Oh well, there’s
probably nothing there. Just wait. Maybe
he’s a late developer.” But I knew there
was something wrong because he had lost
his ability to speak. It wasn’t that he
never acquired it. He had lost it! A
twelve-to-fifteen-word vocabulary isn’t
much, but it’s still something! And now
those words were all gone.
I
didn’t know what to do. Although I had
treated hundreds of patients with
mercury and lead toxicity, I hadn’t
treated a child this young. I knew from
having treated autistic children in the
past that his behavior was the same,
with the toe walking, hand flapping and
stimming—repetitive stereotypic behavior
commonly found in developmental delays
indicative of decreased sensory
input—and that terrified me. I knew my
son was not supposed to be like this. I
subsequently spent thousands of
hours—many if not most of them late at
night, sometimes all night—studying,
researching, learning, crying and
praying that my son would be returned to
me. I pleaded, begged and threatened
God. I bartered with the Creator,
negotiating my arms or my legs in
exchange for the return of my son.
Throughout this ordeal, Abie always
looked at me with his gentle,
milk-chocolate-colored eyes that would
say, “Don’t worry, Dad, I know you’ll
figure it out.”
Eventually I did. Realizing that mercury
was the most likely culprit, I tested
Abie four times before his challenge
test finally came back positive for
mercury. As a result, I developed an
innovative detoxification method for
him, which up until then had never been
contemplated. Five months after I began
his detoxification, Abie went from no
language to a vocabulary of
five-hundred-plus words. He was
nearly three and a half years old. On May 6,
2004, at the age of five, Abie became
the youngest formal witness to appear
before the U.S. Congress, testifying in
front of the U.S. Congressional
Sub-Committee on Human Rights and
Wellness regarding innovative methods to
treat neurological injuries and the
dangers of mercury in vaccines.
Today, people ask me if he’s “normal.”
It makes me smile to think about it,
because he’s anything but normal. He’s
extraordinary, exceptionally handsome,
surprisingly gentle, ahead of his peers
in school in all subjects and two to
three grade levels ahead in math and
English, an incredible athlete in every
sport he tries, a gifted martial artist
who is a triple-crown state champion and
ranked among the top ten in the world in
both forms and sparring two years in a
row and now working on his second-degree
black belt in Taekwondo. He touches
everyone who meets him, and to know him
is to truly love him. Even the parents
of the children he competes against come
to me to remark on his style, grace and
sportsmanship. It is, without any
exaggeration whatsoever, truly one of my
greatest life blessings to be his
father. At the risk of sounding overly
sentimental, I have at times literally
felt such terrible sadness for the rest
of world because they will never know
the incredible and indescribable feeling
of being Abie’s father.
One
point about heavy metals I believe is
crucial to understand is the
synergistically destructive nature of
this first category of toxins. In
science, a lethal dose (LD) of any
substance is measured as the amount
needed to kill 1 person out of 100. This
measurement is known as LD1. A substance
with an LD17 would be sufficient to kill
17 people out of a 100. If you took an
LD1 of mercury (sufficient mercury to
kill 1 out of a 100) and you took an LD1
of lead (sufficient lead to kill 1 out
of a 100) and put these amounts in the
same 100 people, you would kill all 100
people! That’s how synergistically
dangerous heavy metals are, and
virtually everyone is walking around
with more than one of these toxins in
their bodies.
There
is just one study of which I’m aware
that has been conducted to assess the
synergistic destructive nature of heavy
metals. Done in the 1970’s, it looked at
only mercury, lead and cadmium. So we
really don’t know how destructive some
of these other metals are when combined
with other metals within the same
individual. However, all these
substances are removable through the
proper detoxification protocols. In
time, the body can completely be
cleaned, rebound and rebuild itself,
leaving no room for chronic disease to
begin, as long as you maintain your
body’s lowered burden of toxins.
More
than thirty-five hundred doctors in the
United States address the issue of
chronic heavy-metal toxicity. However,
most of these doctors don’t have any
training in addressing this crucial
issue of heavy metals and fewer than two
hundred of them are board certified
through the American Board of Clinical
Metal Toxicology (ABCMT) in heavy metal
toxicology. I strongly suggest you find
one of these board-certified or
board-eligible doctors at www.ABCMT.org,
the board’s official website. Remember
that the medical hierarchy does not
recognize chronic metal toxicity as an
issue that should be addressed and also
does not recognize ABCMT, an
organization founded almost thirty years
ago. At the time of this writing, I
serve as the chairman of ABCMT.
Much of the following article
was excerpted (with permission)
from an article entitled
“Curing
Lyme Disease With Samento”
written by my good friend and
colleague, Dr. Jim Howenstine.
Lyme Disease
was initially
regarded as an uncommon illness
caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb). The
disease transmission was thought
to be solely by the bite from a
tick infected with this
spirochete. The Bb spirochete is
able to burrow into tendons,
muscle cells, ligaments, and
directly into organs. A classic
bulls-eye rash is often visible
in the early stage of the
illness. Later in the illness
the disease can afflict the
heart, nervous system, joints
and other organs. It is now
realized that the disease can
mimic Amyotrophic Lateral
Sclerosis (ALS aka Lou Gehrig's
Disease), Parkinson’s Disease,
Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Bell’s
Palsy, reflex sympathetic
dystrophy, neuritis, psychiatric
illnesses such as schizophrenia,
chronic fatigue, heart failure,
angina, irregular heart rhythms,
fibromyalgia, dermatitis,
autoimmune diseases such as
scleroderma and lupus, eye
inflammatory reactions, sudden
deafness, SIDS, ADD and
hyperactivity, chronic pain and
many other conditions.
Lyme Disease is now thought to
be the fastest growing
infectious disease in the world.
There are believed to be at
least 200,000 new cases each
year in the U.S. and some
experts think that as many as
one in every 15 Americans is
currently infected (20 million
persons). Dr. Robert Rowen knows
a family where the mother’s
infection spread to 5 of her 6
children
all of whom recovered with
appropriate therapy. It is
difficult to believe that these
children were all bitten by
ticks and seems more plausible
that person to person spread
within the family caused this
problem. Bacteriologist, Dr. Lida Mattman, states “I’m
convinced Lyme disease is transmissible from person to
person”.
Dr. Mattman has been able to
recover live spirochetes of Bb from mosquitoes, fleas, mites, semen, urine,
blood, and spinal fluid.
Dr. Paul Fink, past president of
the American Psychiatric
Association, has acknowledged
that Lyme Disease can mimic
every psychiatric disorder in
the Diagnostic Symptoms Manual
IV. This includes ADD,
antisocial personality, panic
attacks, anorexia nervosa,
autism, and Ausperger’s syndrome. It might be prudent in any
person suddenly found to have
psychiatric symptoms to obtain a
Q-RIBb blood test to exclude
Lyme Disease. A factor
contributing to making Bb so
dangerous is that it can survive
and spread without having a cell
wall. Many valuable
antibiotics kill bacteria by
breaking down the cell wall.
These antibiotics often prove
ineffective against Bb.
One of the most insidious
mimics for Lyme disease is Lou
Gehrig's Disease (ALS).
The neurotoxins released by the
Bb organism are capable of
causing neurologic dysfunction
in the central nervous system
that produces symptoms typical
of ALS. The pathological
hallmark of ALS is motor neuron
degeneration and death. Some patients
with illnesses of many years
duration misdiagnosed as ALS,
MS, and
Parkinson’s Disease have made
incredible recoveries within
periods as short as 24 to 72
hours when placed on TOA-free uncaria tormentosa (Cat’s
Claw)
for Lyme Disease.
This rapid response
could not rationally be
attributed to improved immune
function or bactericidal
effects on spirochetes. Bb is
known to produce a group of
neurotoxins. The most
sensible explanation for this
recovery lies in turning off or
blocking the neurotoxic effects
of Bb on the lipid containing
structures (nervous system,
muscles, joints) that attract the Bb
neurotoxins. This sudden
improvement appears to be the
result of blockage and
inhibition of the neurotoxins.
The TOA-free form of cat’s claw
(Samento®)
is devoid of tetracyclic
oxindole alkaloids (T.O.A.’s).Cat’s
Claw lacking these T.O.A.’s is a
completely different herb than
common Cat’s
Claw and has been found to
possess amazingly effective
antibiotic qualities as well as
several other very important
healing properties.
Researchers believe that Samento®
may be as much as 1000 times more
effective than Cat’s Claw. One
difference between Samento®
and Cat’s
Claw is that Cat’s Claw is an immune
system
stimulant and Samento®
is an
immune system modulator. Also, Samento®
can be used to treat all autoimmune
disorders; this is not the case with
regular Cat’s Claw.
Samento®
clinically
appears to cross the blood / brain
barrier within 2 minutes, and
it
may have 3 direct beneficial
effects in humans with Lyme
Disease:
Immune modulation (correcting immune dysfunction)
Direct broad spectrum anti-microbial effect on spirochetes. Quinovic
acid glycosides found in TAO-free cat’s claw are similar to the
quinilones widely used ss antibiotics.
Blocking the adverse neurotoxic effects on cells, enzymes, and
hormones
A pilot study treated 28
patients with advanced Lyme Disease with
Samento®. The 14 person
control group was given
antibiotic therapy. At the
study’s termination 85% of
those receiving the cat’s claw
preparation no longer had
positive blood tests for Bb.
All 28 persons had experienced a
dramatic improvement in their
clinical condition. No
significant changes were seen in
the control group.
Currently it is believed that
nearly all adults are infected
with stealth organisms and have picked up toxic
heavy metals, both of which lead to
detrimental effects on health. Samento®
may be of great
value in eliminating some of
these infectious (certainly Bb)
and has also proven very
effective in cancer therapy.
There is convincing evidence
that the Lyme Disease epidemic
may have originated from the
bio-warfare laboratory in Plum
Island off the coast of Lyme,
Connecticut. This, however,
would require a lengthy
discussion not relevant to this
article.
Much of this information was obtained from
Lyme
Disease: Nutraceutical
Breakthrough Using TOA-Free
Cat’s Claw published in Focus
by Allergy Research Group
(October 2003) and from the
November and December 2003
issues of Dr. Robert Rowen’s Second Opinion. If you are

For
decades, most people have seen a visit to the dentist and subsequent cavity
filling as a necessary and regular procedure. Side effects have not routinely
been brought to light, so few have challenged
the status quo. Evidence suggests,
however, that such an apparently harmless procedure can have serious detrimental
effects. Did you know that dental amalgam fillings (popularly called “silver
fillings”) are actually 50% mercury, which
is a deadly poison that wreaks havoc with the human body? The mercury contained in dental
amalgam would be hazardous waste in a river, yet it’s sitting in your mouth, slowly leaking mercury into your
system. A fairly large mercury filling contains enough mercury to
kill a child if given as a single dose!
The ADA continues to remain in denial about the
toxicity of mercury. In an ADA news release on June 13, 2001, ADA President
Robert Anderton stated, “There is no sound
scientific evidence supporting a link between amalgam fillings and systemic
diseases or chronic illness.” Shame on you Dr. Anderton! This is a blatant
lie. All
evidence indicates that “silver” amalgam fillings are extremely toxic to the human body. You
wouldn’t take a leaky thermometer, put it in your mouth, and leave it there 24
hours a day, would you? According to
Tom Warren, “Worldwide
there are over 4,000 research papers indicating mercury is a highly toxic
substance. How can dentists be so thoughtless as to place one of the
deadliest toxins in existence two inches from our brain?”
Evidence now demonstrates that amalgam fillings are constantly
being broken down and then are released into the mouth. These minute particles
of mercury filling are then acted upon by oral and intestinal bacteria to
produce methyl mercury (an even more toxic form of mercury than elemental
mercury) with target areas being primarily the pituitary gland, thyroid gland,
and the brain. That’s right, the brain! After the fillings have been inserted
into the mouth, subtle changes in blood chemistry have been observed that point
to specific chronic disease, such as cancer, MS, and
Alzheimer’s Disease. The difficulty in recognizing the “amalgam connection” to chronic
disease is that clinical symptoms are not present until the patient’s immune
system collapses, which may be in 40 or 50
years. The video below will really open your eyes to the danger of mercury
fillings.
But don’t expect your dentist to
jump on board with you if you ask to have your fillings removed. According to
the ADA’s code of ethics, a dentist who acknowledges that mercury amalgam fillings are
toxic and recommends their removal has acted unethically. According to ADA
Resolution 42H-1986, “The removal of
amalgam restorations from the non-allergic patient for the alleged purpose of
removing toxic substances from the body when such treatment is performed solely
at the recommendation of the dentist is improper and unethical....”
What? Unethical to remove toxic poison from your mouth? Yet more proof that the
ADA is still in the Dark Ages…
What can you do? The first
step in removing the mercury from your system is to get rid of your amalgam
fillings! However, there are safe ways to do this and there are unsafe ways. If
you get your fillings removed by a dentist who doesn’t take precautions, then
the end result will be that you are worse off than before. Careless removal of
amalgam fillings can release even more mercury into your system than what was
leaking before the fillings were removed. Two safety
precautions: 1) Request oxygen during the procedure – this will insure
that you breathe clean oxygen rather than toxic mercury vapor when the fillings
are drilled out. 2) Request a rubber dam – this keeps pieces of the filling
from falling down your throat or onto your tongue.
After you
have had your fillings removed, the next step is to chelate the heavy metals. Taken from the Greek word “chele” meaning “claw,” the word
chelation refers to the way the therapy binds heavy metals, toxins, and
metabolic wastes in the bloodstream.
The quickest and most potent chelation method available today is intravenous
EDTA chelationtherapy. EDTA is an amino acid which has negative charges associated with it. Once inside
the body it looks for positively charged molecules such as lead, iron, mercury,
and cadmium. The number of IV
EDTA treatments necessary is generally between twenty and fifty sessions,
depending on your condition. This will cost between $2,000 and $5,000. Oral EDTA costs significantly less than IV EDTA,
between $20 and $50 per month, depending on your intake. Clinical experience
suggests that oral EDTA chelation provides many, but not all, of the benefits of
IV therapy. Only between 5% and 10% of an oral dose of EDTA is
absorbed into the bloodstream (compared with 100% of an IV dose).
Yet, due to continuous daily intake, the amounts add up and can achieve similar
benefits. Overall, the differences in benefits are more those of degree,
convenience, speed, and cost per dose than of quality.
Another weapon in our “chelation arsenal” is chlorella.
High doses of chlorella (10 to 20 grams) have been found to be very effective
for mercury elimination. This is an important part of a good systemic mercury
elimination program, because approximately 90% of the mercury is eliminated
through the stool, and chlorella helps fecal excretion. And remember, chlorella
is a food, so you cannot eat too much of it! However, you will need to work up
to 20 grams since it can cause diarrhea. Chlorella should be used
in conjunction with cilantro. Dr. Omura, a Japanese researcher,
discovered that cilantro could mobilize mercury and other toxic metals rapidly
from the central nervous system. However, cilantro alone often does not remove
mercury from the body. It often only displaces the metals from deeper body
stores to more superficial structures. Cilantro will help mobilize mercury out of the
tissue so the chlorella can bind to it and allow it to be excreted from the
body. Along with
chlorella and cilantro, you should start eating fresh garlic every day.
This will enhance sulfur stores. Between 2 and 3 cloves a day is an
excellent idea. Make sure you crush the garlic to release its active
ingredients. Jon Barron has a fantastic product called “Metal Magic” which
contains both chlorella and cilantro. You can purchase it
here.
According to Dr. Andrew H.
Cutler, “Amalgam illness is analogous to a war. Your enemy, mercury, captured a
beachhead in your teeth and fortified it with amalgam. Then it launched an
attack. House to house. Organ to organ. Cell to cell. Slowly capturing your
body. You win the war with a surgical strike. Dental surgery. Drill out those
fillings. Removing your amalgam declares an armistice. Fighting stops, but
the mercury atoms are still dug in wherever they reached. Chelation sends clean up squads off to round up the enemy and escort them out.
Meanwhile the surviving cells in your body get to work and to repair the war
damage.”
Dental Trivia:
Did you know that the original
“quacks” were dentists who advocated the use of mercury amalgam? “Quacksalber”
is the old German word for “mercury.”
“My Beating Stage IV Metastasized
Prostate Cancer”
I was
diagnosed, in April 2007 with a 39.6 PSA & related tests (including a biopsy)
that clearly identified Metastasized Stage 4 Prostate Cancer to my left
pelvic bone & received a “death sentence” from an MD. I have had many people contact me
saying that they wanted to hear how I did it and Ty Bollinger asked me to share
my success story with his readers.
After the rather significant overdose of
medical negativeness, I concentrated on what is possible, having studied Deepak
Chopra, Wayne Dyer, David Williams, Tony Robbins, Marianne Williamson, Dr. Andrew
Weil, Dr. Julian Whitaker, Verne Varona and reread my version of the bible, Confession
of a Kamikaze Cowboy by Dirk Benedict. Dirk earned a bit of notoriety/fame
from his participation in the A-Team, Battlestar Gallactica, Charlie’s Angels,
etc. I determined that we all enjoy a body that is a miraculous machine that
must be aligned properly with a quality diet, exercise, quality liquids,
deep breathing, organic foods, and minimum stress in a FAST paced society along
with some occasional “TLC”.
I went on a strict macrobiotic/organic plant
based diet. I embarked on a mission of wellness
enhancement, engaged in/on a strict macrobiotic-organic diet, and in 8+
weeks dropped from 154 pounds,(@ 5’9”), to 132 , a 22 pound loss. I also
discovered that it takes about 4 months to fully change our blood. Therefore, I
remained on a modified organic/macrobiotic diet. As my
investigations (due diligence) indicated that my immune system was restored to a
positive state, I kept searching for additional enhancement methods, protocols,
herbs, nutrients, etc.
I finally found the baking soda and/ or cesium chloride
experts that had experienced success in beating cancers. A good one was Vern
(Vito) Johnston and his “common sense” protocol found on his
internet site. My
results were almost identical to Vern’s. My PSA has been in the range
of 0.1 – 0.4 for almost 10 months, with no residual effects from the April 2007
debilitating diagnosis! I now am
able to eat some “regular” meals & dinners from a menu at a normal American
restaurant. I still concentrate on organic foods, brown rice,
beans, various green veggies, and whole oats at breakfast, filtered water, deep
breathing, walking 30 minutes a day, 8 hours of sleep, fruits, apricot seeds,
chia seeds, goji berries, some herbs, a few special vitamins, and occasional
baking soda. All of my efforts diet wise, breathing, water,
green teas, etc. are to maintain a slight alkalinity.
My success was in large part due
to the considerable assistance and contributions of my wife, Verne Varona (the world’s
top macrobiotic counselor & author of several diet books including his latest –
Macrobiotics for Dummies), Michio Kushi’s books, and many others. What I accomplished is not mine – It is gathered from
many sources and is for all
to benefit from.
Many of you have been following S.510,
aka the
“Food Safety Modernization Act.”
After literally over 20 MILLION emails of
protest to the Senate, the bill was dead in the water.... or so
we thought. But the CRIMINALS in Congress are sneakier
than serpents. You see, S.510 was sent back to House as
amendment to HR 2751 (aka the
“Recycling Bill”) to avoid public
scrutiny and opprobrium.
According to Fred Kelly Grant, here is
how
Senator
“Dirty Harry Reid” (D-Nevada) pulled off this monumental fraud on the American
people. (LINK)
In the early evening of Sunday (December 19th),
Reid called
the
“Recycling Bill”
for a vote and there was no objection from
the two (that’s right... TWO) other
Senators who were on the floor. So by
“unanimous”
consent HR
2751 was passed. The other two Senators went home, then Senator
Reid moved for reconsideration with the vote to be tabled.
This was granted by the same
“unanimous”
consent because there
was no other Senator on the floor. That’s right... Dirty Harry
Reid was the ONLY Senator on the floor.
Then Dirty Harry offered without objection (of course he
wouldn’t object with himself)
amendment number 4890 which substituted S.510 the Food Safety
Bill for the Recycling Bill. Without objection, then the
amendment was passed and the Food Safety Bill had been
substituted for the Recycling Bill. Reid moved that the
bill be read for the third time and asked for the question.
Without objection, the bill passed, and the Food Safety Bill was
on the way back to the House. According to
Fred Kelly Grant,
“If the situation weren’t so critical to
our Republic, it would be funny to see the Senator on C-Span
when he asks for unanimous consent and the President of the
Senate says
‘without
objection, granted.’
There is no objection because there is no one on the floor to
object.”
(Doesn’t
this sound eerily similar to the downright deceptive manner in
which the
“FED”
was enacted back in 1913?) Then, three days before Christmas,
with most of the Congress already home for the holidays, what
was left of the House passed
the bill and voted to join the Senate in giving
“Big Agri-Biz”
a holiday
present ... the USA ... Our Freedom
... Our Bodies ... and Our Food!
According to Marti Oakley (with
whom I agree 100%),
“The last two weeks have seen some of
the most unethical, deceptive, manipulative and outright
traitorous actions by both the House and the Senate. With
“Dirty Harry” Reid leading the traitors charge, every rule was
broken, every trick was used, every deception was employed to
force the passage of S.510 against the will of the people,
most of whom recognized this hostile takeover of agriculture for
what it was ...We
are under siege, only it isn’t coming from someone 'over there'
in some country far away. It isn’t coming from foreign
terrorists who hate us for our freedoms. Its coming from the
District of Criminals. It is those in this district that hate
us and who see our freedom as a threat to their existence. How
much more do we have to forfeit, how many more of our rights
will be taken away before we stand up and say 'enough'! We are
under attack and it isn’t some nameless unidentifiable, unknown
source that is wanting to harm us: it's our own government.”

As I began to summarize horrific implications of what
this legislation really means, I received an email from Mike
Adams, the Health Ranger, and he did an amazing job, so I
decided to post a large portion of the article below.
(from
NaturalNews.com) Of all the
talk about S.510, virtually no one has actually read the
language in the bill -- especially not those lawmakers who voted
for it. The more you read from this bill, the more surreal it
all becomes. For example, did you know there’s a global FDA
power grab agenda hidden in the Food Safety Modernization
Act? Keep reading and I’ll quote text straight out of the bill
itself. Section 305 is entitled
“BUILDING CAPACITY OF FOREIGN
GOVERNMENTS WITH RESPECT TO FOOD SAFETY” and it gives the FDA
authority
to set up offices in foreign countries and then dictate the
food safety plans of foreign governments.
Huh? The FDA
is now going to run the food safety programs of foreign
governments? Look out, world:
“I’m from
the FDA
and I’m here to help!”
So who is involved in creating
this? Believe it or not, the global
“food safety” plan is to be
developed under consultation to the Department of Homeland
Security as well as the U.S. Treasury.
You might reasonably wonder
“What does the Department of
Homeland Security have to do with the FDA’s food safety plan?”
Or
“Why is the U.S. Treasury involved in the
food supply?” Learn more about the Federal Reserve and you’ll
have the answers to these questions. I don’t have space for all
the details here, but read Ed Griffin’s book (The
Creature from Jekyll Island) and visit
www.realityzone.com if you really want to know what’s
behind a lot of this.
So what does this global
“food
safety plan” actually entail? It’s
all spelled out right in the language of the law. You can view
this yourself on page 195 of the bill text in the PDF file
here.
Now, with this law, the FDA will begin pushing its dead foods
agenda globally, essentially exporting the FDA’s agenda of
death and disease by making sure other nations destroy the
nutritive qualities of their food supply in the same way the
U.S. is doing. It’s all great for the global
Big Pharma
profiteers, of course. The more disease they can spread around
the world, the more
money
they’ll make from selling medications.
Codex Alimentarius is also promoted in the bill! The
“Plan” described in this bill
continues with the following:
“Recommendations on whether and how to harmonize
requirements under the Codex Alimentarius.”
This is included so that the FDA will
“harmonize” the U.S. food
and dietary supplement industries with global Codex requirements
which outlaw virtually all healthy doses of vitamins and
minerals. Under full Codex
“harmonization,” America
will be left with a dead food supply and the health food
stores will be virtually stripped bare of
dietary supplements. Selling vitamin D at a reasonable dose
such as 4,000 IU per capsule will be criminalized and products
will be seized and destroyed by FDA agents who recruit local law
enforcement to bring in the firepower.
All this will, of course, ensure a diseased,
nutritionally-deficient U.S.
population.
This actually seems to be the goal the FDA has been trying to
achieve all along because the more diseased the population, the
more money gets collected by Big Pharma for
“treating” sick
people with medication and chemotherapy. It makes me wonder why
some food book authors so wholeheartedly supported this bill.
Why were so many progressives on the left so enamored with this
law? Didn’t
they realize this was a huge FDA power expansion that would
destroy many small farms and put farmers out of business while
subjecting the USA to possible Codex harmonization? Did they
even know the FDA is now on a global food-killing agenda
that will seek to pasteurize, fumigate, cook or kill virtually
every piece of food that enters the United States? Did they not know
that the bill does absolutely nothing to limit
the use of chemical
pesticides
on imported food? According to the FDA’s stance on all this,
foods laced with DDT and other pesticides are perfectly
“safe”
for human consumption, but foods teeming with probiotics --
such as raw milk
-- are deadly and dangerous! (Seriously...)
Let me just say it bluntly: The
Food Safety Modernization Act is the destroyer of local organic
farming. It will gut small farms and local farms, greatly
increasing the price of local organic food while decreasing
America’s food security. Farmers’ Markets will be targeted by
FDA agents who raid the operations
of local farmers and imprison them for not having the right
paperwork. Families will be destroyed, and those who have been
successful at local food production will scale back their
operations in a desperate effort to duck under the $500,000
/ year rule (which can easily be surpassed by producing just ten
acres of organic carrots, by the way).
From another point of view,
however, this bill is doing exactly what it was supposed to
do: Destroy small farms, wipe out
family farm
operations, imprison raw milk producers and centralize food
production in the hands of the big corporate food producers
whose operations are steeped in pesticides and soil degradation.
This bill should have been called the
“Big Agriculture Monopoly
Act” because that’s what it does. It will ensure that America’s
food supply will be controlled by Monsanto, DuPont and other
agricultural giants who have been at odds with small organic
farms for years.
The global food control agenda is
a conspiracy, not a theory! It’s all part of the global
food control agenda that we now know to be 100% true based
on the leaked
Wikileaks
cables which revealed that the U.S. government conspired to push
GMO’s into
Europe and
“create a retaliatory target list” for any nation
that resisted GMO’s (such as France). Read that full report
here.
Thanks to Wikileaks, we now know that the global
GMO conspiracy
is quite real. It’s something that U.S. diplomats and government
officials scheme on in order to appease their corporate masters
in the agriculture industry. Now, with the Food Safety
Modernization Act, this global conspiracy extends beyond GMO’s
and encompasses the global food supply, too.
It has become clear that U.S.
lawmakers
and bureaucrats will not stop until they have killed the entire
global food supply, rendering
living foods, raw foods and dietary supplements illegal or
impossibly difficult to grow. You can thank your U.S.
Congresspeople and Senators for all this, of course. In the end,
every Senator (Republican and Democrat) in office today caved in and voted to pass this
bill. You can also thank those who publicly promoted this bill
even while having no real idea of the horrors they were
supporting.
Such begins a new era of global food destruction headed
by what can only be called the most dangerous government agency
in North America: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Folks,
let me be clear: Despite
the attitude of several of our recent Presidents concerning the U.S.
Constitution, as far as I know, it’s
still the law of the land. I believe in the Constitution, the Bill of
Rights, liberty, and freedom. And I will fight to defend this freedom.
It is worth fighting for. I cannot stand on the sideline while
the rogue U.S. government tramples on the Constitution and
obliterates our food (and health) freedom.
The
tyrants are running loose in DC, and if we don’t stand up and
say “NO,” the USA will continue to become more and more of a
fascist police state. Please don’t
be fooled by the popular rhetoric. Despite what you may hear from
the controlled media, the government does not want you to
have freedom of choice over your health or your future. They want to
control your choices while giving you the illusion
of choice with the false “left-right
paradigm.”
Whether you vote “Demo-publican” or “Repuli-crat” there is NO
DIFFERENCE. The concept of playing supposedly differing
sides off of one another for the purpose of obfuscating the reality
of who is really in power goes back thousand of years to the
Roman empire.
However, according to
the
2009
MIAC Report, patriotic Americans who quote the Constitution and
believe in the Bill of Rights are considered to be
“potential terrorists.”How absurd! Those who believe in freedom are now considered
“terrorists”
while those who blindly support the government and believe everything
the government tells them (like a good herd of
“sheeple”)
are considered to be
“good Americans.”
Based on the current criteria, the founding fathers themselves would
be considered to be terrorists! I am not making this stuff up.
Click
here to watch a video where a FEMA official teaches a group of
firemen and policemen that Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and Paul
Revere were terrorists.
President George W. Bush set the scene when he declared,
“you’re
either with us or you’re
with the terrorists.”TRANSLATION:
“Shut
up and do what the government says!”Bush’s words demonstrate a frightening decline in our
government’s respect for dissent. The sentiment of our founding fathers
concerning the topic of dissent can
be summed up with the following two quotes:
“Dissent is the
highest form of patriotism”
and
“Disobedience to tyrants is obedience to God.”
They must be turning over in their graves by now!
I want to thank you all for your
ongoing support. I believe that our future (and
the future of our children) is worth fighting for, and we must
work diligently to make sure that future is one based on freedom rather than
tyranny. I leave you with a telling quote from Benjamin
Franklin,
“Those who give up liberty for security deserve
neither.”
