U.S. to cut funds for water testing at beaches


The EPA plans to cut $10 million in grants it gives annually. Water quality advocates worry that swimmers and surfers will be at even greater risk of illness.
Health testing at beaches in California and across the nation is at risk of being cut under a plan to eliminate federal funds for monitoring whether the water is too contaminated to swim in.

Citing the "difficult financial climate," the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said in its budget request this week that it would do away with $10 million in grants it gives each year to state and local agencies in coastal and Great Lakes states to test for tainted water.

"While beach monitoring continues to be important to protect human health and especially sensitive individuals," the EPA said in an emailed statement, "states and local governments now have the technical expertise and procedures to continue beach monitoring without federal support."

But state and local officials have struggled to pay for health testing along California's busy coastline in recent years, and water quality advocates worry that swimmers and surfers will be at even greater risk of getting sick if the federal funds evaporate.

The proposed cuts come as the agency is drafting new nationwide beach water quality standards, which have been panned by environmental groups as being even weaker than the 1986 rules they replace.

"It feels like a double whammy to beachgoers," said Kirsten James, water quality director for Santa Monica environmental group Heal the Bay. "The EPA is on multiple levels telling them they are swimming at their own risk every time they go to the beach."

Lunch nazis on the attack

A North Carolina preschooler this week got a taste of the brave new school-lunch world.
As the 4-year-old entered the lunchroom, the state lunch inspector (!!) examined her sack and found the contents to be in violation of US Department of Agriculture nutrition guidelines. Herr Lunch Lady summarily threw the offending meal — including a homemade turkey sandwich, banana, chips and apple juice — into the trash; the girl was given a school-lunch meal consisting of . . . chicken nuggets.
Ah, yes, a vast improvement over the poison her mother packed. This is a perfect example of the Food Nazis’ victory over — not childhood obesity, but parental say in what kids eat. Nor is it an isolated case. Lunch inspections have been going on in Britain for years now, and the practice fits nicely with the Obama administration’s goals.

Maple Syrup Nutritional Information


Pure maple syrup: Pure maple syrup is a 100% natural food product, processed by the boiling and concentration of the pure maple sap. Maple sap is a sterile, clear liquid, which provides the trees with water and nutrients before the tree buds and leaves open in the springtime. In the boiling of the maple sap, concentrating it down to the syrup, and filtering processes, all the nutrients remain in the finished maple syrup. Please note, there are some numerical differences in the nutritive composition of maple syrup. This is due to the trees size and strength and environmental differences due to location among maple trees.
Sugars: Sugars are an important source of energy. The main sugar in pure Maple syrup is sucrose. The darker grades, especially Grade B syrup, contain small and variable amounts of fructose and glucose. In order of sweetness, sucrose is less sweet than fructose, and sweeter than glucose.
Minerals: Minerals have specific and nonspecific nutritional functions in the body's metabolism. In pure filtered maple syrup the main minerals present are: calcium, potassium, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, and iron.
Vitamins: Vitamins are essential to maintain health; they cannot be manufactured by the body (except Vitamin D) so they must be acquired through food or taken separately. In pure maple syrup trace amounts of vitamins are present, mainly B2 (Riboflavin), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyridoxine), PP (Niacin, B1), Biotin, and Folic Acid.
Amino Acids: Amino Acids are the building blocks of the proteins. In pure maple syrup many amino acids are present in trace amounts.
Total Solids: The total solid's in pure maple syrup amount to 66.5%, with the remaining 33.5% consisting of water. The table below represents the main elements within the total solids.

Breast cancer: does mastectomy/lumpectomy “cure cancer”?

by Pat Bafford,


I ... completely disagree that any form of surgery used alone for breast cancer, whether mastectomy or lumpectomy is effective in curing cancer. I have read numerous accounts and personally known many women who had a lumpectomy with "clear margins" and then the cancer returned elsewhere a few years later. How can this be if the cancer was completely contained in the tumor with no spread to other parts of the body and the tumor was removed?


The answer is how natural medicine views cancer vs. how mainstream medicine views cancer. Mainstream medicine views cancer as the tumor; in fact, oncology means the study of tumors. Therefore, once the tumor is removed, the cancer is cured.


However, natural medicine views cancer as a systemic disease--an entire-body phenomenon, and most natural physicians know that in order to really cure the cancer, you must figure out what caused it and change that.


In other words, even if you catch the cancer early and remove the tumor (lumpectomy), the cancer will return unless you fix what caused it in the first place. I have copied an excerpt below from Dr. Lam's website (www.drlam.com) which I think elaborates on this line of thinking very well:


Modern oncology (the study of tumors) was founded based on the Halstead theory of cancer developed by W.S. Halstead. Halstead lived from 1852 to 1922. His primary focus on cancer was on the tumor and not on the patient as a living organism. Under this hypothesis, the removal of the tumor should remove the disease and cure the patient. But, if this theory was true, why does the age-adjusted mortality rate for breast cancer remain unchanged for the past 50 years despite advances in surgical techniques and aggressive cancer debulking operations? Halstead's theory is incomplete because its emphasis is on the tumor and ignores the patient. He looks at the tumor as the disease in and of itself, disregarding the overall body as a contributing factor.


While conventional medicine primarily treats cancer as a focal disease with localized symptoms, naturally oriented physicians think otherwise. They view the body as a closed internal ecosystem, and believe that the dysfunction of this ecosystem leads to the development of cancer.
Compare Healing Cancer Naturally.


No treatment, conventional or otherwise, can completely eliminate all cancer cells according to the naturally oriented physician. The reason is simple. Cancer is a systemic disease, and there are simply too many cancerous or pre-cancerous cells within the ecosystem of the body. Cancer is not a localized problem but a whole-body phenomenon of metastatic growth. Its growth process is affected by biological conditions. Non-genetically based cancer forms in the body because of toxins, the lack of oxygen, poor nutrition, and other factors such as hormonal imbalance. Whether the cancer in our body continues to multiply depends to a large degree on our body's biological terrain. It is this terrain that determines how the cancer is expressed.


Naturally oriented doctors often view cancer as a chronic, systemic and metabolic dysfunction of the genetically intracellular makeup. Tumors are only the symptoms of the submicroscopic dysfunctional causes. The root of cancer therefore lies in the progress of growth and metastasis, and not the tissue in which the tumor was first detected.


The naturally oriented doctor therefore fights cancer by optimizing the internal terrain and enabling the patient's internal system to destroy the tumor. It enhances the patient's health so that cancer cells cannot grow and multiply.

For Anyone Thinking of Having Mainstream Cancer Treatment

I thought this might be some convincing evidence NOT to have such treatment. It concerns what my mother is going through right now.

This is from another board I'm on, written by me:

"Harry and others,

I GREATLY appreciate your mentioning the possibilities of bowel ‘complications’ from radiation. I would like to STRENGTHEN your warning, and add some details to it:

My mother is currently in the hospital recovering from MAJOR Surgery due to bowel "complications" because of what are termed "adhesions" that formed in her abdomen subsequent to radiation she received for a tumor on her upper thigh.

I ASKED THE RADIOLOGIST SOME 6 TIMES prior to my mother having the radiation just what side effects and complications she might expect from the radiation treatments.

ALL SIX TIMES THE RADIOLOGIST REPLIED THAT THE WORST MY MOTHER COULD EXPECT WOULD BE SOMETHING AKIN TO A "BAD SUNBURN" ON HER UPPER THIGH. WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! LIES! LIES! LIES!

DO NOT AT ALL NECESSARILY TRUST THAT YOUR UROLOGIST, RADIOLOGIST, ONCOLOGIST OR SURGEON IS TELLING YOU THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT TO GO THROUGH SUBSEQUENT TO CHEMO"THERAPY", RADIATION OR SURGERY.

I was under the VERY MISTAKEN impression that radiologists can significantly pinpoint what area they want the radiation to hit. NOT SO! My mother's abdomen and intestines were SERIOUSLY affected by the radiation, NOT AT ALL just her upper thigh. Here is what she suffered:

~ For some 3 WEEKS her inner and outer vagina and surrounding areas "felt like they were in flames."

~ For between 4 and 5 MONTHS she had terrible, continuous diarrhea.

It was so bad, she could not go out anywhere, and she ended up in the hospital due to dehydration and seriously unbalanced electrolytes.

~ As I have already mentioned, she ended up with hard, thick scar tissue in her abdomen, and with adhesions that her intestines are now getting stuck on, causing the kind of LIFE-THREATENING EMERGENCIES such as the one she had last Saturday night.

Regarding the diarrhea my mother experienced, there is a common condition called "Radiation Enteritis" that radiologists DO NOT AT ALL necessarily warn people about when treating them with radiation.

It is a condition of continuously frequent, sudden, watery or bloody diarrhea caused by PERMANENT radiation damage to the intestines, and there is NO significantly effective way to treat it. People who end up with radiation enteritis become invalids from the condition! What kind of life can one lead when there is always the immediate possibility that sudden liquid diarrhea will splash down one's legs and into one's shoes?

Regarding adhesions, when the intestines get stuck on an adhesion, (which is, I gather, a hard, protruding, "finger-like" growth of scar tissue from the radiation), they shut down, causing terrible pain and vomiting, and necessitating immediate medical intervention. The adhesions can be removed surgically, but there is VERY significant likelihood that they will grow back, and even that NEW adhesions will form from the surgery done to remove them! Not only that, but during ANY surgery on or around the intestines, there is ALWAYS the possibility that the surgeon may cut or nick the some part of the intestine, and of course a perforated intestine is EXTREMELY SERIOUS!!!

For those reasons I have just mentioned, surgeons are very reluctant to operate on people to remove adhesions. The usual treatment is for the person with the adhesion-caused bowel obstruction to be admitted to the hospital, where he or she lies in bed, waiting and hoping the intestine will free itself and drop back to where it's supposed to be. It's not at all unusual for that to happen, but unfortunately, it's ALSO not unusual, after the person leaves the hospital, for the intestine to get hung up on the adhesions again...and AGAIN and AGAIN and AGAIN WITHOUT END!!!

The reason I've said the radiologist who treated my mother was lying is because the intern who examined her last week said hard abdomenal scar tissue and adhesions are so common as to be EXPECTED subsequent to such treatment.

Many people coming to this Alternative Prostate Treatment Board appear to want to keep one foot in Mainstream Treatment and one foot in Alternative Treatment. For the reasons I have mentioned, if I were ever again diagnosed with cancer [Elliot Yudenfriend cured himself of lymphoma, considered incurable by mainstream medicine], I would do EVERYTHING alternative I possibly could before ever again considering any mainstream treatment.

There are a great many people around, some of whom are my friends and acquaintances, who have had mainstream treatment of one kind or another who say, "If I'd known what it was going to be like---if I'd known what I was going to suffer, I'd NEVER have consented to the treatment!"

Rest assured my mother will NEVER have radiation treatment again.

Oh, yes---an after-thought... Not only does mainstream treatment come with all the SERIOUS side effects I have described, but in some 98 percent of cases it is immediately or ultimately INEFFECTIVE!!!

by Elliot Yudenfriend

Alternative cancer treatment

In deciding to use an alternative protocol, you ALREADY have taken a TREMENDOUSLY SIGNIFICANT STEP toward your healing without yet having started ANY protocol at all! :+)) Make no mistake---your WILL TO LIVE and YOUR DETERMINATION to TAKE AS MUCH CONTROL AS POSSIBLE OVER YOUR OWN HEALING has ALREADY STARTED YOU ON THE PATH TO HEALING. TAKE THAT TO HEART, AND KNOW IT TO BE TRUE! CONGRATULATIONS AND GOD'S BLESSINGS ON YOU.

From this point, it is a matter of prayer and of trust. Pray that you will find the right way for you, and trust your heart, your gut and your head to reveal to you when something or someone you speak to or meet is right or wrong for you.

Read as many testimonials as you can find on whatever protocol you think may be the right one.
Ask for phone numbers of people you feel it could be useful to speak on the phone with. Personal conversations give you an added dimension and a connection you just cannot get reading internet messages.

When you do decide to go with a particular protocol, make SURE you have the directions for it STRAIGHT FROM THE HORSE'S MOUTH, and that you FOLLOW that protocol TO THE LETTER, turning neither to the right nor to the left! If you can converse with the "horse" (the inventor of the protocol) while doing the protocol,(in the event of questions) so much the better. But if not, at least be sure to follow the protocol EXACTLY, and be CERTAIN to give the protocol the prescribed amount of time it needs to show results.

Also, I found myself shying away from terribly complicate, deeply involved protocols---ones that called for stuff like daily coffee enemas, slathering one's body with sesame oil, gobbling 50 different vitamins and supplements, taking 20 hot and cold showers a day, etc, etc. There was a doctor in New York City who had a protocol which, when I heard it fully described, as well as how much it cost, almost made it seem more worthwhile to just let the cancer kill me.

Truly, I would certainly choose a protocol that had a goodly number of adherents and plenty of healing testimonials, and one that appeared to be one I COULD HANDLE without turning myself, my lifestyle and my pocketbook inside out.

But let me get back to the first thing I said about choosing a protocol: God says to us [according to the Christian Bible KJV]: "I have set before you life and death. Choose life!" [Dear Reader], you have chosen well! Now pray to God to show you the way, know that He will guide you, and continue on your journey to healing!

Monsanto doesn't serve GMO in its own cafeterias



The fight to ban genetically modified foods has won more converts — some employees of Monsanto the company that is doing the most to promote GM products.
The Independent newspaper reports that there is a notice in the cafeteria of the Monsanto pharmaceutical factory is High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, advising customers “as far as practicable, GM soya and maize (has been removed) from all food products served in our restaurant. We have taken the steps to ensure that you, the customer, can feel confident in the food we serve.”

The notice was posted by the Sutcliffe Catering Group.
Monsanto confirms the authenticity of the notice, but company spokesman Tony Coombes says the only reason for the GM-free foods is because the company “believes in choice.” Coombes says in other Monsanto locations employees are happy to eat GM foods because they are “sprayed with fewer chemicals.”

Adrian Bebb with Friends of the Earth says the notice in the Buckinghamshire plant is hard to misinterpret. “The public has made its concerns about GM ingredients very clear – now it appears that even Monsanto’s own catering firm has no confidence in this new technology.”

Kale...


Kale is a wonderful green food that supplies more usable calcium to the body than any other thing on Earth. It's natural and comes in colloidal form, which is how the body wants to get calcium anyways.

. Anti-inflammatory: Inflammation is the number one cause of arthritis, heart disease and a number of autoimmune diseases, and is triggered by the consumption of animal products. Kale is an incredibly effective anti-inflammatory food, potentially preventing and even reversing these illnesses.


2. Iron: Despite the myth that vegetarians are anemic, the number of non-vegetarians with iron-deficiencies is on the rise. Per calorie, kale has more iron than beef.


3. Calcium: Dairy and beef both contain calcium, but the U.S. still has some of the highest rates of bone loss and osteoporosis in the world. Kale contains more calcium per calorie than milk (90 grams per serving) and is also better absorbed by the body than dairy.

4. Fiber: Like protein, fiber is a macronutrient, which means we need it every day. But many Americans don't eat nearly enough and the deficiency is linked to heart disease, digestive disorders and cancer. Protein-rich foods, like meat, contain little to no fiber. One serving of kale not only contains 5 percent of the recommended daily intake of fiber, but it also provides 2 grams of protein.


5. Omega fatty acids: Essential Omega fats play an important role in our health, unlike the saturated fats in meat. A serving of kale contains 121 mg of omega-3 fatty acids and 92.4 mg of omega-6 fatty acids.


6. Immunity: Superbugs and bacteria are a serious risk to our health. Many of these come as a result of factory farm meat, eggs and dairy products. Kale is an incredibly rich source of immune-boosting carotenoid and flavanoid antioxidants including vitamins A and C.


7. Sustainable: Kale grows to maturity in 55 to 60 days versus a cow raised for beef for an average of 18-24 months. Kale can grow in most climates and is relatively easy and low impact to grow at home or on a farm. To raise one pound of beef requires 16 pounds of grain, 11 times as much fossil fuel and more than 2,400 gallons of water.
