Your Most Disturbing Realizations

Is it true, that in the US the drinking-water is still flouridated, area-covering?

Processed Foods, Arsenic, Pesticides, Overdose of Fluoride... All of things you mentioned contribute, but what is being done to our food and water supply is the foundation for the epidemic. And not just cancer, autism as well. 1 in 42 children in the US has Autism Spectrum Disorder, with an increasing trend upwards every year. The only concrete association so far has been exposure to pesticides while a woman in pregnant. But if you look at Infant Formula as well, any Non Organic Formula's main and First ingredient is High Fructose Corn Syrup. So you have a new life that has been exposed to pesticide, chemicals, drugs during labor, and injected with refined sugar for the first year of life. How is that even LEGAL?

Talk about a lack of Ethics in the world...

Unfortunately, the doctors in this country are not exactly leading the discussion since nutrition is not
currently a focus in medical school.
And the government has their hands tied by big food industry and chemical lobbyists that basically
control what the FDA approves, deems safe for human consumption, and overall food policy.

Yes, the water has fluoride. And high levels of it.

Yep.. Pharma Cartels and Food Production Cartels run this country....

And how often do you even see Monarch butterflies anymore? Or toads in the backyard? Let's keep bulldozing the swamps and the fields and the vacant lots for beaverboard McMansions and cinder-block shopping centers, and see how that works out for the future.

Saw quite a few Monarchs here, this year but nothing like years past. We planted butterfly bushes to attract them and that helps. We also plant curly leaf parsley near them as they like to lay their eggs on those plants.

I haven't had a cavity in over thirty years. Before flouridation I would have one or two new ones annually -- I'm carrying so much metal in my back teeth that I distort radio signals. My mother had lost all her teeth by the time she was my age, and I've still got all of mine except the ones I lost before flouridation or to trauma. So I can't complain too much about flouride.

I can remember when flouride was considered a Communist plot. Which is silly, we never discuss flouride at any of the cell meetings.

I'm happy, that I'm not living in one of the bigger german cities, with their traffic-rubber-dust, swirling unvisible through the streets. But, if you have something to do in such a city and then leave it, to get home, you just have to look at your eye-glasses. I realized it in 2014. They will be dusted and probably you will get headache, if you don't clean your glasses as soon as possible. I think, it's not just the dust from the ground. I think, it's mixed with the rubber from traffic.

I mean, Germany don't have got the air-pollution of the former industrial-age, especially GDR until 1990 (!) and the car-catalysators work of course. But, I will not inhale the dusty air on this cities, every day!
I prefer my outlying little-town, best thuringian-woods. Best air, you can get.

You are indeed a lucky fellow !
When I lived in L.A. many times the morning wake-up call on the radio was the
“smog-alert” warning to remain inside your home.

Going to work was challenging, to say the least.

That’s me in the middle...I had problems wearing hats with my big ears & all...

When I stepped off the bus in Los Angeles in 1983, I thought it was the most horrific, offensive stench I had ever smelled in my life. And I grew up surrounded by the odor of putrefying chicken and fish guts.

There is a difference between eating one chocolate and eating the whole box. One chocolate for fine taste (i.e. 'some' small amounts of fluoride, preservatives, and flavor enhancers would do just fine to cultivate a healthy society). An entire box of chocolate is a problem, a sickness, or other kind of issue (i.e. the levels of crap they infuse into everything now a days and claim it does not affect us to benefit the pockets of vested interest groups and big pharma pockets).

Can anyone explain to me why chicken has to have arsenic and clorox in it? Or why eggs and milk have to be infused with added hormones?

 

[LizzieMaine]

What it all comes down to is that gluttony is no longer considered a sin. And there are lots of different kinds of gluttony to consider.

In a nutshell....
Speeds up the mass production output & also the items can remain longer on the shelves before
having to be replaced.
Which is the companies top priority.


Ich muss ein sicko sein !
I’ve been devouring boxes of chocolate ever since I can remember
with no side effects.

I think I will donate my body to science for examination or
be stuffed in the Ripley’s Believe It or Not museum.

A lot of things are not considered sins anymore....

A lot of things are not considered sins anymore....

And my priest is quite relieved by that.

nicht viel Spaß !

Can't comment on the arsenic, I'm ignorant of that one but chlorine bleach is added to the feed to make the meat "whiter." Remember the BFM started the campaign when it was determined that white meat was leaner and better for us. Feed used in mass produced chickens also has aspirin in it because of the steroids used to make the chickens grow faster and bigger stresses their hearts? Plus, these chickens are bred to grow faster and bigger. These birds are typically ready for market, from chick to mature bird in about five weeks. A heritage breed of chicken will take about eighty to one hundred days.

Hormones are added to the egg producing chickens because it increases the "urge" to reproduce without a rooster around to take care of that. Same with milk cows without a calf.

I have come to the realization recently that I have begun to think about retirement in a more concrete way. We have even begun to stake out areas in which to live that are not where we live now.

Honestly, I probably saw more Monarchs this year than the previous 5 years combined.

Hello Greg,

So yes, its all about more and more profit. At what point I wonder does it capitalism stop being about a better way of life and instead corporate imperialism of human beings? Ugh...
