Health Freedom Uses the New Media:
Natural Solutions Webinars
INDEX
Introduction
Current Webinars
————————————-
We — you and us together — are the ‘net roots’ of Health Freedom, providing Natural Solutions to the problems that threaten our health and health freedom. The better informed we are, the more effective we become.
Using the Internet to achieve our goals, we constantly look for ways to share information in the continuing educational campaign that forms a principle thrust of our Health Freedom campaign.
Through our web sites and social networking links, our Health Freedom Action eAlerts and the action items they contain. Through the forums we’ve established on Yahoo!Groups. Through our attendance at Codex and other meetings with the YouTube video reports we’ve posted shortly after each event. Through our Health Freedom Blogs. We use many advanced communications techniques to keep you, our ‘net roots’ in the loop and in front of the crowd.
Based on your feedback and our advisers’ input, we are proud to offer you a new, enhanced outreach program:
The Health Freedom Action Webinars

FDA
“Fraud and Death Administration”
Taking Back Food from the Government
It’s really simple, you know. If enough people demand it, the government will behave itself. We saw that a couple years ago when 598,000 of us sought to tell the FDA to leave our natural remedies alone… and the infamous anti-CAM guidance remains in limbo to this day. It comes down to taking simple actions to make sure the agencies, Congress, the President and other decision makers get your message loud and clear. Now that Health Freedom made it among the Top Ten social issues on Change.org and Change.gov, we are ready to push even harder.
That’s where these Health Freedom Action eAlerts make a difference. Please take these actions:
1. Right to Use ~ Right to Choose
Use Nano Silver, Retain the Right to Choose Nano Silver
Questionable “Consumer Organizations” Petition EPA to Ban Nano Silver – Deadline extended to March 20th.
Tell EPA Not to Ban Nano Silver of Any Type http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26405
Defending Nano Silver
http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=1773
Good work! Your vigorous response to the approaching deadline caught the attention of the EPA. So many of your responded that the deadline was extended by 2 months. Now, Mighty Mouse Warriors, keep on clicking! And remember to tell your entire contact list that health freedom is under attack – again!
Ask them to take action here:

The General’s Communiqué
Maj. Gen. Albert N. Stubblebine III (US Army, Ret.)
Health Freedom is gaining new allies. Earlier this week Dr. Rima and I had some preliminary meetings with The City of Knowledge Foundation in Panama, seeking additional support for the International Decade of Nutrition’s Valley of the Moon Eco Demonstration Project. In about 2 weeks we are being flown to Europe for a very special presentation that must remain quiet for now… We’ll be posting YouTube videos from that event, however, so check our YouTube channel often: http://youtube.com/naturalsolutions.
You see, Europe is already in the process of losing most of its supplements and all of its high potency ones. We in the US still enjoy access to them, but the FDA is gearing up to bring us into “HARMonziation” with the Codex Vitamin and Mineral Guideline just like Europe where the European Food Supplements Directive will make advanced health through high potency, varied nutritional supplements a criminal activity.
Natural treatments of all sorts are being seriously restricted there and the EU’s 27 countries met secretly not long ago to force GMO “franken foods” on a strongly unwilling population despite laws and objections. It’s a case of “follow the money – and you’ll find the genocidalists along with the bankers!” But Europe is waking up and Dr. Rima and I are making this trip to help that happen. We’ll keep you posted, of course.
After that, we’ll be filming some documentary footage and doing interviews and, I am happy to tell you, sneaking away for a few days of very, very much needed R&R. We’ll keep you posted on that, too.
One of the Principles of War is “Surprise”. You never want to be surprised and you always want the enemy to be surprised. That’s why it is so important for our side to disseminate high quality information. So if you did not have a chance to read my last communiqué on the current health freedom threat status, I urge you to do so now. Here’s the link to this very important message.

Divest the FDA!
While We’re At It, Divest the USDA, Too!
Action Step:
Protect Food from FDA/USDA Regulation!
http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26314
It’s pretty ho-hum no-news that the FDA is failing miserably at every aspect of its mandate.
~Mercury in high fructose corn syrup (which is usually made from genetically modified “Franken Corn” ~MSG, a known neurological and pancreatic poison (of the excitotoxin class) in vaccines, kids food (and adults food, too) ~Melamine OK in baby’s formulas and the general food supply despite the fact that it can be lethal to babies and there was no safe level until the FDA unscientifically declared that there was ~Irradiated just-about-everything-including-salad-greens ~Antibiotics so widely used that antibiotic resistant (“flesh eating” staph shows up in pork and other foods, industrially genetically modified plants growing next to natural ones and contaminating them forever, ~Salmonella laced peanut butter ~Down graded organic foods to make Big Agribiz as happy as Big Pharma ~Conflicts of interest so blatant that the government no longer tries to deal wth them, ~Cattle producers forbidden to test their cattle for “mad cow” disease because they might find it, ~Sweeteners that can cause blindness, MS and brain damage, ~Acrylamide in snack foods, ~Dangerous unlabeled GMOs passed off as “equivalent” so consumers won’t ask, don’t know, ~Veterinary drugs and pesticides permitted in food despite known hazards, ~Viruses sprayed on foods, ~Cloned meat and milk, and on and on and on.
Thanks to the FDA, the “Fraud and Death Agency”, and the USDA, the “” agency, the US diet is not life sustaining: it is disease and death inducing. Our diet, thanks to these agencies, is literally killing us. Why? Because the regulators work for, and owe their allegiance – and their financial well-being, to the regulated industries.
Enough!
Congressional report after Congressional report, Hearing after Hearing makes it clear that the agencies charged with protecting our food can no more do that than the EPA can clean up and protect our environment. Again and again Congress affirms that the agencies have failed and then “solves” the problem by acting like the lunatic who, unsuccessful at a problem, does the same thing again, making the problem worse, not better.
Enough!
Congress take note: throwing money at the FDA and USDA and giving them more authority does not solve the problem. We have 80 years of proof that this strategy just makes things worse.
Enough!
Yes, the only answer is to take food regulatory authority away from these death dealing agencies and give it back to the States where popular pressure and control is far more meaningful. How to do that? By the same kind of pressure that made Congress do a 180º reversal of direction in 1994. Instead of voting to ban all nutrients (are you noticing a pattern here?) they responded to the millions of letters from Americans from all walks of life and passed legislation treating nutrients as foods which, as such, should not be regulated as if they were drugs. That legislation is called the Dietary Supplements Health and Education Act (DSHEA) and public pressure in its favor is the ONLY reason that we have access to dietary supplements at all.
The lesson is clear. It is public pressure, like the 2×4 the apocryphal farmer used to get the mule’s attention, which drives enlightened public policy, NOT politicians and certainly not the lobbyists they routinely bow to.
The FDA does a poor enough job “regulating” dangerous and deadly drugs. There is no way an agency so pervasively corrupt and inept can change its ways and suddenly become the custodian of health and healthy foods when those very foods are the chief economic competitor of the drugs whose approval supplies the lion’s share of the operating budget of the FDA through “Users Fees”. The conflict of interest is so monumental that it fairly takes your breath away.
Enough!
Drugs are not the very core of life. Food is.
During 2009, the Natural Solutions Foundation will be creating and pursuing a campaign to take back our food from the inept and corrupt hands of the US Government (which also means getting the FDA and USDA out of Codex, by the way). We are going to be asking for your help in dissemination and for action steps.
Ready to get the government out of food and get food out of the government? Click here – http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26314 – to tell your Congressmen and women that the drug makers can have the FDA to play with, but we want the FDA and USDA out of the food regulation business.
And remember to click here – http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189 – to make your tax deductible donation to this vitally important campaign. All us us who eat are in this together, you know. And we need your help to set the table to serve up the dish known as health freedom, with clean, unadulterated food as the main course!
By the Way, While you still can get it, get some great Nano silver here:
www.nutronix.com/naturalsolutions
Go to Products and then scroll down to Silver Solutions (bottom of left side menu).
Nano silver has a very long shelf life, years really, so you can safely lay in your supply NOW!
General Bert told you that we speakers at an important conference in Europe. Make no mistake: we never, but never, leave home without silver. We believe that it is one of the most important reasons that we virtually never get sick and if we do, get better very, very quickly.
Please share this information with your friends and contacts and ask them to help protect food and freedom, too. Let them know that they can get their very free subscription to the Health Freedom Action eAlerts at http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=187.
Thanks!
Yours in health and freedom,

The multiple ways Monsanto is putting normal seeds out of reach
by Linn Cohen-Cole
People say if farmers don’t want problems from Monsanto, just don’t
buy their GMO seeds.
Not so simple. Where are farmers supposed to get normal seed these
days? How are they supposed to avoid contamination of their fields
from GM-crops? How are they supposed to stop Monsanto detectives from trespassing or Monsanto from using helicopters to fly over spying on them?
Monsanto contaminates the fields, trespasses onto the land taking
samples and if they find any GMO plants growing there (or say they
have), they then sue, saying they own the crop. It’s a way to make
money since farmers can’t fight back and court and they settle because they have no choice.
And they have done and are doing a bucket load of things to keep
farmers and everyone else from having any access at all to buying,
collecting, and saving of NORMAL seeds.
1. They’ve bought up the seed companies across the Midwest.
2. They’ve written Monsanto seed laws and gotten legislators to put
them through, that make cleaning, collecting and storing of seeds so
onerous in terms of fees and paperwork and testing and tracking every
variety and being subject to fines, that having normal seed becomes
almost impossible (an NAIS approach to wiping out normal seeds). Does your state have such a seed law? Before they existed, farmers just collected the seeds and put them in sacks in the shed and used them the next year, sharing whatever they wished with friends and
neighbors, selling some if they wanted. That’s been killed.
In Illinois which has such a seed law, Madigan, the Speaker of the
House, his staff is Monsanto lobbyists.
3. Monsanto is pushing anti-democracy laws (Vilsack’s brainchild,
actually) that remove community’ control over their own counties so
farmers and citizens can’t block the planting of GMO crops even if
they can contaminate other crops. So if you don’t want a GM-crop that grows industrial chemicals or drugs or a rice growing with human DNA in it, in your area and mixing with your crops, tough luck.
Check the map of just where the Monsanto/Vilsack laws are and see if
your state is still a democracy or is Monsanto’s. A farmer in Illinois
told me he heard that Bush had pushed through some regulation that
made this true in every state. People need to check on that.
4. For sure there are Monsanto regulations buried in the FDA right now
that make a farmer’s seed cleaning equipment illegal (another way to
leave nothing but GM-seeds) because it’s now considered a “source of
seed contamination.” Farmer can still seed clean but the equipment now has to be certified and a farmer said it would require a million to a
million and half dollar building and equipment … for EACH line of
seed. Seed storage facilities are also listed (another million?) and
harvesting and transport equipment. And manure. Something that can
contaminate seed. Notice that chemical fertilizers and pesticides are
not mentioned.
You could eat manure and be okay (a little grossed out but okay). Try
that with pesticides and fertilizers. Indian farmers have. Their top
choice for how to commit suicide to escape the debt they have been
left in is to drink Monsanto pesticides.
5. Monsanto is picking off seed cleaners across the Midwest. In Pilot
Grove, Missouri , in Indiana (Maurice Parr ), and now in southern
Illinois (Steve Hixon). And they are using US marshals and state
troopers and county police to show up in three cars to serve the poor
farmers who had used Hixon as their seed cleaner, telling them that he
or their neighbors turned them in, so across that 6 county areas, no
one talking to neighbors and people are living in fear and those
farming communities are falling apart from the suspicion Monsanto
sowed. Hixon’s office got broken into and he thinks someone put a
GPS tracking device on his equipment and that’s how Monsanto found
between 200-400 customers in very scattered and remote areas, and
threatened them all and destroyed his business within 2 days.
So, after demanding that seed cleaners somehow be able to tell one
seed from another (or be sued to kingdom come) or corrupting
legislatures to put in laws about labeling of seeds that are so
onerous no one can cope with them, what is Monsanto’s attitude about labeling their own stuff? You guessed it – they’re out there pushing laws against ANY labeling of their own GM-food and animals and of any exports to other countries. Why?
We know and they know why.
As Norman Braksick, the president of Asgrow Seed Co. (now owned by
Monsanto) predicted in the Kansas City Star (3/7/94) seven years ago, “If you put a label on a genetically engineered food, you might as
well put a skull and crossbones on it.”
And they’ve sued dairy farmers for telling the truth about their milk
being rBGH-free, though rBGH is associated with an increased risk of
breast, colon and prostate cancers.
I just heard that some seed dealers urge farmers to buy the seed under the seed dealer’s name, telling the farmers it helps the dealer get a discount on seed to buy a lot under their own name. Then Monsanto sues the poor farmer for buying their seed without a contract and extorts huge sums from them.
Here’s a youtube video that is worth your time. Vandana Shiva is one
of the leading anti-Monsanto people in the world. In this video, she
says (and this video is old), Monsanto had sued 1500 farmers whose
fields had simply been contaminated by GM-crops. Listen to all the
ways Monsanto goes after farmers.
Do you know the story of Gandhi in India and how the British had salt
laws that taxed salt? The British claimed it as theirs. Gandhi had
what was called a Salt Satyagraha, in which people were asked to break the laws and march to the sea and collect the salt without paying the British. A kind of Boston tea party, I guess.
Thousands of people marched 240 miles to the ocean where the British
were waiting. As people moved forward to collect the salt, the British
soldiers clubbed them but the people kept coming. The non-violent
protest exposed the British behavior which was so revolting to the
world that it helped end British control in India.
Vandana Shiva has started a Seed Satyagraha – nonviolent
non-cooperation around seed laws – has gotten millions of farmers to
sign a pledge to break those laws.
American farmers and cattlemen might appreciate what Gandhi fought for and what Shiva is bringing back and how much it is about what we are all so angry about – loss of basic freedoms.
The Seed Satyagraha is the name for the nonviolent, noncooperative
movement that Dr. Shiva has organized to stand against seed
monopolies. According to Dr. Shiva, the name was inspired by Gandhi’s
famous walk to the Dandi Beach, where he picked up salt and said,
“You can’t monopolize this which we need for life.” But it’s not just the
noncooperation aspect of the movement that is influenced by Gandhi.
The creative side saving seeds, trading seeds, farming without
corporate dependence-–without their chemicals, without their seed.
“All this is talked about in the language that Gandhi left us as a
legacy. We work with three key concepts.”
“(One) Swadeshi…which means the capacity to do your own
thing–produce your own food, produce your own goods….”
“(Two) Swaraj–to govern yourself. And we fight on three
fronts-–water, food, and seed. JalSwaraj is water independence–water freedom and water sovereignty. Anna Swaraj is food freedom, food sovereignty. And Bija Swaraj is seed freedom and seed sovereignty. Swa means self–that which rises from the self and is very, very much a deep notion of freedom.
“I believe that these concepts, which are deep, deep, deep in Indian
civilization, Gandhi resurrected them to fight for freedom. They are
very important for today’s world because so far what we’ve had is
centralized state rule, giving way now to centralized corporate
control, and we need a third alternate. That third alternate is, in
part, citizens being able to tell their state, ‘This is what your
function is. This is what your obligations are,’ and being able to
have their states act on corporations to say, ‘This is something you
cannot do.'”
“(Three) Satyagraha, non-cooperation, basically saying, ‘We will do
our thing and any law that tries to say that (our freedom) is illegal…
we will have to not cooperate with it. We will defend our freedoms to
have access to water, access to seed, access to food, access to
medicine.'”

SUMMARY: Health Freedom is Alive and Well – And It’s Only Going to Get Better in 2009!
We’re coming up to another new year… and we’re almost a decade into the new millennium. Time certainly moves on! Our HealthFreedomUSA.org web site and the Natural Solutions Foundation were founded in 2004; in 2005 we announced the Codex 2 Step Process – http://drrimatruthreports.com/index.php?page_id=220 – to allow countries to defy Codex and provide – and trade – clean, unadulterated food; we published our seminal ” Nutricide” DVD – http://drrimatruthreports.com/index.php?page_id=156 – telling people – including Codex Delegates! – what Codex really is and where it came from; we announced our overall strategy to achieve and maintain free access to healthy foods, dietary supplements and natural remedies. We called that strategy “The International Decade of Nutrition” – www.NaturalSolutionsFoundation.org – and have initiated three major projects to demonstrate ways to reclaim food production, ending under-nutrition and the diseases that go along with it, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes and obesity, the major killer diseases. Two of those projects are in West Africa and one is in Panama. You can click here – http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=1711 – to read about the extraordinarily positive developments in the Valley of the Moon(TM) Eco Demonstration Project in Volcan, Panama and here – http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=1130 – to taste our very first “Friendly Food” Certified Valley of the Moon(TM) product: GMO Free, Pesticide Free, Chemical Free Shade Grown Valley of the Moon(TM) Coffee!
I am drinking some right now and it is spectacular! To bring that to you we had to find, and apply, a natural solution to the fungus that destroys the crop here and we have done that. Now we will provide that all-natural solution to the local farmers so they don’t have to use toxic chemicals for their crops!
With your strong support we’ve achieved some remarkable successes. Take a look at our List of Accomplishments at: http://drrimatruthreports.com/index.php?page_id=195
But, of course, such success sometimes comes with the odd Internet denizen or two (and they really are odd!) nipping at our heels and complaining about… all sorts of bizarre irrelevant matters. You may have seen some of the recent Internet furor fueled by poison pen emails from two or three of these odd malcontents.
These attacks always happen when we are getting close to major breakthroughs. And that is what this eblast is about: our hopes and plans for the coming year. Without your help, we will achieve nothing. With your help we will achieve amazing results!
And that’s the truth. During the past few weeks of unrelenting Internet attack our Health Freedom Action eAlert mailing list has grown by over 10,000 new members!
THANK YOU! You have spoken loud and clear. We are humbly appreciative of your continuing support!
This year will provide us with great challenges and choices for change.
If you are in the US, one way to make change is to visit www.Change.org – http://www.change.org/ideas/view/health_freedom – and vote for Health Freedom as a vitally important area of consideration and change for the new administration. This is definitely worth the effort.
Click here – http://www.change.org/ideas/view/health_freedom – to read what the Natural Solutions Foundation Trustees have posted and then add your voice. “Voicing” ends on December 31, 2009. We only need 5000 voting voices to make Health Freedom the number 1 priority of the Change.org system. This may be a real opportunity to raise our collective voices to bring about a real change in the US to re-establish health freedom in place of the growing trend toward health tyranny. Do it now.
Click as if your life depends on it — because it might !
I wish you a wonderful, peaceful, healthy and free New Year. Please check below where we set out the Natural Solutions Foundation’s Wish List for 2009…

SUMMARY: Nutritional Silver Safety is Now Easy to Calculate with the Silver Safety Pyramid
The Natural Solutions Foundation is deeply impressed with the capacity of nano silver to protect against all know biological pathogens (disease causing agents) and enthusiastically recommends the use of a laboratory-tested nano silver product, available at www.Nutronix.com/naturalsolutions (-> products tab -> “Silver Solutions” on left hand side of page).
Questions arise frequently about the safety of silver because of vastly over-rated reports and fears of argyria (bluish-tinged skin following profound overuse and abuse of silver solutions). Nano silver is not stored int the body because of its extremely small particle size and so poses no threat to humans. Many people either have questions or use other forms of silver so we want to offer you a gift of knowledge on this issue.
Along with a number of other professionals involved in advanced healthcare and the health freedom movement, I am a member of the Silver Safety Committee for our Foundation. I’m pleased to announce that the Committee has created the Silver Safety Pyramid and an online calculator so you can determine the safe level of nutrient silver for you.
Is silver safe? Here is what one of my fellow committee members has to say:
“The two things we treat children for most often in poison control centers are toxic intake levels of water and of table salt. Anything in excess is toxic. With normal responsible usage, silver supplements are entirely harmless to humans.”
Jeffrey Blumer, MD, PhD; Director of the Center for Drug Research

Health Freedom Action eAlert
New Year’s Wish List for Us All (+ All US!)
1. FDA Divested of Food Regulatory Authority
US Congressional Hearings on Divesting the FDA, supported by appropriate public outrage leads to a new Cabinet Level Department of Agriculture and Food headed by a Consumer Protection advocate with a separate watchdog agency with no budgetary ties to the organization it is overseeing. Anyone with ties to industry is barred from serving in either a decision making or advisory capacity. Conflict of Interests render the person ineligible to serve in any capacity in the agency. All boards are dominated by consumers, scientists and physicians specializing in health, not illness, to promote open market access to nutritious food, dietary supplements and natural remedies.
2. FTC Bans Advertising and Sale of Vaccines in Interstate Commerce
Federal Trade Commission holds hearings on dangers of vaccines, as requested in our Citizens Petition, and correctly concludes that there is no compelling scientific proof of either vaccine safety or efficacy. FTC then bans advertising which states or implies that vaccines are either safe or effective and bans advertising for, and the interstate commerce of, vaccines until they are proven safe and effective.
3. FrankenFoods Banned
Genetically Modified Foods are banned from the human and animal food supply and may not be grown pending a detailed scientific study on their safety for human, environment and animal health. All GMO plantings must be burned. No GMO crops which produce any industrial or medical products are permitted either in greenhouses or open plantings.
4. All GMO Patents Rescinded
All Biotech (GMO) patents are rescinded since the science upon which such patents have been granted is now understood to be false and inaccurate. No new patents are permitted and all current ones are suspended until further investigation is concluded. International shipment of GMO foods is interdicted for commercial, safety and scientific reasons.
5. Natural Medicine Receives Government and Insurance Incentive, Support
The financial crisis created for the US and global economies results in natural medicine receiving insurance and government support to reduce the amount of money spent on medical care from 16+% to 8% over the next 5 years.
6. Organic Family Farming Receives Financial Incentives, Organic Standards Raised to Meaningful Levels
Organic family farming and foods receive government subsidies while the Codex and National Organics Board standards are revisited to permit upward revision of each and every standard to a level which supports and enhances human, animal and environmental well-being.
7. US Codex Participation Limited to Consumer and Health Advocates, Corporations Barred from Participation
US Codex participation is declared off-limits to corporate interests. Only consumer advocates and health scientists may participate as US delegates to all Codex meetings and activities. Codex reverses course and becomes a force for global health, as its original Statute contemplated.
8. Forced vaccination and Drugging Declared Illegal
All forced vaccination and medication programs are declared illegal through unanimous consent of Congress.
9. Non Toxic Farming Becomes US Domestic and Foreign Priority
Food Production US Domestic and Foreign aide programs are developed to teach chemical free agriculture in the US and elsewhere
10. Poisons Forbidden for Humans and Animals
The use of fluoride, mercury and other toxins, including pesticides, herbicides and industrial sludge, are banned for foods, medicine, dental, agriculture and similar applications.
11. Antibiotics are Banned in Food Animals
Veterinary antibiotic and other drug use is banned for food animals and natural medicine is encourgaged for animals intended for consumption
12. US Joins Global Movement Against Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and Other Persistent Toxins
The US ratifies the Stockholm Convention banning the 12 most toxic chemicals known, 9 of which are pesticides and engages on educational and regulatory programs to ban all toxic chemicals associated with food or agriculture from the environment. Seven of these POPs are permitted by Codex in food without labeling or other identification.
13. The Production of Food is Shifted Away From Industrial, Toxic Methods to Totally Natural Ones in the Hands of Family Farmers
Advanced technologies which produce chemical free, safe, clean food are subsidized for family farms while industrial farms are taxed so heavily for their pollution, inhumanity and health degradation that they cannot stay in business. Local production feeds local communities.
14. What’s next?
Write to us at dr.laibow@gmail.com and tell us what YOUR wish list for 2009 holds. We are listening!
15. R&R
General Bert, Ralph and I all get a vacation sometime this year! Mine involves skiing!
16. Natural Solutions Foundation’s Net Roots Take Wing
We have not just the 193,000+ people on our Health Freedom Action eAlert list that we do today, but 20 million+ active, concerned and involved people around the world spreading the word and making sure that the global message goes out: “My body is my property and I can make my own health decisions freely and without interference!”
17. Blessings Descend Upon Us All
Your year, and that of those you love, like ours, is truly blessed with peace, prosperity, health, joy and accomplishment in the company of those you love and those who love you.
18. Resources Become Available to Win the Codex and Health Freedom Struggles
Sufficient funds to carry out all our objectives make themselves available. For example, a couple of million dollars, judiciously used, would solve the Codex problem by creating an effective voice for consumers and galvanizing the “Coalition of the Unwilling” — those countries unwilling to submit to the current Codex agenda of support for industrial food and destruction of organic foods, natural remedies and nutritional supplements. Also, 100 strong supporters for the Valley of the Moon(TM) Eco Demonstration Project will move us forward substantially in teaching farmers and others around the world the methods and skills necessary to reclaim food production.
19. Disinformation Attacks Disappear
All irrational disinformation attacks on us will vaporize into the mists of morning and the energy they consume will actually go to solving the problems we are facing instead of creating divisions and strife which serves the other side but weakens health freedom.
20. The Natural Solutions Foundation’s International Decade and its Valley of the Moon(TM) Eco Demonstration Project show the way in Ending Hunger and Its Deadly Consequences
The Valley of the Moon(TM) ‘s type of food production and Eco Community organization sets the standard for farmers, consumers and countries around the world through education and participatory agriculture and health practices.
21. The Health Freedom Battle is Over – We Have Won!
I can go back to the full time practice of natural, drug-free medicine.
22. Everyone Who is Interested Gets to Experience the Valley of the Moon(TM) Eco Demonstration Project
You and I get to meet when you visit the beautiful, bountiful, temperate Highlands of Panama and experience the Valley of the Moon (TM) for yourself!
23. You Get to Experience “A Little Taste of Heaven in a Cup (TM)”
You try our Shade Grown, Valley of the Moon(TM) GMO Free, Pesticide-Free, Chemical-Free Coffee – http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=1130#order
and love it so much you give it as gifts to everyone you know for either beverage or detox use. Your tax deductible donation says “Thanks!” in your morning cup of Java and you are loving it!
24. Right Makes Rights Once Again
The looming crises to our way of life and constitutional rights, health freedoms and other invasions of our liberties vanish.
May it all be so for all of us in 2009, a year of health, prosperity, productivity, joy and happiness.

Stem Enhance – Nature’s Healer
Today I want to talk about 2 products.
Individually they are each remarkable. Together they are extraordinary. I use both of them daily and so does General Bert. I have seen exceptional success with them in my natural medical practice and know how wide their impact can be. Since they stimulate and enhance natural healing processes, the range of conditions they deal with is exceptional. After all, give the body/mind/spirit/energy unit (that’s a human being, by the way) what it needs to heal and, most of the time, it will do just that, regardless of the pharmaceutical/allopathic dogma!
Health Aid 1: Stem Enhance ( http://www.wealthbuilderssystem.com/site/index.asp?DL=140935&page=103264&ad=0 ) is an extract of blue green algae which has the proven ability to signal your bone marrow to release adult stem cell – YOUR adult stem cells.
Stem cells are the renewal system of the body because they have unique, nearly limitless healing abilities to detect areas of the body that need help and flock to that site. Once there, they set about altering themselves to become – literally – whatever type of cell is needed, whether it is a heart cell, or a brain cell or a kedney, etc.
Of course, the trick is getting the body to pay attention to the danger and release adult stem cells. All too often, although we are making adult stem cells, we keep them “hidden away for a rainy day” in our bone marrow and other physiological hidey-holes. As we age, or with the stress of illness,
Stem Enhance knows that trick and literally calls forth stem cells lurking in the bone marrow and elsewhere.
Stem Enhance is totally natural, easily available and, in my experience, strikingly effective in helping the body to correct serious, long term and often devastating problems – in short, to return to normal structure and function despite serious or even lethal diagnoses.
Click here – http://www.wealthbuilderssystem.com/site/index.asp?DL=140935&page=103264&ad=0 – to learn more about Stem Enhance and its amazing ability to stimulate release of adult stem cells in your body and here – http://organics4u.stemtechbiz.com/quickorder.aspx – to get started using Stem Enhance to harness the power of your own adult stem cells.
Naturally Enhances Circulation and Detox
Health Aid 2: Stem Flo – http://drrimatruthreports.com/store/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=1239 – reduces oxidative stress and enhances circulation within 30 minutes of taking this all natural combination of widely known circulatory stimulators according to laboratory studies. That means that the adult stem cells released by your body when you take Stem Enhance are carried with greater effect to every part of your body. Of course, even without Stem Enhance, increasing circulation is helpful for a great many people. Click here – http://www.stemflo.com/index.html – to see the natural ingredients which have been synergystically combined to provide circulatory support and then imagine what increasing blood flow to the brain, heart, kidneys, lung, etc., can do to bring stem cells, nutrients and oxygen to them while removing debris and toxic waste at the same time!
Together with Stem Enhance or alone, I find that Stem Flo is a unique and highly effective circulatory aid to help the body return to normal structure and function.

SUMMARY: It’s a New Year and that means New Opportunities.
I’ve said it before, but it deserves repeating: we are here because YOU care. You care about your health and that of your family. You care about your freedom. And, as we’ve learned in the past few weeks, you care about us.
I take care of the hundreds of emails that come to our Foundation every day, forwarding to Gen. Bert, Dr. Rima and Counsel Ralph your messages, answering those that I can. What has most impressed me recently have been the hundreds of messages of support and good wishes. That, and the impressive growth in our Health Freedom Action eAlert list tells me that we can count on you, just as you can count on us!
Please remember to ask everyone you know to join the Action eAlert system at: http://www.healthfreedomusa.or/index.php?page_id=187
And, of course, your generous year-end donations are certainly appreciated: http://drrimatruthreports.com/index.php?page_id=189
A Word From Dr. Rima
My personal wish for your 2009 is exactly the same as my personal wish for my year and that of my family: peace, prosperity, health, joy, accomplishment and, not least, freedom. Personal freedom, health freedom, civil freedom, and the freedom to learn, share information and think your own thoughts free from harassment, inhibition or interference. Oh, yes, I urgently wish us in the US all a return to to the Constitutional form of Government which protects and directs a free society.
2009 CAN be a year of decisive forward movement for freedom – all freedom – if we join hands and hearts, ignore the distractions and disinformation (which indicate just how effective we are!), focus on committing ourselves to taking back our legitimate power and using it for making our voices ring loud and clear in the halls of power, in our homes and hearts.
Happy New Year!
Yours in health and freedom,
Dr. Rima

As a physician I was trained to understand that there is a physicial underpinning to the function – or dis function- of any biological creature. It’s name? Biochemistry. Molecules support, or prevent, poison or allow all chemical reactions in the body. And there are lots of them. Every one of our trillions upon trillions of cells is carrying out about 35,000 enzymatic reactions at any moment and each of them is part of a chain of reactions that allow – or prevent – events “downstream” from that particular enzyme and its tasks.
Enzymes are robots. They are complexes of proteins (made up of chains of amino acids) and “nutritional metals” like magnesium, zinc, manganese, copper, and others). They have sulfur and other non metals and they are very, very precise.
After an enzyme does what it is there to day (for example, transferring a molecule from one side of a membrane to another) its shape has changed so it can no longer function, like a fork lift truck with its blades on backwards. Then another enzyme comes along and returns it to its origianl shape so that it can do the same job over again. The helper enzyme is now literally “bent out of shape” and ANOTHER enzymes comes along and fixes the fixer enzyme and then, you guessed it! Yet another enzyme fixes the fixer of the fixer. On and on it goes, one enzyme performing its job, then unable to perform again until another enzyme resets it, then needing to be reset itself.
If one step in this astonishing molecular dance is missed, there are consequences. If the cause of the mis-step is a drug, the consequences have a special name, “Side effects”. If the cause is the chronic lack of nutrients, only a few doctors understand that the disease which is identified is, in fact, chronic under nourishment. The treatment for most doctors trained in allopathic medicine is exactly wrong almost all of the time: they give drugs to poison more enzyme systems.
WHAT? That is, in a nut shell, the entire basis of pharmaceutical medicine. The only time I can see that it is justified, the ONLY time, is in the Emergency Room. Other than that, it has no place.
But for a few doctors, and many non-doctors, the treatment is obvious: if there is a deficiency not of a drug, but of a nutrient, or many, give the nutrient and its companion nutrients. Give it in a high enough dose that even starving cells and membranes can find the energy to absorb and begin to use the nutrients. And, Voila! people get better. Pretty much, in my experience, every single time.
This simple, intuitive and obvious fact is not at all obvious to those whose minds have been altered by drugs, either by the “education” shaped by the interests of the drugs (often referred to by its short hand name, “Medical School”) or drug regulators and others whose ability to think have been poisoned by the money involved in the drug system – more than all other industries when taken in the aggregate!
Science is often the last to know, like the girl whose boy friend is dating her best friend. Science has taken this long to notice that if you give children nutrients their brains function better. The article below, from the British Journal of Nutrition says that the paper published below is breaking new ground since this is the first time that the positive impact of nutrients on children’s capacity to carry out tasks has been shown to be impacted by supplements.
Or is it just that selective science is the last to know?
Consider:
Benton D; ILSI Europe a.i.s.b.l., The influence of children’s diet on their cognition and behavior., “… there is a growing body of evidence that diet can influence the development and functioning of the brain. Several lines of evidence support the view that the diet of the mother during pregnancy, and the diet of the infant in the perinatal period, have long-term consequences…”, Eur J Nutr. 2008 Aug;47 Suppl 3:25-37.

Marks scored by the regular breakfast group in subjects - Science, English and total Percentage were significantly higher compared to those scored by the children in the no breakfast group. Regular breakfast eating habit and weight for age percent were significantly (P< 0.001) associated with immediate recall memory score explaining 4.3 percent variation.

or about a zillion other articles, books and studies showing the same thing. So why is this "news" rediscovered with wonder and astonishment over and over and over and over and over and....?
Because supplements are cheap and safe. And because doctors - and patients and parents - have been trained to discount this reality, provide garbage to their children and themselves which they mistakenly designate as "food" and then scurry to the nearest prescription pad when the "side effects" of malnourishment come piling up.
So while I am pleased to see this article, I am not pleased that the same findings continue to be "news" when the news is that real, appropriate, healthful, non GMO, chemical free food cures and lack of that kind of food creates illness, both behavioral and organ based illness.
Are there other causes of illness? Sure. But the major killers (and economic producers for the illness care industry, cancer, cardiovascular disease and stroke, diabetes, obesity and obesity, are specifically identified as the "non communicable epidemic diseases of under nutrition by the World Health organization, WHO.
Ah, yes! Killer disease of under nutrition creating a vast and wildly profitable market for dangerous drugs which kill people in greater numbers than the drugs themselves do! Can't make safe, cheap, effective nutrients available, now can we? Be serious. Instead, let's get Codex Alimentarius up and going and make sure that the food produced under its "Voluntary" Standards and Guidelines are as health hostile, chemical and industry friendly (including its beloved Biotech Industry) get as much support as possible.
Codex, you will recall, is the product of the mad -but very clever - mind of Fritz ter Meer, a Bayer Drug Company Executive who become the head of IG Farben, the civilian organization that made the German's participation in the Second World War a near-success. He was also a convicted criminal following his trial at the Nuremberg War Tribunals for his success and enthusiastic participation in creating the German Death Machine.
After he, and the 26 other IG Farben executives (many of them drug company executives) got out of jail a scant less-than-4-years after they entered, ter Meer was hard at work as the head of Bayer Pharmaceutical once again. His creativity was focused this time not on the slogan above the front gate of the Auswitz death camp ("Arbeit Macht Frei", or, in English, "work brings freedom") but to the creation of the concept of Codex Alimentarius. Subsequent events show that the idea of creating contaminated, poisoned food, full of chemicals, GMO adulteration, irradiation by products (like free radicals and dead bacteria and their spilled-out insides in "cold sterilization" processes), hormones, antibiotics, etc., etc. was a wonderful business decision for the pharmaceutical industry. Health people, after all, are generally eating healthy food. Take the healthy food, and the supplements that enhance nutrition, away and you have sick people who got that way from eating sick food. In short, you have the US "Food" Supply (more than 80% GMO, by the way) as the primary feeder (!) sending people into the illness care system - where they stay, literally until they die.
If that is NOT what you want for your food, then get even more active than you are in letting everyone on your list know that you are a Natural Solutions Foundation Health Freedom Advocate and that you need them to be a Health Freedom Advocate, too. Here's how"
1. Join the free Natural Solutions Health Freedom eAlert (http://drrimatruthreports.com/index.php?page_id=187) distribution list and take every action step in the Newsletter, each time it comes to your email box. Then send it along to your email list and other contacts asking them to do the same. If you voice is not raised loud and clear, speaking truth to power, how will we protect your health and health freedom?
2. Donate to the Natural Solutions Foundation (http://drrimatruthreports.com/index.php?page_id=189). Your 100% tax deductible donations make it possible for the largest, most active and most effective health freedom organization in the world to protect your interests.
3. Change your buying habits so that you are ONLY purchasing GMO free foods. Look for labels that say “GMO-Free” or “Contains No GMOs” or “Organic”. Even though the outlay appears higher, how expensive is cancer? diabetes? heart disease? stroke? For organic supplements (not sourced from genetically modified plants, viruses and animals, free of pesticides and other dangerous contaminants, visit www.Organics4U.org.

4. If you are a lucky enough to be a coffee drinker (or detox person), or know people who are, we have a wonderful way to combine health freedom donation and the purchase of wholesome food! Coffee is the second most heavily chemically sprayed substance consumed by humans, running a close second to tobacco. So brewing coffee makes a water extract of God-Alone-Knows-What. Toxins too dangerous for use in US agriculture are made by US companies and sold in high volume in the coffee producing regions of the world where workers, often illiterate, spray huge quantities of deadly poisons on the theory that “more is better”. And you drink it.
Not any more! The Natural Solutions Foundation is now producing delicious, smooth and flavorful chemical free, Shade Grown, 100% Hard Bean Specialty Valley of the Moon(TM) Coffee (http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=1130) as part of its Valley of the Moon Eco Demonstration Project (http://www.NaturalSolutionsFoundation.org) in the highlands of Panama. In appreciation of your $25 dollar donation, we’ll send you a bag of the best coffee you have ever had. Remember to give some to your friends, (http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=1130) and you will see why we say Valley of the Moon(TM) Coffee is “A Little Bit of Heaven in a Cup(C)” What a delicious way to donate to the Natural Solutions Foundation!

The influence of children’s diet on their cognition and behavior.
Multivitamins and minerals help children’s brain function: study
By Stephen Daniells, 05-Nov-2008
Daily supplements of multivitamins and minerals may improve the brain function of children, says a new study from British and Australian researchers.
Twelve weeks of supplementation with vitamins and minerals was found to boost the attention scores of children, according to results published in the British Journal of Nutrition.
“This represents the first observation of acute behavioural effects of vitamins/minerals in human subjects,†wrote the researchers, led by Professor David Kennedy from Northumbria University in Newcastle.
“Naturally, these observations require replication in larger cohorts, but they do suggest that this matter should be given some priority,†cautioned the researchers.
Study details
The Newcastle-based researchers, in collaboration with scientists from Swinburne University in Australia, and the University of Westminster in London, recruited 81 children (average age 11) to participate in the randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel groups investigation.
The children were reportedly all healthy and free from food allergy. In addition, none of the children used other dietary supplements during the three months prior to the study. Participants were randomly assigned to daily multivitamin and mineral supplements or placebo for 12 weeks. The study used Pharmaton SA’s Pharmaton Kiddi blend of multivitamins and minerals. The Swiss company also provided funding for the study.
Cognitive performance was measured using a battery of laboratory assessments. Measures were taken before the study, after one and three hours after the first dose, and after 12 weeks.
Kennedy and his co-workers report that the children in the vitamin/mineral group performed more accurately on two tests of attention. Indeed, the researchers noted the first signs of improvement only three hours after the first dose on the first day.
“The most surprising facet of the improvement in attention task performance seen here is that it became evident by three hours post-dose on the first day,†they wrote.
“To the best of our knowledge, the possibility that vitamins or minerals could exert behavioural effects after a single dose has not been explored,†they added.
However, no effects were observed on measures of the children’s mood, they added.
Science behind the claims?
The researchers noted that the study was aimed at testing the claims of the manufacturer that the multivitamin and mineral could improve the physical development and neural performance of the children.
“The combination of vitamins, minerals and amino acids present… in the present study does not allow the results presented to be attributed to any one component,†wrote the researchers.
“Further work in this area could examine the constituent parts of this treatment in more detail, perhaps focusing on attentional measures and including acute, as well as chronic, assessment,†they added.
