Action eBlasts 3 Times Weekly Until the Election!
United Action Amplifies Our Push Back!
Please 1. Open Each eBlast
2. Take Action Items 3. Visit Candidates With Talking Points
4. Spread Information to Mobilize Others To Do The Same!
We Continue to Educate the Candidates
NEW! GMO TALKING POINTS
Last eBlast had the Food Freedom Talking Points
This Time We Take on GMO “Phony Phude”
Due to your strong Push Back opposition, the US Senate has not yet adopted the fake “food safety” bills, S.510 and S.3767, and our Food Freedom Talking Points in our last eBlast continues to educate candidates and representatives about these bad bills.
Visiting Candidates and Incumbents, Talking Points in hand, gets their attention and forces them to pay attention. But, in addition to this immediate Food Freedom threat, other Health and Food Freedom issues need to be addressed during this election period, too. Therefore, we are preparing a series of Talking Points for you to use to keep the pressure up! Members of Congress and hopefuls candidates will be crisscrossing your district… be ready for them!
We ask you to visit your candidates and incumbents (especially the US Senate) during this critical electioneering month. Go, if you can, with groups of people who all come armed with the following “Talking Points”. Remember to discuss them rationally, briefly and very, very directly. Print out one Talking Point copy for each member of your group and half a dozen for the Congressman or candidate and his/her staff. And mention that you are part of the Natural Solutions Foundation, the largest Health Freedom Organization in the world. As I write this, there are more than 305,000 supporters on our primary list alone! Each of them has contacts and is willing to share this information to preserve our health freedom.
Here, Then, Are
THE TALKING POINTS

IS THIS THE WEEK WE LET CLEAN FOOD DIE IN THE US? IT IS IF WE ALLOW S. 510 TO PASS
WE MUST TAKE ACTION AND THEN ACTIVATE YOUR ENTIRE NETWORK TO DO THE SAME
Congress is prepared to pass S. 510, the shockingly mis-named “Food Safety Bill”
Stop S. 510 NOW!
http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=4613
Take Action now to make sure that YOUR Senators place a “HOLD” on this bill to insure that it is not passed by “Unanimous Congressional Consent”. One Senator, placing, and sustaining, a hold on the bill can force it to be delayed, despite the demands of Monsanto and their friends. HOLD it until December and it dies with the close of this Congress.
This just in: we have word that a Senator from an important western State opposes the bill and may be willing to face down Big Agribiz. Take this Action Item IF there is support from other Senators.
It is urgent that you take action now even if you have raised your voice on this topic before because massed protesting voices are OUR SIDE’s lobbyist!

Listen to the Elderly: They Have Seen It All, And They’ll Tell It Exactly ‘Like It Is’. Especially Maxine
Let me get this straight.
We’re going to be “gifted” with a health care plan we are forced to purchase and fined if we don’t, written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn’t understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn’t read it but exempts themselves from it, to be signed by a president who also smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn’t pay his taxes, to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that’s broke.
What the hell could possibly go wrong?
Well, Vaccines Could Be Mandated. That Would Make Something Go Wrong: Your Health, Your Freedom and Your Survival, For Example
Take These Action Items NOW and Then Pass Them On

http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=3688
Vaccines and vaccine mandates are very much in the wind, but not, alas, in the MMD, the Media of Mass Deception. Once the people of the US and most other countries of the world rejected, en mass, the absurd and dangerous H1N1 pandemic scam (including NY State and NJ both backing down on their vaccine mandates when the Natural Solutions Foundation and friends sued the State Health Departments in Federal Court), the Pholks at Big Pharma had some other tricks up their collective, and very dirty, sleeves. Recall as you read the rest of this article that there is not a single shred of evidence showing that ANY vaccine is either safe OR effective, let alone both, although such certainty is required by US law before any vaccine can be approved. Recall, too, that the US is the most vaccinated country in the world. And the sickest. And the most drugged. Recall that 1 American in 3 will die from cancer, a disease of under nutrition and environmental toxicity, including vaccine poisoning and chemicals in food (enter Codex!)
And recall that the US has:
1. Changed the ACIP (Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, part of the CDC which is part of the Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS) Guidelines to recommend Seasonal Flu vaccination for everyone starting at 6 months and extending throughout the life span. What ACIP “recommends” generally becomes State, school and other agency mandates within a very short time.
“The 2010 ACIP guidelines emphasize the following:
* All persons at least 6 months old should receive annual vaccination for the 2010-2011 influenza season;
* During the 2010-2011 season, 2 doses of a 2010-2011 seasonal influenza vaccine should be given at a minimal interval of 4 weeks to children aged 6 months to 8 years with unknown vaccination status who have never received seasonal influenza vaccine before (or who received seasonal vaccine for the first time in 2009-2010 but received only 1 dose in their first year of vaccination), as well as to children who did not receive at least 1 dose of an influenza A (H1N1) 2009 monovalent vaccine regardless of previous influenza vaccine history…”
http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/726213″
2. Included H1N1 vaccines in the “seasonal” flu shots for 2010-2011 flu season despite a total lack of medical requirement for such inclusion (or, indeed, for any vaccination, for that matter). People avoided the seasonal flu shots at the same time they avoided the H1N1 shots in 2009-2010 leading to the lightest flu season in memory. The correlation is excruciatingly clear: flu shots create disease. Disease is good business. Therefore we must have flu shots, says the global government.
3. Ignored totally the fact that Canada, Finland and Australia have taken the GSK flu vaccine off the market in those countries because of serious side effects. Side effects include an incurable neurological condition called “narcolepsy” or uncontrollable sleeping episodes, convulsions, miscarriages and death. Of course, the FDA holds that the tremendous increase in post vaccination miscarriages, among those side effects, is not worth worrying about.
4. Conveniently found a “professional organization” to call for mandatory vaccination of health care workers at peril of losing their jobs if they are unvaccinated. The Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America, http://www.shea-online.org/, has done just that.
Healthcare professionals, however, are neither amused nor persuaded. In a Medscape Poll, the results are pretty much the same as they were last year when mandates were proposed for H1N1 vaccination of health care workers:
Among all responding HealthCare Professionals, 28% strongly favored the mandatory vaccination while 58% strongly opposed it.
Among physicians, a generally strongly pro-vaccination group, the results are extremely interesting:
36% strongly agree with the mandates while 44% strongly oppose them.
For nurses, who tend to be closer to the adverse events associated with vaccination, those strongly agreeing with the need for a mandate, 26%, were strongly outnumbered by those opposing it, 59%.
Only 34% of pharmacists, who sell the vaccines, strongly endorsed the mandate while 46% strongly opposed it.
Not one group of polled health professionals in the US endorsed a mandate. Here, by the way, is the question which these health professionals were asked in this survey:
“The Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (SHEA) recently released a policy paper recommending that healthcare workers be required to get the seasonal flu vaccine or face losing their job and professional privileges. Do you favor or oppose SHEA’s recommendation on mandatory vaccination for healthcare workers?”
http://www.medscape.com/px/instantpollservlet/result?PollID=3356&src=mp&spon=17&uac=117629CN
But Wait! There’s More [Vaccination]
The US Government, including FDA, CDC and ACIP cannot, apparently, get enough vaccines into the public. The Department of Defense (DOD) is not far behind since civilians working for the DoD Schools in Europe were notified on July 30, 2010 that their Swine Flu AND Seasonal vaccination was mandatory and that failure to receive this vaccination would result in dismissal from their jobs. Likewise, about 30,000 students are now required to receive the untested and unnecessary vaccines despite the fact that WHO has publicly rescinded their failed “Level 6 Pandemic” attempt.
Stars and Striped, a DoD publication, said,
“The immunization policy, mandated by U.S. European Command [EUCOM], covers both the seasonal and swine flu viruses and applies to teachers and employees at more than 80 Department of Defense Dependents Schools [DoDDS] in Europe, as well as 30,000 students. Children older than 6 months enrolled in base daycare centers and daycare center workers throughout Europe also are affected by the move.
“We fully support the EUCOM policy,” said DODDS-Europe spokeswoman Margaret Menzie”
http://www.stripes.com/news/flu-shots-mandatory-for-students-teachers-at-dodds-europe-schools-1.112858
So we Health Freedom advocates have to ask “Who owns the body of these teachers and their students?” Apparently, the Department of Defense does. And just who owns your body?
In October, 2009, GSK’s HPV vaccine, Cervavax, the first vaccine in the US to contain an oil in water adjuvant (similar to the dangerous compound squalene), was recommended for use in girls 10-25 years of age. Merck’s Gardasil is already approved for use for girls between 11 and 26. http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/722855?src=mp&spon=34&uac=117629CN
Medical Insanity Alert – Fasten Your Intellectual Seat Belt!
Now, take a deep breath and look at these two headlines from today’s issue of Medscape Daily News, an electronic medical science newsletter which I receive each day:
Guidelines Updated for Use of 23-Valent Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine in Adults [A 23-valent vaccine is supposedly effective against 23 different types of disease causing organisms, in this case, bacteria – Dr. Rima]
September 8, 2010 “Invasive disease from Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is a major cause of illness and death in the United States, with an estimated 43,500 cases and 5,000 deaths among persons of all ages in 2009,” write J. P. Nuorti, MD, DSc, and C. G. Whitney, MD, from the Division of Bacterial Diseases, National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, for the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) Pneumococcal Vaccines Working Group. “This report provides updated recommendations from the …ACIP for prevention of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) (i.e., bacteremia, meningitis, or infection of other normally sterile sites through use of the …PPSV23 among all adults aged ?65 years and those adults aged 19-64 years with underlying medical conditions that put them at greater risk for serious pneumococcal infection.”
Pneumococcal Vaccine Dosing Schedule Linked to Higher Risk of Acquiring Multiresistant Strain [This vaccine is only /supposedly/ effective against 7 types of disease causing bacteria – Dr. Rima]
September 7, 2010 “A 2 + 1 pneumococcal vaccine dosing schedule is linked to an increased risk of acquiring a multiresistant strain, according to the results of a study reported in the September 8 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
“The rapid increase in multiresistant serotype 19A as a cause of invasive and respiratory pneumococcal disease has been associated in time with the widespread implementation of 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccination (PCV-7) in several countries,” write Elske J. M. van Gils, MD, from University Medical Center Utrecht in Utrecht, the Netherlands, and colleagues.”
What could be crazier? The vaccine we have approved causes resistant organisms to develop and leaves people more susceptible to infection with them. YES! NOW, let’s create not a 7 organism vaccine, but a 23 organism one and watch this one screw up people’s immune systems so that not even the most potent antibiotic will work.
Nano silver? Oh, let’s ban it the way we have in Europe since it IS the universal safe, effective and inexpensive antibiotic which makes all other antibiotics unnecessary. Gives the lie to vaccines, too, since with a good immune system and nano silver you loose even the pretext that they have any place in health or prevention.
We recommend www.Nutronix.com/naturalsolutions as a source of our favorite nano-silver.
And then there’s this:
Flu Shot No Better than Placebo in Preventing Asthma Attacks
Stockholm, Sweden, September 16, 2002.
A new Swedish study has found that flu vaccine is “possibly no better than placebo in preventing exacerbations in asthmatic children.” Reporter Cameron Johnston reports that “Asthmatic children and other groups are usually encouraged to receive the flu vaccine each year as winter approaches. However, according to one study, the flu vaccine may be no better than placebo for preventing influenza-induced asthma exacerbation among children.
and this:
Japan Abandons flu Shots for Children
Large scale studies of compulsory flu vaccination in Japan of school aged children showed the vaccine to be ineffective and conducive to lawsuits due to adverse side effects. Two large studies one in 1980 and the other in 1985, involving four cities with vaccination rates between 1% and 90% showed little difference in flu incidence. In 1987, the Japanese government changed the flu vaccine from compulsory to voluntary. By 1989, even though only 20% of the population took the flu vaccine, the incidence of influenza did not increase. http://www.whale.to/vaccines/flu7.html
and this:
“One of the most bizarre twists on the flu vaccine saga is the CDC recommendation of 2001 that all pregnant women receive the vaccine in their second or third trimester. This recommendation even has doctors confused, since the vaccine remains a category C drug (unknown risk for pregnancy). No adequate studies have been conducted to monitor safety of the vaccine for mother and fetus. The only studies of adverse effects in pregnancy were conducted in the 1970s (Heinonen et al., 1973; Sumaya & Gibbs, 1979). Some flu vaccines still contain mercury as a preservative, despite a 1998 FDA instruction to remove mercury from all drugs. According to the CDC, two groups are most vulnerable to methylmercury, the fetus and children ages 14 and younger. An article published in the American Journal of Epidemiology in 1999 stated, “the greatest susceptibility to methylmercury neurotoxicity occurs during late gestation” (Grandjean et al., 1999). How did CDC committee members determine that flu vaccines were safe for pregnant women? They did not. The committee, despite its own recommendation, states, “additional data are needed to confirm the safety of vaccination during pregnancy” (CDC, 2001b).
http://vran.org/about-vaccines/specific-vaccines/influenza-vaccine-flu-shot/resisting-the-flu-vaccine-hype-for-children/
and this:
Dr. Hugh Fudenberg, one of the world’s leading immunogeneticists, states the chances of getting Alzheimer’s disease is 10 times higher if an individual has five consecutive shots than if they have one, two or no shots.
Source: transcribed notes of Dr. Fudenberg’s speech at the NVIC International Vaccine Conference, Arlington, VA September, 1997
and on and on and on and on. Yet the government insists vaccines are safe and effective just as if there were a shred of real evidence that they are either one.
This is simple madness. The craziness that is vaccination MUST stop at your body and your children’s. The choice is yours.

Dr. Rima on Stopping S.510
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHUeyD_KCrI&feature=player_embedded
They say “no person’s life, property or liberty are safe when Congress is in session…” and to that we must add, nor is our right to grow and use our own food, as families and communities. We are happy to report that some of our friends in the Freedom Movement, including Citizens for Health and Downsize DC have joined in S.510 Push Back, also setting-up S.510 Action Items urging their supporters to message the US Senate. We applaude their efforts and remind everyone that we need hundreds of thousands of emails flooding the Senate if we are to keep our Food Freedom! Please help by widely forwarding this eblast and Dr. Rima’s hard-hitting S.510 video~
For more than a year, the plan to capture – and kill – clean, local, organic, independent and safe farming has been wending its way through Congress, supported by the party in control of the White House and Congress, as well as the too-big-to-fail AgraBiz industry.
Last year, the devastating HR 1279 passed the House, although working with patriots like Ron Paul, We the People put up a good battle, delaying it for quite a while. However, at the end of the day, a good battle followed by a loss is still a loss.
Then the field of battle shifted to the US Senate’s version, S.510, where we’ve held the forces of Big Agra and Big Govt at bay for nearly a year…
During one memorable weekend in November 2009 over 150,000 emails to Senators tied the bill up in the HELP committee with its chairman, Senator Tom Harkin remarking about the “thousands” of emails. He promised that the (sic) food safety bill would not impose Codex Alimentarius restrictions in the USA.
We didn’t believe him and when, in February, Senator McCain introduced the “companion” so-called “dietary supplement safety” bill, S.3002, we mobilized the Health Freedom “Mouse Warriors” and in one month and one day, and several hundred thousand emails, later the Senator was forced to withdraw support for his own bill, opining (and whining) that its major points could be covered by (hiss, hiss…) S.510!
Then in mid-July, the congressional majority leadership issued its “short list” of bills it wanted to push to passage before the August recess. The good news was: S.510 was not on the list!
The bad news is that the bill’s handlers could “sneak it through” the Senate as a “unanimous consent” non-controversial matter when the Senate returns in September!
That is, unless opposing Senators put a “hold” on the bill, which means it cannot be treated as non-controversial. On the way to recess, the Senate HELP committee reported the bill out, without the amendment from Senator Tester that would have offered a bit of protection to family farms and ranches, home and community gardens, farmers markets…
Please send the Action Item below to your Senators, demanding that the “hold” the bill! How does a Senator do that? The Senator has one of his or her staff members call the staff of the Senate Cloak Room (yes, there still is a Senate Cloak Room, but now it has a staff! Ah, bureaucracy! The staff is responsible for non-controversial, unanimous consent bills. That’s where this bad bill stops!

URGENT PLEA FOR CODEX PUSH BACK
ACTIVITIES FUNDING
Codex is about supression, repression, and death.
But there are other international organizations steadfastly working for food freedom, for health and for life.
Codex Push Back working on the international level; due to our work and your support, various countries and associations are becoming activated to protect safe food AND keeping America’s food safe needs just such a global effort since our food has been internationalized… Now, the international community is taking us seriously, with a growing movement for Safe Food Push Back!
No fake “food safety” bill can hide the fact that America’s food is not safe; effective Global Codex Push Back mean safer food on your plate!
Consider that we have been invited by the Panama government to participate in the Food Fair in Santiago de Panama this week, presenting our BeyondOrganic concepts to the President of the Republci (who owns the largest food store chain in the country) and we will also be representing the Panamanian authorities and the Panama Organics Producers Association at the Peru Latin American and Caribbean Food Production meeting in early September, and then, travelling for Health and Food Freedom again, in Serbia later in September (for an Int’l Safe Food Meeting).
Additionally, Natural Solutions Foundation attends several Codex meetings each year for you.
Well, now we have multiple opportunities to attend international meetings as the representatives of you, our net roots constitunecy! This is a significant opportunity to raise our international profile to protect your internationalized food supply!
The Natural Solutions Foundation is now the International Arm of the Association of Organic Producers of Panama (APAO) and, at the request of the Ministry of Agricultural Development (MIDA) and APAO, we will be attending an important international meeting in Peru in a few weeks as their representatives and as your representative!
If you make this possible.
Panama and its 1000 organic growers have zero budget for this activity. That is why, despite their strong interest, they have not been able to move forward with these sorts of initiatives.
Until now. Until the Natural Solutions Foundation and the Valley fo the Moon™ Eco Demonstration Project came into their lives and they came into ours…
This is the significant anti-Codex opportunity we know we need.
So, here is the question: Are we ready as a community of interest, to make this happen?
Is your committment strong enough and real enough to pledge enough money to make it possible for your voice to ring loud on the international scene and create the dynamic to overturn, reverse and reform Codex berfore it kills us?
How do you show that commitment?
With your wallet.
Right here, right now. Click the link below to set up your recurring donation.

June 27, 2010
David Korten is both a change agent and an observer of change. He has written a provocative article called, :The Big Picture: 5 Ways to Know if You’re Making a Difference”.
He says that if you can answer “YES!” to ONE of the following criteria, you are making a difference.
Here are his criteria, taken from the article which you can read below:
1. Does it help discredit a false cultural story fabricated to legitimize relationships of domination and exploitation and to replace it with a true story describing unrealized possibilities for growing the real wealth of healthy communities?
2. Is it connecting others of the movement’s millions of leaders who didn’t previously know one another, helping them find common cause and build relationships of mutual trust that allow them to speak honestly from their hearts and to know that they can call on one another for support when needed?
3. Is it creating and expanding liberated social spaces in which people experience the freedom and support to experiment with living the creative, cooperative, self-organizing relationships of the new story they seek to bring into the larger culture?
4. Is it providing a public demonstration of the possibilities of a real-wealth economy?
5. Is it mobilizing support for a rule change that will shift the balance of power from the people and institutions of the Wall Street phantom-wealth economy to the people and institutions of living-wealth Main Street economies?
You, through the Natural Solutions Foundation, can answer
1. YES!!
2. YES!!
3. YES!!
4. YES!!
5. YES!! to this excellent assay of effectiveness.
Check out just a few of our accomplishments below and here, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=195. These accomplishments are yours and ours, together, because without you, there would be no meaning to our work. It is the community of empowered people that makes a difference, and that is what you, and we, are, together.
Frankly, our “Accomplishments” page is out of date because the Trustees of the Natural Solutions Foundation do not have time to get it up to date without taking time away from our rapid, profound and widely focused forward movement.
Consider: Our Codex eBook, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=220, was the first document to outline exactly how every country in the world, including, of course, the US!, could move to a higher standard for every class of food than Codex (which would not be hard!) without the dreaded World Trade Organization trade sanctions which are the club Codex waves to subdue countries that balk at degrading their food supply to make the globalists happy while their people die, just as we do, from toxic, degraded food and nutrients whose doses are so low that they have no beneficial impact worth noting – by design!
Our Codex DVD, “Nutricide“, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=156, is the lecture that has helped millions of people, including Codex delegates!, understand what Codex is about by understanding where it came from!
Our trips to the poorest countries all over the world resulted, for example, in their trusting our leadership so that we were able to block the US government’s attempt to get fluoride approved for inclusion at high levels in infant formula for normal babies at the Codex Committee for Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses (Thailand, 2007). This, alone, is a major victory in policy change!
The Natural Solutions Foundation, with its radio show, the Dr. Rima Reports, www.BlogTalkRadio.com/FreedomizerRadio, 9 PM to Midnight Eastern Standard Time, every Sunday night, is getting information out. Just look at the lineup of guests for the next couple of months! http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=4850
Our Action Items generate hundreds of thousands to millions of your emails to decision makers!
Our Blogs are widely circulated and passed from reader to reader around the world!
Our Videos, like
Nutricide, http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5266884912495233634#
Should the US Get Out of Codex? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfCni-LuR_c
The Globalist Genocidal Agenda, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8f2P4GCJL8&feature=related
and dozens of others at www.Youtube.com/NaturalSolutions give people deeply researched, and deeply important information that they can use and share, changing local and leadership opinion. They, too, are passed from person to person around the world!
Radio appearances (on shows like Alex Jones, Jeff Rense and dozens of others), documentary film appearances (like “Making a Killing, Psychiatry, Industry of Death, and two of Governor Jesse Ventura’s Conspiracy Theories episodes, and other public information activities get the word out there. Uniquely, Natural Solutions Foundation gives people meaningful actions they can take – including growing their own food at www.FoodFreedomeJournal.org, for example.
And, uniquely among all the health freedom organizations we know of, we are actually creating a project to help the farmers of the world, the consumers of the world and the governments of the world to reclaim the production of clean, unadulterated food! It is called The Valley of the Moon™ Eco Demonstration Project, www.NaturalSolutionsFoundation.org, and it is a major forward step for people who want to live, to farm, to help or to enjoy a truly sustainable teaching community the temperate, beautiful Highlands of Panama.
Several governments have asked us to work with them to change their food supply to a clean, unadulterated, health-promoting one and, of course, we said “YES!”
On the eve of our departure for another grueling Codex meeting. Oh, Geneva is OK as a city. There are some decently priced restaurants for locals and the lake, surrounded by mountains is pretty enough. If I had my way, though, and if General Stubblebine had his, we would stay right here in Panama working on the development of the Valley of the Moon Eco Demonstration Project, www.NaturalSolutionsFoundation.org, getting ready for the Grand Opening of the Natural Solutions Center on August 7 and 8! By the way, consider this your invitation to join us for this event! If you are on the Health Freedom Action eAlert list (sign up here: www.HealthFreedomUSA.org) you’ll get all the details.
But we cannot stay here, much as we would like to. Hundreds of thousands of people -and more – want to know what the Codex Alimentarius Commission is doing to despoil the world’s foods to bring about the perpetual war on their bodies, their health and their freedom – indeed, their very existence, that Big Pharma, WHO, Big Chema and the other genocidal, callous and much-worse-than indifferent players on the global food scene, led by the US, of course. They wait for our live radio reports, our daily Codex Video and written updates and our analysis of what is happening so they can counter it.
They know, and they take action on, the dangers that bills like S. 510, the Food Fascism Bill (named, of course, the “Food SAFETY Bill”), http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26714, will bring to them if they remain inactive. And we’ve kept this horrible bill from being voted on since November, 2009! That’s impact.
They are willing to call for a complete ban on the dangerous technology which has invaded the world’s food and non-food plant and animal life forms – including US, our DNA. By clicking on this link, rapidly growing numbers of people are protecting their future, and that of every living thing on the planet: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=2049
Millions of people demanded that they have the right NOT to receive the vaccine for the absurd and fraudulent “Level 6 Pandemic” nonsense known as H1N1 or Swine Flu and the US backed off from requiring mandatory vaccination.
Now we are demanding Congressional hearings and responsibility in controlling, stopping and reversing the loss of children because of devastating environmental toxicity, including vaccines that do not work, have no science behind them and are killing us and our kids, while rendering huge numbers of us infertile, http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=3688. And we are suing the FDA to prevent more vaccines from being used which have never, ever been either tested to make sure that they are safe OR effective, let alone both. That case, the Stop The Shot Case, is a companion case to the Ear Candle Case, which we are also suing the FDA in that one, too. http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=2521. You see, if they can innocuous ear candles, of which 20 million have been sold without a single meaningful adverse event, saying that they are a medical device for which there is no medical use, they can ban ANY device or nutrient claiming the same.
We backed them off this crazed behavior in March, 2008 when they first flew this particular idea to see what would happen. What happened was that we, 688,000 strong, roared NO!, HELL NO! They predictably went away and, just as predictably, came back with this absurd power-grab to make all natural health products and services illegal.
We were there that time, and we are there this time, too. By the way, your recurring tax deductible donations here, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189, are the essential lubricant which allows the health freedom wheels to keep turning. These donations are the only way that we can do this work, get to Codex, sue agencies, etc.
We are there, every time, because YOU are there. YOU are the netroots and YOU are the solution, the natural solutions. Thanks for making the Natural Solutions Foundation the largest health freedom organization in the world. And thanks for making a big, big difference.
Thanks, too, for your generous tax deductible donations. http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189
If you are not already giving the cost of a month’s worth of coffee, tea, chai, latte, cappuccino, or your other pleasure items each month, let me suggest that you do so, on a recurring basis. That’s the life-blood that keeps our brains and our other working parts pumping!!!!!
Oh, yes, two other things: first, if you use coffee for health or pleasure, you will want to taste the Valley of the Moon(TM) Coffee – FREE coffee! Coffee that we grow here in Panama to teach other farmers how to grow coffee without ANY toxic chemicals, neither herbicides like Monsanto’s Roundup(C), nor paraquat, nor Agent Orange products like 2-4D, nor pesticides or herbicides – NOTHING but sun, rain, fish meal and a 10 ingredient fermented compost! Other farmers are beginning to grow coffee this way, but there is nothing like our Valley of the Moon Coffee! Support your health and health freedom at the same time by making a tax deductible contribution and getting the healthy coffee. Oh, by the way, you can give this superb coffee as a thoughtful gift at any time of the year. Supplies are strictly limited so order NOW!
The second thing: All of this is great but without YOU as the person who disseminates this information, the Action Items and takes them once for each member of your family and then passes them along to all your contact, this information would stay the private knowledge of the few, a sort of information elite. Nice, but not effective. It is YOUR dissemination which makes this heath freedom thrust take wing and shape local, national and international policy.
It’s your world. Thanks for making us effective so that we do, in fact, make a difference!
Yours in health and freedom,

The Big Picture: 5 Ways to Know if You’re Making a Difference
David Korten
David Korten’s newly revised and greatly expanded 2nd edition of Agenda for a New Economy: From Phantom Wealth to Real Wealth, outlines an agenda to create a new kind of economy: locally-based, community oriented, and devoted to creating a better life for all.
In this special pre-publication excerpt Korten explains how to tell if your actions are helping to build the new economy that “must be lived into being from the bottom up.”
For the many millions of us working to create a better world, it is easy to feel discouraged by the seeming insignificance of even major successes relative to the scale of the problems we face as a nation and a species. Consumed by the details and challenges of our daily engagements, we may easily lose sight of the big picture of the powerful social dynamic to which our work is contributing.
Step back from time to time; take a breath, look out beyond the immediate horizon to bring that big picture back into perspective. Reflect in awe and wonder at the power of the larger social dynamic to which your work contributes.
In my career in international development, I saw, time and again, that the most successful projects were not the largest or the most carefully, centrally planned; they were the ones that arose from the bottom up. Likewise, successful social movements are emergent, evolving, radically self-organizing, and involve the dedicated efforts of many people, each finding the role that best uses his or her gifts and passions. Their scope and their success may not, at first, be readily apparent. Social movements grow and evolve around framing ideas and mutually supportive relationships instead of through top-down direction. New ideas gain traction, or not, depending on what works for those involved in the movement. Some alliances are fleeting; others endure.
The organism, not the machine, provides the appropriate metaphor. The relevant knowledge resides not in the heads of outside experts but in the people who populate the system. The challenge is to help them recognize, organize, and use that knowledge in ever more effective ways.
This is the model I think of when I think about what it will take to build the New Economy—one based on fulfilling the basic needs of people and planet—that we need. It’s also the way that that economy is already being built: step by step, in creative and surprising ways, by people looking for alternatives to a system that isn’t working for them.
To bring down the institutions of Empire, we must begin to build the rules, relationships, and institutions of a New Economy. These must be lived into being from the bottom up.
So how do you know whether your work is contributing to a big-picture outcome? If you can answer yes to any one of the following five questions, then be assured that it is.
1. Does it help discredit a false cultural story fabricated to legitimize relationships of domination and exploitation and to replace it with a true story describing unrealized possibilities for growing the real wealth of healthy communities?
2. Is it connecting others of the movement’s millions of leaders who didn’t previously know one another, helping them find common cause and build relationships of mutual trust that allow them to speak honestly from their hearts and to know that they can call on one another for support when needed?
3. Is it creating and expanding liberated social spaces in which people experience the freedom and support to experiment with living the creative, cooperative, self-organizing relationships of the new story they seek to bring into the larger culture?
4. Is it providing a public demonstration of the possibilities of a real-wealth economy?
5. Is it mobilizing support for a rule change that will shift the balance of power from the people and institutions of the Wall Street phantom-wealth economy to the people and institutions of living-wealth Main Street economies?
These are useful guidelines for setting both individual and group priorities. Bear in mind that in a systems-change undertaking of this magnitude, there is no magic bullet and no one is going to make it happen on their own, so don’t be discouraged if the world looks much the same today despite your special and heroic effort yesterday. It took five thousand years to create the mess we are in today. It will take more than a few days to set it right.

Magazine, co-chair of the New Economy Working Group, president of the People-Centered Development Forum, and a founding board member of the Business Alliance for Local Living Economies (BALLE).

Ban ALL GMOs. GMOs are untested, unsafe and dangerous: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=2049
Donate to keep Health Freedom Free: http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189
Interesting Bloomberg article yesterday entitled, Big Bucks at Stake. What is remarkable is what Bloomberg recommends in the article… But first some background. The United States FDA approves GMO foods and feeds without any safety testing of significance. Early on in the process of releasing GMOs, the company which owns the patented gene provides the FDA with whatever edited data it chooses to show that the organism in is “safe”, no matter how weak, contrived or meaningless that data is.
No further safety testing is carried out by the FDA, nor are further safety data reviewed, IF they exist.
But, in the largest involuntary human experiment ever conducted, with zero informed consent possible, the world’s food, as it comes through the US food system, its seed system and its feed system, is contaminated with unlabeled, un-traceable GMOs. Any long term (or, for that matter, short term) effects will never be known because who is eating what GMO gene, promoter virus or bacterial marker sequence is totally unknowable. This is the effect of FDA refusing to require “truthful and not misleading” GMO labeling. In deed, the agency, in a true display of the arrogance of power, believes it has authority to censor even “GMO Free” labels!
At the forthcoming Codex Alimentarius Committee on Food Labeling (May 3-7, Quebec City, Canada), the US will, once again, use it might, military and economic power, to try to prevent GMO labeling anywhere in the world.
The article below neatly sums up many of the dangers we are facing if we allow GMO crops and animals, foods and feeds, to exist in our world. Because their DNA is unstable and contagious, there is, in fact, no long-term co-existence possible between non genetically modified plants, animals, insects and, indeed, people, and the modified ones. Does any company have the right to modify the genetic make up of the planet for profit and control? The Biotech industry, of which Monsanto is a particularly horrifying example (but whose horrors are shared by Bayer Crop Sciences, Syngenta, Pioneer, DuPont, Pfizer and a host of others) believe that they have bought that right by patenting genes. The science upon which these patents rest is totally inaccurate and invalid. None the less, the practice will continue unless, and until, nations and individuals take the science seriously and ban or boycott anything which contains GMO or has been fed GMO, is made with, by or trough GMO technology or profits the companies which own these patents.
But to voluntarily boycott these “Franken Foods” we need to know what products contain GMOs and what products are GMO Free. We pledge to do our due diligence best effort to recommend only GMO free products to help support the work of the Foundation.
There is little time left for those of us who believe that genes cannot be patented (since they are not “new and useful” inventions, but rather simply recombinations of existing DNA data, available in nature and free for anyone to discover) and that the biosphere itself must not be contaminated.
Through Big BioTech’s enormous marketing propaganda campaigns, which include providing large funding (through fees and grants) to industry, government and university scientists alike, tainting them all with unresolved conflicts of interest, it is very difficult to find unbiased information and Codex Alimentarius, of course, contributes to this condition by continually permitting ever-growing encroachments by industrial toxins and the like into the food chain.

There is a great deal that you, as an individual, can do about this direct threat to your health and future, and the future of your children. The first thing you can do is voice your rejection of contaminated foods and corrupt policies which permit and promote them.
If you are not already a member (or if you’ve not been receiving a regular weekly email from us, suggesting that your email provider may be blocking us) please join our Natural Solutions Foundation’s Health Freedom Action eAlert.
Sign up on our Home Page: www.HealthFreedomUSA.org or www.GlobalHealthFreedom.org).
The second action you can take is with your wallet: Make sure that you do not support GMO goods or companies that make it.
The third action, equally as critical as the previous two, is to disseminate this information. Contact Kathy Greene, our Volunteer Coordinator, at Kathy.Greene@usa.net and ask her for an Organizer’s Handbook, filed with helpful information about getting the word out to people who need to hear it.
Thanks for your activism. No one on the planet deserves to have their world contaminated and degraded for greed, by a hand full of ruthless death merchants.
Yours in health and freedom,

Big Bucks at Stake
April 24, 2010 Bloomberg reports:
“At stake are the costs to farmers who produce $80.3 billion a year in corn and soybeans, used in products ranging from Coca-Cola to cattle feed to ethanol. “Monsanto has become such a dominant player in the seed business that producers have real concerns that the price they pay for seed is going to be anywhere near reasonable,” said John Crabtree, a spokesman for the Center for Rural Affairs in Lyons, Nebraska, a nonprofit group that provides services to farm communities. “The fear is that the sky’s the limit.”
These fears are not unfounded when you consider that prices on everything from the seed to the obligatory fertilizers and pesticides that are required to make the GM seeds “grow properly” have skyrocketed.
According to a report by Charles Benbrook, chief scientist at the Organic Center in Boulder, Colorado, the influx of genetically modified seed has steadily ratchet prices upward. Seed used to be fairly inexpensive, in large part due to the practice of planting seed collected and saved from the previous year. With GE seeds, this ancient farming practice is no longer employed and farmers must buy new seed each year.
The 2009 Organic Center report, titled The Magnitude and Impacts of the Biotech and Organic Seed Price Premium, states that farmers who purchase Monsanto’s Roundup Ready 2 soybeans in 2010 will pay 42 percent more per bag than they paid just last year.
This is in stark contrast to the overall rise in soybean seed prices over the last 25 years, which was 63 percent. Between the years of 1975 and 1997, soybean farmers spent four to eight percent of their farm income on seeds. Last year, those who planted GE soybeans spent 16.4 percent of their income on seeds.
The story is the same for GM corn growers, who will pay just over twice the amount for the latest eight-trait “SmartStax” corn seed, compared to those planting conventional seeds. And GE cotton seed now cost nearly 6 times more than conventional. The report shows that the GE seed price premiums FAR exceed the organic seed price premium, across the board, for various crops. This should be an eye opener for anyone who still believes genetically engineered crops are the way to inexpensively feed the world… [Emphasis added – REL]
The only one who is truly benefiting, it seems, is Monsanto, who ended their fiscal year in 2009 with revenue of $11.7 billion. Over $7 billion of that came from sales and licensing of seeds and seed genes. [Emphasis added – REL]
So, is growing GM crops REALLY in the best financial interest of most farmers? Or are they simply being hoodwinked by fancy marketing that promises increased yield and reduced pestilence? Benbrook asks the same question, and has called for further studies to evaluate whether or not GM crop yields warrant the disproportionate difference in price. If previous studies are any indication, I believe the answer is no.
GM Crops Yield Unimpressive Results
In reality, GM crops create previously unimaginable profits for sub-par performance when compared to conventional or organic crops. And when you review the potential danger these crops pose to human and environmental health, the list is so disturbing you could easily say we’re all paying for poison when we buy GM food products. [Emphasis added – REL]
After 30 years of GMO experimentation, the data to shows [All emphasis added below – REL]:
* No increase in yields; on the contrary GM soya has decreased yields by up to 20 percent compared with non-GM soya. Up to 100 percent failures of Bt cotton have been recorded in India. And studies >by scientists from the USDA and the University of Georgia in 2008 found that growing GM cotton in the U.S. can result in a drop in income by up to 40 percent.
* No reduction in pesticides use; on the contrary, USDA data shows that GM crops have increased pesticide use by 50 million pounds from 1996 to 2003 in the U.S., and the use of glyphosate [Most frequently marketed as Monsanto’s dangerous herbicide, Roundup (c) – REL] went up more than 15-fold between 1994 and 2005, along with increases in other herbicides to cope with rising glyphosate resistant superweeds.
* Roundup (C) herbicide is lethal to frogs and toxic to human placental and embryonic cells. Roundup is used in more than 80 percent of all GM crops planted in the world.
* GM crops harm wildlife, as revealed by UK and U.S. studies
* Bt resistant pests and Roundup tolerant superweeds render the two major GM crop traits useless. The evolution of Bt resistant boll-worms worldwide have been confirmed and documented.
* Vast areas of forests, pampas and cerrados have been lost to GM soya in Latin America.
* Epidemic of suicides in the cotton belt of India. According to the National Crime Records Bureau of India, more than 182,900 Indian farmers took their own lives between 1997 and 2007 as a result of failed GM crops. It estimates 46 Indian farmers commit suicide every day.
* Transgene contamination is completely unavoidable, as science has recently revealed that the genome (whether plant, animal or human) is NOT constant and static, which is the scientific base for genetic engineering of plants and animals. Instead, geneticists have discovered that the genome is remarkably dynamic and changeable, and constantly ‘conversing’ and adapting to the environment. This interaction determines which genes are turned on, when, where, by what and how much, and for how long. They’ve also found that the genetic material itself has the ability to be changed according to experience, passing it on to subsequent generations.
* GM food and feed linked to deaths and sicknesses both in the fields in India and in lab tests around the world.
How Can YOU Stop Monsanto from Ruling, and Ruining, the Food Supply?
Allowing Monsanto to monopolize the market could have lethal consequences for all of us. Because not only is Monsanto doing what it can to eliminate competition from other agricultural biotech products, their end game is to do away with conventional seeds, period. As I’ve discussed in many previous articles, this is a threat to human civilization and would spell disaster for the entire planet. Fortunately, you don’t have to be directly involved in the legal or political end of the battle.
You, as an ordinary citizen, still have the power to make perhaps an even GREATER difference in how business will pan out for Monsanto – by steering the market demand toward non-GMO crops and foods. Every time you choose to buy a non-GMO product over a product that contains GM ingredients, you are making a dent in the empire that is Monsanto.
While you’re waiting for the leaders of the world to catch up, take advantage of local sources of organic foods as often as you can. You can also avoid GM foods by:
* Reducing or Eliminating Processed Foods. Some 75 percent of processed foods contain GM ingredients. Use the Non-GMO Shopping Guide, available for free at www.NonGMOShoppingGuide.com.
* Read produce and food labels. When looking at a product label, if any ingredients such as corn flour and meal, dextrin, starch, soy sauce, margarine, and tofu (to name a few) are listed, there’s a good chance it has come from GM corn or soy,unless it bears the USDA organic seal.
* Buy organic produce. Buying organic is currently the best way to ensure that your food has not been genetically modified.
