Guest guest Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 ....and from there we can expand to the myth of cholesterol, statins.... " cholesterol comes from your food " . Yeah. Right. When the " nutritional " information I'd been following started falling like a house-of-cards - information I'd received via the mainstream media and medical - was all found to be faulty, I discovered that every single facet of my diet was wrong, wrong, wrong, and not only wrong, but downright unhealthy and deadly. That's when I became determined to do my own research and never trust anyone again. Even Fallon...as much as I really trust and respect her now....I spent several years making sure she wasn't just another reiteration of the myths and lies. It goes on and on and on, doesn't it. Follow the money, like you've pointed out before. Thanks for your input and ideas, Joe..means a lot....... Sharon, NH > > > You really nailed it, Sharon.

It would take thousands and thousands of pages more for Fallon & WAPF to totally explain the truth of their views - a huge task, so that is why your questions, your desire to dig in at a deeper level are SO IMPORTANT. We need everyone doing what you're doing, wanting answers and not accepting ideas at face-value, Anne. Don't stop doing that. There are many of us who have been defending the truth for years now and, yes, it will be increasingly more important in the coming days. There are battles across this country for the RIGHT just to produce and buy REAL food. Here's a real-life application of how knowing the difference between Pasteur & Bechamp could be crucial to our survival, NOT long-term but RIGHT NOW. If WeThePeople grasped the idiocy of what is being done in California this summer - that a squirrel or deer walking through a field is NOT dangerous - the gov't wouldn't have a leg to stand on. Instead, people are misinformed that they are being protected by this idiocy....can't think of a better word. We'd all better be really, really concerned about this latest craziness in the battle against real food, and it begins with educating ourselves to discern the difference between Truth & Lies: Published on Monday, July 13, 2009 by The San Francisco Chronicle Crops, Ponds Destroyed in Quest for Food Safety by Carolyn Lochhead WASHINGTON - Dick Peixoto planted hedges of fennel and flowering cilantro around his organic vegetable fields in the Pajaro Valley near ville to harbor beneficial insects, an alternative to pesticides. Farmworkers harvest romaine lettuce to be shipped directly to market at Lakeside Organic Gardens Farm in ville. ( Chinn / The Chronicle)He has since ripped out such plants in the name of food safety, because his big customers demand sterile buffers around his crops. No vegetation. No water. No wildlife of any kind. " *I was driving by a field where a squirrel fed off the end of the field, and so 30 feet in we had to destroy the crop, " he said. " On one field where a deer walked through, didn't eat anything, just walked through and you could see the tracks, we had to take out 30 feet on each side of the tracks and annihilate the crop. " * In the verdant farmland surrounding Monterey Bay, a national marine sanctuary and one of the world's biological jewels,* scorched-earth strategies are being imposed on hundreds of thousands of acres in the quest for an antiseptic field of greens. And the scheme is about to go national.* Invisible to a public that sees only the headlines of the latest food-safety scare - spinach, peppers and now cookie dough - ponds are being poisoned and bulldozed. Vegetation harboring pollinators and filtering storm runoff is being cleared. Fences and poison baits line wildlife corridors. Birds, frogs, mice and deer - and anything that shelters them - are caught in a raging battle in the Salinas Valley against E. coli O157:H7, a lethal, food-borne bacteria. In pending legislation and in proposed federal regulations, the push for food safety butts up against the movement toward biologically diverse farming methods, while evidence suggests that industrial agriculture may be the bigger culprit. 'Foolhardy' approach " Sanitizing American agriculture, aside from being impossible, is foolhardy, " said UC Berkeley food guru Pollan, who most recently made his case for smaller-scale farming in the documentary film " Food, Inc. " " You have to think about what's the logical end point of looking at food this way. It's food grown indoors hydroponically.
