Wise Cooks Avoid Non-Stick Cookware

Cookware linked to Low Birth Weight - Natural Awakenings, November 2007, Issue.

Evidence is mounting that wise cooks stay away from non-stick cookware.

Researchers from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health have found that exposure of developing human fetuses to chemical compounds often used in non-stick cookware and in some food packaging may reduce birth weight and size.

The study, recently published in the journal, Environmental Health Perspectives, echoes cautions previously issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Environmental Working Group (EWG).

Last year, the EPA asked several companies to work toward the elimination of PFOA, a likely carcinogen found in non-stick surfaces, by 2015. Some studies have shown that the chemical is now present at low levels in the bloodstream of 9 out of 10 Americans. Watchdog EWG, also advises consumers to stay away from non-stick cookware.

Legally Avoiding Immunizations

Dr. Mark Nesselson, a New York pediatrician who conspired with families to get their children into school without state-mandated vaccinations, has been fined $10,000 and told he can practice only under supervision. Dr. Nesselson admitted to falsifying forms for four children in two families, and later admitted that he had done the same for a handful of other families over the years.

The parents of his patients, who knew Nesselson was falsifying the forms, were concerned about the potential adverse health effects of vaccines.

Nesselson began to question the safety of vaccines in the 1990’s, after seeing many autistic children whose parents said that the onset of the disorder coincided with vaccinations.

Nesselson’s actions were discovered after he moved to Hawaii two years ago and gave medical records to his patients' parents to take to their new doctors. A new pediatrician seen by two families turned Nesselson in.

There are two basic axioms you should never forget. They are the rock upon which all your actions are based.

1. Nobody, anywhere or any time and under any circumstances has the right or power in this country to immunize you or your children against your will and conviction. If they attempt to do so, you can legally charge them with "assault with a deadly weapon" and have the full resources of our laws behind you.

2.  At all times in attempting to avoid unwanted immunization, you have the Law of the Land behind you. Those who would try to vaccinate you against your will are on very shaky ground. Into every compulsory immunization law in America are written legal exceptions and waivers which are there specifically to protect you from the attempted tyranny of officialdom. It is not only your right, but your obligation to use them, if this is what your conscience tells you.

Fun with Club Soda and Baked Beans

Fun with Club Soda and Baked Beans
by Chet Day

Wanna make a poor man's lava lamp? Fill a glass with club soda and drop in a couple of raisins. The carbonation will cause the raisins to repeatedly bob to the surface and then sink again.

Finally, a tip from my childhood when we were very poor. We never could afford bubble bath solution, so Ma used to serve a big pot of baked beans for Saturday evening dinner. That way we children had Saturday night bubble baths every week of the year, just like the Vanderbilts.

A Warning about "Organic" Salmon

Something is fishy about the farmed salmon being labeled as “organic” in your supermarket. When most people see the organic label, they think of a superior product to conventionally raised varieties, from a health, environmental and animal welfare perspective.

In reality, there is not much difference between conventional farm-raised salmon and its organic counterpart. For instance: http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2007/12/15/why-quot-organic-quot-farmed-salmon-is-causing-a-nasty-smell.aspx

Dispelling the Raw Food Myths

Recently I spent 30 minutes on the phone talking to a friend of mine who was interested in the raw food diet and something magical happened. I hadn't spoken to him in quite some time, and while my health was getting better, his health was deteriorating. So after giving him the inside scoop of the diet, he came back at me with a series of concerns...

• How do I get protein in my diet?
• It's too expensive!
• I can't cook my food?
• I can only eat raw foods?

Everything that he heard and that most likely you have heard IS ALL WRONG! These could not be farther from the truth, so I decided to make a quick video for you "dispelling" the raw food myths. Take a look at this video and let me know what you think. I'd love to hear your feedback.
