It stands to reason, doesn’t it, that if you want people to be sick as long as possible, and as profitably as possible, you would want to make sure that they do not know how to stay well? If you are Big Pharma, or work for them and do their bidding, you will want to criminalize, that’s right, criminalize, telling people about how they can use natural options, like nutrition, to get healthy and stay that way. So what do you do? You convince/buy/rent/bribe state regulators and legislators to do what New Jersey is trying to do right now by passing NJ Assembly Bill A2933 / Senate Bill S1941.
While 46 other states have some sort of Dietitian’s licensing law, New Jersey is trying (like Ohio and a few others) to make Rigistered Dieticians (RDs) the ONLY people, that’s right, the ONLY ones who can discuss food, food components, nutrition, health benefits and other food related concepts and practices with anyone at all under just about any circumstances (“with or without compensation…”). RDs are the people responsible for the diets served in hospitals, nursing homes and other similar institutions. The pitiful lack of nutritional support in those feeding situations should make the point all by itself: Whatever it is that RDs do, it is NOT about the advanced nutrition upon which so many of you rely.
If this bad bill passes, nutrition will belong to these untrained people who will be responsible for something called “Medical nutritional therapy” which, according to the statute, means “nutritional diagnostic, therapeutic and counseling services for the purpose of disease management.”
Would someone please enlighten me what qualifies RDs to practice disease management through nutritional diagnostic, therapeutic or counseling services? Say what? But no one else in a state with this type of law may use the word nutrition, nutritionist, nutrition counselor or similar terms without violating the licensing monoply and provisions of this statue and this profession. Naturopaths, Biochemists, Nutritionists, Environmental Physicians, and all others would be legally prohibited from discussing food or nutrition with people who need or seek this knowledge.
So give nutritional counseling, disease management, diagnostic and therapy to a group of people whose professional activities make it clear that they are deeply ill-suited for this responsibility and you have a guarantee that people will get sicker sooner and stay sicker longer to the abundant profit of the professional illness care industry, created as a distribution system for the left-overs of the Rockefeller oil empire. Remember that when the allopathic medical system was created, most drugs were coal-tar derivitives, that is, chemicals made from the goo left over when petrolium processing was completed. Rockefeller did not believe that the internal combustion engine would consume his output and he wanted to find a productive use for the left-overs.
This is absolutely consistent with Codex and the FDA’s persistent attempts to prohibit the dissemination of any informaiton which links food and food components (including supplements) with health. If you are old enough, you will recall that before the unanimous passage by the US Congress of the 1994 Dietary Supplements Health and Education Act (DSHEA), it was literally illegal to combine the words “Food” and “Health” in the same sentence or on a sign like “Health Food Store”. FDA Marshals would break down such signs and burned such books. Yes, here in the US.
Well, when special interests in Congress tried to make ALL dietary and food supplements illegal, the American public rose up and roared “NO!” with such force that the Congress did an about face and passed the legislation which treats supplements as foods and, as such, as not subject to close regulation. DSHEA is certainly not perfect legislation, but it did give us the right to have whatever dose of whatever supplements we want.
It also gave us the right, which we also have through the First Amendment of the Constitution of These United States, to truthful information about the impact of food and food components on health and the benefits to be derived from them.
The FDA, however, was not deterred in its determination to make sure that you do not have that information. Both domestically, through regulation of so called “health claims” and in Codex through regulation of “advertising” and “health claims”, the FDA still seeks to make it a crime, yes, a crime, for anyone to tell you about the health benefits, supported by science.
47 States (if New Jersey joins their ranks, will also limit speech telling you what helps and what heals. That way, your eating patterns will not reflect healthy choices based on scientific information and you will develop the chronic, preventible epidemic degnerative diseases of under nutrition, as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO): cancer, cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes and obesity. The same five diseases are the major killers of those of us who live in the US, Europe and other developed parts of the world. The same diseases are becoming endemic wherever the American diet becomes prevalent. And, of course, it will come as no surprise to you that cancer, cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes and obesity are the five most productive disease conditions for the illness care industry, keeping hospitals and doctors and, most important, drug companies, afloat and very, very economically bouyant.
You will remember that in my lecture “Nutricide”, (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5266884912495233634) I defined that word as
1. The death of the information about the relationship between health and food and
2. The death of large populations through the manipulation of the quality and availability of food.
You can view that lecture for free on our website, www.HealthFreedomUSA.org, our YouTube channel, www.Youtube.com/naturalsolutions or our special media page, www.NaturalSolutionsMedia.TV.
You can also purchase this remarkable disc (http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/index.php?page_id=156) which also includes a lecture on how to take action by General Stubblebine and a special discussion of how the Codex Two Step Process can be used to protect any country in the world against any of the disastrous and ill-advised standards and guidelines created by Codex. Of course, the Codex eBook (http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/index.php?page_id=220) is an example of how that Two Step Process works in detail and is the same document presented to Codex delegates, Ministers of Health and other government officials and heads of state all over the world by the Natural Solutions Foundation.

Congress to the Rescue, Three At A Time
Three members of Congress have taken brave and critically important steps to protect the rights that New Jersey, 46 other states and the FDA are trying to take away from you. Denis Kucinich (D-OH), Ron Paul (R-TX) and Chris Cannon (R-UT) are on our side with 6 bills of great importance to you.
Your Congressmen and women need to know that these issues are hot buttons for you that you care enough about to write to them on and to mobilize your friends and contacts to do the same. These are deeply important issues.
You know that we spend a good deal of effort bringing your concerns to the US Congress and asking you to do the same through powerful and impactful Action Alerts. Right now there are at least 6 good bills before Congress to protect your right to know and your right to speak/write/learn about the science of food and health! It is essential that you take a moment to send your Congressmen and women your urgent direction to support mandatory safety assessment and labeling of GM foods here in the US as other countries in the world, NOW INCLUDING SOUTH AFRICA!, require.
Here is a summary of these exceptionally important bills:
- H.R. 6636, The Genetically Engineered Food Right To Know Act, which would require mandatory labeling of all foods that contain or are produced with GM material. No such labeling is permitted at this time in the US and the FDA even seeks to forbid truthful “GM Free” labeling!.
- H.R. 6635, The Genetically Engineered Safety Act, which would require that GE foods follow a food safety review process to prevent contamination of food supplies by pharmaceutical and industrial crops. This Act would also require that the FDA screen all GE foods to ensure they are safe for human consumption. No such safety review is permitted at this time in the US.
- H.R. 6637, The Genetically Engineered Technology Farmer Protection Act, places liability from the impacts of GM crops on the biotechnology companies that created the GMOs, and protects farmers from lawsuits by biotechnology companies. No such liability exists at this time for pharmaceutical plants and animals once approval is granted by the acting agencies for the organism and the same is true for non drug modifications as well.
Click here (https://hq-salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/hq/edit.jsp?table=email_blast&key=1114601#) to support these bills and let your legislators know that you want their co-sponsorhip now. It’s us against the Bio Tech industry, I am afraid. They have money. We have voices. Let’s use them!
Right now there are two excellent bills sponsored by Ron Paul (R-TX) and Chris Cannon (R-UT) before Congress which protect your right to know about the relationship between health and food! Sad that we need these protections, but how wonderful that some heroes in Congress is willing to go toe to toe with the powerful, but woefully dysfunctional and destructive FDA!
Click here (https://hq-salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/hq/edit.jsp?table=email_blast&key=1114601#) to pressure your Congressional legislators to support and co-sponsor Denis Kuchinch’s 3 excellent bills mandating safety studies and labeling for Genetically Modified foods. If you would like to learn more about the dangers of GM foods (and there are many), go to www.HealthFreedomUSA.org, click on the Health Freedom Blog button (second button down on left), then click on GMOs on the right hand index and you will be in the Natural Solutions Foundation’s extensive Health Freedom Blog GM Files.
Both Ron Paul (R-TX) and Chris Cannon (R-UT) are deeply concerned about your constitutional and personal right to have accurate health information. Both of them have introduced bills to protect those rights and freedoms. They need your help.
Click here(https://hq-salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/hq/campaign/edit.jsp?table=campaign&key=1035) to urge co-sponsorship and support of Ron Paul’s HR 2117 which supports your right to know what science has to say about food and health. Click here (http://www.thomas.gov/cgi-bin/query/C?c110:./temp/~c110P0VTSM) to read that legislation.
Chris Cannon is working hard to protect your right to reasonable, scientificly correct health claims. Here is what Congressman Cannon had to say to his colleagues about HR 7120, the Science Free Speech Act, when he introduced it:
“Please review the material on attachment, HR 7120, the Science Free Speech Act, providing access to truthful & not misleading scientific literature for nutrients in foods and dietary supplements to consumers from manufacturers and distributers. This includes reference to a disease or disease condition.
Like DSHEA, which is a “health and education” Act, passage of this bill in the next Congress, would and will stimulate more solid research on the relationship of nutrients and nutrition in disease treatment. Good nutrition is the essence of the building blocks for healthy protoplasm, longevity, and quality of life, not drugs, (that can relieve acute medical emergencies).
If the medical profession were and would become interested in this paradigm shift towards a true healthcare system, and begin to abandon dangerous drugs, the dire effects, of “polypharmacy”, both the health of the population, and the health of the American economy, would be enhanced.
Let us add significant ‘healthcare’ to medical care.”

This is no time for the faint of heart. Free speech, freedom and free flow of informaiton are at stake.
Take action and tell everyone you know to do the same. It is our freedoms and our health which are at stake. Nothing less. Mouse Warriors! The time for action is here.
EAT LOCALLY, FIGHT GLOBALLY
As you may know, General Bert and I are based in Panama right now in order to bring the Natural Solutions Foundation’s Valley of the Moon Eco Community Demonstration Project, complete with its BeyondOrganic, BioDynamic, Zero Emissions (TM) Farm and Farm School, natural health spa facility, homes and hotel facilities, community center, to birth and reality. If you are interested in this profound development of the Foundation’s International Decade of Nutrition, visit www.NaturalSolutionsFoundation.org. We are literally reclaiming food production for people and for farmers who feed them.
We selected Panama for a variety of reasons, not the least of which was the extraordinary fertility of the land in the beautiful, bountiful, temperate Chiriqui Highlands and the stability of the government and economic system here. But Panama is not paradise and there are laws which are not very forward looking, like the official definition of electromagnetic safety: if you are more than 6 meters – 18 feet! – from the base of a cell tower, you are “safe,” by definition. The fact that Sweden says that the first level of danger exists in a circle with a diameter of 3 km around a cell tower means nothing here: 18 feet and that’s that.
So imagine our horror when a neighbor came by to ask us if we would come to a meeting about the huge cell tower being built literally down the street from us. Of course we would. Although most of the meeting was conducted in Spanish, we made out enough to understand that this tower was one of 400 being built across Panama for a new cell system. We gave our advice on how to organize this community against the cell tower, including using Youtube.com to get the word out.
Well, I am proud to tell you that through our joint efforts, the cell tower will not be finished! The 10 children under 5 within about 200 feet of the tower’s base do not have to worry that their immune systems will be crushed under the continuous toxic energy output of the tower! Our tactics and collaboration stopped the construction!
Local action with clever tactics and joined hands, raised voices and determination can work near miracles.
Eat/Act/Organize Locally but consider the big picture and be part of it! That’s what the Natural Solutions Foundation does. And we are proud that you are doing it with us.
There’s another side to this community development. Coffee. Now I love coffee and so does General Bert. In fact, we travel with a supply of organic coffee and a coffee press so that we can have some clean brew every single morning. Given where we go on Codex business, it is a small comfort that means a lot to us. But that is not why we are talking coffee here.
We came to Panama to accomplish the development of a seed community and one of the first things we learned was that coffee, the black gold of Central America, is regularly poisoned by synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and, most of all, fungicides. Ferttilizers can be replaced by more expensive, but more effective, fish meal and compost plus nutrient minerals. The farmers know how to eliminate the herbicides like glyphosate (Roundup TM) – use a machete to trim the grass under the coffee trees. They know how to avoid pesticides: use pepper spray and other natural pest control. What they do not know how to avoid is fungicides since ‘ojo de gallo,’ eye of the rooster, destroys their crops at a disastrous level. In fact, in Costa Rica, 50% of the crop is destroyed each year by this coffee plant plague.
Well, I am a natural physician and have treated mold in people for a long time. I think I know how to do that pretty well so I set a goal for us of finding a natural, wholesome and organic way of curing this problem for ever and sharing that with the farmers in the coffee trade. Well, we personally bought a small coffee finca so that we could experiment without threatening the livelihood of subsistence farmers until we had pefected our method. After all, if a farmer’s kids will go hungry because we don’t have our formula quite right and his crop is destroyed inspite of our formula, that would not be acceptable to any of us.
Imagine our delight and joy when we learned that there is a farmer here who is already doing the very thing that we thought would take us several years to perfect: using totally natural means to control, to kill, to eliminate ojo de gallor! We went to see him as soon as we could arrange a visit. We found a very smart, very poor farmer who had figured it out and was making the stuff to spray on the plants AND the fertilizer to feed them. That’s the good news. The bad news is that he makes the fungus control spray in a plastic 55 gallon drum. One 55 gallon drum becuase he is too poor to make more!
We agreed with each other that we could bring exposure and dissemination to his wonderful innovation and he could bring experience and the secret formula to our foundation’s determination to find natural solutions like this one to the problems that keep food contamianted and keep farmers poor.
He agreed to make enough to treat our coffe farm and we went to see how it was working last week. It was working beautifully. We have to see what happens through the harvest, which is starting now, but what a beginning!
If you want some of our wonderful, chemical free, high altitude specialty Panamanian coffee, produced with the help of the world-renowned Hartmann family, you can have some!

Going to Codex…
Speaking of our co-trustee Ralph, you can read his Vitamin Lawyer Health Freedom Blog entry about his trip last week to Washington to attend the US Codex Delegation meeting, with link to a copy of ou White Paper comments he submitted to the Delegates, telling them in no uncertain terms that we expect the US Delegation to Codex to conform to US law — we do not want our freedoms “HARMonized” to international restrictions! It’s easy to find the Health Freedom Bogs. Just Google “Health Freedom Blog” and you will find my Health Freedom Blog and Ralph’s blog in the #1 and #2 position… we’re there because of your support!
The blog entry: http://vitaminlawyerhealthfreedom.blogspot.com/2008/09/us-codex-delegation-upbraded-for.html
Our comments to the Codex Delegation: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/index.php?p=1059
With your support we sent Ralph to Washington last week. The next Codex meeting is rather further away: in early November the Codex Committee on Nutritional Foods for Speacial Dietary Uses (CCNFSDU) meets in South Africa. Since the Foundation was formed in 2004 we have attended nearly every Codex meeting we could, offering a voice for health and freedom. Due to the state of the economy, our donations are this quarter less than half what they were last year. Without your generous emergency help we will not be able to go to the Codex meeting this time, leaving your voices unheard.
PLEASE, PLEASE, make any donation you can afford to help us NOW.
