‘Biofarms’ to Integrate Vaccines, Pharmaceuticals into GMO ‘Biopharmaceutical’ Crops


'The truth really is much stranger than fiction, especially when it comes to the open and admitted future plans of major biotechnology companies. One such case involves a biotech company known as ProdiGene, the officials from which actually faced jail time back in 2002 for contaminating the traditional food supply with ‘biopharmaceutical’ crops that were growing pharmaceuticals and vaccine components associated with AIDS, diabetes, and diarrhea.'

More Expensive than Organic Food - But it Poisons You


'Many of the most committed organic consumers are conscious of the fact that organic food and other products are actually "cheaper" in real terms than conventional food and other items-since industrial agriculture's so-called "cheap" products carry hidden costs, including billions of dollars in annual tax subsidies, and hundreds of billions of dollars in damage to our health, the environment, and climate.'

New Zealand --WAKE UP! Food, illegal? Not in my back yard...

 http://www.islandbreath.org/2009Year/2009-06/090630fascism.jpg

'Warrantless searches of houses and marae for food and seeds, even with guns, are coming to NZ soon thanks to the Food Bill – unless you do something.
The following video shows a SWAT team raiding a health food store in California. The Food Bill paves the way for this to happen in NZ (yes, also with guns, in clause 265 – 1). This site deals with Solutions to this Very Big Problem. Please watch the video, listen to the audio, and read the text and comments. Thank you.


'What is the Food Bill?
- A Government Bill introduced to Parliament in May 2010, which has since passed its first reading and been through a Select Committee review. It is awaiting a second reading as at 20 July. It may be enacted in the near future.

What are the problems with the Food Bill?

- It turns a human right (to grow food and share it) into a government-authorised privilege that can be revoked by the Governor-General.

- It makes it illegal to distribute “food” without authorisation, and it defines “food” in such a way that it includes nutrients, seeds, natural medicines, essential minerals and drinks (including water).'

A National Response to Two FDA Armed Raids on Rawesome




https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3NMMaR-3gojc5rLXAfc_UvPruyPGDtyJa9biOc8BY5K6u7R2OejswghCdCQV80N4Hg5gBDFJC5JY15cyC8IOLLX8k-eoNtKVJoAIT8t4qwhCL-eWHVPhzjdgQvT_EsLq9a5x5ZM9FQIem/s1600/rawesome+foods.jpg





'The two SWAT team raids ordered by the FDA on Rawesome, an organic
food coop in LA, represent “food safety” come home to roost, in all its
vulture reality.  First time, they used armed FBI; the second time,
having faced such still resistance from non-resisting people, they
multiplied their attack using armed LA police, Ventura County Sheriffs,
the California Department of Ag and several other agencies.





People across the country are stunned and enraged, but most are not
aware of the one small thing which has allowed this to occur.  To
understand how key that little detail is, one must go back to how “food
safety” got its power and how it works its magic.'

6 Ways Food is Being Used as a Weapon

 http://www.gamesprays.com/images/icons/food-is-weapon-2186_preview.png


'Because of massive corporate consolidation of agriculture, centrally coordinated global regulations, a devalued commodity-dollar and unrestrained commodity speculation, chemical and genetic modification, and real or manipulated food shortages; there is indeed a war being waged -- with food as the primary weapon.  Understand, this is a not purely a war on food, but rather a war on the general population. Therefore, it is crucial to understand these tactics in order to defend against them.

Here are six ways food is being used to wage war against the population:'

The Theft of Health Rights: Can It Be Stopped?



FDA's Definition of Food: Plate of Pills
'A stunning theft of our rights is happening now—right under our collective noses. We're losing the right to manage our personal health as we see fit. It's a right so basic that no one ever thought to list it among the rights of free speech and assembly. Who could ever have imagined that something so basic might come into question?'

FDA Claims Power to Seize Food Without Evidence of Contamination



'A few hours ago, the Food and Drug Administration declared it no longer needs credible evidence to seize food that may be contaminated. Ignoring the Fourth Amendment entirely, the FDA claims that based on mere suspicion that a food product has been contaminated or mislabeled, and that serious illness or death will result, it can hold the food for 30 days while it then looks for evidence.'

Editor's Note: 'I show in Human Race Get Off Your Knees that the plan to ban the private growing of food using the excuse of 'safety' goes back at least many decades into the early part of the 20th century. In truth, even beyond that.

The idea is to stop the population growing food for themselves so that the only source of what bravely passes for food are the global producers and biotech corporations who are systematically poisoning the world through the cumulative effects of the genetically-modified, chemical-infested shite invariably packaged in plastic so that the food absorbs its poisons, too.'

FDA System Approves Nonexistent Product from Nonexistent Company for Human Testing




'A sting nailed a company the HHS authorized to oversee human drug trials. The absurdities in the application are belly laugh funny, but in their rush to keep the money coming, they approved it. The FDA farms out drug and medical device testing. It’s in the hands of the companies hoping to gain approval for their products, but they must first get approval before doing tests on humans. 

Even here, though, there’s a catch. The FDA doesn’t review the testing plans. That’s done by more for-profit companies, Institutional Review Boards (IRBs). But it gets worse. The IRBs are paid by the companies hoping to gain FDA approval for their products. So, it’s a conflict of interest on top of a conflict of interest.'

Many 'All Natural' Foods Are Actually Heavily Processed


By Dr.Mercola


What Does an "All Natural" Label Claim Really Mean?



'Zero. Zilch. Nada. Zip.

The natural food label on a processed food has no standard definition and really no meaning at all. The term is only regulated on meat and poultry, for which an item labeled natural may not contain any artificial flavors, colors or chemical preservatives.

But in the processed food arena, a "natural" product can be virtually anything -- genetically modified, full of pesticides, made with corn syrup, additives, preservatives and artificial ingredients. Most are also heavily processed.

It is because of this very vagueness that 7-Up is able to claim it's "100% natural" and still be within its legal rights. It's also due to this misleading nature that many consumers are fooled into buying foods labeled as "natural" in the belief they're better for their health, when in reality they can be complete junk.

But you can expect that food manufacturers will continue to use natural label claims for as long as possible. Products labeled as "natural" or "sustainable" account for $50 billion annually, or 8 percent of total retail grocery sales, so don't expect them to disappear from your grocery store anytime soon.'

FDA Raids Amish Farm for Raw Milk

Beware! Amish Raw Milk Terrorists Threaten USA...

'The FDA Gestapo's real mission is to stomp out 'Health Freedom' in America -- under the guise of 'PROTECTION' and 'SAFETY,' of course. In reality the FDA operates as a fascist, 'profit-protection-racket' for Big Pharma and Big Agribusiness.'

--Health Maven

'The FDA will spare no one in their zealous protection of your safety. Apparently, those seemingly harmless Amish people are really dangerous. They must be. What other reason could there be for raiding an Amish farm for the—Gulp! Horrible crime of raw milk! Run for the hills! Those Amish folk just may have the ultimate weapon.'

''Joking aside, the FDA really did try to raid an Amish farm for raw dairy. Rather than retelling the tale, here it is as first told by Deborah Stockton:

'In what used to be a free country it seems the FDA even want the Amish to stop drinking raw milk. In a total disregard for his health freedom, agents of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) came onto the property of Amish farmer Dan Allgyer, without permission, claiming to be conducting an investigation gents Joshua Schafer and Deborah Haney, from the Delaware FDA office, drove past Allgyer’s "No Trespassing" signs and up his driveway almost to his barn, where Allgyer happened to be outside.


'Allgyer approached the car, the agents got out and Allgyer asked them why they were there. They produced a piece of paper, asked Allgyer if he was Dan Allgyer, which Allgyer confirmed, asked him his middle initial and phone number, entered the information on the paper, told Allgyer they were there to do an inspection and started reading the paper to him, saying it gave them jurisdiction to be there.'
