			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the news yesterday, the headlines read &#8220;Cancer to Surpass Heart Disease as World&#8217;s Leading Killer&#8221;<br />
<a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/12/09/AR2008120901814.html" target="_blank"> Read article here</a></p>
<p>Based on the direction of the USDA and FDA, I believe it.</p>
<p>Just this last year, the FDA increased the allowable amount of glyphosate ( the active ingredient in RoundUp weed killer) by 6000% for sugar beets &#8211; just as Mansanto released its genetically altered &#8220;RoundUp ready&#8221; sugar beet for introduction to the BigAg corporations for planting and distribution. All with the approval nod from the USDA. And did you know that 50% of the refined sugar in the US omes from the sugar beet?</p>
<p>Coincidence? I think not. The FDA and USDA, instead of protecting the American public by closely monitoring the food chain, and stopping bio-engineering of foods, has welcomed these technologies and the chemical defoliants and fertilizers that are most likely to blame for muich of the cancer spreading through the Amarican people. I have termed this phenomena &#8220;Poison for Profits&#8221;.</p>
<p>At the same time, the FDA has gone on a &#8220;witch hunt&#8221; to close down all of the herbal rememdy companies out there &#8211; &#8220;snake oil salesmen&#8221; they call them, out to defraud the public. While this is true to some degree, the <em>real reason</em> the FDA wants to shut them down is because if people saw the real benefit in homeopathic and other natural methods of healing, the grants and funding that come from the Lilly, Mansanto and other big pharmaceutical and chemical companies would dry up.</p>
<p>It isn&#8217;t about our health &#8211; it&#8217;s about money.</p>
<p>Did you know that <em>even if  our customers write reviews on our website saying that a product  heals, or softens their skin, we can&#8217;t print it because then we are making claims (indirectly) and can be sued by the FDA?</em></p>
<p>So, if you try our lotion, lotion bars, dinosaur balm, lip balms or body butters, and they do any of those things, we can&#8217;t say that they did. We would have to spend over $1 million to prove it by doing the research and testing, and then it would be classed as a drug, and we would have to change everything we do.</p>
<p>But, according to another article today, 38% of adults are now seeking alternative medical help -<br />

why? Because the American public isn&#8217;t as stupid as the FDA ad USDA think &#8211; and we have had enough of spending thousands of dollars for &#8220;health care&#8221; that leaves us wanting, and usually with worse symptoms than those we came into the doctor&#8217;s office with!</p>
<p>TO your health,</p>
