Salt has long been a treasured food staple. Far from being harmful, high-quality salt is actually essential for life, but in the United States and many other developed countries salt has been vilified as a primary cause of high blood pressure and heart disease. Read more…
We are finally dispelling the myth of the salt/heart link. What cause congestive heart failure is mercury in your dental fillings and vaccines.

In this report from the Guardianabout a group of poverty-stricken Indian rice and potato farmers who harvested confirmed world-record yields of rice and potatoes. Best of all: They did it completely sans-GMOs or even chemicals of any kind. Read more…
The genetically engineered flavor enhancers work by triggering taste receptors on your tongue, effectively tricking your taste buds into sensing sweetness, saltiness, or “coolness”. We will have a generation of humanity who will be cultivated not be able to trust their senses.
The tongue of a foetus was used to develop a technology that could “taste” how sweet, sour, salty etc. They developed a profound compound whose patent papers show the size of the compound being like half of a copy paper. The consideration we are having is that were there any long term studies? How senomyx (unlabeled) works is that this compound in the product affects the taste buds. So instead of sugar, this compound is put in the product and fools your tongue to think their is sugar in the product but there is not…so no sugar calories. However, who is to say that this compound won’t destroy the taste buds with its repeated, unnnatural assault and leave our tastebuds damaged. We enjoy food and drink…we really enjoy taste so much that we overeat because though our stomach is full our mouths want some delight. What would the world seems like if we lost our tastebuds due to this ubiquitous unnatural assault? I have put in a FOIA request for a copy of their long term test that should have been done for FDA approval.
The biotech company Senomyx creates novel flavor enhancing compounds for the processed food industry in order to make foods and beverages that taste good while reducing sugar and salt content. Financiers include Pepsi Co., Ajinomoto Co. (the maker of aspartame and meat glue), Nestlé and others.

Synopsis:
Aborted cells are used in the development of artificial flavor enhancers by biotech company Senomyx, with which PepsiCo signed a four-year, $30 million agreement in 2010 for research and development. No Pepsi products containing Senonymx flavor enhancers should be expected until 2013

VLA Comment: Quote from Bittermyx (Senomyx) “Our scientists have identified the function of 22 bitter taste receptors responsible for sending the bitter taste signals in many API products used in OTC and prescription drugs. Leveraging this knowledge, Senomyx has developed a comprehensive bitter receptor profile to more effectively screen APIs and to identify the specific bitter receptors associated with bitter taste of a given API”.
You see, they are affecting the receptors on our tongues, basically without our knowledge or permission. http://www.senomyx.com/api-program/
VLA Comment: Apparently, Cog for Life has done “extensive research” on the issue and is assured that there is no fetal DNA or cloned human DNA in the final products as the technology using fetal cells were just to identify the taste receptors in order to make “chemical compounds” to alter and fool our tastebuds. Although, apparently, except for using fetal cells of healthy but aborted babies to discover the mechanism of taste receptors, the final aim was to develope chemical compounds to alter our tastebuds. My question is how good is that for our species that we can no longer can trust our God given senses? And moreover, are these chemical compounds poisonous, carcinogenic or ultimately destructive to the organic tastebud receptors?
In the course of analysis to identify potential allergens in GMO crops, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has belatedly discovered that the most common genetic regulatory sequence in commercial GMOs also encodes a significant fragment of a viral gene (Podevin and du Jardin 2012).
This finding has serious ramifications for crop biotechnology and its regulation, but possibly even greater ones for consumers and farmers. This is because there are clear indications that this viral gene (called Gene VI) might not be safe for human consumption. It also may disturb the normal functioning of crops, including their natural pest resistance. Read more…

Off and on over the last three years or so, his chickens have been eating a specially milled diet laced with oregano oil and a touch of cinnamon. Mr. Sechler swears by the concoction as a way to fight off bacterial diseases that plague meat and poultry producers without resorting to antibiotics, which some experts say can be detrimental to the humans who eat the meat. Products at Bell & Evans, based in this town about 30 miles east of Harrisburg, have long been free of antibiotics, contributing to the company’s financial success as consumers have demanded purer foods.
But Mr. Sechler said that nothing he had used as a substitute in the past worked as well as oregano oil. Read more…
