Vitamins Dont Work – Aspartame and Sucralose is Fine

Food Supplements are Big business in America. In the year 2000 Americans ALONE spent more than 16 BILLION in supplements.IN 1994 Americans spent 8.8 BiLLION! Thats double in only six years! Multi vitamin supplements are the most popular and most people believe they contribute to good health.

Americans are skeptical about people (the Government) criticizing their supplements.Nearly half of Americans surveyed believed physicians are prejudiced against use of supplements and dont understand them.

People dont trust the government when it comes to advice on supplements either.Approximately 70% of people said they would continue to use a supplement even if a government agency ( such as the goold ole Food And Drug Administration or FDA) said it was ineffective! (strength Cond J. DEC 2002; ARCH.INT. MED.,161:805-810,2001)

This study is about 8 years old but I tend to believe nothing has changed. If the FDA told you to quit taking your vitamins yet approve Sucralose,aspartame and artificial flavours and colors are all slammed down your throat for consumption how do you explain that?

Dont get me wrong I love my Doctor hes’ a good guy and means well for me but this isnt about the little family practictioner. this is about the big conglomerations that are not making millions their making BILLIONS on selling this shit and then selling more shit to cure the problems they created in the first place…

What do you think Am I an idiot?

[Rob’s Note: I found this little comment in a note on facebook and thought it quite appropriate seeing as how a recent news story was advising doctors to stop recommending vitamin supplements to their patients because they were shown to not be effective.

Top Fruits For Vitamin C Content

When most people are under the weather, they reach for NeoCitran or their trusty Vitamin C tablets and echinicia. There are a number of reasons not to use Vitamin C products because of the possible damage they can do to your health; what was once considered to be the norm may well be contributing to the problem. Darlene and I choose the practice of reducing our food intake and increase Vitamin C through fresh fruits in addition to our staple Sunrider Vitafruit. This way we reduce the load on our digestive systems and increase Vitamin C through food. Today happens to be one of those days, so I thought I’d do a little research about vitamin C containing fruit.

Without doing the research and simply going from memory, I’d have to guess Oranges and Kiwi as being the highest.

Here’s what I found out. According to Dr Sears,
vitamin c fruits

Top 7 Fruits For Vitamin C Content

  1. Guava, 1 medium, 165 mg
  2. Papaya, 1 cup, 87 mg
  3. Strawberries, 1 cup, 84 mg
  4. Kiwi, 1 medium, 74 mg
  5. Cantaloupe, 1 cup, 68 mg
  6. Orange, 1 medium, 75 mg
  7. Grapefruit, half, 42 mg

My Oranges and Kiwi come in at number 4 and 6. Why I didn’t think of grapefruit I don’t know. Guava happens to be the fruit that is highest in Vitamin C.

How Codex Alimentarius Will End Your Ability To Buy Vitamins

Codex Alimentarius means “food rules” in Latin. The organization was born in 1962 when the UN established the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) as a “Trade Commission”. It was created to regulate, and thus control, every aspect of how food and nutritional supplements are produced and sold to the consumer. It is solely about trade and the profits of multi-national corporations.

Watch this video and become informed about what’s happening in the world and how Codex Alimentarius may affect your life and freedom of choice. The vitamin C you’ve come to enjoy and expect as a natural part of your daily life will soon become illegal.

I do not know the source of the video. If you can help, I’d love to cite the source, just leave a comment with details please.

For more information about codex, have a look at this video about Codex Alimentarius by Dr. Rima E. Laibow.

Codex Alimentarius – The End Of Natural Health Vitamins and Herbs

Codex Alimentarius is a threat to the freedom of people to choose natural healing and alternative medicine and nutrition. Ratified by the World Health Organization, and going into Law in the United States in 2009, the threat to health freedom has never been greater. This will mean the end of anything natural, anything organic and the end of the ability for you to decide what natural products you put in your mouth. This means then end of choice and complete control of supplements, vitamins and herbs to pharmaceuticals. Codex Alimentarius is about the loss of freedom of choice.

This is the first part of a series of talks by Dr. Rima Laibow MD, available on DVD from the Natural Solutions Foundation, an non-profit organization dedicated to educating people about how to stop Codex Alimentarius from taking away our right to freely choose nutritional health

[google -5266884912495233634]

Did you know that … under Codex, every dairy cow on the planet must be treated with Monsanto’s recombinant bovine growth hormone?

Did you know that … under Codex, every animal used for food on the planet, whether it has fins, feet, or feathers, every animal on the planet must be treated with antibiotics and must be treated with growth hormones.

Did you know that … Codex requires – mandates that all foods be irradiated, unless it’s eaten locally and raw. All food including organic. So is it still organic?

Here are the first 6 of 14 points provide you with understanding about Codex Alimentarius – health freedom threat number one.


1. Consumer Protection? Unfortunately Not

The first step to understanding Codex Alimentarius is to realize that it has absolutely nothing to do with “consumer protection”. That’s propaganda for the sake of getting people and Congress to yield to its implementation.

2. Says Who?
Rima E. Laibow, M.D. is a successful natural medicine physician who graduated from Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 1970. Dr. Laibow has studied more than 16,000 pages of Codex Alimentarius documentation. Her conclusion? Codex Alimentarius is a very serious threat to health freedom. We must take it seriously.

3. Meaning of Name and History of Organization
“Codex Alimentarius” means “food rules” in Latin. The organization was born in 1962 when the UN established the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) as a “Trade Commission”. It was created to regulate, and thus control, every aspect of how food and nutritional supplements are produced and sold to the consumer. It is solely about trade and the profits of multi-national corporations.

4. Bolstering Profits of Pharmaceutical Industry
The more natural health products people use, the fewer drugs they use. Millions are turning to natural health. Big Pharma fears this as it would diminish profits. Codex is designed to protect Big Pharma profits by eliminating natural health products and treatments. Health food stores and wellness companies would be hit hard.

5. Codex Alimentarius is Unscientific
Codex is unscientific because it classifies nutrients as toxins and uses “Risk Assessment” to set ultra low so-called “safe upper limits” for them. Risk Assessment is a branch of Toxicology, the science for assessing toxins. The proper science for assessing nutrients is Biochemistry. Codex does not use Biochemistry.

6. Based on Tyrannical Napoleonic Legal Code
Codex is based on the Napoleonic Code, dating back to Bonaparte. Under this code, anything not explicitly permitted is automatically forbidden. Under Common Law (our system), something does not have to be explicitly permitted to be legal. The tyrannical Napoleonic Code allows the banning of natural health options by default.
