The Root Of All Disease - Condensed Manuscript of E. G. Heinrich's Book

What would you say if many of the world’s most respected health organizations have suggested that a lack of minerals may be the “Root of all Disease”? Minerals control millions of chemical and enzymatic processes which occur in the human body at all times. This knowledge should make us aware of the importance of minerals for mankind’s survival.

UN 'Right to Food' Rapporteur Urges 5 Year Moratorium on Biofuels 8/11/07

United Nations Special Rapporteur on the right to food, Jean

Ziegler, has called for a 5-year moratorium on biofuel
production. This recommendation was contained in his interim report [2] submitted to the UN General Assembly, which met in October 2007. He stressed that rushing to turn food crops - maize, wheat, sugar, palm oil - into fuel for cars, without first examining the impact on global hunger, would be a recipe for disaster.

(US) ALERT:
MILK FROM CLONES TO HIT U.S. MARKET SOON
The Senate is still wrangling over the 2007-2012 Farm Bill. One new consumer-friendly amendment, vehemently opposed by the biotech industry, would force the FDA to reverse its current controversial regulations on milk from cloned animals. Despite widespread opposition from the OCA and other consumer groups, the FDA has approved the commercialization of milk from cloned animals as "safe" and will not require labels. The newly proposed Mikulski amendment to the 2007 Farm Bill would require the FDA to place a temporary moratorium on cloned milk and examine its potential health hazards for animals and humans. We have updated our Farm Bill alert to address this issue. Contact your Senators here:
