Action Alert: Genetically Modified Frankenfish!

Alliance for Natural Health USA
Coming to you soon—and you probably won’t know that you’re eating it.

Genetically modified salmon—the first GMO animal for human consumption—is reaching the final stages in its approval. Most terrifying: they might not have to tell us if our fish is GM or not!

This week the FDA announced a 60-day period of consultation and public hearings over whether to permit a genetically modified strain of salmon (“frankenfish” to its critics) to be eaten by humans. The approval process could take less than a year, and if it gets the green light the fish could be on the market in eighteen months.

There are two sets of hearings: whether the FDA should approve this “new animal drug application,” and whether the fish (if approved) must be labeled as genetically engineered or not. Because it is new ground for the FDA and there are no regulations about genetically engineered animals, it is being evaluated as if it were an animal treated with drugs.....Read more

FOOD POLICE TARGET TWO-YEAR OLD, do these social engineering misfits get any worse?

Two-year-old Jack Ormisher was left in tears as nursery school staff confiscated his “unhealthy” cheese sandwich.

The Ideal Blood Sugar

Bring up "ideal" blood sugar and you bring out a bag of misconceptions and incredible contradic- tions worthy of TV news magazine coverage. In one report1 we discover what is colorfully called the "panic ranges" of blood sugar, anything below 50 mg% and over 400 mg%, but the nonlethal spread for blood sugar is said to extend from 20 to 1500 mg%.2

There are also all sorts of semantic shenanigans. For instance, we are assured that the so-called normal blood sugar is anything less than either 115 mg%3 or 140 mg%.4-6 Taking such statements literally, zero must be acceptable! Also, while we are here using blood sugar and blood glucose as synonyms, there are real and measurable differences....Read full article

(NaturalNews) – For years, natural health proponents have been sounding the alarm about the dangers of new drugs being pushed on consumers. But is that a one-sided, inaccurate view? Not at all.
