HIPPIES NO SLOUCHES

HIPPIES NO SLOUCHES

Perhaps hippies were right, they do know where it's at.

They also spawned some very fine environmentalists and have been touting the values of natural foods for years. I see in the news that Pepsico, owner of the Gatorade trademark have announced that they will be removing the ingredient in Gatorade that is brominated vegetable oil, which Mountain dew also contains. This substance is actually patented as a fire retardant and is banned in Japan and the European Union. This comes after the company was pressured by the Sports community.  Pepsico has definitely made a step in the right direction there.

Now if only the rest of the food, snack makers, and drink makers would follow suit that easily and get rid of GMO's and particularly make the connection that Aspartame is not in any way beneficial to ones health and in fact detrimental to having good health. Chocolate laced with GMO soy bean oil has me and many others cutting back on chocolate and even avoiding it when it's known to have GMO in it.

Sugar is absolutely the lesser evil. Yes,white refined sugar is not good for you. When I say sugar I mean raw natural cane sugar and any products that need sweetening should look no further than that, honey or molasses. Anything natural.

Diet pop is the biggest joke on the planet. Loaded with Aspartame, this stuff can actually help you to gain weight and develop some serious illnesses. I shudder everytime I see someone drinking diet pop. Educated people usually have a good handle on eating and drinking well and healthy, this being the exception.

More people need to band together to get the point across that natural and organic foods lend themselves to longevity and promote good health. Educate yourself against what companies like Monsanto are trying to do and join the movement against this evil tyranny bent on turning everyone into a chemically induced zombie state ripe for being brainwashed,malleable and doing exactly what your government asks of you without question. Does this sound far fetched? I and many other think not!
Keep in mind that cancer did not exist until man started introducing facory made foods full of chemicals.

Give me natural and make it affordable. Quit trying to shove toxic chemicals down our throats every time we turn around. If your government leaders really cared about your well being, there would be no such thing as Aspartame for human consumption. That goes for both the FDA and Health Canada.Long live the hippies and their ideals. Stamp out chemical additives known to be harmful. At the end of the day, it's all up to you.

Longevity

Longevity is something we hopefully gain by having a proper education of what is good for us what is not and other mitigating factors including luck and fate. It wasn't as long ago as you might think that cancer was non existent. Back then there were no man made chemicals and people by the grace of God ate wholesome natural foods free of any chemicals. A lot of the earliest chemicals we used were later banned after more modern research techniques and timed exposure revealed serious side effects to humans and animals from their use. Today the use of chemicals is out of hand. Every drug company you have ever heard of also makes pesticides for crops. These pesticides are very dangerous and some very unstable and reactive. The money that drug companies make from pesticides may even exceed what they profit from drugs.


Agencies that regulate and deem certain chemicals are safe for us to consume or be exposed to are prone to both make mistakes and seriously misjudge the consequences of their release for use. Many studies are clouded by other interfering bodies not limited to kickbacks and other illegal and immoral influence. If it's true that money talks, then drug companies must have a loud and persuasive voice. 


Aspartame the artificial sweetener in many products, has been the subject of controversy for ages including circulation of misleading facts. It's chemical name is ( (Methyl Ester ) and is an ( Aspartic Acid / Phenylalanine Dipeptide. ) Rumored to promote cancer and heavily debated, the fact remains that under the right conditions, you can get Methanol Poisoning from it. I myself try to avoid it as whenever I have drank an Aspartame sweetened soda, I develop a headache soon after and at no other times do I even get headaches usually. After reading all the scientific data available on it, I won't bore you with details but it's a bit scary and I will always continue not to use it. Sometimes these people only tell you what you want to hear. Monsanto bought the Nutra Sweet Company in 1984 , sold on the brand name but stayed in the business of producing Aspartame. What does that tell you ?


The chemical processes that white sugar is produced from are also scary enough that once educated on the process and chemicals used, you would probably forego it altogether like myself, replacing it with Raw Unrefined Cane Sugar. Can you say Bleach Solvents and Animal Derived Charcoal ?


The bottom line is believe you are consuming too many chemicals and act on it. Try to cut out as many things in your diet that are chemically treated or processed as you can and replace them with whole natural alternatives. You will be surprised at your better sense of health and well being for doing it.
