Apeel Extends Produce Life but What About Consumer's Lives?

6/1/2023

The new and improved
"all natural."

The latest change to
natural and organic that again leave
the consumer
wondering what to do.

So here we are again. Someone is messing with what we know to be perfection. Produce is now being coated, both organic and non-organic, with a product intended to increase shelf life. The concept might be right, but organic is organic because it is unadulterated, pure and without contamination. This product claims it cannot be washed off with any amount of scrubbing.

What’s going on here is that someone has decided that they know better than the public and yet again, we are having our food sources altered to meet the needs of what some call progress. Or maybe it is called greed?

The product is introduced as Apeel and is being used on fruits and vegetables. Apeel is made from a source called Edipeel. Here is what the manufacturer states:

“Our product, Edipeel, is a thin, edible postharvest coating made from plant-derived materials, designed to be consumed, that meets the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements for qualifications as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) in the United States.”

What most Americans now know is that trust in the FDA is foolishness. The FDA is the same agency that allows thousands of cancer causing agents, heavy metals and poisons into your daily life. These items are also GRAS, Generally Regarded as Safe, yet we know that a daily dose of toxic chemicals overloads the burden on the body and is causing endless conditions, cancers and disease.

“Generally Regarded as Safe” is not good enough anymore. BPA in plastics and its replacement BPS are also GRAS. Lead is your lipstick, hair dyes, dinner plates and food are also GRAS. Mercury in dentistry has been regarded as safe until public awareness forced the FDA to say, just last year, that it might not be a good idea to store mercury in your mouth if you are a child or pregnant woman.

It’s interesting to note that the FDA’s own documents claim that Apeel production uses toxic heavy metals like cadmium, mercury and lead to process ingredients. Solvents like ethyl acetate and heptane are also mentioned.

Is it good or bad? According to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation who funded the project, it is good. According to the FDA, it’s GRAS. GRAS to me is code for “let’s wait and see.” Unfortunately, you have to do your homework and decide for yourself.

Truth in Health News

1/15/2023

When someone is standing up for your health
and information rights,

You should know!

This is a reprint of a letter sent to me about the limited health information the public actually receives from the media.
The pending lawsuit hopes to make a difference. Meanwhile...You Should Know.

Reprint:

It’s time the legacy media is held accountable for censorship and collusion to suppress the truth!
Earlier this week, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Children’s Health Defense (CHD) filed a first-of-its-kind, landmark antitrust lawsuit in an effort to protect freedom of speech and stop the deliberate, concerted efforts made by the legacy media, colluding with Big Tech, Big Pharma and the government, to suppress critical information.
On Tuesday, RFK, Jr. appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight breaking news about this novel lawsuit filed on Jan. 10 against members of a partnership group of media conglomerates, the Trusted News Initiative (TNI). Members of the TNI include legacy media outlets: the BBC, The Washington Post, Reuters and Associated Press, along with social media and tech giants — Twitter, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Microsoft (LinkedIn) and Google (YouTube).
This lawsuit is seeking damages totaling millions of dollars based on the collusive censorship of online health and political news publishers who dared to question the narrative relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccine mandates and U.S. elections (such as the Hunter Biden laptop story).
Dr. Ben Tapper, Dr. Joseph Mercola, independent news publisher and founder of The Gateway Pundit Jim Hoft, independent journalists Ben Swann and Erin Elizabeth Finn, independent news outlets TrialSite News and Creative Destruction Media and health-freedom activists Ty and Charlene Bollinger join Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and CHD as plaintiffs.
These plaintiffs had combined followers of over 11 million — reaching billions of people with their content.
The complaint explains, “The TNI was spearheaded by legacy news organizations, like the Defendants, fearful of what they themselves described as an ‘existential threat’ to their economic survival: the explosion online of thousands of new, rival sources of news threatening to take audience share away from traditional news organizations and to undermine consumers’ trust in those organizations.”
The Devastating Impact of the Secret Media Cartel
These efforts to silence organizations like CHD, RFK, Jr. and the other plaintiffs in this lawsuit had disastrous effects. Suppression of truthful information related to safe and effective treatments, harms and risks of COVID shots and more deceived the public and destroyed their ability for informed consent.
Due to the silencing of critical health information worldwide, millions of people suffered injuries and deaths, lost their jobs and had their livelihoods, businesses, families and health destroyed.
Plaintiffs joined Wednesday’s Good Morning CHD, hosted by Aimee Villella McBride, to share the impacts of censorship on their businesses and news organizations, as well as on our democracy and the world at large.
Thursday’s episode of Good Morning CHD, hosted by Mary Holland, J.D., featured CHD Chairman Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and attorney Jed Rubenfeld. The show delved deeper into the case, exploring how this first-of-its-kind lawsuit violates Americans’ First Amendment rights.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said:
“My uncle, President Kennedy, and my father, the Attorney General, sought to prosecute antitrust laws that are still on the nation’s books with vigor. As private enforcers of those laws, we are confident that the Federal Court in Texas will vindicate our bedrock freedom to compete with legacy media in the marketplace of ideas.”
Children’s Health Defense is committed to defending children’s health and preserving our fundamental rights. We will exert every effort to prevent the legacy media from destroying our democracy and the health and well-being of future generations. This novel lawsuit seeks to force accountability on the legacy media—admitting their conduct to be unlawful—and bring justice to the plaintiffs.
In truth,
The Team at Children’s Health Defense

Donating to Causes that Represent Your Views

12/25/2021

Some of the greatest warriors for our health
are forgotten because they are not high profile machines that take donations to feed lost causes.

Finding the organizations that represent your interests takes a little time,
but the rewards are great.

We give donations and we hope that are making a difference, but we don't always investigate how that money is spent or follow the progress of the organization. If you really care about your health there are some organizations you might like to know better because they are attacking the systemic reasons for widespread illness.

These are a few that suit me and have my support for their on-going, established roles in making health and safety a priority by searching for the cause and NOT just the cure:

EWG or Environmental Working Group has stood strong to protect water, food, consumer products, agriculture, cosmetics and many other areas of needless toxicity. They have forced change in corporate manufacturing, with the government and the FDA. They produce the Skin Deep site that gives the health status of thousands of products. You can learn more about them at ewg.org.

Think Dirty is a website at thinkdirty.com and also an app that you can use to rate product safety before you buy. They have monitized their services by selling products of those manufacturers that they feel are safe and of value to the public.

Breast Cancer Prevention Partners doesn’t dress women up in pink or walk in the streets to support Big Pharma cancer research. They have their sights focused on why cancer is in our lives. They expose the truth about cancer causing agents in our foods, personal care products and more. Find them at bcpp.org.

Breast Cancer Action is found at bca.org. You will find them uninfluenced by the industry standards for breast cancer. Their goal is to give women the truth about treatment, cause and action.

Children’s Health Defense has grown out of Robert Kennedy, Jr.’s World Mercury Project. The same leadership has extended the focus to stop not only the casual use of mercury and dangerous metals, but to protect medical rights and expose truth in our health services. Reach them at childrenshealthdefense.org.

THE REAL ANTHONY FAUCI BOOK REVIEW

11/16/2021

I am still reading the introduction of
“The Real Anthony Fauci” and I’m already put at peace.

We are not experiencing the end of the world.
We are experiencing the outing of greed.
It’s horrific, but not hopeless.

In just a few pages of very small print, Bobby Kennedy, Jr. reveals the facts in plain English.
The part that gives me hope is that the makings of the current crisis began in 1980. That lets me believe that we can find ourselves again and that this is not a predestine end of life event.

He explains that the CDC owns 57 patents on vaccines and spent 4.9 billion of its 12 billion budget in 2019 buying and distributing vaccines. The NIH owns hundreds of vaccine patents and can profit from the sale of vaccines that it regulates. Meanwhile the FDA receives 45% of it’s budget from Big Pharma in what are called “user fees."

So how does that create pandemic censorship? During the lockdowns the middle class was severely damaged while the most wealthy were able to capitalize. Internet platforms became very powerful entities and began to protect their interests by censoring. “The biggest winners were the robber barons--the very companies that were cheerleading Fauci’s lockdown and censoring his critics,” says Kennedy.

The story begins with Fauci taking over the National Institute and Infectious Diseases, NIAID. This is where the influx of chronic conditions became fertilized to the point they are now common and in critical numbers. Kennedy says it was Fauci’s “subservience to Big Ag, Big Food and pharmaceutical companies left our children drowning in a toxic soup of pesticide residue, corn syrup and processed foods while serving as a pincushion for 69 mandated vaccines.”

There is more to read and more to know, but so far I’m overwhelmed with information. Even the worst of it is somehow comforting. You can see how this mess developed and how the US became the sickest country in the world.

Manipulated Facts are Simply Lies

10/11/2021

We are past the time when we
can close our eyes and just
believe we are hearing the
truth.

Doing your own health research is time consuming and frustrating, but it is now
more necessary than ever.

2021 and Your Health Decisions

10/7/2021

Making health decisions in this current climate is difficult enough without conflicting 'truths,'
unreliable statistics and efficacy reports supplied by manufacturer's of drugs you are expected to take without the benefit of conflicting opinions.

Feeling Alone?
You absolutely are not.

Follow the link on this cryptic message to hear from global resources. What you will find is that if you are resistant to the general medial propaganda, you represent about 50% of the global population. Stay alert and firm.

Reprinted as sent to me:

(Traduction en français disponible ici)
OCLA researcher Dr. Denis Rancourt and several fellow Canadian academics penned an open letter to support those who have decided not to accept the COVID-19 vaccine.
The group emphasizes the voluntary nature of this medical treatment as well as the need for informed consent and individual risk-benefit assessment. They reject the pressure exerted by public health officials, the news and social media, and fellow citizens.
Control over our bodily integrity may well be the ultimate frontier of the fight to protect civil liberties. Read the letter below or as a PDF here.
Open Letter to the Unvaccinated
You are not alone! As of 28 July 2021, 29% of Canadians have not received a COVID-19 vaccine, and an additional 14% have received one shot. In the US and in the European Union, less than half the population is fully vaccinated, and even in Israel, the “world’s lab” according to Pfizer, one third of people remain completely unvaccinated. Politicians and the media have taken a uniform view, scapegoating the unvaccinated for the troubles that have ensued after eighteen months of fearmongering and lockdowns. It’s time to set the record straight.
It is entirely reasonable and legitimate to say ‘no’ to insufficiently tested vaccines for which there is no reliable science. You have a right to assert guardianship of your body and to refuse medical treatments if you see fit. You are right to say ‘no’ to a violation of your dignity, your integrity and your bodily autonomy. It is your body, and you have the right to choose. You are right to fight for your children against their mass vaccination in school.
You are right to question whether free and informed consent is at all possible under present circumstances. Long-term effects are unknown. Transgenerational effects are unknown. Vaccine-induced deregulation of natural immunity is unknown. Potential harm is unknown as the adverse event reporting is delayed, incomplete and inconsistent between jurisdictions.
You are being targeted by mainstream media, government social engineering campaigns, unjust rules and policies, collaborating employers, and the social-media mob. You are being told that you are now the problem and that the world cannot get back to normal unless you get vaccinated. You are being viciously scapegoated by propaganda and pressured by others around you. Remember; there is nothing wrong with you.
You are inaccurately accused of being a factory for new SARS-CoV-2 variants, when in fact, according to leading scientists, your natural immune system generates immunity to multiple components of the virus. This will promote your protection against a vast range of viral variants and abrogates further spread to anyone else.
You are justified in demanding independent peer-reviewed studies, not funded by multinational pharmaceutical companies. All the peer-reviewed studies of short-term safety and short-term efficacy have been funded, organized, coordinated, and supported by these for-profit corporations; and none of the study data have been made public or available to researchers who don’t work for these companies.
You are right to question the preliminary vaccine trial results. The claimed high values of relative efficacy rely on small numbers of tenuously determined “infections.” The studies were also not blind, where people giving the injections admittedly knew or could deduce whether they were injecting the experimental vaccine or the placebo. This is not acceptable scientific methodology for vaccine trials.
You are correct in your calls for a diversity of scientific opinions. Like in nature, we need a polyculture of information and its interpretations. And we don’t have that right now. Choosing not to take the vaccine is holding space for reason, transparency and accountability to emerge. You are right to ask, ‘What comes next when we give away authority over our own bodies?’
Do not be intimidated. You are showing resilience, integrity and grit. You are coming together in your communities, making plans to help one another and standing for scientific accountability and free speech, which are required for society to thrive. We are among many who stand with you.

Update: The letter has been shared widely on the Internet, and translated into several languages, including Albanian, Czech, Estonian, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Thai.

Fear is Contagious

10/3/2021

No matter your side of the fence or another, fear is contagious.

Your neighbor made the best decision they could and so have you.

Shaming is not the answer and
winning should not be the goal.

Every road has a middle.

Is A Long Hauler Actually Experiencing Epstein Barr Flare Up?

10/2/2021

Much is being said about Covid Long Haulers. They are experiencing painful after effects that seem to cycle in and out of their daily lives. Many are debilitated by the symptoms, but to those who have lived with a multitude of chronic conditions with Epstein Barr Virus as the culprit, it is nothing new. Could there be a connection between what we are calling Long Haulers and Epstein Barr Virus?

The Epstein Barr virus is inside most human bodies. With it, you can often find Lyme's Disease as they are what you might call co-viruses or cousins. These viruses are deadly and can manifest in a number of ways which makes them hard to track without intense testing. What they have in common with all chronic conditions is that they tend to track the weak body, a sick body and a body that is experiencing trauma or stress. I'm at the point that I believe all chronic conditions should begin their Search for the Cause, Not Just the Cure with an investigation of these very common viruses.

Stop The Attacks on Health Choices

9/27/2021

We cannot continue the fighting about what health decisions have been made. We are losing friends and family over issues that are personal.

The medial and those with an agenda would have you believe that your neighbor is responsible for the pandemic. That is just not verifiable.

The medial would have you believe that if your neighbor cooperated with "science," life would return to normal. That is also not verifiable.

You were told that a vaccination would be all you needed to do to be safe, protect others, ditch the mask and live freely. That did not happen.

What we do know for sure is that there are doctors and medical experts who have opinions that they are willing to share, but they are being silenced. Why? Don't the people have a right to hear from all experts before making decisions that affect their lives?

The way to bring someone to your point of view is to allow them to gather as much information as possible. You cannot streamline "truth" and curtail all other opinions to get your way without causing concern. When experts are censored, it causes suspicion.

I am now suspicious and I'm losing my friends in this charade. I am not the cause of the pandemic, no matter what you have been told. I am not responsible for the predicable variants that you were mislead to believe would end if you vaccinated. I am not responsible for the fear campaign and the lack of information you have received, but I continue to hope that you will seek the truth.

What is the truth? Who really knows? It seems to be different for everyone, but that is what freedom is about. You get to choose and still be respected for your truth.

Freedom is not having the biggest guns or the army with the most money. Freedom comes in your ability to think for yourself and express yourself, right or wrong. Freedom used to breed tolerance. Have some.

Note: As of this writing, my person email was censored in a gmail account. I'm just a woman in recovery from heavy metals who is passing on information to others with chronic conditions. How in the world did I become so dangerous that my once private email is now being watched?
