The Disease Mongering Engine, which I invented a couple of years ago and posted on Natural News, was initially created as a joke to demonstrate the ridiculousness of the fictitious diseases that are constantly created by the psychiatric industry. This hilarious online disease generator allows you to instantly create your own fictitious diseases and disorders such as:
• Repetitive Dysmorphic Nose Picking Disorder With Itching (RDNPDWI)
• Oppositional Disorganized Speaking Disorder With Indigestion (ODSDWI)
• Chronic Bipolar Anticipation Dysfunction With Smelly Feet (CBADWSF)
… and so on.
Here’s the bizarre part: All of a sudden, the new psychiatric diagnostic manual (DSM-V) appears to have adopted as medical fact many of the disorders that were created by the Disease Mongering Engine!
This new manual, for example, now says that spending a lot of time thinking about sex is a disorder. (That immediately paints every teenage boy as “diseased.”)
Another new disease is “Oppositional Defiant Disorder” (ODD), which includes anyone who disagrees with authority. All those who are skeptical about the safety of vaccines, for example, are about to be diagnosed with ODD.
Now, people who are antisocial aren’t merely antisocial. They’re suffering from “Antisocial Personality Disorder” and require pharmacological treatment. So the prick neighbor isn’t merely a prick anymore; he’s a “sufferer” of a “disorder” who needs “treatment.”
Children are no longer unhappy or throwing a temper tantrum, they are suffering from “Temper Dysregulation Disorder with Dysphoria.” (I’m not making this up…)
Are you cracking up yet? If George Carlin were still alive today, he’d go berserk over this… Carlin, of course, would have been diagnosed with countless psychiatric disorders just for being different in his own genius way.
Federal Law Protects Jackasses The examples of ridiculous disorders seems endless. But here’s the real kicker in all this: Thanks to federal laws that were designed to protect people who are physically disabled, people who now “suffer” from these fictitious disorders are now protected under federal law. So the antisocial prick jackass working at your office can’t be fired now because he’s actually suffering from a diagnosed “mental disorder” and he’s being “treated” by psychiatrists.
As columnist George Will described it in a Washington Post article, “If every character blemish or emotional turbulence is a “disorder” akin to a physical disability, legal accommodations are mandatory. Under federal law, “disabilities” include any “mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities”; “mental impairments” include “emotional or mental illness.” So there might be a legal entitlement to be a jerk.”
There might even be legal protections for people who are sexual predators. So the creepy pervert at the office who feels you up in the snack room can’t be fired either — he’s only suffering from “Hypersexual Disorder”, a new disorder now defined as a “mental illness” by the psychiatric manual which describes it, in part, as: “A great deal of time is consumed by sexual fantasies and urges and by planning for and engaging in sexual behavior.” (Well gee, there goes half the population…)
Let’s Make All the Children “Normal”
There’s another danger in all this psych-tagging of human behavior: What about all the creative, genius children who operate far beyond the intellectual norms of regular, average kids? As George Will explains:
“Childhood eccentricities, sometimes inextricable from creativity, might be labeled “disorders” to be “cured.” If 7-year-old Mozart tried composing his concertos today, he might be diagnosed with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and medicated into barren normality.”
Based on the new DSM-V, children who don’t fit in as dumbed-down, average kids will be flagged as diseased and could be cognitively castrated by whatever psychiatric drugs are necessary to bring them down to the level of all the other kids. Why have exceptional children when they can fit in better as “average!”
Aspartame producer Ajinomoto is launching a new initiative that will rebrand the sweetener as “AminoSweet”.
Aspartame is used in many foods and beverages marketed as low calorie or sugar-free. However, its reputation has been clouded somewhat by studies that have investigated reports of ill effects.
Aspartame is the most controversial food additive in history, and its approval for use in food was the most contested in FDA history. In the end, the artificial sweetener was approved, not on scientific grounds, but rather because of strong political and financial pressure. After all, aspartame was previously listed by the Pentagon as a biochemical warfare agent!
It’s hard to believe such a chemical would be allowed into the food supply, but it was, and it has been wreaking silent havoc with people’s health for the past 30 years.
The truth is, it should never have been released onto the market, and allowing it to remain in the food chain is seriously hurting people – no matter how many times you rebrand it under fancy new names.
The Deceptive Marketing of Aspartame Sold commercially under names like NutraSweet, Canderel, and now AminoSweet, aspartame can be found in more than 6,000 foods, including soft drinks, chewing gum, table-top sweeteners, diet and diabetic foods, breakfast cereals, jams, sweets, vitamins, prescription and over-the-counter drugs.
Aspartame producer Ajinomoto chose to rebrand it under the name AminoSweet, to “remind the industry that aspartame tastes just like sugar, and that it’s made from amino acids – the building blocks of protein that are abundant in our diet.”
This is deception at its finest: Begin with a shred of truth, and then spin it to fit your own agenda.
In this case, the agenda is to make you believe that aspartame is somehow a harmless, natural sweetener made with two amino acids that are essential for health and present in your diet already.
They want you to believe aspartame delivers all the benefits of sugar and none of its drawbacks. But nothing could be further from the truth.
How Aspartame Wreaks Havoc on Your Health Did you know there have been more reports to the FDA for aspartame reactions than for all other food additives combined?
In fact, there are over 10,000 official complaints, but by the FDA’s own admission, less than 1 percent of those who experience a reaction to a product ever report it. So in all likelihood, the toxic effects of aspartame may have affected roughly a million people already.
While a variety of symptoms have been reported, almost two-thirds of them fall into the neurological and behavioral category consisting mostly of headaches, mood alterations, and hallucinations. The remaining third is mostly gastrointestinal symptoms.
This video will familiarize you with some of the terrifying side-effects and health problems you could encounter if you consume products containing this chemical.
Unfortunately, aspartame toxicity is not well-known by doctors, despite its frequency. Diagnosis is also hampered by the fact that it mimics several other common health conditions, such as:
Multiple sclerosis
Alzheimer’s disease
Arthritis
Chronic fatigue syndrome
Panic disorder
Lupus
Birth defects
Lyme disease
Parkinson’s disease
Fibromyalgia
Multiple chemical sensitivity
Attention deficit disorder
Depression and other psychological disorders
Diabetes and diabetic complications
Lymphoma
Hypothyroidism
How Diet Foods and Drinks CAUSE Weight Problems In recent years, food manufacturers have increasingly focused on developing low-calorie foods and drinks to help you maintain a healthy weight and avoid obesity. Unfortunately, the science behind these products is so flawed, most of these products can actually lead to increased weight gain!
For example, researchers have discovered that drinking diet soda increases your risk of metabolic syndrome, and may double your risk of obesity – the complete opposite of the stated intention behind these “zero calorie” drinks.
The sad truth is that diet foods and drinks ruin your body’s ability to count calories, and in fact stimulate your appetite, thus boosting your inclination to overindulge.
Unfortunately, most public health agencies and nutritionists in the United States recommend these toxic artificial sweeteners as an acceptable alternative to sugar, which is at best confusing and at worst harming the health of those who take their misguided advice.
Even More Toxic Dangers of Aspartame Truly, there is enough evidence showing the dangers of consuming artificial sweeteners to fill an entire book — which is exactly why I wrote Sweet Deception. If you or your loved ones drink diet beverages or eat diet foods, this book will explain how you’ve been deceived about the truth behind artificial sweeteners like aspartame and sucralose — for greed, for profits, and at the expense of your health.
As mentioned earlier, almost two-thirds of all documented side effects of aspartame consumption are neurological.
One of the reasons for this side effect, researchers have discovered, is because the phenylalanine in aspartame dissociates from the ester bond. While these amino acids are indeed completely natural and safe, they were never designed to be ingested as isolated amino acids in massive quantities, which in and of itself will cause complications.
Additionally this will also increase dopamine levels in your brain. This can lead to symptoms of depression because it distorts your serotonin/dopamine balance. It can also lead to migraine headaches and brain tumors through a similar mechanism.
The aspartic acid in aspartame is a well-documented excitotoxin. Excitotoxins are usually amino acids, such as glutamate and aspartate. These special amino acids cause particular brain cells to become excessively excited, to the point that they die.
Excitotoxins can also cause a loss of brain synapses and connecting fibers. A review conducted in 2008 by scientists from the University of Pretoria and the University of Limpopo found that consuming a lot of aspartame may inhibit the ability of enzymes in your brain to function normally, and may lead to neurodegeneration.
According to the researchers, consuming a lot of aspartame can disturb:
• The metabolism of amino acids
• Protein structure and metabolism
• The integrity of nucleic acids
• Neuronal function
• Endocrine balances
Furthermore, the ester bond in aspartame breaks down to formaldehyde and methanol, which are also toxic in their own right. So it is not surprising that this popular artificial sweetener has also been found to cause cancer.
One truly compelling case study that shows this all too well was done by a private citizen named Victoria Inness-Brown. She decided to perform her own aspartame experiment on 108 rats over a period of 2 years and 8 months.
Daily, she fed some of the rats the equivalent (for their body weight) of two-thirds the aspartame contained in 8-oz of diet soda. Thirty-seven percent of the females fed aspartame developed tumors, some of massive size.
How to Ditch Artificial Sweeteners, and Satiate Your Sweet Tooth If you suffer from sweet cravings, it’s easy to convince yourself you’re doing the right thing by opting for a zero-calorie sweetener like aspartame. Please understand that you will do more harm than good to your body this way.
First, it’s important to realize that your body craves sweets when you’re not giving it the proper fuel it needs.
Finding out your nutritional type will tell you exactly which foods you need to eat to feel full and satisfied. It may sound hard to believe right now, but once you start eating right for your nutritional type, your sweet cravings will significantly lessen and may even disappear.
And, if diet soda is the culprit for you, be sure to check out Turbo Tapping, which is an extremely effective and simple tool to get rid of your soda addiction in a short period of time.
Non-Acceptable Alternative Sweeteners I have written a few articles on fructose earlier this year, and I will be writing many more, so please be aware that I am absolutely convinced that fructose ingestion is at the core of our obesity epidemic.
And I’m not only talking about high fructose corn syrup, which is virtually identical to table sugar. The only major difference between the two is HFCS is much cheaper so it has contributed to massive increase in fructose ingestion, far beyond safe or healthy.
Please understand you need to keep your fructose levels BELOW 25 grams per day. The best way to do that is to avoid these “natural” sweeteners as they are loaded with a much higher percentage of fructose than HFCS.
• Fruit Juice
• Agave
• Honey
Please note that avoiding these beyond 25 grams per day is crucial, even if the source is fresh, raw, and organic. It just doesn’t matter, fructose is fructose is fructose.
Acceptable Alternative Sweeteners For those times when you just want a taste of something sweet, your healthiest alternative is Stevia. It’s a natural plant and, unlike aspartame and other artificial sweeteners that have been cited for dangerous toxicities, it is a safe, natural alternative that’s ideal if you’re watching your weight, or if you’re maintaining your health by avoiding sugar.
It is hundreds of times sweeter than sugar and truly has virtually no calories. I must tell you that I am biased; I prefer Stevia as my sweetener of choice, and I frequently use it. However, like most choices, especially sweeteners, I recommend using Stevia in moderation, just like sugar. In excess it is still far less likely to cause metabolic problems than sugar or any of the artificial sweeteners.
I want to emphasize, that if you have insulin issues, I suggest that you avoid sweeteners altogether, including Stevia, as they all can decrease your sensitivity to insulin. Lo han is another sweetener like Stevia. It’s an African sweet herb that can also be used, but it’s a bit more expensive and harder to find.
So if you struggle with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes or extra weight, then you have insulin sensitivity issues and would benefit from avoiding ALL sweeteners. But for everyone else, if you are going to sweeten your foods and beverages anyway, I strongly encourage you to consider using regular Stevia or Lo han, and toss out all artificial sweeteners and any products that contain them.
After a long string of abusive relationships I finally discovered who I was. I spent my whole life looking for somebody to love me when all I had to do was learn how to love myself. I escaped my first abusive relationship when I moved to America from Australia back in 1999. For a very long time I was a perfectly packaged media product - a robotic, mind-controlled Hollywood slave. If you’re not one of them, you aren’t anybody - well thats what they make you believe anyway. My life was sex, lies and Hollywood and it made me sick, literally. I gained over 100lbs over the course of a few years and nearly ended up dying back in 2007. After waking up and realizing that there is a conspiracy going on in the world my whole life changed. What you see is not what not you get.
I’m just a crazy cat lady on a raw food diet. I also have no life. Want to lose weight fast? Go raw and lose a ton of weight. I screwed up on the HCG diet so its time to go back to eating raw food to detox my body from all the junk that Ive been stuffing my face with. I was eating only raw back when I lived in Alaska (go figure) and then fell off track after moving back to Australia. Not only am I detoxing my body from all the burgers and other nasty, processed food Ive been eating but I’m also finding that I’m losing a great deal of weight in the process. I dont feel grossed out after I eat, I have a ton of energy and Ive managed to lose exactly 11.8lbs in 9 days. All I gotta do now is get my sister to go raw with me!
This video presents the false claims Kevin Trudeau made about the HCG diet in his book, The Weight Loss Cure They Dont Want You To Know About. I lost 75lbs on the HCG diet and gained back 64lbs in approximately 2 months with my final weight being 220lbs on January 29th, 2010. Here are just some of the false claims Kevin Trudeau made regarding the HCG diet:
1. The weight loss cure protocol does in fact cure and correct these problems. (i.e. corrects low metabolism, intense and constant hunger, emotional eating and food cravings)
2. When you finish the protocol your metabolism is reset to the normal level.
3. Your physical hunger is reset to the normal level.
4. The emotional eating issues and food cravings are gone forever. This means when you finish this protocol you will be able to be a normal person in relation to your eating and weight.
5. Your hunger will be completely normalized.
6. You will be able to eat any food you want.
This video was filmed on February 1, 2010 and my current weight is 212.7lbs. My goal weight is 120lbs.
Ingredients:
3 cups pecans or walnuts
1 1/2 cups raisins
4 medium bananas
Juice and zest from 1 1/2 small to medium lemons
Poppy seeds and/or fruit for garnish
1. Process nuts in processor, add raisins and process until mixture clumps together. Press into a 9 x 9 pie pan.
2. Grate the zest on top of the crust.
3. Juice lemons into a bowl. Slice bananas and add to the lemon juice. Stir gently to coat the bananas with the juice and pour into the pie crust.
4. Decorate with the poppy seeds, fruit, mint leaves, etc.
Note: I also made this pie with orange juice/zest and instead of using 3 cups of walnuts. I substituted one of the cups with coconut. It was soooo good with a very tropical taste to it. I even had it for breakfast. If you like more of a zesty flavor then definitely try the lemon.
This is one of my all time favorite dishes which I just had for dinner tonight! 100% natural, chemical, pesticide, artificial color and flavoring FREE! THIS is the way we should be eating, pre-flood Garden of Eden style! Here’s the recipe …..
Ingredients:
2 cups fresh tomato
2 cups red bell pepper
1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes (optional)
2 or 3 garlic cloves
3 tablespoons fresh basil
Himalayan crystal salt (optional)
Zucchini (use a spirooli vegetable slicer to cut the zucchini into spiral-shaped pasta)
1. Prepare the sun-dried tomatoes by soaking them for about two hours. You can speed up the soaking process by soaking them for about 30 minutes in warm to hot water. Save the soak water and you can use a little in the recipe for extra flavor.
2. Blend the tomatoes and red bell peppers with the garlic until it reaches the consistency of tomato sauce. I blend it about one minute and leave it slightly chunky. You could add a pinch of salt if you wish.
The fresh tomatoes sometimes have enough juice for the recipe. If they are dry you may pour in a little soak water until it reaches the correct consistency.
Add in the basil at the end and briefly blend. If you blend the herbs too much they may become bitter.
3. Pour sauce over vegetable noodles and serve!
Optional Ingredients:
Every time I make this recipe, I change the flavor by adding in one or two of the following ingredients:
- A handful of fresh or dried herbs, such as chives, thyme, parsley, sage, rosemary, or the dried Italian Seasoning.
- Dash of cayenne pepper powder to add a little heat.
This is a video proving that Kevin Trudeau LIED about the HCG diet. In his book and infomercials he blatantly lied and stated that you can eat whatever you want after you lose weight with HCG and NOT put it back on. I’ve gained a total of 57lbs in approximately 2 months since finishing HCG - that’s nearly all of the weight it took me 2 years to lose! HCG is an excellent way to lose weight fast BUT I’m telling you now, you CANNOT eat whatever you want afterwards and still maintain your weight loss!
This video was filmed on January 25, 2010 and my current weight is 213lbs. My goal weight is 120lbs. The plan is to get there in 2010 and this time, keep it off!
The great swine flu hoax of 2009 is now falling apart at the seams as one country after another unloads hundreds of millions of doses of unused swine flu vaccines. No informed person wants the injection anymore, and the entire fear-based campaign to promote the vaccines has now been exposed as outright quackery and propaganda.
Even doctors are now calling the pandemic a complete hoax. As reported on FoxNews, Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg, a leading health authority in Europe, says that drug companies “organized a ‘campaign of panic’ to put pressure on the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare a pandemic. He believes it is ‘one of the greatest medicine scandals of the century,’ and he has called for an inquiry.” (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933…)
H1N1 swine flu was never dangerous, and it never should have been escalated to a level-six pandemic in the first place. It was all a big marketing scam whose purpose was to simply sell vaccines. (And the CDC and WHO were in on it…)
And it worked! Big Pharma made out with billions of dollars in profits for a useless vaccine that’s now being dumped by the truck load. These vaccines were, of course, paid for with taxpayer dollars, making the Great Swine Flu Hoax of 2009 nothing more than an elaborate financial scam whose goal was to transfer wealth from the People to the shareholders of Big Pharma.
That’s $1.4 billion worth of taxpayer dollars, by the way. Dollars that could have been spent on nutrition or real health education. $1.4 billion worth of free vitamin D supplements would have done far more to protect public health than vaccines could ever hope to accomplish.
A Bailout For Big Pharma
Wall Street hucksters have nothing on Big Pharma, the CDC and the WHO, all of which conspired to mislead the public and generate irrational fear in order to make money selling people vaccine shots they never needed in the first place.
The drug companies raked in billions of dollars in revenues while providing a product that offered absolutely no net reduction in mortality. In fact, as the long-term side effects of the vaccines remain unknown, it could turn out that the vaccines actually result in a net increase in mortality.
Meanwhile, countless people were harmed by the swine flu vaccine frenzy (it’s “countless” because nobody’s counting). In addition to those who were nearly paralyzed after receiving the vaccine shots, grade school students in Massachusetts who lined up to receive swine flu vaccine shots were instead injected with insulin. (Insulin injections can put you into a coma.) (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dy…)
The school sent a letter home to students blaming the mishap on the school nurse. But if they weren’t injecting these kids with a useless vaccine for a non-pandemic, none of this would have happened in the first place.
