By Mike Barrett A jury has awarded $250 million in punitive damages and nearly $40 million in compensatory damages to a former school groundskeeper who alleged in a lawsuit that glyphosate, the main ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup weedkiller, caused him cancer. [1] ?The plaintiff, DeWayne Johnson, was seeking $400 million in punitive damages and $39 million in compensatory damages from the biotech company, according to his attorney. Johnson’s lawsuit was the world’s first Roundup case to go to trial. The August 10 ruling could set a huge precedent for the thousands of other cases facing Monsanto (now Bayer) that have

By AdminM USDA-Backed “Factory Farm” Takeover of Organic Milk Production Crushing Family-Scale Farmers and Forcing Them Out of Business Newly Released Report, and Associated Organic Dairy Brand Scorecard, Enables Defrauded Consumers and Wholesale Buyers to “Vote with Their Pocketbooks” by The Cornucopia Institute When commercialized in the 1980s, the organic dairy movement was viewed by many farmers as opting out of a rapacious agricultural marketing system that had already driven the majority of dairy farm families off the land over the preceding two decades. Now, a quarter century later, history is repeating itself with giant “factory farms” flooding the organic

By Mike Barrett The 2 largest independent seed sellers in the United States, Beck’s Hybrids and Stine Seed, are urging the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to ban farmers from spraying dicamba herbicide during upcoming summers. Spraying would be limited to the springtime, before crops are planted, preventing farmers from using the weedkiller on Monsanto-made soybeans genetically engineered to withstand dicamba. In the summer of 2017, farmers planted mind-boggling amounts of dicamba-resistant soybeans. This resulted in dicamba drifting onto nearby farms where the genetically modified seeds aren’t grown, damaging an estimated 3.6 million acres of traditionally-grown soybeans – 4% of

By Julie Fidler A chemical touted as a safer replacement for bee-killing neonicotinoid pesticides (neonics) has similar harmful effects, researchers in the U.K. have discovered. Neonicotinoids are a class of insecticides intended to protect crops from pests by blocking receptors in the insects’ brains, paralyzing and killing them. Even small doses of neonics can cause bees to struggle with navigation, hunting for food, reproduction, and their ability to form new colonies. As a result of neonics’ effects on pollinators, the European Union (EU) banned the outdoor use of 5 neonicotinoid products in April 2018. Canada began phasing them out on

By Seth Pollard Consumer Reports has some bad news for parents who only feed their babies organic food. In terms of arsenic, cadmium, and lead levels, organic baby foods are no better than traditional products when it comes to heavy metal contamination. ?The authors of the report note that babies are ingesting fewer pesticides with organic food consumption. That, along with the gentler effects organic food has on the environment, still shows that organic is better than conventional. However, “organic” does not mean free of heavy metals. Consumer Reports tested 50 baby and toddler products from retailers all over the

By Hesh Goldstein Since going on the radio in 1981 and taking an active role in promoting good health, I have become appalled by the alarmingly decrepit state of health of the American people. There is a huge difference that exists between the health of the people and the option for lack of disease and vibrancy. Today, for the majority, wealth means how much you have. For me, wealth means good health. The American medical profession has become nothing more than a “hooker” for the Big Pharma “pimp” by abandoning the Hippocratic Oath they pledged to serve skillfully and with

You too can measure yourself on the “Pedestrian Aggressiveness Syndrome Scale,” a tool developed by University of Hawaii psychologist Leon James.

By Susan Patterson You might notice that some of your garden plants are a little sickly looking and not performing as they should. This could be the first sign of nitrogen deficiency, something that all savvy gardeners should be aware of. All plants need nitrogen for healthy growth and to reproduce. Plants also use nitrogen for photosynthesis. Once you get a handle on the nitrogen needs of our plants it makes it easier to supplement as necessary for healthy growth. Native plants don’t often struggle with nitrogen deficiency like vegetable garden plants can. Spotting Nitrogen Deficiency Nitrogen deficiency is fairly

By Julie Fidler Europe’s highest court ruled July 25 that crops edited with CRISPR technology should face the same tough scrutiny as conventional genetically modified (GM) organisms. [1] The decision, handed down by the Court of Justice of the European Union (ECJ), is a blow to many scientists and other proponents of gene-editing who had hoped that gene-editing technologies such as CRISPR-Cas9 would be exempted from existing European law limiting the planting and sale of GM crops. Under the ECJ ruling, crops edited with CRISPR and similar technologies are subject to a 2001 directive that was intended for older breeding

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Bernadette Pajer of Informed Choice Washington gave an impassioned speech to the WA Board of Health regarding a terrifying vaccine industry initiative: a large and highly organized network involving public health groups and big pharma wish to force vaccines on every adult and an immunization schedule on every child. The vaccine industry is working hard (behind closed doors) to vaccinate as many people as possible. Sadly, the right to refuse vaccinations is viewed as an ‘obstacle’ by the pharmaceutical industry and conventional medicine. But, Bernadette Pajer reveals the true …read more Source: Natural Health

You may have heard about it or noticed this if you’ve glanced at bodybuilder magazines or looked over the shelves of certain supplement stores that tend to cater more to athletes and bodybuilders. But not all of us are bodybuilders or high-performance athletes that rely on short intense bursts of energy output. Those among us who do casual resistance training could benefit from creatine supplementation, which has proven itself in …read more Source: Health Impact News

By Lori Alton, staff writer (Naturalhealth365) Over the past 20 years, the capabilities of information and communication technologies have exploded. But, in addition to bringing unprecedented access to information and data, these systems have also brought about massive increases in our exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (or RF-EMF). Now, a new study examining the effects of cell phone RF-EMF radiation on adolescent neurocognitive processes suggests that this exposure can pose a risk to the most essential data retrieval system of all – the human memory. In a groundbreaking new Swiss study published …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) In 2018, the American Cancer Society estimates that various forms of cancer will claim 609,640 cancer deaths in the United States (alone) – that’s roughly 1,630 per day. The poor success rate of conventional chemotherapy and radiation treatments – along with their debilitating and dangerous side effects – have spurred researchers to focus on natural substances, like Boswellia, in hopes of safer, more effective, therapies. In fact, even though the pharmaceutical industry will never admit it, scientific studies have shown that this ancient herbal remedy (Boswellia) …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Water fluoridation in public drinking water has been a controversial subject for decades. Now, finally, a high court in New Zealand has ruled that fluoride in water is like adding unwanted medication to the public water supply.

In fact, many studies have shown that fluoride affects IQ and other key bodily functions. Truth REVEALED: Putting fluoride in …read more Source: Natural Health 365
