Knowledge is Power.

I’ve committed my life to gaining knowledge in order to help people. The tricky part is knowing enough to recognize what is TRUE information and what isn’t.

I believe knowledge is power … and it’s vital you know the knowledge you have is true!

Let me explain – You might hear something from a friend or on the news you believe is true, but later find out, it wasn’t.

Or how about when the food industry asks us if we, “Got Milk?” or tells us to “Eat More Chicken!” – millions follow – and some follow right to the grave!

What’s Lurking in Your Water?
Last night we had an incredibly informative interview with Gary Merritt, CEO of Genesis Water Filtration Systems, discussing the hows and whys of protecting yourself (and your  family) from all the contaminants that are present in our water supply today.

Involved in manufacturing water filtration systems for nearly 20 years, Gary is a wealth of knowledge about the different types of filtration medias and systems, and more importantly how to avoid overpaying for pure, clean water.

If you do not have a water filtration system for drinking, cooking and bathing, you really need to stop and ask yourself why. If you are buying bottled water today, you’ll wonder why you are wasting money, when you can make your own for a few pennies (or less) a gallon.

We will publish an in-depth report in the near future, but for now, pour yourself a big glass of water and listen to the interview.

Simply Amazing!

Oftentimes it seems like we are the lone heretic ranting and raving about the toxic dangers entering in our food and water. Last spring, we published an article about the hidden dangers that occur when Fluoride is added to our drinking water. If you missed the article, click here to read it.

Well, on Friday, Jan 7th, federal health officials at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) finally admitted that American’s are getting too much fluoride, and for the first time in nearly 50 years, reduced the recommended level from 1.2 parts per million to 0.7. That’s a reduction of nearly 50%!

While we applaud the Fed’s decision to lower the recommended levels, the only acceptable level of fluoride in our drinking water is no fluoride at all!

Read today’s article, watch the highly informative video and then take the next step to protect your family with the purest water on the planet right in your kitchen.

U.S. says too much fluoride in water

ATLANTA (AP) — Fluoride in drinking water, credited with dramatically cutting cavities and tooth decay, may now be too much of a good thing. Getting too much of it causes spots on some kids’ teeth.

A reported increase in the spotting problem is one reason the federal government will announce Friday it plans to lower the recommended levels for fluoride in water supplies, the first such change in nearly 50 years.

About 2 out of 5 adolescents have tooth streaking or spottiness because of too much fluoride, a surprising government study found recently. In some extreme cases, teeth can even be pitted by the mineral, though many cases are so mild only dentists notice it.

Health officials note that most communities have fluoride in their water supplies, and toothpaste has it too. Some kids are even given fluoride supplements.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is announcing a proposal to change the recommended fluoride level to 0.7 milligrams per liter of water. And the Environmental Protection Agency will review whether the maximum cutoff of 4 milligrams per liter is too high. The standard since 1962 has been a range of 0.7 to 1.2 milligrams per liter.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that the splotchy tooth condition, fluorosis, is unexpectedly common in kids ages 12 through 15. And it appears to have grown much more common since the 1980s.

Are you being poisoned by Fluoride in your water?

For years there have been snippets of information coming out about the dangers of Fluoride in our water supply. The authorities dismiss these claims every time and insist “everything is perfectly safe.”

The latest information however refutes all this and is of vital importance to every one – particularly every mother of a growing child, because it has now been proven by years and years of research that Fluoride is highly dangerous and the missing link in birth defects and mental retardation in young children, as well as the epidemic of Alzheimer’s.

Professor A.K. Susheela, PhD., who has researched fluoride for more than 20 years and is one of the world’s leading researchers and experts on Fluoride in our water supply, says long-term studies show fluoride is a serious threat to public health.

With more than 80 scientific studies published in Western and Indian Journals to her credit, Dr. Susheela says that fluoride not only has been linked to increased rates of stillbirth and miscarriages among populations exposed to fluoride in water, but fluoride also poses a serious risk of birth abnormalities including mental retardation.

Dr. Susheela says the studies have shown that fluoride destroys:

• muscle structure and muscle function
• muscle energy
• bone and teeth
• red blood cells and blood vessels
• the lining of the stomach and intestine

This is world breaking news, literally hot off the news wires. When you study all this, it reads like a Dan Brown “DaVinci Code” novel. Except this story is true, not fiction.

For ages now, scientists have been baffled by the invisible power of Vitamin D-3 on the immune system. Particularly on diseases like Multiple Sclerosis, Lou Gehrig’s Disease, Parkinson’s and worst of all, Cancer.

How did the presence of Vitamin D-3 have such profound power in defeating these diseases without drug intervention?

Read every word of this HEALTH ALERT. Here is the answer and it is just incredible evidence once again of the power of Vitamin D-3 on any disease.

Vitamin D is vital in activating human defences and low levels suffered by around half the world’s population, may mean their immune systems’ killer T cells are poor at fighting infection, scientists said on Sunday March 7th, 2010.

Make a note of this momentous date in natural medicine history.

Scientists find why Vitamin D, the “Sunshine Vitamin“, is Crucial

The findings by Danish researchers could help the fight against infectious diseases and global epidemics, they said, and could be particularly useful in the search for new vaccines.

The researchers found that immune systems’ killer cells, known as “T cells”, rely on Vitamin D to become active and remain dormant and unaware of the possibility of threat from an infection or pathogen if vitamin D is lacking in the blood.
