¡Felices vacaciones!

Sabemos que estamos en tiempos de mucha actividad, y con el envío de 1-2- días de Amazon, las interminables horas de entretenimiento en línea al alcance de la mano y las redes sociales adictivas, todos nos estamos acostumbrando a esperar una gratificación inmediata. Hoy les escribo para pedirles que consideren lo que puede hacer tomarse un momento para hacer una pausa ...

Cada Navidad, cuando era niño, mi hermano mayor Tao, mi hermana menor Chi, mi madre y mi padre se reunían alrededor de nuestro árbol de Navidad (generalmente cortado de nuestra tierra de Connecticut y con apariencia de Charlie Brownish) y se sentaban asombrados, mirando las pilas de regalos. . Mis padres no usaban lazos elegantes o incluso cajas a veces, y a menudo podíamos descubrir el regalo con solo mirar la forma. Pero aún así ... mi padre tomaba un regalo, leía el "Para" y "De" en voz alta y la pequeña pista que nos acostumbramos a escuchar; “Algo acogedor para ti” (¿tal vez calcetines de lana?) O “Bee-Happy and Relaxed” (¿una vela de cera de miel?), Y entrégaselo al donante. El donante luego entregaría el obsequio al receptor personalmente.

¿Ha visto un mayor número de informes sobre el importante papel de la vitamina D para evitar los síntomas graves de COVID?

¿Se pregunta por qué algunas personas mueren de COVID y otras casi no presentan síntomas o presentan síntomas muy leves?

Nosotros también queríamos saber ...

Ya sabemos que el glifosato, uno de nuestros principales enfoques durante los últimos 8 años, es un quelante y puede agarrar y hacer que no estén disponibles los nutrientes vitales de cualquier ser vivo que toque. Sospechamos que el glifosato, fabricado por Bayer, es un factor importante que explica por qué los seres humanos tenemos una gran deficiencia de vitamina D en primer lugar. Así que le preguntamos a un experto en glifosato sobre el papel de este herbicida más utilizado en el mundo. Se ha encontrado glifosato en miles de muestras de alimentos, leche materna, orina, lluvia y agua potable. ¿Podría el glifosato jugar un papel en la deficiencia de vitamina D y, por lo tanto, contribuir a la muerte en todo el mundo por COVID?

La FDA lo ha vuelto a hacer. ¡Han aprobado otro animal modificado genéticamente sin las precauciones de seguridad adecuadas!

As reported on Buceo de comida por la autora Megan Pionski

• The Food and Drug Administration cerdos modificados genéticamente aprobados for use in food and medicine. GalSafe pigs, made by regenerative medicine company Revivir, have been modified to remove alpha-gal sugar from the surface of the animals' cells.

• Algunas personas son alérgicas a los azúcares alfa-gal, que se encuentran naturalmente en las células de la mayoría de los mamíferos. La causa de esta alergia, conocida como síndrome alfa-gal, es se cree que son picaduras de garrapatas estrella solitaria. Sin embargo, los cerdos GalSafe solo se revisaron para determinar la seguridad de alérgenos en usos farmacéuticos. No se revisaron por seguridad cuando los consumía alguien con alergia al alfa-gal, aunque el departamento afirma que la carne es segura para consumir en general.

• Genetically modified — or bioengineered — food products are controversial among some consumers. Per a 2016 law, all food products that contain detectable bioengineered DNA will be required to have a label denoting that. While some food companies have started disclosing bioengineered ingredients, all products must be labeled as such by 2022. There is currently one other GMO animal protein product approved for human consumption: Salmón AquAdvantage.

diciembre 10, 2020, el Comité de identificación de sustancias tóxicas para el desarrollo y la reproducción (DARTIC) se reunió para determinar cuáles de las 22 sustancias químicas recomendarían a la Oficina de Evaluación de Riesgos para la Salud (OEHHA) de la EPA de CA que se consideraran, en un nivel alto, medio o bajo, para ser incluido en la lista de la Prop 65 como disruptor endocrino. Como lo solicitamos hace dos añosFinalmente, el glifosato y las sales se consideraron, así que, por supuesto, teníamos que presentarlos.

El glifosato ya ha sido incluido en la lista de la Proposición 65 como carcinógeno, sin embargo, Monsanto demandó a la CA EPA y evitó que los productos que contienen glifosato tengan una etiqueta de advertencia, como Roundup y alimentos contaminados. Continúan demandando para que se elimine el glifosato de la lista de la Proposición 65, alegando que debido a que la EPA federal no lo consideró carcinógeno (solo revisaron estudios financiados por la industria), se incluyó incorrectamente. Por lo tanto, colocar el glifosato en la lista de la Proposición 65 como un disruptor endocrino lo mantendría al frente de la atención del público, requeriría que tuviera una etiqueta de advertencia y posiblemente conduciría a un uso rechazado o prohibido en países de todo el mundo.

Con el apoyo de científicos y expertos y su increíble trabajo, armamos una presentación. Puede usar la siguiente presentación para el personal de su ciudad, el director de la escuela o conocidos que puedan estar usando herbicidas de glifosato como Roundup o Ranger Pro. El Consejo de Defensa de los Recursos Naturales comentó a favor de incluir el glifosato como un disruptor endocrino en la lista de la Proposición 65. Mom Across America fue el único representante del lado de los consumidores que hizo una presentación a favor de que se le diera un premio al glifosato. ALTO prioridad para su consideración para ser incluido en la lista de la Proposición 65 como un disruptor endocrino.

Yesterday it was reported on social media that Brandy Vaughn, founder of Learn The Risk, a vaccine awareness non-profit organization, was found unresponsive by her 9-year-old son. Her community was shocked. She was a 47-year-old single mom, apparently healthy, and had been very clear that she no reason to commit suicide.

As a former executive of Merck who spoke out against vaccines, she was harassed and threatened. She knew she was at risk. A year ago, she made a video recording of how her home had been repeatedly broken into, items moved, and she suspected that her home had been bugged. Incidents occurred to demonstrate that someone had been listening to her conversations or watching her by camera. 

diciembre 4, 2020, the California Department of Agriculture (CDFA) has issued an immediate statewide quarantine and removal of sale of AGRO GOLD WS organic fertilizer due to the presence of Glyphosate and Diquat, which are not listed on the label.

Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the world, predominately used in agriculture directly on our food/feed crops, and has been the subject of tens of thousands of filings of lawsuits for non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, so far totaling to a $10 billion payout. Diquat is a highly toxic chemical known to cause tremors, convulsions and respiratory issues.  It is also highly toxic to birds and livestock such as cows, and detrimental to earth worms and honey bees.  These two highly harmful chemical herbicides have no place in organic products (or any products), and consumers who purchase these products have a right to be outraged by their presence.

On Tuesday diciembre 1, 2020, the CDC's ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON IMMUNIZATION PRACTICES (ACIP) meeting was held to vote on Phase 1a of the COVID vaccine rollout. The meeting was live streamed and was able to be viewed by the public. I watched the presentation for nearly 4 hours to witness the process in which crucial decisions like this are made and relay the information to Moms Across America supporters. Our moms are keenly interested in the topic of vaccines, as many of our children are vaccine damaged and we want to prevent further damage to others. We know first-hand how intense the struggle from the multitude of side effects can be for our elderly parents or family members, how devastating the loss of mobility or speech is, and how tragic it is to have our children’s potential for the future robbed from them. We are very concerned about the first group of people to get this rushed and risky vaccine, especially essential health care workers and our beloved, and most vulnerable parents, grandparents and family members.

Who Should Get the COVID Vaccine First?

Doctors, scientists, and heads of departments such as the CDC, FDA, NIH, HHS, and many other immunization management groups were present. It was a meeting of the minds of the people who control the immunization schedule of the United States of America, 350 million people. The context was set early, “Every minute a person in the United States is dying from COVID...as we have this meeting at least 180 people will die.” The goal on the agenda was to vote on whether or not health care providers and residents of long-term care facilities should be the first to be offered the COVID vaccine, after it was approved by the CDC and ACIP. 

The day before Thanksgiving the EPA released their Biological Evaluation (BE) assessment of potential risks for registered uses of glyphosate to endangered or threatened species or their critical habitat. This federal action is a part of the Registration Review for the license of glyphosate, which has been ongoing for more than ten years, for re approval or denial.

Moms Across America was incredibly disappointed by the actions of the EPA and their refusal to acknowledge the evidence that glyphosate can cause cancer in humans and does cause cancer in animals, as identified by world renowned scientists at the International Agency for Research on Cancer in 2015. One can only surmise that corporate pressure, due to billions of dollars on the line in lawsuits, produced that response. Findings from the EPA on glyphosate herbicide’s environmental impact to endangered species were our only hope for a pathway to restrictions on this dangerous herbicide that is virtually poisoning the entire planet.

There are two important take-aways from the assessment:

1. Although the EPA insists glyphosate alone is not toxic to endangered species and their habitats, it does admit that formulated glyphosate is moderately to highly toxic to fish, highly to very highly toxic to aquatic invertebrates, moderately toxic to mammals, and slightly toxic to birds on an acute exposure basis. This is an important distinction because glyphosate is never used alone. It is, however, approved and licensed alone, and therefore that policy loophole may lead to the demise of thousands of endangered species if the EPA chooses to only consider the evidence on glyphosate alone.
   
   
2. The EPA assessment found glyphosate herbicides caused Likely Adverse Affects (LAA) for 93% of species and 97% of critical habitats-  1,676 species and 759 critical habitats. This means that continuing to allow the use of glyphosate in waterways, forestry, and landscaping will lead to the destruction of these endangered species. We certainly hope glyphosate herbicide use will be banned from these uses immediately.

This has been a year like no other. When my team began the draft of the 2020 report, I assumed that it would be shorter this year, considering COVID, shutdowns, and the BLM protests, but no, they said, we actually did more. I was surprised. How could this be? As I looked back over our activities during these tumultuous times, it became obvious. In challenging times, we mothers and supporters of Moms Across America don’t retreat and hide, we rise up. We find solutions, we support each other. Rather than adding to the collective rage, we generate collective compassion. We celebrate the acts of kindness and get to the source of our skyrocketing health issues - long before COVID - and that is eating a healthy, toxin free diet and restoring our immune system naturally. We did not rest when the USDA lowered their food supply standards due to the shutdown. We mothers rose up and spoke up to hold our government accountable.

Did you know that half of the paper used in the U.S. is used for wrapping and decorating products? Unfortunately this is just one aspect of what can be a very wasteful time of year. While the holidays bring joy to everyone, along with that joy often comes an awfully large amount of waste. In order to reduce that and try some new tactics this year, check out the 100 Year Lifestyle’s guide to doing so.
