Si tiene un hijo adolescente, es probable que aproximadamente el 1000% haya visto a otros o haya intentado vapear. Para mi hijo, está inundado por los vapores de olor dulce cada vez que va al baño de su escuela secundaria. De acuerdo a Congresista Pallone, las estadísticas indican que 1 / 3 de 12 alumnos de grado son usuarios de cigarrillos electrónicos.

When parents think about the dangers their children face, they often first think about smoking...and educate their children on the dangers of tobacco. They typically discuss the health risks associated with smoking cigarettes and cigars or chewing tobacco. Statistics show that however, that traditional cigarette use has declined consistently for decades, nicotine use is still on the rise. This increase in nicotine consumption among teens and young adults can be linked to vaping. In 2017, 11% of high schoolers vaped, and in 2018, that number increased to 20.8% of all high school students in the United States.

We hope you have heard by now that tomorrow is a Global Call to Action Day- Climate Strike! on septiembre 20. 

De nuestros amigos en MADE SAFE, "These climate strikes will launch a sustained mass public mobilization, necessary to pressure world governments to take action in line with climate science and justice. This is a worldwide marathon that every living thing on our planet desperately needs us to participate in.

A primera vista, parece una tontería tener un mes entero dedicado a la conciencia del autocuidado. Todos sabemos lo importante que es cuidarnos: ponernos nuestra propia máscara de oxígeno primero, como dice el refrán. Sin embargo, saber algo y actuar de esa manera, hacer algo, son dos cosas muy diferentes. Es muy fácil cortar esquinas cuando se trata de nuestro propio bienestar, nuestra propia salud o tranquilidad. Generalmente somos las primeras personas que descuidamos. Los atajos ocasionales se convierten en hábitos y, antes de que te des cuenta, estamos estresados, abrumados y enfermos. Y la ironía es que, cuando llegamos a ese punto, somos completamente incapaces de cuidar a los demás, a las personas que más nos importan.

Los impactantes correos electrónicos de Monsanto revelan mentalidad violenta, misógina y total desprecio por la salud infantil 

Artículo de Zen Honeycutt, Mamás en todo Estados Unidosagosto 29, 2019 Mission Viejo, CA - Nuevos correos electrónicos revelados de las pruebas de Monsanto y puesto en registro público por la firma de abogados Baum, Hedlund, Arestei y Goldman en julio, muestran una perspectiva inquietante de la cultura de Monsanto. Palabras incendiarias en un intercambio de correo electrónico por Dan goldstein, El líder de Monsanto en Ciencias Médicas y Alcance, Distinguished Science Fellow y pediatra, Bruce chassy, profesor de la Universidad de Illinois, y Loro wayne desde el Universidad de georgia incluye las palabras, "madres tontas" y  “Ahí tienes. Ese es tu enemigo. Derrótalos y ponlos a la defensiva y no tendrás este problema ". 

The email exchange was focused on the “Open Letter to Monsanto” from our consumer group Moms Across America sent to the chemical company before the Independence Day parades in 2013, when we joined into parades for educational outreach about GMOs. The email exchange shows clear distress over the health accusations from our consumer group...predicting an ominous outcome: “We are on our way to being corporate roadkill.” Goldstein was correct. He is no longer employed by Monsanto, and Monsanto has been purchased by Bayer.

El productor occidental reportado que un agricultor en el Valle del Río Rojo de Manitoba ha declarado que General Mills, el fabricante de Cheerios y Nature Valley, está exigiendo a los agricultores en su programa de sostenibilidad que suspendan el uso de glifosato como agente de secado en los cultivos antes de la cosecha.

Baum Hedlund Arestei Goldman, the law firm representing the plaintiff in the court case against Monsanto who was recently awarded more than $2billion in damages by an Oakland, CA jury, released de-classified documents from the trial on agosto 15, 2019.

Among the damning batch of Monsanto Papers de-designated on marzo 1 and julio 22 are a series of emails between Dr. Daniel Goldstein, Wayne Parrott, and Bruce Chassy discussing Moms Across America, where Dr. Goldstein explains, "I have been arguing for a week to beat the s*** out of them and have clearly lost. We don’t want to be seen as beating up on mothers, nobody will listen to it anyway, it has to be done by third parties…" to which Dr. Chassy responds, "You can't beat up mothers, even if they are dumb mothers but you can beat up the organic industry that paid for and wrote that letter. With a little imagination you can even make it fun.”

“Although the misogynistic and violent language in Monsanto’s emails are shocking, I am not surprised. I have been experiencing online attacks, along with many others, likely from Monsanto’s “Let Nothing Go” campaign, for years. However, the truly troubling issue isn’t the disturbing behavior of a few men, but the fact that Bayer and our federal government continue to completely disregard public health by continuing to sell and allow the use of Roundup and glyphosate herbicides.”

We learned of our son’s severe food allergies when he was just six months old. Exposing him to the tiniest bite of bread induced hours of swelling and vomiting, symptoms I later learned were part of his anaphylactic response to wheat. The years that followed were a crash course into restrictive diets as we slowly learned of other food allergies and a whole list of intolerances. Our lives were further complicated when our daughter was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) at just two weeks of age. CF is a genetic disease impacting the lungs and pancreas, and we suddenly found ourselves overwhelmed by the allergic demands of one child and the medical treatments of another.

In 2017, Moms Across America posted a lengthy article by Camilla Rees, Senior Policy Advisor, National Institute for Science, Law and Public Policy and Founder, ElectromagneticHealth.org and ManhattanNeighbors.org. entitled “The Wireless Elephant in the Room.” In it she urged us to wake up before the tipping point:

The day will arrive when the profound injury to our lives and future generations from wireless technologies will be known, including not just the biological and health effects, and links to disease, but the psychological effects, like poorly developed self-worth, and other effects, such as compulsive behaviors, addiction, and isolation. We are being conditioned like rats on a treadmill, increasingly addicted to technology and unable to stop taking the drug. Many children have never known the quality of life possible un-tethered to the non-stop universe. They don’t know peace, or the sense of safety and inner guidance possible in complete stillness, when one is deeply connected to the natural world, or in the community, and not connected to man-made electronics.

I love my microbes and all they do for me. Not a week goes by that I don't discover something new that my 100 trillion microbes are doing just for me. I used to think that my liver was mostly responsible for filtering and removing compounds from within my body including hundreds of toxic chemicals and extra hormones (like estrogen) that can damage cells and weaken my immune system, but this is only half of the story. Your bacteria in your gut are responsible for 50% of the detoxification that your body undergoes, but if you don't have the right microbes and a lot of them, they can't do their job. So, what do bacteria do to detoxify you?

August is generally regarded as the last month of summer. It is hot, and often lazy, and for many of us it is the time when we make the transition from summer fun to back-to-school. However, August is also the month when Martin Luther King, Jr. inspired millions with his “I Have a Dream” speech. On agosto 28, 1963, Dr. King stood in front of a sea of people of all colors, ages, and backgrounds and shared his vision for freedom for all. It is a speech that is as referenced and revered today as it was the day he delivered it - and has, no doubt, inspired millions around the world to have their own dream.

"You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one"

-- John Lennon
