Warning - They're Putting Aluminum In Your Food!!!

Aluminum was found to be toxic to the nervous system of animals over 100 years ago. Injecting aluminum into the brains of sheep was reported in 1965 to result in changes in the brain that showed a “striking resemblance” to Alzheimer's disease (AD) in people. In 1973, brains of AD patients were found to contain more aluminum than people dying without this disease. About the same time, kidney patients on dialysis were found to suffer, sometimes fatal, brain damage (encephalopathy) from aluminum in their antacids (these antacids are used to bind phosphates in their intestines). More than 100 toxic actions of aluminum have been identified and many are damaging to the human brain.

The last three decades have seen a steady increase of aluminum in our environment and diet. Aluminum is harmful to all life forms. It damages all types of tissue. "Aluminum is a protoplasmic poison and a pernicious and persistent neurotoxin". No living systems use aluminium as part of a biochemical process. It has a tendency to accumulate in the brain. The danger is one that only manifests itself over long periods of time. It is therefore prudent to avoid consumption. Avoidance is currently the best way of protecting you and your family from the serious, long term damage that can result from ingestion. Pregnant and lactating women, the young and the elderly are at risk. The most effective way of preserving your mental acuity in to your later years appears to be eliminating the sources of aluminum in the diet.

In a study conducted by D.R.C. McLachlan and colleagues, it was found that a relationship did exist between the number of diagnosed AD cases and the level of aluminum present in the drinking water supply. This study concluded that between 15,180 and 26,910 of the estimated 66,000 to 117,000 cases of AD might have been prevented if the aluminum concentration in the municipal water supply had been kept below 100 micrograms per liter.

Aluminium fluoride which is present in drinking water. Minute quantities, as little as 0.5 parts per million were found to result in the formation of beta amyloid proteins, a characteristic of Alzheimer's disease.

Most utilities in Europe and the United States exceed the recommended level of 100 micro grammes per litre, some by as much as sixty times! More than half of the water utilities use aluminum sulphate to clarify drinking water. As you can see we seem to have quite an assault on our hands, but this is just one drop in the proverbial aluminum additives bucket!

There has long been concern that a high intake of aluminum is associated with an increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Research so far has focused on the effect of drinking water which may contain from 0.1 to 0.2 mg of aluminum per liter. Studies have shown that drinking aluminum-contaminated water may double AD risk. Now researchers at the State University of New York provide convincing evidence that aluminum-containing foods constitute a much greater risk than does drinking water. http://www.yourhealthbase.com/database/a90e.htm

Bread can contain up to 40mg/Kg aluminum. Some muffins, waffles and donuts have even more in the form of aerating agents.

Please allow me to pause here and interject a thought. Since the link between AD and aluminum is known why are they putting it in our water, medicines, vitamins, toothpaste and foods? Since it is a known neurotoxin wouldn't it be wise to eliminate public exposure as much as possible instead of increasing exposure? Are they deliberately trying to poison us? Personally I believe they are. There is much money in the neurological disease racket. What else can possibly explain it?

In the United States, aluminum potassium sulfate is the only approved substance used in vaccines. Some researchers consider this a serious matter and suspect that the amounts given during routine vaccination can cause an ongoing inflammatory response in the brain.
The principal symptom of aluminum poisoning is the loss of intellectual function; forgetfulness, inability to concentrate, irate behavior, and in extreme cases, full blown dementia. It is also known to cause bone softening and bone mass loss, kidney and other soft tissue damage, in large doses it can cause cardiac arrest.
Feeding even relatively small amounts of some aluminum salts to laboratory animals results in brain tissue damage identical to that found in Alzheimer's sufferers (neuro-fibrillary tangles). Recent research using laboratory rats has identified aluminum fluoride as a particularly nasty substance, it readily penetrates the blood-brain barrier. Significant damage was registered when they were given drinking water with only 0.5 parts per million concentration.
Another obvious and easily avoided source is aluminum cooking pots and pans, this can be quite easily remedied by using enamelled, stainless steel and cast iron pots. Cooking in earthenware and glass containers is another option.

Aluminum is not always indicated as an ingredient in foods, however you can cut down on your aluminum intake by eliminating the foods that do list any aluminum containing compounds.

Aluminum containing food compounds may be called:

Silicic acid
aluminum sodium salt
Sodium aluminosilicate
Aluminosilicic acid
sodium salt
Sodium aluminum silicate
Aluminum sodium silicate
Sasil
Alum
aluminum trisilicate
kaolin
Aluminum sulfate
Aluminum fluoride
Aluminum stearate
Aluminum hydroxide
Aluminum is found in:

Some vitamins
Some supplements
Sugar
Salt
Processed cheese
Flour
Baking soda
Anti-perspirants
Toothpaste (especially tooth whitening products)
Aluminum cookware and utensils
Aluminum foil
Dried eggs
Dried Milk
Vending machine powders (coffee, cocoa, soup)
Milk and cream powders
Grated cheese
Icing sugar
Baking powder
Cake mixes
Instant soup powders
Drinking chocolate
Antacids,
Buffered aspirin
Some beers
M&Ms
Many body lotions and cremes
Most cosmetics
Shampoos and conditioners
Soaps
Suntan lotions
Lip Balm
Over-the-counter medications and prescription drugs containing aluminum are too numerous to list. Read labels and consult your doctor and pharmacist.

Ingredients are frequently listed separately on over-the-counter drug packages. Active ingredients are sometimes located on one side of the box, and the inactive ingredients on the other side. This confusing labeling practice is potentially dangerous and should be outlawed.
There are many anti-caking agents. Here is a list: (not all of these contain aluminum)
Sodium aluminosilicate
Hexacyanoferrates
Magnesium carbonate
bentonite
calcium silicate
Silicon dioxide
Dicalcium phosphate
Kaolin
Potato starch
Microcrystalline cellulose
Calcium silicate
Dimethyl polysiloxane
Sodium bicarbonate
Talcum powder
E535
E536
E538
E541
E551
E552
E553 a
E553 b
E554 Sodium aluminium silicate
E555
E556 Calcium aluminium silicate
E558
E559 Aluminium silicate (Kaolin)
E570

Food colorings to watch for that contain aluminum:
"Organic" colorings such as Cochineal
Aluminum lake
5E173 - Aluminium (banned in some countries)

Who uses aluminum in their products? Below is just a short list to illustrate how widely used aluminum is.

Red Barron Pizza
MISSION flour tortillas
CARNATION HOT COCOA MIX
PILLSBURY PRODUCTS
CREAMORA
MC DONALD'S
KFC Chicken
TACO BELL
PIZZA HUT
Kraft Foods
Winchell's Donuts

I will conclude with a few questions that I hope will open some eyes. Firstly, why are these mega corporations using aluminum additives when there are plenty of cheaper alternatives? Secondly, why is the FDA allowing this known neurotoxin to be added to virtually all consumer goods unnecessarily?The motive certainly cannot be good will !!!

Avoiding the additives above will cost a little vigilance, but the payoff will be beyond measure! What is your mind worth to you? Value it because the FDA and the mega corporations have proven they don't!






The Enemies Within

The following is a documented chronicle of internal enemies of the people and Constitution of the US. This list is not complete, and is an ongoing project.

"The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer." - Henry Kissinger

Many Mexican illegals and radical racist organizations such as MEChA and the Mexica Movement claim the US is their land.

AZTLAN refers to a fictional land now known as the U.S. southwestern states.

MEChA claims these lands were stolen from Mexico (disclaiming the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, $15 million paid, etc.), and must be reconquered ("Reconquista")

MEChA was founded for the sole purpose of infiltrating our educational system and, by lies and propaganda, literally "brainwashing" students with anti-American sentiment, hate and violence with the ultimate goal of revolution and the overthrow of the U.S. government.

This is of course sedition and treason. What do you suppose would happen to any citizen who organized to overthrow the government?

The first MEChA chapter was established in 1969 on the U.C. Santa Barbara campus as "El Plan de Aztlan".- MEChA is a growing and increasingly militant Chicano presence on university, high school and junior high school campuses. According to MIGUEL CARILLO, a Chula Vista HS teacher, there are MEChA chapters at over 90% of the high schools in San Diego and Los Angeles.

This is what the MEChA Constitution says (Article II, section 1):"General membership shall consist of any student who accepts, believes and works for the goals and objectives of MEChA, including the liberation of AZTLAN, meaning self-determination of our people in this occupied state and the physical liberation of our land."

Antonio Villaraigosa, Cruz Bustamante, Raul Grijalva, and other prominent Latino politicians say to this day, that they are proud to have been Mechistas. GW Bush wants to grant legal status to 20 million of them. Do they all support this subversive agenda? Polls show as many as 60% do. That is a serious threat to our national security.

The video below provides tangible evidence of an anti-American sentiment within the illegal alien population. Unfortunately these subversives are being materially supported by far left anarchist and communist movements as shown.




The US Food and Drug Administration Commissioners Andrew von Eschenbach, Mark McClellan and Lester Mills Crawford

The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) of 1992 was the most significant statutory attempt in the 1990s to accelerate the FDA drug approval process. The Act provided that the FDA was entitled to collect a substantial application fee from drug manufacturers at the time an NDA was submitted, with those funds designated for use only in drug approval activities. In order to continue collecting such fees, the FDA is required to meet certain performance benchmarks, primarily related to the speed of certain activities within the NDA review process.

Let's translate: The FDA is paid by the Pharmaceutical companies to speed up approval of drugs for the market. Approval time for non-priority new drugs dropped from 27 months to 14 months. In many cases with deadly consequences.For example, VIOXX which killed more than 60,000. About 60 percent of FDA inspectors and managers hold stocks and other interests in drug and health related companies which they oversee.

On October 17, 2006, Crawford pleaded guilty "to conflict of interest and false reporting of information about stocks he owned in food, beverage and medical device companies he was in charge of regulating. He never did any time of course, and neither do any of the other employees working for the FDA.

The PDUFA program has been roundly criticized in the mainstream medical literature as creating conflicts of interest between the pharmaceutical industry and the FDA. The high number of mandated post-approval safety studies that have not been completed by drug manufacturers, 71%, is cited as evidence that the PDUFA is more focused more on the rapid approval of drugs, and less upon patient safety. Volumes have been written about the alleged FDA criminal enterprise but nothing has been done until now.

Ladies and gentlemen please view the video below for an eye-opening documentary on the FDA and Big Pharma that will make your blood boil!

FDA - Corruption in the FDA - Prescription For Disaster


Bear in mind that the FDA also:
  • Allows aluminum (a known neuro-toxin linked to Alzheimers) additives to be placed in our foods

  • Allows mercury (a known neuro-toxin linked to Autism) in vaccines even after the so-called ban

  • Allows its employees to invest in companies it regulates and polices

  • Has employees that used to work for companies it regulates and polices

  • Is setting it's sights on heavy restrictions of vitamins and supplements giving pharmaceutical companies control manufacturing and pricing (as they are now doing in many European nations)


Johnny Sutton is the United States Attorney for the Western District of Texas based in San Antonio. Sutton also chairs the Attorney General's Advisory Committee of United States Attorneys. He has been described by his mentor, U.S. President George W. Bush, as "my dear friend."

Border agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean were prosecuted by an attorney of Sutton's office for misconduct in the shooting and wounding of Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila, a drug smuggler who had illegally crossed the border between Mexico and the US near Fabens, Texas.

According to the court case, the agents fired fifteen shots at the fleeing man, who was unarmed, in broad daylight on February 17, 2005. Aldrete-Davila was wounded in his buttocks. Ramos and Compean later removed their shell casings from the scene and further filed a false report about the incident with their department. Aldrete-Davila’s van contained nearly eight hundred pounds of marijuana. Aldrete-Davila was granted use immunity, given a border crossing card, and medical treatment in exchange for giving his testimony against Ramos and Compean.

Aldrete-Davila has also filed a $5 million lawsuit against the U.S. government, claiming that his civil rights were violated. Based on testimony by Aldrte-Davila and border patrol colleagues, border agent Jose Compean was sentenced to twelve years and agent Ramos to eleven years and one day in October 2006.Published court documents have revealed that Aldrete-Davila was implicated in the smuggling of another load of marijuana into the US a mere four months before the trial. This information was presented to the defense attorneys and the United States federal district judge and the court ruled it was inadmissable at the time of trial.
