AMERICA’S FOOD SUPPLY FERTILIZED WITH HUMAN REMAINS AND COATED WITH NANOPARTICLES

"Here’s the latest from Greg Reese.

TRANSCRIPT

The FDA has allowed nanoparticles into the food supply under the Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) provision, because they claim that they are no more dangerous than their larger counterparts.

Titanium is generally safe, therefore, nano titanium must be safe. But they also admit that, “Materials can exhibit new or altered physicochemical properties at nanoscale dimensions,” including unknown safety hazards that they will continue to monitor for.

In other words, the human trials for consumable nanotechnology is currently happening in the public without their knowledge.

Nanoparticles can be absorbed into our immune defense system and into our bloodstream.

Just like the FDA admits, materials at the nanoscale can cause unknown changes in a person’s biological system.

Animal studies have proven that nanoparticles are changing the way our bodies absorb certain minerals, such as iron.

FDA chemist, Timothy Duncan wrote that nanotechnology in the food supply is being held back, because the food supply industry is afraid of public backlash and argues that nanotechnology will somehow make food healthier.

The FDA is far more concerned with pushing more of these experimental nanoparticles into the food supply than they are with safety.

Like they said about giving the dangerous experimental vaxxine to your kids, “We’re never gonna to learn about how safe the vaxxine is until we start giving it.”

At least 20 products are adding nanoparticles into their ingredients and they are getting ready to coat bananas in new nanotech.

But companies are not required to disclose nano-sized ingredients, so we don’t know how prevalent it is.

Along with being a proponent of population reduction, forced-vaccinations, and genetically-modified foods, Bill Gates is also the biggest private farm owner in America.

Does anyone doubt for a second that Bill Gates is allowing this dangerous nanotech the FDA is pushing for into America’s food supply?

In related news, 10 out of the 19 states in which Gates own farmland, along with at least another ten have recently made it legal to dispose of human bodies into the municipal water supply, allowing human remains to be added to biosolids-sourced fertilizer.

It’s called “alkaline hydrolysis” and is referred to in pop culture as being “very, very green.”

Spiritual leaders have strongly objected to alkaline hydrolysis, because they say it is disrespectful to the human body, the vessel of a divine soul and it’s understandable why they say this.

In alkaline hydrolysis, the human body is liquefied with lye and poured down the sewer to mix in with the community’s excrement.

And if that weren’t bad enough, this biosludge is then collected from municipal water treatment plants and used as so-called fertilizer on factory farms.

The official excuse is that it saves the government money for expensive toxic waste disposal.

Meanwhile, we are all being sold food that has been grown with a toxic biosludge made of human remains and excrement, which is then loaded with new and strange nanotechnology.

Interestingly, the dystopian movie, Soylent Green took place in 2022."

I am reminded of the 'Grey Goo' - a nano pollution idea, another aspect of modern life under the technocrats we can look forward to, I am kind of glad I don't have much longer to serve on the prison planet, I feel so sorry for future generations really.

[palehorse]

They want everything artificial, these freak people are not happy enough with God's creation, they think they can do better (what a joke). Screw them all and their science and ****. Disgusting. I am NOT contributing to advance the world in any way, form, shape or color. I believe in the natural laws, in fact it is the only laws I do respect.

[DNA]

Terrifying.
How do we avoid all of this?
Organic labeled food?
The elite and their cronies in the know have to have an alternative.
I remember Kevin Trudeau in his book that he went to prison for said simply this.
The elite have decided to depopulate the masses using poisoned food and the pharma companies and if you wished to avoid their intent you should eat only organic food.

Kind of tough to go to a farmers market for everything.
As such can we trust the FDA organic label?

Grow your own as much as you can. The more people that do it, even if it is just one tomato, the better.

[yelik]

They lead us to believe that small amounts of toxins or nano particles are safe but satan inverts everythink because the smaller the particle the worse it is. Even small amounts of toxins build up over time to cause illness and disease.

Its like the smoke coming out of an industrial chimney is hardly visible because the particle size is small and is perceived to be safe - another inversion of truth where big corporations write the pollution laws and regulations which makes us believe the levels are safe and legal. At least big smoke particles you can see and know they are dangerous.

I've been eating organic foods as much as possible since I was in my 20s.
When you shop regularly at farmer's markets and health food stores, you develop a sense of what is really organic and what isn't.

I've been doing it since 09'. I wish I would have had the good sense to have done this like yourself and for all long but it took an angelic b!tch slap with cosmic serindipity to wake me from my commercially induced corporate trusting zombie fuge state I was in.
When it comes to produce big is bad.
Tomatoes, apples, potatoes, these things are not meant to be super big and when they are you have to suspect genetic modification.
But what about flour, spaghetti, beans and milk?
These things are kind of ubiquitous. As such the only thing to go on is the USDA organic seal on the label.
So do we trust it?

For flour and pasta (eg: spaghetti) here is what you can do:

Buy organic wheat (in the unrefined form... wheat berry). You can get it huge quantities, like 20kilo (44lbs) at a time if you want and if you store it right its good for many years (20 years is possible !)

I use a country living grain mill http://www.countrylivinggrainmills.com/ to make just enough flour for my needs of the moment. This is important as once ground it has a massive exposure to the air and degrades fast.

Then make the spaghetti with that flour - lol

Bread... I prefer not to buy it, if I can and there is time I make it. My bread is great and I freeze some for later.

The more you do yourself, the fewer steps in the way from the food that is grown to your plate which are not performed by you. Clearly this reduces the risk of unwanted adulteration to your food.

Essentially, they are giving us our own executed, rotted bodies to eat. They regard us worse than what they are doing to the poor animals (which also has to stop). If you let EVIL RULE YOU it will kill off all humans. GATES is said to be from a family espousing EUGENICS, and FAUCI appears to be making the witches brew. Do you love your children, your parents, your own lives, stop the murderers for they are coming for you now.

[Bubu]

Most of the poison gets into the food in the processing and by way of chemicals fed into the plants.

Would be a lot better if someone is ahead of the processing. I mean consume unprocess food and dont eat chem foods. Plants that are hardy, grew everywhere all the time are 99% poison free. They cost next to nothing and therefore no one bothers to boost their production. no fertilizers no pesticides.

[Metalaane]

However complicated the finer points may become - literally, nano sized points! - there's things anyone in any situation can do to assuage the harm done by these toxins as well as reaping proper benefits in other aspects of their health. Fasting is an obvious thing to do, it ramps up the body's clean up processes such as autophagy. I can't say for sure if that cleans up things like micro-plastics but it will at least clean up the cells that become damaged by said micro-anythings. Really, proper fasting is, by my estimates, the best prevention of cancer that's been publicly disclosed. Cancer is caused by damaged cells having turned senescent and losing their apoptosis mechanism, and in theory enough fasting enables the body to always catch these damaged cells in time to be recycled before they make a mess of things.

Working on the macro side of things is also a good help. In this context, macronutrients. Fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Did you know that the Human body does not require carbohydrates? Fat and protein is essential but there is no such thing as an essential carbohydrate. The body is perfectly capable of producing its own required glucose, that which carbohydrates would provide if they were being consumed, via the process of gluconeogenesis. Any additional glucose above this base level that the body will automatically maintain on its own is, in most cases, more detrimental than it is beneficial. By my estimates you'd only ever want to carb load for very intensive exercise, particularly of an explosive variety. This is why. Ketones, straight up, give you more energy than glucose does. Head to toe, inside and out.

This can be a controversial thing in communities like this, though. There's an overlap between spiritual people and plant based ways of eating and it's no wonder why. (You could do vegan-keto...if you can afford tons of avocados and expensive nuts...)

Ideally...we would all live on our own farms and raise our food by our own exacting measures, be that primarily produce or cattle. Until then, compromises have to be made, especially if you're lower income with no land to use for food, such as is my situation. If my own results can be extrapolated to most other people, a ketogenic way of eating - meat heavy and all that - combined with frequent fasting, seems to be the best way to keep your physical health as good as it can be in lieu of that Neo Garden of Eden that I wish for.

Especially so, if you consider that even if produce is labeled as "non GMO" and "organic", it's still very likely grown in topsoil that's depleted of nutrients. I suspect even some family farms are guilty of that practice, but no doubt any produce in your normal grocery, again labeled as such above, is quite guilty of that. Animal products, though, are not as impacted by shoddy, shall we say, fuel. If the nutrients in the topsoil is the fuel for plants, then the feed for today's cattle is the fuel for them. A cut of meat from a cow, no matter how miserably tragic that cow lived, is always going to go farther than soy grown in miserable soil.

I rambled a lot here, maybe a bit off topic, but these are things that I remind myself of when the actual topic of this thread weighs on my mind. Physical health is something of a special interest of mine and I would absolutely love to see just how healthy and fit I can make my own body before age starts inhibiting such an endeavor. Sometimes it really gets me down that there are things that are simply beyond my control right now, such as microtoxins. But then I remember that in spite of it, I thrive a whole lot better than the next guy who's surely got microtoxins in him too, and it's because I eat a ketogenic meal one time a day. KETOOMAD! No calories outside of a two hour window, lots of water and tea, and lots of exercise.

Disgusting Source of the Majority of Urinary Tract Infections
by Dr. Joseph Mercola
March 31, 2022
https://articles.mercola.com/sites/a...rid=1448531422


"STORY AT-A-GLANCE
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) affect anywhere from 25% to 60% of women over the course of their lifetime, and hospitalization rates for UTIs in the U.S. rose by 52% between 1998 and 2011 as a result of increasing antimicrobial resistance
Researchers have found the reason UTIs tend to have such a high recurrence rate in postmenopausal women is because the infection can be caused by several different pathogens that are deeply embedded in the tissue, making them more resistant to elimination
In addition to E. coli, bacteria in urine samples included Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterococcus faecalis, and species in biopsied tissue included E. coli, Staphylococcus hominis and Bacillus firmus
About 80% to 90% of UTIs are caused by E.coli, which is normally found in your intestinal tract.
Problems only arise when this ordinary bacterium is present in high numbers in your urinary system
Recent studies have conclusively demonstrated that a majority of UTIs are caused by exposure to contaminated chicken: American, Canadian and European studies have all confirmed close genetic matches between drug-resistant E. coli collected from human patients and those found on poultry

This article was previously published May 29, 2019, and has been updated with new information.

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) affect anywhere from 25%1 to 60%2,3 of women over the course of their lifetime. According to research published in 2015, UTIs were responsible for 10.5 million doctor visits in the U.S. in 2007.4

A study5 published in the journal Open Forum Infectious Diseases in 2017 noted hospitalization rates for UTIs in the U.S. rose by 52% between 1998 and 2011 — a direct result of increasing antimicrobial resistance.

According to this study, there were 400,000 UTI-related hospitalizations in 2011, with an estimated cost of $2.8 billion. The highest rates of increase were seen in women and older patients.

In the past, recurrent UTIs were thought to be caused by reinfection by the same pathogen,6 but recent research7,8,9 published in the Journal of Molecular Biology suggests this pattern has changed, and the reason why UTIs tend to have such a high recurrence rate in postmenopausal women is because the infection can be caused by several different pathogens.

According to the authors, the data uncovered via urine and bladder biopsies "suggest that diverse bacterial species and the adaptive immune response play important roles" in recurrent UTIs.

Pathogenic Mechanisms of UTIs
Women are more prone to urinary tract infections than men, in part because of their shorter urethras. Adult men have another factor going for them. The male prostate gland actually produces a bacterial growth inhibitor that is secreted directly into their urinary system.10

According to research11 published in 2015, several different pathogens can trigger a UTI; most commonly Escherichia coli (E.coli), Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus saprophyticus. Of these, about 80% to 90% are caused by E.coli,12,13 which is normally found in the intestinal tract.14

Problems only arise when this ordinary bacterium is present in high numbers in places where it shouldn't be, like your urinary system. When E. coli gets into your urinary tract and multiplies, you experience the usual signs and symptoms of a UTI, such as:15

Burning with urination
Frequent urges to urinate
Lower abdominal pain or aching
Blood in your urine (sometimes, but not always)
Cloudy or foul-smelling urine
The reason your body cannot simply expel the E. coli through urination is because the bacteria are covered with tiny fingerlike projections called fimbria, made of an amino acid-sugar complex, a glycoprotein called lectin, which makes them sticky.

This stickiness allows the bacteria to adhere to the inner wall of your bladder and/or work their way upward toward your kidneys, at which point the situation can become quite serious.

Sepsis is another complication of untreated or unsuccessfully treated UTI (which can happen if the infection is caused by drug-resistant bacteria), which can be life-threatening. An infusion of intravenous vitamin C with hydrocortisone and thiamine has been shown to reduce mortality from sepsis nearly fivefold, but many health care professionals are still unaware of this revolutionary treatment.

In addition to the symptoms already mentioned, a UTI in an older individual can also result in sudden behavioral changes such as restlessness, agitation, lethargy or social withdrawal, mental confusion and even hallucinations and delirium.16

According to Dr. Amanda Smith, medical director at the Byrd Alzheimer's Institute at the University of South Florida, symptoms of UTI in the elderly actually tend to be primarily behavioral,17 which can result in delayed diagnosis and treatment. So, doctors of elderly patients exhibiting these kinds of behavioral symptoms, especially when combined with low-grade fever, should have them checked for UTI.18

Recurrent UTIs Linked to Variety of Pathogens in Bladder Wall
What the Journal of Molecular Biology study discovered was that different types of bacteria form colonies deep in the tissue of the bladder wall, past the urothelium layer in many cases, making them very difficult to get rid of. As noted by Science Daily, which reported the Journal of Molecular Biology findings:19

"[F]or some postmenopausal women, UTIs recur so frequently that they become a chronic condition, requiring daily doses of increasingly powerful antibiotics as the infection-causing bacteria gradually become resistant to each new drug.

'For older women, these infections can go on for tens of years,' said Dr. Nicole De Nisco, assistant professor of biological sciences at UT Dallas and lead author of the study. 'Eventually, a patient's last resort might be removing the bladder' …

To investigate the pathogenic mechanisms and immune responses related to recurring UTIs, De Nisco and her colleagues analyzed urine and biopsies from 14 postmenopausal women …

They found that in addition to the expected E. coli, bacteria in urine samples included Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterococcus faecalis, while species in biopsied tissue included E. coli, Staphylococcus hominis and Bacillus firmus.

'Our findings confirm that bacteria do form communities within the bladder wall of RUTI [recurrent UTI] patients, which was not previously known,' De Nisco said. 'This research is a critical step toward better understanding the mechanisms of recurring urinary tract infection and inflammation in postmenopausal women' …

Future studies will focus on determining effective techniques to remove these bacteria and chronic inflammation from the bladder, finding new strategies to enhance immune system response, and pinpointing the various bacterial pathogens involved in RUTIs."

Factory-farmed Chicken — The Leading Source of UTI Infections
Conventional wisdom has maintained UTIs are primarily caused by a transfer of naturally-occurring E. coli via sexual contact with an infected individual and/or the transfer of fecal bacteria from your anus to your urethra by poor personal hygiene. However, more recent studies have conclusively demonstrated that a majority of UTIs are actually caused by exposure to contaminated chicken.20

Importantly, factory-farmed chickens are the source of most antibiotic-resistant UTIs — a problem that can be traced back to the routine use of antibiotics for growth-promotion purposes, which has allowed resistance to develop. Drug-resistant E. coli strains from supermarket meat were matched to strains found in human E. coli infections as early as 2005.21

Research22,23 published in 2006 confirmed that humans could develop antibiotic resistance by eating poultry treated with antibiotics. Bacteria from conventional chicken, and those who ate such chicken, were found to be more prone to developing resistance against Synercid (generic names: quinupristin and dalfopristin24), a strong antibiotic used to treat vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium.25

In essence, eating antibiotic-treated chicken can cause you to develop resistance to the last lines of defense currently available in the modern medicine cabinet — a steep price for inexpensive meat! As reported by Infectious Control Today:26

"Laboratory tests showed that the bacteria isolated from patients and vegetarians had no pre-existing resistance to Synercid. Resistance was rare among antibiotic-free poultry, but a majority of bacterial isolates from conventional poultry samples were resistant.

After exposure to virginiamycin, E. faecium from conventional poultry and from patients who consumed poultry became resistant to Synercid more often than E. faecium from vegetarians or from antibiotic-free poultry.

Some of the resistance was attributed to a specific gene, and both the gene and resistance were associated with touching raw poultry meat and frequent poultry consumption."

Genetic Matching Links UTIs to Contaminated Chicken
American, Canadian and European studies27,28,29 published in 2012 all confirmed close genetic matches between drug-resistant E. coli collected from human patients and those found on poultry (chicken and turkey).

More recently, a study30 published in the journal mBio in 2018 found 79.8% of chicken, pork and turkey samples purchased from large retail stores in Flagstaff, Arizona, were contaminated with E. coli. The researchers also tested blood and urine samples from people who visited a major medical center in the area, finding E. coli in 72.4% of those diagnosed with a UTI.

In particular, a strain of E. coli known as E. coli ST131 showed up in both the meat samples (particularly poultry) and the human UTI samples. Most of the E. coli in the poultry was a variety known as ST131-H22, which is known to thrive in birds. This specific strain was also found in the human UTI samples.

"Our results suggest that one ST131 sublineage — ST131-H22 — has become established in poultry populations around the world and that meat may serve as a vehicle for human exposure and infection," the researchers noted, adding that this E. coli lineage is just one of many that may be transmitted from poultry and other meat sources to people.

Make Sure Your Chicken and Eggs Are Organic and Free-Range
While findings such as these are a potent reminder to use caution when handling raw chicken and to cook poultry thoroughly, another option — and perhaps the most sensible and rational approach is to avoid factory-farmed chicken altogether.

It's easily among the most contaminated foods in the U.S., as a recent lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Agriculture for failing to address high rates of fecal bacteria on chicken can attest to. Factory-farmed chicken also has a weak nutritional profile compared to other protein sources, including pasture-raised chicken (which is also less likely to carry harmful contaminants).

For example, a study31,32,33 by the American Pastured Poultry Producers Association (APPPA), which compared the nutrient value of pastured chickens with the USDA's National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference values for CAFO chicken, found pasture-raised chickens contained:

406.8% more vitamin E (1.86 IUs per 100 grams compared to 0.367 IUs)
About half the fats of CAFO chicken (saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated)
An average omega-3-to-6 ratio of 1-to-5, which is near ideal, compared to the USDA's value of 1-to-1534
Considering the hazards associated with raw chicken, if you're going to eat it, I recommend making sure it's organic and free-range, pasture-raised. Ditto for eggs, as CAFO eggs are also far more prone to pathogenic contamination than organic pastured eggs.

Your best bet is to find a local source of organic, free-range eggs and chicken meat. The Cornucopia Institute's egg report and scorecard ranks 136 egg producers according to 28 organic criteria, is an excellent resource if no local producers are available.

In June 2017, Cornucopia also began working on a chicken report and scorecard. Considering the egg report took six years to produce, it may still be a while before the chicken scorecard is ready. You can contribute to this report by following the simple instructions listed in their June 13 Action Alert.35

How to Treat a UTI at Home
As mentioned earlier, the fimbria (fingerlike projections) of E. coli are made of a sticky glycoprotein called lectin, which is why the bacteria are so hard to flush out. It's not impossible however, even without an antibiotic. While antibiotics are typically the go-to treatment, you may be better off starting out with a D-mannose supplement.36

Mannose is produced by your cells and covers the internal lining of your urinary organs. The lectin on the bacteria's fimbria binds to mannose, which is why the bacteria adhere to the walls of your urinary system.

When you take D-mannose, the E. coli adheres to the mannose present in your urine, which is then flushed out when you urinate. As the bacterial load on epithelial cells lessen, they're more easily overtaken by agents of your immune system.

Infections caused by a bacterium other than E. coli may be eliminated by taking a saturated solution of potassium iodide (SSKI). Both of these treatments are recommended by Dr. Jonathan Wright, medical director of Tahoma Clinic in Tukwila, Washington, and the author of the book, "D-Mannose and Bladder Infection: The Natural Alternative to Antibiotics."

For UTIs caused by bacteria or fungi other than E. coli, Wright suggests taking 15 drops of SSKI in water every three to four hours for two days (three days maximum).37 In order to know which of these treatments would work best, you'd need to perform a culture test to identify the bacteria responsible for your infection.

Alternatively, Wright suggests taking D-mannose first, and if significant improvement doesn't occur, move on to SSKI. A culture test is also advisable to rule out a drug-resistant infection, as this will require close medical supervision to avoid serious complications.

UTI Prevention 101
Prevention is, of course, your best option, and as a woman, there are some specific hygiene steps you can take to maintain a healthy urinary tract:

Drink plenty of pure, filtered water every day

Urinate when you feel the need; don't resist the urge to go

Wipe from front to back to prevent bacteria from entering your urethra

Take showers instead of tub baths; avoid hot tubs/Jacuzzis

Cleanse male and female genital areas prior to sexual intercourse

Avoid using feminine hygiene sprays, which may irritate your urethra

Use a bidet

Fermented foods such as kefir, sauerkraut and other fermented vegetables are great for your overall health, including your urinary system.

The Case Against CAFO Chicken

(There is a youtube video in the article which I could not find on youtube)

Lastly, but perhaps most importantly, consider ditching all factory-farmed chicken from your menu. At this point, there's little doubt that chicken raised in concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) are a core component of the growing problem that is antibiotic resistance in general, and UTI infections in particular.

Essentially, by using antibiotics, CAFO birds end up driving a cycle of antibiotic use in human medicine as well, as UTIs are typically treated with antibiotics. But aside from being a source of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and a primary route of UTI infections, there are other reasons to avoid CAFO chicken as well.

In my interview with Maryn McKenna, author of "Big Chicken: The Incredible Story of How Antibiotics Created Modern Agriculture and Changed the Way the World Eats" (embedded above for your convenience), she discusses many of the aspects of the chicken industry that many are still unaware of.

As explained by McKenna, chickens were historically rather scrawny little birds that no one thought to consume as a primary meal on a regular basis. The chicken we eat today bear almost no resemblance to the backyard chickens of old, as they've been specifically bred for meat.

A nationwide contest called "The Chicken of Tomorrow Contest," which took place in the 1940s into the early '50s, led to breeders reshaping the scrawny barnyard chicken into the breast-heavy bird we're familiar with today, and a Republican campaign ad for Herbert Hoover, carrying the slogan "A Chicken for Every Pot," eventually turned chicken meat into a household staple.

Today, chicken production in the U.S. has become an industry that places profits over just about everything else, including animal welfare and farmer's rights. Precision breeding turned the boisterous barnyard chicken into an exceptionally docile animal that didn't (indeed couldn't) move much. These new traits allowed farmers to cram the animals together in tight spaces.

Today, commercial chickens are raised in giant warehouses the length of a football field, which can house 25,000 to 35,000 chickens at a time. There, they live in artificial daylight, with an artificially shortened night. Lack of space prevents them from moving about much and, on average, they only live 42 days. So, avoiding CAFO chicken not only protects your own health, it also encourages the humane treatment of animals.

In contrast, organic, free-range chickens are allowed to engage in their natural behavior in a natural environment (outdoors), and can serve an important role in regenerative agriculture and holistic land management. The lack of stress, access to a natural diet, fresh air and sunshine, makes for healthier birds that don't need antibiotics."

United States to Ban Real Meat (in 2024)
by Dr. Joseph Mercola
April 01, 2022
https://articles.mercola.com/sites/a...rid=1449459778

"STORY AT-A-GLANCE
Evidence that The Great Reset is rapidly approaching can be seen in the recent decision by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to ban real meat, and if history is any indication, the same decision may be taken by other countries as well.
The U.S. ban is slated to take effect April 1, 2024
The decision comes on the heels of repeated public appeals to the Western world by Bill Gates to stop eating real meat as a climate control effort
According to the FDA, natural beef production is a primary culprit of climate change. University of California researchers have measured the amount of methane emitted by the average cow, concluding cattle “are the No. 1 agricultural source of greenhouse gases worldwide”
Each year, a single cow produces about 220 pounds of methane, and methane from cattle is 28 times more potent in warming the atmosphere than carbon dioxide
Livestock raised in massive industrial farming arrangements, aptly called “confined animal feeding operations” (CAFOs), have also been identified as a source of foodborne illness, and is yet another reason why the FDA has decided to ban real meat in favor of synthetic beef

Evidence that The Great Reset is rapidly approaching can be seen in the recent decision by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to ban real meat, and if history is any indication, the same decision may be taken by other countries as well. The U.S. ban is slated to take effect April 1, 2024.

The decision comes on the heels of repeated public appeals to the Western world by Bill Gates to stop eating real meat and transition to lab-grown synthetic “beef” instead.

As explained in the Navdanya International report, “Bill Gates & His Fake Solutions to Climate Change,” an excerpt of which was published by The Defender in April 2021:1

“One of Bill Gates’ most recent promotions is his prescriptions of synthetic foods for developed countries as a means to combat climate change. In a recent interview with MIT Technology Review, Gates says he thinks ‘all rich countries should move to 100% synthetic beef.’

Fake food replaces animal products with highly processed food grown in labs, like fake meat, fake dairy products or fake eggs. It is made possible by technical innovations such as synthetic biology, which involves reconfiguring the DNA of an organism to create something entirely new.

For instance, plant-based meat companies like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods use a DNA coding sequence from soybeans or peas to create a product that looks and tastes like real meat. Some companies are also investing in cell-based meat, grown from real animal cells, but it has yet to reach the market.

More and more firms are getting involved in this fast-growing market, like Motif Foodworks (plant-based meat and dairy alternatives), Ginkgo Bioworks (custom-built microbes), BioMilq (lab-grown breast milk), Nature’s Fynd (fungi-grown meat and dairy alternatives), Eat Just (egg substitutes made from plant proteins), Perfect Day Food (lab-grown dairy products) or NotCo (plant-based animal products made through AI), to name but a few.”

Beef Production Pegged as ‘Prime Culprit’ of Climate Change
According to Gates and other synthetic beef proponents — and now the FDA — natural beef production is a primary culprit of climate change.

Cattle are the No. 1 agricultural source of greenhouse gases worldwide. ~ UC Davis
A number of institutions have evaluated the environmental impact of cows and other livestock over the years, including University of California, Davis, where researchers like Frank Mitloehner have been busy measuring the amount of methane emitted by the average cow.2 According to UC Davis:3

“Cattle are the No. 1 agricultural source of greenhouse gases worldwide. Each year, a single cow will belch about 220 pounds of methane. Methane from cattle is shorter lived than carbon dioxide but 28 times more potent in warming the atmosphere, said Mitloehner, a professor and air quality specialist in the Department of Animal Science.”

Meat Is Also Implicated in Foodborne Disease
Livestock raised in massive industrial farming arrangements, aptly called “confined animal feeding operations” (CAFOs), have also been identified as a source of foodborne illness. Covered in feces and urine, dehydrated and often sickly, these animals are slaughtered using mechanized tools and procedures that convey these infection-loaded excreta into the final meat product.

The food and food-contaminant combination that causes the most harm to human health is campylobacter, which sickens more than 1.5 million people4 and costs the U.S. an estimated $1.3 billion a year. In second place is toxoplasma, costing society another $8 billion5 annually.

Despite the obvious reality of foodborne illness, very little was actually known about which foods were the riskiest until a report6 from the University of Florida's Emerging Pathogens Institute revealed the pathogen-food combinations most likely to make you sick. The report, issued in 2011, showed that the data overwhelmingly pointed to tainted meats as the prime culprits.

Realizing that pasteurization of animal products such as milk falls way short of protecting human health, the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 2014 proposed tackling the No. 1 source of costly foodborne illness — raw meat — by placing restrictions on the sale of raw meat.

The proposal didn’t go anywhere, but the FDA is now pointing to it as yet another reason to ban natural meat sales altogether. Lab-grown synthetic “beef” does not have any of these issues, they claim, due to the fact that all of the ingredients in each batch can be carefully controlled.

Beef Consumption Is ‘Unsustainable’
As reported by UC Davis:7

“With the escalating effects of climate change, that fact has advocates urging the public to eat less beef. They contend it’s an unsustainable diet in a world with a population expected to reach nearly 10 billion by 2050.”

As mentioned, Gates is one such anti-beef advocate. In mid-February 2021, he gave an interview with MIT Technology Review, in which he suggested that that synthetic beef, such as Impossible Foods (which he cofounded with Google and Jeff Bezos), “is a key part of climate action,” as it would eliminate a key source of global greenhouse gas emissions.8

Gates has also suggested that synthetic beef could eliminate the “protein problem,” i.e., the fact that we’re facing a global shortage of protein-rich foods in the wake of the COVID pandemic.9

The strong recommendation to replace beef with fake meat is made in Gates' book "How to Avoid a Climate Disaster: The Solutions We Have and the Breakthroughs We Need," which was released in February 2021. As for the issue of taste, Gates assured MIT Technology Review10 that:

“You can get used to the taste difference, and ... they’re going to make it taste even better over time.”

The irony of Bill Gates — who lives in a 66,000-square-foot mansion and travels in a private jet that uses up 486 gallons of fuel every hour11 — talking about how to save the environment isn't lost on everyone. Two days after his MIT Technology Review interview, The Nation criticized Gates' contradictions, including the fact that his jet-setting lifestyle also makes him a carbon "super emitter":12

"According to a 2019 academic study13 looking at extreme carbon emissions from the jet-setting elite, Bill Gates's extensive travel by private jet likely makes him one of the world's top carbon contributors — a veritable super emitter. In the list of 10 celebrities investigated — including Jennifer Lopez, Paris Hilton, and Oprah Winfrey — Gates was the source of the most emissions."

Impossible Foods Holds 14 Patents, Has 100+ Pending
Impossible Foods' products resemble nothing found in nature. That's why the company holds 14 patents, with at least 100 more pending. "It's not food; it's software, intellectual property" — 14 patents, in fact, in each bite of Impossible Burger with over 100 additional patents pending for animal proxies from chicken to fish.

Natural foods cannot be patented, but Impossible Foods' products certainly can be. Impossible Foods' products are heavily processed and created in production rooms — not grown in or found in nature. Their science project creations are also heavily protected.

And the creator holds all the cards. They own the “food” and are the only ones allowed to make the “food.” All fake meat consumers lacking options for real food will be dependent on the patented ultraprocessed goo.

Circumventing Problematic Labeling Challenge
The idea is that by making the transition from real beef to synthetic “meats” in wealthier nations first, we would have the best chance of positively impacting the environment while simultaneously reducing world hunger.

In the interview, Gates admitted that use of regulation might be required “to totally shift the demand.” With that statement, he’s basically proven his “prophetic powers” yet again. At the time, he confessed that “the politics are challenging,” especially with regard to labeling. He told MIT Technology Review:

“There are all these bills that say it’s got to be called, basically, lab garbage to be sold. They don’t want us to use the beef label.”

The controversy became clear during a July 2018 public meeting convened by the FDA to discuss the naming of lab-grown meat. As reported by The Atlantic,14 various speakers referred to the lab concoctions as “clean meat,” “artificial meat,” “in vitro meat,” “cell culture products,” “cultured meat” or “culture tissue.”

Each term had its advocates and critics and consensus seemed impossible to reach. Now, with the ban on real meat sales in the U.S., the FDA basically resolves this challenge, as no special labels will be required. ALL beef products will be adulterated.

Some will be plant-based, while others will be based on tissue cells grown on a lattice. Mosa Meat, for example, grows their meat after harvesting a small number of cells from livestock “who are then returned, almost unscathed, to their fields.”15 A single tissue sample is said to be able to yield 80,000 quarter-pound hamburgers.

Yesterday’s Science Fiction May Become Tomorrow’s Reality
Food inventors are even working on cultured meat from human cells, bringing to mind the 1973 dystopian science fiction film “Soylent Green.” The movie takes place in New York in 2022. The Earth is severely overpopulated, and for sustenance, people are given rations of water and Soylent Green, which supposedly is a high-protein food made from plankton.

In the end, you discover in this futuristic nightmare fantasy of controlling big corporations, that the high-protein drink is actually made from people. Now, in the year 2022, scientists are working on lab-grown “meat” made from human cells that are harvested from the inside of human cheeks.16 As reported by Tech Times in November 2020:17

“A new ‘DIY meal kit’ that can be used to grow steaks that are made mostly from human cells ... Called ‘Ouroboros Steak,’ this is named right after the circular symbol of a snake known for eating itself tail-first. This hypothetical kit would later on come with everything that one person would need in order to use their own cells to grow miniature human meat steaks …”

These kits are not yet commercially available, but it begs the question of what possesses someone to think that eating a lump of meat made from your own body could be a viable idea? The question must also be raised about whether this is cannibalism.

Those defending the concept claim that since you're eating your own body, it's not cannibalism. However, if it ever becomes commercially available, what's to prevent someone from growing meat from other people's cells — and selling it? And the ick factor aside, how could this impact the spread of disease? For example, tribal cannibalism in Papua, New Guinea,18 led to a prion disease, which nearly wiped out a tribe of people.

In many villages, after an individual died, the villagers would cook and consume the body in an act of grief. Scientists who studied the tribe believe that one person developed a sporadic incident of Crutchfield-Jakob disease, also known as mad cow disease. Eating the neurological tissue then spread the disease throughout the tribe.

How Will FDA’s Decision Impact Public Health?
While much attention is placed on taste — making products that, taste-wise, mimic real beef — few if any are talking about the proverbial elephant in the room, which is the health impacts of fake beef.

Tissue growth inside an animal occurs when the blood supply delivers appropriate nutrients to produce healthy muscle growth. This requires that the animal is fed a whole and balanced diet, from which the body extracts the necessary nutrients in an appropriate amount to feed the cells.

The human body then extracts the nutrients found in regeneratively and biodynamically pastured meat. However, as science has demonstrated in the last two decades, growing cells on sugar causes growth, but will not yield health. The sheer ability to grow lab-cultured meat does not indicate that the end product will have any health benefit to the end consumer.

One primary problem I foresee is the fact that plant-based fake meat contains excess amounts of omega-6 fat in the form of linoleic acid (LA). This, I believe, is one of the most significant contributors to ill health and chronic disease, as excessive LA leads to severe mitochondrial dysfunction, decreased NAD+ levels, obesity, insulin resistance and a radical decrease in the ability to generate energy.

The genetic engineering used to produce the flavor and texture of real meat does not reproduce healthy fatty acid composition because the substrate is canola and sunflower oils as the primary sources of fat. The sunflower oil used in both Impossible Burgers and Beyond Meats is 68% LA,19 which is an extraordinarily high amount.

It is dangerous because LA is susceptible to oxidation and causes oxidation byproducts called OXLAMs (oxidative linoleic acid metabolites). These byproducts devastate your DNA, protein, mitochondria and cellular membranes. This means that fake meat is failing all measures of sustainability and health.

Facing an Uncertain Future
I’ve often stated that if every American decided to purchase humanely raised organic beef, the CAFO system and the ultra-processed and patented fake meat industry would collapse overnight. With the nationwide ban on real meat racing toward us — 2024 is only two short years away — the window of opportunity for change is rapidly closing.

For now, however, sourcing your foods from a local farmer is still one of your best bets to ensure you're getting wholesome food, and I would encourage you to do so while you still can. The following organizations can help you locate farm-fresh foods in your local area:

1.Local Harvest — This website will help you find farmers markets, family farms, and other sources of sustainably grown food in your area where you can buy produce, grass-fed meats, and many other goodies.

2.Farmers Markets — A national listing of farmers markets.

3.Eat Well Guide: Wholesome Food from Healthy Animals — The Eat Well Guide is a free online directory of sustainably raised meat, poultry, dairy and eggs from farms, stores, restaurants, inns and hotels, and online outlets in the United States and Canada.

4.Community Involved in Sustaining Agriculture (CISA) — CISA is dedicated to sustaining agriculture and promoting the products of small farms.

NOTICE

This is an April Fool’s article and the FDA ban on real meat is a fictional scenario. A primary reason why we post April Fool’s articles is to act as warnings. We want to wake people up to see what could happen if actions aren’t taken to protect and preserve freedom.

Over the years, many of our April Fool’s “jokes” have come true, including our fictional prediction of adult vaccine mandates and internment camps. This isn’t a coincidence. This is planned, and you can see it happening around you. The future of your personal and medical freedoms has not yet been decided. The ending will depend on you."

" STORY AT-A-GLANCE
The idea that pathogens will jump species and kill humans is a useful scare tactic, and it’s now being pushed like never before under One Health — a global agenda that will allow unelected bureaucrats at the World Health Organization to centralize power and make decisions relating to diet, agriculture and livestock farming, environmental pollution, movement of populations, health care and much more, for the entire world
A report from Harvard Law School and New York University predicts the next pandemic is likely to emerge from the U.S. meat supply — or the fur trade, or a petting zoo, or from pets.
It reviews all the different areas of life and commerce that involve animal and human contact and the subsequent hypothetical zoonotic transmission chains.
One Health documents are repeatedly referenced in this report
Incontrovertible evidence has emerged showing that the scientists who wrote “Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2” intentionally misled the public.
In “Proximal Origin,” the authors insisted natural evolution was the most likely scenario, but in private, they thought a lab leak was the most likely origin
Correspondence shows the conspiracy to misdirect the public was driven by obedience to higher-ups within the U.S. and UK governments, including, potentially, the intelligence community
Based on the evidence now in the public domain showing that the authors of “Proximal Origin” did not believe their published conclusions, Biosafety Now! has launched a petition calling on Nature Medicine to retract the paper

The same people who went out of their way to convince us that SARS-CoV-2 emerged through natural evolution in the wild were privately saying they were convinced it came from a lab.

Now, were SARS-CoV-2 to be publicly acknowledged to be a genetically engineered lab-escape, the obvious conclusion would be that we need to shut down much of the gain-of-function research that led to its creation. Needless to say, that would be a significant setback for the biosecurity agenda, which needs pandemics to justify the centralization of power and decision-making.

Zoonotic Transmission Is Not the Threat It’s Made Out To Be
The fact of the matter is, zoonotic transmission is extremely rare, and most if not all global pandemics with lethal outcomes can be traced back to lab experiments. As just one example, USA Today1 recently reiterated the debunked claim that the 2013 Ebola outbreak in West Africa was caused by infected bush meat. (Another widely circulated hypothesis is that it emerged from infected bats.)

However, as detailed in “Turns Out, Ebola Likely Leaked From a Lab as Well,” there’s compelling evidence linking that outbreak to a U.S.-run research laboratory in Kenema, Sierra Leone. And, curiously, many of the same individuals, companies and organizations involved in the Ebola epidemic have also been linked to the alleged creation of SARS-CoV-2.

The idea that pathogens will jump species and kill humans is a useful scare tactic, however, and it’s now being pushed like never before under One Health — a global agenda that will allow unelected bureaucrats at the World Health Organization to centralize power and make decisions relating to diet, agriculture and livestock farming, environmental pollution, movement of populations, health care and much more, for the entire world.

Report Predicts Next Pandemic May Come From Meat
To that end, a report2 from the Brooks McCormick Jr. Animal Law & Policy Program at Harvard Law School and the Center for Environmental & Animal Protection at New York University now predicts that the next pandemic is likely to emerge from the U.S. meat supply — or the fur trade, or a petting zoo, or from pets.

It basically reviews all the different areas of life and commerce that involve animal and human contact, however brief or rare, and the subsequent hypothetical zoonotic transmission chains. Not surprisingly, One Health documents are repeatedly referenced in this report.

Overall, the One Health agenda calls for minimizing or eliminating certain animal-human contact, sterilizing areas where animals are kept or butchered, and/or increasing the use of antibiotics and vaccines in animals across the board. It also calls for massively increased biosurveillance and testing.

In contrast, the report in question primarily focuses on legislative and regulatory actions to curtail zoonotic disease, including the potential banning of certain animal practices that “present great risk but relatively little value, economic or otherwise.”

Will the warnings in this report be used to justify the transition to fake meat? It certainly wouldn’t surprise me. The fake meat industry wants you to believe that their cell-based lab-concoctions are the answer to today's environmental woes, and that includes the threat of zoonotic disease transmission, as lab-grown meat is grown in highly hygienic and sterile (supposedly) conditions.3

Basically, the One Health narrative is that the natural environment poses countless risks to human health and must therefore be controlled. Meanwhile, it’s mankind’s efforts to control and replace nature in the first place that is causing most of the problems.The ‘Proximal Origin’ Scandal
While the One Health narrative is that pandemics are caused by animals, there’s little doubt that the next pandemic will come from a lab, just like most previous pandemics, including COVID-19. Over the past several months, more and more evidence has emerged showing that the scientists who wrote “Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2”4 intentionally misled the public.

“Proximal Origin,” which became the most-cited paper (a Letter to the Editor mischaracterized everywhere as a serious scientific review), claimed SARS-CoV-2 emerged through natural evolution and spread via a wet market in Wuhan, China, and that there was no evidence to suggest genetic engineering or a lab origin.

Private communications, however, reveal they suspected the virus had leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) and had been genetically engineered to infect humans.

Mounting evidence also suggests this act of misdirection (to put it diplomatically) was done at the behest of Dr. Anthony Fauci (then-director of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, NIAID), Dr. Francis Collins (then-director of the National Institutes of Health, NIH) and Sir. Jeremy Farrar (then-head of the Wellcome Trust).

Correspondence shows the conspiracy to misdirect the public was driven by obedience to higher-ups within the U.S. and UK governments, including, potentially, the intelligence community.
As noted in a July 20, 2023, Public Substack article by independent journalists Alex Gutentag, Leighton Woodhouse and Michael Shellenberger:5

“The documents ... show [Kristian] Andersen and his co-authors, Andrew Rambaut, Edward C. Holmes, and Robert F. Garry, conspiring — by which we mean they made secret plans to engage in deceptive and unethical behavior and — to spread disinformation.

Their conspiracy included coordinating with their ‘higher-ups’ in the U.S. and UK governments to deceive journalists ... We ... today ... release the full cache of Slack messages and emails covering the discussions between Andersen et al. as they wrote their influential ‘Proximal Origin’ paper, which Anthony Fauci and others in the U.S. government used to dismiss the lab leak hypothesis.”

While Fauci’s role in the creation of this paper has garnered the most attention, a more central culprit in this coverup may actually be Farrar — and he’s now the chief scientist for the WHO, a fact that hardly inspires confidence in the WHO’s future adherence to scientific truth and fact. The email exchange below between Andersen and Farrar (with other authors cc’d) suggests Farrar was a key decision-maker.



Proof of a Conspiracy
A 140-page PDF containing the “Proximal Origin” author’s Slack messages and a 163-page PDF of emails can be downloaded from the Public article,6 in which Gutentag, Woodhouse and Shellenberger go on to highlight some of the takeaways from this correspondence.

For starters, in “Proximal Origin,” the authors insisted natural evolution was the most likely scenario, but in private, they thought a lab leak was the most likely origin.

In “Proximal Origin” they claimed “the evidence shows that SARS-CoV-2 is not a purposefully manipulated virus” and that “we do not believe that any type of laboratory-based scenario is plausible.” Behind the scenes, however, Andersen wrote:

“I think the main thing still in my mind is that the lab escape version of this is so friggin’ likely to have happened because they were already doing this type of work and the molecular data is fully consistent with that scenario.”

Andersen also stated that “The main issue is that accidental escape is in fact highly likely — it's not some fringe theory.” Farrar and the other authors expressed similar views:7

February 2, 2020, Dr. Robert Garry wrote, “I really can’t think of a plausible natural scenario ... I just can’t figure out how this gets accomplished in nature ... Of course, in the lab it would be easy ...”
February 2, 2020, Dr. Michael Farzan wrote he was “bothered by the furin site” and had “a hard time explain[ing] that as an event outside the lab ... I am 70:30 or 60:40 [lab].”
February 2, 2020, Dr. Andrew Rambaut wrote, “From a (natural) evolutionary point of view the only thing here that strikes me as unusual is the furin cleavage site.”
February 4, 2020, Dr. Edward Holmes indicated that he was “60-40 lab,” and Farrar wrote, “I am 50-50 [lab].”
Holmes also commented: “No way selection could occur in the market. Too low a density of mammals: just small groups of 3-4 in cases,” and Garry wrote:8

“Transmitting a bat virus-like RatG13 in HeLa cells and then asking your graduate student to insert a furin site ... would get you there. It's not crackpot to suggest this could have happened given the Gain of Function research we know is happening ...

I'm thinking mostly about the PRRA to generate the furin site. Relatively easy to drop 12 bases in. The proline is the hang-up — why add that? Makes me think the cell culture passage scenario is possible/probably assuming this has in fact been observed before by Farzan and Fouchier.”

The following graphic, created by @RAEMKA1 and reposted by KanekoaTheGreat on Twitter summarizes the scientific consensus among the “Proximal Origin” authors:



Truth Took Backseat to Self-Preservation
Indeed, Andersen called Fauci February 1, 2020, specifically because he was concerned that the virus showed signs of being engineered. Immediately after that phone call, Fauci contacted Farrar and raised the possibility of taking the concern to the FBI in the U.S. and MI5 in the UK.

Instead, Farrar organized a conference call that led to the creation of “Proximal Origin.”9 From the emails, we know that the genetic engineering aspect of SARS-CoV-2 was discussed. However, concerns about harm to science apparently weighed heavier. After the call, Ron Fouchier wrote:10

“An accusation that nCoV-2019 might have been engineered and released into the environment by humans (accidental or intentional) would need to be supported by strong data, beyond reasonable doubt.

It is good that this possibility was discussed in detail with a team of experts. However, further debate about such accusations would unnecessarily distract top researchers from their active duties and do unnecessary harm to science in general and science in China in particular.”

In a February 9, 2020, email, Christian Drosten also confirmed that the group had been “convened to challenge a certain theory,” and if possible, “drop” or eliminate that theory (i.e., the lab leak theory) from the public and scientific conversation. As recently as the day before, February 8, Andersen had made a case for keeping the possibility of a lab leak open, stating:11

“Our main work over the last couple of weeks has been focused on trying to disprove any type of lab theory, but we are at a crossroad where the scientific evidence isn't conclusive enough to say that we have high confidence in any of the three main theories considered.”

Authors Never Believed in the Pangolin Theory
In “Proximal Origin,” the authors went on to blame pangolins as an intermediate host between bats and humans, but in private, they remained unconvinced. The conclusion in “Proximal Origin” reads:12

“The presence in pangolins of an RBD [receptor binding domain] very similar to that of SARS-CoV-2 means that we can infer this was also probably in the virus that jumped to humans.”

However, shortly before the “Proximal Origin” pre-print was published, Andersen wrote: “For all I know, people could have infected the pangolin, not the other way,” and the day after the pre-print, he commented: “Clearly none of these pangolin sequences was the source though.”

Authors Thought Lab Leak Was Likely Months After Publication
The authors also clearly thought a lab leak was possible months after publishing the “Proximal Origin” paper. In mid-April 2020, a month after the paper was officially published and two months after the preprint was posted, Andersen wrote to his coauthors:

“I’m still not fully convinced that no culture was involved ... are we absolutely certain that no culture could have been involved? What concerns me here are some of the comments by Shi in the SciAm article (‘I had to check the lab’ etc) and the fact that the furin site is being messed with in vitro ...

Finally, the paper that was shared with us showing a very similar phenomenon (exactly 12 bp insertion) in other CoV’s has me concerned ... We also can't fully rule out engineering (for basic research).”

In fact, the authors — like so many other independent scientists, researchers and journalists — suspected Shi Zhengli’s work at the WIV could have produced SARS-CoV-2. As reported by Public:13

“Andersen discussed some of her papers in early February and noted his concerns about gain-of-function experiments on MERS and SARS viruses. In mid-April he noted that Shi’s work was ‘the main reason I have been so concerned about the ‘culture’ scenario.’

Cell culturing is a method through which viruses can be passed multiple times through cells in order to render them more infectious and is exactly the kind of ‘laboratory-based scenario’ the authors ruled out in their paper.”

Conspiracy Driven by Obedience to Higher-Ups
Finally, the correspondence shows that the conspiracy to misdirect, if not outright deceive, the public was driven by obedience to higher-ups within the U.S. and UK governments, including Farrar, Fauci and Collins, but also, potentially, other unnamed individuals within various government agencies and/or the intelligence community.

While Andersen has publicly denied that Fauci had any involvement in the publication, in an email to the journal Nature, Andersen specified that the paper had been “prompted” by Fauci, Collins and Farrar.14 If you want to take a deeper dive into how the “Proximal Origin” paper was created, check out U.S. Right to Know’s timeline.15

Scientists Call for Retraction of ‘Proximal Origin’
Based on all the evidence now in the public domain showing that the authors of “Proximal Origin” did not believe their published conclusions, Biosafety Now! has launched a petition16 calling on Nature Medicine to retract the paper. As noted by Biosafety Now!:

“Email messages and direct messages via the messaging program Slack among authors of the paper obtained under FOIA or by the U.S. Congress and publicly released in full in July 2023 ... show, incontrovertibly, that the authors did not believe the conclusions of the paper at the time the paper was written, at the time the paper was submitted for publication, and at the time the paper was published.

They thus show that the paper was, and is, the product of scientific fraud and scientific misconduct. It is imperative that this clearly fraudulent and clearly damaging paper be removed from the scientific literature.” "

Vandana Shiva: Bill Gates and Silicon Valley Behind Push for ‘Farming Without Farmers, Food Without Farms’
08/02/23
By Brenda Baletti, Ph.D.
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/d...tm_id=20230802

"On the latest episode of Russell Brand’s “Stay Free,” scholar, environmental activist and food sovereignty advocate Vandana Shiva, Ph.D., discussed food fascism, the power of “philanthropy,” digital enslavement and how people can free themselves from this system.

Human beings cannot have a relationship with nature, land and one another, it seems increasingly, without the intercedence of this corporate power,” comedian and political commentator Russell Brand told scholar and environmental activist Vandana Shiva, Ph.D., on the latest episode of his “Stay Free” podcast.

Brand asked Shiva, a food sovereignty and environmental activist, to explain how this corporate takeover of nature happened.

Shiva said the privatization of land and resources under colonialism was the first step in transforming nature into “either a mine or a dump.”

Today, she said, privatization has become so entrenched that mega-corporation Cargill can own every chicken, chicken production facility, and every input needed to raise chickens, and then dump all of its waste into public rivers.

The situation we face today could not have happened, she said, without the criminalization of farmers — for which she held media organizations like The Guardian responsible because they attack farmers instead of the corporations.

“If the drivers are the corporations,” she said, “you have to have the guts to bite the corporations. You don’t target the victims. The farmers are victims of this system.”

Who are the real ‘food fascists’?

Brand asked Shiva why the global uprising of farmers — from Sri Lanka and India to Germany, England and the Netherlands — against the globalization of agriculture had come to be cast as a right-wing idea by the press.

Shiva said Mussolini himself defined fascism as “the convergence of economic and political power.” “Food fascism,” she said, “is the recent control over our food systems by giant corporations and the billionaires.”

Under colonialism, the British controlled the land, she said, but they didn’t control the food. The advent of agricultural industrialization, the green revolution and globalization made it possible for corporations to take control of food.

The call for “food sovereignty,” she said, “came as the call as opposite to the food dictatorship and food fascism.”

Now, she said, those people want to complete the separation of people from the land that began with colonialism.

Today, they want “farming without farmers.”

Being able to plant a seed, input love, knowledge and sun and produce food, “is the only truly independent production system and it’s that freedom they want to attack,” Shiva said, because they are threatened by it.

So they discredit farmers by calling them “fascists” and “right wing.”

“And anybody who facilitates that is essentially doing the work of these globalists,” she said, “they’re the fascists.”

How ‘philanthropy’ buys control

Today, people who talk about the disproportionate power and influence that billionaires like Bill Gates have over global agriculture and health are regarded as “conspiracy theorists,” Brand said.

He asked Shiva to explain Gates’ rise to power in plain language and with facts.

Shiva said people like Gates became wealthy through neoliberal trade liberalization, where trade in information, in the software and other forms of data Gates produced, went completely untaxed.

Then, she said, they used that money “philanthropically” to gain control of other sectors.

By donating massive sums of money to the global seed bank, to the World Health Organization and to media organizations such as The Guardian and the BBC, Gates and other billionaires took control of those institutions.

It even gives them the power to control governments, she said, who have been made desperate for money through indebtedness.

Gates and Silicon Valley, she said, “are very big players in the fake food future of farming without farmers, food without farms.” And they get journalists such as The Guardian’s George Monbiot to promote it.

Chasing enslavement

Shiva said this vision is built on “an imagined promise of an imagined future that we are never gonna arrive at. Because when you get there, you’ll find it doesn’t belong to you. It belongs to them.”

The systems that support their vision of the future appear to offer us convenience, but in reality, she said, maintaining them takes all of our time.

Many indigenous people, she said, still have a lot of time to enjoy life “because they’re not chasing enslavement through consumption.”

Shiva wondered why people would want a “smart home,” where, for example, “the fridge will tell you your milk is getting old. How dumb are we getting that we can’t open the door of our fridge and know our milk is getting old?”

“All that is surveillance data,” she said.

And processing that data takes big servers. “The tiny bits of enslavement we are getting into is [producing] 4% of greenhouse gases, which is more than the aviation sector,” she said.

She added:

“So, not only is it a very foolish kind of slavery, it’s a huge ecological footprint on the planet. Yes. And we can’t afford it. So we have to learn to walk lightly.”

Data is the new oil

Brand said he was alarmed at the increasing pace of “desacralization” where people prioritize materialism over spirituality and lose control over their lives. He asked Shiva how she thought censorship, the inhibition of free speech and the ability of the media to shut down dialogue, fed into this process.

Shiva said it was part of “a system of total control,” that makes that control highly profitable.

What’s new in this system according to Shoshana Zuboff’s “The Age of Surveillance Capitalism” is that today, human beings themselves have been turned into raw material whose data can be extracted.

“That is the capital of today. Big data is the new oil, and then it’s used to manipulate us,” she said, adding “Any system that allows you the awareness of your real freedom must be censored.”

The strange thing, Brand said, is that this system of technological domination was sold to people as a way of empowering them and giving them their freedom.

Technology should be a tool, she said, but it “has been elevated to a god” and those opposed to that transformation are discounted, through Orwellian doublespeak, as “right wing.”

But, Shiva said, the last few years have shown there are three things people cannot give up:

“First, your ability to know and distinguish between truth and untruth. … And not allow post-truth to be projected as truth and the truth speakers to be projected as conspirators.

“The second is our ability to relate to each other without the intervention of a surveillance state and surveillance corporation.

“And third, because food is what makes us, it becomes our blood, ourselves, our brain.”

In other words, Brand said:

“Speak freely. Tell the truth. Communicate freely. Grow your own food. Don’t eat things grown in labs. Don’t eat bugs. And don’t listen to people who want to promote it.”

RFK Jr. Hosts Food and Farming Policy Roundtable, Criticizes ‘Corrupt System of Producing Poison and Pretending It’s Food.’
08/07/23
By Brenda Baletti, Ph.D.
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/d...tm_id=20230807

"In a roundtable discussion, “Revitalizing Our Food, Farms and Soil,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Children’s Health Defense chairman on leave, brought together regenerative farmers from across the U.S. to discuss what’s wrong with U.S. farm policy and how to fix it.

Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. last week hosted a roundtable discussion on farming and food with regenerative farmers dedicated to building an alternative farm model for the U.S.

More than 6,000 viewers watched live as Ben Dobson, Gail Fuller, Will Harris, Reginaldo Haslett-Marroquin, Kerry Hoffschneider, John Kempf, Bob Quinn, Wayne Swanson and Judith McGeary shared their visions for how to revitalize American farming with Kennedy, founder and chairman on leave from Children’s Health Defense (CHD).

Kennedy kicked off the conversation, describing his experience litigating against Big Ag companies, and in the process, learning how corporations and politicians worked together to consolidate the industry.

By passing legislation that protects factory farms, manipulating subsidy programs and forming key partnerships with industrial farmers, companies like Smithfield came to dominate the pork and chicken industries and turned the remaining family farmers into “indentured servants on their own land,” Kennedy said.

Smithfield’s low prices compelled the entire industry to switch to the same model.

Kennedy said his experience fighting Big Ag led him to seek out “the other end of the spectrum” with people “creating real food and healthy food and wholesome communities that all of us can be proud of.”

Kennedy listened, took notes and asked questions while organic food activist and filmmaker Elizabeth Kucinich moderated the panel. Each farmer shared the challenges, successes and lessons from their work “to rebuild the critical life system of our American landscape and the communities in it.”

‘What do you expect when industry writes the farm bill?’

Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador recently banned genetically modified (GMO) corn in Mexican tortillas, an action that could cut GMO corn imports to Mexico from the U.S. and create a demand for non-GMO corn.

But instead of supporting the switch to non-GMO agriculture, the Biden administration’s U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is taking Mexico to trade court, said Ben Dobson of Hudson Carbon in Hudson Valley, New York, putting the brakes on a market that could support U.S. farmers seeking to break dependence on GMO crops.

Different systems of compensation for farmers, Montana organic grain farmer Bob Quinn said, would be key to building a different agricultural system. The current system rewards high yields rather than cultivation of the healthy environments that make farms prosper.

Quinn said U.S. grain production has two goals — higher yield for farmers and higher-yield wheat needed by bakers. So farmers transitioned to shorter, higher-yielding, glyphosate-treated, gluten-heavy wheat — and that combination is hard for the body to process, often resulting in allergies and other diseases.

A transition to organic heritage grains could address those allergies, he said.

“I’ve come to the conclusion that farmers should be paid for nutrients produced per acre rather than pounds per acre,” Quinn said.

Reginaldo Haslett-Marroquin, a Guatemalan agronomist and owner-founder of Minnesota-based Regeneration Farms, said the government institutions and corporations that control the food system are invested in a model that “has resulted in a systemically and verifiable and quantifiable way of killing the planet in the name of food.”

“Food is sacred,” Haslett-Marroquin said. “The act of eating is a spiritual act and food sharing and ensuring everyone has it must be the end result of a successful agriculture system.”

On his farm, he said they found ways to use modern scientific advances in technology “so that we can engage the natural design and the most efficient ways of working with the land.”

Gail Fuller, a Kansas family farmer, provided more specifics about the policies that devastate farmers and the land.

Crop insurance, for example, he said incentivizes bad management. Tillage and pesticides are considered “best management practices,” so farmers using alternative practices are at greater risk.

“But what do you expect,” he asked, “when industry writes the farm bill?”

One in four children in Kansas is food-insecure, he said. The food they do have is actually “low nutrient quality, highly toxic, food-like substances.”

Fuller advocated for ending the monopolies that control agriculture, ending the silencing of scientists, and ending subsidies for destructive farm practices and for conservation programs that go nowhere.

He said policymakers need to grapple with the questions, “Have we improved food? Have we improved health? Have we improved water? … Have we improved farmer welfare and quality of life?”Today’s farmers being ‘farmed by agribusiness’

Fourth-generation farmer Will Harris of White Oak Pastures in Georgia successfully transitioned his farm from an industrial to a regenerative farm that now employs 160 people.

He did this by embracing three principles — “regenerative soil management, compassionate animal welfare and the re-enrichment of their impoverished rural community,” he said, providing a robust model for other farms.

Kerry Hoffschneider, speaking as a Nebraskan farmer and part of the Graze Master Group, said Nebraska lacks farms like Harris’. The region faces the problem of fewer farms and ranches employing fewer people.

Problems of soil depletion and water pollution pose a major financial barrier to the farm growth necessary for the transformation of impoverished rural communities, she said, many of which lost the last of their resources during the 1980s farm crisis.

John Kempf, who comes from an Amish farming tradition, said that after transitioning from farming with pesticides to farming without them, he learned that, like people, plants have an immune system.

“But in order for that immune system to function,” he said, “it needs to be supported with nutritional integrity and microbiome integrity” that allows plants to resist diseases and insects.

Kempf said that the agricultural paradigm today assumes that agriculture is “inherently extractive” — removing nutrients and depleting soils. But, he said, that is only true of the industrial system.

Agriculture can be managed to regenerate soil health and grow plants with robust immune systems that transfer that immunity to the people and animals that consume them, he said. “And all of a sudden we can have a legitimate conversation about growing food as medicine.”

But that is nearly impossible, he said because farmers today are “being farmed by agribusiness.”

“If we really want to regenerate landscapes and regenerate agriculture, the fundamental piece that needs to be regenerated is … the capacity for stewardship,” he said. “We need more people who care deeply for the land on the landscape. We don’t have enough right now.”

‘Food as food’ — not as a commodity

Wayne Swanson, owner of Swanson Family Farm and consultant for small farms, talked about the importance of growing localized farm economies and making small farms economically viable.

He said the key to this project was educating the public to value farming that isn’t necessarily high-yielding or aesthetically beautiful, but rather values relationships and environmental and community health.

Judith McGeary, Texas farmer, attorney, and founder of Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance, explained the regulatory framework for farming in the U.S. supports only large-scale extractive agriculture, giving small and regenerative farms very little leeway to build a different system.

(Technical difficulties cut off McGreary’s presentation.)

Dobson said the farmers at the roundtable represented “food as food” and not as a commodity.

He said a conversation about how to move on from agro-industrial techniques, chemical inputs and genetically modified crops to “rebuild the critical life system of our American landscape” must include talking about communities, farms and the ecosystems they sit in — and also international relationships.

Because each farmer had only a few minutes to speak in the hour-long event, Kennedy suggested meeting again in the future, with more time to develop proposals for transitioning U.S. farms to a system that prioritizes wholesome, nutritious foods.

He said:

“The USDA was set up to protect small farmers and to make sure that we have a wholesome food supply, and instead it’s become a sock puppet of the chemical and Big Ag industries and industrial agriculture.

“And it’s doing the exact inverse of what it was designed to do. It’s giving us poison instead of food and we’re the sickest country in the world.

“There’s all these perverse incentives that we need to unravel. …

“The food supply is controlled by these big corporate interests, either outright-controlled through ownership of the property, or effectively controlled through … inputs and the subsidy systems that lock everybody into this corrupt system of producing poison and pretending it’s food.”

Terrifying.
How do we avoid all of this?
Organic labeled food?
The elite and their cronies in the know have to have an alternative.
I remember Kevin Trudeau in his book that he went to prison for said simply this.
The elite have decided to depopulate the masses using poisoned food and the pharma companies and if you wished to avoid their intent you should eat only organic food.

Kind of tough to go to a farmers market for everything.
As such can we trust the FDA organic label?

To answer your questions I will tell something that happen to me but it actually will happen to anyone doing the same thing..
I used to have a food delivery/take away small business many moons ago, at some point I wanted to have frozen food and for that I need a special license, the idea was to sell the frozen with convenience shops in gas stations, mon&pop shops, etc.. My food was of great quality, we use only organic veggies, and the meat was very selective like only fresh and from known source (not from supermarket), we never used artificial colors, artificial seasoning, preservatives, additives or anything actually.. our curries we made ourselves with fresh spices/onions/garlic/turmeric/etc.. Ok.. when it came to pack & freeze for business I was told that I have to add preservatives, additives, INS (many codes), increase sodium and a few other things in order to get certified to be in this market of frozen food... I told them I was working with health food and everything he asked me was a defeat and in that case I would better close my business instead of lying to people that my food was health when in fact it is not! Indeed I closed my business a few months later, the end of story.

How do we avoid all of this?

growing your own food and boycotting the industrialized fake food.

Organic labeled food?

What a joke, there is no such a thing in the industry. period.

As such can we trust the FDA organic label?

they are even worse, my issue with frozen food happened at a provincial level in Portugal, I can't even imagine at a Federal level. There was some big shark in the food industry, someone asked him if he eats regularly the food he sells, he said no, had never eaten anything, wondering why? The wealth knows very well it is poison.

There is no such a thing issued by authorities as safe label, 100% organic, blablabla.. these are ALL marketing words to captivate the attention and deceive the consumer into buying it, that is all it is. Legal information about the ingredients should be all specified in the package, but many are not there and if they are how many people know that a specific INS is to control food acidity, INS 133 for example is a synthetic food color and it is very controversial to use now, E122 causes allergies (it worse asthma condition), it is also a synthetic food additive used in so many things like flavoured yogurts, sauces, jams, jellies, soups (the ones in packages or canned), and so on.

Also be careful with the so fancy and nice KETO, you may be getting heavy metals through the many powders they have. One famous almond power used in Keto food didn't pass the heavy metal tests.

If one want to be 100% safe about food, there is only 1 way, and it is planting your own, doing that way you don't have to trust anyone, also keep your own seed bank

I know now you speak the truth.
I will add if you can't grow everything yourself go to farmers markets.
Talk to these people.
You will find many people of like mind who genuinely don't vaccinate their animals or use pesticides.
Develop relationships.
I have folks I visit independently at their farm.
Indeed nothing mass produced can be trusted.
