Be Careful with Those Christmas Receipts

Hope you got all your Christmas shopping done. The stores are still open if you need to make any last-minute purchases. I’ll probably head out later to pick up a few more items myself.

But there’s something serious I want to talk to you about today. It’s more important than ever because of all the receipts you’re probably collecting this time of year.

Every receipt you get could be toxic. And the toxins on your receipts could be rubbing off onto the bills in your wallet. I’m talking about the chemical bisphenol A (BPA).

Suffering Succotash

I like the word “succotash.” Not because I like to eat it, or even because the cartoon cat Sylvester still cracks me up every time he lisps, “Thufferin’ thuccotash!”

I like it because not only is it a great-sounding word, it’s also a great example of how so-called “nutritionists” have rewritten history. And how backward modern “diet” advice is.

Natural’s Dirty Little Secrets

“Natural flavors” can perversely “mean” any chemical approved for use in food.

The FDA makes manufacturers declare if a flavoring has any of the eight major food allergens – milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, wheat, peanuts and soybeans.

More Fake Food – Don’t Fall for the Flaxseed Lie

You’ve probably heard of flaxseed as a “superfood” … a cure-all for everything from cancer to high cholesterol. Flaxseeds are put in everything from cereal and margarine to egg-replacement products today.

Yet flaxseed is not a time-tested food product. It’s not something we evolved with, so there’s no way of telling how eating it will affect humans in the long run.

My Grapefruit Prescription

You may have seen this in the news, or even heard it from your doctor: Avoid eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice when you’re taking certain prescription drugs. But you might want to give up those prescription drugs before you give up grapefruit.

Why I’ll Never Get a Flu Shot

I’m 54 years old, and I’ve never gotten a flu shot. Here’s why. The effectiveness of the flu vaccine is exaggerated. The strains for the vaccine are selected a year in advance. That’s important for you to know because researchers guess on what strain will prevail each flu season. They have no other way of knowing. And if they guess wrong, the vaccine is useless.

The Detoxifier Found in Every Emergency Room

I want to tell you about something that could one day save your life. I recommend you keep some in your medicine cabinet at all times. Hospitals consider this so effective they carry it in emergency rooms to treat poison victims. Taken orally it has the ability to extract and neutralize many more times its [...]
