Nothing is good for us anymore, all of our food has hidden toxins. Consumers need to stand up and fight back. We allow this out of ignorance.

I would like to know why running tap water through a reverse osmosis system does not make it "vastly superior". Reverse Osmosis can turn polluted sea water into potable water, so I cannot imagine why people are so upset over Coca Cola calling their water "purified". Personally I don't see anything on their label that is misleading at all. Why the big bruhaha? What do all these comments mean? Are you suggesting that reverse osmosis cannot purify tap water? If so, where is your evidence? By implying that purified tap water is no different than tap water itself is to merely display your ignorance of the RO system. I drink RO water because the tap water in my area contains arsenic at a level that is borderline with the maximum allowed by law. Now I CAN see voting the Coca Cola company one of the worst by pushing high fructose corn syrup products off on our youth, but purified water? Someone has wandered down the wrong path!

Poland Spring water is owned by Nestle, unfortunately, as other some other bottled waters. Nestle promotes baby formula in third world countries, killing babies by infection and starvation. Clean water and enough money to buy formula not available. Free samples run out when mothers' milk has dried up. Same principle as drug dealers' " the first ones' free" but even more immoral. Nestle promotes it as healthy for the baby.

I think it is a sick thing that every ailment in America is treated with a pill.

I have acquaintances (they cant be friends, since they think my healthier than most lifestyle is "sick!") that are in their 40's and 50's that take on average seven (7) different medications every day. EVERY DAY. I have had many of the same ailments and I do not take any medication, never have.

I have had insomnia, on and off, for 20 years, changed my lifestyle according to what was happening in my life and got on with things. I have had restless leg syndrome and got rid of that with lots of Vit C, (tablets and oranges) and chiropractic care. I had skin cancer 22 years ago, refused radiation and chemo and havent had it come back. I go out in the sun, do not use chemical sunscreens and eat a lot of fruit

I am having a problem now with achy joints and chronic sinusitis, and I know I will work through that too.

My own mother takes 18 pills a day, and she is losing her mind. She is only 66. She has been acting senile since she was 55, ironically, that was the same age she was when she started all the medications.

Her doctors think she is "doing well". She was told she NEEDS all the pills, so she disowned me and told anyone who would listen that I was tryhing to kill her by not agreeing with her pills and doctors.

When she was the age I am now, she had massive dental work done, with bridges and fillings. I have five filling.

Coninky-dink?? I think not!.

I'm really surprised that I'm still alive!

Now I'm not allowed to buy raw milk, my council drinking water is loaded with chemicals and stinks and tastes terrible. My veges and fruit are treated with toxic chemicals .... and I'm told this is to benefit my health? My packaged food is devoid of nutrients and is loaded with added chemicals to make it last indefinitely.

My mum used to make our own butter and it only ever lasted 3 days max. How long does your packaged butter last?

I like the comment that: "When you are out of the fresh food section of the supermarket - you are now in the non-food zone!" But these days even the fresh food section is a health hazard!

Now scientists have discovered that if you eat Genetically Modified foods your body creates a new protein and this might last a lifetime and change how your body processes food? "Seeds of Deception" is a real eye opener.

It is election time again - is there a "Our Natural Earth Party" that I can vote for?

To add another product you may be interested in knowing more about: Kangen Water Systems adjust the ph in the water along with all the filtering and cleansing that other water purifiers do. Adjustments to highly acidic water can be useful in sanitizing and cleaning (ie: toxins off your fruits & veggies). Adjustments to higher alkalinity for a balancing effect for your overall health. It does all of this with oxygen in the water. The systems can be costly upon initial purchase ($1800-$4000). In my internet search, I found a company that offers a solution for cancer patients who may be able to get theirs paid for thru their insurance company with a doctor's prescription for the machine. Seems, Japan has been on the forefront of this particular system and has been using it in their hospitals for the last 50 years with success. My local health food store has this machine and charges $1.50 a gallon to fill up your own containers. I love the clean, light taste and feel to Kangen water.

Morningstar reports "Pfizer a high quality name, has crossed the 5-star threshold" for investment quality.

"What Gives It an Edge: According to Morningstar analyst Damien Conover, Pfizer's wide economic moat stems from a robust portfolio of patent-protected drugs and a massive salesforce. Furthermore, Pfizer's enormous cash flows combined with strong scientific know-how afford the firm plenty of opportunities in developing the next generations of drugs.

What the Risks Are: Pfizer faces generic competition, an increasingly stringent Food and Drug Administration"

Did you get the part about MASSIVE SALESFORCE? Do you really think the FDA is becoming a tough guy now? How badly do you want to get big returns on your stock investments?

My Mom just got a COUPON for some prescription drug. BIZARRE.

The world is moving on, I got left behind somewhere.

There seems to be no integrity left in the corporate arena, only the bottom line matters. It's really sad that this country has been reduced to greed and gluttony. No one seems to care about doing the right thing and social responsiblility has been thrown out the window. Now we have a country full of over weight and under nourished people that can't seem to break the cycle and who do they have to turn to? Doctors, pharmaceutical companies?? What a joke! and the The FTC and FDA are not looking out for the health and well being of society they only care about who's paying them off. Coca-Cola, Kellogg's and General Foods are only a few of the guilty....what about Monsanto why is it not inquestion?

Watch "The Corporation", a documentary on the nature of the corporate entity; how it was formed and its traits. According to the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual), the book that our genius white-coated technocrats name a disease with, ascribe most of the fundamental traits of a SOCIOPATH!! to the average corporate entity, which, by the way, has the same rights as a person. Very interesting movie, well worth the watch.

Corparations have way too much power. They are also legally obligated to turn a profit, ( I got this form a tv program that was dicussing the "whine factor" marketing stragity for kids). Since corporations are leagally obligated to show a profit they will go to ANY LENGTH to do so. This country really needs to rethink it's priorities.

I can not believe some of these comments! Spaying? Remove children from their mother's custody? Those are great ideas....... more government interference, that is always a good thing. The best thing we can do is take care of our own children and try to educate others. Everyone has free will and telling people what to do or forcing them to do something is never the correct. Educating people while making degrading commments will not work. Every day I deal with people who think I am crazy for my stand on nutrition, the way I educate my children, and how we run our farm. Calling people names and degrading them will only make things worse and help close their minds to the truth. Peoplke listen to others who are intelligent and rational. Getting rabid about things (even when they are vital) only turns others away. Come on people! Have some diginty and use your brains!

Why isn't Monsanto on this list? They rammed genetically modified organisms (GMOs) into our diet and paid off enough government officials that products using GMOs do not even have to be labeled as such. That is such a horror story, one I fear is akin to Pandora's box. Lest you doubt, read Jeffrey Smith's Seeds of Deception. You WILL start buying organic food after reading that book, since buying organic is the only way to assure that you are not getting GMOs in your diet. And by the way, Monsanto makes a run for it about once a year to get them to change the organic standards so that GMOs may be included in organic food. Last year the vote was a resounding 12-0. Will they start paying off the members of the board who vote on whether or not to include GMOs in organic food?
