Is there Chicken in Chicken Pet Foods?
One of the newest trends of pet food marketing is a tag line something like 'Chicken is the first ingredient'. Sounds good doesn't it? Chicken, first or second on the ingredient list surely means this pet food contains lots of quality meat doesn't it? No wonder this 'chicken' pet food is a little more expensive - it contains more meat. Right? Maybe not.

Will Anyone Speak with Me at the AAFCO Meeting?
It is not looking positive. Thank heavens Dr. Jean Hofve (holistic veterinarian and pet food safety advocate) will be joining me at the AAFCO Meeting next month - without her, it might be no one even speaks to me at the meeting. Incoming AAFCO President Robert Waltz has not agreed to an interview and FDA Official Dr. Dan McChesney has not responded to two requests for interview.

MedicalConspiracies- The Benefits of Hydrogen Peroxide and its Many Uses
The Benefits of Hydrogen Peroxide and its Many Uses
20 Comments Posted by docakilah on December 19, 2011
by Andrea Harper
Hydrogen peroxide is the only germicidal agent composed only of water and oxygen. Like ozone, it kills disease organisms by oxidation! Hydrogen peroxide is considered the world’s safest all natural effective sanitizer. It kills microorganisms by oxidizing them, which can be best described as a controlled burning process. When hydrogen peroxide reacts with organic material it breaks down into oxygen and water.
Whiten Clothes - An Alternative to Beach
Add a cup of Peroxide to white clothes in your laundry to whiten them. Peroxide is great to get rid of blood stains on clothes and carpets. If there is blood on clothing, just pour directly on the spot, let it sit for about a minute, then rub and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.
Health:
Your body makes hydrogen peroxide to fight infection which must be present for our immune system to function correctly. White blood cells are known as Leukocytes. A sub-class of Leukocytes called Neutrophils produce hydrogen peroxide as the first line of defense against toxins, parasites, bacteria, viruses and yeast.
Rejuvenating Detoxifying Bath:
Use about 2 quarts 3% hydrogen peroxide to a tub of warm water. Soak at least 1/2 hour, adding hot water as needed to maintain a comfortable water temperature.
Foot Fungus:
To cure a foot fungus, simply spray a 50/50 mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water on them (especially the toes) every night and let dry.
Douche:
Add 2 capfuls of 3% hydrogen peroxide in warm distilled water once to twice a week to remove even chronic yeast infections.
Colonic or Enema:
For a colonic, add 1 cup (8 ozs.) 3% H202 to 5 gallons warm water. (Do not exceed this amount) For an enema, add 1 tablespoon of 3% H202 to a quart of warm distilled water.
Infections:
Soak any infections or cuts in 3% for five to ten minutes several times a day. Even gangrene that would not heal with any medicine has been healed by soaking in hydrogen peroxide. Put half a bottle of hydrogen peroxide in your bath to help rid boils, fungus or other skin infections.
Bird Mites Infections:
Patients infected by tiny mites report that hydrogen peroxide effectively kills the mites on their skins. They spray it on their skin a couple of times (with a few minutes in between the applications) with amazing results.
Sinus Infections:
A tablespoon of 3% hydrogen peroxide added to 1 cup of non-chlorinated water can be used as a nasal spray. Depending on the degree of sinus involvement, one will have to adjust the amount of peroxide used.
Wound Care:
3% H2O2 is used medically for cleaning wounds, removing dead tissue, and as an oral debriding agent. Peroxide stops slow (small vessel) wound bleeding/oozing, as well.
Some sources recommend soaking infections or cuts for five to ten minutes several times a day. However, washing and rinsing action is sufficient. You shouldn't leave the solution on open tissue for extended periods of time as, like many oxidative antiseptics, hydrogen perioxide causes mild damage to tissue in open wounds. Therefore it is important to use with caution.
Personal Care:
Mouthwash / Tooth Care:
Healing Properties: Take one capful (the little white cap that comes with the bottle) and hold in your mouth for 10 minutes daily, then spit it out. You will not have canker sores and your teeth will be whiter. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot get to a dentist right away, put a capful of 3% hydrogen peroxide into your mouth and hold it for 10 minutes several times a day. The pain will lessen greatly.
Mouthwash: Many people don't realize that hydrogen peroxide makes a very effective and inexpensive mouthwash. Use 3% H202 - add a dash of liquid chlorophyll for flavoring if desired.
Toothpaste: Use baking soda and add enough 3% H202 to make a paste. Or, just dip your brush in 3% H202 and brush. Soak your toothbrush in hydrogen peroxide to keep them free of germs.
Toothbrush: Soaking your toothbrush in hydrogen peroxide will help keep them free of harmul germs.
Tooth Ache: Hydrogen peroxide is not a pain killer; however, as an anti-viral, antibacterial and anti-fungal agent, it is effective at treating the pathogen that is causing the infection. The following is from my own personal experience: My dentist wanted to give me a root canal some time ago as one tooth was inflamed and, in her opinion, would die. I felt some discomfort but told her that I would give it chance to heal. I rinsed with hydrogen peroxide (several times a day) as well ascoconut oil (once a day). The discomfort went away and I have had no further problems with the tooth.
Tooth Whitening: Having used 3% Hydrogen Peroxide as a mouth wash for sometime ago, I am thrilled to note that my teeth have been beautifully and effortlessly whitened. I used to pay so much for professional whitening, those silly strips and uncomfortable trays. Live and learn.
NOTE: Do not swallow any peroxide. When the peroxide rinse is done, be sure to rinse out your mouth with water.
Colonic or Enema:
For a colonic, add 1 cup (8 ozs.) 3% H202 to 5 gallons warm water. (Do not exceed this amount) For an enema, add 1 tablespoon of 3% H202 to a quart of warm distilled water.
Hair Lightening:
Peroxide is a bleaching agent and is used for lightened hair. Dilute 3% hydrogen peroxide with water (50 / 50) and spray the solution on your wet hair after a shower and comb it through. You will not have the peroxide burnt blonde hair like the hair dye packages, but more natural highlights if your hair is a light brown, faddish, or dirty blonde. It also lightens gradually so it's not a drastic change.
Contact Lenses:
Hydrogen peroxide is used as a disinfectant in CIBA Vision's Clear Care no rub contact lens cleaning solution, due to its ability to break down the proteins that build up on the lense from the eye's immune response, resulting in increased comfort for those with sensitive eyes.
Sanitizing / Disinfectant / Cleaning
Straight or Diluted Hydrogen Perioxide:
Clean your counters and table tops with hydrogen peroxide to kill germs and leave a fresh smell. Simply put a little on your dishrag when you wipe, or spray it on the counters. Use hydrogen peroxide to clean glass and mirrors with no smearing.
Keep a spray bottle of 3% (straight) to disinfect the interior of the refrigerator and kids' school lunch boxes.
In the Dishwasher: Add 2 oz. of 3% hydrogen peroxide to your regular washing formula.
Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 mixture of 3% hydrogen peroxide and water and keep it in every bathroom to disinfect without harming your septic system like bleach or most other disinfectants will. After rinsing off your wooden cutting board, pour or spray hydrogen peroxide (and then vinegar) on it to kill salmonella and other bacteria.
I use peroxide to clean my mirrors with, there is no smearing.
Combination of vinegar and hydrogen peroxide make a cheap, effective and non-toxic disinfectant agent and is said to be more effective at killing pathogens than bleach. As it is non-toxic, you can use it to disinfect fruits and vegetables, as well as pet toys, equipment and cages. In tests run at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, pairing Vinegar and Hydrogen Peroxide mists, kills virtually all Salmonella, Shigella, or E. coli bacteria on heavily contaminated food and surfaces.
Directions:
You need TWO spray bottles. DO NOT MIX the solutions together. Put straight vinegar in one and straight hydrogen peroxide in the other spray bottle. NOTE: Light destroys peroxide rather quickly. It's best to leave it in its original bottle and screw in a spray head. DO NOT DILUTE THEM.
Remember for any sanitizer to work properly, the surface has to be clean before you use it.
When you want to sanitize a surface (vegetables, cutting board, counters, sink, cages, toys. toilets, floors, etc.), spray one (it doesn't matter which one you use first) on the surface, then you spray on the other. When they mix, for a brief time the chemical action of the two make a very powerful sanitizer. You can rinse off the surface afterwards, if you want, but the result is non-toxic.
Fortunately it is cheap. BTW, we use it in the bathroom to sanitize the counters, toilets, floors, etc.
Sanitizing Drinking Water
Mold:
Clean with hydrogen peroxide when your house becomes a biohazard after its invaded by toxic mold, such as those with water damage.
Humidifiers/Steamers:
Use 1 pint 3% hydrogen peroxide to 1 gallon of water.
Laundry / Stain Removing:
Stain Remover:
3% Hydrogen Peroxide is the best stain lifter if used fairly soon - although blood stains as old as 2 days have been successfully lifted with Hydrogen Peroxide. Although it will bleach or discolor many fabrics. If a little peroxide is poured onto the stain it will bubble up in the area of the blood, due to a reaction with catalase. After a few minutes the excess liquid can be wiped up with a cloth or paper towel and the stain will be gone.
3% H2O2 must be applied to clothing before blood stains can be accidentally "set" with heated water. Cold water and soap are then used to remove the peroxide treated blood.
Washing/Laundry:
You can also add a cup of hydrogen peroxide instead of bleach to a load of whites in your laundry to whiten them. If there is blood on clothing, pour directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.
Peroxide is a perfect alternate solution to keep those clothes white. Also, when chlorinating clothes, they tend to wear out faster - peroxide won't do that.
Food Preparation:
Vegetable Soak:
Use as a vegetable wash or soak to kill bacteria and neutralize chemicals. Add 1/4 cup 3% H202 to a full sink of cold water. Soak light skinned (light lettuce) 20 minutes, thicker skinned (like cucumbers) 30 minutes. Drain, dry and refrigerate. Prolongs freshness.
If time is a problem, spray vegetables (and fruits) with a solution of 3%. Let stand for a few minutes, rinse and dry.
Meat Sanitizing:
You can also use it to rinse off your meat before cooking.
Leftover tossed salad:
Spray with a solution of 1/2 cup water and 1 Tbsp. 5%. Drain, cover and refrigerate.
Marinade:
Place meat, fish or poultry in a casserole (avoid using aluminium pans). Cover with a dilute solution of equal parts of water and 3% H202. Place loosely covered in refrigerator for 1/2 hour. Rinse and cook.
Sprouting Seeds:
Add 1 ounce 3% hydrogen peroxide to 1 pint of water and soak the seeds overnight. Add the same amount of hydrogen peroxide each time you rinse the seeds.
Grades of Hydrogen Peroxide
A) 3.5% Pharmaceutical Grade: This is the grade sold at your local drugstore or supermarket. This product is not recommended for internal use. It contains an assortment of stabilizers which shouldn't be ingested. Various stabilizers include: acetanilide, phenol, sodium stanate and tertrasodium phosphate.
B) 6% Beautician Grade: This is used in beauty shops to color hair and is not recommended for internal use.
C) 30% Reagent Grade: This is used for various scientific experimentation and also contains stabilizers. It is also not for internal use.
D) 30% to 32% Electronic Grade: This is used to clean electronic parts and not for internal use.
E) 35% Technical Grade: This is a more concentrated product than the Reagent Grade and differs slightly in that phosphorus is added to help neutralize any chlorine from the water used to dilute it.
F) 35% Food Grade: This is used in the production of foods like cheese, eggs, and whey-containing products. It is also sprayed on the foil lining of aseptic packages containing fruit juices and milk products. THIS IS THE ONLY GRADE RECOMMENDED FOR INTERNAL USE.
G) 90%: This is used as an oxygen source for rocket fuel.
Only 35% Food Grade hydrogen peroxide is recommended for internal use. At this concentration, however, hydrogen peroxide is a very strong oxidizer and if not diluted, it can be extremely dangerous or even fatal. Any concentrations over 10% can cause neurological reactions and damage to the upper gastrointestinal tract. There have been two known fatalities in children who ingested 27% and 40% concentrations of H202. Another reports tells of a 26 month old female who swallowed one mouthful of 35% H202. She immediately began vomiting, followed by fainting and respiratory arrest. Fortunately, she was under emergency room care and although she experienced erosion and bleeding of the stomach and esophagus, she survived the incident. When she was re-examined 12 days later, the areas involved had healed (J Toxicol Clin Toxicol 90;28(1):95-100).
Personal note: As with ANY food, drug, or supplement, using the product according to instructions is key to safety. If someone uses too much, then of course ramifications may be felt. We've NEVER heard of ANY harmful side effects from the correct usage of Food Grade hydrogen peroxide. In dire cases of disease, intraveneous use may be recommended. If you would like to find a doctor in your area trained in the use of intravenous H202 infusion, contact the International Bio-Oxidative Medicine Foundation (IBOM), P.O. Box 13205, Oklahoma City, OK 73113 at (405) 478-4266. They can provide names and addresses of doctors using the procedure in your area.
35% Food Grade H202 must be..
1) handled carefully (direct contact will burn the skin- immediate flushing with water is recommended).
2) diluted properly before use.
3) stored safely and properly (after making a dilution the remainder should be stored tightly sealed in the freezer).
One of the most convenient methods of dispensing 35% H202 is from a small glass eye dropper bottle. These can be purchased at your local drugstore. Fill this with the 35% H202 and store the larger container in the freezer compartment of your refrigerator until more is needed. Store the eye dropper bottle in the refrigerator. The generally recommended dosage is outlined in the chart below.
The drops are mixed with either 6 to 8 ounces of distilled water, juice, aloe vera juice or gel.
(Don't use chlorinated tap water to dilute the peroxide!)

MedicalConspiracies- Hair Is An Extension Of The Nervous System
Hair Is An Extension Of The Nervous System
Why Indians Keep Their Hair Long
By C. Young
12-9-11 http://www.rense.com/general95/hair.htm
This information about hair has been hidden from the public
since the Viet Nam War .
Our culture leads people to believe that hair style is
a matter of personal preference, that hair style is a matter of fashion
and/or convenience, and that how people wear their hair is simply a cosmetic
issue. Back in the Viet Nam war however, an entirely different picture
emerged, one that has been carefully covered up and hidden from public
view.
In the early nineties, Sally [name changed to protect
privacy] was married to a licensed psychologist who worked at a VA Medical
hospital. He worked with combat veterans with PTSD, post traumatic stress
disorder. Most of them had served in Viet Nam.
Sally said, "I remember clearly an evening when my
husband came back to our apartment on Doctor\'s Circle carrying a thick
official looking folder in his hands. Inside were hundreds of pages of
certain studies commissioned by the government. He was in shock from the
contents. What he read in those documents completely changed his life.
From that moment on my conservative middle of the road husband grew his
hair and beard and never cut them again. What is more, the VA Medical center
let him do it, and other very conservative men in the staff followed his
example. As I read the documents, I learned why.
It seems that during the Viet Nam War special forces in
the war department had sent undercover experts to comb American Indian
Reservations looking for talented scouts, for tough young men trained to
move stealthily through rough terrain. They were especially looking for
men with outstanding, almost supernatural, tracking abilities. Before being
approached, these carefully selected men were extensively documented as
experts in tracking and survival.
With the usual enticements, the well proven smooth phrases
used to enroll new recruits, some of these indian trackers were then enlisted.
Once enlisted, an amazing thing happened. Whatever talents and skills they
had possessed on the reservation seemed to mysteriously disappear, as recruit
after recruit failed to perform as expected in the field.
Serious casualities and failures of performance led the
government to contract expensive testing of these recruits, and this is
what was found.
When questioned about their failure to perform as expected,
the older recruits replied consistantly that when they received their required
military haircuts, they could no longer \'sense\' the enemy, they could
no longer access a \'sixth sense\' , their \'intuition\' no longer was
reliable, they couldn\'t \'read\' subtle signs as well or access subtle
extrasensory information.
So the testing institute recruited more indian trackers,
let them keep their long hair, and tested them in multiple areas. Then
they would pair two men together who had received the same scores on all
the tests. They would let one man in the pair keep his hair long, and
gave the other man a military haircut. Then the two men retook the tests.
Time after time the man with long hair kept making high
scores. Time after time, the man with the short hair failed the tests in
which he had previously scored high scores.
Here is a typical test:
The recruit is sleeping out in the woods. An armed \'enemy\'
approaches the sleeping man. The long haired man is awakened out of his
sleep by a strong sense of danger and gets away long before the enemy is
close, long before any sounds from the approaching enemy are audible.
In another version of this test the long haired man senses
an approach and somehow intuits that the enemy will perform a physical
attack. He follows his \'sixth sense\' and stays still, pretending to be
sleeping, but quickly grabs the attacker and \'kills\' him as the attacker
reaches down to strangle him.
This same man, after having passed these and other tests,
then received a military haircut and consistantly failed these tests, and
many other tests that he had previously passed.
So, the document recommended that all Indian trackers
be exempt from military haircuts. In fact, it required that trackers keep
their hair long."
Comment
The mammalian body has evolved over millions of years.
Survival skills of human and animal at times seem almost supernatural.
Science is constantly coming up with more discoveries about the amazing
abilities of man and animal to survive. Each part of the body has highly
sensitive work to perform for the survival and well being of the body as
a whole. The body has a reason for every part of itself.
Hair is an extension of the nervous system, it can be
correctly seen as exteriorized nerves, a type of highly-evolved 'feelers'
or 'antennae' that transmit vast amounts of important information to the
brainstem, the limbic system, and the neocortex.
Not only does hair in people, including facial hair in
men, provide an information highway reaching the brain, hair also emits
energy, the electromagnetic energy emitted by the brain into the outer
environment. This has been seen in Kirlian photography when a person is
photographed with long hair and then rephotographed after the hair is cut.
When hair is cut, receiving and sending transmissions
to and from the environment are greatly hampered. This results in 'numbing-out'.
Cutting of hair is a contributing factor to unawareness
of environmental distress in local ecosystems. It is also a contributing
factor to insensitivity in relationships of all kinds. It contributes to
sexual frustration.
Conclusion
In searching for solutions for the distress in our world,
it may be time for us to consider that many of our most basic assumptions
about reality are in error. It may be that a major part of the solution
is looking at us in the face each morning when we see ourselves in the
mirror.
The story of Sampson and Delilah in the Bible has a lot
of encoded truth to tell us. When Delilah cut Sampson\'s hair, the once
undefeatable Sampson was defeated.
This is about the results of the hair of ancient Egyptians. Some were red haired and white skinned.

FDA falls short on safety checks on disposable wipes makers
Springdale Morning News.
Little or no enforcement action taken against those with contamination issues
Shattered Trust
- The FDA has not inspected several thousand drug and device makers in at least five years, and hundreds of plants have not seen an inspector in a decade. Despite the whistleblower's warning and serious problems found in the Arkansas plant, Rockline's flagship plant in Sheboygan was last inspected in 1992. FDA records show Rockline's plant in south China and products shipped from there have not been inspected. By law, both plants are supposed to be inspected every two years.
- FDA inspectors found problems at Rockline's Arkansas plant in 2001, in 2006 and again in June - sometimes in the same areas - but the agency did not take enforcement action.
- An FDA inspector overlooked key problems in the Arkansas plant in 2006. A bacterium that can cause toxic shock syndrome was listed in company lab results, but not noted in FDA reports. The inspector also failed to note customers had complained about foreign objects in the wipes.
