Politics and Money to Blame for Killing Consumer-Friendly Food Labeling Program
House-Senate Conference Committee on the agriculture appropriations bill (H.R. 2744) effectively killed a mandatory program that would require labels on foods sold in grocery stores to state where and how the food was raised or produced. Despite polls showing that consumers overwhelmingly support mandatory labeling, lawmakers have killed the idea in favor of a weaker, voluntary labeling program. A mandatory program would not have cost the government any money; that cost would have been borne by the food industry.

Cancer Patients Hide Their Use of Complementary and Alternative Treatments from their Doctors
Although almost half of cancer patients treated with chemotherapy and radiation are using at least one type of complementary and alternative medical therapy (CAM) treatment, 75% of them don't tell their doctor, even while receiving conventional cancer treatment. Most (88%) of patients are satisfied with using CAM as a cost-effective method of cancer treatment and use an average of two CAM treatments, with vitamin, herbal and botanical supplements being the most popular therapies. Only a little more than a third (36%) of them say their doctors were an important source of information on CAM.

Miracle in Rome?
A number of health freedom websites reported after the July 4 Rome meeting of the Codex Alimentarius Commission that a "miracle" had occurred, and that the World Health Organization and the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization had expressed "significant displeasure with the anti-health approach to nutrition taken by Codex over the past four decades." A review of the reports of what was actually said reveal how these assertions are largely either mistaken or exaggerated.

CONTINUING OUR 12-STAGE JOURNEY TO WELLNESS
This week our journey focuses on the power of TRANSCENDING, the 12th of 12 keys to wellness drawn from the Wellness Inventory whole person assessment program.

The human ability to transcend ordinary consciousness is actually an age-old gift that opens mind and heart to the potential of love, and to the miracle and magnificence of the moment, so often forgotten in the daily grind of our busy lives.

Understanding Homeopathy
The fact that about one in seven Americans suffer from chronic sinusitis suggests that conventional treatments are not very effective. Homeopathic medicines are often effective in treating the acute symptoms of sinusitis, although professional "constitutional care" is usually necessary to cure chronic sinusitis, according to homeopathic expert Dana Ullman in "Homeopathy and Sinusitis: Safer Remedies." This professional homeopathic treatment can lead to a significant reduction in the frequency and intensity of acute sinusitis attacks and can often even lead to a total elimination of their occurrence.

Echoes of Silence
There are hierarchies of creatures and vast civilizations within inches of your face. You can't see them, but they are there. They are built with consciousness, and that consciousness is who you are. You may have heard this. You may even believe it. You may even teach it. But have you yet dropped the pretense and falsehood of the lesser self? Have you abandoned all other identities? Do you live with the courage and strength and knowing inherent in the consciousness that cannot be known, destroyed, or corrupted? In "You Are God" Robert Rabbin states "Give everything else away and sink into this unfathomable abyss of being that you are."
