then where do we get our iodine from?!
point respectfully accepted … there is a company called skin deep, that tests beauty products to determine their toxicity levels, not supplements/foods (think i saw one that confirmed or denied ingredients, but not sure who) … it’s interesting that some of the melaleuca (an MLM company) products are not much less toxic than other typical toxic stuff, but they claim to be so much better, i like some of their products but, was dissapointed by the skin deep findings
@offtoshambala……go to his video uploads, it was posted several weeks ago.
Sorry about the mis-spellings.
Read the book “Pritikin: The Man Who Healed America”s Heart”. It’s a great bio about a man who was NOT a certified health professinal, but a genius engineer. He discovered that he had coronary artery disease, when he was in his 40′s, and doctors gave him no hope.He was determined to find an answer and a cure for atherosclosis…and he did so! Dr. Gregers videos go further into the vaalue and sucess of vegan diets. He just ought to keep reminding people to supplement with Vit. B12.
I don’t mind if the people in the health industry make money by offering advice. They’re not in business for nothing. But when the advice proffered by those health professionals is DEAD WRONG, you bet I criticize them! How are people supposed to know what is good for them if all they’re told is a pack of lies…in accordance with the guidelines laid out by Big Pharma, Big Agra, Big Medicine, and all the other members of the corporatocracy that run this country,and are out to scam us…totally!
OK. I don’t know what you mean though. Many of his videos are about curing ailments with a plant-based diet. I know he has spoken of vegan diets being unhealthy, but they will be when they are based on junk food. There are healthy plant based (vegan diets) though, which is what is being promoted here. Peace
I’m not into superfoods except Hemp, but that is only because I like the way hemp tastes. Thanks for your feed back all the same :)
criticizing “health” industry peeps from making a buck is valid… do you also criticize the pharmaceutical industry? what about the various food industries that were using the USDA to promote their food in their recommendations even when the research showed their recommendations were flat wrong?… i think compared to what these small time people sell, is completely acceptable compared to the damage the pharmas & big food corps have done to the masses
can you give me the title of the video or a search term where dr G talks about Gersen & chemo?
And what does that prove, nothing, He like so many others are just capitalizing on the public’s demand for anything but the status quo. There’s a difference between simply giving veggies a nod of approval and saying that they are a good source of preventative maintenance, to promoting the same as a means to help cure many of our modern day ailments, and that is where he stops short, and in some cases speaks against.
He’s always promoting the benefits of a plant based diet. On his facebook picture, he’s smiling in front of a load of veggies! :-)
Where is it that he says that? Peace :)
Algae blooms are happening all over this poisoned planet more frequently. It is natures way to get back in balance. However, the over-fishing and polluting continue. The coral reefs are still rapidly declining. If you want to go see one, you better do it now because in the future you will only see them in old movies and re-runs of jacque cousteau. Or at a fish farm (fed gmo corn) near you!!
Fruits, veggies, nuts and seeds. Please check out my channel – I hope it might help. Peace
mind fvck, Ive been taking chlorella and spirulina for months now.
Someone please recommend safe alternatives to these ‘superfoods’…
Read the second post first….I wish there was more space to write in these comments.
Unfortunately, traces of neurotoxins and protein phosphatases (inhibiting compounds) have been detected, making these health supplements a good example for human exposure to a mixture of cyanobacterial toxins in a complex matrix. Hardcover

Anything for a buck! If you check Mercola’s archives, you should be able to find the interview with Steph….look under Dr. Stephanie Seneff interview….if you do find it, just listen to what she is saying! It’s like Jack LaLane pushing juicers…he knew it was wrong but he needed the money…

Jack lalane invented juicing……..lol, are you off your meds, I need not dignify that with a response. Lol geezzzz the gull of some people.
just spell out the address without the dot com
Mercola pushes WHEY PROTEIN. I don’t agree with that. What is this stuff about MEAT and FAT? Sally fallon trip= nonsense. Now Mercola is pushing coconut oil because of lauric acid and ketones+=more nonsense. Watch Jeff Novick Oils to Nuts explain about fats and oils. and his website and facebook page. Watch the video at parry Nutraceuticals website>NOW buys from them. I will continue to buy from them
I tried to go to the website page in the video and it didn’t work.. What I did read is 3 of 39 samples had anatoxin. So, he isn’t giving us all the information. Like saying Ecoli in sprouts from the guy down the street and now don’t eat sprouts. Check out the video at Parry Nutraceuticals website and you will see all of the employees lining up to get their daily comp drink. This is the best facility in the world. tell me what you think
