Success with the Hot-Water Baths

2012-01-21T16:30:00.000-08:00

After hearing Aajonus speak on interviews about the hot baths

[on the www.WeWant2Live.com site], we were convinced that we needed to do this therapy [see pg 286 of We Want To Live: the Primal Diet for details]. We have a big, deep bathtub. It's 25 years old, and we never used it. So, we got a candy thermometer to check the water temperature. We keep the water temp between 106 and 108 degrees. It takes 2 loads of hot water to fill up the tub. We drain one hot-water-heater load into the tub, cover the tub (with a make-shift cover) to hold in the heat while the water heater heats up another load -- then we drain that load into the tub.

It registers around 108 degrees when we get into the tub.

We just slide the cover back and get into the tub, with our heads sticking out. (Only one of us can get into the tub at a time.) You stay very warm that way. We also heat up the bathroom with our electric space heater, so it's warm in the room to begin with. I have only worked up to 10 to 15 minutes, and Keith up to 20. But, we go a second step. Right after we get out of the tub and dry off, we immediately get into a bed in a warm room, and wrap ourselves (including our heads) in towels and blankets for half an hour (or more if we fall asleep). We look like mummies with a small breathing hole over our face. Boy do we sweat! We have a regular infrared sauna that we used to use, and we never sweated like we do in the hot bath and bed. We switched over to the hot bath after we heard Aajonus say that he felt the sauna was too high a temperature.

Keith has had some amazing detoxes through this. During his third hot-bath-bed session, he was smelling the organic solvent toluene coming out of his breath. He started smelling this while he was in the hot bath, and it continued on during the bed-sweating session. Over 35 years ago, my husband worked for several years in a plastic manufacturing plant as a chemical engineer. Without mask or fan, he breathed in toluene and other bad chemicals 8 hours per day.

This stuff was detoxing out of his body.

It was amazing to us, after all these years, -- to the point where he could smell it. It's funny -- he hasn't smelled it since, during any of the subsequent hot-bath-bed sessions. Another amazing detox episode was this past week, during his weekly hot-bath-bed-sweating session. He started feeling bad when he was soaking in the water -- just feeling yucky. Shortly after he got wrapped up in his "mummy" outfit in bed, he started violently chilling and shaking. I turned up the heater in the room, and put a lot more blankets on him. His forehead was not hot to the touch, so I knew he wasn't running a high temperature. He started having an "acid" stomach, which is not normal for him. He said he felt like he was getting a Dengue Fever flashback. (He contracted Dengue Fever -- a mosquito born infection like malaria -- while he was in high school in India. At that time, he had violent chills and shakes for 2 days. That was 47 years ago.) He has never had chills and shakes in all these years until this episode. This lasted for about 5 hours. We figure he was detoxing the Dengue Fever, because it was the same symptoms.

Between the Primal Diet and Hot Baths, we are seeing quick results.

We remember that Aajonus said that sometimes the body will dump it's toxins into the stomach to be neutralized by the stomach acids. During the 5 hours of chills and shakes, his stomach stayed very acid -- almost feeling like throwing up. He stayed in bed much of the next day, feeling wiped out and not hungry. But, the chills and shakes and reactions were over. So, we feel he had gone through another major detox.

The reason we get into bed to sweat after the hot baths is because of an incident I had when I was in High School. One time I had flu symptoms real bad. I took a real hot bath, because I was aching so bad. And then got into my bed,,, And I started sweating in the hot bed. After this I felt so much better. So, when Aajonus talked about the hot baths, I though about my experience in high school, and thought we should add the bed-sweating session to the hot-bath session. :o)

Happy, healthy new year!

Good Health - your highest priority

2011-12-20T23:00:00.000-08:00

The good health of yourself and family should properly be your highest priority. Family health has never been under greater assault than today.

When maintenance of optimal health is at stake, TRUTH is FAR stranger than fiction. Sadly, for the naive masses of uninformed *SAD fans and 'pill-poppers', following so-called 'conventional wisdom' translates stealthily, almost imperceptibly, to slow suicide.

In the near term, without a massive and determined voter action, FARMageddon, with its inevitable flood of GMO FRANKENFOOD, will quickly become a grim reality. In my opinion, sickness, not health, will then become the NORM. No surprise then, that Big Pharma will be one of the chief beneficiaries of the resulting windfall of 'allopathic' disease remediation. Being very much aware of the evils of GMO crops and cloned animal foods, wary Californians are set to vote on a proposition that would mandate the labeling of ALL GMO foods and ALL products containing GMO ingredients. Lets hope that Californians win this decisive, MEGA-bankrolled battle. Europeans have banned ALL GMO foods as well as GMO seeds! Californians don't want them, either. Experience has shown that "As California goes, so goes the nation."

The knowledge contained in the PRIMAL DIET NEWSLETTER is much more than health insurance. It addresses fairly and FEARLESSLY the vitally-important, often shocking, health concerns NOW, when you need them MOST. More importantly, PDN deals with hidden, ignored, below-the-radar issues HEAD-ON (and more importantly, what you can do about them). PDN most often exposes the guilty offender(s) like "a deer in the headlights". This important and timely advantage allows YOU to make vital midpoint corrections to your menu and lifestyle, incorporating crucial life-saving information IMMEDIATELY. When you read PDN, the hard research has already been done for you by an adept, highly-motivated research biochemist (having HIMSELF narrowly escaped FIRST-HAND the terrifying experience of an orthodox medical **DEATH SENTENCE).

Sad to say, due to myriad conflicts of interest(s) permeating the upper level staff offices of the popular news media outlets, factual information relating to crucial health issues is highly unlikely to ever "see the light of day". Heads would roll.

If all else fails, please remember the drill: Investigate, Educate and Circumnavigate, NOT Medicate.

A word to the wise is ALWAYS sufficient.

* Standard American Diet

** Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz, PhD, with Spartan stoicism, fought through years of abject despair, excruciating pain and frustration, at one point actually giving up and resolving to die by self-imposed starvation. Finally, with input gleaned from countless lectures, articles, books, experiments, personal experiences and a pivotal, life-changing stay among a tribe of friendly Arctic Inuits, Dr. Vonderplanitz formulated and further developed the radical protocol that he used to defeat his orthodox medically-imposed death sentence to save his own life. The core of this back-to-the-future protocol primarily consists of a hard-won collection of FACTS, PHILOSOPHY, PROPER FOOD and LIFESTYLE. The specifics have been duly outlined in two radical paradigm-changing books, "We Want To Live", "The Recipe For Living Without Disease" and a DVD, "Fast, Nutritious and Delicious Raw Food Recipes". These volumes comprise your best and most expedient route to OPTIMAL HEALTH.

I [Aajonus] and all members of Right To Choose Healthy Food club members contracted for ownership of the animals at those farms to produce the food we need for our health. We have the most righteous legal interest. Just because one judge made a bad ruling does not make it right or precedence. It is not over until all appeal processes have been exhausted, in at least 5 years from the date it is over in the lower court..

A few summers ago, Aajonus and a few friends spent weeks in Washington, D.C. handing the expert report by Aajonus and Dr. Douglass regarding raw milk [click here for more info] to each congress person.
Today, a subscriber (Sam S. of Missouri) has sent the following message:
"In this video [click here for the link] Ron Paul talks about people who came to him looking for raw milk freedom. And I assume he was talking about Aajonus and [his friend]!! Awesome!! That empowers me to know that we are more powerful than we think."

Healing and Health Issues

I've come to realize: start with food issues. I've done meditations, sports, etc., but none has done me a greater service than what I put into my body. Once I started to change my attitudes toward food, my health vastly improved.

I started this journey when my girlfriend suggested I check out [a site displaying your books] because she intuited some sort of affinity. I found out about this ascended master on [the site] and read some of the solstice channelings. Some of the teachings are too esoteric for me to comprehend, but what resonated was... advice to study and absorb the spiritual nature of food. Food that's cooked has little or no spiritual nurturing for us. You go to a supermarket and you can sense the elevated vibrations of the produce section and the low or dead vibrations of the refrigerated or processed foods sections. [The site] repeatedly points to the book We want to live, by Aajonus Vonderplanitz (rawmilk.org), which I finally ordered last Spring. It's become the most studied book I've had. I turn to it for any healing crisis I have and I've not visited a regular physician since I opened the book.

After a workshop and private session with Vonderplanitz,

I was onto my new food schedule. Weaned of coffee and alcohol, I found immediate health benefits in this new diet. The chronic health problems were gone over night and returned quickly when I didn't have access to my green juice during the week of moving into my house last month. Headaches though continued to flare up during stressful periods, but they now seem to have vanished, after I got my almgam fillings pulled a few weeks ago. John Butler, my healer in Syracuse, suggested I should get my teeth cleaned out now and not wait till I am healthier.
Right now, I am detoxing from mercury buildup and my lower back hurts a little, understandably. Some mercury leached into the body when the fillings were replaced (with plastic composites). Studies (with sheep) have shown that amalgam fillings leach into the body continuously, especially with hot beverages and foods. The kidney and the brain absorb the toxic metals, and I suspect now that many of us with lower back pain and/or urinary problems are fighting mercury poisoning. My back pain has been very subdued or vanished despite the mercury buildup in the kidneys due to the cilanthro I put in the green juice and the butter or coconut cream I eat with the juice. The fat traps the loosened mercury (made volatile by cilantro) and flushes it out of the body. Hot baths (with Epsom salt and baking soda for 22 minutes) help deal with flushing out radiation contamination and toxic metal through the skin, as does vigorous exercise.

Medical Myths

This raw foods diet dispels several medical myths and gives us tools to preach these new values:
1. fat is good: raw butter, raw coconut cream (homemade, with Greenstar juicer), raw avocados all are vital to build healthy fat cells in the body and strengthen the liver
2. eggs are great: raw eggs and lots of them heal during health crisis, take down swellings and flush out toxins. Forget the cholesterol scare.
3. eat starch in moderation: Aajonus suspects that my mother's heavy starch diet contributed to discoloring my eyes to brown. Now with this diet, the attempt is to bring them back to blue. Aajonus advises to eat a soft nut meal (ground nuts) only once a week.
4. raw [food] is an excellent source for healing.
5. raw milk is the best: this gets to the crux of our modern neurosis, that all milk and juices, etc., have to be processed, pasteurized and homogenized. Once I started drinking raw milk my teeth and gum pains disappeared.
6. green juices are beneficial: it's hard for our stomach to absorb raw vegetables, such as salads, especially cucumbers because they are high in fibers. With a Greenstar Juicer or other model that separates fiber and juice, we get a high energy drink; no need for coffee; well, I still retain my weakness for teas, even though I know full well that they make the body acidic.

I no longer accept that disease is the way of living, especially into old age.

I started on this new diet - and I have never followed any strict diet plan before -when I realized that quite a few of my friends had contracted cancer and some died because, as I suspected, of using chemotherapy. Given my own protracted health problems which could only be stabilized with antibiotics, I grew impatient and ask for new holistic perspectives. I no longer accept that disease is the way of living, especially into old age, I am no longer scared of cancers because I know that there's a way to reverse it, and it's not advertised by the medical establishment that pushes chemical treatment. Aajonus has been dubbed the guru of the 'underground raw milk movement' by the Wall Street Journal. They are taking note of us. Let's not be deterred by it, but convince ourselves to overcome fears and walk lightly on a new path of healthfulness.

Right to Access Healthy Food in 9 States

2011-03-26T10:09:00.000-07:00

"Last year brought a crackdown on raw milk and cheese sales in response to their increase in popularity with consumers. The FDA raids were conducted usually over small legal infractions regarding proper sales and labeling. [Click here for Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund news about] new bills being presented by nine different states that will clarify and in some cases expand opportunities for raw milk producers to share their goods.

This is a breath of fresh air after seeing the FDA team up with big-ag milk producers to squash people’s ability to access and consume truly nutritious products instead of continuing to rely on corporate produced dairy.

It’s wonderful progress to see such action to solidify these farmers’ rights and ability to provide safe and nutritious goods. Let’s hope it slows down the unnecessary raids and undue scrutiny so that raw food choice continues to grow in popularity and availability for consumers seeking healthier alternatives.

Health Professional Writes to Aajonus

2011-02-25T19:47:00.000-08:00

Hi Aajonus,

Lately, I have been using your genius to help my patients, when they will listen. Some take a long time to embrace some of the ideas, some jump right in, others...I go verrrry slowly with them. Of course, I recommend they get your books because I cannot possibly help them understand everything as well as if they just read them for themselves. One of my patients went to California for a consult with you and a new patient of mine is considering it.

Thank you so much for all the work you have done and are still doing. I am experiencing directly how profound it is and am awed by the power of raw food. It has changed the way I practice because I know there is only so much I can do for a patient if they won't change their diet to all raw as you describe it. The level of healing that is possible on the Primal Diet just blows me away...

Water Quality Report - by whom, for whom?

2011-01-23T11:19:00.000-08:00

Hi Aajonus,Have you seen this Water Quality Report - Why is Gerolsteiner One of the Worst Waters to drink? http://breakingnews.ewg.org/bottled-water-2011-search

Hi,
Gerolsteiner received an F- because it does not treat its water at all and does not remove any bacteria that naturally exists in its completely natural water. Rainwater is especially abundant with bacteria. No other water in the world can foster agricultural growth like bacteria-rich rainwater.
According to Environmental Working Group (EWG) who made this study, bacteria in water is bad and therefore Gerolsteiner water is bad by its standards. However, the major reason Gerolsteiner got an F- was because Gerolsteiner did not disclose on its label that it was not treated and may contain bacteria. Any company calling itself Environmental Working Group and gives its safest water-endorsements to 3 of the most pollutant food companies in the world (Gerber, Nestle and Penta), its values must be scrutinized and its roots should be tracked to those companies. Many such so-called environmental groups/organizations are bought, paid-for and even established by corrupt companies for the purpose of falsely elevating their products and/or motives to desirable status. Notice that the word 'purified' is on the labels of all of the products of Gerber, Nestle and Penta. Purified means that some industrial chemical process was utilized to alter the water.
Remember that we have only 1 human gene in our digestive tracts for every 150 bacterial genes. We have 100-150 bacterial genes to every 1 human gene. I have not found one natural bacteria that is a pathogen in the human body. Considering that I have consumed more "pathogenic"-bacterially rich foods than any man in modern society but am vitally healthy in my 64th year, when, according to medical pseudo-science, I should have been killed by them. It has been my empirical experience that the only pathogens are industrial chemical toxicity and fraud.
I want natural bacterially-rich water that is life-promoting untouched by industrial manipulation and contamination. What do you want?
healthfully,
aajonus

Medical trickery...

2011-01-18T19:39:00.000-08:00

I am a survivor from advanced spinal cancer, for which I have had some major help from Aajonus Vonderplanitz and his Primal Diet! When I was first diagnosed, Aajonus sent me to the BioMedical Center in Tijuana to get their herbal formula to help me, in addition to the PD, since spinal cancer is considered generally to be fatal. I am very glad I took his advice.

When I went there a few weeks ago, their medical doctor pointed out something VERY interesting about the blood test readings: the medical community has established lower norms on some key parts of blood tests in order to get more customers for themselves. Case in point: Blood Glucose used to be 70-110 mg/dL as normal. That was a year and a half ago. Now the normal is 65 -100 mg/dL. That means that more people will have a higher than the normal blood glucose. That means more people will purchase diabetes medicines, and doctors will add more patients to their rosters, and the medical community (to say nothing of the pharmaceutical industry) will make lots more money! Medical trickery?

The same medical doctor also said that there was a similar lowering of norms for blood cholesterol readings. That means more patients on cholesterol and heart medication = more money for the medical and pharmaceutical industries! And who wins at that one? Is it the patients???

Here's a positive personal testimonial that was sent to us by Kelly in New Jersey:

I went for my biannual teeth cleaning today after 12 months on the primal diet. The hygienist said my teeth were easier to clean than before and the sensitive spot where I had oral surgery four years ago was not sensitive during the cleaning. I'm so happy to be having positive experiences on the primal diet!

New Year Option for Health

2011-01-02T12:05:00.000-08:00

Here is wisdom of the ancients and some research, forwarded to you by Mark R., who is doing well on the Primal Diet:

"Man does not die, he kills himself." :Seneca.

"Let your medicine be your food and your food be your medicine." Hippocrates, father of modern medicine.

"I firmly believe that if the whole materia medica [pharmacopoeia] could be sunk to the bottom of the sea, it would be all the better for mankind and all the worse for the fishes." Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809 - 1894) Lecture, Harvard Medical School.

Why not resolve now to radically improve your health in 2011 by investing in a quality vegetable juice extractor? LIVE fruit and vegetable juices preserve and protect LIVING CELLS. Make your juice extractor your liquid food source AND your pharmacy.

PLEASE. Don't put it off. Many vendors are having pre-inventory clearance sales as you read this. I've already done the research for you and found the best juice extractors (those scoring the highest consumer ratings) as follows:

GOOD: Least expensive. Heavy duty. Highest RPM motor of the group (producing heat and foam with moderately high enzyme loss), built like a tank, BUT many plastic parts are in contact with the juice (phthalate and bisphenol A can leach from plastic parts). Relatively dry pulp. www.championjuicer.com

*BETTER (has twin counter-rotating magnetic gears spinning at a very low 110 RPM): www.2-life.com/site/greenstar_elite_juicer.html

**BEST (Latest, most efficient and improved model, all stainless steel construction. Its twin counter-rotating gears spin at an ultra-low 86 RPM, preserving more than 85 percent of the original nutrients, producing little or NO OXIDIZING FOAM, the coolest juice, highest enzyme content, greatest VOLUME of juice, and the DRIEST pulp. www.angeliajuicer.com/detail.htm?ProductID=Angelia_8500_110V

Mark

* Mid-priced. Personal choice of, and recommended by world famous author, lecturer, researcher and nutritionist, Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz, PhD.

** Heirloom quality, powerful, as well as the most expensive. If well cared for, however, the Angelia 8500 may possibly be the only juice extractor that you will ever need.

What Is Going On in the Food Safety World?

2010-12-07T20:19:00.000-08:00

Some of you may look to this blog and wonder what is going on in the food safety world with small farmers being raided and very underhanded attempts to discredit local farms, organic farms, raw milk and even farmer's markets over the entire country. Also you may wonder why is the government attempting to pass laws to enable governmental agencies to make choices that should be made within a household. These are good questions indeed.

Re: Oppose S.510

Dear Representative,
I oppose the unconstitutional S. 510 that was passed in Senate on 11/30/10. It opens the floodgates for tyrannical federal bureaucrats to crush the food industry's small businesses. Sen. Coburn said that this fake "food safety" bill will raise food prices, add $1.5 billion to deficit, add unfunded state mandates, and drive up the costs of food production by adding more layers of government interference. It will NOT increase food safety one bite.

Despite contrary claims, close examination of S. 510 reveals that the FDA acquires even more power than before to shut down family farms on a whim. As I write this, the few provisions that give some protections to small-scale farmers are under attack by Big Ag, which doesn't want to give your local food producers an inch of wiggle room.

The bill also empowers federal agencies to impose international guidelines and standards on domestic food producers - molding American food production into an unhealthy globalist Codex system.

Don't let the statists empower their Big Agriculture allies and destroy reputable food producers like the independent family farm, where the free market works every day to provide the public with healthy choices.

Stop the FDA’s War on Food! Kill S.510.
Sincerely,

Why Take Both? The Answer is Right Here:

1. Senate Has Not Reported S510 Out To House Yet!

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IT COULD DIE AT THIS STAGE (good)

2. S510, Section 107 is unconstitutional (only the House can raise revenue) so the House can

2a. "Blue Flag" S510 and send it back to the Senate or

2b. The House can defeat S510 (good)

2c. The House can pass S510 as sent to it (bad)

3. If the House Blue Flags S510, it goes back to the Senate where

3a. The Senate could defeat S510 (good) or

3b. The Senate could run out of time to pass an amended S510 (good) or

3c. The Senate could pass S510 after the amendment to remove Sec. 107. It would then send it to the House again where

3.1 The House could defeat it (good) or

3.2 The House could pass it (tragically bad)

It is time to hammer both the House and the Senate really, really hard.

"Swingin' the Freedom Hammer!"

Back in the 60's there was a freedom song that said, "If I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning, I'd hammer in the evening, all over this land. I'd hammer out justice, I'd hammer out freedom, I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters all, all over this land!"

http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=7653

"Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty—power is ever stealing from the many to the few…. The hand entrusted with power becomes … the necessary enemy of the people. Only by continual oversight can the democrat in office be prevented from hardening into a despot: only by unintermitted Agitation can a people be kept sufficiently awake to principle not to let liberty be smothered in material prosperity."
-- Wendell Phillips, speech in Boston, Massachusetts, January 28, 1852

"A desperate Senate lame-duck majority sees its last chances to impose Food Fascism on America dwindling fast. The authors of this horror, primarily Reid and Harkin, can be expected to try any maneuver in their parliamentary-bag-of-tricks to sneak S.510 (and perhaps the other bad bills) through Congress during the waning hours of the session… and they have about two weeks to do so!

Says one commentator: “Senate sponsor of “the most dangerous legislation in history” – S 510 – Sen. Tom Harkin (IA) insists they’ll find a way to get this FDA food control package through – despite the fact that the House has pointed out its unconstitutionality – (Due to King Harry’s Senate passing a law full of new taxes) a job reserved by the U.S. Constitution for the House of Representatives only.” Read more: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=7653

One day to elections, the right to choose healthy food.

2010-11-01T12:03:00.000-07:00

Hello to all,

And let's use this time to call president Obama 202-456-1111 (or fax at 202-456-2461) and tell him to NOT support these food bills: S510 and S3767. There is government tyranny here in interfering with our rights to choose healthy foods, based on our own research and knowledge of which foods will be healthy for us to consume. Do we want criminal penalties for those involved in choosing/dispensing these foods?

I hope you will also call your senators and let them know the same.

All have personnel answering the phones.

Thanks! Barbara Ellingson.

I Came Back... You Can Too

I Came Back... You Can Too

It took me four years full time to get well... The day after my diagnosis I closed my business, went on a fast, joined a Zen group, and literally turned my world upside down. I said to myself "...I can figure out what's up with me and fix me..." So I took my skills and went at my body, researched, asked, busted balls, spent all my money, then begged for free help, went away on retreats, fasted more, and in the mist of it signed up for a full load at college, which dismayed my friends and relatives, for in their mind I was dying...I studied, sat on my pillow and meditated, became close to a qigong master, and traveled the country to find the best teacher... One time I had to be emergency airlifted home, arriving at my acupuncturist near death, scarring the life out of him...I needed to rebuild myself from the inside out, to become literally a new creature.

I ate the wildest shit, I was raw for two years, lived on wheat grass and sprouts, then soo thin I could hardly stand I knew I need to be nourished... I found a man who told me about the primal diet, a raw diet that included all foods... Meat, eggs, tons of raw butter, goat milk, cream, and raw greens... After 2.5 months on that I awoke... (let me say that for years I had bleed every day, I’d awake with blood on my pillow, my nose clogged with it, my bed soaked from nite sweats, I would sleep on beach towels to absorb the sweat, changing them many times each nite) that morning no blood in my nose, my bed was dry. I thought... hmmm oh how interesting... hee hee...

This was the beginning... In the next two years I worked on my spleen (it was huge), rebuilt my body... I am now well, whole...

2010-10-28T15:03:00.000-07:00

Hello! We just got a message from Jay Harrison of Accent Radio Network that Aajonus will be interviewed on the www.AccentRadio.com station starting at 12 noon EST on Friday October 29th. (That is 9 AM Pacific time).
Apparently this station is accessible in most locations around the USA. The show is called Daniel Chapter One HealthWatch (now CENSORED). The interviewers Jim and Tricia Feijo are particularly interested in the issues surrounding raw milk, it's benefits, availability and so on.
There is a phone number associated with this: 386-776-2009. You could probably get assistance in connecting and might be able to ask live questions or make comments during the interview.
Please tell anyone who might want to hear Aajonus on this topic.
Highest regards,
Jim Ellingson

"the doctors" video helped me find my path

2010-10-12T10:48:00.000-07:00

"One video, "the doctors" presentation, considerably changed my life and definitely helped me find my path. AV [more info here...] showed those chumps how to love some micro-organisms! And AV appears healthier than just about every other health "authority" out there. How could I not have tried it?! Went strait to WF and brought back some buffalo. Sliced it up and never turned back. I know I bought in to it fairly easy, but I have no desire to eat anything else. Especially some hot, dry, destroyed energy form. This way of eating is so obvious, It amazes me to think I almost would have been eaten up by the upcoming plague. Instead I will thrive, thanks a LOT to all involved."

Senate bills: SB510 and SB3767

2010-10-05T20:46:00.000-07:00

There are two bills that were not passed before Senate went on their six week recess, thanks to all our efforts and protests not to pass them! These two bills would impose serious restrictions on our food choices.

Please continue to fax your senators NOT to let these food bills pass when the senators return. Let them know your concern for our food choices, and that you are COUNTING ON THEM to quash these two bills! Thanks to all.

(Dr. Rima Laibow is one very active fighter for our food choices and rights. You may follow her activities as well by searching her on Google.)

Aajonus answers about food bills and priorities

2010-09-29T13:36:00.000-07:00

Aajonus (click here to find who he is) was asked in a recent question and answer session in Marina Del Rey, California, about harmful bills being pushed through congress, which would interfere with healthy food.

He pointed out (paraphrased by Jim) that the Right to Choose Healthy Food is priority for Primal Dieters to safeguard the legality of raising and having food by small farmers and share owners.

He asks for $100 from 3,000 people strictly to achieve victory in the legal field. He pointed out that those who do not donate [quoted from an earlier email] "are all right with losing your choices for the foods you wish to consume.

"If you are not okay with that, then please donate to Right To Choose Healthy Food through Paypal to optimal@earthlink.net; or at www.RawMilk.org, or send check to RTCHF, POB 176, Santa Monica, CA 90406-0176. We must hurt government in the only place it suffers, loss of time for and money from its budget for lawsuits."

After that priority, we have a responsibility to tell our congress people in no uncertain terms to kill all harmful food bills. Aajonus referred to the Natural Solutions Foundation whom I quote here:

S.3767, New Companion Bill to S. 510 Introduces Severe Criminal Penalties
For "Adulterating" Food, Which To FDA Means... Selling Supplements!

Food Fascism Battle is Far From Over

1. Must Take Revised Action Item Each Day; CLICK THE LINK RIGHT HERE:
http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=4613

2. Must send viral! Please forward this item, urging contacts to take th
Action Item and then send it to their contact with the same request.

3. Check http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm to Find Your Senators' Phone Numbers.
Call Your Senators and Leave a Strongly Worded Message Like This One, Two, Three, Four:

1. S.510 is a CONTROVERSIAL BILL, adding criminal penalties to it through S.3767 is more controversial --
2. Please, Senator, put a HOLD on ALL "FOOD SAFETY" bills!
3. Senator, don't let it be pushed through the Senate immediately by parliamentary means as a non-controversial bill.
4. The bill can be reintroduced in January when hearings can held to allow groups which are opposed to the bill to tell how it will affect them and the American food supply."

Postscripts from Jim:

No comparable bills in the House of Representatives appear to be live at this time. If/when I find out differently I will let you know about that as well.

Also, there is a warning from The Hill (news) that Senate majority leader may try to force a controversial vote today or tomorrow or conceivably attach it to another bill in a mad rush to pass S.510 and many other very questionable bills all now or immediately after the elections.

Thanks Aajonus

2010-09-18T10:45:00.000-07:00

This post was from Dawn, about her pet dog, and how he got her to try the Primal Diet of Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz, PhD Nutrition.

"My 16 month old dog has been eating raw longer than I have, VBG! He was my inspiration for trying the Primal Diet. He beat all his litter-mates in this year's WRA Nationals (Whippet straight racing 200 yards per race, 4 races in the day) coming in 19th of 63 dogs entered. He's a wonderful athlete and a joy to have.

"He was on the raw diet for 3 weeks before I got him. Then I tried the vet's suggested dog food but he stopped eating. After reading "Switching to Raw" by Susan K. Johnson, he started eating again when I offered him raw food. He loves it. And now 1-year later we can see what a healthy happy boy he is. Thanks for the encouragement. I'm looking for a racing buddy in a second Whippet for him to run with at the Dog Park."

Choosing to Lose Your Rights to the Healthy Foods You Consume

2010-09-15T13:24:00.000-07:00

Please read all the way to the end or if you are in a hurry, just read the last paragraph starting "When Rawesome was raided..."

Aajonus' message of September 10th, 2010:

Can I, small farmers and you be considered enemies of government because we fight for our right to have healthy foods? Can we be jailed without offense, charge or trial? Obama announces his treasonable plan to adopt Hitler-style regime that completely removes civil rights. [Does he have] ...Bush-like plans for World Order? Watch this before it is pulled from the internet.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbslm1h8xjI&feature=related

Message of September 11th, 2010:

Hi, everyone,
Thank your for your replies both positive and negative. I was trying to be brief because everyone is so overwhelmed with emails but my brevity backfired with some of you.

...

...Obama ... is ... fulfilling the wishes of those who want One World Order. Less than 1% of the USA population knew who he was, so how did he become President with almost no notoriety and only a short campaign? More on Obama below.

For those who thought my email was fear-mongering: If fear is realistic action to curb loss of freedom, then it is not fear-mongering. Look what freedoms of healthy-food choices we suffered in the last 10 years: loss of truly organic foods free of any industrial chemicals; fresh raw fruit and vegetable juices off shelves of ANY store; meats including fish that is not tainted with chlorine, fluoride and other poisonous cleansers; easy access to raw milk without government harassment; and almost total elimination of our right to raw-meat recipes in restaurants except sushi bars.

The raids on food clubs, private coops and small farmers has increased immeasurably since last January and the feds are doing it with falsified warrants claiming felony behavior (necessary for such warrants) when all everyone is ever charged or threatened to be charged is misdemeanors. I think the feds took it from Obama's speech last year that they can claim just about anything they want and get away with it. Three of the 40 clubs I try to protect were raided and the suppliers raided after they confiscated our computers and data. Therefore, I think that regurgitating Obama's speech is pertinent. When five of us lobbied for a raw milk bill in Congress in Spring 2007, Obama's office was the only one that outright told us that if we wanted a bill written by them, we would have to pay thousands of dollars and if we wanted the bill to pass, "much more than tens of thousands of dollars." That was before we told him about what we were asking. Obama even agreeing that prolonged detention is okay was enough to encourage law-enforcers (misnomer?) to do as they please. Maybe I am not objective enough because I am fed up and time-consumed with all of this government intervention in our right to healthy food and our pursuit to be healthy. Please understand me and that we must stop this now before it escalates more. Thank you.

When Rawesome was raided in Venice, California June 30th, I sent an email asking for donations to bring a lawsuit for the 4 violations of our civil rights. Only 58 people donated out of the many thousands who received my message. We collected about $37,000. As I stated in my email, we need $300,000. Of course some of you cannot afford to donate but most of you can afford at least $100 to try and protect your right to healthy food. If only 3,000 people donated $100 dollars, that would cover it. Since so few of you donated, I must assume that most of you are all right with losing your choices for the foods you wish to consume. If you are not okay with that, then please donate to Right To Choose Healthy Food through Paypal to optimal@earthlink.net; or at www.RawMilk.org, or send check to RTCHF, POB 176, Santa Monica, CA 90406-0176. We must hurt government in the only place it suffers, loss of time for and money from its budget for lawsuits.
healthfully,
aajonus

PS. The talk on Food Chain Radio with me was a bust this morning. The host called me about 2 minutes prior to the show and said he would call me again after he increased his calling card fees. I waited for his call for 30 minutes. During that 30 minutes, four people from USA called me about not being on the show. I was unable to call the show on its 800 number because I am abroad. Almost 50 minutes into the show, Jim Ellingson conferenced me into the show. When his calling card expired, I was disconnected so my appearance was brief.

What Aajonus would have said...

2010-09-11T10:27:00.000-07:00

this morning on his radio interview by Michael Olsen. Somehow Michael did not have enough minutes on his calling card so I called Aajonus (in the Philippines) and put him on the air on a three way call until my calling card ran out.

2010-09-09T09:55:00.000-07:00

“You never let a serious crisis go to waste.” Rahm Emanuel

Two giant farms sold us a half-billion rotten eggs, and so agents of the government, with guns drawn and warrants in hand, are breaking down the doors of the little people who sell fresh, whole foods to their neighbors. But…

Why is government attacking little people with no problems instead of big people with lots of problems?

This Saturday at 9am Pacific, Michael Olson’s Food Chain Radio hosts Brigette Ruthman of Joshua’s Farm in Massachusetts, and Aajonus Vonderplanitz of the Rawsome Food Coop in Los Angeles, for Part II of a three-part conversation about the food safety crisis.

Topics include a look at government enforcement actions against the purveyors of fresh, whole foods; why government is attacking small producers with little or no food safety problems, while ignoring giant producers with huge food safety problems; and what government hopes to accomplish by attacking the little people.

Aajonus - On the Radio, Protecting Our Right to Healthy Food

2010-09-08T12:36:00.000-07:00

Aajonus is being interviewed regarding protecting our right to healthy food. Michael Olson of the Food Chain Radio is the interviewer. The show airs live from 9 AM to 10 AM (noon to 1 PM EST) Saturday September 11th; catch it at http://www.metrofarm.com/mf_Food_Chain_Radio.php on a radio station local to you or on your computer. The owner of Joshua's Farm in Massachusetts is also a guest on this show; she has initiated a legal battle. This promises to be an important interview.
P.S. This may seem to affect US citizens only but what happens in the USA - whether we protect our rights to grow and consume our own food - will affect other countries.

Bill S. 510 re: 'food safety' - thought it was dead? Think again.

2010-08-31T10:54:00.001-07:00

Shall we expand the reach of the FDA? Proposed bill S. 510 would provide an extra $1 billion. The FDA is working right now to end reputable food producers like the independent family farm where the free market works every day to provide the public with healthy choices.
The FDA would be expanded by nearly 4,000 new bureaucrats in the year 2010 so they can perform this 'operation'.
If you thought S. 510 was defeated, you should click here to read an informative article. Certain factions have too much at stake to leave it alone. You need to be informed of the tactics they are using. Your voice needs to be heard again; contact your senators today.

Raw Milk Conumers - Win a Battle Today and a War Tomorrow

2010-08-24T16:59:00.000-07:00

Falls Church, Virginia (August 20, 2010) - In a complex federal district court ruling, Judge Mark W. Bennett refused to grant a motion by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to dismiss a lawsuit filed against the agency by the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund (FTCLDF) and eight other named plaintiffs. The lawsuit argues that federal regulations (21 CFR 1240.61 and 21 CFR 131.10) prohibiting raw milk for human consumption in interstate commerce are unconstitutional as applied to FTCLDF’s members and the other plaintiffs named in the suit.

In his August 18 decision, Judge Bennett denied part of FDA’s motion to dismiss while reserving judgment on the remainder. As part of his ruling, the judge ordered proceedings in the case to be stayed sixty days to allow plaintiffs time to decide whether to file a ‘citizen petition’ with FDA. The petition would ask FDA to clarify its interpretation of the authorizing statutes and regulations giving the agency power to ban raw milk for human consumption in interstate commerce. If plaintiffs choose to file the citizen petition, the court would continue to delay the suit until the administrative proceedings were completed or until FDA failed to take action within the time the law requires. If plaintiffs declined to pursue the citizen petition, Judge Bennett indicated the court would reconsider FDA’s motion to dismiss.

In Judge Bennett’s view, the main question FDA needs to answer in the petition process is

whether § 1240.61 applies to and proscribes the conduct of (1) persons who travel from one state, where it is not legal to purchase raw milk, to another state, where it is legal to purchase raw milk, legally purchase raw milk, then return to the original state where they consume the raw milk themselves or give it to their friends or family members; or (2) a principal and agent who agree that the agent will obtain raw milk out-of-state, where it is legal to do so, and to deliver it to the principal in the principal’s home state, where sales of raw milk are not permitted; or (3) a producer of raw milk who sells raw milk in an intrastate transaction to persons that he knows are from out of state.

All of the individually named plaintiffs in the lawsuit fit into one of the three scenarios described above. Section 1240.61 provides in part,

No person shall cause to be delivered into interstate commerce or shall sell, or otherwise distribute, or hold for sale or other distribution after shipment in interstate commerce any milk or milk product in final package form for direct human consumption unless the product has been pasteurized….

Judge Bennett sees the citizen petition as a way to resolve the question of

whether the plaintiff’s conduct involves or affects “interstate commerce” sufficiently to fall within the proscriptions of § 1240.61, and, still more specifically, whether the plaintiffs’ conduct constitutes “delivery [of raw dairy products] into interstate commerce” or “distribution” of raw dairy products after shipment in interstate commerce.

Plaintiffs have survived the first round in the case. They have until October 18 to determine what their next course of action will be.

See the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund site for more data and to participate more directly.

Primal Diet - a 'thank you' note to Aajonus

2010-08-16T15:47:00.000-07:00

"I've been on the wonderful Primal Diet 12 years. When I first found Aajonus, I had some numbing in my arms. He saw in my irises that I had the onset of MS! I strictly followed his diet recommendations. At a checkup 1 1/2 years later, no signs remained!

Also soon after beginning the Primal Diet, my peri-menopause reversed, and only came back 2 years ago, at age 54. A number of other nice youthing [anti-aging] things happened! And I have better color and more energy than many 20 year-olds I know. Whenever I've had a health issue, Aajonus's advice has always been right on and worked. Our doggie is also Primal Diet and the picture of health.

Recently I visited a 54 year old lady with MS in a nursing home. I was filled with compassion and gratitude that this could have been me. Thank you, Aajonus, for your work."

Love,
Bess

"Choose The Foods That Are Best For Your Health"

2010-08-03T17:12:00.000-07:00

We at the Nutritional Foundation (and who run the www.WeWant2Live.com website) have received many phone calls and e-mails expressing concern and offers to help, in the wake of the raid on the Rawesome Co-op in Venice, on June 30th, 2010.

Recently a Canadian friend of Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz, PhD. Nutrition (this friend shall remain nameless for now) expressed concern that we were entering the legal arena, and that this could drain our efforts of time, energy and money.

This upside of suing the attackers would be to set legal precedents, and make it easier for those who follow us to choose the foods that are going to be best for their health.

Dr. Vonderplanitz replied to our Canadian friend: "some battles are worth fighting. This may be one, with help of course."

And so we encourage you (as Dr. Vonderplanitz has done) to donate money to "The Right To Choose Healthy Foods (P.O. Box 176, Santa Monica, Ca. 90406-0176)." Your help will be much appreciated in the continuing saga of getting good quality raw foods to everyone who chooses to consume them. And thanks

"Freedom to Grow, Sell or Buy Food..."

Dear health-giving-food lovers,
Please send the following senators listed below my sample letter below, or write one and send yours.
healthfully,
aajonus

Dear Congress(wo)man,

I am deeply concerned with your sponsorship of Senate Bill 510. That bill represents another hideous attempt to place more power into the hands of centralized government and robs individual citizens and states. The greatest danger to mankind is that this bill allows complete manipulation of America's food supply and threatens to strip us of our freedoms to grow, sell, and buy food and make doing any of those natural things crimes punishable by imprisonment. It would be a crime to grow food and share it with my friends and neighbors. The act of generating and supporting this bill is in itself criminal to our Constitution to which you are not immune. Not only remove your sponsorship from Bill S510 but defeat it. Thank you.

Sincerely,

(your name)

Senator Richard Durbin (D-IL) is the sponsor of this bill.

Senate Bill S510 Will Make It Illegal to Grow, Share, Trade or Sell Homegrown Food
by Steve Green

S 510, the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010, may be the most dangerous bill in the history of the US.
“If accepted [S 510] would preclude the public’s right to grow, own, trade, transport, share, feed and eat each and every food that nature makes. It will become the most offensive authority against the cultivation, trade and consumption of food and agricultural products of one’s choice. It will be unconstitutional and contrary to natural law or, if you like, the will of God.” It is similar to what India faced with imposition of the salt tax during British rule, only S 510 extends control over all food in the US, violating the fundamental human right to food." ~ Dr. Shiv Chopra, Canada Health whistleblower.

Monsanto says it has no interest in the bill and would not benefit from it, but Monsanto’s Michael Taylor who gave us rBGH (click here to view an early version of Aajonus' milk report to see what rBGH is and what it does) and unregulated genetically modified (GM) organisms, appears to have designed it and is waiting as an appointed Food Czar to the FDA (a position unapproved by Congress) to administer the agency it would create — without judicial review — if it passes.
S 510 would give Monsanto unlimited power over all US seed, food supplements, food AND FARMING...

(Just think - I almost took a tomato from my brother's garden this morning - Jim)

History
In the 1990s, Bill Clinton introduced HACCP (Hazardous Analysis Critical Control Points) purportedly to deal with contamination in the meat industry. Clinton’s HACCP delighted the offending corporate (World Trade Organization “WTO”) meat packers since it allowed them to inspect themselves, eliminated thousands of local food processors (with no history of contamination), and centralized meat into their control. Monsanto promoted HACCP.

In 2008, Hillary Clinton, urged a powerful centralized food safety agency as part of her campaign for president. Her advisor was Mark Penn, CEO of Burson Marsteller*, a giant PR firm representing Monsanto. Clinton lost, but Clinton friends such as Rosa DeLauro, whose husband’s firm lists Monsanto as a progressive client and globalization as an area of expertise, introduced early versions of S 510.

S 510 fails on moral, social, economic, political, constitutional, and human survival grounds.

1. It puts all US food and all US farms under Homeland Security and the Department of Defense, in the event of contamination or an ill-defined emergency. It resembles the Kissinger Plan.

2. It would end US sovereignty over its own food supply by insisting on compliance with the WTO, thus threatening national security. It would end the Uruguay Round Agreement Act of 1994, which put US sovereignty and US law under perfect protection. Instead, S 510 says:

COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS.

Nothing in this Act (or an amendment made by this Act) shall be construed in a manner inconsistent with the agreement establishing the World Trade Organization or any other treaty or international agreement to which the United States is a party.

3. It would allow the government, under Maritime Law, to define the introduction of any food into commerce (even direct sales between individuals) as smuggling into “the United States.” Since under that law, the US is a corporate entity and not a location, “entry of food into the US” covers food produced anywhere within the land mass of this country and “entering into” it by virtue of being produced.

4. It imposes Codex Alimentarius on the US, a global system of control over food. It allows the United Nations (UN), World Health Organization (WHO), UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and the WTO to take control of every food on earth and remove access to natural food supplements. Its bizarre history and its expected impact in limiting access to adequate nutrition (while mandating GM food, GM animals, pesticides, hormones, irradiation of food, etc.) threatens all safe and organic food and health itself, since the world knows now it needs vitamins to survive, not just to treat illnesses.

5. It would remove the right to clean, store and thus own seed in the US, putting control of seeds in the hands of Monsanto and other multinationals, threatening US security. See Seeds – How to criminalize them, for more details.

6. It includes NAIS, an animal traceability program that threatens all small farmers and ranchers raising animals. The UN is participating through the WHO, FAO, WTO, and World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) in allowing mass slaughter of even heritage breeds of animals and without proof of disease. Biodiversity in farm animals is being wiped out to substitute genetically engineered animals on which corporations hold patents. Animal diseases can be falsely declared. S 510 includes the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), despite its corrupt involvement in the H1N1 scandal, which is now said to have been concocted by the corporations.

7. It extends a failed and destructive HACCP to all food, thus threatening to do to all local food production and farming what HACCP did to meat production – put it in corporate hands and worsen food safety.

8. It deconstructs what is left of the American economy. It takes agriculture and food, which are the cornerstone of all economies, out of the hands of the citizenry, and puts them under the total control of multinational corporations influencing the UN, WHO, FAO and WTO, with HHS, and CDC, acting as agents, with Homeland Security as the enforcer. The chance to rebuild the economy based on farming, ranching, gardens, food production, natural health, and all the jobs, tools and connected occupations would be eliminated.

9. It would allow the government to mandate antibiotics, hormones, slaughterhouse waste, pesticides and GMOs. This would industrialize every farm in the US, eliminate local organic farming, greatly increase global warming from increased use of oil-based products and long-distance delivery of foods, and make food even more unsafe. The five items listed — the Five Pillars of Food Safety — are precisely the items in the food supply which are the primary source of its danger.

10. It uses food crimes as the entry into police state power and control. The bill postpones defining all the regulations to be imposed; postpones defining crimes to be punished, postpones defining penalties to be applied. It removes fundamental constitutional protections from all citizens in the country, making them subject to a corporate tribunal with unlimited power and penalties, and without judicial review.

"The Right To Choose Healthy Food" makes headlines

2010-07-31T10:44:00.000-07:00

The following articles about our right to choose healthy food speak for themselves. I suggest you have a little raw unsalted cheese handy (or a barf bag) in case any of this may make you queasy. Highlights include 30 seconds of agents entering a co-op in Venice, California. There is a lot of detail and a lot of good blogging in these. You will see where Aajonus' advice has been followed and where Aajonus' advice has not been followed to the regret of all concerned.

The War Over Raw Milk: A Battle Heats Up

Here is what Aajonus said in 2001, excerpted from an essay entitled "The Microbe Challenge":

"It is up to us to help every one we know to discern between the real threats to our health like conventional medicine and the imaginary threats like microbes. I honor all of the many people I know who have awakened out of their individual microbe-nightmares. Each one has found her or his way out of the quagmire by educating her/himself and then questioning, challenging and ultimately relieving of duty the microbe-doctors.

"Conventional medical science and the vested interests they serve is the biggest threat to the health of the world! Will people in government recognize the real monsters and the real threats before it is too late? The ball is now in your court, Supervisors. Will you, the ultimate rulers of County Health Services, vote in favor of our health, or the medical-establishment defended by health officials dictating their dogma?

"Hidden in plain sight is the alarming fact that we are more likely than not actively or passively participating in our own demise. Consider these assertions seriously; our health is at stake. Supervisors, please ask yourselves: How will I participate in health? Will I allow freedom of choice and equal protection, or will I choose health-demise dictated by unproved science? " by Aajonus Vonderplanitz (the full essay and many more articles, essays, Primal Diet Newsletters and media interviews are available to subscribers on the www.WeWant2Live.com site).

The Right To Choose Healthy Food

2010-07-07T20:36:00.000-07:00

This is part of a Press Release that was issued by Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz, PhD., Nutrition.

DO PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE HEALTHY FOOD?
One group of about 800 well-educated Los Angeles people believe they do. The group has many doctors, lawyers and teachers. They have rejected all health department regulations for food preparation. They want food that has not been touched or exposed to chemicals of any kind. All food producers and markets today expose their foods, especially meats and dairy to chemicals of all kinds, from iodine and ammonia to bleaches. Plus most have been grown with pesticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers and treated with additives.

This group of intelligent, health-conscious individuals calls their food club Right To Choose Healthy Food RAWESOME Club. They claim to have done their science homework that proves raw dairy is healthful and pasteurized dairy causes diseases from reports by the only true scientists of raw and pasteurized dairy Dr. William Campbell Douglass, Jr. M.D. and Aajonus Vonderplanitz, Ph.D. Nutrition. Both have not only had years of experience drinking raw milk themselves without incidents, they have observed and experimented with raw dairy for more than 40 years each with patients. Never have they seen an incident of food-poisoning from raw milk. They claim that medical doctors, FDA and CDC authorities have no experience with raw milk but plenty of prejudice against it because of the bad propaganda produced and paid for by the the pasteurized dairy industry early in the 20th century that falsely claimed raw milk caused typhoid and tuberculosis.

Last Wednesday, agents of USFDA, Los Angeles Prosecuting Attorney's office, California State Agriculture and Los Angeles County Health departments raided the food group and closed them down. They cited a lack of food health permits as cause but USFDA and California State were involved who have no jurisdiction over lack of county health food permit. Right To Choose Healthy Food's president and general manager Aajonus Vonderplanitz says that authorities want to ban raw dairy. Authorities confiscated mostly raw dairy products at the food club. Their warrant gave them permission to take samples for testing, such as vials or a bottle or two of each but authorities confiscated - Aajonus claims the correct word is stole - 17 huge coolers (3 ft X 1.8 ft. each). Mr. Vonderplanitz stated that authorities have been brainwashed against raw milk without any direct experience. They constantly claim that raw milk causes disease but have no science to support their clams.

Rawesome Club's members have leased animals and fields to own their own produce, so that it will be grown, produced and prepared the way they want it, healthfully. They pay the farmers for their services, including cultivating, boarding animals, collecting and packaging the foods members own for members only. Their club is not in the business of commerce; no one but the owners of the food - the members - get the food. Since members already own the food it is not commerce. Government has jurisdiction over commerce.

Los Angeles County Health Services tried to close the club in 2005 for the same reason but were informed that they had no jurisdiction and that no permits were required; members rejected health regulations for their own food. Now 5 years later, the same department accompanied by federal and state departments have repeated their stance that Rawesome operates without permit and it must have a permit., Mr. Vonderplanitz states, "We are ready to go to court to fight this. We have the right to healthy food the way we want it. Government does not have the right to tell us what we can eat and whether we are allowed to be healthy. They should mind their own business and follow the law. We are not in their jurisdiction. We have the right to eat healthy food."

healthfully,
aajonus

"The Primal Diet is Health-giving"...

2010-07-02T22:07:00.000-07:00

I’ve been on The Primal Diet for almost four years and have found it
very health-giving. No more achy back pain, gum disease, fibroids,
hormonal imbalances and other ailments I have already forgotten I had.
Using food as my medication is so freeing. Right now I am treating my
symptoms (and diagnosis by a rheumatologist) of rheumatoid arthritis
with diet, occupational therapy exercises, and meeting my emotional
needs head-on, not by taking steroids. After ten months on this
regimen, I feel that I am about 90% healed. I highly recommend taking
the time to explore what Aajonus Vonderplanitz and The Primal Diet can
offer for your improved and lasting health. My goal is not necessarily
to live longer, but to feel well every day, which is how I feel.

"Increased Chronic Disease..."

2010-06-24T15:22:00.000-07:00

"... of all age groups". This is from Sally Fallon of the Weston Price Foundation, re: The Proposed 1020USDA Dietary Guidelines, written on June 23rd, 2010, and sent to me by e-mail from Kimberly Hartke, who is the Weston Price Foundation Publicist.

Ms. Fallon calls these guidelines "a recipe for chronic disease."

Some of what she said was: "The proposed 2010 USDA Dietary Guidelines are a recipe for infertility, learning problems in children and increased chronic disease in all age groups." She further states that these guidelines "demonize saturated fats and animal foods rich in saturated fatty acids such as egg yolks, butter, whole milk, cheese, fatty meats...and animal fats. The current obesity epidemic emerged as vegetable oils and refined carbohydrates replaced these healthy, nutrient-dense traditional fats."

She goes into more detail by stating "Basic biochemistry shows that the human body has a very high requirement for saturated fats in all cell membranes; if we do not eat saturated fats, the body will simply make them from carbohydrates, but excess carbohydrate increases blood levels of triglyceride and small, dense LDL, and compromises blood vessel function. Moreover, high-carbohydrate diets do not satisfy the appetite as well as diets rich in traditional fats, leading to higher caloric intakes and often to binging and splurging on empty foods, resulting in rapid weight-gain and chronic disease."

So I say, lucky are we on the Primal Diet, who nourish our bodies with nutritious, raw animal foods and fats (as well as veggie juices and fruit smoothies) and accomplish detoxification at the same time.

A wholesome green grocery store coming to your area?

2010-06-17T10:10:00.000-07:00

On the subject of Whole Foods Markets, we noticed right away that WFM shelves as well as their deli hot bar and salad bar items were full of soy, canola, corn, and other grain-derived oils. They didn't even try to hide it from the patrons. I do not know if this is just blatant ignorance or stupidity. They also often fail to mention whether or not their fruit/veggie produce is GMO.
[Note: If you wonder what is wrong with soy, see the sample Primal Diet newsletter where this is covered in the third paragraph.]
Earth Fare, on the other hand, goes out of its way in an honest effort to address those issues for Huntsville's sophisticated, well-read, technology-oriented population. EF has even begun to address the xenoestrogens, e.g. diethyl phthalate- BPA plastic container issue. They're trying their best to go green by stocking as many wholesome food products as possible that are now becoming available in glass containers.

Earth Fare's corporate offices are located in Asheville, N.C. Their web address is as follows.

I hope that one day soon, Earth Fare will open a store near you, so WFM will have some REAL competition!

Is The Raw Food Diet Good For You? - The Larger View

2010-05-27T15:08:00.000-07:00

In an article on timesonline in the UK entitled Is Raw Food Good For You, the writer states: Cutting out meat, fish, eggs, dairy foods and cereal grains would result in the loss of many nutrients.

Who could argue with the fact that cutting out meat, fish, eggs and dairy foods would result in the loss of many nutrients!

The thought does not occur to her apparently that eating these foods raw IS part of a healthy raw food diet.

You just need good sources to know for sure what you are eating – for example are your eggs from cage free chickens? Does it matter if they are fertilized? Are the chickens fed waste products? Or soy? Is raw cheese salted? What is wrong with adding salt? Do I get enough natural salts in a balanced raw diet? Is the beef or buffalo or mutton grass fed exclusively? Are the fish from the deep sea or from contaminated waters?

There are lots of questions. Aajonus has asked these questions and many more. In addition to The Recipe for Living Without Disease which tells many practical and important facts and techniques for food preparation, he has created a report of producers and distributors in the USA whose food products are within his standards. This can be obtained on the www.wewant2live.com site; click here for more info.

There are other questions about organic vegetables exclusively which can be important because vegetables and particularly vegetable juice is part of a balanced raw diet. The word organic gets re-defined by vested interests to the point where the only way to be sure of the nutrient value of your vegetables is to grow them yourself using techniques you will find at www.organicfoodforless.info. Other gardeners and horticulturists have parts of the picture but this horticulturist in Australia has the whole picture and it is easier, costs less and is more rewarding than you may have thought.

Raw Milk Advocate Max Kane speaks

2010-05-17T12:37:00.000-07:00

Excerpted from the beginning of a fascinating interview on the Joanne Unleashed.com blog
Joanne: Hello. Welcome to Joanne Unleashed. Today’s guest is Max Kane. He’s an advocate of raw milk, and he’s coming under a lot of fire by our government. In this interview he’s going to be talking about his health problems and how he recovered with raw milk and raw meat. He’s also going go share a lot of information on his views on the role of bacteria. This is a paradigm that most people are completely unaware of, and you do not want to miss this interview. So welcome.

Max: Thanks for having me.

Joanne: Tell me about the health problems that you had when you were younger.

Max: I grew up in the metropolis known as Chicago, so my body was bombarded with a lot of industrial pollution through the air and the water. My diet was extremely processed. I grew up on the average American diet, they call it the SAD diet where you’re eating fast food, and microwaved foods and so forth. At the age of ten my body completely broke down where it started expressing symptoms. It couldn’t handle the toxic load any more. The symptoms were terrible. Severe joint pain. Weight loss. I was wasting away. My skin was extremely pale and dry. I looked like one of those zombies from Night of the Living Dead. If you can imagine one of those zombies in a Nazi death camp. So I went to a medical doctor. They ran their tests and stamped me with a label. They said I had Crohn’s disease and it incurable, and they didn’t know exactly what caused it. I was really scared at the time. But they offered some relief through some medication which, due to my ignorance, I thought was a great idea at the time. I started taking medication. I was medicated for about ten years. After ten years I realized I wasn’t getting any results, and I was taking these pills every day. I was very committed to taking the pills. I have some friends in the inner city who sold crack, actually, and I was making an analogy through my mind how I myself was like a crack head, except going to the corner in the ghetto, I was going to Walgreen’s every month to get my pills. Through that analogy I started looking to the alternative realm. I was doing okay financially at the time, so I started buying more expensive food and shopping at Whole Foods. That’s where I learned about organic food for the first time. I never knew what it was. And then from there my education just progressed and evolved into more of a natural foods, unprocessed foods diet. Then in my mid-twenties I started adhering to a totally unprocessed food diet, which means a raw diet—animal-based as opposed to vegan and vegetarian—so a lot of raw meat, eggs, dairy, vegetables as well. It’s like an all raw food, omnivorous-based diet leaning toward carnivorous. And there’s not really much material out about that as far as reading material. Except there are a couple good books by an author, Aajonus Vonderplanitz. He has two books: one called We Want to Live and the other called The Recipe for Living Without Disease. Other than that, no one’s really published on the subject except there was a cat study done by Francis Pottenger, Jr. back in the thirties, but that was on cats, never on humans eating raw meat. So I started that diet and my health totally turned around. I stopped taking all medication. I put on over 80 pounds of healthy, athletic weight. I’ve been asymptomatic for multiple years now, and I’m in total control of my health.

Joanne: What got you going into raw meat? Was it after reading that book? Or did you just naturally…

Max: No, no. I got into the raw meat before. I used to play professional billiards, and some of the people I played with were Filipino. They took me out to this sushi place, and it was the first time I ever had raw meat. It was raw fish. And I was kind of squeamish. But these were good friends of mine; I didn’t want to insult their culture. So I’m eating this raw salmon. This is like back in my early twenties before I even became conscious of nutrition. That was my first experience with raw meat. But then later when I saw this first nutritionist in my mid-twenties, his name was Jim Marlow, he was the one who suggested eating raw meat. I just ran with that idea, and my body flourished, my health flourished. It was really against everything they tell you. The whole paradigm about bacteria causing disease is not founded, according to my experience. It’s almost the exact opposite that bacteria aid disease—they help you rebuilt your body—and chemicals cause disease. So I’ve been doing my best to stay toxic-free and bacteria-heavy.

"Raw Meat Made Me Feel Phenomenal!"

2010-05-05T11:42:00.000-07:00

I was half way through the book “We Want to Live” by Aajonus Vonderplanitz and by Christmas day I decided to eat in the raw. I had to try it. All I had was some organic lamb meat from New Zealand. I put raw organic unheated honey on it with some organic dried basil... I had my organic raw milk from Organic Pastures and made raw egg smoothies with it. I was already making the transition to raw foods by the time I got the book; I just had not implemented eating raw meat. I had been consuming raw milk for three years.
The way eating raw meat made me feel was phenomenal! Just after three days my body order went away, my hair was nice and soft, the oil in my hair was not making me feel dirty like I have to shampoo everyday. My skin felt softer, my teeth felt stronger, as my body did and my legs. My toothache went away! I thought I would have to have another root canal. But, wow I can’t believe it, raw meat is a natural painkiller! I was waking up fully in my body and not groggy. However I was a little giddy and I loved myself more. If this is the only side effect than wow, give me raw meat every day! Plus, eating raw meat seems to have helped me to regulate my hormones. I really like not being over emotional and needy. I just feel fantastic! How wonderful is that? Life is so wonderful! I love life even more.

Your Health Will Shoot Straight Up...

"Like sparkling cider or vintage Chateauneuf de Rothschild Champagne, older can be BETTER, but ONLY when and IF you know HOW. Save your joints AND your health by becoming an (informed) Primal Dieter as verified and defined by the world's most advanced nutritionist, Aajonus Vonderplanitz, PhD.

Our medical system is now broken and is not likely to be fixed in our lifetime. Hospitals are overflowing with MILLIONS of Madison Avenue-produced SAD [Standard American Diet] eaters and pill-poppers. Alternatively, nothing makes more sense nor is more in keeping with natural laws than the Primal Diet, i.e. EVERY cell in your body is replaced every seven (7) years. That gives you a fair chance to have an entirely new, more youthful and vitally healthy body seven years from today. The instincts of our ancestral 'Cave Men' were verifiable and correct. Today, enlightened Primal Diet adherents everywhere know that the final word in dietary science has now become the hue and cry of 'Back To The Future.' Why not start building your ALL-NEW 'cave man' body today.

Open a bold, all-new chapter in your life. Go to: www.wewant2live.com, go to the http://www.wewant2live.blogspot.com, check out the hundreds of enthusiastic PD user's personal testaments, then just as if you've had an epiphany, buy both of Dr. Vonderplanitz' books and become a PD Newsletter subscriber. Armed with the most accurate, advanced and fact-based dietary truth available anywhere, your health will then from that day forward begin to shoot straight up." Contributed by Mark Ray of Alabama

Person saved by the Primal Diet says so...

2010-04-19T22:51:00.000-07:00

in response to Aajonus' recent UK radio interview. The following was posted to the www.talksport.com site by a listener who lives in South America:
" Aajonus Vonderplanitz unequivocally pointed me toward the means of saving my own life; not to mention restoring my quality of life to that of half this age. In my humble opinion, anyone who would thwart this man or disparage what he has to say becomes an accomplice to cruelty and negligent homicide.

"Modern Medicos" operating with a lopsided "education," written and funded by the drug-pushing big-pharma syndicate, are ill-equipped to honor an oath to do no harm.

The only harm resulting from the diet recommendations of Aajonus Vonderplanitz is to the reputation of doctors whose medical patients refuse to succumb decades beyond being given a few weeks or months to live."

Wisconsin - the dairy state?

2010-04-18T17:32:00.000-07:00

On Monday April 19th 2010, a court case is being held in Viroqua, Wisconsin apparently without a complaint or a crime having been committed. The details are given on the http://rawmilkparty.com/site. Max explains it pretty well so just visit there. To get the full story on raw milk, click here. Full information is in the expert report put together by Aajonus Vonderplanitz and Dr. Douglass.

2010-04-11T10:42:00.000-07:00

On March 29th, federal district court Judge Robert Sweet made history by issuing the first ruling ever that human genes can't be patented. The ruling follows a lawsuit brought by a group of patients and scientists...

Aajonus was blowing the whistle on similar practices back in earlier days, for instance in this early version of the report he authored with Dr. Douglass on Natural Milk. You may search this document for Dr. Samuel Epstein for the discovery related to cancer. The final version of this important document can be obtained by clicking here.

The lawsuit ruling on March 29th was against Myriad Genetics and the University of Utah Research Foundation, which hold the patents on the BRCA genes, as well the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The suit charged that the challenged patents are illegal and restrict both scientific research and patients' access to medical care, and that patents on human genes violate the First Amendment and patent law.

The specific patents challenged are on the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. Mutations along the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are responsible for most cases of hereditary breast and ovarian cancers. Myriad's monopoly on the BRCA genes makes it impossible for women to access alternate tests or get a second opinion about their results—allowing Myriad to charge a high rate for their tests.

The precedent-setting ruling marks the first time a court has found patents on genes unlawful and calls into question the validity of patents now held on approximately 2,000 human genes.

Approximately 20 percent of all human genes are patented, including genes associated with Alzheimer's disease, muscular dystrophy, colon cancer, asthma and many other illnesses.

"This ruling is a victory for the free flow of ideas in scientific research," said first amendment attorney Chris Hansen. "The human genome—like the structure of blood, air or water—was discovered, not created. There is an endless amount of information on genes that begs for further discovery, and gene patents put up unacceptable barriers to the free exchange of ideas." (Data from New York Times Judge Invalidates Human Gene Patent)

2010-03-08T19:44:00.000-08:00

During the year 1997, two important books came out having to do with halting or slowing the aging process. These two books were written for two completely different sets of people and take two completely different approaches to the subject.

"Grow Young With HGH" by Dr. Ronald Klatz deals with anti-aging exclusively. It is a very detailed work, giving a huge amount of simply stated descriptions of the various factors in reversing the aging process, with references to research. By the end of his book, he predicts by 2002 the average life span would be 85 years old. (I think he meant in the USA.) He predicts by 2007 the average age span would be over 100 years old.

The growth hormone enhancement program detailed in Dr. Ron Klatz' book is aimed at individuals who can & would pay the costs of the HGH therapy. The therapy recommended in his book had the cost of about $10,000 - $18,000 per year in 1997 dollars.

We have fallen short of his life expectancy expectations, particularly in the USA. Could it have anything to do with the food we eat?

At the other end of the spectrum, also in 1997, a book came out by an author known at the time by only those who had come into contact with him personally. This book is "We Want To Live: the Primal Diet," by Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz. With this book, evolved a 'grass roots' movement which really started at the time the author - who had himself been through standard medical treatments for cancer in his 20's, then "sent home to die" - brought himself not only back to life, but to increased, vibrant health. (Dr. Vonderplanitz, PhD Nutrition is now 62 years old, having outlived his death sentence by 40 years.)

This book is written in two parts; the first part "Out of the Grips of Disease and Death" is the story of rebuilding the health of his son through raw foods, (after his son's near fatal accident where he was not expected to live the night...). [The first five chapters are free on the site; click here.] The second volume within the same book, is "Healthfully, the facts" in which the author details what happens when foods are cooked or processed, and then covers the anticipated benefits of a balanced raw diet. There are specifics about particular foods, proper preparation of food, as well as remedies for specific physical conditions, and also some opinions (labeled as such) about current medical methodologies.

"We Want To Live: the Primal Diet" was flanked by "The Recipe for Living Without Disease" in 2002, giving much practical information about how to prepare dishes, as well as complementing several points that had been opened in his first book, to say nothing of the many recipes in there that give variety to the consumption of raw foods--making them anything but monotonous!

The reason Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz' books are mentioned on the same page as the work of Dr. Klatz is because both authors deal with anti aging. Dr. Vonderplanitz' results are attained through a balanced regimen of raw foods and without any supplements. Both are worth reading by anyone interested in the benefits of anti-aging.

Raw Milk Public Hearing in Wisconsin on March 10

2010-03-01T21:16:00.000-08:00

Legislators to Hear from Raw Dairy Proponents

by Kimberly Hartke, Publicist for Weston A. Price Foundation

Last week, Lancaster Farming and a number of other papers ran an excellent article, Raw Milk Debate Spills into Capitols and Courts by Michael Crumb, who covers Agriculture for the Associated Press an influential news wire service.

The article states:

Lawmakers in seven states — Georgia, Iowa, Missouri, New Jersey, North Dakota, Wisconsin and Wyoming — have introduced measures this year seeking to change laws governing raw milk. The Falls Church, Va.- based Farmer to Consumer Legal Defense Fund also has filed lawsuits in California, Iowa, Missouri, New York and Wisconsin challenging various aspects of states’ laws regarding raw milk.

I spoke to Pete Kennedy, President of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund (FTCLDF) over the weekend about Wisconsin, in particular. Ever since learning of Scott Trautman’s troubles (click on this link to see a video that will make you cry) with the state regulators, I have been concerned about what is going on there, in particular. I learned from Pete that Wisconsin, by far, has more dairy farms than any other state. And, what happens in Wisconsin, may not stay in Wisconsin, as Pete says “it is a bellwether state” for the work of his FTCLDF around the country.

Me, I am calling it ground zero. An explosion of interest in the raw milk issue has taken place, largely because of what is happening to farmers at the hands of Wisconsin bureaucrats. More citizens are starting to question the merits of outdated laws that would keep them from accessing a wholesome food product, especially when the product comes from your own cow.

Many of you are aware that a landmark decision on cow share programs was just rendered by a justice of the peace in Canada, and we need similar rulings and/or legislation in America.

Here is the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection’s current position on raw milk: http://datcp.state.wi.us/fs/consumerinfo/food/health/raw_milk/index.jsp

DATCP last fall began a series of “enforcement actions” against a number of small farms it suspected of having cow boarding programs or “incidental” sales of raw milk (they interpret incidental to mean more than once to the same person–very strict, indeed). Their dragnet includes demanding business records from Max Kane, a raw dairy activist, Pepin County Family Farm, among others.

Pete Kennedy, Esq. of the Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund has this to say:

DATCP’s position is that if a dairy is unlicensed, milk produced at the dairy cannot leave the farm. This is in conflict with other Wisconsin law that recognizes the right of owners of dairy animals to board those animals on someone else’s property. The agency does not regulate those owning and boarding their own dairy animals to consume raw milk produced by those animals; however, DATCP is claiming that it is illegal for someone who owns a cow and boards the cow on another’s property to obtain raw milk from the cow. This is the agency’s position whether or not the dairy boarding the cow is licensed.

See the rest of his article:
Wisconsin – How DATCP Denies Raw Milk Consumers Their Rights

Here is what the one of the Wisconsin politician’s has to say about the compliance “climate” in his state:

“This extremely detailed request for information from DATCP seems over the top and overly burdensome. As a former police officer, I understand the need to enforce existing laws on the books, but this request seems more like harassment than an effort to enforce existing law.”

Here is the complete press release:

Rep Danou Critical of DATCP’s “Interrogatories” of Pepin County Family Farm

I spoke with Max Kane this morning. He says of the 15,000 dairy farms in his state, only 18 are being targeted by DATCP for suspected raw dealings. He added that the majority of dairy farms in Wisconsin are smaller farms, not factories, with 20, 50, 100 cows. Kane believes that because they are doing traditional dairying, 80-90% of dairy farmers in the state drink their milk raw.

Max pointed out that even if 100 dairy farms in the state were doing a raw milk cow share, they would still represent an insignificant percentage of the overall dairy market.

What You Can Do to Help

A bill that will legalize the sale of raw milk and raw milk products has been introduced in both the Wisconsin General Assembly (AB 628) and the Senate (SB 434).

On March 10, the concerned public is invited to testify before the General Assembly House and Senate committees currently considering raw milk legislation to protect consumer access to the milk of their choosing. Details can be found on Kathryn Pirtle’s blog. Please, if you care about freedom of choice, free trade, and free enterprise, make every effort to be there. If you are a Wisconsin resident and unable to make it, please write a letter to your legislators asking for their support for this bill.

Max Kane told me that the bill is a good bill which would allow Grade A dairy’s to offer raw milk, as long as they have a sign which has the disclaimer: “raw milk doesn’t offer the protection of pasteurization”. Kane would like to see the bill come out of committee, unchanged, for a floor vote.

If you are on facebook, please fan the Wisconsin Alliance for Raw Milk (WARM). You will be able to register your attendance at the public hearing on the event listing on the WARM facebook page. Since registration is not required, and many attendees are not on facebook, we do not expect this tally to accurately reflect turnout at the public hearing.

Kimberly Hartke is the publicist for the Weston A. Price Foundation, and their Campaign for Real Milk. She is a cowshare owner in the state of Virginia, and thanks her state regulators for supporting and helping her farmer establish a state approved herd share program. Raw milk and other dietary and lifestyle changes have helped her overcome a debilitating knee condition and resume a pain free life.

Choosing healthy food - is it our right?

"The average American's preoccupation with 'bread and circuses,' e.g. American Idol, Nascar and football, by comparison makes the fabled Rip Van Winkle seem like an obsessive/compulsive personality. What extreme of intrusion into our daily lives will it take to finally awaken 'sheeple' from their twenty-year coma? Are we too far gone? Will the 'ugly American' finally go the way of the dinosaur by default? The whistleblower video at the following URL richly illustrates that perilous point:

What is the priority of weight loss vs health?

2010-02-10T19:04:00.000-08:00

The Raw Food Diet is inching towards the mainstream as evidenced by AARP and 'Medical News Today' even spelling out some of the benefits and the four broad branches of raw foodism (raw vegetarian/vegan/omnivore/carnivore). The 'raw carnivore' category purportedly eats other foods cooked but all meat is eaten raw. Living in southern California, I have met many raw vegetarians, raw vegans and raw omnivores (such as people on the Primal Diet of Aajonus Vonderplanitz, viewable at www.WeWant2Live.com) but I have never met someone who eats only meat raw and all other foods cooked. I think that category itself is slightly 'cooked' and is theoretical rather than real. I am willing to be enlightened if someone wishes to give me more info at theinterviewguy@gmail.com.
The aspect of the Raw Food Diet that I am addressing today is what priority does one give to having a svelte appearance but health problems vs building health by eliminating bad and dangerous fat while replacing it with health-giving raw fat. As 'weight loss' seems to be THE priority in magazines and tabloids, in top selling books and programs, one would think this question has been answered in favor of looking thin. Vegetarian and vegan raw dieters tend to be thin but not muscular - with exceptions of course. I have interviewed a 20 year raw vegetarian who became a raw omnivore then, while keeping his exact same clothing size, put on a lot of muscular weight. He is now turning 63 years old and is vigorous and looks great. He demonstrates that weight gain is not always a problem nor does one's size necessarily increase along with increased (balanced*) consumption of healthy raw fat on an omnivore type of raw diet.
One case is cited by Aajonus (copied here from the www.WeWant2Live.com site where it appears with the author's permission): "...one thirty-something patient was 280 lbs. and was addicted to ice cream. I trusted her instincts, that she needed the cream. I gave her recipes to make raw ice cream ... Within 5 months she had lost 140 lbs. and the craving for ice cream. After only 4 years on my Primal Diet...she maintained her weight at 125 lbs., without having to think about her weight to this day..." from an interview by Dr. Rae Bradbury. The full article can be found here .
As always, each individual needs to determine his/her own dietary path after sifting through the available information.
*See The Recipe for Living Without Disease, the section on recommendations, to see what a balanced raw omnivore diet is.

Farmer cleared of 'raw milk' charges

2010-01-24T09:53:00.000-08:00

Court gives consumers access to unpasteurized products
Posted: January 21, 2010 8:16 pm Eastern © 2010 WorldNetDaily
Natural foods advocates are claiming a victory today after a court ruling cleared a dairy farmer of a string of charges he faced because of the raw milk he sold to members of a cow-sharing consortium.

According to natural foods blogger Kimberly Hartke, Michael Schmidt was found not guilty in a verdict that took a judge more than two hours to read.

The judge "found that Michael had done his due diligence, developed a proper contract, and that everyone was informed," Hartke reported. "The judge went on to say that Michael met a need for the people."

The case against the Ontario, Canada, dairy farmer hearkens back to similar disputes in the U.S. over the same issue.

WND previously reported when Mennonite farmer Mark Nolt of Maryland had his farm raided by SWAT-type agents and was fined more than $4,000 and had his equipment confiscated for providing raw – or unpasteurized – milk to participants in his program.

In the Ontario case, the ruling from the Newmarket justice of the peace found the cow-sharing operation Schmidt runs out of his Durham farm does not violate milk-marketing and public-health regulations.

The ruling concluded a three-year war over his business and means his milk legally can be distributed to consumers who have purchased "cow shares" in exchange for access to the milk.
[Obtain the final shocking, revealing and detailed 58 page version of Petition and Report in Favor of Raw Milk that was handed to each U.S. Congressperson by Aajonus and some friends]. [to learn who Aajonus is, click here].

Drinking raw milk in Canada is not banned, but other laws require pasteurization on most commercial milk products. According to a report in the Globe and Mail, 10 U.S. states – including California, Maine, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and New Mexico – allow licensed farmers to sell raw milk with a warning label at grocery stores.

In other states, like Canadian provinces with tighter restrictions, consumers often participate in a "cow-sharing" or some other arrangement to gain access to such products...

Cancer answer to person new to Primal Diet

2010-01-10T15:18:00.000-08:00

A gentleman in the Netherlands wrote to Aajonus:
"I've recently bought your latest book and I am pretty happy with that investment. I've been researching diets for many years now and of course a lot of contradicting facts will emerge then, usually I can distill the truth by myself but this time I was hoping you could perhaps elaborate on one of those widespread contradictions. Namely the famous "Gerson diet/therapy". I was hoping you could elaborate on that subject a little and free me of my confusion.. Or why they might both be successful? ... I hope this won't just clear up my confusion but can help everyone else in need who has concern about this.
Thank you very much for your work and time, all the best, P.C."

In my book The Recipe For Living Without Disease, I discuss therapies and their effectiveness, how to distinguish between independent disease-reversals attributed to therapies rather than cyclic phase of the body and therapies that truly help bodies reverse disease.
healthfully,
aajonus

As I was not sure how rapidly Aajonus would be able to respond, I asked my wife Barbara if she had anything to say to this gentleman. Here is what she said:
As fate would have it, I myself am a cancer patient (diagnosed over three years ago with advanced spinal cancer after MRI), and so I have done much research on different alternative cancer therapies, including having read the whole Max Gerson book on the subject. That is no small feat for a layman like myself to read the erudite writings of a German scientist.

It is true that most alternative therapies have their record of successes. I myself chose the Primal Diet. I saw Aajonus Vonderplanitz, who gave me a tailored diet that is based on the basic Primal Diet, which is the subject of both his books: We Want To Live, and The Recipe For Living Without Disease.

To say that I am a nutritional miracle of the Primal Diet, would be an understatement. Dr. Vonderplanitz did also recommend some additional herbs etc., since my type of cancer is very aggressive, and is considered fatal by the medical community. Especially since the cancer was everywhere on the spine and was very far-gone by the time I started the Primal Diet. (I was told by my oncologist that there is no cure for this, and chemo wouldn't cure me, but just "manage my symptoms" to which I replied, 'no thanks'. So I have had no medical therapy at all, not even a biopsy.)

It is the case that Gerson did recommend the juice of raw liver in addition to his mostly fruits/veggies/grains diet, though I believe that he withdrew that recommendation, after discovering the toxic condition of the livers of most animals. He also recommended a Lugol solution, which if memory serves me, is either iron or iodine.

For me, having raw meats, fish and chicken (and oysters and scallops) and also raw liver, does supply me with a good quantity of the vitamins, minerals and enzymes available with these meats. In addition, I find the raw milk and other raw fats to be very nourishing and calming.

Please note that I am not a nutritionist, and so I can only relay my own experiences. I am not qualified to give any other information or advice of any kind. So I hope that answers at least some of your questions. For other questions, please see the two books of Dr. Vonderplanitz, and look in the index for his ideas about cancer, and how to handle that disease.

Sincerely, Barbara Ellingson

Note from webmaster: Aajonus' book We Want To Live: the Primal Diet contains several pages about cancer.

Pro bodybuilder credits the raw food diet...

Sources of good raw food: organic vegetables for less

2010-01-06T23:45:00.000-08:00

On the www.WeWant2Live.com site, there is a page about the global search for good food. View it here. Finding good food is not easy in many parts of the world. Based on this, I did a bit of research and found a surprising source of organic vegetables for less.
How do I afford organic vegetables? Click here at www.organicfoodforless.info for the answer. I am all for the raw food diet - I LOVE it -
however I have to find ways to cut my expenses. I don't want to cut out organic vegetables because first of all I can taste the difference BIG-TIME and secondly I have been warned about what pesticides, insecticides and herbicides do to my health when I ingest them with my food.

I have also been warned about the looming threat of genetically modified food because I live in the USA where agro-business has a giant foothold. A company starting with M and ending with o (3 syllables) is a whole other subject messing with our future; their reach is global, affecting food all over the planet except in rare places where this gets exposed and defeated at least temporarily (click here to see a good example).

Why am I ranting unless I can do something about it? Answer: I CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT and SO CAN YOU! Aajonus has encouraged us all to get a farm. I have found a giant step towards this at very low cost to get
started. I am getting started to learn how to grow an organic vegetable garden and I invite you to do so as well. We can blog about it once we get it going but for now listen to what Jonathan has to say, view his guaranty and give it a shot. The cost is SO minimal compared to what this can do for you.

The Primal Diet by Aajonus Vonderplanitz is on Facebook

A person on the Primal Diet - Pietro is his name - has created an entry on 'Facebook' which I just discovered today. You may visit it at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2300504520&ref=ts and you may send friends there. Right at this moment Aajonus is recuperating (from what you may ask - subscribers on the www.WeWant2Live.com site know the full story - subscribe here) a bit in Asia and also making arrangements to one day have a spa/clinic there. When his 2010 itinerary has been more fully finalized, you will be able to see it both on Facebook and on the www.WeWant2Live.com site.
Pietro is also the person who placed Aajonus in Wikipedia. See his entry at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aajonus_Vonderplanitz

Anti-aging tips from a Primal Diet veteran

2009-12-11T15:18:00.000-08:00

I have been on the Primal Diet for 15 years. I think I am the third or fourth longest person behind Aajonus. I am in my early 70s. I look like I am in my late 40s; very few wrinkles, soft skin.

Each year I see Aajonus, and detoxify about 3%. About half of my body is now detoxed. While I still have a long way to go, I see the clearing of my organs and systems each year. It is uplifting. I am a big time cocunut cream manufacturer and eater. I juice 30 cocunuts a month into coconut cream. See Aajonus' book [The Recipe for Living Without Disease, click here] for a 'how to'. I drink my shake about 5 days a week, 3 tablespoons of coconut cream, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries mixed with 2 fertile raw eggs,some raw butter and raw cream at times.

I have recently experimented with raw hemp seeds. They are raw, not steamed, and seem to act like silium seeds to clean the colon. Aajonus thinks seeds are bad, but for me the seeds help my elimination. It is an experiment. I'll probably stop it, but I"m sending Aajonus a packet of the seeds.

I am in the gym 5 days a week. While Aajonus does not exercise, I think the stronger we are the older we get, the more important it is to stay strong. People get old because they get weak. Arobics are one minute very fast exercise (maybe a stationary bike), one minute a rest in intervals. If someone starts 10 minutes and works up to 20 minutes, this is what animals do. It is what we should also do. I also work out on a heavy punching bag; about the best exercise I can think of. I do the punching in spurts of a minute each, rest a minute.

Over the years, the vast majority of people I have known have tried the diet for time periods and then quit. There are very few long term people I know. I am one of them. If you are on the [Primal] diet, stay on it as a way of life. I take a nap every day because I detox every day. Physically I am in as good shape as I was in my 30s; maybe stronger pound for pound. I have very few wrinkles. I have a 35 year old body walking on the planet as a senior citizen. I"ll take that as a blessing.

Your kitchen and food bag are keys. If you have to go to work, take your food bag daily. If you work and live at home as I do, be thankful your kitchen and fridge are so close.

Some tips: eat raw bone marrow from [a specific organic farmer] [for contact info, click here to buy full report of producers and distributors of good food] once a day. I eat a lot of raw fish, salmon, tuna, swordfish, and combine it with raw ground buffalo or some raw ground Estancia grass fed beef. Make sure your beef and buffalo are grass fed. Be careful about your raw cheese and raw honey. It is an art to get these two truly raw [see Aajonus' report]. The same with any kind of oil. Check the numbers of times the bee harvester blasts his hives with smoke. Try for no smoke if possible. It is hard to find.

See Aajonus once a year. [Click here for info on setting up a consultation with Aajonus]. I learn every time. Keep a file of your eyes on the computer [referring to the iridology photos Aajonus will take during your consult]. Remember this: the game is to prevent poisons from coming into our body, and eliminate the poisons that are there every day. This is not a 2 or 3 year game. It is a lifetime of work. Once on the diet, don't change it for a Big Mac. It is not worth it.
[This person chooses to remain anonymous as he is also a leading business figure].

...a life changing experience...

2009-11-21T13:26:00.000-08:00

Aajonus,

I know you've probably received many "thank you's" over the past few decades. You have changed the lives of tens of thousands of people, all by sharing your personal experiences and acquired expertise. I know this is just another "thank you" card of sorts, but I feel compelled to send it anyway.

10 months ago I had a life-changing experience. At 17 years old, a combination of brittle bones (stress fracture w/ shallow bone lesion, extremely delayed healing), advanced gum disease, hyperventilation syndrome (high adrenaline + not allowed to even walk), etc. had left me flopping around like a fish out of water. I acknowledge this is nothing compared to 2/3 of the people out there who have taken on your diet, and especially insignificant compared to your own past health problems which you had overcome. The only sensible thing I could do was delay treatments for the gum disease, hope my fracture would ever heal, and beg for help and understanding as my breathing outpaced my body involuntarily, causing the most wild array of symptoms I've ever experienced. But 10 months ago, I witnessed something special. At first it did not phase me, but 5, 6 months later, it would give me hope that this whole mess could be not only stopped, but reversed, successfully.

Your moment on the "The Doctors" appalled me at first, as it did most people who saw it. Watching you eat raw meat on stage was comparable to watching Bigfoot go for a dip with Nessie. It was almost mythical in the eyes of the unknowing. I couldn't believe what I had seen. And neither could "The Doctors".

As time went on, I manically looked for answers and alternatives. I came across the messy world of the Weston A. Price Foundation. The WAPF began to shape my beliefs and push me in the right direction. Unfortunately, some of their stuff is all over the place! It took a lot of reading, and even more deciphering. As time passed, though, and I continued my Weston Price directed researching, I was constantly under attack by my own mother for having stopped showering (I had stopped because of "anxieties" that had developed regarding strokes/heart attack triggers thanks to the media). When it reached the point where she got anyone and everyone to agree I would die of infectious disease for not showering, I was forced to pull out my Ace of Spades. I had just come across the site selling your book. I sent her to the web site right away, and I had her call the number on www.WeWant2Live.com. After talking to Jim, she finally stopped the attacks and gave up on her pitiful tangent. At this point, she was so convinced that she had failed, that she went ahead and ordered your book, opening up your world to me.

After finally receiving and thoroughly reading your books, I now have hope for the days ahead. I also now live without the fear of suddenly enduring a heart attack or stroke. Although I haven't fully started the [Primal] diet, my hyperventilation is now minimal and no longer intrusive in my life. I can finally live! And look forward to the future. Again, I want to thank you not only for writing your books, but for putting yourself out there in a setting you knew would be hostile. If you had not taken such a leap of faith, putting your own person at risk, I would not have ended up where I currently am, nor a few others who may have also seen that random show. You really are a wonderful person and a genius in your own right. And even under the limelight of those who attempt to silence you, you are changing the lives of those around you by opening their hearts and minds. I wish you more success. Take care.

Primal Diet Workshop is now broadly available

2009-11-16T22:07:00.000-08:00

Recently released on DVD by Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz PhD. Nutrition, in partnership with the Nutritional Foundation for Well Being, is a seminar he gave at the UCLA Campus in Southern California. This DVD set is for people wanting to discover the health benefits of the Primal Diet (TM), which can help with even stubborn health conditions.
Dr. Vonderplanitz intended this workshop as a one-time event, to help answer people's questions about raw foods, and how and why they work so well to increase one's state of health. It's four hours of workshop, plus a bonus disc (while they last) consisting of Dr. Vonderplanitz's introductory lecture detailing his own story, and how he came to formulate the Primal Diet. This bonus disc also contains five personal stories from people with a variety of health challenges, who have had excellent results with the Primal Diet.

Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz has already written two books: “We Want To Live” and “The Recipe For Living Without Disease.” These can be used as the first steps for people new to the Primal Diet who are seeking better health, or who just want to maintain a state of continuing good health. However, we have also seen the DVD set enjoyed by those just finding out about the raw foods Primal Diet!

Jim Ellingson of the Nutritional Foundation for Well Being, has said “this DVD set took time and care to assemble. It is well-presented, and goes into various topics such as:

the roles of various nutrients and how and why they help us, or hinder us if cooked or processed,

Health benefits of drinking freshly made vegetable juice

2009-11-13T22:42:00.000-08:00

"Some may think that the simple use of a vegetable juice extractor is an 'inconvenience'.

'Inconvenience' depends purely on one's point of view. Since some machines are easier to use than others, 'inconvenience' may be the perception for some of the cheaper, inferior extractors, but repetition, experience, preparation and familiarity quickly reduces overall kitchen time.

The tremendous HEALTH PAYBACK (increased energy, stamina and mental clarity) from habitually drinking fresh raw organic, low-sugar juices will absolutely DWARF any previously-held ideas of 'inconvenience.'

Today, more than ever before, NO kitchen appliance is more critical to optimal health than an efficient, conscientiously applied vegetable juice extractor. A highly-tuned, efficiently functioning immune system depends, and will thrive upon, fresh raw juices. For speed and effectiveness in recouping health, there is absolutely NO substitute.

To say that fresh raw organic juice is vital to well-being is a gross understatement. Here are only a few, albeit GROWING number of known, near-miraculous nutrients that are present in fresh raw organic juices: 1) 100% pure, pesticide and herbicide-free, *bioavailable WATER, 2) full-spectrum 'VITAMINS', 3) BIOFLAVINOIDS, 4) bioavailable MINERALS, 5) PHYTONUTRIENTS, 6) plant STEROLS (essential for normal HORMONE production), and 7) YOUTH-PRESERVING, free radical-scavenging ANTIOXIDANTS.

Pathological (disease) processes, e.g. cancer, generate intra- and extra-cellular acids that are destructive to adjaecent healthy cells. Fresh raw organic juices alkalize and neutralize these death-dealing acids. Because of their wealth of biologically superior nutrients, the habitual intake of fresh juices minimizes cellular aging and maximizes cellular respiration, energy and function.

Optimal health IS wealth, and a well-toned, healthy body is the most tangible form of wealth. Ask the man who has lost his. Sooner or later we learn: without health, nothing else really matters.

In the final analysis, the HABITUAL USE of blenders and vegetable juice extractors is ample PROOF of higher brain function.

A juice extractor is THE quintecenntial super weapon in every family's war to stay well and disease-free in a nightmare world of environmental toxins and chronic disease. Are you (already) disarmed?

A word to the wise is sufficient",

Mark R., Birmingham, Alabama

A New Theory of Disease?)
By Aajonus Vonderplanitz
"Have you noticed that almost every “fresh” fruit and vegetable juice you consume is no longer fresh, does not taste that good, and is absent of most of its nutrient value? They look fresh! But they have been pasteurized or irradiated under the mandates created by health-department officials to eliminate microbes. Health-officials are pushing to mandate that all fresh produce be irradiated in the name of food-safety. [Aajonus goes on in great detail about:] What does that mean to us as consumers?

Freedom to choose healthy food in Ohio

is being encroached upon. Anyone who either a) lives in Ohio, b) eats healthy raw food from farmers in Ohio or c) knows someone who lives in Ohio should follow this link: http://www.ohiolibertycouncil.com/?tag=ohio-issue-2 because there is a very short time before certain issues come up for a vote. Other forces have prepared this and are having it their way until and unless we speak up. Details are on the linked site.

Heated talk about raw milk

2009-10-29T15:23:00.000-07:00

The following rejoinder can be found at http://www.alternet.org/story/143572/got_raw_milk_think_twice_before_you_drink_it?page=1#comments . It is a rejoinder to a bit of journalism at the top of that page. The rejoinder is at the bottom of the page. Several of us who are aware of the benefits of raw milk have commented already - towards the bottom of the page; please add your comments if you like. [If you want to know the untold truths you may order Aajonus expert report, done with Dr. Douglass and available to purchase here.]

"Please review your data and research. Raw milk and fermented raw milk helps autistic kids like no other food on earth. see www.californiarawmilk.org for testimonials from moms that say just that and more. Autistic kids have terrible disbiosis and GUT issues. One of the best food therapies is the reseeding and feeding of the missing gut bacteria. This bacteria comes from raw milk and fermented raw milks, not pastuerized dead milk or dairy products. Just like breast milk...raw milk heals like no other food.

"Also...Organic Pastures Dairy has never ever bottled one ounce of another dairies raw milk...not one drop. This is a blatant lie and an untruth spoken to try and hurt OPDC and miss-lead our consumers.

"I ask you to print a retraction or face a letter from our attorney.

"Lastly....Dr. Mike Payne ( a "GOT MILK" CMAB PhD at UC Davis )has testified under oath that he does not think that raw milk is safe under any conditions. He stood against SB 201 along with CDFA and UC Davis. SB 201 established very strong HACCP type protections for raw milk in CA. SB 201 was vetoed by the governor after UC Davis ( Mike Payne ) and CDFA "back doored" the legislative process. SB 201 had passed both houses of the legislature and was on the governor's desk when it was vetoed...now Mike Payne demands a HACCP program for CA raw milk. This is an outrage and disingenous.... he speaks with forked tongue!!

Raw milk is a choice made by consumers and that is the end of the story. All of the crying and sniveling done by Mike Payne and others is irrelevant. The people drink raw milk and will defend that right at the legislature ( and they have already done so ). When the SB 201 hearings were held last year....the FDA and CDFA did not even show up ( Senator Dean Florez had invited them to please be present ) yet they did not even show.

The 50,000 people that consume raw milk in CA could care less what UC Davis or big ag says about their personal choices. Raw milk in CA must pass all of the standards for pastuerized milk with out being pasteurized. It is clean yet it is bio-diverse, enzyme-rich and very safe.

Jill....how come you never called me for an interview prior to posting this piece. It is poorly researched and is filled with political crap that is unsupported by fact or documented history in the legislature and the courts. Much of what you have said in your article is just not so....it is false.

Please call me anytime...I will give you the facts and you can confirm them.

1-877 RAW MILK....I take calls from all of our consumers everyday and I will take yours also.

Aajonus - a world class nutritionist - visits with friends

2009-10-28T12:45:00.000-07:00

World traveled author and speaker, and originator of the Primal Diet (TM) a raw food diet, will be in Marina Del Rey to visit with friends and talk about how to restore and maintain your health.

From one who has been there, Aajonus Vonderplanitz, PhD., came out of the grips of disease and death, when he was a terminally ill cancer patient in his early 20's. He has outlived his death sentence by 40 years. A very perceptive and experienced nutritional consultant, he is also a hands-on researcher. The fruits of his years in developing the Primal Diet (TM) are his two books: “We Want To Live” and “The Recipe for Living Without Disease.” It is a privilege to have him in Marina Del Rey on Sunday November 1^st, starting at 1:00 p.m.

There will be a pot-luck party from 1:00 to 3:00. Then there will be a discussion period called a “Q&A” period for the next two hours, where Dr. Vonderplanitz will address and answer people's questions. The pot-luck party is free; the discussion period costs $30.00 for anyone wanting to stay and hear more details about the Primal raw foods diet. This is an educational feast for those interested in their own health, and the health of their family and even their friends. Details of the pot-luck party and Q&A are available at www.wewant2live.com. On the left navigation bars, click on “Aajonus' RADIO SHOWS, lectures, workshops, potlucks and more.” You will get an orientation as to what goes on and what to expect in such a setting.

Jim Ellingson, who runs the www.wewant2live.com website has said “This is good people, a good time, and a great way to meet someone important, who has changed the course of many lives for the better.” If you are curious, show up and see for yourself. You might gain an understanding of some of the basics of nutrition, and how to apply the principles of good health in your own life.”

Post script to Aajonus' recent internet radio interview

2009-10-17T13:06:00.000-07:00

Aajonus - the person who developed the Primal Diet - was interviewed last Thursday at http://www.oneradionetwork.com. The interview is there however you need to sign up (at no cost) first.
Aajonus mentioned what he calls his 'product list' which is a 10 page report of producers and distributors in the USA of quality food. Each of these producers and distributors has passed Aajonus' scrutiny to verify that when they say 'unheated' that is really is unheated, similarly that 'no salt added' means exactly that, and so on. This gives contact info such as websites, email addresses, phone numbers and physical addresses. At the time of the interview this report was hidden in the http://www.wewant2live.com site; it is now available either by clicking on the second tab on the left saying 'Aajonus' Report...' or by using this link. I mention this now so that if you wish to find it, you may do so now.
Also, note that Aajonus has an important report at the website http://www.NoToSwineFlu.net.

A hard pill to swallow; a brief itemization of attempted inclusions in an upcoming health care bill

The is a letter from an Indiana physician, who is an
anesthesiologist. His friend went through the Health Care bill line
by line to understand the huge danger this poses to all Americans as
individuals and as a nation. I thought you might like to see the
truth of what this administration intends when the candidate for
president stated that he intended to fundamentally change America.

It is a good time to write or call the representatives!
------------------------------

July 23, 2009

Senator Bayh,

As a practicing physician I have major concerns with the healthcare
bill before Congress. I actually have read the bill and am shocked
by the brazenness of the government's proposed involvement in the
patient physician relationship. The very idea that the government
will dictate and ration patient care is dangerous and certainly not
helpful in designing a healthcare system that works for all. Every
physician I work with agrees that we need to fix our healthcare
system, but the proposed bills currently making their way through
congress will be a disaster if passed.

I ask you respectfully and as a patriotic American to look at the
following troubling lines that I have read in the bill. You cannot
possibly believe that these proposals are in the best interests of
the country and our fellow citizens.

audit books of all employers that self insure!!

Page 239 Line 14-24 HC Bill: Govt will reduce physician services for
Medicaid Seniors, low income and poor are affected.

Page 241 Line 6-8 HC Bill: Doctors, doesn't matter what specialty you

therapy. Which means they will insert Govt into your marriage.

Page 494-498: Govt will cover Mental Health Services including
defining, creating, rationing those services.

Senator, I guarantee that I personally will do everything possible to
inform patients and my fellow physicians about the dangers of the
proposed bills you and your colleagues are debating.

Furthermore, If you vote for a bill that enforces socialized medicine
on the country and destroys the doctor/patient relationship, I will
do everything in my power to make sure you lose your job in the next
election.

Respectfully,

Dear Members,

The Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund (FTCLDF) is considering taking action against the FDA on regulation 1240.61, the prohibition against raw milk for human consumption across state lines.
FTC is looking for plaintiffs, private citizens who wish to be listed in this complaint against the government. Specifically, they are looking for the following:

1. A citizen from state A (where it is illegal to buy/sell raw dairy) goes into state B to buy some raw dairy (where it is legal to buy/sell). Citizen then buys the dairy from a store or farm and takes it back to state A. Examples might be someone living in Reno, Nevada who goes across state lines to purchase raw milk in Reno, California, or someone living in New Jersey who goes to a farm in Pennsylvania to purchase raw milk and then take it home.

2. A citizen from state A (where it is legal to buy/sell) goes into neighboring state B (where it is also legal to buy/sell) and buys raw dairy from a store or farm (the closest store/farm is in state B) and takes it back to state A. For example, someone from Connecticut might go into Massachusetts to purchase raw milk.

3. A citizen from state A is a member of a cooperative located in state B. It is legal in state A to buy/sell but it is illegal to buy/sell in state B. The citizen goes to the cooperative in state B and picks up their raw dairy and takes it back to state A.

4. A citizen from state A is a member of a cooperative located in state B. It is illegal in state A to buy/sell but legal in state B to buy/sell. The citizen goes to the cooperative in state B and picks up their raw dairy and takes it back to state A.

5. A business owner is located in state A (where it is legal to buy/sell) and has customers that come from state B (where it is illegal). Customers from state B buy/sell raw dairy in state A and take it back to state b.

If you fit any of these categories and wish to participate in this lawsuit, please contact the FTCLDF at info@ftcldf.org.

Thank you!

I had arthritis...soreness is gone...

2009-08-12T22:15:00.000-07:00

Here is an excerpt of a long and glowing letter to Aajonus:
[After seeing tremendous results with my wife on the Primal Diet,]"I started to try it too, but only eating raw meats and fatty avocados, tomatoes, etc about three days a week. I also have been doing the moisturizing drink twice a day now for about 3 months. Boy oh boy! I had arthritis hitting my hands and shoulders really bad! I couldn't bend the thumb on my left hand at all. It was spreading to the rest of my fingers in the same hand & starting in my right hand. Mr. Aajonus, I couldn't even clap my hands without them hurting - or shake hands. Within a little over 5 weeks my thumb started to bend again. Within 4 weeks most of the soreness was gone & within a month and a half I could bend my thumb completely, without any soreness. It also left my shoulders too!...

from 'Well Met, Raw Meat: Hoorah for Raw" article

2009-07-27T12:10:00.000-07:00

An article in Edmonton "vueweekly.com magazine, by Vivian Zenari, is quoted in part below. The entire article gives pros and cons and also give names of restaurants in Edmonton at which raw meat is served. Here is the excerpt:

"One sign that Edmontonians are becoming nervier in their food choices is the availability of raw meat dishes in local restaurants.

Why eat raw meat? For some people, it’s simply a matter of taste. Raw meats have a different flavour and texture than cooked meats. Some adventurous eaters simply want to expand their palates to include the raw meat dishes favoured by other cultures. Others choose diets that promote specific environmental and health benefits.

The paleodiet claims that humans are best served by mimicking the diets of their Stone Age ancestors. This means, among other things, that there’s no cooking.

Raw food movements have been around for a while, but most of these are vegetarian. Aajonus Vonderplanitz is a prominent proponent of a paleodiet that he calls the Primal Diet. Unlike vegetarian raw food diets, the Primal Diet includes meat and dairy products, both of which are served raw or unpasteurized.

Vonderplanitz’s The Recipe for Living Without Disease (Carnelian Bay Castle Press, 2002) contains many raw meat recipes for beef, chicken, turkey, lamb and seafood, including baby food recipes. Vonderplanitz’s dietary dictums derive from the health benefits of eating raw food that he claims cured him of a spectrum of diseases including autism and cancer. His advice counters pretty much every mainstream theory..."

Executive Summary of Primal Diet Workshop DVD Set

2009-07-06T20:23:00.000-07:00

I just received the new DVD set of the workshop Aajonus did at the UCLA campus in Los Angeles.

I saw the entire thing--what a treat!

The workshop proper is on 3 discs (4 hours) covering such topics as

elements of diet: proteins/carbhydrates/fats

the functioning of the glands
parasites/bacteria/fungus/virus
detoxification
why foods on the Primal Diet act as they do
basic eating schedules
demo of food preps
and a real explanation of industrial-environmental pollution as the actual cause of disease.
Then there's the final disc (while copies last) consisting of Aajonus' own story (the "intro" lecture) given before the actual workshop. That fourth disc in addition has five testimonials of people who have used the diet with good results. (Even my own testimonial was included as a cancer survivor.)

It's the type of information I could see a number of times over. I gained more from it this time--even though I was present at that original workshop.

It's well presented, and also has its humorous moments--in true "Aajonus" style.

I hope you enjoy yours as I have been enjoying my own set!
