Why We Must Occupy Our Food Supply


America (and her children) have never been fatter or sicker and we can't seem to figure out why. Meanwhile, we have chemists in white lab coats "farming" America's food supply that is nutritionally void, highly processed, genetically modified, antibiotic laced, and steroid pumped.

I had no idea at age 38 when I experienced breast cancer that what I was eating could possibly make me sick! Changed my diet and have been healthy ever since - and that was over 11 years ago.

One more thought: If America's food supply is so terrific and will feed the world why are most of our "foods", seeds, dairy etc. banned from other countries?

Here's a sign in a drug store in Hawaii above the beef jerky:

Beef Jerky made from U.S. Beef will not be allowed into Japan.
(In both Japanese and English.)
Hmmm....Wonder what's in that beef to ban it in Japan?
Best health always!

Are gluten-free products a waste for those without celiac disease?


I too had no idea what I was eating could possibly make me sick until I hadcancer at age 38 and then WOW do I see the light.

Why do we need yet another study to tell a mother whose child had such severe diarrhea for years that when she stopped feeding her child wheat and he started gaining weight, stopped vomiting, etc. that's it all in her head?

"The Unhealthy Truth" by Robyn O'Brien - is a fantastic book that's exposing the "allergy" vs. "sensitivity" vs. "disease" drama and focuses on the genetically engineered franken food (GMO)
that in now the common staple to the America diet and is wrecking havoc on our
physical as well as mental health.

Do you need to worry about lead in your lipstick?

What's also alarming is that Burt's Bees is owned by Cholorox. In my humble opinion lead limits in our liptick is just another way to get rid of the unwanted chemicals that are a by product of some manufacturing process.

All done with those products listed by the FDA. After I had cancer at age 38, I'm a nut about what I put on my fork and in my mouth...now it's the same for on my lips!

Take Dansai water as another example, my 24 year old niece won't drink it because it has "added minerals". We think it's by products from manufacturing Coca Cola.
What are the "added minerals?*
A chemical cocktail leftover from manufacturing Coke?
It's so strange, America (and her children) have never been sicker, fatter or more complacent and we can't seem to figure out why.

*Coca-Cola ... adds trace amounts of minerals, including magnesium sulfate (Epsom salt), potassium chloride and table salt (sodium chloride).

10 Rules to Eat Safely for Life (and What to Remove From Your Kitchen)



Thank you for another terrific article Dr. Hyman. I had no idea that the American/W­estern diet was feeding and fueling our diseases until I was diagnosed and treated for breast cancer at the age of 38 - changed what's on my plate and have been healthy ever since - and that was over 10 years ago.

It's so strange - America (and her children) have never been fatter or sicker and we can't seem to figure out why. Meanwhile, we have individual­s in white lab coats farming our food.

I'd also add to your list food labeled "NON GMO verified" since geneticall­y modified foods don't need to be labeled. And of course... no growth hormones, steroids, antibiotic­s, or dairy in my diet ever...(tu­mor was hormone receptive.­)

I basically follow a diet you listed above with the best, organic, fresh produce and "real" food we can find in the Northeast. And yes, it might cost a bit more - what's the price of one's health? So, for me and my family - it's the quality of our food - not the quantity.
