 "Executives of these food giants buy influence by contributing to politicians' election campaign funds and offering countless other forms of gratuities. As the documentary Eating points out, "There's a politician in your kitchen, and he's already decided what you'll be eating tonight!"- Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "There is simply not yet a big enough market for the food giants to commercialize raw food products, and dedicated live food entrepreneurs are few. However, thanks to the Internet, raw food authors, teachers and a few openly raw celebrities, the word is now spreading at a faster pace. If you are fortunate in your travels, there may be fresh juice or smoothie stands for you to order a drink, even if nonorganic, but never count on it. Never leave the house without an emergency snack to tide you over until you can reach a supermarket or other produce vendor." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "If people were to switch from SAD foods to live foods, most medical professionals, food giants, restaurant owners, pharmacists, drug salespeople, people employed by the American Cancer Society and other such organizations searching for drug cures, herbicide and pesticide producers and even many veterinarians and alternative health care professionals would all have to change or radically revamp their careers. This would upset the employee ladder from janitors to executives in every country!" - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "The Corruption of Our Food Supply through Processing, Refining and Preserving Victoria BidWell describes how the food processing industry denatures our food: The food giants employ three artificial techniques to create the thousands of designer foods placed before us in today's supermarkets: heat processing, refining and preserving. These techniques render whole, fresh, raw foods unrecognizable when competing for shelf space against fresh produce, our natural diet: • Heat processing (cooking) destroys certain vitamins, minerals and all of the enzymes." - Susan E.

 "Now that corporate food giants such as Dole, General Mills, Kraft, and ConAgra have gotten into the "organic" game, they have, as part of an industry-wide group, lobbied hard to change the rules about what it means to be "organic." If they win at getting synthetic chemicals like ripening agents and thickeners added to the list of allowable ingredients, or even genetic engineering to pass muster, then "organic" will move further and further away from "pure."
In 1996, the two houses of Congress unanimously enacted the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA)."- Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.) "Our diets and health are unfortunately largely controlled by three giant sectors and driving forces of the economy: food and agricultural corporations, including processed food giants; pharmaceutical companies; and the chemical and manufacturing industry, which aims to create unnaturally occurring products that may be superior in some ways to naturally occurring ones, yet incredibly harmful to humans in other ways." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.) |
 "Without your knowledge or consent, they control what you eat, when you eat, how much you eat, even the way you think of food.
The food giants have done everything they can to keep you from finding out.
They've warped your food consciousness to make you a willing participant in your own demise.
Paul A. Stitt Fighting the food giants very cheap
....food is cheaper. In 1950 U.S. families spent 21 % of their disposable personal income on food. In 2000 it was 11%.

| "He has allowed food giants to make unsubstantiated health claims. He has also been vocal in criticizing Canada, Germany, and other countries for providing their citizens with controlled drug prices. Such criticism does not bode well for his vision for American citizens. Whose interest is served by not controlling the cost of drugs?
Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters." - Brent Hoadley, Ph.D., Too Profitable to Cure (Get the book.) |
 "Another similarity with aspartame is the way MSG was allowed onto the market without adequate safety checks and most of the later studies into its health effects have been conducted - as usual - by 'researchers' linked to the food giants. The food corporations that profit massively from MSG say that it's safe. Phew, that's okay, then, you had me worried for a second.
I mentioned in an earlier chapter how vaccines contain mercury. Even in small amounts this, yet again, is known to damage DNA and impair its ability to repair itself."- David Icke, Icke David, Infinite Love Is the Only Truth: Everything Else Is Illusion (Get the book.) |
