One of the basic concepts of natural therapy can be expressed in that old saying, “You are what you eat”.

​To a large extent, our diet has determined the diseases we suffer from.
Over the past 100 to 150 years our basic diet has changed drastically. We have gone from fresh, wholesome, unrefined, unsprayed food to the opposite.

 
Today we know more about vitamins, minerals and nutrition in general then ever before, but at the same time there are various elements of the media and medical community that want to keep everyone in the dark about the true role and power that a proper, clean diet and effective supplementation play in our health and life.

​As many who study natural health, nutrition and those who subscribe to various newsletters, the pharmaceutical companies are a major front in the war against nutrition. That's because it's been known since the turn of the last century that the cause of nearly all degenerative diseases as well as the weakening of the immune system that makes one susceptible to communicable diseases are deficiencies of various key nutrients or total lack of them altogether.

What is a nervous breakdown? It’s not a disease, as some materialists would like people to think. It’s not a physical ailment like a broken leg or something. A nervous breakdown happens when a person cannot handle the burden, anxieties and pressure of his or her life.
 
A person breaks down when he realizes that the material shelter where he has been trying to take refuge has all fallen through. The person experiences, “I can’t find happiness in this anymore. I can’t find meaning in any of these things. None of these things are satisfying though I’ve tried to squeeze out pleasure from them. I just can’t find shelter in them anymore”. He experiences such a heavy burden and pressure due to his futile attempts to find satisfaction in either material things, relationships, possessions, endeavors, ambitions or goals.

The term originates in the systematic psychological manipulation of a victim by her husband in Patrick Hamilton’s 1938 stage play Gas Light, and the film adaptations released in 1940 and 1944.

​In the story the husband attempts to convince his wife and others that she is insane by manipulating small elements of their environment and insisting that she is mistaken, remembering things incorrectly, or delusional when she points out these changes. The play's title alludes to how the abusive husband slowly dims the gas lights in their home, while pretending nothing has changed, in an effort to make his wife doubt her own perceptions. The wife repeatedly asks her husband to confirm her perceptions about the dimming lights, but in defiance of reality, he keeps insisting that the lights are the same and instead it is she who is going insane. 

 
 
When I was a kid, most of my time was spent pretending. Pretending to be Superman, pretending to be a cowboy, pretending to be a hero and, at times, pretending to be a doctor. As I grew up I realized that pretend time was growing to a close and reality time was getting closer and closer at hand. Little did I realize that, for some, pretend is a way of life. How so, you ask? The following are some of my perceptions and observations into the ongoing world of pretend.

​A while ago, USA Today had been running an interesting series of articles on our ridiculous health care system or should I say our “disease care” system. While more and more Americans concerned with the increasing costs of the U.S. health care system, hawked as the best medical care in the world, the problem is that those that cannot afford it are steadily increasing.
 
A poll found that eighty percent of those that responded were not thrilled with the $2.2 TRILLION, or over $7,500 a person, being spent on health care in the U.S. and that medical company profits or malpractice lawsuits were the biggest causes of the spending. Actually, of the $2.2 trillion, 660 billion is spent on hospital care, 462 billion is spent on doctors, and 220 billion on drugs. (See end for complete breakdown)

We all know that RoundUp is Bayer/Monsanto’s cash crop.
 
By now we fortunately know is that ALL GMOs are designed to withstand enormous quantities of RoundUp.
 
 Why? So Bayer/Monsanto can spray the hell out of all GMOs, killing all weeds and subsequently sickening and poisoning the “tricks” (us) thereby greatly benefitting Big Pharma ( the Pimp) and the medical profession (the Hookers).
 
Before getting into what I want to get into let me inform you of something. In Hawaii, the Senate Agriculture Committee was going to put forth a bill requiring the mandatory labeling of GMO foods.
