NaturalNews Store announces holiday season specials on salt lamps, EMF meters, superfoods and more

(NaturalNews) There’s a lot of gift-giving going on this holiday season, but much of it is unfortunately founded in toxic gifts that actually cause cancer. Perfumes and colognes, for example, contain over 20 cancer-causing chemicals. Holiday meats and sausages almost always contain a chemical that causes cancer and diabetes. See the complete write-up of this in an accompanying article here on NaturalNews. If you’re giving gifts this holiday season, why not consider healthy gifts that people can enjoy without getting cancer or diabetes? Give the gift of happiness and health, not cancer and death. (Kinda makes sense, eh?) To help in this effort, we’ve put an solid selection of health-promoting gifts together for you at the NaturalNews Store. Click here to see the specials. These gifts include: • Himalayan Salt Lamps – an incredibly practical gift because they function both as a lamp and an emergency supply of full-spectrum salt that you can actually eat! On sale right now at the best price you’ll find on the ‘net. • Tri-Field Meters – they show you the electromagnetic pollution impacting your health. Turn this on near your circuit breaker box and you’ll be astonished. Or check the EMF pollution levels of your microwave, your coffee maker, your computer and your television. (Or check out your cell phone, if you dare…) • B-12 Energy Patches – using the high-end form of B-12 (methylcobalamin), these patches support the skin absorption of this critical nutrient that’s missing from the diets of many people, especially those who eat less meat. • Organic Sun-Cured Vanilla Bean Powder – this is the vanilla bean powder I use, and it’s so potent and unique that just 1/16th of a teaspoon will drastically improve the taste of almost any fruit smoothie or superfood blend. This is the real stuff, and we’ve got it at a far lower price than you’ll find anywhere else. • Himalayan Crystal Salt – a smart barter item and a thoughtful gift.

Sesame Street rolls out superfood muppets sponsored by Merck

(NaturalNews) Now even Sesame Street is jumping on the superfoods bandwagon by introducing four new muppets called “the Superfoods.” They’re being rolled out next week under the claim that Sesame Street is tackling “food insecurity” by teaching kids how to eat well on a budget. There’s just one problem with all this: Three out of the four new superfood muppets aren’t superfoods. The new superfood muppets are a banana , a block of cheese , a whole wheat hamburger bun and a stalk of broccoli . Gee, if this is Sesame Street’s idea of superfoods, I’d hate to see what they think might quality as junk food! (For the record, broccoli is a superfood, but cheese certainly isn’t. And a wheat bread bun isn’t either. Bananas are a healthy food but not usually considered a super food.) Not coincidentally, this muppet selection looks a lot like the USDA’s food pyramid which has nothing to do with promoting health and everything to do with promoting the financial interests of the meat, dairy and grain producers. But hey, at least Sesame Street didn’t feature any processed meat in their superfood muppets. Not yet anyway. Merck’s influence It turns out that a lot of this may have been influenced by Merck. Yes, the Big Pharma giant that makes vaccines, cholesterol drugs and other pharmaceuticals. The Merck Company Foundation sponsored this project, and Richard T. Clark, the CEO and chairman of Merck, is going to be present in Washington D.C. to help announce these new muppets. So let’s see: We have the CEO of one of the largest drug companies in the world telling a non-profit children’s education show how to teach nutrition to kids… What’s wrong with this picture? We already know that drug companies like Merck profit from sickness and disease , not health and nutrition. There is absolutely no financial incentive for Merck or any other drug company to teach children how to stay healthy. Perhaps that’s why all the real superfoods are missing from this Sesame Street lineup: Where are the berries , sprouts and fresh vegetables juices? Where’s the “spirulina” muppet? Because, let’s face it: To call a whole-wheat sandwich bun and a block of cheese “superfoods” is beyond ignorant. It’s moronic. It’s laughable. What this new “superfood” muppet lineup really shows is that Sesame Street has sold out to corporate interests and is now teaching children how to stay trapped in a system of sick care that generates profits for the pharmaceutical industry. Consuming cheese and sandwich buns is not going to make kids healthy — it’s going to promote heart disease, diabetes and obesity. A lot of the so-called “wheat bread” sold in grocery stores, by the way, is sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup. Check the labels yourself. The sad, sorry state of nutritional knowledge at Sesame Street Over the years, Sesame Street has played an important and valuable role in society by teaching children basic academics in a fun, playful way. Heck, I remember watching the show from time to time as a kid, and it was briefly entertaining. But it is precisely because of Sesame Street’s huge reach that it has an obligation to get its facts straight on superfoods . To promote cheese and sandwich bread as “superfood” is truly laughable, and it only demonstrates to the world that Sesame Street needs a little education itself. We need a nutritional Sesame Street for the Sesame Street executives, it seems, who are as ignorant about nutrition as a four-year-old who hasn’t yet learned how to count to ten. Even worse, to partner with a drug company in the launch of such an endeavor is inherently unwise. Merck is the very same company that can’t wait to vaccinate all the children watching Sesame Street and hit them with high-priced pharmaceuticals when they grow up and have more serious diseases because they’ve been living on cheese, processed foods and animal products. To think that you can come up with a sound nutrition education program by partnering with a drug company is pure madness. Yet that’s what Sesame Street has done here. Maybe they should have realized that if you want to teach nutrition to children, you should talk to a nutritionist and not a vaccine manufacturer. What’s next with all this? Will Bert and Ernie go get seasonal flu shots manufactured by Merck and then tell the kids that vaccines are good nutrition, too? Read the official Sesame Street propaganda (press release) at: http://www.sesameworkshop.org/initiatives/food Why the NaturalNews message is healthier than Sesame Street My role as NaturalNews editor is not merely to criticize what’s wrong with things but to offer better examples of how to do things right. Two years ago, I created the Super Food Bowl educational video that featured superfoods squaring off against junk foods in a football game. That video was designed to teach children the health benefits of real superfoods in a fun, entertaining way. You can watch that video right now at: http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=092500F34147F5817BDB4B8B557FECB5 It’s a far more nutritious approach than the new “superfood muppets” from Sesame Street. It’s based on real nutritional science rather than the influence of a large drug company like Merck. Keep this in mind when you think about Sesame Street from now on: This is a children’s educational organization that, in my opinion, has partnered with one of the most evil corporations on the planet . Maybe next they’ll teach kids about farming with a program created by Monsanto, too. It really makes me question the Sesame Street agenda. Are they trying to teach children, or are they working more to manipulate them to become future customers of the sick-care giants like drug companies and health insurance companies? These new Sesame Street “superfood muppets” are an insult to the intention and genius of the original Sesame Street creators who only sought to help improve the lives of children. But today, with sellout programs like these fraudulent superfood muppets, it seems as if the Sesame Street agenda has shifted to promoting the interests of big business at the expense of childrens’ health.

Vitamineral Green superfood from Healthforce Nutritionals packs high-density nutrition that goes beyond organic

(NaturalNews) For those who are already familiar with Vitamineral Green from Healthforce Nutritionals , you’ll be more than excited to hear about this special. If you don’t know what Vitamineral Green is, it’s one of the most respected superfood formulations in the natural health community — it’s used by vegetarians, vegans, athletes and everyday people to provide a wave of incredibly dense nutrition in a convenient superfood powder format. (See the complete ingredients list below.) Vitamineral Green is formulated by Jameth Sheridan, a naturopath and the founder of Healthforce Nutritionals (www.Healthforce.com) There’s even more good news: Vitamineral Green is known as a higher-priced superfood (because it’s made with very high-end ingredients), and it normally sells for $54.95 per bottle as you can see right here on the Healthforce website: http://healthforce.com/shop?page=shop.product_details&flypage=garden_flypage.tpl&product_id=6&category_id=1 But through a very special arrangement coordinated through the combination of Matt Monarch (the Raw Food World), NaturalNews.com and Healthforce Nutritionals, we are able to offer a large quantity of Vitamineral Green (500 grams) with a small bottle of Vitamineral Earth (150 grams) together for a price so low that we can’t even print it in this article. Click here to see the discount price at the NaturalNews Store . (This NaturalNews discount is only good while supplies last.) A rare price break on a legendary superfood product As our raw food readers already well know, it is extremely rare to be able to get Vitamineral Green at a discount. This is not a superfood that competes on price. It’s the “extreme high end” of superfoods — it’s “beyond organic” in the sense that its ingredients are sourced and processed in a way that goes beyond organic standards (http://healthforce.com/truganic). It’s also packed in glass bottles , not plastic. All the serious superfood vegans I know are devout consumers of Vitamineral Green. I use it myself from time to time, too (I like to mix it with other superfoods to sweeten up the taste a bit). Here’s what’s in it: Vitamineral Green ingredients Version 4.8: 100% Superfoods – 100% TruGanic From the Land • Nettle Leaf • Shavegrass (Horsetail) • Alfalfa Leaf Juice • Dandelion Leaf Juice • Barley Grass Juice • Oat Grass Juice • Barley Grass • Wheat Grass • American Basil • Holy Basil/Tulsi • Moringa Leaf • Yacon Leaf • Nopal Cactus • Chickweed • Ginger Root • Broccoli Juice • Kale Juice • Spinach Juice • Parsley Juice • Carob Pod • Amla Berry From the Waters • Spirulina • Chlorella From the Oceans (Mineralization) • Icelandic Kelp • Dulse • Nori • Alaria • Bladderwrack Enzymes (optimum absorption +) • Protease • Amylase • Lipase • Cellulase • Bromelain • Papain • Alpha-Galactosidase Probiotics: HealthForce NSO Blend: • Atherobactor agilis • A. citreus • A. globiformis • A. leuteus • A. simplex • Aceinetobactor calcoacetius • Azotobacter calcoaceticus • Az. chroococcum • Az. paspali • AZosirillum brasiliense • Azo. lipoferum • Bacillus brevis • B. marcerans • B. pumilus • Brev stationis • Kurthia zipffi • Phanerochaete chrysosporium • Streptomyces fradiae • S. cellulosae • S. griseoflavus HealthForce Lactobacillus Blend: • Lactobacillus plantarum • Lactobacillus bulgaricus • Lactobacillius paracasei • Lactobacillus rhamnosus • Lactobacillus salivarius • Streptococcus thermophilus Energetics • Shilajit + • Magnetic • Homeopathic • Energetic and Vibrational energies Vitamineral Green + Vitamineral Earth Jameth Sheridan has also given us permission to offer Vitamineral Green with a full-sized Vitamineral Earth at a very special price that isn’t normally offered anywhere else. Click here to see the price in our NaturalNews Store. For those of you who are already Vitamineral Green fans, this is a good time to stock up as we probably won’t be offered this deep a discount for another 12 months. If you’ve never tried Vitamineral Green before, you may only want to get one bottle first so you can try the taste. The taste is quite intense, and it’s not formulated with any sweeteners. So I would NOT recommend buying more than one bottle if you’re new to this brand. But if you already know Vitamineral Green, and you’ve experienced it before, then this is a great time to buy multiple bottles because you won’t see a price like this again for quite some time. I’m really happy to be able to bring this discount to you, and I thank both Matt Monarch and Jameth Sheridan for being able to make this happen. It’s a great value for NaturalNews readers that I hope you take advantage of. Thank you in advance for your support of the NaturalNews Store, too.

Tocotrienols (rice bran solubles) deliver a powerhouse of plant-based nutrition

(NaturalNews) Among all the superfoods available today, some are quite well known such as acai and spirulina, but others are lesser known even though they offer remarkable nutritional density. One of these “little known” superfoods is rice bran solubles — it’s a super delicious and highly nutritious superfood that delivers a powerhouse of health supporting nutrients. But to understand why it’s so nutritious, you have to first check out the structure of a grain of rice. A grain of rice has three parts: There’s the endosperm , or the energy compartment which is made mostly of carbohydrates. This is what gives the rice seed its calories to grow into a plant. Then there’s the rice germ . This contains the miniature plant embryo which sprouts a tiny plant when the seed germinates. Finally, there’s the rice bran . This is the real nutritional powerhouse of the rice grain — the bran contains proteins, minerals, vitamins and healthy plant-based fats. This is the “nutritional storehouse” of the rice grain, providing the most important nutrients the sprouting rice plant needs to power its immune system, root system, circulatory system and other important plant metabolic functions. See more about rice in this short animation: http://www.riceromp.com/animations/ricecomposition.cfm Commercial rice lacks its natural nutrition White rice lacks the germ and the bran. It’s all removed from commercial white rice because the germ and bran portions of rice typically don’t have much of a shelf life. The potent oils in the rice bran, in particular, tend to go rancid quickly because they are real food, and real food usually has a short expiration. But through a technological innovation that first surfaced in the 1990′s, one pioneering company was able to stabilize rice bran , giving it a long shelf life while maintaining its powerful nutrients. This gave rise to a new superfood called “stabilized rice bran” or, more commonly, “soluble rice bran.” This soluble rice bran superfood contains naturally occurring Vitamin A (Beta Carotene), Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine), Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Folic Acid, Biotin, Choline, and Inositol. It also contains naturally occurring Calcium, Potassium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Iron, Zinc, Manganese, Copper, Iodine and other trace minerals. It does not contain the carbohydrate portion of rice, nor does it contain the fiber. This is basically the nutrients of the rice grain without the carbs and the fiber. Note carefully that these nutrients are not added to the product. These are the natural plant-based vitamins and minerals in their original plant form . And most nutritionists agree that plant-based forms of vitamin and minerals are biologically superior to synthetic forms or rock-based forms (many calcium supplements, for example, are just ground-up sea shells… no wonder those are bad for you!). An amazing taste with a thousand uses in your favorite meals and recipes Beyond the stunning nutritional composition, Rice Bran Solubles taste fantastic. It’s like eating a rich, nutty protein mix of some kind, sort of like a whole-grain Chex cereal but even better. You can literally eat it with a spoon right out of the container. Or you can blend it with any smoothie, sprinkle it on yogurt or natural ice cream, toss a spoon into a bowl of cereal, add it to any bread, crust or pastries, etc. Obviously, it’s better not to cook this because you’ll lose some of the nutrition, but you can cook it if you want (although I prefer to eat it uncooked). People who are into superfoods know all about this product, which is also called Tocotrienols , referring to the full-spectrum E vitamins it delivers. This is one of the most impressive natural sources of high-density superfood nutrition. Combine it with things like spirulina, acai berries and chia seeds, and you have an amazing assortment of nutrients for supporting your good health. Remember, too, a lot of superfoods are rich in plant pigments and vitamin C, but very few superfoods deliver a high amount of vitamin E. Tocotrienols contains full-spectrum vitamin E as well as over 100 additional antioxidants. It’s a powerhouse of real nutrition derived from real food. An amazing discount for NaturalNews readers Everybody who’s into superfoods wants some Tocotrienols. It’s one of the best sources of nutrients like natural vitamin E that aren’t commonly found in other superfoods. (Berries, for example, contain virtually no vitamin E.) If you Google the term “rice bran solubles” right now, you’ll find that companies are selling it online for over $21 for 6.4 ounces. That’s a price of $3.28 per ounce . Because part of my mission with these product review stories is to get you these valuable products at really good prices, we’ve put together a deal so incredibly good, you won’t want to miss it: Right now at the NaturalNews Store, you can get 16 ounces of our Tocotrienols (rice bran solubles) for just $24.95 . If you do the math, that’s $1.56 per ounce , or nearly 54% less than the price you’d find elsewhere. You simply won’t find a better price on this anywhere. We’ve heavily discounted this in order to make it more affordable for NaturalNews readers, and especially to help people try this if they’ve never experienced Tocotrienols before. The price gets even better with a 3-pack: Just $1.40 per ounce when you buy three. Click here to see these specials at the NaturalNews Store right now.
