Must Read Vitamins and Minerals To Be Banned

From time to time, an issue comes along that is so important that we have to devote a newsletter to it, in preference to promoting our products for our short term interest. This is one of those times.

The banning, within months of something as innocuous as vitamins and minerals. Seems incredible doesn't it? Would and could the EU really ban most vitamins and minerals from being available in meaningful dosages? Is something as surreal as this really happening? Unfortunately the answer is yes, and it is very likely under the soon to be finalised EU regulations, and things are not looking good at all.

All this despite the fact that there was not even one death caused by a dietary supplement in 2008, according to the most recent information collected by the U.S. National Poison Data System. The new 174-page annual report of the American Association of Poison Control Centers, published in the journal Clinical Toxicology, shows zero deaths from multiple vitamins; zero deaths from any of the B vitamins; zero deaths from vitamins A, C, D, or E; and zero deaths from any other vitamin.

(It is conservatively estimated that around 200,000 Americans and 40,000 Brits die every year from the use of correctly prescribed conventional medications).

Yet the EU do not seem to be interested in these facts. Read full newsletter here:

Announcement: Green PolkaDot Box Launches its Organic Online Savings Club

Green PolkaDot Box

Let’s face it; most of us want to eat healthier. But it seems almost impossible for a couple of fundamental reasons: no convenient market that carries organic fruits, veggies, supplements, and packaged and prepared foods; or, maybe more importantly in the age of the internet, organic foods are simply less affordable than conventional foods.

Here at Global Healing Center we are constantly searching for ways to provide our customers with information to help them achieve optimal health. Our most recent discovery is Green PolkaDot Box— an online buyers’ club that sells many organic foods, natural nutritional supplements, and other organic products at prices lower than MSRP that ship directly to any zip code in the US, no trip to the market necessary.

Natural News labels Green PolkaDot Box as the most promising company to compete with Whole Foods.

Green PolkaDot Box is an online buyers’ club/membership store, similar to Sam’s Club and Costco, for those who are familiar with them. You must purchase an annual membership, but the small fee usually pays for itself fairly quick with the savings, depending on how much and how often you buy. Once you have a membership, you can start saving up to 60% immediately and, as an added bonus, orders over $150 are shipped free in the United States.

Club Membership ($50/yr)- Entitles you to 12 months of shopping privileges, the free shipping bonus on orders over $150 and access to their Learning Center.

Rewards Membership ($125/yr)- Includes all of the above, plus it allows you to earn rewards points- 1 point for every dollar spent. These points can be used to purchase products from Green PolkaDot Box. This membership level also works like a multi-tier affiliate program, earning you points for purchases made by other people that you refer to the program.

We encourage our readers to buy from their local farmers as much as they can to support the farmers’ economy and reduce the overall carbon footprint; remember, all of the extra energy consumed in transportation takes its toll on the planet. When buying local is not an option, Green PolkaDot Box will soon offer farm-to-consumer fresh produce that will ship from America’s organic farms directly to its members using an innovative chilling technique to keep it fresh. Earn rewards points for fresh organic fruits and veggies delivered right to your door!

Save up to 60% off organic and non-GMO products. Some of these products are currently being sold at Whole Foods at a higher price.Free shipping on orders over $150, anywhere in the US.Earn rewards points for your purchases and your referrals’ purchases that you can use to get free products.Saves you time when doing your grocery shopping.

Mommy Bloggers Take Aim At New Diapers

Best diapers for babies

There is an ever growing number of mothers, or “mommy bloggers” voicing their opinions. One of the topics this group has discussed is the possible side effects of a new type of slim-profile Pampers brand diaper manufactured by Proctor & Gamble.

The new diapers utilize an advanced form of what the company has dubbed “dry max technology.” This is basically just a marketing catch phrase for super absorbent synthetic polymers that are able to absorb significantly more fluid than their more natural counterparts.

Proctor & Gamble claim the new technology makes the new diapers 20 percent less bulky than previous Pampers, and reduces the product’s environmental footprint by a considerable amount.  However, many moms are more concerned with the impact the new diapers have on their baby’s skin than the environment.

Concerns

A number of mommy bloggers immediately reported seeing severe skin irritation soon after trying the new Pampers. In some cases, this apparently went well beyond the normal limits of diaper rash, leading one mother to refer to it as a “chemical burn”.  In an effort to better understand the cause of the irritation, one popular blogger examined the inside of one of the new diapers and compared it to an older one. They found that the new Pampers no longer use a mesh liner to hold in the absorbent material, (presumably because the new material expands less) as well as new fragrances and possibly a new form of adhesive binding.

Something Else to Consider

The resulting rashes have proven difficult to consistently reproduce and some experts are still skeptical that the updated diapers are the actual cause of the abnormally pronounced irritation. Specifically, they cite the absence of any truly new chemicals in the product in addition to the rigorous tests all such products undergo prior to their release. There is a fairly strong possibility of irritation any time changes are made to the materials that come into contact with human skin. Especially baby skin. This applies to everything from a new pair of socks to changes in detergent.  

What Can I Do to Prevent This at Home?

Regardless of whether or not these new diapers are the cause of the irritation, they are not the best option for young skin or the environment. Nearly all big-name diapers use similar technology and produce considerable amounts of trash. Switching to cloth or all-natural organic diapers is a great way to reduce the chemicals your child’s most sensitive areas are exposed to. Still, it’s no guarantee that your young one will never experience a case of diaper rash. I recommend natural remedies for diaper rash.
