Well done Calvin , nice find .

Although this clip came out nearly a year ago , where is the mainstream media on this ?? Where is the story on 4 corners or today tonight , a current affair etc ??
This is just further proof to any one still grunting like a farm animal that the msm is not there to inform you !

Thank you again Calvin .

My grannie used to put frozen sparrows in the mornings soup (we had to pick them off ground while going to early Mass) - I reakon she used to overstate their nutritional content as well coz there was only about a quarter inch of flesh on them if that. But didnt taste too bad.

Everyone knows that these kinds of processed foods are bad for you Axiom. Most milk has come from cows which have been pumped full of growth hormones, and this is causing some cancers in women whose diets contain a lot of milk, especially in the Scandinavian countries. But don't hold your breath thinking the milk producers will include that bit of info in their commercials.

Everyone doesn't know j2g , not even close , otherwise supermarkets wouldn't still be thriving businesses !
And how many knew iron filings were in cereal ? ?

But you're right about the conspicuous lack of air time given to all these important facts about our food .

I didn't know about the iron filings, however, your logic that people don't know is wrong. Some people buy only organic vegitables at supermarkets. Others, like myself who know that processed foods are bad, still buy them because we are addicted to the sugar and chemicals, (ie.) msg, etc. But we still know, although we simply choose not to change our purchasing behaviour despite this knowledge

That is true ,some are aware but addicted .
And yes there is a fair bit of media time devoted to the healthy food message .
But surely there should be more ( in proportion to its obvious importance) news or debate on substances like msg , milk ,aspartame , colour102, and IRON FILINGS !!

Health insurance companies invest billions in fast food chains


(NaturalNews) Did you ever wonder how health insurance companies drum up future business? It's easy: Just invest in companies whose products cause chronic degenerative disease, driving people towards more health care needs and therefore more health insurance.

And that's exactly what the health insurance industry is doing. A new article published in the American Journal of Public Health reveals that U.S. and Canadian health insurance giants own nearly $2 billion worth of stock in fast food giants like McDonald's, Burger King, KFC, Taco Bell and others.

So profits made by health insurance companies are reinvested in industries that make people sick and diseased, bringing them back to buy more health insurance down the road. It's a pretty clever business model for an industry that seems focused on the almighty dollar and obviously has no concern whatsoever for the actual health status of its customers. If anything, these health insurance companies hope you get sicker!

Corporate conspiracy to keep you sick and diseased
These unholy alliances among corporate giants that conspire to keep you sick are more common than you think. In addition to health insurance companies owning billions of dollars worth of shares in fast food companies, pharmaceutical companies now own major shares of popular vitamin companies -- the ones that produce the cheap, useless chemical vitamin supplements sold at places like Wal-Mart and Walgreens.

Investors in the mainstream media are some of the same companies that own medical imaging equipment manufactures that produce mammography machines and CT scans, too. And did you know that the American Dental Association owns patents on materials used in mercury fillings, which is one of the reasons why the ADA continues to push for installing toxic mercury into the mouths of children? (http://pnwf.org/Dentistry_Mercury_C...)

This ownership of fast food companies by the health insurance corporate giants demonstrates a deeply disturbing fact about the entire sick-care industry: It really is about profits rather than health. If they can make an extra buck feeding you the very junk foods that are causing cancer, heart disease, diabetes and strokes, they will absolutely jump on that profit bandwagon no matter what the cost in human lives, pain and suffering.

The bigger picture: What are YOU invested in?
There's an even bigger story to all this, by the way. While it seems altogether contradictory that health insurance companies would invest in fast food chains, the disturbing truth is that many institutional investors hold billions of dollars worth of shares in pharmaceutical companies. Your very own mutual funds may hold large positions in Big Pharma. Even your employer may be investing your pension funds in vaccine-pushing corporations.

Right now might be a good time, in fact, to review whatever investments you might have and make sure you're not inadvertently investing in the types of corporations whose actions you oppose.

Personally, I don't have a single dime invested in any drug company, oil company, junk food company or fast food chain. I prefer to focus on "green" investments that support the things I believe in: Renewable energy, nutrition companies, etc. Did you know that Cyanotech, the Hawaii company that makes spirulina, is a public company? You can actually own stock in Cyanotech (I don't, but only because I don't want a conflict of interest when I write about them). Vitacost.com is also a public company, as are many companies in the natural products space.

If you own mutual fund shares, you might be surprised to find out where your money is being invested. You actually have to research it a bit to find out where these mutual funds redirect your money. Most of them invest in Big Pharma in one way or another.

Remember that every dollar pumped into the pharmaceutical industry is another dollar that will be used to further expand the medical enslavement of the population through vaccines, medications, chemotherapy and other dangerous chemical treatments. The best way to protect the health of future generations is to starve Big Pharma of investment dollars and revenue by refusing to buy their products or stock shares.

You guys do realize that their is nutritional benefits to eating iron, right? That is why it is added.

As for your last post Axiom- do you know that most insurance companies make little to no money off premiums? Most of their money comes from investing part of the pool of money before they must payout for coverage. The pool of money is always kept there and they make sure they can cover liabilities. It is very similar to the way commercial banks work.

Calvin

Iron when it occurs naturally might be beneficial to a person, but it is definitely not healthy to add iron fillings to a food for this purpose. My Hayek, please show me one natural, raw, unprocessed food that is naturally magnetic.

Axiom

You do realize it depends which form the iron takes,don't you ?

so does that make it ok to make hypocritical investments ?

First off, those iron filings would react with stomach acid and most likely degrade into some other iron form. As for magneticity, Iron is naturally magnetic as is cobalt which is found in the body and B12 too.

Do you seriously think it just sits there? It reacts with stomach acid and breaks down into other molecules.

How is it hypocritical to make money in a business? Most insurance companies set aside what would be needed in case of a health crisis and the pool of money is always kept at the same level as all premiums paid in minus what is paid out. They just use some of that money while it is sitting there and invest it to make money- essentially what a bank does as well. How exactly do you find that hypocritical?

Just2Good

I can't agree.

I saw a kid swallow a penny once when I was young. Pennies are made of copper. The penny left his system (undigested) a few days later. It didn't degrade into a useful mineral source that his body could utilize.

A penny is different that iron filings. Not only is it bigger in size, but it is made of copper and zinc, both which are different elements and as such have different properties than iron. Most people's stomach acid would most likely break down the iron compound in the filings to Fe2+.
