We are not anti-aluminium. But whenever you introduce something into life… particularly something which you expose humans to, you would normally make it safe first. That would be the first thing you do. In fact, for almost everything else you can think of, you have to do that… you have to demonstrate that something is safe first. That has never been necessary for aluminium. It has never been demonstrated that aluminium is safe. No, there’s never been any legislation in order to do that. And this is a historical thing.

The Effects of Biodynamic Farming on the Environment and Food Quality
Posted October 16, 2017
Eating real, nonprocessed food is the key to sustaining good health, but even when it comes to whole food, its quality is largely determined by how it was grown. Certified organic food is recommended to avoid toxic contaminants such as pesticides. But even organic foods may be lacking in important nutrients if grown in nutrient-poor soils. To truly build good topsoil, you have to implement regenerative farming methods, many of which are not automatically required by organic standards. Read more.

Birth Defects and Glyphosate Connection
Posted October 16, 2017
In this video Stephanie describes that she has learned through her research of thousands of documents, that the way glyphosate functions “cuts” off or destroys many different stages of development. Specifically, in the case of anencephaly, glyphosate disrupts the CYP enzymes which normally stop the production of retinoic acid, which then closes the neural tube, allowing the development of the brain. When the neural tube does not close, the brain does not develop. Therefore the baby is born without a brain and dies within a few hours or days. Read more.
