I Did Not Know..Nor do I Care

I will feature articles about the human anatomy. I don't know if it's of value or funny.
I ran across this one on a public forum in my private chat. Of course I was over hearing my own family, so it couldn't be so bad right? Girls! Scheesh!  With that I salute you! For with out you I would not be here! Is is funny? I don't know, I have audio problems, but I saw the "E" , I copied, pasted and ran. Ba!

Occasionally I return to an article to make sure the site has not been  removed or retracted, only to find it has been redirected. With that said, now this becomes just a "strange" site though informative none the less!

D'YOU EAT?

Dear Thomas,

Earlier this morning, we emailed requesting that you call your senators and ask them 
to support critical food-safety legislation when they return to Washington.

The subject line in that message said that the vote was in two weeks. 
However senators will be voting on this legislation NEXT WEEK
 – just days from now.

We apologize for the error and multiple emails. But we know how important your call 
is and want to make sure you have the correct information.

We don't have much time. Please make your call today! 
Even if you are calling after business hours, leaving a message with the 
talking points below will make a big difference.

Sincerely,
The Make Our Food Safe Coalition

Dear Thomas, Four people in Texas have recently paid the ultimate price  for a meal – with their lives.  An outbreak of illness caused by Listeria in bagged celery killed them  and sickened ten people in recent months. And over the weekend,  the nation's biggest egg seller recalled 288,000 eggs after a test confirmed  Salmonella at its supplier's farm. As you read this, your senators are preparing to head back  to Washington, DC where they will cast their vote on critical food -safety legislation.  We told you previously thatSenate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV)  filed a cloture motion which is a way to end the delay tactics and allow  a bill to move forward for a final vote. Now, we need your help to make  sure your senators vote "Yes!" on this important public health measure. CALL 1-(877) 481-9966 and tell your senators: 1. Your name and where you live 2. You VOTE and food safety is important to you and 3. Please Vote "YES" for cloture to move S. 510, the FDA...  Food Safety Modernization Act forward and "YES"  for its final passage. The coming weeks presents the final opportunity to pass strong  food-safety reform legislation in this Congress.  Your senators are home right now and we're asking you to make a toll-free call to their district office and deliver a simple message  to support the cloture motion to end delays and debate, and vote to give the bill final passage. CALL 1-(877) 481-9966 NOW! Have you been keeping track of all the food recalls and outbreaks this year?  We have – and it's not pretty. The evidence keeps piling up that something has to be done to fix our broken food-safety system. Let's start now. Deliver your message TODAY! Thank you for standing up for safe food. Sincerely, The "Make Our Food Safe" coalition      (AND ME!! TL ) P.S. TIMESAVER TIP: When you call the hotline, you can bypass  the message at any point by pressing "1" to be connected directly  to your senator's office. Our line can only connect to one office per call.  To speak to your other senator, please hang up and call right back and  you will be patched through to that office. The MakeOurFoodSafe.org  Campaign is a coalition of public health organizations, consumer organizations, and groups representing the families of victims of foodborne illness.

...BUT IF I DID.... !!!!

    Don't get me wrong! It is important that we support the use of lipstick! Lipstick is GOOD!
As a survivor of cancer, I support "WINGS" and ANY and ALL support groups related to this
menacing monster. Some of us are "accomplished" some have only "just" started our lives,
some of us are in the middle of raising our children, (and THAT'S not easy), and then some of us 
were ready to "throw in the towel" when everything seemed so bleak! So when you bounce back from the "BRINK", you stand for a cause! It's the least you can do for Man AND Womankind!
NOW CHECK OUT YOUR LIPSTICK!
      
I don't know! You tell me!
Read what it says about this on snopes.com.  In the Search box type in "Lead in Lipstick" then click on the first entry they bring up on this subject.  It says that e-mails with this claim have been circulating the net since 2003 and that basically it is false.  The writer does a lot of investigation with the government regulators and the lipstick manufacturers and concludes that there is little or no risk of cancer through the use of lipstick in the U.S.A. There are strict guidelines on the amount of lead used in any product, although none specifically for lipstick.

LIPSTICK INFORMATION:

Something to consider 
Next time you go shopping for
Lipstick ......

This comes from someone 
Who works in the breast cancer unit at 

Mt. Sinai Hospital , in Toronto .  From: Dr. Nahid Neman   

If there is a female you care anything about,   

Share this with her. I did!!!!!   
I am also sharing this with the males on my e-mail list, 
Because they need to tell the females  
THEY care about as well!   
Recently a lipstick brand called 'Red Earth' 
Decreased their prices from
$67 to $9.90.   

It contained lead.  

Lead is a chemical which causes cancer.  

The lipstick brands that contain lead are:  

CHRISTIAN DIOR 

LANCÔME  

CLINIQUE  

Y.S.L  

ESTEE LAUDER  

SHISEIDO     

RED EARTH (Lip Gloss)  

CHANEL (Lip Conditioner)   


MARKET AMERICA-MOTNES LIPSTICK.  

The higher the lead content, 

The greater the chance of causing cancer

After doing a test on lipsticks,  

It was found that the Y.S.L. Lipstick
Contained the most amount of lead.  

Watch out for those lipsticks
Which are supposed to stay longer.  

If your lipstick stays longer, it is

Because of the higher content of lead.   


Here is the test you can do yourself:

 

1. Put some lipstick on your hand.  
2. Use a Gold ring to scratch on the lipstick. 
   3. If the lipstick colour changes to black, Then you know the lipstick contains lead
Please send this information to all your girlfriends, 
Wives and female family members. 

This information is being circulated at 
Walter Reed Army Medical Centre  
Dioxin Carcinogens cause cancer,
Especially breast cancer  

  

Support Shawna Hernandez in the 2010 Walk to Cure Diabetes

Greetings!


I'm writing to you to ask for your support in a very special cause.

This year, I'll be taking part in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's Walk to Cure Diabetes along with a half-million other walkers across the country. Our goal: To raise $90 million to help fund research for a cure for type 1 diabetes and its complications.

Type 1, or juvenile, diabetes, is a devastating, often deadly disease that affects millions of people--a large and growing percentage of them children.

Many people think type 1 diabetes can be controlled by insulin. While insulin does keep people with type 1 diabetes alive, it is NOT a cure. Aside from the daily challenges of living with type 1 diabetes, there are many severe, often fatal, complications caused by the disease.

That's the bad news... and yes, it's pretty bad.

The good news, though, is that JDRF is making steady progress toward a cure. In fact, JDRF funding and leadership is associated with most major scientific breakthroughs in type 1 diabetes research to date. And JDRF funds more type 1 research than any other charity worldwide.

I'm writing to ask for your support because now more than ever, EACH of us can be a part of bringing about a cure. Each of us can make a real difference

Won't you please give to JDRF as generously as you're able?

Together, we can make the cure a reality.

Thank you,

Shawna Hernandez

ABOUT FRUIT

It's long but very informative � We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it and just popping it into our mouths. It's not as easy as you think. It's important to know how and when to eat. � What is the correct way of eating fruits? � IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUITS AFTER YOUR MEALS! * FRUITS SHOULD BE EATEN ON AN EMPTY STOMACH. � If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities. � FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD. Let's say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so. � In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil.... � So please eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your meals! You have heard people complaining - every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet etc - actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat! � Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst, and dark circles under the eyes all these will NOT happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach. � There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter.  If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight. � When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only fresh fruit juice, NOT from the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins. � But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice. If you should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it. You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body. Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look! � KIWI: Tiny but mighty. This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, vitamin E & fiber. Its vitamin C content is twice that of an orange. � APPLE: An apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhances the activity of vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke. � STRAWBERRY: Protective Fruit. Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits & protect the body from cancer-causing, blood vessel-clogging free radicals. � ORANGE : Sweetest medicine. Taking 2-4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as lessens the risk of colon cancer. � WATERMELON: Coolest thirst quencher.. Composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione, which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene - the cancer fighting oxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are vitamin C & Potassium. � GUAVA & PAPAYA: Top awards for vitamin C. They are the clear winners for their high vitamin C content. Guava is also rich in fiber, which helps prevent constipation. Papaya is rich in carotene; this is good for your eyes. � Drinking Cold water after a meal = Cancer! Can u believe this?? For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal. � A serious note about heart attacks HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE': (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!) Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting.. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack . Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.. Sixty percent of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive... � A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.  Read this....It could save your life!! I AM NOT GOING TO ARGUE WITH THIS! ARE YOU?
