(NaturalNews) The Consumer Wellness Center, led by Executive Director Mike Adams (editor of NaturalNews) has announced its third grant in its Nutrition Grant Program. The Consumer Wellness Center (CWC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to promoting nutrition education. The Executive Director position is a non-paid position.
Our Nutrition Grant Program awards $1,000 grants to individuals or institutions dedicated to the promotion and sharing of nutritional knowledge among children, expectant mothers and other important groups.
The grants are awarded based on the number of people that can be positively impacted, the detail of the grant proposal and the enthusiasm and commitment of the teacher or administrator using the funds. Each award recipient is asked to report the results of the grant program to the CWC. Our intention is to then post these nutrition "success stories" on NaturalNews.com so that the most effective strategies of nutrition education can be shared with the world.
The Consumer Wellness Center grant will enable the Family Care Network to plant three garden plots (completely free of pesticides and chemicals) and to purchase seeds, compost, seed starter kids, garden tools and hoses to support the garden. After a season of growing, this will allow them to put fresh produce into their food bank.
This food bank produce will then be distributed to over 160 families and 50 senior citizens throughout the summer and fall months of 2009, bringing them fresh produce instead of the typical canned and processed foods donated to food banks.
This effort is also educational: Recipients of the program will also be taught how to grow a portion of their own food, and a series of nutritional classes for kids, families and seniors will be made available to participants. These classes will teach nutritional strategies for specific age groups, cooking tips and how to stretch the family food budget.
Family Care Network has committed to reporting back to the Consumer Wellness Center with pictures of class attendees, garden plots and recipients of the fresh produce. They've also promised testimonies regarding the impact of these events on local families.
"We are ecstatic to partner with such a dedicated, compassionate supporter of humanitarian food aid to economically disadvantaged families," said Mike Adams, executive director of the Consumer Wellness Center and editor of NaturalNews. "This program exemplifies the kind of grassroots, person-to-person fresh food programs that provide the nutritional foundations for a healthier, happier population and a better world," Adams said.
Her local communities, Wexford and Missaukee Counties, were hit hard by economic woes. The closing of factories and small businesses has left many families jobless and hungry.
"I was seeing all kinds of ailments from respiratory to diabetes and even cancer," Kristina told NaturalNews. "In the children, I saw chronic allergies, ADD/ADHD and autism. All these conditions can be improved with proper nutrition. Knowing what I do about food, it became increasingly difficult to "bless" those in need with food that I knew would harm them. So, I did something about it."
Between May and October of last year (2008), fresh organic produce from Kristina's efforts were distributed to over 50 families. The foods included carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, basil, lettuce, watermelon, squash & spinach -- all 100% free of chemicals! That success will be expanded in 2009 with the help of CWC grant money and, of course, seeds, soil and sunlight from Mother Nature.
Congratulations to Kristina Wood of the Family Care Network for earning our third $1,000 nutrition grant from the Consumer Wellness Center.

Background on Kristina Wood and the Family Care Network
Starting as a volunteer in the local food pantry housed in a church in Manton, Kristina soon found herself deeply concerned about the lack of nutritional knowledge among the poor coming to the food pantry for assistance.Her local communities, Wexford and Missaukee Counties, were hit hard by economic woes. The closing of factories and small businesses has left many families jobless and hungry.
"I was seeing all kinds of ailments from respiratory to diabetes and even cancer," Kristina told NaturalNews. "In the children, I saw chronic allergies, ADD/ADHD and autism.

About the author:Mike Adams (aka the "Health Ranger") is a best selling author (#1 best selling science book on Amazon.com) and a globally recognized scientific researcher in clean foods. He serves as the founding editor of NaturalNews.com and the lab science director of an internationally accredited (ISO 17025) analytical laboratory known as CWC Labs. There, he was awarded a Certificate of Excellence for achieving extremely high accuracy in the analysis of toxic elements in unknown water samples using ICP-MS instrumentation. Adams is also highly proficient in running liquid chromatography, ion chromatography and mass spectrometry time-of-flight analytical instrumentation.
Adams is a person of color whose ancestors include Africans and Native American Indians. He's also of Native American heritage, which he credits as inspiring his "Health Ranger" passion for protecting life and nature against the destruction caused by chemicals, heavy metals and other forms of pollution.
Adams is the founder and publisher of the open source science journal Natural Science Journal, the author of numerous peer-reviewed science papers published by the journal, and the author of the world's first book that published ICP-MS heavy metals analysis results for foods, dietary supplements, pet food, spices and fast food. The book is entitled Food Forensics and is published by BenBella Books.
In his laboratory research, Adams has made numerous food safety breakthroughs such as revealing rice protein products imported from Asia to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and tungsten. Adams was the first food science researcher to document high levels of tungsten in superfoods. He also discovered over 11 ppm lead in imported mangosteen powder, and led an industry-wide voluntary agreement to limit heavy metals in rice protein products.
In addition to his lab work, Adams is also the (non-paid) executive director of the non-profit Consumer Wellness Center (CWC), an organization that redirects 100% of its donations receipts to grant programs that teach children and women how to grow their own food or vastly improve their nutrition. Through the non-profit CWC, Adams also launched Nutrition Rescue, a program that donates essential vitamins to people in need. Click here to see some of the CWC success stories.
With a background in science and software technology, Adams is the original founder of the email newsletter technology company known as Arial Software. Using his technical experience combined with his love for natural health, Adams developed and deployed the content management system currently driving NaturalNews.com. He also engineered the high-level statistical algorithms that power SCIENCE.naturalnews.com, a massive research resource featuring over 10 million scientific studies.
Adams is well known for his incredibly popular consumer activism video blowing the lid on fake blueberries used throughout the food supply. He has also exposed "strange fibers" found in Chicken McNuggets, fake academic credentials of so-called health "gurus," dangerous "detox" products imported as battery acid and sold for oral consumption, fake acai berry scams, the California raw milk raids, the vaccine research fraud revealed by industry whistleblowers and many other topics.
Adams has also helped defend the rights of home gardeners and protect the medical freedom rights of parents. Adams is widely recognized to have made a remarkable global impact on issues like GMOs, vaccines, nutrition therapies, human consciousness.
In addition to his activism, Adams is an accomplished musician who has released over a dozen popular songs covering a variety of activism topics.
