USDA Certified Organic is the only seal completely regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The "all natural" term is only regulated on meat and poultry products. Aside from that, any company can use this label without it really meaning anything, as it has no standard definition.
Processed foods labeled with "all natural" can consist of GMOs, pesticides...

Heyes, June 12 2014 (NaturalNews) Millions upon millions of fish and sea creatures are dying around the world, but it's all very mysterious, as there does not appear to be much explanation for it, logical or otherwise.
When more than six tons of fish died recently in Marina del Ray, it made headlines all over the U.S., according to the blog The Mind Unleashed. But in truth, what happened off the coast of southern California has been replicated all around the globe. In fact, in 2014, as you will see below, mass fish...

A waxy substance, cholesterol is found in the lipids of blood. The body uses it to build new cells, but having high levels of cholesterol can lead to conditions that threaten good health. Because high cholesterol can cause fatty deposits to build up in the blood vessels, the heart might not get the amount of oxygen-rich blood that it needs to function properly. This can lead to an increased risk of heart attack. Similarly, a reduction...

Huff, June 12 2014 (NaturalNews) The largest natural and organic retailer in the U.S. has taken a bold move that could make fruits and vegetables safer for everyone. Thanks in large part to the dedicated efforts of just one conscious man from North Carolina, Whole Foods Market has agreed to stop supplying "conventional" produce grown in fields containing so-called biosolids, or the waste residue leftover from sewage processing plants.
Believe it or not, conventional produce in the U.S. can be legally grown in soils...

Wells, June 6 2014 (NaturalNews) What is it about gluten and GMO that have the masses asking questions? What's the latest debate that is constantly engaged on the best health websites in the world? How could it be that 18 million folks just can't figure out their internal rotting-food problem? Who can't figure out their inflammation, headaches and IBS, that leads to ulcers, prostate cancer, bladder cancer and pancreatic cancer, when 90% of the food on the shelves of America sticks in your gut, for days, and weeks and...

How about depression, migraines or inflammation? If so, you may have a problem with an internal mold infection.
Associated with an astounding number of health issues, mold toxicity is a common -- although often hidden -- source of declining health.

Heyes, June 12 2014 (NaturalNews) Big agribusiness and biotech companies don't want it, but increasingly Americans - and people in countries all over the world - want food products that contain genetically modified ingredients to be labeled as such.
Calls for GMO labeling come amid a backdrop of consumer regulations that already require all other foods and food products - even bottles of water that only contain "water" - to be labeled. Yet the federal government has taken no action on the issue, even as some states...

In addition, according to the Centers for Disease Control, "One out of every two American adults aged 30 and over has periodontal disease."

Heyes, June 12 2014 (NaturalNews) Conventional commercial agricultural methods which involve poisoning of the soil, monocultural practices, repeated plowing of fields and removal of trees are being blamed for returning "Dust Bowl" conditions across much of the Midwest and Southwest.
As noted by The Economic Collapse Blog, early explorers of North America noted that, when traveling through the region that would eventually become North Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, they referred to it as "the Great American Desert,"...

Wells, June 12 2014 (NaturalNews) You could call fracking the earth's combo "vaccine" chock full of 40,000 gallons of toxic chemicals that induce a violent reaction, but instead of a human being going into anaphylactic shock from an unnatural and forced immune response, the earth goes into its own "seizure" -- and it's not pretty.

Recently, researchers have found that, in some cases, drinking alcohol can have real health benefits that are difficult to replicate in such a relaxing manner elsewhere. While health experts have, for years, been racking up evidence that alcohol is not good for the functioning of the kidneys, today they might have some good news for those people who like to have a glass of wine to relax in the...

Heyes, June 12 2014 (NaturalNews) With President Obama's direction and approval, the Environmental Protection Agency has just issued new rules supposedly aimed at reducing "harmful emissions" but which critics say will do nothing but force a dramatic increase in energy prices and an overall decline in production of food and other commodities.

As far back as the 1930s, doctors first recognized the link between a vitamin D deficiency and the skeletal disease called rickets. Rickets causes a softening of the bones and teeth. Even if someone's diet has adequate levels of calcium, without enough vitamin D to properly control calcium and phosphate levels in the blood stream, demineralization of the bones can take place. The symptoms of rickets include bowed legs, bone pain, dental problems...

Devon, Staff Writer, June 11 2014 (NaturalNews) For Los Angeles, California, May 2014 was a month of heightened seismic activity, boasting five earthquakes that measured greater than 4.0 on the Richter scale. The sudden increase in seismic activity on the West Coast hasn't been witnessed since 1994 -- the year that 53 quakes rumbled through the area -- the year of the deadly Northridge earthquake.

With the recent recognition that trans fats are unhealthy, educated consumers are using more of this traditional fat. Butter, particularly pastured, organic butter, is high in many essential nutrients. Contrary to popular belief, the saturated fats in butter do not contribute to heart disease. Butter offers protective powers against several illnesses. Sweden, in fact, recently changed their country's health guidelines to include...

But the average garden hose is teeming with chemicals like lead and bisphenol A (BPA), according to new research, and these toxins could be making you and your family sick.
