ALARMING NEWS!!!

The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) of the US claims the 1ppm of melamine in U.S. infant formula is just a “contamination”. It is from the manufacturing machines or food packaging equipment. And yet the Associated Press is reporting that the expected level of melamine contamination from manufacturing equipment is only 15 ppb (parts per billion).

But the FDA’s own tests on Mead Johnson infant formula reveal it to contain 245 ppb, or 1600% more than what would be expected to exists due to melamine contamination from manufacturing equipment.

ARE ALL COWS CONTAMINATED?
One of the theories behind the contamination is the possibility that the US cows are eating feeds from China which contain melamine and thereby producing melamine-laden milk. If this were true- that would mean that every dairy product has melamine!

Can you identify the herbal ingredients on display below?  Most of it was in the soup I had to drink last night and although I can’t say that I feel better, I certainly don’t feel worse.  As with most of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), its efficacy is not immediately seen and sometimes is not visible to the eye altogether.  For example, if you get cupping done where excess “air” is sucked out of your system, you really can’t see how it has done you any good.

What a roller coaster nightmare the global financial world has been.  It’s enough to make anyone sick and that’s precisely what I have been for the past 3 weeks with a flu I can’t seem to shake off.  No amount of natural or man-made pharmaceuticals seem to be helping this time around.  I think it’s the mental stress and anguish that’s getting to me.
