Meat is crucial for feeding the planet, leading scientists have said, as they warned it is not more environmentally-friendly to go vegan.

Experts from the University of Edinburgh and Scotland's Rural College said farmers were increasingly feeling demonised by the unsupported 'meat is evil' claims being promoted by environmental lobbyists.

Speaking at a panel in central London, they argued that meat was critical for the physical and mental health of children, particularly in developing countries, and said that moving away from livestock farming would not improve land use.

Nursery goes entirely vegan, but not everyone is happy

A nursery has sparked outrage by becoming one of the first in Britain to introduce a 100% vegan menu for children.

From January, Jigsaw Day Nurseries, in Chester, will no longer be serving meat, fish, eggs or dairy products to the 260 children they care for. Instead the children, all aged between 0 and four, will eat the likes of lentil-based 'Shepherdless Pie', coconut rice pudding desserts, plant-based yogurts and cereal served with soy or oat milk.

Staff say the switch has been made with 'the children and the planet's future in mind', but some parents now claim their meat-eating kids are being discriminated against.

Comment: This is the danger of the vegan pusch propaganda in all its glory. The smug bureaucrats telling everyone they're 'saving the planet' while starving the children. At the end of the day, it appears that the nursery is a private business and can therefore feed the children whatever it likes. Parents who object only have the recourse to take their children elsewhere. They'd be wise to do so.

The world's first sperm bank for HIV-positive donors has launched in New Zealand, aiming to fight stigma surrounding the illness.

Three HIV-positive men have already signed up to donate - all of whom have an undetectable viral load.

This means virus levels in their blood are so low that HIV cannot be transmitted through sex or childbirth.

Flashback Facebook bans all content on vaccine awareness, including ingredients, injury and industry collusion

Just as we warned would happen, the tech giants are now moving aggressively to ban all speech that contradicts whatever "official" position is decided to be "the truth" by the corrupt establishment. This week, Facebook announced it would block all content on Facebook that questions the official dogma on vaccines, which falsely insists that vaccines have never harmed anyone (a hilarious lie), that vaccines contain only safe ingredients (a blatant deception) and that vaccines always work on everyone (another laughable lie).

Facebook is achieving this by labeling vaccine awareness information "misinformation" or "hoaxes." At the top of the list is the assertion that vaccines are linked to autism — something that even the CDC's own top whistleblower scientist reveals to be true, yet the vaccine industry claims it's all a hoax (in order to cover of the crimes of medical violence against children that are being committed by the vaccine pushers).

Notably, tech giants are now banning vaccine truth information by labeling it "misinformation" in exactly the same way they ban conservative content by labeling it "hate speech." They simply invent a false category to justify the ban, all while crushing the free speech of users (and ultimately leading to the vaccine maiming of millions of innocent children). Under this twisted system of speech policing, they can ban any content they don't like by simply labeling it "false" or "hateful," even if it's true and important.

More polio cases are now caused by vaccine than by wild virus


The New York Times
Mon, 25 Nov 2019 00:01 UTC
polio vaccine
Four African countries have reported new cases of polio linked to the oral vaccine, as global health numbers show there are now more children being paralyzed by viruses originating in vaccines than in the wild.

In a report late last week, the World Health Organization and partners noted nine new polio cases caused by the vaccine in Nigeria, Congo, Central African Republic and Angola. Seven countries elsewhere in Africa have similar outbreaks and cases have been reported in Asia. Of the two countries where polio remains endemic, Afghanistan and Pakistan, vaccine-linked cases have been identified in Pakistan.

In rare cases, the live virus in oral polio vaccine can mutate into a form capable of sparking new outbreaks. All the current vaccine-derived polio cases have been sparked by a Type 2 virus contained in the vaccine. Type 2 wild virus was eliminated years ago.

Comment: New thinking is needed? How about thinking about how one can 'eradicate polio' if the vaccine is spreading it? How about rethinking the goal of immunizing 95% of the population when the vaccine is causing outbreaks? Perhaps rather than 'new thinking' they need to set the goal of simply thinking. The bar is clearly too high.

Cargill's GMO stevia hoodwinks consumers

GMO stevia
The international food conglomerate Cargill is ramping up commercial-scale production of its genetically engineered sweetener, EverSweet, in a new $50 million production facility that began operating this week in Blair, Nebraska. The plant will "be producing enough EverSweet to sweeten many millions of bottles/cans of soft drinks or servings of yogurt each month," according to a Cargill spokesman.

Cargill is marketing its new stevia substitute as "non-artificial." What does that mean? Consumers who click on the link provided in the press release will not get a straight answer. The web page twists itself in knots trying to describe the new process, which involves genetically engineering yeast to convert sugar molecules into a substance that mimics the taste of stevia, as a "centuries old technique" — without once mentioning genetic engineering or the genetic modified organisms (GMOs) used to make the product.

Cargill told the Star Tribune it does not market EverSweet as "natural" - so "non-artificial" it is. The subterfuge doesn't end there.

Comment: Any 'natural' product Cargill promotes is highly suspect!
Food giant British Sugar has withdrawn an advertisement extolling the natural virtues of its sugar substitute after a member of the public complained that it was misleading.

The controversy is the latest to surround Truvia, which was developed by Coca-Cola and Cargill and contains extract from the stevia leaf - although this accounts for less than 1% of the finished product.
  • GMO derived erythritol, the main ingredient in Truvia, found to be a potent insecticide Erythritol is often indirectly derived from genetically modified corn, by the way. Cargill was forced to settle a class action lawsuit last year (2) for labeling Truvia "natural" when it's actually made from a fermentation process whereby yeast are fed GM corn maltodextrin. Cargill plays word games with this process, insisting that "erythritol is not derived from corn or dextrose feedstock; it is derived from the yeast organism."Yeah, okay, but the yeast are fed GMOs. So they're playing mind games with their explanations.

Not all LDL is the same: Current cholesterol guidelines are 'dangerously misleading'


Sci Tech Daily

cholesterol arteries graphic
Ohio University research shows 'bad cholesterol' is only as unhealthy as its composition. Research demonstrates that current guidelines for diagnosing risk are 'dangerously misleading.'

New research at Ohio University shows that a particular subclass of low-density lipoproteins (LDL), also known as "bad cholesterol," is a much better predictor of potential heart attacks than the mere presence of LDL, which is incorrect more often than not.

The presence of LDL is considered an indicator for the potential risk of heart attacks or coronary disease, but studies have shown that about 75 percent of patients who suffer heart attacks have cholesterol levels that don't indicate a high risk for such an event. Research by Ohio University Distinguished Professor Dr. Tadeusz Malinski and researcher Dr. Jiangzhou Hua in Ohio University's Nanomedical Research Laboratory shows that of the three subclasses that comprise LDL, only one causes significant damage.

Comment: The case against the cholesterol narrative has always been a strong one, and it's surprising (not really) that the narrative persists to this day. The evidence keeps mounting that the established medical approach to cholesterol management makes no sense, yet doctors continue to get as many of their patients on cholesterol lowering medications as possible. The day the whole thing comes crashing down will be a good day for humanity.

Three NHS workers die suddenly while working for same 'toxic' ambulance trust. Could 5G be related?

Ambulance dispatcher Luke Wright and paramedics Christopher Gill and Richard Grimes all died suddenly after a whistleblower raised concerns about psychological abuse

An ambulance service where three staff have died of suspected suicide in two weeks has been accused of a toxic culture.

Ambulance dispatcher Luke Wright, 24, and paramedics Christopher Gill and Richard Grimes were found dead between November 11 and November 21.

Shortly before their deaths a whistleblower wrote to the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust's boss complaining about psychological abuse.

Comment: This is a rather fishy story, to say the least! Three suicides in 11 days, all from the same workplace. In the report from the BBC, they quote Daniel, brother of the victim Luke Wright, as saying:
Daniel said his brother "constantly had a smile on his face. He was caring and loved his job and was amazing. He was always helping people."
Does that sound like someone on the verge of suicide?

There's an interesting connection made by Jack Kruse. From June 24 of this year, Smart Cities World reported:
5G testbed demonstrates the ambulance of the future, today

The West Midlands 5G testbed joined with University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust and BT to demonstrate a remote-controlled ultrasound scan over a public 5G network.

WM5G, the UK's first region-wide 5G testbed designed to accelerate 5G deployment, is working with University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust (UHB) and BT to showcase how 5G can transform healthcare and the emergency services.

The organisations recently combined to undertake the UK's first demonstration of a remote-controlled ultrasound scan over a public 5G network.
...
The demonstration was hosted by the Medical Devices Testing and Evaluation Centre (MD-TEC) in UHB's prestigious simulation lab located in the Institute of Translational Medicine. The showcase brings the concept of a 5G connected ambulance to life and provides new technologies to frontline staff to create a facility for patients to be diagnosed and triaged in the most appropriate settings. It enables remote diagnostics performed by paramedics who are supported by clinicians based in the hospital.
...
The images are relayed over a high-bandwidth 5G connection, so the clinician is able to view both the ultrasound examination performed by the paramedic and keep an eye on the overall scene inside the ambulance. The superfast speeds of 5G ensure sharper and more reliable imagery for the clinician than could previously be achieved.
Could the recent activation of 5G in the ambulances have something to do with these three mysterious deaths? YouTuber Jack Striker noted birds were dropping dead outside of Coventry Hospital after 5G was activated there:

This is all speculative, of course. But three unusual suicides timed rather perfectly with the activation of a high-speed 5G network where there have already been noted odd bird deaths - something is going on.

Best of the Web: India is NOT a 'Vegetarian Country' like the EAT-Lancet report would have us believe

Currently, food politics in India spearheads an aggressive new Hindu nationalism that has led to many of India's meat eating minority communities being treated as inferior.

Vegetarians, far less vegans, let us be frank, would not like to be compelled to eat meat. Yet the reverse compulsion is what lurks in the current proposals for a new 'planetary diet'. Nowhere is this more visible than in India.

The subcontinent is often stereotyped by the West as a vegetarian utopia, where transcendental wisdom, longevity, and asceticism go hand in hand.

Earlier this year, the EAT-Lancet Commission released its global report on nutrition and called for a global shift to a more plant based diet: "The scientific targets set by this Commission provide guidance for the necessary shift, which consists of increasing consumption of plant-based foods and substantially reducing consumption of animal source foods".

Comment: Like much of the EAT-Lancet report, the idea that India is a vegetarian country is nothing but propaganda, propped up to fulfill an agenda. That agenda, the 'vegan pusch', is a house of cards, upheld by these blatant lies in an attempt to sway the global population into strict dietary austerity.

Our diets are killing us and doctors aren't trained to help

What if your doctor failed to talk to you about the most important threat to your health? Wouldn't you worry about the quality of your health care? Poor quality diet is a leading cause of death in the United States, but it is unlikely that your doctor has the knowledge to even begin a meaningful conversation about your nutrition or to make an appropriate dietary referral.

Most doctors lack the knowledge necessary to offer nutrition advice to patients; indeed, fewer than 14 percent of physicians report feeling equipped to advise on diet or the connection between food and health. This is unsurprising given that, for example, 90 percent of cardiologists in a recent survey reported receiving minimal or no instruction on nutrition during medical training.

Yet it is also concerning. Obesity, type-2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and stroke, which are leading causes of death in the United States, all are closely linked to diet and nutrition.

Comment: Make no mistake, the authors of this piece are vegan diet-pushing, plant-based fascists who would like nothing more than to see meat consumption removed from the planet and veganism enforced worldwide. Walter Willet has been involved in multiple initiatives to push the climate narrative to support global dietary changes.

Despite this, there's nothing wrong with what's being stated above - they are absolutely right that doctors are unprepared to deal with diet-related illness and will simply keep throwing pills at these problems, hoping they'll go away. At the very least, people on multiple sides of the diet debate can agree on at least one aspect of the problem.
