			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>by Swami Beyondananda</p>
<p><strong>A Revolutionary No-Rinse Sprouting Method Produces Massive Amounts of Fresh Foods and Healing Living Oils Quickly and Effortlessly!</strong></p>
<p>Dear Friends:</p>
<p>At a time when a billion people in the underdeveloped world can scarcely find enough food to eat each day, and those of us in the over-developed world are feeling the pinch as well, there is now a simple system for sprouting food and creating &#8220;live oils&#8221; that can benefit all of us, rich or poor.</p>
<p>Given how important local food independence is in these times when we must build an economy based on real value, I urge you to read this entire email &#8212; and order this DVD!</p>
<p><strong>A Revolutionary Way to Grow (and Nourish) the Butterfly Organism</strong></p>
<p>I first learned about the Seeds of Sustainability over a year ago, and have watched my friends and associates at the Interdependent Project build their community and produce their video learning program. It&#8217;s ready for prime time now, and not a minute too soon. Imagine a system so easy that it can be used to grow food in any environment, even where there is a shortage of fresh water. And imagine having a way to enhance your own diet with healthy, delicious, nutritious live foods &#8212; an abundance of food with a minimum of work and no rinsing.</p>
<p>The Seeds of Sustainability DVD teaches you an excellent way to sustain yourself, and your family, with a method that can work for any situation, whether you are looking to add delicious gourmet super-foods to your diet or are trying to feed hundreds of people fresh healthy living food. This information is truly the modern equivalent of multiplying loaves and fishes for the masses, or as Swami puts it, &#8220;Feeding two (or in this case, millions of) birds with one scone.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Proceeds Support Sustainable Communities</strong></p>
<p>Not only is the team at project SOS donating 10% of their revenue to sustainable communities across the globe, but those very communities and charitable organizations in developing countries will be provided this information free of charge to further their missions and to feed those in need the freshest, most nutrient-dense foods available anywhere on the planet. Learn these simple principles, and you can eat the freshest living foods on the planet, even fresher than organic produce, for a little over the cost of seed. No matter where you live or what time of year it is, you can have fresh, living sprouted vegetables in just a few days, with no daily rinsing.</p>
<p>In addition to the revolutionary no-rinse sprouting method, the Seeds of Sustainability DVD also shows you how to replicate another natural process, the ripening process, to create Living Oils, unlike anything you have ever seen (or tasted!) until now. Learn how to make these beautiful nut butters or oils yourself, or subscribe to be notified when these living oils are available for sale.</p>
<p>Again, 10% of all proceeds go to the Green Fire Foundation, to provide extremely needed infrastructure grants for the existing sustainable communities around the globe who are pioneering the technologies that will herald in the age of the Butterfly; the organism we know as humanity, living together in peace, abundance and harmony with each other and the Earth. By purchasing the educational DVD, you will be supporting yourself, your family, and the very people all over the planet who are building the new infrastructure to catch us all as the caterpillar crumbles.</p>
<p>If you know anyone who is struggling to sustain themselves, consider gifting them a copy of the Seeds of Sustainability DVD. In this cash strapped economy, give a gift that REALLY keeps on giving by planting some Seeds of Sustainability today. The educational video is available as a physical DVD, or as an instant download (even more environmentally friendly).</p>
<p><a href="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Picture-11.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3489" title="Picture 1" src="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Picture-11.png" alt="" width="205" height="141" /></a></p>
<p><em>As you know, it is not often that the Swami puts his Seal of Approval on other people&#8217;s goods and services, but in this case I have gladly made an exception. I am passing this on to you because this is a practical program that will begin changing the world for the better NOW. I can personally attest to the high quality of the foods produced using these methods. Give yourself or someone you care about the gift of Self Sustainability. You will be glad you did.<br />

<p><strong><span style="color: #900009;">“Real N&#8217; Raw&#8221; is a solutions based feature film about reclaiming our health and well-being. The Director, Matthew Wilson was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis at age 5 after being symptomatic for two years. At age 12, he was told if he did not have his bowel removed and replaced with a colostomy bag he would have cancer by age 19 and not live to see 30. Today he is 35 and is a picture of health. This is a story that gives hope to us in understanding that disease is not a mystery. Health is here if you want it. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #900009;">The films includes interviews with some of the leading lights of the raw food movement including David Wolfe, Mike Adams and Juliano.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #900009;">NPD subscribers can <a href="http://www.openfilm.com/videos/real_n_raw/">view the film free by clicking here</a>. If you enjoy the film, consider purchasing a copy for yourself or as a gift to anyone you know who has a health challenge or perhaps you might consider having a local screening for friends or the community. Profits go to the trust: Food for Our Children.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2357" title="Bannercomfortcopy" src="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Bannercomfortcopy-300x109.jpg" alt="Bannercomfortcopy" width="300" height="109" /></p>
<p>Comfort foods may not be all that comforting, it turns out. Although researchers have looked at the link between certain nutrients and depression, not many have studied the connection between overall diet and depression. Until now. A new study in the The British Journal of Psychiatry found that people who eat more whole foods, such as fruits, vegetables and fish, are less likely to be depressed later on.  But those who eat a lot of processed meat, chocolate, sweetened desserts, fried foods, refined cereals and high fat dairy products have a higher risk for depression.</p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>The researchers suggest several mood-boosting possibilities: the high folate content in certain cruciferous vegetables, leafy greens and legumes; the high omega-3 fatty acid content in fish; the high antioxidant content in fruits; or all of the above (i.e., the foods and nutrients work in combination).</p>
<p>What’s clear: Sales of many natural ingredients for an enhanced psyche have risen over the past year even as consumers pinched pennies during the worst recession in 60 years—or perhaps because of it. Some popular ones, like fish oil, 5-HTP, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and S-Adenosyl methionine (SAM-e) got a boost upwards of 15 percent in the conventional channel, according to SPINS, a Schaumburg, Ill.-based market research company.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>by Mike Adams</p>
<p><a href="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/rx_symbol.png"><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-1114" title="rx_symbol" src="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/rx_symbol-150x150.png" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a><a href="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/images.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-1115" title="images" src="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/images.jpg" alt="" width="135" height="135" /></a></p>
<p>(NaturalNews) If you talk to many people about health, medications, toxic chemicals and food, you&#8217;ll quickly come to realize that most people have very little knowledge of reality in these areas. And yet, ignorance is often bliss because these people can just wolf down a cheeseburger, get vaccine shots, drink fluoridated water and take all sorts of toxic chemical medications without even a hint of concern (that is, until a few years later when all the toxic build-up starts to kill them).</p>
<p>So as a public service to those individuals who might want to rid their minds of any knowledge of true health and live their lives as members of the ignorant masses (a la being &#8220;plugged back into the Matrix&#8221;), I&#8217;ve put together a mind wiping recipe that you can freely use to join the ranks of all the doctors, journalists, politicians and consumers who think there&#8217;s nothing wrong with exposing yourself to an unlimited number of toxic chemicals from multiple sources.</p>
<p>Just follow these simple directions and your mind will be wiped clean in no time:</p>
<p>Step 1:<br />
Stand in front of a mirror, with your hands placed calmly at your side.</p>
<p>Step 2:<br />
Look into the reflection and focus on your own eyes. Take three deep breaths to eliminate any tension.</p>
<p>Step 3:<br />
Repeat the following mantras three times each:</p>
<p>&#8220;America has the best health care in the world.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The FDA is my friend.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Synthetic chemicals are good for me.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Pharmaceuticals are priced in a fair way that helps drug companies afford to find new cures.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Food comes from factories, not dirt.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Food and drug corporations are looking out for my best interests.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Vaccines protect me from evil germs.&#8221;</p>
<p><span id="more-1113"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;Fluoride is good for me.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;If we all would just buy more products that donate money to the Susan G. Komen pink ribbon cancer research fund, a cure for cancer would be readily found. (The only reason cancer hasn&#8217;t been cured yet is because not enough people go shopping.)&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The more pharmaceuticals I take, the healthier I will get.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The human body only needs calories, not nutrition, to survive.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;My genes are faulty and I was born deficient in patented chemicals. These chemical imbalances must be corrected through pharmaceutical intervention.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The sun is my enemy. I must fear it at all times.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Dead, cooked foods are nutritional equivalent to live foods.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;There is no such thing as a dangerous ingredient in personal care products. If chemicals were dangerous, the FDA would never allow them to be used.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;My purpose in life is to conform to the wishes of authority figures.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The planet is able to absorb an unlimited amount of pollution from human activity. There is no cause for concern.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Global warming is a hoax. Human activity has no effect on the climate.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Man has conquered nature. We no longer need to concern ourselves with learning from or protecting nature. Whatever we need can be invented in a lab.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The way to prosperity requires the use of genetically-modified foods and patented seed technologies controlled by caring, compassionate corporations like Monsanto.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Pregnancy is a disease requiring immediate medical intervention. Childbirth is an unnatural and traumatic experience necessitating urgent hospital care.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Drug ads are a good source of information about health.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Doctors are well informed about how to stay healthy.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Medical schools teach doctors how to care for fellow human beings.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Medical journals print only reliable, scientifically-validated information that can be counted on to be true. It&#8217;s peer-reviewed, after all.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Any surgery suggested by a surgeon must be medically necessary; otherwise he would not have suggested it.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The foods I choose to eat have no effect whatsoever on my health outcome. Sickness or health is determined solely by luck or genes.&#8221;</p>
<p>Step 4:<br />
Repeat these mantra until you have convinced yourself they are absolutely true. You now qualify to be a conventional doctor or a medical journal editor.</p>
<p>Step 5:<br />
Now that your mind is wiped clean, turn on the television and refill the empty spaces in your brain with TV programming. Pay special attention to the commercials, which will provide valuable information that you can really trust!</p>
<p>Those are the five simple steps. You are now ready to rejoin mainstream society where you can eat meals with your family without any hesitation about what&#8217;s actually in the food. You can now shop for cosmetics at Wal-Mart, or eat beef jerky purchased at a Quick-Mart. You can eat cheeseburgers and milkshakes. No more worries!</p>
<p>Plug yourself back into the Matrix, and live out the rest of your life in a comfortable state of ignorant bliss. You will find lots of support from family and friends, by the way, who will greatly enjoy watching you become just as obese and diseased as they are!</p>
<p>By the way, after you&#8217;ve wiped your mind clean, don&#8217;t forget to register to vote!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Another great article from Mike Adam&#8217;s <a href="http://naturalnews.com">Natural News</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/coconut-palm-martiniqueweb.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1054" title="coconut-palm-martiniqueweb" src="http://newparadigmdigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/coconut-palm-martiniqueweb-178x300.jpg" alt="" width="178" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>by Amie Sugat, citizen journalist</p>
<p>(NaturalNews) If you could make one change in your current diet which would positively affect all other areas of your life, would you do it? If you knew that just three tablespoons of a saturated fat would positively benefit your current health condition, would you take those three tablespoons of medicine?</p>
<p><strong>The Secret Fountain of Youth</strong></p>
<p>The secret Fountain of Youth, of health and longevity, has been located. No, it`s not actually water, but the fountain-like tree of the Coconut Palm or Cocos nucifera, which is a member of the Arecaceae family. This family also includes the famous acai fruit, dates, and other drupe fruits which are popular in tropical and subtropical regions.</p>
<p>Many common products and foods are derived from the palm family. In fact, all through history palms have become symbols of life, victory, peace, fertility, and sustenance. The Coconut Palm, in particular, is often called the <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/tree_of_life.html">tree of life</a> in the many cultures which rely on it for sustenance. Virtually every part of the Coconut Palm is used for something &#8211; from roof thatch to boats, from clothing to firewood, from garden mulch to a variety of culinary uses. In Sanskrit the name is kalpa vriksha, which means &#8220;the tree which provides all the necessities of life.&#8221; While those in Malay refer to it as pokok seribu guna, or &#8220;tree of a thousand uses.&#8221; In the Philippines, the coconut is affectionately termed &#8220;The Tree Of Life.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Wherein Coconut is The Main Course</strong></p>
<p>If a person were to take a look at the countries in which <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/coconut_oil.html">coconut oil</a> and milk were staples of the diet, they would notice that those who have not adopted any part of a western diet are beautiful and robust. If you were to take a trip to Sri Lanka, where coconut products are used in every meal and the population consumes an average of 120 coconuts per year, you would notice the <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/health.html">health</a> and fitness of the inhabitants. A little more research would show you that merely one or two deaths of every 1,000 are contributed to <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/heart_disease.html">heart disease</a>, compared to heart disease in <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/America.html">America</a>, which contributes to nearly half of all deaths.</p>
<p>Other countries which rely heavily on coconut include most parts of India, the Philippines, and most islands of the Pacific. You would notice that these people who have not adopted the modern <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/Western_diet.html">Western diet</a> &#8211; which contains unsaturated margarine and <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/vegetable_oils.html">vegetable oils</a> &#8211; and who consume this saturated fat of the coconut oil also have low instances of any major illnesses. Heart disease, <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/diabetes.html">diabetes</a>, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity and many other common complaints of the Western World are virtually nonexistent. Their secret is coconut oil.</p>
<p>When people of these regions have adopted the Western diet, researchers have found that the instances of these diseases became comparably close to that of Americans. In fact, a major study was performed on the remote islands of Pukapuka and Tokelau. The entire populations of these islands took part in the study. Before the study, coconut oil, milk, and meat was the main staple in the diet contributing to 60% or more of the populations` daily intake of calories from fat, while the American Heart Association only recommends that up to 30% of daily calories consumed come from fat and that no more than 10% of that fat should be saturated.</p>
<p>Despite this recommendation, those populations were consuming 50% of their calories are from saturated fat from coconut products. Yet, these people showed no evidence of heart <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/disease.html">disease</a>, high cholesterol, diabetes, <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/cancer.html">cancer</a>, or any other immunological or degenerative disease common in the Western World. In fact, atherosclerosis and arthritis were not even heard of!</p>
<p>When researchers had half the population in the study begin eating a Western diet, they began to develop the disease found in the Western world within days to weeks of adopting the new Western diet. When they returned to their traditional coconut-based diet, the diseases disappeared.</p>
<p><strong>The Right Kind of Fat</strong></p>
<p>Make no mistake; this article is not discussing hydrogenated coconut oil. Refined and/or hydrogenated coconut oil, just like other refined or hydrogenated oils, should never be consumed. Refined or hydrogenated oils of any kind contain harmful metals and toxins as well as nonmetabolizable and indigestible fats, which promote diseases. When you hear reports about studies which claim that coconut oil does raise cholesterol levels and promote heart disease, they are leaving out the crucial point that the study was done with hydrogenated coconut oil.</p>
<p>No, this article is discussing pure, unrefined, organic, coconut oil. Dozens of studies over the past few decades have shown that natural coconut oil, the organic extra virgin kind, has no adverse effects on cholesterol levels. In fact, researchers have found quite the opposite is true. The fact is if unrefined coconut oil was the cause of disease, then these countries which rely heavily on it would show evidence of disease. In reality, quite the opposite is true.</p>
<p>Bad Publicity</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the fallacy of the reported negative research has slipped up many reporters and by and large the misinformed writers, healthcare professionals, and the public. While the reports were accurate, the conveyed information left out that refined and hydrogenated coconut oil was used in the studies, which developed diseases in the participants. This problem is compounded because everybody recites and repeats each others` false statements. If the public and health care professionals were only to read the new research and the full reports, they would find that they were in the dark ages of nutritional knowledge. So, if you hear about negative aspects of coconut oil and product, realize that the person is misinformed and kindly do some research of your own.</p>
<p>On the other hand, research performed with unrefined coconut oils resulted in some amazing findings. People who consumed the unrefined and non-hydrogenated coconut oils were healthier at the end of the study than those who consumed the refined and hydrogenated coconut and/or vegetable oils or a low fat diet. Manufacturers have become so pleased with the <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/health_benefits.html">health benefits</a> of coconut oil that they have begun to use it as a &#8220;secret&#8221; ingredient in their baby formulas and adult <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/nutrition.html">nutrition</a> formulas used in hospitals for tube feeding. Research has now confirmed that coconut oil is one of the most nutritious and healthful foods available. It is recommended to everyone, including those with health problems, to include unrefined coconut oil into their diets daily.</p>
<p><strong>The Miracle Non-Nut</strong></p>
<p>While coconuts are called <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/nuts.html">nuts</a>, they are not actually nuts. Rather, they are the monocot seed of the palm family. It is rare that anyone has allergies or adverse reactions to the coconut. So rare, in fact, that none have been reported. However, many report the positive reactions they have felt from the coconut. Those who have diabetes have reported lower blood sugar counts. Those which have high cholesterol have reported lowered cholesterol. Those who experience lethargy or low body temperatures have reported their energy levels rising and their body temperature normalizing.</p>
<p>Even those experiencing common addictions have reported quitting smoking and drinking without even realizing it. Those who suffer from obesity have reported a reduction in <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/food.html">food</a> cravings and astounding weight-loss of around 2 pounds per week. They claim that the weight melts right off!</p>
<p>How much do you need to take to receive health benefits? The recommended daily dosage is three tablespoons. Of course, you can feel free to take more than that. Coconut oil is heat-stable oil. You can cook with it, fry with it, bake with it and even eat it right out of the jar. It is a delicious butter replacement and melts easily onto your toast. It adds a delicious, light flavor to everything it complements.</p>
<p>Since it is solid at room temperature and liquid at body temperature, it is shelf stable for months, even years, in the right conditions. Unlike other oils, even olive oil, it does not develop cancer-causing chemicals at moderately high heat. So, go ahead, replace your butter and cooking oil. You can even replace your favorite skin cream and lotion. Coconut oil is an excellent moisturizer and provides excellent health benefits both outside and in.</p>

<p>I just returned from a great visit to Salt Lake City with my new friends Tim and Vanessa Johansson, the energetic co-founders of <em>Rainshadow Labs</em> in Portland. (<a href="http://www.rainshadowlabs.com">www.rainshadowlabs.com</a>). Their socially responsible skin care company is about to go direct to consumer and I&#8217;ll be blogging about that very soon. In the meantime, I&#8217;m writing to let you know about <em>the most delicious raw food recipe I&#8217;ve ever tasted </em>which I&#8217;ll post at the end of this blog.</p>
<p>But first, here&#8217;s the reason Vanessa and I are conditionally releasing her amazing recipe she&#8217;s kept a family secret for years. A wonderful Minnesota family owned farm and natural food supplier, Wilderness Family Naturals (<a href="http://www.wildernessfamilynaturals.com">www.wildernessfamilynaturals.com</a>) is going through a very challenging time as the result of the Gestapo like tactics of the FDA. Their business has been disrupted and they have encountered extraordinary legal expenses due to this assault by the FDA who sued them saying their food products were drugs based on them explaining some benefits of their products. And get this, to add insult to injury, they have to pay for the FDA agents who are enforcing the court order. I wonder why the FDA doesn&#8217;t spend more time stopping pharmaceutical companies from harming people with their false claims and lethal drug interactions that kill thousands annually. Could it be because so many FDA executives are former pharmaceutical execs?</p>
<p>In an effort to support this high quality family owned business, I am asking you to read the mouth watering recipe below and if you like it enough to try it, do me one small favor and help the family defray their legal expenses. Please order their delicious rice, coconut oil and coconut milk called for in the recipe. That&#8217;s what I&#8217;m doing. And, check out their other nutritious natural food products add any you need to your order. They also offer a high quality re-bounder that is the perfect way to move your lymph system and eliminate toxins and a hemp backpack that will last a lifetime. In addition to their traditional rebounder, WFN offers a great <em>folding re-bounder</em> I&#8217;m ordering that comes with a travel case, book and DVD.</p>
<p>So, if you like the recipe and want to try it, PLEASE at a minimum, buy Wilderness Family Natural&#8217;s rice, coconut oil and coconut milk. I guarantee you and your guests will love this amazing dish and help support a wonderful family business serving customers around the country with delicious and healthy foods grown on pristine soil with some of the cleanest water in the U.S.</p>
