Enjoy watching Caine’s holiday creation - all out of cardboard!

Helen — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 11:42:24 +0000

Like any nine-year-old kid Caine Monroy loves going to the arcade. Unlike most other children, however, he decided to build his own — all out of cardboard.

In Britain the National Trust has started a childhood charity campaign:
“50 things to do before you’re 11″
After finding a third of the children have never climbed a tree and 1 in 10 unable to ride a bike.
Some of the activities on the list are:
Fly a kite
Run in the rain
Camp in the wild
Dam a stream
Use a map and compass

What would you put on the list?

Cancer is curable now!

Helen — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 06:41:08 +0000

This DVD is a great introduction and reinforcement that cancer has and

is being treated effectively by natural means.

I am constantly dismayed that the current medical system does not attempt to start here with the treatment.

A body with cancer is already out of balance so why weaken it further?

Isn’t the Hippocratic oath “At first do no harm?”

ALDI no longer sells products with artificial colours

Helen — Fri, 20 May 2011 13:48:39 +0000

ALDI is the first and only supermarket in Australia to be completely free of artificial food colours across its entire range of exclusive brands and branded food items.

Stefan Kopp, ALDI’s managing director– buying, says this initiative was about providing parents with peace of mind. “While we completed the reformulation of our exclusive brands last year, we were determined to eradicate all artificial colours in the branded food products we sell as well,” he says. “Parents can have complete confidence that no matter what food product they purchase at ALDI, it is free of artificial colours, providing better choice for the health of their children.

Mr Kopp said artificial food colors are liquids or powders added to foods or beverages to enhance the colour and appearance. Research shows that artificial colours may cause hyperactivity, allergic reactions and migraines and they have been linked to stomach upsets and swelling of skin (The Southampton Study 2007).

Sue Dengate of the Food Intolerance Network described Aldi’s move as a huge step in the right direction. She said that Coles and Woolworths are also doing the same in their house brand products.

Ms Dengate said food allergies are now up to 8% in children aged to five years old and in addition, a lot of people are now using synthetic antioxidants that can have an effect on children’s allergies and manufacturers don’t have to state that it is artificial on the label. “There is a difference between food allergies – a reaction to proteins in food - and food intolerance which is related to chemicals in food and artificial colours and flavours,” she said.

“We are delighted with Aldi’s move, but artificial colours are not the only problem as products may still have other things in them such as preservatives,” Ms Dengate said. “Organic food is the best means of avoiding over 50 additives in foods which cause health or behavioural problems, particularly children, excepting those with annatto natural colour and rosemary extract used as a preservative. There are also a limited number of natural foods which can cause intolerances, therefore it’s always good to visit the Food Intolerance Network website.” Look up: www.fedup.com.au.
