Playing War Games in Deficit to Life...
You know I find myself really overwhelmed at times with the bitterness and hostility that comes from all directions in our society and throughout the world today.
Clearly, if it were not for political reasons, it would be for something else. If people today could learn to turn their fixations of hostility leading to war into creative aspirations leading to the building up of the American economy, then there would be no time for a shoot em' up mentality that seems to be building throughout the world today; and the resulting escalating deficit in the America’s way of life.

Healthy Ways to Overcome Stress
How I Helped My Autistic Son Reduce Anxiety Levels & Find All Night Restful Sleep…
Today we see a continual rise in stress related health issues on a world wide level. With the many uncertainties we see happening around the world such as violence through wars, violence through crime, economic instabilities related to hyper-inflation and the associated unemployment rates, and political corruption; it seems that many of us feel stress in our daily lives.
Many of us are now so accustomed to these situations that we don’t even realize that these stressors are having an effect on our lives both emotionally and physically.
Let’s Look at How Stress Affects Our Physical Health…
You may think illness is to blame for that nagging headache, your frequent insomnia or your decreased productivity and enthusiasm for life. However, today it has been proven that stress symptoms can affect your body, your thoughts and feelings, and your behavior.
ts Your Health & EmotionsBeing able to recognize common stress symptoms can give you a jump start on managing them. Stress that's left unchecked can contribute to health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity and diabetes.
Here is a List of the Common Effects of Stress on Your Body, On Your Mood, and On

Understanding Your Body’s Bio-Chemical Reactions to Stress…
When your mind and body are constantly on edge because of excessive stress in your life, you may find yourself pre-disposed to serious health problems. That's because your body's "fightor-flight reaction" — its natural alarm system — is constantly on.
When you encounter perceived threats, example as when a large dog barks at you during your morning walk, your hypothalamus, a tiny region at the base of your brain, sets off an alarm system in your body. Through a combination of nerve and hormonal signals, this system prompts your adrenal glands, located atop your kidneys, to release a surge of hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol.
Adrenaline increases your heart rate, elevates your blood pressure and boosts energy supplies. Cortisol, the primary stress hormone, increases sugars (glucose) in the bloodstream, enhances your brain's use of glucose and increases the availability of substances that repair tissues.
Cortisol also curbs functions that would be nonessential or detrimental in a fight-or-flight situation. It alters immune system responses and suppresses the digestive system, the reproductive system and growth processes.
This complex natural alarm system also communicates with regions of your brain that control mood, motivation and fear. In my early life I encountered continual extreme stress for a period of about four years. At the age of 22, when my life was pretty well stabilized I experienced a rapid growth encounter. At the age of 21, I was 5’5” tall and wore a size six shoe; suddenly in a period of about 10 months I grew to a height of 5’8” tall, and found myself wearing a 7.5 shoe size.
The human body is supposed to stop growth at the age of 21 and yet after this age I encountered this rapid physical growth experience. Now, I know that it was the stressors experienced in life that had actually stunted my growth. Likewise, my son who is Autistic and due to this condition could not deal with stress in life experienced tremendous growth events between the ages of 20 and 21, growing 8 inches in each of those years.
Why Does Stress Potentially Pre-Dispose You to Illness?
The body's stress-response system is usually self-regulating. It decreases hormone levels and enables your body to return to normal once a perceived threat has passed. As adrenaline and cortisol levels drop, your heart rate and blood pressure return to baseline levels, and other systems resume their regular activities. But when the stressors of your life are always present, leaving you constantly feeling stressed, tense, nervous or on edge, that fight-or-flight reaction stays turned on. The less control you have over potentially stress-inducing events and the more uncertainty they create, the more likely you are to feel stressed.
Even the typical day-to-day demands of living can contribute to your body's stress response. The long-term activation of the stress-response system — and the subsequent overexposure to cortisol and other stress hormones — can disrupt almost all your body's processes.
Medical Treatments for Stress and Anxiety Disorders…
Today many in the health industry prescribe medications to help individuals deal with stress anti-anxiety drugs. Anti-anxiety drugs, also known as tranquilizers, are medications that relieve anxiety by slowing down the central nervous system. Their relaxing and calming effects have made them very popular: anti-anxiety drugs are the most widely prescribed type of medication for anxiety. They are also prescribed as sleeping pills and muscle relaxants.
Benzodiazepines are the most common class of anti-anxiety drugs. They include:
Xanax (alprazolam)
Klonopin (clonazepam)
Valium (diazepam)Ativan (lorazepam)
Benzodiazepines are fast acting—typically bringing relief within thirty minutes to an hour. Because they work quickly, benzodiazepines are very effective when taken during a panic attack or another overwhelming anxiety episode. But despite their potent anti-anxiety effects, they have their drawbacks.
The Side Effects of Anti-Anxiety Drugs…
Anti-anxiety drugs like benzodiazepines work by reducing brain activity. While this temporarily relieves anxiety, it can also lead to unwanted side effects. The higher the dose, the more pronounced these side effects typically become. However, some people feel sleepy, foggy, and uncoordinated even on low doses of benzodiazepines, which can cause problems with work, school, or everyday activities such as driving. Some even feel a medication hangover the next day. Because benzodiazepines are metabolized slowly, the medication can build up in the body when used over longer periods of time. The result is over-sedation. People who are over-sedated may look like they’re drunk.
The Common Side-Effects of Benzodiazepines or Tranquilizers are…
Benzodiazepines are also associated with depression. Long-term benzodiazepine users are often depressed, and higher doses are believed to increase the risk of both depressive symptoms and suicidal thoughts and feelings. Furthermore, benzodiazepines can cause emotional blunting or numbness. The medication relieves the anxiety, but it also blocks feelings of pleasure or pain.
The Paradoxical Effects of Anti-Anxiety Drugs…
Despite their sedating properties, some people who take anti-anxiety medication experience paradoxical excitement. The most common paradoxical reactions are increased anxiety, irritability, and agitation.
However, more severe effects can also occur, including:
Mania, Hostility and rage, Aggressive or impulsive behavior, Hallucinations
Paradoxical reactions as listed above to these anxiety medications are most common in children, the elderly, and people with developmental disabilities; these groups are also the ones most prescribed these types of medications.
There Are Healthy, Holistic Alternatives to Treating the Symptoms of Stress…
We all love our children… Imagine watching your child experiencing a maniacal rage, one that causes them to bang their heads, or scratch their bodies, or bite their fingers through, or even gouge their eyes out in rage! I actually worked with a Blind & Autistic boy of 9 years old who had torn the retinal nerves of both eyes in an attempt to gouge his own eyes out thereby blinding himself, Why?, because he could not handle environmental stressors.
Likewise, when my son exhibited these types of self-injurious behaviors his doctors prescribed benzodiazepines. After taking these drugs my son was in a stupor as if “Not There.” I could not bear to watch my son look at me in this drug induced stupor just so that he could tolerate life... I
s this life?, I thought as I watched the shadow of who my son was. So I decided to search for holistic types of treatments to address his needs for stress reduction. I am happy to say that these work, so let’s look at these healthy alternatives to stress reduction.My Holistic Approach in Treating My Son’s Stress Related Anxiety…
Now, here is my successful method of treating my son’s stress related anxiety rages. I use two methods in treating his stress, one a daytime/nighttime holistic supplement program using the following herbal supplements.
Daytime Supplements Regimen…
L-Theanine Benefits
I give my son one L-Theanine 200mg capsule in the morning. L-Theanine is a supplement extracted from tea and believed to be key to many vital functions including that of focus, sleep, immune system strength and even blood pressure control.
The research into the benefits of Theanine was very productive, buy clicking on the link above you can read the full article on this supplement. Research conducted in order to find any negative side effects to L-Theanine was less successful with researchers unable to find any links between L-Theanine and negative side effects.
L-Theanine was the subject of a paper 1999 published by Food Science and Technology. Individuals were given 50 – 200 mg of Theanine weekly. Their brain waves were measured and those who received the highest dosages of Theanine produced the most alpha waves. Alpha waves are the calm and yet alert brain state required to focus on complex tasks as opposed to Beta waves which are a state of high activity but also possibly excited and stressed states.
Read the full article at: http://www.ltheanine.net/l-theanine-benefits.html
My son takes one tablet 5-HTP 100mg capsule in the morning. A mood-enhancing formulation containing primarily 5-HTP, a form of vitamin B6, and St. John's Wort is designed to counteract age-related serotonin depletion and to provide general mood enhancement. Because it supports healthy serotonin levels, it may help those who are subject to mild to moderate depression. In addition, it may help with any of the other disorders discussed above.
5-HTP is well established for its mood-enhancing properties, among other benefits. St. John's Wort, as well, has been studied with positive results for the treatment of mild depression. Its mechanisms of action are not clearly understood, but they are probably different than 5-HTP's. It has been used for a wide variety of conditions since at least the time of ancient Greece, and it was commonly used throughout the folk medicine of the Middle Ages. It is currently in widespread use in Germany as a standard treatment for depression.
Over the centuries, St. John's Wort earned its reputation as a powerful mood-altering substance. Now science is confirming this reputation. When combined judiciously with 5-HTP, St. John's Wort acts synergistically, i.e., the combined effect of the two ingredients is greater than the sum of their individual effects. Other uses are for improved wound healing, antiinflammatory effects, antimicrobial activity, sinusitis relief, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), and, especially, relief from depression.
Prozac is commonly prescribed to treat depression and other stress related disorders in the special needs population, and in elder care. Prozac is a prescription drug, whereas 5-HTP is a natural nutrient supplement. Prozac is in a class of drugs called SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), other examples of which are Zoloft® and Paxil®.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are antidepressants that affect serotonin levels in the brain. Serotonin is a chemical
neurotransmitter. For many people, SSRIs are the first choice of depression treatment selected by health care providers.Read the full article on neurotransmitters at:
http://www.emedicinehealth.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=9973These drugs were originally developed to treat depression. Now they are widely prescribed for other disorders, including anxiety, sleep disturbance, PMS, obesity, chronic headaches, and other chronic pain disorders. Studies of 5-HTP have shown it to be valuable for all the same disorders. In direct comparison with an SSRI, 5-HTP has been shown to be equivalently beneficial for depression, but with significantly fewer side effects. Both 5-HTP and SSRIs increase the availability of serotonin in the brain, but they work in different ways. SSRIs prevent serotonin from being taken back up into the neurons, leaving more of it available in the synapses between neurons. In other words, SSRIs allow the brain to reuse the serotonin that is already there. By contrast, 5-HTP replenishes serotonin levels by biological synthesis of additional serotonin molecules, providing new stores of this necessary neurotransmitter in the brain.
My Night Time Supplements Regimen…
Stress and Anxiety also causes a lack of restful sleep. When my son’s highly emotional agitations began he also stopped sleeping through the night. He would go out on the front porch at 2:00 a.m. and then refuse to go back to bed.
Trying to get him back to sleep was very difficult and so I began to look for natural supplements that would helphim to find restful sleep. I have had great success using these night time supplements.
Valerian Root 500 mg
I use this supplement to help my son get restful sleep throughout the nightValerian is most commonly used to improve sleep, as it can have a sedative effect. This sedating effect may also help to ease tension, stress and anxiety, however, research is still inconclusive as to how effective it is for any of the above, notes the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine. The exact chemicals in valerian that causes a sedative effect are not known.
Read the full article at: http://www.livestrong.com/article/428758-valerian-root-dosage-for-anxiety/
When I remove Valerian Root from the night time regimen I will continue only the Melatonin to assist him in achieving restful sleep.
Melatonin 1
Alternative supplement for sleep aideMelatonin is a hormone produced by the Pineal Gland. Your body has its own internal clock that controls your natural cycle of sleeping and waking hours. In part, your body clock controls how much melatonin your body makes. Normally, melatonin levels begin to rise in the mid- to late evening, remain high for most of the night, and then drop in the early morning hours.
Light affects how much melatonin your body produces. During the shorter days of the winter months, your body may produce melatonin either earlier or later in the day than usual. In most cases, melatonin supplements are safe in low doses for short-term and long-term use. But be sure to talk with your doctor about taking them. After one month I will begin to remove first Valerian Root from a daily dosage to a weekly dosage of 1 capsule per week, and the Melatonin as well. If he seems to be able to sleep through the night I will probably reduce to one dosage of each per month and increase as needed.
Overall, both the daytime and night time supplements regimen to reduce stress and anxiety leading to tantrum and rage in my son’ life has dramatically reduced from one occurrence every hour to one or two occurrences weekly. This spectacular improvement has occurred after just one week of taking these supplements, I anticipate a continual progression using these supplements to help my son deal more effectively with life naturally – without anxiety and stress.
Autism makes things extreme in all areas of life; just imagine the possibilities for improving the way the average person handles stress & anxiety in life when using these supplements. Be sure to consult your physician, especially if you are taking prescription medications before using the supplements in this article.

Toxic Planet, Toxic Lives
My Personal Disclaimer Regarding the End of This Video…. Though there are many insights in the world’s spiritual leaders and their beliefs. There are also many falsehoods and misconceptions.
If the contents of the video below or hearing the statements at the end of the video have offended you in any way – I apologize in advance. I just wish to present a complete view of the circumstances pertaining to our foods and how it is brought to us. Thank You, TheUndefeatedLife…
Today we live in a toxic environment; even the foods we eat are synthesized so much so that the true food value is either missing or modified in such a way that it is no longer healthy to eat in most cases. Today due to chemical treatment that is occurring with our foods, many of the foods we eat are actually bad for us. In some instances, the food we eat and exposure to toxins is killing us slowly and accelerating the aging process.
In 2009, Harvard Medical Doctor, David L Duffy wrote:
"A study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism finds that 'A diet that is - high in (animal) protein and cereal grains - is metabolized in a way that produces residue with an acidic pH. This may increase calcium excretion and weaken bones.' I believe it may also inhibit the release of oxygen from the red blood cells to the body."
Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_Ehret
Throughout time and historical texts, the higher conscious leaders throughout the world have realized that certain foods cause the body to react in a certain way. In many instances toxicity creates adverse side effects including, poor health, obesity, depression, agitation, emotional instability, and the death of the body’s cells.
Our bodies are designed to absorb and filtrate all incoming substances. Our bodies are comprised of living cells that are interconnected to each other for the purpose of supporting the functions of each and thereby sustaining the life of the being. Life was meant to support Life. Many of the high fatty food sources that we eat clog up not only arteries, but also the tissues surrounding internal organs and blood vessels.
Certain toxic foods we consume create chemical reactions within our bodies that cause our bodies to produce and release even more toxic chemicals. If what we put in our bodies is contaminated then we ourselves will excrete contaminated chemical reactions that pollute our bodies even further.
However if we do not pass these chemicals out of our bodies and blood stream, then these toxins remain in the body clogging up are arteries and digestive tracts. Because fatty food deposits are not passing out of our bodies, food plaque forms holding all of the toxicity within our bodies creating an environment that breeds micro-organisms. These micro-organisms breed and multiply in the body causing even more unhealthy toxicity.
TYPES FOOD PLAQUE
Compare Your Kitchen Sink with Your Intestinal Tract…
When certain Foods: Animal Products, Oils and Grain Products are Digested they become - Food Plaque - in different parts of the Body:
1. Dental Plaque on the Teeth - Becomes Hard
2. Arterial Plaque in the Arteries - Becomes Thick Layer lining the Arteries
3. Mucoid Plaque - Intestinal Plaque Forms a Rubbery Sack Lining the Intestinal Tract
Clogged Drain - Clogged Intestinal Tract - Foods that Clog Your Kitchen Drain, are the Same Foods that Clog the Intestinal Tract.
Here at left you see a Mucoid Sack that was expelled during a colon cleanse.
FOODS that CLOG the Intestinal Tract
Animal Products (Chicken, Eggs, Meat, Fish) and Grain Products (Cereal, Bread, Rice, Pastas)
Reverse Aging…
Did you know that there are certain foods that reverse ageing? Use this link to read more about it. You will discover about the causes of aging and what you can do to reverse it.
Did you know that Jesus spoke of diet and indicated that certain diets could cause you to live forever? It is difficult to even conceptualize this idea in today’s society. That is because we are so contaminated with toxins. We have removed ourselves from a natural life style. Just as our lives, our food is automated and processed, leaving little from nature available to us.
Use this link to see what Jesus said on this through both scripture correlation and scientific information facts pertaining to the human body.
When I lived in Iowa near the pork slaughter house, I remember that some pigs would in realizing where they were would scream and die.
This video is graphic and was very disturbing for me to watch; however, I am glad that I did as now I have a better understanding of the food industry…. Just something to think about.
Today, I planted my second garden…. Lots of greens and fruits… I hope that you all gain some good insights from this information, and that it leads to better health for you and your families.
Thank you,

Footnote from Oahspe,
An ancient manuscript of Gnostic writings; also correlates to the writings of the Dead Sea Scrolls and various other ancient writings…
The asaphs said, “Alas, this difference have we observed: The trees, and plants and fruits emit delightful atmospheres, most nutritious to the spirit, but that which is emitted from the living fish and living worm is foul-smelling, being but of the sweat and dead substances evaporating. What, then, shall we do?
The Creator said, “From the trees, the fruits, the flowers, the grains and seeds, and roots that grow in the ground, have I created a ceaseless harvest going upward into the atmosphere, which shall be the sustenance of the spirits of men newborn in heaven. But whosoever feasts on flesh on earth, shall not find spiritual food in heaven, but he shall return to the butcheries and eating-houses where flesh is eaten.”
Your Peek Behind Closed Doors During the Reading & Signing of The U.S. Constitution, Sept. 17th, 1787
Introduction
I study many re
adings from various resources; in these studies I always research historical facts as well as documentation found in previous civilizations from within both their social diaries and their religious writings. That being said, I have been correlating information from the Book of Inspiration and back track researching the info. Found here with factual events in history.
As I was reading this section on the Holy Compact Day, I made note of the date of this event being relayed as occurring on Sept. 17th, 1787 and searched Google to see if I could find any historical correlations to this writing.
Now I want to say that reading this caused me to remember how in the video 3000 Year Old Secret, Mark Hamilton, Founder of the Twelve Visions Party, stated with regard to the US Constitution, “though nearly perfect (as pertains to protecting the liberties of mankind), it was still written by flaw filled man.”
"After reading the excerpt from the Signing of the U.S. Constitution, displayed below; I am touched at the deep and integrated honesty our Forefathers used in drafting and signing our U.S. Constitution."
Below this insert from the Book of Inspiration you will see my Google search result for the date of Sept. 17th, 1787. I have included the link to this, Your Peek Behind the Closed Doors During the Reading & Signing of The U.S. Constitution.
I wanted to share this as, if you are interested enough to read the entire text, you will see the actual signers of the U.S. Constitution affirm from within their group both what the flaws of man are; as well as an acknowledgement that the US Constitution as written contains flaws…
"Today we are, in stepping away from the liberty established in the writing of the US Constitution, moving ourselves back into tyranny…"
It was for this very reason that the Declaration of Independence was written as when in the course of human events…….
HOLY COMPACT DAY – SIGNING OF THE US CONSTITUTION
This was taken from the Book of Inspiration and within a Book called OAHSPE
This book was written in the 1800s
Note: Many of the writings of this book are identical to, both historical events as well as ancient Gnostic writings.
1. As the Creator, bequeathed to the children of Guatama (America) a government unfettered by the name of God or Lord or Savior, so the Creator sanctified the day of the ratification and the signing and sealing of His compact (American Constitution), as the Day of the Holy Seal.
2. And the sign thereof He made, A hand holding a quill. 
3. Which shall be the master's sign of salutation in the lodge on the day and evening commemorating the same.
4. And the Creator made the answer to the master's sign, The holding up (by the member of the lodge) of a piece of paper, signifying, Constitution.
5. Therefore it was said: The master saluted on the sign, Day of the Holy Seal, and the lodge answered in the sign, Constitution.
6. And the Creator said: Remember this day, and keep it holy, to the end of the world, for herein was the beginning of the liberty of man!
Note: no more should any be subjected to either King, Queen, God, or Religion. So I searched the date on Google, among other things, this is what I found…

YOUR PEEK INSIDE THE ROOM DURING THE US CONSTITUTION SIGNAGE
Tuesday September 17, 1787 IN CONVENTION
The engrossed Constitution being read, Docr. FRANKLIN rose with a speech in his hand, which he had reduced to writing for his own conveniency and which Mr. Wilson read in the words following.
Mr. President
I confess that there are several parts of this constitution which I do not at present approve, but I am not sure I shall never approve them: For having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information, or fuller consideration, to change opinions even on important subjects, which I once thought right, but found to be otherwise. It is therefore that the older I grow, the more apt I am to doubt my own judgment, and to pay more respect to the judgment of others.
Most men indeed as well as most sects in Religion, think themselves in possession of all truth, and that wherever others differ from them it is so far error. Steele a Protestant in a Dedication tells the Pope, that the only difference between our Churches in their opinions of the certainty of their doctrines is, the Church of Rome is infallible and the Church of England is never in the wrong. But though many private persons think almost as highly of their own infallibility as of that of their sect, few express it so naturally as a certain french lady, who in a dispute with her sister, said "I don't know how it happens, Sister but I meet with no body but myself, that's always in the right-Il n'y a que moi qui a toujours raison."
In these sentiments, Sir, I agree to this Constitution with all its faults, if they are such; because I think a general Government necessary for us, and there is no form of Government but what may be a blessing to the people if well administered, and believe farther that this is likely to be well administered for a course of years, and can only end in Despotism, as other forms have done before it, when the people shall become so corrupted as to need despotic Government, being incapable of any other. I doubt too whether any other Convention we can obtain, may be able to make a better Constitution.
For when you assemble a number of men to have the advantage of their joint wisdom, you inevitably assemble with those men, all their prejudices, their passions, their errors of opinion, their local interests, and their selfish views. From such an assembly can a perfect production be expected? It therefore astonishes me, Sir, to find this system approaching so near to perfection as it does; and I think it will astonish our enemies, who are waiting with confidence to hear that our councils are confounded like those of the Builders of Babel; and that our States are on the point of separation, only to meet hereafter for the purpose of cutting one another's throats.
Thus I consent, Sir, to this Constitution because I expect no better, and because I am not sure, that it is not the best. The opinions I have had of its errors, I sacrifice to the public good. I have never whispered a syllable of them abroad. Within these walls they were born, and here they shall die. If every one of us in returning to our Constituents were to report the objections he has had to it, and endeavor to gain partisans in support of them, we might prevent its being generally received, and thereby lose all the salutary effects & great advantages resulting naturally in our favor among foreign Nations as well as among ourselves, from our real or apparent unanimity.
Much of the strength & efficiency of any Government in procuring and securing happiness to the people, depends, on opinion, on the general opinion of the goodness of the Government, as well as well as of the wisdom and integrity of its Governors. I hope therefore that for our own sakes as a part of the people, and for the sake of posterity, we shall act heartily and unanimously in recommending this Constitution (if approved by Congress & confirmed by the Conventions) wherever our influence may extend, and turn our future thoughts & endeavors to the means of having it well administered.
On the whole, Sir, I can not help expressing a wish that every member of the Convention who may still have objections to it, would with me, on this occasion doubt a little of his own infallibility, and to make manifest our unanimity, put his name to this instrument.-
He then moved that the Constitution be signed by the members and offered the following as a convenient form viz. "Done in Convention by the unanimous consent of the States present the 17th. of September. &c-In Witness whereof we have hereunto subscribed our names."
This ambiguous form had been drawn up by Mr. G. M. in order to gain the dissenting members, and put into the hands of Docr. Franklin that it might have the better chance of success.
Mr. GORHAM said if it was not too late he could wish, for the purpose of lessening objections to the Constitution, that the clause declaring "the number of Representatives shall not exceed one for every forty thousand" which had produced so much discussion, might be yet reconsidered, in order to strike out 40,000 & insert "thirty thousand." This would not he remarked establish that as an absolute rule, but only give Congress a greater latitude which could not be thought unreasonable.
Mr. KING & Mr. CARROL seconded & supported the idea of Mr. Gorham.
When the PRESIDENT rose, for the purpose of putting the question, he said that although his situation had hitherto restrained him from offering his sentiments on questions depending in the House, and it might be thought, ought now to impose silence on him, yet he could not forbear expressing his wish that the alteration proposed might take place. It was much to be desired that the objections to the plan recommended might be made as few as possible.
The smallness of the proportion of Representatives had been considered by many members of the Convention an insufficient security for the rights & interests of the people. He acknowledged that it had always appeared to himself among the exceptionable parts of the plan, and late as the present moment was for admitting amendments, he thought this of so much consequence that it would give much satisfaction to see it adopted. No opposition was made to the proposition of Mr. Gorham and it was agreed to unanimously.
On the question to agree to the Constitution enrolled in order to be signed. It was agreed to all the States answering ay.
Mr. RANDOLPH then rose and with an allusion to the observations of Docr. Franklin apologized for his refusing to sign the Constitution notwithstanding the vast majority & venerable names that would give sanction to its wisdom and its worth. He said however that he did not mean by this refusal to decide that he should oppose the Constitution without doors. He meant only to keep himself free to be governed by his duty as it should be prescribed by his future judgment. He refused to sign, because he thought the object of the Convention would be frustrated by the alternative which it presented to the people. Nine States will fail to ratify the plan and confusion must ensue. With such a view of the subject he ought not, he could not, by pledging himself to support the plan, restrain himself from taking such steps as might appear to him most consistent with the public good.
Mr. Govr. MORRIS said that he too had objections, but considering the present plan as the best that was to be attained, he should take it with all its faults. The majority had determined in its favor and by that determination he should abide. The moment this plan goes forth all other considerations will be laid aside, and the great question will be, shall there be a national Government or not? And this must take place or a general anarchy will be the alternative. He remarked that the signing in the form proposed related only to the fact that the States present were unanimous.
Mr. WILLIAMSON suggested that the signing should be confined to the letter accompanying the Constitution to Congress, which might perhaps do nearly as well, and would he found be satisfactory to some members who disliked the Constitution. For himself he did not think a better plan was to be expected and had no scruples against putting his name to it.
Mr. HAMILTON expressed his anxiety that every member should sign. A few characters of consequence, by opposing or even refusing to sign the Constitution, might do infinite mischief by kindling the latent sparks which lurk under an enthusiasm in favor of the Convention which may soon subside. No man's ideas were more remote from the plan than his were known to be; but is it possible to deliberate between anarchy and Convulsion on one side, and the chance of good to be expected from the plan on the other.
Mr. BLOUNT said he had declared that he would not sign, so as to pledge himself in support of the plan, but he was relieved by the form proposed and would without committing himself attest the fact that the plan was the unanimous act of the States in Convention.
Docr. FRANKLIN expressed his fears from what Mr. Randolph had said, that he thought himself alluded to in the remarks offered this morning to the House. He declared that when drawing up that paper he did not know that any particular member would refuse to sign his name to the instrument, and hoped to be so understood. He professed a high sense of obligation to Mr. Randolph for having brought forward the plan in the first instance, and for the assistance he had given in its progress, and hoped that he would yet lay aside his objections, and by concurring with his brethren, prevent the great mischief which the refusal of his name might produce.
Mr. RANDOLPH could not but regard the signing in the proposed form, as the same with signing the Constitution. The change of form therefore could make no difference with him. He repeated that in refusing to sign the Constitution, he took a step which might be the most awful of his life, but it was dictated by his conscience, and it was not possible for him to hesitate, much less, to change. He repeated also his persuasion, that the holding out this plan with a final alternative to the people, of accepting or rejecting it in total, would really produce the anarchy & civil convulsions which were apprehended from the refusal of individuals to sign it.
Mr. GERRY described the painful feelings of his situation, and the embarrassment under which he rose to offer any further observations on the subject which had been finally decided. Whilst the plan was depending, he had treated it with all the freedom he thought it deserved. He now felt himself bound as he was disposed to treat it with the respect due to the Act of the Convention.
He hoped he should not violate that respect in declaring on this occasion his fears that a Civil war may result from the present crisis of the U. S. In Massachusetts, particularly he saw the danger of this calamitous event-In that State there are two parties, one devoted to Democracy, the worst he thought of all political evils, the other as violent in the opposite extreme. From the collision of these in opposing and resisting the Constitution, confusion was greatly to be feared.
He had thought it necessary, for this & other reasons that the plan should have been proposed in a more mediating shape, in order to abate the heat and opposition of parties. As it has been passed by the Convention, he was persuaded it would have a contrary effect. He could not therefore by signing the Constitution pledge himself to abide by it at all events. The proposed form made no difference with him. But if it were not otherwise apparent, the refusals to sign should never be known from him. Alluding to the remarks of Docr. Franklin, he could not he said but view them as leveled at himself and the other gentlemen who meant not to sign;
Genl. PINKNEY. We are not likely to gain many converts by the ambiguity of the proposed form of signing. He thought it best to be candid and let the form speak the substance. If the meaning of the signers be left in doubt, his purpose would not be answered. He should sign the Constitution with a view to support it with all his influence, and wished to pledge himself accordingly.
Docr. FRANKLIN. It is too soon to pledge ourselves before Congress and our Constituents shall have approved the plan.
Mr. INGERSOL did not consider the signing, either as a mere attestation of the fact, or as pledging the signers to support the Constitution at all events; but as a recommendation, of what, all things considered, was the most eligible. On the motion of Docr. Franklin 
HERE IS THE ACCOUNTING OF THE YES AND NO VOTES FROM THE STATES.
N. H. ay. Mas. ay. Ct. ay. N. J. ay. Pa. ay. Del. ay. Md. ay. Va. ay. N. C. ay. S. C. divd. Geo. ay.
Mr. KING suggested that the Journals of the Convention should be either destroyed, or deposited in the custody of the President. He thought if suffered to be made public, a bad use would be made of them by those who would wish to prevent the adoption of the Constitution.
Mr. WILSON preferred the second expedient, he had at one time liked the first best; but as false suggestions may be propagated it should not be made impossible to contradict them.
A question was then put on depositing the Journals and other papers of the Convention in the hands of the President, on which,
HERE IS THE ACCOUNTING OF THE YES AND NO VOTES FROM THE STATES ON THIS MATTER ( The Signing of The U.S. Constitution.
N. H. ay. Mtts. ay. Ct. ay. N. J. ay. Pena. ay. Del. ay. Md. no. Va. ay. N. C. ay. S. C. ay. Geo. ay.
The President having asked what the Convention meant should be done with the Journals &c, whether copies were to be allowed to the members if applied for. It was Resolved nem: con "that he retain the Journal and other papers, subject to the order of the Congress, if ever formed under the Constitution.
The members then proceeded to sign the instrument. Whilst the last members were signing it Doctr. FRANKLIN looking towards the Presidents Chair, at the back of which a rising sun happened to be painted, observed to a few members near him, that Painters had found it difficult to distinguish in their art a rising from a setting sun. I have said he, often and often in the course of the Session, and the vicissitudes of my hopes and fears as to its issue, looked at that behind the President without being able to tell whether it was rising or setting: But now at length I have the happiness to know that it is a rising and not a setting Sun.
The Constitution being signed by all the members except Mr. Randolph, Mr. Mason, and Mr. Gerry who declined giving it the sanction of their names, the Convention dissolved itself by an Adjournment sine die-
The few alterations and corrections made in these debates which are not in my hand writing, were dictated by me and made in my presence by John C. Payne.
JAMES MADISON.
Conclusion...
At some point we must look at the course we are taking and make a choice... Our Forefathers made a choice to unify and draft both the Declaration of Independence and our U.S. Constitution so that Americans (and all Free People, for so they were designed to be), could have the opportunities and liberty to produce for themselves the prosperity and individuality of life that each one of us owns.Today we are nothing more than weary sheep waiting for the sheperding of a failed political and economic structure; on that has driven us into a failed economy, and for some, poverty. This is NOT liberty. This is NOT living. This is NOT what was intended for America and her people.
If you vote democrat or republican, you are supporting a failed political structure that today, Has removed our rights as written for us in the origional U.S. Constitution.
With this election year I ask you to look around you in the political arena today? Isn't it just the same old, same old? The same old politicians utilizing the same old broken political structure that is far removed from the U.S. Constitution. The only change we can expect from today's broken politics is just a new agenda driven, and agenda supported politician whose motives for drafting laws we can never really know.
I think if the signers of the U.S. Constitution were alive today they would be busily drafting a new and more perfect Declaration of Independence in order to help re-establish the origin of our initial freedoms.
This year, I ask you to look at the choices set before you. I believe that the information found on the site www.tvp2012.org and www.tvpnc.org is one option that, with their fully disclosed Prime Law Amendment, will re-establish the U.S. Constitution to its origin, and thereby retain for us and re-affirm our God Given Freedoms under Constitutional Law.

Stand Up For Homeless Kids, Surprising Statistics!!!
Stand Up For Homeless Kids
Homelessness among children who are living on the streets of America is on the rise. Nationally, 1 out of every 45 children is living homeless in America today. These children and young adults are a testimony to our flawed socio-economic priorities and practices. Today in America we have a governmental system that is being supported by a dependency based society. Without dependency on being governed by our political leaders, I believe that we would faire far better than we do today in America’s flawed political system.
Let’s Look at How Things Work…
Political leaders continually create programs that are supposed to help a society as a whole; and yet ALL politically funded charitable programs which are supposed to be for the social good inevitably create a huge dependency on the recipients. These recipients in turn become more and more dependent upon those public service programs in order to support their lives. There is something backwards about this.
Huge amounts of funds are poured into these programs for which a great amount of re-distribution goes to administrative costs and publicity; in these cases, and commonly so, the political leader is propped up as a Savior. However, we must not forget that it is the taxation of American citizens that is funding these self aggrandizing political programmed agendas.
If these programs are in fact creating a social good we must ask,

However, we must not forget that it is the taxation of American citizens that is funding these self aggrandizing political programmed agendas.
If these programs are in fact creating a social good we must ask,
“Why the increase in childhood homeless across America?”
Let’s See How Well They Are Performing With These Facts & Figures…
Nationally approximately 500,000 children aged 0-5 years old experience homelessness in the course of a year. (Source: Urban Institute, 2000).
Tonight over 1,200 families will be staying in publicly funded family shelters. Within these families, there are 1,200 children under the age of five. (Source: Massachusetts Department of Transitional Assistance).
Compared with low-income housed children, homeless children experience more health problems, developmental delays, increased anxiety, depression, behavioral problems, and lower educational achievement.
Something I Pulled From an Ancient Codex Manuscript…
“When you apply charity and it is self-sustaining, this judgment is rendered in your favor. You may feed three drunkards’ families, and flatter yourself that you have done charity worthily; but, if you have not done that which will make them no longer in need of charity, you have done little.”
“Another man may not feed them, but he may reform them, and put them in the way to be self-sustaining. Such a man will have done a hundred-fold greater charity. To open the way for employment and industry, this is the greatest of all charity. For, by these avenues, charity will not be needed, even for the aged, nor for orphans.”
“Consider, then, how little any people have to boast of for charity's sake. Even their asylums and poor-houses and homes for the aged and helpless are so many witnesses against the people who built them; because some great wrongs and evils existing within the state were also built by these same people in the first place. They are as paint and plaster, hiding and redeeming them, in some measure, for the shortness of a deprived people. These may say, Behold us! What a charitable people we are! I say to you that you do not understand the kingdom of heaven, nor its love and purpose towards its people.”
Interview with Toni, a Homeless Teen...
I decided to talk with a homeless teen and find out how she ended up homeless, here is a portion of that interview:
Hi Toni, thank you for talking with me…
Can you tell me how old you are?
I am 13 now; I lost my home at 12.
How did that happen, Toni?
My Step Father used to beat me almost every night, one night he beat me so bad that I ran away. As I was running out the door, he told me never to come back.
Did you take anything with you, clothes, food, money?
No, there was no time for that. I had on jeans and a T-Shirt and just ran out the door after a really bad beating.
How did you survive on your own?
That first night I was picked up by a guy that took me to a restaurant to eat. Then he told me he had a house that he stayed at here when he was in town. He told me that I could stay in his house for free if I would take care of it while he was out of town.
Did you take him up on his offer?
For sure, I was excited to think that I finally had a home where I could be safe and able to stay in school. He stayed with me that first night and we watched TV and ate popcorn late into the morning. He did not try to have sex with me or anything that night and so I thought he was for real and that I would be safe.
You say thought, did something happen that changed your mind?
Yes, the second night after I had cleaned the house, I was tired and I decided to go to sleep early. At about 1:00 a.m. a man came into the bedroom where I was and said the man that let me stay there had said he could come and get a little.
What happened then?
That man raped me for three hours.
What were you thinking when this was happening?
I was afraid he was going to kill me, but I just kept waiting until I had the chance to run away. I stayed awake all night until I knew he was sound asleep and then I grabbed my clothes and ran out the door.
END OF INTERVIEW...
Homelessness influences every facet of a child’s life – from conception to young adulthood. The experience of homelessness inhibits the physical, emotional, cognitive, social, and behavioral development of children. It is my hope in writing this blog that ALL people will begin to see that to value life is to give the living an opportunity to support themselves. To give children the awareness that they are not just the castaway numbers on some over-population chart.
We must begin to understand what helping one another is. We must move away from causing our society to be dependency based; rather we must create opportunities for all individuals to prosper and live happily by removing corrupted political and dependency based practices that do little more than continue to prop up failed concepts and systems.
Our children deserve better than what we are offering them in America today. Each one of us can make the change for the better if we discontinue supporting political agendas that remove our liberties and cause us to be a governmental dependency based society in America today.
My Final Thoughts…
I ask you to look around you today at our society, are we doing the right thing when we continue to vote into office these political leaders that offer no more than white washed speeches and politically agenda driven proposals that are driven by the very same motives that have created these tragic homeless statistics across America today?
Be the change you want to see in your own life; and through your life’s work and creations given and received, we as a society can – and will lift ourselves out of the suppressive rut we live in today.
Thank you,
Mom's Home Acne Remedy - This Really Works!
Mom’s Home Acne Remedy
From The Undefeated Life
It is so hard to think about going out in public when you are not comfortable with your appearance, and Acne is your worst enemy when you look in the mirror and see those unsightly breakouts.
Watch this short video I made to share with you how I helped my son get rid of his acne breakouts. Now he maintains a clear complexion. He is happy with his appearance and you can be too.
Here is the video:
I also ask you to use this acne animation link to learn more about how acne gets under your skin.
HERE IS MY HOME REMEDY FOR TREATING ACNE
Every morning and night, wash your face using a mild dishwashing detergent that advertizes “removes grease.” I used an OXI dishwashing detergent when the acne was severe. Later I maintained the acne free results with Ivory Dishwashing Liquid.
If you have open sores related to your acne, don’t us a wash cloth so that you are not irritating the skin’s open sores. Simply lather your hands well and wash your face in a circular motion. Rinse first with warm water to remove the soap then rinse again with cold water to close the pores.
After washing, I recommend using Noxzema to moisturize the skin and leave a medicated protection on the surface of the skin. You can also use aloe Vera as an after wash moisturizer.
Remember this information is only given as a suggestion, it is not meant to replace any medical treatment for acne which you may now be receiving. It is simply presented as a cost effective alternative to many current acne treatment practices.

Overcome Memory Problems & Organize Your Thoughts With Brain Games!!!
Playing Brain Games is Scientifically Proven to Increase Overall Brain Function
The Fun Starts Here!!!
This is where our mind is a key player in these factors. We need to be able to keep our minds functioning in a concise, clear, and accurate manner in order to process all of the incoming information that drives us forward in our daily lives.
I consider the mind to be a very important muscle in our body… Our mind not only performs the operations of bodily functions for life sustenance; but our minds also serve as our information processing center related to the perceptual understanding of the information coming to us from outside of ourselves. With our minds, and based on the incoming information, we apply reasoning abilities to help us make right decisions which direct the paths we take in life.
She also explained that sometimes she could not gather her thoughts pertaining to the decisions she needed to make on her son’s behalf as there were so many aspects to the decisions placed before her. She explained that at times she found it difficult to remember everything pertaining to her choices as she felt so over whelmed with the many aspects of she had to deal with. She asked me if there were vitamin that could help her with these memory problems.
I remembered that Vitamin B-12 has been recommended by many to help brain function and I shared that information with her; also DMG has been found to be effective in enhancing both brain function and mood enhancement. But again, and especially as we age, we really need to exercise our brains to keep them sharp and alert.
Let’s Look at Some Facts Related to Memory and Aging…
It’s normal to forget things every now and then. We’ve all misplaced our keys, blanked on an acquaintance’s name, or forgotten a phone number we’ve dialed a hundred times before. When we’re young, we don’t tend to pay much mind to these lapses, but as we grow older, sometimes we worry about what they mean.
Forgetfulness is a common complaint among older adults. You start to talk about a movie you saw recently when you realize you can’t remember the title. You’re giving directions to your house when you suddenly blank on a familiar street name. You find yourself standing in the middle of the kitchen wondering what you went in there for.
Memory lapses can be frustrating, but most of the time they aren’t cause for concern. Age-related memory changes are not the same thing as dementia.
As we grow older, we experience physiological changes that can cause glitches in brain functions we’ve always taken for granted. It takes longer to learn and recall information. We’re not as quick as we used to be. In fact, we often mistake this slowing of our mental processes for true memory loss. But in most cases, if we give ourselves time, the information will come to mind.
What Causes Age-Related Memory Loss?
The hippocampus, a region of the brain involved in the formation and retrieval of memories, often deteriorates with age.
Growth factors, e.g. hormones and proteins that protect and repair brain cells and stimulate neural growth decline with age.
Can We Rejuvenate Our Brain Cells?
Note: In a study conducted in 1991, it was discovered that the presence of acetyl carnitine enhanced the effects of nerve growth factor on the outgrowth of neurites from rat brain cells 100 times greater than when just nerve growth factor itself was present. This was an interesting observation at the time, but nerve growth factor is an internally produced protein in the brain, and it was not really known how to stimulate or regulate its production. There is a Synergistic Action on Brain Cell Re-growth when taking these supplements – Review for your own understanding.
Older people often experience decreased blood flow to the brain, which can impair memory and lead to changes in cognitive skills. Garlic increases blood circulation and can be helpful towards increasing circulation to the brain. If you can eat a clove of garlic a day, you can aide your circulation process.
No Matter What Age You Are You Can Use Brain Games to Help Exercise Your Brain Muscle and Keep it Alert and Active…
Pump Up That Muscle With Some FUN Lumosity Brain Games!!!
The brain is capable of producing new brain cells at any age, so significant memory loss is not an inevitable result of aging. But just as it is with muscle strength, you have to use it or lose it. Your lifestyle, health habits, and daily activities have a huge impact on the health of your brain. Whatever your age, there are many ways you can improve your cognitive skills, prevent memory loss, and protect your grey matter.

Diabetes is Beatable! Give Yourself a Chance...
Diabetes does not have to be the end of your hopes for a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle. Being aware of what you can do to stop the progression is a matter of education.
Let’s start with understanding what Diabetes is…
Diabetes (diabetes mellitus) is a chronic (meaning active and on-going), degenerative disease caused by insulin deficiencies due to the body being incapable of producing normal insulin levels. Diabetes also occurs when there is a predisposition to insulin resistance. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas to metabolize glucose, a form of sugar that is one of the primary sources of your cell’s energy supply.
Whether diabetes is caused by insulin resistance or a lack of insulin, the end result is the same: the body is unable to transport enough glucose from the bloodstream into the cells of the body.
Excess glucose in the blood causes a lot of problems. The cells can't get enough of the glucose they need, and when glucose levels in the blood become too high, it causes damage to nerves and blood vessels, usually in the feet, hands, kidneys and eyes. Other complications of high blood sugar and insulin resistance include increased risk of heart disease and stroke.
How Does a High Blood Glucose Condition Happen?
Why Does High Glucose Cause Complications?
Because many people may have this condition without knowing it, Diabetes is also known as the Silent Killer…
Estimations with regard to those affected with this condition state that one third of all people who have diabetes are unaware of their condition; just as I was about my son’s ONE TIME diabetic condition. Diabetes accounts for nearly ten percent of all U.S. deaths for people 25 and older. It is also the main cause of new cases of blindness among adults 20 to 74 years old, and it is the leading cause of end-stage renal (kidney) disease. In addition, diabetes is the primary reason for amputations of the limb, and is a leading cause of heart disease.
Diabetic Conditions can cause ulcerations of the feet and limbs; if you notice any of these conditions then you need to be proactive in seeking out medical and holistic care before the conditions become too severe.
How Wounds Develop on Diabetic Legs…
After 10 to 20 years of poor control of their blood sugars, many type 2 diabetics start having major
problems with skin wounds in their legs. Usually the problem at first is poor circulation in the veins of their legs. This complication of diabetes presents the opposite symptoms of the much more widely publicized condition known as peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
Diabetics who have venous insufficiency, (poor blood circulation) usually feel better when they get up and walk around. Walking makes their legs feel better. The poor circulation in the legs at first causes just a constant itch that is much worse after showering or heating the leg. Then the skin on the legs gets so dry that it turns brown. Usually a misadventure with a diabetic skin treatment product makes the legs break out in eczema, and then tiny holes in the skin get infected. The poor circulation under the legs makes them a prime target for bacterial infection.
Diabetic foot and leg ulcers can also be started by poorly fitted socks and shoes.
Footwear rubs against the skin and causes a blister. The blister is not noticed and is not treated, and it becomes infected. When the infection is limited to the skin, it is relatively easy to treat, but some infections take only a few days to penetrate muscles, tendons, and bones. Diabetics who have peripheral neuropathy may never feel initial pain from the infection.
It is very important to keep your circulation going to the extremities when you are diagnosed with Diabetes. Circulation keeps your body tissue oxygenated and alive.
What Are The Risk Factors Associated With Acquiring Diabetes?
Your at increased risk for Diabetes if you:
- Are not physically active
- Have a family history of diabetes
- Are African-American, Hispanic, American-Indian or Pacific Islander
- Are older than 45
- Have high blood pressure or high cholesterol
- Have a history of heart disease or stroke
- Had abnormal results on a previous diabetes test
- Had gestational diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy)
- Gave birth to a baby who weighed 9 pounds or more
- Have another condition that affects how your body uses insulin, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
- Are overweight
Be Encouraged, You Have The Power!!! 
I remember when I first received the news that my son was diagnosed with Autism; I could do no more than simply sit and think, and think about what that meant, and how that dramatically changed the course of both my life and my hopes for the life of my son. When he was later diagnosed with Diabetes as well; I felt so helpless, as if there were nothing I could do to change the outcome of his life. That is when I decided to do my own research into possible corrective treatments for Diabetes.
Your Ounce of Prevention for a Pound of Cure….
I am not a physician. I am a parent that has had to research alternative therapies for the treatment of my son’s, one time, Diabetes diagnosis. It is in this way I offer this information to you. I become very sad when I realize that so many people feel too helpless to overcome an unfortunate health diagnoses. I am here to say…
“There is hope, and it is within in your hands and your abilities to create a healthy lifestyle as you empower yourself through your own education and implementation of alternate and natural cures into your current diabetic care regimen.”
You can use the following information to help yourself. You can begin to take back the healthy lifestyle that you have always wanted to enjoy in life despite a Diabetic diagnosis when you are pro-active in treating your condition. This information is not meant to replace your current medical treatment; you should discuss these alternatives with your current Physician as you work together to develop the best possible diabetic care plan.”
Let’s Look at Your Healthy Treatment Options With This Video Presentation.
A complete listing of the foods mentioned in the video will follow the video…
You Don’t Have Diabetes, or Are Pre-Diabetic?
Here Are Preventative Recommendations To Help You Prevent the Onset of a Diabetic condition…
If your tests results show you are negative for diabetes or if you have pre-diabetes, you can take steps to reduce your risk of the disease:
First get rid of the foods that contribute to diabetes.
This may be hard for you, but you've got to immediately clear your pantry and refrigerator of sodas, high fructose juices and snacks, sugar, white rice, white flour, white bread and pasta etc.
These foods flood your blood stream with an unprecedented amount of sugar. This rapid flood of sugar puts a lot of strain on your pancreas - the maker of insulin that removes sugar from the blood stream. If you do not control this flood of sugar via your diet, the pancreas will eventually short circuit and produce less or even stop secreting insulin. The Western Diet is one that is heavily saturated with sugars, bleached flours, and carbohydrates; these foods confuse the pancreas causing it to think it needs to stop producing insulin.
Lose weight. Research shows that reducing your body weight by 5 percent to 10 percent - 10 to 20 pounds for someone who weighs 200 pounds - can cut your diabetes risk in half.
Eat right. Your diet should be rich in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low-fat dairy and lean protein sources. Limit foods high in saturated and trans fats, cholesterol, sodium and added sugars.
Exercise regularly. Work up to at least 30 minutes of exercise most days of the week; take an early morning walk. Just thirty minutes of walking can increase circulation and this in turn produces a sense of well-being. Always check with your doctor before you increase your activity level.
Foods and Herbs That Will Help You Beat Diabetes…
Many of these Herbals can be found at your local health food store. And, I have found many at my local G.N.C. Store (General Nutrition Center).
- Pumpkin - Research conducted on pumpkin shows that it contains compounds that help to prevent the destruction of cells, and also helps the regeneration of damaged pancreatic cells. Pumpkin also helps to increase insulin levels in the blood.

This lessens the stress on the pancreas during mealtime when insulin is produced most heavily, thus allowing the organ to function more efficiently. According to the Journal of the Indian Medical Association, coconut oil in the diet enhances insulin action and improves binding affinity compared to other oils.
