Since meeting Jeffrey Smith, we’ve learned a lot about GMO foods…
There is a lot of back and forth, but in this episode, I’m going to review some of the health issues with eating GMO foods as well as a great resource to do more research.
I also cover what to do with a dry, flaky scalp and how to figure out if your Vitamin C is GMO.
Take a look…
Your question of the day: What is it going to take to get you the ultimate freedom you deserve? Are you there already?

Hi! I have 2 questions actually..
(also most liposomal Cs are soy or lecithin based)
1. how much omega 3 oils did you take to build up your levels to notice a difference in your skin…
hav eyou heard of YES oils?
2. I am dealing with heavy metals, and i am trying to get my mineral stores up. i do himalayan salt soles which i feel helped, but i am looking for an overall mineral builder..i currently juice, but believe it or not, its not shifting my mineral levels..
Thank you!!

What a great question! sorry i didnt get to answer it the first time. i felt like i was very free before lyme disease..i was a long distance runner and living my dreamns of helping people in nursing school.
One type of freedom i love is long runs on trails..
Freedom for me at this point though is health, acceptance, following your passion and your dreams..allowing the shakti energy to flow within and throughout!

FREEDOM is working the business we have become blessed to own with the opportunity of giving through music. After losing my nest egg, a very large investment through the stock market recently, we have truly experienced God’s grace. Within a short amount of time we will again be able to travel on long trips and short impulsive ones, home school our daughter by taking her to the places we teach her about, buy the car we want, experiment with as much organic food as necessary(!), and invest in some land to build a home. The difference now, is that the land will be special enough for rows of protected crops, a greenhouse, room to store food, and a studio for…more music!
In the video you mentioned what Omega 3’s were NOT (olive oil & avocado) yet neglected to mention what it IS! WHAT is it? In other words, can we get it in raw plant form?

Income!
And a question about the understanding blood tests package….there’s a picture of a manual, but it says its digital. So I assume there’s no manual, and we have to print it ourselves? I was thinking of purchasing it, but I hate printing pages.

I’m going to talk about your Vit. D thing that you sent out yesterday. You said that you can’t necessarily get all of your Vit D from the sun. I believe that you probably can.
Dr. Mercola said that showering within 2 days can destroy Vit D levels. He suggests washing only your underarms and your genetalia and avoiding washing everything else in order to make sure your body is able to absorb the Vit D.
I thought you might not be aware of this. I just wanted you to know! Love your show!

Hi Kevin, I have just finished listening to your interview with Sean from Underground Wellness and I wanted to say how much I enjoyed it. You both have such opposing viewpoints in many areas of food & nutrition and yet you both have such great respect for each other’s decisions and choices. It really is about what works best for each person and choosing the foods that give you optimum health. Thanks so much for your information!!

Get away from working for anyone else and work for myself 100%,,,but to help people in many ways in the process. Finding a publisher for a manuscript will be a start… Secondly the more people I show how to reach six figures the faster I’ll reach freedom…Kev and Annemarie….congrat’s and enjoy yourself……
P.S. And by staying healthy!! Follow Kev, Annemarie and all the Organic Progressive caring people you can come into contact with….EDS

For dry scalp I use a vinegar rinse. I keep an old empty conditioner bottle in the shower and fill it with about one tenth vinegar (ACV or regular, whatever) and the rest water from the shower. when i’m done rinsing out all the conditioner from my hair, i dump that on my head focusing on my scalp, and i dont rinse it out. My scalp is perfect now
I started doing this each time i shampooed, but now it’s every other, or every third…. it even makes detangling so much easier!

For the person with the first question wondering if the mentioned spices could cause a skin rash. The answer is yes, absolutely. Especially Cayenne. You’ll have to stop with that. Also eating foods like cucumber, aloe vera and melons will be cooling for you and heal your skin. This in not an issue at all of mineral depletion IMO.

live out of my ‘comfort zone’ have good mentors, just found the coolest vehicle to take me there! Yahooo!!

I am losing my reading capability of small letters. I am 44 and it seems to be very common for my age. However, I want to improve. What can I do?
1:43 am on September 1st, 2010
Probably when 2012 happens, but until then some really good raw milk would be just great.
It has been the most liberating raw food I’ve ever had the pleasure to experience.
In order for 2012 to happen correctly, we all need to be in the “love” or “oneness” vibration.
Which means we need enough minerals and no GMO foods – please.

Annmarie’s hair always looks super healthy and shinny. What shampoo does she use? Are you working on a line of haircare products too?

Earn a living with my creative talent.

If & when I can connect with the unconditional Love & forgiveness inside me instead of relying on validation & attention from other people (especially women) then I will experience true freedom. I have also heard that as a direct result of this connection, which comes through meditation, comes all abundance, health,joy & beautiful relationships. What more reason do I need?
6:09 am on September 1st, 2010
A great question! Through meditation (Vipassana) I have begun to find freedom from attachments. Although I Love my Job teaching I do not like being in NY in the wintertime so when I retire in approx. 8 years I will have my ultimate freedom of living in NY in the summer and probably south America or somewhere near the equator when it is
winter in NY. I am sometimes torn between continuing to teach & the benefits of a full pension or heading off to the equator in the winter right now.
6:47 am on September 1st, 2010
freedom is knowing and loving God and realizing the bounty of living and healing food he had provided for us on this planet
love you guys keep up the great work
I want to be on that beach with you and make yummy raw beach picnic food haha

The only way to find freedom is to take personal responsibility for the fact that you are not and then DECIDE to be free. There are lot’s of vehicles out there to use, the one that’s right for you will come along, or the mentor that you need if it’s mental/emotional freedom you are seeking.
Taking responsibility is not taking the blame. My history is one of extreme abuse. I am not to blame for that. However I must take responsibility for how I choose to respond to it. Because it was my response to what happen, not what happened, that was crippling my life. Same with $. The best way to become financialy free is to decide to be finacialy free. If you find an older dictionary you’ll discover that the word decision really means to cut off any other outcome. With that in mind, most folks have never made a decision; they make attempts and a few bumps down the road give up and blame their circumstances for their lack.
I personally know several self made millionairs who began from the same place most of us live, paycheck to paycheck or worse. Henry Ford went bankrupt 3X in the pursuit of his dream. The only difference between us and them is; they decided to be wealthy. When the student is ready, the teacher appears. I decided to stop being a victim, I decided to be wealthy so I could give myself the gift of time to become the best me ever. I decided to be the person who could live my own dreams full out without having to consult my checkbook. Who could be the answer to someone else’s need be it $ or a light on their path of healing. I am well on my way but it starts with a powerful decision, the decision to be emotionally and financialy free.

I live in Canada therefore I know freedom well and feel very grateful for that! However I think I will experience freedom even more when all three of my children are in school full time!
OK Kev I gotta question you’ve got to answer it – you just gotta ah!!!!! Please help me! So, my eye doctor says my dry burning eyes is not because of my contact lens use but because I don’t produce enough oils in my lower lids. He’s says my lower lids look frothy and the oil glands look irritated. He recommended increasing my omega 3’s to 1000 – 2000mg a day. I did so using a combination of fish and flax oil. Didn’t notice much difference but I did experience two subconjunctival hemmorhages. Then it occurred to me that I had increased my flax oil consumption last year at one point and also got a subconjunctival hemmorhage in one eye. These eye hemmorhages (which is just blood in the white of the eye) happen without me doing anything crazy – no headstands, no big sneezes or itchy eyes. I literally look in the mirror and all is fine and then an hour later after doing nothing my eye is bright red and takes a week to repair! It’s really freaky! So my question, how to increase oils in my eyes, and, is there a link between too much flax oil (or just omega 3’s in general)and subconjunctival hemmorhages?
Thanks!
Susie
PS. would you ever consider laser eye surgery if you needed it?
8:07 am on September 1st, 2010

Regarding the shaving cream question, my hubby uses oil to shave. Very economical, only 4 to 5 drops and he shaves face and head!!Not sure of the exact oil as the label on the little bottle is sooooooo small.
8:33 am on September 1st, 2010
Ive Found it!!! Freedom
Aspect of GMO Foods on a spirtual level Is this .Spritual blindness. GMO are starting to control the world for False Knowledge as the Truth in the end times 666 . i know this sounds out there but this is for those who have an ear to hear!
10:23 am on September 1st, 2010
wow, what a great question and one that I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. I’m in school right now studying biology and I play for my university tennis team. So needless too say between running from morning workouts to lectures to labs and practice, I feel like I have no freedom! I feel tied down by responsibilities and obligations. I keep telling myself two more years, two more years.. After I graduate I will take a year off and go to Europe. I feel like i will have more freedom because I will be following my passion of traveling and experiencing a different culture. can’t wait!
Good show, i’m glad we’re done with fitness week lol, as I get too much of it already. I find the subject of GMOs fascinating. I want to look into that book.
10:39 am on September 1st, 2010
Freedom is an interesting concept. I used to think being free meant not having to answer to anybody. Least of all myself. Consequence-free life. Not very realistic/very juvenile.
I guess freedom now would mean in each moment, being aware that my Higher Power has it, that I’m where I “should” be, that I have the power to change where I’m going.
As far as practical freedom, it’s looking like: being out of debt and not beholden to banks; having a thriving garden; providing cost-effective living to friends through a couple rental properties that help with our living costs; and eventually building/running a rehearsal space for musicians.
Thank you for thanking us today, Kevin. I was ready to bop you on the nose for being at the beach while I’m here slaving away on more traditionally “jobby” things. Appreciate the awareness and ppreciation!
Peace out.
10:47 am on September 1st, 2010
I REALLY appreciate you guys, too. Your commitment to bringing us this wealth of information day after day is just so wonderful. Bless you!

Me taking full responsibility over my life and the outcomes in it. I am miserable at my current job- because I haven’t had the courage to speak up and make a change in my situation, or make a change in my job. I am still afraid of what society will think of my actions. So, today, I am taking the steps to make a change in my current job situation.
If things do not change, and I have done everything I can to change myself within the situation, I have decided I will quit and start a different job. I know I will succeed- I tell myself this everyday. Ultimately, believing in myself truly will allow me to be free!
11:59 am on September 1st, 2010
Thank you Kevin and Annmarie for your efforts to educate and inspire the ones that appreciate your work. I know I look forward to being inspired daily thru my participation in life, assisting others, being real… and of course checking out your shows!
I am a primary caregiver to my Mom who is 84, has Alzheimer’s, and lives with me. She reminds me daily that losing attachments to stuff, materials, and minded activities… is OK. She takes the lead in what the day will bring and that’s where we start. My 4-5 other siblings support her lifestyle as well (they come to sit when I work and sometimes play) as she eats more organic meals, has been reduced to minimal required drugs, and receives more nutritional supplements and love everyday.
As her memories begin to slowly fade, she shows me when we share moments of truth, that we are in that moment of real truth for whatever is arising in that moment. We deliberately deal with what is happening in that moment by staying present, grounded and of all things appreciating each other’s company and knowing we are making the best decision in that moment for our immediate survival. It makes me humble and blessed to see her be released of all the worries and stress that has accumulated in her lifetime! And it’s OK!
To me, for right now, this is what makes me happy knowing she is getting the most appropriate care possible.
She has always loved and looked out for us all! It’s our time now to continue to express the LOVE that she has shown to us our entire life!

In my mind I can establish a sense of freedom.
I am looking for another career to help me to get the freedom I ultimately deserve. Making money to pay off debt & create a savings for the future will help with that.
I have changed to the point that I can work work where I presently do, however, it is not to my liking.
I would love to work to pay off my debt in a position where I can use all of my knowledge base. Blending alternative health care with allopathic.
Once my debt is paid I would like to have enough financial freedom to help my family & friends while having enough to live & travel continuing on the path of learning how to create amazing health & sharing that with others.

I’d like to comment on 2 issues. #1 Gut Health. For anyone having gut issues I’d say give up wheat/gluten for a few month and see if that makes a difference. It made a HUGE difference for me. No more wheat/gluten EVER for me. We have an old saying in medicine, “when you hear hoofbeats think horses, not zebras. Gluten is horse, GMO is zebra. We shouldn’t be consuming GMO foods, but celiac disease/gluten intolerance is really huge, affecting 1-5% of the population. And giving it up is much easier than it seems. And very rewarding to your general well-being.
2nd issue~FREEDOM. America is being led down the path to Socialism. That is the opposite of freedom. Socialism has never worked in any country, and it won’t work here. Vote to get rid of these liberal/progressive/socialists in November and 2012. Come back to God and let’s get this country on the right path. The ONLY freedom we have is in Jesus Christ. May God richly bless you all.

Good intro to GMO’S Kevin. If people would take the time and research a bit on Genetically Modified Organisms they would learn Monsanto,Archer Daniels Midland and others are Playing god and ramming it down our throats. It is FRANKENSTEIN FOOD that they grow. And the seeds and pollen spread thru wind, water ways ,vehicles,insects,animals,migratory birds.etc . And All Plant life or DNA is FOREVER CHANGED ANN ALTERED. Man thinks he can improve on what GOD perfectly created and designed. It is all part of the New World Order where” they ” can engineer food so when you eat you can be programed to slowly die,etc. It is a real mess.

Hi Kevin,
Why can’t I see your show, but only other people’s comment. Pls help.
5:19 pm on September 1st, 2010
I have found so far in my life that the freedom I lurk for is coupled with the greater responsibilities I obtain. To acquire these responsibilities I try to, first and foremost, be a kind, sociable, enthusiastic person who secondly succeeds academically because of interest and not because of greed for high marks. As an almost 21 year old I feel incredibly energetic (maybe this is also because I live a mostly raw diet, heehee) with the world as my oyster. Ultimate freedom for me comes when I have the knowledge and resources to help create more knowledge that will have significant impact on the world around me. My first taste of freedom came when I learned how to think big.

Freedom for me would be debt free, financially independent and self-sustainable.

Hey Kevin. I have been reading your e-mails stressing the importance of vitamin D. Can you please suggest a good [vegan] vitamin D supplement? Thank you

I’m sooooooooo waiting for Messiah Yeshua’s Kingdom! When it begins we will be free from the nonsense going on in the world and we’ll have plenty of good things to do to keep busy. When I’m gardening I often think that I am practicing for that day so I will be able to do a good job of producing healthy food for my family. And when I’m trying out healthy new recipes I think I am checking out things that will make it easier for my family to adjust when we get there–’cause they’re not going to to be able to live on chips and ice cream!
I know the transition will be tough, but I choose to survive and arrive alive!

Excellent question and it will make me think as I do not the answer.

I want to leave a comment for Misty who is dealing with heavy metal. So am I. Look for the source, for me it was my old fillings. The high level of heavy metal in my body caused an overabundance of candida in my body. I thought the candida infections were due to fungus but when I had my old dental work removed by a trained holistic dentist the candida infections stopped. I use Quantum Nutrition Labs Coral Calcium mineral source. Freedom: freedom to me is to be free from my own self-centeredness selfishness, and all sin and not a slave to sin. God bless you all.
