Dispossession and Imperialism Repackaged as ‘Feeding the World’

This isn’t really “news” to anyone who has been paying attention (admittedly I was not until recent years). American Author Wendell Berry wrote on this topic in the early 1970’s with his book “The Unsettling of America”. Even then “Agribusiness” and the cult of “bigness” had taken hold and the small farmer and agrarian was being forced out of land and home. For a more British perspective I would also highly recommend Joseph Pearce’s “Small is Still Beautiful”, a modernization of an earlier work by Schumacher, again from the 70’s. The writing has been on the wall for decades.

“When GMO crops were legally introduced into the Ukrainian market in 2013, they were planted in up to 70% of all soybean fields, 10-20% of cornfields and over 10% of all sunflower fields, according to various estimates (or 3% of the country’s total farmland)”.

Dreadful news as that is for Ukrainians, it must be very welcome to the warmongers in Washington. The Russian government has forbidden the growing or importation of GMO crops. Yet if large amounts are grown in Ukraine, it seems likely that some seeds will be carried by the winds (and even on clothing and vehicles) into Russia. Since GMOs are biological organisms, once there they are likely to spread uncontrollably and contaminate Russia’s pristine organic crops.

There seems to be absolutely nothing at which these ghastly pseudo-humans will balk in their insane quest for yet more and more “wealth” – a completely fictional substance in return for which they seem quite happy to destroy the human species’ food supply.

Maybe that will be our final epitaph. “They depended on agriculture, which sustained them for thousands of years. Then they invented money and ‘democracy’, which destroyed agriculture – and them”.

As asked by Researcher…

Psoriasis (of course), After 5 days of potassium cure (15 g a day for 10 days)… I noticed an increase! in psoriasis… I thought that since psoriasis is an overactive immune system, and K would just feed it as priority one, that this could be it. I crossed my fingers that my immune system would stabalize and kept at it… surely enough, psoriasis came to nothing… I was covered and had it since the age of 14… I was then 45…

Head ache and fatigue… You’re just dehydrated… ingesting potassium too fast and peeing a lot. Glass of water and up you go again

Pain. Hit by a big dude on the shoulder and you don’t even feel it.

Hangover. Peace o’ piss (note that alcohol depletes potassium… pouring salt in your beer is a thing… BUT… I suspect it started with potassium chloride at least a century ago. Sodium chloride would just make things worst)

The roots of language. Potato-potassium. Potential-potassium. Potent, impotent… potassium… They stole our language

Art prior to K depravation.

A return to a pure feudalism is coming. It’s always been there but it was disguised in the 20th century in order to fool us in to giving even more to them ( ie trapping ourselves in to it via debt and the erosion of the “family”….let’s be totally honest here it now takes two working people to run a household. And in my parents day it took 1.5 and in my grandparents day it tool 1.0…BTW I am female and earn 3xs as much as my partner and have no issues with that so don’t shoot me down for being honest about what I see) . They want it all!!! And they don’t give a xxxx about us.

POTASSIUM DEFICIENCY SCAM KILLS AND MAIMS MILLIONS

The title immediately suggests to the reader that a giant pharmaceutical atrocity has been inflicted on the poor natives of some far off third-world country, by a predictably greedy drug multinational, but this is simply not the case. By far the largest number of deaths and permanent crippling disabilities from potassium deficiency occur in America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and several other western nations. 
           How this horrific state of affairs came into being and was perpetuated thereafter, is a very long and frequently confusing story, meaning that we must start at the very beginning if we are to have any real chance of understanding the lethal implications. We first need to understand what potassium is, how much our bodies need on a daily basis to stay healthy, and what happens to us when our body’s critical store of potassium is inadvertently or deliberately depleted.
           Unlike toxic sodium [table salt], potassium is essential to our health. Potassium is present in all cells and is critical to cardiovascular and nerve function, regulating the transfer of nutrients into cells and facilitating muscle energy. This wonder mineral also regulates water balance, assists recuperative powers, and aids rheumatic or arthritic conditions by causing acids to leave the joints, thereby easing stiffness. At the same time potassium is vital for the elimination of wastes, is a natural pain desensitizer, helps control convulsions, headaches and migraines, and promotes faster healing of cuts, bruises and other injuries.
           Because of its very high electrochemical activity, potassium is on the move all the time, and we need vast quantities to replenish that lost every day. When we exercise and sweat, we lose potassium through urine. When we are under extreme stress for a variety of other reasons, potassium loss can treble instantly. But as renowned nutritionist Adelle Davis points out, it is toxic sodium that causes the greatest problems. “Persons eating [sodium] salt as they wished excreted nine times more potassium than when their salt intake was limited, and human volunteers kept on diets deficient in potassium retained so much salt that they developed high blood pressure.” 
           If Mother Nature was to deprive you of potassium completely, hard scientific evidence proves you would be dead in less than three weeks. But in many ways this would be a merciful release when compared with the infinitely more painful and far slower death caused by slow potassium deprivation, the preferred method of the FDA and AMA. Proper scientists agree the daily potassium requirements of an average adult lie between 3,200 and 4,100 milligrams, but the average potassium intake of Americans through the food chain is only 1,500 to 2,100 milligrams per day, representing an overall average shortfall of 1,850 milligrams.
           Obviously humans can survive at these savagely depleted levels, because Americans manage to eke out about 70 years each, before this basic potassium deficiency overwhelms them and they finally die, sometimes in great pain from a number of directly related illnesses including arthritis, osteoporosis, hypertension [high blood pressure], angina, strokes and so on. It is scientifically beyond question that all would live longer and suffer less pain if they received the necessary quantity of potassium each day, which is where the American Food & Drug Administration [FDA] should do a John Wayne job, and ride gallantly to the rescue. 
           Alas, the Food and Drug Administration has not and will not do so, because of sustained lobby pressure by the pharmaceutical multinationals. Despite having full and unrestricted access to the real scientific data providing hard proof of widespread potassium deficiency bordering on a pandemic, the FDA has deliberately avoided specifying a “Recommended Dietary Allowance” [RDA], while simultaneously passing a law restricting the potassium content of all alternative medicines to a mere 100 milligrams. 
           This is your first clue to understanding how it is that we get so ill, and then willingly swallow billions of dollars worth of useless ‘patent medicines’. Remember, just to keep up with the average shortfall of 1,850 milligrams of potassium per day, you would need to swallow at least 19 pills from your local health food shop, and no ordinary person could possibly afford that in the long term. 

 The beginning of the end for obtaining essential minerals from fruit and vegetables happened in the middle of the 19th Century, when German chemist Baron Justus Von Liebig analyzed human and plant ash, and determined that nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium [NPK] were all the minerals plants needed. He claimed that if fed synthetically to plants, farmers could force plants to grow and support healthy humans. Thus Von Liebig became the father of synthetic manure, which in turn spawned superphosphate, the mother of all deceptive fertilizers. Though NPK and superphosphate are able to create a synthetic soil environment sufficient to stimulate plant growth, the resulting fruits and vegetables are always seriously deficient in trace minerals, with some containing none at all. Baron Von Liebig watched the deficiencies his invention caused with horror, and recanted before he died, but it was all too late. By then, the big investors had moved in for a quick kill.
           Running in tandem with the depletion of potassium in fruit and vegetables during the 19th Century was an even bigger problem. Until then, salt of any kind had been so highly valued on most continents, that at one point in history it was actually used as money. In Europe, Asia and Africa most of the salt moved by the camel trains over thousands of miles was sylvite, otherwise known as potassium chloride. Great chunks of sylvite were dotted along the trading routes for the beasts of burden to lick at, thereby restoring their electrolytes lost through sweating and other exertion. But when the railroads opened up America from east to west, they started carrying vast quantities of cheap salt produced in giant pans on the two coasts. Unfortunately for Americans this was sea salt, comprised of 98.8% sodium chloride, the favorite of fishes but a deadly enemy of man. And so it was that in less than seventy years, western man had his healthy potassium replaced almost entirely by unhealthy sodium.
           It was not until the early 20th Century that medical ‘science’ started to determine what it considered were healthy ‘normal’ levels for blood pressure, serum potassium and so on, using data drawn from the population as a whole. The problem is that medical ‘science’ was by then dealing with seriously damaged human beings, who had already been subjected to the ravages of sodium for nearly fifty years. So what seemed normal to American medical ‘researchers’ in the early 20th Century, would have horrified the Yanomami or any other self-respecting tribe one hundred years earlier. But because American medicine got off on the wrong foot, it stayed on the wrong foot, and slowly built a giant pyramid of myths based largely on ignorance and fatally flawed biochemistry.

 The pharmaceutical multinationals were by now exerting increasing pressure on the medical fraternity, providing all kinds of ‘assistance’ during their university training, with copious quantities of fancy-sounding scholarships and research grants. Both were vital in helping to get medical doctors to “see things the right way”, meaning of course that profitable drugs were the answer to all ills. As more doctors peddled more drugs to their patients, pharmaceutical corporate profits rose sharply, allowing perks for the doctors to be extended to include ‘training seminars’ at luxury hotels and golf complexes, along with other varied forms of discreet bribery.
           By the seventies, all meaningful references to serious mineral deficiencies had been removed from the curriculum, with medical students taught that patients could obtain all the minerals they needed from a diet rich in fruit and vegetables, although their university tutors knew this was a complete lie. Deficiencies manifesting as cramps, arthritis, osteoporosis, hypertension, angina and strokes etc, became ‘diseases’ that could be treated by a truly dazzling array of brightly colored and highly profitable pharmaceutical drugs. 
           It was all a terrible illusion of course, but the show had to go on. As toxic sodium increasingly overwhelmed healthy potassium, the resulting potassium deficiency caused hardening of the cardio vascular system, and ‘essential hypertension’ [high blood pressure of ‘unknown’ origin] became the order of the day. Incidences of angina, stroke and heart attack increased dramatically, as did stress, with the latter feeding on the former. Because of a lack of space, this report will only cover the effects of potassium deficiency on the cardio-vascular system. Other directly related horrors such as arthritis, osteoporosis, diabetes etc. will have to wait for another day.
           Modern medical ‘science’ has tried to explain away the critical and frequently lethal human sodium-potassium imbalance with an artfully designed theoretical model generally referred to as the ‘Potassium Pump’, in which the medical buzzword is ‘balance’. To quote one medical article, “Potassium is pumped into the cell by active transport systems, which concomitantly pump sodium out of the cell. The preferential segregation of sodium and potassium across the cell’s biological membrane is important in maintaining osmotic balance“. What osmotic balance? The Yanomami and other tribes 
Despite the Yanomami’s overall levels of sodium being incredibly low, researchers who examined more than 10,000 of these cheerful people found that there was a direct correlation between marginally increased sodium intake and increased blood pressure. “… a highly significant statistical relationship was observed between sodium excretion and systolic blood pressure for the 10,079 participants. The higher the urinary sodium excretion [and, therefore, the sodium intake], the higher the blood pressure.”

           Towards the end of 2003 I started getting the classic signs of ‘angina’, which, over the next six weeks, rapidly progressed into ‘unstable angina’, a textbook case involving an accelerating or “crescendo” pattern of chest and back pain that lasted longer than ordinary ‘angina’. This was accompanied by acute breathlessness, especially after even moderate exertion or a small carbohydrate meal. The fact that the medical profession did not know the cause of ‘angina’ infuriated me, because everything on the planet is caused by something else. 
           My basic knowledge of chemistry indicated that I might be suffering from a sodium overdose, so although in extreme pain and at times barely conscious, I managed to hook up to the Internet and do a few basic Google searches. The only sodium overdoses I could find were those caused by various synthetic drugs, so I reversed my search pattern and tried “potassium deficiency” instead. It was then that I discovered my medical ‘angina’ symptoms precisely matched those exhibited by a person suffering from an acute potassium deficiency. This information came as no great surprise. On the face of it, I had uncovered the underlying cause of medical ‘angina’, the latter credited with the sale of more than a billion dollars worth of synthetic ‘patent medicines’ every year.
           The problem was knowing what to do next. In Australia I was limited to 100-milligram potassium pills from the health food shops, or to a product called “Slow K” available from some pharmacies. Basically Slow K is a slow-release 600-milligram chunk of potassium chloride, which allows a ‘non-lethal’ dose of potassium to be administered under the direct control of the pill, rather than under the control of its recipient. The problem here is that all chunks of salt are biochemically “hot’, meaning that as the sugar coating wears off the outside of the pill, the chunk of undissolved salt is exposed, and can then come into direct contact with delicate internal tissues. In my casual view, this could easily cause some sort of perforation or an ulcer.
           Clearly what I needed was an industrial quantity of potassium in free flowing 100% water soluble form, which would allow me to first dissolve the potassium in water and fruit juice, thereby ensuring that no salt ‘hot spots’ could later cause problems in my digestive tract. In the end I settled for a kilogram of AR [Analytical Reagent] grade potassium chloride salt from a chemical warehouse, mercifully not yet under the direct control of the American FDA, or the Australian AMA. 
           Cost wise this was also a plus, because the whole kilogram set me back a mere US$30.00 including taxes, which is cheap enough when you realize that my potassium chloride purchase contained approximately 620 grams [or 620,000 milligrams] of the same potassium the FDA has restricted to 100-milligrams per dose in the health food shops. You do the math. Pop down to your local health food provider and ask for a quote on 6,200 x 100-milligram potassium supplements. Be ready to write a very large check.
           By this stage there was so much pain so often, that I made a personal executive decision to attempt to slowly try to absorb a minimum of 50 grams or 50,000 milligrams of potassium, representing about 1/5th of the 250 grams total that an adult male should contain within his body. Simple common sense suggested that such an acute deficiency, with the extreme symptoms I was suffering, could hardly be caused by a minor reduction in whole body potassium, and, quite frankly, I also wanted the stop the overwhelming pain before it had a chance to accelerate into a fatal stroke or heart attack. 
           With this in mind, I dissolved 4 grams [4,000 milligrams] of potassium chloride in water and fruit juice, slowly swallowed the lot, and then kept grimly repeating this process every eight hours. After about five days [or 60,000 milligrams] most of the pain had gone, but I was still incapable of truly coherent thought. It was not until I was well past the 110,000-milligram mark that my faculties truly returned, though by then I was so exhausted I could no longer write or use the computer. 
           Expressed in the same terms used by the FDA, in ten days I had slowly ingested 68.2 grams of dissolved potassium [68,200 milligrams], or sixty-eight times the maximum quantity permitted under American law. However, it should also be noted that this figure represents only five days of the maximum quantity administered by licensed American doctors to their hypertensive patients during the nineteen forties, before their research funding was mysteriously and abruptly withdrawn. When viewed in the latter context, my actions do not seem unreasonable. 
           At the end of the ten day period, all of my ‘unstable angina’ pain and breathlessness had vanished completely, and along with it most of the ‘essential hypertension’ that plagued me for more than twenty-five years. Nowadays I take a daily maintenance dose of 2,000 milligrams potassium per day [3,200 milligrams of AR grade potassium chloride salt], plus 200 milligrams of magnesium orotate to minimize losses. 
           Though medical doctors might rave about me illegally ‘giving medical advice without a license’, I am doing no such thing. In the first place potassium is a naturally-occuring mineral essential in our diets for normal development, which places it firmly in the ‘nutrition’ rather than ‘medical’ basket. Secondly there is no way that any government agency can prevent determined people from getting their hands on potassium chloride if they really wish to do so. The material is produced in bulk and used for hundreds of applications. For example, about every third oil rig drilling in the Rocky Mountains probably has about 25,000 pounds of the stuff, neatly stacked in sacks at the edge of the rig site.
          There are less difficult ways of obtaining potassium, especially in America where there are a range of “No Salt” products, most of which simply replace sea salt with potassium chloride. Fruit and vegetables grown in strict organic rotation on properly maintained soil will probably contain significant quantities of potassium, though it is very difficult to check precisely. Although I have the necessary knowledge required to test for potassium in a range of different substances, I lack the laboratory equipment needed to do so consistently. 
           

Today on a thread, I posted this… this is my first contact with conspiracies 10 years ago

Totally on topic (funny that)

Here is the article on “potassium deficiency” I was referring to. I was looking for a natural treatment for psoriasis. This led to a German supplement called “Kallium” (German for potassium)… which was taken off the shelves in 2004… I couldn’t find it… then looking for a dosage of potassium that would do the same, leading to finding this article after a week of research.

Potassium deficiency seems to be the cause of the majority of modern illness including low blood pressure, depression, auto immune mismanagement, osteoporosis, cholesterol deposits and heart disease, kidney liver and lung failure, neurological underperformance…. A gold mine for the new Rocker’s medicine

Great article. I can hear lawyers from Shitfoods PLC gearing up to defend the indefensible if this is revealed on a larger scale.
