5 attended (est.) – No rating yet Hello Friends! David O. Carpenter, MD and Director of the University of Albany, Institute of Health and the Environment concludes, “The existing FCC and international limits do not do enough to protect people, especially children, from daily exposures to electromagnetic fields and radiofrequency radiation. The existing safety limits did not anticipate these new kinds of technologies affecting the health of people living with and using wireless devices on a daily basis. These effects are now widely reported to occur at exposure levels significantly below most current national and international limits.” Brain tumor specialist Dr. Lennart Hardell, MD, PhD works as both an oncologist and a researcher at Orebro University Hospital in Sweden. He is an expert on cell phones and brain tumors. “The evidence for risks from prolonged cell phone and cordless phone use is quite strong. For people who have used these devices for 10 years or longer, and when they are used mainly on one side of the head, the risk of malignant brain tumor is doubled for adults and is even higher for persons with first use before the age of 20 years.” Come and discover some of Bio Pro's breakthrough products and technologies powering the world's first patented and proprietary solutions to counteract the effects caused by Electromagnetic Radiation.

16 attended (est.) – No rating yet You've heard it from The China Study by T. Colin Campbell, Dr. McDougall in the McDougall Plan, Victoria Boutenko in Green for Life and Dr. Douglas Graham in 80-10-10 , keeping our fat intake low helps us live more energetic, healthy, longer lives. The Standard American Diet (S.A.D.) is 42% fat while the raw vegan diet is a whopping 45-75% fat! Oh, but it's good fat, you say! Even good fat needs to be consumed in moderation. Learn why a high fat diet contributes to: Weight Gain (and you thought going raw would make you lose weight!) High fat recipes can be found by the millions on the Internet, but low fat recipes are more challenging to find. Purple Passion Green Smoothie A generous portion of each of the recipes will be served during the class. You will receive a recipe booklet complete with resources, as well as a contagious enthusiasm for raw foods and the confidence to prepare them for you and your loved ones.

32 attended (est.) – No rating yet Hello Friends! Since officially April Showers Bring May Flowers (perhaps not in Calgary), I thought that this month would be a good time to showcase edible flowers. I have found beautiful edible flowers at Community Natural Foods and perhaps they are available elsewhere as well, maybe even in your organic garden? Did you know that humble broccoli is a flower? So is cauliflower.But for more info about the prettier varieties... http://www.ces.ncsu. http://www.glenbrook http://homecooking.a Awesome Rawsome Lifestyle www.AwesomeRawsome.c "The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and the cause and prevention of disease." |

Hello Health Seekers! With so much interest generated by the Healing Cancer form Inside Out DVD, we decided to show Mike Anderson’s first masterpiece Eating. Save your breath trying to educate and convert your loved ones to a plant based diet. Let this 88 minute DVD do the talking for you and it will leave your loved ones speechless, but empowered and motivated to change their eating habits. The science is undeniable; a plant based diet reverses all diseases! This is the best video to help create a shift in one’s thinking. NOTE: This DVD does not promote a raw food diet in particular but does promote a 100% plant based diet which is a huge first step for most people. A balanced raw vegan diet restores your health more quickly and fully, but most people will never go that far. RAW FOOD MEETUP: EATING 3rd Edition - a documentary by Mike Anderson. Approximate running time is 88 Minutes. "Rivet yourself to your chair and watch Eating, a mind-blowing video experience that will forever change the way you think about food." "Eating is a brilliant program. It provides an easy and engaging path to health through good food. I highly recommend it." "I want both to congratulate and to thank you. You've done us all a major service." "A professionally executed, powerful and moving film. It should be shown to children. They have so much to gain." "The best tape on the subject I have ever seen." "A compelling and often shocking look at the standard American diet. Asserts that following federal nutrition guidelines can kill you." "With the ever-growing popularity of programs like the Atkins diet, seeing what commercially produced animal fat and protein does inside of you is a true eye opener." "I'm in full agreement with your points and give my endorsement. I was pleased that you identified USDA price supports as a major cause of disease in the US." "I was struck by the clarity and simplicity with which you explained the various concepts, and I learned quite a few new facts. I just kept thinking about how much I want my relatives to see it." "Without a doubt, this is the most powerful and disturbing video that I have ever seen; it is a magnificent piece of journalism, worthy of a Nobel Prize because you have rendered a great service to mankind."
We will have all of our books, kitchen tools, raw super foods, supplements, and cosmetics available for purchase, for all your RAW FOOD LIFESTYLE needs. We currently accept cash and cheques only. Diana & Manu Awesome Rawsome Lifestyle Cost: CAD3.00 |
