As some
of you may be aware, I write a monthly nutrition article in our local paper,
the Ozaukee News Graphic. Several weeks
ago I experienced a first. My article about the dangers of pesticides,
particularly glyphosate as found in RoundUp was attacked in a letter to the
editor. The headline read, “Rosen column based on faulty science.” Once I read
the letter I of course had to see who this guy was, and sure enough he was a
local seed distributor of Monsanto products!
Of course he failed to mention that little point in his attack on me and
the scientist whose work I shared.
As I
wrote in my original article, now several months ago, the more I read about it,
the more I am convinced that it is the pesticides, perhaps even more so than
gluten, is behind so much of the increase in chronic health problems we see
today. This issue of the newsletter contains my original article, Mr. Monsanto’s
letter to the editor, my reply to him, and some additional reference articles
on the dangers of pesticides.
On
another note, it’s almost been one year since the most impactful training of my
nutrition career – studying advanced muscle testing with Dr. Joe Teff. What I learned from him has not only
transformed my practice but has helped an ever growing client population
achieve greater health. Thanks again to Dr. Teff. Muscle testing has helped many people and
below is the story of the recent Men’s Wimbledon Champion and his personal
experience!
Enjoy
the rest of the summer!
My Glyphosate Article Attacked by
Local Monsanto Seed Dealer and My Response
As I
mentioned above my recent article in the News Graphic was attacked by a local
Monsanto seed dealer. This link contains a link to my original article, the
attack, and my response to the attack. It is a bit long, but worth the read.
For those who want the quick version I’ll provide that below. Again, for all
the details and the full drama click here: http://brwellness.com/nutrition-news/?p=10.

More Scary Stuff About Pesticides
and Glyphosate
Here’s
two additional solid articles about the dangers of pesticides and glyphosate.
The
first one is from GreenMedInfo.com. This is a great website. Did you know that
there are bacteria in the sky? This article explores the possibilities that the
same bacteria killing properties of the pesticides on earth (remember
glyphosate is also an antibiotic) are impacting the bacteria in the clouds and
possibly contributing to the draught conditions being experienced in
California. To read this article click here: http://www.greenmedinfo.com/blog/california-drought-surprising-cause.
The
second article is from Natural News. This article explains how glyphosate is used
as a wheat crop drying chemical to speed up harvesting. So, in addition
to being soaked up by the plant in the ground, there is extra being applied
directly to the wheat prior to harvest. I guess that’s our bonus dose! To read

The Power of Muscle Testing
Novak
Djokovic is one of the biggest stars in Men’s tennis. After recently winning
Wimbledon he is ranked number one. How did he go from good to great? In a
recent book he explains it was a result of a dietary change discovered through
muscle testing! To read the article
