For some reason, whenever we get in the shower, we sing. And we’ve come to realize that our geeklings have replicated this habit when they take a bath. But here’s the thing: while our voices are nothing short of perfection, our spawns’ voices have a lot to be desired. So, let’s give them some pentatonic goodness to build up their musical ear while saving ours. We’ll give them a set of Water Flutes and they can rock out with the best of them (from classical to jazz to blues to hydro-funk)!

Codex Alimentarius (World Food Code)
Summarized in 7 Points
HealthFreedomUSA.org, the website of the Natural Solutions Foundation, is beholden to no one: our only interest is health freedom. Rima E. Laibow, MD, successful natural medicine physician since the 1970s, has studied 16,000 pages of Codex documentation. Her conclusion is that people who say that Codex is consumer protection, voluntary, or harmless are, at best, seriously mistaken. Codex Alimentarius will go into global implementation by December 31, 2009, unless We, the People, avert it.
1) Started in 1962 by UN, Imposed by WTO Sanctions
Codex Alimentarius was created in 1962 as a trade Commission by the UN to control the international trade of food. Its initial intentions may have been altruistic but it has been taken over by corporate interests, most notably the pharmaceutical, pesticide, biotechnology and chemical industries. Monsanto and Bayer are big proponents. Being a member country of Codex means that this organization decides what we eat. Codex Alimentarius is backed up by the crippling trade sanctions of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Any non Codex-compliant nation would face huge economic punishment since they would automatically lose in any food-trade dispute with a Codex compliant country.
2) Nutrients Classified as Toxins Based on Junk Science
Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) has two committees which impact nutrition.
One of them, the Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses (CCNFSDU), is chaired by Dr. Rolf Grossklaus, a physician who believes that nutrition has no role in health. This is the top-guy for Codex nutritional policy, and he has stated that nutrition is not relevant to health.
As unbelievable as it may sound, Dr. Grossklaus actually declared nutrients to be toxins in 1994 and instituted the use of toxicology (Risk Assessment) to prevent nutrients from having any impact on humans who take supplements! It is worth mentioning that Dr. Grossklaus happens to own the Risk Assessment company advising CCNFSDU and Codex on this issue. This company makes money when its toxicology services are used for the assessment of nutrients. Here in the U.S. we call that a conflict of interest.
Codex is made up of thousands of standards and guidelines. One of them, the Vitamin and Mineral Guideline (VMG), is designed to permit only ultra low doses of vitamins and minerals (and make clinically effective nutrients illegal). How can the VMG restrict dosages of vitamins and minerals? By using Risk Assessment (toxicology) to assess nutrients.
While Risk Assessment is a legitimate science (it is a branch of toxicology), it is the wrong science for assessing nutrients! In fact, in this context, it is actually junk science. Biochemistry, the science of life processes, is the correct science for assessing nutrients. Codex Alimentarius treats nutrients as toxins, which is literally insane. Nutrients are not toxins - they are essential for life.
No matter what Codex Alimentarius officials say to convince you that Risk Assessment is a science-based approach to nutrients, it is not.
And it is worth repeating that Dr. Grossklaus, the head of Codex Alimentarius, owns the Risk Assessment c
Resolved Question: Can I Overdose on Vitamin B12?
Because I drink a Energy Shot called "Spike" daily, and it had 25,000% of your daily value of "Vitamin B12". Also I am 13 if that helps. Also the energy shot is two servings and I drink them both.
Dietary supplement. Hardcore all-day energy shot. Double shot - 2 servings. No crash, no calories, no carbs, no sugar. 25,000% RDA B12. 1,500 Amino acids.
