A girl is dying from being overweight -Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Review - Day 386

This is a continuation to the blog Series review about Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution.

Thus, if you haven't already, I suggest watching Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution and read through the blog series where the question: Who is Responsible for our Children's Education? is asked.

 

 

Brittany Stevens, a 16 years old girl who is overweight, was told by her doctor that her body can sustain itself for no more than 6-7 years and unless she lose weight, she will die.

Without having any support system in place, Brittany was at a point of giving up and in a way, accepted her up coming death before Jamie came into her life and gave her the tools and the support she require to be able to support herself.

 

Here is one example out of millions examples wherein children have no support and no skills to actually live in a way that is best for them; and as the consequences are severe, children are physically threaten as a result of a dysfunctional system.

 

What I have found is that we are busy judging fat people and having so many justification for these judgements inside our minds. Like having a back chat in the nature of: "what, are they not aware of themselves?" or: "I don't understand them, how could they possibly take themselves to this point". And yes, you do not understand; you do not understand the time line that had led them to develop these inner demons that eventually manifested as a point of extreme overweight and on that note, you do not even understand yourself, none of us does. We have no idea how our mind works, where our thoughts are coming from, why our thoughts even exists, why we like or dislike specific things, why our body shaped in this specific way, what are the processes that involve within the physical body and what all of that have to do with the mind. we really do not have a clue and yet, what we do best is judge that which we do not understand and within that, "forget" the most important thing - investigate all things and keep that which is best for all. If we have done so, we would start making an effort to understand and realize all the relationships that involved within each thought that we have, we would also find solutions to prevent predictable problems.

 

Brittany had to courage to expose herself and stand as an example of the consequences of our dysfunctional system and while many of us found ourselves in tears when hearing Brittany's story, none of us was actually standing up and looking at ways to prevent the problem from continue manifesting around the world in general and the US in particular; all of us remained in our comfort zone, judging or blaming or criticising but in no way making a physical stand and do something that is substantial, supportive and applicable for all.

 

SO - the solution is to apply the basic principle of establishing a stable foundation from which human rights can be implemented world wide. We have structured such system and we named it - 'Equal Money System' that would enable each being in this world to have a dignified and worthy life. That would obviously include all the support structure that would ensure these goals.

Will we step out of our comfort zone and make a change in this one life that we have or whether we let random events to be the foundation from which predictable and preventable consequences occurs?

Image vs. Health - Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Review - Day 385

 

This is a continuation to the blog Series review about Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution.

Thus, if you haven't already, I suggest watching Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution and read through the blog series where the question: Who is Responsible for our Children's Education? is asked.

 

This is a direct continuation though to the blog: Dysfunctional Governmental Food Department - Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Review - Day 384 -

 

In Episode 4 of the Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution, Jamie went to raise 150,000$ to sponsor the Program/project of changing the food the children eat within all the schools in the town. From his perspective, he wanted to make sure that the program/project will continue after he is gone so that the change is substantial and stand as a long lasting solution.

 

BUT - apparently, one of the things that is taken into consideration when a committee is in a process of deciding whether or not they will approve the funds required, is the Image of the town within the eyes of America because, if they approve the funds, it is as if they admit that they have Obesity problem and they do not want to present themselves to the world in a way that the world would negatively judge them. Why? Because running a town is like running a business and the way they had justify for themselves is through looking at the following irrationality - "Who would want to bring their money into a town of Obese people?";  "Who would want to make a business with Negatively judged town?"

When Jamie asked a very direct question: "what is more important, Money or Health?" the answer was: "is it not the same"? Now personally, I really don't see the correlation between Money and Health except for the fact that without money you will die but apparently within this current world system but I do not see how the Value of Money is more than the Value of Health.

And if we look at the irrationality that was presented by the committee, doesn't it make more sense that healthy town would attract more potential businesses? Doesn't it make more sense that instead of luring people into a destructive town where they would eventually find out the truth about it, to first correct the problem, prevent it and provide the proper tools to support the population in that town by running a healthy and physically supportive life style so that the business that would come to the town would have an example that a change is possible once proper education and care is in place?

 

We are living in an era where the moral values are skewed and Irrationality became the common standard from which decisions are made based on one's self interest. We are living in an era that money directs decisions without considering all points and making decisions that are based on what is best for all. We are living in an era where we justify to ourselves why it is ok to support a slow and painful death processes so long as we have money to sustain our own self cantered lives on the expanse of others. We are living in an Era of ignorant, unhealthy and uneducated people that are incapable of making the decisions that are best for them and all.

In this point of the evolution of mankind, we should have been much more sophisticated and intelligent although, our physical actions show the contrary. It is time to stop, correct, prevent and change. It is time to evaluate our value systems. It is time to wake up.

Dysfunctional Governmental Food Department - Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Review - Day 384

his is a continuation to the blog Series review about Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution.

Thus, if you haven't already, I suggest watching Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution and read through the blog series where the question: Who is Responsible for our Children's Education? is asked.

 

Within this blog I will be focusing on the fourth problem that I've identified when watching the Food Revolution series - Dysfunctional Governmental Food and Health Department

 

As we know, what the children eat at school is dependent on specific guideline written by the Governmental food department which for instance, considers Chips as Vegetable as well as mash potatoes made from already made processed powder. With such "specific" guidelines and standards, it is no wonder that so many children suffers from overweight.

 

The food department also worry about children not drinking milk and so, they supply them with sugar milk with added colors and flavour to ensure that they will drink the milk. They forgot to mention though, that the amount of sugar in one flavoured milk contain twice the amount of Soda drinks - lots of sugar.

 

In the Food Revolution TV series, Jamie found out that the school changed the agreement with him to stop giving the kids the flavoured milk that would slowly kill them but to instead to give them real milk. Interestingly enough, despite of the fact that on the day that the kids only had one choice of milk, they all drank the milk, the food department was worry about it so they instead decided to give them the flavoured milk. So even when the physical evidence showed that there is no real reason to be concerned, the flavoured milk was back on the menu.

So - what is really going on? Why the government forces the children to develop bad eating habits, become overweighed and eventually obese?

 

As I've mentioned in my previous blogs, if you trace the money path, you'll find the answers. The food companies sponsor our politicians and supply them with the money and in return, the politicians would align the guidelines that would benefit the big corporations. Is there any consideration regarding health and the well being of the people? No. not at all.

Fantastic documentaries showing the relationship between the corporations and politics are:

Park Avenue: money, power and the American dream - Why Poverty?

Koch Brothers Exposed

 

So - the answers to our problems are right in front of us - If we want to change things in this world, politics is the way to do it so all we need to do is to make sure that our power doesn't go to the wrong hands but to instead, place ourselves in political positions so that we can direct our future, a future that is best for all.

Join us on the Equal Money Movement and stand as the Key for your child's future.

The Consequences of our eating habits - Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Review - Day 383

This is a continuation to the blog Series review about Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution.

Thus, if you haven't already, I suggest watching Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution and read through the blog series where the question: Who is Responsible for our Children's Education? is asked.

 

Within this blog I will be focusing on the third problem that I've identified when watching the Food Revolution series - Lack of understanding the consequences of our eating habits.

 

2/3 of the Americans are overweighed or obese (http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/overwt.htm) - even though the consequences are visible to say the least, the awareness, the problem and the solution are no where to be seen. If you walk through the path of money, one thing is certain, you will find the answer, you will see the problem and you'll see exactly what needs to be done to not only sort out the problem but also, preventing it from reoccurring however, it appears that we prefer to ignor the problem and continue our destructive lives.

From the Elite's perspective, having the majority of the Americans ignorant is the Elite's bliss because they can continue making money by killing the citizens slowly but surely - I mean, think of it - the money that is spent on fast food/junk food and the money that is spent when treating the consequences is pure profit for the elite. In fact, having healthy people would reduce the Elite's profit and therefore, you cannot expect that the solution will come for far above.

 

What doesn't make sense to me is the parents common statements that they want the best for their child without realizing that with the food they feed their children, they are killing them and ensuring a shorter life span. However, here, we cannot even blame the parents for being ignorant because the system have deliberately created ignorant people who are unable to think for themselves and develop reasoning thinking. So you see, the problem is sever because those that can stand up for a change and take their responsibility where trained by the system to be sheep instead of self leaders and yet, the ones who give the power for the continuation of educating generations of sheep is the same people who were trained to be ignorant sheep - the people, you and me - we are the ones who votes for our leaders to continue training us to believe we are powerless, inferior and with no skills to even think for ourselves. Watch the Century of the Self and College conspiracy to understand what we have become.

 

This is why we now have epidemic disease called obesity; and it is getting worse despite of us seeing the premature death of the people around us due to obesity, heart problems, diabetes - all related to the food we eat, we do nothing to change our eating habits because habits, once becoming habits, are difficult to change for someone who have forced themselves to believe they are powerless to make a change for themselves.

 

So, it is not that we do not understand the consequences, we do, we see it all over. It is that we have accepted and allowed our own self defeat and we literally gave up on ourselves, our lives and the life of our children.

It seems to me that we are waiting for the consequences to get much worse before we act however, as I see it, by the time the consequences would get to a point that would force us to act, it would be already too late.

So, will we stand back and wait or will we act now and prevent that which is still in a preventable stage before it becomes too late? Investigate the Equal Money and the Equal Life foundation and support your children to live where your words and practical actions becomes ONE: "I want what is best for my child" = Ensuring in a practical and physical manner that your child and all other children will actually have the best.

 

 

Parents are the KEY - Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Review - Day 382

This is a continuation to the blog Series review about Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution.

Thus, if you haven't already, I suggest watching Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution and read through the blog series where the question: Who is Responsible for our Children's Education? is asked.

 

Within this blog I will be focusing on the second problem that I've identify when watching the Food Revolution series - Ignorance of Parents with regarding the Nutrition Value of the food their children eat.

 

Not so surprising, Jamie Oliver encounter great resistance when presenting his food revolution. There is a very simple explanation for the resistance - FEAR. Fear to find out that we are actually accountable for the decisions we make and to the consequences to follow these decisions however, being aware of the problem and the consequences normally lead one to great emotions of Guilt which instead of facing what one have accepted and allowed and from there, moving to the correction process, one is possessing oneself with a future projection of guilt and therefore, one would prefer to ignore/deny the problem instead of facing, correcting and make a change. It is actually quiet interesting - we all know deep down who we have become, what we accept and allow and what we would not and despite of knowing that we have made some bad decisions, we would rather continue making these same decisions over and over again but in no way would be willing to admit that we have made some wrong decisions because then we would feel guilty about it. we also know that change isn't as easy as we would like it to be and we will have to work hard for a change to manifest and if there is anything we don't like doing is working hard, be persistent and devoted to make a change - we would rather avoid it now and face the consequences later; only later sometimes is too far gone that the only thing that one would face is one's own death.

 

Ok, back to the point - When Jamie was looking for ways to raise the awareness and receive support for his plan of making the citizens of the town healthier, he decided that he must group the parents together as they are the force that would make things happen if only they understand what they are really allowing their children to eat while being in the supervision of school. He gathered the parents in the school yard and it turns out that the parents were extremely ignorant about the nutrition value of the food their children are eating and so, Jamie showed them and made it presented in such a way that the parents could visually see for them the extent of the problem. So the parents jumped in and decided to support Jamie with his mission and accordingly, Jamie got the school permission to continue his revolutionary plans in the school.

 

As I've mentioned in many blogs before, there is no doubt that parenting doesn't comes with a training manual to assist the parent to be an effective trainer for their children however, from my perspective, parents can no longer play the ignorant card. If you have a child and you want the best for your child then invest your time in doing research! Investigate all things and allow your child only that which is good for them.

 

I mean seriously, didn't you know that eating junk food for breakfast and lunch isn't good for your child's body? Did you really needed Jamie to show you what your children are eating at school? When your child came home and you asked him what did they eat at school for breakfast and they told you they ate Pizza, no alarm went on inside of you? I'm sure it has and yet, you didn't do anything about it because you felt so powerless right?

So parents, realize that you are in fact powerless as an individual but you are very powerful when you gather in a group and you can make a change if you work together. From the smallest to the greater - if we all gather together and stand up for a change that is best for all in this entire world, we will become a powerful group that can make things happen. Look at Bolivia as an example - the minority started to slowly but surely gather together until they were big and powerful enough to make a change on a political level. We must stop resist our fears but rather face them and move on to the correction process so that our children and the generation to come would in fact have the basic foundation to grow from.

 

So if you as a parent understand the problem and can see the solution that we present within the Equal Money System, wouldn't you join the movement to ensure your child health, success, opportunity and dignity in their life? Remember to investigate all things because ignorance is no longer a bliss, it comes with consequences and your children will be the one who would face the consequences that follow your bad decisions. Stop that now, stand up, research, investigate and make a change.

Jamie Oliver - Food Revolution - Day 381

If you haven't already, I suggest watching Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution.

This blog is a continuation to the blog series where the question: Who is Responsible for our Children's Education? is asked.

 

In Jamie Oliver's TV series - Food Revolution Episode 2, there are a few dimensions we should be concern off:

1. Lack of understanding the consequences of our eating habit.

2. Lack of Vocabulary of Children at the age of 6 years.

3. Dysfunctional Governmental Food and Health Department

4. Ignorance of Parents with regarding the Nutrition Value of the food their children eat.

5. Group Mentality and the consequences of Bullying.

 

These are just some of the underlying points that I've seen thus far from watching Episode 1-2.

 

Within this blog, I would be focusing on the problem Number 2 - Lack of Vocabulary of children at the age of 6 years.

When Jamie Oliver went to investigate the children's awareness of a simple things as Vegetables, he found out that the majority, if not all children, couldn't recognized the vegetables he presented to them however, they all knew what Chips or what Ketchup sauce are and of course, what Hamburger is. This is a concerning problem because while all children knew what Ketchup is, none of them knew what a tomato is or how a tomato looks like even when they have seen the tomato in front of their eyes. This was also the case with the chips - they all knew what chips is but couldn't recognize a potato.

 

Now, let me remind you again, these are no age 1-3 children, these are 6 years old children, first grade children that couldn't recognize the basic raw material that all of us eat on a daily basis. These are not poor children that have never had access to raw material such as vegetables, these are middle class children that are not educated in the basic life skills of words. It is no wonder that they didn't want to eat vegetable in their raw form and preferred eating pizza - their eating habits is already corrupted and to correct the problem, a massive education process must be conducted - both to the children, parents and educators.

 

The solution isn't as simple because we are dealing here with generations of brainwashing and physical programming that was initiated and forced by the Elite in this world through political intervention. I mean, the school budget, the food regulation, consumption and menus are all part of the Governmental guidelines despite of the physical evidence that the food the children are eating at school is killing them slowly but surely.

 

The solution therefore start with self education - to actually care about our children and investigate the food we are feeding them. that means that the parents must budget their time to prepare food that support their children's physical body and stand as their example - the parents too must change their eating habits because after all, it is the parents who were brainwashing their children in developing ineffective eating habits.

From here, we expand our care on a global scale and stand up together to change to political force to a force that support Life instead of a force that support the life of a few through money, power and greed.

It is time that we take responsibility for our reality within the understanding that what we see, what is here, is what we have created through our acceptances and allowances.

 

Obviously, the reward is extra ordinary - healthy and conscious society would reduce the diseases in this world, will ensure the well being of our children and will prolong our life span.

We all say we love our children and we want the best for them - well, that start with making sure that their physical body would be supported, taken cared for and regarded. Having dysfunctional body wouldn't be in alignment to your statement that you want the best for your child would it? So - take responsibility for your child, find out what the children are being fed at school and make a stand of what would you accept and allow and what would you not.

Jamie Oliver - Nugget experiment - Day 380

If you haven't already, I suggest watching this short video where Jamie Oliver conducting a fantastic experiment on American kids to find out whether or not they will eat food after they come to know the ingredients as well as the method that was used to make their favourite food - Chicken Nuggets.

 

This blog is a continuation to the blog series where the question: Who is Responsible for our Children's Education? is asked.

 

It is no longer a secret that what we eat is not what is best for the human physical body which is one of the reasons for the increasing cases of health problems such as diabetes, heart failure and so on.

It is also no longer a secret that the habits the child is picking up in their first 7 years would be part of their life style and that life style would pass on generation after generation. For instance, in my case as  a third generation of the holocaust survivals - when I was a child, I was asked to finish everything in my plate even though I wasn't hungry or did not like the food I was given. The reason was that I must appreciate the fact that I have food  to eat because it was not available for my grandparents and from my parents and grandparents perspective, throwing a way my leftovers was not acceptable and therefore, I must eat the food so it won't be wasted.  The holocaust stories where always been used as a manipulation tactic to engage with my morality system and to create emotional disposition within me until I finish the food. (I wonder why these actions by parents in this world do not fall under the definition of Brainwashing). I remember hating the food I was forced to eat and obviously, I cheated and found ways to "finish" my food without eating it and yes, the cats in the field loved it :-).

 

However, as I grow up and went to the world by myself, some of these habits stick within me and I felt guilty when I didn't finish the food I had on my plate and when I saw someone throwing away their food I judged them and defined them as disrespectful. It took me a while to take this programming out once I realized that the food I cannot finish, can be allocate to feed the animals for instance so that everyone can be fed and equilibrium is established. Although, I cannot say that this programming is entirely out as I see every now and then that it kicks in and I do automated actions without my awareness and when I catch myself and investigate the point, it leads me to the past, to wasting food, to guilt and morality.

Thus, it is crucial for us to understand that what we teach our children will be part of their personal character that would influence their lives and the lives of others.

 

In our consumerized world where we seek for the quick fix, the food industry play a major role. Parents simply do not have the time to prepare a decent meal for their children and therefore, the child would eat processed food that can be made instantly. Whether or not the food is supporting the physical body is questionable and as the results shows, the answer is very clear - it does not.

 

In the experiment Jamie Oliver did, one can see the extent of the brainwashing and how the child would choose their food according to their eating habits that they have picked up at home despite of knowing that what they eat is not supportive in anyway whatsoever. From Jamie's perspective, his experiment failed because he was under the impression that the kids won't eat the food after he exposed to them what is the Chicken Nugget is actually made from and yet, all of them wanted to eat the nuggets after it was shaped in the familiar shape the used to eat.

Here we can look at the term 'Free Choice' and ask the question - is there a free choice when a child is exposed to massive brainwashing on a daily basis? Is there really a free choice when the child is not aware to the processes that the body is going through in processing the food that the child is taking in and the consequences thereof?

 

So - this will be one blog in a series of Jamie's Oliver Food Revolution review blogs and I'd like to thank him for taking this point to teach and show society what we are actually doing to our own body, how we are abusing the gift that we have given in birth and how to prevent and correct the current problem in this field of food and brainwashing.
