Food Additives...The Ticking Time Bomb
David Icke
You see this in the stream of PR spokespeople wheeled out to peddle government or corporate denials that their actions or products are harming the population. They are mobile mouths whose job is to take the obvious and spin the facts until the water is swirling with mud.
You sometimes see them representing the interests of, say, the alcohol industry, and then a year or so later they turn up on the screen again as official apologists for something completely different. It matters not to them because it's just a job with a pay check in the post - and their job is to lie for money.
A corporate spokesman
This week the PRs for the food cartel have been squirming their way around the TV studios trying to mitigate the effects on sales of a report funded by the UK Food Standards Agency that found that chemical food additives have significant effects on the behaviour of children.
In my books, and many and various publications and studies outside the mainstream, this has been stated for years. In fact, I was talking about this very subject back in the 1980s when I was a national spokesman for the British Green Party.
I had seen the effect of Coca Cola on my then young son Gareth. On the odd occasion he would drink the stuff he became immediately hyper. We even concocted a drink for him that we called 'special Coke' that looked the same, but didn't contain the crap.
Some people who also saw the connection between additives and their children's behaviour have been campaigning for more than 30 years to highlight these effects and, like all those who challenge orthodoxy, they have been branded 'crazy', 'extreme' and 'paranoid'.
So the findings of this week's Southampton University study for the Food Standards Agency was merely 'revealing' what anyone with a modicum of brain activity had understood for decades. It gave a massively understated, but still welcome, explanation for what these chemical cocktails do to the minds of children (and adults if the truth really be told).
The study, published in the medical journal, The Lancet, involved 153 three-year-olds and 144 eight-year-olds who were given drinks containing either additives or a placebo. The additives were combinations of the colourings sunset yellow (E110), tartrazine (E102), carmoisine (E122) ponceau 4R (E124), allura red (E129), quinoline yellow (E104), and the preservative sodium benzoate (E211). The latter can be found in soft drinks like Dr Pepper, Fanta, Sprite and Pepsi Max.
Afterwards, some children were watched by trained observers, parents and teachers while others were given computer hyperactivity tests. The conclusions were summed up by the study leader, Professor Jim Stevenson:
'The present findings, in combination with the replicated evidence for the artificial food colour and additives effects on the behaviour of three-year-old children, lent strong support for the case that food additives exacerbate hyperactive behaviours.'
In short, the study cost £750,000 of taxpayers' money to tell us that the massive grey thing with the big ears and long nose is indeed an elephant.
'Maybe they'll see me now ...'
The study found that, on average, the children who were given additives in these experiments produced some ten per cent of the symptoms of children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder - even from the relatively small amounts they consumed. This when, according to a report first published in the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine in 1994, about 75 per cent of the Western diet is made up of processed foods, each person consuming an average of between eight and ten pounds of food additives per year, some considerably more.
So this week's Food Standards Agency study was akin to finding a hurricane and reporting a westerly breeze. What we actually have on our hands here is a gathering catastrophe of unimaginable proportions as the brain-poisoned children of today become the adults of not long from now. The effect of this corporate child abuse is cumulative and with daily repetition has the potential to do permanent damage to the mental and emotional state of the population.
It is sobering to read the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine background to child hyperactive disorders and their short and long-term effects given that every time we feed our children this chemical crap we are making it more like that these affects will occur:
Retrospective studies have shown that children diagnosed as hyperactive as an infant suffered considerably more from varied health/ behavioural problems than non-hyperactives. For example, a research database on 357 hyperactive children, based at Surrey University, showed that 82% of them were already extremely restless as an infant, 61% suffered from poor and irregular sleep patterns, 75% displayed excessive crying or screaming, 52% rejected any contact or affection, 50% were poor feeders, 74% seemed to have an exaggerated thirst and 67% suffered from colic.
Hyperactive toddlers are described as children who never walk but run, are incapable of playing with any object for more than a few seconds, and who combine unnaturally impulsive behaviour with a complete lack of any apprehension or fear. When at school, these children are usually extremely restless, inattentive, distractible and frequently display aggressive and anti-social tendencies.
Primarily because of these behavioural problems, their academic school performance is generally poor and failed school grades are not uncommon. In fact, follow-up studies of young adolescents diagnosed as hyperactives when children have shown, when compared to controls, a significantly higher drop-out and expulsion rate from schools, a greater involvement in both drug and alcohol abuse, a higher rate of motor vehicle accidents, a greater risk of developing criminal tendencies, as well as appearing before courts.
One follow up study on 64 adolescents, diagnosed as hyperactive when children, showed that when they reached the ages of 17 to 25 years, 25% of them were still engaged in antisocial and delinquent behaviour. Similar findings have also been observed by other investigators.
In short, the prognosis of hyperactive children, when they mature into adulthood, seems to be relatively poor. Despite an apparent decrease in their ratings of hyperactivity over the years, as adolescents and adults they still seem to continue to use impulsive rather than reflective approaches to cognitive tasks, are still distractible, generally emotionally immature, have a poor self-image and are frequently unable to maintain goals.
Five years ago the United Nations agencies declared that up to one in five of the world's children was suffering from mental or behavioural problems and this, they said, would lead to serious public health consequences in the future unless more was done to address the issue. Depressive disorders were the fourth leading cause of disease and disability and were predicted to rise to second place by 2020.
Yes, of course, there are many causes for this in the insane world we have created, but let us not for a second underestimate the contribution made by the chemical cocktails children consume in what bravely passes for food and drink - and the same with the violent behaviour of some young people.
How ironic that giving children sweets and soft drinks is considered an act of kindness when these 'treats' are systematically poisoning them in mind and body. And we hear constantly about the dangers of young people getting hooked on drugs when they are being legally drugged by the day through what they eat and drink. It is only a matter of degree.
What is a drug? A cocktail of chemicals. What is in corporate food products? Exactly.
Food and drink additives are a highly significant contribution to the war on the human body-computer. There are many access codes - vibrational, electrical and chemical. They're all vibrational fields in the end, but they take different forms. Everything is an expression of everything else, so a chemical will affect the body vibrationally and a vibrational/electrical field can affect the body's chemical balance. This means that when the body is destabilised chemically it disrupts the electrical systems which, in this reality, affect thought and emotion.
That's a given when you see how people are constantly imbalanced mentally and emotionally by medical and other drugs. The body itself has the ability to think and express emotion and our Infinite Awareness communicates with this reality through the body's electrical systems. If the body is chemically imbalanced the electrical communication short-circuits with the endless consequences that we see in medical and psychiatric hospitals and makes it far more difficult for our Infinite Awareness to express itself through the body-computer.
That's the idea behind it all at the level of the Shadow People. They want to destabilise the body-computer in every way they can to stop people connecting to states of awareness that can open their minds to their plight and their true and infinite nature.
A common theme in chemical food and drink additives, the poisons used in the crop growing and animal production processes, medical drugs and vaccines is their effect on genetics and brain activity. This is what you would expect when suppressing body and brain function is what this is all about. They hide this agenda by announcing false causes for diseases and complaints that their poisons are really responsible for. An example is sun tan lotion. We are told that skin cancer is caused by too much exposure to the Sun when the main cause is the chemicals in sun block.
This campaign to confuse is peopled by an army of corporate PRs, government spokesmen and 'health experts', all pay-rolled to deny what an idiot can see. They use every diversion and scam as they bob and weave to stop the truth landing a punch and they avoid at all costs a branch of medicine known as epidemiology. To them it is spelt d..i..s..a..s..t..e..r.
Epidemiology derives from the Greek and means 'the study of what is upon the people'. It observes the population, often by using statistical evidence, to identify health problems and their causes. For example, it would look at the correlation between the introduction and expansion of food additives against the changes in the mental and physical health of the people who consume them. Epidemiological studies have shown a clear connection between the two that cannot be denied, only obscured by PR speak and the pig-trough 'scientists' and 'doctors' who will insist that black is white so long as the corporate suit has arrived with the readies.
But epidemiological studies of our own by the general population - better known as personal experience - are making life an increasing nightmare for the men and women from Bullshitville. 'Don't tell me there is no effect when little Johnnie goes crazy after the second swig.'
We need to take that a stage further and stop buying this trash just because it makes life easier or our children are addicted to demand it. If they demanded the poison bottle would we reach for the top shelf? Of course not, so why do we do it in the shopping aisle?
The additives that scramble our children's minds are only there as a sales gimmick to make the product look more colourful or trick the brain into decoding more taste than is really there. The corporations couldn't give a damn about children or the mayhem they are causing and stoking up for the future. Mr. Bottom Line is the governor of everything.
Government agencies that supposed to protect the population are invariably in league with, or far too close to, the industries they are meant to be regulating. This explains the pathetic response by the Food Standards Agency this week to its own report. Is it going to ban additives in food now it has found how harmful they are? Er, no. Parents should just be careful about what they give their children to eat, it said, doffing its cap to Mr. McDonald.
The responsibility always falls on the victims of corporate chicanery while the culprits are allowed to continue on their wicked way. The public is now being threatened with higher bills and even prosecution with regard to the disposal of household waste when the vast majority of this comes from the ludicrous levels of packaging used by the corporations to sell their products to the eye. While the people are targeted over the symptom of this problem, those who are the cause go on unchallenged. 'Twas always so.
So it's down to us to sort out this mess by refusing to buy the crap whenever we can. The body-computer can handle this stuff in here and there doses, but we are now being overwhelmed by the cascade of chemicals in the mass produced 'food' spewing from the Frankenstein factories.
The corporate food and drink cartel, controlled by the Illuminati families, is systematically poisoning the people (posting a virus in the body-computer) and to this end they have created a problem and offered (for sale) the solution. The problem is the ever-more hectic pace of life that people are pressured to lead, chasing clocks that appear to be moving with a quickening pace. The solution is ready meals, fast food and poison-on-demand.
You don't have time to prepare food that won't poison your body and mind? Don't worry, we'll make the poison taste just great - your kids will love it.
Shhhhhhhhhhh! What's that I hear? There it is again. Can you hear it? It's getting louder all the time ...
... Tick, tick, tick, tick ....
