Oldest Living Man
http://www.webpronews.com/worlds-oldest-living-man-just-turned-115-2012-04
Amazing article about this gentleman who just turned 115 year old. He contributes he's longevity to his upturned face to the sun...perhaps so. He gets proper quantity of vitamin D where most Americans are depleted in a most important vitamin..including myself. I must take 50,000mg once a week. They are a prescription form. This is very strange as I live in Florida!
This gentleman is also a farmer, thus he always worked hard, pushed his body to the limits. Hard working individuals with low stress do well in old age. He also ate very healthy. His food source was his own NON GMO ( meaning not genetically modified in any way) and purely organic. He lives in Japan and sad to say with last years natural disasters who to say how contaminated his plot of land may be now.
The problem we have majorly in America that most people do not realize is that our food has been majorly taken over by genetically modified seeds..even the seedless grapes we enjoy...they are not natural but modified. Corn, soy, rice, alfalfa, wheat and many other products have been modified without our consent.
Common sense should tell and individual that once inside the body if not natural what will happen..food was created to keep us living and health..........in perfect conjunction with the human body....but now it has been hampered with. So if the genetically modified compound/food is not in its natural state and can never be reversed than does that not tell us that the food will some how in some way alter us too? Look at the rate of Americans fat around their waist as never before or girls in pre puberty?
Cows given GMO alfalfa and bovine therapy are miscarrying over 50% of their calves. They are milking half of their rate, thus giving to slaughter early and into the food chain. This ends up in our bodies. The mild also does. Thus our own hormones are out of control.
Thanks to Monsanto (makers of round up) who had government contracts as far back as the Vietnam war, they are the creators of agent Orange, are the current license holders of GMO seeds. Obama gave them the full go ahead, no restrictions and no gov checks this year. Also several Monsanto people are now in the gov and who holds many gov contracts and also gives the gov tons of hard cold cash? If I were you I would take this seriously and learn about them because they have been behind the congress for YEARS trying to get them to pass REGULATIONS on vitamins, supplements and organic foods. If this does pass............it will only be given out by a doctors prescription.
Several doctors have admitted if they do not suggest big pharma drugs they could get their licenses taken away. Dr's have been driven into being drug pushers here in America. We live in a scary place and must educate ourselves as quickly as possible. Do you think a Dr. will prescribe a vitamin (and lose his license in the process) or push a prescription drug for big pharma as instructed. Dr's are already being watched by big gov to see how much they are prescribing. Through the media the gov has the general public thinking it is a good thing to catch Dr's from over prescribing but actually it is to make sure they are prescribing. One of the most prescribed drugs is one of the most dangerous and unnecessary...ZOCOR cholesterol medication. It is making people sick and my uncle died from it.

Etsy is putting the clamp down on fraudulent sellers on here...............thank goodness. You know what I am talking about. The leather bracelet I bought for 9.99 but my sister old wholesaler used to sell to boutiques already made! I was dumb enough to think..oh..this is handmade..it wasn't. It was exactly like the ones she used to sell.
My sister discovered last night that under SUPPLIES...............several suppliers are selling already assembled jewelry all set to list. This makes my blood boil. I remember when Etsy first came out some years ago. I was hooked. Organic cotton, hippies, non gmo cotton, edibles, beautiful clothing, simple clothing, unique & different.................nothing from questionable countries that use slave sweat shops.........I bought but eventually closed that account. It is a shame that Etsy has turned into such a huge uncontrolled environment of people taking advantage of a beautiful thing. I am an upcycled...............always have been, always will be. I was raised that way. Off the land, my parents had multiple gardens on their land and at my grandparents. We canned fruits and veg's. Mom sewed our clothing. Mom and dad recycled everything and still to this day live by "Waste no want not." I am happy to have grown up that way. I do know the limit though of when it is time to properly recycle and donate.
Please take a moment to read the article. Think about...perhaps we should try not to purchase from fraudulent buyers who should be ashamed of themselves.

Chocolate, diet, Cortizone Connection & Stress
As I has been craving chocolate for five days or so I had cracked open a little jar or whipped dark chocolate and everyday took a little.....just a little on my finger.......oh yummm...and that was it...........so as it was my Birthday I took several large fingers full and was as happy as can be. In the old days I could eat a whole plate full and ice cream to suit. Now I am in my forties and must keep my figure and maintain my wrinkle free face.
I get asked often how do i look so young...one it is genetics...........two it is because i began to use skincare when i was 13 years old. One mistake women make is they do not make up-sweep motions of lotion on their neck...so many neglected necks. It does not matter how rich a woman is or how many surgeries if she does not take care of her neck, her age will show .....she can have a beautiful face lift but a sagging neck is a tell all. Unfortunately many young females look aged at an accelerated rate........due to poor diet, smoking, drugs, not protecting skin from the sun rays, stress.
Stress is a major contributor to aging........much more so than anyone could have imagined twenty years ago.
A very good book to read on this subject would be the "Cortisone Connection" as stress
contributes toxins into fat..............thus fat trapped in return poisoning us.
It does not matter how much we diet,
It does not matter how much we exercise,
if we are stressed out,
we will never lose the weight when we are older.
So ladies, try to take deep breathes all day long, read the book, drink lots and lots of water, use lots of lotion on your neck, use excellent skin care.......and blow off the stress. It may be easier said than done but it is necessary...for your mental well being and for your health..not just general but also your heart health.

My first sewing experience~ LOL!!
Do you love to craft? To feel materials, substances with your finger tips and take them into an amazing creation? Do you have the soul of an artist screaming to get out?
When I was young I remember how much I loved to draw, to curl paper, to draw scrolls. At the age of eight or nine I began my first sewing project......oh how I worked on that shirt.
It was a simple, no brainer shirt that had to be only sewed on the sides and the shoulders down to the end of the arms. Just two pieces of fabric. It took me FOREVER to make this shirt. The sewing machine bobbin kept jamming over and over. I had to learn to use seam ripper!
After several weeks the final product was completed. A white lightweight knit, long sleeve shirt. The problem was....one sleeve was a 3/4th sleeve and the other was six inches past my hand! LOL!
I was so stubborn and just sick sick sick of using that darn seam ripper........I could not stand it any more!
So I proudly worn that shirt to a special event. I could care less that one are was pushed up extra bulky and the other is not.
Somewhere, deep in a hidden box..lays a picture of me in that shirt. My older sister had kept it as what we call a bribe pix! That shirt went into my closet until I could not stand to look at it anymore. It went into the trash..but the memories of it still makes me laugh until this day~
