RECOMMENDED websites AND BOOKS
In writing this book, we used many different medical and scientific sources including textbooks, journals, and websites sponsored by the National Institutes of Health and other professional organizations. In addition, we found many other consumer-oriented websites and books extremely helpful. Below is a list you, the reader, might also find useful and interesting.
WEBSITES
American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology www.aaaai.org

American Academy of Family Physicians www.aafp. |

To do this, the marketers created websites to attract people looking for health information. The websites offered gifts to those willing to fill out surveys and provide personal information. The companies added each new piece of data to their in-house databases, which allowed them to create profiles of individuals and better understand what motivated them. One marketing executive explained that this transformed customers from "anonymous and unengaged" to "profiled and active."
The data collection began with toddlers watching Big Bird and Ernie on Sesame Street. |

Food allergy websites, books, and magazines can be helpful. For more information, see Recommended Reading and Resources, page 331.
I hope it goes without saying that I'm not suggesting you try the rotation diet with foods that have ever triggered serious, potentially life-threatening reactions. (If you've gone into anaphylactic shock when eating peanuts, don't eat peanuts. Period.) We're talking here about foods that produce annoying, vague, hard-to-pin-down symptoms that you may not even have suspected as being food related. |

One additional benefit to authors is that each article includes an author byline section where authors can include links to their own websites, names of books or organizations they're working with, and other details. This allows authors to publicize themselves and their projects at the bottom of each article that appears on NewsTarget.com.
Honest news from real people
Here at NewsTarget, we believe that independent writers and authors are now the only sources for getting honest, accurate information about what's happening in our world today. |

Didn't the guy know that personal attacks should be reserved for blogs and websites?) I noticed he had his fifth and sixth chakras all blown out the front, and I actually felt sorry for him, but the audience basically told him to pipe down and took away his microphone, returning the Q&A to topics of interest to real raw foodists who are far more interested in learning how to transform the world than bashing each other over minor differences in philosophy. |

Competing health news websites that sell their own nutritional supplements would probably never tell you about this kind of deal anyway! That's why so many readers love NewsTarget: They know we're not financially involved with these companies, which means our recommendations are always 100% honest and independent.

| That's why the FDA has resorted to censorship and intimidation, using the tactics of organized crime operations to threaten cherry growers and marketers into removing any information from their websites that might reveal the truth about the exciting health benefits of cherries. The CherryFlex manufacturer, for example, cannot even link to this very article without being threatened or raided by the FDA!
In 2006, the Life Extension Foundation published an excellent article about the FDA's censorship of cherry growers. It's called FDA Threatens to Raid Cherry Orchards. |

Now you can do a search for chlorella and find many websites having these long, humongous write-ups about this phenomenal stuff. It is becoming a big thing, which just makes me very happy. There are some signs that we are waking up. Again, going back to what I said earlier, I feel that I am in the forefront.
I need to keep knocking down walls. I need to do better and better things so that the people that come behind me can just pick it up and run with it. |

They pulled product ingredients from websites like drugstore.com and alta.com which specialize in online cosmetics sales. For some brands not sold online (such as Estee Lauder and Avon), they bought products and entered ingredients by hand or contacted the companies. As an example of how difficult it could be to get information: volunteers with Women's Voices for the Earth spent months e-mailing Estee Lauder to ask for product ingredients — for two products at a time, since that's all the company would release in a single e-mail. It was tedious work. |

You can purchase formulations at compounding pharmacies with a physician's prescription or over the counter at most health food stores and some natural product websites.
Here is the bad news: some over-the-counter progesterone creams are better than others. The reason for this discrepancy is that there is no regulatory body that oversees the production or standardization of manufacturing so-called natural products. This means that there is great variation among the many over-the-counter progesterone creams on the market today. |

Reporters are also able to include an author byline to be published at the end of each article, in which reporters may place hyperlinks to their other projects (books, websites, companies, products, etc.).
The benefits to Citizen Journalist reporters are:
The NewsTarget Network (comprised of NewsTarget.com and several hundred other topic-specific news sites) provides instant visibility and wide readership for quality authors / reporters.
The Adsense placement provides near-instant revenue for reporters whose articles are accepted for publication. |

By the mid-1990s, websites had sprung up offering trips to study Chinese medicine "in the style of Bill Moyers." Martial-arts centers added qigong teachers to their staff, books began to be published (a quick search in 2007 on Amazon.com turned up close to two thousand titles), and commercial videos about qigong did brisk sales under titles like "Secrets of China."51 In 1997, the city and county of San Francisco went so far as to proclaim November 20-26 "Qigong Week. |

Please note that I've included URLs whenever possible, but given the realities of the Internet, where websites get updated often, and the fact that this book was five years in the making, some links cited may no longer be active. Also, in some instances only the URL of an abstract (rather than the full study) is included, because to get the complete article, you need to purchase it online (which I did). If the URL was really lengthy, I simply listed the name of the study, again because of space limitations. |

You may also check out the many websites that I found helpful while researching the origin, history, and benefits of the powerhouse foods. These sites are included in the References section beginning on page 369. And, I've included my one-week sample menu plan (Appendix A) to help you get started.
Perhaps the two main dilemmas you will face along your path of the 101 foods are which food you will try first and where you will keep this book! Will it be kept among the cookbooks? Health and diet books? Resource guides? On your green tea/coffee table for all to enjoy? |

Also, local farmer's markets can be a great source for organic foods, often at lower prices than you will pay in the supermarket or health food store.

You're forwarding articles to friends, posting our CounterThink cartoons on websites, buying our books from Truth Publishing and taking grassroots action on subjects that really matter (like trying to help us ban direct-to-consumer drug advertising, which would save tens of thousands of lives each year in the United States alone).
When vendors call me with compliments, they're talking about YOU! "NewsTarget readers are the greatest!" they'll say. Or, "Where did you find such wonderful people? |

Not surprisingly, some websites are counterfeiting the CITES certificates with help from Photoshop. By photo-editing the certificate found on DesertBurn.com or other websites, they can create their own genuine-looking CITES certificate, even though their hoodia remains counterfeit. A real CITES certificate will clearly show the name of the importer and exporter for the hoodia. A fake CITES certificate will usually have these whited out.
This is why laboratory testing of the hoodia sample is the only way to be 100% certain of its authenticity. |

These stories are posted across the NewsTarget Network (a collection of websites focused on specific topics). NewsTarget.com focuses on health, NewEnergyReport.org covers emerging energy stories, Counterthink.org explores "alternative" news, and so on. All stories are published free of charge and remain live on the website permanently (they don't disappear in two weeks like you see on many news websites).
We also throw in the occasional intelligent satire or comedy story, usually on Fridays, to lighten the message and include some variety. |

Check out both of those websites for your raw food ingredients and your raw food information -- a lot of information that goes way beyond raw foods into really personal development and spirituality. Just getting the bigger picture about what it's like to be alive today is key. It's a very interesting time to be alive and it's been a very interesting conversation with you, David.
