New Chapter, Vitacost and Consumer Wellness Center Team Up to Donate Nutrition to Schoolchildren
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
(NaturalNews) New Chapter is widely regarded as providing some of the most natural, innovative and popular nutritional products in the natural health marketplace. They're the makers of Zyflamend, Host Defense and many other products I've recommended here on NaturalNews. Last year, they rolled out an impressive line of delicious whole-food complexed multivitamins for kids: EveryKid Brilliant Berries and EveryKid Awesome Apple.
These multivitamins are all-natural, made with organic ingredients and give kids a great-tasting source of fruit nutrition, complete with all the whole-food complexed vitamins, phytonutrients, bioflavonoids and other natural elements found in these real food sources. The main ingredients on the EveryKid Brilliant Berries product, for example, are: Organic Strawberry, Organic Tart Cherry, Organic Blackberry, Organic Blueberry, and Organic Raspberry.
It's sweetened with evaporated cane juice and organic molasses -- completely natural sweeteners that are safe and healthy for active kids.
Donating New Chapter's outstanding products to schools and non-profits
Now, New Chapter president Paul Schulick -- who is a pioneer in creating sustainable solutions for healthy living (http://www.newchapter.com/page/a-lo...) -- has created a new plan for bringing EveryKid nutrition to potentially tens of thousands of children across America!
Together with Vitacost (www.Vitacost.com), the Consumer Wellness Center (www.ConsumerWellness.org) and NaturalNews, New Chapter (www.NewChapter.com) has launched a program to provide tens of thousands of EveryKid products FREE to public schools, non-profits and public institutions that serve children in the U.S.
This offer is available exclusively through Vitacost.com, and schools or institutions wishing to take advantage of this program must order the product in increments of 108, paying only shipping and handling charges (which are quite modest).
Let me repeat all this, because it's an astonishingly great opportunity: Any schools, non-profits or public service institutions may order EveryKid nutrition powders in increments of 108 units (each unit contains 7 individual servings) from Vitacost.com and pay only the shipping & handling, with the product itself being completely free!
(This offer is only good while supplies of 7-count EveryKid last.)
Seriously. The product is free. This is part of New Chapter's gift to society. There are no strings attached. This is all about getting nutrition into the bodies of our nation's children, and New Chapter and Vitacost.com are spearheading this effort to reach as many children in the U.S. as possible.
How to get free NewChapter products for the kids
If you work with a school, non-profit or other public service institution, and you'd like to take advantage of this here's how to get in on this:
Email [email protected] with your name, organization's name, street address, telephone, email and shipping address. (Valid only in the United States.) A Vitacost representative will provide you with further details on payment for the shipping & handling (which is very reasonable).
There is a limited quantity available for this special donation, so if you're interested in getting your share of these nutrition powders for the children in your school (or non-profit), I encourage you to take advantage of this right away.
I can't think of a school anywhere in the country that wouldn't want to take advantage of this. As has been shown in numerous studies, more nutrition for kids means better grades, fewer disciplinary problems and improved learning experiences. And New Chapter's EveryKid can be an important part of an effective nutrition program in any school!
How to get EveryKid nutrition powders for your own kid
How do you get EveryKid nutrition powders for your own family? It's easy... just order EveryKid powders (28 serving count) directly from Vitacost at an amazing discount of 55% off retail price right now:

Here's the cool part: For every 28-count box of EveryKid product that you purchase from Vitacost, New Chapter and Vitacost will donate a 7-count box of the same product to the Consumer Wellness Center!
(Use coupon code NatNews3 to activate the donation.)
Yep, you can now help the CWC (our non-profit organization) acquire free nutritional products for kids simply by purchasing EveryKid for your own children. We will then take those donated nutrition powders and distribute them to schools, where the children can benefit from the outstanding nutrition they provide.
It's a great way to help others while helping your own family, too!
Two ways to help children receive improved nutrition starting right now
Remember, there are two things being announced here today:
1) The large-scale donation of EveryKid nutrition products to schools, non-profits and public service institutions (just pay S&H through Vitacost.com).
2) A 55% discount on your own purchases of EveryKid, with each purchase resulting in yet another donation of a 7-count package to the Consumer Wellness Center. Use coupon code NatNews3 at Vitacost.com to make this donation happen.
Flintstone's vitamins, Nazi Germany and war crimes - What you didn't know
Because you care about your child's nutrition, I urge you to be extremely cautious about what's contained in their vitamins. Just because a product calls itself a "vitamin" doesn't mean it's made from real food. In fact, most popular vitamins are made from chemicals, not food, and many contain artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners and other undesirable elements.
As an example, of what I'm talking about, consider the ingredients of Flintstone's Vitamins, a popular children's vitamin product made by the drug company Bayer:
Sorbitol, Dicalcium Phosphate, Magnesium Phosphate, Choline Bitartrate, Sodium Ascorbate, Ferrous Fumarate, Gelatin, Natural & Artificial Flavors (including fruit acids), Pregelatinized Starch, Vitamin E Acetate, Stearic Acid, Carrageenan, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Soybean, Castor), Magnesium Stearate, Zinc Oxide, Niacinamide, FD&C Red #40 Lake, D-Calcium Pantothenate, FD&C Yellow #6 Lake, Aspartame�, Xylitol, FD&C Blue #2 Lake, Cupric Oxide, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Sucrose, Riboflavin, Thiamine Mononitrate, Vitamin A Acetate, Beta-Carotene, Monoammonium Glycyrrhizinate, Folic Acid, Potassium Iodide, Biotin, Vitamin D, Magnesium Oxide, Vitamin B12.

I don't know about you, but I wouldn't let my kids near this concoction of chemicals. Hydrogenated vegetable oil, aspartame, FD&C Blue #2, artificial flavors... are you kidding me? How does Bayer claim this "supports healthy brain function?" Bayer even says this product is made "with Choline, a nutrient found in nature in Breast Milk."
Technically, that may be true, but the marketing text is quite a stretch in my view.
Plus, as some NaturalNews reader may know, Bayer is the chemical company created by the breakup of IG Farben, the Nazi Germany chemical conglomerate found guilty of committing war crimes against human beings for its role in using Jews for medical experiments. Learn more about IG Farben here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IG_Farben
As Gabriel Donohoe wrote on NaturalNews in 2008 (http://www.naturalnews.com/024534.html): At the Nuremberg Trials, 24 of the IG Farben directors and other industrialists were charged with genocide, slavery, and other crimes against humanity. Many of these unscrupulous villains would later play a key role in reinstating several IG Farben companies as huge players in the pharmaceutical/chemical industry not only in Germany but also throughout Europe and the United States. And several of these former Nazis would be pivotal in devising a pan-European trade association which has now evolved into the European Union.
Dr. Fritz ter Meer, a director of IG Farben who was directly involved in developing the nerve gas, Zyklon-B, which killed millions of Jews, was sentenced to seven years in prison but was released after four years through the intervention of Rockefeller and J.J. McCloy, then U.S. High Commissioner for Germany. An unrepentant Fritz ter Meer, guilty of genocide and crimes against humanity, returned to work in Bayer where he served as Chairman for more than 10 years, until 1961.
This same ter Meer, a convicted Nazi war criminal, went on to become one of the initiators of the Codex Alimentarius Commission in 1962, an organization that was nurtured by the World Health Organization (WHO), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and latterly the World Trade Organization (WTO).
So here's the question to parents who are buying Flintstone's vitamins today: Do you really want your child eating vitamins made by a chemical company whose former Chairman was a convicted war criminal involved in the creation of Zyklon-B? If so, keep on buying those Flintstone's vitamins!
Nutrition is more than mere chemicals, folks. It's about combining nutrients from real food sources wherever possible, and New Chapter is one of the very best nutritional product formulators following this important principle.
And given all the news about hydrogenated oils, artificial colors, aspartame and low-grade minerals, I can't imagine any informed parent actually choosing to feed their child Flintstone's Vitamins. That's my opinion, of course. I'm sure Bayer would disagree, but there's a large amount of good scientific evidence backing up those who are concerned about the long-term health effects of artificial colors, aspartame, hydrogenated oils and other similar ingredients used in low-grade nutritional supplements, especially when consumed by children.
I say: If you love your kid, feed them real nutrition made from whole food complexes. New Chapter's products are a great source for that, and no I'm not being paid to say that. I earn absolutely nothing from writing about this or promoting New Chapter. I'm doing this because this is an unprecedented opportunity to help put great nutrition into the hands of potentially tens of thousands of children across America. And since New Chapter and Vitacost are doing their part to make this possible, I'm happy to do my part, too.
