What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered.

The problem with trying to not buy items from China, Taiwan, etc., and only buying from countries we can "trust," is that those countries may also be buying products from China, Taiwan, etc. to use in making their other products.

I don't know if this is true or not .... I'm passing it along just in case:

MELAMINE (Read to the end)

China milk poisoning incidents make everyone afraid to look at the daily news report.

Every day, the reports are changing. No one can clearly tell us what to eat and what not to eat.1.What really is poisoned milk?It is milk powder mixed with 'MELAMINE'What is Melamine used for?

It is an industrial chemical used in the production of melawares.

It is also used in home decoration. ' US resistant board'We all MUST understand that Melamine is used in INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION

- - - - - it CANNOT be eaten..2.Why is Melamine added to milk powder?The most important nutrient in milk is protein.

And, Melamine has this same protein that contains 'NITROGEN'Adding Melamine into milk reduces the actual milk content required,

and therefore it is cheaper than all milk. So it lowers the capital required

in the production of milk products. Therefore it earns the business man more profit!Below is Melamine; doesn't it look like milk / milk powder?It doesn't have any smell, so cannot be detected.3.When was it discovered that it had been added to milk products.

In 2007, US cats and dogs died suddenly, they found that pet food from China contained Melamine.Early in 2008, in China , an abnormal increase in infant cases of kidney stones was reported.

In August 2008, China Sanlu Milk Powder tested for Melamine Sept. 2008, the New Zealand government asked China to investigate this problemSept. 21, 2008, they found that many food products in Taiwan tested for Melamine4.What happens when Melamine ingested and digested?Melamine remains inside the kidneys. It forms into stones blocking the tubes. Pain will be imminent and the person cannot urinate. Kidney(s) will then swell.Although surgery can remove the stones, it causes irreversible kidney damage. It can lead to the loss of kidney function and will require kidney dialysis or lead to death because of uremia.What is dialysis? In fact, it should be called 'blood washing'; it is filtering all of the body's blood into a machine and then returning the blood back to the body.The whole process takes 4 hours; and it

is necessary to have dialysis

once every 3 days for the rest of your life.Below: A dialysis centerBelow: A large dialysis center

A small hole is required in the arm to insert the sub-dialysis catheter.

Why is it much more serious in babies?

A baby's kidneys are so very small and they drink a lot of milk powder. Below: A baby undergoing dialysis.

China currently has 13,000 infants hospitalizedIt does not matter how much Melamine a human being ingested (eaten).

The important point is:

'MELAMINE SHOULD NOT BE EATEN!'

5.What foods are to be avoided?Foods from China that contain dairy products should be avoided.Remember: Foods with cream or milk should be avoided.6.Which companies are affected?Hereunder are the companies affected with Melamine.

---------------------------------------------------------7.What do we do next?Avoid the above foods for at least six months.If you own or operate a snack bar, a restaurant, or a coffee shops, etc.,

stop selling dairy products for the meantime.If you have infants at home, change to mother's milk or find other substitutes.Finally, share this information with friends so they will understand the risk of milk poisoning. The whole world is very afraid of "Made In China" 'black-hearted' goods.

Do you know how to differentiate which products are made in

the USA , or in the Philippines , in Taiwan , or in China ?

Here's How:

The first 3 digits of the barcode identify the country code

wherein the product was made. For Example: ALL barcodes that start with 690, 691, 692, etc., . .

up to and including 695 are all MADE IN CHINA . Barcodes starting with 471 are printed on products Made in Taiwan . You have a right to know. But the government and related departments

never inform or educate the public. Therefore we must educate ourselves,

be vigilant, and RESCUE ourselves.Today, Chinese businessmen know that consumers will not select products

'Made in China '. So, they make every effort not to show or state the country

of origin on their products. However, you can now refer to the barcode.

DO remember if the first 3 digits are one of those between 690 and 695 inclusive then it is a product Made in China .

OTHER BARCODES:00 ~ 13 USA & CANADA 30 ~ 37 FRANCE 40 ~ 44 GERMANY 49 ~ JAPAN 50 ~ UK 57 ~ Denmark 64 ~ Finland 76 ~ Switzerland and Liechtenstein 628 ~ Saudi-Arabia 629 ~ United Arab Emirates 740 ~ 745 - Central America All 480 Codes are Made in the Philippines. Please inform your family and friends.

Be aware! And help others to be aware!
