November 13, 2009 (Washington, DC) — The odds that a child living in a Lyme-endemic area of the United States who presents with a joint effusion will be diagnosed as having Lyme arthritis is 29%. The odds are even higher (44%) if the affected joint is the knee. The leukocyte count is useful in distinguishing between septic and Lyme arthritis, researchers announced here.
“There was an increase in the number of cases in the United States by 101% over the past 15 years, possibly due to increased recognition of Lyme disease,” said Aristides I. Cruz Jr., MD, resident in the Department of Orthopedics and Rehabilitation at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. During his presentation, he noted that 93% of all Lyme disease cases arise from 10 states, most in the Northeast United States.

Linda’s comment: This is so very important for those of us with chronic illness, although if healthy people pay attention they might not become chronically ill. We use to be able to say that if you bought organic, you would be safe and get no GMO, however that is not true today. If you see USDA organic, research it, as I have found during my own research that USDA can not be trusted.
I have found that my lifelong daily detox, helps me tremendously should I happen to ingest some of the GMO poisons. If I eat something that is GMO, I immediately take a handful of Wobenzyme systemic enzyme and it helps to eat up the poison. I use Wobenzyme also on an empty stomach, usually 8-10 3 times daily, and this was a big part of my protocol while fighting the Cancers. Make sure you get the “real” Wobenzyme from Germany and not the wanna-be….read the label…

2009 GM Crop Fact File
ARE GM CROPS TAKING OVER GLOBAL AGRICULTURE?
• GM plantings make up a mere 2.4% of global agricultural crop land
• Nearly 80% of the global area planted to GM crops was in just three countries – the US, Argentina and Brazil
• The US alone plants over 50% of the world’s GM crops
• Less than 3% of cropland in India and China is planted with GM crops, almost exclusively just 1 crop – GM cotton
ARE GM CROPS EXPANDING IN EUROPE?
- In the 27 countries of the European Union, GM crop cultivation represents a mere 0.21% of agricultural land
- The number of hectares of GM crops fell last year in Europe
- EuropaBio inflated the figures for GM crops grown in Europe by almost a quarter to mask the decline in the area of GM crops being grown has actually fallen in Europe every year since 2005.
WHAT GM CROPS ARE BEING GROWN?
- Most investment has gone into a small number of crops and traits targeted toward large-scale commercial farming
- Only four crops – soya, maize, cotton and canola (oilseed rape) – comprise virtually 100% of GM agriculture
- GM rice, wheat, tomatoes, sweetcorn, potatoes and popcorn have all been rejected as unacceptable in the global marketplace
- GM papaya cultivation in Hawaii has been declining over several years.
DO GM CROPS MATCH THE HYPE?
