Dietary supplement is a product that contains vitamins, minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino acids, enzymes, and/or other ingredients intended to supplement the diet. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has special labeling requirements for dietary supplements and treats them as foods, not drugs.

Manufacturers and distributors of dietary supplements and dietary ingredients are prohibited from marketing products that are adulterated or misbranded. That means that these firms are responsible for evaluating the safety and labeling of their products before marketing to ensure that they meet all the requirements of DSHEA and FDA regulations.

Wars of ancient history were about possessions, territory, power, control, family, betrayal, lover's quarrel, politics and sometimes religion.

But we are in the Modern era and supposedly more educated and enlightened .

Think about this. Don't just brush off these questions.

  • Why is RELIGION still involved in WARS? Isn't religion supposed to be about PEACE?
  • Ask yourself; What religion always campaign to have its religious laws be accepted as government laws, always involved in wars and consistently causing WARS, yet insists that it's a religion of peace?

WHY??

There are only two kinds of people who teach tolerance:
  1. The Bullies. They want you to tolerate them so they can continue to maliciously deprive you. Do not believe these bullies teaching tolerance, saying that it’s the path to prevent hatred and prejudice.
  2. The victims who are waiting for the right moment to retaliate. They can’t win yet, so they tolerate.

Housewives grow organic vegetables

BALANGA CITY, Philippines — More than two weeks after the military declared Bataan as insurgency-free, two suspected members of the Rebolusyonaryong Hukbong Bayan (RHB) were arrested by the military and police in an operation in Samal town.

Senior Superintendent Arnold D. Gunnacao, Bataan police director, said the joint police and army operation led to the arrest of Rufino Pascual, alias “Pidiong,” of Barangay Imelda, Samal, and Salvador Dadural, alias “Ka Bill,” “Jomell,” and “Buddy,” of Barangay San Juan, also in Samal.

Supt. Allan Macapagal, who led the police team, said they had to disarm Dadural who had in his possession a .38-caliber pistol loaded with five bullets.

Gunnacao said that upon further verification of records, it was found that Pascual is also wanted for murder in the shooting-death of a certain Jeperson Manalili.

Housewives grow organic vegetables

BALANGA CITY, Bataan- Three years ago, some 25 housewives from barangay Cataning organized themselves into the KAANIB (Kasama Ani sa Barangay).

Since idle homelots in subdivisions in the barangay become garbage dumping areas, the group decided to borrow these lots for them to work on.

But first they have to be equipped with the necessary skill to plant organic vegetables. Vegetable experts from the Department of Agriculture Regional Office’s High Value Commercial Crops Program (HVCC) gave them a hands-on training on veggie planting.

A 600 sq meter lot served as their experimental plot. The Balanga City Agricultural Office gave them plastic mulch and organic fertilizer in this initial trial. They planted eggplants, tomatoes, siling labuyo, siling berde, pipino, okra, and ampalaya. Along the perimeter fence, they planted papaya and ube.

From the training, they learned to produce their own organic insecticide. They fermented for a week the mixture of gin, ginger, kakawati, sili, garlic, neem tree leaves, onions, and sugar. Another concoction is the foliar spray made from the mixture of sugar, gin and gills, entrails, and guts of fishes.

KAANIB president Zenaida Tomas enthused that the housewives have earned as much as P3,000 from the sales of their harvest. Three housewives cultivate one vegetable bed. This way, all of them have some produce to sell.

The group has already borrowed 2,000 sq m of idle subdivision lots which they transformed into beds of organic vegetables.

Backyard planting of organic vegetables not only made the housewives make use of their time productively but also provided them with additional income DA Information officer Jun Espiritu added.
