“…… Should I use Doctors and Drugs to Heal Me or Spiritual Methods?

"Dear Kryon, I have heard that you should stay natural and not use the science on the planet for healing. It does not honor God to go to a doctor. After all, don't you say that we can heal with our minds? So why should we ever go to a doctor if we can do it ourselves? Not only that, my doctor isn't enlightened, so he has no idea about my innate or my spiritual body needs. What should I do?"

First, Human Being, why do you wish to put so many things in boxes? You continue to want a yes and no answer for complex situations due to your 3D, linear outlook on almost everything. Learn to think out of the 3D box! Look at the heading of this section [above]. It asks which one should you do. It already assumes you can't do both because they seem dichotomous.

Let's use some spiritual logic: Here is a hypothetical answer, "Don't go to a doctor, for you can heal everything with your mind." So now I will ask: How many of you can do that in this room right now? How many readers can do that with efficiency right now? All of you are old souls, but are you really ready to do that? Do you know how? Do you have really good results with it? Can you rid disease and chemical imbalance with your mind right now?

I'm going to give you a truth, whether you choose to see it or not. You're not ready for that! You are not yet prepared to take on the task of full healing using your spiritual tools. Lemurians could do that, because Pleiadians taught them how! It's one of the promises of God, that there'll come a day when your DNA works that efficiently and you will be able to walk away from drug chemistry and the medical industry forever, for you'll have the creator's energy working at 100 percent, something you saw within the great masters who walked the earth.

This will be possible within the ascended earth that you are looking forward to, dear one. Have you seen the news lately? Look out the window. Is that where you are now? We are telling you that the energy is going in that direction, but you are not there yet.

Let those who feel that they can heal themselves begin the process of learning how. Many will be appreciative of the fact that you have some of the gifts for this now. Let the process begin, but don't think for a moment that you have arrived at a place where every health issue can be healed with your own power. You are students of a grand process that eventually will be yours if you wish to begin the quantum process of talking to your cells. Some will be good at this, and some will just be planting the seeds of it.

Now, I would like to tell you how Spirit works and the potentials of what's going to happen in the next few years. We're going to give the doctors of the planet new inventions and new science. These will be major discoveries about the Human body and of the quantum attributes therein.

Look at what has already happened, for some of this science has already been given to you and you are actually using it. Imagine a science that would allow the heart to be transplanted because the one you have is failing. Of course! It's an operation done many times a month on this planet. That information came from the creator, did you realize that? It didn't drop off the shelf of some dark energy library to be used in evil ways.

So, if you need a new heart, Lightworker, should you go to the doctor or create one with your mind? Until you feel comfortable that you can replace your heart with a new one by yourself, then you might consider using the God-given information that is in the hands of the surgeon. For it will save your life, and create a situation where you stay and continue to send your light to the earth! Do you see what we're saying?

You can also alter that which is medicine [drugs] and begin a process that is spectacular in its design, but not very 3D. I challenge you to begin to use what I would call the homeopathic principle with major drugs. If some of you are taking major drugs in order to alter your chemistry so that you can live better and longer, you might feel you have no choice. "Well, this is keeping me alive," you might say. "I don't yet have the ability to do this with my consciousness, so I take the drugs."

In this new energy, there is something else that you can try if you are in this category. Do the following with safety, intelligence, common sense and logic. Here is the challenge: The principle of homeopathy is that an almost invisible tincture of a substance is ingested and is seen by your innate. Innate "sees" what you are trying to do and then adjusts the body's chemistry in response. Therefore, you might say that you are sending the body a "signal for balance." The actual tincture is not large enough to affect anything chemically - yet it works!

The body [innate] sees what you're trying to do and then cooperates. In a sense, you might say the body is healing itself because you were able to give it instructions through the homeopathic substance of what to do. So, why not do it with a major drug? Start reducing the dosage and start talking to your cells, and see what happens. If you're not successful, then stop the reduction. However, to your own amazement, you may often be successful over time.

You might be able to take the dosage that you're used to and cut it to at least a quarter of what it was. It is the homeopathy principle and it allows you to keep the purpose of the drug, but reduce it to a fraction of a common 3D dosage. You're still taking it internally, but now it's also signaling in addition to working chemically. The signal is sent, the body cooperates, and you reduce the chance of side effects.

You can't put things in boxes of yes or no when it comes to the grand system of Spirit. You can instead use spiritual logic and see the things that God has given you on the planet within the inventions and processes. Have an operation, save your life, and stand and say, "Thank you, God, for this and for my being born where these things are possible." It's a complicated subject, is it not? Each of you is so different! You'll know what to do, dear one. Never stress over that decision, because your innate will tell you what is appropriate for you if you're willing to listen. ….”

"Becoming Multidimensional" – (Kryon Channelling by Lee Carroll)

Kryon.com, November 11, 2017

This live channelling was given in Montreal, QC, Canada

Lee Carroll
To help the reader, this channelling has been revisited [by Lee and Kryon] to provide even clearer understanding. Sometime information is even added or condensed. Often what happens live has implied energy within it, which carries a kind of communication that the printed page does not. So enjoy this enhanced message given in Montreal.

Greetings, dear ones, I am Kryon of Magnetic Service. I sit in front of an esoteric audience right now and the subject has been multidimensionality for the entire day. You're discovering things right now that are unbelievable to many. At the very basic level, and at the core of humanity's perception, there is change coming. It's beautiful change that is sometimes difficult to achieve and imagine, but if you look at it closely, it truly is a change that brings you out of the dark.

I want to review some things in this message that I have given in the past, then I want to introduce some new things to you that I've never said before. This is the time for it. Why should this be the time? Because, dear ones, you came here and are reading this. We are here as multidimensional energies and entities to teach you as much as you can understand about this shift.

First, let's take a look at what has happened on the stage today since this meeting began [The Ariane Publishing Convention]. The channelling today has come from different Human sources, yet there was only one real message given. If you take a look at the various ways that it was delivered, you'd see that the Human is involved, but the core information is the same. What are the words that would describe in any language the core of what was said today? Hope, benevolence, love, compassion, togetherness, harmony and awakening. This is the message from the creative source today on this planet, as represented by multiple channellings.

How do you know if a channeller is real? It's easy. Look for these subjects in the message: Hope, awakening, love, compassion and help when experiencing the difficulty of moving into the light. No channeller who is real and accurate will give you a doom and gloom message today. It is impossible, because the God-source knows what has taken place here on the planet and that's the "message of the shift".

Little by little, group by group, old souls and Lightworkers are receiving information that is starting to ring true. You're going to eventually identify with this energy if you understand what is really happening. You may look at your media and see what they say is happening around you with the world condition – and it may seem far different from what we are telling you. Dark consciousness on this planet wants you to be frightened and return to the lower consciousness of the past. Media is involved in pleasing the commercial core.

Look for it. It's everywhere. The dramatic gyrations of a few are causing the kind of trouble that reminds you of what took place more than 50 years ago – a return to fear. This is the darkness of consciousness trying to bring this planet back to a place that will never exist again. There is too much light starting to be revealed. It's happening everywhere, even right now in this room. Old souls are seeing it and coming to a meeting like this. Human Beings are awakening to a bigger truth, and it's not just within channelling. The bigger truth is a vision of a world at peace for their children and their children's children, a way through the darkness, a compatibility with other civilizations on the planet. It's a vision about future cultures that will say, “Our beliefs are different about the Creator, but we honor your beliefs as well. We honor what you do in your system because it is connected to the one source.”

It's about time for the oneness to spread through the planet. Oneness is another way of saying "awareness of the whole of things, a confluence of connection between everything". I want to list some things for you to give you some examples and information about this awareness. How is oneness happening? What are some of the attributes to look forward to? What are the new things you didn't expect? Everything I'll give you is benevolent, beautiful and truthful news.

The Creation Story

There is a discovery taking place. Awhile back, perhaps as long as 200,000 years, a spiritual creation story slowly began to place itself on this planet. Dear ones, the creation story that you read about in your culture's scripture is interestingly similar to the one that we now discuss. However, the one we discuss is also the one claimed by a majority of the indigenous all over the planet.

The indigenous on Earth say, "We came from the stars." They will tell you the same thing your scriptures say. The Human Being today is not a product of evolution of the planet earth, but was altered. The creation story miracle of this alteration gave you spiritual awareness of dark and light. We also tell you that your very DNA was altered at this time.

The creation story in scripture is filled with metaphors. The Garden of Eden is a metaphor for Gaia and the beauty of Humans on Gaia. The garden is all of nature, not a specific place. The Humans that are involved in the story, the man and the woman, represent ALL men and women at that time. The creation transformation started slowly and we have told you there was a creative spark – a point at which this took place. It had to start with a few and multiply over time. "Coming from the stars" is a truth that the indigenous believe almost universally, and for many, is the metaphor for the Pleiadians (the Seven Sisters constellation).

Now, dear ones, you won't read that in scripture. Instead, the story is that an angel came down from the heavens. The result of that visit is that you were given sacredness and awareness. Suddenly, Humans who were simply biological, evolutionary beings became those with spiritual free choice. You were given the knowledge of good and evil, dark and light, and the ability to sense the creative source (God) and decide between these energies. That's the story in scripture and that's the story that we give you of the Pleiadians.

The Pleiadians are a very highly evolved spiritual race, which has had a multidimensional consciousness for tens of thousands of years. Their purpose 200,000 years ago was to seed this planet with the knowledge of the Creator. Even today, some scientists are starting to question why it is that the modern Human Being, who is approximately 200,000 years old, has 23 pairs of chromosomes instead of the 24 that all the evolution below it has. The timing that science is discovering is the very timing we've told you about here. Something happened that changed your DNA.

You're very new on this planet! Having 23 pairs of chromosomes, dear ones, means that you didn't come from anything here! Do you realize that? Science is starting to also realize that. They won't give you the creation story as I have, but they will say, "Something took place that created a Human Being outside of the normal, accepted evolutionary process." So this Kryon story may be more mainstream than you would imagine.

The 24th Pair

Now, I'll tell you something I've told you one time before. Indeed, it appears that you have 23 chromosome pairs. But you are only studying them to the extent that you can in 3D. You study them in a linear fashion with the 3D chemistry instruments you have because it's all you have right now. So where did the 24th pair go? What if I told you that it's still there?

Aha! It's definitely still there. Dear ones, the 24th pair IS the quantum pair. You still have 24 pairs, but 3D biology only sees 23. So, what is the 24th pair all about? If you lose the perspective of this, it's not going to make any sense. What is the numerology from the ancient Tibetans on the number 24? It's a six (6) and if you look at the meaning of the six in that system, it's "man at its highest level - harmony and balance". Did you know that? What a coincidence that the 24th pair, which is multidimensional, is coming awake after 200,000 years! You have passed the marker (2012) and with that comes a change in your DNA. It starts to vibrate differently, not as a frequency, because a frequency is a three-dimensional description. It vibrates differently within a quantum energy (affecting the spin of atomic structure within a quantum field). It's extremely different, extremely high, and it starts to change Human nature. That's what's happening.

The first step to understanding this process is going to be for you, old soul, to cognize it. This is an interesting word in my partner's language. Cognize doesn't simply mean believe in. It means a Human mind must accept it internally so it becomes an "owned" reality. All of you have cognized a physical attribute called gravity. You don't believe in gravity. Instead, you have cognized it and work with it every single day. There's no question that if you drop something, it's going downward. You cognized it to the degree that it's real to you at the core level. You own the concept.

There are many in this room and reading this who have cognized the love of God to the degree that there is no question that God is real and this beautiful source knows you're name. Those who understand that know that when they leave this place, they will never be alone. There are a multitude of entities with all of you who know you and who love you. This is the solace and reality for many old souls. However, you know that there are those who don't believe it at all. This is free choice, the core of the creation story energy.

Can you imagine a fully quantum Human Being with changed DNA, ready to make major shifts, but who doesn't believe in any of it? They go home from this place alone and they feel alone, yet there are multitudes of loving entities around them, just waiting to take their hand – if they could cognize God in themselves.

Can you imagine them sitting alone all their lives, dying alone - never having taken the hand of any one of those guides who love them eternally, who know their soul-name, and who were ready for healing and life change? That's free will. Perhaps it's because they were never told about something you are learning today?

Every Human on this stage feels this love when they are in channel. Channelling is different for each individual. There is no right or wrong way to channel. There are two channellers on the stage at the moment. Can you identify them? One channels the love of God through his fingers right now [Robert Coxon - composer/musician]. He knows what he is doing is multidimensional because he hears the music before he plays it! He hears the information of the man in the chair channelling before it's channelled! That's the variety of multiple channelling. That's multidimensionality. Every channeller on the stage has felt this and knows this. I tell this to you even before I begin to tell you what your evolution is bringing you next.

My partner talked earlier about an evolving Human Being and gave you some things to consider. What does evolution really mean? Our last channeled book is filled with examples of DNA changing, attitudes changing and what becoming multidimensional might mean within a changing Human consciousness. Let's list some attributes yet again, so you will really understand the practicality of an earth with individuals who are starting to have an awakening they did not expect.

Past Life Remembrance

The first one, the easiest one, is past life awareness. Children are being born today who will wake up earlier to these concepts. When they learn to talk, they may say things to their mothers like, “You're the best mother so far!” Others in disagreement and disappointment will say, “I liked my last one better.” Mothers will look at them in shock, “What are you talking about?” However, an old soul mother will know exactly what is taking place. The child is remembering and may not know the exact names or the faces, but internally the child knows that they are not here for the first time.

So the first thing that we say you may see is an intrinsic knowledge of the fact you have lived before. It starts with the children and unless they are talked out of it, they will have it all their lives. They know that life is a circle. No matter what spiritual systems will tell them, they know better. Some will keep quiet so they don't offend those around them, but inside they'll know it.

You older souls didn't have that. You had an awareness that grew and then you cognized it. However, with the children, it's part of who they are when they come in. It's already cognized. Remembering the fact that you have lived before is starting to happen to old souls. You're starting to remember energies that you never remembered before. These are not necessarily dramatic, poor or dark energies. You're starting to awaken to remembrances of good things, joyful things.

Sometimes you will awaken and say, "Wow! That hasn't happened very often. I was flying and saw beautiful colors. I heard my name being called and somehow there was light all around me. I want that dream every single night!" Welcome to a quantum experience of remembering not just a past life, but also a multiple of past experiences wrapped together in a way that is non-linear. That's what is beginning to happen. That's number one.

Awakening to Past Wisdom

Number two is awakening to wisdom from the past. Now listen: You cannot have Human Beings who start over every single time they're born. That will never give you an ancient wisdom factor on the planet. Instead, you must have remembered wisdom from the past. It will be a wisdom that will put you in place to know what works and what doesn't work - a self-evident and very natural wisdom in a culture that will understand that war will never work, a self-evident wisdom that knows the way out of difficulties, and a wisdom that will not allow you to make the same mistakes again and again.

This will be wisdom from the past brought forward to the old soul child who grows into an adult and, slowly over a generation, the new attitude starts to be seen within your culture. It appears in the laws that you pass, in how your own legislators are selected, and what you start to hear: No more war. How many generations of humanity will it take before there is no more war? That is up to you. It may be shorter than you think because of what I am telling you now.

What if you don't have to be reborn again and again, but instead you simply awaken to the wisdom of the past? It would be wisdom you did not develop in this lifetime, but rather a wisdom that has come from many lifetimes over and over. My partner says to you, dear ones, when you return you will come into this world far more multidimensional than now. You will have chromosome pair 24 vibrating at a higher level, so you won't make the same mistakes. It's like when you burned your hand on the stove a child. You will carry that in with you in your next life instead of repeating it. You'll remember the stove, and that is a metaphor for remembering war. You won't do it again. I will say it over and over: There will come a time where you will look at civilization before 2012 as the barbaric years. Higher consciousness will be the way of everyday things on Earth.

Timelessness

So let's talk about some new multidimensional attributes. This may not make sense, because now we are going to depart from linearity. You're going to remember future lives. Immediately, you agree, "Kryon, that doesn't make sense." Indeed, it doesn't make sense in a linear fashion, no. Every single soul in this room and listening to this channel has been part of a bigger soul-group. There have been times on the other side of the veil when you have planned with the others where you'll go next, what the plan would be that would help humanity the most, or what you needed to experience and learn. It's a plan also about where you would be in this new energy and what you might do. Those plans for the future will constantly change because of what you do in the present. So none of it is a contract or a set, unmovable plan. However, what if I told you that you would be able to remember the planning? That is becoming multidimensional. Therefore, some of you will have a very good idea what is next and who you might be and where.

In the case of the man in the chair, he's going to a "new Africa", but he is not going to alone. A karmic group around him will be with him. Are you listening Marc? [referring to Marc Vallée, the host of the conference] This karmic group is not the ones necessarily living with you. It may be those who you befriended as souls who have taken the journey with you in many lifetimes so far. It's beautiful to think that you all may be part of a grand, future promise. Imagine knowing where you're going to be next time and cognizing it! Many have called Earth "an experiment". It isn't. It's a grand plan, modified by free choice.

Multidimensional Biology

Oh, there's another great one! When chromosome pair 24 becomes more active, you're going to start having quantum biology. Multidimensional biology becomes a kind of super-innate. What that means is that everything you took for granted in the way your body works is wrong, because a quantum biology is one that is so smart that disease can never invade it. It's smarter than the old energy diseases of the planet.

Listen: There are some diseases your science has wiped out from the planet completely, by giving the body a tincture or sample of what to look for so it won't let it in. Your biological defense is now greater than the disease and it's gone from your world. This new information is very similar. So you actually have precedent of what I'm talking about and can visualize it.

Now, what do you think that might do to the expectation of how long Humans are supposed to live? Think: No more cancer or any other disease, no more Alzheimer's, name any disease that is so prevalent now - it can't get in. It can't get in because it's dysfunctional and stupid to a light-body where chromosome 24 is super active. Your immune defense is a super-defense. That's the multidimensionality of biology. It awakens to how it was designed and knows exactly when disease is trying to get in. It is smarter than anything you have yet seen.

Nothing is Singular

Oh, I have another one before we close. If you truly understand multidimensionality, you'll also realize there is no singularity in physics or life. Nothing is alone. There is no single soul within you. There is no one life to remember. Remember, everything has oneness (a confluence of connection) with everything else. Watch for this to show itself. Human Beings are starting to remember and meld with multiple Akashes. "What does that mean, Kryon?"

Listen: A great politician might start to participate with the best politicians of the ages. He will sense a multi-Akashic record – not just his own, but the greatest leaders in history. His leadership may then give great change and ideas to a very stale government. A great musician will start to participate in all of the old masters at once! That musician is not just sensing the old masters, he/she becomes the old masters. You might say there will be super-humans, super-artists, super-politicians and super-artists. Some are already here!

Your question is, “How can they do this? It doesn't work that way." Welcome to multidimensionality. This is the way it was designed to work. You are currently in a singular, linear box. Forget the linear idea of one soul. Souls on the other side of the veil are a "soup" that we have told you about before. You can access yours, plus theirs, and it's totally normal for a multidimensional consciousness. That's chromosome pair number 24 starting to vibrate and hook you to all that is. Watch for it.

Apply this possibility to many "super-spiritual" leaders. They would have the wisdom of the masters who walked the earth, yet have the sense not to allow themselves to be worshipped and would teach "from a distance". Do you think that would fast track this civilization of humanity into something magnificent? The answer is YES! Some day there will be no such thing as a self-worth issue in old souls. All of you will know where you came from. You will be super-human and multidimensional. You will have tools that never existed before and inventions will push you forward in multidimensional awareness. Is this too grand or unbelievable? It is totally unbelievable if you think that what you call Human nature will remain the same. As it starts to modify, this will be what you call "a game-changer". [Kryon smile]

The battle rages, dear ones. The battle is between dark and light and will be with you for a while on this planet. It doesn't stop you from knowing about the coming evolution we're discussing, but there will come a time where the main battle will be over. Make no mistake: Humans will always have free choice and there will be dark spots around the earth and disagreements from those who choose lower energy. But it will no longer be entire countries or dictators or entire cultures as it is today. Instead, it will be isolated and represent fractionalization of smaller groups. That's free choice and will always be with you.

Imagine that Human nature itself starts to change and actually expects benevolent things to always be the answer. Imagine cultures that are wise enough to work out issues with each other based on community and compassion, creating win-win scenarios. Imagine a culture that is no longer attracted to drama and death, but where all the best-selling movies and books reflect a new maturity of storytelling where the heroes are always those who think in ways that create solution. That would be the game-changer.

There will come a day when Human nature is a consensus that will have "coherence of the heart" as its core and not drama or force or power. A new kind of Human will emerge, dear ones, and you'll be there to see it all and to participate. Now, that is the best news you can ever hear.

And so it is.

Dutch hospital sets up fetal tissue bank for birth defect research

DutchNews, January 26, 2018

Amsterdam University’s AMC teaching hospital is to actively approach women who have undergone an abortion or parents who have suffered a still birth to ask if they will donate the foetus to a special tissue bank. 

Researchers will then use the tissue from the foetus to find out more about birth defects and normal fetal growth. 

‘Very occasionally people whose child was born dead or had an abortion have asked us if they could help medical science,’ coordinator Bernadette de Bakker said in a press release. ‘But that generated too little tissue for real research.’ 

Parents will be asked as soon as possible if they are willing to donate the foetus because speed is of the essence to ensure the results of the research are trustworthy, De Bakker said. Donations will be stored anonymously. 

Some of the foetuses will have genetic defects – the reason for most later stage abortions – or will have been subject of a miscarriage. 

Downs

‘For example, we don’t know why one child with Downs has limited abilities but why others can go to a normal primary school,’ said the project’s initiator and genetics professor Raoul Hennekam. ‘Or why some develop heart defects and others don’t.’ 

The foetuses donated by parents who had an abortion for what the AMC terms ‘social’ reasons will be studied to learn more about normal development. 

Abortion is legal in the Netherlands up to 24 weeks but almost half of all abortions take place before seven weeks.

A Dutch Argentine consortium has won the contract to build a new high flux reactor for the Petten nuclear facility in Noord-Holland, beating off opposition from France and South Korea. 

Rotterdam based firm TBI will build the reactor and Argentine state-owned firm Invap will take charge of the design, licencing and safety, Invap said in a press release

The current reactor, which is almost 60 years old and owned by the European Commission, produces medical isotopes used for diagnoses and treatment all over the world. It is responsible for 30% of the worldwide production of medical isotopes.

Canada pharma tycoon and wife were murdered, private detectives say: report

Yahoo – AFP, January 20, 2018

Private detectives have concluded that pharma billionaire Barry Sherman, pictured
 in a screen grab taken from a video released by his company, and his wife were
murdered, according to the Toronto Star (AFP Photo/HO)

Montreal (AFP) - Private investigators hired by the children of late Canadian pharmaceutical tycoon Barry Sherman concluded that he and his wife were murdered, the Toronto Star reported Saturday.

The 75-year-old chairman of Apotex and his 70-year-old wife Honey were found dead in their Toronto home on December 15. Apotex is the largest maker of generic drugs in Canada, and the Shermans' fortune was estimated at more than $3 billion.

Toronto's homicide unit, which took over the investigation into the "suspicious" deaths, earlier said that they had been strangled to death, but stopped short of calling them homicides.

The Shermans' bodies were found hanging from a railing around a basement pool, the theory being that the Apotex chairman killed his wife Honey, hung her body and then hanged himself by the pool's edge, Canadian media reported in December, citing a police source.

Sherman's four children however said that a murder-suicide made no sense, and hired criminal lawyer Brian Greenspan to help, the Star reported.

Greenspan in turn hired private detectives and asked for a second autopsy, which was carried out by a forensic pathologist on December 20, just before the funeral.

"Contract killing"

The pathologist and the detectives, which included former Toronto homicide investigators, found markings on the victims' wrists indicating that their hands had been tied with cord or a plastic zip tie.

When the bodies were found the wrists were untied, and no rope or cords were found, the newspaper said. Furthermore, toxicology tests on the bodies showed no abnormal sign of drug use.

The team concluded that the couple was strangled to death with men's leather belts found around their necks attached to a bar at the edge of the pool.

Sources close to the family probe used words like "professional," "contract killing," and "staged homicide" to describe the couple's death, the Star said.

The private detectives have not been granted access to the house, according to the Star, which quoted sources as saying that there was no damage or other evidence inside pointing to a home invasion.

And though both the police and private detectives canvassed nearby home for surveillance video, "nothing has come from a study" of the footage, the Star said.

Sherman founded Apotex in 1974, and over the following decades became known as a ruthless businessman who shunned the limelight while revolutionizing the drug industry in Canada.

Today, the company employs over 11,000 people and sells 300 generic drugs in 120 countries.

Lactalis feels heat as families rebuff CEO's pledges on salmonella

Paris (AFP) - Pressure rose on French dairy giant Lactalis on Monday as the parents of babies who became sick after drinking salmonella-laced milk demanded answers over a scare affecting dozens of countries.

Lactalis CEO Emmanuel Besnier said at the weekend that more than 12 million packages of Picot, Milumel, Celia and other brands of powdered baby milk had been recalled in 83 countries and offered to compensate all the affected families.

An association of victim's families, which met with the government on Monday, has rejected the offer, accusing Lactalis of trying to buy their silence.

The association's president Quentin Guillemain said Monday the explanations given by Besnier in an interview Sunday -- his first since the outbreak in December -- fell far short of expectations.

"We still don't know where they are, we don't know if they have been destroyed or if they've been drunk," he said.

He said it also remained unclear when the salmonella outbreak at Lactalis's Craon plant in western France first occurred, suggesting it could have been before 2017, the period initially covered by the recall announced in December.

"It's a question we asked once again, and as of now we have not had any response," said Guillemain, who has demanded an apology from Lactalis.

His group has disputed health authorities' tally of 37 children sickened by the salmonella outbreak in France, saying that without systematic testing of babies brought to doctors, the true figure remains unknown.

Hundreds of families have filed lawsuits against the company.

Anger has been growing since it emerged that Lactalis's own tests had discovered salmonella at the Craon site in August and November, but did not report the findings because it had no legal obligation to do so.

Besnier denied claims that Lactalis had lied about the dates and number of stocks affected by the salmonella outbreak.

"At no point was there any intention of hiding things," he said.

Government spokesman Benjamin Griveaux said Sunday the company's explanations were insufficient.

"When you have a case of milk on the market which has clearly caused complicated health problems for children, it means at some point there was negligence," Griveaux said.

Biggest Dutch pension fund drops tobacco, nuclear weapon investments

DutchNews, January 11, 2018

The smoking zone at the VU teaching hospital 

Dutch civil service pension fund ABP, one of the biggest pension funds in world, is to phase out all investments in tobacco and nuclear weapons. 

The pension fund intends to sell all its investments in the tobacco and nuclear weapons industries – totalling some €3.3bn – within the next year, it said in a statement on Thursday. ABP has 2.9 million participants and some €405bn in available assets. 

‘Investments in tobacco and nuclear weapons have been a dilemma for us for quite some time,’ said investment policy committee chairman Erik van Houwelingen. ‘Changes in society, also at an international level, were a reason for ABP to put the topic on the agenda again.’ 

Floris Italianer, director of the Dutch Heart Foundation and chair of the Dutch Alliance for a Smoke-free Environment, welcomed the pension fund’s decision. 

‘ABP is taking a big step towards discouraging tobacco use and realising a smoke-free generation,’ he said.  ‘We also call on other leaders in society, like executives of other financial institutions, service providers and supermarkets, to follow this example.’

Earlier this month, high street health and beauty chain Kruidvat said it was phasing out the sale of tobacco products from its stores.

Pharma giant Pfizer pulls out of research into Alzheimer's

BBC, 10 January 2018

Pfizer's decision will affect research into drugs for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's
disease

Drug company Pfizer has announced it is pulling out of research into drugs to treat Alzheimer's disease.

The US-based pharmaceutical giant said it would be ending its neuroscience discovery programmes following a review, and 300 jobs would be lost.

The Alzheimer's Society called the news "disappointing" and a "heavy blow" to those living with dementia.

Companies should be encouraged to invest in research into neuroscience, Alzheimer's Research UK said.

The move means Pfizer will also stop looking for treatments for Parkinson's disease, but the company said it planned to create a new fund dedicated to neuroscience research in the future.

A statement from the company said: "We have made the decision to end our neuroscience discovery and early development efforts and re-allocate funding to those areas where we have strong scientific leadership and that will allow us to provide the greatest impact for patients."

Complex brain

Prof Tara Spire-Jones, a neuroscientist at Edinburgh University, told the Today programme on BBC Radio 4 that despite the decision, there was still a lot of hope.

"Not all pharmaceutical companies are pulling out and there are over 100 clinical trials at the moment.

"There is a lot going on in the basic science - we need to understand the complexity of the brain."

She said Pfizer's decision was understandable because of the failure rate of clinical trials.

"More than 99% of trials for Alzheimer's drugs have failed in past 15 years.

"So companies are justifiably cautious, but we are making great advances on the scientific front."

Prof Spire-Jones added: "We've learned from these failures of trials that we need to take a step back and understand brain changes.

"At the moment we don't fully understand how memory and thinking work fully in a healthy brain."

Pharmaceutical companies including Novartis, Janssen, Biogen, Abbvie and Eli Lilly are still developing medicines to treat Alzheimer's disease and a spokesman for the ABPI (Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry) said they continued "to make progress in unravelling the complexities of the brain and identifying the underpinnings of the disease".



Dr James Pickett, head of research at Alzheimer's Society, said: "Of course it's disappointing to hear that Pfizer, one of the world's leading pharmaceutical companies, will be terminating their research efforts in neuroscience, including Alzheimer's disease drug discovery.

"The brain is the most complex organ in the body and developing drugs to treat brain diseases is a tremendous challenge, but with no new drug for dementia in the last 15 years, this will come as a heavy blow to the estimated 46.8 million people currently living with the condition across the globe."

Long-term commitment

The Alzheimer's Society said it had committed £50m to fund new research at the UK Dementia Research Institute alongside Alzheimer's Research UK and the Medical Research Council.

Dr Matthew Norton, director of policy at Alzheimer's Research UK, said: "We hope that pharmaceutical companies will look at the long-term potential when deciding whether to participate in this effort.

"It is vital that all of us - charities, government and industry alike - make long-term commitments to dementia research if we are to bring an end to the fear, harm and heartbreak of dementia."

Currently, about 850,000 people in the UK have a form of dementia.

One million people are predicted to be living with the condition by 2021, and this could rise to two million by 2051.

“..  The Biggest Filter that Hinders Truth is Your Biased Knowledge

The biggest filter of humanity, the one that keeps Humans from actual truth, believe it or not, is called knowledge. We speak of that which humanity perceives currently as knowledge. That which you do not know is, therefore, future knowledge. Now, every single scientist understands the difference - every single one - for they know what is coming is going to teach them what they don't know yet. This is part of the scientific process. Even so, they take what they know, or think they know, and completely let it temper the experiments for what they don't know. They base the future on what they know or believe, even though they know better!

A medical doctor will look in the past and he'll remember being taught about a time when humans would report to the barbershop for healing. That's when they would actually bleed people for healing. By the way, that's the reason for the barber pole having the red stripe on it - it's the tradition of barbers doing the bleeding. So back then, you went to get healed in the barbershop by being bled! This, of course, led to many deaths because there was no understanding of germs, sterilization or today's common sense. Doctors know this, and they laugh at how far you all have come from this. So doctors absolutely know that what is coming will someday be actually laughable, yet they are also absolutely and completely closed to what it might be. They just think it will be an advancement of what they currently know.  ….”

“..  Medicine - Where It's Going

I want to show you some other areas to consider. There are several categories that we'd like to talk about, but they're not in a specific order except for the last one. So let's talk about medicine. What is future medicine going to look like?

The most elegant predictions of medicine fall short of what's really coming. What you have today is a high-tech approach to designer chemistry. Now, since the body is made up of chemistry, it makes sense to look at this chemistry and work with it. It makes total sense to discover how it reacts to disease and then design cures with more chemistry. It's absolutely normal what you have done, but it's going to reach an end very soon. Because the future of medicine is physics, dear ones, not chemistry.

You're going to start understanding and developing new medical physics. You will discover that medi-physics is going to literally speak to cellular structure and give it instructions, without one chemical involved. There's always a reaction to chemistry, isn't there? There's always a side effect. When you push one thing, something else reacts, doesn't it? How do you like it so far? Your most elegant chemical designs, the ones that are helping with the worst diseases on the planet, all have side effects - and some of those side effects are death! I say to you, how do you like it so far?

Does it really seem elegant to you? Or perhaps it's just a more sophisticated way of bleeding in the barbershop? Dear ones, that's how you're going to look at it someday! You're going to slap your heads and say, "Remember the day when we did everything with chemistry and drugs?"

Right now, these kinds of changes have already started in several areas. There are discoveries being made that are healing some of the most heart-breaking diseases you have. I reveal one, because it's not a secret. I will always give you information that is either being worked on or has been postulated through free choice on this planet. That is the guideline of channelling. We can't give it to you. You've got to develop it yourself. However, we can put you in an energy that has a faster discovery potential - that is to say, discoveries become more obvious.

Alzheimer's is heart breaking. There are millions on this planet who develop this condition, more all the time. You're living longer and a plaque-like material that literally obfuscates your memory within the brain is becoming more common. It clings to certain parts of your brain, encrusting and restricting it, imprisoning the Human's ability to remember and eventually process information at all. The result is death, slow death. It's caused by your environment, a fact which will be discovered eventually. Your long-lived Ancients didn't have it.

It's going to be cured with physics. Your science is starting to find out that the plaque-like substance has a resonance that allows it to be weakened with sound. High-frequency sound, tuned to a certain frequency and amplitude, will cause the sheaths to weaken, dissolve, and come off. There's a lot of research to do yet, but it's a Eureka! moment - realizing that physics alone, without chemistry, can change the structure of biology. This is with no side effects whatsoever. It's coming, it's coming.

There are those working with fresh umbilical cord stem cells right now who are using pure physics to guide the stem cells to a specific destination in the body in order to repair failing systems. Dear ones, the future of health and healing is not through better chemistry, yet medicine is still waiting for better pills! Did you connect the dots and realize that all biology is physics based? There is magnetics, leverage, the energy of consciousness, electricity and much more within cellular structure. With physics alone, you can "tune in" to disease and destroy it! You can fine-tune your system with cooperative resonances and extend life with benevolent, physical assistance. Sixteen years ago, I told you this when I spoke of the Temple of Rejuvenation. I described the super-cooling needed to do it and the temperatures needed to work with it (-55C). This is physics!

Now, the false expectation of greater chemistry for the future is totally caused from the filter of knowledge. What you have and know then gives you your expectation of what is going to take place. It literally blocks you from seeing some of the potentials that you may have.  ….”



Question (2004): Dearest Kryon: I've read the question and answer on people with diseases of the mind - for example, Alzheimers and dementia. But I have more questions. You say that people have chosen this path and that the lessons are for us. As I work with these people, I'm wondering if there is any stage where there could be a reversal of the condition, and if so, with what methods? The people in the hostel are so drugged up, and there's a mind-set with the authorities that no "alternate" therapies work - although they're using colored lights. (Sadly, the diversional therapist told me she doesn't know what color therapy is.)

From a spiritual point of view, what is the best way to work with these people - talk to them as though they were normal, or go along with their imaginings? I've been told that they need to be kept quiet, especially toward evening. However, I've found that with one woman who mostly paces saying very little, the more childlike I am (dancing and singing makes her happy), the more she talks. I could go on and on - could you please enlighten me further?

Answer: I will answer the second part first. Love those who are in this condition. Find out what makes them smile... and then make them smile. The best you can do in a facilitation of this condition is to somehow create joy. Even in their confusion they can laugh at situations and be creative. They'll also remember you better as the one who creates this emotion. Each is very different, but in general, try to find their "happy" button and push it as often as you can. They will remember that.

Right now you're perched upon some important discoveries that will be able to reverse these conditions to a large degree. But just as the paraplegic who regains their nerve connections must than relearn how to walk, suffering much pain, there will be this attribute with a regeneration of the mind. Even if new cells are created, they won't necessarily have the old memories, but they can be trained to be healthy and be ready for new memories.

So someday these will have the ability to halt the progress of the degeneration of cells that are being taken, and instead grow new pathways around them. Some will be able to "reconnect" to certain kinds of memories (like recognition) but will have to relearn what the association of recognition actually means. So history and events might have to be studied and relearned... sometimes even things like reading, also. The pain will be that the individual will regain mental health and will realize exactly what has happened.

Your stem-cell research is very important, and you're reaching a point where you'll be able to use birth cells that aren't embryonic, but every bit as potent for research... thereby sidestepping all moral issues. Look for this in the next few years.

Human muscle tissue grown from stem cells: US study

Yahoo – AFP, January 9, 2018

Stem cells were coaxed into becoming skeletal muscle cells, which grew into
 "functioning human skeletal muscle," the Duke University team reported in the
science journal Nature Communications (AFP Photo/Gabriel BOUYS)

Paris (AFP) - Working human muscle has been grown from stem cells in the lab in a breakthrough that holds promise for sufferers of degenerative muscular diseases, scientists said on Tuesday.

The team from Duke University in North Carolina said they were the first to achieve this feat using adult skin or blood cells which were "reprogrammed" into a juvenile, versatile state.

These are called "induced pluripotent stem cells" or iPSCs. Like naturally-occurring stem cells found in embryos, they can become any other type of human cell.

In this case, the iPSCs were coaxed into becoming skeletal muscle cells, which grew into "functioning human skeletal muscle," the team reported in the science journal Nature Communications.

"It's taken years of trial and error, making educated guesses and taking baby steps to finally produce functioning human muscle from pluripotent stem cells," study co-author Lingjun Rao said.

The breakthrough was made possible by "unique cell culture conditions" in the lab, and a special 3-D scaffold which allowed the cells to grow "much faster and longer" than other teams had managed, he said in a statement issued by the university.

The tissue contracted and reacted to external stimuli such as electrical pulses or chemical signals, the team said.

They also implanted the muscle fibres into adult mice, where it survived and functioned for at least three weeks, though it was "not as strong" as natural tissue.

The team hopes their technique will allow scientists to grow "an endless amount" of functioning muscle in the lab on which to test drugs and gene treatments for degenerative muscle diseases.

"The prospect of studying rare diseases is especially exciting for us," said researcher Nenad Bursac.

"When a child's muscles are already withering away from something like Duchenne muscular dystrophy, it would not be ethical to take muscle samples from them and do further damage."

The achievement represents an advance on previous work by the same team, which earlier reported the first functioning human muscle tissue grown from cells obtained in muscle biopsies.

"... Is He Alone? How About You?

What kind of addiction does the old energy have for you? Are you continuing to do things that you think are absolutely correct, working with perceptions that have been given to you in an old energy that you are still wallowing in? Of course, reading this you will say, "Not me." Remember the Korean leader. He still thinks he is right and never saw it. How invested in struggle are you? I have some news. You can't do it for long. First, you lose friends. You can't claim to be one thing and be another anymore.

So let's start extending this teaching. If the darkness is so attractive, is it affecting anything else? The answer? It is absolutely affecting everything else. There's an entire industry we have told you about that will eventually fail because it has been developed in an older energy, worked in an older energy, and has no integrity. The industry is Big Pharma. We've told you that its fall is imminent and the attributes will come from the ones within it, who will expose it. When this actually happens is up to you, since this is free choice of the developing consciousness of your country. However, let's look for a moment, not at the event, but what it may then lead to.

Big Pharma is invested in an old idea that designer chemistry is the answer to healing. This idea has been prevalent for decades and many feel that it is the highest technology available. However, instead, and in the light, there starts to appear another idea entirely: The Human body has an unrealized awareness and it is actually the master healer! The Human body is designed to self-correct. So, therefore, don't put foreign chemistry into it, but instead find out how to give it elegant, specific instruction sets to heal itself. Make them high-technology instruction sets to inform it to heal itself!

This is homeopathy expanded, you might say. There are processes coming that understand that this Human body of yours is so much better than any chemist has ever realized, and the new energy is starting to expose this fact. The answer to healing is not chemistry. The answer to health and healing is by addressing the "smart part" of the Human body, giving it instructions to utilize former unknown systems that are ready to create spontaneous remission and beyond.

Remember my channelling given on the "youthing template" or the fact that you all have dormant "genesis cells" within your body (cells that have the full body blueprint and a source for very young stem cells)? These both were expositions of systems that are smart and ready to create new cells and healing in ways that will seem miraculous! But they need to be "instructed". 

Funding Will Trail for Awhile

How much money do you think is invested in the old ways? Right now, there is an industry of investment that is going to fail. So, do you think all this money will then be invested into the new methods? The answer is NO, not right away. Just like the North Korean leader's blindness, the old ways are just too addicting. "Keep it the same," they will yell. "The fall is temporary," they will say. "It always worked before, and it always will." Many investors will lose fortunes. The dysfunction is already being seen clearly. When you turn on your media at night, much of what you hear in the commercial breaks is how the chemistry didn't work! Now you get a chance to join others and sue the pharma companies for bad chemistry! You think something is beginning to break? It is. You see, they are already wallowing in something that's going to make them fail. They are advertising how broken the very system is. Both big pharma and their investors don't see the light coming yet, even though it is becoming dysfunctional before their eyes.  ..."
