The 10 Best Foods For Energy

The following ten super-charged foods will give you a lot of benefits to your overall health as well as temporary immediate energy.  Eating smaller healthier meals is also a key

10 best foods for energy:

• Oatmeal: Don’t forget the oatmeal ever! Start your day with oatmeal. This is an excellent healthy food that not only makes digestion easier but also stabilizes blood glucose level (because of its complex carbohydrates and fibre content). Fiber content in the oatmeal helps you to get a steady stream of energy. Oats also contain Vitamin B which helps transform carbohydrates into usable energy.

• Peanut Butter: Peanut butter is an excellent source of protein and good source of fiber. The soluble fiber in peanut butter prevents dietary fat and helps to control blood glucose. Peanut butter also rich with the amino acid arginine that helps to relax blood vessels and better blood pressure control. (Peanuts and peanut butter do carry with them some perils.)

• Avocado: Like peanut butter, avocado is also rich with unsaturated fats.  It also contains other nutrients such as Vitamin B6, Vitamin C and folate.  Avocado is also good for heart as it reduces the chances of heart attack. Avocadoes are very good for the skin as well.

• Blueberries: Blueberries are high in manganese, fiber and Vitamin K. All these are great to reduce blood cholesterol level and improve condition of the heart. Blueberries are the number one antioxidants fruit. Antioxidants help to get rid of free radicals and balance the protein level.

• Citrus Fruits: Vitamin C is extremely important for gaining energy.  Also, the minerals and dietary fibre that present in the citrus fruits are necessary for the growth of the body. Besides these, citrus fruits contain fructose, glucose and sucrose and citric acid.  Oranges, grapefruit and lemon are the best citrus fruits for good health. Although drinking OJ will give you a quick shot of energy, it is very high in sugar. Normally eating the fruits in moderation, rather than drinking juice, is the better option for overall health.

• Watermelon: A refreshing fruit- contains fatigue fighters like, Vitamin C, lycopene, iron, and potassium. Great source of water that keeps you hydrated for a long time. ( Melon of all kinds should be eaten alone,  at least 15 minutes to half an hour before other foods.

• Yogurt: A highly nutritious food which contains Vitamins B2, B5 and B12. Plus, a great source of protein, calcium, zinc, phosphorous, iodine. Yogurt is a very good health food, especially Greek-style yogurt.

• Apples: Another great fruit, rich with Vitamin C and many antioxidant compounds. Apples are fantastic health food and benefit us in many ways. Another fruit that is good for energy boosting is banana. Rich with carbohydrate and potassium- it’s a great energizing snack.

• Sardines: A lean protein food-contains an amino acid called tyrosine. This helps to improve mental function. Besides sardines, salmon (rich with omega 3 fatty acids) is also very good for health.

• Spinach: Good source of Vitamin B and folic acid. It’s a high energy food along with sprouts, broccoli, and asparagus. Sweet potatoes are also very energy-boosting. Rich with copper, dietary fibre, iron, potassium, manganese. But that’s not all sweet potatoes are also good sources of Vitamin A, B6 and C. An excellent energy food rich with a lot of valuable nutrients.

Figs, beans, lentils etc. are also good energy-boosting foods. And don’t forget the coffee.

Vitamin B energy drinks can also be helpful, but should only be taken when really needed.

Carbs, sugar and gluten should be eaten in moderation.

Time to Stock Up on Incandescent Bulbs Before They Go Out Permanently

If your New Year’s resolution is to change your light bulbs, don’t worry — the federal government’s here to help.

Beginning January 1, 2014, the federal government will ban the use of 60-watt and 40-watt incandescent light bulbs. The light bulb has become a symbol in the fight for consumer freedom and against unnecessary governmental interference into the lives of the American people.

In 2007, Congress passed and President George W. Bush signed into law an energy bill that placed stringent efficiency requirements on ordinary incandescent bulbs in an attempt to have them completely eliminated by 2014. The law phased out 100-watt and 75-watt incandescent bulbs last year.

Proponents of government-imposed efficiency standards and regulations will say, “So what? There are still plenty of lighting options on the shelves at Home Depot; we’re saving families money; and we’re reducing harmful climate change emissions.”

The “so what” is that the federal government is taking decisions out of the hands of families and businesses, destroying jobs, and restricting consumer choice in the market. We all have a wide variety of preferences regarding light bulbs. It is not the role of the federal government to override those preferences with what it believes is in our best interest.

Families understand how energy costs impact their lives and make decisions accordingly. Energy efficiency has improved dramatically over the past six decades — long before any national energy efficiency mandates.

If families and firms are not buying the most energy-efficient appliance or technology, it is not that they are acting irrationally; they simply have budget constraints or other preferences such as comfort, convenience, and product quality. A family may know that buying an energy-efficient product will save them money in the long term, but they have to prioritize their short-term expenses. Those families operating from paycheck to paycheck may want to opt for a cheaper light bulb and more food instead of a more expensive light bulb and less food.

Some may read this and think: Chill out—it’s just a light bulb. But it’s not just a light bulb. Take a look at the Department of Energy’s Federal Energy Management Program. Basically anything that uses electricity or water in your home or business is subject to an efficiency regulation.

When the market drives energy efficiency, it saves consumers money. The more the federal government takes away decisions that are better left to businesses and families, the worse off we’re going to be.

Why do you think they call him "kill"-o-watt

All our lives, we had fluorescent in school, at work and in many public places. No one said boo. All of a sudden, people are throwing up, have headaches....etc etc because of the mercury contaminated curly craps. So, we are saving money and we’re reducing harmful climate change emissions?  But the new bulbs are making us sick and contain mercury?  So what is wrong with that picture?

Breaking! The Smart Meter Opt Out was ONLY an "Appeasement Plan"… The Goal: To halt the mounting opposition against the ‘smart grid’, and to shut down natural gas use…Yes, to shut down natural gas!

Climate Change Adaptation Plan By EXECUTIVE ORDER  -  EXCERPT FROM HERE --- CAP and TRADE CLIP

Stop the Crime/cross-posted at AskMarion – h/t to MJ: 

We have discovered the smart meter opt out's are a distraction, extortion and ONLY an appeasement while the smart meter deployments continue nationwide . . and while we are distracted and not asking the right questions.   

The goal of the smart meter opt out was to halt the raising opposition and create the illusion that we had a choice. . we have learned we DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE . . .we have NEVER had a choice, period.  Funded by the utility companies under the auspices of the public utility commissions, the Department of Energy and with White House directives along with stimulus funding, we were all FOOLED. . Private Corporations are taking over our cities and we are being systematically transformed into regional governments . . . Our futures are being reshaped under the name of sustainability. . We are not getting choices - we are being told what we can or cannot do by unelected officials in corporate agencies - and we have lost our local representative government. 

Understanding Federal Regionalism - The Abolishment of Local Government -http://www.barefootsworld.net/regional.html

How did all this happen to us?  Government Agencies have perfected the Rand Institute's Delphi Technique . . a technique used in "every" level on public meetings, every creation of public policy, every decision you think you make has been engineered by the Rand Institute.  All the alphabet corporate agencies are under the mother corporation of USA, Inc., and we have all been socially engineered by predetermined outcomes and told we have been part of open public debate, and we have not. . . All the years that many of us in Northern California have invested at the CPUC meetings, speaking out against the smart meters, has been engineered for the advancement of the predetermined outcomes as determined by the mega corporations and the international bankers using the Delphi Technique . . .

Here is what we found out - "Every" planning department in every city in the United States was required to create a "Climate Action Plan" or also referred to as an "Energy Action Plan" by the fall of 2012. . some cities completed their plan on time and other cities are still working on their plan.  The utility company in each city is working directly with that city planning department to create the plan. . in the lawless system we are now in this is not considered a conflict of interest.  BUT it gets far WORSE - for example in the "Energy Action Plan" for San Gabriel, San Marino and Covina (in Southern California) the plans state the following, in the Energy Action Plan Acknowledgements - This "Energy Action Plan" was prepared by PMC for the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments and the named city.  The preparation of this Plan was funded by Southern California Edison as part of the Local Government Strategic Plan Strategies Program funding for the 2010 - 2012 Program Period under the auspices of the California Public Utilities Commission" . . . another example in Santa Rosa, in Northern California -  the "Climate Action Plan" was based upon work supported by the Department of Energy Award Number DE-SC00001512 and further stating, "the report was prepared as an account of work sponsored by an agency of the United States Government.  Prepared by PMC with assistance from Sonoma State University Center for Sustainable Communities".  Santa Rosa's Climate Action plan also states the following: 

Sonoma County and the other nine municipalities in Sonoma County, established one of the most aggressive GHG reduction targets in the state and nation by committing to reduce GHG emissions 25% below 1990 levels by 2015.

This project was funded through an Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act. One of the goals of the EECBG program is to facilitate planning efforts and projects that will have a quantifiable effect on reducing energy use and GHG emissions while stimulating the economy and creating jobs.

Measure 1.2: Energy Efficiency in Existing Buildings

Facilitate energy efficiency upgrades and retrofits in existing commercial, residential, and industrial buildings by connecting residents and businesses with technical and financial assistance.

Action Items:

Action 1.2.1. Connect businesses and residents with voluntary programs that provide free or low-cost energy efficiency audits and financing assistance for energy- efficient appliances.

Action 1.2.2. Work with the Sonoma County Energy Independence Program (SCEIP) to offer low-interest financing and technical assistance to property owners for energy efficiency retrofits.

Santa Rosa - Measure 1.3: Smart Meter Utilization

Encourage existing development and require new development to utilize PG&E's Smart Meter system to facilitate energy and cost savings.

Action Items:

Action 1.3.1. Require new construction and major remodels to install real-time energy monitors that allow building users to track their current energy use.

Action 1.3.2. Inform the community of metering options, such as online applications and in-home monitors.

Action 1.3.3. Connect businesses and residents with rebate programs that give priority to appliances with smart grid technology.

Measure 1.6: Energy-Efficient Appliances

Facilitate the efficient use of energy for appliances in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.

Action Items:

Action 1.6.1. Seek funding sources to develop a rebate program for residents and businesses to exchange inefficient appliances with Energy Star certified models.

Cost estimates in the "Energy Action Plan" in San Gabriel to retrofit the average residence is $2,000 to $5,000 per household . . .

These plans discuss how increasing taxes, getting grants (bribes), structuring retrofit home mortgages to meet the costs requirements to implement the GHG reduction commitments agreed to by your city, for you. . .household and business monitoring programs will enforce the "required" reduction of resource use. . A third party energy manager will conduct monitoring, annually, to verify target GHG reductions are being met by the cities.  Keep in mind the partnerships are Private Public Partnerships . .

“Imposing such controls by executive order seems merely designed to prevent the American people from finding out the truth before the policies are implemented," he said. "Obviously, the ... report is silly."

PCAP’s call for an executive order comes with specifics. It asks the president to issue clear criteria for carbon regulations and to reform the tax code and federal regulations to support “a low-carbon rather than a carbon-intensive U.S. economy.”

Note: Some of the supporters of the Presidential Climate Action Project are the Rockefeller Brother Fund and Rockefeller Family Foundation - the Rockefeller's were on the ground floor and worked with Harvard College along with the United States Air Force back in the late 1940's to create the silent weapons system to gain "total" CONTROL of the civilian population.  The Operation Research Manuel is a Declaration of War against the civilian population by a group of persons in position of great power and without full knowledge and consent of the public. Please read the     "Silent Weapons Quiet Wars"

Continue to read the following excerpt taken from the link provided below . . .

An enormously valuable National Advisory Committee has supported the Presidential Climate Action Project (PCAP) over the past four years. Its members encouraged us to push the envelope of public policy in light of the urgency of global climate change, and they agreed that consensus would not be required, since consensus seeks the lowest common denominator in group work. Special thanks goes to Gary Hart and Ray Anderson for their co-chairmanship of the committee.

The project was the brainchild of Dr. David Orr of Oberlin College, who continues his cutting-edge leadership in the field of sustainability. PCAP was administered by the University of Colorado Denver School of Public Affairs during its first three years, and by Natural Capitalism Solutions in its final year. Thanks to Deans Kathleen Beatty and Paul Teske and to Hunter Lovins, the president and founder of Natural Capitalism Solutions.

PCAP has been funded by a variety of individuals and foundations. The project simply would not have been possible without each of them. Adam J. Lewis; Michael Northrop and Jessica Bailey of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund; and Ray Anderson and Mike Bertolucci at the Interface Environmental Foundation have been stalwart supporters throughout. Additional support came from the Sydney E. Frank Foundation, Tom and Noel Congdon, the Crown and Kunkler Family, the Arntz Family Foundation, the Krehbiel Family Foundation, John and Laurie McBride, the Rockefeller Family Foundation, the Bermingham Fund, Susan Sakmar, Rutt Bridges, Tara Trask, and Betsy Taylor. The Johnson Foundation provided invaluable support by hosting five conferences in which groups of national experts conceptualized and informed PCAP.

April Bucksbaum, Scott Bernstein and Jane Elder contributed significantly to the content of this final report. Jennifer Lukas helped enormously with research and proofreading.

PCAP has received ideas, advice and general intellectual support from hundreds of thought leaders and foot soldiers in the green movement in the United States and in Europe. In our 2008 report, we tried to list all of them to that point. We abandoned the effort in subsequent reports because contributors were simply too numerous to mention. But they know who they are, and we hope they know how much we appreciate their help. We’re grateful, also, to John Podesta and Todd Stern who as leaders of the Obama transition team sat down with us shortly after the election in November 2008 to go over our recommendations.

We also thank the many people, from Nobel Laureates to school children, who signed two of PCAP’s foundation documents: the Wingspread Principles on the U.S. Response to Climate Change and the State of the Climate Message.

BIG NEWS  - Natural Gas Equipment and Appliances are Being Phased OUT -

According to the Santa Rosa "Climate Action Plan" and other cities the plans require Energy Star ELECTRIC appliances:

BIG NEWS - This is in Chapter 4-10 of the Santa Rosa Climate Action Plan . . .

Measure 1.7: Appliance Electrification

Encourage residents and businesses to switch natural-gas- powered appliances to electric power, where appropriate.

Action Items:

Action 1.7.1. Utilize the energy-efficient appliance rebate program to facilitate the replacement of natural gas equipment with electric-powered equipment.

Action 1.7.2. Identify opportunities to implement additional programs that will switch appliances from natural gas to electricity.

Did you know there are NO Energy Star Gas Appliances?  

Did you know that the "Climate Action Plans" or the "Energy Action Plans" ALL Require Energy Star ELECTRIC Appliances?  

Did you know the cities Action Plans say Natural Gas and Coal are Non-renewables?

Did you know residents and businesses are to switch from natural-gas powered appliances and equipment to electric power?

Did you think about why electricity ONLY?  Of course this allows for greater "control" and restricts our choice of energy resources allowing for greater monitoring, higher costs and restrictions . . 

The city action plans "require" all new construction to implement smart meters and Energy Star Electric Appliances and Equipment.

Did you know BIG OIL Companies are shutting down coal and eliminating natural gas use?  This is a battle between the international banking cartels, and we are caught in the cross fire. .well not really.  Actually, the international bankers plan for us is in the "Silent Weapons Quiet Wars" agenda which discusses slavery and genocide.  The smart meter radiation is only part of the bankers silent weapons system to reduce the middle class, which the elites claim is a threat to their sovereignty, and to eliminate the majority of us for easier herd management.  We are being farmed and harvested as "cattle" - you will read this in the "Silent Weapons Quiet Wars".

Did you know that homeowners will be "nudged" at first to retrofit their homes and businesses with GHG reducing smart meters and RFID chipped, Energy Star Electric appliances?  If nudging doesn't work then mandatory polices will be put in place . .

Ever wonder WHY our aging underground gas pipeline system is NOT being repaired?  Lack of pipeline repair is why those suffered and died in the San Bruno Gas Pipeline Explosion, providing the story of what occurred, is correct.  Whatever the truth the story is gas lines blew up and we must fear gas lines blowing up under our streets in our neighborhoods . . . FEAR and media propaganda along with division and countless disinformation actors among us are leading us all into falsely created resource scarcity beliefs - which allow exactly what we all are witnessing with ever increasing toxins, lawlessness, no ethics or morals, more corruption and increasing danger to us all.  So, gas pipeline FEAR has been created and when the utilities tell us we MUST all go to electric we will comply and NEVER wonder WHY!

Ever notice how many street closures, in downtown San Francisco, occur that are due to underground gas line leaks?

The elimination of natural gas will explain why PG&E intentionally withheld repairs to the gas manifolds (meters) located on thousands of homes and businesses in Northern California. A PG&E gas employee went to the CPUC and the media when he discovered PG&E's internal documents that divulged criminal intent.  Here is a reminder of that event:

TV Coverage - PG&E - (Pacific Gas and Electric) in Northern California Finds Leaking Meters But Isn't Telling Homeowners -

http://www.kcra.com/PGE-Finds-Leaking-Meters-But-Isn-t-Telling-Homeowners/-/11798090/13460594/-/k3pga/-/index.html

______________________________________________________________

The StopTheCrime.net research team attended a PG&E Gas employee's meeting, in Northern California, and reported the following:

The gas employees were questioning management about why they were not filling the nearly 200 vacant job positions and why many excellent applicants were not be called back, much less hired.

Management responded by saying they were planning to update the gas department with newer technologies and younger employees that were computer literate.  That brought on a concerned debate with employees questioning their futures and the fact that management said they were an aging work force . . .The employees talked about a few resent young hires that were "completely" unskilled for gas work . . 

Most importantly, it was divulged that PG&E gas employees had not had any official company training for gas leak repairs.  The employees said they learned by working with the older experienced gas crews. . . Management told the employees that they were qualified experts and not to forget that.

Aiming for Zero

• Sustainability is NOT the same thing as Zero Energy. There is no such thing as zero energy. Energy does not exist in a vacuum – it always comes from somewhere and goes somewhere.

• Because there is always a cost to energy, trade-offs are inevitable in order to find a harmonious balance that offers the greatest efficiency and least impact on the environment.

• THIS IS THE ULIMATE GOAL – TO NOT USE ENERGY. THE MOST EFFICIENT ENERGY IS ENERGY WE DO NOT GENERATE! This is not a technology, it is behavior modification, or learning to live in a new reality.

Closing Comments:

Find out if you have a regional planning association in your city or area . .

Call your planning department and ask for the "Energy Action Plan" or the "Climate Action Plan".

Do NOT comply or allow a smart meter on you home or business . . .

We are in a new reality of massive data collection and the Global Smart Grid is being stealthily "deployed" for the purpose of transforming every we do . .

Here is yet one more article exposing the necessity of the 'system' to collect data.

The fate of mankind is under the direction of a ruthless monolithic conspiracy that has relied on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence - on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day.  It is a system that has conscripted VAST human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations.  in part by - John F.

"The Single Greatest Daily Energy Booster Since the Discovery of Coffee"

The odds are good you are deficient in this "energy vitamin" discovered by natural doctors

Vitamin B12 is known as the “energy vitamin,” and it is essential for many critical functions in your body, including energy production, supporting your immune system, and helping to regulate the formation of red blood cells.* Recent studies from the US Framingham trial show that one in four adults in the US are deficient in this vitally important nutrient and nearly half of the population has suboptimal blood levels.

Vitamin B12 is present only in animal sources of food--which is one of the reasons I advise against being a strict vegetarian or a vegan. This deficiency can result in less than optimal nervous system function, a tendency toward nervousness, and even less-than-optimal eye health.

The older you get the more likely you are to have a vitamin B12 deficiency. The two ways that you become deficient in vitamin B12 are from not getting enough in your diet and from losing the ability to absorb it.

I recently visited India which is primarily a vegetarian based culture and current studies there show about 80% of the adults are deficient in vitamin B12. However, vegans are not the only ones who can become vitamin B12 deficient.

The older you get the more your digestive system breaks down, especially if you have been following the standard American diet. Specifically the lining of your stomach gradually loses its ability to produce hydrochloric acid which releases vitamin B 12 from your food. The use of antacids or anti ulcer drugs will also lower your stomach acid secretion and decrease your ability to absorb vitamin B 12. Infection with Helicobactor pylori, a common contributor to stomach ulcers, can also result in vitamin B12 deficiency.

However the main cause of vitamin B 12 deficiency is a term researchers call food-cobalamin malabsorption syndrome. Cobalamin is the scientific term for vitamin B12. This typically results when your stomach lining loses its ability to produce intrinsic factor which is a protein that binds to vitamin B12 and allows your body to absorb it at the end of your small intestine.
