"The safety of our blood system is being jeopardized," says blood safety and health care advocates
Ottawa,
Ontario- Advocates for blood
safety and health care held a joint media conference earlier today calling on
the federal government to revoke the license of Canadian Plasma Resources and
implement the recommendations of the Krever Inquiry which called for blood and
blood products to be collected from voluntary, non-renumerated
donors.
"Despite
the recommendation for 100 per cent voluntary, non-remunerated blood collection
by the World Health Organization, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent
Society, and many others, Canada has just begun remunerating donors," said
Adrienne Silnicki, Canadian Health Coalition. "I don't understand why Federal
Health Minister, Jane Philpott, is allowing Canada to move backwards and
jeopardize the safety of our blood system. Despite evidence from other countries
which show a donor-remunerated plasma system will directly compete with our
voluntary system, the Federal government has still given CPR the green
light."
In
February, Health Canada gave an establishment license to Canadian Plasma
Resources so that they could begin collecting plasma from donors that would be
compensated with a $25 gift card. CPR has set up collection centres next to
methadone clinics, homeless shelters, university campuses and across the street
from payday loan centres and pawn shops.
"Our
blood system came on the backs of people burying their kids. 30,000 people were
infected with hepatitis C; 2,000 people were infected
with HIV and now we're showing that we haven't learned our lesson," said Andrew
Cumming, co-infected hemophiliac.
"It is the sole responsibility of Canadian Blood Services to collect
all blood and plasma on behalf of the public. Selling off a major
stake in our blood system contravenes the promise that was made to
Canadians in the most fundamental way since our blood tragedy, this
situation is a total betrayal of public trust. Selling off our
blood system to the pharmaceutical
industry is not an option," said Kat Lanteigne, Co-founder of
Bloodwatch.org.
The Canadian Health Coalition and Bloodwatch.org are calling on the
federal government to revoke Canadian Plasma Resources' license and implement
Mr. Justice Horace Krever's recommendations from his inquiry into the tainted
blood scandal. Among those recommendations were:
1.
That the Canadian blood supply be governed by five basic principles:
Blood is a public resource. Donors should not be paid.
Sufficient blood should be collected so that importation from other
countries is unnecessary.
Access to blood and blood products should be free and universal.
Safety of the blood supply system is paramount. (Recommendation #2)
2. Whole blood, plasma and platelets must be collected in sufficient
quantities to meet domestic needs for blood components and blood products (vol.
3, Recommendation #2, p.1047)
3.
Canadian plasma should be custom fractionated, in batches consisting only of
Canadian plasma...(Vol. 3, Recommendation #5, p.1051)
Krever also recommended that no part of the national blood operators duties be contracted out to other parties.
The Canadian Health Coalition and Bloodwatch.org are also calling on
provincial and territorial governments to implement legislation banning the sale
of blood and blood products as was done in Quebec and Ontario. To meet the
supply needs of Canadians for plasma used in medicines, Canadian Blood Services
must re-open the plasma collection centres they've closed in recent years and
open new, voluntary donation centres.

New Research Finds Canned Tomatoes As Effective As Fresh Vegetables In Helping People Eat More Vegetables
Latest Findings Presented at the 2016 Experimental Biology Conference
attended by over 14,000 scientists
OMAHA, Neb., April 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The new 2015 Dietary Guidelines
for
Americans recommend most Americans consume 2.5 cups of vegetables
a day, a goal almost 9 out of 10 Americans are not meeting (i)
. But research coming out of the Illinois Institute of Technology and presented
at the 2016 Experimental Biology Conference April 2-6 in San Diego,
Calif shows that canned tomatoes may be a good gateway vegetable to
help people meet these veggie goals.
The study, which looked at 21 adults' vegetable consumption, found that
participants who were encouraged to add either one cup of Hunt's
tomatoes or one cup of raw vegetables to their diets both increased their
total vegetable intake during the study. When eating canned tomatoes,
participants increased their intake to 2.28 cups, just shy of the
recommended 2.5 cups a day. When adding raw vegetables, they
increased it to 2.58 cups. The amounts were not statistically different
from each other, but were significantly higher than starting intakes.
"It's not news that people struggle to eat adequate vegetables,"
says Britt Burton-Freeman, PhD, Associate Professor of Food Science
and Nutrition, Illinois Institute of Technology. "This research showed that
fresh isn't the only way to meet vegetable requirements. In fact, encouraging
vegetable consumption from convenient sources like canned tomatoes, tomato
sauces, tomato paste and puree can help people more easily include
vegetables in their diets."
This research was supported by ConAgra Foods, Inc. (NYSE: CAG).

tomatoes into your diet.
ABOUT THE STUDY & METHODOLOGY
In the randomized, cross-over study, 21 adults were encouraged
to add either one cup of Hunt's canned tomatoes (sauce, diced,
whole, stewed or paste) or one cup of raw vegetables to their
diets for two weeks each to test whether they would be able to
increase their total vegetable intake. Participants' starting vegetable
intake was 1.43 cups. Food group intakes were assessed using
USDA's Food Pattern Equivalents Database.
Both groups increased vegetable consumption during the study.
The average total vegetable intake between Tomato and Raw
interventions at Week 2 were not statistically different, but both
were higher than starting intake. When eating canned tomatoes,
participants increased their daily total vegetable intake to 2.28 cups.
When adding raw vegetables, they increased it to 2.58 cups.

ACRES OF DAFFODILS AND DOGWOODS, PEONIES AND PERENNIALS PROMISE A SPRING SPECTACULAR IN WESTERN CONN
It’s no wonder that Western Connecticut is a magnet for flower lovers each
spring.
Ten acres of daffodils, seven acres of peonies, a neighborhood where thousands
of dogwoods bloom and a famous nursery’s multi-acre display garden make for
a spectacular start to the season in this scenic region of the state. And all of the
displays are open free to the public.
The beauty begins early in April at the Laurel Ridge Foundation near Litchfield.
The 10,000 daffodil bulbs sowed here in 1941 have multiplied many times to
form a sea of yellow and white carpeting acres of woodland fields. Everyone
is invited to enjoy the scene during blooming season through May, when grounds
are open from dawn to dusk. The area is closed the rest of the year. The Laurel
Ridge Foundation is located on Wigwam Road, off Route 254 in Northfield,
near Litchfield. See details at litchfielddaffodils.com
Just in time for a special Mothers Day outing, the 81st annual Dogwood
Festival May 6 to 8 will light up the historic Greenfield Hill neighborhood in
Fairfield. Plantings that began way back in 1705 have grown to prodigious
numbers that canopy the byways of this lovely area. Besides the dogwoods,
the festival offers New England artisans and crafters, an art show, a tag sale,
a plant boutique, live music, and children’s activities. Greenfieldhillschurch.com
Mid-May brings the annual Peony Festival, a Technicolor floral show in
Thomaston, where Cricket Hill Gardens is celebrating its 27th anniversary
as a prize source for these big, beautiful blossoms.
The family-owned gardens
are a prime source for rare Chinese tree peonies. among the largest and most
colorful of all flowers. Over 400 varieties can be seen in the seven acre peony
display garden, along with a demonstration orchard of fruit trees such as
Asian pears, pawpaws, persimmons, quinces, and heirloom apples.
Tree peonies are expected to bloom this year from the third week of May
to early June, followed by herbaceous peonies and intersectional peonies
to the third week of June. The public is invited during this peak season,
when Cricket Hill will be open Tuesday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

sources for bulbs and perennials, opens its many acres of extravagant d

Freshslice Pizza: British Columbia Based Freshslice Pizza Shatters All Records With The New Opening in Prince George
British Columbia Based Freshslice Pizza
Shatters All Records With
The New Opening in Prince George
- Earlier this month,
Freshslice Pizza had their soft opening in Prince George,
British Columbia and shattered all sales records and is following up this
Saturday, April 2 with its official Grand Opening!
"With our closest restaurant almost 1,000 kilometers away in Vancouver,
this new record is a strong testament to the brand power our system
has built up over the years. I won't be surprised to see more records
fall as we grow across Canada," said Ray Russell founder and C.E.O. of
Freshslice Pizza.
Prince George is a new beachhead for this aggressively growing successful B.C.
based brand and so it was chosen as the ideal location to unveil its new
"Vision 2020" interior. The project to upgrade the look of the physical plant
started April 2015 and saw an investment of more than 1,000 hours of
Freshslice senior management time.
Gord Metcalfe, owner of PixxelFactory Design Studio in Burnaby, B.C.,
says the new esthetic is meant to make the dine-in experience more
comfortable and inviting. "We sought to freshen the look of the stores to
better comport with 21st-century tastes, combining some traditional
old-world elements, such as a vaulted ceiling feature clad in aged brick with
a light, modern colour palette adjacent to a muted mix stone, contemporary
floor and wall tile, subtle wood grains and metal accents," he says, adding several
existing restaurants are slated to be renovated. The redesign also incorporates
high-resolution, panoramic photo wall graphics, an array of more traditional
glass pendants, contemporary sculpted glass suspended units and recessed,
linear LED lights.
"We want our customers to walk into our pizzerias and think of them as
world-class, but success ultimately depends on the people behind the counter,"
Russell says. Several Grand Opening ongoing activities are planned for
this Saturday opening from 11 am, at the 999 Central Street,
Prince George location.
94.3 FM, the GOAT will be on site 2-6pm with special giveaways every hour.
"Pizza by the slice is something new and exciting in this market! When
I met Ray and the Freshslice team last year, I knew that this was an up
and coming and brand and that I wanted to be a part of it! We are very
excited to continue to expand the Freshslice brand in the North!
" Stewart Malqunas ex N.H.L. professional hockey player, and newest
Freshslice Franchisee Partner said.
Freshslice Pizza is the fastest growing B.C. based pizza franchise which has
grown to over 70 locations in British Columbia over the last 16 years,
picking up the Consumers' Choice Award for Business Excellence
along the way. As a healthy alternative Freshslice features multigrain
dough low fat mozzarella and low calorie sauces as well as several
side dishes, desserts, and gluten free options.
