Hoodia Gordonii Plus -Stave off hunger

Matthias Rath, M.D.- "In recent years the pharmaceutical industry has been exposed as a multi-trillion dollar ‘investment business with disease’ the future of which is dependent on the continuation and expansion of diseases. The very existence of the pharmaceutical industry is currently threatened. Damage claims from the deadly side effects of one single drug are bringing down Bayer, the flag ship of this industry. The ensuing ‘domino effect’ would inevitably cripple this largest investment sector on earth. At the same time, scientific advances in non-patentable natural health offer effective, safe and affordable alternatives to the multi-trillion dollar market of patented drugs."

"The survival of the pharmaceutical industry is dependent on the elimination by any means of effective natural health therapies. These natural and non-patentable therapies have become the treatment of choice for millions of people despite the combined economic, political and media opposition of the world’s largest investment industry. To protect the strategic development of its investment business against the threat from effective, natural and non-patentable therapies, the pharmaceutical industry has – over an entire century - used the most unscrupulous methods, such as:

(1) Withholding life-saving health information from millions of people. It is simply unacceptable that today so few know that the human body cannot produce vitamin C and lysine, two key molecules for connective tissue stability and disease prevention.
(2) Discrediting natural health therapies. The most common way is through global PR campaigns organized by the Pharma-Cartel that spread lies about the alleged side effects of natural substances – molecules that have been used by Nature for millennia.
(3) Banning by law the dissemination of information about natural health therapies. To that end, the pharmaceutical industry has placed its lobbyists in key political positions in key markets and leading drug export nations."The Laws of the Pharmaceutical Industry

Toxic Cosmetics and Environment - Toxic Body
The amount of toxins in our environment has reached a level where the FDA now has designated "permissible" levels of dioxin and other harmful chemicals in the environment, food and cosmetics. Today we have over 300 chemical toxins including dioxin in the tissues that were not found in any human before 1940. Make-up and body care products have been linked to allergic reactions, birth defects, and even cancer. It is a medically recognized fact that our body absorbs significant amounts of what we put on our skin. The absence of government oversight for this $35 billion industry leads to companies routinely marketing products with ingredients that are poorly studied, not studied at all, or worse, known to pose potentially serious health risks.

Colon Cleansing

This article is not for the squeamish. You may not wish to know what you're about to read, but never mind, I think you should read it anyway!!

Extract from "The Definitive Cure of Chronic Constipation", by Prof. A. Ehret:

"A physician of Berlin, whose life work was the performing of autopsies, stated that 60 per cent of all the corpses contained in the alimentary canal various foreign matter - worms and petrified feces - and he further stated that in nearly all cases the walls of the intestines and colon were lined with a crust of hardened feces, making it evident that these organs had degenerated to a state of utter inefficiency. Progressive American physicians are rapidly awakening to the fact that retained fecal matter is one of the chief causes of disease.

Autopsies are constantly revealing indescribable filthy astounding conditions. One physician publishes the following:

" 'I have found a prototype of the cause of all diseases of the human body, the foundation of premature old age and death. Surprising as it may seem, out of two hundred and eighty-four cases of autopsy held, but twenty-eight colons were found to be free from hardened feces and in a normal and healthy state. The others, as described above, were to a more or less extent encrusted with hardened, rotten, rejected food material. Many were distended to twice their natural size throughout their whole length with a small hole through the center and almost universally these last cases mentioned had regular bowel evacuations daily. Some of them contained large worms from four to six inches in length." MORE

Getting a Natural Colon Cleanse Can Help With Weight Loss

If you're like many people, you've probably struggled with weight loss at some point in your life. If often feels like there are just two sorts of people in this world--those whose metabolism makes weight loss almost unintentional, and those who constantly struggle just to drop a few pounds. And no one can agree: there are so many different diets which claim to make you lose weight. Picking the best one is reduced to trial and error until you figure out which one works best for you. But here's something you may not have known: if your digestive system is not working at peak efficiency, that excess weight may not care what kind of diet you try.

Your colon health has a major effect on many of your body's organ systems. The very best way to keep your colon healthy is if you eat a diet which is rich in fiber. The highly-processed foods of the modern world are packed with manmade ingredients, making them extremely bad for your digestive system, no matter how "fast" they are. Remember, it's never too late in life to improve your dieting habits and to start encouraging good colon health, but that may not be enough. If you haven't been eating properly for some time, you may have accumulated a buildup of fecal matter that must be cleansed if you're going to stay healthy. MORE

Rice Bran Lowers Diabetic Blood Sugar

By Salynn Boyles
WebMD Medical News

Reviewed by Gary D. Vogin, MD

April 10, 2002 -- Diabetics may have a new weapon to help them lower their blood sugar levels. Rice bran was able to lower blood glucose by up to 30% in a small group of patients with type 1 or 2 diabetes participating in a pilot study.Researchers report that one out of four diabetics taking part in the 57-subject study were able to reduce their daily injection of insulin or medication dosages after adding stabilized rice bran to their diets for just two months. The findings were reported in the March issue of the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry. "These are preliminary findings, and they need to be duplicated in a larger group of patients taking rice bran as a nutritional supplement for longer periods," says lead researcher Asaf A. Qureshi, PhD. "But in this study, rice bran proved to be very good at lowering blood glucose levels."Qureshi and colleagues at Advanced Medical Research in Madison, Wis., also found that patients with elevated cholesterol who consumed 20 grams per day of stabilized rice bran lowered their total serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels between 5% and 15%. The rice bran formulations evaluated by the researchers are manufactured by the California nutraceutical company NutraStar Inc. In company literature, rice bran is touted as "the most nutritious food on earth," and NutraStar markets its four rice bran products for a host of conditions including arthritis, constipation, and joint problems.But the diabetes research is the first human trial to offer scientific evidence of rice bran's benefit. Studies have shown that eating a high-fiber diet lowers blood sugar levels, but the water-soluble rice bran that worked best in the study was not high in fiber. Nutritionist Barbara Levine, RD, PhD, agrees that larger trials are needed to confirm the study's findings. But she says that the promising early findings are intriguing. Levine is director of the Human Nutrition Program at New York's Rockefeller University.
Levine cited findings from the ongoing Framingham Heart Study showing that obese people with type 2 diabetes have a 99% chance of developing heart disease. The CDC now estimates that 35 million Americans have diabetes.

"Right now there is very little out there for diabetics, other than medication," she says. "There is an epidemic of diabetes in this country, and it is largely linked to the epidemic of obesity. The most important thing diabetics can do is keep their weight under control and eat appropriate foods. But if soluble rice bran can help, I'm all for it."

Glucosamine and Osteoarthritis

Did you know that some clinical trials have reported more side effects caused by a sugar pill (placebo) than by glucosamine!

This is because glucosamine is a natural supplement already found in the human body. It’s there to build and maintain cartilage, tendons and other connective tissues of the body while inhibiting the growth of cartilage-destroying enzymes, which are the main shock absorbers of our body and joints.

Benefits of Coral Calcium

Coral Calcium offer the body a rich supply of necessary calcium combined with a wide range of other essential and naturally occurring marine minerals such as iron, zing, selenium, manganese and potassium. Coral Calcium collected from the ocean floor around the small Japanese island named Okinawa contain more than 70 different compounds of which many have been proven necessary for our health and wellbeing.

Coral calcium from Okinawa contains averagely 24 percent calcium. Many manufacturers of coral calcium add vitamin D to their products to increase the benefits of coral calcium. Vitamin D is used by the body when absorbing calcium and without sufficient amounts of vitamin D the benefits of coral calcium in the human body will decrease significantly. MORE

Value of Vitamins and Multivitamins

Dietary Insurance: A Daily Multivitamin

In the past, experts claimed that if people ate healthy diets, taking vitamins was not necessary. However, research is now showing that it is beneficial for the majority of adults to take a multivitamin each day.Scientists have discovered evidence showing that vitamins do not just keep away deficiency diseases such as rickets and scurvy. Taking more than the minimum daily requirements of certain vitamins may avert the onset of chronic diseases including osteoporosis, cancer, and heart disease.The purpose of this summary is to offer information on why people should take multivitamins, how to improve your diet to increase vitamin intake, and to show newly suspected or acknowledged roles of certain vitamins in health and disease prevention.

Research: Omega Oils Influence Mood, Impulsivity and Personality

Source: Decision News

06/03/2006 - People who have high intakes of omega-3 fatty acids are more agreeable and less impulsive, says a new study from Pittsburgh.

Previous studies have linked low levels of omega-3 to several neurobehavioral disorders, while rowdy British kids supplemented with omega-3s showed improvements in behavior and learning after only five months.

The new results show that people with low blood levels of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) docosahexaenioc acid (DHA) were more likely have mild-to-moderate depression (as scored by using the Beck Depression Inventory).

High serum levels of DHA were related to more ‘agreeableness’ while people with low linolenic acid (LNA) levels were linked to being more ‘impulsive’.

Sarah Conklin from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine said: “A number of previous studies have linked low levels of omega-3 to clinically significant conditions such as major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, substance abuse and attention deficit disorder.

“However, few studies have shown that these relationships also occur in healthy adults. This study opens the door for future research looking at what effect increasing omega-3 intake, whether by eating omega-3 rich foods like salmon, or taking fish-oil supplements, has on people’s mood.”

Only last week a panel of experts the American Association for the Advancement of Science said that the benefits of eating seafood continue to outweigh the risks.

“The best science coming out over the last two years has overwhelmingly been in favour of the benefits of seafood consumption,” said Michael Morrissey from Oregon State University’s Seafood Laboratory.

Morrissey stressed that pregnant women should stick with current FDA recommendations of about 12 ounces (340 grams) per week. The rest of the population should be eating fish four to seven times per week.

EPA is proposed to function by increasing blood flow in the body. It is also suggested to affect hormones and the immune system, both of which have a direct effect on brain function.

DHA, on the other hand, is involved in the membrane of ion channels in the brain, making it easier for them to change shape and transit electrical signals.

Monitoring the air quality in your home by Kate Callander
According to the EPA, up to 85% of our exposure to pesticides comes from indoor sources.

When you think about air pollution, what comes to mind? Smog? Brown Cloud? Cars? How about “home”? Recent studies by the EPA show that the air inside homes and buildings is on average two to five times more polluted than the air in even the most industrial cities (1). With North Americans spending an average of 90% of their time inside, indoor air pollution can pose a serious health risk.

So what’s causing this toxic indoor environment? The culprits run the gamut from mold to invisible gases to household cleaning products. Let’s take a look at some common indoor air pollutants and how to eliminate them from your home.

Biological Pollutants
Not only do household allergens like mold, mildew, animal dander, and dust mites cause common irritations like sneezing and headaches, these biological contaminants have also been estimated to lead to 200,000 emergency room visits per year by asthma patients (2).

Biological pollutants can be reduced through regular household cleaning, removing mold and mildew from damp areas, washing bedding and pillows, and changing humidifier water regularly.

Radon
This colorless, odorless gas is actually the second leading cause of lung cancer, implicated in anywhere from 7,000-30,000 deaths every year (3). Radon gas naturally rises from the ground and dissipates into the air. The problem arises when structures such as homes are built over “hot spots,” thereby trapping the gas inside. When breathed in, radon reacts with lung tissue, causing damage that over time can lead to lung cancer.

The only way to know if your home has high levels of radon is to test for it. Radon test kits are now available for homeowners to check radon levels in the home.

Carbon Monoxide
There’s yet another colorless and odorless gas besides radon that may be lurking in your home, but this one could be far more dangerous. Carbon monoxide gas is a deadly indoor air pollutant and can be generated from the incomplete combustion of fuel in household devices like gas stoves, furnaces, water heaters, fireplaces, and cars. Carbon monoxide inhibits the transport of oxygen through the body. At low levels of exposure, it may cause dizziness, vomiting, muscle aches, and general weakness. Prolonged exposure to carbon monoxide can lead to death.

The number-one way to protect yourself and your family from carbon monoxide poisoning is to purchase a carbon monoxide detector. These units function like smoke detectors and go off when carbon monoxide levels get too high. In addition, it’s wise to have a professional check all fuel burning devices in your home (the flames should be blue), never bring burning charcoal indoors, never leave cars running in an enclosed or attached garage, and always open the flue before starting a fire.

Formaldehyde
Carpets, upholstery, drapery fabric, and plywood paneling may be releasing chemicals such as formaldehyde into your air. Formaldehyde is classified by the EPA as a possible carcinogen. Exposure to the chemical may cause headaches, eye, nose, and throat irritation, dizziness and coughing. To make matters worse, the adhesives in new carpeting may release a potentially dangerous gas, which is responsible for that “new carpet smell.” New clothing is also typically preserved with formaldehyde.

To reduce risk, open windows and ventilate the area when new carpeting and furnishings are installed, and ask retailers for information on carpet and upholstery emissions. Also, wash new clothing before wearing it.

Household Products and Pesticides
Finally, let’s look at what is probably the most common source of indoor air pollution – household products. The cleaners, disinfectants, paints, varnishes, and glues designed to make life easier also release many harmful chemicals into the air of our homes. Compounds from these products can pollute both while they are in use and while they are in storage.

Surprisingly, even personal care products can contribute to indoor pollution. Products like hairspray, hair dye, air fresheners, and nail polish removers contain chemicals that evaporate easily into the air and can lead to dizziness, headaches, and irritation to the eyes, nose, and throat. Take note that aerosol sprays release more chemicals into the air because they disperse the product in tiny, airborne droplets.

What may come as a surprise to you is that many pesticides are also found inside homes. Pesticides are used to kill or repel, and according to the American Lung Association even a disinfectant is a pesticide. Carpets act as reservoirs for the pesticides we track in from outdoors, retaining these chemicals for years even though they would break down within days outside. In fact, 85% of our exposure to pesticides comes from indoor sources (4).

The chemicals in household products and pesticides found indoors can cause dizziness, headaches, irritation to eyes, nose, and throat, nausea and even cancer. An estimated 3,000 cases of cancer each year in the U.S. are thought to be caused by long-term use of household products and pesticides (5). This health risk can be reduced by using natural, non-toxic methods of cleaning and pest control, and reading the label warnings before using toxic products. (An online source for nontoxic home cleaning products recommended by ChangeYourLifetime.com is Veruini Natural Cleaners.)

Simple daily adjustments can greatly reduce your risk of living in a polluted home. Remember to read labels, keep toxic product lids tight, ventilate your home, get detectors, and avoid the use of toxic products whenever possible. Also, spread the word about indoor air pollution, because once folks have a better understanding of what may be making the air in their homes unhealthy, they will be better armed to make choices to protect their health and the health of the Earth.

Signs of Possible Indoor Air Pollution:

• Stale or stuffy air; unusual odors
• A tightly constructed home (especially new homes)
• Noticeable health reactions from remodeling, redecorating, installing new carpet, or moving to a new home
• Feeling noticeably better outdoors—Healthy Indoor Air for America’s Homes, EPA
