DUH!

2012-01-03T20:16:00.000-08:00

Over 30 years ago Merck’s CEO, Harry Gadsden, said in an interview with Fortune Magazine that he was bummed that selling drugs was limited to sick people. He wanted Merck to be like Wrigley’s chewing gum and “sell to everyone”. Harry wanted to make drugs for, and sell to, healthy people!

As a direct result of the pharmaceutikill industry's push to "sell to everyone" deaths from correctly prescribed prescription drugs is now the number 5 cause of deaths in the USA, resulting in over 100,000 deaths each year!

Diabetes Drugs Don't Cure Diabetes, Study Shows

2011-07-20T06:24:00.000-07:00

A large-scale study at Duke University School of Medicine and published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that despite serious risks and dangerous side effects, diabetes drugs offer few benefits and simply don't live up to their claims.

Furthermore, practically all anti-diabetic drugs result in weight gain and eventual total dependency upon insulin injections, according to researchers Krentz, Nichols, and Gomez-Caminero in 2 recent articles published in Current Medical Research Opinion and Diabetes Obesity Metabolism.

Lead researcher Robert Califf of the Duke study said, "This is a sobering confirmation of the need to continue to focus on lifestyle improvements."

Unfortunately, the medical mainstream has failed miserably to help diabetic patients reverse their diabetes naturally. This failure is inexcusable considering that anyone can reverse type 2 diabetes and stop type 1 diabetes in its tracks in a few months or less once you understand the true cause of diabetes.

Diabetes is a metabolic disease caused by the Standard American Diet.

It produces dehydration, acidosis, low oxygen and damage from oxidation caused by free radicals.

These conditions produce not only diabetes but nearly all chronic degenerative diseases!

These conditions can be easily reversed by with nutrition.

Long-Term Metformin Treatment Linked to Vitamin B12 Deficiency

2011-06-15T02:58:00.000-07:00

Long-Term Metformin Treatment Linked to Vitamin B12 Deficiency: "In type 2 diabetes, long-term metformin treatment is linked to vitamin B12 deficiency, according to the results of a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled trial reported Online First May 20 in the BMJ" "Long term treatment with metformin increases the risk of vitamin B-12 deficiency, which results in raised homocysteine concentrations," the study authors write.

WHO panel warns that cell phone use may cause cancer

2011-06-05T08:22:00.000-07:00

WHO panel warns that cell phone use may cause cancer: "Scientists from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), a group affiliated with the World Health Organization (WHO), say that mobile phones are a 'possible' carcinogen that may be a cause of cancer. The findings, which support previous research on the subject, add to the growing body of evidence which suggests that the electromagnetic radiation emitted from mobile phones causes serious health problems.

'A positive association has been observed between exposure to the agent and cancer for which a causal interpretation is considered ... to be credible,' states the IARC. However, in the same train of thought, the agency claims that evidence is 'limited' to suggest that mobile phone usage is linked to glioma or acoustic neuroma, two types of brain cancer.

In 2009, IARC published a study in the Journal of Clinical Oncology that linked mobile phone usage to an 18 percent increase in brain tumor risk. And because it was observed that such tumors tended to form on the sides of brains where mobile phones were primarily used, the connection between the two is even more striking (http://www.naturalnews.com/027448_c...)."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
We recommend that you use ear phones with your cell phones, not blue tooth, which is actually worse, since it puts the emitter of the radiation deeper into your skull. Frequently shift the location of the phone on your body, left side, right side, back of the belt, etc. Finally, make sure you take massive amounts of antioxidants, which counteract the damage done by the cell phone radiation.

Lipoprotein (a) - How To Reduce

2011-03-22T18:57:00.000-07:00

Lipoprotein (a) - How To Reduce: "Lipoprotein A, commonly called Lp(a), is a major independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The optimum laboratory level should be under 20 mg/dl and preferrably under 14 mg/dl.

Currently, there is no medicine or drugs that to effectively lower your Lp(a). A high Lp(a) is genetically linked.

Fortunately, Mother Nature has provided us a much better non-toxic alternative. It consist of large doses of vitamin C, L-lysine, and L-proline. Vitamin C, L-Lysine and L-proline are the basic building blocks of collagen. When these vitamins enter our bodies, they form collagen in large amounts. This is necessary, as collagen must be replenished in blood vessels to remain healthy and plaque free over periods of time. The reason is simple - Lp(a) is manufacturered in the liver in response to aging vascular system and 'micro-fissures' in the endothelial vascular wall. The body, in its attempt to patch up these fissures, produce cholesterol and its relative Lp(a).
Unfortunately, Both cholesterol and Lp(a) are sticky , making them perfect for the job."

Statins Are Dangerous, Ineffective, Expensive Drugs!

2011-02-23T09:43:00.000-08:00

New study finds cholesterol meds don't work.

"Can it really be true that statins won't stop heart attacks?"
That was the incredulous headline in a recent edition of Britain's Daily Mail newspaper.
They were referring to a damning new analysis from the Cochrane Collaboration, which found that statins don't make a drop of difference for 99.9 percent of all low-risk customers conned into taking them.

Yes, conned -- because these are the customers (let's stop calling them patients) who've made statins into the world's best-selling drugs. They're the millions of people who take these meds every day despite no history of heart attacks or heart disease.

Heck, some don't even have high cholesterol levels.
So why are they taking them? Good question -- because it's certainly not doing them any good: The new study looked at 14 clinical trials involving more than 34,000 customers, and found you'd have to give 1,000 of these people statins every day for an entire year to prevent a single death.

Put another way, that's an absolute reduction of a tenth of a percent -- smaller than a statistical blip.
But hold on a minute, because even that teensy-weensy "benefit" is just a wild exaggeration!

The Cochrane team found evidence of bias and selective reporting of results to favor the meds -- which shouldn't be a stunner since most of the trials in the analysis were funded by statin makers.

And in addition to exaggerating the drug's supposed benefits, the researchers either hid the side effects or never even bothered to report them at all.

So let me report them here: Statins have been linked to intense and debilitating muscle pain, kidney failure, liver dysfunction, and cataracts. Some people have reported severe memory loss.

Britain's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency even warned recently that some statin users suffer from sexual problems, sleep loss, and depression.

So now that the cat's out of the bag and even the mainstream media has spotted it, let's get back to that headline: Can it really be true that statins won't stop heart attacks?
.
Yes, its true!

And now, the rest of the world knows it too.

The Anti Cancer Lifestyle!

2011-02-09T12:51:00.000-08:00

Lifestyle Changes Vital for Preventing Cancer

Lifestyle changes like eating a healthy diet, exercising, and limiting alcohol could prevent about 340,000 cancer cases per year in the United States, according to a new report released by the American Institute for Cancer Research for World Cancer Day. Worldwide, cancer is a leading cause of death accounting for 7.6 million deaths and 12.7 million new diagnoses per year. Lifestyle changes could decrease cancer risk by 38 percent for breast cancer, 45 percent for colon cancer, and 47 percent for stomach cancer.

Study Shows Beet Juice Lowers Blood Pressure in 3 Hours!

2011-02-01T10:09:00.000-08:00

Drinking only 250 ml of beet juice (about 81/2 oz) drops high blood pressure 10 points (mmHg) on the average –

WITHIN THREE HOURS!

This is a results of a study made by Dr. Amrita Ahluwalia, Professor of Vascular Biology at
Queen Mary’s William Harvey Research Institute in London, which was published in the
American Heart Association journal Hypertension.

Beet juice is a significant source of nitrates, chemicals that are converted in the body to nitrites, which act as vasodilators, opening up blood vessels and allowing blood to flow easily through the body. Clinical studies published in the professional journals "Hypertension" and "Nitric Oxide" found that this characteristic of beet juice helped reduced blood pressure and improve blood flow to the brain in older adults. As a result, the researchers theorize that nitrites in beet juice may help protect heart health and prevent cognitive decline in the aging brain.

A 2 in diameter beet contains about 35 calories and 8 gms of carbohydrates.

From Dr Al Sears When you eat it, the beet root is mixed with your saliva and bacteria on your tongue. This combo turns into nitric oxide.

When it gets to your stomach, another reaction occurs, and the natural nitrate is recirculated throughout your body. This helps your blood vessels relax and eases your blood pressure. You see the biggest drop 3-4 hours after eating beet root. But the effects last for up to 24 hours.8

You can get the most out of beet roots by either chewing them raw or throwing them in your juicer. You can also get the root extract in powder or capsule form. Take up to 1 gram of it each day.

Failure Of Diabetes Treatment Means Diabetes Will Double by 2050!

2011-01-28T23:03:00.000-08:00

An estimated 25.8 million children and adults in America have diabetes, according to new figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 2008, the figure was 23.6 million. About one in four is unaware of the condition. An additional 79 million now have pre-diabetes, 22 million more than estimated in 2008.

Mainstream medicine has no answer for the diabetic catastrophe engulfing us. They project that 1/2 the population will have diabetes by 2050, or sooner.

"Diabetes is a chronic disease that is incurable!" The American Diabetes Association

In fact, diabetes is not a disease, and is curable!

Many alternative medicine docs (Dr Stephen Ripicci, Dr Thomas Lodi,) etc view diabetes as a warning from the body that it is breaking down. The cardiovascular system, the nervous system and the kidneys are breaking down and you are dying. What about blood sugar?

Blood sugar is a symptom, not a cause of diabetes. Aggressively attacking blood sugar is not effective in curing diabetes and in fact, further destroy the diabetic body, culminating in death by heart attack for 80% of diabetics.

Diabetes, like most other chronic, degenerative "diseases," like cancer, heart trouble, fibromyalgia, acid reflux, osteoporosis, etc. are caused by Bad Food! "Serious diseases like cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, etc.that are linked to diet, Kill 2 out of 3 Americans each year!" National Cancer Institute.

Dr Caldwell Esselstyn, a noted cardiologist, discovered that heart disease was caused by diet. He has spent the last 20 years curing thousands of cardiovascular disease patients with diet. He has also written a best seller, "How to Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease" in which he describes his successes.

Dr Hiromi Shinya, a world famous oncologist, (cancer specialist), prevents and cures cancer with diet.

Bad food, the USDA approved Standard American Diet, SAD, damages the body and destroys its immune system, giving rise to the above mentioned chronic diseases.

You see, the body is designed to cure itself. Everyday, it defeats all types of diseases. This process, referred to broadly as "homeostasis" is how the body maintains its health by adjusting to external forces.

However, homeostasis, depends on maintaining certain conditions in the body.

Acid/Alkaline Balance
Adequate Oxygen
Adequate Hydration
Sufficient Antioxidants

Healthy cells require the Ph, or acid alkaline balance, to be slightly alkaline or a reading of 7.365 in order for the physiological and biochemical processes that define life to function normally.

They also require adequate oxygen to function.

The body is 70% water and sufficient water is needed by every cell to function correctly.

Free radicals, mutant chemicals that oxidize or damage every part of the cell, including its nucleus, can overwhelm the body's store of antioxidants.

The Standard American Diet is composed of foods and drinks that are acidic, upsetting the acid/alkaline balance and causing a deficit of oxygen in the cells.

The diet also is deficient in antioxidants as well as water. In other words, the SAD diet is made up of Bad Foods!

Good Foods are the true cure for these chronic, degenerative diseases, including acid reflux, Chron's disease, IBS and other gastrointestinal maladies.

The most important and most powerful Good Food, is Ionized Water. This is water that mimics the water from the healthiest waters found in pristine glacial streams found in places like the High Himalayas, Bad Nordenau in Germany, and in several sites in the Andes.

This water is naturally high in alkaline minerals, which combat the acid in the cells and restore their acid/alkaline balance. It is also a powerful antioxidant, neutralizing the dangerous free radicals, it is also loaded with extra oxygen.

Unfortunately, this natural water is not stable and therefore cannot be bottled and sold commercially. The Japanese, fortunately, have been able to reproduce the water's qualities by ionizing plain tap water. In Japan, these water ionizers have been used in hundreds of hospitals to treat all types of diseases over the last 25 years.The aforementioned Dr Shinya, the oncologist, makes ionized water a staple in his anticancer treatments.

Also, over 25% of Japanese citizens have one of these ionizers at home and not incidentally, the Japanese are the longest lived people on the planet!

Other Good Foods are fruits and vegetables. These are the foods that were our original foods, along with a little meat. Our body's are programmed to sustain life with these foods. They are alkaline and rich in antioxidants.

When you adopt a diet of Good Foods, your body cures itself!

If you have or know someone who has diabetes, send them to this link, it is my testimony of how I cured my type 2 diabetes. http://I-Beat-Diabetes.com

All Chronic,Degenerative Diseases Have One Cause!

2011-01-25T22:26:00.000-08:00

Now we depart from health in just the proportion to which we have allowed our alkalis to be dissipated by introduction of acid-forming food in too great amount... It may seem strange to say that all disease is the same thing, no matter what its myriad modes of expression, but it is verily so.

William Howard Hay, M.D.

More recently, in his remarkable book Alkalize or Die , Dr. Theodore A. Baroody says essentially the same thing:

The countless names of illnesses do not really matter. What does matter is that they all come from the same root cause...too much tissue acid waste in the body!

Theodore A. Baroody, N.D., D.C., Ph.D.

Dr Otto Warburg received the Nobel Prize in 1933 for discovering that cancer and pathogens appear and thrive under acidic, low oxygen environments.

Chronic, degenerative diseases are all caused by acidic, low oxygen environments!

How Could Drug Companies be so Evil? 5/15/04

2011-01-05T12:07:00.000-08:00

How Could Drug Companies be so Evil? 5/15/04: "By Dr. Joseph Mercola

According to the first comprehensive scientific review to include all available studies, including negative data that have long been withheld from public scrutiny by the pharmaceutical industry, four popular antidepressants being used to treat thousands of depressed American children are unsafe, ineffective or both. Those antidepressants are:

Paxil
Zoloft
Effexor
Celexa

This is damning evidence of the drug companies' patent disregard for the safety of humans and focus on profits. GlaxoSmithKline was found to be concealing evidence that shows that these drugs do not benefit children in any way and only increase their risk of killing themselves."

Med school professors paid big bucks to whore for drug companies !

2010-12-22T19:22:00.000-08:00

Welcome to your medical system run by Big Pharma.

Teaching hospital doctors receive millions of dollars to deliver speeches written by drug companies. The bottom line for the US medical industry? Just like everything else in American culture, it's about making money off other people, not health.

Faculty physicians stay on the industry lecture circuit, where they can net tens of thousands in additional income.

Critics of the practice say delivering talks for drug companies is incompatible with teaching future generations of physicians. That's because drug firms typically pick the topic of the lecture, train the speakers and require them to use company-provided presentation slides. They are in training to become drug salesmen for Big Pharma.

"You're giving someone else's messages, someone else's talk, someone else's judgments," said Dr. Bernard Lo, a medical professor at University of California, San Francisco who chaired a national panel [3] examining conflicts of interest in medicine. "We don't allow our students to use someone else's work."]

Examples are Dr. Alan Yeung [5], vice chairman of Stanford's department of medicine and chief of cardiovascular medicine who earned $53,000 [6] from Eli Lilly & Co. in 2009 and the first half of 2010.

Child psychiatrist Hans Steiner [7] was paid $109,000 [8] by Lilly to deliver talks about a drug for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

The practice of paying doctors to become Big Pharma shills is widespread. It forms one of the major sources of influence over the practice of medicine in this country.

Big Pharma's goal is to maximize their profits, patient's health is secondary.

Don't take your doctor's word about your treatment. Do your own research on the web.

Chicken McNuggets, Unsafe With Any Sauce!

2010-11-08T04:45:00.000-08:00

Would you take a bite out of a silicone seat cushion, even if it was dipped in Hawaiian Terriyaki BBQ sauce? If you eat chicken McNuggets you have!

One of the long list of artificial, laboratory food ingredients is dimethylpolysiloxane, an anti-foaming agent made of silicone!

Had any tertiary butylhydroquinone (TBHQ), lately, a chemical preservative so deadly that just five grams can kill you?

These are just two of the man made ingredients in a McDonalds Chicken McNugget. Only 50 percent of a McNugget is actually chicken. The other 50 percent includes (thanks to Organic Authority):

"White boneless chicken, water, food starch-modified, salt, seasoning (autolyzed yeast extract, salt, wheat starch, natural flavoring (botanical source), safflower oil, dextrose, citric acid, rosemary), sodium phosphates, seasoning (canola oil, mono- and diglycerides, extractives of rosemary).

Battered and breaded with: water, enriched flour (bleached wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), yellow corn flour, food starch-modified, salt, leavening (baking soda, sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, calcium lactate), spices, wheat starch, whey, corn starch.

Prepared in vegetable oil (Canola oil, corn oil, soybean oil, hydrogenated soybean oil with tertiary butylhydroquinone, TBHQ and citric acid added to preserve freshness). Dimethylpolysiloxane added as an antifoaming agent."

How BIG PHARMA Controls What Drugs Doctors Prescribe.

2010-10-04T11:05:00.000-07:00

All of the following are tools that federal investigators say companies have used to exaggerate benefits, play down risks and promote off-label uses, meaning those the F.D.A. hasn’t approved them: Cash "incentives", gifts, meals and trips for doctors and their families in some cases, biased studies, ghostwritten medical journal articles, promotional conference appearances, and payments for postgraduate medical education that encourages a pro-drug outlook among doctors, control of the curricula for secondary medical education, influencing hiring and firiering of academics, etc.

For example, Dr. Stefan P. Kruszewski, a Harvard-educated psychiatrist who once worked as a paid speaker for several drug makers, became a government informant and now consults for plaintiffs suing drug companies. Earlier in his career, he spoke at events for Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline and Johnson & Johnson as an advocate of antipsychotics. He said one company offered him incentives of $1,000 or more every time he talked to an individual doctor about one of its drugs.

“When I started speaking for companies in the late 1980s and early ’90s, I was allowed to say what I thought I should say consistent with the science,” he recalls. “Then it got to the point where I was no longer allowed to do that. I was given slides and told, ‘We’ll give you a thousand dollars if you say this for a half-hour.’ And I said: ‘I can’t say that. It isn’t true.’ ”

Slides for one new antipsychotic drug contended that it had no neurological side effects. “They made it all up,” Dr. Kruszewski said. “It was never true.”

*************************************************************************************Bill's comments:
To these drug companies, and their financial backers,it is all about their profit, the health and safety of the public be damned. Doctors, in many cases are willing to turn a blind eye to such drug industry tactics. Dr Kruszewsky is one of the small number of exceptions

NIH Study Finds Diet and Exercise Almost Twice As Effective As Metformin In Reversing Pre-Diabetes

2010-10-02T17:54:00.000-07:00

National Diabetes Information Clearing House, an arm of the National Institute of Health, launched a program called the The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP). It was a major multicenter clinical research study with over 3,000 participants aimed at discovering whether modest weight loss through dietary changes and increased physical activity or treatment with the oral diabetes drug metformin (Glucophage) could prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in study participants. At the beginning of the DPP, participants were all overweight and had blood glucose, also called blood sugar, levels higher than normal but not high enough for a diagnosis of diabetes—a condition called pre-diabetes.

The DPP found that participants who lost a modest amount of weight through dietary changes and increased physical activity sharply reduced their chances of developing diabetes. Taking metformin also reduced risk, although less dramatically. The DPP resolved its research questions earlier than projected and, following the recommendation of an external monitoring board, the study was halted a year early. The researchers published their findings in the February 7, 2002, issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.

Killing Cancer Cells with High pH Therapy

2010-09-07T20:10:00.000-07:00

Killing Cancer Cells with High pH Therapy: "Mass spectrographic and isotope studies have shown that potassium, rubidium, and especially cesium are most efficiently taken up by cancer cells. This uptake was enhanced by Vitamins A and C as well as salts of zinc and selenium. The quantity of cesium taken up was sufficient to raise the cell to the 8 pH range. Where cell mitosis ceases and the life of the cell is short. Tests on mice fed cesium and rubidium showed marked shrinkage in the tumor masses within 2 weeks. In addition, the mice showed none of the side effects of cancer. Tests have been carried out on over 30 humans. In each case the tumor masses disappeared. Also all pains and effects associated with cancer disappeared within 12 to 36 hr; the more chemotherapy and morphine the patient had taken, the longer the withdrawal period. Studies of the food intake in areas where the incidences of cancer are very low showed that it met the requirements for the high pH therapy."

*******************************************************
Bill's Comments:
*******************************************************
Ionized alkaline water (high Ph water) has a similar dramatic effect on cancer cells as the above cesium treatment. In fact, water and cesium are 2 of only 5 substances that can cross the cell membrane of cancer cells because of their low electrical state, only 40 millivolts as opposed to 90 millivolts of normal cells. Oxygen is one of the substances that cannot enter cancer cells.

Doctor Has Proof That Acidosis, Not Blocked Arteries Cause Heart Attacks!

2010-09-07T11:01:00.000-07:00

G-Strophanthin – A “New” Approach for Heart Disease
By WRF in Alternative Therapies
Coronary artery disease is currently the leading cause of death in the United States. Despite the increasing sophistication of surgical techniques, the introduction of new techniques such as balloon angioplasty, and a number of new drugs (e.g. beta blockers, calcium antagonists), it is estimated that over 1 million heart attacks will occur this year, resulting in 500,000 deaths. In short, we do not have an adequate therapeutic solution to the problem of myocardial infarction (heart attack).

The cornerstone of therapy for treatment and prevention of myocardial infarction is to remove blockages in coronary arteries that are thought to be the cause of the infarction. This adheres to the widely accepted coronary artery thrombosis theory of infarction; that is, arteries become clogged with plaque, damaged from such things as smoking or high cholesterol. A clot forms a fissure in the plaque. The clot may shut off the blood flow of the coronary artery, causing a heart attack. It is deceptively simple: The coronary arteries are clogged. No blood can flow, so the muscles of the heart cannot be supported, and heart metabolism stops, leading to death.

In Germany, another theory of myocardial infarction has been proposed by Dr. Berthold Kern (1911-1995). Dr. Kern, while performing autopsies in Germany in the 1930s and 1940s, observed that the findings of these autopsies did not corroborate the coronary obstruction hypothesis. He began researching the literature, looking for clues as to an alternative etiology. What he found was not only a new theory that may provide the missing piece of the coronary obstruction theory, but a therapy now being used by over 5000 physicians in Germany with reportedly remarkable success.

Dr. Kern’s claims, as set forth in his 1971 informational paper, Three Ways to Cardiac Infarction, can be summarized as follows:

1. The coronary obstruction theory cannot adequately explain observed facts.

2. The major etiologic factor underlying myocardial infarction is a primary chemical destructive process, cause by unchecked metabolic acidosis (accumulation of acid) in the left ventricular tissue and substantially unrelated to coronary artery disease.

3. The regular, clinical use of oral g-strophathin (a cardiac glycoside derived from the West African plant strophanthus gratus):

Prevents lethal myocardial tissue acidosis, and thereby
Substantially reduces the incidence of myocardial infarction and completely prevents infarction deaths.
Dr. Kern’s observations that most myocardial infarctions occur in patients without significant obstruction of the coronary artery supplying the infracted tissue finds great support in the American peer-reviewed literature. Since 1948, over a dozen reports of post-mortem examination of infracted hearts have consistently failed to corroborate the coronary artery thrombosis theory of myocardial infarction. That is, victims of fatal heart attacks have had no evidence whatsoever of coronary occlusion.

An example of the degree of non-confirmation can be ascertained by the following quote from a 1980 article on Circulation:

“These data support the concept that an occlusive coronary thrombus has no primary role in the pathogenesis of a myocardial infarct.” The reviewer went on to note, “These reports also present clear refutation of the most common explanation used today to dismiss autopsy findings which detect no coronary thrombi, i.e. that thrombi existed at infarction but have since lysed, embolized or washed away.”

There does not appear to be any literature that effectively refutes these autopsy findings.

Another source of inconsistent data are the many reports in the literature of myocardial infarction in patients without coronary artery disease, as deduced by normal coronary angiograms. Other autopsy data has revealed widely scattered areas of necrotic tissue that produces a substantial incongruence between the area of infarction and the arterial supply.

In a 1988 editorial published in the New England Journal of Medicine titled “Twenty years of coronary bypass surgery,” Thomas Killip observed that “Neither the VA [Veterans' Administration] nor CASS [the National Institute of Health's Coronary Artery Surgery Study] has detected a significant difference in long-term survival between the two assigned treatment groups [surgical vs. medical] when all patients have been included…”

More recent work with coronary angioplasty and anti-thrombolytic agents has also failed to demonstrate any clear cut improvements in survival.

Dr. Kern went a step further. In his review of the literature, he came across the notion of collaterals (or anastomoses), a finely-meshed network of small blood vessels that act as natural bypass channels in the heart muscle. These collaterals have been made visible by Professor Giorgio Baroldi in studies at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology.

Baroldi developed a technique for filling the arteries of the heart with artificial blood, a chemical substance that thickens in the blood vessels. When later the tissues were dissolved in acid, the entire structure of blood vessels in the heart was revealed. Kern hypothesized that bypass grafts were created naturally by the body via the collaterals whenever a coronary artery became blocked. Therefore, heart bypass would be redundant to a large degree.

A study by Rentrop et al in the April 1, 1988 issue of The American Journal of Cardiology has produced results completely at odds with the coronary artery blockage theory, and consistent with Kern’s hypothesis. In an accompanying editorial, Dr. Stephen Epstein of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute summarizes Rentrop and colleagues’ “extremely important observations.” They found that in an advanced state of the narrowing of the coronary arteries, the supply of blood to the heart muscles is fully assured via collaterals that enlarge naturally in response to the blockage. Interestingly, they observed that the more the coronaries narrow, the less danger there is of heart infarction.

Dr. Kern’s second claim, i.e. his proposed new theory of metabolic acidosis, can be summarized as follows: Metabolic conditions in the most healthy of hearts are, at best, marginal in the constantly beating left ventricle. This is the part of the heart responsible for pumping blood to most of the body, the right ventricle merely supplying the lungs. Oxygen and energy requirements are always perilously close to available supplies, and any of the several stressors may cause an oxygen/energy deficit, with deterioration in oxidative metabolism, and consequent development of acidosis. Lack of oxygen sets off the process of zymosis or fermentation metabolism, an anaerobic process, in order to produce energy in the cells. This, in turn, lowers the pH.

This lowering of the pH sets off a destructive chemical process, literally a suicide reaction of the cell. Lysozymal enzymes are released, causing cell self-digestion. This starts as a single point in the muscle, then many points, which eventually join to form a small area of necrotic tissue. Finally, a critical mass is reached, no bigger than the head of a pin, which triggers larger and larger areas of damaged tissue, resulting in infarction (heart attack).

Ideally then, the remedy to address infarction would be a restoration of pH balance to the heart muscle, thereby preventing tissue damage and fatal infarction. The problem Kern faced was how to accomplish this without causing positive inotropy [increasing the strength of the muscular contraction], i.e. without putting further stress on the contracting heart muscle itself. The cardiac glycosides, including digitalis and the strophanthin byproduct known as ouabain, are known to produce such a deleterious effect, and this is why they are not effective against infarction.

This is where Kern made an important re-discovery. In reviewing the literature, he came across the work of Dr. Edens, who in the 1920s had reported on a qualitatively different effect of strophanthin given intravenously versus orally. Specifically, the positive inotropic effects [that is, increasing contraction] that accompanied intravenous administration were not observed with oral administration.

This important observation has been confirmed in a study by Belz published in the European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology in 1984. Utilizing a randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind methodology, the researchers found that the intravenous ouabain (strophanthin) produced the expected increase in cardiac inotropy. However, the investigators stated quite definitely that, “… the single sublingual (oral) dose of ouabain did not exert a positive inotropic effect.”

The postulated mechanism of action, based on animal research done by Adams, Powell and Erdmann, is that there are two receptors in the heart: “High affinity” and “Low affinity.” It is thought that intravenous administration triggers low affinity receptors, and thus positive inotropy. High affinity receptors, on the other hand, react to small concentrations of g-strophanthin via oral administration, thereby avoiding the dangerous effect of positive inotropy.

Dr. Kern reported results of his clinical practice in Stuttgart over the period 1947-1968 involving over 15,000 patients. His patients treated with oral g-strophanthin experienced no fatal infarcts and only 20 non-fatal heart infarcts. These patients included many suffering infarction prior to entering the study. In contrast with these results, government statistics for the same time period would have predicted over 120 fatal heart attacks and over 400 non-fatal infarctions in a group of patients this size.

Currently, there are approximately 5000 M.D.s in Germany using and prescribing oral g-strophanthin. The booklet Eine Dokumentation ambulanz-kardiologischer Therapie Ergebnisse nach Anwendung oralen g-strophanthin represents the results of a survey wherein 3645 medical doctors made statements on use of this remedy in their practices from 1976 to 1983. Of these, 3552 gave exclusively positive testimony with no reservations. No one gave a negative response.

In addition to accumulating clinical experience, a number of studies have demonstrated excellent results with oral g-strophanthin. One fascinating report in a real-life setting took place at a German coal mine. During the period 1972-1974, miners suffered episodes of acute chest pain 229 times. Medical help was a two-hour ride away, and 11 miners died during this period. From 1975-1980, all miners who experienced acute chest pain (280 episodes) were immediately given oral g-strophanthin. During this period, which was twice as long as the comparison period, no miners died after the onset of symptoms. No toxic side effects were observed. Many variables were studied, i.e. age better access to treatment, different working conditions, etc to ensure comparability of observation periods.

A rigorous, double blind, randomized control study of oral g-strophanthin in the treatment of angina showed impressive results at statistically different levels. After fourteen days, 81% of patients in the treated group experienced a reduction in attacks, while in the control group, 72% receiving placebos registered an increase in attacks.

In a study of 150 seriously ill heart patients, who altogether had 254 heart attacks, oral g-strophanthin was successful in 85% of the cases. Dr. Dohrmann, who conducted the study, observed, “A positive result was registered when the severe heart attack abated at least five minutes after the g-strophanthin capsule was bitten through, and after ten minutes at the latest, they disappeared completely.”

A consistent feature of clinical reports using oral g-strophanthin is the absence of side effects. The cost of this remedy, which is currently available to German physicians and their patients, is approximately $30 per month for typical use.

At this point, every indication suggests that oral g-strophanthin may be a significant breakthrough in the treatment and prevention of myocardial infarction. What is needed is a definitive American clinical trial.

At an annual meeting of the American College of Cardiology in New Orleans, it was mentioned that every year one million US citizens suffer a heart attack. Of these, about 60 percent get to the hospital alive. About 16 percent never leave the hospital, and a further 10 percent die within a year. This should be keen motivation for a complete and intensive investigation of the benefits of g-strophanthin.

The prospect of replacing heart bypass surgery with a safer, more effective, and less expensive treatment may be another reason to interest other parties in funding American research on oral g-strophanthin.

Vitamin D for Inflammatory Bowel Disease 12/10/00: "Researchers from Pennsylvania State University note that 'Anecdotal data suggest that the amount of vitamin D available in the environment either from sunshine exposure or diet may be an important factor affecting the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in humans.'

They decided to test the theory in animal experiments by using mice genetically predisposed to develop symptoms resembling human IBD. The mice were separated into 3 groups.

�

One group was made vitamin D deficient

Another group was kept vitamin D sufficient

Another group was supplemented with active vitamin D (1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol).
Vitamin D deficient mice rapidly developed diarrhea and a wasting disease, leading to death.

The vitamin D sufficient mice did not develop diarrhea, waste or die.

However, mice who received the active vitamin D supplement had their symptoms of IBD significantly reduced in as little as 2 weeks. It also blocked the further progression of the disease.

Abstract
Increasing evidence in both experimental and clinical studies suggests that oxidative stress plays a major role in the pathogenesis of both types of diabetes mellitus. Free radicals are formed disproportionately in diabetes by glucose oxidation, nonenzymatic glycation of proteins, and the subsequent oxidative degradation of glycated proteins. Abnormally high levels of free radicals and the simultaneous decline of antioxidant defense mechanisms can lead to damage of cellular organelles and enzymes, increased lipid peroxidation, and development of insulin resistance. These consequences of oxidative stress can promote the development of complications of diabetes mellitus. Changes in oxidative stress biomarkers, including superoxide" dismutase, catalase, glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione levels, vitamins, lipid peroxidation, nitrite concentration, nonenzymatic glycosylated proteins, and hyperglycemia in diabetes, and their consequences, are discussed in this review. In vivo studies of the effects of various conventional and alternative drugs on these biomarkers are surveyed. There is a need to continue to explore the relationship between free radicals, diabetes, and its complications, and to elucidate the mechanisms by which increased oxidative stress accelerates the development of diabetic complications, in an effort to expand treatment options.

Abstract
The role of active oxygen species in diabetes is discussed in this review. Type I diabetes is caused by destruction of the pancreatic beta cells responsible for producing insulin. In humans, the diabetogenic process appears to be caused by immune destruction of the beta cells; part of this process is apparently mediated by white cell production of active oxygen species. Diabetes can be produced in animals by the drugs alloxan and streptozotocin; the mechanism of action of these two drugs is different, but both result in the production of active oxygen species. Scavengers of oxygen radicals are effective in preventing diabetes in these animal models. Not only are oxygen radicals involved in the cause of diabetes, they also appear to play a role in some of the complications seen in long-term treatment of diabetes. Changes in antioxidants in the diabetic state and their consequences are discussed."
***************************************************************************************************************
Bill's comments
****************************************************************************************************************
Here is work that suggests that whatever the mechanism, autoimmune or not, the actual destruction of the beta cells is
carried out by free radicals. Antioxidants can defeat free radicals. The result, no Type 1 diabetes. The same mechanism is in play with Type 2 diabetes as well as complications of diabetes.

That is why an alkaline diet and Ionized Water are such an effective combo in defeating diabetes and its complications.

Cancer Society Has $$ Ties to Cancer Producers

2010-09-02T10:44:00.000-07:00

Cancer Society Has Financial Ties to Mammography: "“Routine mammography delivers an unrecognized high dose of radiation, warn Samuel S. Epstein, M.D., chairman of the Cancer Prevention Coalition. and Rosalie Bertell, Ph.D. of the International Physicians for Humanitarian Medicine.

If a woman follows the current guidelines for premenopausal screening, over a 10 year period she would receive a total dosage of about 5 rads. This approximates the level of exposure to radiation of a Japanese woman one mile from the epicenter of atom bombs dropped on Hiroshima or Nagasaki.”"

Here is the beef: Five radiologists have served as presidents of the American Cancer Society (ACS). In its every move, the ACS promotes the interests of the major manufacturers of mammogram machines and films, including Siemens, DuPont, General Electric, Eastman Kodak, and Piker.

This bias hypes mammography, which Dr. Epstein and Rosalie Bertell, Ph.D. of the International Physicians for Humanitarian Medicine emphasize is an avoidable cause of breast cancer.

"The mammography industry conducts research for the ACS and its grantees, serves on its advisory boards, and donates considerable funds," they warn. "DuPont, a major producer of mammography machines, also is a substantial backer of the ACS Breast Health Awareness Program; sponsors television shows and other media productions touting ACS literature for hospitals, clinics, medical organization, and doctors; produces educational films; and aggressively lobbies Congress for legislation promoting the nationwide availability of mammography services."

ACS promotion continues to lure women of all ages into mammography centers, leading them to believe that mammography is their best hope against breast cancer. A leading Massachusetts newspaper featured a photograph of two women in their twenties in an ACS advertisement that promised early detection results in a cure "nearly 100 percent of the time."

An ACS communications director, questioned by journalist Kate Dempsey, admitted in an article published by the Massachusetts Women's Community's journal Cancer, "The ad isn't based on a study. When you make an advertisement, you just say what you can to get women in the door. You exaggerate a point...Mammography today is a lucrative [and] highly competitive business."

Not surprisingly, the prestigious Chronicle of Philanthropy, the leading charity watch dog, has warned that the ACS "is more interested in accumulating wealth than saving lives."

Screening mammography should be phased out in favor of annual clinical breast examination, (CBE), by a trained nurse and monthly breast self examination (BSE), also following training by a trained nurse. This is an effective, safe, and low-cost alternative, to diagnostic mammography, the Drs Epstein and Bartell advise.

"Such action is all the more critical and overdue in view of the still poorly recognized evidence that mammography does not lead to decreased breast cancer mortality," they say.

Drs. Epstein and Bertell envision nationwide networks of BSE and CBE clinics, staffed by trained nurses, saying, "These low-cost clinics would also empower women by providing them with scientific evidence on the risks of breast cancer, and also on its prevention."

In summary, ACS; heavily influenced by radiologists serving as President, Directors and advisors to ACS, promotes mammography,providing massive products to the industry, despite its lack of proof of its effectiveness and considerable danger to women.

The Industry then puts money into the pockets of the American Cancer Society. Case Closed!

I hope none of my regular readers are surprised by this posting. It only provides more proof to what we have alleged in the past. All of the major disease support associations are Big Pharma, Medical Mafia fronts. They are money grubbing, criminal enterprises preying on the sick and their families and supporters for money by promoting the food and pharmaceutical industries that are making Trillions off of us by making us sick and them plying us with expensive, ineffective, dangerous drugs.

Case in point, the Susan B. Kagan foundation (Go Pink, Fight Breast Cancer!)recently launched a joint promotion with Kentucky Fried Chicken (Pink buckets of chicken!) whose main product is a major producer of free radicals in the body which damage cells and contribute to cancer. The Foundation got $1 Million out of the scandalous deal.

The American Diabetes Association recently linked its own deal with the devil, signing a marketing agreement with Cadbury Schwepps, maker of sugary sodas and candies.

The ADA will allow cadbury to place the ADA's logo on its diet sodas, implying the
ADA's recommendation of these sodas to diabetics.

The idea that the ADA would encourage its hapless supporters to drink unhealthy, acidic, aspertame (a proven neurotoxin) containing soft drinks, proves the point that the ADA, like the other disease support groups, will throw their members under the bus in return for the Bucks!

White Flour and Diabetes

2010-09-02T07:40:00.000-07:00

White Flour Contains the same chemical, Alloxan, that scientists use to produce diabetes in lab animals.

To produce white flour, chlorine (the gas)is used to bleach wheat flour. In this process, a nasty by product, alloxan is created.

This is the same chemical that diabetes researchers use to induce diabetes in otherwise healthy lab animals!

Alloxan destroys beta cells in the pancreas, making it impossible to produce insulin!

Consuming white flour products, yes, I mean cookies, cakes, pies, bread etc. is a powerful way to become diabetic more quickly than ever when you add in the acid producing sugar these products contain.

Your Body's Cells Can Live Forever...If...

2010-08-22T09:59:00.000-07:00

Nobel Prize winner Dr. Alexis Carrel did an experiment [1912-1940] to keep cells from a chicken heart alive and reproducing new cells for 28 years!

A chicken's lifespan is far less than this. So why did these chicken cells live so well and so long? Dr Carrel did this by placing the cells in a saline solution that was the perfect temperature, pH, and nutrient/mineral balance. He replaced this solution daily (cleaning away the toxic [acidic] wastes). Eventually, after 28 years the purpose of the experiment was achieved. The cells did not die of aging they simply stopped the experiment and Dr. Carrel concluded the following;

"The cell is immortal. It is merely the fluid in which it floats which degenerates. Renew this fluid at intervals, give the cells what they require for nutrition and, as far as we know, the pulsation of life may go on forever."

What Happens to Alkaline Water in The Acid Stomach?

Digestive Problems and Ionized Water

"The stomach is readily upset both by diseases affecting the stomach and by other general
illnesses. In addition, any nervous tension or anxiety frequently causes gastric upset, vague
symptoms when This information is under some strain.
The important role of antioxidant water in our stomach is to neutralize the secretion and
strengthen it s functions. Usually, after consuming the antioxidant water for 1 to 3 minutes, the
gastric juice increase to 1½ times. For those suffering from hypochlorhydria or achlorhydria (
low in gastric juice ) the presence of antioxidant water will stimulate the stomach cells to secrete
more gastric juice. This in turn enhances digestion and absorption of minerals.
However, on the other hand, those with hyperchlorhydria ( high in gastric juice ), the antioxidant
water neutralizes the excessive gastric juice. Hence, it does not create any adverse reaction.
According to the medical lecturer from Maeba University, the pH of the gastric secretion will still
remain normal when antioxidant water is consumed. This proves that the ability of the
antioxidant water is able to neutralize as well as to stimulate the secretion."

Asthma Drugs, Advair, Symbicort, Safety Claims Questioned

2010-08-17T17:40:00.000-07:00

Asthma Drug's
Advair,Safety Claims Questioned: "In the current study, Dr. David M. Lang of the Cleveland Clinic Foundation in Ohio and fellow investigators looked at data on asthma hospitalizations in Philadelphia from 1995 to 1999 and prescription rates for long-acting beta agonists and other asthma drugs.

In 1997, guidelines were released that recommended adding long-acting beta agonists, such as salmeterol (Serevent) and formoterol (Foradil), to low-dose inhaled corticosteroids for patients whose asthma wasn't adequately controlled with the steroids.

Since then, however, several studies have linked long-acting beta agonists, LABA to increased risks of severe asthma attacks, asthma hospitalizations, and even death.

The drugs are likely harmful, agreed Dr. Shelley Salpeter of Stanford University in California. She pointed out that both long-acting and short-acting beta agonists can cause the user to develop tolerance to the drug, which leads to worse reactions to asthma triggers.

"It is clear" from her 2006 analysis of clinical trials, as well as other studies since then, that such drugs are linked with increases in asthma hospitalizations, life-threatening exacerbations, and even deaths from asthma, Dr. Salpeter continued.

The real debate, Drs. Salpeter and Cates commented, is not whether long-acting beta agonists are risky. Today's controversy revolves around whether combining them with inhaled corticosteroids eliminates their risk. Recent data suggest that the combination is still more dangerous than corticosteroids alone.

The study by Dr. Lang and his colleagues was funded by an unrestricted grant from GlaxoSmithKline, which manufactures formulations of salmeterol alone and combined with inhaled corticosteroids. The report states that the company was not involved in designing the study, interpreting the data, or writing the manuscript.
*****************************************
Bills Comments: Note also that the company's top selling drug is the asthma medication Advair, a combination of two other company products, Flovent a fast acting bronchodilator and Serevent a LABA.

Symbicort, another combination of a slow acting and fast acting agonist, is made by Astra Zenica and presumably since both drugs are in the same class, the above findings apply equally to both. Warning of Symbicort label: WARNING: Long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonists (LABA), such as formoterol, one of the active ingredients in SYMBICORT, increase the risk of asthma-related death. A placebo-controlled study with another LABA (salmeterol) showed an increase in asthma-related deaths in patients receiving salmeterol. This finding with salmeterol is considered a class effect of LABA, including formoterol. Available data from controlled clinical trials suggest that LABA increase the risk of asthma-related hospitalization in pediatric and adolescent patients

Doesn't The Stomach Acid Destroy Alkaline Water?

2010-08-01T21:01:00.000-07:00

We will let Sang Whang, holder of many degrees in science and engineering and a holder of many patents as well as the author of many books on alkalinity and the body, including, "Reverse Aging" answer that seeming paradox.

"What happens to the alkaline water once it reaches the stomach, which is highly acidic'" People who have some knowledge of the human body, including medical doctors, ask this question. Let me answer that question once and for all to erase any doubts about the health benefits of alkaline water.

In order to digest food and kill the kinds of bacteria and viruses that come with the food, the inside of our stomach is acidic. The stomach pH value is maintained at around 4. When we eat food and drink water, especially alkaline water, the pH value inside the stomach goes up. When this happens, there is a feedback mechanism in our stomach to detect this and commands the stomach wall to secrete more hydrochloric acid into the stomach to bring the pH value back to 4. So the stomach becomes acidic again. When we drink more alkaline water, more hydrochloric acid is secreted to maintain the stomach pH value. It seems like a losing battle.

However, when you understand how the stomach wall makes hydrochloric acid, your concerns will disappear. A pathologist friend of mine gave me the following explanation. There is no hydrochloric acid pouch in our body. If there were, it would burn a hole in our body. The cells in our stomach wall must produce it on an instantly-as-needed basis. The ingredients in the stomach cell that make hydrochloric acid (HCl) are carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and sodium chloride (NaCl) or potassium chloride (KCl).

NaCl + H2O + CO2 = HCl + NaHCO3, or
KCl + H2O + CO2 = HCl + KHCO3

As we can see, the byproduct of making hydrochloric acid is sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) or potassium bicarbonate (KHCO3), which goes into blood stream. These bicarbonates are the alkaline buffers that neutralize excess acids in the blood.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Bill's Comments:
Amazing, isn't it? The alkaline water stimulates the stomach to make more acid, to restore it to the proper Ph to compensate for the increase in alkalinity caused by the alkaline water. In so doing, a by product of the acid production in the stomach, where it is needed for proper digestion, is the production of sodium bicarbonate, the alkaline buffer that the body needs a store of to prevent or cure acidosis of the blood.

Pure, Distilled or Reverse Osmosis Water is Dangerous to Drink

2010-07-31T01:38:00.000-07:00

Dr. Zolton Rona, author of "The Joy of Health", states that "the longer one consumes distilled water, the more likely the development of mineral deficiencies and an acid state."

Dr. Paavo Airola, cancer expert and author of "How to Get Well" and "Cancer... Causes, Prevention and Healing" also reports that "long term consumption of distilled water eventually results in multiple mineral deficiencies."

Reverse Osmosis and distilled water were originally developed for industrial use, photographic processeing and printing, specifically. This water was never intended for drinking purposes. In fact, I can remember seeing bottles of distilled water in stores labled, Not for Drinking. It was supposed to go into your steam iron to prevent clogging by minerals.

Someone came up with the bright idea to sell this dangerous water as a Healthy, "Pure Water" and the scam was on.

The problems with Pure water which, incidentally, does not exist anywhere on earth, hmm, are many. It is acidic, adding to the chronic acisdosis many of us suffer from. Acidosis promotes the growth of pathogens, bacteria and viruses, as well as being the preferred environment for the growth of cancer cells.

Free radicals, products of certain chemical reactions, are also facilitated by an acidic environment, producing dangerous oxidative damage to the body's cells.

Pure water also leaches minerals from the body, contributing to the suppression of enzyme formation which negatively impacts every function of the body.

There is a direct correlation between the consumption of soft water (distilled water is extremely soft) and the incidence of cardiovascular disease.

In contrast, we find that the longest lived people in the world, in Japan, Russia, South America, etc have in common, they share heavily mineralized, not mineral-free water.

Oh, and dont fall for the TDS, Total Disolved Solids meter readings. They are really measuring the abcense calcium and magnesium, two of the most vital minerals your body needs.

Dr Zona admits that reverse osmosis water is slightly less harmful as it is neutral, IF minerals are added to it.

However, "The ideal water for the human body should be slightly alkaline and this requires the presence of minerals like calcium and magnesium."

Healthwise, there is no comparison between distilled and RO water, which at best are neutral and Ionized alkaline water. No hospital in the world uses distilled or even RO water to prevent amputations, cure MSRA and other antibiotic resistant infections, or to treat heart disease, cancer diabetes, etc.

Drugs for Constipation?

2010-06-23T03:50:00.000-07:00

Constipation is one of the most frequent causes for people to visit their doctors. It is estimated that 1 in 3 Americans suffer from constipation at one time or another.

Constipation is defined as 3 or fewer bowel movements per week.

As usual, there are prescription drugs available to treat this constipation, or, in Med speak, Chronic Idiopathic Constipation. Now, doesn't that sound more like a serious illness that requires serious medicine?

One of these medicines, Zelnorm, has these friendly reminders included in the dosage instructions:

"You should not use this medication if you are allergic to tegaserod, or if you have a history of stroke or heart attack, high blood pressure, uncontrolled angina, high cholesterol or triglycerides, diabetes, depression, or anxiety.
You also should not use Zelnorm if you smoke, if you are older than 55 years, if you are overweight, or if you have a history of suicidal thoughts or actions."

Other than that, it was perfectly safe. However, it was pulled from the market in 2007 because of the frequency of heart attacks among its users!

Another drug, Amitiza, is the current Big Pharma darling and why not, a monthly prescription is $358 at my local pharmacy!

Constipation is not caused by a lack of Amatiza, Dulcolax or any other "Medicine."

It is caused by the lack of a simple, low cost nutrient from our diet.

Heart-Way Robbery! Up to 50% of Invasive Heart Procedures Done for Greed and Not Need!

2010-06-11T10:54:00.000-07:00

Stents are major money-makers for hospitals.In the past fiscal year, stents brought in $222 million in business to Maryland hospitals alone, roughly $10,000 or more per procedure, according to numbers cited by a probe carried out by the Baltimore Sun.

Apparently there is a significant of unnesesary invasive heart procedures being carried out by cardiologists with loose to non-existant oversight by hospitals.

The Midei probe is just the latest in a series of cases investigating cardiologists found to be performing more procedures than medically warranted. Last year, Louisiana cardiologist Dr Mehmod Patel was given a 10-year prison sentence after being convicted on 51 counts of billing private and government health insurers for unnecessary medical procedures, as reported by heartwire . He is appealing his sentence.

In perhaps the most celebrated cardiology case in recent memory, Drs Chae Moon and Fidel Realyvasquez of Redding Medical Center, CA were convicted for as many as 50% of the procedures conducted by the two physicians (diagnostic catheterization, angioplasty, and CABG procedures) that may not have been medically necessary. The case against the physicians was ultimately settled out of court for over $50 million.

Sept. 30, 2009 - Women who put on weight as they approach middle-age could reduce their chances of enjoying a healthy old age by up to 80%, says new research in the British Medial Journal. The study suggests that women who have a high body mass index in middle age are significantly more likely to suffer from major chronic diseases such as cancer and coronary heart disease and poor quality of life.

Dr Oscar Franco, Assistant Clinical Professor of Public Health at the University of Warwick Medical School collaborated on the paper with researchers from Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts.

The research team found that for every 2lbs gained in weight since the age of 18, the odds of healthy survival into old age decreased by 5%. Therefore, a 40lb gain results in a 100% decrease in the chance of a healthy survival into old age!

They also found that women who were overweight at the age of 18 and continued to gain weight as they grew older were most at risk of developing a major chronic disease. The more weight gained, the greater the odds of developing a chronic disease compared to women of normal weight.

The research team used the Nurses' Health Study, which has gathered data from more than 120,000 female registered nurses living in 11 US states since 1976. Follow-up questionnaires have been sent out every two years to update information on disease incidence and lifestyle factors.

Dr Franco said those study participants who had reached the age of 70 and were free of major chronic disease, had no major impairment of cognitive function and no major limitation of physical function were considered as examples of 'successful aging'.

"In summary,� he said, �this study provides new evidence that obesity at mid-life is a strong risk factor predicting a worse probability of successful survival among older women. In addition, our data suggest that maintenance of healthy weight throughout adulthood may be vital to optimal overall health at older ages.

�Given that more and more people are surviving to older ages and, at the same time, gaining weight, our results may be particularly important with respect to clinical or public health interventions."

These findings no doubt equally apply to men although the fact remains that there are probably 40% more obese women then there are men, hence the direction of this article.

Obesity is easily overcome by both sexes with knowledge. The cause of our obesity epidemic is the Standard American Diet (SAD).

It contains far to many acid producing foods like sugar, dairy, grains and excessive protein and not enough water, plain water, not iced tea or coke.

Historically, man's diet consisted of vegetables, fruits and some protein (a 200 lb man only needs 1/4 pound per day of protein). His consumption of sugar averaged 4 lbs per year.

His genes were set to deal with the foods that he ate in the beginning and in the quantities likely to be encountered in daily life.

Today, grains, which as I mentioned were not part of man's original diet, make up the bulk of our diet, followed closely by sugar. Sugar consumption is now approaching 1/2 lb per day per person. Some teenagers get 40% or more of their daily calories from sugar, mostly from the 700 cans of soda they consume on average!

This avalanche of foods that we were never meant to consume disrupts our body's metabolism. Insulin constantly floods our system, attempting to deal with the onslaught of carbohydrates, the excess of which is stored as fat.

The fact that very few of us replaces the 2.5 Qts of water we lose every 24 hours by respiration, elimination and perspiration, means that we are also chronically dehydrated which overwhelms the body's mandated acid/alkaline balance. This situation, called acidosis is potentially deadly. One of the body's defense mechanisms is to isolate excess acid by entombing it in unsightly blobs of fat, usually on the thighs, buttocks and abdomen.

Just as obesity and its associated diseases are caused by a toxic diet, so can they be cured with adequate nutrition.

ADHD is a sophisticated, diabolical marketing ploy by the Bankers and Backers of Big Pharma! Here is what a leading pediatric neurologist and fellow of the American Association of Neurologists, Dr Fred Baughman has to say:

Dr. Baughman shares startling facts such as:
What group wants four out of every ten children diagnosed as ADHD
How brain "disorders" lack an objective standard
Why an ADHD-labeled child will have trouble getting healthcare coverage, getting a job, or getting into the military
How diseases are created by a "show of hands"
How parents, teachers and school districts are getting paid for ADHD diagnoses
How many psychiatric experts are owned by the pharmaceutical industry
The law the Bush Administration put into action that will REQUIRE your child to be screened for ADHD
Adult ADHD "recruiting" centers where 80 percent are diagnosed as ADHD
How the FDA lobbied another country to keep dangerous ADHD drugs on the market after fatalities occured
Why your grandparents were never diagnosed with ADHD
What percentage of kids walk out of their first psychiatric visit with an ADHD diagnosis
How taxpayers foot the bill for every ADHD diagnosis
You'll want to pass this information on to everyone you know with children or grandchildren, so they don't become just another vehicle of profit for the drug industry. The risks are just too great, and too many parents and children have suffered already.

Alkalinity And Cancer

2010-05-11T15:26:00.000-07:00

Acidosis, a condition of chronic over acidity in the blood stream is a product of the heavily acid producing Standard American Diet.

Among other horrors, this diet is thought to be one of the most common causes of cancer. This is how it works and what you can do about it.

In the high acid, low oxygen environment produced in our bodies by the Standard American Diet. of a low Ph value in the blood, certain enzymes in the mitochondria of the cells, which are the furnaces where oxygen is burned and concerted to energy for the cell break down or become denatured. This is enough to kill most cells, but certain cells for reasons that are not clear, revert to a primitive nutritional program to sustain themselves. They produce energy by converting glucose to energy via fermentation.

One of the by products of fermentation is lactic acid. This acid adds to the current acid load and further lowers the cell pH and destroys the ability of DNA and RNA to control cell division and the cells begin to multiply unchecked. In other words, become cancerous. The acid simultaneously causes intense local pain.

Normally, your cells are protected by your immune system; a well functioning immune system is the best defense against the formation of cancer cells. It detects the newly minted cancer cells and destroys them immediately.

However, acidosis impacts the immune system also, weakening it and cancer cells can grow and thrive.

Note that in areas of the world where the water is hexagonally structured and highly alkaline; the Caucus mountains in Russia, the Hunza area of Pakistan, Lourdes, France, there is virtually no cancer among the local people.

In 1933, Dr Otto Warburg was awarded the Nobel Prize for demonstrating that cancer cells died when the Ph of the blood was raised, made more alkaline, reversing the acidic nature of the blood.

Vegetables and fruit, unlike most other foods; meat, dairy, grains, etc. tend to make the body more alkaline as well. Most other foods, meat, dairy, grains, processed foods, etc tend to increase the acidity of the body.

The question then, is there a way you can fight and even halt cancer by making your body more alkaline?

Yes, there is!

Listen to the story of how Jimmy, a 56 year old man diagnosed with Stage 4 Prostate cancer, was given 3 weeks to live, after his cancer specialist had exhausted his arsenal of radiation and chemotherapy, was cured in a matter of weeks, by an Alkaline Protocol, based on water and an alkaline diet.

Anti Aging Effects of Antioxidants

2010-04-30T04:01:00.000-07:00

Researchers have found a strong link between longevity and antioxidants.

In aging studies, researchers discovered mammals that produce the highest levels of antioxidants have the longest lifespans. And when they genetically engineered fruit flies to have double their normal amount of antioxidants, the fruit flies lived twice as long.

One way to measure the antioxidant power of a liquid is called its ORP value, its Oxidation Reduction Potential. (Another expression of antioxidant capability is called its Redux potential. We will use ORP in this article.)

ORP values are expressed in millivolts, from high to low with the lower readings indicating the more powerful antioxidant. In fact, a substance with a high ORP is an oxidant, a danger to your body which will cause disease and decrease your lifespan. Actually, it is the oxidation damage done to the body by free radicals, damaged atoms, that results in death from atomic radiation exposure.

One of the highest ORP substances you can put in your body is soda. Soda generally has ORP values in the 2-400 Millivolt range.

A good antioxidant like vitamin C, on the other hand has an ORP of around -150 Millivolts.

Antioxidants come from two sources. Your body makes its own antioxidants and you get them from your diet, mainly from fruits and vegetables.

But your body's production of antioxidants drop off as you age, leading to a build-up of free radicals which oxidize your cells and cause aging, just the same way they turn an apple slice brown when exposed to the oxidative forces of air.

And here’s something else: Levels of antioxidants vary by as much as 50% depending on the person. That may be why some people age quickly and why others live to a ripe old age without any problems.

That is because the damage done by free radicals, to the DNA of cells, to the collagen of the skin, to the arteries, to the nerves, etc. etc. is mitigated.

How can you make sure you are protected from free radical damage?

Fried Chicken Cures Cancer!

2010-04-21T20:38:00.000-07:00

I feel sick! This is NOT a JOKE. The Susan G Komen Foundation for the Cure of Cancer has just formed a joint (money making!) venture to push Kentucky Fried Chicken as a Cure for Cancer!

This is the ultimate proof to my heretofore controversial stance that disease support groups are just that, groups that support a given disease! Let's face it, what would happen to the Amercan Diabetes Association if diabetes was cured? What about the American Heart Association if heart disease was cured?

These Feel Good, Pimp organizations are in cahoots with Big Pharma and the Medical Maffia. They are controlled by them, via financial support and linked Board Memberships.

They suck millions of dollars each year from the trusting victims of the "supported" disease, their families and friends. They use this money to sustain themselves and to act as "beards" for Big Pharma and the Medical Maffia.

The contributions they make to "medical research" support the same conventional wisdom that produces dangerous, expensive drugs that Never Cure the target disease! Did you ever notice that? "See Water Cures, Drugs Kill)

Oh, the medical truth about cancer and fried chicken?

Where do I start?

Fried chicken is cooked in heated vegetable oil, which produces tons of artery and cell damaging free radicals. These are "vampire" molecules that damage and destroy healthy cells all over the body. These are the Oxidants that Antioxidants fight.

Meats and carbohydrates (the chicken and flour) also produce acid residue in the body, causing over acidity.

When over acidic blood and/or free radicals attack arteries, the body sends in "Bad" or LDL cholesterol which forms a "bandage" over the damaged area. (Yes, Bad cholesterol can save your life!)The more damage, the more cholesterol deposited until the cholesterol deposits (plaque)get so thick that they constrict the lumen or diameter of the blood vessel raising the pressure needed to force the blood through the constriction (called high blood pressure.)

The danger is that with continued consumption of fried foods, the thickened, acidi blood will generate so much plaque that it will totally block the artery or, worst, fracture and send a clot to large in one of the smaller arteries, causing an infarction or heart attack.

While the heart attack scenario is playing out, stage left, cancer is preparing to make a dramatic entrance.

The combination of acidic blood and free radicals is a perfect 1/2 punch leading to cancer!

Either one, but especially free radicals can attack the DNA of cells, causing them to reproduce damaged offspring cells. Under the right circumstances, such as low blood PH, (too much acid in the blood) these damaged cells grow uncontrollably (cancer!)

Interestingly, neither Susan G Komen nor their cohorts in Big Pharma or the Medical Maffia has seen fit to educate the medical profession or the public of the Nobel Prize winning work of Dr Otto Warburg in 1933. What did he win the Prize for? Simply for proving that cancers cells die or go into remission when the PH of the blood goes from acid to normal!!!

And how is the tremendous feat of turning the blood from acid to normal (slightly alkaline) accomplished? What Miracle Drugs or Expensive sophisticated medical technology is required?

By improving your diet! Listen to a fascinating interview I did with Jimmy. Jimmy was given 3 weeks to live by his doctors. They had done everything to save him, chemo radiation, etc. but his Stage 4 Prostate cancer was winning the battle and was killing him. Until... http://I-Beat-Cancer.com

Co-Founder of National Cancer Institute Says Don't Trust Big Pharma's "Scientific Proof."

2010-03-24T20:13:00.000-07:00

Dr. Dean Burk, co-founder of the National Cancer Institute said, “Drugs are man’s way to try to bludgeon the body into a cure profitably. If there’s enough money to be made on it, scientific research could be designed to prove that daylight doesn’t exist.”***********************************************************************************
This is the canard that the Medical Mafia and Big Pharma like to hurl at alternative treatments, "You do not have a peer-reviewed, double blind, placebo controlled study."

These are the same studies that Dr Burk says can be designed or manipulated or distorted to support anything the people paying for or conducting the study want it to prove. These are the same studies that have given us the 4th leading cause of death in this country, correctly prescribed prescription drugs!

These drugs, besides being dangerous, are very profitable to drug companies, generating Billions of dollars in profit each and every year. They may ameliorate symptoms but never cure the underlying disease and the "best" of these require more drugs to try to deal with their side effects.

So do not drink the Kool-Aid when it comes to evaluating alternative therapies. Keep an open mind. Investigate and think for yourself. Take whatever negatives you get from Big Pharma or MM with a big grain of sea salt!

What if I told you that a doctor had discovered that most chronic, degenerative diseases, such as asthma, diabetes, hypertention, cancer could be cured by water?

Dentist Warning of Fluoride Dangers!

2010-03-22T09:03:00.000-07:00

All most of us need to know about the dangers of fluoride is that it was put into the drinking water in the concetration camps of WW-2 by the Nazis!

But for those who need more convinving, here is a dentist warning about the dangers of fluoride, including the danger of its rotting your teeth!

Fluoride is a waste material from the production of aluminum. When a certain Very wealthy aluminum magnate was faced with the cost of disposing of thousands of tons of the poison, he sold it as a pesticide, which it still is today, killing, roaches, ants, mice and rats.

Faced with an even greater pile of the dangerous waste a few years later, the magnate came up with a scheme and enlisted the aid of his Congressman to sell the idea that fluoride would stop tooth decay, especially among young children and should be put in every municipal water supply, which it was.

Dr Osmunson, the dentist explains that fluoride is actually very dangerous and causes tooth destruction, especially among young children!
Start a petition going in your area, send your neighbors to this blog, get a movement going to demand fluoride be taken out of your local water supply!

UCLA Study Reveals Amazing Benefits of Grape Seed Extract!

2010-03-21T10:25:00.000-07:00

UC Davis study shows grape seed extract may be effective in reducing blood pressure

Promising results prompt second human clinical study Grape seed extract lowered the blood pressure of patients who participated in a UC Davis study of the benefits of the supplement on people with high blood pressure.

Conducted by UC Davis cardiovascular researchers, the study was the first human clinical trial to assess the effect of grape seed extract on people with metabolic syndrome, a combination of risk factors that increase the risk for heart disease, including high blood pressure, excess abdominal body weight, high blood cholesterol fats and high blood sugar. The researchers will present the results at the American Chemical Society Meeting and Exposition on March 26 in Atlanta, and at the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology's 2006 meeting in San Francisco April 2.

It is estimated that 40 percent of American adults, or 50 million people, have metabolic syndrome.

The one-month study involved 24 male and female patients diagnosed with metabolic syndrome. The patients were divided into three groups of eight. The first group received a placebo, while the second and third groups received 150 milligrams and 300 milligrams, respectively, of a new grape seed extract. All participants' blood pressure was automatically measured and recorded for 12 hours after ingestion.

"Participants in the two groups receiving grape seed extract experienced an equal degree of reduced blood pressure. The average drop in systolic pressure was 12 millimeters. The average drop in diastolic pressure was 8 millimeters," said the study's lead researcher, C. Tissa Kappagoda, professor of cardiovascular medicine and director of the Preventive Cardiology Program at UC Davis.

Kappagoda adds that the group taking 300 milligrams of grape seed extract also had reduced serum oxidized LDL cholesterol levels.

"Generally, the higher their initial oxidized LDL level was, the greater the drop by the end of the study," he said. The extract has received the GRAS (generally recognized as safe) certification from the FDA and has no known side effects.

_________________________________________________________________________________
Wow! These reductions of blood pressure were essentially equal to the effect of many dangerous prescription drugs.

According to the research done by Dr Joe Mercola, along with their benefits for blood pressure and cholesterol, grape seeds are also known to be a powerful antioxidant.

Antioxidant protection helps protect your body from premature aging, disease and decay. Antioxidants are needed to neutralize free radicals, which play a major role in the development of degenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, strokes and aging.

The antioxidant capacity of grape seed extract comes from proanthocyanidins. Scientific studies have shown that the antioxidant power of proanthocyanidins is 20 times stronger than vitamin C and 50 times stronger than vitamin E.

Another incredible benefit of grape seeds are their cancer fighting ability.
Chemicals found in grape seeds inhibited the growth of colorectal tumors in both cell cultures and in mice.

Grape seed extract has already been demonstrated to have anti-cancer effects on other tumor types, as well. The extract can "freeze" cancer cells, preventing them from growing and in some cases, causes the cancer cells to self destruct.

Not all grape seed extract is equal. Your best bet is to find a grape seed extract combined with other natural antioxidants. synergy in these combinations produces a greater antioxidant effect than the individual components alone.

Dangers of Distilled and Reverse Osmosis Water!

2010-03-19T06:29:00.000-07:00

Early Death Comes From Drinking Distilled Water
by Zoltan P. Rona MD MSc

During nearly 19 years of clinical practice I have had the opportunity to observe the health effects of drinking different types of water. Most of you would agree that drinking unfiltered tap water could be hazardous to your health because of things like parasites, chlorine, fluoride and dioxins.

Many health fanatics, however, are often surprised to hear me say that drinking distilled water on a regular, daily basis is potentially dangerous.

Paavo Airola wrote about the dangers of distilled water in the 1970's when it first became a fad with the health food crowd.

Distillation is the process in which water is boiled, evaporated and the vapor condensed. Distilled water is free of dissolved minerals and, because of this, has the special property of being able to actively absorb toxic substances from the body and eliminate them.

Studies validate the benefits of drinking distilled water when one is seeking to cleanse or detoxify the system for short periods of time (a few weeks at a time).

Fasting using distilled water can be dangerous because of the rapid loss of electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride) and trace minerals like magnesium, deficiencies of which can cause heart beat irregularities and high blood pressure. Cooking foods in distilled water pulls the minerals out of them and lowers their nutrient value.

Distilled water is an active absorber and when it comes into contact with air, it absorbs carbon dioxide, making it acidic. The more distilled water a person drinks, the higher the body acidity becomes.

According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, "Distilled water, being essentially mineral-free, is very aggressive, in that it tends to dissolve substances with which it is in contact.

Notably, carbon dioxide from the air is rapidly absorbed, making the water acidic and even more aggressive. Many metals are dissolved by distilled water."

The most toxic commercial beverages that people consume (i.e. cola beverages and other soft drinks) are made from distilled water. Studies have consistently shown that heavy consumers of soft drinks (with or without sugar) spill huge amounts of calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals into the urine.

The more mineral loss, the greater the risk for osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, hypothyroidism, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure and a long list of degenerative diseases generally associated with premature aging.

A growing number of health care practitioners and scientists from around the world have been advocating the theory that aging and disease is the direct result of the accumulation of acid waste products in the body.

There is a great deal of scientific documentation that supports such a theory. A poor diet may be partially to blame for the waste accumulation. Meats, sugar, white flour products, fried foods, soft drinks, processed foods, alcohol, dairy products and other junk foods cause the body to become more acidic. Stress, whether mental or physical can lead to acid deposits in the body.

There is a correlation between the consumption of soft water (distilled water is extremely soft) and the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Cells, tissues and organs do not like to be dipped in acid and will do anything to buffer this acidity including the removal of minerals from the skeleton and the manufacture of bicarbonate in the blood.

The longer one drinks distilled water, the more likely the development of mineral deficiencies and an acid state. I have done well over 3000 mineral evaluations using a combination of blood, urine and hair tests in my practice. Almost without exception, people who consume distilled water exclusively, eventually develop multiple mineral deficiencies.

Those who supplement their distilled water intake with trace minerals are not as deficient but still not as adequately nourished in minerals as their non-distilled water drinking counterparts even after several years of mineral supplementation.

The ideal water for the human body should be alkaline and this requires the presence of minerals like calcium and magnesium.

Distilled water tends to be acidic and can only be recommended as a way of drawing poisons out of the body. Once this is accomplished, the continued drinking of distilled water is a bad idea.

... Disease and early death is more likely to be seen with the long term drinking of distilled water. Avoid it except in special circumstances.What Chemicals do Reverse Osmosis and Distillation Remove/Reduce?

Reverse osmosis will generally remove any molecular compounds smaller in size than water molecules. Such compounds include salt, manganese, iron, fluoride, lead, and calcium (Binnie et al, 2002). Reverse osmosis is extremely efficient at stripping minerals from water, and it is highly valued as a water purification process in the printing industry, in which mineral-free water must be used.

Although reverse osmosis supplies useful, mineral-free water for printing purposes, it does not provide the healthiest drinking water. Reverse osmosis will remove several mineral and chemical materials from water, including salt, fluoride, lead, manganese, iron, and calcium. Reverse osmosis, because it removes minerals according to physical size, is non-selective in its removal of dangerous and beneficial minerals.

Clearly, mineral contaminants like salt, fluoride, and lead should be removed from drinking water, but minerals like iron and manganese, because they are essential to natural body processes and important components of drinking water, should be left in that water. Iron builds and maintains healthy red blood cells while manganese helps in regulating protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism. Manganese, like calcium, is also an essential component in the building of bones and the clotting of blood. Though many foods contain these minerals, drinking water can and should be a major source for their intake.

Distillation removes chemicals similar to those removed by reverse osmosis, but in a different manner. Distillation, through its water evaporation process, will remove any chemicals or organic materials with higher boiling points than water. Such chemicals and organic materials with higher boiling points include bacteria, minerals, trace amounts of metals, many volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), and nitrate (Binnie et al, 2002). Clearly, distillation is valuable in its removal of the potentially deadly VOCs and nitrate. It strips water of nearly all of its natural minerals, though. Many of the minerals the distillation process removes are vital to the body’s natural processes. The distillation process is not selective in its removal of minerals, and it strips water of both dangerous and valuable mineral compounds.

US Govt Kidnaps, Jails Man For Curing Cancer!

2010-03-13T19:38:00.000-08:00

Jimmy Keller had cured his own cancer with natural therapies, which spurred him into a career in natural medicine. Since treating cancer without patent drugs is illegal in the U.S.he opened up a practice in Mexico. Somehow, the success of his little Mexican clinic caught the eye of American health authorities who orchestrated a blatantly illegal “extradition.”

In March 1991, Mexican police officers kidnapped Keller at gunpoint—without a warrant—and delivered him to U.S. Justice Department bounty hunters, who
drove him across the border and into the arms of the FBI. Keller was charged with wire fraud—as he’d held phone conversations with prospective U.S. clients—
and received a two-year prison sentence.

Harvard Researcher Pressured by Glaxo-Smith Kline to Withold Research Report!

2010-03-02T16:07:00.000-08:00

Like a story pulled straight from the pages of an undercover-detective novel, the New York Times yesterday reported on the details of a private meeting that took place between Dr Nissen and GlaxoSmithKline executives just before the release of a Meta Study of the safety of its premier drug, Avandia.

Concerns about the cardiovascular safety profile of rosiglitazone (Avandia) gained widespread attention with the publication of the 2007 meta-analysis by Dr Steven Nissen and Kathy Wolski (Cleveland Clinic, OH). In that analysis of 42 trials, the use of rosiglitazone was associated with a 43% increased risk of MI and a borderline but statistically insignificant 64% increase in risk of cardiovascular death. (Note, other sources claim that over 900 diabetics Avandia patients died in the 4th Quarter of 2009 of heart attacks!)

Meeting in 2007, just a week before his meta-analysis was to be published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), Dr David Nathan (Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, secretly recorded the meeting out of fears he would face pressure from the company. In the taped conversation, Nissen, who shared the recording with the Times, said GlaxoSmithKline wanted him not to publish his study and wait for the results of the Rosiglitazone Evaluated for Cardiac Outcomes and Regulation of Glycemia in Diabetes (RECORD) trial instead.

According to the Times article, Dr Ronald Krall, the company's chief medical officer, almost predicts the final results of that study, even though the results should not have been known at the time. At one point, he asks Nissen what he would do if, hypothetically, RECORD showed a hazard ratio of 1.12, which was very close to the 1.11 hazard ratio for hospitalizations or death from cardiovascular causes that RECORD did show.

Krall denies knowing the results of RECORD, saying he did not learn of them until later.

Equally strange, the meeting played out with GlaxoSmithKline having inappropriately seen the full results of Nissen's yet-unpublished meta-analysis, although neither party discussed the results. As reported previously, Dr Steven Haffner (University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio), a peer reviewer for the NEJM meta-analysis,leaked the paper to the company weeks ahead of publication.

The NYT article also notes that in the Senate report, GlaxoSmithKline is taken to task by Congress for threatening researchers critical of the drug's safety profile. For example, the company complained to the supervisors of Dr John Buse (University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill), a researcher who also gave presentations warning of rosiglitazone's risks.

GSK's reaction to the lasted study linking Avandia with death and heart trouble was to issue a Press Release saying that the study's findings were unscientific. They suggested a conclusive study, a huge, randomized study be undertaken to prove the drugs safety. However, it would not be concluded until 2020, which would give them time to pull Billions and Billions of additional profits from the suspect drug and perhaps kill thousands and thousands more.

Ayurveda Relies Heavily on Herbs

2010-02-16T21:28:00.000-08:00

According to World Health Organization report, over 80% of the world population relies on plant-based traditional medicine for their primary healthcare needs.

In Ayurveda, the distinction between food and medicine is not as clear as in Western medicine. Food and diet are important components of Ayurvedic practice, and so there is a heavy reliance on treatments based on herbs and plants, oils (such as sesame oil), common spices (such as turmeric), and other naturally occurring substances.

Currently, some 5,000 products are included in the "pharmacy" of Ayurvedic treatments. Historically, plant compounds have been grouped into categories according to their effects. For example, some compounds are thought to heal, promote vitality, or relieve pain. The compounds are described in many texts prepared through national medical agencies in India. The following are examples of commonly used herbs:

*

The spice turmeric has been used for various diseases and conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, and wound healing.
*

An extract from the resin from a tropical shrub (Commiphora mukul, or guggul) has been used for a variety of illnesses. In recent years, there has been research interest in its use to lower cholesterol.
*

The essential oil extracted from Holy Basil is used as counteract depression and mental stress.

Harvard Study Links Magnesium Rich Foods and Decreased Diabetic Risk

A December 2003 study in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, also performed by Harvard scientists, speculated that “higher dietary magnesium intake may reduce the risk of developing type II diabetes” because women with higher magnesium consumption tended to have greater insulin sensitivity. Decreased insulin sensitivity, also known as insulin fasting, is the immediate cause of type II diabetes.

“The primary concern here is not which group is affected the most,” Hu said. “Whether you are overweight or obese or not, you need enough magnesium.”

But while magnesium-rich foods have had a positive effect in preventing diabetes, the studies found that multivitamins and other magnesium supplements have not had a similar effect.

“The NHS study doesn’t show any supplemental effect of magnesium, only of magnesium-rich foods,” said Liu, who also contributed to the NHS study. “This suggests that there may be something else in those foods that works with magnesium to reduce diabetes risk. For now, I can only recommend foods that are rich in magnesium.”

Those foods include “whole grains, nuts, and green leafy vegetables,” according to the NHS study.

Bad Health is the Result of Overacidity

2010-02-15T06:33:00.000-08:00

According to research published in The Journal of Longevity, declining health is the result of acid overload. This condition is caused by a diet lacking in vegetables and whole foods, which causes your tissues and organs to become acidic. When this happens you can’t properly absorb key nutrients and vitamins and you’re open to all sorts of health disasters.

Acid overload can result in decreased circulation… heart problems… loss of libido… irregular bowels… painful muscles and joints… respiratory problems… and possible abnormal cell growth.

Is an acid overload behind YOUR symptoms? Simply answer these questions:

* Do you suffer from high blood pressure, a failing heart or other heart problems?
* Do your joints feel stiff, inflamed and painful or do you suffer from bone loss?
* Has a doctor told you that your blood sugar levels are too high or too low?
* Are you finding it more difficult to get a good night’s sleep?
* Do you suffer from constant fatigue or energy crashes after meals?
* Do you frequently endure cramping, constipation, heartburn or other digestive problems?
* Do you sometimes feel depressed, negative and cranky?
* Have you noticed that your ability to solve problems or to remember details is lacking?
* Do you sometimes suffer from shortness of breath or other lung problems?
* Do you experience pain, numbness or tingling in your hands, legs or feet?
* Is your skin or hair aging more rapidly than they should?
* Do you notice that your eyesight or hearing is fading at an alarming rate?
* Do you suffer from low sexual desire or performance problems?
* Do you contract infections more often with each passing year?

If you answered “YES” to one or more of these questions, there’s a good chance that you may be suffering from acid/alkaline imbalance.

Omega 3 Oils Eliminated From Processed Foods

2010-02-06T16:23:00.000-08:00

Oils rich in Omega-3 have been altered into trans-fats or removed altogether from foods to prevent spoilage and extend shelf life.

These practices took root many decades ago all in the name of profits for the food giants. And an unsuspecting public started down the road to nutritional deficiency with its resulting cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, even depression without even knowing it.

So it is, the food industry consistently puts profits ahead of healthy nutrition.

To get healthy doses of Omega 3 oil and protect your cardiovascular system, eat oily fish, sardines especially since they are near the bottom of the food chain and have not ingested larger, mercury filled fish.

Other fish heavy in Omega-3, in relative order of safety would be mackerel, which is safer than, salmon, then tuna.

If you prefer, you can take cod liver oil which is also high in Omega-3 as well as vitamin D and A.

For the vegetarians, flax seed oil and walnut oil are great sources of Omega-3 oil.

Stay out of the center of the supermarket, that is where the processed foods ("near" foods) predominate.

The periphery of the store is where the "unadvertised" foods, such as produce, (when have you seen an ad for cabbage?) meats and grains are found.

Fast Food Will Kill You!

2010-02-03T21:18:00.000-08:00

A small McDonald’s meal that topped out at 900 calories was studied for its oxidation potential. The findings were not encouraging for fans of fast food.

“We showed that a small McDonald’s meal resulted in inflammation and oxidative stress at a cellular, molecular level,” says Dr. Dandona. The markers Dr. Dandona and his team used to establish the presence of inflammation and oxidative stress are the same ones the body produces when it is seriously hurt. “In the cells, we look at nuclear factor kB (NF-kappa B), which is the orchestrator of inflammation. When we get infections, it is NF-kappa B that gets stimulated,” he explains. “We were shocked to find that what infections do, food does, too.” Disturbingly, the post-meal inflammatory reaction did not resolve quickly — study subjects still showed signs of inflammation five hours after eating.

Dr. Dandona’s research also found that people with obesity who already had a basic level of inflammation and oxidative stress had a worse reaction than people of normal weight when challenged with a fast-food meal. “Sure enough, they start from higher levels of inflammation, they achieve a much higher level, and the inflammation is much more prolonged.” The oxidative and inflammatory stress observed with meals probably contributes to atherosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke.

There you have it. McDonald's meals and similar processed, chemical filled fast food fare can kill you! Oxidative stress from the free radicals produced by the metabolism of this faux food attacks the body's cell walls, cell proteins and DNA, leading to everything from artherosclerosis to cancer to Alzheimers disease.

The news is doubly bad for fat people. You were Warned!

Diabetics, Vegetarians in Danger of Blindness, Nerve Damage From Medicine and Diet

2010-02-03T11:05:00.000-08:00

Vitamin B12 is fittingly known as the energy vitamin, and your body requires it for a number of vital functions. Among them: energy production, blood formation, DNA synthesis, and myelin formation. Myelin is insulation that protects your nerve endings and allows them to communicate with one another.

About 30% of People on Metformin exhibit a deficiency of B12, as Metformin interferes with the body's ability to extract the vitamin from food in the lower intestine.

Additionally, those who take antacid medication for acid reflux, heart burn, etc. also suffer B12 deficiency because of insufficient production of stomach acid, which is needed to break food down to release B12.

Vegetarians too are chronically B12 deficient because vegetables do not contain enough B12, compared to animal products.

Blindness, peripheral neuropathy, heart and mental problems have been linked to B12 deficiency.

Also, as you age, your digestive tract releases less hypocloric acid which means less efficient digestion and subsequent retrieval of B12 and other nutrients from food.

Distilled Water? Death Water!

2010-01-20T11:21:00.000-08:00

Early Death Comes From Drinking Distilled Water by Dr Zoltan P. Rona

During nearly 19 years of clinical practice I have had the opportunity to observe the health effects of drinking different types of water. Most of you would agree that drinking unfiltered tap water could be hazardous to your health because of things like parasites, chlorine, fluoride and dioxins.

Many health fanatics, however, are often surprised to hear me say that drinking distilled water on a regular, daily basis is potentially dangerous.

Paavo Airola wrote about the dangers of distilled water in the 1970's when it first became a fad with the health food crowd.

Distillation is the process in which water is boiled, evaporated and the vapor condensed. Distilled water is free of dissolved minerals and, because of this, has the special property of being able to actively absorb toxic substances from the body and eliminate them.

Studies validate the benefits of drinking distilled water when one is seeking to cleanse or detoxify the system for short periods of time (a few weeks at a time).

Fasting using distilled water can be dangerous because of the rapid loss of electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride) and trace minerals like magnesium, deficiencies of which can cause heart beat irregularities and high blood pressure. Cooking foods in distilled water pulls the minerals out of them and lowers their nutrient value.

Distilled water is an active absorber and when it comes into contact with air, it absorbs carbon dioxide, making it acidic. The more distilled water a person drinks, the higher the body acidity becomes.

According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, "Distilled water, being essentially mineral-free, is very aggressive, in that it tends to dissolve substances with which it is in contact.

Notably, carbon dioxide from the air is rapidly absorbed, making the water acidic and even more aggressive. Many metals are dissolved by distilled water."

The most toxic commercial beverages that people consume (i.e. cola beverages and other soft drinks) are made from distilled water. Studies have consistently shown that heavy consumers of soft drinks (with or without sugar) spill huge amounts of calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals into the urine.

The more mineral loss, the greater the risk for osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, hypothyroidism, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure and a long list of degenerative diseases generally associated with premature aging.

A growing number of health care practitioners and scientists from around the world have been advocating the theory that aging and disease is the direct result of the accumulation of acid waste products in the body.

There is a great deal of scientific documentation that supports such a theory. A poor diet may be partially to blame for the waste accumulation. Meats, sugar, white flour products, fried foods, soft drinks, processed foods, alcohol, dairy products and other junk foods cause the body to become more acidic. Stress, whether mental or physical can lead to acid deposits in the body.

There is a correlation between the consumption of soft water (distilled water is extremely soft) and the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Cells, tissues and organs do not like to be dipped in acid and will do anything to buffer this acidity including the removal of minerals from the skeleton and the manufacture of bicarbonate in the blood.

The longer one drinks distilled water, the more likely the development of mineral deficiencies and an acid state. I have done well over 3000 mineral evaluations using a combination of blood, urine and hair tests in my practice. Almost without exception, people who consume distilled water exclusively, eventually develop multiple mineral deficiencies.

Those who supplement their distilled water intake with trace minerals are not as deficient but still not as adequately nourished in minerals as their non-distilled water drinking counterparts even after several years of mineral supplementation.

The ideal water for the human body should be alkaline and this requires the presence of minerals like calcium and magnesium.

Distilled water tends to be acidic and can only be recommended as a way of drawing poisons out of the body. Once this is accomplished, the continued drinking of distilled water is a bad idea. Disease and early death is more likely to be seen with the long term drinking of distilled water. Avoid it except in special circumstances.

Over 300 Pollutants in U.S. Tap Water!

2009-12-30T08:34:00.000-08:00

Over 300 Pollutants in U.S. Tap Water

Since 2004, testing by water utilities has found 315 pollutants in the tap water Americans drink, according to an Environmental Working Group (EWG) drinking water quality analysis of almost 20 million records obtained from state water officials.

More than half of the chemicals detected are not subject to health or safety regulations and can legally be present in any amount. The federal government does have health guidelines for others, but 49 of these contaminants have been found in one place or another at levels above those guidelines, polluting the tap water for 53.6 million Americans. The government has not set a single new drinking water standard since 2001.

Water utilities spend 19 times more on water treatment chemicals every year than the federal government invests in protecting lakes and rivers from pollution in the first place.

Based on these data, EWG believes the federal government has a responsibility to do a national assessment of drinking water quality. It should establish new safety standards, set priorities for pollution prevention projects, and tell consumers about the full range of pollutants in their water.

Because it has not, EWG launched a 3-year project to create the largest drinking water quality database in existence. This user-friendly, interactive resource covers 48,000 communities in 45 states and the District of Columbia.
Check on your water here: http://www.ewg.org/

Note, this database will not show prescription drug residue in the drinking water. Residue from prescription drugs, ranging from birth control pills, anti depressant medication, sedatives etc. is found in every big city water system. This residue cannot be removed by most home water filters.

Bronchothermoplasty! Burning Your Lungs May Help Your Asthma??

How many of you are ready to have your lungs burned by "radiofrequency" heat that "reduces the ability of the breathing tubes to constrict." Permanently?

What about in cold weather when they should constrict?

What about the Millions of tiny airsacs the Bronchoscope cannot reach and therefore cannot treat?

How long will the treatment last, 1 or 2 years, then you have to do it again?

What about scar tissue? Won't the burned tissue just grow back? Why not?

Who conducted the study? Who paid for it? How much do each of the 3 treatments cost?

Will the treatment cure your asthma? What about the "side effects?" Quoting the study website: "There is the possibility of-
fever
bleeding
spasm
irregular heartbeat
shortness of breath
increased mucous secretion
or infection."

UCLA Study-Further Proof of the Dangers of Soda!

2009-12-23T18:54:00.000-08:00

You would think that it is a no-brainer. Soda is BAD. It fosters all kinds of metabolic related diseases. Here is yet another arrow in the back for soda, a new UCLA study.

Regular soda consumption significantly increases a person's risk of obesity, according to a study conducted by researchers from the University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA).

"We drink soda like water," said Harold Goldstein of the Center for Public Health Advocacy, which also took part in the study. "But unlike water, soda serves up a whopping 17 teaspoons of sugar in every 20-ounce serving."

Researchers interviewed 40,000 adults on their beverage consumption habits, finding that adults who drank one sugary beverage per day were 27 percent more likely to be classified as overweight than those who drank sugary beverages less frequently.

Drinking one soda per day involves the consumption of 39 pounds of sugar per year.

According to the San Jose Mercury News, 15.5 percent of adults, 56 percent of teenagers, and 41 percent of children under the age of 12 in Santa Cruz County, Calif., consume one soda per day. The figures on children's consumption were obtained from their parents.

American Diabetes Association - Disease Pimps!

2009-12-23T08:12:00.000-08:00

An ADA Ad:

"In the next 24 hours, diabetes will kill 200 people! With your help, we can stop it. DONATE TODAY!"

What would the ADA do if diabetes were cured? Who is on their Board of Directors? What would they do for money if diabetes was cured?

Why do they not spread the word that diabetes Can be cured? I cured my Type 2 diabetes.

Unfortunately, the ADA is in league with Big Pharma and the AMA. They all profit from making sure that people suffering from chronic illnesses remain dependent on drugs to prolong a life of misery, never being cured.

Dr Batmanghelidj was a gastroenterologist who gave his life proving that most chronic diseases were caused by dehydration of the body's cells. Despite published papers and acclaim from other doctors and health care professionals, Big Pharma, the AMA and the disease associations, (diseased pimps), were able to marginalize him and his work, before he died under mysterious circumstances in a US hospital of "complications of pneumonia."

You will be amazed and angered when you read his books. He finally realized that he would get nowhere thru established medical channels and wrote a series of books to explain to the layman that they were being victimized by the Medical Mafia and how they could cure themselves.

My father died a horrible death from diabetes, my mother died from colon cancer, my baby sister died from lupus: Dr Batmanghelidij cured all of these diseases. Dr Batmanghelidj anticipated his own death, saying in his last book, "I am surprised that I am still alive!" considering the underhand tactics of Big Pharma and the rest of the Medical Mafia.

He implored us to spread the word about his work so that we could end the reign of terror visited upon us by Big Pharma. I have dedicated my life to helping spread the knowledge of this great man.

Read his books, "Water Cures, Drugs Kill" "ABC of Asthma, Allergies and Lupus" and "The Body's Many Cries for Water"

I have started a study group in which we explore the doctor's work and how to apply his healing methods to ourselves. I also tell my story of how I cured my
Type 2 diabetes and my lifelong asthma using his water protocol.

You can participate in my study group. If you are in the Philadelphia area, you can attend the meetings. If you are not in Philly, the meeting is broadcast over the Internet. Click here for more info There is no fee to join or to participate

Doctors Say CT Scans Cause Death and Cancer!

2009-12-19T08:54:00.000-08:00

Radiation from CT scans done in 2007 will cause 29,000 cancers and kill nearly 15,000 Americans, researchers said on Monday.

The findings, published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, add to mounting evidence that Americans are overexposed to radiation from diagnostic tests, especially from a specialized kind of X-ray called a computed tomography, or CT, scan.

*************************************************************************************
Bill's Comment
*************************************************************************************
Try to avoid CT scans if at all possible. If a scan is recommended by a doctor, get a 2nd or 3rd opinion. It is possible that your doctor owns or has an investment in the location that does the scanning.

If you must undergo a CAT Scan or have undergone one recently, overload yourself with antioxidants. THey will help protect you from cancer and death from free radicals. Use Alpha Lipoic Acid, Vitamins E D and C. Check with your alternative health provider, chiropractor, naturopath etc. Tell them you need highest safe doses to ward off radiation exposure.

Study showed a 20 fold increase in free radicals of brain tissue when Ph was lowered to 6.2 by lactic acid, a 10 fold increase in free radicals when Ph lowered by CO2.
This is the main way that asthma kills, by an acidizing buildup of CO2 due to breath restriction, leading to a cascade of deadly free radicals that destroy brain tissue.
*************************************************************************************

*************************************************************************************
Stop the acidosis by freeing the breathing and augment the antioxidants (fat soluble Vit E or Alpha Lipoic Acid) in the patient's brain to stop asthma from killing!

You can easily free up the breathing by administering 2-3 glasses of water with a pinch of salt to the patient, accompanied by a dose of ALA.

Scientists Find McDonald's Meal Produces Disease Producing Free Radicals!

2009-12-16T13:07:00.000-08:00

Paresh Dandona, MD, Director of the Diabetes-Endocrinology Center of Western New York and Chief of the Division of Endocrinology at the Medical School of the State University of New York at Buffalo, showed that a small McDonald’s meal, 900 calories, resulted in inflammation and oxidative stress at a cellular, molecular level.

The markers Dr. Dandona and his team used to establish the presence of inflammation and oxidative stress are the same ones the body produces when it is seriously hurt.

“In the cells, we look at nuclear factor kB (NF-kappa B), which is the orchestrator of inflammation. When we get infections, it is NF-kappa B that gets stimulated,” he explains. “We were shocked to find that what infections do, food does, too.”

Disturbingly, the post-meal inflammatory reaction did not resolve quickly — study subjects still showed signs of inflammation five hours after eating.

Dr. Dandona’s research also found that people with obesity who already had a basic level of inflammation and oxidative stress had a worse reaction than people of normal weight when challenged with a fast-food meal. “Sure enough, they start from higher levels of inflammation, they achieve a much higher level, and the inflammation is much more prolonged.” The oxidative and inflammatory stress observed with meals probably contributes to atherosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke.

Now the good news: Some foods may protect against inflammation. Dr. Dandona and his team tested a portion of orange juice containing 300 calories against an amount of glucose containing 300 calories and found that while the glucose caused inflammation, the orange juice did not, despite the fact that it, too, is pure carbohydrate.

Their next experiment investigated what happened when subjects drank orange juice with a small McDonald’s meal. “And guess what: Orange juice neutralizes inflammation. To me, that is one of the most amazing findings in the field of nutrition today,” says Dr. Dandona. “On the one hand you have all these terrible things that cause inflammation, but if you take a certain amount of orange juice, it balances things off. That’s really remarkable.”

Part of the reason orange juice and glucose have a different impact on inflammation may be due to the nature of the type of carbohydrate: The sugar in orange juice is half fructose, and fructose is noninflammatory. But what would cause it to be anti-inflammatory? “The secret is probably in agents called flavonoids, which are what gives orange juice its yellow color,” says Dr. Dandona. “And two major flavonoids are hesperetin and naringenin, which have shown in the test tube to suppress free-radical formation and to be anti-inflammatory. Chances are that the secret is in these flavonoids.”

***********************************************************************************
Bill's Comments
***********************************************************************************
Wow! What a Bombshell! Why haven't we heard about this before? The doctor's work also showed that consuming fat, the other major component of a McDonald's meal, also produced free radicals.

Dr Dandona's research also showed that antioxidants in food, such as the flavonoids in the orange juice, can and do protect the body against free radical damage.

Consumption of Sugar Generates Free Radicals!

2009-12-16T12:42:00.000-08:00

University at Buffalo endocrinologists published a ground breaking study in the August, 2009 issue of The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, that shows that excess sugar in the bloodstream stimulates the generation of free radicals, the oxygen molecules known to damage cells lining blood vessels and many other organs.

In blood vessels, free-radical injury causes inflammation and initiates the accumulation of plaque that can lead to blocked arteries and cardiovascular disease.

"We've known for some time that eating certain foods, particularly those containing the antioxidant vitamins A, E and C, can help protect against damage from free radicals," said Paresh Dandona, M.D., UB professor of medicine, director of the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism for UB and Kaleida Health, and senior author on the study. "This is the first time anyone has shown that nutrition has a role in generating free radicals."

Not only does the consumption of sugar generate dangerous free radicals, it also reduces the body's supply of antioxidants, making the whole body more susceptible to free radical damage.

91% Of Canccer Docs Won't Take Chemotherapy!

2009-12-15T19:43:00.000-08:00

1986, McGill Cancer Center in Montreal, one of the largest and most esteemed cancer treatment centers in the world, surveyed 64 oncologists to see how they would personally respond to a diagnosis of cancer. The results will blow your mind. Are you sitting down? Of the 64 oncologists surveyed, 58 said that...

“ALL chemotherapy programs were unacceptable to them and their family members due to the fact that the drugs don’t work and are toxic!”

That means that 91% of the oncologists surveyed would not submit themselves to the same protocols that they prescribe to their patients! Why?

Well for one, the fact tha 98% of chemotherapy victims die from the treatment and that 75% of the oncologists income comes from markups of the chemotherapy poison they prescribe for their patients may havew something to do with their decision.

Body Mass Index Accurate Predictor of Cardiovascular Disease!

2009-12-08T13:56:00.000-08:00

December 7, 2009 (The Hague, the Netherlands) — A large prospective study of more than 20 000 Dutch people has shown that body-mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC)--accurately measured by trained staff--were equally predictive of cardiovascular disease (CVD)events and mortality over 10 years [1]. The results are published online December 7, 2009 in the European Journal of Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation.

In summary, in obese respondents (>BMI 30 kg/m2), relative risk of fatal CVD was fourfold higher and risk of nonfatal CVD was twofold higher than in normal-weight respondents. Similar associations were observed for WC (>88 cm vs <80 cm in women and >102 cm vs <94 cm in men).

In those with BMI >25 kg/m2, half of all fatal CVD and a quarter of nonfatal CVD were ascribed to their being overweight.

Chemotherapy Leads to Long Term Neurological Damage!

2009-11-28T19:15:00.000-08:00

The November 25 issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute contains a report about the long-term side effects experienced by men who received cisplatin-based chemotherapy for testicular cancer.

Severe neurological side effects, discoloration of the hands and feet when exposed to the cold (Raynaud-like phenomena), tinnitus, and impaired hearing were found to be common in men who received chemotherapy as opposed to those who did not.

Men who received cancer treatment between 1980 and 1994 were given follow-up surveys between 1998 and 2002 to assess their conditions after treatment. Researchers found that in the decades following treatment, those men who received any form of chemotherapy were significantly more likely to be experiencing long-term negative side-effects as a result.

In the chemotherapy group, 39 percent of men reported Raynaud-like phenomena, 29 percent reported paresthesias in the hands or feet, 21 percent reported hearing impairment, and 22 percent reported tinnitus symptoms.

Marianne Brydoy, M.D., from Haukeland University's Department of Oncology in Norway, conducted the study with the help of her colleagues to verify the correlation between high rates of long-term neurological damage and chemotherapy. Since the control groups who did not receive any form of chemotherapy experienced far fewer neurological damage incidents than did those who received chemotherapy, the results are indicative of an underlying problem with chemotherapy treatment.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"An underlying problem with chemotherapy treatment?" Dho!
What an misrepresentation! Chemotherapy is PROFIT! It is estimated that up to 75% of an oncologist's income comes from commissions, markups, kickbacks your friendly cancer doc receives on the Chemo he peddles, the more chemo he prescribes, the more money he makes and the sicker you become! Great system.

That is why Dr Batmanghelidj could make little headway with his remarkable experiments and thousands of successful outcomes for patients treated with his remarkable water protocol, with the Medical Maffia!

That is why Dr Batmanghelidj had to die. That is why we must all band together to spread the news of his great work. Tell all your friends and relatives suffering from any chronic, degenerative disease, cancer, asthma, diabetes, hypertension, etc. That help and possibly cure is only as far away as this link. Listen as I interview the Father of a 17 year old, lifelong asthmatic who had to use her inhaler 3 times per day and who missed 3/4 of her school term because her asthma was so bad. She was cured by Dr Batmanghelidj's water protocol in only 7 days! Click here, Now!

Aspirin Kills 4 X as Many as Swine Flu!

2009-11-20T04:35:00.000-08:00

The July 1998 issue of The American Journal of Medicine:

"Conservative calculations estimate that approximately 107,000 patients are hospitalized annually for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)(aspirin is the most common)-related gastrointestinal (GI) complications and at least 16,500 NSAID-related deaths occur each year among arthritis patients alone." (Singh Gurkirpal, MD, “Recent Considerations in Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Gastropathy”, The American Journal of Medicine, July 27, 1998, p. 31S)

So for every person the CDC claims was killed by H1N1 swine flu this year, common painkillers like aspirin have killed four! Yet you don't see the CDC, FDA, WHO or mainstream media running around screaming about the extreme dangers of aspirin, do you? All those deaths apparently don't matter. Only swine flu deaths lead to hysteria and profits for Big Pharma!

Wyeth Pays Docs to Write Bogus Research Papers in Medical Journals

2009-11-19T12:52:00.000-08:00

Drugs Kill!

The Discovery process in one of the thousands of lawsuits brought against Wyeth Labs, the former American Home Products, has uncovered the criminal underside of Big Pharma and the medical industry. It clearly reveals how some of the insane profits it wrenches from you and me are put to use with wanton disregard to the death of patients.

Thousands of women have been maimed and killed by breast cancers caused by Wyeth's postmenstrual hormone replacement drugs, premarin and prempro.

It is not enough that deaths resulting from Correctly prescribed drugs kill enough unsuspecting patients that this is now the 5th leading death in this country.(Washington Post) Big Pharma's insatiable quest for blood money allows them to corrupt the very integrity of the entire medical establishment.

Hold your nose and read the unbelievable details here in the New York Times! Unbelievable: http://tw0.us/4x6

What do think will be the result of this expose? Nothing? You are right!

What can you do to fight this Outrageously Criminal practice of the Big Pharm, of which the Wyeth case is not alone? Come join one of our nationwide Study Groups we organized around the incredible, ground breaking work of the late Dr Batmanghelidj.

He devoted 20 years to researching, experimenting and proving that plain water could cure major life threatening diseases like cancer, diabetes and heart disease. During that period, he cured thousands of patients of these diseases. No toxic, expensive, dangerous drugs from Big Pharma could do this!

His work has been systematically debunked, marginalized and stifled by Big Pharma and the medical profession. Our study groups are organized around one the last book he wrote in 2003, "Water Cures, Drugs Kill." which incorporate his most up to date findings and contains scores of personal testimonies from people who followed his teachings and cured themselves with water, including other health care professionals! The meetings are free and you can actually get started on his water protocol right at the meeting! Check to see if there is one in your area yet:

Why HFC, (High Fructose Corn Syrup) Will Make You Fat AND Diabetic!

2009-11-02T07:36:00.000-08:00

Although corn syrup is a natural product, that does not make it safe.

Simply stated, the fructose in corn syrup neither stimulates insulin secretion nor reduces the hunger hormone ghrelin, therefore the sugar will build up in your blood stream and you will continue to feel hungry while the body converts the fructose into fat.

In other words, High Fructose Corn Syrup will make you FAT! Certain fat cells, especially those around the middle of the body actually produce hormones that suppress insulin production. That is why obesity is the most accurate predictor of who will get diabetes. There are other metabolic dangers that HFC will expose you too. Stay tuned.

Stevia is a natural plant that is made into a natural sweetener with no calories. It is the only non-sugar sweetener that is safe and non fattening.

Chlorine Damages Fetuses in Pregnant Women!

2009-10-30T16:43:00.000-07:00

Two Studies Confirm:
Chlorine Is Very Dangerous for Your Health
Which Is Found In Your Shower Water
(and also in Your Drinking Tap Water)
by www.SixWise.com

The long-term health effects of exposure to chlorinated water are becoming more common in the news headlines. The health effects of chlorine through inhalation (from the steam in your shower, for instance) and ingestion (from tap water) include:

* Cancers of the bladder, liver, rectum and colon
* Heart disease
* Atherosclerosis
* Anemia
* High blood pressure
* Allergic reactions

And now two studies further confirm the risk of exposure of chlorine to the fetuses of pregnant women.

Studies Link Chlorine to Birth Defects

Two recent studies focused on the health effects for pregnant women who drank chlorinated water. One, published in the Environmental Health Journal, reported that pregnant women who lived in areas with tap water with high concentrations of chlorine disinfectants nearly doubled their risk of having children with heart problems, a cleft palate or major brain defects. Other specific birth defects listed in the study were:

*

Anencephalus, a brain condition, rose to .17 percent in high THM areas
*

Hole-in-the-heart defects nearly doubled
*

Number of cleft palates rose from 0.029 percent to 0.045 percent in high THM areas
*

Risks of having children with the above three birth defects increased between 50 and 100 percent
*

Slightly raised risk of having children with urinary tract defects and Down’s syndrome

“Our findings don’t just add to the evidence that water chlorination may cause birth defects but suggest that exposure to chlorination by-products may be responsible for some specific and research common defects,” said Professor Jouni Jaakkola of the University of Birmingham who led the research team.

Exposure can happen by drinking the water, taking a bath or a shower or by standing closely to a boiling pot of tea. The danger of exposure to pregnant women happens when the chemical by-products of chlorination called trihalomethanes (THMs) are absorbed through the skin and then transmitted to the womb.

THMs are one type of disinfection byproduct (DBP) created when the disinfectants used to kill bacteria in the U.S. drinking water supply, such as chlorine, react with natural organic matter, such as decaying vegetation, or when certain compounds such as bromide are present in the water.

Studies have linked THMs with low birth weight and neurological abnormalities in infants, along with increased incidences of neural tube defects, small body length, and small head size in babies born to women drinking water containing 400 ppb THMs.

Research has also linked an increased risk of bladder cancer with exposures of 50 ppb, and first trimester miscarriage in pregnant women drinking water with 75 ppb -- both of which are under the EPA “safe” limit.

The second study published by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry showed that some birth defects such as spinal bifida and neural tube defects are linked to total THMs ingested in drinking water. Risks of neural tube defects were doubled among women with the highest exposure to THMs.

How Did Chlorine Find Its Way Into the U.S. Water Supply and Who Regulates it?

Back in 1908, chlorine was added to a community water system in New Jersey as a way to get rid of many types of water-borne diseases such as Cholera and Typhoid fever. Before chlorination, many major cities experienced death tolls of 1 in 1,000 people from Typhoid alone.

For over 80 years, chlorine has been used to disinfect municipal water and it wasn’t until the 1970s that it was discovered that combining water with natural, organic matter such as vegetation and algae produced Trihalomethanes. Today, chlorine is injected into drinking water in two ways: injected directly by bubbling chlorine gas into the reservoir of drinking water or by adding calcium hypo chloride (bleaching powder) to water.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets the standards for acceptable levels of contaminants in drinking water. Their defined standard for chloroform, the most common trihalomethane found in chlorinated water, is 100 parts per billion or 100 micrograms per liter of water.

They base this on an estimate that this level of contamination results in an added lifetime cancer risk of about 2 per 100,000 person-years, assuming the average person is consuming about two liters of drinking water per day.

Researchers from the Boston University School of Public Health believe that the cancer risk from chlorinated water may be up to 10-50 times higher than the EPA estimate. This is due to the fact that the EPA’s estimate is based solely on ingesting drinking water as the source of trihalomethanes. They didn’t take into account the chloroform exposure from bathing, showering and doing laundry.

According to some studies, two-thirds of the harmful exposure to chlorine is due to inhalation of steam and skin absorption while showering. Taking a warm shower opens up your skin pores and clears the way for accelerated absorption of chlorine.

The steam inhaled during showers contains up to 50 times the amount of chemicals in tap water. This is because the chlorine, along with other contaminants and DBPs, vaporize at a faster rate and at a lower temperature than water. Once inhaled, the chlorine goes directly into your bloodstream.

Leading experts are confirming the dangerous effects of inhaling chlorine while taking showers.

According to researcher Bruce Black during a meeting of the American Chemical Society:

“Taking long, hot showers is a health risk. The chemicals evaporate out of the water and are inhaled. They can also spread through the house and be inhaled by others. House holders can receive 6 to 100 times more of the chemical by breathing the air around showers and bath than they would by drinking the water.”

Further, a Professor of Water Chemistry at the University of Pittsburgh claims that exposure to vaporized chemicals in the water supplies through showering, bathing and inhalation is 100 times greater than through drinking water.

And according to Dr. Lance Wallace, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, “Showering is suspected as the primary cause of elevated levels of chloroform in nearly every home because of chlorine in the water.”
________________________________________________________
Also note that chlorine is not the only dangerous chemical in your water. PRescription Drugs are a recently observed, but fast growing hazard. Just as you would fear having your unborn baby and the rest of your family exposed to chlorine, I have no doubt that you would not want them exposed to birth control pills, ritlin and other antidepressants, powerful heart disease and anti diabetic drugs. A recent study found the residue from 52 different drugs in the Philadelphia, Pa public water! A simple chlorine filter will NOT remove the prescription drug residue.

An End to the Aids Bull Crap!

2009-10-28T22:23:00.000-07:00

Essentially, AIDS can be cured in much the same way cancer can be cured: By radically altering food intake and lifestyle decisions to support a vibrant, healthy immune system.

Remember what Dr Luc Montagnier, Nobel Prize winning co-discoverer of AIDS said in the film: "We can be exposed to HIV many times without being ... infected. Our immune system creates [antibodies] within a few weeks, if you have a good immune system."

In other words, AIDS exposure is not a death sentence (as Big Pharma would have you believe). It's like many other viruses: A weakened, suppressed immune system gives it the opportunity to wreak havoc throughout your body, but a strong immune system allows you to overcome AIDS and build up your own immunity in a few weeks.

MSG Implicated in Grotesque Obesity

2009-10-26T19:42:00.000-07:00

There appears to be no question that MSG and aspartame cause lesions in the hypothalamus, the portion of the brain that is recognized to affect weight resulting in obesity and even grotesque obesity.

MSG is considered an “exciteotoxin,” meaning that it stimulates neurotransmitters in the brain which in turn “excite” nerves related to taste, making food taste better.

In other words, it actually adds no flavor to your food; the enhanced flavor literally is “all in your head.” Now, the reason scientists have given in the past for MSG contributing to weight gain is that the nerves excited by MSG don’t only affect your taste buds — they also give you a speedy, caffeinated feeling and simultaneously damage the appetite regulation center in your hypothalamus.

The impaired hypothalamus then fails to send you a cue to stop eating even if you’re full, and so you eat like a hippo.

It makes sense that if MSG leads to unregulated appetite, those who consume it would gain weight; that’s how scientists have explained the MSG-related weight gain in lab animals. But in the recent study, the researchers controlled for caloric intake and still MSG led to significant weight gain — so clearly, something independent of nerve-induced gluttony is going on. The scientists postulate that in addition to stimulating appetite, MSG alters fat metabolism, plus, it seems to impair the hormones that control weight gain.

MSG and Aspartame are found in many food and pharmaceutical substances, often without being identified as such on the labels.

If only you could just scratch MSG from your diet, it would be an easy fix. But MSG masquerades as many other innocuous sounding ingredients that you’ll find in a large proportion of food items. For instance, all of these additives always contain MSG (or simply are MSG in disguise): yeast extract, hydrolyzed protein, calcium caseinate, sodium caseinate, textured protein (including TVP), corn oil, and gelatin. Other additives that may contain MSG include corn starch, soy sauce, seasonings, carageenan, maltodextrin, rice syrup, whey protein, soy protein isolate, malt flavoring, stock, and many others.

Oh, and shopping at the health food store doesn’t guarantee that you’ll avoid MSG. Check labels and you’ll be shocked to discover that, in fact, even many organic prepared foods contain either MSG, or free-form glutamic acid.

For instance, Bragg’s Liquid Amino Acids are a rich source of free glutamic acid (hydrochloric acid is used in processing the liquid aminos). And many so-called “natural flavors” can include protein hydrolysates which can contain up to 20% MSG.

Lest you despair that you’ll never lose weight with MSG so omnipresent, here’s a bit of advice. Avoid prepared foods, rely on local organic produce to the extent possible, learn which MSG imposters masquerade as other ingredients and check labels.
________________________________________________________________________
MSG is the food scientist's best friend. Now he can surely get you hooked on MSG laden foods so that you will "eat like a Hippo"

There is no other choice than to heed the advice in the last part of the article, "Avoid prepared foods. Rely on local organic produce to the extent possible. Learn which MSG imposters maquerade as other ingredients.

Doctors Agree, Nutrition is the Key to Preventing, Controlling and Curing Cancer!

2009-10-24T11:50:00.000-07:00

Dr. T. Colin Campbell, author of the highly acclaimed book, The China Study, and his team of researchers has conclusively demonstrated in his studies conducted over twenty years that it is possible to turn cancer on and turn cancer off.

He determined that diet has an absolute effect on all cancers. The same conclusion was reached when they looked at diet’s effect on diabetes, heart disease, autoimmune disease and many other significant and less significant health conditions.

In 1998, the American Institute for Cancer Research awarded Dr. Campbell their Research Achievement award for his lifetime of work toward a resolution based in diet and lifestyle choices that affect a variety of cancers.

Dr Campbell has a love for the natural way to health and is determined to speak out on the influence of “big medicine” on wellness, a subject he speaks passionately in the China Study.

In Dr. Campbell’s conclusions of nutritional and environmental factors affecting the presence of all cancers, his hypothesis compliments the position of Hiromi Shinya, MD, an oncologist who invented the modern colonoscope.

His similar clinical observations on patients in his practices both in the United States and in Japan can at last put our minds at ease. It is now possible to have control of a death defying situation called cancer. In the judgment of both men and supported by Susan Lark, MD in her book, Chemistry of Success, acid causing diets have a negative effect in our body that can lead to disease. In fact in 1933 Dr. Otto Warburg was given the Nobel Prize for discovering that cancer cells can only live in an overly acidic body, they die by themselves in an alkaline body. In fact, it is now agreed that virtually all chronic diseases can be traced back to imbalances of the body caused by bad nutrition.

All three doctors have concluded that an alkaline diet consisting of plant-based foods, augmented with alkaline water, exercise and meditation can thwart the growth of cancer, crush the incidence of diabetes and inhibit the occurrence of heart disease.

USDA Gives OK to Marketing Mad-Cow Contaminated Beef!

2009-10-24T10:24:00.000-07:00

The USDA just ruled that it is ok to market meat from so-called "downer cows" cows that died before slaughter and are a high risk for the prions that signal mad cow disease as long as their meat is mixed with meat from healthy cows!

How does adding another cow's meat to the downer cow's meat make the downer cow's meat any safer? It doesn't, of course, but the USDA (FDA,FAA etc) isn't really interested in consumer safety. That's why they've issued this statement that means a meat packing company can use 99% of its beef from mad cow disease "downer" cows, and 1% of its beef from healthy cows, and it's all declared "safe" by the USDA with no need to recall the beef!

Now you can see why I consider the USDA to be such a joke. Much like the FDA, the USDA is primarily focused on protecting the profits of the industry it claims to regulate. What's important to the USDA is promoting beef, not protecting the public, and that's exactly why you also see these intentional delays in the USDA issuing beef recalls. These delays are specifically designed to limit the financial losses associated with beef recalls by making sure most of the meat is already eaten by consumers before the recall is issued.

Vitamin C and E Linked to Lower Blood Pressure!

2009-10-22T18:26:00.000-07:00

Dr Joseph Mercola:

"According to results of a recent study, rats that consumed foods with free radicals -- compounds that are linked to heart disease and other chronic illnesses -- had lower levels of nitric oxide and higher blood pressure.

However, adding vitamins C and E to the rats' diet appeared to partially reverse this degenerative process, resulting in lower blood pressure levels."

Dr Mercola is a conventional medical doctor "Gone Bad!"

He is now a big advocate of alternative medicine, especially nutrition based alternatives.

Why doesn't conventional medicine acknowledge and adopt natural treatments of all chronic diseases, like hypertension?

It has been observed by a growing list of doctors that most chronic degenerative diseases are the result of poor nutrition, the recommendations of the Standard American Diet (SAD), which is low in antioxidant nutrients and very high in acid producing foods.

Consuming this diet results in the build up of acid in the body and oxidative stress caused by the free radicals that defeat the body's stores of antioxidants. This leaves the body incapable of defending itself from attack by various diseases and maladies.

Once the body's defenses are restored by consuming foods that are alkaline and full of natural antioxidants and by drinking Ionized, alkaline water, which is the strongest antioxidant available, the body is then able to defeat the disease producing microbes and "heal" itself.

Vitamin E Very Effective Protects Diabetics From Heart Attacks!

2009-10-21T09:09:00.000-07:00

A study published in the Journal Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology revealed that our body needs an antioxidant protein called haptoglobin that prevents inflammation of the artery walls and this wards off cardiovascular events like heart attacks.

While most diabetics are deficient in antioxidants, some diabetics have a genetic condition (Hp 2-2) that causes a deficiency of haptoglobin making them even more prone to cardiovascular damage.

A group of Israeli researchers discovered that vitamin E supplements were able to thwart heart attacks in diabetics, even those with the Hp 2-2 gene. They studied the effects of vitamin E on 1,400 type 2 diabetics with the Hp 2-2 gene and over 55 years old. They were divided into 2 groups - with one receiving placebo and the other 400 IU vitamin E daily.

At 18 months, the results showed that the placebo group had twice the number of heart attacks, strokes and cardiovascular related deaths. Because of such a phenomenal result, the trial was terminated early and all the placebo patients were put on vitamin E supplementation.
___________________________________
The conclusion is that Vitamin E is a protector of the cardiovascular system. Without an adequate supply of vitamin E and other antioxidants, diabetics will suffer deadly complications of the disease. That is why their glucose lowering drugs have little to no impact on the progression of diabetes because they do not address the underlying disease, which is caused by free radicals (which the antioxidants eliminate) and over acidity of the blood, which also damages blood vessels and is neutralized with an alkaline diet.

Conventional Medicine Killed More Americans in 10 Years Than All Wars in Our History!

2009-10-18T10:06:00.000-07:00

Organized (traditional) medicine more efficient than war in killing Americans!

7.8 million iatrogenic deaths in last decade more than all wars fought by U.S.

by The Idaho Observer

The most comprehensive report on “government-approved medicine” ever conducted shows that organized medicine has killed 7,841,360 Americans in the last 10 years.

“Our estimated 10-year total of 7.8 million iatrogenic [doctor-induced] deaths is more than all the casualties from all the wars fought by the U.S. throughout its entire history,” commented the Nutrition Institute of America (NIA), in its report, “Death By Medicine” (Oct., 2003).

The concept of the report was prompted by the fact that, while conventional medicine kills hundreds of thousands of Americans each year, government regulators ban and restrict the use of vitamins and herbs that kill no one.

Incidentally, the report, which resulted from the compilation and analysis of 94 U.S. hospitals and hundreds of medical journal articles, determined that medical error causes an astounding 783,936 deaths per year (and growing). “It is evident that the American medical system is itself the leading cause of death and injury in the U.S.,” the authors observed.

The purpose of the report was to memorialize the total failure of the American medical system and to “provide the basis for competent and compassionate medical professionals to recognize the inadequacies of today's system and at least attempt to institute meaningful reforms,” wrote the editors of Life Extension magazine.
______________________________________________________
Bill's Comments__________________________________

Clearly this is a controversial thesis, that organized, conventional medicine kills 3/4 million Americans each year. But before you dismiss it, take a look at some of its most egregious features. When you couple it with the fact that the same forces are behind the deadly Standard American Diet, (SAD), the figures sighted in the report are probably conservative!

The intersection of the food industry and the medical industry is at the bank.

Bankers demand profits. In fact, they and all US corporations are mandated by law to put profits for shareholders before any other considerations, such as health, public safety, patriotism and even God. (Dodge vs Ford, 1916)

They finance a food industry that produces foods that are bad for our health, but profitable. Take monoculture for instance. This is the long discredited practice of growing the same crop in the same soil year after year. Since the same crop is drawing the same minerals from the soil, it becomes depleted.

This is what caused the great dust bowls of the 1930's. However, with the advent of synthetic fertilizers, which is more profitable than rotating crops to rest the soil is now the norm in Industrial Agriculture. The result is crops with little to no nutritional value.

Also, crops are being genetically modified (GM). They are being bred to be resistant to diseased, drought and flood, which might seem like a good idea, certainly one that will increase profits, but at what cost to the nutritional value of the result?

Other genetic manipulations include breeding crops that will survive transcontinental shipping and long storage times without spoiling and crops that appear perfect and healthy. Have you taken a bite out of a tomato recently? How about a strawberry? Much of these "advantages" come at the expense of the nutritional content of the fruit.

Bottom line is that much of what passes for wholesome fruits and vegetables today are deficient in the vitamins and minerals that we need for health and in fact, through selective breeding and genetic modification may actually be harmful to our health.

As far as raising livestock goes, the nostalgic picture of the farmer sucking on a weed next to the cattle pen with the red barn in the distance is pure bunk. Go see "Food Inc" to see how cows, pigs and chickens are really raised these days on "Factory Farms."

Cows are fed grain which is an unnatural food for them. Their natural food is grass. It changes their Omega 3 Fatty acids which we need for our health to Omega 6 fatty acids which most of us have too much of and has been implicated in many human diseases.

That is the good news. Cows and other animals are also fed the ground up carcasses of other dead animals! Hogs are born, fed and slaughtered in pens where they have little or no room to move in total filth. Chickens are raised in "factories" where they never once see the sun.

Dairy cows are shot full of Bovine Growth Hormone so that instead of 10 pounds of milk per day, they produce 100! This leads to problems, like having to wear brassiers to keep their udders off the ground. Disease and infection are rampant among these poor animals. Chickens with cancer, infected pigs and cows, all flooded with antibiotics that get into our bodies when we eat them along with growth hormones, one consequence of which is that girl's breasts are growing bigger, and their periods start earlier than normal, contributing to teenage pregnancy.

This brings us to step two. Since we are not getting the nutrients we need for our health but instead eating diseased, mutated animal flesh, we are being overwhelmed by diseases. Cancer now strikes 1 in 2 men, 1 in 8 New Yorkers has diabetes, 70 million have high blood pressure, etc. etc.

The same bankers finance the medical establishment. Their primary concern is profit. Most doctors are little more than drug pushers for the big pharmaceutical companies, Big Pharma. In medical school they are taught to "Name it and Tame it." Put a name to the patient's symptoms and then prescribe a drug for that disease.

In their practices they are bribed by Big Pharma; sports and show tickets, lavish catered lunches for the doctor and his staff, vacations in exotic places, to prescribe their hottest drugs.

These drugs share several qualities. They are expensive, they generally don't cure the disease they are prescribed for and they have dangerous "side effects."

I spoke to a woman recently who has had diabetes for 20 years. She takes 14 different medications, costing $1,017 every 3 months! A perfect patient in the eyes of Big Pharma.

The unholy Food/Pharma/Medical axis does not care how many people who fall ill or die because of their greed, as long as it makes money for their shareholders.

Acid in Lungs Triggers Asthma Attacks!

2009-10-17T21:57:00.000-07:00

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine:

Acid in your lungs triggers bronchial attacks!

Research published in American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine announced that they've uncovered an amazing trigger for asthma attacks—high acid levels in the lungs!

Dr. Benjamin Gaston and his research team discovered that shortly BEFORE a bronchial attack begins, acid levels in the lungs shot up as much as 1,000-fold! The researchers claim this increased acidity could contribute to inflammation in bronchial sufferers' airways, which then triggered the attack.

This was such a phenomenal discovery that researchers from Duke University Medical Center are now searching for bronchial symptom remedies using antacid therapy!

2009-10-09T10:41:00.000-07:00

Asthma is an inflammatory disease.

When you have an alergic reaction to something, that something generates free radicals. Free radicals are dangerous substances that attack various parts of the body. In the case of asthma, it is the smooth muscles inside the airways of the lungs.

Also many of the foods you eat and drink flood the bloodstream with acid, which also damages your body's cells and promotes the formation of additional free radicals.

When the lungs are inflamed the air passages become narrow and you feel shortness of breath and you cough, in an effort to open the blocked airways; especially when in a physically or emotionally stressful situation.

The inhalers and steroid drugs sold to you by Big Pharma only control the immediate inflammation and do not attack the cause of the inflammation, which is why you continue to have attacks.

The answer is to eliminate the excess acid in your blood and to boost you body's supply of antioxidants. This will protect the smooth muscle from being attacked and therefor ameliorate or prevent asthma attacks, depending on your compliance with our recommendations.

Therfore, the number and severity of your asthma attacks will be greatly reduced and they may stop altogether as long as you alkalize your blood and control free radicals.

How can you do this? Simple, alkalize your blood stream and increase the level of antioxidants in your body. You can do this in several ways:

Nutrition. Eat plenty of vegetables, especially brightly colored vegetables. They are alkaline foods and will help neutralize the acid in your blood, plus they contain phytochemicals that act as antioxidants.

Cut out dairy, which produces heavy mucus, cut way back on meat and fish as they are acid producers. Cut out fried foods as the heated oil is loaded with free radicals. Also cut out most baked goods, because of the oil (shortening) used in preparation and because the flour made from grains is also a source of acid.

Eliminate alcohol and sodas, even diet sodas. They are among the most acidic substances you can take. The same goes for energy drinks and most bottled waters (which in 40% of cases is nothing but overpriced tapwater!) are acidic as well.

Nutritional Supplements. Vitamins E and C are great antioxidants, especially E in preventing oxidative stress to the lungs.

Ionized Alkaline Water. For the fastest results in eliminating your asthma, drink copious volumes of Ionized Alkaline Water. This is the most powerful antioxidant available to you. It is also a very powerful eliminator of blood acidity as it has a very alkaline Ph value (index of alkaline/acid ratio in a liquid.

These measures will go a long way to eliminating your asthma without the cost and frankly danger of inhaled steroids and other medicines which you are taking which do not prevent or cure asthma attacks as they do nothing to attack the cause of asthma.

Deadly Diabetes Advice For Diabetics From a Registered Dietician!

2009-10-06T07:49:00.000-07:00

This is an excerpt from an article on Living With Diabetes, written by a Licensed Dietitian who will, mercifully (on my part!), remain nameless!

"By definition, diet simply means the foods that you choose everyday. There are no special foods for people with diabetes; you can eat all of the same foods that your family enjoys.

Food is such an important part of our culture and while some of our favorite foods may contribute to diabetes and heart disease, we should not have to give them up all together. By simple portion control and modifying the preparation of foods, you can enjoy all the foods that you love."
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Bill's Comments $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

So, blissfully "eat all the same foods that made you sick?"

This is incredibly bad advice to give a well person, let alone someone who is dying from diabetes!

Oh, you did not know that diabetes is a death sentence? It, along with its complications is the 3rd leading cause of death in this country and cuts about 10-15 years off of your life span?

Nutrition is the key to curing diabetes and most other chronic diseases. Poor nutrition is a big factor in insulin resistance, leading to a build up of acid in the blood and the generation of free radicals. Free radicals are mutant cells that attack normal cells, turning them into free radicals in a cascading chain of celluar raidcalization and spreding cell damage.

As a result of poor nutrition, acidosis and free radical damage, the insulin receptors on cells do not function properly and therefore glucose, sugar is prevented from entering the cells, which then call for more insulin. The result is that insulin and glucose build up in the blood stream, signaling but not causing diabetes. This leads to obesity, nerve damage, poor circulation; precursors to the complications of diabetes.

40% of diabetics suffer nerve damgae
25% suffer eye damage
50% suffer kidney damage
80% die from cardiovascular damage

Contrary to our mainstream diatician, the diet must be changed radically to an alkaline diet that helps eliminate the acidosis and contributes antioxidants to help fight the free radicalls.

Overacidity of the body is at the root of all disease!

2009-10-04T09:29:00.000-07:00

Excerpt of an article by Dr Robert O. Young

"The main point here is that bacteria, yeast, fungus or mold do not cause sickness and disease (including cancer) --- sickness and disease (including cancer and HIV) is a result of excess acidity or antigens that have not been properly buffered by antibodies or bases such as sodium bicarbonate (an alkalizing chemical).

Sickness and disease can only be caused by an over acidification (abundance of antigens) of the fluids of the body due to our own personal lifestyle and dietary choices.

As you contemplate the cause of the flu, cold or any so-called infection, may I suggest that each of us take personal responsibility for the consequences of our choices, rather than blame a phantom Avian Influenza virus, cold virus, flu virus, cancer virus or some non-existent HIV virus.

If you get sick, it is your own fault and not the cause of some phantom virus that you can blame to cover your own lifestyle and dietary transgressions. Save your money and save your life by making alkalizing and energizing lifestyle and dietary choices.

This is where true immunity is found -- not in a vaccine or a drug which are all acidic and poisonous to the body but in living an alkaline lifestyle." Dr Robert O. Young is a biochemical researcher and the author of several books on the subject of dietary solutions to diseases.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$Bill's Comments$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Dr Young is no relation.

Even Dr Louis Pasteur, the inventor of the Germ Theory of disease, recanted that theory at the end of his life, saying, "It is not the germs, but the terrain that causes sickness." (sic) In other words, it is the hospitable environment in the body that causes sickness.

Just as mosquitoes look for and can only survive in dirty stagnant water, they do not cause the water to become dirty and stagnant. Clean up the water and you get rid of the mosquitoes. Clean up (alkalize) your body and your disease will go away!

You can alkalize your lifestyle by proper foods, water, exercise, meditation and nutritional supplements. For more information, go here: http://AlakalizeMyLife.com

Actos and Avandia Can Make You Fatter!

2009-10-03T06:14:00.000-07:00

Sharon Begley of Newsweek reported:

"It is because the diabetes drugs Actos and Avandia activate PPAR gamma that one of their major side effects is obesity."

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$Bill's Observation and Comments$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Obesity of course is a major factor in Type 2 diabetes. Fat actually produces fatty acids which among other things damages nerves and promotes insulin resistance, leading to more production of fat as more sugar is converted to fat and stored.

Let me say it again:

Diabetes Drugs Do Not Cure Diabetes
Diabetes Drugs Have Dangerous Side Effects
Diabetes Drugs Do Not Prevent the "Complications" of Diabetes (Like death from heart attacks, 80% of diabetics die from heart attacks or other cardiovascular problems)
Diabetes Drugs Make the Underlying Cause of Diabetes, Over Acidity of the Blood, Worse
Diabetes Drugs Are Expensive

Stop the Swine Flu By Alkalizing Your Body!

2009-09-30T09:49:00.000-07:00

ABC News reported recently that the outbreak of
swine flu virus last spring was only a preview of the
alarming events to come. The full onslaught of swine
flu in the United States will make itself painfully
known during the upcoming flu season, starting fairly
early in September.

It will most likely infect 30-40% of the U.S.
population, or about 100 million people, according to
flu expert Ira Longini, from the University of
Washington's School of Public Health.

Initial supplies of the swine flu vaccine, which will
be available sometime between mid-September to late
October 2009, are expected to be very limited -- barely
enough to inoculate the 160 million people who are at
high risk of becoming infected. An even bigger concern
is whether the fast-tracked vaccine is safe and
effective -- since it's being rushed to market without
the appropriate testing and safety evaluations.

It is a growing suspicion in the general population
and among certain members of the medical community,
including Dr. Joseph Mercola, the publisher of a
popular self-titled natural health newsletter, that
being exposed to this new swine flu vaccine might prove
to be more dangerous than the swine flu itself.

Many scientists and doctors now believe that Microbes,
germs, harmful bacteria and viruses, such as the swine
influenza virus, do not cause disease in and of
themselves.

They do seek their natural habitat -- such as an
oxygen-deficient (overly acidic) body -- rather than being the CAUSE of
the disease. It's no different from the way mosquitoes
seek out stagnant water, but do not cause the water pool to
become stagnant.

This view is consistent with the findings
of Dr. Rudolf Virchow (1821 - 1902), also called the
"Father of Pathology."

It is also supported by Louis Pasteur, the notable
19th century French chemist and microbiologist best
known for his remarkable breakthroughs in the causes
and prevention of disease, who recanted his germ theory
of disease at his deathbed, stating, "The microbe is
nothing. The terrain is everything."

The terrain of which Pasteur spoke refers to an
oxygenated environment in the human body (alkaline Ph) which makes
for a strong immune system. A weakened or suppressed
state of the immune system only occurs when the human
body lacks oxygen, thereby allowing viruses, such as
the swine influenza virus, to breed.

It therefore stands to reason that the swine flu
virus does not CAUSE disease, but rather seeks out an
environment where it can thrive best -- and that is in
over acidic bodies. (Acidosis)

A sufficiently oxygenated bod is uninhabitable by
disease and viruses can neither
survive nor thrive in it. Therefore, the best defense
against microbes, germs, harmful bacteria and viruses,
such as the swine flu virus, is to keep the body
alkaline by eating an alkaline diet and drinking alkaline water.

Januvia Linked to Pacreatitis!

2009-09-25T13:12:00.000-07:00

Sitagliptin (marketed as Januvia and Janumet) - acute pancreatitis

Audience: Diabetes healthcare professionals, patients

[Posted 09/25/2009] FDA notified healthcare professionals and patients of revisions to the prescribing information for Januvia (sitagliptin) and Janumet (sitagliptin/metformin) to include information on reported cases of acute pancreatitis in patients using these products. Eighty-eight post-marketing cases of acute pancreatitis, including two cases of hemorrhagic or necrotizing pancreatitis in patients using sitagliptin, were reported to the Agency between October 2006 and February 2009. It is recommended that healthcare professionals monitor patients carefully for the development of pancreatitis after initiation or dose increases of sitagliptin or sitagliptin/metformin. Sitagliptin has not been studied in patients with a history of pancreatitis. Therefore, it is not known whether these patients are at an increased risk for developing pancreatitis and the medication should be used with caution and with appropriate monitoring in patients with a history of pancreatitis. Considerations for healthcare professionals, information for patients, and a Data Summary are provided.

Use of Ionized Water to Treat Hypertension

2009-09-24T19:14:00.000-07:00

Use of Ionized water to treat high blood pressure.

Prof. Kuninaka Hironage, Head of Kuninaka Hospital, Japan

"Damage to the blood vessels lead to the deposition of cholesterol in the blood vessels, which in turn constrict the blood flow, cause high blood pressure.

In accordance with the theory of Professor Gato of Kyushu University on Vitamin K (because vitamin K enables the blood calcium to increase ), or the consumption of more antioxidant water, the effectiveness of the increase in the calcium in high blood pressure is most significant. The consumption of alkaline antioxidant water for a period of 2 to 3 months, I have observed the blood pressure slowly drop, due to the water's solvent ability, which dissolves the cholesterol in the blood vessels."

The Japanese have been using Ionized Alkaline Water in doctor's offices and hospitals to treat and cure a variety of chronic diseases the West has no cure for, including hypertension, diabetes and cancer for the last two decades.

The Underlying Cause of All Cancers!

2009-09-21T12:51:00.000-07:00

The Prime Cause and Prevention of Cancer
Dr. Otto Warburg ( Winner of the Nobel Prize, 1933 for discovery that cancer cannot live in an alkaline environment)

Lecture delivered to Nobel Laureates on June 30, 1966
at Lindau, Lake Constance, Germany

There are prime and secondary causes of diseases. For example, the prime cause of the plague is the plague bacillus, but secondary causes of the plague are filth, rats, and the fleas that transfer the plague bacillus from rats to man. By the prime cause of a disease, I mean one that is found in every case of the disease.

Cancer, above all other diseases, has countless secondary causes. Almost anything can cause cancer. But, even for cancer, there is only one prime cause. The prime cause of cancer is the replacement of the respiration of oxygen (oxidation of sugar) in normal body cells by fermentation of sugar.

All normal body cells meet their energy needs by respiration of oxygen, whereas cancer cells meet their energy needs in great part by fermentation. All normal body cells are aerobics, whereas all cancer cells are partialy aerobics. From the standpoint of the physics and chemistry of life this difference between normal and cancer cells is so great that one can scarcely picture a greater difference. Oxygen gas, the donor of energy in plants and animals, is dethroned in the cancer cells and replaced by the energy yielding reaction of the lowest living forms, namely the fermentation of sugar.

In every case, during the cancer development, the oxygen level of the cell always falls, fermentation appears, and the highly differentiated cells are transformed into fermenting anaerobes, which have lost all their body functions and retain only the now useless property of growth and replication. Thus, when respiration disappears, life does not disappear, but the meaning of life disappears, and what remains are growing machines that destroy the body in which they grow.

It is indisputable that all cancer could be prevented if the respiration of body cells were kept intact.

Nobody today can say that one does not know what the prime cause of cancer is. On the contrary, there is no disease whose prime cause is better known, so that today ignorance is no longer an excuse for avoiding measures for prevention.

That the prevention of cancer will come there is no doubt. But how long prevention will be avoided depends on how long the prophets of agnosticism will succeed in inhibiting the application of scientific knowledge in the cancer field. In the meantime, millions of men and women must die of cancer unnecessarily.
*************************************************************************************
Let's see, he won the Nobel Prize in 1933 (76 years ago) for discovering that cancer cells could only live in an acidic environment? This lecture is from 1966, (43 years ago) and in the mean time, the Medical Maffia could not use this breathtaking knowledge to prevent and cure cancer? GIVE ME A BREAK!

However, Alternative Health Professionals do not have the same Predatory motivations for keeping this information secret.

We now know and have proven that the conditions neccessary for the growth and proliferation of cancer occur when the body become over acidic a condition that is marked by the reduction in oxygen in the cells.

When the cells lack sufficient oxygen to support aerobic respiration, they can; perhaps with damage from free radicals, become cancerous. Consequently, when someone has cancer, their cells lack oxygen as they are acidic.

Eliminating acidosis (over acidity) means the cancer can no longer live. In fact we know that the cancer cells become dormant at Ph 7.4 (alkaline)

Animal nutrition and acid-base balance.

Institute of Animal Nutrition, University of Zürich, Switzerland. jriond@vetphys.unizh.ch

In domestic animals, acid-base balance may be influenced by nutrition.

The major research effort in this area has been made on the prevention of hypocalcemic postparturient paresis in dairy cows.

This disorder is caused by the sudden increase of calcium secretion into the colostrum. The manipulation of the dietary cation-anion difference makes it possible to maintain the cows in metabolic acidosis during the critical period that precedes calving, presumably via a mechanism that involves the strong ion difference in the extracellular fluid. As a consequence the mobilization of calcium is enhanced and the incidence of the disorder is decreased.

Conversely, a dietary induced metabolic alkalosis leads to a more severe degree of hypocalcemia and the incidence of the disease is increased.

The underlying mechanisms of the prevention are only partially understood. Nevertheless, this preventive method is already widely applied in practice.

Nutrition effects on acid-base balance also influence growth and food intake in higher vertebrates and fish. As a consequence, the incidence of developmental orthopedic diseases in fast-growing domestic animal species may be affected.

Also, the bone mineral content of athletic horses may be influenced by dietary induced modification of the acid-base status. The mineral loss due to metabolic acidosis may lead to an increase in the incidence of stress fractures. This overview should give insight into relevant aspects of nutrition and acid-base balance in domestic animal species.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
In other words, they have successfully manipulated disease by addressing the Ph of the "extracellular fluid" blood, via nutrition. It is obvious the disease can be prevented and cured by adjusting the Ph level of the blood.

The same is true for most human chronic diseases. A low blood Ph, (acidic) is essential for pathogens to grow and thrive. People afflicted with such diseases generally test for a low blood Ph.

In 1933, Dr Otto Warburg was awarded the Nobel Prize for his discovery that cancer cells can only live in an acidic (low Ph) environment. In fact, they become dormant at a normal blood Ph (7.4)!

In addition, cells struggling to survive in an acidic environment give rise to so-called free radicals. Free radicals are waste products produced by chemical reactions. They are extremely dangerous to the body. They attack and disable or destroy healthy cells throughout the body giving rise to the many disorders and illnesses that afflict mankind.

Therefore, if you maintain the proper Ph level in your blood, it will go a long way to preventing, controlling and curing disease.

To learn what more progressive and enlightened medical professionals have to say about Ph balance, free radicals and their influence on human disease, read these reports.

Prilosec, Nexium, etc Actually Cause Acid Reflux, GERD, etc!

When will you accept the truth about prescription drugs?

Dr Joseph Mercola, "If you have heartburn, acid reflux, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease or any acid-related condition, chances are very high that you’ve been offered a prescription for a proton pump inhibitor (PPI)

PPIs like Prilosec, Nexium and Prevacid are among the most commonly prescribed drugs in the world, and their use for treating acid-related symptoms is increasing rapidly.

But these drugs are not only vastly overused … they’re very dangerous as well.

To start, they actually CAUSE the very type of symptoms that they’re intended to prevent if you stop taking them!"

The True Cause of Heart Disease and How to Cure It!

2009-09-07T04:01:00.000-07:00

For decades you have been told that a fatty diet, resulting in high cholesterol, is the culprit for heart disease.

Did you know that there is no scientific data to support this theory? “In spite of the fact that there was no initial evidence to support the low-fat theory in the first place, the diet continues to be the focus of the government, the medical establishment, and almost every food manufacturer in this country.

Why? Profit for everyone except the consumer soon to be heart patient collectively putting Billions of dollars into the covers of the Medical Mafia!

Study after study in the medical journals show that the accepted link between dietary cholesterol and heart disease is false!

So if cholesterol is not the culprit, what is the primary cause of heart disease? The answer is simple: Oxidation of the artery walls by free radicals, also known as inflammation.

Contrary to popular belief, heart disease is not caused by a build-up of cholesterol (or plaque) inside the arteries. It is caused by inflammation within the arterial wall that occurs as a result of the body's natural defense against oxidized LDL cholesterol.

LDL cholesterol provides an important and necessary function in the body. It only becomes a problem when it is damaged through oxidation and deposited in the wall of your arteries by your own body's defense mechanisms.

In a nutshell, this is the process that causes heart disease:

Heart disease begins when abnormal LDL cholesterol, transformed by high blood sugar (acidosis) and/or oxidation moves into the arterial wall.

Then the immune system in response to the inflamation, causes the arterial wall to bring in the circulating white blood cells, which in turn enter into the arterial wall.

The white blood cells do their job and consume the abnormal LDL cholesterol. These white blood cells become overloaded with abnormal LDL cholesterol and become 'foam cells'. A collection of these foam cells form a fatty streak in the arterial wall.

As the artery tries to heal itself, smooth muscle migrates to cover the plaque, forming a fibrous cap around the fatty streak. Continued inflammation causes the fibrous cap to weaken, and eventually rupture, causing a heart attack.

The process of heart disease begins in our teenage years and slowly worsens over time. By reversing the oxidative process and decreasing inflammation, we can effectively slow down, and even reverse, the progression of heart disease in your body!

This is best accomplished by a combination of:

An Alkaline Diet
Proper Exercise
Certain Antioxidant Nutritional Supplements
Heart Supporting Herbs
Meditation/Prayer
Iodized Antioxidant Water

Of these measures, the administration of the Ionized Antioxidant Water is the most acute. It immediately acts to eliminate the harmful acids from the blood caused by chronic ingestion of acidic food and excess blood sugar.

Most importantly it floods the body with an avalanche of free radical fighting antioxidants.

It reinforces and supports the body's key antioxidants which protect the walls of the cardiovascular system from oxidation/inflammation by free radicals. Some of these antioxidants such as Vitamin E (tocotrienols) can actually remove the plaque buildup from the walls of the blood vessels, dramatically reducing the chance of a heart attack or stroke.

Subsequently, the rest of the regimen can be implemented as soon as feasible.

Another Antioxidant Beats Cancer!

2009-09-06T10:56:00.000-07:00

Dr Alan Spreen,

CoQ10 is the one supplement I take every day, without fail.

New evidence of an even greater benefit is pouring in. And over the next couple of weeks, I’ll tell you about some of the amazing discoveries happening in CoQ10 research.

CoQ10 is a powerful cancer fighter.

Researchers in Tokyo gave rats a carcinogen that promotes colon cancer. The rats were divided into three groups. One group was fed a regular diet. The second group got a low dose of CoQ10. The third got a medium dose.

The results were amazing.

Both of the groups that received CoQ10 had reductions in abnormal crypts (an early sign of colon cancer) of up to 77%. Ultimately, the results of this study suggested that CoQ10 held cancer in check even when exposed to this carcinogen.1

Another study done at the University of Texas at Austin documented 10 cases of cancer patients who unexpectedly survived when treated with CoQ10.2

It works by blocking the free radicals that can ultimately damage the DNA in your cells. It also helps re-energize the immune system cells that get suppressed by cancer. It restores their ability to fight back and attack the cancer cells.

Researchers in Denmark studied a group of breast cancer patients. They gave them CoQ10, plus a combination of other antioxidants and essential-fatty acids. The result?

The entire group had a partial remission of the cancer. But here’s where things get very interesting…

Two of the patients received larger doses of CoQ10 (390 mg). Their tumors disappeared.

Here’s what the researchers said regarding one of the patients:

“After three months, the patient was in excellent clinical condition and there was no residual tumor tissue.”3

Remarkable isn’t it?

Yet CoQ10 is one of the most overlooked nutrients. The government doesn’t even have a recommended daily intake for it. And in my practice, I’ve found that most of my new patients are deficient.

The only natural source of CoQ10 is red meat, especially organ meat. But today’s commercially-raised, grain-fed beef is a poor source.

Even worse, many popular drugs – especially cholesterol-lowering drugs like statins – cause your levels of CoQ10 to plunge.

I recommend getting 400 mg of regular CoQ10 daily.

Dr Alan Spreen
_____________________________________________________________________________________

Note, most people, as Dr Spreen says, are deficient in antioxidants. As Dr Lester Packer, the Dean of Antioxidant Experts says, "He who has the most antioxidants in his body will live the longest healthiest life!"

There is help. The Kangen Ionized Alkalizing Machine, recognized as a Medical Device by the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare, converts ordinary tap water into the most powerful antioxidant available!

What this water does is to immediately double or triple the effective amount of antioxidants in your body because it has the ability to regenerate your body's other antioxidants.

It is not well known, but when an antioxidant smashes (medical term!) a free radical, it loses its antioxidant power, even becoming a dangerous free radical itself in some cases.

For instance, Alpha Lipoic Acid or Glutathione, two lesser known antioxidants and in some cases vitamins C and E have to regenerate or rejuvenate the spent antioxidant.

However, Kangen Water has a large supply of free electrons that can rejuvenate the body's other antioxidants, thereby greatly increasing the net amount available to the body resulting in a very strong immune system and protection against radical damage to organs and structures of the body.

Once free radicals have been quelched, the body's Ph or acid alkaline balance can be addressed. In most of us, our blood's Ph balance has been put out of whack because of our diet and stress which causes it to become too acid. Excess acidity (acidosis) allows disease producing microbes and viruses to flourish, causing disease, which in turn produces more free radicals!

Once the body's Ph balance is restored and acidosis eliminated and free radicals vanquished, your body will heal itself as nature designed it to.

Alpha-lipoic acid (or lipoic acid) is the body's master anti-oxidant, able to neutralize harmful chemicals known as free radicals. Free radicals are at the root of many, many seemingly disparate diseases, such as high blood pressure, psychological and brain disorders and diabetic neuropathy.

It is naturally produced in the body and found in small amounts in foods such as liver and spinach. assisting in the conversion of glucose to energy.

It can fight free radicals that operate in both water and fat, as opposed to the anti-oxidants vitamin E (which works only in fat) and vitamin C (which works only in water). It also "stands in" for these antioxidants when they are unavailable. It also regenerates these other anti-oxidants after they have neutralized free radicals.

What It Does:

Diabetes:
As an oral supplement alpha-lipoic acid has been used to reduce symptoms of diabetic neuropathy in diabetes patients in Europe for 2 decades.

It treats and alleviates symptoms such as burning, pain, numbness, and prickling of the feet and legs. The numbness is especially serious as it can allow sores and wounds to fester without the knowledge of the patient, necessitating amputation when gangrene sets in.

There is evidence that alpha-lipoic acid supplements may also help diabetic patients in many areas including helping convert sugar to glycogen. It also lessens damage to the heart, kidneys and small blood vessel which also affects the onset of diabetic retinopathy which has made diabetes the leading cause of blindness.

Alpha-lipoic acid may also improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes, but it doesn't seem to lower glycosylated hemoglobin (HgbA1c) levels.

Other Conditions:
Alpha-lipoic acid may be helpful in treating burning mouth syndrome (BMS), a condition characterized by unexplained scalding sensations in the mouth. Preliminary studies suggest that it might also help prevent or treat a myriad of conditions including age-related hearing loss, glaucoma, cancer, and cataracts. Its antioxidant effects might provide protection in cerebral ischemia, other causes of damage to brain or neural tissue, mitochondrial dysfunction, liver disease, aminoglycoside-induced cochlear damage, heavy metal and chemical poisoning and radiation exposure. Alpha-lipoic acid inhibits replication of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in vitro and, in AIDS patients, might improve blood antioxidant status and increase T-helper lymphocytes and T-helper to T-helper suppressor cell ratio.

What is Diabetic Neuropathy?

2009-09-04T09:19:00.000-07:00

Diabetic neuropathy (DN)is a peripheral nerve disorder which disproportionately afflicts diabetics. It is one of the many serious "Complications" of diabetes and often leads to amputation of limbs.

The symptoms of diabetic neuropathy are often slight at first. In fact,
some mild cases may go unnoticed for a long time.

Numbness, pain or tingling in the feet or legs may, after several years, lead to weakness in the muscles of the feet. Occasionally, diabetic neuropathy can flare
up suddenly and affect specific nerves so that an affected individual
will develop double vision, drooping eyelids and weakness and atrophy
of the thigh muscles.

Nerve damage caused by diabetes generally occurs over a period of years and may lead to problems with the digestive tract and sexual organs, which can cause indigestion, diarrhea or constipation, dizziness, bladder infections and impotence.

The loss of sensation in the feet may increase the possibility for foot injuries to go unnoticed and develop into ulcers or lesions that become infected, which then leads to amputations of feet and legs.

Diabetic neuropathy cannot be avoided strictly by controlling blood sugar, contrary to conventional wisdom. Although blood sugar control helps, it cannot stop the disease.

Free radicals, waste products of the body's metabolism, poor diet, especially fried foods; ingested from the environment, especially cigarette smoke; attack the lipid or fat sheath surrounding nerve fibers. This is analagous to damaging the insulation on an electrical wire, causing short circuits and interfering with the proper functioning of the system, in this case, the body's nervous system.

In the US, treatment is normally limited to orally administered diabetes drugs, which as mentioned before does Not stop the onset or progression of diabetic neuropathy.

In Germany and other parts of Europe, DN has been treated successfully with a powerful antioxidant, Alpha Lipoic Acid. Alpha Lipoic Acid stops free radicals
from damaging the nerve coverings.

You can prevent DN by eating a diet rich in antioxidants, an alkalizing diet as well as taking antioxidant supplements, including alpha lipoic acid.

For cases of DN that have progressed to the point where amputations are needed, the Japanese have pioneered a truly remarkably effective treatment that can save diabetics limbs, even if they have become gangrenous!
