Also, several beneficial effects from aloe ingestion on age-related disease were found: group 2 and 3 showed a lower incidence of atrial thrombosis than group 1. Furthermore, group 2 showed a significantly lower incidence of fatal chronic nephropathy and occurrence of multiple causes of death compared to the control group. All groups ingesting aloe showed a slightly lower incidence of fatal leukemia. Moreover, no adverse, toxic effects were found with the ingestion of aloe vera.
"Nephropathy" simply means kidney disorders, by the way. |

Which group do you want to belong to? Ninety-eight percent of the U.S. population is currently in group #3. Some unknown percentage of those people may ultimately end up in group #2. The smart people will deliberately put themselves in group #1. I hope you'll join me in group #1. |

The control group was given information on diet and strategies for reducing the risk of fractures and falls
You have to remember that the logic of this study says that calcium and vitamin D supplements are useless because there was no difference in the number of fractures between the study group and the control group. But if you could find another way to reduce fractures in the control group, then you could effectively make the supplements in the study group appear useless. |

It's sort of like testing aspirin against placebo by giving one group aspirin, giving the other group a placebo, and telling both groups they can take all the aspirin they want on their own. It doesn't take a medical genius to figure out that the study design is seriously flawed (what idiot comes up with these studies, anyway?).
So the positive results of the calcium group were actually suppressed by the fact that the control group was taking calcium, too. In reality, the reduction in bone fractures might have been something closer to 50% -- a true "medical miracle" by any standard. |

The research team randomly assigned participants to hydrotherapy classes, Tai Chi classes or a waiting group. The classes, one hour in length, were offered two times per week.
After 12 weeks, both groups showed significant improvements on scores measuring pain and physical function. At 24 weeks, researchers found that the improvements had been sustained, with the greatest improvement measured in the hydrotherapy group. |

Over the course of four years, women in the calcium/vitamin D3 group experienced a 60 percent decrease in their cancer risk than the group taking placebos.
On the premise that some women entered the study with undiagnosed cancers, researchers then eliminated the first-year results and looked at the last three years of the study. When they did that, the results became even more dramatic with the calcium/vitamin D3 group showing a startling 77 percent cancer-risk reduction. |
| One group of women was given calcium (around 1500 mg daily) and vitamin D (1100 IU daily) while another group was given placebo. Over four year, the group receiving the calcium and vitamin D supplements showed a 60 percent decrease in cancers. Considering just the last three years of the study reveals an impressive 77 percent reduction in cancer due to supplementation. (The full press release of this study is included below. It provides more details about the findings.)
Note that these astonishing effects were achieved on what many nutritionists consider to be a low dose of vitamin D. |
| The study involved 1,179 healthy women from rural Nebraska. One group of women was given calcium (around 1500 mg daily) and vitamin D (1100 IU daily) while another group was given placebo. Over four year, the group receiving the calcium and vitamin D supplements showed a 60 percent decrease in cancers. Considering just the last three years of the study reveals an impressive 77 percent reduction in cancer due to supplementation. (The full press release of this study is included below.

Then there is another group, which is, of course, a smaller group that we consider hardcore nutrition people. They do not care if it is green or if it comes from micro-algae. They want the best nutrition and they are willing to drink it now. I know we are all in that group but not everybody is. Are there ways to make this more palatable to other consumers?
Dr. Liers: Yes, after they get past the looks of it. Certainly putting it in fruit smoothies is wonderful. We put a little banana in it or you can put some frozen berries. Eat it with your toast. |

When hunting and gathering groups grew beyond the capacity of their territory to support them, parr of the group would split off and move to new territory. Once there was no more productive territory to colonize, growing populations developed more intensive (and time-consuming) ways to extract a living from their environment. Such pressures favored groups that could produce food themselves to get more out of the land. In this view, agriculture can be undetstood as a natural behavioral response to increasing population. |

Results of WHI: The Bad
There was a 29% increase in coronary heart disease in the Prempro?group.
Results of WHI: The Ugly
A 41%o increase in stroke and a remarkable 2,100%) increase in pulmonary embolism (i.e., lung blood clots) was found in the treated (i.e., Prempro? group. In addition the Prempro?group had a 26% increased risk of breast cancer.
The Implications of WHI
The WHI was supposed to be an 8.5-year study. However, the research was stopped early, at 5. |

Scodari had previously been the group's secretary.) Got that?
Pfizer CEO Jeffrey Kindler and executives from pharma heavies Abbott Laboratories, Schering-Plough, Eli Lilly and Wyeth will all serve on BIO's board of directors, according to a press release the group put out today. Meanwhile, the chairman of PhRMA, the pharmaceutical industry's own trade group, is Amgen chief Kevin Sharer...

| It contains food items from the meat group, the grain group, the fruit group and even the dairy group. But yet, there is absolutely nothing in that meal that is good for you. Not a single thing. In fact, that's the breakfast of chronic disease and obesity. A person who eats that sort of breakfast on a daily basis can look forward to being diagnosed with a variety of chronic diseases in the years ahead.
Traditional American meals simply aren't healthy
So there's no real agreement on what a balanced meal is and even when there is some agreement, those meals aren't balanced at all. |

What's unique about these women is that one group had blocked fallopian tubes, and the other group had progesterone deficiency. The only long-term health effect the women with blocked tubes had was the inability to get pregnant. But more than 20 years later, the group with progesterone deficiency had tenfold more cancer.
How could this be? It's very simple: progesterone functions to inhibit cells from replicating. Progesterone increases the activity of a gene called P53, which protects us from cancer. |

Specifically, the study shows (reprinted from the abstract): a) a significant dose-related increase of malignant tumor-bearing animals in males, in particular in the group treated at 2000 ppm; b) a significant increase of the incidence in lymphomas/leukemias in males treated at 2000 ppm and a significant dose-related increase of the incidence of lymphomas/leukemias in females, in particular in the group treated at 2000 ppm; c) a significant dose-related increase of the incidence of mammary cancer in females, in particular in the group treated at 2000 ppm. Conclusions. |
