 I have found natural hormones to be a great benefit and often a cure for many conditions including chronic fatigue syndrome, PMS, endometriosis, infertility, headaches and migraine headaches, recurrent infections, fibromyalgia, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's, and other autoimmune disorders. It is rare for patients with any of the above conditions not to show significant improvement in their conditions after after balancing the hormonal system with natural, bioidentical hormones. |

 This preliminary investigation has been conducted with no control group, and published reports have provided only sketchy details about the conditions of most of the women being studied. Some of the patients were given conventional treatments along with CoQio. Therefore, CoQio remains unproven as a cancer treatment.
Fiber (page 512)
Although fiber is available in supplement form (such as Metamucil), most fiber consumption results from eating food. Preliminary evidence suggests that high fiber consumption may reduce the risk of breast cancer. |

 Atrocious conditions for chickens
Like pigs, chickens grow up in a similar state of disarray, forced to live through nearly intolerable conditions. Approximately six billion "broiler" chickens are produced and sold each year by the factory farmer to sources like supermarkets and fast food chicken restaurants. As many as 60% of supermarket chickens are infected with Salmonella enteritis. Another pathogen that can be spread from chickens to humans is Campylobacter, which can cause infection, illness or death. |

| Obviously, this work cannot be wrought by turning back, or away, from what has been accomplished by the modern revolution; for the problem is nothing if not that of rendering the modern world spiritually significant—or rather (phrasing the same principle the other way round) nothing if not that of making it possible for men and women to come to full human maturity through the conditions of contemporary life. Indeed, these conditions themselves are what have rendered the ancient formulae ineffective, misleading, and even pernicious. |

| It is rare for patients with any of the above conditions not to show significant improvement in their conditions after after balancing the hormonal system with natural, bioidentical hormones. I am continually amazed at how many chronic diseases can be halted and, many times, cured through the use of natural, bioidentical hormones.

| Progesterone is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of conditions including: fibrocystic breast disease, menopausal symptoms, PMS, and endometriosis. It has also been shown to:
1. Function as a natural antidepressant
2. Facilitate thyroid function
3. Improve blood sugar
4. Improve cell oxygenation
5. Function as a natural diuretic
Unlike bioidentical progesterone, Provera?does not have any of these five positive attributes as listed for progesterone. Furthermore, Provera?does not treat any of the conditions mentioned above. When should Provera?ever be used? |
| Natural hormones can improve well-being, slow aging, and reverse many chronic conditions. After taking natural hormones, my older patients constantly proclaim that they feel like they did when they were in their 20's. I have found natural hormones to be a great benefit and often a cure for many conditions including chronic fatigue syndrome, PMS, endometriosis, infertility, headaches and migraine headaches, recurrent infections, fibromyalgia, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's, and other autoimmune disorders. |

| However, two double-blind studies have shown that supplementation with isolated synthetic beta-carotene does not reduce the risk of lung cancer (page 298) and may even increase that risk in smokers.7'8 This finding suggests that foods that are high in carorenoids may protect against cancer in humans for reasons unrelated to their carotenoid content, that synthetic beta-carotene may have different effects from natural beta-carotene (which is somewhat structurally distinct), or that carotenoids may need to be taken together or with supportive antioxidants (e.g. |

How much is usually taken?
Based upon preliminary studies it is estimated that the minimum amount required for the prevention of breast cancer (page 65) is 300 to 400 mg daily.26
Are there any side effects or interactions?
No side effects from indole-3-carbinol have been reported.
INOSINE
How much is usually taken?
Although a common amount of inosine taken by athletes is 5,000—6,000 mg per day, little scientific evidence supports the use of this supplement in any amount.

| In one report, older people with type 2 diabetes who drank daily, but moderately, had a dramatically lower incidence of deaths from heart disease (page 98) compared with nondrinkers.92 This outcome is not surprising since moderate alcohol intake is associated with protection from heart disease in most other reports. This finding may be of particular importance because heart disease is the leading killer of people with diabetes. In another study, non-drinkers had a higher incidence of type 2 diabetes than did moderate drinkers. |

Active constituents
Echinacea is thought to support the immune system
(page 255) by activating white blood cells.1 Three major groups of constituents may work together to increase the production and activity of white blood cells (lymphocytes and macrophages), including alky-lamides/polyacetylenes, caffeic acid derivatives, and polysaccharides. More studies are needed to determine if and how echinacea stimulates the immune system in humans. |

 Just like the little man in my daydream indicated, Agrimony is used to heal many conditions including inflammatory eye problems and liver conditions such as cirrhosis, gallstones, gout, arthritis, ulcers, colitis, and diarrhea. It serves as a digestive tonic as well as an astringent, which stems all manner of excessive bleeding and aids in the healing of wounds. It makes an excellent gargle for sore throat and inflamed gums. |

| Conditions inside animal factory farms
To understand the conditions present in these factory farms, you must first examine what the animals in these factory farms are eating. The factory farmer has redefined what constitutes animal feed in a 'bottom line' effort to save money. They seem to care little about the health or the happiness of the animal, and instead treat it like a product. The low quality standards placed on animal feed by these "farmers" prove that little consideration is being taken towards the animal or the consumer. |

 HHS Secretary Mike Leavitt, of course, has no interest in allowing free market conditions to threaten Big Pharma profits, thus the outcome of this amendment is obvious: It effectively overturns the Dorgan amendment that would have allowed Americans to save billions of dollars on prescription drugs by purchasing them from outside the United States under "free market" conditions.
Fifteen Democratic senators voted in favor of this amendment to defend Big Pharma's monopoly. |

 And then there's the fraudulent practice of off-label prescribing, too, which means that a drug approved for ANY condition can be legally prescribed for ALL conditions, regardless of whether it has undergone a single test for those conditions. Example: A drug approved for migraine headaches can be legally prescribed for heart disease, even if it hasn't undergone a single clinical trial for heart disease. So much for the grand claims of "evidence-based medicine. |

 Gynecological Problems
Menstruation problems and complications in childbirth are very common medical conditions in Southern Ecuador. Sixteen plants were employed to treat these disorders, with six species used to cure vaginal infections, and four species each for the treatment of childbirth complications and menstrual regulation.
Heart and Circulatory System
The main application for circulatory system problems was the treatment of heart pain. Twelve species were used for the treatment of heart conditions, including heart attacks and heart pain. |
| Eighty-five different medicinal conditions were recorded. Most plants were used for the treatment of multiple ailments. The large variety of applications was grouped into 37 main categories.

Internal Organs
The highest number of species was used to treat internal organ and digestive system disorders (101, 21% of all conditions treated). |
| The same species might be used for various medical conditions. In addition, the same medical condition (e.g., heart problems) might be treated using different plant parts and/ or involving different applications, e.g., topical and oral. In the following the number of applications and the number of species used are given to emphasize the importance of the treatment of specific conditions. The highest number of species (39, 18.1%) was used for the treatment of "magical" (psychosomatic) ailments, with 59 applications (12.4% of all plant uses). |

 What is the FDA's view of this issue, where doctors are prescribing drugs for health conditions that they've never been tested for? No problem! The FDA is perfectly fine with it. There's no need to test the drugs for those other conditions at all!
In other words, there is absolutely no medical evidence supporting the use of prescription drugs in the way they are often prescribed by doctors! Once you realize the truth in this statement, you will instantly understand why the entire Big Pharma / FDA system of drug approvals, drug marketing and drug prescribing is a massive medical hoax. |

| Animal studies suggest that supplementing with vitamin C (page 604) can reduce blood levels of stress-related hormones and other measures of stress.66,67,68,69 Controlled studies of athletes have shown that vitamin C supplementation (1,000 to 1,500 mg per day) can reduce stress hormone levels after intense exercise.70, 71 Surgery patients given 2,000 mg per day of vitamin C during the week before and after surgery had a more rapid return to normal of several stress-related hormones compared with patients not given vitamin C. |

 But this purely symptom-oriented approach does not eliminate the cause of the illness, and in many cases, sets the stage for even more serious conditions. Most adults living in the industrialized world, and especially those suffering a chronic illness such as heart disease, arthritis, MS, cancer, or diabetes, have hundreds if not thousands of gallstones (mainly clumps of hardened bile) blocking the bile ducts of their liver. |

PREVALENCE
Tony Soprano was not alone. Many people are afflicted with what are defined as serious emotional or mental problems.2 According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), about one in five adults— some 45 million people—suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder in any given year. Three of the leading ten causes of disability (major depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia) are mental disorders. |
| The upsurging of prescription medications is the result of several factors: the growth of insurance coverage for drugs, the aggressive marketing of drugs by pharmaceutical companies, especially after a 1997 ruling that made it much easier for drug makers to advertise directly to the consumer, and clinical guidelines that recommend greater use of drugs to treat such conditions as high cholesterol, drug use for which tripled between 1995 and 2002.7 Acute care is giving way to chronic or preventive care, for example, using drugs to manage high blood pressure. |
