 Cancer industry desperately needs mammogram screenings to recruit patients and generate repeat businessBy Mike Adams, November 19 2009 (NaturalNews) Any time you threaten to take away repeat customer from the businesses that make up the cancer industry, you're in for a political fight.

One in Three Cancers Diagnosed with Free Mammogram Screening Is an "Overdiagnosis"By David Gutierrez, November 18 2009 (NaturalNews) In countries with public breast cancer screening programs, one in every three diagnosed with invasive breast cancers would never have produced symptoms in a patient before she died of other causes, a new study has revealed.
"Screening for cancer may lead to earlier detection of lethal cancers but also detects harmless ones that will not cause death or symptoms," wrote the researchers, from the Nordic Cochrane Center in Denmark, in the British Medical Journal.
"The detection of...
Men can slash risk of highly lethal prostate cancer naturallyBy S. L. Baker, November 18 2009 (NaturalNews) As NaturalNews previously reported, low level prostate cancer is often over-diagnosed, over-treated and non-lethal (http://www.naturalnews.com/027193_cancer_Prostate_prostate_cancer.html). However, there's no denying that high-grade prostate cancer, although relatively rare, is dangerous and can kill. This form of prostate cancer is extraordinarily aggressive, growing very fast and spreading into surrounding areas such as lymph nodes and bones. High-grade prostate cancer is hard to...

Baker, November 17 2009 (NaturalNews) There's nothing new about the fact prescription drugs come loaded with possible side effects ranging from the mild to the life-threatening. However, exactly what those side effects are isn't always clear until widely taken medications have been used for years on end.

H1N1 "super flu" plague in Ukraine sparks concern, conspiracy theories about originsBy Mike Adams, November 16 2009 (NaturalNews) Here's what we know with some degree of certainty about the H1N1 virus in Ukraine right now: nearly 300 people have died from the viral strain, and over 65,000 people have been hospitalized (the actual numbers are increasing by the hour). The virus appears to be either a highly aggressive mutation of the globally-circulating H1N1 strain, or a combination of three different influenza strains now circulating in Ukraine. Some observers suspect this new "super flu" might be labeled viral...

You don't need your appendix, right? Wrong!By S. L. Baker, November 16 2009 (NaturalNews) The appendix is a small, tube-like organ located in the lower right area of the abdomen and attached to the first part of the colon. Researchers have theorized this seemingly superfluous bit of our internal body is simply a remnant of the time when early humans ate a huge amount of plant matter. The appendix, the theory goes, once helped with fermentation and digestion of all that roughage ancient hominids consumed. But when it comes to modern-day humans, mainstream medicine says the...

Swine Flu Deception and Disinformation ExposedBy Paul Fassa, November 19 2009 (NewsTarget) There has been a flurry of contradictory swine flu events reported here and from Ukraine this early fall.

CBS's state by state survey discovered that less than 5 percent of flu cases reported in most American states were confirmed as H1N1.
In most states less than half the reported cases were not even a flu of any type! The CDC and WHO conveniently canceled...
Do Not be Fooled: Observations Find Full Fat Leads to Thinness, Not Fatness (Opinion)By Frank Mangano, November 19 2009 (NewsTarget) Health experts often point to the fact that it`s not excess fat that leads to obesity, it`s excess calories. The latest example of this can be found with milk. According to researchers from Sahlgrenska Academy, the research arm of Sahlgrenska University Hospital based in Sweden, 8-year-olds that drank full-fat milk were more likely to have a lower body weight than children who rarely drank milk. And not just by a little, but by an average of nine pounds!

How to Avoid the Flu (Opinion)By Hesh Goldstein, November 19 2009 (NewsTarget) First and foremost we must focus on what we can do to avoid getting the flu. Before getting into that, an interesting question arises with regard to this particular flu. How does a flu jump from a bird to a pig to a human? It doesn`t, unless it has help.
It seems that Dr. Bill Deagle, a Virologist, was approached by the CIA several years ago to help create a flu that would decimate the population. Instead of helping them, he helped by turning whistleblower just like Dr. David Graham...

Huff, November 18 2009 (NaturalNews) Dr. Otis Brawley, chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society, recently participated in an interview with the New York Times concerning a Journal of the American Medical Association analysis of breast and prostate cancer screening.

Probiotics reduce food allergies, skin reactionsBy Paul Louis, November 18 2009 (Natural News) Most health conscious people know of the positive effects on digestion from using probiotic supplements. Many take probiotic supplements after using antibiotics to replace the good intestinal flora bacteria indiscriminately killed by antibiotic use.

Choose Naturally Colored Cotton By Natalie June, November 18 2009 (NewsTarget) Most people think that cotton only comes in the color white and then needs to be dyed, but in reality cotton can be grown in a variety of colors including tan, green, yellow, red, and brown.
Colored cotton agriculture began in Indo-Pakistan, Egypt, and Peru around 2700 B.C. It was the Industrial Revolution and the cotton gin that changed things. Short-fibered colored cotton was too difficult to spin when compared to long-fiber all white cotton. In the American South, slaves were forbidden...
Vaccines and Pregnancy Do Not MixBy Paul Fassa, November 17 2009 (NewsTarget) From an internet forum: "I got both vaccines [seasonal and swine flu] on Thursday. I was 9 weeks pregnant. I miscarried on Sunday. I was told by several doctors to get these vaccines. Now I wish I followed my gut feeling and not get them at ALL!" This is not an isolated case.
Here's another report: "I feel like I had a healthy baby and I caused this by getting the H1N1 vaccine. My doctors pushed it. I researched online and there have been many miscarriages after the H1N1 vaccine but...
Not-So-Surprising Finding: Study Links HFCS to HypertensionBy Frank Mangano, November 17 2009 (NewsTarget) Yet another study is linking the consumption of high fructose corn syrup to poor health, this time in the form of increased risk for hypertension. Quick, someone alert the Corn Refiners Association so they can issue a denial!
You really got to hand it to the Corn Refiners Association; they don't take negative publicity lightly. The moment a study is published that even vaguely brandishes high fructose corn syrup as adversely affecting health, they throw out a press release faster...
Genetically engineered hormones used by dairy industry promote cancerBy E. Huff, November 17 2009 (NaturalNews) An industry report claiming that the genetically-engineered hormone Recombinant Bovine Somatotropin (rBST) is safe has received criticism from the Cancer Prevention Coalition (CPC) for its dubious findings. Funded by producers of rBST, the report was conducted entirely by industry-paid consultants rather than by independent, credible scientists, indicating it is fallacious.
Dr. Samuel S. Epstein, chairman of the CPC, lambasted the report for failing to recognize the grave, scientifically...
Eggplant Cures Skin CancerBy Melanie Grimes, November 17 2009 (NewsTarget) An ingredient in common eggplant has been shown to cure cancer.

Why There is an Obesity Epidemic (Opinion)By Hesh Goldstein, November 16 2009 (NewsTarget) The number of extremely obese adults has quadrupled since the 1980`s to about 4 million. That works out to about 1 in every 50 adults. The original theory was that extreme obesity was a rare condition; this has changed to the realization that overeating and under-activity is the single most contributing factor to obesity. Unfortunately, along with obesity come diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, arthritis, and a decreased life span.
