"Waste" Olive Extracts Find New Use as Natural Meat PreservativeBy David Gutierrez, November 7 2009
(NaturalNews) Olive extracts derived from the wastewater of olive oil processing are rich in antioxidants that can function effectively as natural meat preservatives, according to a study conducted by researchers from Food Science Australia and Argentina's National Council for Scientific and Technical Investigation and published in the journal Food Chemistry.
"The polyphenol extract from the waste water of olive oil's pomace significantly inhibited lipid oxidation in pre-cooked ground beef and...
Vaccines for the rich! Wall Street gets H1N1 vaccine bailout while school children told to waitBy Mike Adams, November 6 2009
(NaturalNews) It seems the financial bailout isn't the only bailout happening on Wall Street these days. News has now leaked that investment firms Goldman Sachs and Citigroup both received preferential H1N1 swine flu vaccines even while local clinics that treat school children had no supply. The uproar is reminding the public just how much special treatment Wall Street banks get -- both financially and medically -- while everyday people are hung out to dry.
Not only that, but taxpayers got to...
 What's really in that burger? E.coli and chicken feces both allowed by USDABy Mike Adams, November 6 2009
(NaturalNews) There are 14 billion hamburgers consumed each year in the United States alone. The people who eat those burgers, though, have little knowledge of what's actually in them. Current USDA regulations, for example, openly allow beef contaminated with E. coli to be repackaged, cooked and sold as ready-to-eat hamburgers.
This simple fact would shock most consumers if they knew about it. People assume that beef found to be contaminated with E. coli must be thrown out or destroyed (or even...
 H1N1 vaccines too little, too late; most people already exposed and immune (opinion)By Mike Adams, November 6 2009
(NaturalNews) The Big Pharma frenzy over H1N1 vaccines has turned into a circus of hilarious medical quackery thanks to the fact that by the time the vaccines are available, most people will have already been exposed to the virus. Hence, most people will have already built up their own H1N1 antibodies, rendering the vaccine not just useless, but downright laughable.
Even with the outlandish rush to get these vaccines approved by the FDA -- a hurry that saw the complete abandonment of the principles...
Pomegranate Extracts Treat Diseases of InflammationBy David Gutierrez, November 6 2009
(NaturalNews) Emerging research continues to strengthen the evidence that pomegranate extracts can be used to treat chronic inflammation, and the diseases that go along with it.
Short-term inflammation is a normal immune response, but chronic inflammation has been linked to a number of diseases including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, dementia and autoimmune disorders. Scientists are increasingly coming to believe that pomegranate helps combat inflammation, in part due to its exceptionally...
Skip blah beige meals, go for phytonutrient rich colorful foodsBy S. L. Baker, November 6 2009
(NaturalNews) Phenolics. Flavonoids. Carotenoids. Quercetin. Phloridzin. What do these scientific names have in common? They are all types of phytonutrients, also called phytochemicals, found in fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, and teas. And they may decrease the risk of not only minor illnesses like colds but also many of the major killers on the planet -- including cancer and heart disease. Scientists have only identified a few of the suspected vast number of these natural compounds in...
Potassium normalizes high blood pressureBy Mike Adams, November 6 2009
(NaturalNews) High blood pressure isn't a disease, it's just a noticeable symptom of a physiological imbalance with a biological cause. One of the most common biological causes of this symptom is a mineral deficiency.
Specifically: Potassium.
Potassium is a crucial mineral for restoring healthy blood pressure balance in your body, and when you don't have enough potassium, symptoms can start to emerge that may eventually be diagnosed and labeled as "high blood pressure."
Here, we bring you...
Watching TV Before Going to Bed Causes Chronic Health ProblemsBy David Gutierrez, November 6 2009
(NaturalNews) Television viewing before bed is a significant contributor to chronic health problems, according to a study conducted by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania and presented at the annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies.
Although most adults need at least seven to eight hours of sleep per night, as many as 40 percent of U.S. adults fail to get this much. Lack of sleep is a major contributor to chronic health problems, including obesity, heart disease...
 H1N1 vaccine shortage fabricated to create hysteria, boost demand?By Mike Adams, November 5 2009
(NaturalNews) There's a fascinating book by author Robert Cialdini called Influence - The Psychology of Persuasion. As someone who frequently writes about Big Pharma's social engineering tactics, I've read and studied many of these tactics, noting carefully how governments and Big Business use them to wage disinformation campaigns against the People.
I was recently chatting with friends on my Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/NaturalNews) when a friend named Jennifer pointed out that she...
H1N1 swine flu infects commercial swine in USA, reports USDABy Mike Adams, November 5 2009
(NaturalNews) The pork industry desperately wants you to believe "the Big Lie" about swine flu: That it can't infect pigs, and therefore it's perfectly safe to buy and eat lots and lots of pork products.
It's a merry little tale, and it would be a nice little piece of information to pass along if only it were true.
But it isn't.
H1N1 swine flu can and does infect pigs. And the safety margin for eating pork products from H1N1-infected pigs is not well known.
In fact, the USDA just confirmed...
Proposed law would requiring employers to pay workers for sick time off would promote swine flu pandemicBy Mike Adams, November 5 2009
(NaturalNews) It sounds good at first: When employers send sick workers home so they don't spread swine flu around the work environment, they must still pay those workers for the full day's work. The idea behind this bill is that many workers can't afford being sent home without pay, and therefore the employer must pay them anyway.
But apparently no one in Washington D.C. has thought about the real-world consequences of what this bill would do. If employers are forced to pay for workers whether...
Tyson Foods Fined $500,000 in Death Of Worker Who Inhaled Chicken Processing Plant FumesBy David Gutierrez, November 5 2009
(NaturalNews) Tyson Foods has been found guilty of deliberately violating worker safety laws, leading directly to the death of a worker, and has been ordered to pay $500,000 and serve one year of probation.
The punishment is the maximum penalty allowed by law.
"Federal laws require employers to undertake steps that limit exposure to dangerous substances like the gas that killed Jason Kelley," said John Cruden from the U.S. Department of Justice. "Today, Tyson Foods is paying the maximum fine...
Chinese herbs may prevent diabetes in high risk peopleBy S. L. Baker, November 5 2009
(NaturalNews) Type 2 diabetes is an international epidemic and 380 million people throughout the world are expected to develop the condition by 2025. The vast majority of the time, pre-diabetes (also called impaired glucose tolerance or IGT), which is marked by higher than normal blood sugar levels, develops before full-blown diabetes. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services estimates that about 57 million Americans -- which translates to one in four U.S. adults age 20 or older -- already...
Chromium prevents diabetes by improving insulin sensitivityBy Mike Adams, November 5 2009
(NaturalNews) Of all the trace minerals, chromium may be the most beneficial to diabetes patients. It's an insulin potentiator, so it makes the body's own insulin production go further.
If you have diabetes or blood sugar disorders, you need to know about chromium. We've assembled a large collection of quotes for you right here, but at the same time, we encourage you to check with your naturopathic physician before beginning chromium supplementation so that you can get a full review of your diet...

 Brooklyn girl winds up in hospital after being injected with H1N1 swine flu vaccine without parental permissionBy Mike Adams, November 4 2009
(NaturalNews) A six-year-old Brooklyn girl, Nikiyah Torres-Pierre, was hospitalized recently after being injected with the swine flu vaccine. The vaccination was conducted entirely without her parents' permission in an incident school nurses are calling "a mistake."
Mother Naomi Troy told the NY Daily News, "I was outraged." After receiving the swine flu injection, her daughter complained she was itching and her stomach was hurting. That's when school officials called an ambulance that rushed...
 Parents: Send this note to your school principal to protect your child from swine flu vaccinationsBy Mike Adams, November 4 2009
(NaturalNews) After reading about the forced vaccination of a Brooklyn schoolgirl who ended up in the hospital, many parents are concerned about how they might protect their own children from school-based vaccination schemes.
To help parents protect their children, I've written a letter that you may copy, modify and use as a warning to the principal of the school(s) where your own children are students. This letter will serve as a warning to the school principal that if your child is vaccinated...
Women with breast cancer have low vitamin D levels, scientists discoverBy S. L. Baker, November 4 2009
(NaturalNews) At the American Society of Clinical Oncology's Breast Cancer Symposium held in San Francisco recently, researchers from the University of Rochester Medical Center made an announcement that at first glance may seem startling -- at least it may startle people who are unaware of the preventive and healing power of nutrients. When they studied 166 women undergoing treatment for breast cancer, the scientists found the vast majority, about 70 percent, had something other than their cancer...
How magnesium prevents heart diseaseBy Mike Adams, November 4 2009
(NaturalNews) Magnesium may be the most under-rated minerals in human nutrition. It's not only pivotal in preventing heart disease, it also prevents diabetes by helping the body properly regulate sugar metabolism. There are perhaps a thousand benefits for magnesium in the human body, and yet most people are magnesium deficient!
Here, we present a fascinating collection of supporting quotes and states about magnesium that we've researched from some of the top health books ever published. Enjoy...
Consumer Goods Made With Radioactive MetalsBy David Gutierrez, November 4 2009
(NaturalNews) A lack of regulatory oversight has led to massive quantities of radioactive metal entering the U.S. raw materials supply, meaning that many consumer products may expose users to dangerous levels of radiation, a Scripps Howard News Service investigation has found.
In the past 11 years, scandals have emerged over radioactive metal in products including La-Z-Boy recliners, EKCO cheese graters, purses, tableware, fencing materials, shovel blades, elevators and airplanes. The cheese graters...
Psych Setback: New Study Demolishes Genetic Link to DepressionBy David Gutierrez, November 4 2009
(NaturalNews) A new analysis has strongly refuted a previous claim that a certain genetic mutation could predispose people toward clinical depression.
The meta-analysis, conducted by researchers from the U.S. National Institute of Mental Health and published in the Journal of the American Association, reviewed the results of 14 separate studies on a total of 14,250 people, 1,769 of whom had suffered from clinical depression, also known as major depression.

 Froot Loops cures cancer! (And other health claims breakfast cereal manufacturers wish they could make) (parody)By Mike Adams, November 3 2009
(NaturalNews) Have you heard the news? Froot Loops are a "Smart Choice" for children's health (even though they're made with 40% sugar), and Cocoa Krispies can boost your immunity! (http://www.naturalnews.com/027386_Kelloggs_food_cocoa.html)
But there's more to this story. NaturalNews contacted employees of Kellogg's, General Mills and Post to find out what future cereal health claims they might be floating. And guess what? They sent us actual box mockups that depict the new, upcoming health claims...
 Ten reasons why the FDA allows Cocoa Krispies cereal to make outrageous claims of boosting immunity (satire)By Mike Adams, November 3 2009
(NaturalNews) By now, the whole internet knows that Kellogg's is under harsh scrutiny for making ridiculous "immunity" claims for their sugary Cocoa Krispies cereal.
But did you know the real reason why the FDA continues to allow this laughable medical claim on the front of Cocoa Krispies boxes? Below, I explain the top ten reasons why this labeling hilarity is tolerated by the FDA.
#1) Because nutritional health claims carry more scientific weight when they're introduced by magical singing...
 Twenty reasons why vitamin D is better than a swine flu vaccineBy Mike Adams, November 3 2009
(NaturalNews) The news is out: Vitamin D is better than the swine flu vaccine at halting H1N1 infections. In fact, without vitamin D, chances are that a vaccine won't generate much of an immune response in the first place.
That's because vitamin D is essential for healthy, active immune function. That's just one of the reasons smart people are choosing vitamin D instead of the swine flu vaccine. Here are nineteen more reasons:
#1 Vitamin D activates your immune system to respond to any viral...
Doctor Exposed Hundreds of Children to TBBy David Gutierrez, November 3 2009
(NaturalNews) A doctor-in-training unknowingly exposed hundreds of patients, including children and infants, to tuberculosis (TB), the Chicago Public Health Department has announced.
A 26-year-old pediatric resident from Northwestern University has been diagnosed with active tuberculosis, raising the possibility that she might have infected patients at the three hospitals where she had worked between November and March -- Northwestern, Children's Memorial and Evanston.
"She did have some...
Prenatal exposure to BPA in plastics makes young girls aggressiveBy S. L. Baker, November 3 2009
(NaturalNews) How's this for a B movie sci fi plot: evil scientists use chemicals to transform toddler girls into terrifying little monsters. Unfortunately, researchers have uncovered a real life scenario that has some serious similarities to this creepy fantasy. While there are no evil doing scientists or true monsters involved, there is a scary chance that a common chemical -- specifically bisphenol A (BPA) found in many plastics -- could be causing unusually aggressive and hyperactive behaviors...
Soldiers Nearly Killed with Military's Bioterrorism VaccineBy David Gutierrez, November 3 2009
(NaturalNews) Approximately 200 soldiers have suffered from serious and even life-threatening complications from the government-mandated smallpox vaccine, and one has even died.
Starting in 2002, fears over a bioterrorist attack have led the U.S. government to require that all of its military servicepeople receive vaccination against a variety of diseases before deployment, including anthrax and smallpox. An estimated 1.7 million have been vaccinated against smallpox since then. Yet in a number...
 Fraudulent "Smart Choices" food labeling program crumbles as food manufacturers flee scrutiny (opinion)By Mike Adams, November 2 2009
(NaturalNews) The fraudulent "Smart Choices" food labeling gimmick that sought to push sugary cereals as "healthy foods" is crumbling amid the pullout of Kellogg, Unilever and PepsiCo. These companies have been distancing themselves from the fraudulent labeling scam ever since the FDA announced the labeling might be "misleading" and said it intended to investigate.
Kraft Foods, on the other hand, is still neck-deep in the program and insists it will continue to use the "Smart Choices" symbol on...
New research from Japan: Green tea fights blood and liver cancer, as well as pneumoniaBy S. L. Baker, November 2 2009
(NaturalNews) Three new studies by Japanese scientists add even more evidence to what already is an astounding mountain of data showing green tea protects and heals the human body. All of the research is based on findings from the huge Ohsaki National Health Insurance Cohort Study in Japan which involved 41,761 Japanese adults between 40 and 79 years of age. None of the research subjects had a history of cancer when the study started and their diets, along with other lifestyle factors and any health...
CVS Drug Store Company Caught in Hidden Drug-Pushing Deal to Promote Zyprexa for MoneyBy David Gutierrez, November 2 2009
(NaturalNews) A pharmacy benefits manager (PMB) for drug store chain CVS entered a secret agreement with pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly to promote the company's antipsychotic Zyprexa to doctors, according to internal documents revealed as part of an insurance industry lawsuit against the drug maker.
Advance PCS, a unit of CVS, agreed to send unsolicited mail to doctors promoting Zyprexa, even though it was under contract at the time to represent health insurers by gaining the most favorable possible...
How eating kelp can prevent (and heal) goiterBy Mike Adams, November 2 2009
(NaturalNews) Goiter is the medical name for the swelling of the thyroid gland and surrounding tissue (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goiter). The root cause of goiter eludes conventional medicine, but most naturopathic nutritionists agree that in many cases, it's prompted by a severe imbalance in thyroid function caused by an iodine deficiency.
While individual cases may vary from this pattern (be sure to check with a naturopathic physician before self-treating any thyroid condition), most cases...
 Interview with Barbara Brenner from Breast Cancer ActionBy Mike Adams, November 1 2009
(NaturalNews) Breast Cancer Action (www.BCaction.org) is one of the few non-profit cancer organizations recommended by NaturalNews. They're the creators of the Think Before You Pink campaign that encourages consumers to exercise more skepticism about the idea that "buying more pink stuff" can somehow help women with cancer.

Barbara: Yes, the website is www.BCAction.org and we have a companion website, which people can get to from www.BCAction...
Sedatives Increase Risk of Suicides in ElderlyBy David Gutierrez, November 1 2009
(NaturalNews) Taking sedatives or sleeping pills increases the suicide risk of senior citizens by 300 percent, according to a study conducted by researchers from Gothenburg University in Sweden and published in the journal BMC Geriatrics.
"Clinicians need to be aware of this, as these drugs are widely prescribed to the elderly," the researchers wrote.
Researchers compared the medical records of 85 Gothenburg residents above the age of 65 who had committed suicide with a group of the same age...
Product Review: Acer Aspire One netbooks set new standard in mobile computingBy Mike Adams, November 1 2009
(NaturalNews) It's rare to discover a technology product that genuinely changes the way you get things done, but the Aspire One netbook from Acer accomplishes exactly that. It's a feature-packed "netbook" that can revolutionize the way you read websites, listen to audio books, read e-books, watch videos or teleconference with friends. It may seem odd to review a technology product on this website, but because of the ways in which this netbook can greatly enhance your ability to interact with electronic...

(NaturalNews) This article is part five in a six-part series. Be sure to read part five at http://www.naturalnews.com/027363_autism_vaccines_swine_flu.html
Most American are unaware that flu vaccines still contain thimerosal and that to avoid mercury, they have to ask for mercury-free shots. On November 13, 2007, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel ran the headline: "Most flu shots contain mercury, but few know it."
Thimerosal consists of 49.6% ethyl mercury. The Environmental Protection Agency...
 How to get your doctor to sing Happy Birthday while he washes his hands (satire)By Mike Adams, October 31 2009
(NaturalNews) I recently saw a poster in a medical building that stopped me cold. It was about influenza, and it said the following: To avoid spreading germs, wash your hands for as long as it takes to sing Happy Birthday to yourself.
I did a double take. Really? Wash your hands while you sing Happy Birthday as a timing mechanism?
Apparently, this is an important bit of advice for teaching the masses how to successfully wash their own hands. I guess they couldn't use Row, Row, Row Your Boat...
Learning to use the internet could help elders avoid dementiaBy S. L. Baker, October 31 2009
(NaturalNews) University of California at Los Angles (UCLA) scientists have found a way adults who are middle-aged and older can enhance brain function and thinking ability in just one week. This amazingly powerful prescription doesn't involve a drug. Instead, it's simply a matter of learning to surf the Web.
Research presented October 10th at the 2009 meeting of the Society for Neuroscience held in Chicago suggests older people with little Internet experience can trigger key centers in the brain...
Venezuela Bans Coke Zero Citing Health ConcernsBy David Gutierrez, October 31 2009
(NaturalNews) The Venezuelan government has banned the sugar-free soft drink Coke Zero, citing concerns that its artificial sweetener is harmful to human health.
"The product should be withdrawn from circulation to preserve the health of Venezuelans," Health Minister Jesus Mantilla said.

Act Threatens Pennsylvanians with Government Takeover and Forced VaccinationsBy Ethan Huff, November 6 2009
(NewsTarget) Pennsylvania House Bill 492, the Emergency Health Powers Act, was introduced by Rep. Ken Smith (D) on February 18, 2009, as an amendment to The Administrative Code of 1929 which outlines provisions for dealing with public health emergencies.

Misleading Media Denies Connection between Mercury and AutismBy Aaron Turpen, November 6 2009
(NewsTarget) Several recent headlines about a study which concluded that mercury levels in children with autism were not significantly higher than those without have been widely distributed. Headlines reading "Mercury levels not related to autism" and "Mercury not linked with autism, study says" were at the top of many American and European newspapers and magazines in October.1
These publications quickly latched on to the implied fact that because children with autism and those without...
Babies Receive Heart Transplants Instead of Vitamin D TreatmentBy Kerri Knox, RN, November 6 2009
(NewsTarget) Cardiomyopathy is a rare but frequently fatal heart condition in infants and children. In many cases, doctors are unable to find the cause, and severe cases need to stay in the hospital while waiting for their last hope at life- a heart transplant. But whole teams of specialists at major medical centers across the nation may be overlooking vitamin D deficiency as a cause of cardiomyopathy, and children are dying because of it.
Cardiomyopathy is a rare condition where a child's heart...
Hypnosis Benefits the Immune SystemBy Steve G. Jones, M.Ed., November 6 2009
(NewsTarget) The flu is expected to reach more people this year compared to the average flu season. There are many uncertainties this year due to the H1N1 influenza virus. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says that the H1N1 virus has caused the first pandemic (global outbreak) of influenza in 40 years. The World Health Organization (WHO) believes that H1N1 is going to cause more people to get sick, more hospitalizations, and more deaths than the average flu season. Research has shown that hypnosis...
Americans increasingly wishy-washy about global warmingBy Paul Louis, November 5 2009
(Natural News) Fewer Americans are convinced of a scientific basis for global warming, according to a recent report from Pew Research Center for the People & the Press. The survey of 1500 people questioned showed only 57% are certain that there is a scientific basis for global warming, compared to 77% in 2006.
This alleged drop in global warming awareness detected by the survey has occurred despite reports with visuals of icebergs and icecap sections crumbling into arctic and Antarctic waters...
Big Brother says bong water possession is felony crimeBy Paul Louis, November 4 2009
(Natural News) The Minnesota State Supreme Court has recently ruled that bong water of 25 grams or more containing any trace of a controlled substance can be prosecuted as a felony. Bongs with water enable pot and hash smokers to inhale larger quantities with cooler, less irritable smoke.
As a felony, this would require a harsh minimum sentence as required by 1986 and 1988 draconian federal minimum sentencing requirements, which supersede judicial discretion.
The case that was brought to...
 Kellogg's claims sugary "Cocoa Crispies" cereal can boost your child's immunity (opinion)By , November 3 2009
(NaturalNews) The world of bizarre nutritional claims by sugary cereal makers just got a little more weird this week when Kellogg's began shipping boxes of Cocoa Krispies emblazoned with the ridiculous claim, "Now helps support your child's IMMUNITY."
If processed white sugar, partially-hydrogenated trans fat oils and synthetic chemical vitamins could enhance human immunity, Kellogg's would be King of the Hill, but in reality, of all the many foods for boosting human immune function, Cocoa Krispies...
Superfood Profile: Discover the Many Health Benefits of ChlorellaBy Elizabeth Walling, November 3 2009
(NewsTarget) With the quality of commercially-grown produce declining rapidly, obtaining nutritious fruits and vegetables is not an easy task. Few of us eat enough fruits and vegetables on a daily basis; it's a fact that grows more true with each generation. So how do we answer these issues, knowing the bounty of nutrients we're missing? One solution is chlorella, a green single-cell algae that packs a huge nutritious punch.
Chlorella is an astounding package of complete nutrition, considering...
High Protein Diets may Lead to Brain ShrinkageBy Frank Mangano, November 1 2009
(NewsTarget) For muscle heads, diets high in protein may be just what the doctor ordered, but a growing bicep may come with a cost: a shrinking brain.
According to a recent study published in the journal Molecular Neurodegeneration, when compared to three other diets, high protein diets were the ones that caused the most significant drop-off in brain weight.
Alzheimer's disease researchers are well aware of the wealth of studies linking diet to brain health. The Mediterranean diet, for example...
Stop the Phytonutrient Deficiency in AmericaBy Ethan Huff, October 31 2009
(NewsTarget) Most people should be well aware that a diet rich in assorted fruits and vegetables is vital to maintaining health and preventing disease.

Mired in Michigan: State Struggles with Poor Kidney Disease NumbersBy Frank Mangano, October 31 2009
(NewsTarget) Michigan just can't seem to get a break. For well over a year, the Wolverine state has been knocked around and thrown for a loop: 1) In the sports arena (e.g. the Detroit Lions finished the 2008-09 season 0-16; the 2009 Detroit Tigers missed this year's playoffs, even though they were up seven games in the AL Central with a month to go in the season); 2) In the economic arena (e.g. Michigan has the country's highest unemployment rate at 15.2 percent, 6.4 percent higher than the national...
Hypnosis and Behavioral Changes Impact the Motivation to ExerciseBy Steve G. Jones, M.Ed., October 31 2009
(NewsTarget) Exercise is a very important aspect of overall health. Times have changed in the past 100 years making daily chores easy and requiring little physical exertion. The average person no longer has to grow their own food, wash clothes by hand, or build their own house. Transportation now relies heavily on cars instead of bicycles and walking on foot. The good news is that society as a whole is more efficient and productive. The bad news is that most people`s physical output is not keeping...
