 Rand Paul gets it: 'Economic Freedom Zones' could save America's cities from bankruptcyBy J. D. Heyes, December 15 2013
(NaturalNews) If the founding fathers were to somehow be reincarnated today, they would never recognize the country that they fought to create.
I'm not simply talking about all of the technological advances made since the 18th century, although anyone who lived then would be blown away by what America has built and accomplished. I'm talking about the way that we are being governed today.
Which is to say, we are being over-governed.
Thanks to a century's worth of "progressivism," U.S. government...

 It's not just patients; thousands of doctors now being dropped from Obamacare coverage networksBy J. D. Heyes, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) Don't look now, America, but another very predictable consequence of Obamacare is beginning to play out.
Not only are customers losing their insurance plans - the plans Obama said they could keep - but now, insurance companies are dropping physicians from coverage plans as well.
As reported by The Wall Street Journal:
UnitedHealth Group, Inc., the nation's largest provider of privately managed Medicare Advantage plans, has dropped thousands of doctors from its networks in recent...
 Plants won't grow near Wi-Fi routers, experiment findsBy Michael Ravensthorpe, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) It's not difficult to understand the appeal of Wi-Fi. This revolutionary technology, which has been commercially available since 1999, eliminates cabling and wiring for computers, reduces cellular usage charges and allows us to connect to the Internet from anywhere with a signal. Despite these benefits, however, studies continue to show that the radiation generated by wireless routers is negatively affecting our health. In fact, the British activist website Stop Smart Meters recently...
 Katie Couric apologizes for allowing episode on HPV vaccines that tells the truth about deadly side effectsBy Jonathan Benson, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) Investigative journalist and television personality Katie Couric is being crucified by many of her colleagues in the mainstream media for daring to allow the truth about the notorious human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine Gardasil to be discussed on national television. Following the recent airing of a segment on her show Katie, entitled "The HPV Vaccine Controversy," the persecution became so intense that Couric caved and issued a public apology for basically just doing her job by presenting...
 Minnesota judge dismisses phony charges against raw milk farmer Mike HartmannBy Jonathan Benson, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) Despite its relentless attempts, the corrupt Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) has once again failed to maliciously destroy the business of dairy farmer Mike Hartmann, who freely exercises his right to sell raw milk and raw milk products directly from his farm in Gibbon. The Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund (FTCLDF) reports that Sibley County District Court Judge Erica H. McDonald recently dismissed five of six phony criminal charges brought by the state earlier this year...
 Obama setting dangerous precedent with selective Obamacare 'executive lawmaking' that destroy the rule of lawBy J. D. Heyes, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) President Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid don't have much respect or use for the Constitution. That much is made plain by their actions.
The Senate leader recently ditched a couple centuries' worth of tradition by scuttling the chamber's filibuster rules - rules which help protect the minority party and the constituents that they represent - so that he and Obama can fill the D.C. Circuit Court, the nation's second most important, with a bunch of liberal jurists.

 Japanese swimsuit manufacturer unveils anti-radiation underwear, wetsuitsBy Carolanne Wright, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) In response to the continuing Fukushima nuclear crisis, an Osaka-based company has developed several articles of clothing that effectively block radiation. In addition to conventional anti-radiation gear, the garments add an extra layer of protection for workers at the plant. Yet, for those who can afford the price tag, the private sector may benefit from the line of clothing as well. Yamamoto Corporation, a Japanese swimsuit maker, began manufacturing and selling the garments last...
 Probiotics protect pigs from E. coli infectionsBy PF Louis, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) The ramifications of a recent German study on piglets may lead to healthier livestock with less pharmaceutical antibiotic use if other farmers get involved and see the results.
The study determined that pathogenic E. coli strains and their disease-causing genes were greatly lessened with probiotic E. faecium. The recent study also determined that there are E. coli strains that are beneficial, and those strains were not disturbed by E. faecium, even as it destroyed pathogenic E. coli...
 Which foods have anti-inflammatory properties?By Yanjun, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) Many people frequently eat the typical Western-type diet that includes refined carbs (contained in white flour and sugar), a lot of meat, trans fats and saturated fat, all of which are known to trigger and increase chronic inflammation.
What causes chronic inflammation?To put it simply, inflammation is caused by the body's response to an infection or injury as a defense mechanism during the healing process. That is why people who have ever twisted an ankle will notice swelling in...
 Antibiotics unable to stop resistant typhoid feverBy L.J. Devon, Staff Writer, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) Scientists at Oxford University's Clinical Research Unit are stunned by new laboratory results. Their study, funded by the Wellcome Trust and published in the journal eLife, reports of typhoid fever bacteria strains that cannot be controlled. These bacterial strains are downright outsmarting scientists and modern medicine.
Antibiotic control rendered useless in the face of typhoidAfter creating and testing 12 strains of Salmonella Typhi bacteria (typhoid) in their laboratory, the...
 Amazing health benefits of hemp seeds you didn't know aboutBy Sandeep Godiyal, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) Hemp is a variety of the Cannabis sativa (marijuana) plant, but it does not contain large amounts of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the main ingredient that produces a high. Hemp has numerous industrial uses but is also a superfood that comes with numerous health benefits. You can achieve most of the benefits by including its seeds in your diet.

 US group sues to demand personhood for chimpanzeesBy Ethan A. Huff, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) A Florida-based non-profit group has filed a lawsuit seeking legal personhood for a chimpanzee named Tommy that is currently being detained in a cage in Fulton County, New York. The Nonhuman Rights Project (NRP) maintains that chimpanzees like Tommy possess unique cognitive abilities that closely match those found in humans, and that these creatures deserve to be regarded as people with protected rights just like humans.
The lawsuit is one of three currently being filed by the group...
 Passion flower is effective for countering anxiety and stressBy P. Simard, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) Spanish missionaries gave the plant its name, "passion flower," because certain aspects of it reminded them of the wounds, whips and stigma linked to the passion of Christ. This herb should definitely be one of the first that comes to mind when looking to naturally treat conditions of anxiety, seizures, nervousness, insomnia and even hysteria.
Scientists have reason to believe that passion flower's effectiveness primarily stems from its ability to increase the presence of a substance...
 Cancer patient who spoke out against Obamacare targeted for IRS auditBy J. D. Heyes, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) Whenever I hear Barack Obama talk about government "compassion" and benevolence, I nearly lose my lunch. The man couldn't be lying more if he was telling you that you can keep your health insurance and doctor, or that your coverage rates will decrease $2,500 a year.
Under his "leadership," federal agencies have become nothing more than "heavies" and thugs, doing his bidding and enforcing his will with iron fists, the way the bureaucracies in tyrannical countries run by dictators...
 Eating for happinessBy Michelle Goldstein, December 13 2013
(NaturalNews) We are what we eat. As Hippocrates stated long ago, "Let food be thy medicine." Each day we have the choice to nourish our bodies with nutrient-dense foods or poison ourselves with processed, empty calories.
Modern research has discovered what endemic cultures knew through their intrinsic wisdom, passed on from generation to generation. New researchers are discovering that traditional diets carry one key to happiness. Weston A. Price, in his meticulous 1930s research, observed that...
 Father sentenced to life in prison for 'murder' after daughter dies following MMR vaccineBy Ethan A. Huff, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) A U.K. father has been sentenced to life in prison after being falsely accused of murdering his own daughter, who reportedly developed mysterious head injuries just one day after receiving the high-risk measles, mumps and rubella vaccine, more commonly known as MMR. Investigative journalist Christina England reports that the father was basically denied his right to defend himself with evidence and witnesses and instead just assumed by the court to have shaken his baby to death with...
 Man becomes acne-free with three-day apple fastBy Antonia, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Chris Gibson started developing acne at the young age of 11. He suffered with the skin condition for over 15 years, saying he was well into his 20s when he was cured. In his case, he had cystic acne, which can lead to severe scarring and permanent pockmarks. "Antibiotics... Accutane... [I] tried it all," says Gibson, who often "kept counting on it" to "go away on its own." Yet, he's now been free of his problematic acne for 20 years, saying the simple fix was right in the fruit aisle...
 Probiotics eliminate autism-like symptoms in miceBy Ethan A. Huff, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Lending further credence to the notion that autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are directly related to an imbalanced or damaged gut, a new study out of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) has found that mice diagnosed with ASD experience substantial improvements when given treatments with probiotics, a finding that could translate to humans.
According to Science Daily, ASD mice with "leaky" guts, a condition commonly seen among humans with ASD, were essentially healed of...
 IV vitamin C helps cancer patientsBy Jonathan Landsman, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Most cancer patients are vitamin C deficient. In fact, it's fair to say, most chronically ill people suffer (greatly) from inadequate nourishment. Let's be real - poor nutrition increases your risk of inflammation, toxicity, chronic fatigue and depression. Bottom line, if the goal is to fully recover from a cancer diagnosis, cancer patients must consume high-quality vitamins and minerals for success.
Stop cancer with vitamin C. Over 30 years ago, Nobel laureate Linus Pauling and...
 Stolen cobalt-60 proves how easily dirty bomb materials can be acquired and deployedBy J. D. Heyes, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Privacy abuses and wholesale spying by the National Security Agency notwithstanding, policy analysts and experts generally agree that, for the foreseeable future, a major threat to U.S. national security are weapons of mass destruction.
Such weapons are most often classified as being chemical, biological or nuclear in nature and capable of killing, maiming and wounding a large number of Americans in an attack.
Perhaps the most significant of these threats is the nuclear one and...
 Healthy benefits of eating broccoliBy Sandeep Godiyal, December 12 2013

Broccoli keeps the heart healthy:Broccoli contains a compound called sulforaphane, which is necessary to activate a protein that stops plague formation...
 New ethical questions surface over Steve Jobs and possible bribery of transplant doctorBy PF Louis, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Steve Jobs shrouded his treatment choices in secrecy while struggling with the pancreatic cancer he was diagnosed with in 2004. His secrecy was tight enough to annoy Apple executives.
A top Apple director, Jerry York, was quoted off the record saying that he was so displeased with Jobs's lack of transparency regarding his illness that he had nearly resigned from the board over the matter.
York's off the record status was removed after his death in 2010. But this "lack of transparency...
 Top tech companies invoke Constitution in call for end to NSA surveillanceBy J. D. Heyes, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) It is astounding to me how little noise has been made by media outlets, public figures and others with a microphone or TV camera over the government's blatant and serial violations of the Fourth Amendment's privacy protections, but that may be changing - and that's a good thing.
Now, eight major tech companies have stood up - finally - to call for an end to blanket government surveillance. The Associated Press reports that the tech companies made their demand in an open letter to...
 Love coffee but not the toxicity? Minimize health risks with these tipsBy Carolanne Wright, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Coffee beverages are big business in America, generating a whopping $30 billion in annual revenue. Controversy continues to plague this beloved drink, however, with reports of toxicity stemming from dangerous growing methods and the roasting process. Then there's the addicting properties of caffeine, as well as the issue of acidity. In spite of the bad rap, research has shown that coffee also lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease, depression, stroke, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's...
 Shocked scientists discover the skin communicates with the liverBy Ethan A. Huff, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Skin: It is your body's largest organ, and groundbreaking new research out of Denmark has found that the proper function of your other vital organs is dependent upon its integrity. A collaborative research project out of the University of Southern Denmark (USD) recently discovered that human skin directly communicates and interacts with the rest of the body, meaning that, when it is not in good health, there is a good chance that the same is true about other vital organs.

 Study: Psychedelic mushrooms can help spur production of new brain cellsBy Ethan A. Huff, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) They're technically illegal in all 50 states. But so-called "magic mushrooms," or what street dealers and those in the know refer to as "shrooms," are a highly medicinal reparative food that scientific research put out by the University of South Florida suggests could be used to improve cognitive function. Researchers at the school found that a prominent substance in shrooms known as psilocybin, which is considered an illegal Schedule I drug by the federal government, has the ability...
 Heirloom tomatoes: Unique fruits passed down for generationsBy Michael Ravensthorpe, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Heirloom tomatoes (also called heritage tomatoes) are tomatoes that have been passed down from generation to generation within a family, usually because they have desirable characteristics that the growers wish to maintain.
The term "heirloom" in application to plants was coined by Kent Whealy of the American Seeds Savers Exchange company, who described some special plants of his as "heirloom" during a speech he made in Tucson, Arizona, in 1981. Since the word entered the vernacular...
 Can IRS levy 2014 tax liens in wake of failed Obamacare enrollment site?By S. D. Wells, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) What if you're getting cancer treatments now, and they are covered by your insurance, but then Obamacare cancels your insurance, will you have massive collections that eat up any tax refund you would have received? Will there be a lien on your taxes as early as April 2014? Can the IRS collect at your front door, armed to the teeth with DHS agents, making sure you don't avoid your debt to the Government of the United States of America? If you fall and break your arm next week and go...
 Shopper sues Macy's after being illegally jailed in an in-store prisonBy J. D. Heyes, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) This time of year is usually associated with holidays and family, friends and tradition, and, of course, gift-giving. But one Macy's shopper will forever remember it as a time for incarceration and lawsuits.
According to various reports, Rachid Bakhari has filed a $1 million lawsuit against the retail chain for being handcuffed and tossed into a jail cell at the flagship Macy's store in Manhattan two days after the 2012 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Bakhari "said the incident...
 New York City to force all children to be injected with mercury in the form of flu shotsBy Mike Adams, December 12 2013
(NaturalNews) Of all the toxic heavy metals, mercury is the most devastating to the brain. No legitimate scientist would ever argue that mercury is safe to inject into a child at any dose, and the CDC has never established any "safe" level of mercury in human blood for the simple reason that there's isn't any safe level.
Yet the New York City Board of Health has now decided that all children in New York City need to be injected with a devastating dose of toxic mercury as part of their twisted...
 America's top hospitals to be excluded from ObamacareBy J. D. Heyes, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) One of the reasons why U.S. healthcare is expensive is because some of the world's best hospitals are based in our country. That's not the only reason why, mind you, but let's face it: things of higher quality tend to cost more.
But there will be none of that "best quality care" available for most ordinary Americans, thanks to Obamacare: New published information says that those who sign up under the healthcare law's exchanges will be excluded from coverage that would pay for care...
 GMOs cause horrible deformities, birth defects in pigletsBy Jonathan Benson, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) When Danish pig farmer Ib Pedersen first noticed the sudden uptick in disease, deformities and death among his farrow, his immediate reaction was to investigate the diet of his pigs to look for possible causes. And what he found confirms what a growing body of evidence also suggests: that genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in conventional animal feed are increasingly responsible for triggering birth defects, deformities, spontaneous abortions and other growth and development abnormalities...
 Ex-Monsanto employee involved in discrediting study linking GMOs to cancer in ratsBy Michael Ravensthorpe, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) Remember the explosive 2012 study published in the Food and Chemical Toxicology (FCT) journal, in which Gilles-Eric Seralini and other researchers proved (with photographic evidence) that rats fed a lifetime of GM corn grew horrific tumors? It turns out that the study was retracted from the FCT in November 2013 - less than a year after the journal appointed Richard E. Goodman, an ex-employee of Monsanto, as the editor tasked with reviewing its biotechnology papers.

 Cooking with Splenda found to release cancer-causing dioxins in foodBy Jonathan Benson, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) The long-term safety of the popular artificial sweetener Splenda (sucralose) has been called into question by a new review study published in the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health. Researchers from the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) discovered that sucralose essentially releases cancer-causing dioxins in food when baked or otherwise heated, which is one of its primary marketed uses.
Citing an earlier study published by researchers from the Department of Pharmacology...
 Freshwater breakthrough as huge aquifers discovered beneath ocean floorBy Ethan A. Huff, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) Hidden beneath the depths of the world's oceans are large pockets of mostly fresh water that could serve as replacement water sources for the many land-based aquifers that are on the verge of drying up, a new study suggests. Discovered off the coasts of Australia, China, North America and South Africa, these massive underwater aquifers contain such high amounts of freshwater, say Australian researchers, that water shortages could become a thing of the past.
It is estimated that roughly...
 Put a stop to your cold and boost your immune system once more!By Yanjun, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) Colds are not attractive in the slightest. When it comes to determining who gets affected the most by the common cold, a person's gender plays a big part. But as time passes on, the gender factor will disappear. When a person is younger, he or she has many naive cells inside of them. These naive cells are adequate for prevention of illness. They combat the germs faster and stronger. But as we get older, those cells die down. That makes it that much harder to fight off the germs and...
 Hemp: the most versatile plant in the world that is still prohibited from being grown in (most of) AmericaBy Jonathan Benson, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) The original drafts of both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were written on paper derived from it. The sails of Christopher Columbus' ship, the Santa Maria, were made of fabric spun from it. Even early U.S. currency was printed on material extracted from it: hemp, a.k.a. cannabis, the most versatile plant in the world that, despite its significance as an early Americana, is still prohibited from being grown in most of America.

 Health Basics: When does cancer start?By S. D. Wells, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) Big question: Exactly when does this non-contagious, non-inherited "disorder" of the cells begin, so modern science can really find that cure? The answer to this question is complicated but explainable. First of all, asking a doctor, an oncologist or a nutritionist, "When does cancer start?" is like asking someone to tell you exactly when they fell asleep. They don't know. Nobody knows exactly when or where in the body cancer starts. Doctors simply don't know. Genetically modified ...
 Research: Effective psychotherapy proven to positively alter your physical brain (no drugs required)By Mike Bundrant, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) Recent research published by the journal Biological Psychiatry has shown that psychotherapy techniques do much more than reduce the symptoms of certain psychological disorders.
Psychotherapeutic intervention also affects underlying biology, including the physical structure of the brain.
The study was conducted by researchers at the National Institute of Psychiatry and Addictions and the University of Szeged in Hungary. Research involved 39 individual volunteers who had been diagnosed...
 Global warming advocates ignore quiet hurricane season of 2013; warming data is cherry-pickedBy J. D. Heyes, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) Hey, did you hear about how strong this year's storm season was, and that the major superstorms that characterized this year's hurricane season were all caused by climate change?
No, you didn't. Because those storms never materialized, even though global warming shills have been screaming for years that, because of a dramatically warmer earth, such storms will become the new normal.
Where are they now?
That's what Colombia-based journalist and attorney Michael Fumento wants...
 Coconut provides a powerhouse of delicious nutritionBy Michelle Goldstein, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) Coconut is a true super food. Long misunderstood as being an unhealthy source of oil, it has become the darling of the holistic nutrition world. Coconut oil, milk, cream, meat and water can be enjoyed raw, in smoothies and juices, and also cooked. The coconut provides a large array of health benefits. Coconuts have been shown to help with weight loss, heart health, allergy issues, diabetes, immunity, energy, athletic performance, mental and neurological health, and skin care. In traditional...
 U.S. government air drops dead mice on Guam to kill invasive snakesBy J. D. Heyes, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) It's not exactly the Berlin Airlift, but the U.S. government is nonetheless airlifting sustenance to another part of the world.
This time, the destination is Guam, and the "food" being flown isn't something THAT most humans would be interested in eating.
According to various reports, 2,000 mice were tossed out of a plane recently over Andersen Air Force Base wearing tiny cardboard parachutes. Their "mission"? To kill brown tree snakes, "an invasive species that has caused millions...
 Should you consume soy products?By Dr. David Jockers, December 11 2013
(NaturalNews) Prior to the 1920s, soy was not even considered a food product in the US and was thought to be unfit for human consumption. After 1950, the cultivation of soybeans in the US rose to over 140 billion pounds per year. Over 90% of soy grown in the United States is genetically modified (GM). Most soy consumption is anything but healthy and has strongly contributed to many different health problems.
Processed soy contains high amounts of glutamate, manganese, fluoride and aluminum along...
 Mother Jones now channeling Alex Jones: Police militarization can no longer be deniedBy J. D. Heyes, December 9 2013
(NaturalNews) Mother Jones magazine, long a voice of the anti-establishment left, has made a transformation of sorts in recent months, culminating in an admission of sorts that those on the forefront of the fight to restore individual freedom and liberty have a point when they decry the rising instances of police militarization.
It's too bad that it took them this long to join a fight that people like Alex Jones have been waging for years.

 Flu shot kills 19-year-old, but vaccine industry still has total immunity against lawsuitsBy Ethan A. Huff, December 10 2013
(NaturalNews) The flu shot has claimed its first victim in the state of Utah, at least according to state health officials who insist that there is no official record of any individual ever previously dying as a result of the annual jab. 19-year-old Chandler Webb, a formerly healthy young man who worked out at the gym daily, reportedly suffered violent reactions and slipped into a coma just one day after getting his first flu vaccine ever, which prompted his death just a few weeks later.

 Children in danger as an easy target for forced medicineBy Sue Woledge, December 10 2013
(NaturalNews) It would appear from mounting evidence that today's children are an easy target for increased profits for pharmaceutical companies and medical practitioners.
Profit-driven drug companies, hell-bent on making money no matter the cost to patients or their families, along with ego-driven doctors, are going to extremes to prove themselves and their dangerous treatments right (or to avoid being proven wrong), using extreme measures to force treatments onto children to meet their objectives...
 Fukushima continues to contaminate environment; cleanup expected to take decadesBy Jonathan Benson, December 10 2013
(NaturalNews) Cleanup efforts at the stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power facility were taken up a notch recently, as crews began hauling the spent fuel rods out of the infamous Reactor 4, which sustained terminal damage when the tsunami struck it back in 2011. But this is just the beginning of a massive remediation effort at the site, which experts say could take many decades to complete due to the catastrophic destruction caused by the massive earthquake and storm surge.
