 Parents sue Arizona for right to use medical marijuana that relieved child's seizures and autism symptomsBy PF Louis, November 10 2013
(NaturalNews) Protecting your children from harsh medical treatments, such as chemotherapy, and having them healed with alternative means is often considered child abuse by Child Protective Services and the Medical Mafia. Even in a state that now allows medical marijuana use, if your child is being healed with cannabis, the state can threaten parents with arrest.
With such a looming threat hanging over their heads, a couple in Arizona, Jacob and Jennifer Welton, have sued Gov. Jan Brewer, Maricopa...

 Before the New Year, clear the air and clear your mind - Stop smoking!By S. D. Wells, November 10 2013
(NaturalNews) As Obamacare cripples the country with exorbitant price gouging, millions of Americans will not only lose their current health coverage and their doctors but also lose their jobs or have their hours cut back, putting a huge damper on their ability to meet their monthly bills, including mortgage/rent, power, heat, car loans, gas and food and water. Top off all that with some added expenses, like useless pharmaceuticals or cigarettes, and you have millions of people in a "fight or flight...
 Top AP photographer says Obama photos are nothing more than 'staged propaganda'By J. D. Heyes, November 10 2013
(NaturalNews) You most likely suspected it before, but a top Associated Press photographer has officially confirmed it: Obama stages his appearances, and his photo ops are little more than propaganda.
As reported by The Daily Caller:
Editors of The Associated Press condemned the White House's refusal to give photojournalists real access to President Obama, who prefers to circulate press release-style pictures taken by his own paid photographers.
These official photographs are little more...
 Cultivate exceptional health, clarity and energy with this one nutritional healing systemBy Carolanne Wright, November 10 2013
(NaturalNews) Nutritional balancing therapy may seem simple at first glance, but the protocol is quite powerful for healing a wide range of illness. Originally developed by Dr. Paul C. Eck in the late 1970s, the program has continued to evolve with Dr. Lawrence Wilson, who worked as an apprentice and assistant to Dr. Eck for over a decade. The therapy involves a specific diet custom-tailored for each individual, depending on a person's metabolic blueprint, as well as toxic load and deficiencies revealed...
 Many food and beverage products made with stevia components still contain sugar, report findsBy Jonathan Benson, November 10 2013
(NaturalNews) Growing consumer demand for a healthy, natural sweetener alternative that does not contain sugar or artificial chemicals has created a booming market for stevia extract and stevia-derived sweetener components, both of which are now added to thousands of consumer products and are even available in single-serving packets at many grocery stores and restaurants. But not all products containing stevia are as they seem, as many still contain added sugar and other additives for which consumers...

BBC News reports that a new study recently published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ) found that a 20 percent tax on sugary beverages like soda pop and processed sports drinks would help curb the number of obese Brits by some 180,000 folks, which in turn would help reduce the financial burden on the U.K.'s National Health Service (NHS).

 U.S. energy secretary visits Fukushima in person two-and-a-half years later, stunned and shocked, 'daunting' task aheadBy L.J. Devon, Staff Writer, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) The majority of Americans already understand that the federal government is incapable of securing prosperity and protecting the health of the people. US leaders have been assaulting their country into debt for many years now, enslaving the country to its own world reserve currency and Federal Reserve Bank. The current administration can't even put together a working website to take over health care as was intended. Entrusted to bring "affordable health care to all," the federal government...
 Another Obamacare surprise: Major hospitals all across the country not included under new insurance plansBy Jonathan Benson, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) As if the millions of Americans set to lose their existing health insurance coverage as a result of Obamacare was not bad enough, a recent survey by Watchdog.org has found that many top hospitals across the nation will no longer be accessible to the average person with a new "eligible" plan. In fact, many major hospitals are being excluded from Obamacare coverage altogether, which means that millions of previously covered individuals will have to settle for subpar care at other "in...
 Vegetarians tricked by restaurants across the nation as they eat dead animals by accidentBy S. D. Wells, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) How many so called "vegetarian" dishes and soups at restaurants are made with chicken stock, though it is not disclosed on the menu or by the waiter/waitress? How many people take supplements that are enclosed in "gelatin" capsules, which are actually ground up animal muscle and connective tissue? How many people know when they are consuming lard, or animal fat, when they eat certain sweets like donuts, cake icing and pie crust? So who really is eating dead animals by accident, all...
 Nine healthy winter foods to include in your dietBy Yanjun, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) Several foods give the body nutrients that actually help to promote wellness, and this is very important during the winter months when many illnesses circulate through the population.

Fresh fruits and vegetables are available year round, and these are the foods that are most likely to ensure health and wellness, as they impart vitamins, minerals and other beneficial substances...
 Obamacare wiping out private health insurance, just as plannedBy J. D. Heyes, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) One of the intended - yes, you read that right, intended - consequences of Obamacare was to destroy the private health insurance industry. Just weeks after the law's official health exchange roll-out, it is well on its way to accomplishing that goal.
At first, it was just a trickle, but now it has become a tidal wave sweeping across the country: Millions of Americans who had their own private, non-employer-provided health insurance are seeing their policies canceled, despite President...
 Top six tips for choosing the highest quality supplementsBy Mike Bundrant, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) Americans enjoy the fact that they have many choices in their lives. Yet, having too many choices when it comes to one's health can be confusing and daunting.
The $27 Billion U.S. dietary supplement industry provides consumers with hundreds of thousands of products to choose from, and it is growing more and more each year. A booming dietary supplement industry is a good thing, but how does someone really know what the best choice is?
Before you spend your hard-earned dollars,...
 History behind the ancient and powerful MacaBy Willow Tohi, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) Maca, or Lepidium meyenii, is an herbaceous biennial plant from the Peruvian Andes and Bolivia. It is used as a root vegetable and medicinal herb. Used by the Andean people for more than 2,000 years, its rich history includes being used as a currency during the Incan empire due to its value for enhancing energy and libido. It is still sold in Peru today, marketed for building strength, promoting stamina, improving sexual function, and enhancing fertility. Its fiber content means it...
 Are you drinking too much water?By Matt Stone, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) Americans everywhere are encouraged to drink half their body weight in fluid ounces in water each day or the proverbial eight eight-ounce glasses of water per day. Is it too much? Is it not enough? For answers, we turn to some basic aspects of human physiology. While water may seem perfectly pure and natural, you can "clearly" have too much of a good thing, and the side effects can be surprisingly nasty, and include numerous signs to look out for.
We often hear that our bodies are...
 Fracking pinpointed as cause of Texas earthquakesBy David Gutierrez, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) Yet another study has linked fracking and similar oil and gas mining practices to earthquakes, this time in Texas.
The new study was conducted by researchers from China University of Geosciences and the University of Texas at Austin and published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The researchers analyzed 93 separate earthquakes that took place in Texas between March 2009 and December 2010. They found that many of the earthquakes occurred shortly after oil and...
 Here's another way processed meats may increase colon cancer risksBy John Phillip, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) Colon cancer is a particularly deadly form of the disease that is rapidly increasing among those who consume a traditional Western-style diet, which has previously been shown to dramatically raise disease incidence due to a lack of fiber and high intake of sugary, processed carbohydrates. Prior studies have also demonstrated an increased risk of colon cancer with a diet high in red and processed meats. Those studies have pointed to higher levels of dietary iron and nitrates as a primary...
 Just as we predicted: New call to arm TSA agents with gunsBy J. D. Heyes, November 8 2013
(NaturalNews) We here at Natural News have well documented the unconstitutional acts, criminal activity and escapades of the hapless Transportation Security Administration - the agency that has elevated feeling people up to an Olympian level.
We have also always thought that someday, some nanny statist in D.C. would propose the unthinkable - giving these people guns. And sure enough, it has happened.
According to Politico, the supposed impetus for this idiocy was the recent shooting death of...
 Obama now blatantly delusional: Denies ever promising you can keep your health insuranceBy Ethan A. Huff, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) The trail of lies from the Obama-occupied White House never seems to cease, and a recent speech by the Usurper-in-Chief himself concerning the ongoing Obamacare insurance debacle is no exception. Responding to widespread public outrage over his breaking of earlier promises that people could keep their existing health insurance coverage under the new system, Usurper Obama now claims that he never actually made such promises, despite the fact that there are at least 29 recorded instances...
 Germany now registering 'genderless' babies with both male and female characteristicsBy Jonathan Benson, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) They are sometimes referred to as "intersex" people -- individuals with chromosomes, genitalia or even just characteristics that resemble both the male and female sex -- and for the first time ever, they now have their own gender category on birth certificates in Europe. According to BBC News, Germany has officially become the first nation in the world to allow parents to register their newborn babies as genderless, or "indeterminate sex," when it is determined that they bear both male...
 Fukushima cleanup efforts put northern hemisphere on alertBy Jonathan Landsman, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) At an estimated cost of $150 billion, the Fukushima nuclear power plant 'cleanup' efforts have suspicious ties to organized crime and many on-site workers lack the required expertise to handle such nuclear disasters safely or effectively. With over 7 layers of poorly-supervised sub-contractors, like Tepco, Kajima and Obayashi Corp. - workers are routinely being exposed, in less than 1 hour, to deadly levels of radiation. But, there's more to this story and the truth needs to be told...

(NaturalNews) A 33-year-old woman, who apparently had grown up on Big Macs and Chicken McNuggets her whole life, just couldn't go another minute without her McFries and McCoke.
When her boyfriend refused to go to McDonald's with her, she decided to run him over, not once, not twice, but three times.
According to local Tennessee police, the woman was angry, because her boyfriend didn't want to go to McDonald's.
What is it about McDonald's food that would make a woman this idiotic and vicious...

The affliction tends to be more prominent in young people and women.

 Beware of Pfizer's tetracycline - Unless you enjoy permanently stained teethBy Jonathan Benson, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) A popular class of antibiotic drugs that is still widely administered to young children, tetracycline, which were originally created and patented by drug giant Pfizer Inc., are known to cause permanent staining of teeth in many of the patients that take it. And one North Carolina man who is a victim of tetracycline has created a petition to Pfizer that he hopes will convince the company to pay for the damage the drug caused him.
 Discover magnesium, the miracle mineralBy Ethan A. Huff, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) Though it hardly receives any mainstream attention, magnesium is one of the most important minerals that you are probably not getting enough of in your everyday diet. Besides being a major co-factor in some 325 enzyme systems throughout the body, magnesium is also essential for achieving and maintaining strong bones, restful sleep, a healthy heart and optimal brain function, just a few of the many reasons why a growing number of health experts now refer to it as the "miracle" mineral...
 Maggots versus antibiotics in the fight against infectionBy Lance Johnson, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) In the fight against infection, antibiotics have become the go to resource in the last 70 years.
The introduction of penicillin in the 1940s brought hope to the medical field for treatment of infections, but that hope quickly turned to false hope with the realization that bacteria are smarter and evolve much faster than antibiotics. Medical professionals today are warning that the antibiotic era is over, that scientists cannot keep up with the super strains of bacteria evolving today...
 Paralyzed firefighter dropped from insurance coverage thanks to ObamacareBy J. D. Heyes, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) Do you remember recent government budget talks? The Obama administration, including the president himself, complained that his political opponents' budgetary demands (less government spending) were hurting regular folks and those who protect us, like police and firefighters.
That was then. Before Obamacare started hurting police and firefighters. Now, however, the narrative coming from the White House is different. It is one of silence.

 Yoga improves mood, reduces anxiety and depressionBy Nanditha Ram, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) Modern-day yoga practice has been relegated to an exercise form for feeling good and boosting energy levels while losing weight. This simplistic approach, while offering a partial truth, negates the vast and deep implications of an ancient mind-body science on the health of the practitioner. Modern medicine is finally waking up to the fact that techniques in yoga are possible solutions to health issues in an all encompassing way, and not by separating the body and mind as two entities...
 Eucalyptus trees actually 'mine' gold and deposit it in their leavesBy Ethan A. Huff, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) Gone may be the days of having to dig and dredge the earth in search of gold, thanks to a recent discovery by researchers from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) in Australia. They found that the common eucalyptus tree, which grows extensively throughout Australia and in many other parts of the world, literally mines gold out of the ground via its extensive root system and deposits this precious metal in its branches and leaves.

 Four reasons to add more kale to your dietBy Michael Ravensthorpe, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) Kale is a form of wild cabbage with purple or green leaves and was one of the commonest green vegetables in Europe until the latter part of the Middle Ages. It grows well into winter, and some growers even claim that it tastes sweeter when subjected to frost. Cooked kale is a popular addition to potato and meat-based dishes; though - like all leafy green vegetables - it can also be eaten raw.
Kale is considered one of the most nutritious, if not the most nutritious, vegetables in...
 Doctor not allowed to warn patients of hazardous fracking chemicals, federal judge rulesBy PF Louis, November 7 2013
(NaturalNews) Recently, a small town Pennsylvania doctor was denied the right of access to information about specific chemical types and quantities used in fracking to better handle poisoned patients or warn them of the toxic potentials from fracking well sites near them.
Although the gas and oil fracking industry does reveal general chemical ingredients on a public registry site, fracfocus.org, that appears to be industry-friendly, the industry reserves the right to keep exact recipes on specific...
 Introducing Orajuvenate Peppermint, the world's first ozonated jojoba cream for brushing your teeth and supporting gum healthBy Mike Adams, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) A few months ago, the launch of our Orajuvenate ozonated jojoba oil was a huge success. Readers leaped at the chance to replace their toothpaste and switch to an ozonated substance (actually a liquid plant-based wax) that helps deliver benefits of ozone to their teeth and gums.*
The only drawback to the product was that it tasted bland. Many people found it too boring. I even found myself adding two drops of OraMD to my toothbrush before brushing with Orajuvenate.

 GMO labeling initiative 522 seems to have failed, proving once again that corporate money can buy food secrecyBy Mike Adams, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) As of this writing, Washington state I-522 looks to have narrowly failed at the ballot box. This link shows election results county by county.
At 11:00pm last night, the "no" votes were winning by approximately 55% to 44%. Mail-in votes reportedly have not been counted yet, but unless a radical change appears in the final votes, I-522 will go down in history as yet another example of corporate money buying out the voters through a campaign of lies and deception.

 Processed foods contain healthier ingredients in foreign markets than they do in USBy Ethan A. Huff, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) It is bad enough that many processed foods currently on the market today still contain artificial dyes, chemical stabilizers and preservatives, refined sugars and various other toxic, yet FDA-approved, ingredients. But a recent investigation by FoodBabe.com reveals a shocking double standard within the food industry: processed foods created for the American market are often far worse nutritionally than those created for foreign markets, despite claims by the food industry that there...
 Number of Americans on food stamps has doubled in just 10 yearsBy J. D. Heyes, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) The pace of transformation of America from a productive, pull-up-your-boots society to one hooked on government handouts is quickening, as new data indicates an explosion of growth in a program once considered a short-term fix for people temporarily down on their luck.
According to government figures, enrollment in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, otherwise known as SNAP, has more than doubled in 10 years - and rose even during times of good economic growth.

 Johnson & Johnson to pay $2.2 billion for making false marketing claims and engaging in kickbacksBy Raw Michelle, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) In what's considered one of the country's largest health care fraud settlements and one of the largest whistleblower payouts in U.S. history, Johnson & Johnson will pay $2.2 billion to settle charges involving the company's role in marketing three prescription drugs for unapproved uses. As the saying goes, "But wait. There's more."
Johnson & Johnson, along with two subsidiaries, Janssen Pharmaceuticals and Scios, also paid kickbacks to doctors and nursing homes who touted their drugs...
 Obama holds covert meetings with selected members of the media to make sure they get their (fake) stories straightBy J. D. Heyes, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) The left-wing media loves to portray President Obama as the smartest guy in the room and someone who is engaging, fair and truly interested in what others have to say. But the truth is, Obama is singularly focused on his own policies and is maniacal about controlling the narrative. He's not interested in what others have to say; he is only interested in getting others to listen to, and abide by, what he says.
As such, it should surprise no one that the president, who has dozens of...
 Choosing a Mediterranean diet increases odds of living to an old age by more than 40 percentBy John Phillip, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) It may come as no big surprise to many followers of natural health practices that eating a diet largely void of sugar, refined and processed carbohydrates and protein sources as well as hydrogenated fats can help to promote a healthy lifestyle and prevent many chronic diseases. The fact that this wisdom is finally being touted by mainstream researchers, known primarily for heralding "junk science" that pushes the interests of Big Pharma and mega-giant food concerns, is a welcome sign...
 Caffeine mints sold as candy kills a man who ate too manyBy PF Louis, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) Energy drinks that are heavily laced with caffeine have become common in beverage coolers everywhere. They add to the already heavy caffeine consumption of many through coffee, tea and cokes. Energy drinks are usually more potent than coffees or teas, and teens have easy access to them.
Recently, a 40-year-old British male died from caffeine-packed mints.
John Jackson bought a package of energy mints called Hero Instant Energy Mints and died after eating some or all of the 12...
 Dietary astaxanthin decreases oxidative stress, enhances immune response in humansBy Jonathan Benson, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) It might not seem like much, gently gracing the cellular structures of certain marine life and perking them up with that familiar pink hue seen in wild-caught seafood. But astaxanthin is one of the most powerful "superfoods" in existence, helping to mitigate oxidative stress, enhance immune response, quell damaging inflammation and even inhibit the growth and spread of cancer cells.
A 2010 study published in the journal Nutrition & Metabolism reveals these and other benefits associated...
 Eco-friendly jewelry: The new "green" trendBy Alexandra Du Toit, TRUE Earth Mama, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) Archeological digs dating back many thousands of years prove the fact that jewelry has always been a desired part of human existence, from the rich and powerful to the average worker on the street. Man or woman, old or young, people like to adorn themselves with beautiful accessories. Unfortunately however, these days, most jewelry comes from a very sad and scary unconscious place. Many pieces of jewelry begin with precious metals and gems that are a part of warfare and bloodshed, and...
 US government mining social media to track 'health behavior' of AmericansBy J. D. Heyes, November 6 2013
(NaturalNews) Just about every agency of the federal government, not to mention its spy apparatus, is prying apart the Fourth Amendment to get as much information as possible on every man, woman and child, no doubt for some spurious use at some point down the road.
The latest episode to this sad, unconstitutional story comes from the National Library of Medicine, which is busy data mining Facebook and Twitter in a bid to bolster its social media footprint and "assess how Tweets can be used as...
