One of his largest, The Republic, contains the oft-referred to Allegory of the Cave.

 Organic Similac: Formula for Obesity?By Joanne Waldron, August 6 2008 (NaturalNews) Most mothers know that breast milk is best for baby, but there are some people who, perhaps for health reasons, need to find a safe alternative. In many instances, these moms look for an organic infant formula and are willing to pay top dollar to give their babies the best possible nutrition. Sadly, just because an infant formula is given the "organic" label doesn’t necessarily mean that it is healthy.
For example, a recent article in The New York Times revealed that the organic version...

 Millions of Lab Animals Sacrificed Each Year with Lethal Dose Drug TestingBy David Gutierrez, August 6 2008 (NaturalNews) An often lethal test required for drugs to gain regulatory approval is scientifically worthless, an extensive procedural review has concluded.

 Menstruation is a Disease (And Other Ridiculous Myths Believed by Mainstream Consumers)By Mike Adams, August 5 2008 (NaturalNews) As I was horrified to discover upon turning on the TV in a hotel room recently, drug companies are now pushing pills that promise women a significant reduction in the frequency of menstruation. The implication, of course, is that menstruation is a disease that needs to be treated with pharmaceuticals, and that chemically interfering with your own natural hormone cycles is not merely healthy, but even hip!
These ads promise putting you "back in control" of your life, but they say...

 Is Your Shower Curtain Making You Sick?By Sherry Baker, August 5 2008 (NaturalNews) Ever buy a vinyl shower curtain and hang it up only to feel like you’ve been hit in the face by a wave of noxious fumes? It turns out, according to new research, that’s exactly what happens.
The problem is these curtains, which sold at major retailers across the country, don’t only smell horrible, but scientists have documented they are out-gassing toxic chemicals linked to serious and even deadly health problems.

 Most Women of Childbearing Age Fail on Folic Acid IntakeBy David Gutierrez, August 5 2008 (NaturalNews) The majority of U.S. women of childbearing age do not comply with government requirements to take a daily supplement of folic acid.
Folic acid and folate are two forms of vitamin B-9, and sufficient levels are required for the proper development of the fetal nervous system. Low maternal levels of folate can cause neural tube defects, including brain and spine abnormalities that can lead to disability or death.
Because the neural tube develops within the first weeks of pregnancy...
 Hospital Worker Receives Nearly $5 Million Reward in Whistleblower Reward Over Hospital Billing FraudBy David Gutierrez, August 5 2008 (NaturalNews) A former nurse who filed a whistleblower lawsuit against a hospital for defrauding Medicare has been awarded $4.94 million by the court.

Our digestive system maintains large populations of bacteria that live in the colon. Prebiotics are non-digestible parts of foods that...
 Media Censorship at Olympics in China Mirrors FDA Censorship of Health Product Claims in AmericaBy Mike Adams, August 4 2008 (NaturalNews) The U.S. media is loudly protesting the censorship of their reporters at the Olympics in Beijing.

 Drug Companies Exaggerate Benefits of Osteoporosis Drugs to WomenBy David Gutierrez, August 4 2008 (NaturalNews) Studies published by drug companies exaggerate the benefit of osteoporosis drugs to women who do not have the disease, according to a report published in the journal BMJ.
Drug companies attempt to erase the distinction between osteoporosis and pre-osteoporosis, also known as osteopenia, the report said. But because the risk of fractures is so low in patients with osteopenia, they do not actually need drugs and may needlessly be exposed to potentially dangerous side effects.

Minton, August 4 2008 (NaturalNews) The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has asked manufacturers of antibiotics in the fluoroquinolone family, the most widely known of which is Cipro, to strengthen warnings that taking the antibiotics increases the risk of tendinitis or tendon rupture.

 Road Pollution Blamed for Higher Allergy Risk in KidsBy Leslee Dru Browning, August 3 2008 (NaturalNews) New evidence blames traffic-related pollution for increasing the risk of allergy and atopic diseases among children by more than fifty percent.

 Voting Rights Destruction (Part 2): Lack of TransparencyBy Heidi Stevenson, August 3 2008 (NaturalNews) It is not enough to have the right to vote. The people also need to know that their votes are counted in an open and fair manner. Without that transparency, there is no way to be sure that an election was fair or that one's vote mattered. The result of that lack is a people who have no faith in their government, who cannot trust that members of the legislature or any other administration position truly respond to them. There can be no assumption that the government is supported by its...
 Product Review: Grass-fed Beef and Lamb From 8 O’Clock Ranch By Neil McLaughlin, August 3 2008 (NaturalNews) Nowadays even “organic” food companies often cut corners. Many are trying to peddle conventional (toxic) products under the organic label to earn undeserved profits. Recent scandals with “organic” milk provide just one example. Corporate mergers can have the same effect, for after a company sells out to a bigger company, each and every component in their product is often cheapened while the label you came to trust remains unchanged. This often turns healthy products into unhealthy ones...

 Salaries in the U.S. and Canada Threatened by GlobalizationBy Barbara L. Minton, August 2 2008 (NaturalNews) That giant sucking sound so colorfully described by Ross Perot is heard again this season as companies large and small relocate, close their operations or negotiate for lower wages.

 Crisis Looms as Corporations Seize Control of CommoditiesBy Barbara L. Minton, August 2 2008 (NaturalNews) The global food crisis won’t go away any time soon.

 How to Make Friends and Keep ThemBy Michael Cambray, August 2 2008 (NaturalNews) All books on friendships and relationships emphasize that to be successful in life, it is vital to love your self. If we see only our faults, then we subconsciously expect others to see only our faults. Consequently we are always waiting to be rejected. You are unique, not a carbon copy of anyone else. There is absolutely no need to measure your self against others.
One of the most important features of beginning a friendship is to not be scared. There is a tendency to make assumptions...
 A2 Milk: the Solution to Lactose Intolerance, Allergies and Other Illness?By Lynn Berry, August 1 2008 (NaturalNews) People with assumed lactose intolerance are able to tolerate A2 milk with research suggesting that intolerance is due to the type of milk protein present in the milk given that A2 milk contains lactose. Milk contains two main types of proteins -- caseins and whey, 80% and 20% respectively. Beta casein represents approximately a third of the protein content of cows' milk and consists of a good nutritional balance of amino acids. Beta casein comes in two forms, A1 and A2, which differ...
