Reconsider screenings for breast and prostate cancer, experts sayBy S. L. Baker, November 11 2009 (NaturalNews) According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, affecting over 200,000 women in the U.S. each year and killing more than 40,000. For American men, cancer of the prostate is the type of malignancy that strikes with the greatest frequency.
The ACS says an estimated 192,280 men will be diagnosed with the disease in 2009 and around 27,360 men will die from it. Based on the assumption that finding breast and prostate cancers in the earliest...
Statin Drugs Cause Muscle Damage Even After You Stop Using ThemBy David Gutierrez, November 11 2009 (NaturalNews) Cholesterol-lowering statin drugs may cause serious and long-term muscle damage that persists even after the drugs are halted, according to a new study conducted by researchers from Tufts Medical Center and the University of Bern, and published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
Researchers have known for some time that minor muscle aches and weakness, known as myalgia, occur in between 10 and 15 percent of patients taking statins, while more severe, persistent pain known...
Stop stomach ulcers with the miracle remedy of cabbageBy Mike Adams, November 11 2009 (NaturalNews) Cabbage is one of the most medicinal vegetables you'll find in your garden (or your local grocery store). It contains powerful medicinal compounds that help heal cancer, but one of its best-known uses is as a natural remedy for stomach ulcers.
Cabbage may not sound like amazing medicine, but in terms of its complex phytonutrient compounds, it's actually one of the most advanced natural treatments for ulcers yet engineered by Mother Nature. Read some of the supporting quotes about...
 Conflicts of interest? Dr. Mehmet Oz owns 150,000 option shares in vaccine technology companyBy Mike Adams, November 10 2009 (NaturalNews) Dr. Mehmet Oz is a huge promoter of vaccines. He's been on television reinforcing fear about H1N1 swine flu and telling everyone to get vaccinated. But what he didn't tell his viewing audience is that he holds 150,000 option shares in a vaccine company that could earn him millions of dollars in profits as the stock price rises. It is in Dr. Oz's own financial interest, in other words, to hype up vaccines and get more people taking them so that his own financial investments rise in value...
 Dean Foods pulls bait-and-switch on "organic" Silk soymilkBy Mike Adams, November 10 2009 (NaturalNews) Until early 2009, Silk brand soy milk was made using organic soybeans. But earlier this year, Dean Foods (owner of the Silk brand) quietly switched to conventional soybeans, which are often grown with pesticides. But they kept the same UPC barcodes on their products, and they kept the product label virtually the same, only replacing the word "organic" with "natural" in a way that was barely noticeable. They also kept the price the same, charging consumers "organic" prices for a product...
Apigenin Phytonutrient Cuts Ovarian Cancer RiskBy David Gutierrez, November 10 2009 (NaturalNews) High intake of foods containing the natural plant compound apigenin might decrease a woman's risk of ovarian cancer, researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School have found.
Apigenin is a class of flavonoid, a phytonutrient (plant compound) family known for its high antioxidant activity. Antioxidants are renowned for removing cell-damaging free radicals from the body, thereby reducing the symptoms of aging and the risk of chronic disease such as cancer...
Young boys need abundant omega-3s for strong bones, scientists findBy S. L. Baker, November 10 2009 (NaturalNews) Regular readers of NaturalNews have long been aware of the importance of adequate omega-3 fatty acids in the diet (http://www.naturalnews.com/omega-3.html). These healthy fats, abundant in cold water fish like salmon, have been found to prevent and/or treat a diverse list of conditions -- from prostate cancer and dementia to heart problems and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Now a study from Sweden provides evidence of yet another benefit of omega-3s. Growing boys who eat foods...
How partially-hydrogenated oils and trans fats destroy your healthBy Mike Adams, November 10 2009 (NaturalNews) Of all the poisons in the food supply, trans fats are perhaps the most frequently overlooked. They're hidden in all sorts of foods, from crackers and baked goods to breakfast cereals. And thanks to intentionally deceptive FDA-approved labeling laws, food products that contain sizable amounts of trans fatty acids can still declare "trans fats free" right on their labels (this clever trick involves reducing serving sizes until the trans fat level drops to 0.5 grams per serving, at which...
Oily Fish Consumption Halts Eye DiseaseBy David Gutierrez, November 10 2009 (NaturalNews) Eating two servings of oily fish per week may halt the progression of a major cause of blindness in the elderly, according to a study conducted by researchers from Tufts University and published in the British Journal of Ophthalmology.
Previous research has suggested that a diet high in the essential omega-3 fatty acids that are abundant in oily fish may decrease a person's risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) by one-third. In the current study, researchers sought to determine...
 Join the Organic Consumers Association's national boycott of "organic cheater" brandsBy Mike Adams, November 9 2009 (NaturalNews) Many popular brands of personal care products use words like "organic" on their product labels or company names, but the products they're selling don't meet organic standards. So the Organic Consumers Association (www.organicconsumers.org) has been waging a public campaign to expose "organic cheaters" and encourage consumers to boycott those brands.
Late last week, a significant victory was achieved for organic consumers: the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB) voted 12 to 1...
Direct Democracy - Why the American People must disband CongressBy Mike Adams, November 9 2009 (NaturalNews) Given that the massive health care reform bill just passed by the House was one of the largest pieces of legislation in U.S. history, you might wonder why you didn't get to vote on it. When it comes to federal legislation, your vote doesn't count in America, didn't you know? You are dictated to by a small band of the political elite who may or may not represent your interests (or even the interests of your fellow citizens).
Those people are called members of Congress. And as you'll...
Genes Have "No Clinical Relevance" in Predicting Disease, Scientists AdmitBy David Gutierrez, November 9 2009 (NaturalNews) Genetic analysis is essentially useless in predicting a person's risk of cancer, heart attack or other common diseases, according to a set of commentaries published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
The decoding of the human genome in 2003 led to a flood of research into the contributions that genetic variation might make to the risk of various chronic diseases that tend to develop late in life, such as diabetes, heart disease or cancer. Since then, a number of for-profit companies...
Sleeping in a dark room may prevent depressionBy S. L. Baker, November 9 2009 (NaturalNews) Do you fall asleep while reading, with a lamp still turned on? Doze off with the glow of a television in your bedroom? Perhaps you turn off the lights when you go to bed. But think about it: is your room really totally dark? Maybe there's a light from a clock radio or night light or perhaps street lights peek through the bedroom blinds. This not-completely-dark room might not keep you awake but it could lead to symptoms of depression. That's the conclusion of a new study presented recently...
Cilantro helps detox heavy metalsBy Mike Adams, November 9 2009 (NaturalNews) Heavy metals are extremely toxic to human neurology. Mercury, lead and cadmium all contribute aggressively to the deterioration of neurological function. Fortunately, there's a simple, natural way to detox your body and remove these toxic substances from your tissues.
The solution is cilantro. It's that magical-tasting herb often used in Mexican food recipes. As it turns out, cilantro not only taste great, it also binds to heavy metals and helps remove them from your body.

Twelve better uses for the 1,990-page health care reform bill (satire)By Mike Adams, November 8 2009 (NaturalNews) The health care reform bill just passed by the US House of Representatives is a walloping 1,990 pages weighing 19.6 pounds. As NaturalNews previously reported (http://www.naturalnews.com/027427_health_care_paper.html), it required the destruction of 319 trees just to print the 1,335 copies produced by the U.S. Government Printing Office for members of Congress.
Sadly, this bill is a complete waste of trees. Rather than reforming a sick care system into a true health care system,...
Massive US health care reform bill contributing to deforestation: 1,990 pages and 19.6 pounds of paperBy Mike Adams, November 8 2009 (NaturalNews) If you want to save the world's forests, don't print out the health care legislation just passed by the US House of Representatives: It's 1,990 pages long and weighs 19.6 pounds, reports the Wall Street Journal, making it longer than the King James Bible.
The U.S. Government Printing Office, has reportedly printed 1,335 copies of the bill, totaling 2.6 million pages of paper. This massive volume of paper required nearly 319 trees to produce. (Source: Conservatree.org) And this doesn't...
Orlando shooter, US army Fort Hood shooter both linked to psychiatric drugsBy Mike Adams, November 7 2009 (NaturalNews) US Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan shot and killed 13 people and wounded 30 others in a violent attack at a Texas Army base this past week. He reportedly opened fire at the Fort Hood army base without any particular reason or motivation. In fact, as a psychiatrist, he had counseled many other soldiers on how to cope with the consequences of extreme violence (losing limbs, mental anguish, etc.).
As an army psychiatrist, he was also allowed to prescribe powerful psychiatric drugs to both...
 Associated Press declares war on alternative medicine (opinion)By Mike Adams, November 7 2009 (NaturalNews) The Associated Press has declared war on alternative medicine, publishing a series of stories attacking everything from nutritional therapies to bioidentical hormones. These stories, which are syndicated across thousands of websites around the world, are prefaced with the following highly-opinionated "Editor's Note":
EDITOR'S NOTE: Ten years and $2.5 billion in research have found no cures from alternative medicine. Yet these mostly unproven treatments are now mainstream and used...
Corn Ethanol Biofuels Contaminated with AntibioticsBy David Gutierrez, November 7 2009 (NaturalNews) Byproducts from the production of corn for ethanol biofuels have been found to be contaminated with antibiotics.
"Ethanol's drug problem is just the latest of many reasons to impose a moratorium on production of fuels from grains," wrote Stan Cox for the Land Institute's Prairie Writers Circle. "If industry cannot supply sufficient quantities of alternative fuels without risking an even deeper medical crisis, it might just be another sign that our thirst for vehicle fuel has outgrown...
New research: resveratrol improves diabetes by affecting the brainBy S. L. Baker, November 7 2009 (NaturalNews) Think of a treatment for diabetes, and you probably think of a drug or natural therapy that targets the pancreas to help normalize blood sugar levels. Resveratrol, a phytochemical found in red grapes, has been shown to have a host of health benefits -- including improving diabetes in animal studies. But, it turns out, that's not necessarily because it benefits the pancreas. Instead, scientists have made an unexpected discovery: resveratrol's anti-diabetic properties appear to be mediated...
"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...

Probiotics found to reduce eczema and skin allergiesBy Paul Louis, November 11 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 during antibiotic use.
This practice is so well known that MD's have begun recommending probiotics during and after antibiotics.
But there is new evidence that probiotic benefits go beyond that. One area of investigative research is building the immune...
Vitamin B12 Deficiency can Look Identical to Alzheimer's DiseaseBy Kerri Knox, RN, November 11 2009 (NewsTarget) When is Alzheimer`s Disease NOT Alzheimer`s Disease? When it`s actually caused by undiagnosed Vitamin B12 deficiency. This frequent occurrence is a tragedy in our society where growing numbers of those with Alzheimer`s Disease are diagnosed every year. Despite having IDENTICAL symptoms in many cases, vitamin B12 deficiency is almost NEVER considered as a possible cause.
Alzheimer`s Disease is a growing personal and family problem as well as a HUGE financial burden for society. And...
Diet is a Key to Preventing and Treating OsteoporosisBy Alex Howard, November 11 2009 (NewsTarget) Osteoporosis is a condition in which bones become weak and thin, and prone to fracture, particularly in the hips and spine. There can be few symptoms of osteoporosis until a fracture occurs, so it can only be diagnosed by a bone scan. Approximately one in four post-menopausal women develops osteoporosis. Certain other factors are thought to be risk factors for developing osteoporosis including family history, heavy alcohol use, hyperthyroidism and hyper parathyroidism, smoking, long...
Escape from Zombie Land by Following Good Sleep PrinciplesBy Gregory Hollings, November 11 2009 (NewsTarget) In the 1930s, people slept on average nine hours per night. Today, many of us struggle to sleep seven hours without any interruption. The constant over-stimulation, the long working hours and the information overload have left us often cranky and permanently exhausted. To bring ourselves back into sync with the Earth`s natural rhythms we need to realise that good quality sleep comes with a slower-paced and more natural lifestyle. By integrating the Good Sleep Principles into your lifestyle...
A Proven Food-Based Cancer Cure the Medical Monopoly Considers Quackery, Part IBy Paul Fassa, November 11 2009 (NewsTarget) Flaxseed oil and cottage cheese for curing cancer? Many have been skeptical of this dietary approach, known as the Budwig Diet. Even Dr. Andrew Weil was quoted as calling it "wishful thinking". Yet over a 50 year period, Johanna Budwig had a 90% plus cancer cure rate in Germany with 4500 patients. Some cancer victims that she cured with her protocol were considered terminal.
Superficially, the Budwig Diet seems more like a South Beach type of diet for losing weight. But there are...
World Health Organization Says Cell Phones can Cause Brain CancerBy Virginia Hopkins, November 10 2009 (NewsTarget) The results of the decade-long Interphone study on cell phone safety are that heavy cell phone use increases the risk of developing brain tumors later in life. The study, which focused on three types of brain cancer and tumors of the parotid gland, found a significant increase in cancer after a decade or more of cell phone use.
When a cell phone tower connects with a cell phone, electromagnetic radiation is created. When the cell phone is held against the ear, this radiation penetrates...
Cat's Claw Treats Cancer and Many Other IllnessesBy Barbi Trejo, November 10 2009 (NewsTarget) There is much talk about cat's claw and its healing properties used for the treatment of cancer, but cat's claw can be used in the treatment of many illnesses. It is not just for cancer, but it is also used in the treatment of asthma, arthritis, gastritis, hemorrhoids, inflammations of the urinary track, kidney detox, healing deep wounds and bone pain. It is also used since the 1990's for the treatment of cancer, ulcers, chronic inflammations, and viral diseases (such as herpes).

Donated organs riddled with diseaseBy Paul Louis, November 10 2009 (Natural News) In both the UK and the USA, organ donor numbers are declining while more who await organ transplants are dying. In the USA 6,000 died in 2001 while waiting for organ transplants, while in the UK 1,000 die annually waiting for organs.
This urgency creates mishaps, such as patients receiving damaged or diseased organs. The diseases are often liver related. Alcoholics and Hepatitis B and C donors not properly screened pass their diseased livers on to those who need liver transplants...
Easy-to-Make Fermented Vegetables Boost Immunity and Improve HealthBy Melissa Sokulski, November 10 2009 (NewsTarget) Eating fermented vegetables can be one of the best things for overall health. Fermentation is an excellent way to preserve food, ensuring fresh vitamin-rich food all winter. It also infuses the body with beneficial microflora which can keep you healthy and strong.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, there are five tastes: sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and pungent. All five tastes need to be eaten for optimum health. Fermented vegetables have a "sour" taste, which is under-eaten...
The Organic, Raw Cranberry Market is Heating UpBy Ethan Huff, November 10 2009 (NewsTarget) They're known for their delicious tart flavor and no Thanksgiving feast would be complete without them. The cranberry has been a Thanksgiving staple since the days of the Pilgrims and this year yet another grower of the organic variety will be dry-picking them, a method of harvesting the berries that allows them to be sold as fresh fruit without losing their flavor and texture.
Roughly 90 percent of domestic cranberries are wet-picked, meaning the cranberry beds are flooded with water...
Synthetic DHA and ARA in Baby Formula is Causing Infant IllnessBy Ethan Huff, November 9 2009 (NewsTarget) For years, baby formula manufacturers have been fortifying and reformulating their blends in an effort to poise their products as equal or superior to natural breast milk. Beginning in 2002, many producers began supplementing their mixtures with synthetic forms of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (ARA), the long-chain fatty acids naturally present in breast milk. Evidence is now showing that the synthetic versions are detrimental to the health of children, despite their...
Protect the Prostate with PomegranatesBy Frank Mangano, November 9 2009 (NewsTarget) How do you keep the prostate healthy? Well, if you watch a lot of TV commercials, you probably think it's best accomplished by popping a pill. But for men looking to prevent prostate cancer through nutrition, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more prostate-protective food than the yummy pomegranate.
The health benefits of pomegranates are well-established. Past studies indicate pomegranates are positively boiling over with antioxidants, as UCLA researchers found that pomegranate juice...
Superfood Profile: Discover the Many Health Benefits of Cod Liver OilBy Elizabeth Walling, November 9 2009 (NewsTarget) Certain superfoods - like cod liver oil - are so powerful they were recognized for their incredible healing abilities throughout many traditional societies around the world. This ancient wisdom was passed down to preserve the health and longevity of each new generation. Yet in recent decades we have managed to squander this wisdom, replacing traditional health foods like cod liver oil with synthetic supplements that can't come close to providing the healing power of a true superfood...
Green tea reduces risk of blood cancers by 42 percentBy Paul Louis, November 9 2009 (Natural News) A Japanese green tea study has determined impressive results regarding the reduction of blood and lymph cancers. Tohoku University researchers found a 42 percent reduction for blood cancers and 48 percent reduction for lymph cancers with high green tea consumption.

Consider the Cause of Alzheimer's Disease (Opinion)By Hesh Goldstein, November 9 2009 (NewsTarget) We, Americans, are losing our minds to Alzheimer`s disease. It is an epidemic and it is not typical of what`s going on in the rest of the world. The World Health Organization estimates that there are 18 million people with Alzheimer`s. Over 4 and1/2 million Americans have the disease. We account for 25% of all Alzheimer`s cases, even though we represent only 4.6% of the world`s population. Europe is experiencing half our rate of disease. For Americans over 85 years of age, 50% are thought...
Breast Cancer Deception Month: Hiding the Truth beneath a Sea of Pink, Part VIBy Tony Isaacs, November 9 2009 (NewsTarget) As we near the end of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, once again our country has been awash from shore to shore in a sea of pink - from pink ribbons and donation boxes to pink products, charity promotions, celebrities by the score and even pink cleats on NFL players. Tragically, most people are unaware of the dark history of Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM) and of the players past and present, who have misused it to direct people and funds away from finding a true cure while covering...

Why Health Care Costs are So High (Opinion)By Hesh Goldstein, November 7 2009 (NewsTarget) Recently, USA Today has been running an interesting series of articles on our ridiculous health care system or, as reality would put it, our "disease care" system. While more and more Americans are concerned with the increasing costs of the U.S. health care system, hawked as the best medical care in the world, the problem is that those that cannot afford it are steadily increasing.
A poll found that eighty percent of those that responded were not thrilled with the $2.2 TRILLION, or...
Learn about the Causes of Free Radical StressBy Alex Howard, November 7 2009 (NewsTarget) Free radicals are atoms or molecules with an unpaired electron. They are very unstable, highly reactive particles, which collide with other molecules in the body, causing them to change structure. These molecules then become free radicals creating a domino-effect or chain reaction with millions of molecules being affected in a matter of nanoseconds. Free radicals are also known as Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) so free radical stress is also known as oxidative stress. There are many causes...
Learn the Truths and Myths of MorgellonsBy Zephyr Faegen, November 7 2009 (NewsTarget) The Mystery of Morgellons disease has been debated for years by medical professionals and lay persons who have dedicated their time to studying this cryptic and debilitating condition. Because of significant public pressure, Morgellons disease has gained significant recognition in the last 8 years and has lead to the formation of independent research groups, and the Morgellons Research Foundation. This all began because of one woman's love for her child, combined with the complete abandonment...
Heed Natural Timing before Infant Introduction to Solid FoodBy Sherry Rothwell, November 7 2009 (NewsTarget) It is commonplace among modern mothers to begin introducing solid food to their babies as early as 4 months of age, yet babies in more primitive societies were mostly exclusively breastfed until 2 years of age. Given the archeological studies, babies` immature and developing digestive enzyme production, along with evidence that prolonging exclusive breastfeeding may also confer health benefits, it may be time for both moms and nutrition experts to reconsider the timing of a baby`s first...
Plantar Fasciitis and Heel Spurs: How to Stop the PainBy Barbi Trejo, November 7 2009 (NewsTarget) What exactly is "plantar fasciitis?" When the plantar fascia becomes inflamed it is called plantar fasciitis. This happens when you use your foot too much, such as an athlete who runs constantly. There can be trauma caused to the heel and this trauma is called a heel spur. A heel spur is a bony growth, while plantar fascia is a tendon thickening that is inflamed and thus ruptures. This rupture causes so much pain that the person can be debilitated.

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...
