(NaturalNews) A worldwide decline in sperm quality has been a pressing concern for a long time, and there is no shortage of studies to verify this worrying trend. According to a new study by researchers from the Department of Preventative Medicine and Public Health at the University of Murcia in Spain; however, the problem might be worse than previously anticipated: Sperm quality in young Spanish males has declined by up to 38 percent in one decade alone.
The researchers, who monitored the spermatozoid...
 Treat carpal tunnel successfully with acupunctureBy PF Louis, February 4 2013
(NaturalNews) If you see someone wearing a wrist splint, it's likely due to carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Many attribute the rise of CTS to poor computer ergonomics or uncomfortable body positioning for long hours.
Symptoms include hand weakness, numbness and/or tingling of thumb and fingers except the little finger, and pain from the wrist area throughout the palm side of your forearm.
The carpal tunnel is a tube bound by bones and ligaments in the wrist area on the palm side of the hand....
 Finally - A truly simple way to improve mood and boost energyBy David Gutierrez, February 4 2013
(NaturalNews) Although it has been well established that a better diet leads to higher energy levels and improvements in mood, completely reconfiguring your diet can be a daunting task.

Life without guns is a beautiful thing, isn't it?By Jon Rappoport, February 4 2013
(NaturalNews) Vietnam was all right. No problem. So was the covert war in Nicaragua and El Salvador. Ditto for Iraq I and II and Afghanistan. All necessary and proper and good. Lives destroyed? Who cares?
The US government's possession of weapons and their use? Well, of course they needed all those weapons. How else could the wars be fought?
Guns in hands of government are a completely different issue than guns in the hands of citizens. You do see that, don't you? Government knows what to do...
 Article updated with new message from the Health RangerBy Mike Adams, February 4 2013

 DNA tests conducted in aftermath of horse meat scare reveal Burger King has been serving ground-up aliens as Whoppers (satire)By Mike Adams, February 3 2013
(NaturalNews) If you've been eating at Burger King recently, you've been snarfing down ground-up alien flesh. That's the result of a new DNA test that Burger King ordered after its recent horse meat scare in which one of its food processors admitted using horse flesh alongside beef.
What Burger King didn't expect to find was all the other DNA in its burger meat. DNA tests showed meat derived from flesh containing 56 chromosomes. Humans only have 23 pairs of chromosomes, or 46 total.

 Twitter turning over huge amounts of user data to U.S. governmentBy Ethan A. Huff, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) Social networking giant Twitter has released a new report outlining all subpoenaed, court ordered, and search warranted requests made by the U.S. government for private information about the site's users throughout the past year. And based on the figures, not only is the overall number of such requests steadily expanding, but Twitter is also increasingly being coerced into releasing this confidential data without legitimate probable cause or warrant.

 Hundreds of thousands of Master's degree holders, PhDs on food stampsBy Jonathan Benson, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) Shelling out tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars for higher education may no longer be the surefire path to a great career that it used to be. A recent report compiled by the education resource group OnlineColleges.net found that more than 300,000 Americans with either Master's degrees or Ph.D.s were receiving food stamps in 2010 -- and many more are likely on some form of government assistance today as economic conditions since that time have only continued to worsen.

 Vicodin leaves trail of dead patients in its wakeBy Ethan A. Huff, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) A federal advisory panel whose purpose it is to guide the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in establishing drug labeling and marketing policy has urged the agency to step up its labeling requirements for the popular painkiller Vicodin (hydrocodone) following a trail of dead patients. According to the Los Angeles Times (LAT), the panel voted 19-10 recently to recommend that the FDA reclassify hydrocodone combination drugs as Schedule II narcotics, which would put them in the same...
 Flu 'epidemic' numbers don't add up: Vaccine scare tactics strike againBy Jonathan Benson, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) The federal government has a nasty habit of hyping up the severity of the flu every year in order to scare as many people as possible into getting annual flu shots; and this year is no exception. Even though available scientific data fails to show that flu shots even work as promised, authorities are continuing to push them on the public anyway, citing shaky figures about alleged infection rates that leave more questions than answers as to whether or not this year's flu "epidemic" is...
 REM sleep disorder may lead to untimely death of brain cells, causing Alzheimer's and Parkinson's and other diseasesBy Healthy Times Newspaper, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) Although their genetic underpinnings differ, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease are all characterized by the untimely death of brain cells.
What triggers cell death in the brain? American neurologists and sleep experts suggest in a recent study that rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder could be an early sign of Parkinson's disease or dementia that develops 25 to 50 years later.
Neurologist and sleep specialist Dr. Bradley F. Boeve and...

 California passes sweeping new 'animal abuse' laws that give government massive new powers over animal ownershipBy Ethan A. Huff, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) If you live in California and own pets or livestock, you could soon be criminalized as an animal abuser for things like letting your livestock roam on pasture or transferring ownership of rare-breed animals in a parking lot. Two new laws recently passed under the auspices of animal protection actually threaten to eliminate animal ownership throughout the state, as they re-categorize normal animal rearing methods as acts of abuse worthy of criminal fines and unwarranted seizure of said...
 Achieve peak mental performance with NeurofeedbackBy Mike Bundrant, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) This article contains the reflections of my colleague, Terri Phillips, MFT.
The beginning of every New Year is a time to reflect on the past year and set new goals. It's easiest during first two months of the year to try to maintain those goals, whether they are to lose weight, be more organized, get a new job, decrease your debt, work out more faithfully, or spend more family time.
Sometimes, as the new year progresses, our motivation to continue with goals often fades and we...
 Squatting to defecate improves colon health and lowers hemorrhoid riskBy Michael Ravensthorpe, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) While few people can deny that the modern flush toilet - pioneered in 1591 by Sir John Harrington but refined numerous times thereafter - is a marvel of engineering, an increasing number of researchers are starting to question the health implications of the 'sitting' position they force their users to adopt. Why are hemorrhoids, for instance, so common in the West but comparatively rare in countries in which squatting is necessary or preferred? Is it possible that modern toilets, despite...
 No time to hit the gym? Rake the lawn instead, scientists sayBy David Gutierrez, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) Good news for busy people: you can get just as much health benefit from a series of disconnected bouts of exercise as short as a minute or two each as you can from a single 30-minute workout, according to a study conducted by researchers from Oregon State University and published in the American Journal of Health Promotion.
"Our results suggest that engaging in an active lifestyle approach, compared to a structured exercise approach, may be just as beneficial in improving various...

The Art of Food Deception (Opinion)By Hesh Goldstein, January 28 2013
(NaturalNews) It's amazing how much we take for granted. We assume that all the food in the supermarkets and natural food stores are safe to eat. What we don't realize is the reality of the sinister plot to reduce the population. That was covered in part in a previous article that I wrote entitled "The Ultimate Conspiracy". But, for now, how does food fit in to that ultimate conspiracy?
If you had to choose the perfect weapon that would immobilize, control and destroy the people, what would that...

 USDA school lunch reform rules are a complete hoax: here's the proofBy Mike Adams, February 2 2013
(NaturalNews) With huge fanfare and an overdose of propaganda, the U.S. government is announcing it's going to reform school lunches and vending machines to eliminate junk beverages like sodas. "Under new rules the Department of Agriculture proposed Friday, school vending machines would start selling water, lower-calorie sports drinks, diet sodas and baked chips instead," reports the Washington Post.
Except, here's the problem: We heard this same hoax six years ago when Bill Clinton was widely...
 Morningland Dairy destroyed by feds, $250,000 inventory stolen by government thugs during armed raidBy Ethan A. Huff, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) There is a reason why America's founding fathers were willing to shed their own blood to gain independence from the crushing authoritarianism of the Crown of England. Nearly three years after first becoming a target for destruction by state and federal government agencies, Morningland Dairy of Mountain View, Missouri, has officially and forcibly been driven out of business by a rogue police state that recently confiscated, at gunpoint, most of the farm's inventory of perfectly safe...
 Stop coughing with these nine remedies - Control coughs from flu, bronchitis, asthma, pneumonia and COPDBy JB Bardot, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) Coughing always involves some type of irritation in the upper respiratory tract. It may be associated with a case of the flu, sinusitis, congestion, post nasal drip, or pneumonia. Additionally, coughing may be the result of chronic bronchitis, emphysema or COPD. Aside from over-the-counter cough suppressants or steroid drugs, there are no really effective conventional cough remedies.

 Beta carotene may protect from genetic Type II diabetesBy Sherry Baker, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) A genetic predisposition to Type II diabetes is found among more than half of the U.S. population. But if this form of the disease "runs" in your family, you can lower your risk by losing weight and exercising. However, Stanford University School of Medicine investigators have found a specific nutrient -- beta carotene -- may also impact the genetic risk and could offer protection from the disease.
The genomes of 50 to 60 percent of Americans carries two copies of a gene variant...
 Careless prostate cancer surgeons leave 16 surgical objects in patient's body resulting in deathBy Ethan A. Huff, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) A German family is seeking damages of more than $100,000 from an unnamed hospital they say negligently left surgical tools inside the body of a close family member who was treated for prostate cancer.

 Reduce widespread inflammation in your body with these foodsBy Jonathan Benson, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) A primary cause of chronic illness for many people is systemic inflammation, and particularly the kind that goes unaddressed or even mostly unnoticed until it eventually progresses into a full-blown chronic disease. High blood pressure, bacterial and viral infections, arthritis, acid reflux, premature aging, heart disease, cancer, and many other common health conditions are often associated with, or even the product of, systemic inflammation, which means the only real way to counteract...
 Boost anti-cancer effect of broccoli with broccoli sproutsBy Sandeep Godiyal, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) Broccoli has always been regarded as one of the most essential vegetables for health and nutrition not only because it is nutrient-packed, but because several studies have already demonstrated its ability to fight off cancer. But according to more recent studies, the cancer preventing properties of broccoli can become a double threat against cancer when combined with broccoli sprouts.

 State medical boards are creating doctor shortages, harming your healthBy David Gutierrez, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) The removal of antiquated regulations designed to increase doctor profits could end doctor shortages in half of U.S. states, according to a study conducted by researchers from the University of Virginia.
Many state medical boards have a policy that in order to get a state license, foreign-educated physicians - - who account for more than a quarter of practicing doctors - must serve a longer residency than physicians educated domestically. A state license allows a doctor to practice...
 Nine lessons for living longer from the people who've lived the longestBy Mike Bundrant, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) To locate the first known seekers of longevity we'd have to travel to ancient Ethiopia, where the Greek historian Herodotus informs us existed a very special kind of water that could prolong life. Even Alexander the Great was said to have journeyed there in search of perpetual youth.
As provocative legends tend to do, this one made it around the world, pausing for a time to inform Middle Eastern fables before moving on to Europe during the Age of Exploration. Finally, it ended up...
 Is your television watching YOU? Smart TVs can spy on their ownersBy J. D. Heyes, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) It sounds like some wild conspiracy theory or like something out of a science fiction movie, but it's true: it's possible that while you're watching your television, it could be watching you.
A security firm has discovered a glitch in Samsung's Smart TV that "can give hackers access to the device's built-in camera and microphones, allowing them to watch everything you do," RT.com reported recently.

 Newsflash to psychiatry: a human being is not a thingBy Jon Rappoport, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) The ability to separate components of a machine, to increase the efficiency and power of each component, to link up all the elements in smoother ways; this is one of the hallmarks of the technological society.
And when the current machine is superseded by a new one, the process of improving efficiency starts all over again.
But a human being is not a machine, because consciousness is not a machine.

 Facebook makes people miserable, reveals new researchBy Ethan A. Huff, February 1 2013
(NaturalNews) People who regularly engage in the unrealistic and egomaniacal world of social media behemoth Facebook could be making themselves sick, at least mentally. A comprehensive report on the long-term health effects of using Facebook has found that many of the site's users, and particularly those that use it "passively," are far more prone to develop unhealthy feelings of envy, loneliness and all-around misery compared to those who spend most of their time living in the real world.

 U.S. virologists intentionally engineer super-deadly pandemic flu virusBy Ethan A. Huff, January 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Two American researchers whose efforts to deliberately re-engineer the H5N1 avian flu virus to be more virulent and deadly to humans are now asking that a government-advised moratorium on their controversial research be lifted. According to TIME, the duo alleges that precise details about how it developed the deadly flu strain must be made public, and that its controversial research be allowed to continue for the sake of "public health."

 U.S. military 'psyop' terrorizes Houston residents with military helicopters, gunfire and assault teamsBy Jonathan Benson, January 31 2013
(NaturalNews) Unconstitutional gun control proposals, unmanned drone patrols on American soil, and unannounced military drills in residential neighborhoods -- these are just a few of the many tactics the globalist-hijacked federal government is now using to instill fear in American citizens for the eventual purpose of taking over the country and enslaving the population under a military dictatorship. And one of the latest demonstrations of force to achieve this evil endgame occurred in a neighborhood...
 Scientists now ridiculously claiming alcohol addictions can be cured with vaccine shotsBy Ethan A. Huff, January 31 2013
(NaturalNews) As predicted, the mainstream scientific community's obsession with vaccines has reached a new pinnacle of absurdity as researchers from Chile are now claiming to have successfully developed a vaccine to treat alcoholism. According to reports, the vaccine allegedly works by triggering immediate hangover symptoms the moment alcohol enters the body, which of course is meant to deter drinkers from imbibing.
The concept is so ludicrous that reports of it almost seem like satire news stories...

But one little-known fact about Kennesaw, Georgia, population 30,000, is that heads of household living in the town are required by law to own at least one firearm. And this atypical mandate has played a crucial role in making Kennesaw the safe, family-friendly town that it is today.

 Magnesium and Atrial FibrillationBy Dr. Carolyn Dean, January 31 2013
(NaturalNews) "Create the Disease and Offer the Cure" appears to be the overriding mandate of allopathic medicine subsuming what I learned in medical school - "First Do No Harm."
The most recent "disease" is asymptomatic atrial fibrillation. The article on a physician's site reads "Asymptomatic Atrial Fibrillation: Should You Be Concerned?" And, of course, the conclusion is 'Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid.' That's the essence of 'marketing disease to the masses' that I talked about in my Death by Modern...
