 Study finds that eating fruits and vegetables improves optimismBy Michael Ravensthorpe, January 23 2013
(NaturalNews) Everyone knows that the regular consumption of organic fruits and vegetables leads to superior health, but a new study conducted by scientists at the Harvard School of Public Health has discovered yet another reason to favor a diet of natural foods - individuals who consume antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables on a regular basis are also more optimistic about the future.
The study assessed the blood concentrations of nine antioxidants - including carotenoids, which are a class...
 Danny Glover shows astonishing ignorance of actual history in claim that Second Amendment was to 'protect slavery'By J. D. Heyes, January 23 2013
(NaturalNews) To hear Hollywood star Danny Glover tell it, the writing and adoption of the Second Amendment was motivated by and predicated solely on racism, not as a means of national defense or as a bulwark against a potentially intrusive central government.
As most of today's entertainment and political elite continue to mouth off about how certain types of guns must be limited or banned because they have little to do with hunting (their definition of the Second Amendment's primary purpose...
Intelligent questions not allowed on Sandy HookBy Jon Rappoport, January 23 2013
(NaturalNews) First, I need to comment on a rumor that George Soros has been a key player in buying up gun manufacturers, with the intent of exercising "corporate gun control."
Cerberus Capital Management, based in New York, owns a company called The Freedom Group. Freedom Group bought up Bushmaster Firearms, Remington Arms, and several other gun manufacturers.
So far, attempts to connect Soros to Cerberus or Freedom Group have fallen short. The NRA and factcheck.org state that Soros isn't...
 Top six delicious and simple avocado superfood recipesBy PF Louis, January 14 2013

 Profound solution to emotional and behavioral problems covered up by modern mental health - now revealedBy Mike Bundrant, January 23 2013
(NaturalNews) A simple and profound solution to human problems was discovered by a colleague of Sigmund Freud around the time of Freud's death.
The solution was quietly swept under the rug by the mental health establishment, which is why you have never heard of Edmund Bergler.
It is also why second rate psychology, haokie personal growth techniques and mass pharmaceuticals are widely accepted as the "best we have" in mental health.
Bergler figured out how people become attached to negative...

 The Health Ranger's guide to raising healthy, happy chickens without antibioticsBy Mike Adams, January 23 2013
(NaturalNews) Raising chickens is smart. It provides you a healthy supply of food in the form of chicken eggs, and you'll even have a source of emergency meat if times get really bad.
Chickens largely take care of themselves. They're friendly, curious and smart enough to come running when you call them. They'll devour scorpions, ticks, crickets, and even the occasional small lizard, removing all sorts of insect pests from your property.
I've been raising chickens for several years now, both...
 Shock finding: Most probiotic supplements made with genetically modified flow agents, fillersBy Mike Adams, January 22 2013
(NaturalNews) A Natural News investigation into the probiotics industry has turned up alarming information about how probiotics are formulated and labeled. We've found that nearly all probiotics available in the U.S. market today are secretly formulated with genetically modified ingredients that are intentionally not listed on the label. The most common such ingredient is maltodextrin, a corn-derived flow agent.
Look for yourself at the probiotics available today, and you'll find something curious...

(NaturalNews) One thing you don't want to be during the coming "crunch" -- a polite word for "collapse" -- is dependent on the system. The more you can take care of yourself, the better off you'll be physically, financially, emotionally and even spiritually. Here are 20 ways to become more self-sufficient while you still can:
1) Get a small solar system that can be used to run a laptop or recharge batteries

(NaturalNews) If you live in the United States and work in the healthcare field, your personal freedom to make your own healthcare decisions may soon be on the chopping block, that is if it has not already been nixed. According to reports, an increasing number of hospitals and healthcare facilities across the country are caving to government propaganda pressuring them to illegally terminate all healthcare workers who refuse influenza vaccines, an authoritarian trend that openly violates Title VII...
 Sheriffs are key to protecting Americans from unconstitutional gun lawsBy J. D. Heyes, January 22 2013
(NaturalNews) Local sheriffs are the preeminent legal authority in the country and have the power, by constitutional design, to prevent or refuse enforcement of federal statutes which violate the U.S. Constitution or their oaths of office, according to one former sheriff who has battled the Feds over gun laws and won.
Richard Mack, the one-time sheriff of Graham County, Ariz., said in a recent interview with WorldNetDaily.com that he joined with then-Rivalli County Sheriff Jay Printz in a successful...
 New farm bill gives Monsanto carte blanche - Massive public outcry necessary to stop the legislation from passing into lawBy Carolanne Wright, January 22 2013
(NaturalNews) Imagine judicial review for protecting consumer rights and the environment going up in a puff of smoke and biotech corporations like Monsanto having complete immunity to plant whatever they want, whenever they want -- without testing. This is exactly what a small amendment in the proposed new farm bill guarantees.
The fine printH.R. 5973: Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2013 is legislation that will form agricultural...
 CNN 'Communist News Network' trying to shove gun control down our throatsBy J. D. Heyes, January 22 2013
(NaturalNews) The war on guns is now in full swing and most of the corporate media has dutifully stepped up to play the role of liberal-progressive echo chamber, touting phony polls that asked pre-ordained "gun control" questions, featuring a parade of left-wing politicos and hacks reciting selected anti-gun talking points and advancing straw man arguments as well as "common sense" and "reasonable" policy measures that serve to limit your Second Amendment rights.
Some outlets - ABC, the Washington...

 New world vaccine order striking across AmericaBy Lance Johnson, January 22 2013
(NaturalNews) It is obvious nowadays by watching, listening, or reading mainstream media news that there is a plan, a goal to get as many people vaccinated as possible. The flu vaccine, one of the biggest hoaxes pounded into people's brains, is not just a choice anymore for uninformed victims. It's becoming a mandate in some places. Hospitals across America are beginning to implement flu vaccine mandates, forcing their staff to comply or lose their job. Some are bending to this new world vaccine...

 Founding Father and Continental Army Surgeon General predicted the medical tyranny of todayBy Mike Bundrant, January 22 2013
(NaturalNews) Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship to restrict the art of healing to one class of men and deny equal privileges to others; the Constitution of the Republic should make a special privilege for medical freedoms as well as religious freedom.
- Benjamin Rush (1746-1813)
Benjamin Rush was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and Surgeon General to the Continental Army. He was also...
 Not just obesity: Junk food causes osteoporosisBy Ben Meredith, January 22 2013
(NaturalNews) Everyone knows that foods high in fat or sugar are unhealthy in large quantities. Especially given the high rates of obesity in America, we are hearing more and more about the importance of healthy eating habits. It's time to factor in another reason, however: a poor diet can lead to osteoporosis.
Ron Zernicke (dean of University of Michigan's School of Kinesiology) and Cy Frank (executive director of the Alberta Bone and Joint Health Institution) have verified that sugar and fat...
 Doctors regularly give in to patient pressure to prescribe brand-name drugsBy David Gutierrez, January 22 2013

Doctors who reported marketing relationships with pharmaceutical companies were significantly more likely to report having yielded to such...
 COPD Treatments: Easy lifestyle changes to improve quality of lifeBy Samantha Davis, January 22 2013
(NaturalNews) Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is mainly caused by smoking. Subjecting the lungs to cigarette smoke for a prolonged period of time degenerates and damages the healthy cells of lungs and with time, breathing becomes compromised. Much of the COPD treatments are aimed at preventing further damage and making a patient feel better. COPD, most often, is a combination of two conditions: chronic bronchitis, where bronchial tubes that carry air become inflamed and produce a lot...

 Police trick entire school full of students into providing handwriting samples for crime investigationBy J. D. Heyes, January 21 2013
(NaturalNews) In a tactic that is not likely to inspire future cooperation or confidence in police, officers in Northampton, Mass., have tricked every student in the local high school into providing them with handwriting samples as part of an investigation.
In what is becoming increasingly common among local, state and especially federal law enforcement, every student in school was presumed guilty until proven innocent after officers in charge of investigating a threatening note convinced school...

 Berries dramatically slash heart attack riskBy Sherry Baker, January 21 2013
(NaturalNews) Imagine how excited Big Pharma executives would be if they could come up with a drug that could slash women's risk of heart attacks by one-third. To top it off, what if this prescription could be conveniently taken three times a week and -- as an added bonus -- what if the medicine tasted great and had no side effects? Drug makers would have doctors pushing these pills as a "miracle drug" and Big Pharma would rake in millions of dollars.
However, there's no drug that can do all of...

 Lobotomies done with an ice pick: Take a ride on psychiatry's 'loboto-mobile'By Mike Bundrant, January 21 2013
(NaturalNews) Yes, it is true. Modern psychiatrists stand on the shoulders of the mobile lobotomist, Dr. Walter Freeman (1895 - 1972). Good ole Dr. Walt pioneered the lobotomy, relieving thousands from what he called "the burden of consciousness."
His weapon of choice was an ice pick, which he hammered into the eye socket of his victims. Once the ice pick hit home, he would slash it back and forth, effectively destroying the tissue of consciousness or frontal lobe.
Better yet, if you couldn't...
 Chlorinated tap water linked to upsurge in food allergies worldwide: studyBy Jonathan Benson, January 21 2013
(NaturalNews) Thousands of communities across the country and around the world add it to their water supplies to ensure that their water is safe for human exposure and consumption.

Researchers from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx made this...
 Resveratrol shields against high blood sugar surges to prevent diabetic complications and improve cardiovascular healthBy John Phillip, January 21 2013
(NaturalNews) Allopathic practitioners and the pharmaceutical giants enjoy promoting natural compounds including resveratrol as worthless, akin to snake oil and frequently attempt to convince the public that they are wasting their money by using these supplements. Naturally, the big medical concerns make huge profits by selling a host of prescription drugs that account for more than 100,000 deaths every year, even when taken as prescribed. Not a single death has been recorded from using resveratrol...

 Alternative mesothelioma treatment is possibleBy John McKiernan, January 21 2013

 Regular consumption of soda linked to depression, study findsBy Michael Ravensthorpe, January 10 2013
(NaturalNews) There are many reasons to avoid soda and other soft drinks: High refined sugar levels, extreme acidity, unnatural and often toxic ingredients, and much more.

The study, which was released in January 2013 and will be delivered in full at the...
 Teachers to receive firearms training in wake of mass shootingsBy J. D. Heyes, January 21 2013
(NaturalNews) In the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, it is an idea that confuses and infuriates left-wing politicos and pundits, but one that has been suggested by others, including the prominent National Rifle Association, as the one that makes the most sense: Arm teachers as a way to help prevent future massacres and protect children.
While a few public schools are are indeed considering arming teachers - including school officials in northeast Indiana and one district in...
 The drugging and mutilating state of birth in AmericaBy Lance Johnson, January 21 2013
(NaturalNews) In America today, it is acceptable to treat birth like a disease. With little regard for human life and natural body processes, the American medical establishment drugs and mutilates expectant mothers.
Ironically, the natural way, through the care of a midwife, is becoming the illegal way in many states. Backwards laws that prohibit midwife practice, assist the American medical establishment in gaining control over birth as they use caesarean section and drugs as their money-driving...
 Era of thought crimes now here as psychiatrists given 'Judge Dredd' authority to strip citizens of their constitutional rightsBy Mike Adams, January 21 2013
(NaturalNews) Most Americans operate under the assumption that your thoughts are your own private business and that they cannot be used against you to forfeit your rights and freedoms. It's only actions that matter when it comes to being judged, right? Merely thinking something doesn't mean you're going to act on it, right?
Enter Barack Obama and his 23 executive orders issued last week. (And don't forget New York mafia Governor Cuomo and his new "psychiatric police" law.) Suddenly merely thinking...
 Article updated with new message from the Health RangerBy Mike Adams, January 21 2013

 Rand Paul vows to fight unconstitutional executive orders and fight Obama's 'king complex'By J. D. Heyes, January 19 2013
(NaturalNews) One of the U.S. Senate's newest members is proving the old adage that "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."
Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul, like his father, long-serving U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, is a physician. Obviously, both are politicians. And, most importantly, both are a strict constitutionalists, which explains why they have been - and, in the case of the younger Paul, will continue to be, since dad is retiring this month - a thorn in the side of an increasingly imperial...
 Obama's new economy: Hundreds of thousands of PhDs, masters graduates now on food stamps, some work as janitorsBy J. D. Heyes, January 19 2013
(NaturalNews) Once upon a time in America, employment prospects and the chance to become much more successful in life were far better for those who had put forth the extra effort required to obtain higher levels of education. But in today's economy, where the new normal is anemic annual growth rates of one to two percent - rates that cannot lower overall unemployment but which President Obama has nonetheless tried to pass off as "moving in the right direction" - a higher level of education is no...

 Brands to boycott: Naked juice owned by PepsiCo, Odwalla owned by Coca-ColaBy John McKiernan, January 19 2013
(NaturalNews) Pepsi and Coke both sell "natural" food smoothies and other products under the brands Naked and Odwalla, respectively. Both of these so called health food brands have been around for some time now, yet most people are completely in the dark about the corporations behind these creations.
Pepsi and Coke only pretend to support healthy food choices. Both of the industry giants donated millions to defeat proposition 37, the GMO labeling act. And lets not forget, these are the owners...
 12 easy ways to remove acid build-up from your body, alkalize your pH and beat diseaseBy JB Bardot, January 19 2013
(NaturalNews) Most of us over the age of five were brought up to believe life is very complicated and our bodies are a jumble of parts, each with a different name and a corresponding ailment; dozens of diets to overcome the effects of highly complex micro-crap called food; and television punctuated with an entire industry of false promises and dark demons hawking medicines for lesions we didn't even know we had. The end result of this twisted perspective is an outlook that dissects humans, infuses...
 Matrix programming 101: destroy logicBy Jon Rappoport, January 19 2013
(NaturalNews) Once upon a time, in medieval universities, new students enrolled in the Trivium. It was the foundation curriculum. It was required. Its parts were: grammar, logic, and rhetoric.
Grammar: the interior construction of language; the parts of speech; the proper agreement of parts of speech.
Logic: the valid and invalid connections in the course of an argument; the method of proper reasoning; the deductive links in a chain, at the end of which is a conclusion.
Rhetoric: oral presentation...
 Best foods for calming your nervous systemBy Jonathan Benson, January 19 2013
(NaturalNews) Modern-day living and all the busyness and stress that comes along with it can do a real number on your central nervous system, especially if you are not taking proactive steps to counteract this perpetual negative effect on your body. Rather than feed energy and nutrients into your body's productive systems, an overtaxed nervous system typically expends most of its resources just trying to defend the body against attack, whether it be in the form of anxiety, panic, or stress, which...
 Famous BBC DJ Jimmy Savile outed as serial molester and rapistBy J. D. Heyes, January 19 2013
(NaturalNews) British authorities say longtime BBC DJ Jimmy Savile abused scores of children over six decades, with one top police officer observing he must have "spent every minute of every day" thinking about whom to attack next.
Savile, who died in October 2011 at age 84, "groomed the nation," said the officer in charge of the investigation, but that he was "without doubt one of the most prolific sex offenders we have ever come across."

 DNA doesn't lie: Happy children become healthy adultsBy Eleni Roumeliotou MSc, January 19 2013
(NaturalNews) It sounds like science fiction but it is a scientific fact. A happy childhood leads to a healthy adult life. This is what scientists found when they examined the effects of childhood adversities to DNA. They found that the tiny protective caps of our chromosomes, which are called telomeres, shorten prematurely when kids consistently experience traumatic events. Scientists have found that long telomeres are associated with health and vitality, while short ones are usually found in seniors...
