No drugs should EVER be mandatory: New Mexico rejects legislation that would force children to ingest psychiatric medication

By J. D. Heyes, April 5 2016
(NaturalNews) In one state, at least, it is no longer permissible to force parents at gunpoint to allow their children to be given dangerous psychotropic drugs. As reported by The New American (TNA), a new law in New Mexico to protect kids from coercive psychiatric screening and medication was approved last year in the state, and now advocates for the law hope it will spread to other states and provide similar protection for children, families and parental rights. As TNA reported further, Big...

By Isabelle Z., April 5 2016
(NaturalNews) Have you ever stopped to think about how that shiny new iPhone made its way into your hands? Many people imagine an immaculate and modern factory where high-tech robots put together these sleek devices, but an undercover video shows just how far from reality this image actually is. The truth is that the conditions in the factories where Apple's products are built are quite inhumane and have been for some time.

Why the failed pharma-based healthcare system is bankrupting America

By J. D. Heyes, April 5 2016
(NaturalNews) Natural News has regularly covered the chronically flawed Affordable Care Act, from the lies the president and the law's supporters told the American people in order to justify passing it, to the epic failures of each Obamacare pillar. With that said, then, it should not come as a surprise to many that over the past year, spending on healthcare was the second largest consumer of private funds, voraciously vacuuming up some $1.9 trillion in real dollars. More importantly, noted Zero...

Antibiotics given to children causes them to become OBESE later in life, research shows

By J. D. Heyes, April 5 2016
(NaturalNews) There are many reasons why antibiotics should not be over-prescribed, the most important being that doing so has led to the evolution of drug-resistant superbugs that don't respond to traditional treatment. Now, however, researchers have discovered another phenomenon related to prescription antibiotics: Their use in children under the age of two can cause obesity later in life, the UK's Daily Mail reports. Just three or four courses of antibiotics is linked to obesity later on...

Study shows terminally-ill cancer patients die faster in hospitals than at home

By S. Johnson, April 5 2016
(NaturalNews) Most people don't want to die; even fewer want to die in a hospital. When faced with the specter of death, most patients would prefer to die at home, but fear they might lose quality care in doing so. According to a recent study, contrary to popular belief, terminally ill cancer patients who choose to die at home not only receive good medical care, but they tend to live longer than terminally ill patients bound to a hospital facility. The authors of the Japanese study, published...

Ginger every day? There's a reason why this spectacular root is so popular

By Ethan A. Huff, April 5 2016
(NaturalNews) Believe it or not, many of the world's most effective healing therapeutics aren't found at the drug store or behind the pharmacy counter: they're stocked on the produce shelves at your local grocery store. Ginger root is one great example of this; especially during allergy season, this spice root can provide lasting relief from sore throats, nasal congestion and all sorts of other health conditions – and all for just pennies on the dollar compared to pharmaceuticals.

France is moving towards a full ban on herbicides that are harming bees

By L.J. Devon, Staff Writer, April 5 2016
(NaturalNews) Three years ago, the European Union strictly limited the use of neonicotinoid herbicides, blocking companies such as Bayer CropScience and Syngenta from selling their chemicals. In that time, honey bee colonies have re-emerged. France's National Assembly are now committed to a full ban on neonicotinoids. If the new biodiversity bill passes the French Senate, the neonicotinoid ban will go into effect on Sept. 1, 2018. Prominent neonicotinoid manufacturer, Bayer CropScience believes...

Did you know that buying commercial eggs from the grocery store indirectly supports the grinding up of male baby chicks while they are still ALIVE? There are all sorts of horrors about your food that you've never been told. The food industry...

POISON PRESCRIPTION: Warfarin rat poison widely used as prescription blood thinner

By S. Johnson, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) Many drugs pushed out by Big Pharma are equivalent to rat poison, but only a handful can actually claim to be rat poison. Meet warfarin: a widely used blood thinner which, prior to being used to treat a common heart rhythm disorder called atrial fibrillation, was used as rat poison. Atrial fibrillation is an abnormal heartbeat that affects 2.2 million Americans. It occurs when the upper chambers of the heart do not dance to the beat of the lower chambers. This irregular and sometimes...

The repeated circle of lies against Andrew Wakefield all trace back to Bill Gates, proponent of global depopulation and genocide against humanity

By J. D. Heyes, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) For years, the medical community, Big Pharma, academia and certain philanthropic foundations have repeatedly sought to discredit and ruin Dr. Andrew Wakefield, a British former gastroenterologist and medical researcher who demonstrated a link between the MMR vaccine and autism. One of the philanthropist organizations involved in the effort to discredit Wakefield is the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, run in part by the billionaire Microsoft founder, who has donated millions for...

What the Health Ranger declared 10 years ago is suddenly today's medical breakthrough: Type-2 diabetes can be reversed with food choices alone

By J. D. Heyes, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) New research has "discovered" something that NaturalNews editor Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, has been recommending for a decade: that diet can control type 2 diabetes and even eliminate it. As reported by the UK's Daily Mail, apparently this truth is just now being "discovered" by researchers at Newcastle University. Researchers there say that a crash diet lasting only eight weeks can reverse the disease, and what's more, even people who had diabetes for a decade watched it go...

Food is Medicine: Japanese diet linked to 15% reduction in mortality rates

By S. Johnson, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) Japan takes the prize for having the longest life expectancy of any country in the world, but it's not just a matter of genes and dumb luck. According to a recent study, Japanese citizens owe their longevity to dietary guidelines introduced in 2000, which have been linked to a 15 percent reduction in mortality. The mass population study, published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ) recently, reviewed the eating habits of 36,000 men and 42,000 women, aged between 45 and 75 years...

Beekeepers compensated in landmark decision after drifting neonicotinoids destroy hives

By Julie Wilson staff writer, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) Two beekeepers were recently compensated by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, after it was proven that a widely used class of insecticides destroyed their hives last spring. Neonicotinoids, which chemically resemble nicotine, were found to have drifted onto the hives from a nearby corn field, and as a result, severely damaged the colony and killed some of the bees. The beekeepers were compensated under a law passed in 2014, which provides reimbursement for beekeepers whose...

By Julie Wilson staff writer, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) Finally, the health implications of bisphenol A, or BPA, are becoming well known as science continues to uncover its harmful array of side effects on humans. The industrial chemical is routinely used as a coating inside canned foods. Because it is also a synthetic estrogen, BPA mimics the body's sex hormones, resulting in countless health problems including infertility, early puberty and cancer. While the mainstream media is doing a better job at educating the public regarding the...

The best way to relieve a stubborn headache is by first figuring out what kind you have: different causes need different solutions

By David Gutierrez, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) When you have a headache, do you immediately reach for a bottle of painkillers? Next time, take a moment first to figure out exactly what type of headache you actually have. That's because the most common types of headaches actually have very different causes, and will respond best to very different treatments. Few doctors take the time to distinguish between these common headache types, which is just one reason that so many people find themselves taking unnecessary and potentially...

By Sarah Landers, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) The biotech industry has been under a lot of scrutiny recently for its part in causing the development of herbicide-resistant weeds, which are becoming a huge problem for farmers. This resistance, combined with the toxicity of herbicides, means that it is crucial that we find an alternative way to get rid of those pesky weeds – and that's where Ibex, a.k.a. "The Terminator," comes in. Ibex is a new invention created in Britain by Dr. Charles Fox who hopes to revolutionize the...

Birds use grammatical structures in their vocalizations; the first recorded use of sentence syntax in non-human species

By J. D. Heyes, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) Researchers have discovered that birds not only use a range of calls to communicate different types of messages, but some can also combine the calls in specific ways to form phrases in order to convey much more complex information. For instance, the UK's Daily Mail reports that Japanese great tits, also known as Parus minor, have been found to tie calls together producing messages that communicate different meanings. Researchers have said that this is the first example they have...

Study reveals that older people who are regularly sexually active have better cognitive function and mental health

By Jennifer Lea Reynolds, April 4 2016
(NaturalNews) According to the American Psychological Association (APA), memory loss and aging go hand in hand. Everything from forgotten keys to the onset of dementia are common as people grow older.

"Blood flow to the brain also decreases over time. The good news is that many studies have shown that the brain remains...

Censored dementia cures Big Pharma doesn't want you to know about

By S. D. Wells, April 4 2016

The skin, lungs and digestive tract will do their job and help you avoid disease and disorder on a daily basis, but what's the "breaking point" and when does dementia really begin, worsen and...

Pesticides leave behind legacy of poisoning and contamination

Approved seafood imported into the U.S. is often raised on a diet of pig feces

By Jennifer Lea Reynolds, April 3 2016
(NaturalNews) Another reason to beware of the toxic ingredients in your food supply is upon us, this time involving the seafood that's imported into the United States. Seafood has long been the subject of concern, from the radiation that's lurking in fish affected by the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, to the child slave labor that's a part of the multi-billion dollar shrimp export industry. However, the latest news concerns the fact that much of the seafood eaten in the U.S. contains pig feces...

By Sarah Landers, April 3 2016
(NaturalNews) According to a ridiculous new obesity study from the University of Bristol, drinking Diet Coke and other diet drinks is healthier than drinking water ... What?

The truth is out: Fewer than 3 percent of Americans have the four lifestyle characteristics of healthy living

By David Gutierrez, April 3 2016
(NaturalNews) There are four easily achievable characteristics that are most strongly associated with good health — and less than 3 percent of the U.S. public has all four, according to a study conducted by researchers from Oregon State University, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and the University of Mississippi, and published in the journal Mayo Clinic Proceedings. The findings have troubling public health implications, said senior author Ellen Smit, PhD. "The behavior standards...

Should women be punished for having an abortion? Of course not! But they should be punished for avoiding vaccines, says the medical murder establishment

By Mike Adams, April 2 2016
(NaturalNews) Presidential candidate Donald Trump stepped in it last week, giving a flippant answer about abortion while being bombarded by rapid fire questions from Chris Matthews, a democratic party political hack pretending to be a journalist. According to Trump's initial answer -- which has since been walked back -- if lawmakers were to outlaw abortion across the country (which will never happen), those who break the law should receive some sort of punishment. This answer predictably set...

By Julie Wilson staff writer, April 2 2016
(NaturalNews) A Texas based healthcare company has been accused of expediting the deaths of hospice patients via drug overdoses in order to increase profits, according to a report by NBC 5.

America's fascist medical Gestapo: NY Times, Washington Post peddle propaganda at the expense of children

By J. D. Heyes, April 2 2016
(NaturalNews) Members of the mainstream news media remain oblivious to the fact that they are no longer the center of the information world, despite the fact that daily newspaper numbers are dwindling, viewers are turning them off, and readers are checking out alternative media sources by the millions. One of the primary reasons why the MSM is shedding viewers and readers is because they continue to push blatant propaganda, especially when it comes to full-throated support for Big Pharma and Big...

Suppression of science: VAXXED gets AXED by Tribeca Film Festival for questioning vaccines... but makes comeback at New York theater

By Daniel Barker, April 2 2016
(NaturalNews) Suppression of the truth regarding vaccine safety was the obvious motive behind the push to prevent the movie VAXXED: From Cover-up to Catastrophe from being screened at the upcoming Tribeca Film Festival, but the the ensuing controversy may actually result in a more widespread promotion of the film and its message. If you're not yet aware of the story, here are the basics: Hollywood veteran Robert De Niro is the co-founder of the Tribeca Film Festival, an annual event which this...

Hawaii considering decriminalizing all recreational drugs for personal use

By L.J. Devon, Staff Writer, April 2 2016
(NaturalNews) It's a bold move, the likes of which hasn't been seen in recent United States history: The state of Hawaii is on the cusp of decriminalizing ALL recreational drugs. If the resolution passes, Hawaii would become the first state to investigate alternative solutions for treating drug addiction other than just locking people up. Instead of imprisoning drug users, Hawaii would look at the situation from a different angle. Drug users caught in a vicious cycle will be able to get professional...

Two men per day receiving prosthetic penis implants

By J. D. Heyes, April 2 2016
(NaturalNews) For most men there are much better things to spend money on, but for some, there is no better investment than a bigger manhood, so to speak, and that explains why more and more are shelling out about $13,000 for a penis implant. As reported by the UK's Daily Mail, a Beverly Hills urologist says the size of a man's member plays a major role in his self-esteem, so having a smaller penis often generates feelings of decreased masculinity – and appeal to the opposite sex. So, men...

New research backs holistic health for chronic back pain: mindful meditation is indeed effective

By J. D. Heyes, April 2 2016
(NaturalNews) Tens of millions of people have long relied on meditation as a way to calm the mind and perhaps even achieve enlightenment, though traditional medical practitioners and others who simply did not buy into the concept have often condemned the practice. Now, however, new research conducted by the Group Health Research Institute shows that quieting and focusing the mind is one way to help decrease chronic low back pain, and without dangerous, habit-forming opioid-based painkillers.

Why are homeopathic, natural healers treated with such disdain when their evidence proves correct?

By J. D. Heyes, April 2 2016
(NaturalNews) The so-called "old order" is collapsing, and that is causing the (present) masters of the universe to lash out in anger. One pillar of the old order is traditional medicine, which of course includes Big Pharma. This is where some of the fiercest opposition to change is coming from, as we have seen with the incessant propagandized criticism of naturopathic and homeopathic healers – despite the fact that these practitioners of more wholesome medicine bring legitimate comfort...

Health Ranger: 'We will never fix health care until we take the profit out of disease'

By Mike Adams, April 1 2016
(NaturalNews) To all the people wondering why hospital visits and prescription drugs are so expensive, the answer is far simpler than you might suppose: It's profitable for the medical system to keep people SICK! In fact, I'm going on the record to state that unless we take the profit out of disease, we will never get health care costs under control. It's just too darned profitable for drug companies, cancer clinics, hospitals and doctors to keep the entire population trapped in a cycle of disease...

Young mom learns she may die of cancer after doctor misdiagnosed and put her through unnecessary chemo

By Jennifer Lea Reynolds, April 1 2016
(NaturalNews) Imagine having a horrible toothache that persists regardless of taking antibiotics or even having your tooth extracted. Then think of how you'd feel if you were told the problem was actually due to cancer, for which you were given chemotherapy and began showing signs of improvement. As if that's not difficult enough, imagine the horror of then being told you were diagnosed with the wrong kind of cancer all along, and that you weren't getting better at all. Unfortunately, this is...

FDA-approved pasteurized milk to blame for rise in allergies and weakened immune function

By J. D. Heyes, April 1 2016
(NaturalNews) For the past several years, as it rose in popularity, "raw" milk – that is, milk that has not undergone pasteurization – has been heavily criticized as being unclean, disease-ridden and dangerous to consume. But a growing body of research and evidence suggests that pasteurizing milk may actually be robbing us of vital protection against major allergic conditions, as well as destroying many nutrients that contribute to much better health, the UK's Daily Mail Online reports...

What drought? Nestle grabs 27 million gallons of water from California's aquifer, pays only $524 to the state

By Jennifer Lea Reynolds, April 1 2016
(NaturalNews) Despite the fact that California's drought has left the state and its residents facing dire conditions, profit-hungry Nestle has continued to collect water from 12 spring sites – 27 million gallons of it in 2013 to be exact – in order to sell their bottled Arrowhead 100% Mountain Spring Water. It's bad enough that the mega company kept obtaining water for their own greedy purposes, taking from a state that so desperately needed it for themselves, but the story worsens in...

Stop autoimmune disease - Functional medicine solutions

By Jonathan Landsman, March 30 2016
(NaturalNews) One of the first questions a patient is asked when seeking medical advice is, "What are your symptoms?" Unfortunately, when medical advice is sought from someone in conventional medicine, the treatment typically starts and ends with that question. But that failure to address the cause of disease - whether lifestyle, environment, diet or even stress - is at the root of an epidemic of chronic illnesses that threaten the health of people around the world, according to Dr. John Dempster...

Experimental GMO crops sprouting up across America, while USDA, the overseeing agency, takes 'industry-friendly approach'

By Julie Wilson staff writer, April 1 2016
(NaturalNews) Experimental crops genetically engineered to withstand high doses of pesticides are growing all over the U.S., and in some cases illegally. However, rarely does the biotech industry suffer repercussions, as the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the agency responsible for oversight, largely ignores violators. Field trials involving genetically modified organisms (GMOs) serve a multitude of purposes, including both industrial and pharmaceutical applications. The USDA, responsible...

How many cities beyond Flint, Michigan, have a lead problem?

By S. Johnson, April 1 2016
(NaturalNews) Reports of children being poisoned by lead-contaminated water in Flint, Michigan, have shocked the nation – and for good reason. Unfortunately, the story of Flint, Michigan, isn't exactly unique. Children across the country are exposed to toxic lead everyday – levels which meet and exceed those in Flint.
