Studies Prove that Obesity has Nothing to do with Bad GenesBy Sheryl Walters, December 4 2008
(NewsTarget) The current mainstream model of human health tells us that we are predestined to encounter certain illnesses, and that our weight is largely down to genes. Yet scientists in New Zealand are dispelling the common myth that obesity is caused by "bad genes." Scientists from Auckland University's Liggins Institute have discovered that genetic pre-disposition to obesity can be reversed through good nutrition in early childhood.
Their research shows that when a mother is undernourished...
Managing Migraines NaturallyBy Jo Hartley, December 4 2008
(NewsTarget) Anyone who suffers migraines will tell you that the intensity of this kind of attack is not like any ordinary headache. Most who suffer from these attacks will tell you that the very idea of a future migraine is enough to send them to bed in a dark room…and if you've never suffered one you should consider yourself very fortunate. There are, however, natural methods for dealing with the actual migraine attack and there are also natural methods for avoiding future attacks.
The migraine...
Exercise Shown to Benefit Even Heart Failure PatientsBy Reuben Chow, December 4 2008
(NewsTarget) Heart failure patients were once advised not to exercise, in view of the potential risk that their weakened hearts would not be able to withstand the exertions of physical activity. But someone also once said, "if you rest, you rust". And a recent study which was funded by the United States government has shown that a certain amount of exercise, contrary to previous belief, actually benefits heart failure patients.
Details of Study
The study, which was discussed at the American...
Discover Sprouted Nuts and Give Your Pancreas a BreakBy Barbara L. Minton, December 4 2008
(NewsTarget) Nuts are one of the healthiest foods to ad to your diet. Eating nuts not only reduces the risk of heart attack by a huge 60%, but research shows that people who eat more nuts are usually thinner and they have lower levels of LDL cholesterol and reduced risk of osteoporosis. Eating nuts even lowers the risk of cancer and reduces inflammation. Although this resume is quite impressive, nuts can be made even more nutritious, delicious and healthy by sprouting or soaking them. When it comes...
Selenium Curbs AIDS Virus, may Fight CancerBy Sherry Baker, December 2 2008
(NewsTarget) After decades of attempting to fight AIDS with experimental vaccines and drugs, scientists have recently discovered how several natural substances could be powerful weapons against the disease. For example, in mid-November, UCLA AIDS researchers published research concluding that the herb astragalus contains a substance with the potential to possibly replace the side-effect plagued HAART (highly active antiretroviral therapy) currently used to treat AIDS patients. http://www.naturalnews...
 Marine Omega-3 Oils: Readers Report Breakthrough Pain Relief with MoxxorBy Mike Adams, December 2 2008
(NaturalNews) I'm very particular about the products I recommend on NaturalNews, and I'm even more discerning about ones I personally stake my reputation on. When I first announced the launch of Moxxor in October, I was unable to bring you the full story on the pain relieving properties of Moxxor because the product was so new, and few people had tried it.
But now, the word is out: Moxxor offers revolutionary nutritional support for many people suffering from the pain resulting from inflammation...
Study Finds Non-Drug Meditation Treatment Beats DepressionBy Sherry Baker, December 2 2008
(NewsTarget) Clinical depression is far more than feeling blue. According to the National Institutes of Health, more than 20 million people in the U.S. have persistant depression that can interfere with everyday life, impact health and even lead to suicide. Now, for the first time, a study has shown that treatment based on meditation is an effective alternative to prescription drugs, even for people suffering from serious, long-term depression.
The research, just published in the Journal of Consulting...
Green Tea Benefits Type 1 Diabetes and Sjogren’s SyndromeBy Reuben Chow, December 2 2008
(NewsTarget) With its wide-ranging and well-known array of health benefits, green tea is becoming ever more popular as a daily beverage. And a recent study carried out on mice at the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta has found that a compound present in green tea could slow down or even prevent type 1 diabetes. It also lowered the severity and slowed the progress of Sjogren's syndrome.
About Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes also goes by the names "childhood-onset diabetes" or "insulin-dependent...

(NewsTarget) What if you could find a magic potion that would sweeten your tea, create mind blowing delicious cakes and dramatically improve your health? You may be surprised to find that bees create this amazing elixir in the form of honey. That's right, raw, unadulterated honey is nature's oldest sweetener and it also promotes true, radiant health.

Health Ranger Offers Thirty-One Predictions for 2009 - Health, Economy, Terrorism and MoreBy Mike Adams, December 1 2008
(NaturalNews) Making public predictions about the economy, terrorism, politics and health care is always risky business. There are too many variables to track with much certainty, and nobody has a crystal ball that really works. But by looking at the big picture and monitoring trends, we can make some educated guesses about what's likely to happen in 2009.
The list that follows describes my best predictions for 2009. They are based on the honest observation of reality combined with the intelligence...
 Ginseng Found Highly Effective for Weight Loss and Diabetes ControlBy Barbara L. Minton, December 1 2008
(NewsTarget) Ginseng has long been one of the foundations of healing in Chinese medicine, and is probably the world's best known herb. The botanical name panax means 'all curing' in Greek. This 5000 year old healer has traditionally been used as a restorative tonic to increase energy, stamina, and well being. Western scientists have confirmed the efficacy of ginseng for many of the traditional uses. Now researchers are adding to the traditional list, documenting ginseng as highly effective in weight...
 Use Dr. Group's Detox Foot Pads to Look and Feel Your Best (Product Review)By Aria Milan, December 1 2008
(NewsTarget) In this day and age, keeping the body healthy requires a great amount of conscious effort. This is due to the enormous amount of toxic chemicals in our modern environment; these toxic chemicals are in our water and food supply, in the products we apply to our skin, and in the very air we breathe. Most people are familiar with the old adage for achieving optimum health -- eat right and get plenty of exercise. People who incorporate these elements into their daily habits are on the right...
 Easy Steps to Prevent Tooth Decay and Gum DiseaseBy Sheryl Walters, December 1 2008
(NewsTarget) One part of getting older is rotting teeth right and gum disease? It's inevitable that when we age, our teeth will automatically go rotten and we will need fillings. But how true is this? Is it an absolute certainty that we have to have a mouth full of cavities as we get into old age? There is actually a significant amount of evidence that says otherwise. Age is not the issue, the issue is diet.
Dr. Weston Price was one of history's most amazing dentists. He studied many Indigenous...

 Study Shows How Meat Spurs Cancer GrowthBy Sherry Baker, December 1 2008
(NewsTarget) Like to eat meat? Consider this unappetizing truth: When you gulp down a nice juicy steak or hamburger, you are contributing to tumor-fueling inflammation in your body.
In fact, eating a diet rich in red meat has long been linked to a host of ills including an increased risk of several types of cancer. But what is it about meat consumption that could impact cancer growth? Now scientists at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, have found a mechanism that explains...
Three Stages of Truth and Knowledge for a RevolutionBy Dr. Gregory Damato, Ph.D., December 1 2008
(NewsTarget) Much of the people in the western world are ostensibly living unconsciously, locked inside their own minds, too busy to break free of social norms and societal pressures. In fact, when presented with a new or different idea to a pre-existing belief, 96 percent of the population will reject the idea outright while only four percent will be open to the possibility of the inherent truth. It is because of this inability of many individuals to take in new knowledge that much of the present...
 Fruits and Vegetables Regulate the Cell Cycle to Prevent CancerBy Barbara L. Minton, November 30 2008
(NewsTarget) It's amazing that more than 2000 years ago we realized many universal truths, and we did it without the scientific method. One person who really knew what he was talking about was Hippocrates, who said "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food".
We lost our common sense for awhile and fell in love with a disease establishment that claimed science was on its side. Apparently we are now coming to earth again in a new age where science and sense meet. Scientists are now explaining...
 Study Shows Better Osteoporosis Management can Reduce Hip FracturesBy Reuben Chow, November 30 2008
(NewsTarget) According to Richard M. Dell, an orthopedic surgeon at the Kaiser Permanente Bellflower Medical Center, the mortality rate arising from fractures related to osteoporosis is higher than the mortality rates for breast and cervical cancers put together. That is perhaps somewhat surprising, given how much damage we know those diseases are causing. The good news is that recent research led by Dr Dell has revealed that certain proactive measures which promote healthy bones can reduce the hip...
Chia Seeds: The Ancient Wisdom of the AztecsBy Sheryl Walters, November 30 2008
(NewsTarget) Recently I have been putting chia seeds into everything. I have always been into flax and hemp, but I find chia seeds so much more versatile and easy to use.
Chia seeds are an ancient super food that has been used by the Mayans, Aztecs and Incas. In fact, Chia means "strength" in the language of the Mayans, and was considered running food because messengers could run all day with the help of these tiny seeds. Chia seeds were considered medicine and were actually prized more than gold...
 Feeding Your Baby a Rainbow of Nutrition By Sheryl Walters, November 30 2008
(NewsTarget) Have you noticed that your baby gets completely absorbed when looking at bright colors? Vibrant colors stimulate learning and development. Research shows that making your baby's plate of food as colorful as the mobile hung above his/her bed is the best way to ensure your child is getting all the nutrients needed to begin eating solid food.
Why eat a rainbow?
Here's why the rainbow approach works best for baby's first foods:
