 FDA Leaps from Tomatoes to Peppers in Desperate, Fumbling Fiasco of Failed Food Safety over SalmonellaBy Mike Adams, July 11 2008
(NaturalNews) Watching the FDA trip over its own clumsy self while groping for answers on Salmonella is a sad affair. Following the FDA-encouraged destruction of tens of millions of dollars of perfectly good tomatoes, this confused, bewildered agency admits that tomatoes may not have been the problem after all, and it has now set its sights on destroying the peppers industry. Is there no vegetable safe from the destruction of the FDA?
Tomatoes don't harbor salmonella, by the way. Neither do peppers...
 Lawmakers Examine Whether Drug Ads Are TruthfulBy Jo Hartley, July 11 2008
(NewsTarget) Merck/Schering-Plough has been forced to pull several ads for Vytorin recently due to concerns that the prescription drug ads may be misleading or not truthful with consumers. Vytorin is a prescription drug prescribed to treat high cholesterol. A study questioning Vytorin's effectiveness has just been released.
The most grievous problem with prescription drug ads that are directed at consumers is that they do not give consumers complete information that would allow them to make informed...
 Hepatitis B Vaccine: Good for 'Newborn' Prostitutes and Drug Users, but Who Else?By Dr. Gregory Damato, Ph.D., July 11 2008
(NewsTarget) The Hepatitis B (Hep B) vaccine is considered one of the most controversial vaccines in the pediatric vaccination schedule. Why are we giving it to newborns and what are the adverse reactions associated with such an early vaccination?
What is Hep B?
Hep B is a very rare disease caused by the Hep B virus which primarily affects the liver and is principally spread through the blood. Hep B may lead to chronic infection and cirrhosis (scarring) which may then progress to liver cancer...
 AMA Admits Decades of Discrimination Against Black Doctors (opinion)By Mike Adams, July 10 2008
(NaturalNews) After more than a century of institutional discrimination against blacks in the medical profession, the American Medical Association has finally admitted its role in promoting such discrimination, issuing an apology for all the harm its racist policies have caused over the years. Unknown to most consumers, the American Medical Association barred physicians from becoming members of the AMA unless they were first accepted as members of local AMA chapters, yet many local AMA chapters had...

 Scientists Discover Sea Buckthorn Herb Protects Liver From ToxinsBy Sherry Baker, July 9 2008
(NewsTarget) We rarely give one of our most hard working organs, the liver, much thought unless something goes wrong. Located in the upper right hand side of the abdomen, mostly behind the rib cage, the liver produces and secretes bile into the intestine to help digest fat and it also helps purify the blood by changing potentially harmful chemicals, including drugs and toxins, into harmless ones. When the liver can't protect adequately against chemical assaults, the impact on health can be serious...
 Cholesterol Disease Mongering Reaches New Low with Statin Drug Push For 8-Year-OldsBy Mike Adams, July 8 2008
(NaturalNews) In the latest example of absurd disease mongering to receive widespread media attention, the American Academy of Pediatrics Committee has announced that infants as young as two years old need to be screened for high cholesterol, and children as young as eight years old should be put on prescription statin drugs. This absurd advice is being offered even though statin drugs have never been tested on young children. But the FDA, in its ongoing drug-pushing campaign, has granted approval...
 The Nutritional Origin of the Term "Red Neck" and Other Fascinating Historical Facts About Vitamin DeficienciesBy Mike Adams, July 7 2008
(NaturalNews) There is a long and fascinating history of relationships between nutritional deficiencies and chronic disease. One of the most well known is probably scurvy -- a disease where your bones lose their rigidity due to a deficiency in vitamin C. The historical accounts of this condition mostly involve sailors who, when long sailing voyages, were overcome by this nutritional deficiency. And it actually took hundreds of years before the right scientist came along and discovered that this was...
 Study Shows Meditation Lowers StressBy Sheryl Walters, July 6 2008
(NewsTarget) A team of researchers from China and the University of Oregon have developed an approach for neuroscientists to study how meditation can improve a person's attention and response to stress.
The study, done in China, randomly assigned college undergraduate students to 40-person experimental and control groups. The experimental group received five days of meditation training. The control group got five days of relaxation training. Both groups took tests that assessed their attention...
 Research Shows Disinfectant Wipes Spread Superbugs in HospitalsBy Sherry Baker, July 6 2008
(NewsTarget) First came word that popular antibacterial hand soaps are not only unnecessary (old fashioned soap and water is the best way to keep germs from spreading) but the chemicals in them can harm your health and environment. Now a new study says instead of killing potentially dangerous infections, disinfectant wipes may actually spread drug-resistant and sometimes deadly bacteria.
The research, recently presented at the American Society of Microbiology's General Meeting in Boston, zeroed...
 Leonardo Da Vinci's Prescription for LifeBy Barbara L. Minton, July 6 2008
(NewsTarget) Oh that Leonardo, what a guy! Painter of the Mona Lisa, Vitruvian Man and The Last Supper, scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, sculptor, architect, botanist, musician and writer. The quintessential Renaissance man. Born the illegitimate son of a notary and a peasant girl, vilified for his homosexuality, he conceptualized the helicopter, solar power, the calculator, the double hull, and a theory of plate tectonics. Clearly, Leonardo knew a thing or two about how it...

By utilizing a little known state law, Texans are ensuring that their voices of opposition will finally be heard.
Four rural cities and their school districts have demanded...
