 REPPED: Conventional medical researchers around the world are scratching their heads over new research published in the Archives of Internal Medicine that shows a strong correlation between depression and osteoporosis. Amazingly, none of them apparently have the presence of mind to consider the simple, common cause behind both conditions: Chronic vitamin D deficiency.
This new research found that 17 percent of women with depression showed thinner hip bones, while only 2 percent of non-depressed women showed the same thinness of hip bones. |
| Okay, so get this: The researchers somehow believe that taking antidepressants can reverse osteoporosis even while their own research shows that the women suffering from the worst bone loss were already taking antidepressants!
Geesh. Sometimes I have to just sit back and shake my head in amazement when I observe the idiocy in modern medical research. And then when the mainstream media takes this garbage and reports it as fact, I have to vigorously shake my head yet again like a 1980's heavy metal band riffing on a guitar solo. It's like all these people are just complete idiots. |

 In research published this month, it was revealed that Philip Morris used a German research facility to study the health effects of cigarette smoke decades ago. Even though the research showed that both smoking and secondhand smoke are harmful to human health, Philip Morris reportedly concealed the evidence and took significant steps to make sure it would never become public.
Phillip Morris continues to deny that secondhand smoke is dangerous to human health, but if the Lancet report is to be believed, its own research contradicts that conclusion. |

 Members of the public are running around in circles raising money, funding the "race for the cure," dumping their hard-earned cash into a huge financial black hole of so-called research. We're standing by waiting for cures from a scientific community that, it turns out, isn't even interested in curing disease. The industry is far more interested in treating and managing disease, because that's where the profits are found.
If the US medical research companies were interested in real science, they would stop trying to research the disease and start trying to research the causes of the disease. |

 This includes breast cancer, colon cancer, skin cancer and other forms of cancer. This research provides strong new evidence that vitamin D is the single most effective medicine against cancer, far outpacing the benefits of any cancer drug known to modern science.
The study involved 1,179 healthy women from rural Nebraska. One group of women was given calcium (around 1500 mg daily) and vitamin D (1100 IU daily) while another group was given placebo. Over four year, the group receiving the calcium and vitamin D supplements showed a 60 percent decrease in cancers. |
| American Cancer Society opposes vitamin D
This research on vitamin D is such good news that the American Cancer Society, of course, had to say something against it. An ACS spokesperson, Marji McCullough, strategic director of nutritional epidemiology for the American Cancer Society, flatly stated that nobody should take supplements to prevent cancer.
If it seems surprising to you that the American Cancer Society -- which claims to be against cancer -- would dissuade people from taking supplements that slash their cancer risk by 77 percent, then you don't know much about the ACS. |
| This research on vitamin D is a huge threat to the cancer industry profit mongers because it reveals a way to prevent cancer for free -- by seeking natural sunlight exposure and letting your skin manufacture your own powerful anti-cancer medicine (vitamin D). The idea that the cancer industry could lose 80% of its patients due to widespread education about vitamin D and sunlight scares the living daylights out of the cancer industry. |
| This latest research shows that sunlight and low-cost calcium supplements can slash cancer risk by 77% in women. Why won't conventional medicine embrace this low-cost, safe and highly effective method for preventing cancer?
#8: The cancer industry routinely attacks anti-cancer herbs, superfoods and supplements. Why is the cancer industry opposed to anti-cancer nutrition? Why does it believe that only man, not nature, can manufacture anti-cancer medicines? |
| The bottom line in all this? New research shows us that using low-cost calcium and vitamin D supplements (or just natural sunlight), we could slash cancer rates by an astonishing 77 percent. The cancer industry opposes this and is firmly positioned as an opponent of cancer prevention. The industry depends on cancer to grow its own power and profits, and it will invest in the de-education of the public in order to maximize its own revenues.
Cures for cancer exist all around us: Sunlight, rainforest herbs, anti-cancer foods and superfoods, etc. |
| Lappe said further studies are needed to determine whether the Creighton research results apply to other populations, including men, women of all ages, and different ethnic groups. While the study was open to all ethnic groups, all participants were Caucasian, she noted.
There is a growing body of evidence that a higher intake of vitamin D may be helpful in the prevention and treatment of cancer, high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, diabetes mellitus, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis and other diseases.
Humans make their own vitamin D3 when they are exposed to sunlight. |

 REPPED: Consuming processed meats increases the risk of pancreatic cancer, says new research conducted at the University of Hawaii that followed nearly 200,000 men and women for seven years. According to lead study author Ute Nothlings, people who consumed the most processed meats (hot dogs and sausage) showed a 67% increased risk of pancreatic cancer over those who consumed little or no meat products.
But researchers failed to accurately identify the culprit responsible for this increased risk of pancreatic cancer, says one author. |

 And recent research is backing him up. New research revealed by the American Association for Cancer research (http://www.aacr.org/home/public--media/news-releases.aspx?d=945) recently revealed that just three servings a month of raw cruciferous vegetables (like cabbage or broccoli) slashes bladder cancer risk by 73 percent in non-smokers. Other research is emerging nearly every week on the anti-cancer effects of blackberries, sprouts, citrus fruits, salad greens and many other living foods. |

| This new research found that 17 percent of women with depression showed thinner hip bones, while only 2 percent of non-depressed women showed the same thinness of hip bones. The mainstream media is reporting on the study in articles like this one at the BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7109955.stm
The more idiotic media outlets are even reporting that depression causes osteoporosis. See this article in The Hindu: http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/008200711281321. |

 But the mistake in all of this research is leaving out the nutrition factor. They probably performed this experiment on everyday, average Americans, and if so, they got a distorted result, and this is one of the huge problems with much of the so-called scientific research being conducted today. It's actually being conducted on a distorted population, because practically everybody has nutritional deficiencies, is chronically dehydrated, suffers from lack of zinc and magnesium and B vitamins and so on. |

 Meanwhile, these drug companies are claiming they're investing all their drug revenues into research and development to, "find tomorrow's cures." Give me a break. Drug companies spend far more on marketing and advertising than research. And technically, the vast majority of drug company research is funded by taxpayer dollars through NIH grants to research universities. And by, "tomorrow's cures," what they really mean is, "tomorrow's blockbuster seller drug that may technically be no better than yesterday's generic drug."
The whole system is a giant con, folks. |

 The "plasticity" of the striated muscles has been established by the research carried out in monkeys by A. B. Scott in 1994.
This research was aimed at defining whether the extraocular muscular system of the monkeys had the capacity of adapting
(that is, the feature of "plasticity"). The research determined that the monkeys' extrinsic muscles—being held in the state of lengthening through sutures—lengthen at 18%, 25%, and 33%. Obviously, in the case of PVS, muscular rehabilitation and the restoration of extrinsic eye muscle functioning isn't achieved by suturing the muscles. |

 The real reason why disease symptoms appears together
Every time I see another headline about how research scientists have discovered another correlation among various chronic diseases, I just have to sort of laugh about it. Of course, diabetes and heart disease are going to emerge together. Of course, gum disease and heart disease go hand-in-hand, because they all have the same underlying causes.
A deficiency in a single nutrient can lead to numerous diseases that all get diagnosed and treated as if they had separate causes. Take vitamin D, for example. |

 Marlene Fransen, lead researcher, and her co-workers studied 152 men and women over 60 with chronic osteoarthritis. The research team randomly assigned participants to hydrotherapy classes, Tai Chi classes or a waiting group. The classes, one hour in length, were offered two times per week.
After 12 weeks, both groups showed significant improvements on scores measuring pain and physical function. At 24 weeks, researchers found that the improvements had been sustained, with the greatest improvement measured in the hydrotherapy group. |

 Only fools believe research about nutrition that comes from the American Medical Association or its journal. Conventional medical researchers declaring that vitamins are worthless is about as credible as Bush Administration climatologists claiming there's no such thing as global warming.
With the publication of this research, the distortion of health reality is now complete. According to the Americal Medical Association, vitamins will kill you but pharmaceuticals will make you healthy.

 This ground-breaking research is based on nearly 400 peer-reviewed studies of the 17 sunscreen chemicals approved for use in the U.S., an analysis of sunscreen ingredient toxicity linked to 60 industry and government databases on chemical hazards, coupled with customized, product-by-product assessments of protection from both UVA and UVB radiation.
"Always use sunscreen", said Jane Houlihan, Vice President for research at EWG, "but not all sunscreens are created equal." "Our research shows that some products are far more effective than others, while presenting fewer safety concerns. |

Intimidation of critics
Do you know what happens when you're a doctor on one of these panels and you vote against the approval of one of these drugs? Take a guess. Your research money suddenly dries up, and you have no more research grants. Your career fizzles out. In fact, this was happening at the Harvard research Medical Center. One of the people there, Dr. |

 That's their investment in finding some drug, and it's not your responsibility to pay for their research.
The fact is you're paying for their research anyway. Most people don't know this, but the vast majority of new drugs approved by the FDA are based on research that's been funded by taxpayers, not by drug companies. So you're paying for the research anyway, and you're paying for it again when you buy prescription drugs, and you're paying for it yet again when you have to pay for the side effects caused by these prescription drugs. |

 Let's face it: Basing research on the personal memories of people who scientists claim have had their memories destroyed is not exactly good science. It sounds more like an agenda that uses science to support the War on Drugs and the continued incarceration of thousands of Americans whose only crime is getting high in the basement of their parents' house.
I'm no supporter of marijuana or any recreational drug, but if using marijuana to feel better is a crime, then why isn't the same standard applied to prescription drugs? |

 Their research concluded that "there was no significant degradation in the quality" of the almonds. "The validity of these findings is questionable given the vested interests of the research panel," Kastel stated.
The most common method of sterilizing almonds is by propylene oxide fumigation. Propylene oxide is a genotoxic chemical and is listed as a possible carcinogen by the International Agency on Cancer research. In lab experiments, the chemical leads to gene mutation, DNA strand breaks, and neoplastic cell transformation. |
