 Super bug breakthrough -- manuka honey may reverse antibiotic resistanceBy S. L. Baker, April 14 2011
(NaturalNews) In less than a week, three different research studies have been released about antibiotic-resistant super bugs. Two were issued as nothing less than dire warnings. For example, as NaturalNews covered earlier, UK scientists are calling for the "urgent need for global action" due to the discovery of a spreading phenomenon -- a gene that is turning bacteria into not just super bugs but SUPER superbugs.
On the heels of that report, the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) has...
 CI files legal complaint against Herbruck's Poultry Ranch for violating organic standardsBy Jonathan Benson, April 14 2011
(NaturalNews) The growing popularity of organic food over the past several decades has positively led to both increased availability and affordability. It has also, however, led to the emergence of "organic" factory farm imposters trying to take advantage of the system by cutting corners and selling not-so-organic products. One such operation, Herbruck's Poultry Ranch (HPR), is the subject of a new legal complaint filed by the Cornucopia Institute (CI) over the company's laying chickens which do...
Choose organics to avoid artificial dyes, pesticides linked to ADHDBy Ethan A. Huff, April 14 2011
(NaturalNews) The US food supply is riddled with petroleum-based, artificial food dyes and synthetic chemical pesticides, both of which have been linked to causing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and other behavioral problems in children. So in order to avoid them, the Organic Trade Association (OTA) is urging parents to shop certified organic, as this is the only food category that is designed to be free of these harmful toxins.
A 2007 study conducted by researchers at the University...
Yeast and chronic inflammationBy Dr. Carolyn Dean, April 14 2011
(NaturalNews) While reading Blinded by Science, an amazing book that you can download for free on the internet at http://www.blindedbyscience.co.uk/ until April 30, 2011, I realized that most of the work I've done for the past 30 years has been ignored by science. I beat my head against the brick wall of medical and scientific complacency because people continue to suffer from the following conditions, and the best that doctors can do is offer them tranquilizers!
1. Yeast overgrowth
2. Magnesium...
Scientists successfully generate electricity using freshwater and saltwaterBy Ethan A. Huff, April 14 2011
(NaturalNews) By simply utilizing what nature has to offer in terms of water, scientists from Stanford University have developed an effective way to generate electricity naturally and without causing pollution. Yi Cui, associate professor of materials science and engineering at Stanford, and his colleagues have developed a system that generates electricity using electrodes and a combination of freshwater and saltwater -- and nothing more.
The process involves the utilization of ions found naturally...
 Woman convicted of murder could face life in prison for trying to protect her autistic son from chemotherapyBy Jonathan Benson, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) The US justice system has turned over a new leaf in judicial insanity with the recent murder conviction of Kristen LaBrie, a 38-year-old woman whose autistic son died of cancer in 2009. According to Essex District Attorney's Office in Massachusetts, LaBrie was found guilty on all charges made against her, including attempted murder, permitting serious bodily injury to a disabled person, permitting substantial injury to a child, and reckless endangerment of a child -- all for making...
Public outcry leads to passage of amended SB 31 bill in North Carolina House, now on to SenateBy Ethan A. Huff, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) Last week, NaturalNews broke the story about what appeared to be a covert attempt at further restricting health freedom in North Carolina. The original version of Senate Bill 31 would have increased the penalty for in-state, non-licensed practitioners of alternative medicine from a simple misdemeanor charge to a Class I felony charge (http://www.naturalnews.com/031953_medical_practice_licensing.html). But thanks to your support in bombarding the NC General Assembly with calls and letters...
 Article updated with new message from the Health RangerBy Mike Adams, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) The article which originally appeared here has been removed because it is no longer aligned with the science-based investigative mission of Natural News. In late 2013 / early 2014, Mike Adams (the Health Ranger), editor of Natural News, transitioned from outspoken activist to environmental scientist. He now runs the Natural News Forensic Food Lab, conducting world-class food science research and publishing scientific papers on food contaminants and nutritional analytics.

 Amid global meltdowns, what is the half life of the U.S. government's fiscal solvency?By Mike Adams, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) Thanks to the recent (and laughable) "largest annual spending cut in history" announced by Obama and Boehner, it is now abundantly evident that the U.S. government is headed toward a complete economic meltdown that will make Fukushima look chilly by comparison. While cesium-137 may have a half-life of 30 years, and iodine-131 a half-life of 8 days, if the U.S. government continues on its current path of spending trillions of dollars it doesn't have, the half-life of the value of a dollar...
 Tell Congress to support the Free Speech about Science Act of 2011By Ethan A. Huff, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) Last year, the Alliance for Natural Health (ANH), a nonprofit organization that works very hard to promote and protect freedom of health speech, came up with a very important piece of legislation called the Free Speech about Science Act (FSAS) that is designed to lift the restrictions on health speech that muzzle natural food and supplement producers from telling the scientific truth about their products (http://www.naturalnews.com/028879_censorship_healing_foods.html). This year, Reps...
 Natural bioflavonoids kill hepatitis C virusBy S. L. Baker, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) Hepatitis C is an infectious disease of the liver that can cause miserable symptoms including fatigue, lack of appetite, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. Caused by a virus, hepatitis C affects about 200 million people worldwide. In the U.S. alone, one to two percent of the population is infected. Not only can this infectious disease cause scarring of the liver, cirrhosis, and eventually liver failure, but a significant number of people with hepatitis C also develop sometimes fatal...
 Congress once again trying to push unconstitutional internet sales taxesBy Ethan A. Huff, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) Republican Sen. Michael Enzi of Wyoming first tried it and failed in 2007, and now he and Democrat Sen. Dick Durbin from Illinois are together trying it again. The bipartisan duo plans to introduce new legislation shortly after Easter that will levy a sales tax on all internet purchases, even if the seller is not located in the same state as the buyer. Besides being wholly unconstitutional, the proposed bill usurps the rightful authority of states, not the federal government, to levy...
 Bees 'entomb' pesticide-tainted pollen in effort to protect themselves from extinctionBy Jonathan Benson, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) A crucial lifeblood to agriculture, bees continue to face threats of extinction by things like pollution and pesticides, both of which are implicated in causing mass bee die-offs, also known as "colony collapse disorder" or CCD (http://www.naturalnews.com/honey_bees.html). And scientists say that because of this massive onslaught of toxins, bees are actually entombing, or sealing off, their hive cells in an attempt to quarantine polluted pollen and prevent it from destroying the entire...
 Elementary students fondle breast implants as part of 'Career Day'By Jonathan Benson, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) Some of the parents of children who attend Shady Grove Elementary School in Glen Allen, Va., are up in arms over a recent "Career Day" in which their young ones were exposed to some questionable show-and-tell props. According to a recent report by NBC 12 in Richmond, a local plastic surgeon brought silicon breast implants as part of his presentation, and allowed the young children to touch them.
"I'm still shocked and appalled that my nine-year-old saw and touched a breast implant...
 Memo from your brain: Please excuse this disruption in serviceBy Mike Bundrant, April 13 2011
(NaturalNews) We apologize for this lapse in functioning due to circuit overload. Our technicians are working to repair the malfunction as quickly as possible. Please stand by...
Incessant mind chatter, spinning thoughts and the chronic bodily tensions that accompany an overactive mind are par for the course today. Most people who live with chronic stress seem to think it is just another symptom of high tech, full catastrophe living. No worries! We are all maxed out these days, right?

 Europeans warned to avoid drinking milk or eating vegetables due to high radiation levelsBy Mike Adams, April 12 2011
(NaturalNews) The radiation risk from Fukushima is "no longer negligable," says CRIIRAD, the French research authority on radioactivity. It is now warning expectant mothers and young children to avoid drinking milk or rainwater. They should also avoid certain types of vegetables and cheese due to the dangerously high levels of radiation they may contain thanks to the radioactive fallout spreading across the globe (http://www.euractiv.com/en/health/radiation-risks-fukushima-longer-negligible-news...
 Fukushima raised to level 7 Chernobyl event, Japan admits more radiation escaped than we were toldBy Mike Adams, April 12 2011
(NaturalNews) The title of this article probably should have been "TOLD YA SO." After all the downplaying, all the denials, all the disinfo and deceptions by both the nuclear industry and the mainstream media, it finally emerges that the amount of radiation released by Fukushima was far, far higher than what we were told. How high? So high that the Fukushima catastrophe has now been raised from a level 5 event to a level 7 event on the International Nuclear and Radiological Event Scale (http://www...
Fukushima radiation taints US milk supplies at levels 2000 percent higher than EPA maximumsBy Ethan A. Huff, April 11 2011
(NaturalNews) The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) continues to release new data showing that various milk and water supply samples from across the US are testing increasingly high for radioactive elements such as Iodine-131, Cesium-134, and Cesium-137, all of which are being emitted from the ongoing Fukushima Daiichia nuclear fallout. As of April 10, 2011, 23 US water supplies have tested positive for radioactive Iodine-131 (http://opendata.socrata.com/w/4ig7-9eqd/y34g-bnf3?cur=TgjW3mRumyl&from=root...
 Public school bans students from bringing lunches from home, forces them to eat cafeteria foodBy Ethan A. Huff, April 12 2011
(NaturalNews) Individual responsibility and personal freedom are becoming a thing of the past in the nation's public schools, as strict control over what students can and cannot eat -- or bring to school to eat -- escalates to near-dictatorial levels. The Chicago Tribune reports that for the past six years, Little Village Academy on Chicago's West Side has prohibited students from bringing their own lunches from home, a policy that many say subverts parental authority and violates students' rights...
 Radiation protocols and detoxificationBy Sherry L. Ackerman, Ph.D., April 12 2011
(NaturalNews) I was having a bowl of miso and dulse soup the other night with my friend, Susan. We were talking about all of the other protocols that we, as West Coasters, were practicing to protect ourselves from any potential radiation toxicity that might incur from Fukushima. I am a long-time raw food vegan, so the new protocols haven't really triggered any radical detoxification. Susan, on the other hand, has been eating a standard American diet. So, it suffices to say that the new protocols...
 Doctors don't tell patients the truth about the treatments they'd use themselvesBy S. L. Baker, April 12 2011
(NaturalNews) Hopefully, this will never happen to you, but consider this scene: you've been diagnosed with a life threatening condition like colon cancer. So you sit down in your doctor's office to discuss your medical options with your physician and it turns out there are a couple of treatments.
"What would you do, doctor, if you were in my position?" would be a logical question to ask.
And, most likely, you'd expect an honest answer. The trouble is, you might very well not be told the truth...
 Researchers discover bacteria responsible for spawning deadly 'super superbugs' in New Delhi water suppliesBy Jonathan Benson, April 12 2011
(NaturalNews) Tens of millions of Indians are regularly being exposed to a very serious "superbug" gene through their water supplies, says a new study published in the journal The Lancet. Mark Toleman and Timothy Walsh from the Cardiff University School of Medicine in the UK say that New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase 1 (NDM-1) is responsible for spurring the growth and spread of both antibiotic-resistant superbugs, and now even "super superbugs" -- and this sinister gene is turning up all around the...
Real health care begins with youBy Dennis Mason, C.P.T., April 12 2011
(NaturalNews) For a good number of years now, there has been a lot of talk and debate concerning the effects of our political, financial and social situations. The world economy, environment, wars and health issues are all jockeying for the top positions of importance to all of us as residents of the planet Earth. Much of the talk revolves around the need for economic stability, energy, the quality of life, the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breathe. An ever increasing area of concern...
 No end in sight for Fukushima disaster as bureaucrats battle the laws of physicsBy Mike Adams, April 11 2011
(NaturalNews) As the famous physicist Dr. Michio Kaku said on April 4th, "The situation at Fukushima is relatively stable now... in the same way that you are stable if you hang by your fingernails off a cliff, and your fingernails begin to break one by one." (http://bigthink.com/ideas/37705). That same article also refers to the Fukushima damage assessment by the NRC's Nuclear Safety Team, which concluded that "cooling to the core of Unit 1 might be blocked by melted fuel and also by salt deposits...
 Made in Japan?By Randall Neustaedter OMD, April 11 2011
(NaturalNews) Hold onto your chelators folks. And watch out for those Made in Japan labels on products. Are you worried that your seaweed may be radioactive? Should you eat that shrimp at the gourmet restaurant? Take that krill oil supplement? Start bowing to colleagues rather than shaking hands? Carry a Geiger counter?
Fish and other imports from Japan are now showing varying levels of radiation.
We are entering a strange era where Japanese products will all be suspect, and food manufacturers...
 The people of JapanBy Mark Sircus., AC, OMD, DM (P), April 11 2011
(NaturalNews) In Japan today we are witnessing a noble people being put to the test. In fact the entire world, with all its peoples and governments, are going to be tested against the sheer power of nuclear contamination that knows little of time and space. Radiation moves rather freely through space and some forms of it stay around for so long we might as well say forever.
This catastrophe comes at an especially bad moment compounding other disasters just waiting to happen in areas of finance...
 Sperm counts continue to plummet, say researchersBy Jonathan Benson, April 11 2011
(NaturalNews) Environmental pollution, plastic chemicals, pharmaceutical drugs, pesticides, unhealthy diets, radiation-emitting technologies -- these and many other factors are contributing to an epidemic decline in sperm counts among modern men, say researchers. According to reports, an estimated eight million US couples now have fertility problems, and about half of these cases involve men with poor sperm quality.
Today's men have much lower sperm counts than men did just 50 years ago. Before...
