Diet Sodas May Double Your Risk of Obesity

The study monitored the weight and soda-drinking habits of more than 600 normal-weight patients aged 25-64. When researchers followed up on the patients some eight years later, they discovered:

•Participants were 65 percent more likely to be overweight if they consumed one diet soda a day compared to if they drank none.

•Two or more low- or no-calorie soft drinks raised the odds of becoming obese or overweight even higher.

•Those who drank diet soda had a greater chance of becoming overweight than participants who drank regular soda. July 6, 2005

(NSAIDs) caused a greater than 10-fold increase in the risk of Congestive Hear t Failure (CHF)

CHF, commonly referred to as simply "heart failure", is a disorder in which the heart loses its ability to pump blood efficiently, In addition to NSAIDS, other drugs such as beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers have also been shown to increase the risk of CHF.

Epigenetics

genes can be turned on (expressed) or turned off (silenced)

FDA-approved pharmaceutical drugs can cause persistent epigenetic changes.

Researchers now propose that epigenetic side-effects of pharmaceuticals may be involved in the etiology of heart disease, cancer, nerve and mental disorders, obesity, diabetes, leukemia, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, infertility, and sexual dysfunction. Researchers claim…"consequences for modern medicine are profound, since it would imply that our current understanding of pharmacology is an oversimplification."

Titanium Dioxide (6.0%) & Zinc Oxide (6.0%):

These two active ingredients in Natural Sunscreen are natural minerals. Minerals that actually come from clay and beach sand deposits. This means, they are not harsh, synthetically-produced chemicals you'll often find in popular brands.

And it may surprise you to find out that zinc oxide has been used al l over the world for over 75 years as a safe sunscreen to help you prevent excessive sun exposure.

 

While many experts say to avoid the sun completely to avoid cancer, the British Medical Journal posted an editorial that concludes moderate sun exposure is a more prudent recommendation.Sunscreens do not adequately protect against ultraviolet A light, which is carcinogenic, and the authors state that sunscreens should not be relied upon to prevent melanoma. Further, sun exposure is the main source of vitamin D, which reduces the risk of certain cancers. People in the United Kingdom cannot synthesize vitamin during the winter months due to decreased amount of sun exposure. The authors say that people should get moderate sun exposure without sunscreen in order to allow the adequate synthesis of vitamin D. Brit ish Medical Journal November 22, 2003;327:1228

Cancer And Heart Disease are the

leading Causes of Death in the U.S.

 Mineral Oi l , Paraf f in, and Petrolatum – Petroleum products that coat the skin like plastic, clogging pores and creating a build-up of toxins, which in turn accumulate and can lead to dermatologic issues. Slows cellular development, which can cause you to show earlier signs of aging. Suspected cause of cancer . Disruptive of hormonal activity

· Parabens –An estimated 13,200 cosmetic and skin care products contain parabens. Studies implicate their connection with cancer . They have hormone-disrupting qualities – mimicking estrogen – and interfere with the body’s endocrine system.

· Phenol carbolic acid– Found in many lotions and skin creams. Can cause circulatory collapse, paralysis, convulsions, coma and even death from respiratory failure.

· Propylene glycol – Used as a moisturizer in cosmetics Shown to cause dermatit is, kidney or liver abnormalities, and may inhibit skin cell growth or cause skin irritation.

· Sodium laurel or lauryl sulfate (SLS), SLS breaks down the skin’s moisture barrier, easily penetrates the skin, a potent class of carcinogen. It can also cause hair loss.

· Toluene – Poison! Danger! Harmful or fatal i f swallowed! Harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Made from petroleum or coal tar, and found in most synthetic fragrances. Chronic exposure linked to anemia, lowered blood cel l count, l iver or kidney damage ,

· Dioxane– Found in compounds known as PEG, Polysorbates, Laureth, ethoxylated alcohols.. The compounds are usually contaminated with high concentrations of highly volatile 1,4-dioxane, easily absorbed through the skin. Linked to breast and prostate Cancer

  · Acrylamide– Found in many hand and face creams. Linked to mammary tumors

Antibacterial Soaps are a $16-bil l ion-a-year industry

Some 72 percent of all l iquid soap sold in the United States now contains antibacterial ingredients.

Manufacturers have relied on using fear to convince people that they need to use them to stay healthy

Antibacterial Soap Could Cause Problems

The American Medical Association (AMA) There is no evidence that these

products stop infection any better than regular soap

Increased use of antibacterial products might lead to antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Using Antibacterial Soap May Disrupt Your Hormones

  Triclosan, a chemical used in antibacterial soaps

Triclosan has already been shown to bioaccumulate and contaminate human breast milk and can act as an endocrine disrupter

Triclosan makes thyroid hormones much more potent, and speeds up their impact.

Thyroid-hormone signaling is essential for the development of the human brain and body, so these findings could have an impact on human health.

According to researchers, the results show an effect of GLA

on the severity of Exema, which indicates that GLA supplementation has a beneficial effect on the inflammatory component of Exema. (found in plant seed oils of evening primrose, black currant, borage, and fungal oils. Spirulina (often called blue-green algae) also contains GLA.)

Source of Dis-Ease vs Current Treatment

A draft of the government's plan to combat a potential super-flu estimates a death toll of up to almost 2 million Americans. The plan is being rewritten to designate who will run the country during a possibly chaotic period that could follow a mutation of a bird flu in Asia.

The draft is based on the last century's three pandemics, and states that in the best-case scenario, about 200,000 people could die.

The government currently has enough of the anti-flu drug Tamiflu to treat 4.3 million people, and $100 million worth of bird flu vaccine is being manufactured. The draft indicates that tens of millions more doses of each would be necessary, far more than can be manufactured quickly

Fear has become so widespread that Egypt has ordered the slaughter of the country's 300,000 pigs, even though no cases have been reported there.

It is important to note that nearly all suspected new cases have been reported as mild.
