In a scandal that has reverberated around the world of cancer research, the Office of Research Integrity at the U.S. Department of Health found that a Boston University cancer scientist fabricated his findings. His work was published in two journals in 2009, and he’s been ordered to retract them. But important studies by other scientists like those at the Mayo Clinic, who based their work on his findings, could now make 10 years of their studies worthless, according to commentary in Gaia Health.

It seems fairly evident that the cancer industrial complex is a highly lucrative, well-oiled system that tends to support funding for expensive drug treatments that don’t address the cause of the problem, and have yet to make a significant dent in the decrease of the overall cancer rate in the US despite investing hundreds of billions of dollars. Much of the support comes from flawed and biased “research” studies that support the use of expensive drugs as detailed in the featured articles.  Read the rest of this entry »

When it comes to vaccine safety, much of the talk about toxic ingredients focuses on thimerosal (contains mercury) that is added to killed (inactivated) vaccines as a preservative. But vaccines also contain adjuvants — agents that stimulate your immune system to greatly increase immunologic response to the vaccine - and one of the most toxic is aluminum.  Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that is contained in a number of common childhood and adult vaccines and may even exceed the toxicity of mercury in the human body.

According to a new study published in Current Medical Chemistry, children up to 6 months of age receive 14.7 to 49 times more aluminum from vaccines than the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) safety limits allow. Read the rest of this entry »

Fluoride. Dentists say that drinking it can protect your teeth against cavities. Cities and towns all across the world actually dump it into the water supply, hoping to indiscriminately medicate the population through their tap water faucets.  The official story on fluoride sounds wonderful: Drink the stuff, and you won’t get cavities, we’re told. It’s a nice story. But there’s another side to this story — the side you’re never told. And it starts with the astonishing but verifiable fact that nearly all the fluoride dripped into municipal water supplies isn’t naturally occurring fluoride at all. Read the rest of this entry »

Nearly 26 million Americans have diabetes, and up to 95 percent of these cases are type 2 diabetes.  Unlike type 1 diabetes, which is an autoimmune disease that shuts down your body’s insulin production, type 2 diabetes is directly caused by lifestyle. Whereas type 1 diabetics need to inject insulin several times a day to stay alive, type 2 diabetics do NOT need drugs. In fact, taking drugs for type 2 diabetes can be far worse than the disease itself! Read the rest of this entry »

The Institute of Medicine adverse reactions report admits MMR vaccines cause measles, seizures, anaphylaxis and other health problems.  You can download and view the entire report yourself at:  http://naturalnews.com/files/Advers…

(NaturalNews) The Institute of Medicine, which has long functioned as a front group for the pharmaceutical industry and receives tens of millions of dollars in annual funding from drug companies and global elitists (like Bill Gates, Ted Turner, etc.), has issued a report that declares the MMR vaccine is not linked to autism. This is now being widely reported in the conventional (controlled) media, which isn’t telling you the real story behind this report.

What’s the real story? That this IOM report, even though it goes out of its way to excuse vaccines and dismiss safety concerns, still openly admits that vaccines cause measles, febrile seizures, anaphylactic shock and other potentially fatal side effects. It also admits that other vaccines are linked to a whole host of bizarre side effects, including skin lesions, difficulty breathing and live virus infections (see complete list, below).

What if you’d thought for years that you were in danger of dying from heart disease because of your high blood pressure? And what if you were taking powerful blood pressure drugs - which come loaded with dangerous side effects. And then what if several years later you found out you were never at risk for heart disease to start with, and you’d been taking those dangerous drugs for nothing? Read the rest of this entry »

This Yogic or Ayurvedic ritual was primarily for stimulating digestion and eliminating ama, the Ayurvedic term for toxic slime that builds up in the gastro-intestinal or GI tract. This ritual has even more health benefits. Read the rest of this entry »

Nothing feels quite like a migraine.

I remember whole days spent in bed, curtains drawn tight to keep out the light that felt like it seared straight through my skull. Every sound, every movement brought on waves of pain. I was so grateful when they just stopped. Around the time I was entering college, I just stopped getting them. But for those of you who still get them–I know your pain.

And I have a possible solution to share.

Researchers at the International Headache Society invited 60 patients who got 2 to 6 migraines per month to join their trial investigating a natural migraine therapy. Read the rest of this entry »
