Cell Phone Radiation is Unlikely to Cause Cancer: Fact or Fiction?
Posted February 27, 2018
What prompted Medpagetoday to publish their article was publication of final data from the U.S National Toxicology Program (NTP) study a few days previously. The NTP study was carried out to evaluate the potential health risks of cell phone radiation. This study is quite a big deal because, at a cost of over $25 million, it’s the largest ever federal animal study to investigate the health hazards of cell phone or radio frequency (RF) radiation.

Monsanto Mouthpieces: House Science Committee, EPA, EU-EFSA
Posted February 27, 2018
In Spring, 2015, IARC convened a Working Group of 17 cancer science experts from 11 countries to review the evidence, and they concluded that glyphosate, the main ingredient in the herbicide Roundup, “probably” causes cancer in humans (Group 2A, Volume 112). In immediate response, Monsanto and the agrochemical industry launched a ferocious anti-IARC campaign that IARC Director Dr. Christopher Wild described as, “unprecedented, coordinated efforts to undermine the evaluation, the program and the organization”.

I.V. Vitamin C and Cancer Research
Posted February 27, 2018
In recent months we have been discussing the health benefits of vitamin C — both the dietary “nutritional” needs and the “supranutritional” additional benefits. It is man that puts arbitrary limits and definitions on vitamin C — not the body. This month, we will examine some of the health benefits for cancer patients. These benefits include the “quality of life” benefits that have been long known, as well as emerging clinical evidence that high-dose vitamin C given intravenously may be curative against some cancers.

Posted February 27, 2018
A top-rated lawyer who has beaten the Food and Drug Administration more times in court than any other attorney is calling on the Trump administration to launch a probe into possible links between commonly-prescribed psychiatric drugs and the epidemic of school shootings. Read more.
Psoriasis: A Case History
Posted February 27, 2018
Frank was in his late twenties, energetic, and prematurely bald. And resolute though he was, I expected that he was about to have his resolve sorely tested by what I suggested next: a complete change of diet over to a naturopathic regimen of fresh foods and loads of vegetable juices, plus lecithin and assorted vitamins, including some extra vitamin D. He didn’t bat an eyelash at this. I sensed that, unlike most people, Frank not only wanted it all but that he was probably willing to get his hands dirty to get it. He might therefore be willing to earnestly try the classic quack cure-all: fresh vegetable juice fasting. One of my foundational naturopathic textbooks, Everybody’s Guide to Nature Cure, by Harry Benjamin, N.D., whole-heartedly recommended fasting for almost anything. Read more.
The Vaccine Program: Betrayal of Public Trust & Institutional Corruption — Part 7 of 7
Posted February 27, 2018
The UK Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) chaired by Professor Andrew Pollard, has recommended that the UK switch to hexavalent vaccines for babies. This recommendation disregards the risks for babies – including the risk of sudden infant deaths that have been linked to multi-valent vaccines, [see Appendix 8] Prof. Pollard is Director of the Oxford Vaccine Group, noted for its active role in vaccine development and testing on behalf of industry.

Ibuprofen Kills Thousands Each Year, So What is the Alternative?
Posted February 27, 2018
Why are so many folks taking NSAID drugs like ibuprofen anyway? Pain and unhealthy levels of inflammation are fast becoming default bodily states in the industrialized world. While in most cases we can adjust the underlying pro-inflammatory conditions by altering our diet, and reducing stress and environmental chemical exposures, these approaches take time, discipline and energy, and sometimes we just want the pain to stop now. In those often compulsive moments we find ourselves popping an over-the-counter pill to kill the pain. Read more.
6 Bodily Tissues That Can be Regenerated Through Nutrition
Posted February 27, 2018
In times of illness, however, regenerative processes are overcome by degenerative ones. This is where medicine may perform its most noble feat, nudging the body back into balance with foods, herbs, nutrients, healing energies, i.e. healing intention. Today, however, drug-based medicine invariably uses chemicals that have not one iota of regenerative potential; to the contrary, they almost always interfere with bodily self-renewal in order to suppress the symptoms against which they are applied.

New Study Links Cellphone Radiation to Heart and Brain Tumors
Posted February 26, 2018
Mounting evidence suggests electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation from cellphones can trigger abnormal cell growth and cancer.1,2 As early as 2011, the evidence was strong enough for the International Agency for Research on Cancer, the cancer research arm of the World Health Organization, to declare cellphones a Group 2B “possible carcinogen.”3 Two government-funded studies4 bring renewed attention to this link.
