Leery of high tech diagnostic techniques?

You're right - Scans may increase cancer risk

Full-body scans expose people to similar levels of radiation as atomic bombs used in Hiroshima, say experts. CT or computed tomography scans use ionising radiation to take pictures of the inside
of the body and can detect things like cancer.

But they can also cause cancer, US scientists at Columbia University say in the journal Radiation. They warned healthy people not to seek full-body CT scans as part of their health
check-ups.

OVER-CALCIFICATION: A NATIONAL SCANDAL

GOVERNMENT-SPONSORED OVER-CALCIFICATION SUPPORTED BY UNINFORMED PHYSICIANS AND IRRESPONSIBLE SUPPLEMENT and FOOD MANUFACTURERS

TO BLAME FOR SKYROCKETING NUMBER OF HEART DEATHS

Contrary to popular belief, women with heart disease make up the largest health
risk group in the
United States. Heart disease is by far  the biggest killer in America,
and females are 15 percent more likely to die
of it than men, according to the
American Heart Association.
The number of men dying from heart disease annually
has dropped from 510,000 two decades ago to 440,000 today. But in that same period,
the number of women dying each year from the disease has risen from 490,000
to 510,000.
Even more alarming, heart disease is now prevalent among a younger group of

women than would be expected, and deaths often occur with little prior warning.

What’s going on? Physicians claim to be ‘mystified’ since the type of heart disease
that
‘fells’ women so unexpectedly has few of the diagnostic symptoms that typify
similar events in men.

 

Yes, there ARE answers to this 'mystery' - read on here:
