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:

Is it true that many of the practices of "alternative"
medicine are not scientifically proven?

First of all, I think it is appropriate the term "alternative" is in quotations,
as a more appropriate term is really traditional medicine. What is acceptable
and available in the United States is actually conventional medicine - the
predominant medicine currently practiced. It is an important distinction,
because these traditional treatments are not really "alternative" but viable
options and often preferable to more toxic or invasive
treatments. Much of
what is termed "alternative" has been used for centuries and has past and
current documentation.

Medicine has become big business and there is much salesmanship involved in the idea that current standards of practice are the only methods supported by science. In fact, there are massive amounts of scientific documentation for most of the practices of naturopathic physicians, acupuncturists, herbalists and integrative medical practitioners.

Cream encourages body's cancer-fighting cells
A cream that encourages the body's immune system to destroy cancer
cells has been released for general use in Australia.
The Aldara
cream is for use on superficial skin cancers known as basal
cell carcinomas - it is a 
treatment that kills the cancer without
the need for surgery.

"It basically uses the body's own immune system - the body's own defence - to
attack cancers and destroy them," Dr Jamshed Ahmed, of 3M Pharmaceuticals,
said.
Dermatologist Dr Stephen Shumack says scientists are now trying to apply
the same treatment to other cancers.

Common Antibiotic Tied to Rare, Fatal Heart Effect
Erythromycin, a commonly prescribed antibiotic, can cause a potentially fatal heart rhythm abnormality, according to new research. And the risk of this complication is even higher if erythromycin is used in combination with other medications, such as some antidepressant, antifungal and heart medications,
the study found.

Comment: As we've said before - NO drugs are safe - many with a higher cost than others. Beta Glucan
is an excellent substitute for antibiotics - safe and no side effects.

Mercury toxicity at 'crisis level' experts warn.
The substance that made the Mad Hatter mad back in author Lewis Carroll's time
still poses enough environmental and health hazards to deserve the increasing
attention it's getting.

"We have just reached the crisis level on mercury," Steinwachs, the environmental
quality specialist with the University of Missouri Extension, says. She has spent
years trying to reduce and recycle hazardous waste. "Now, we're finding it in our
food, our water, our soil, our babies, everywhere."

Comment: read this story carefully - many have a heavy mercury load and do NOT
know it. Current research reveals that mercury toxicity in the heart is the leading
unacknowledged cause of congestive heart failure.
Also: know this: EDTA chelation therapy, excellent for detoxifying other heavy metals,
has NO effect on mercury. The only efficient and proven mercury detxifier is
DeToxMaxPlus: you can read about it here:
