Mercury: Is There Poison in Your Mouth?
submitted by: admin on 10/11/2013
For over 150 years there has been a debate between the American Dental Association, the Environmental Protection Agency, and Complementary and Alternative Medicine about whether or not amalgam dental fillings are safe. Amalgams are the silver fillings we have in our teeth. After the dentist has prepared the cavity in your tooth for filling, he prepares...
Omega 3 Fats Protect Against Nerve Damage
submitted by: admin on 10/12/2013
Research from the University of London published in the Journal of Neuroscience showed that omega-3 fatty acids can protect nerves from injury and help them regenerate. Researchers found that mice recovered from sciatic nerve injury more quickly and more fully and that muscles were less likely to waste if they had high levels of omega 3 fatty acids.
Unfortunately,...
Omega-3 Fatty Acids Protect the Heart
submitted by: admin on 02/18/2015
Patients with diabetes who've had a previous heart attack have an 84% lower incidence of dangerous ventricular arrhythmias and 72% lower risk of a fatal heart attack if they use omega 3 fatty acids than those only on drug protection. One thousand patients were followed for 40 months and included those between the ages of 60 and 80. They were given...
Probiotics
submitted by: admin on 10/14/2013
The microflora of the gut is composed of thousands of microbial species microbes that live in a complex ecosystem. When this is disturbed it is dangerous and can lead to a wide range of intestinal disorders. Probiotics are the natural microbes found in the gut and they can be replaced.
Probiotics Protect the Gut from Radiation
submitted by: admin on 10/14/2013
Washington University School of Medicine published an article in the journal, Gut, showing that taking a probiotic before radiation can protect the intestine from damage in mice. There is no reason that this would be different in humans. This suggests that taking a probiotic with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and other strains protects the gut when taken prior to...

Should Big Pharma be Protected Against Law Suits for Unlabeled Side Effects?
submitted by: admin on 10/14/2013
In 2011 there was a US Supreme Court ruling that pharmaceutical companies making drugs during the life of their patent are liable for inadequate safety warnings on the label of the drug. In June of 2013 the same court ruled that generic drug producers were NOT liable for law suits related to adverse drug reactions not printed on the label so long as...
Sunshine is Superior to Vitamin D Supplements
submitted by: admin on 06/05/2016
A study out of the University of Edinburgh and presented at the International Investigative Dermatological Conference in May of 2013 reported that sunlight on skin lowers blood pressure by increasing the release of nitric oxide. They exposed 24 people to a tanning lamp for two 20 minute sessions where in one group the UV light was blocked and in the...
Sweets Increase Inflammation
submitted by: admin on 10/16/2013
High glycemic foods, which tend to cause a brisk elevation in sugar levels in the blood stream, cause a 22% increase in inflammation in overweight and obese adults. This was measured based on CRP (C reactive protein) levels. Low glycemic foods tend to have more fiber and are not processed and don't cause a rapid increase in blood sugar levels. This also raised...

The Responsibility of Freedom
submitted by: admin on 12/29/2020
Freedom is something that is earned that must be protected at all times. We have slowly relinquished some of our precious rights over the past several decades, especially since the onset of Covid 19. The direction we're now headed is socialism or even communism as we're witnessing the disappearance of the middle class. Unless we take...
Treating Alzheimer's Disease with Light
submitted by: admin on 05/29/2016
A study published in the January 2016 issue of Frontiers in Neuroscience reports that near infrared light can lessen the behavioral deficits associated with Alzheimer's disease but also has neuroprotective effects and can slow the underlying death of brain neurons. Considering that treatment of Alzheimer's disease is all but non-existant, this is big...
Vitamin C Preserves Fetal Lungs in Pregnant Mothers Who Smoke
submitted by: admin on 10/17/2013
According to research at UCSF in May of 2012, smoking during pregnancy adversely affects fetal lung development, but it can be prevented by vitamin C during the last trimester. A study on 159 smoking pregnant women revealed that just 500 mg/d of vitamin C before 22 weeks of gestation would raise their low vitamin C levels to normal and also improve...

X-Rays, Diagnostic Imaging and Radiation
submitted by: admin on 10/12/2013
The relationship between high dose radiation is well known, but much is known about diagnostic medical radiation in causing cancer. We now know that medical radiation plays a role in causing cancer, especially in children. We tend to over-depend on technology to solve clinical questions because it is easy and useful, and to protect liability of medical...
