responded with fear that has divided us. Yet we have found that chaos is
the precursor to change. And changing we are! As the truth of what has
emerged in the Covid 19 plandemic and in the hijacked marches for Black
Lives Matter, "we the people" are...

Anonymity Increases Medical Error Reports
submitted by: admin on 11/24/2019
Flagging medical errors and emphasizing lack of punishment by maintaining anonymity leads to more reporting of errors. There are 100,000 deaths from medical errors annually according to the Institute of Medicine (IOM). A study published in the November 21 issue of Pediatrics showed that reports increased from 13 over 2.5 years to 216. However, none of the reports...

Antioxidants and Cancer Treatment
submitted by: admin on 05/13/2015

This is why we sometimes see success with IV vitamin C treatment. Caveolin 1 is a marker that predicts survival. The question then is would it be worthwhile to treat with...

Are Carbohydrates Important When Losing Weight?
submitted by: admin on 05/16/2015

submitted by: admin on 05/16/2015
Most of us assume the colonoscopy is a routine screening test we all need at age 50. However, the data is controversial and it can be argued that for people who are asymptomatic that there's no benefit when complications are considered.
Aromatherapy Relaxes Emergency Room Nurses
submitted by: admin on 05/26/2015
Aromatherapy treatment was shown to lower the anxiety of emergency room nurses. Yet this is not done in clinical practice. It could be used in the hospital to relax the entire staff and patients. Lavender would be a good example. Massage therapy is another very useful relaxants, especially for surgeons.

Aspirin for MI: Is it the Best Choice?
submitted by: admin on 10/26/2015
Side effects of aspirin outweigh the benefits for preventing heart attacks and strokes. GI bleeds are the major serious complications, but hemorrhagic stroke and retinal bleeds are also associated problems. It also causes leaky gut syndrome.
There are natural alternatives for aspirin that include fish oil, nattokinase, lumbrokinase, digestive enzymes that...
Aspirin for Primary Prevention Questioned
submitted by: admin on 11/24/2019
Aspirin is not a good idea for women trying to stave off heart attacks or strokes. Fifty women would have to take ASA for 10 years to help just one person, and this would only be for women at risk for a heart attack. For a person who has already had a heart attack or stroke, the evidence shows there is some benefit to taking aspirin, but it is not...
