Yet another example of the crony medical system. It is very difficult to get tested for Zika. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have issued strict guidelines about who will be allowed to be tested. Priority is given to pregnant women with possible exposure to Zika and people with Zika-like symptoms. But testing… Continue reading Can’t Get (or Afford) a Zika Virus Test?

Depression, Amino Acids, and Rubidium
Chronic depression can be successfully treated by taking supplemental essential amino acids. A simple blood test can check for low amino acid levels, and can suggest appropriate dosages to bring levels back to normal. Supplements of a mineral called rubidium, part of the lithium–sodium–potassium “family” of minerals, can stimulate catecholamines and further help depression. For… Continue reading Depression, Amino Acids, and Rubidium
Snake Oil and Copper Bracelets
Folk medicine evolved through careful observation of the beneficial effects of certain herbs and substances on human health—and modern science frequently validates our ancestors’ observations. Snake oil contains concentrated levels of omega-3 fatty acids, particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and is a credible anti-inflammatory agent. Modern research has found that copper has significant anti-inflammatory effects, and… Continue reading Snake Oil and Copper Bracelets
Effective then, Effective Now: Cut A Child’s Risk of Type 1 Diabetes by 80%
An important Finnish study found that infants who received 2,000 IU of vitamin D in the first year of life had 80% less incidence of type 1 diabetes. Other research shows that cod liver oil (which contains both omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D) also cuts the risk of type 1 diabetes. In addition, prenatal… Continue reading Effective then, Effective Now: Cut A Child’s Risk of Type 1 Diabetes by 80%

They’re concerned the truth will come out about this ubiquitous poison. Action Alert! Recently we reported that the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a draft report on the carcinogenic potential of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide. This was in advance of a meeting in which a panel of scientists would discuss… Continue reading Glyphosate: Will the EPA Capitulate to Its Cronies?
Do We Really Need GMOs to Help Feed the Poor?
“GMOs will help feed the world.” This is what we hear, in one form or another, as one of the main arguments in favor of GMO technology. It may be a good tactic, but is not a truthful one. The scientists who just won the World Food Prize have provided useful evidence that we don’t… Continue reading Do We Really Need GMOs to Help Feed the Poor?
Tylenol During Pregnancy Linked to Autism
Another in a long list of reasons to avoid this drug. A recent study found that boys exposed to acetaminophen (Tylenol) before birth were more likely to have symptoms of autism during childhood. This isn’t the first time that scientists have reported a connection between using this drug during pregnancy and brain and behavior abnormalities… Continue reading Tylenol During Pregnancy Linked to Autism
