A new study evaluating the decline in breast cancer rates shows just how damaging the medical use of horse urine extract and synthetic progesterone has been to American women for the past four decades.

Scientists at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have found perchlorate in the various brands of powdered baby formula that they tested. Perchlorate is a thyroid toxin, and feeding it to babies is a really bad idea. Unfortunately, the breast milk of women across the country has also been found to be contaminated with perchlorate. Perchlorate in breast milk has also been found to displace iodine - leading to potential serious thyroid problems for infants.

Researchers have documented an alarming link between the use of antidepressants and the development of serious heart disease. The link was discovered by following 63,449 women as part of the Nurses’ Health Study. The results show a “specific relationship between antidepressant use and sudden cardiac death.” The specific conclusion of the study states, “In this cohort of women without baseline coronary heart disease, depressive symptoms were associated with fatal coronary heart disease, and a measure of clinical depression including antidepressant use was specifically associated with sudden cardiac death.”

In a stunning and unexpected 6-3 ruling the right-leaning Supreme Court went against the wishes of the last president, took the wind out of the sails of health care reform of the current president, sent irresponsible Big Pharma a major wake up call, and bluntly told the arrogant FDA that they are indeed not above the rule of law. It is a major victory for every American citizen.

Under the cover of emergency economic legislation the front wave of an entire new system of health care is being pushed on Americans. The strategy for this ploy was once explained by Obama’s former appointee to head the Department of Health and Human Services, and now exposed tax cheat, Senator Tom Daschle….

A new scientific review of the dangers of statin medications is the first official paper to shed light on what I have been saying for years. It reviews 900 studies on the adverse effects of statins. It shows beyond any doubt that statins are potent disrupters of normal energy production by cells – meaning that the drugs are anti-life.

Bubble economics has become a painful financial lesson for America and the rest of the world. Will we learn from our mistakes? Will we get smarter about recognizing bubbles before they burst, so that the air can be let out of them in a less painful manner? It appears that our new president, in his passion to provide health care for everyone, is about to pump hot air into a bubble that is ready to explode under the weight of its own fraud and lack of results.

Yesterday Steve Jobs floated a description of his personal health problems into the public; calling them “a hormone imbalance that has been ‘robbing’ me of the proteins my body needs to be healthy. Sophisticated blood tests have confirmed this diagnosis. The remedy for this nutritional problem is relatively simple and straightforward, and I’ve already begun treatment.” His press release describing his health issue was timed to quell market concern…

On December 17, 2008 the New England Journal of Medicine put the nail in the coffin on another dismal year for the theory of drugs to treat disease, reporting that aggressive use of blood-sugar-lowering medication to prevent heart disease was a complete failure. Its not that lowering blood sugar in this patient population didn’t do anything: it made the patients heavier and more hypoglycemic.

Quietly, another colossal drug debacle flies under the radar of the mainstream media. Last week, The New England Journal of Medicine reported that blood pressure medication is not effective in the treatment for the rapidly rising rate of heart failure in patients over the age of 65. This means that Western Medicine has no treatment for a relatively recent problem – one that I believe is a side effect of taking statins.

A new study confirms that having whey protein as part of your breakfast helps to reduce your appetite at lunch. The study compared the appetite effects of whey to soy protein and casein protein – and whey was superior.

A new study shows that whey protein, compared to fish, casein, and gluten proteins had a far superior ability to help reduce the amount of fat in the blood following a high fat meal.

An interesting new study finds that a person’s vitamin D status entering a diet predicts the likelihood of success.

Milk thistle is a popular herb used for liver support and assisting natural detoxification processes. It is also known to work by reducing inflammation, including the key inflammatory gene signal NF-kappaB. A new study shows that it inhibits multiple pathways that otherwise change baby fat cells into new adult fat cells.

One of the great problems involved with being overweight is the extreme ease with which new fat cells form. A new study shows that alpha and gamma tocotrienol can help prevent baby fat cells from turning into adult fat cells.

A powerful new study shows that grape seed extract turns back on gene signals that help insulin receptors work properly, a major discovery for any person concerned with their weight or diabetes.

Normally we think of adverse accumulation of fat in the liver being caused by excess alcohol and over-eating. A new study demonstrates for the first time that an overgrowth of imbalanced bacteria and/or a “leaky gut” are associated with the severity of a build up of undesirable fat in the liver – a key marker of disease risk and progression into the metabolic syndrome.

A new study of overweight adolescent girls shows that exercise increases free radical stress due to the inefficient utilization of extra oxygen during the exercise process. It is likely that this finding applies to anyone who is overweight. The finding is significant because overweight people are routinely told to exercise more. However, doing so in the presence of a lack of antioxidants will increase tissue damage and consequent inflammation, resulting in a poor response to exercise that is unlikely to produce fitness or weight loss.

Researchers have discovered that your stomach’s appetite signal, ghrelin, can also turn on gene signals that result in accumulation of stomach fat. The study means that rather than doing crunches to flatten your stomach spend more time getting your appetite under control and your stomach is likely to shrink.

A new mangosteen study shows that the xanthone antioxidants are able to regulate important gene signals in fat cells, reducing adverse inflammation and insulin resistance (by stabilizing adiponectin levels).
