Prescription Drugs: A Leading Cause of Death</h2>
<ul></ul>
</header><div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">I have been writing to you for many years now about the dangers of solely relying on prescription medications. Nearly all prescription medications work by poisoning enzymes and blocking receptors in the body. You can't poison a crucial enzyme or block an important receptor for the long-term and expect a good result. Health care providers should be searching for ways to make our patients healthier, not just treating symptoms with prescription drugs that provide no health benefits. Drugs do not make us healthier. And, keep in mind that many commonly prescribed drugs fail most who take them.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">For example, the standard-of-care when treating a patient for heart disease is to use a statin drug. In fact, nearly one-third of adult Americans currently take a statin drug. A statin drug poisons an enzyme in the body-JMG C.A reductase. The best of statin studies show that it results in a 1% (primary prevention-preventing a first heart attack) reduction in non-fatal heart attacks if it is taken for at least three years. That means the drug fails 99%-they will not have any benefit from taking the drug. And, they are subjected to the myriad of side effects from taking a statin such as muscle pains, congestive heart failure, brain dysfunction and diabetes. How could one-third of Americans be taking a drug that fails 99% who take it?</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Dr. Peter Gotzsche, director of the independent Nordic Cochrane Centre claims that taking too many ineffective and unsafe prescription drugs could be the biggest problem we are facing today. He said,</span></div>
<blockquote style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: teal;"><span style="font-family: georgia, times, 'times new roman', serif;"><em>It is an enormous problem. It's one of the biggest problems we have in the world today, but people don't realize how terrible it is. I have estimated that our prescription drugs are the third major killer after heart disease and cancer. And I have recently looked at psychiatric drugs, and these drugs are so harmful that they alone are also your third major kiler after heart disease and cancer.</em></span></span></blockquote>
<div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">It is interesting to note that Dr. Gotzsche used to work for Big Pharma.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">I could not agree with Dr. Gotzsche more. These drugs fail to work better than a placebo in most studies and they fail when compared to exercise in every study.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">How did we get to this point? Why are doctors prescribing so many drugs that fail and seriously harm or kill so many?</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">We are at this point because most health care providers simply cannot understad how to critically read a study nor do they understand much about what is health and how to optimize it.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">I do not take pleasure in writing this. I also feel that it is important to state that you must take control of you own health care decisions. You must educate yourself about any medication prescribed to you. If you don't do your own due diligence, you could experience serious adverse effects from commonly prescribed prescriptions.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 22.5px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Finally, it is also important to find a health care provider who is working for you, not working for Big Pharma or the insurance companies. If your health care provider does not think as you do, then I suggest it is time to find another one.</span></div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Past research has demonstrated that cancer drugs like chemotherapy are not always worth the effort, especially in the instance of palliative, end-of-life care for terminally ill patients. In 2016, the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges (AMRC) even <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/055790_cancer_chemotherapy_ineffective_medicine.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">made a list of drugs that were not beneficial to patients</a>, and as one might expect, chemotherapy was one of the top contenders. Doctors from the AMRC explained that chemotherapy cannot cure terminal cancer, and may make the last months of life more uncomfortable than they need to be.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
As reported, “The treatment is ‘by its very nature toxic’, the college said. Therefore, the combination of failing to achieve a response and causing toxicity can ‘do more harm than good.'” Studies have also shown that a majority of top doctors <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/036054_chemotherapy_physicians_toxicity.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">would refuse chemotherapy</a>in a similar situation.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
If chemotherapy, which is one of the most popular forms of cancer treatment, is of such little benefit, how are we supposed to have faith in any of the other drugs the industry is pushing?</div>

</aside><section class="cb-entry-content clearfix" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">In 2013, the Swiss Medical Board, an independent health technology assessment initiative, was requested to prepare a review of mammography screening. The team of medical professionals included a medical ethicist, a clinical epidemiologist, a pharmacologist, an oncologic surgeon, a nurse scientist, a lawyer, and a health economist. Two of those members, Nikola Biller-Andorno, M.D. Ph. D. and Peter Juni, M.D, opened up about the project in the <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">New England Journal of Medicine.</em></section><section class="cb-entry-content clearfix" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /></em><div class="article_float_right text-center" style="box-sizing: border-box;">

They <a href="http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp1401875" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;">said</a>: “As we embarked on the project, we were aware of the controversies that have surrounded mammography screening for the past 10-15 years. When we received the available evidence and contemplated its implications in detail, however, we became increasingly concerned.”</div>
</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
In 2016, it is estimated that approximately 246,660 new cases of invasive breast cancer will<a href="http://www.breastcancer.org/symptoms/understand_bc/statistics" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;"> be diagnosed in women in the United States</a> as well as 61,000 new cases of non-invasive breast cancer. Mammograms continue to be touted as the most effective <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">screening</em> tool we have today to find breast cancer.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
However, these two doctors were shocked to discover that there is minimal evidence that actually indicates that the benefits of mammography screening outweigh the harms.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
“The relative risk reduction of approximately 20 percent in breast-cancer mortality associated with mammography that is currently described by most expert panels came at the price of a considerable diagnostic cascade, with repeat mammography, subsequent biopsies, and over-diagnosis of breast cancers — cancers that would never have become clinically apparent.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
The Canadian National Breast Screening Study, which was conducted over the course of 25 years, concluded that 106 of 484 screen-detected cancers <a href="http://www.bmj.com/content/348/bmj.g366" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">were over-diagnosed</a>.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<div id="647812857" style="box-sizing: border-box;">
</div>
<div class="ad_tag" style="box-sizing: border-box;">
The doctors explained: “This means that 106 of the 44,925 healthy women in the screening group were diagnosed with and treated for breast cancer unnecessarily, which resulted in needless surgical interventions, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or some combination of these therapies.”</div>
</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
The fact that the benefits of this form of cancer screening are so overestimated seems worrisome for the medical community and patients at large. How, in this day and age, do we not have more awareness, more answers, and better technology?</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Another review of 10 trials <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23737396?dopt=Abstract" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">involving more than 600,000 women</a> discovered no evidence that mammography screening was effective on overall mortality. This caused concern over the benefits of the medical practice. A survey of U.S. women’s views on the mammography screenings discovered that 71.5 percent of women think that it lessened risk of death from breast cancer by half, while 72.1 percent believed that 80 deaths could be avoided per each 1,000 women screened. Their perceptions were gravely over-calculated. In fact, when looking at the real numbers, mammography results in a risk reduction of 20 percent and only 1 death can be prevented per 1,000 women screened.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
The Swiss Medical Board report <a href="http://www.medical-board.ch/index.php?id=803" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;">became public in February 2014</a>, provoking the board to advise that the quality of mammography screening ought to be evaluated and that women should be educated about both the benefits and the harms of the medical practice.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
The report created controversy within the Swiss medical community, even though it supports a growing perspective around the world that mammography for breast cancer screening in asymptomatic populations is outdated and harmful at best.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
When reviewing the data in regards to every breast cancer death prevented in U.S. women <a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2014/04/30/mammography-screening-programs.aspx" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;">over a 10-year period of yearly screening</a> starting at the age of 50, you will find that:</div>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 26px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; list-style-type: none; margin-left: 21px;"><ul style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 26px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-left: 21px;">490-670 women usually have a false positive mammogram with repeat examination</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-left: 21px;">70-100 women usually have an unnecessary biopsy</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-left: 21px;">3-14 women were the victim of over-diagnosed breast cancer that would never reach clinical relevance</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Furthermore, up to 50 percent of women have breast tissue that is dense. This makes it very hard to read mammograms correctly, as dense breast tissue and cancer both show up white on an X-ray.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Due to the lack of evidence in support of mammography and the clear potential risks involved with them, the board chose to recommend cancelling mammography-screening programs altogether. Although their recommendations are not legally binding, the report caused an uproar amongst Swiss cancer experts and organizations. The doctors on board reported:</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
“One of the main arguments used against it was that it contradicted the global consensus of leading experts in the field… Another argument was that the report unsettled women, but we wonder how to avoid unsettling women, given the available evidence.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
It’s clearly no mystery why the board become increasingly concerned about their researcher. The “evidence” simply does not back up the global consensus of other experiences in the field suggesting that mammograms were safe and capable of saving lives.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
When it comes down to it, we are dealing with outdated clinical trials, the benefits do not clearly outweigh the harms, and women’s perceptions of mammography benefits do not match reality,</div>

In 2011, 220,097 women and 2,078 men in the United States were diagnosed with breast cancer, and 40,931 women and 443 men in the United States died from breast cancer. It has become the most common type of cancer among women.</div>

There is a wealth of scientific data concluding that mammograms are not, as the CDC claims, the most effective way to detect breast cancer. In fact, having a mammogram is likely the last thing you want to do if you have breast cancer.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
A study published in <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">The European Journal of Public Health</em>titled <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“Trends in breast cancer stage distribution before, during and after introduction of a screening programme in Norway</em>” found that breast screenings actually increase the incidence of localized stage cancers without reducing the incidence of advanced cancers. (<a href="http://eurpub.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2014/02/25/eurpub.cku015.abstract?sid=3c63c31b-f978-4742-8c11-1a1caf5f9bce" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;">source</a>)</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
The study, which used a huge population sample of 1.8 million Norwegian women diagnosed with breast cancer from 1987 – 2010, found that:</div>
<blockquote style="border-left-style: none; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 40px 32px 38px; padding: 0px; position: relative;">
<h3 style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 400; line-height: 30px; margin: 27px 0px 17px;">
“The annual incidence of localized breast cancer among women aged 50–69 years rose from 63.9 per 100 000 before the introduction of screening to 141.2 afterwards, corresponding to a ratio of 2.21 (95% confidence interval: 2.10; 2.32).<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">The incidence of more advanced cancers increased from 86.9 to 117.3 per 100 000 afterwards, corresponding to a 1.35 (1.29; 1.42)-fold increase. </strong>Advanced cancers also increased among younger women not eligible for screening, whereas their incidence of localized cancers remained nearly constant.”</h3>
</blockquote>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
This study outlines how Norway’s breast screening program has actually increased the chance of being diagnosed with early stage breast cancer by more than 200%, as well contributing to an increased chance of receiving advanced stage breast cancer diagnosis by 35%. This is the opposite of what mammograms are supposed to do; if they were useful then the incidence of cancers would be lower and not higher.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
The <a href="http://eurpub.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2014/02/25/eurpub.cku015.abstract?sid=3c63c31b-f978-4742-8c11-1a1caf5f9bce" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;">study</a> concluded that:</div>

<h3 style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 400; line-height: 30px; margin: 27px 0px 17px;">
Incidence of localized breast cancer increased significantly among women aged 50–69 years old after introduction of screening, while the incidence of more advanced cancers was not reduced in the same period when compared to the younger unscreened age group.(<a href="http://eurpub.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2014/02/25/eurpub.cku015.abstract?sid=3c63c31b-f978-4742-8c11-1a1caf5f9bce" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; text-decoration: none;">source</a>)</h3>
</blockquote>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
It’s important to note that, “<em style="box-sizing: border-box;">although the study did measure the impact of Norway’s breast screening programme, a comparison of trends between participants and non-participants in the age group eligible for screening warrants further investigation. Also the causal link between stage distribution and mortality needs to be investigated in the context of screening</em>.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
A paper published in 2011 in the <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">British Medical Journal </em>set out to prove that breast screening by mammography is associated with a steeper fall in mortality cancer compared to other countries who were not offering this service. They did not expect to find the complete opposite; they found a drop in breast cancer mortality among women who were not screened. They concluded that the recent downward trend in breast cancer mortality had nothing to do with screening and everything to do with improvements in treatment and service provision. (source)</div>

The new data published in the BMJ now suggests that none of the gratifying falls in breast cancer can be attributed to screening and that the very existence of a NHSBSP (national breast screening programme) should be questioned. Unless there is public pressure for an independent inquiry to challenge the status quo, it will be business as usual for the screening programme. Furthermore, the Department of Health has painted itself into a corner and it is no longer a question of scientific debate – the subject has become too politicized by those who like to avoid U-turns at all costs. – <em style="box-sizing: border-box;"> Michael Baum, Professor Emeritus of Surgery and visiting Professor of Medical Humanities at University College London, is a leading British surgical oncologist who specializes in breast cancer treatment (</em><a href="http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2011/aug/02/breast-cancer-screening" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">source</a><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">)</em></h3>

This would be an asymptomatic woman walking along the high street, having a mammogram, and then two weeks later she’s told she has to have a mastectomy. This is so cruel that it should make you weep. (quote taken from the documentary trailer above)</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
As Sayer Ji, founder of <a href="http://www.greenmedinfo.com/blog/study-18-million-breast-screening-increases-lethal-breast-cancer-incidence" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #dd3333; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Greenmedinfo.com</a> points out, a National Cancer Institute commissioned expert panel concluded that “early stage cancers” are not cancer, they are benign or indolent growths. This means that millions of women were wrongly diagnosed with breast cancer over the past few decades and have been subjected to harmful treatment, when they would have been better off leaving it untreated or diagnosed; frighteningly, it is not uncommon for a breast cancer misdiagnosis to occur.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Another study that was recently published in the <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">British Medical Journal </em>concluded that regular mammogram screenings do not reduce breast cancer death rates. And they found no evidence to suggest that mammograms are more effective than personal breast exams at detecting cancer in the designated age group. The study involved 90, 000 Canadian women and compared breast cancer incidence and mortality up to 25 years in women aged 40-59.(source)</div>

Many Studies Showing The Same Thing</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
The sheer number of studies that have been published on breast mammography examinations and their failure to produce a benefit in screened populations is overwhelming. What’s even more disturbing is the fact that these types of examinations have also been shown to <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">increase</em> the risk of breast cancer, and to have negative implications for both physical and mental health.</div>

U-turns do not embarrass clinical scientists, unlike politicians: if the evidence changes then our minds must change. As the national programme began to run its course, two disturbing observations made me begin to question my original support. First, about 10 years after the initiation of the service, updated analyses of the original data set by independent groups in Europe and the US found that the initial estimate of benefit in the reduction of breast cancer mortality was grossly exaggerated. – <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Michael Baum, Professor Emeritus of Surgery and visiting Professor of Medical Humanities at University College London, is a leading British surgical oncologist who specializes in breast cancer treatment (</em><a href="http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2011/aug/02/breast-cancer-screening" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">source</a><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">)</em></h3>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
(<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">Natural News</a>) If you’ve ever wanted to read large collections of fake news, look no further than <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">medical science journals </strong>such as <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Lancet</em> or the <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">British Medical Journal</em>. Almost everything they publish is “bogus,” explains science writer Richard Harris, who writes for NPR, and the result is billions of dollars in fraud, waste and unnecessary expenditures on Big Pharma drugs that simple don’t work.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
His new book is called <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Rigor-Mortis-Science-Worthless-Billions/dp/0465097901" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Rigor Mortis: How Sloppy Science Creates Worthless Cures, Crushes Hope, and Wastes Billions</a>, and it reveals the truth about science fraud that I’ve been documenting for years on <a href="http://naturalnews.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">Natural News</a> and <a href="http://scientific.news/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Scientific.news</a>. What truth is that? <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Most “science” studies don’t hold up under scrutiny</strong>, and most of them can’t be reproduced when someone else attempts to perform the same experiment.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
The entire apparatus of <a href="http://bigpharmanews.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">Big Pharma</a> and FDA approved drugs, in other words, is largely fraudulent. Most drugs simply don’t work on most people, which is exactly why people who take lots of prescription medications almost always see a decline in their health (they get sicker, not healthier).</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
The bogus nature of bad science is present across every realm of science, by the way: Pharmaceuticals, climate change, psychology, physics, chemistry and more. <a href="http://climatesciencenews.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">Climate change</a> is probably the worst of all these, where <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">scientists decide in advance what outcomes they want to see, </strong>then work diligently to shape the computer modeling or data sets to achieve the outcome they want. In fact, the entire industry of “climate change science” is rooted in total <a href="http://junksciencewatch.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">junk science fraud</a>, buoyed by fabricated science and aggressive demands of social conformity (plus coordinated attempts to smear and discredit any scientists who don’t kowtow to the science totalitarians).</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
What’s especially notable in all this is that medical science studies are almost always given instant credibility of “real news” even when they are demonstrably fake. Thus, Google’s war on “fake news” will censor information that questions the legitimacy of the faked science studies because Google automatically assumes all medical journals are 100% real and correct at all times. The far more accurate answer is that they are probably only accurate about 1% of the time, which means they’re 99% fake news that Google scores as 100% real. (See more news about Google’s disinformation schemes at <a href="http://disinfo.news/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Disinfo.news</a>.)</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
The New York Post has published an outstanding article summarizing the sad state of science today. Read the original article at <a href="http://nypost.com/2017/05/06/medical-studies-are-almost-always-bogus/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">the New York Post website</a>:</div>

Medical studies are almost always bogus</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<em style="box-sizing: border-box;">By Susannah Cahalan</em></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
How many times have you encountered a study — on, say, weight loss — that trumpeted one fad, only to see another study discrediting it a week later?</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
That’s because many medical studies are junk. It’s an open secret in the research community, and it even has a name: “the reproducibility crisis.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
For any study to have legitimacy, it must be replicated, yet only half of medical studies celebrated in newspapers hold water under serious follow-up scrutiny — and about two-thirds of the “sexiest” cutting-edge reports, including the discovery of new genes linked to obesity or mental illness, are later “disconfirmed.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Though erring is a key part of the scientific process, this level of failure slows scientific progress, wastes time and resources and costs taxpayers excesses of $28 billion a year, writes NPR science correspondent Richard Harris in his book “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Rigor-Mortis-Science-Worthless-Billions/dp/0465097901?tag=nypost-20" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">Rigor Mortis: How Sloppy Science Creates Worthless Cures, Crushes Hope, and Wastes Billions</a>” (Basic Books).</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
“When you read something, take it with a grain of salt,” Harris tells The Post. “Even the best science can be misleading, and often what you’re reading is not the best science.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Take one particularly enraging example: For many years research on breast cancer was conducted on misidentified melanoma cells, which means that thousands of papers published in credible scientific journals were actually studying the wrong cancer. “It’s impossible to know how much this sloppy use of the wrong cells has set back research into breast cancer,” writes Harris.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Another study claimed to have invented a blood test that could detect ovarian cancer — which would mean much earlier diagnosis. The research was hailed as a major breakthrough on morning shows and in newspapers. Further scrutiny, though, revealed the only reason the blood test “worked” was because the researchers tested the two batches on two separate days — all the women with ovarian cancer on one day, and without the disease the next. Instead of measuring the differences in the cancer, the blood test had, in fact, measured the day-to-day differences in the machine.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
So why are so many tests bogus? Harris has some thoughts.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
For one, science is hard. Everything from unconscious bias — the way researchers see their data through the rosy lens of their own theses — to the types of beaker they use or the bedding that they keep mice in can cloud results and derail reproducibility.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Then there is the funding issue. During the heyday of the late ’90s and early aughts, research funding increased until Congress decided to hold funding flat for the next decade, creating an atmosphere of intense, some would say unhealthy, competition among research scientists. Now only 17 percent of grants get funded (compared to a third three decades ago). Add this to the truly terrible job market for post-docs — only 21 percent land tenure track jobs — and there is a greater incentive to publish splashy counterintuitive studies, which have a higher likelihood of being wrong, writes Harris.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
One effect of this “pressure to publish” situation is intentional data manipulation, where scientists cherry-pick the information that supports a hypothesis while ignoring the data that doesn’t — an all too common problem in academic research, writes Harris.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
“There’s a constant scramble for research dollars. Promotions and tenure depend on making splashy discoveries. There are big rewards for being first, even if the work ultimately fails the test of time,” writes Harris.</div>

By prophylactic vaccination of adults and especially children against measles, the pharmaceutical industry has earned Billions over a 40-year period. The judges at the German Federal Supreme Court (BGH) confirmed in a recent ruling that measles virus do not exist though. Furthermore: There is not a single scientific study in the world which could prove the existence of such virus so far. This raises the question of what was actually injected into millions of German citizens over the past decades. According to the judgment by the Supreme Court, it may not have been a vaccine against measles.</div>

The Federal Supreme Court (BGH) has ruled in the measles virus trial. The First Civil Senate of the BGH has confirmed the judgment by the Higher Regional Court of Stuttgart (OLG) of the 16 February 2016. The sum of €100,000 which I had offered as a reward for scientific proof of the existence of the alleged measles virus does not have to be paid to the plaintiff. The plaintiff also was ordered to bear all procedural costs.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px; word-wrap: break-word;">
Five experts have been involved in the case and presented the results of scientific studies. All five experts, including Prof. Dr. Dr. Andreas Podbielski who had been appointed by the OLG Stuttgart as the preceding court, have consistently found that none of the six publications which have been introduced to the trial, contains scientific proof of the existence of the alleged measles virus.</div>

<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Genetics falsifies thesis of existence</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px; word-wrap: break-word;">
In the trial, the results of research into so-called genetic fingerprints of alleged measles virus have been introduced. Two recognised laboratories, including the world’s largest and leading genetic Institute, arrived at exactly the same results independently.The results prove that the authors of the six publications in the measles virus case were wrong, and as a direct result all measles virologists are still wrong today: They have misinterpreted ordinary constituents of cells as part of the suspected measles virus.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px; word-wrap: break-word;">
Because of this error, during decades of consensus building process, normal cell constituents were mentally assembled into a model of a measles virus. To this day, an actual structure that corresponds to this model has been found neither in a human, nor in an animal. With the results of the genetic tests, all thesis of existence of measles virus has been scientifically disproved.</div>

The authors of the six publications and all other persons involved, did not realise the error because they violated the fundamental scientific duty, which is the need to work “lege artis”, i.e. in accordance with internationally defined rules and best practice of science. They did not carry out any control experiments. Control experiments would have protected authors and mankind from this momentous error. This error became the basis of <a href="http://www.wissenschafftplus.de/uploads/article/Wissenschafftplus_Viren_entwirren.pdf" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none;">belief in the existence</a> of any disease-causing viruses. The expert appointed by the court, Prof. Dr. Dr. Podbielski, answering to the relevant question by the court, as per page 7 of the <a href="http://www.wissenschafftplus.de/uploads/article/Protokoll_13_4_20150001.pdf" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none;">protocol</a> explicitly confirmed that the authors did not conduct any control experiments.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px; word-wrap: break-word;">
The OLG Stuttgart on 16 February 2016 overturned the judgment of the court of first instance, dismissed the action and referred, inter alia, to the central message of Prof. Podbielski with respect to the six publications. The plaintiff filed an appeal against the judgment of the OLG to the Supreme Court. As reason he stated his subjective, yet factually false perception of the trial sequence at the court in Stuttgart, and the assertion that our naming of facts about measles posed a threat to public health. The plaintiff’s position was rejected by the Supreme Court in plain words. Thus, the Supreme Court confirmed the <a href="http://lrbw.juris.de/cgi-bin/laender_rechtsprechung/document.py?Gericht=bw&GerichtAuswahl=Oberlandesgerichte&Art=en&sid=46bf3db2df690aba6e4874acafaf45b6&nr=20705&pos=0&anz=1" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none;">judgment of the OLG Stuttgart</a> from 16 February 2016.</div>

<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Conclusions</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px; word-wrap: break-word;">
The six publications submitted in the trial are the main relevant publications on the subject of “measles virus.” Since further to these six publications there not any other publications which would attempt by scientific methods to prove the existence of the measles virus, the Supreme Court judgment in the measles virus trial and the results of the genetic tests have consequences: Any national and international statements on the alleged measles virus, the infectivity of measles, and on the benefit and safety of vaccination against measles, are since then of no scientific character and have thus been deprived of their legal basis.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px; word-wrap: break-word;">
Upon enquiries which had been triggered by the measles virus contest, the head of the National Reference Institute for Measles at the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), Prof. Dr. Annette Mankertz, admitted an important fact. This admission may explain the increased rate of vaccination-induced disabilities, namely of vaccination against measles, and why and how specifically this kind of vaccination seems to increasingly trigger autism.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px; word-wrap: break-word;">
Prof. Mankertz has admitted that the “measles virus” contains typical cell’s natural components (ribosomes, the protein factories of the cell). Since the vaccination against measles contains whole “whole measles virus”, this vaccine contains cell’s own structures. This explains why vaccination against measles causes frequent and more severe allergies and autoimmune reactions than other types of vaccination. The court expert Prof. Podbielski stated on several occasions that by the assertion of the RKI with regard to ribosomes in the measles virus, the thesis of existence of measles virus has been falsified.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px; word-wrap: break-word;">
In the trial it was also put on record that the highest German scientific authority in the field of infectious diseases, the RKI, contrary to its legal remit as per § 4 Infection Protection Act (IfSG), has failed to create tests for alleged measles virus and to publish these. The RKI claims that it made internal studies on measles virus, however refuses to hand over or publish the results.</div>

Vaccines such as the MMR (measles-mumps-rubella), and especially the annual flu shot, are linked to a range of neuro-psychiatric conditions, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), ADHD, bipolar and major depression, a new study has discovered.</div>

<strong style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Although the researchers say they can't establish a direct cause-and-effect association, the problems are happening within days and weeks after <a href="http://www.wddty.com/magazine/2013/march/keep-it-from-the-parents-what-the-government-doesnt-tell-you-about-vaccinations.html" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #ef4236; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">vaccination</a>.</strong></div>

The researchers tracked the vaccine history of children aged between six and 15 who had been diagnosed with a neuro-psychiatric condition. They were then matched against similar children who didn't have any of the problems.</div>

<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 1rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The strongest link was found in cases of anorexia, where 21 per cent of cases had had a vaccination in the six months leading up to the diagnosis, followed by OCD and nervous tics, where 16 per cent of cases had recently been vaccinated.</div>

Although the MMR was one of the vaccines the children had been given, the problems were more likely to occur after a <a href="http://www.wddty.com/magazine/2016/december/led-by-the-nose-new-dangers-of-the-flu-vaccine.html" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #ef4236; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">flu shot</a>, a vaccine that still uses thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative. The researchers from Pennsylvania State University college of medicine say their findings are in line with those from other countries that found that people given the H1N1 flu shot were more likely to develop narcolepsy, the sleeping disorder.</div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
(<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">Natural News</a>) U.K. supermarket giant Waitrose has been walking the walk when it comes to environmental issues for at least the past five years. In that time, it stopped sending waste to landfills, started selling “ugly,” less than perfect-looking produce, and began turning any food that could not be donated into electricity.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
That’s already a pretty impressive track record, but the company wanted to take it a step further by reducing the environmental impact of its delivery trucks. Biodiesel fuel was considered and rejected because of its exorbitant cost, and electric trucks were found to be impractical because they make use of heavy batteries that are time-consuming to recharge.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Then they hit on the perfect solution: trucks that are powered by <a href="http://science.naturalnews.com/biomethane.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">compressed natural gas (CNG)</a> made from food waste. Waitrose has become the first European retailer to use these innovative trucks, but other companies are likely to follow suit because of the enormous benefits involved.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Though the trucks themselves cost about 50 percent more upfront than their mainstream counterparts, the costs are quickly recouped because the fuel is between 35 and 40 percent less expensive than regular fuel. The use of CNG fuel will save the company about $100,000 for each truck over the course of its lifetime.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Other benefits of these special trucks include the fact that they can drive for up to 500 miles on a single tank of fuel, and they emit about 70 percent less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than diesel vehicles. The new trucks are also far quieter than diesel trucks, and are quicker and easier to refuel.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
So, how exactly does this process work? Anaerobic digestion plants capture the biomethane from rotting food, preventing it from being released into the atmosphere. It is added directly to the national gas grid, and CNG Fuel, the company which has partnered with the supermarket and operates the fueling stations, makes the gas available directly to the Waitrose trucks. (RELATED: Stay updated with the latest in environmental issues at <a href="http://enviro.news/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">Enviro.news</a>.)</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
At present, Waitrose is only making use of 10 of these special trucks, but there is more than enough fuel from food waste to fuel thousands more. Indeed, CNG could replace half the gas in the grid by as early as 2020, if all food and other waste were utilized in this way.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Even with the resources available right now, many more trucks could take to the road.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
“As of today, there is sufficient biomethane, or renewable gas, from food waste to fuel thousands of trucks — I would say somewhere between 2,000 and 5,000 trucks,” said Philip Fjeld, CEO of CNG Fuels.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
When put into the gas grid, other uses for biomethane fuel include generating electricity, providing fuel for cooking and heating, and for firing boilers. Since it is organic in nature, waste that remains after the biomethane is produced can also be used as a natural fertilizer for crops. (RELATED: Learn about an <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/055798_food_waste_organic_fertilizer_drought.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">organic, natural fertilizer being used by farmers in drought-stricken areas</a>.)</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
More and more sewage treatment plants in Europe and the U.S. are waking up to the possibilities of biomethane. Approximately 15 plants in this country are already sending food waste, mostly from commercial sources, to facilities which generate fuel. A further 860 sewage treatment plants are generating biomethane on-site to help provide power to run their own facilities.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
“We no longer consider [food] to be a waste product — it’s something we’re trying to manage as a resource,” said Mark Hutchinson, an agricultural extension professor at the University of Maine.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
It is truly encouraging to note that both private and other companies are taking the initiative to search for alternative, environmentally-friendly and cost-effective fuel sources. For the moment, however, this incredible resource lies mostly untapped, with much of our food waste still ending up in landfills.</div>

(<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">Natural News</a>) A once-secret document detailing links between cell phones and brain cancer has been released by order of a California court. Entitled, “Cell Phones and Health,” the document was demanded in a lawsuit filed by Joel Moskowitz, Ph.D., director of the Center for Family and Community Health at UC Berkeley’s School of Public Health.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">

<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
“I would like this document to see the light of day because it will inform the public that there is concern within the California Department of Public Health that cellphone radiation is a risk, and it will provide them with some information about how to reduce those risks,” <a href="http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2017/03/02/cellphone-radiation-exposure-fact-sheet-draft-released-by-california-health-officials/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Moskowitz told a local CBS affiliate</a>.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
The document says that “long-term cell phone use may increase the risk of brain cancer and other health problems” and admits that “cell phone EMFs can affect nearby cells and tissues.” In a special warning section about children, it also explains that “EMFs can pass deeper into a child’s brain than an adult’s.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
EMF stands for ElectroMagnetic Field. Follow more <a href="http://emf.news/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">news about EMF at EMF.news</a>. According to the document, there’s no evidence that EMF blocking devices for cell phones actually work, by the way. (I haven’t personally tested any in my lab, so I can’t say whether this is true or false, but from a commonsense scientific point of view, if they really blocked EMF signals from the phone, the phone would no longer be able to make calls because it couldn’t communicate with cell towers.)</div>
<h2 style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">California government deliberately hid this information from the public</strong></h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
The California government <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">actively hid this document from the public for at least seven years</strong>, likely under pressure from industry lobbyists who have long sought to conceal the evidence of harm caused by cell phone radiation. In the same way that biotech companies seek to conceal the <a href="http://gmo.news/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">harm of GMOs</a>… and pesticides manufacturers conceal the <a href="http://pesticides.news/2017-02-06-entire-global-food-supply-to-be-contaminated-by-genetically-modified-organisms-used-for-pest-control-warn-scientists.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">harm of pesticides</a>… and vaccine promoters conceal the harm of <a href="http://vaccines.news/2017-03-02-mercury-in-vaccines-may-be-up-to-50-times-more-toxic-to-the-brain-than-mercury-in-fish.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">mercury in vaccines</a>, the cell phone industry doesn’t want any evidence linking EMFs and brain cancer to see the light of day.</div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Cell Phones and Health</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Cell phones, like other electronic devices, emit a kind of energy called radiofrequency EMFs (electromagnetic fields). Health officials are concerned about possible health effects from cell phone EMFs because some recent studies suggest that long-term cell phone use may increase the risk of brain cancer and other health problems. For those concerned about possible health problems, this fact sheet provides information about how to lower exposure to EMFs from cell phones.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">What do we know about cell phones and health?</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Several studies have found that people with certain kinds of brain cancer were more likely to have used cell phones for 10 years or more. Most of the cancers were on the same side of the head that people usually held their phones. Although the chance of developing brain cancer is very small, these studies suggest that regular cell phone use increases the risk of developing some kinds of brain cancer. Some studies have also linked exposure to EMFs from cell phones to fertility problems. As more studies are done and we learn more about possible risks for cancer and other health problems linked to cell phone use, the recommendations on this fact sheet may change.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">What are EMFs?</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
EMFs are types of radiation. They are created by all electronic devices. Some devices, such as watches, create weak EMFs that are considered harmless. Others, like X-ray machines, generate very strong EMFs that can damage cells and tissues, and cause cancer and other health effects. This is why we try to only use X-rays when necessary. Cell phones make relatively weak EMFs, somewhat less than those from microwave ovens, but because they are used frequently and kept close to the head and body, cell phone EMFs can affect nearby cells and tissues.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">EMF exposure from cell phones</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Your exposure to cell phone EMFs depends mostly on your distance from the phone, the strength of the EMF, and how long and how often you use the phone. The farther away the phone is from your body, the lower the exposure. Your cell phone produces stronger EMFs at the start of a call, when it is trying to connect to a cell tower, and also when only one or two bars are showing. Your phone also emits stronger EMFs when used in a moving car, bus, or train, as the phone switches connections from one cell tower to another. Finally, some phones produce stronger EMFs than others.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">What can I do to reduce my exposures to EMFs from cell phones?</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
To lower your exposure to EMFs from cell phones:</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Increase the distance between you and your phone by:</div>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box;">Using the speaker phone.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box;">Sending text messages.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box;">Use a headset and carry your phone away from your body. EMFs from wireless (Bluetooth) and wired headsets are usually weaker than those from a cell phone.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box;">Keep your phone away from your body. A cell phone that is on can emit EMFs even when it is not being used. Do not sleep with your cell phone near you or carry it in a pocket or directly on your body unless the phone is turned off.</li>
</ul>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Limit your cell phone use when reception is weak or increase the distance between you and the phone. When your phone shows only one or two bars, it is emitting stronger EMFs than when three, four, or five bars are showing.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Reduce the amount of time spent talking on a cell phone.</div>
<ul style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<li style="box-sizing: border-box;">Keep cell phone calls short, even when using a wireless or wired headset.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box;">Use speaker phone mode or a corded phone for longer conversations.</li>
</ul>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Corded phones produce very weak EMFs.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Take off your headset when you’re not on a call. Wireless and wired headsets emit EMFs even when you are not using your phone.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Do not rely on devices that claim to shield or neutralize EMFs from cell phones. These devices have not been shown to reduce exposures.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">What about cell phone EMFs and children?</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
EMFs can pass deeper into a child’s brain than an adult’s. Also, the brain is still developing through the teen years, which may make children and teens more sensitive to EMF exposures. For these reasons, parents may want to limit their child’s cell phone use to texting, important calls, and emergencies. Pregnant women, children, and teens can also follow the tips for reducing exposure listed above.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Where can I get more information?</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
For more information about EMF exposures and cell phones, please send an email to: cellinfo@cdph.ca.gov</div>

<h1 class="entry-title post-header" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', Calibri, Candara, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 39px; font-weight: 300; line-height: 1.1; margin: 21px 0px 10.5px;">
Shooting the Messenger: the heroism of Andrew Wakefield</h1>
<div class="entry-content" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', Calibri, Candara, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
There he was on Valentine’s Day last week, Andrew Wakefield, appearing back in the UK for the first time in a decade, to present the European premiere of his movie VAXXED, which concerns all the statistical jiggery-pokery employed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the government body invested with protecting the nation against infectious diseases, to conceal any link between the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine and autism. <span id="more-3550" style="box-sizing: border-box;"></span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Wakefield, you may remember, is the British gastroenterologist whose research had first uncovered a possible link between the triple vaccine and the development of autism and gastrointestinal disorders.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Wakefield was demonized by the UK press until, in a kangaroo court of the General Medical Council, his license to practice medicine was revoked.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">US government deception</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
The authorities and the media did not shut him up, however. Bloodied but unbowed, Wakefield moved to America, carried on doing research into the MMR and has produced VAXXED, the extraordinary movie interviewing CDC insiders detailing exactly how the government agency managed to massage away, in their statistical analysis, a giant increase in autism among African American boys in the study.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
The risk was never published because the CDC cherry-picked which participants they wanted to include in their analysis, reducing their study sample by 41 per cent, disqualifying most of the African Americans included in the original data, and skewing the final results to make it appear the vaccine carried minimal risk.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
In VAXXED, Dr Walter Thompson one of the CDC insiders involved in the study finally speaks up, to explain about the agency’s deception.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Compelled to make an honest breast of it, he sent thousands of xeroxed pages of the original full data to Dr Brian Hooker, who re-analyzed it and finally discovered an enormous excess risk of autism among children who get the vaccine.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Heartbreaking stories</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
The movie includes heartbreaking home videos from parents, showing the stark difference in the development and capabilities of their children right before they received the MMR vaccine and after when they’ve lost speech, sociability, and much more.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Although not in the movie, there’s other evidence from the Journal of Public Health and Epidemiology shows a possible link between the introduction of human fetal cell lines in the manufacture of MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccines and autism.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
A cover up by the very US government body charged with the task of protecting the nation’s health of Watergate-like proportions is pretty scandalous.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
But here’s the biggest scandal of all.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Not one major news outlet on either side of the Atlantic covered the story. Instead, the UK and US press decided to shoot the messenger.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Wakefield called a fraud</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Time magazine highlighted Andy Wakefield in a feature on ‘Great Science Frauds.’ The Huffington Post headlined its article about VAXXED with ‘Disgraced Anti-vaccine Dr Andrew Wakefield Reignites Public Health Fears,’ and, just for good measure, with the subhead: ‘Unethical and immoral but also despicable and irresponsible.’</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
The Times, which has rabidly pursued Wakefield like a pack of dogs after a fox, was apoplectic over the fact that Amazon Instant Video and Apple’s iTunes, were selling the video and demanded that it be immediately stopped.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
The usual ragtag of skeptics, one formerly associated with a lobbying organisation taking donations from Big Pharma and the likes of Coca-Cola, harassed the Curzon, where the UK screening was due to be launched until the theatre pulled it.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
The organizers were reduced to passing around information about the screening surreptitiously as though sharing the address of a speakeasy during Prohibition.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Public hero number 1</strong></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Ultimately all the media’s efforts at suppression didn’t work. It was shown at Regent’s College, at an even larger venue, and was totally sold-out, with a crowd who gave Wakefield a standing ovation when he appeared on stage.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
And so they should.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Wakefield is a hero. He had a nice life in the UK with a nice job as a well-established gastroenterologist. He saw a link in his pediatric patients presenting with gut problems and autism right after the MMR and had his career destroyed because he felt that simply asking the question about a triple live-vaccine instead of blithely accepting what the pharmaceutical industry maintained about safety was the moral thing to do.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
He’s another Daniel Ellsberg, the US military analyst who in the 1970s risked everything to disclose what became the Pentagon Papers, what the US government was really doing in Vietnam.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Wakefield was just doing the press’s job for them. But instead of going after the story, the press has gone after the messenger. In disclosing Big Pharma’s outrageous deception with the MMR, Wakefield has had to put up with the kind of vilification that would destroy the ordinary man.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Here’s what I, as a journalist, cannot figure out. What is the press doing, siding with the authorities and not digging further? Maybe Trump is right, and the press does have an agenda, and it’s all about protecting the status quo. The good guys have become the bad guys.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
Shame, shame on them.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">

<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
(NaturalNews) Things are finally turning around for the better in India after more than a decade of progressive crop failures, bankruptcies, and even suicides resulting from the country’s unfortunate adoption of biotechnology. Going against the grain of mainstream thought, many Indian farmers are deciding to ditch the GMOs and chemicals and go completely organic — and the results thus far have not only been astounding, but entirely contradictory to industry claims that <a href="http://gmo.news/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">GMOs</a> are somehow necessary to feed the world.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Some news outlets are calling it India’s “rice revolution” — a unique method of growing this long-prized grain that involves using variant planting methods and less water. Farmers like Sumant Kumar, who was recently featured in a piece published by the <i style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Guardian</i>, have been utilizing this novel technique to grow rice in relatively small land plots without <a href="http://pesticide.news/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">pesticides, herbicides</a>, or other synthetic additives — and you wouldn’t believe how much they’re producing.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Kumar, who cultivates rice in India’s poorest state, Bihar, is reportedly able to produce an astonishing 22.4 tons of rice per season on just one hectare (about 2.5 acres) of land, using only manure that he gathers from his farmyard. This exceptionally high volume is a world record, topping even the most “advanced” growing methods touted by international international humanitarian organizations as producing the highest yields. (RELATED: Learn more about <a href="http://growbox.naturalnews.com/growbox.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">how to grow your own food at home naturally.</a>)</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
“It beat not just the 19.4 tonnes achieved by the ‘father of rice,’ the Chinese agricultural scientist Yuan Longping, but the World Bank-funded scientists at the International Rice Research Institute in the Philippines, and anything achieved by the biggest European and American seed and GM companies,” wrote John Vidal for <i style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Guardian</i>.</div>
<h2 style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Growing crops naturally is the best way to produce the highest yields of healthy food</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Fortunately for India, Kumar isn’t alone in his endeavors. Many of his friends, neighbors, and even rivals in nearby states are adopting the natural growing methods that he uses after observing their success, which is unmatched by anything else in modern agriculture. Numerous other farmers have reported yields topping 17 tons of rice per hectare, which in some cases is more than <i style="box-sizing: border-box;">double</i> what they were producing using other methods such as biotechnology.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
Kumar’s successes have been so great that he’s on occasion been accused of “cheating.” Even the state’s head of agriculture, a rice farmer himself, had his doubts — he actually came out to Kumar’s village to personally verify that he had, indeed, produced the 22.4 tons of rice on one hectare that he’d claimed.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
The process Kumar and his friends are using to grow rice with this high level of success is known as the System of Rice (or root) Intensification, or SRI. It is being used to grow not only rice, but also wheat, potatoes, sugar cane, yams, tomatoes, garlic, aubergine, and a host of other crops at yields far higher than anything biotechnology <a href="http://goldenrice.fetch.news/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">or so-called “Golden Rice”</a> has to offer.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
“Instead of planting three-week-old rice seedlings in clumps of three or four in waterlogged fields, as rice farmers around the world traditionally do, the Darveshpura farmers carefully nurture only half as many seeds, and then transplant the young plants into fields, one by one, when much younger,” <i style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Guardian</i> explains about how it works.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
“Additionally, they space them at 25cm intervals in a grid pattern, keep the soil much drier and carefully weed around the plants to allow air to their roots. The premise that ‘less is more’ was taught by Rajiv Kumar, a young Bihar state government extension worker who had been trained in turn by Anil Verma of a small Indian NGO called Pran (Preservation and Proliferation of Rural Resources and Nature), which has introduced the SRI method to hundreds of villages in the past three years.”</div>

<br />
(NaturalNews) Urban renewal on a couple of acres in a northern section of Detroit, Michigan doesn’t mean fancy street signs, sprawling apartment complexes or bicycle lanes. It means a vision for clean food and sustainable agriculture to create a new kind of urban development called an “agrihood.” Parcels of land formerly in disarray are being dug up and retrofitted as an urban farm and more under the direction of the 501 (3) (c) group called the Michigan Urban Farming Initiative (MUFI).<br />
<br />
As reported by Crainsdetroit.com, since 2011, when this all volunteer organization was started, 8000 volunteers have put in a total of 80,000 hours on their urban organic farm and produced over 50,000 pounds of free produce to “neighborhood residences, area churches and food pantries.” Trueactivist.com reports that plans are also in the works to build “3,200 square foot Community Resource Center,” which will serve as volunteer headquarters and a place to teach interested parties, especially children, about health, clean food and sustainable agriculture. A 200 tree orchard and a health food café is also in the blueprints.<br />
<br />
The group has attracted $4 million in corporate investment dollars from General Motors, BASF SE, Sustainable Brands for MUFI and surrounding neighborhoods in Detroit’s North End. Twenty-something MUFI co-founder Tyson Gersh explains that their mission is not just about using available land to feed families who are hungry. The money is coming, says Gersh, because the initiative is a “driving force in rethinking how urban spaces are developed.”<br />
<br />
One problem MUFI is also tackling is urban blight, or abandoned houses and buildings in such disrepair that they need to be demolished. In one instance MUFI decided not to pay for the expense of removing the foundation. Instead they are retrofitting the basement to use it as a retention pond for crop water. Additionally, a shipping container building will be constructed on site that will house an intern to manage the farm and do agricultural research.<br />
<br />
The government of Detroit hasn’t quite figured out how to zone or manage future agrihoods. Gersh was able to acquire the original property through an “adopt- a- lot” program and now they utilize “20 parcels from private owners and county foreclosure program.” Approval for ancillary agrihood activities, or acquiring more land, means they need a “yes” from multiple government agencies like the Land Bank Authority, Detroit’s City Council and/or the Planning and Development Council. Detroitnews.com says those leaders will have this on their agenda early next year.<br />

(NaturalNews) In the current ridiculous battle over "real news" vs. "fake news," the establishment media liars all claim that climate change is the perfect example of how "fake news" keeps interfering with their truthful facts. They repeatedly claim that <b style="color: #333333;">97% of scientists agree on man-made climate change</b>, and therefore anyone who disagrees is obviously shoveling "fake" news.<br />
<br />
But wait a second. Where does that "97%" claim really come from? They sure repeat it a lot. Is it a legitimate representation of the science?<br />
<br />
Author Mark Steyn dug into that question in the search for a more authoritative answer. What he uncovered was so much fraud and deception by climate change propagandists that he compiled an entire book on the matter entitled <a href="http://www.amazon.com/%2522A-Disgrace-Profession%2522-Steyn-editor/dp/0986398330/" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">A Disgrace to the Profession</a>. Here's an excerpt that explains the shocking intellectual fraud behind the "97% of scientists" claim:<br />
<br />
<i>An opinion survey of earth scientists on global climate change was conducted by Margaret R K Zimmerman, MS, and published by the University of Illinois in 2008.<br /><br />Aside from his support from Dr Pantsdoumi, Mann often claims the imprimatur of "settled science": 97 per cent of the world's scientists supposedly believe in catastrophic anthropogenic global warming requiring massive government intervention. That percentage derives from a survey conducted for a thesis by M R K Zimmerman.<br /><br /><b style="color: #333333;">The "survey" was a two-question, online questionnaire sent to 10,257 earth <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/scientists.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">scientists</a>, of whom 3,146 responded.</b><br /><br />Of the responding scientists, <b style="color: #333333;">96.2 per cent came from North America</b>.<br /><br />Only 6.2 per cent came from Canada. So the United States is overrepresented even within that North American sample.<br /><br />Nine per cent of US respondents are from California. So California is overrepresented within not just the US sample: it has over twice as large a share of the sample as Europe, Asia, Australia, the Pacific, Latin America and Africa combined.<br /><br />Of the ten per cent of non-US respondents, Canada has 62 per cent.<br /><br />Not content with such a distorted sample, <b style="color: #333333;">the researchers then selected 79 of their sample and declared them "experts."</b><br /><br />Of those 79 scientists, two were excluded from a second supplementary question. So 75 out of 77 made it through to the final round, and 97.4 per cent were found to agree with "the consensus". That's where the 97 per cent comes from.<br /><br />So this is a very Michael Mann "reconstruction": just as a couple of Californian bristlecones can determine the <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/climate.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">climate</a> for a millennium, so <b style="color: #333333;">a couple of dozen Californian scientists can determine the consensus of the world</b>.<br /><br />Nonetheless, the compilers also invited comments from respondents and published them in the appendices. In terms of specific scientific material, the hockey stick attracted three comments - one blandly positive, the other two not so much.</i><br />
<br />
<h1 style="color: black; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 26px; line-height: 29px; margin: 30px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">
Wow, you mean the 97% consensus number comes from just 75 scientists that were hand-picked from an email survey?</h1>
Yep. Out of the hundreds of thousands of scientists in the world, only 75 of them were selected to "count" for the climate change survey that every mainstream media <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/news.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">news</a> organization quotes as FACT.<br />
<br />
Not quite the "settled science" you've been told, is it? In fact, it all looks rather shoddy.<br />
<br />
Yet this is the sort of propaganda that passes as "real news" while anyone who questions obviously faulty science claims is said to be trafficking in "<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/fake_news.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">fake news</a>."<br />
<br />
So if "real news" is based on the cherry-picked answers from a wildly distorted, misrepresentative group of scientists whose responses were compiled by a pro-climate change "scientist" who obviously altered the responses to fit her own subjective beliefs, <b style="color: #333333;">just how solid is the claimed authority of "real" news authenticity in the first place?</b><br />
<br />
Furthermore, the very idea that science is "settled" is anti-scientific. <b style="color: #333333;">Science is never really settled</b>, since the heart of legitimate science is an openness to exploration, discovery and revolutions in new ideas that render old ideas obsolete. Yet today, we are told by the <i>Ministry of Truth</i> fact checkers and monopolistic purveyors of self-proclaimed "real news" that <b style="color: #333333;">only their views are legitimate</b> and no one else is allowed to even question a "settled" set of beliefs.<br />
<br />
<h1 style="color: black; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 26px; line-height: 29px; margin: 30px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">
"Consensus science" is unscientific by definition... reality isn't decided by a consensus of faulty human beliefs</h1>
Thus, the very approach of proclaiming science to be "settled" is, itself, anti-scientific. Any set of supposed facts that cannot withstand questioning, criticism or debate is no science at all. Yet stifling debate is precisely what the new "news truth" brigade is attempting to accomplish: the elimination of scientific dissent and alternative views. They want to turn every <i>discussion</i> (a two-way street) into a <i>stern lecturing</i> (a one-way demand) of those who oppose the "consensus" view being shoved down all our throats.<br />
<br />
When scientific dissent is silenced by cognitive totalitarians, what you end up with is <b style="color: #333333;">a cult of establishment "scientism"</b> rooted in false notions pretending to be science. Perhaps that's why famed physicist Richard Feynman once said, "Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts." If he were alive today, there's no question he'd be calling bulls##t on the climate change fraud.<br />
<br />
<h1 style="color: black; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 26px; line-height: 29px; margin: 30px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">
Lies do not become facts just because the New York Times repeats them</h1>
All this explains why everything the lying mainstream media tells you about so-called "science" is a collection of carefully constructed lies: Vaccines are completely safe, GMOs have no environmental risks, the stock market will always go up forever, aspartame is safe for babies, pesticides don't cause cancer and human biosludge strewn onto farmers' fields is just "organic fertilizer."<br />
<br />
These are the kinds of lies they want to codify as "accepted truth" while decrying any dissenting views as non-credible.<br />
<br />
Well, I've got news for Google, Facebook and the mainstream <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/media.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">media</a>: <b style="color: #333333;">You've already flushed your credibility down the toilet</b>. Nobody believes you anymore, and by censoring the alternative media, all you're going to do is rapidly lose more readers by the millions as they turn to the only media where they can read the truth: the <b style="color: #333333;">independent media</b>.<br />
<br />
Want to read the real truth on almost any topic? <b style="color: #333333;">Avoid the entire establishment media</b> as well as "gatekeeper" websites like Google, Facebook and Yahoo. They are now coordinating to silence or censor all views that don't support their twisted, fabricated, false "facts" (which are all politically motivated, by the way).<br />

(NaturalNews) Is bio-agriculture giant Monsanto, king of genetically modified foods and seeds, about to suffer an irreversible decline while the planet Earth gets a huge chemical reprieve?<br />
<br />
Well, it may be a bit too early to declare the St. Louis-based corporation dead in the water, but that day may soon be upon us, thanks to a nifty new pesticide patent that would make BioAg chemicals unnecessary.<br />
<br />
As reported by <a href="http://anonhq.com/monsanto-threatened-new-bio-breakthrough/" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">the website Anonymous</a>, one man who has dedicated his life to the study of mushrooms may have just stumbled upon the one invention that will dramatically change the way we protect food crops from voracious pests.<br />
<br />
Paul Stamets has unearthed medical cure after cure, and he says the key to saving the planet can be found in the mushroom.<br />
<br />
Stamets, one of the world's leading mycologists – if not <i>the</i> top researcher of fungi – filed a patent in 2001 that has since been all but ignored. Why? Because most of his research has been viewed as hostile to conventional industries, including the pesticide industry. Anonymous notes that some executives of the pesticide industry have remarked that the <a href="https://www.google.com/patents/US20040161440?dq=paul+stamets&hl=en&sa=X&ei=8dLrVL2XLcOeggTOsISIDQ&ved=0CE4Q6AEwBw" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">patent he filed</a> was the most disruptive they had ever seen.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #333333;">Kills pests naturally and with zero impact on the environment</b><br />
<br />
And indeed, a read of the patent reveals a remarkable claim.<br />
<br />
"The present invention relates to the use of fungal mycelium as a biopesticide. More particularly, the invention relates to the control and destruction of insects, including carpenter ants, fire ants, termites, flies, beetles, cockroaches and other pests, using fungal mycelia as both attractant and infectious agent," the <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/patent.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">patent</a> says.<br />
<br />
In other words, fungus that can be present on crops will both attract destructive pests and then infect and kill them after they have eaten it. In his patent, Stamets claims that more than one fungus can be used in combination, can be dried or freeze-dried, then packaged and reactivated for use "as an effective bioinsecticide."<br />
<br />
No more chemicals. No more spraying. No more need for Monsanto's chemical-first approach to growing our food.<br />
<br />
In his patent Stamets noted that the widespread use of chemical <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/pesticides.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">pesticides</a> is a primary cause of a number of secondary environmental problems that occur besides the death of targeted pests. They include soil poisoning, the toxifying of underlying water tables and aquifers, as well as the pollution of surface water due to runoff.<br />
<br />
In addition, they lead to increases in cancer, allergies, neurological diseases, immune disorders Even the deaths of some agricultural workers and consumers have been linked to the use of chemical pesticides.<br />
<br />
Increasingly regulated and even banned in some countries, chemical pesticides like Monsanto's Roundup, with the <a href="http://glyphosate.news/2016-08-30-investigation-into-top-secret-studies-reveal-glyphosates-link-to-cancer.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">cancer-causing primary ingredient glyphosate</a>, have become so dangerous that many communities are scrambling for natural solutions to pest problems.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #333333;">Who knew mushrooms could be so lethal to pests? This guy did</b><br />
<br />
"Compounding these problems, many pest type or vermin insects have developed a broad spectrum of resistance to chemical pesticides, resulting in few commercially available pesticides that are effective without thorough and repeated applications," the patent says. "In addition to being largely ineffective and difficult and costly to apply, chemical pesticides present the further disadvantage of detrimental effects on non-target species, resulting in secondary pest outbreaks."<br />
<br />
But his invention, he wrote, offers the agriculture industry an "environmentally benign" alternative to insect control by working to attract insects that latent preconidial mycelium that is fresh, dried or freeze-dried, that later infects and kills the host.<br />
<br />
Infected insects will then carry the fungal hyphae back to the central colony, then disperse the fungal pathogen even further.<br />
<br />
In essence, he wrote, fungal mycelium is both a bait/attractant as well as a food insecticide, and all without harming one thing in the environment.<br />
<br />
It's a harmless <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/pesticide.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">pesticide</a> that works without genetically modifying our food, poisoning our earth and filling humans with toxins. Using just mushrooms.<br />
<br />
Now – who will step up and market it? You can bet it won't be Monsanto.<br />

While countries like Australia <a href="http://www.evil.news/">demonize</a> other nations for their lack of progressiveness, recent developments suggest that its government is taking away people’s freedom to think for themselves, slowly but surely chipping away at those who have dissenting opinions. The evidence?<br />
The newly released vaccination standards provided by The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia in response to what the organization described as, “a small number of nurses and midwives promoting anti-vaccination via social media.”<br />
In their statement, they wrote that the board was merely taking the time to make its expectations in regards to <a href="http://www.vaccines.news/">vaccination</a> and vaccination advice very clear to registered nurses, enrolled nurses and midwives.<br />
“The board expects all registered nurses, enrolled nurses and midwives to use the best available evidence in making practice decisions.”<br />
This sentiment might have been acceptable, if it wasn’t coupled with the organization also prompting people to tattle on each other.<br />
You see, the board is also urging members of the public to come forward and report nurses and midwives who may be expounding anti-vaccination beliefs. Surely anyone who goes against the grain deserves to be punished?<br />
If the <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/medical.html">medical</a> industry was as strictly regulated as it purports itself to be, perhaps so many people wouldn’t be dying each year from medical errors.<br />
An estimated <span>18,000 to 54,000 people in Australia</span> <a href="http://www.medicalerroraustralia.com/">lose their lives to medical mistakes</a> each year –<br />
but the industry continues to insist that its those pesky thoughts that are really putting people in jeopardy.<br />
How dare anyone want to help people and think for themselves at the same time?<br />
In their statement, the board noted that any reports will not be taken lightly. “The board will consider whether the nurse or midwife has breached their professional obligations and will treat these matters seriously.”<br />
To make matters worse, not only will these brave <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/nurses.html">nurses</a> and midwives be reported by people who may once have been their friends or colleagues, but the promotion of what the government deems “misleading or deceptive information” is a serious offense.<br />
And boy, will they take it seriously. Under national law, the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency is able to prosecute anyone who commits such an act.<br />
While we all know that the true deception lies in the promotion of vaccines as a public health necessity, we also know that mainstream medicine will do anything to protect their precious immunizations.<br />
Dr. Hannah Dahlen, a professor of midwifery at the University of Western Sydney and the spokeswoman for the Australian College of Midwives, told <i>The Guardian</i> that nurses and midwives are respected individuals who play an important role in society, and that she believes that <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/people.html">people</a> take their advice quite seriously.<br />
She went on to say, “I agree that they have a very serious obligation to provide the best available evidence, and it is of course concerning that some are taking to social media in order to express a position not backed by science.”<br />
But are concerns about what’s in vaccines really not backed by science? Many people might say that continuing to ignore the evidence that there are horrible toxins like <a href="http://www.ecowatch.com/glyphosate-vaccines-1999343362.html">glyphosate</a> and <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/037653_vaccine_additives_thimerosal_formaldehyde.html">mercury</a> in vaccines is what goes against <a href="http://www.cwclabs.com/">science</a>.<br />
In a rather ironic statement, Dahlen declared, “The worry is the confirmation bias that can occur, because people might say: ‘There you go, this is proof that you can’t even have an alternative opinion.’ It might in fact just give people more fuel for their belief systems.”<br />
Legislating dissenting opinions into extinction, and persecuting those who are raising awareness about a very real problem <i>is </i>proof that alternative opinions are not allowed.<br />
That’s really all there is to it; it’s biased, unjust and frankly, more befitting of the very governments Australia speaks out against.</div>

For nearly 50 years, saturated fats were seen as the main culprits behind heart disease, and the discovery of some old research papers has revealed why: the sugar industry was paying scientists to say so. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: 13.680000305175781px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em; padding: 0px;">
Sugar was suspected to cause heart disease in the 1960s, but the Sugar Association threw everyone off the scent by paying the equivalent of $50,000 to three Harvard scientists for a review that minimized the link between sugar and heart disease and, instead, pointed the finger at saturated fats. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: 13.680000305175781px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em; padding: 0px;">
The seminal paper, published in <i>The New England Journal of Medicine </i>in 1967, influenced government health policy and was instrumental in launching the low-fat foods industry. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: 13.680000305175781px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em; padding: 0px;">
But the whole thing was a scam, paid for by the sugar industry, as documents uncovered by a researcher at the University of California at San Francisco have revealed. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: 13.680000305175781px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em; padding: 0px;">

One of the Harvard scientists paid by the sugar industry was D. Mark Hegsted, who went on to become head o<span style="line-height: 13.680000305175781px;">f nutrition at the US Department of Agriculture and who drafted the dietary guidelines for the US in 1977. </span></div>

<span style="line-height: 13.680000305175781px;">The paper was initiated by John Hickson, a prominent sugar-industry executive, who wanted to deflect the blame away from sugar onto saturated fats, which was in line with the theories of Ancel Keys, who falsified research to demonstrate that saturated fats raised cholesterol levels which, in turn, cause cardiovascular disease. </span></div>

(NaturalNews) Dentists everywhere perform them as a way of removing potentially life-threatening infections from their patients' teeth. But root canals aren't the surefire fix that many people think they are, as they not only <i>cause</i> many of the same infections that they supposedly remedy, but research shows that they also significantly <a href="http://www.preventcancer.news/" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">increase one's risk of developing cancer</a> later in life.<br />
<br />
Much of it has to do with the structure of teeth and the invasive way that endodontic treatments disrupt the many miles' worth of canals that already exist within them. Removing the infected pulp from a tooth renders that tooth "dead," leaving it prone to further infections that, in some cases, end up being worse than the infection that was removed.<br />
<br />
This is one of the biggest concerns with root canals, another being the growing body of research which suggests that many of the most common chronic health conditions from which people today suffer likely stem from folks having previously had root canals. Experts like the late Dr. Weston A. Price, <a href="http://www.dentistry.news/" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">a dentist himself</a>, observed this in many of his own patients.<br />
<br />
After hypothesizing that root canals might be silent killers linked to all sorts of health problems, Dr. Price decided to conduct experiments on rabbits using infected teeth, which led him to conclude that teeth with root canals do, indeed, harbor disease-causing bacteria. Root-canaled teeth, he found out, almost <i>always</i> remain infected.<br />
<br />
<h2 style="color: black; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; line-height: 24px; margin: 30px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">
Root canals don't sterilize teeth</h2>
One of the purported benefits of root canals is that they sterilize and seal compromised teeth in order to prevent further infection. But one of Dr. Price's discoveries was that root-canaled <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/teeth.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">teeth</a> can't actually be sterilized. This means that they continue to harbor bacteria and viruses that, in most cases, result in conditions of the heart and circulatory system.<br />
<br />
There's even been a correlation found between <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/root_canals.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">root canals</a> and damage to the central nervous and musculoskeletal systems. Many pathologies seem to have a link to root canals, which Dr. Price outlined extensively in two books he wrote back in the 1920s – work that for many decades was withheld from public purview.<br />
<br />
The American Dental Association (ADA) insists that root canals are safe, but it has never released any scientific evidence as proof to back this unsubstantiated claim.<br />
<br />
<h2 style="color: black; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; line-height: 24px; margin: 30px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">
Root canals promote anaerobic bacterial infections</h2>
Because they cut off all oxygen to teeth, root canals are also antagonists when it comes to provoking infections by anaerobic bacteria, i.e. infections that thrive in environments where no oxygen is present. Anaerobic bacteria are especially problematic because they can take years to show symptoms, and these symptoms are often non-specific, resulting in generalized damage to the immune system.<br />
<br />
Naturally, a <a href="http://superfood.naturalnews.com/superfood.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;">weakened immune system</a> acts as an invitation for all sorts of health conditions to emerge, which is why it's often difficult to trace their cause to root canals. But enough is known about how root canals work to safely conclude that they're a recipe for chronic and underlying infections that are difficult, if not impossible, to eradicate without having the entire tooth extracted.<br />
<br />
This is why it's so important to take care of your teeth by brushing regularly and flossing, as well as keeping your mouth flourishing with beneficial bacteria that help fight off the harmful kind. <a href="http://coconutoilpulling.naturalnews.com/CoconutOilPulling.html" style="color: #3366cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Oil pulling</a> is another great way to stay one step ahead in preventing the type of decay that leads to root canals in the first place.<br />

Unfortunately I became so carried away with my travel arrangements, and socialising, that my time in North America was a time when I completely forgot to take many photos. The few that I did remember to take only give a very limited view and I sincerely apologise for my slackness.<br />
<br />
My plane journey from the UK to Canada terminated in Toronto, which I have written quite extensively about on earlier blogs. This time I travelled upon arrival, to the nearby centre of Guelph at which there is a University that my grandson has been attending as an exchange student to complete his Masters degree in Business Management. Fortunately I did remember to take a few photos on this occasion.<br />

The risk has been highlighted in a major research study, involving more than one million Danish women aged between 15 and 34. On average, the women were 23 per cent more likely to suffer from depression than those not taking the Pill, and were taking an antidepressant for the first time.</div>

Dental amalgam fillings aren’t safe—they leak mercury into our blood stream, say researchers</h1>

Mercury from amalgam dental fillings isn’t safe--it enters the bloodstream and affects the major organs, such as the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs and the immune system itself, a major new study has confirmed.</div>

<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 1rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">People with eight or more fillings are at the greatest risk of major organ damage; they have 150 per cent more mercury in their blood than someone who doesn’t have any fillings. In the US, 25 per cent of the population has 11 or more fillings.</strong></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 1rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
But the risk exists for everyone with mercury fillings, say researchers from the University of Georgia. Our gut transforms the mercury into methyl mercury, the most lethal form of the heavy metal, and other research has shown it can cause damage to the organs even at low levels.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 1rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Dental amalgam—which is 50 per cent mercury—has been used as the standard filling material for 150 years, and the dental associations have always maintained it is safe, and doesn’t enter the blood stream.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 1rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
But when the researchers analysed blood samples from 14,703 adults in the US, they discovered a connection between the levels of mercury in their blood and the number of amalgam fillings they had. “As toxicologists, we know that mercury is poison, but it all depends on the dose. So, if you have one dental filling, maybe it’s OK. But if you have more than eight dental fillings, the potential risk for adverse effect is higher,” said Xiaozhong Yu, one of the researchers and an assistant professor of environmental health science.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 1rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Our mercury levels can also be increased by eating contaminated fish and from our environment.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 1rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Amalgam alternatives, such as dental composite resins, are safer and don’t ‘leak’ into the bloodstream, they say.</div>

Even though fruit has universally been a symbol of healthy eating, many health theories now vilify it.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<em style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">“Don’t eat too much fruit!”</em></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<em style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">“Fruit is fine as long as you stick to apples, grapefruit, berries and other fruits with a lower sugar content.”</em></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
This way of thinking started with the dangerous low-carb diet, which would like you to believe that eating slabs of butter on top of grilled meat is healthier than eating the natural “sugar” in fruit.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The unscientific anti-fruit trend has also been picked up by some raw food advocates, many of which go to the extreme of saying that eating lots of sweet fruit is unnatural and unhealthy.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Even the <em style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">Hippocrates Health Institute</em> launched a fear campaign on eating fruit, claiming that fruit eating is responsible for the common health problems experienced by the majority of raw foodists.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
So let’s take a look at the most common statements made about fruit, and bust them once and for all.</div>

<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Many people think that whenever they eat a lot of sweet fruit, their blood sugar “goes out of wack.” Their interpretation of what is happening to them is often “getting sudden energy, followed by a blood sugar crash.”</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
In other words, they compare their body’s response to eating fruit to response to stimulants such as alcohol or caffeine: a sudden stimulation followed by a depressed, “recovery” state.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
In reality, in a healthy individual, blood sugar will remain stable even if he or she eats a lot of fruit. I have tested this using a blood sugar monitoring device, and I found that it didn’t matter how many bananas I ate, my blood sugar remained normal throughout the day.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Even when I eat more than ten bananas in a day (which I regularly do), my blood sugar stays normal.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Steve Pavlina, a personal development author, <a href="http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2008/02/raw-food-diet/" style="border: 0px; color: #2a6572; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">did a 30-day trial of a 100%, low-fat, fruit-based raw food diet</a>. During these 30 days, he recorded every single meal he ate. He also monitored his blood sugar, weight, blood pressure and other health stats. Here’s what he has to say about the effects of eating fruit on his blood sugar:</div>
<blockquote style="background-image: url(http://renegadehealth.com/blog/wp-content/themes/rhblog/images/blockquotebefore.png); background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; color: #2a6572; font-style: italic; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; quotes: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; padding: 10px 50px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
I monitored my blood sugar using a blood sugar testing device; the same kind diabetics may use. It showed no discernible spikes in blood sugar throughout the trial whatsoever — absolutely none. In fact, my blood sugar remained incredibly steady throughout the trial. My highest blood sugar reading of the trial was 94, which is still medium-low. All that sweet fruit in my diet simply did not have any adverse effect on my blood sugar.</div>
<div style="background-image: url(http://renegadehealth.com/blog/wp-content/themes/rhblog/images/blockquoteafter.png); background-position: 100% 100%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; line-height: 21px; padding: 10px 50px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Eating this way gave my blood sugar more consistency than ever. I couldn’t spike my blood sugar on this diet if I tried. Even eating 19 bananas in one day made no difference.</div>

<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The reason that whole fruit does not spike blood sugar in the same way that refined sugar does is that it contains fiber. In addition to fiber, the natural sugars in fruit are in the form of fructose, sucrose, and glucose. Your body will absorb each type sugar at a different speed. Because the various sugars are combined with fiber, even the highest-sugar fruit will release its sugar very slowly.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
It’s still possible for some people to experience an adverse reaction from eating sweet fruit. In this case, it’s not the fruit that’s to blame in this case, but their overall diet, which is too high in fat. Dr. Neal Barnard explains the situation in his book “<em style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">Breaking the Food Seduction</em>.”</div>
<blockquote style="background-image: url(http://renegadehealth.com/blog/wp-content/themes/rhblog/images/blockquotebefore.png); background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; color: #2a6572; font-style: italic; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; quotes: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; padding: 10px 50px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
“It may surprise you to know that you can actually change your body’s response to any food so that you are better able to handle whatever sugars it might contain. (…)</div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; padding: 10px 50px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Marjorie was one of our research volunteers. In a laboratory test, we asked her to drink a syrup containing 75 grams of pure sugar. Taking blood samples over the next two hours, we saw what happened to her blood sugar. (…) It peaked at about thirty minutes, then quickly cascaded downward. That’s a pretty typical pattern. If your blood sugar falls too precipitously, you may be set up for another binge, which is your body’s way of bringing your blood sugar back up again.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; padding: 10px 50px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Here’s the problem: insulin is the hormone that escorts sugar from your blood stream into the cells of the body. It is like a doorman who turns the knob on the door to each cell, helps sugar go inside, and then closes the door. (…)</div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; padding: 10px 50px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
But everything changes when you eat fatty foods, or when you gain a significant amount of weight. Insulin can’t work in an oil slick. When there is too much fat in the bloodstream, insulin’s hand slips on the knob. Unable to open the door to the cells, insulin lets sugar build up in the blood. Your body responds by making more and more insulin and eventually it will get the sugar into the cells.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; padding: 10px 50px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
(…) Cutting fat from your meals improves what is called insulin sensitivity, meaning that insulin efficiently escorts sugar into the cells of the body. (…)</div>
<div style="background-image: url(http://renegadehealth.com/blog/wp-content/themes/rhblog/images/blockquoteafter.png); background-position: 100% 100%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; line-height: 21px; padding: 10px 50px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
With our guidance, Marjorie adjusted her diet to scrupulously cut fat and boost fiber. A few weeks later we repeated the test. She again drank exactly the same sugar solution, but the changes in her blood sugar were very different. Because the low-fat diet had tuned up her insulin, the blood sugar was more muted, the peak was lower, and the fall was gentler than before. (…) In our clinical studies, we have found that simple diet changes alone boost insulin sensitivity by an average of 24 percent, and it can increase even more if you also exercise.”</div>

2- When eating bananas, you risk a potassium “overdose.”</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
It’s important to make the difference between artificial, supplemental potassium (K), and the naturally occurring potassium in fruits. The FDA does not allow a supplement to contain more than 99 mg. of potassium. But three bananas contain up to 1,200 mg of natural potassium, which will not cause any negative symptoms.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
There’s no point to fear any potassium “overdose” even when eating a fair number of bananas.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Research done on wild monkeys showed that they eat over 6500 milligrams of potassium per day. It would take you over 15 bananas to eat as much potassium as they do.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The current RDAs for potassium are to get a minimum of 4500 mg. a day. Less than 2% of Americans even get the recommended minimum adequate intake of 4,700 a day.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Even eating ten bananas provides slightly LESS than this RDA!</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
I light of this; I do not understand the fear of potassium in bananas.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
In reality, bananas don’t even make the top 50 sources of foods highest in potassium. The idea that bananas are one of the richest sources of potassium is an urban legend.</div>

3- Fruit sugar feeds cancer.</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The theory tossed around by some health authors is that since cancer cells feed on sugar, cancer patients should avoid fruit to make sure those cells don’t grow out of control.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
However, the overwhelming evidence finds fruit eating associated with a reduced incidence of cancer. The American Cancer Society also recommends<a href="http://caonline.amcancersoc.org/cgi/content/full/52/2/92" style="border: 0px; color: #2a6572; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> increasing fruit consumption</a>.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Eating fruit doesn’t “feed” cancer more than it causes it. There’s not a single scientific study that has linked sweet fruit consumption to an increased incidence or growth of cancer.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
All that the research might suggest is that eating glucose and fructose in the form of refined sugar or high-fructose syrup is unhealthy and could even contribute to cancer growth. This has nothing to do with eating fruit.</div>
<h3 style="border: 0px; font-size: 22px; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
4 — Today’s fruits are too hybridized and contain too much sugar.</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
We often hear the claim that “modern” fruit contains too much sugar, as opposed to the low-sugar wild fruits.The critics of fruit tend to view the cultivars and varieties that are available today as “unnatural.” Their claim is that the artificial hybridization of fruit creates an inferior product that is too high in sugar and too low in minerals.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
It’s entirely possible that on average, cultivated fruits contain more sugar than wild fruits.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
As we moved away from a hunter-gatherer type of lifestyle to a more agricultural one, we have selected the varieties that we preferred. Many wild fruits, left on their own, didn’t evolve with the qualities that we naturally seek (such as sweetness).</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
However, not to say that all wild fruit is sour and low in sugar. I have tasted various types of completely unknown fruits in my travels. Many of them were quite sweet and tasty. For example, in Brazil, I tried at least five different fruits that I had never seen before — all of which grew 100% wild. The sweetness was comparable to a sweet white peach.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
But even if it were true that commercial fruits contain more sugar than wild ones, the real question is: does it contain too much?</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
One author points out that “hybridized” fruit acts like processed sugar in the body. This author does not explain how but says that over-consumption of such fruits can lead to dehydration and a slightly diabetic situation.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
All of the symptoms that many people blame on hybridized, sweet fruit are clearly attributable to the very high-fat diet that is so common in the raw food world.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
As for the issue of hybridization, I find it funny that many of these authors would like us to stop eating “hybridized” bananas, carrots and grapes while recommending avocados, sweet potatoes, and kale — all of which are equally hybridized.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The truth is that almost every commonly available fruit OR vegetable is unrecognizable from its wild counterpart.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
A complete return to the wild would mean eating bitter celery, ridiculously sour oranges and mushy and tasteless watermelon. You would have to forgo eating almonds, avocados, and practically any other food on your table!</div>
<h3 style="border: 0px; font-size: 22px; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
5 — Tropical fruits are too high on the glycemic index</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Another strange recommendation is to avoid certain fruits because they are too high on the glycemic index. The culprits are the high-sugar, tropic fruits such as bananas and mangoes.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
What is the glycemic index? It’s a table which describes the average response in blood sugar after the ingestion of a fixed portion of carbohydrate.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Now how is this average created? By averaging the data collected by a certain number of human subjects.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Therefore, this index is unreliable because the blood sugar response to food eaten will vary tremendously from one individual to the next, and even from day to day.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Many factors will influence your blood sugar response from any particular food, including general fitness levels, physical activity on any given day, insulin sensitivity, age, body fat levels, and more.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
By the way, even on this index, almost every fruit is listed as “low” to “moderate” on the index.</div>
<h3 style="border: 0px; font-size: 22px; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
6 — Fruit Causes Dental Decay</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
It’s legitimate to worry about the possible effects of a diet high in sweet fruit on your dental health. To answer this question, we have to first understand the cause of dental decay: a proliferation of certain types of bacteria in the oral environment. As we know, these bacteria will feed on carbohydrates and produce acid by-products, which will eat into the enamel, causing decay.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
In a healthy individual, sweet fresh fruits such as oranges, bananas and peaches will not cause decay because of the fiber and water in the fruit, which will naturally cleanse the teeth. On the other hand, dried fruits and nuts can be a disaster on the teeth because they tend to form a sticky paste that is the perfect breeding ground for bacteria.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
But if someone a history of dental problems (even just one cavity), there can be potential dangers to introducing greater quantities of carbohydrates in the diet.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The solution is obviously to deal with the problem at its root by stopping the proliferation of the bacteria. To know more about this, please consult my eBook “How to Heal and Prevent Dental Disasters,” available <a href="http://www.fredericpatenaude.com/oralhealth" style="border: 0px; color: #2a6572; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">here</a>.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
If you pay attention to some simple dental hygiene rules, the consumption of fresh fruit will not result in dental decay, as long as you avoid dried fruits such as figs and dates or immediately brush your teeth after eating them.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
As for the acidity in fruit and its effects on the enamel, I have a few tips:</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Only eat acid fruits once a day, and not every day. Acidic fruits include oranges, grapefruits, kiwis, and pineapples.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
If you eat more than one fruit meal per day, make one of those meal of fruit with little or no acidity, such as bananas, figs or persimmons.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Rinse your mouth with water after eating acidic fruits.</div>
<h3 style="border: 0px; font-size: 22px; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
7 — Eating only fruits will lead to dangerous deficiencies</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
If you were to eat fruit only, and stay within the guidelines of a low-fat diet, you would not develop any deficiencies as long as you consumed enough to meet your caloric needs. You could maintain this diet for months or years and stay in perfect health during that time.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Fruits don’t contain any vitamin B12 and vitamin D, so you would have to include those as supplements. The body can produce vitamin D through sun exposure, but most people don’t get enough that way — and there are some drawbacks to spending too much time in the sun.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
It is possible that a complete fruitarian diet will lack minerals that are more abundant in vegetables. But very few people follow a pure fruitarian diet. Most will include vegetables, nuts, seeds, and some cooked foods.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">But what about the sugar in fruit?</strong></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The thinking is that because sweet fruit contains simple sugars those sugars should be limited in the same way we should limit refined sugar.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
First of all, most of the diseases that people associate with sugar consumption are caused or exacerbated by a high-fat diet. For example, conditions such as candida, hypoglycemia and diabetes would not occur if on a low-fat diet, even if your diet contained some refined sugar.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Secondly, the natural sugar found in fruit is not exactly comparable to the refined sugar found in a cake. It’s in a form that’s readily digestible, but also comes in a complete package which includes water, fiber, vitamins, minerals, and more.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Finally, you might be wondering “how much fruit sugar is too much?”</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The answer to this question is simple: <em style="border: 0px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">it depends on how many calories you need.</em></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
20 bananas a day might sound like too much for an inactive person — and indeed it is. But to a trained athlete burning 5000 calories a day, 20 bananas only represents 40% of their caloric needs!</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
If you fill up on fruit on top of eating a standard diet, you might be eating “too much fruit” because you are consuming too many calories. The solution to this would not be to cut down on fruit, but rather to eat the fruit first, so you are less hungry and less likely to eat other foods, which are fattening and less healthy.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Another concern is the amount of fructose in fruit.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
In a recent article published in the New York Times entitled “<a href="http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/07/31/making-the-case-for-eating-fruit/" style="border: 0px; color: #2a6572; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Making the Case for Eating Fruit</a>,” some recent research on fruit eating is quoted. From the article:</div>

Dr. David Ludwig, the director of the New Balance Foundation Obesity Prevention Center at Boston Children’s Hospital, said that sugar consumed in fruit is not linked to any adverse health effects, no matter how much you eat. In a recent perspective piece in The Journal of the American Medical Association, he cited observational studies that showed that increased fruit consumption is tied to lower body weight and a lower risk of obesity-associated diseases.</div>

Fiber provides “its greatest benefit when the cell walls that contain it remain intact,” he said. Sugars are effectively sequestered in the fruit’s cells, he explained, and it takes time for the digestive tract to break down those cells. The sugars therefore enter the bloodstream slowly, giving the liver more time to metabolize them. Four apples may contain the same amount of sugar as 24 ounces of soda, but the slow rate of absorption minimizes any surge in blood sugar. Repeated surges in blood sugar make the pancreas work harder and can contribute to insulin resistance, thereby increasing the risk for Type 2 diabetes.</div>

“If we take a nutrient-centric approach, just looking at sugar grams on the label, none of this is evident,” Dr. Ludwig said. “So it really requires a whole foods view.”<br />
Fruit can also help keep us from overeating, Dr. Ludwig said, by making us feel fuller.</div>

Another nutrition expert, Dr. Robert Lustig, a professor of pediatrics at the University of California, San Francisco, who has called sugar “toxic” at high doses and fructose the most “actionable” problem in our diet, is still a fan of fruit. “As far as I’m concerned, fiber is the reason to eat fruit,” since it promotes satiety and the slow release of sugar. He adds a third benefit from fiber: it changes our “intestinal flora,” or microbiome, by helping different species of healthy bacteria thrive.</div>

The Fiber in Fruit</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
I wholeheartedly agree with the conclusions from the NYT article on fruit. Fruit sugar is NOT like white sugar or refined fructose because it is bound with fiber. Not only that, but fresh fruit contains many types of sugar (fructose, sucrose, etc.) and two types of fiber (soluble and insoluble). This combination is the reason why fruit sugar is absorbed slowly and doesn’t cause a “rush of sugar to the brain.” In addition to fiber, fruit contains many micronutrients — vitamins and minerals — but also phytochemicals (plant chemicals that may fight disease).</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Let’s take a look to see how many grams of fiber you get from 100 calories of various foods:</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Mango 3 g<br />
Apple 4.65 g<br />
Pear 5.31 g<br />
Blueberries 4.21 g<br />
Banana 2.95 g<br />
Dates 0.86 g<br />
Grapes 1 g<br />
Watermelon 1.29 g<br />
Oranges 4.49 g<br />
Bread, Whole Wheat 2.74 g<br />
Bread, White 0.90 g<br />
Avocado 4.08 g<br />
Spinach 10.15 g<br />
Chickpeas 3.71 g<br />
Spaghetti 1.13 g<br />
Chicken, Beef, Eggs, and Animal Foods 0 g<br />
Olive oil: 0 g</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Fruit compares favorably with whole grains and beans when it comes to fiber. Although vegetables do contain more fiber per calorie, we also tend to eat smaller amounts (when measured in calories).</div>

The Advantages of Eating a Fruit Based Diet</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
You have to get the bulk of your calories somewhere. Health-minded vegans will fill up on starch, such as potatoes, whole grains, and beans — for those calories.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Low-carbers, such as those going along the lines of a “Paleo” eating pattern will get most of their calories from high-fat foods, such as avocados, olive oil, etc. The lean proteins they consume are not a significant source of calories. Finally, most people eat in a pattern where they get half of their calories from fat and half from carbohydrates (with protein providing only 15% of total calories).</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Viewed in this way, getting most of your calories from fruit is not that controversial. You will still consume other foods that provide a balance of nutrients — but the bulk of your calories will come from fruit.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
This way of eating can provide several advantages.</div>
<ul style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

After a meal of fruit, you will not feel tired and drowsy, as you could with a meal of cooked starches. Your mental clarity will improve.</li>

On a fruit-based diet, your sodium intake for the day will be much lower, reducing your blood pressure and improving your health.</li>

New molecules are produced through Maillard reactions while cooking carbohydrates, and more so animal proteins. These new compounds are not necessarily carcinogenic, but some research suggests that they could be. In any case, on a fruit based diet, you’ll experience less body odor, which could due to the lower concentration of Maillard molecules in the body.</li>

For this reason, many athletes follow this diet.</li>

</ul>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Most people I have known on a fruit based diet are very lean. Some people prone to weight gain can still fail to lose weight or even gain weight on a fruit-based diet, just like they would eating any other meal plan. They will have to exercise more and watch their caloric intake, even from fruits.</div>

The Drawbacks of a Fruit-Based Diet</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The primary problem with this diet is that it’s difficult to follow and requires an enormous level commitment. Social activities may become difficult unless you organize your entire life around the diet. However, those are issues for people trying to follow it 100% and can be solved by not going all the way and include a percentage of cooked foods in your diet. One way some people get around this issue is to eat only fruit until dinner, at which point you could eat other foods.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
In my experience, though, the more fruit you eat, the more sensitive your body becomes to other foods. You can get extremely sick when “cheating” on seemingly harmless foods, as Steve Pavlina found out when eating a streak of 30 days on a fruit-based, all raw diet. But my observation is that this is more a problem if you eat all-raw for weeks at a time. If you follow a program where you regularly eat some cooked foods, you will not experience this reaction. We could explain this bizarre problem by the fact that fruit is so easy to digest that the body “unlearns” to digest other foods.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Dental problems can be an issue for many because of the acidity and sugar in fruit. Those issues can be resolved by keeping acidic fruit intake to a minimum, regularly brushing and flossing, and using fluoride-containing toothpaste and mouthwash.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Finally, a fruit-based diet is more expensive than a starch-based diet. Choosing a cheaper staple, like bananas, can reduce costs.</div>
<h3 style="border: 0px; font-size: 22px; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Living on Fruit Exclusively?</h3>
<div style="border: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
In my years of exploring the raw food diet, I have met a few individuals who have lived on fruit only for years on end. They may consume some green vegetables occasionally, but don’t make a point of doing it, so their vegetable consumption is negligible.</div>
