PDR for Nutritional Supplements

Sheldon Saul Hendler and David Rorvik
See book keywords and concepts
Children, pregnant women, nursing mothers, those with renal failure and those with diabetes should absolutely avoid Ge-132 supplements. Also, those taking potentially nephrotoxic drugs should avoid Ge-132. ADVERSE REACTIONS Adverse reactions reported for those taking Ge-132—supposedly 100% pure—include nausea, diarrhea and skin eruptions. Germanium dioxide and germanium lactate citrate are nephrotoxic. Spirogermanium causes neurotoxicity and pulmonary toxicity.

Juice Feasting doesn't replace your supplements; it replaces your unhealthy cooked food with nature's most delicious, drinkable food! You can learn more about how Juice Feasting works by visiting David Rain's website, www.JuiceFeasting.com where you'll find an enormous amount of information about how Juice Feasting works, how to do it, and how to follow the 92-day timeline for a complete Juice Feast. David and I have also recorded a six-CD audio program entitled The Secret of Juice Feasting that you can find at http://www.truthpublishing.com/product_p/cd-cat21485.

Interview with Dr. Hank Liers Part 3: Chemical sensitivities and chlorella detoxification

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

Many chemically sensitive people cannot take any supplements. For my wife, I actually designed a formula called Myo-Mag, which is mainly magnesium malate, but it has the coenzyme B vitamins, and if you look at the Kreb's cycle, she had a functional magnesium deficiency. She was not using magnesium -- even though she had plenty in her blood. Well, magnesium malate has this beautiful property; the malic acid actually kicks the Kreb's cycle into gear. Once you have the Kreb's cycle kicked into gear, then you need the magnesium to make the ATP or to use the ATP. Magnesium malate is wonderful.

In the experiment, one group of yellow, obese, agouti mothers received methyl-group-rich supplements available in health food stores: folic acid, vitamin B12, betaine and choline. Methyl-rich supplements were chosen because a number of studies have shown that the methyl chemical group is involved with epigenetic modifications. When methyl groups attach to a gene's DNA, it changes the binding characteristics of regulatory chromosomal proteins. If the proteins bind too tightly to the gene, the protein sleeve cannot be removed and the gene cannot be read.

Children herded like cattle into Maryland courthouse for forced vaccinations as armed police and attack dogs stand guard

The FDA has already criminalized nutritional supplement companies who dare to tell the truth about the health benefits of their supplements. (Read the true history of armed FDA raids on vitamin companies here: http://www.newstarget.com/021791.html ) Next, parents who refuse to subject their children to the chemical pharmaceuticals proposed by Big Pharma will be criminalized, rounded up and incarcerated for "refusing to comply with public health policy." This is all being done by the State in the name of "protecting the children" from their own natural health parents.

NewsTarget Emerging as Key Gateway Between Health Product Companies and Natural Health Consumers

I know I've recommended products in the past made with that synthetic form of vitamin B-12, but I've learned more since then and I no longer recommend any supplements made with cyanocobalamin. (Get products like Ola Loa instead, at www.DrinkYourVitamins.com ) Who I'm about to recommend By the way, I'm about to make big recommendations for some companies I'm seriously impressed with. These companies are: Dragon Herbs (www.DragonHerbs.com) Incredibly high-quality Chinese Medicine herbs. Check out their eucommia bark tincture. Mushroom Science (www.MushroomScience.com) Wow.
CherryFlex supplements to every NewsTarget reader resulted in many thousands of requests for the product. Due to NewsTarget's rising recognition across the natural health product industry, we are receiving an increasing number of requests to publicize various product offers for other companies. If you work with a health food or nutritional supplement company, this article will tell you exactly how to earn a top recommendation by NewsTarget and The Health Ranger. (Hint: It's all about quality and integrity... see below...

The mothers who got the methyl group supplements produced standard, lean, brown mice, even though their offspring had the same agouti gene as their mothers. The agouti mothers who didn't get the supplements produced yellow pups, which ate much more than the brown pups. The yellow pups wound up weighing almost twice as much as their lean, "pseudo-agouti" counterparts. The University's photo on the previous page is striking. Though the two mice are genetically identical, they are radically different in appearance: one mouse is lean and brown and the other mouse is obese and yellow.

The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest

What promises do supplements, hormone therapies, or genetic intervention offer? What are some of the scientifically proven ways for you to increase your years of healthy life? In the following chapters, we'll take you to the world's confirmed longevity hotspots, the Blue Zones themselves: the Barbagia region of Sardinia in Italy, Okinawa in Japan, the community of Loma Linda in California, and the Nicoya Peninsula in Costa Rica. In each of these places we'll encounter a different culture that has taken its own unique path to longevity.
Soy products that contain phytoestrogens are probably better than hormone supplements, he said. Some researchers speculate that they may impart many of the benefits of estrogen without the cancer dangers. Okinawans eat an average of three ounces of soy products per day. Tofu, their main source of soy, may play a role in reducing the risk of heart disease. Greg Plotnikoff recommended that consumers select fermented soy products over nonfermented soy products whenever possible. "The medical literature demonstrates comparatively much better nutritional content in fermented soy," he said.

The activity of lactase supplements is expressed in acid lactase units or ALU. A regular strength lactase caplet typically contains 4,500 ALU. Lactase derived from Kluyveromyces lactis is used to pretreat milk for use by those with lactose intolerance. The activity of lactase in milk is expressed in neutral lactase units or NLU. The maximum recommended dose of lactase in milk is 3,000 NLU per liter. PANCREATIN Pancreatin is a pancreatic enzyme preparation derived from hog pancreas. Pancreatin is comprised of the pancreatic enzymes trypsin, amylase and lipase.
ADVERSE REACTIONS Those taking squalene supplements may have mild gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea. INTERACTIONS None known. OVERDOSAGE There have been no reports of overdosage. DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Squalene is a liquid that is available in capsules for oral use. Doses of 500 milligrams to 4 grams are used; the higher doses are used by some cancer sufferers. The source of squalene is usually from shark liver oil and sometimes from olive oil.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION There are various forms of spirulina supplements, including capsules, tablets, flakes and powders. Spirulina is also found in some functional foods and in combination "green food" products with barley grass, chlorella and wheat grass. Doses range from 250 mg to 5 grams daily. HOW SUPPLIED Bar — 1000 mg Capsules — 350 mg, 380 mg, 400 mg, 429 mg, 500 mg Powder Tablets — 5250 mg, 00 mg, 750 mg LITERATURE Ayehunie S, Belay A, Baba TW, Ruprecht RM.

Incessant disease mongering turns Americans into profit-generating guinea pigs for Big Pharma (opinion)

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
FDA officials have attacked natural health remedies, outlawed perfectly safe herbs and supplements, and have in fact conspired with drug companies to bury evidence demonstrating the dangers of their FDA-approved pharmaceuticals (among other crimes). It's time we cleaned house at the FDA and prosecuted the criminals currently in charge there. We need a Nuremberg trial for the FDA where the crimes against humanity that have been committed by the agency are made public and accounted for.

Interview with Dr. Hank Liers Part 5: Superior nutrition for pet health

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Liers: We offer, as I mentioned, our red label core supplements, which include our multivitamin formulas. A multivitamin is one of the most important things to take, because there is always going to be something missing in the food. The multi is the best insurance policy I know. We have multivitamins for small pets and large pets. One of the interesting things about designing for animals is they range from 5 pounds up to 200 pounds. You have to be able to have one or two products that supply that entire size range.

The recommended daily dosage of calcium between diet and supplements remains 1,000 mg in women under 50 and 1,200 to 1,500 mg in women over 50. Androgens have had renewed interest as a therapy for osteoporosis. Tibolone, an anabolic steroid, has been used in many years in Europe for treatment of osteoporosis and is being studied in the United States. There is concern about effects on lipids and the endometrium, as well as basic side-effect profiles that present with androgens, such as acne, facial hair growth, and body hair loss.

The quackery of modern medicine (opinion)

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Anyone who promotes good nutrition through supplements, vitamins or herbs is labeled a "quack," and anyone who dares question the sanctity of the cult of pharmacology is discredited, attacked and sometimes even arrested and jailed. (See my documented history of armed FDA raids against alternative doctors and vitamin companies in my book Natural Health Solutions and the Conspiracy to Keep You From Knowing About Them. It's all so hilarious that it makes you wonder how the so-called "quack" police can continue to peddle their pro-drug propaganda with a straight face.

The big vitamin scare: American Medical Association claims vitamins may kill you (opinion)

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
The healthiest people, by far, are those who take supplements, who engage in regular exercise, and who avoid taking prescription drugs. Why conventional medical researchers remain nutritionally illiterate Western medicine still doesn't "get" nutrition. They think all health effects are achieved by single, isolated chemical constituents. But nutrition doesn't work that way. In nature, for example, Vitamin C is not a single chemical, but rather a symphony of complementary phytonutrients that work in concert.
I sell no supplements, I earn no money from supplement companies, and in fact I am not even paid by NewsTarget for my work on these articles. In terms of potential conflicts of interest, I have far more credibility than the AMA, a shady organization that remains mired in blatant conflicts of interest and a frightening agenda of pushing drugs, surgery and radiation onto as many Americans as possible. Now, here's a common sense way to quickly realize the JAMA research is complete nonsense.
Vitamin A supplements. In other words, it might not even be one additional person out of 100, or even out of 1000. And yet, it is curious that when conventional medical researchers report the results of mortality risks for their prescription drugs, they always use absolute risk. They say things like, "Well, this drug only increased the risk by one percent." But what they are not saying is that it may be a 200% relative increase in mortality risk, depending on the baseline absolute mortality numbers. So if only 0.
How to fake a vitamin study Faking a vitamin study to show supplements as harmful is extremely easy to pull off, by the way. All you have to do is use synthetic forms of the vitamins and avoid using natural, food-sourced vitamins. These synthetic vitamins – which are really just industrial chemicals – may be called "Vitamin E" or "Vitamin A" or even "Vitamin C" but they have no functional resemblance to the real vitamins that occur in nature.

The Liver and Gallbladder Miracle Cleanse: An All-Natural, At-Home Flush to Purify and Rejuvenate Your Body

Andreas Moritz

Most bile supplements contain ox bile. Without a gallbladder, you may never again obtain the right amount of bile needed for the proper digestion of food. If you develop symptoms of diarrhea, lower the dosage or discontinue it. Consult with your health practitioner about which product may be the most suitable for you. People Who Should Not Use Apple Juice Some people may have difficulty drinking apple juice in the large quantities required for the liver cleanse. These include those who suffer from diabetes, hypoglycemia, and yeast infection (Candida), cancer, and stomach ulcers.
It is best to avoid any supplements or medicines during the liver cleanse, unless they are essential. Besides, they are wasted as they are flushed out with the bile and Epsom salts. In addition, medicinal drugs and substances, such as sleeping pills, have a suppressive effect that can render the cleanse ineffective. Q. I have done eight livers cleanses so far and I feel great. Almost all of my symptoms, including stomach ulcers, sinusitis, and headaches, are gone without a trace. Altogether, I must have released about 2,500 stones.

Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, author of "Pain Free 1-2-3," discusses natural pain management, without dangerous drugs

The Energy Revitalization made by Enzymatic Therapy is one drink and one capsule -- and it replaces over 35 tablets of supplements a day -- and it actually tastes good. Mike: Wow. Teitelbaum: The other thing I'd recommend people get is something called ribose or CORvalen. We just finished a study on this. It's a special sugar that makes energy in DNA -- and in this study, two-thirds of patients with fibromyalgia -- just with that single sugar -- had an average 44 percent increase in energy. Take this and take your ribose or CORvalen and it will have a dramatic effect on well-being.

Take the following supplements: Combination herbal product: 1-2 capsules daily Cranberry extract: 400 mg twice daily Cranberry juice: 8-16 oz daily Oral probiotics: 8-16 billion organisms per day Mannose: V2-I tsp daily; more if needed Intravaginal estriol (1 mg/g): insert 1 g twice daily for 2 weeks, then twice weekly as maintenance dose; or estriol suppositories (1 mg): insert 1 daily for 2 weeks, then twice weekly as maintenance dose • Consider oral hormone therapy.
Linoleic and linolenic acids cannot be made by the body and must be supplied daily in the diet from either food or supplements. The typical American diet is often much higher in omega-6 oils than it is in omega-3 oils. As a result, many of us end up with the PgE2 prostaglandins that cause muscle contractions and pain. Another problem is that our bodies need a certain amount of linoleic acid to convert to gamma linolenic acid (GLA), which leads to the production of the PgEl prostaglandins (the antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory prostaglandins).
It is now also popular to ingest Lactobacillus acidophilus supplements in oral form in place of or in addition to eating yogurt or to apply lactobacilli directly into the vagina. A number of studies have supported the use of lactobacillus in preventing and treating vaginitis. A recently published study on treating BV found that both vaginal administration and oral-plus-vaginal administration of lactobacilli were effective at reducing the vaginal pH, treating the current infection, and preventing recurrence over the subsequent three months.

Participants were instructed to avoid taking all medications, vitamins, or supplements on the day of the study until they had completed the study. No food was permitted and only water was allowed for consumption until completion of the study. Each participant provided a predose morning urine collection (second void of the morning). Then subjects orally dissolved their assigned testing lozenge (placebo or active). Participants drank only water and ate no food until they completed their final postdose urine collection between one to two hours after taking their lozenge.

When these measures are not effective or when the symptoms are severe, a licensed naturopathic physician can readily utilize natural progesterone therapy, more aggressive dosing of nurritional and botanical supplements, or selected nutrients that specifically and more assertively target serotonin and other neurotransmitters and neurophysiology. Few conventional medical doctors are trained in these therapies, although increasing numbers are integrating them into their practice.
