Diet Pill Supplement Scam: Two-Thirds of Hoodia Gordonii Pills Sold In the United States Are Counterfeit

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
For reasons that will be explained below, the brand names of those failing supplements are not being listed here, but Truth Publishing can confirm that those products are popular, brand-name products found on the internet and on health food store shelves everywhere. Failure of this test does NOT necessarily indicate that the manufacturer is aware of the non-authentic nature of their hoodia gordonii raw materials (raw powder). Truth Publishing is aware of many cases where hoodia brokers are using dishonest tactics to fool U.S.

Antibacterial silver products finally begin to emerge after years of FDA oppression

That's the way you're going to have a healthier life long term, not by having infections and then finding new, clever supplements to make them go away. Not for daily use So in my book, this silver solution belongs in the category of emergency first aid products. It is not something that I would use on a day-to-day basis; it is nothing that I would regularly use to eliminate infections. But it is something that I would certainly want to have on hand in case there was serious sickness, a really persistent cold or flu, or something came around like the bird flu.

Natural breakthrough for blood sugar control: Glucotor supplement clinically proven to reduce blood sugar as well as diabetes drugs, without the side effects

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Keep in mind that you should always work with your health practitioner before taking any supplements, including this one. Ideally, you see a naturopath instead of an M.D. Also, you'll hopefully be making positive changes to your diet (eliminating processed foods, refined grains and all dietary sugars) and exercise habits. Those positive changes will further accelerate your progress on Glucotor, but it's worth noting that the remarkable blood sugar improvements experienced by trial participants here did not alter their diet in any way.

Health is a result of action, not luck: Principles for achieving optimum health

They allow health to unfold in a natural way, as it will automatically reflect the lifestyle decisions (food, supplements and exercise, primarily). If I'm consuming a diet rich in fruits and vegetables and nuts, without any food toxins whatsoever, and if I'm getting regular exercise, sunshine, and lots of water and fresh air, and I'm living in a low-stress environment without any toxic chemicals in my house, then I don't need to think about the health goals. They will unfold naturally and automatically.

Gunpoint medicine: Why conventional medicine must use intimidation to control patients (opinion)

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Have no illusions: The evildoers who run medicine today are working diligently to create a system of medicine where vitamin companies are shut down, herbal doctors are imprisoned, naturopathic doctors are denied the right to practice medicine, and the truth about the healing powers of vitamins, minerals, herbs, supplements and even ordinary foods is routinely censored. These devious miscreants want to create a world where you can choose any system of medicine you want, as long as it's their system.

Interview with Randall Fitzgerald, author of The Hundred-Year Lie, on the prevalence of toxic chemicals

It involved exercise, and it involved taking some supplements, the primary one being chlorella. At the end of three weeks, I had my blood tested again, at the same laboratory in Dallas, and it was found that the synthetic chemicals that I had focused on eliminating from my body, especially the pesticides, had almost been totally eliminated. So I know it is not a hopeless, helpless, situation for readers of the book.

What's In Your Milk?: An Exposé of Industry and Government Cover-Up on the Dangers of the Genetically Engineered (rBGH) Milk You're Drinking

Samuel S. Epstein, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts
Piecing together industry and industry-funded research from obscure supplements of the Journal of Dairy Sciences, he discovered that cows injected with rBGH had a high incidence of mastitis and a wide range of other veterinary diseases. There was also significant abnormalities in the composition of their milk. Most importantly, evidence showed a major increase in the levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1).

Healing foods, herbs and nutrients reference sites to be launched; Update from Truth Publishing

So you can click around and explore all the healing properties of foods, herbs, nutrients and supplements, or you can look up a particular health condition (like "depression") and see what's good for that. The research is based on thirteen books by authors like Michael T. Murray, Gary Null and Michael Tierra. We are adding more research citations right now and hope to expand the base to 25 books within a few months. Thank you for your suggestions and your support! Without your suggestions, we would never know which features and sites to develop first.
We're working on several major stories and books, including a critical look at one of the largest cancer non-profit organizations, breakthrough supplements for appetite control (a new one has just been discovered, and it works far better than hoodia ever did), and natural health solutions that really do prevent and even help treat degenerative disease. Consider some of the astonishing things we've learned just this year: Type-2 diabetes can be completely cured in 3 weeks. Hydrogenated oils promote belly fat and are poison for the cardiovascular system.

Interview with Jon Barron of Baseline Nutritionals on herbal healing, the bird flu and alternative health

Mike: There are all sorts of clever ways people can do studies to discredit herbs or supplements. They can use synthetic vitamin E, they can disqualify anyone who is healthy, or they can do tests on people who are about to die. These are all things that have happened. Barron: Yes. Many things are done to discredit alternative health. There's one other big thing that I think is worth mentioning. Invariably, alternative health works best when people do it as part of a protocol. Rarely are people told to just take one herb, like echinacea.

Natural breakthrough for blood sugar control: Glucotor supplement clinically proven to reduce blood sugar as well as diabetes drugs, without the side effects

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Study Subjects Fifty subjects 18 and over with various beginning wellness levels, exercise levels, and health levels were first tested with clean bodies (they consumed no prescription drugs, no supplements, and no special diets for 1 week prior to this first intake). For each subject: Beginning Glucometer blood sugar readings were at least 45 points away from the average recommended range for normal healthy adults. Beginning blood sugar balance level was in the red zone meaning that it was at least 35% out of balance according to the Optimal Wellness Test.

Over-the-counter vitamin D tester would be a boon to public health, cancer prevention

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
More and more doctors are becoming aware of the benefits of vitamin D, and they would gladly recommend patients test their own vitamin D levels at home so they could increase their consumption of healthy fish oils or vitamin D supplements, or boost their sensible exposure to sunlight so that they could be healthier individuals. I think a low-cost vitamin D sensor represents one of the most desperately-needed technologies for enhancing public health and preventing disease in a way that would make much of today's expensive cancer treatments utterly obsolete.

Natural medicine may hold solution for bird flu pandemic

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

Instead, work with a naturopath, because the naturopath is going to work holistically with the foods, the supplements, the herbs and the products that you are using. He or she may, in fact, recommend things that are not even in this book. Your immune system is the ultimate solution Besides, whether or not you visit a doctor, it's still up to your immune system to conquer the flu. In the end, your doctor can't take over your immune system via remote control.
It's going to make it more difficult to assimilate the nutrients you need from whole food concentrates and medicinal herb supplements. Taking antibiotics could give you diarrhea. They could also give you indigestion. They're basically going to worsen your health and probably force a situation where it takes you far longer to recover from the flu. So, I do not recommend taking antibiotics for any viral infection, and certainly not for any potential bird flu virus.

Interview with Corinna Benoit of Nordic Naturals on all-natural cod liver oil

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
I know people who have taken fish supplements and have burped up a fishy taste and never wanted to touch it again. That doesn't happen with our product, largely because the oil is so fresh and secondly, because of our unique flavoring process, which allows us to flavor the capsule itself and the oil inside. So if someone does burp up anything, they do not taste fish. Typically, a reason why someone would burp is that they either don't have enough of the enzymes to break it down, or the product has gone rancid. Freshness really matters. Mike: I've heard that complaint from readers before.
Mike: You have a line of cod liver products and supplements for adults and children. Can you give us a brief description of your product line and what's unique about your products? Benoit: Specific to the cod liver products, let me start with what our source is. Nordic Naturals is the manufacturer of the highest quality cod liver product on the market. What is really unique about the product is that we are the source, essentially. We have contracts with fishermen, we run the extraction on the cod liver oil, and we provide and produce the purest and the freshest available.

Several forms of active B[2 work as coenzymes in the body: adeno-sylcobalamin, methylcobalamin, cyancobalamin (found in supplements and fortified foods because it is the most stable form of B12), and hydrox-ocobalamin. There are many natural Bu analogues in food, but they do not work as active coenzymes in the body and may actually block the active B[2 coenzyme function. Understanding B12 absorption pathways in humans gives additional weight to the B,2 issue.

You seem to have a lot of tinctures and supplements. Is that your revenue model? Barron: Yes. I try to keep them as separate as possible. At the foundation, jonbarron.org, there are just a couple of references to Baseline Nutritionals to cut down on the questions. What would happen was everyone was asking, "Where can we buy the tings you talk about?" In general, the foundation is not product-oriented. It's purely information. Baseline Nutritionals sells the products. I do consult and I produce private label brands for companies. That's where I do make money. You're right; it is an issue.

Lack of basic nutrition creates generation of criminals; prison system society

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

In fact, it's one of the least expensive supplements you can get. But in our country we still have widespread chronic deficiencies. And as we're seeing in studies like this, our zinc deficiency is leading to – let's say it bluntly – criminals. Why do we have so many criminals in this country? Because so many of them are raised with nutritional imbalances which then distort their mental function, their mood, their response to stress and their ability to be successful in modern society. At least those are major contributing factors.

When large amounts of Bn are taken in from supplements, it can overcome IF defects, and be absorbed by passive diffusion. It can also be absorbed sublingually (under the tongue) at higher rates than passive diffusion in the ileum. The average non-vegetarian stores between 2,000 and 3,000 micrograms (abbreviated meg) of B!2 and loses about 3 meg per day. About 60 percent of the total amount of the Bi2 in the body is stored in the liver, and 30 percent is stored in the muscle.1 The body has a special circulation pattern between the digestive tract and the liver. Through the bile, we secrete 1.

There was a pro ballplayer, I think a pitcher on the Baltimore Orioles, who had been on supplements that contained ephedrine, which is very similar to the amphetamines. My feeling is that steroid use and amphetamine use is very, very common in athletes at the high school level and up. I think every one of those deaths is conceivably related to psychiatric drugs, most of which have startling coronary cardiac heart consequences. Not just amphetamines, but all of these so-called antipsychotics, which are horrible poisons the pharmaceutical industry is hoisting upon the population.

Interview: Dr. Christine Horner discusses choices women can make to prevent breast cancer

Some of them are specific foods that you can consume like spices, herbs and supplements that have tremendous effect at either slowing down the growth of breast cancer or preventing it in the first place. This is actually good for people who have breast cancer and are undergoing treatment. Turmeric, which is a bright yellow orange colored spice, is another helpful herb. It's a cousin of ginger and is found in curry. It has tremendous anticancer properties to it, and you can add one-quarter of a tablespoon at the end of cooking to almost any food.
We were able to actually get seven different supplements into one pill. It gives a very broad spectrum of action. It contains turmeric, the anticancer spice I spoke about. Turmeric is something that has these tremendous properties in it that help to combat environmental estrogens on many different levels. When I go through the list of all the different things that stimulate the growth of breast cancer, the one thing you can't do anything about are these environmental estrogens. They come in the form of pesticides, herbicides and a couple of different chemicals.
It's foods, supplements, herbs, activities and so forth that have tremendous effect either increasing the risk or protecting against it. Mike:You talk about not only what people can do to prevent the progression of breast cancer, but how they can prevent it altogether. What are some of those things that people should be avoiding that will protect their health? Horner:Not surprisingly, the American diet and lifestyle is a recipe for breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer and heart disease. We know that because it's so prevalent.

While there are, indeed, natural supplements that can aid in your weight loss efforts, putting your full faith in any single weight loss pill -- whether it's a drug, an herb or a succulent -- is likely to result in disappointment.

Nutrition and Vision Project (NVP). However, these results were insignificant after adjustment for other nutrients. The authors state that due to study limitations, an inverse relationship between lutein/zeaxanthin intake and nuclear lens opacities cannot be ruled out with certainty (Jacques et al 2001). In a prospective cohort study of male healthcare professionals aged 45 to 75 years (n=36,664), men consuming the highest amounts of lutein and zeaxanthin had a 19% reduction in cataract development risk requiring extraction compared with men who had the lowest consumption.

Internet. Do they work? I have no idea.) Sesame lignans also help reduce cholesterol. In a study published in the Journal of Lipid Research, sesamin lowered both serum (blood) and liver cholesterol levels. The researchers suggested that sesamin deserves further study as a "possible hypocholesterolemic agent of natural origin." In a recent study in the Journal of Nutrition, 50 g of Sesame Seeds Can Help Burn Fat The point is, these plant chemicals of the lignan family are very good for you indeed.

Supplement with nutrients that enhance mental acuity, intelligence and presence of mind (I highly recommend supplements from the Life Extension Foundation at www.LEF.org). Practice a little yoga, Tai-Chi or Pilates. Train your body and your mind to be healthy and alert. These are the things that make you a participant in life, rather than a spectator. These are a few of the things that ultimately help set you free. Stay alert, because you won't want to miss what's coming.

When vegans took B12 supplements, there was no significant difference between the vegan and non-vegetarian Bi2 levels.4647 This is also true with elderly, Bi2-supplemented lacto-ovo vegetarians versus non-vegetarians.4849 Many non-vegetarians also have a poor Bu status because there are many other factors that can cause Bi2 deficiency.
