One of my very charming suppliers who is very much on the same page with regards to what she lets pass her lips said, “Making my way through this book at the moment, think everyone on the planet should read it, fact based and so much data analysed, great source material.”

What I found interesting in this article was not only the extremely high corelationship between the herpes virus and Alzheimer’s disease but also the fact that it was not a complete cause. It did not explain or solve all cases. I have learned that as a researcher one must always look to the outliers to discover the solution(s) for all instances. For only when one can identify the cause for each instance can one have confidence and certainty the we have the whole answer.
The biggest flaw of modern cancer treatment has to do with safety. The methods used to eradicate cancer cells are notable for being unsafe for the patient as well. Chemotherapy, the most popular cure for cancer, involves pumping toxic chemicals into the body. These toxins kill indiscriminately, poisoning cancerous and healthy cells alike. Patients going through chemo bear the brunt of not just their disease, but also the treatment’s side effects, which include fatigue, hair loss, impaired immunity, organ damage, sexual dysfunction, and even more pain, among others.
The study was comprehensive in that it did not look at just one or two medicinal plants, but 31 in total. The researchers wanted to determine which plants had the most potent cytotoxic activity on rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cancer cell lines. To determine this, they used an MTT assay and a brine shrimp lethality assay (BSLA), a test that determines the toxicity of a substance based on how effectively it kills brine shrimps.
Rhabdomyosarcoma is a type of cancer that affects the soft tissue and is known to affect people below 20 years old. It rarely occurs in the U.S. (about five cases per million children in a year), but in the researchers’ home country, it is one of the leading cause of death among children.
The researchers discovered that among the extracts tested, those of Macaranga barteri and Calliandra portoricensis had the most significant cytotoxic activity on both the RD cell line and the brine shrimps. When examined further, they found that the dichloromethane fraction of M. barteri and the ethyl acetate fraction of C. portoricensis were more effective than cyclophosphamide, a chemotherapy drug, by up to six and four times respectively.
Furthermore, both extracts exhibited a high selectivity index, which means that unlike normal chemo drugs, they acted against cancer cells while sparing healthy cells.
The researchers noted that while 11 plants showed cytotoxic activity in their research, only those two exceeded the effects of cyclophosphamide as a cancer cell killer.
In March 2018, a three-part documentary called “Sacrificial Virgins” was honored with two awards at Brisbane, Australia’s Watchdog Film Festival – one for the being the festival’s best film and the other in recognition of its investigation “in search of truth and justice.” In short, writer, director and filmmaker Joan Shenton released this documentary in order to shed much-needed light on the growing global concerns around popular HPV vaccines’ safety: Gardasil and Cervarix.

Restaurants are getting dinged by the convenience of Netflix, the advent of pre-made meals, the spread of online grocery delivery, plus crushing student debt and a focus on healthy eating. Eighty-two percent of American meals are prepared at home — more than were cooked 10 years ago, according to researcher NPD Group Inc. The latest peak in restaurant-going was in 2000, when the average American dined out 216 times a year. That figure fell to 185 for the year ended in February, NPD said.
I received this email about a topic that is of great importance to any woman who has taken a hormonal birth control pill.
I just didn’t know this affected so many women. Or that so many of the women I love might be at risk.
In a recent conversation with my friend Dr. Jolene Brighten, I learned that every woman who has used hormonal birth control is at risk for Post-Birth Control Syndrome.
PBCS is defined by Dr. Brighten as ”the collection of disruptive symptoms women face once they’ve concluded the use of hormonal birth control.”
Women may struggle with any of the following since starting or getting off birth control:
Headaches
Hair loss
Libido loss
Mood swings
Insomnia
Depression
Anxiety
Chronic yeast infections
Chronic UTIs
Cystic acne, outbreaks, and rashes
Irregular or nonexistent periods
Painful or heavy periods
And the most heartbreaking part? PBCS can make it impossible to have children on your own once you’ve stopped birth control. Know anyone struggling to conceive? This could be why.
To help women everywhere, Dr. Brighten is hosting Post-Birth Control Syndrome Awareness Week November 5-11, 2018.
During this special week, you can take online classes (without paying anything) to learn more about PBCS, how to heal it and how to avoid it.
Because this is so critically important and because over 90% of women will take birth control at some point in their life, I’m going to ask you to do something I rarely do: share this.
Together we can put an end to the silent suffering women face and we can let women everywhere know that it’s not “all in her head.”

October is national Breast Cancer Awareness Month in the U.S. National Mammography Day is October 19. Vitamin D optimization could potentially eliminate a vast majority of breast cancers, yet this key information is completely ignored by conventional breast cancer awareness campaigns
Most cancers occur in people with a vitamin D blood level between 10 and 40 ng/mL, and the optimal level for cancer protection has been identified as being between 60 and 80 ng/mL
Research shows having a vitamin D blood level above 60 ng/mL lowers your risk of breast cancer by more than 80 percent, compared to having a level below 20 ng/mL
Recent research shows postmenopausal women who receive a diagnosis of breast cancer are more likely to have low vitamin D and be overweight than women who receive a negative diagnosis
This year, do your breast health a real favor and get your vitamin D level checked. One of the easiest and most cost-effective ways of doing this is to enroll in the D*Action Breast Cancer Prevention project, which now includes both vitamin D and omega-3 testing
The Morning Call of Lehigh Valley Pennsylvania is now reporting that one nurse’s aide has been awarded $11.6 million for being paralyzed with GBS after receiving a flu shot. This is newsworthy, because pharmaceutical companies cannot be sued in civil court for damages due to vaccines. Congress gave them total immunity to such lawsuits in 1986 and that law was upheld by the pro-Pharma Supreme Court in 2011. Sales of vaccines include a tax that is paid to fund a special court where government attorneys fight for the U.S. government to prevent paying out damages due to vaccines. It is a long and difficult process, so settled cases represent only a tiny fraction of the amount of vaccine damaged people in our society.
