Swedish researchers may have found a solution to the growing resistance to antibiotics in the most unlikely of places — breastmilk.

Local se A team led by Professor Anders Håkansson at Lund University’s Department of Translational Medicine have identified a protein in human breast milk that seems to make previously resistant bacteria once again vulnerable to antibiotics. Håkansson established that the wonder molecule Hamlet (Human Alpha-lactalbumin Made Lethal to Tumor Cells) could be used against cancer tumors and bacteria when he was still a graduate student twenty years ago. “But what’s more interesting is that Hamlet makes some bacteria more sensitive to antibiotics,” he told Sweden’s TT newswire. “So far it seems that all bacteria can be made sensitive to antibiotics ...

New Psychiatric Diagnosis Targets “Internet Conspiracy Theorists” The Obama administration has a new partner in crime and it is the American Psychiatric Association (APA).  The APA created the new Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (5th Edition) which was recently adopted. DSM 5 is highly controversial and has sparked outrage from the mental health practitioners. As many of these practitioners point out, the new DSM-V makes a pathology out of simple and normal behaviors such as grieving for the loss of a loved one. This constitutes a new subjective approach in diagnosing of mental illness in that it promises to end free speech and any form of political dissent. The ...

Tough Questions About Influenza: Prevention and Treatment

When the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently announced that this season's influenza vaccine was only 23% effective against the current predominant A strain (H3N2),[1] many people were unsurprised. Infectious diseases specialists were already aware that most of the A (H3N2) viruses currently circulating had drifted (mutated antigenically and genetically) from the A component selected for inclusion in the 2014-2015 seasonal vaccine.[2] Furthermore, for many members of the public who had been skeptical about the usefulness of any influenza vaccine, the announcement appeared to confirm their view that there was no benefit to being vaccinated. (The vaccine is even less ...

Science Says Lasting Relationships Come Down To 2 Basic Traits

Science says lasting relationships come down to—you guessed it—kindness and generosity. Every day in June, the most popular wedding month of the year, about 13,000 American couples will say “I do,” committing to a lifelong relationship that will be full of friendship, joy, and love that will carry them forward to their final days on this earth. Except, of course, it doesn’t work out that way for most people. The majority of marriages fail, either ending in divorce and separation or devolving into bitterness and dysfunction. Of all the people who get married, only three in ten remain in healthy, happy marriages, as psychologist Ty Tashiro points out in his book ...

What to drink instead of milk

A lot of my patients drink milk every day to get their share of calcium. And I'll tell you the same thing I tell them… If you're a baby cow, milk is the best stuff on earth. But if you're a human, you'd be much better off without it. You see, every mammal's milk is specifically designed for its young. So unless you want the massive girth and weight of a cow, I don't suggest you drink the milk that's designed to make them that way. Worse yet, the inclusion of growth hormones and antibiotics make cow's milk an even less appealing choice for humans. Milk cows are loaded up with antibiotics that cause the spread of antibiotic-resistant strains of ...

Medscape Nonmyeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) can reduce disability and improve quality of life in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), a new study suggests. The new report focuses on a series of patients treated at a single center and followed for an average of 2.5 years. HSCT is "clinically significantly impacting on our patients lives. All of our patients believe in this treatment; they are our biggest advocates," Richard K. Burt, MD, from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois, noted an interview with Medscape Medical News. "If you look at all the pharmacologic drug therapy, ...

Shift Focus From Salt to Sugar in Cardiovascular Disease: Researchers

Medscape... NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Salt in processed foods may boost the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease, but the role of sugar has been underrated, researchers say. As Dr. James J DiNicolantonio told Reuters Health by email, "A reduction in the intake of added sugars, particularly fructose, and specifically in the quantities and context of industrially manufactured consumables, would help not only curb hypertension rates, but would also help address broader problems related to cardiometabolic disease." Dr. DiNicolantonio of Saint Luke's Mid America Heart Institute in Kansas City, Missouri, and Dr. Sean C Lucan of Montefiore Medical Center in the ...

Why You Should Quit Drinking Diet Soda Tuesday, 20 Jan 2015 04:35 PM By Sylvia Booth Hubbard When diet sodas were first introduced to the general public in the middle of the twentieth century, they seemed like the best new thing in food since sliced bread. The idea was that you could drink sodas without counting calories and worrying about weight gain. According to the University of Texas, 59 percent of Americans drink diet sodas regularly hoping to lose weight. Unfortunately, evidence shows that they do not help you lose weight. In fact, they increase your risk of becoming obese and may even be worse for your health than regular sodas. "Artificial sweeteners are a disaster in ...

Medscape...Introduction On October 28, 2014, new guidelines [1] for the primary prevention of stroke were released by the American Heart Association (AHA)/American Stroke Association (ASA), updating the previous guidelines from 2011. The report points out that "76% of stroke are first events"—emphasizing the importance of primary prevention—and also that in a 6000-person case/control study, "10 potentially modifiable risk factors explained 90% of the risk of stroke." With this in mind, writing group members performed a thorough review of relevant literature, guidelines, personal files, and expert opinion to formulate the new document. What follows is a quick ...

To beet or not to beet? Researchers test theories of beet juice benefits

ScienceDaily... The potential benefits of rich-nitrate beetroot juice rich-nitrate are what prompted David Proctor, professor of kinesiology and physiology at Penn State, to test the ability of the juice to enhance blood flow to exercising muscles. Athletes who down beet juice before exercising to increase blood flow and improve performance may be surprised at the results of a recent study conducted at Penn State's Noll Laboratory. While beetroot juice rich in nitrates did not enhance muscle blood flow or vascular dilation during exercise, researchers found that it did "de-stiffen" blood vessels under resting conditions, potentially easing the workload of the heart.

False Advertising Alert: Food Labeled “No High Fructose Corn Syrup” May Have It Anyway There is a rather deceptive name change going on in the corn industry, and consumers are being kept in the dark. According to the Corn Refiner’s Association, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is sold primarily in 2 different formulations – 42% fructose (HFCS-42 or 55% fructose (HFCS-55) with the remainder made up of higher sugars and glucose. Whereas the very sweet 55% fructose formula is primarily used in carbonate soft drinks, the less sweet HFCS-42 is used in baked goods, fruit flavored beverages and other processed foods that run the gamut from spaghetti sauces to yogurt. Now it ...

Do Statins Stop Cancer? Friday, 16 Jan 2015 12:41 PM By Nick Tate Cholesterol-lowering statins may pull double duty: New research shows they not only help boost heart health, but also appear to be a promising, cost-effective way to reduce the risk of metastases in some cancers. The study, by the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, reveals statins may block cancer cells’ ability to split off from the primary tumor and spread to other parts of the body, Medical Xpress reports. The discovery, published in the journal Scientific Reports, came as a surprise to the researchers and could pave the way for new cancer treatments based on the use of cholesterol-lowering drugs. ...

Fructose causes reproductive problems, earlier death, study shows

Fructose causes reproductive problems, earlier death, study shows Monday, January 19, 2015 by: PF Louis (NaturalNews) When fructose is discussed, it's usually not just about normal natural sugars in fruits like apples, pears and watermelons. It's usually about high-fructose corns syrup (HFCS). It is ubiquitous in processed foods, especially sodas, because it packs more sweetness per gram than sugar and it's cheaper. And no matter how much food processors cover it up by labeling ingredients as "corn syrup," it's still HFCS. You'll get all sorts of disagreements from the corn refiners' industry, but the overwhelming nutritional scientific evidence ...

Heyes (NaturalNews) Two Arizona parents say state Child Protective Services officials have essentially kidnapped seven of their children after one child died mysteriously while in the care of a babysitter friend months ago, though no criminal charges have been filed and no autopsy report has been issued by the medical examiner's office. According to interviews and data provided to Natural News, Jeff and Tabitha Shoars of Avondale, a suburb of Phoenix, have so far been given no explanation as to why CPS officials who removed their children from their ...

The chilling truth about GMOs
Post Date: 2015-01-18 09:37:02 by Tatarewicz
0 Comments
Giant biotech firms like Monsanto consistently take the stance that genetically altered foods are "substantially equivalent" to non-GMO foods. And the FDA doesn't have much to say about it… perhaps because the FDA Food Czar is a former Monsanto executive? They leave it up to the biotech companies to do all the research and decide whether these foods are safe or not. Well, let's be honest about this. GMO foods are not safe, particularly those that come from Monsanto's Roundup-ready crops. These crops are the result of money-making genius. If you're a regular reader, you've heard me tell you about how Monsanto introduced an herbicide called Roundup back ...

Doctors forced to interrogate patients about whether they own guns Friday, January 16, 2015 by: J. D. Heyes (NaturalNews) The Obama Administration is making another play against gun owners, this time by alternately using financial rewards and penalties against doctors. According to reports, physicians who inquire whether or not their patients have loaded guns in their homes will earn extra compensation from Medicare. As reported by PatriotNewsDaily: When Dr. Vivek Murthy was confirmed as the nation's next surgeon general, politicians on both sides of the aisle expressed dismay. This was a guy who had come out forcefully in favor of gun control, having labeled firearms as a ...

The United States Department of Agriculture on Thursday approved Monsanto's controversial herbicide-resistant genetically modified strains of soybean and cotton, in a move that critics say is a bow to the powerful biotechnology industry, at the expense of human and environmental health. The green-light is "simply the latest example of USDA’s allegiance to the biotechnology industry and dependence upon chemical solutions," Food & Water Watch Executive Director Wenonah Hauter declared in a press statement. "This continues the disturbing trend of more herbicide-tolerant crop approvals taking place under President Obama’s watch." Dr. Marcia ...

Seasonal Influenza Vaccine Only 23% Effective This Year
Post Date: 2015-01-16 06:32:02 by Tatarewicz

Medscape... An early analysis of the 2014 to 2015 influenza season notes that two thirds of the circulating influenza A (H3N2) viruses differ from the H3N2 component of the 2014 to 2015 influenza vaccine. The 2014 to 2015 seasonal influenza vaccine is thus estimated to be only 23% effective in preventing medically attended, laboratory-confirmed influenza H3N2 infection in the overall population. Vaccine effectiveness against H3N2 viruses is estimated at just 12% for individuals aged 18 to 49 years. Brendan Flannery, PhD, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia, and colleagues published their analysis in the January 16 issue of the Morbidity and ...
