Fabricated compassion: Democrats abandon U.S. homeless, veterans and the hungry in rush to roll out red carpet for illegals Wednesday, July 16, 2014 by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger (NaturalNews) "We are all connected. We can't just build a wall or a fence and say no more. This is America. Our doors are open." These are the words of U.S. House of Representatives John Lewis, (1) one of many democrats who seem to be stampeding over each other to see who can offer the most enticements to accelerate the flood of illegal aliens sweeping across America's border. Those enticements include not just free housing, free health care, free food and free legal representation, they ...

What Is Deep Vein Thrombosis? Deep vein thrombosis refers to a blood clot that develops inside a larger vein -- usually deep within the lower leg or thigh. DVT strikes about half a million Americans every year and causes up to 100,000 deaths. The danger is that part of the clot can break off and travel through the bloodstream, where it can lodge in the lungs causing a blockage in blood flow, organ damage, and death. Symptoms of Deep Vein Thrombosis Unfortunately, DVT often goes unnoticed. About half of people with DVT have no warning signs. Symptoms may include: Redness Swelling Tenderness or pain These happen in the area of the blood clot, which is usually the leg (notice the ...

Heart disease and stroke are the leading causes of death and disability among people with Type 2 diabetes. In fact, at least 65 percent of people with diabetes die from some form of heart disease or stroke, according to the American Heart Association. However, a new study by researchers at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center suggests that the use of cholesterol-lowering statins may help prolong the lives of people with diabetic cardiovascular disease. The study is published in the current online edition of Diabetes Care. “Although our study was not a clinical trial, it did show that people with diabetes and heart disease can still live quite a few years by taking statins,” ...

Acupuncture is an effective treatment for women who are experiencing natural menopause. A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials indicates that acupuncture reduces hot flash frequency and severity and improves quality of life (QoL) in the vasomotor domain. The beneficial effects of acupuncture on hot flashes persists for as long as 3 months. "In clinical settings, acupuncture should be considered as an adjunct treatment for reducing menopause-related symptoms, particularly hot flashes, in addition to HT and other pharmacologic therapies," write Hsiao-Yean Chiu, RN, PhD, from the College of Nursing, Taipei Medical University in Taiwan, and colleagues in an article published ...

WASHINGTON, July 16 (Xinhua) -- Scientists said Wednesday they have used a minimally invasive gene transplant procedure to create "biological pacemakers" that could keep the injured pig heart beating normally. If proven to work in humans, the technique could one day replace pacemakers, electronic devices that work by sending electrical pulses to the heart if it is beating too slowly or if it misses a beat, according to a paper published in the U.S. journal Science Translational Medicine. "We have been able for the first time to create a biological pacemaker using minimally invasive methods and to show that the new pacemaker suffices to support the demands of daily ...

THURSDAY, June 5, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Watercress, Chinese cabbage, chard and beet greens are among the most nutrient-dense "powerhouse" vegetables, packing a huge dose of vitamins and minerals into every calorie, a new study reports. At the same time, don't expect to receive huge amounts of nutrition from raspberries, tangerines, garlic or onions, the findings suggest. National nutrition guidelines emphasize consumption of powerhouse fruits and vegetables, which are strongly associated with reduced risk of chronic disease. But until now, the study author noted, nutritional value of veggies hasn't been ranked in a way that would show which best qualify as ...

WebMD Starchy Veggies Some vegetables are better than others when you're watching your triglycerides. Limit how much you eat of those that are starchy, like corn and peas. That way, your body won't turn the extra starch into triglycerides. There are plenty of other options, like cauliflower, kale, and mushrooms, to choose from. Baked Beans With Sugar or Pork Added Beans have fiber and other nutrients going for them. But if they're made with sugar or pork, they may not be the best choice. The label on the can should say what's in there, and how much sugar and fat you're getting. Switch to black beans, which are a great source of fiber and protein, without saturated ...

Whole Foods cannot be trusted. Two months after I brought them laboratory proof that products they were selling to the public were contaminated with toxic heavy metals, they've done nothing about it. Every day, customers buy contaminated products from Whole Foods, oblivious to the fact that they are eating alarming concentrations of cadmium, lead and tungsten. That's why today I'm calling for a class action lawsuit against Whole Foods to force them to stop their unethical business practices: www.naturalnews.com/04599...metals_contamination.html Poster Comment:Whole Foods is a large chain of grocery stores.

Scientists draw on ancient history lessons to develop new cancer theory

CANBERRA, July 14 (Xinhua) -- A new theory of how cancer works which involves looking at the genome sequences from fish, corals and sponges could lead to the next generation of treatments of the disease. The "atavistic" theory suggests that cancer forms when recently evolved genes are damaged, and cells have to revert to using older, inappropriate genetic pathways. Astrobiologist Dr Charley Lineweaver from the Australian National University explained to Xinhua that the theory has its basis in genetic throwbacks such as extra nipples, or webbed fingers and toes, on human beings. These oddities occur when the pathway to more recently acquired genes, the "normal" two ...
Complex heart imaging tests may up children's lifetime cancer risk: study

WASHINGTON, June 9 (Xinhua) -- Children undergoing complex imaging tests like computed tomography (CT) scans for heart problems may have higher cancer risks over their lifetime, according to a study released Monday by the American Heart Association journal Circulation. These tests, also including cardiac catheterization procedures using video X-rays called fluoroscopies, may expose children to higher doses of radiation than standard X-rays do, researchers at Duke University Medical Center said. Radiation from standard X-rays, however, is relatively low and doesn't significantly raise lifetime cancer risks for most young children, they said. "There are definitely times when ...

ScienceAlert...Diagnosing type 1 diabetes has never been easier thanks to a new device that, when approved, could have a production cost of US$20. Image: Norbert von der Groeben/Stanford UniversityType 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the pancreas. As a result, this organ stops making insulin, a hormone that processes sugar. Diagnosing type 1 diabetes is expensive and time-consuming because doctors need to identify specific protein markers in the blood—and getting the results sometimes takes weeks, which may delay the treatment. But researchers at Stanford University in the US have used nanotechnology to create a microchip that diagnoses type 1 ...

Brown bread is always whole grain. False Molasses or other things can give bread a brown color. Read the ingredient list. The word "whole" should always appear before the name of the grain, such as whole wheat, whole oats, or whole rye. And it should be the first thing on the ingredient list. Don't be misled by labels that say "multi-grain," "stone-ground," "100% wheat," "cracked wheat," or "seven-grain." These usually aren't whole grain. Which place is better to keep bread fresh for a few days? Putting bread in the fridge will actually make it go stale quicker. Bread from the grocery store will stay fresh for 2 to 4 ...

How is eating ice cream like being addicted to a drug? : The more you eat, the less pleasure you get Over time, addicts build up a tolerance to drugs. Taking more doesn’t give them as much pleasure as their initial highs. One study showed the same may be true with ice cream. Scientists looked at one group of teens who regularly ate ice cream and another group who didn’t. The ice cream-eaters seemed to be de-sensitized to the milkshakes -- that is, the reward centers in their brains were less active than those of the group that ate ice cream less often. Which has the most calories? : A large vanilla shake A milkshake may be a tasty treat but you definitely shouldn’t have ...

Hey it's Joel and I'm just getting back from a quick grocery store run to grab some food for good ol' din-din tonight. While there I stopped in the salad dressing aisle, not for salad dressing, but for an italian seasoning packet that we mix with extra virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar. Makes for a perfect, tasty, all natural salad dressing with wholesome ingredients, much unlike the typical salad dressings that line grocery store shelves. You see, we NEVER buy bottled dressings. Ever. They're horrible for you, and for the most part the "all natural" versions are as well. Here are just some of the reasons why: 1. Pick up any salad dressing bottle and ...

ScienceDaily... Food not only nourishes the body but also affects its internal biological clock, which regulates the daily rhythm of many aspects of human behavior and biology. Researchers reporting in the Cell Press journal Cell Reports provide new insights into how adjusting the clock through dietary manipulation may help patients with various conditions and show that insulin may be involved in resetting the clock. An internal biological or 'circadian' clock plays an important role in preferred sleep times, times of peak alertness, and the timing of certain physiological processes. The clock enables maximum expression of genes at appropriate times of the day, allowing organisms ...
Vasectomy Linked to Higher Risk for Lethal Prostate Cancer

Medscape...A large cohort study has found that vasectomy is associated with a modest increase in the incidence of high-grade and lethal prostate cancer. However, vasectomy does not appear to be associated with a risk for low-grade or localized disease, according to a study published online July 7 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. "The cumulative incidence of lethal prostate cancer during a 24-year follow-up was 1.6%; thus, these relative risks translate to small increases in absolute risk," conclude the researchers, led by Lorelei Mucci, MPH, ScD, associate professor of epidemiology at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston. They note that previous studies have had ...

By ABC News I'm a cardiac surgeon. I'm lots of other things, of course-a husband, father, and Little League coach-but I've spent the 30 years since high school graduation essentially working toward one goal, to become the best cardiac surgeon I can be. Cardiac surgery appealed to me because it was a chance to make a real, measurable impact on the lives of people every single day, helping people out of literally life-threatening situations. As much as I enjoy this, it is the impact that these operations have on their extended families that is most gratifying. I am reminded of the importance of human life every day when I walk into the family waiting room after performing ...
Suffering in the Service of Official Lies: The Agony of Alexis Carey

Alexis Carey suffers from Dravet Syndrome, a form of epilepsy that has left the nine-year-old unable to speak or use the bathroom. She is subject to violent seizures that can last an hour or longer. No relief is provided by any of the FDA-approved medications available. When Alexis succumbs to a seizure – she sometimes endures sixty episodes a month – her parents, Michael and Clare, can do little more than act as witnesses to their daughter’s agony. Dravet-induced seizures can cause permanent brain damage, and many children thus afflicted don’t reach adulthood. If the Careys lived in Utah, Alexis would have access to cannabidiol (CBD), an orally administered oil ...

scienceDaily... As daily temperatures increase, so does the number of patients seeking treatment for kidney stones. In a study that may both reflect and foretell a warming planet's impact on human health, a research team found a link between hot days and kidney stones in 60,000 patients in several U.S. cities with varying climates. "We found that as daily temperatures rise, there is a rapid increase in the probability of patients presenting over the next 20 days with kidney stones," said study leader Gregory E. Tasian, M.D., M.Sc., M.S.C.E., a pediatric urologist and epidemiologist at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), who is on the staff of the ...
