This undated photo provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows a Lone Star tick. Doctors across the nation are seeing a surge of sudden red-meat allergies in people bitten by the tick.
Doctors across the nation are seeing a surge of sudden meat allergies in people bitten by a certain kind of tick. This bizarre problem was only discovered a few years ago but is growing as the ticks spread from the Southwest and the East to more parts of the United States. In some cases, eating a burger or a steak has landed people in the hospital with severe allergic reactions.

Study Finds an Aspirin a Day Cuts Cancer Rates



Study Finds an Aspirin a Day Cuts Cancer Rates
PLEASE READ THIS TO LEARN THE WHOLE TRUTH.  THE TITLE IS 100 % PURE PROPAGANDA
LONDON (Reuters) -- Taking a small daily dose of aspirin can significantly reduce the risk of developing - or dying from - bowel, stomach and oesophageal cancer, according to a large review of scientific studies.
Researchers who analyzed all available evidence from studies and clinical trials assessing benefits and harm found that taking aspirin for 10 years could cut bowel cancer cases by around 35 percent and deaths from the disease by 40 percent. (The word “could” does not mean it is truth.  Similar to the word “may” and drawing similar conclusions.  Nothing is absolute, but that doesn’t stop the spread of propaganda.  Do Not Fall For It!)
Rates of oesophageal and stomach cancer were cut by 30 percent and deaths from these cancers by 35 to 50 percent.
Professor Jack Cuzick, head of the center for cancer prevention at Queen Mary University of London, said the evidence showed that, to reap the benefits of aspirin, people need to take a daily dose of 75 to 100 milligrams for at least five years and probably up to 10 years between the ages of 50 and 65. (Who paid for this study and how can they come to this conclusion?  What was the sample size?

Death By Medicine

http://www.lef.org

Death by Medicine

By Gary Null, PhD; Carolyn Dean MD, ND; Martin Feldman, MD; Debora Rasio, MD; and Dorothy Smith, PhD

Something is wrong when regulatory agencies pretend that vitamins are dangerous, yet ignore published statistics showing that government-sanctioned medicine is the real hazard.

Until now, Life Extension could cite only isolated statistics to make its case about the dangers of conventional medicine. No one had ever analyzed and combined ALL of the published literature dealing with injuries and deaths caused by government-protected medicine. That has now changed.

A group of researchers meticulously reviewed the statistical evidence and their findings are absolutely shocking.  4 of these researchers have authored a paper titled “Death by Medicine” that presents compelling evidence that today’s system frequently causes more harm than good.

This fully referenced report shows the number of people having in-hospital, adverse reactions to prescribed drugs to be 2.2 million per year. The number of unnecessary antibiotics prescribed annually for viral infections is 20 million per year. The number of unnecessary medical and surgical procedures performed annually is 7.5 million per year. The number of people exposed to unnecessary hospitalization annually is 8.9 million per year.

The most stunning statistic, however, is that the total number of deaths caused by conventional medicine is an astounding 783,936 per year. It is now evident that the American medical system is the leading cause of death and injury in the US. (By contrast, the number of deaths attributable to heart disease in 2001 was 699,697, while the number of deaths attributable to cancer was 553,251.5)

Tiger Woods Still has a Parasite…What will they recommend next?



Tiger Woods Still has a Parasite…What will they recommend next? 
Surgery, Injections, Physical Therapy?  None of that will address his real problem.

I wrote an article this past April about how Tiger Woods has parasites.  The article can be read here   

In light of his withdrawal from his most recent golf tournament this past weekend, I am sorry he is going through what he is.  And it does not surprise me at all that the news is making news and focusing on his withdrawal, his quest for Major Championships and will he or won’t he catch and pass Jack Nicholas.  The newest poll on ESPN is about, “Will Tiger Woods ever win another Major?”  I understand the storyline and it is compelling enough to get people, even myself, to read about his latest withdrawal.  What I still have trouble with is with all the money he makes both on and off the links, why is it no one is offering to truly help him?  I mean "truly help him" and address the true cause of his back condition?  Is it because they do not know about the parasite connection?  Is it because he is "Tiger Woods" and lives a very sheltered life and has a small circle of people he trusts?  Is it because the people closest to him do not know any better and want to protect their gravy train?  I may never know the true answer and I am saddened by the lack of understanding.  It is costing a person their life-long dream.

I’ll be honest.  I am a Tiger Woods fan.  Do I agree with some of the choices he has made in his life?  No, but it is his life, not mine and who am I to pass judgment?  But when he plays golf, I am rooting for him because I am a fan of his golf and what that represents.  Actually, I am a fan of anyone who excels at their chosen field, whether it is sports, business, acting, relationship, etc.  I admire anyone who will devote 100 % of their focus on attaining a goal, even if I do not agree with or understand why they would choose that as a goal.  Human spirit seeks what it is driven to seek.  And we are all that way to one degree or another.  I would like to see Tiger beat Jack.  And I bet Jack would like to see Tiger beat Jack.  Why?  Because it is the human spirit going to the next level.  Records are meant to be broken.  The next generation should always be able to equal and best the previous.  It is what keeps life evolving and surviving.

Will Tiger Woods ever get the true care he needs to remedy his low back condition?  I do not know.  My hope is, for anyone who is a fan, yes.  With the healthcare industry being so focused on expensive treatments and no real solutions, my feelings are he will go without finding a successful solution, will fall short of beating Jack Nicholas’ Golf Majors and the story will be about how he had so much talent and he wasted it with his life choices.  It will not be about approaching health from a different perspective and finding a true solution because of the money to be made treating symptoms and making a living off of doing that.  It is an industry.  And industry must set and live up to industry standards.  And right now the message is "Treat the symptom, make as much money off of treatment and testing as possible and use therapy to treat the symptom only and not the cause.  And as things continue to get worse, then we have expensive surgery to fall back on."  I am just sorry that the people who are in the public eye and can help create the changes we need in the healthcare industry are continuing to be a bi-product of the current system of mask, slash and burn.  

I will still root for Tiger until he stops playing competitive golf and I will always be a fan.   Good luck Tiger!

Chronic Pain: Millions Suffer, Missing Non-Drug Options

Chronic pain: Millions suffer, missing non-drug options

 

Many people with chronic pain are terrified that if they move, they will damage themselves further. But nothing could be further from the truth.

Story Highlights

·         Chronic pain affects 100 million U.S. adults.

·         And it costs the nation upwards of $635 billion a year.

·         Exercise, acupuncture and other non-drug treatments show promise

.         NRCT may be your solution

Though chronic pain is often hidden from the USA's front pages and TV screens, it is actually Americans' biggest health problem. Chronic pain — typically defined as pain lasting more than three to six months — affects 100 million adult Americans, according to a 2011 report from the Institute of Medicine, part of the National Academy of Sciences. In 2010, that was more than 40% of the adult population. It is the leading reason people go to doctors and it costs the nation upwards of $635 billion a year — more than cancer, heart disease and diabetes combined.

Despite the prevalence of chronic pain, many people, including many physicians, are unaware of the growing number of non-narcotic treatments, backed up by considerable research.
