The time, it is forever changing

Kedar N. Prasad, PhD
This time the change may be back to the past, and to tell you the truth it really annoys me.

Not that it is a personal annoyance, its more like one huge road block put in your path  because other people's ignorance can really harm your health.

I think it is strange in a Jim Morrison kind of way that some get turned into celebrities by the media  not really based on out come but because they are on TV or they get interviewed by someone else in the TV spotlight.

Just because someone is on TV really does not mean they are an expert in what they plie on their show. Remember that every show has sponsors and producers.  If the recommend something it does not really mean it is effective or effective for you.  All it is is mass marketing.  And where are you when that suggestion fails you?

Its also like aggregator web sites.  They fill their pages with info taken from other sources, make it look as if this was original material, and never give you and thing to assure you it might be bogus while trying to make it look like the latest hot new discovery or cure.

Thinking of something Dannion Brinkley said not too long ago about how he believes that the it is through healthcare that the globalists will find the key to controlling the world.

If you accept Dannion's premise then it won't surprise you when I suggest how crazy it is to find too loud Jillian Michaels on "Everyday Health" as one of their 'talking heads'.

And to me it is even crazier to think she has an interview with David Agus MD about cancer.

Now mind you, I do have to agree with him on the failure of the establishment on the issue of prevention.
Agus states:  " ... we can win the war on cancer — but not the way we’re fighting it now.“We’ve made almost no impact on making people live longer with cancer,” he says in an interview ... noting that the death rate is down only 8 percent over the past six decades.Part of the problem, ..., is the way we think about the disease. “Instead of just trying to shrink the cancer, which buys a little bit of time, I want to change the entire state of your body. But I know, as a cancer doctor, I’m not that good. And I know that I lose two or three patients a week — and I don’t want to do that anymore.”The solution, he explains, is not to treat the disease but to stop it from happening in the first place. “Most cancers are preventable. We’ve got to take aggressive stances in that regard.”He goes on to tell you however, to ditch your vitamins and get your nutrients from food.
And this is where we part ways.  The parting is of course because clearly Agus has failed to do the research that proves, even if it is organic, the nutrient level in food has diminished over the years.  It  is worse for products grown in commercial agriculture.

I of course support organic and buying local but I also know that not everyone can afford this.  And so what does Agus offer you if you fall in the less affluent part of our culture?

Not much.

But our Food Cleansing Healthy Handout does and it is an inexpensive way to make food healthier.

And being that we believe in supplements, the correct choices of supplements so that it isn't a one size fits all, but a targeted approach to regaining your health.  The science on supplements supports my position, even for cancer.  Maybe something will change some day for Agus and he will see the light.

Let's hope, and work to prove Dannion wrong.

Sports and Energy Drinks Again


More today on the dangers of commercailly available sports and energy drinks from Health Day.



In the midst of this just remember this is the reason I created herbalYODA's sportZtea many years ago.  This is an all natural and organic herb blend that allows you to make your own safe and health promoting sports and energy drink at home.

Find out more about herbalYODA's sportZtea here.

Please do heed the warning not to allow your children to chew sugarless gum as the Health day article states, or use articficial sweeteners when making my tea.  These chemicals are implicated in the rise of obesity and diabetes as well as more than 100 health concerns.
WEDNESDAY, May 2 (HealthDay News) -- Sports and energy drinks are causing irreversible damage to the teeth of teens and young adults in the United States, the authors of a new study claim.
High acidity levels in the drinks erode tooth enamel, the glossy outer layer of teeth, the researchers contend in the May/June issue of the journal General Dentistry.
"Young adults consume these drinks assuming that they will improve their sports performance and energy levels and that they are 'better' for them than soda," study author Poonam Jain said in a news release from Academy of General Dentistry, which publishes the journal.
However, "most of these patients are shocked to learn that these drinks are essentially bathing their teeth with acid," Jain said.
For the study, the researchers analyzed acidity levels in 13 sports drinks and nine energy drinks. They found that acidity levels varied widely between brands and even flavors of the same brand. The effect on teeth of these acidity levels were assessed by immersing samples of human tooth enamel in each beverage for 15 minutes, followed by immersion in artificial saliva for two hours.
The cycle was repeated four times a day for five days, to simulate the exposure of teeth in teens and young adults who drink one of these beverages every few hours.
Damage to the tooth enamel was evident after five days, the researchers reported, and energy drinks caused twice as much damage as sports drinks.
Damage to tooth enamel is irreversible, the experts noted. Without the protection of enamel, teeth become overly sensitive and are more likely to decay and develop cavities.
The American Beverage Association (ABA), which represents the beverage industry, took issue with the study.
"This study was not conducted on humans, and in no way mirrors reality," the group said in a statement released Wednesday. "The authors used slices of tooth enamel samples from extracted molars, and then placed them in petri dishes of liquid for extended periods of time. People do not keep any kind of liquid in their mouths for 15-minute intervals over five-day periods."
The association added that the lab experiments could not mimic the environment of the human mouth, where saliva helps neutralize any acidity from food and drink.
The ABA also noted that other factors besides exposure to food or drinks -- things such as dental hygiene, lifestyle and genetics -- also influence tooth erosion.
According to the dentistry academy, an estimated 30 percent to 50 percent of U.S. teenagers consume energy drinks and as many as 62 percent consume at least one sports drink per day.
People "don't realize that something as seemingly harmless as a sports or energy drink can do a lot of damage to their teeth," Jennifer Bone, a spokeswoman for the academy, said in the news release.
She advised patients to minimize their consumption of sports and energy drinks, and also suggested that they chew sugar-free gum or rinse their month with water after consuming the drinks.
"Both tactics increase saliva flow, which naturally helps to return the acidity levels in the mouth to normal," she explained.
After consuming sports or energy drinks, patients should wait at least an hour before they brush their teeth. Otherwise, they will spread acid onto the tooth surfaces and increase the erosive action, Bone said.

Malaria Resistance Reported Again


Study finds signs of malaria drug resistance in Africa


PARIS, Apr 27 – Africa’s deadliest malaria parasite has shown resistance in lab tests to one of the most powerful drugs on the market — a warning of possible resistance to follow in patients, scientists said Friday.
Researchers in London found resistance to artemether in test tube analysis of blood from 11 of 28 patients who had fallen ill after travelling in countries mainly in sub-Saharan Africa – what they said was a “statistically significant” result.
Artemether is one of the most effective drugs in the artemisinin group most commonly used in malaria cocktails known as ACTs.  Read more

Fluoride and Vaccine Failures

http://bit.ly/K2a9or FMI
I am sure Mary Selecky, the Washington State Department of Health Secretary, has made no effort to keep up with the facts about vaccines, their toxins, their risk to health, and the options that should be made available to parents as she continues to hawk "Get a Shot" in reaction to the whooping couch outbreak among already vaccinated children. You need this, she says, because the shots wear off.

I am sure Mary also is blind to the damage caused by fluoride as it is forced on thousands of Washington State citizens without their permission in the form of toxic and heavy metal laden fertilizer waste provided by Cargill.

No Mary, fluoride does not truly prevent cavities.  Fluoride also causes fluorosis that impacts teeth and your skeleton.  Fluoride based osteoporosis drugs are implicated in jaw necrosis and now even ADA dentists primed to push this poison on patients are screening for it in the new patient health history form.  Gee, do you think they can connect the dots?

Now, just a week or so after I had a nice talk with a grandmother about the risk of the pertussis shot, I got a great and welcome surprise from JAMA. I was explaining to the grandmother that the nurse who told her daughter in law it was safe to get a pertussis shot while pregnant as it will also help protect the baby is grossly misinforming her, and risking not only her health but that of her baby.

The insanity just seems to get worse by the day, and Selecky's department continues to cover up its own fraud and record destruction to avoid exposing their attack on me for blowing the whistle on insurance fraud, medical record fabrication and extreme patient safety issues . The evidence is compelling.  One of the best pieces is their disregard for factual information they have on my 1977 application for license by endorsement. But this is for another story on another day.

I wrote about how vitamin C can be helpful to parents in this whooping cough situation because I care about public health, something I do not see from WA DOH.  That information is here. There is a legal requirement for any health provider to provide you with both sides of the story, something WA DOH has not done for decades, and probably so have other states and health providers.

While we hear about malaria vaccines and drugs failing Bill Gates continues to push this agenda.  We don't hear about the benefits of vitamin A for this or pneumonia.

While we hear now - at last - about the fraud in medical research -

Critics who deplore the commercialization of medical research have raised concerns about scientific fraud and misconduct that are undermining the integrity of the medical-scientific literature, and the practice of "evidence-based medicine"--- which relies on published journal reports. Recent analyses of retractions of published peer-reviewed journal reports provide supportive evidence for those critics.


Now we have the AMA reporting in its very own publication about the problem with immune suppression and fluoride.  And yes, the outcome is vaccine failure.

Looks like you might not need that extra shot after all.

And to be sure, for the Benton County(WA) Health Department head that did not reply to my correspondence to her, she should know that not all the information found on the internet is questionable.  Does she forget that FDA and CDC are on the internet too, just like the WA DOH.

Should we be trusting what they say?
