Beautiful Story - M-O-T-H-E-R

2012-01-28T06:35:00.000-08:00

"M" is for the Million things she gave me,

"O" means only that she's growing old,

"T" is for the Tears she shed to save me,

"H" is for her Heart of gold,

"E" is for her Eyes with love-light shining in them,

"R" means Right, and right she'll always be,

This story begins when I was a child: I was born poor. Often we hadn't enough to eat. Whenever we had some food, Mother often gave me her portion of rice. While she was transferring her rice into my bowl, she would say "Eat this rice, son! I'm not hungry." This was mother first lie

As I grew, Mother gave up her spare time to fish in a river near our house; she hoped that from the fish she caught, she could give me a little bit more nutritious food for my growth।. Once she had caught just two fish, she would make fish soup. While I was eating the soup, mother would sit beside me and eat the what was still left on the bone of the fish I had eaten, My heart was touched when I saw it. I gave the other fish to her on my chopstick but she immediately refused it and said, "Eat this fish, son! I don't really like fish" .This was mother's second lie

Then, in order to fund my education, Mother went to a Match Factory to bring home some used matchboxes, which she filled with fresh matchsticks. This helped her get some money to cover our needs. One wintry night I awoke to find Mother filling the matchboxes by candlelight.So I said, "Mother, go to sleep; it's late: you can continue working tomorrow morning।" Mother smiled and said "Go to sleep, son! I'm not tired" This was Mother's Third Lie

When I had to sit my Final Examination, Mother accompanied me. After dawn, Mother waited for me for hours in the heat of the sun. When the bell rang, I ran to meet her.. Mother embraced me and poured me a glass of tea that she had prepared in a thermos. The tea was not as strong as my Mother's love, Seeing Mother covered with perspiration, I at once gave her my glass and asked her to drink too. Mother said "Drink, son! I'm not thirsty". This was Mother's Fourth Lie.

After Father's death, Mother had to play the role of a single parent. She held on to her former job; she had to fund our needs alone. Our family's life was more complicated. We suffered from starvation. Seeing our family's condition worsening, my kind Uncle who lived near my house came to help us solve our problems big and small. Our other neighbors saw that we were poverty stricken so they often advised my mother to marry again. But Mother refused to remarry saying "I don't need love." This was Mother's Fifth Lie.

After I had finished my studies and gotten a job, it was time for my old Mother to retire but she carried on going to the market every morning just to sell a few vegetables. I kept sending her money but she was steadfast and even sent the money back to me. She said, "I have enough money." That was Mother's Sixth Lie.

I continued my part-time studies for my Master's Degree. Funded by the American Corporation for which I worked, I succeeded in my studies. With a big jump in my salary, I decided to bring Mother to enjoy life in America but Mother didn't want to bother her son; she said to me "I'm not used to high living." That was Mother's Seventh Lie.

In her dotage, Mother was attacked by cancer and had to be hospitalized. Now living far across the ocean, I went home to visit Mother who was bedridden after an operation. Mother tried to smile but I was heartbroken because she was so thin and feeble but Mother said, "Don't cry, son! I'm not in pain." That was Mother's Eighth Lie.

Telling me this, her eighth lie, she died. For those of you who are lucky to be still blessed with your Mom's presence on Earth, this story is beautiful. Love your mother, her love without the boundaries.

Experts Advice About 7 Foods

2012-01-19T19:39:00.000-08:00

1 CANNED TOMATOES

The Expert: Fredrick vom Saal, PhD, an endocrinologist at the University of Missouri who studies bisphenol-A

The Situation: The resin linings of tin cans contain bisphenol-A, a synthetic estrogen that has been linked to ailments ranging from reproductive problems to heart disease, diabetes, and obesity। Unfortunately, acidity (a prominent characteristic of tomatoes) causes BPA to leach into your food. Studies show that the BPA in most people’s body exceeds the amount that suppresses sperm production or causes chromosomal damage to the eggs of animals. “You can get 50 mcg of BPA per liter out of a tomato can, and that’s a level that is going to impact people, particularly the young,” says vom Saal. “I won’t go near canned tomatoes.”

The Answer: Choose tomatoes in glass bottles (which do not need resin linings)

2. CORN-FED BEEF

The Expert: Joel Salatin, co-owner of Polyface Farms and author of half a dozen books on sustainable farming

The Situation: Cattle evolved to eat grass, not grains. But farmers today feed their animals corn and soybeans, which fatten up the animals faster for slaughter. More money for cattle farmers (and lower prices at the grocery store) means a lot less nutrition for us. A recent comprehensive study conducted by the USDA and researchers from Clemson University found that compared with corn-fed beef, grass-fed beef is higher in beta-carotene, vitamin E, omega-3s, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), calcium, magnesium, and potassium; lower in inflammatory omega-6s; and lower in saturated fats that have been linked to heart disease. “We need to respect the fact that cows are herbivores, and that does not mean feeding them corn and chicken manure,” says Salatin.

The Answer: Buy grass-fed beef, which can be found at specialty grocers, farmers’ markets, and nationally at Whole Foods. It’s usually labeled because it demands a premium, but if you don’t see it, ask your butcher.

3. MICROWAVE POPCORN

Expert: Olga Naidenko, PhD, a senior scientist for the Environmental Working Group

The Situation: Chemicals, including perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), in the lining of the bag, are part of a class of compounds that may be linked to infertility in humans, according to a recent study from UCLA. In animal testing, the chemicals cause liver, testicular, and pancreatic cancer. Studies show that microwaving causes the chemicals to vaporize—and migrate into your popcorn. “They stay in your body for years and accumulate there,” says Naidenko, which is why researchers worry that levels in humans could approach the amounts causing cancers in laboratory animals. DuPont and other manufacturers have promised to phase out PFOA by 2015 under a voluntary EPA plan, but millions of bags of popcorn will be sold between now and then.

The Solution: Pop natural kernels the old-fashioned way: in a skillet. For flavorings, you can add real butter or dried seasonings, such as dillweed, vegetable flakes, or soup mix.

4. CONVENTIONALLY GROWN (NOT ORGANIC) POTATOES

The Expert: Jeffrey Moyer, chair of the National Organic Standards

The Situation: Root vegetables absorb herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides that wind up in soil. In the case of potatoes—the nation’s most popular vegetable—they’re treated with fungicides during the growing season, then sprayed with herbicides to kill off the fibrous vines before harvesting. After they’re dug up, the potatoes are treated yet again to prevent them from sprouting. “Try this experiment: Buy a conventional potato in a store, and try to get it to sprout. It won’t,” says Moyer, who is also farm director of the Rodale Institute (also owned by Rodale Inc., the publisher of Prevention). “I’ve talked with potato growers who say point-blank they would never eat the potatoes they sell. They have separate plots where they grow potatoes for themselves without all the chemicals.”

The Answer: Buy organic potatoes Washing isn’t good enough if you’re trying to remove chemicals that have been absorbed into the flesh.

5. FARMED SALMON

The Expert: David Carpenter, MD, director of the Institute for Health and the Environment at the University at Albany and publisher of a major study in the journal Science on contamination in fish.

The Situation: Nature didn’t intend for salmon to be crammed into pens and fed soy, poultry litter, and hydrolyzed chicken feathers. As a result, farmed salmon is lower in vitamin D and higher in contaminants, including carcinogens, PCBs, brominated flame retardants, and pesticides such as dioxin and DDT. According to Carpenter, the most contaminated fish come from Northern Europe, which can be found on American menus. “You can only safely eat one of these salmon dinners every 5 months without increasing your risk of cancer,” says Carpenter, whose 2004 fish contamination study got broad media attention. “It’s that bad.” Preliminary science has also linked DDT to diabetes and obesity, but some nutritionists believe the benefits of omega-3s outweigh the risks. There is also concern about the high level of antibiotics and pesticides used to treat these fish. When you eat farmed salmon, you get dosed with the same drugs and chemicals.

The Answer: Switch to wild-caught Alaska salmon . If the package says fresh Atlantic, it’s farmed. There are no commercial fisheries left for wild Atlantic salmon.

6. MILK PRODUCED WITH ARTIFICIAL HORMONES

The Expert: Rick North, project director of the Campaign for Safe Food at the Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility and former CEO of the Oregon division of the American Cancer Society

The Situation: Milk producers treat their dairy cattle with recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH or rBST, as it is also known) to boost milk production. But rBGH also increases udder infections and even pus in the milk. It also leads to higher levels of a hormone called insulin-like growth factor in milk. In people, high levels of IGF-1 may contribute to breast, prostate, and colon cancers. “When the government approved rBGH, it was thought that IGF-1 from milk would be broken down in the human digestive tract,” says North. As it turns out, the casein in milk protects most of it, according to several independent studies. “There’s not 100% proof that this is increasing cancer in humans,” admits North. “However, it’s banned in most industrialized countries.”

The Answer: Check labels for rBGH-free, rBST-free, produced without artificial hormones, or organic milk These phrases indicate rBGH-free products.

7. CONVENTIONAL APPLES

The Expert: Mark Kastel, former executive for agribusiness and co-director of the Cornucopia Institute, a farm-policy research group that supports organic foods

The Situation: If fall fruits held a “most doused in pesticides contest,” apples would win. Why? They are individually grafted (descended from a single tree) so that each variety maintains its distinctive flavor. As such, apples don’t develop resistance to pests and are sprayed frequently. The industry maintains that these residues are not harmful. But Kastel counters that it’s just common sense to minimize exposure by avoiding the most doused produce, like apples. “Farm workers have higher rates of many cancers,” he says. And increasing numbers of studies are starting to link a higher body burden of pesticides (from all sources) with Parkinson’s disease.

The Answer: Buy organic apples. If you can’t afford organic, be sure to wash and peel them first.

Transfer factors are NOT vitamin, mineral, phytonutrient or any known nutrient. We only call it a nutrient for lack of a better word. Transfer factors are unlike any known nutrient.

Transfer Factors exist in your immune system. They are the “intelligence” of your immune system. Transfer factors are tiny information molecules that regulate our many body functions. Transfer factors are regulators of our health. We already have transfer factors in our body but most of the time we do not have enough of them and we need to supply our body with Transfer Factors. These transfer factors regulate a great number of our immune system cells and body chemicals. Transfer factors also regulate the body’s production of antioxidants.

Transfer factors are involved in or influence a number of body functions and processes, such as the immune system, detoxification, cellular rejuvenation, anti-oxidation and the aging process. Transfer factors store information and use that information to regulate our health. Transfer factors use amino acids to store this information। The amino acids change sequences like the alphabet. Imagine how many words twenty-six letters of the alphabet can spell. There are 44 amino acids in a transfer factor.

Government Agency recommends to Hospitals and Doctors

4Life's™ Transfer Factor is the only nutritional product that a government agency has recommended to be used on patients in hospitals, by doctors. After ten clinical studies on actual patients, the Russian Ministry of Health (like the FDA in the USA ) sent a 32-page report to hospitals and doctors in Russia, encouraging the use of Transfer Factor for patients.

In one of these studies involving actual patients, two groups were with individuals suffering from hepatitis C were studied. One group was given interferon and the other 4Life's Transfer Factor. Treatment with interferon can cost up to $15,000 per year. Transfer Factor performed in only two weeks as well as interferon did in three months. Other studies involved patients with AID’s, skin conditions and blood infections, etc. The doctors and scientists were astounded at the performance of Transfer Factor. These independent scientists made the statement, that no other nutritional product in the world can do what Transfer Factor can do.

Transfer Factors Are Like Little Brains

Transfer factors are like little brains floating throughout our body. For example, transfer factors store information about the characteristics of the chicken pox germ. When the germ re-enters the body, transfer factors recognize these germs and communicate to our immune system cells to kill the germ. Because of this, we don’t develop chicken pox a second time.

Transfer Factors Aids In Killing Off Cancer Cells

Everyday our body develops mutated cells, which develop into cancer cells if not destroyed. How does the body recognize these mutations? Transfer factors are involved in the recognition process and they signal Natural Killer (NK) cells to destroy the mutated cells.

The question is-does our body have enough transfer factors to activate our immune system to intelligently and efficiently destroy cancer cells present in our body through NK Cells?

1. Inadequate transfer factors in our body can result in the cancer cells developing undetected.

An example of how transfer factors work can be observed when we come in contact with a chicken pox germ. The first time we come in contact with the chicken pox germ, we develop chicken pox. Throughout your life, we come in contact with the chicken pox germ again and again but only develop the chicken pox disease once. Why?

2. Unregulated immune cells will try to destroy the cancer cells in a random manner and as a result also destroy other healthy cells in our body-just like trying to shoot a mosquito with a machine gun.

3. Adequate transfer factors in our body will enable our immune cells to recognize the cancer cells immediately and destroy it individually without destroying other healthy cells-just like a sniper killing off its target with precision.

Natural Killer (NK) Cells Kill Virus Infected Cells As Well As Cancer Cells

Transfer factors directly support the NK cells of the immune system. NK Cells which are specially equipped to locate and kill diseased cells provide the front line of defense.

NK cells attach to the surfaces of foreign substances or their outer cell wall, and inject a chemical “grenade” (granule) into the interior. Once inside, the granules explode and destroy the foreign invader within five minutes. The NK cell itself remains intact and moves on to destroy the next immune attacker.

Many doctors and clinics find transfer factors helpful in promoting NK function and activity as well as supporting a healthy immune system for all patients.

Transfer Factor Plus is able to raise the NK cell activity to 437% above baseline, the highest in the world. There is no other natural food supplement that has a higher activation of NK cell, together with immune information needed to help NK cells kill off cancer cells with precision.

Transfer Factors Regulate Allergic Reaction

This is another example of how transfer factors work. Harmless particles enter and pass through our body everyday. Sometimes our immune system doesn’t recognize these particles, such as pollen, dust etc., as harmless and in turn reacts to them as if they are harmful. The result is allergies.

Transfer factors are involved in regulating thisprocess. When transfer factors in our body do their job, our immune system will recognize the harmless particles for what they are and will not react to them, letting them pass through our body without any reaction.

Transfer Factors Help Our Cells To Stay Young

Transfer factors also regulate the body’s production of antioxidants. This is a very important factor in our battle against pre-mature aging and disease. Antioxidants that are consumed (from vitamins, minerals, herbs, etc.) must make their way through a dysfunctional digestive system, through a clogged circulatory system, through collapsed capillaries and through cell membranes that are hardening with age and make it more difficult for nutrients to reach the cells. At the end of the day, not much of the nutrients get to where it is needed.

Furthermore, these antioxidants (from vitamins, minerals, herbs, etc।) work from outside the cells whereas transfer factors work from within the cell, inside-out.

Transfer Factor Study with Autistic Children

Study on 9 children. Ages: 2 to 10 years. These children were given three capsules of Transfer Factor, three times daily, for three months. Each patient was assessed prior to the treatment, six weeks into the study, and at the completion of the three-month study. Dr. Bock used the Gilliam Autism Rating Scale for evaluation purposes. This method applies different scores based on: stereotyped “autistic” behaviors, communication, social interaction and developmental markers. These scores are then added together to determine an autism quotient. The higher the autism quotient is, the higher the degree of autism in the patient. At the end of the three-month study, seven out of the nine autistic children had at least some improvement. Specifically, these improvements included:

• More attentive • Eye contact improved • Eczema improved • Decreased incidence of illness • Improved language skills • Resolution of diarrhea • Improved toileting skills

Although this study was small, Dr। Bock believes its results are very promising. He has included Transfer Factor as part of his treatment protocol and is excited about its possibilities for boosting the immune system in patients with autism as well as many other conditions he encounters on a daily basis.

Transfer Factors Are Highly Absorbable

Transfer factors are very tiny in size therefore pass through the digestive system and small intestinal wall very easily to reach the cells. Other competitive supplements make a big deal out of being extra absorbable, but no nutritional product can compare to transfer factors’ ability to move anywhere in the body.

Size measurements:
. Insulin
-approx. 6,000-10,000 Daltons
. Transfer factor
-approx. 3,500-10,000 Daltons
. Cytokines
-approx. 300-400 Daltons

Transfer factors are more of a soup than individual molecules floating through our body. Within this transfer factor soup are tiny cytokines that weigh as little as 300-400 Daltons. Transfer factors use these cytokines to communicate to other cells.

Transfer factors increase the actual production of natural antioxidants from within the cells. This is a key to staying well and younger, functionally.

Within the cell are mitochondria. Mitochondria are small structures that produce cellular energy which allows each cell, gland, organ etc. to do their jobs. The mitochondria process and manufactures energy but also creates millions of free radicals as a by product. Free radicals damage cells. Transfer factors increase the production of antioxidants from within the cells; and this assures that we are experiencing the greatest possible protection.

Transfer Factors = Nano Technology

Cytokines are small proteins released by cells. They have a specific effect on the interactions of cells, on communications between cells or on the behavior of cells. Cytokines are 300-400 Daltons in size which make it a nano sized communicative protein.

Transfer factors communicate through very small cytokines which pass easily through the cell membrane into the part of the cell that produces glutathione which acts as antioxidants within the cell. By consuming Transfer Factor, there is more free glutathione, catalase and ascobates available to cells.

Transfer factors increase the production of glutathione-s-transferase by nearly 50%.Glutathione and catalase are very powerful antioxidants that are produced within the cell-much more powerful than the antioxidants that we consume. Research found that through consuming Transfer Factors oxidation is reduced by approximately 35% at cellular level. This is much more than what any combination of antioxidants can do in reducing oxidation. When the oxidation is reduced, there will be more glutathione available to be converted into glutathione-s-transferase for detoxification at a cellular level.

Transfer factors increase the production of glutathione-s-transferase by nearly 150%.
Glutathiones supplements taken orally are not effective as the molecule is large and most of it is either destroyed by the digestive system before they even reach the cells or not absorbed at all.

Some supplements boast of having high ORAC value – Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (antioxidant measurement), as high as 72,000 ORAC for mangosteen juice, but our body can only absorb 6,000 ORAC at one given time therefore the rest just goes to waste.

Compared to the more common detoxification methods of the blood, liver & colon, transfer factors detoxifies the whole body at cellular level from the tip of your hair to your toe nails.

MSG – The Slow Poison

2010-06-07T20:49:00.000-07:00

The food additive MSG (Monosodium Glutamate or sodium glutamate) It is used as a food additive and is commonly marketed as a flavour enhancer. It has the HS code 29224220 and the E number E621. MSG was subsequently patented by Ajinomoto Corporation of Japan in 1909. In its pure form, it appears as a white crystalline powder .The name 'Aji no moto' translates to "essence of taste". It was introduced to the United States in 1947 as Ac'cent flavor enhancer.[ Glutamic acid and its ions and salts, called glutamates, are flavor-enhancing compounds which provide an savory taste to food. Glutamic acid is a natural constituent of many fermented or aged foods, including soy sauce, fermented bean paste, and cheese, and is also a component of hydrolyzed protein such as yeast extract. The sodium salt of glutamic acid, monosodium glutamate (MSG), is a widely used additive in the food industry.MSG manufacturers themselves admit that it addicts people to their products. It makes people choose their product over others, and makes people eat more of it than they would if MSG wasn’t added.

The study shows food additive MSG (Monosodium Glutamate) is a slow poison. MSG hides behind 25 or more names, such as “Natural Flavouring.” MSG is even in your favourite coffee from Tim Horton’s and Starbucks coffee shops!

I wondered if there could be an actual chemical causing the massive obesity epidemic, and so did a friend of mine, John Erb. He was a research assistant at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada and spent years working for the government. He made a remarkable discovery while going through scientific journals for a book he was writing called ‘The Slow Poisoning of America.’

In hundreds of studies around the world, scientists were creating obese mice and rats to use in diet or diabetes test studies. No strain of rat or mice is naturally obese, so scientists have to create them. They make these creatures morbidly obese by injecting them with MSG when they are first born.The MSG triples the amount of insulin that the pancreas normally creates, causing rats (and perhaps humans) to become obese.

When I heard this, I was bewildered, leading me to head into my kitchen to check the cupboards and the refrigerator. MSG was in everything -- the Campbell’s soup cans, the Hostess Doritos, the Lays flavoured potato chips, Top Ramen, Betty Crocker Hamburger Helper, Heinz canned gravy, Gloria Swanson frozen prepared meals, and Kraft branded salad dressings, particularly the so-called “healthy low-fat” ones.
The items that didn’t have MSG marked on the product labels had something called “Hydrolysed Vegetable Protein,” which is just another name for Monosodium Glutamate.

For those of us not accustomed to all these, it was a shock to see the myriad foods we feed our children everyday that are filled with this stuff. Frighteningly MSG is hidden under many different names in order to fool those who read the ingredient lists, so that they don’t catch on. Other names to watch out for that is also MSG are “Accent,” “Ajinomoto,” “Natural Meat Tenderiser,” etc.

But it doesn’t stop there.

When our family went out to eat, we started asking at the restaurants what menu items contained MSG. Many employees, even the managers, swore they didn’t use MSG. But when we ask for the ingredient list, which they grudgingly provided, sure enough, MSG and Hydrolysed Vegetable Protein were everywhere.Burger King, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, every restaurant -- even the sit-down eateries like TGIF, Chili’s, Applebee’s, and Denny’s -- use MSG in amazing abundance. KFC – formerly known as Kentucky Fried Chicken – seemed to be the WORST offender: MSG was in every chicken dish, salad dressing and sauce. No wonder I loved to eat that coating on the skin -- their secret spice was MSG!

So why is MSG in so many of the foods we eat? Is it a preservative or a vitamin or an innocuous flavour enhancer? Not according to my friend John Erb. In his book ‘The Slow Poisoning of America,’ he said that MSG is added to food for the addictive effect it has on the human body.Even the propaganda website sponsored by the food manufacturers’ lobby group supporting MSG explains that the reason they add it to food is to make people eat more.

Not only is MSG scientifically proven to cause obesity, it is an addictive substance. Since its introduction into the American food supply fifty years ago, MSG has been added in increasingly larger doses to the pre-packaged meals, soups, snacks and fast foods we are tempted to eat every day.The FDA has set no limits on how much of it can be added to food. They claim it’s safe to eat in any amount. But how can they claim it’s safe when there are hundreds of scientific studies with titles like the following:

“The monosodium glutamate (MSG) obese rat as a model for the study of exercise in obesity.” – Gobatto CA, Mello MA, Souza CT, Ribeiro IA. Res Commun Mol Pathol Pharmacol. 2002.

“Adrenalectomy abolishes the food-induced hypothalamic serotonin release in both normal and monosodium glutamate-obese rats.” – Guimaraes RB, Telles MM, Coelho VB, Mori C, Nascimento CM, Ribeiro. Brain Res Bull. 2002 Aug.

“Obesity induced by neonatal monosodium glutamate treatment in spontaneously hypertensive rats: An animal model of multiple risk factors.” – Iwase M, Yamamoto M, Iino K, Ichikawa K, Shinohara N, Yoshinari Fujishima. Hypertens Res. 1998 Mar.

“Hypothalamic lesion induced by injection of monosodium glutamate in suckling period and subsequent development of obesity.” – Tanaka K, Shimada M, Nakao K Kusunoki. Exp Neurol. 1978 Oct.

So what can we do to stop the food manufactures from dumping this fattening and addictive MSG into our food supply and causing the obesity epidemic we now see?
Several months ago, John Erb took his book and his concerns to one of the highest government health officials in Canada. While he was sitting in the government office, the official told him, “Sure, I know how bad MSG is. I wouldn’t touch the stuff.” But this top-level government official refuses to tell the public what he knows.

The big media doesn’t want to tell the public either, fearing issues with their advertisers. It seems that the fallout on the fast food industry may hurt their profit margin. The food producers and restaurants have been addicting us to their products for years, and now we are paying the price for it.

Our children should not be cursed with obesity caused by an addictive food additive. But what can I do about it? I’m just one voice! What can I do to stop the poisoning of our children, while our governments are insuring financial protection for the industry that is poisoning us?

This message is going out to everyone I know in an attempt to tell you the truth that the corporate-owned politicians and media won’t tell you. The best way you can help to save yourself and your children from this drug-induced epidemic is to forward this article to everyone. With any luck, it will circle the globe before politicians can pass the legislation protecting those who are poisoning us.The food industry learned a lot from the tobacco industry. Imagine if big tobacco had a bill like this in place before someone blew the whistle on nicotine?

We the public do not want to be rats in one giant experiment and we do not approve of food that makes us into a nation of obese, lethargic, addicted sheep, feeding the food industry’s bottom line while waiting for the heart transplant, the diabetic-induced amputation, blindness, or other obesity-induced, life-threatening disorders.

With your help we can put an end to this poison. Do your part in sending this message out by word of mouth, email, or by distribution of this printout to your friends all over the world and stop this “Slow Poisoning of Mankind” by the packaged food industry.

Blowing the whistle on MSG is our responsibility, so get the word out.

Cell phones as bad as x-rays

2010-03-23T22:24:00.000-07:00

Would you allow 1600 chest x-rays for yourself or your child?According to The Independent, a recent study led by a renowned neurosurgeon, Dr. Vini Khurana, strongly demonstrates that prolonged exposure to mobile phone radiation will result in brain cancer and neighboring tissue damage:Mobile phones could kill far more people than smoking or asbestos, a study by an award-winning cancer expert has concluded. He says people should avoid using them wherever possible and that governments and the mobile phone industry must take "immediate steps" to reduce exposure to their radiation

KIDS SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED CELL PHONES. Instead, they live with them like a second appendage.By 2010 there will be 31 million young cell phone users, 10.5 million of them pre-teens."Parents have made teens and their younger 8-12 year old siblings the fastest growing segment of the cell phone market," says Yankee Group, a consulting firm which promotes all things wireless. In 2007, a Harris Interactive survey reported that American kids age 10-17 admit to using a cell phone an average of up to 3.75 hours per day.A teen boasting five or more hours per day is not uncommon.

I would not want to be a heavy user of a mobile phone," says Professor Bruce Armstrong, researcher at the University of Sydney School of Public Health. Heading the Australian component of the multi-nation Inter phone study project, Armstrong told the media in April, 2008, that evidence of a mobile phone connection with harmful effects, including tumors, is accumulating.

For kids, this is bad news. In 2005, the Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics confirmed that children are especially sensitive to all electromagnetic fields because their developing nervous systems are fragile, their brain tissues more conductive and their smaller skeletons more easily penetrated by the waves.Others electrical component effects the body after long-term exposures including continuous waves from radio and TV transmitter towers, cordless phone base stations, power lines, and wireless/Wife computing devices.clinical studies internationally and one long-term meta-analysis, for a results link between mobile phone usage and certain brain tumours

Microwave phones can make kids hearing-impaired. According to research presented in 2007 by the American Academy of Otolaryngology, cell phone radiation incrementally damages the inner ear, causing high frequency hearing loss. Those who talk an hour a day or more, sustain the most damage. Youthful cell phone habituates will suffer major and irreversible hearing damage by the time they reach young adulthood.

Surgery: Annie Levitz, 16, lost the feeling in her hands because she was spending so much time texting

U.S. teenage girl needs surgery for loss of feeling in fingers after sending more than 4,000 text messages a month.Annie Levitz, 16, lost the feeling her hands because she was spending so much time typing messages on her mobile phone. At her worst, she was sending more than 100 texts every day.And most of the messages she sent were pointless.

She said: ‘It's not even good texts.
‘It's like, "Hey, hey, what's up? What's up? Not much." Just ridiculous texting. I'm learning not to do [it] anymore.’
Annie said that she got scared after she began to develop pain.
‘I started losing feeling in my hands and they'd go numb,’ she explained. ‘I'd go to pick up dishes and things and they'd just fall out of my hands.’Doctors then diagnosed Annie,and fitted braces on her wrists.She has also had cortisone injections to deal with the pain. But Annie will still have to go under the knife in a bid to relieve her discomfort.

Brown Spot Removal

2009-04-12T05:28:00.000-07:00

Skin tone is one of the most visible indicators of human individuality. Genetics are key, but other factors can affect skin tone, like environmental factors or, even in some cases, cosmetic procedures. Dark or light, skin tone may be altered (think Michael Jackson!).

The science behind skin tone is defined by the pigment (melanin) in the skin. Formed by pigment-producing cells called melanocytes, melanin is the substance that gives the skin its natural colour. People with darker skin have higher amounts of melanin, and those with less melanin have lighter or fairer skin tone.

Most commonly, chronic pigmentary skin problems occur as a result of increased melanin production. This creates a darker skin tone that may be blotchy and uneven. Though causes of skin pigmentation can range from auto-immune conditions to drug reactions or genetic predisposition, sun damage is probably the leading cause of most skin pigmentation problems.

Thousands of women battle skin pigmentary problems related to sun exposure and hormonal changes. One of the most common and under-diagnosed skin or facial skin discolouration problems in Asian skin is melasma. Melasma,tan and dark brown patches usually develop on the upper cheek.

Drugs For Cough And Cold Too Risky For Toddlers.

2008-03-23T18:30:00.000-07:00

United States warns about drugs for cough and cold .The medicines too risky for toddlers.Parents should not give sniffling babies and toddlers over- the- counter cough and cold medicines – they’ re too risky for tots so small.

The FDA is issuing a public health advisory to warn parents to avoid these drugs for children under age two “because serious and potentially life –threatening side effects can occur.”

It not the first warning about cold remedies and tots: Drugs companies last October quit selling dozens of visions targeted specifically to babies and toddlers.
The same month, the FDA'S own scientific advisers voted that the drugs don’t even work in small children and shouldn’t be used in preschoolers, either –anyone under age six.

They may still have infant-targeted drugs at home, or they may buy drugs meant for older children to give to hacking tots instead, said Dr Charles Ganley, FDA’s non-prescription drugs chief.“We still have a concern.” Ganley Said.”It falls out of people’s consciousness. We’re still in the middle of cold season right now.”Ganley added that he is particularly concerned by recent surveys that suggest many parents don’t believe OTC cold remedies could pose a problem, especially if they’ve used them with an older child who seemed to get better.

Think About This To Get Better Mind:

2008-03-17T18:37:00.000-07:00

At least 5 people in this world love you so much, they would die for you
The only reason anyone would ever hate you, is because they want to be just like you.
A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.
Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
Without you, someone may not be living. You are special and unique, in your own way.
Someone that you don't know even exists, loves you.
When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.
When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look, you most likely turned your back on the world.
When you think you have no chance at getting what you want, you probably won't get it, but if you believe in yourself, you probably sooner or later will get it.
Always remember complements you received, forget about the rude remarks.
Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much better when they know.
If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they're great.

In order not to be taken in by any cheap sales promotion,consumers should have a good idea of the prices of the goods especially those that they regularly purchase.Then they can judge whether the sale price is a genuine discount

Food that leads to infertility risks

2007-09-29T11:08:00.000-07:00

WOMEN who consume low-fat milk and yoghurt may find it harder to become pregnant, a new study has found.

A team at Harvard School of Public Health found that women who eat a lot of low-fat foods were 85 per cent more likely to suffer from a failure to ovulate.

Women who had a least one serving a day of a high-fat dairy food were 27 per cent less likely to suffer from this from of infertility than were those who consumed high-fat dairy food only once a week.

The finding suggests that the obsession with low-fat foods, driven by nutritionists trying to protect against heart disease and by consumers trying to lose weight, may have a downside.

Anovulatory infertility – the type studied here – is just one of a variety of ways in which infertility can be caused. In the population studied, it was responsible for one in eight cases of a failure to conceive.

The data comes from the Nurses’ Study, a long – running research project.

Researcher Warns of Cancer Risk From rBGH (non-organic) Dairy Foods

CHICAGO, March 15 /PRNewswire/ -- The following was released today by Samuel S. Epstein, M.D., Professor Environmental Medicine, University of Illinois Chicago, School of Public Health:

As reported in a January 23, 1998 article in Science, men with high blood levels of the naturally occurring hormone insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) are over four times more likely to develop full-blown prostate cancer than are men with lower levels

While warning that increasing IGF-1 blood levels by treating the elderly with growth hormone (GH) to slow aging may increase risks of prostate cancer, the 1998 report appears unaware of the fact that the entire U.S. population is now exposed to high levels of IGF-1 in dairy products. In February 1995, the Food and Drug Administration approved the sale of unlabelled milk from cows injected with Monsanto's genetically engineered bovine growth hormone, rBGH, to increase milk production. As detailed in a January 1996 report in the International Journal of Health Services, rBGH milk differs from natural milk chemically, nutritionally, pharmacologically and immunologically, besides being contaminated with pus and antibiotics resulting from mastitis induced by the biotech hormone.

Most critically, rBGH milk is supercharged with high levels of abnormally potent IGF-1, up to 10 times the levels in natural milk and over 10 times more potent. IGF-1 resists pasteurization and digestion by stomach enzymes and is well absorbed across the intestinal wall. Drinking rBGH milk would thus be expected to increase blood IGF-1 levels and to increase risks of developing prostate cancer and promoting its invasiveness. Apart from prostate cancer, multiple lines of evidence have also incriminated the role of IGF-1 as risk factors for breast, colon, and childhood cancers.

ANTIBIOTICS AND 'SUPERBUGS' – STRAIGHT FROM FARM TO TABLE
16 AUGUST 2002 The University of Sydney News - Volume 34 No 13

Trade pressures will force the Australian agricultural industry to abandon practices which promote "superbugs" – diseases resistant to antibiotics, according to Associate Professor Peter Collignon from the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of Sydney's Canberra Clinical School.

Delivering a Faculty of Medicine Dean's lecture last week, Dr Collignon traced a range of evidence linking the use of antibiotics in animals to the increasing resistance humans are showing to antibiotics. He argued that much of this use had minimal, if any, benefits for animals, and was indefensible in the light of the importance of antibiotics for fighting disease in humans.

While acknowledging that resistance has been a problem since antibiotics were first used, and saying that medical practitioners had a duty to minimize their use, Dr Collignon said there was no doubt that resistant bacteria can come across the food chain.

The continuous in-feed use of antibiotics began in agriculture in the early 1950s, especially in the pig, poultry, cattle and aquaculture industries. Antibiotic resistance is an increasing problem around the world, and is exacerbated by international travel. Already, treatment is very difficult – and sometimes impossible – for people with infections caused by acinetobacter, Staph aureus, pneumococcus, E coli, and enterococcus. "While most of these resistant bacteria are human in origin, a number of them such as enterococcus, E. coli and salmonella, can be spread via the food chain," Dr Collignon said.

"Since a related antibiotic is now being used in human medicine we wish to avoid any likelihood of antibiotic resistance developing and affecting people," he said in a statement. "Cancelling its use as a growth promotion in animals is the way to do this." There have been growing concerns that the use of certain antibiotics, particularly in the chicken industry, is leading to antibiotic resistance in human patients. Virginiamycin is most commonly used by the chicken and pork industries to boost growth in animals.
"
Of particular concern is the rise of the "superbug" known as VRE, vancomycin resistant enterococcus, which is extremely difficult and costly to treat.

Dr Collignon also opposes the use in animals of "last line" antibiotics such as fluoroquinolones. "If resistance to them develops there may be no other antibiotics available to treat serious infections in people," he said.

(FDA Consumer magazine January-February 2001)

Poultry growers use fluoroquinolone drugs to keep chickens and turkeys from dying from Escherichia coli (E. coli) infection, a disease that they could pick up from their own droppings. But the size of flocks precludes testing and treating individual chickens--so when a veterinarian diagnoses an infected bird, the farmers treat the whole flock by adding the drug to its drinking water. While the drug may cure the E. coli bacteria in the poultry, another kind of bacteria--Campylobacter--may build up resistance to these drugs. And that's the root of the problem.

People who consume chicken or turkey contaminated with fluoroquinolone-resistant Campylobacter are at risk of becoming infected with a bacteria that current drugs can't easily kill. Campylobacter is the most common bacterial cause of diarrheal illness in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It's estimated to affect over 2 million persons every year, or 1 percent of the population.

Commonly found in chickens, Campylobacter doesn't make the birds sick. But humans who eat the bacteria-contaminated birds may develop fever, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps. In people with weakened immune systems, Campylobacter can be life-threatening. Eating undercooked chicken or turkey, or other food that has been contaminated from contact with raw poultry, is a frequent source of Campylobacter infection. Not washing utensils, countertops, cutting boards, sponges, or hands after coming into contact with raw poultry can also spread the bacteria and cause infection. People infected with Campylobacter may be prescribed a fluoroquinolone--which may or may not work.

Pelajarilah keadaan ini ,natural food banyak kebaikan.Ayam dan lembu yang dipelihara secara biasa lebih terjamin mutunya.Ayam diternak secara komersial memang disuntik untuk menjamin pertumbuhan ayam itu sendiri. Bergantung kepada penternak itu sendiri ,jika hatinya suci dan sentiasa mengigati setiap pekerjannya dihisab ,mereka tidak akan berani menjualkan hasil ternakan yang boleh mudaratkan orang yang membeli lantaran lebihan ubat atau tempoh rehat selepas disuntik mencukupi masa. Begitu juga dengan penanaman sayuran dan buah2an . Sekiranya ada rasa tanggungjawab semuanya terjamin selamat dan diberkati Allah.

Makan dirumah menjadikan kita peka terhadap bahan makanan .Sikap suka makan di luar seringkali menjadi punca permasalahan kesihatan. Tidak dinafikan makan di luar adalah cara paling mudah untuk menikmati hidangan yang enak dan menyelerakan tetapi kesedapan sebenarnya mampu menjadi `racun’ kepada kesihatan.
Ramuan untuk penyediaan makanan adalah di luar pengetahuan pengguna tentang status halal dan juga mutunya yang boleh menimbulkan tanda tanya kepada pengguna. Ramuan dalam masakan yang sebenarnya boleh memudaratkan seperti penggunaan serbuk perisa, pewarna, minyak low quality ,mungkin terdapat lebihan gula dan garam dalam masakan akan menjejaskan kesihatan ..

Langkah terbaik untuk menjaga kesihatan di peringkat awal ini adalah amalan menyediakan atau memasak juadah hasil air tangan sendiri. Sedikit sebanyak ia juga dapat memberi kepuasan serta menjamin kebersihan, lantas kesihatan sekeluarga dapat dipelihara.Makanan lebih berkat kerana semasa membasuh amalan membaca Selawat dibuat dan membaca Bismillah setiap kali melakukan apa saje pergerakan didapur.
Watch out your food!
