Tobacco is a mood-altering, addictive drug
that kills 500,000 Americans a year (200 million worldwide)
Costs $400 billion each year, according to "Smoking and Health
Review," (1992).
The American Lung Association says tobacco contains more than 4,000
chemicals, 60 of which causes cancer.
Some of the 'killers' are radioactivity, arsenic, ammonia, lead,
formaldehyde, nitrogen dioxide, cadmium, phenol, benzene and hydrogen
cyanide (the 'gas chamber' gas that poisons the respiratory enzymes)

Another Loss Of Freedom of Choice!
Three quarters of all Americans have historically just said NO THANKS to
getting a flu shot every year. But forced flu vaccination of all
Americans is just around the corner because vaccine manufacturers don't
want to lose any money on a product few people buy and use. If the
pharmaceutical industry gets what it wants from Congress, watch for
future flu vaccine mandates and societal sanctions for children and
adults who do not comply.
Adding 1 more immunization to the 23 now required by the pharmaceutical
industry... Not for a person's health but for the pharmaceutical
industry's healthy full pocketbooks!
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The American Academy of Pediatrics updated its
guidelines on Wednesday for influenza vaccines, saying healthy babies
under the age of 2 should be routinely immunized against the virus...

Antibiotics Linked to Digestive Disease
By Victoria Stagg Elliott
American Medical News
Use of antibiotics is a potential risk factor for the development of
Crohn's disease, a chronic inflammation of the digestive tract,
according to a paper published in the February issue of the journal Gut.
Researchers at England's University of Nottingham and Cambridge
University analyzed the British General Practice Research Database for
information about antibiotic use of those with and without the disease,
which is characterized by diarrhea, cramping, weight loss and intestinal
scarring. The database includes information about diagnosing and
prescribing practices of 5 percent of the nation's physicians and is
considered to be one of the world's largest computerized databases of
longitudinal anonymous patient medical records from this setting.
The researchers found that those with Crohn's received twice as many
prescriptions over a five-year period and were 30 percent more likely to
have been prescribed antibiotics.
Although Crohn's disease is primarily regarded as a genetic condition,
researchers have been hunting for environmental reasons why the disease
has increased significantly over the past few decades. Antibiotics are
just one of many environmental triggers being scrutinized, along with
factors such as appendectomies, the birth control pill and smoking.
"Finding the environmental trigger is the million-dollar question," said
Subra Kugaphasan, M.D., a pediatric gastroenterologist at the Medical
College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee.
Researchers conceded that antibiotic use may be due in part to patients
hunting for relief from symptoms before receiving a definitive
diagnosis.
"Our data provide some support for antibiotic exposure playing a role,
but we now need other studies particularly in children and looking at
antibiotic use early in life," said Dr. Richard Logan one of the authors
and a professor of clinical epidemiology at the University of
Nottingham.
Experts said that although the study was provocative, the numbers did
not seem strong enough to draw its conclusion even if they did reach
statistical significance. Experts did say that studies like this should
give physicians additional pause when it comes to prescribing
antibiotics.
"Here is another condition that should make all physicians circumspect
with regard to the application of antibiotics unless it's truly
indicated," said Marvin L. Corman, M.D., vice chair of surgery at North
Shore-Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New York.

FOOD OF THE
WEEK
~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~
Nutrient Rich Little Known Grain:
One of the relatively unknown grains, tops in nutrients is Quinoa.
Pronounced keen-wah, this grain is grown in the Andes Mountains in South
America where it was once a staple food for the Incas.
Quinoa has a delicious light, nutty flavor. When it cooks, the grain
opens up to make tiny spirals. Quinoa contains all eight amino acids and
therefore has better protein value than most grains. A nutrient-dense
grain; perfect for those who have elevated needs, such as pregnant or
nursing mothers.
Vegetarians and people with food allergies will find quinoa a welcome
choice; it's gluten-free and provides a remarkable array of nutrients.
It's a complete protein comparable to milk, according to the World
Health Organization. For anybody who has an interest in health ? and for
the many people who have allergies to common grains ? it's a delicious
alternative."
Quinoa's greatest hurdle is that it's still relatively unknown to many
cooks, even those with an interest in whole foods and natural
approaches. For the many people who have limited food choices now you
can use quinoa.
A simple recipe for preparing quinoa;
1 cup quinoa
Pinch of sea salt
1 3/4 cups water
Rinse quinoa well with warm water and drain. Quinoa has a natural
coating called saponin that repels insects and birds that creates a
bitter taste. Rinsing with warm water removes the saponin.
Place rinsed quinoa, salt, and water in a pot. Bring to a boil, reduce
heat to low, cover, and let simmer 15-20 minutes, until all the water is
absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.
Makes 2 1/2-3 cups
For breakfast add a bit of honey and butter for a great
stick-to-the-stomach breakfast grain!
Eat in health and watch for next week's nutrient rich food
I have written many articles on the benefit of Vitamin D (sunlight). As
usual it has taken the traditional medical world a long time to catch up
and finally realize what alternative medicine has known for years.
Michael F. Holick from the Bone Research Laboratory Section of
Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Nutrition, Department of Medicine, Boston
University School of Medicine, Boston writes; "The purpose of this
review is to put into perspective the many health benefits of vitamin D
and the role of vitamin D deficiency in increasing the risk of many
common and serious diseases, including some common cancers, type 1
diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis. Numerous
epidemiologic studies suggest that exposure to sunlight, which enhances
the production of vitamin D3 in the skin, is important in preventing
many chronic diseases. Because very few foods naturally contain vitamin
D, sunlight supplies most of our vitamin D requirement." http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/full/79/3/362
Their study also found what I have cautioned you about for a long time
and that is those in danger are; "Vitamin D deficiency is prevalent in
infants who are solely breastfed and who do not receive vitamin D
supplementation and in adults of all ages who have increased skin
pigmentation or who always wear sun protection or limit their outdoor
activities."
Their conclusion is; "Vitamin D deficiency is often misdiagnosed as
fibromyalgia." Since fibromyalgia is so out of control and prevalent
today, could it be caused by sun screen usage and or the lack of getting
proper sunlight exposure?
The report went on to state, "The hypothesis that the unrecognized
epidemic of vitamin D deficiency worldwide is a contributing factor of
many chronic debilitating diseases. Greater awareness of the insidious
consequences of vitamin D deficiency is needed. Annual measurement of
serum 25(OH)D is a reasonable approach to monitoring for vitamin D
deficiency. The recommended adequate intakes for vitamin D are
inadequate, and, in the absence of exposure to sunlight, a minimum of
1000 IU vitamin D/d is required to maintain a healthy concentration of
25(OH)D in the blood."
So get out there and get that sunlight without the sun screen. That does
not mean to spend hours in the sun! 15 to 20 minutes a day is sufficient
for most people.
Getting sunlight for you who work sunup to sundown;
*Take your lunch out in the fresh air and sunlight to eat.
*Take a "walk break" in place of a coffee break and walk in the open
sunlight for your break time.
*If you cannot get outside during the sunlight part of a day, take your
chair and work in front of a window with direct sunlight hitting as much
of your body as possible - even closed will receive some benefit - for 5
or 10 minutes two or three times a day.
*When you go shopping don't park up close but a distance from the
entrance so you are forced to walk. That action kills two birds with one
stone by getting in exercise and Vitamin D replenishment!
In the 1800's sanitariums - aka hospitals - required patients be taken
outside for morning and afternoon sunbathing! Treatments were simple in
those days but effective in a great number of people!
Be proactive in staying healthy, require more of yourself!

Watch For More Toxic Induced Illness If This Happens!
Why would the EPA, the primary federal agency with the stated mission
"to protect human health and to safeguard the natural environment,"
actually suggest that we roll back existing regulations on the
management of nuclear waste materials? One major reason that the agency
would suggest that a "non-regulatory approach" for managing nuclear
waste be considered is that such an approach could save the nuclear
industry millions of dollars, since it always costs less money to dump
nuclear waste in a regular community landfill (where your household
trash is sent) than it does to properly store the waste in a licensed
facility. The EPA worked with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) --
the federal agency charged with regulating nuclear reactors, materials,
and wastes, which originated the reckless concept that some nuclear
wastes are "Below Regulatory Concern" -- in developing this proposed
rulemaking. This could explain why the EPA is interested in "partnering"
with nuclear waste generators to find creative ways to ease the
"regulatory burden" on such companies. The NRC has developed a
reputation as an agency that coddles the industry it is supposed to be
regulating. If the EPA works with the NRC on nuclear waste matters, a
move towards deregulation should not be unexpected.
There are several distinct problems with EPA's rulemaking proposal:
(1) It introduces an option to allow mixed radioactive and
hazardous
wastes to be dumped in facilities that have permits only for hazardous
wastes. This is unacceptable, since hazardous waste dumps are not
designed to isolate and contain radiation, and there has not been
substantial research into how radioactive and chemical pollutants react
synergistically in the environment and the human body.
(2) It introduces an option to allow radioactive waste (that is
not
mixed with hazardous) to go to sites that do not have licenses or
regulations for handling it, such as standard garbage dumps (sometimes
known as "sanitary landfills"), incinerators, or hazardous sites.
Without maintaining specific, stringent regulations at facilities that
can accept radioactive waste, adjacent communities face the hazard of
radioactive contamination, as many existing facilities leak.
(3) The EPA's "non-regulatory approach" to managing waste by
"partnering" with nuclear waste generators works to protect industry,
not the public. EPA's notice of proposed rulemaking does not describe
how nuclear fuel cycle radiation will be isolated and contained from the
environment and human contact for its entire hazardous lifetime.
Further, the notice does not explain how the newly suggested approaches
for managing waste will serve to further the EPA's mission "to protect
human health and to safeguard the natural environment," whereas it is
clearly noted that simplification and reduction of the "regulatory
burden" are desired goals. No regulatory barriers are described that
would prevent the nuclear wastes at issue from going to recycling
facilities and contaminating the recycling streams which feed the
production of everyday household items like cookware, toys, cars, and
furniture. No barriers are described that would keep commercial projects
such as roads, bridges and buildings free of this contamination.
(4) The EPA's proposal merges with, and would facilitate, the
NRC's
own rulemaking to deregulate and release radioactive waste materials
from control, a process ironically called "Control of Solids." The two
agencies are working to redefine radioactive materials/waste, using
industry-friendly science that plays down health and environmental
concerns, so that waste which has heretofore been regulated and
contained can be released to unlicensed landfills, incinerators or even
recyclers, where it would have routine contact with the public and the
environment.
Two other agency-based campaigns of regulatory rollback will also
increase the risk of forced radiation exposures to the public:
1.The NRC and the Department of Transportation have recently finalized
new transport regulations that will exempt various levels of hundreds of
radionuclides from regulatory control during transit. Any wastes that do
not require regulation, labeling, manifesting, or other controls during
transport will be easier for waste generators to get rid of, after the
wastes leave the point of production. Considering heightened terrorist
concerns in a post-9/11 world, it is particularly disturbing that
additional unregulated materials could be on roads, rails, barges and
aircraft, providing further fuel for dirty bombs.
2.The Department of Energy is in the midst of a Programmatic
Environmental Impact Statement to address the release of radioactive
metals from its sites.
Right now, it is important that you send your comments to the EPA so
that the agency terminates any plans to foster deregulation of
"low-activity" radioactive wastes, and dump them in landfills. Submit
comment to the NRC here:
