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)

Something To Think About
============================
I could not believe the asinineness (I just came
up with that word as it fits something so rediculous) of the FDA.
Now they are looking for drug companies to come up with a antidote (they
call it treating complications I call it the snake bite that can kill)
for side effects of small pox vaccine... Do you realize how much of our
money they are going to pay the drug companies to find an antidote, yet
same said drug company, that created the problem in the first place will
be paid to find and antidote and then they will make billions from
selling it to the idiots who believe they are doing good for us...
Medicine and the FDA just gets more ridiculous all the time.

Vioxx, Blood Pressure Medications Don't Mix
Study Shows Combination Doubles Risk of Heart Attack
By Peggy Peck
WebMD Medical News
(New Orleans) -- The popular arthritis drug Vioxx is once again causing
concern among heart specialists. This time, a study suggests that taking
both Vioxx and high blood pressure medications doubles the risk of a
heart attack.
Andrew Whelton, MD, of Universal Clinical Research Center in Hunt
Valley, Md., tells WebMD he analyzed medical insurance claims from more
than 34,000 arthritis patients to determine if arthritis drugs such as
Vioxx and Celebrex, as well as ibuprofen, naproxen, and aspirin,
increased the risk for heart attacks.
After accounting for other factors that increase the risk of a heart
attack, such as age and a history of heart attack, Vioxx was the only
drug that increased the risk of a heart attack. But the risk was only
significant among people taking medications to treat high blood
pressure.
Whelton, who presented his findings at the American College of
Cardiology Scientific Session 2004, says he isn't recommending that
arthritis patients avoid Vioxx. But he says he thinks that doctors
should carefully consider using the drug in patients who are also being
treated for high blood pressure.
Asked why Vioxx appeared to increase the risk for heart attack when
other arthritis treatments did not, Whelton says, "We think it is a
problem with the molecule, rather than with the drug's effect on
inflammation." But he says that more research is needed for a definitive
answer.
Vioxx Under Scrutiny
This isn't the first time that Vioxx has come under fire from heart
specialists. In 2001, researchers at The Cleveland Clinic reported in
The Journal of the American Medical Association that people taking Vioxx
or Celebrex for arthritis were twice as likely to have a heart attack as
patients taking the arthritis drug naproxen. In 2002, the FDA required
that the Vioxx label be changed to include information about possible
increased risk of heart attack.
Vioxx and Celebrex are newer versions of anti-inflammatory drugs for
arthritis called Cox-2 inhibitors. They were created to help decrease
some of the side effects of older anti-inflammatory drugs, such as
ulcers and bleeding in the stomach. Bextra is the third and newest drug
in this group.
Robert Harrington, MD, professor of medicine at Duke University in
Durham, N.C., tells WebMD that a head-to-head trial between Vioxx and
Celebrex would be the only way to "really answer this question about
increased risk." Harrington was not involved in Whelton's study.
Meanwhile, Harrington says he wouldn't advise taking patients off Vioxx
although he does suggest continued monitoring.

FOOD OF THE
WEEK
~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~
The Ultimate Pineapple!
Christopher Columbus discovered this delectable food growing on the
island of Guadeloupe in 1493 and took some back to Spain. They became
very popular in Europe by the 1600s.
Bromelain has been used for hundreds of years as a digestive aid, and to
treat inflammation and other health problems. Recently, bromelain has
been investigated for possible anticancer activity and now studies show
it to contain protease, that is a great blood thinner cholesterol
lowering agent, thereby preventing heart disease. Now all these will
require daily consumption of pineapple and a very large portion.
The exceptional juiciness and vibrant tropical flavor of pineapple that
balances the tastes of sweet and tart make them only second to bananas
as America?s favorite tropical fruit. Although the season for pineapple
runs from March through June, they are available year-round in local
markets.
Pineapple was a culinary favorite of the fierce Carib Indians who lived
on islands in the sea that still bears their name.
High in fiber and very rich in minerals and vitamins: raw pineapple
contains CALCIUM, a mineral, is used for building bones and teeth and in
maintaining bone strength. Calcium is also used in muscle contraction,
blood clotting, and maintenance of cell membranes. IRON, Necessary for production hemoglobin, and oxygenation of red
blood cells, builds up blood quality, and increases resistance as well
as increasing energy production. MAGNESIUM, Key substance in proper functioning of nerves and
muscles and healthy maintenance of bones. Helps protect the arterial
lining from the stress of sudden blood pressure changes. PHOSPHORUS, Essential for utilization of carbohydrate, fats and
proteins for growth, maintenance, repair of cells, and energy
production. Necessary for proper skeletal growth, tooth development,
kidney functioning and transference of nerve impulses. POTASSIUM, Essential for muscles, nerves and heart. Aids in
proper maintenance of mineral balance of blood, as well as stable blood
pressure. Works with sodium to regulate the body's water balance. SODIUM, The mineral is needed to maintain proper water balance
and blood pH. The mineral aids in the transmission of nerve impulses,
production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, muscle function and
immune system maintenance. ZINC, important in prostate gland functions and the growth of
reproductive organs. The mineralization of bone, a healthy immune
system, the digestion of proteins, the acuity of taste and smell,
detoxification of free radical promoting metals, collagen formation and
wound healing, all depend on zinc. It assists in the transportation of
vitamin A in the blood. Sufficient intake and absorption of zinc are
needed to maintain the proper concentration of vitamin E in the blood. COPPER, its functions involve the development and maintenance of
the cardiovascular, skeletal and the nervous system, including the
brain. The development and maintenance of the red blood cells and
healthy skin and hair also depend upon copper. Found in all the tissues,
the mineral is most concentrated in the brain, heart, kidney, and liver. MANGANESE, essential cofactor in a number of enzymes important in
energy production and antioxidant defenses. SELENIUM, enhances the immune system, normal development of the
fetus during pregnancy, improving arthritic symptoms, and protecting the
skin from UV rays. A deficiency could result in birth defects, increased
risk of cancer, heart and liver diseases, Down's syndrome and
fibrocystic breast disease.

Low in calories! 1 cup = 75 calories. Pineapple is best eaten
alone between meals or its enzymes will be used up digesting food.
Selecting, storing and using pineapple:
Look for pineapples that are heavy for their size. While larger
pineapples will have more edible flesh, there is usually no difference
in quality between a small and large size pineapple. Pineapples should
be free of soft spots, bruises and darkened ?eyes,? all of which may
indicate that the pineapple is past its prime. Pineapple stops ripening
as soon as it is picked, so choose fruit with a fragrant sweet smell at
the stem end. Avoid pineapple that smells musty, sour or fermented.
Pineapple can be left at room temperature for one or two days before
serving. While this process will not make the fruit any sweeter, it will
help it to become softer and more juicy. Since they are very perishable,
you should watch closely during storing period to ensure that they do
not spoil. After two days, if you are still not ready to consume the
pineapple, you should wrap it in a perforated plastic bag and store it
in the refrigerator where it will keep for a maximum of three to five
more days.
Pineapple that has been cut up should be stored in the refrigerator in
an airtight container. It will stay fresher and retain more taste and
juiciness if you also place some liquid, preferably some juice from the
pineapple, in the container. Although pineapple can be frozen, this
process greatly affects its flavor.
Our favorite way of eating pineapple is fresh and raw, can't beat it for
great taste and enjoyment.
Word of caution: If you are taking blood thinners eat pineapple
or drink pineapple juice, but watch your blood closely for too much
thinning.
Senators Fault Mercury Pollution
Proposal
By THE NEW YORK TIMES
WASHINGTON, April 1 — Forty-five senators and 10 state attorneys general
asked the Environmental Protection Agency on Thursday to withdraw its
proposal on how to regulate mercury emissions from coal-fired power
plants and replace it with a more stringent proposal.
The agency said in December that it would abandon a Clinton
administration plan in favor of a market system that would let plants
buy and sell the rights to emit mercury.
In separate letters to the agency, the senators and the attorneys
general said the new proposal would not do enough to protect children's
health and would violate the Clean Air Act. Cynthia Bergman, the E.P.A.
spokeswoman, responded with a statement that said, "The final rule will
be defined by the availability of technology that has been adequately
tested and available for industrywide deployment."
The letters underscore growing concern over whether the administration
has adequately balanced the needs of the energy industry with the
requirements of the act.
The 45 senators included 7 Republicans: John McCain of Arizona, Susan
Collins and Olympia J. Snowe of Maine, Judd Gregg and John E. Sununu of
New Hampshire, Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island and Lamar Alexander of
Tennessee.
The attorneys general were from Connecticut, Delaware, Maine,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York,
Pennsylvania and Vermont.
