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)

I read a piece this morning that gave me the chills as to the
future of our world... It said that the Coke company sells 3 million
bottles of coke every 4 minutes. I have no idea how many Pepsi sells
minute by minute and add that to all the espresso's consumed hourly the
medical world will continue to get rich! Now is it any wonder we have
rampant obesity and illnesses all over the world? Sadly people who
imbibe in soda's and rich espresso's laced with heavy creams refuse to
believe that they are harming themselves and until they become seriously
ill only then do they start to look for help, while refusing to take the
blame on themselves as to why they are ill... We must take
responsibility for our actions whether it be the elbow bending to our
mouths or any other action that will harm us or someone else and until
that happens illness is going to continue to grow at a very fast pace,
as it is now, and the drug companies are going to get richer and
richer!!!

Balancing the Brain!
Research from the University of Wisconsin's Laboratory for Affective
Neuroscience in Madison identifies the left prefrontal cortex (the
outer, gray matter) as the area of the brain associated with positive or
pleasant sensations and the right side of the brain as the area
associated with negative or unpleasant experiences.
The conclusions are based on a study of 72 heavy smokers who were asked
not to smoke for a full day. Then, with their brains wired to special
scanning equipment, they were told they could smoke again in two
minutes. The left prefrontal cortex lit up dramatically in anticipation
of a pleasurable experience, reports the Washington Post.
In a related test, the brains of 14 infants were wired and scanned
when the babies were separated from their mothers. Some babies cried and
some began exploring their environment. The right prefrontal cortex was
highly active in babies who cried, while the left was active in the
explorers, researchers stated.
The Chinese philosophy of yin and yang being a balance, hits it right on
the head! Yang stands for peace and serenity; Yin stands for confusion
and turmoil. We require both sides of our brain working their best to be
a complete and happy person. The negative and the positive must balance
out.
Keep the oxygen flowing and keep both sides functioning properly with

Vaccines Making For Illness?
People taking a rabies vaccine now have to worry about being exposed to
the fatal live rabies virus. In the manufacturing process, a filter
failed. Next time somebody tries to tell you the flu vaccine can't give
you the flu, or the IPV vaccine (inactivated polio vaccine) can't give
you polio, tell them mistakes happen in manufacturing and send them this
one. Having worked in medical offices for 20+ years I can tell you that
a recall is only as good as the people checking the lots on vaccines,
and it don't happen often!

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.
Natural medicine has come under attack as pharmaceutical company
lobbyists push lawmakers to deprive Americans of the benefits of
dietary supplements. Drug-front groups have implemented
slanderous campaigns in attempts to undermine the value of
natural health lifestyles.
These attacks to natural medicine prompted an independent review
of government-approved medicine, which revealed that
conventional medicine was the leading cause of death in the
United States. This review of government health statistics
showed that in most cases, American medicine does more harm than
good. Compelling evidence from this study unveiled astounding
statistics on the 783,936 deaths per year that have resulted
from conventional medicine.
The purpose of this article was to memorialize the failure of
the American medical system by exposing the horrifying
statistics of the inadequacies of today's health care system
with the goal of beginning some meaningful reform.
Highlights from the findings in the review:
U.S. health care spending has reached $1.6 trillion in 2003,
which represents 14 percent of the nation's gross national
product.
In a 1992 survey, a national pharmacy database found a total of
429,827 medication errors from 1,081 hospitals.
In 1974, 2.4 million unnecessary surgeries were performed that
resulted in 11,900 deaths compared to the year 2001, where 7.5
million unnecessary surgeries were performed resulting in 37,136
deaths.
A 1998 study reported an estimated 106,000 deaths from
prescription medications per year.
Nearly 9 million people were unnecessarily hospitalized in 2001.
Here are additional reasons why the traditional paradigm is
flawed:
Studies have found that the 41 million Americans without health
insurance have an increased risk for dying prematurely and not
receiving appropriate medical care.
20 percent of all causes of death occur in nursing homes.
More than 30 percent of nursing homes in the United States were
cited for abuses, exceeding over 9,000 violations.
A study of a 100-bed sub-acute care hospital revealed that only
8 percent of the patients were well nourished, 29 percent were
malnourished and 63 percent were at risk of malnutrition.
Growth hormones in veal spark debate FDA says they're
illegal, but industry says they're not new
by Elizabeth Weise
Revelations that up to 90% of U.S. veal calves are being fed synthetic
testosterone illegally are sending a shock wave through the meat
industry, causing a government crackdown and new worries about the
impact of hormones on the food supply.
In interviews with USA TODAY, veal industry officials said that calves
have been fed growth hormones for decades. Officials with the Food and
Drug Administration, however, say this has never been legal and the
safety of this practice has not been tested.
Since last Friday, the Department of Agriculture has been stopping veal
calves found to have hormone implants from entering the food supply. Its
action was prompted by a USDA veterinarian's discovery of a
hormone-releasing implant in a Wisconsin calf.
About 700,000 veal calves are slaughtered each year at 20 weeks of age.
The hormone is trenbolone acetate, which is legally used to increase
growth in adult cattle but is not approved for use in calves. ''We
consider this an illegal activity,'' says Stephen Sundlof, who heads the
FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine. He said the drug may be
metabolized differently in calves than in adult animals.
But Paul Slayton of the American Veal Association called the issue much
ado about nothing, saying hormones have been fed to calves for 30 years.
It is unknown if the hormone is harmful to people who eat veal. It is
also not known exactly how many calves are being held back as suppliers
await a possible compromise with the FDA, which may come as soon as this
weekend. Both the USDA and FDA are involved because the USDA monitors
food safety and the FDA regulates drugs given to animals.
The USDA confirms that veal processing is way down, a fact echoed by the
nation's largest veal processor. ''Nobody's sending any animals in,''
says Wayne Marcho of Marcho Farms in Harleysville, Pa.
It is too soon to know how this will affect prices or when stores and
restaurants may feel a shortage.
When the USDA discovered the problem last week, it was believed to
affect only a small number of animals. But Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa.,
said Tuesday in a letter to FDA acting Director Lester Crawford that
''more than 90% of all veal calves grown in the United States utilize a
growth implant.'' Industry officials interviewed Thursday put the usage
at 80% to 90%.
The veal industry is trying to get the FDA to stay enforcement of its
rules for at least two months, so that the calves can be slaughtered and
sold to restaurants and supermarkets. Pennsylvania is a big
veal-producing state, and Specter said that the USDA and FDA were
''likely to jeopardize the entire veal industry.''
The veal industry is being criticized by other meat producers. The
practice is ''simply wrong,'' says Gary Weber of the National
Cattlemen's Beef Association.
