 Vaccine bombshell: Baby monkeys given standard doses of popular vaccines develop autism symptomsBy Ethan A. Huff, May 6 2012
(NaturalNews) If vaccines play absolutely no role in the development of childhood autism, a claim made by many medical authorities today, then why are some of the most popular vaccines commonly administered to children demonstrably causing autism in animal primates?

 The Measles Lie, and the ongoing ad campaign disguised as newsBy D Holt, May 6 2012
(NaturalNews) An article in the Daily Mail UK, has reported that there has been the highest rate of measles infection since 1988. It goes on to say that 214 cases have been reported in the Mersey-side area alone.

He is also quoted as saying...
 Powdered coffee 'creamer' isn't food, it's processed chemicalsBy Ethan A. Huff, May 6 2012
(NaturalNews) Every day, millions of Americans add powdered coffee "creamer" products to their morning cups of joe because they falsely believe that these substances are somehow healthier than real cream. But little do they know that most coffee creamer products contain no actual cream, or food for that matter, as they are really nothing more than a crafty blend of toxic chemicals.
When powdered coffee creamers first came onto the scene back in the 1950s, they actually contained real dehydrated...

However, even with the prescriptions, most experience an inability to function normally while having a migraine. The American Academy of...
 Use these natural remedies to fight and overcome superbugsBy Sarka-Jonae Miller, May 6 2012
(NaturalNews) Nearly half of the meat sold in the United States has been found to contain methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MSRA), a strain that causes a staph infection but is resistant to antibiotic drugs. Antibiotic resistance caused by overusing antibiotics in people and animals creates superbugs, germs that cannot be killed with regular antibiotics. To combat antibiotic resistance, doctors try stronger meds. However, essential oils, garlic and vinegar can work as a natural MRSA treatment...

A new study by neurological researchers from Rush University Medical Center that will be published...
 The People vs. Monsanto: How the lying giant prevailed (opinion)By Hesh Goldstein, April 27 2012
(NaturalNews) On Wednesday, April 25th, the hearing was held to label GMOs on Oahu. I had the rare privilege to be the first testifier. My points were simple and to the point.
1. The Monsanto people will blatantly lie about no testing ever being done or any reports showing adverse health effects of GMOs being sprayed with Monsanto's Roundup.
2. That we are a government of, for and by the people. Not the Corporation.
3. That all the members of the County Council had in their possession the...

 Earthing: A simple (and free) way to reduce pain and inflammationBy Kelly Pepper, D.C., May 5 2012
(NaturalNews) Since the beginning of creation there has been a flow of energy between our bodies and Mother Earth that works to support the various systems in our body and scavenge up free radicals that promote inflammation. More specifically, there is a flow of electrons through direct skin contact with the earth's surface. Our planet has a negative electrical potential that is generated by solar winds, our ionosphere and lightning storms. When our skin is in direct contact with the earth we maintain...
 Fast food diet increases risk of depression by more than fifty percentBy John Phillip, May 5 2012
(NaturalNews) Providing more evidence to the motif 'you are what you eat', scientists have found that eating a fast food diet increases the risk for depression by more than fifty percent. The food we eat today will provide the structural network for the cellular matrix that we need to support basic metabolism, cellular regeneration and repair. This is especially pronounced in brain neurons, as grey matter is largely composed of the omega-3 fats, DHA and EPA. When we don't provide these basic building...

Astonishingly, the two countries with the highest percentage of people who believe in such a thing were Turkey and the USA.
The nations with the lowest number of people believing the world is coming to an end (in their...
 Dangerous glass fibers in cigarettes worsen lung damage for smokersBy S. D. Wells, May 4 2012
(NaturalNews) Shocking new research reveals that a specific type of lung cancer many smokers develop comes from tiny tears in their lung tissue caused by microscopic glass fibers, also known as glass wool, found in many conventional cigarette filters. These rips in the epithelial (soft) tissue fuel the development of tumors and cancerous cells due to the constant overload of toxins, namely pesticides, nicotine and ammonia, contained in commercial cigarette smoke.
The filters of typical commercial...

Health basics: Why homeopathy is rapidly gaining acceptance and credibilityBy S. D. Wells, May 4 2012
(NaturalNews) When it comes to medicine and doctors, most people in America believe that if it's not expensive, it won't work. This theory may hold water when purchasing a new car or an i-phone, but the big profits in America come from invasive surgery and toxic prescriptions, which treat only symptoms, thus waiting for conditions to get extreme and often critical. Alternative medicine, like homeopathy, is becoming main stream, and people are figuring out that the quacks in America are actually the...
 The anti-aging superfood avocadoBy Dr. David Jockers, May 4 2012

Obesity - the epidemic Big Medical loves to hateBy Scott Morefield, May 4 2012
(NaturalNews) Obesity in America is more than just an epidemic, it's the normal state of affairs. Today, 34 percent of Americans are obese (BMI of 30+), triple the 1960 percentage. The ranks of the 'morbidly obese,' or those with a BMI of 40 or more, has swelled to 6 percent, six times the 1960 rate. Another 34 percent are 'merely' overweight. That means a whopping three out of four, or 75 percent of Americans are either overweight, obese, or morbidly obese. What a sad and completely preventable...
 You don't have an inner child - Now what?By Mike Bundrant, May 4 2012
(NaturalNews) Of course you know there is not an actual child inside of you. No little version of yourself is physically stuck in there somewhere, whining, complaining and feeling hurt or afraid. The inner child movement merely suggests that you act as if this were true. If you choose to accept that there is a hurt little kid in there pulling the strings, then all of your errant behavior may suddenly makes sense. You are acting like a child and need justification for it.

Frustrating more than 50 years of bad science that has claimed the exact opposite, Ellison's appraisal of fluoride's negative effects on the body shows once again why...
 Artificial sweeteners and flavor enhancers are dangerousBy Dr. David Jockers, May 3 2012
(NaturalNews) Due to our society's love of sugar, scientists have been able to synthetically produce artificial sweeteners and flavor enhancers. These artificial sweeteners give us the same pleasure as sugar without the calories and dangerous effects on insulin signaling and triglyceride formation. This includes aspartame, acefultame potassium, monosodium glutamate, sucralose and many others. Unfortunately, these artificial sweeteners and flavor enhancers break down into highly toxic chemical agents...
