Radiation is Already Killing BabiesBy Mark Sircus., AC, OMD, June 17 2011
(NaturalNews) Newborn babies are the most vulnerable of all beings. Vulnerability says it all when it comes to a newborn infant. Children deserve the best medical treatment from the best form of medicine human intelligence can implement but what they get is governmental interference and neglect. Below we see the first information coming in that the radiation that the government is saying is safe and harmless and of very low concentration is already killing babies on the west coast of the United States...
 TSA targets special needs traveler with invasive pat-down, confiscates his 'comfort' item as security threatBy Ethan A. Huff, June 17 2011
(NaturalNews) The US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) continues its reign of terror against innocent Americans, this time aggressively targeting a special needs traveler out of Houston, Tex., who was on his way to Disney World with his family. According to My Fox Houston, TSA agents patted down, questioned, and confiscated the "comfort" item of 29-year-old Drew Mandy, a severely handicapped man -- an act that the agency later admitted was a serious "case of bad judgment."
After giving...
 Coconut Oil for Alzheimer'sBy Dr. Carolyn Dean, June 14 2011
(NaturalNews) My world is full of coconuts, including coconut oil and coconut milk. That's not unusual because I live on Maui. But I'm happily seeing coconut oil all over the internet as the treatment for dozens of conditions and possibly hundreds of symptoms.
My first clue as to the wonders of coconut oil came during my AIDS research in New York in the very early 1990's. Anecdotal reports started to pop up throughout the AIDS community about miraculous cures using coconut oil. To my mind, that's...
Obama administration gives green light for GMOs to be planted in national wildlife refugesBy Ethan A. Huff, June 17 2011
(NaturalNews) A battle is raging over whether or not it should be legal to plant genetically-modified (GM) crops in US wildlife refuges. A little over a month after various conservation and food safety groups achieved a unified legal victory that banned all future plantings of GMOs in refuges, the Obama administration announced its full-fledged support for GMOs in refuges. And the administration is now working towards ramrodding through a new plan that would exempt the issue of GMO plantings in refuges...
Stop legalization of GMOs in Bolivia by sending this urgent letterBy Ethan A. Huff, June 17 2011
(NaturalNews) South America is home to a diverse array of unique plants and food crops, which collectively have fed and sustained many generations of natives, as well as those to whom such goods have been exported over the years. Sadly, much of that biodiversity is being squelched by the introduction of genetically-modified (GM) cash crops like corn and soy, which now dominate much of the agricultural land in countries like Brazil and Argentina. And Bolivia, which has been moving towards becoming...
 Apple assumes role of Big Brother by developing patent to automatically disable iPhone cameras at concerts (and police or government abuse incidents?)By Ethan A. Huff, June 17 2011
(NaturalNews) As annoying as many are, the steady stream of garbled, shaky video clips of musical concert performances that get uploaded to YouTube every day could become a thing of the past, at least for Apple iPhone users. According to a recent report from Business Insider, Apple has filed a patent for new technology that is capable of automatically disabling iPhones from being able to video record live concerts, which in turn prevents users from violating copyright laws by eventually sharing such...
 US unfunded liabilities reaches record $61.6 trillion as nation heads into bankruptcy collapseBy J. D. Heyes, June 17 2011
(NaturalNews) They began with the passage of the Social Security Act under Depression-era President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the 1930s but grew dramatically when Medicare and Medicaid legislation under Lyndon B. Johnson was passed in the 1960s. More recently, George W. Bush and Barack Obama expanded them even further when they pushed for huge new prescription drug benefits and near-universal healthcare, respectively.
What are they? Unfunded government liabilities and they have grown to unimaginable...
 In partial victory against GMOs, U.S. Congress bans FDA from approving GM salmonBy Mike Adams, June 16 2011
(NaturalNews) The U.S. House of Representatives passed a law today that would effectively bar the FDA from approving GM salmon. This is a direct result of the rising awareness of the dangers of GMOs among American consumers, along with steady coverage of the issue by the alternative media (including NaturalNews) and the efforts of Jeffrey Smith from ResponsibleTechnology.org
For months, the FDA has seemed on the verge of approving GM salmon. They claim it's no different than regular salmon and...
 True fact: A common ingredient in commercial breads is derived from human hair harvested in ChinaBy Mike Adams, June 16 2011
(NaturalNews) If you read the ingredients label on a loaf of bread, you will usually find an ingredient listed there as L-cysteine. This is a non-essential amino acid added to many baked goods as a dough conditioner in order to speed industrial processing. It's usually not added directly to flour intended for home use, but you'll find it throughout commercial breads such as pizza dough, bread rolls and pastries.
While some L-cysteine is directly synthesized in laboratories, most of it is extracted...
 Low-carb diet may reverse kidney failure in diabetics, says new researchBy Nicole Parsons, June 16 2011
(NaturalNews) A new study shows that a low carbohydrate, high fat diet, used typically to treat and control seizures in children with epilepsy, may reverse kidney failure in people with diabetes.
Researchers from Mount Sinai School of Medicine have found that the ketogenic (low carbs, high fat) diet is useful as many cells can get energy from ketones.
Ketones are molecules produced when the blood glucose levels are low and blood fat levels are high. It has been shown that when cells use ketones...
 World leaders denounce failed war on drugs; call for global decriminalizationBy Neev M. Arnell, June 16 2011
(NaturalNews) The "War on Drugs" is a failure, with devastating consequences around the world, and it is time to decriminalize drugs and start treating drug problems as health issues, said a group of prominent former world leaders in a new report released June 1.
"Fifty years after the initiation of the UN Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, and 40 years after President (Richard) Nixon launched the US government's war on drugs, fundamental reforms in national and global drug control policies...
 Japanese scientist creates edible meat alternative made from recycled human wasteBy Ethan A. Huff, June 16 2011
(NaturalNews) If you think meatless, genetically-modified (GM) soy food products are a poor alternative to real meat, wait until you see the latest in vegetarian meat replacement technology. According to a recent Inhabitat report, Japanese researcher Mitsuyuki Ikeda has developed a new kind of meatless burger made from soy, steak sauce essence, and -- brace yourself -- protein matter extracted from human excrement.
Ikeda's poop burger is literally derived from "sewage mud," which is just a nice...
 Magnesium Helps Heal Cipro DamageBy Dr. Carolyn Dean, June 13 2011
(NaturalNews) Even though I've been hearing magnesium miracle stories for a decade, here's a magnesium testimonial from a reader of my blog that amazed even me.
First of all, I have to set the stage. Many of you may not know that a certain family of antibiotics called flouroquinolone causes muscle and tendon damage. We take an antibiotic hoping it will kill a bacteria that's infecting us. We might expect some digestive problems with antibiotics -but tendon and muscle damage doesn't enter our heads...
 Robberies on the rise at pharmacies as drug addicts pull weapons to get their fixBy Jonathan Benson, June 16 2011
(NaturalNews) Forget robbing banks. Whether it is to satisfy their own addiction or to make big bucks on the black market, drug addicts and criminals alike are increasingly targeting local pharmacies for prescription painkillers like OxyContin which have become the new drugs of choice for many addicts who now prefer them over street drugs like heroin and cocaine. And since a 60-pill bottle of OxyContin is worth as much as $5,000 on the black market, some thieves who would otherwise try to rob banks...
 Study: Drinking too much coffee can spur drug-like hallucinationsBy Jonathan Benson, June 16 2011
(NaturalNews) Most people have probably either heard, or even made, various tongue-in-cheek references to coffee being a type of drug, but a new study out of La Trobe University in Australia has determined that the popular beverage basically is one. Drinking coffee can actually cause people to experience hallucinations where they either hear or see things that are not really there, the team found.
Prof. Simon Crowe and his team from La Trobe tested the effects of coffee on 92 participants, all...
 US, UK to cut national power supplies in preparation for massive solar stormsBy Jonathan Benson, June 16 2011
(NaturalNews) Periodic solar events involving solar flares, coronal mass ejections (CME), and geomagnetic storms, are capable of disrupting and damaging transformers, radio equipment, and even entire power grids, depending on their strength. In the event of a massive Category 5 solar storm, which is the most severe type and the type experts say may hit the earth very soon, electrical and radio systems could be completely destroyed. This has prompted officials from both the United Kingdom and United...

I've been working with NaturalNews Talk Hour host Jonathan Landsman for several months now to put together a new subscription that delivers a robust collection of knowledge about reversing serious disease including cancer, diabetes, depression, heart disease, osteoporosis, hormonal disorders and a lot more.
This new subscription, which we call the "Inner Circle," features the entire audio archives of the complete Talk Hour series...
 Vaccination: The pet controversyBy Celeste Yarnall, June 15 2011
(NaturalNews) In the history of human vaccines, the numbers clearly show that in every case, the disease itself was already on the decline when the vaccine was introduced. Most vaccines were scarcely a blip on the radar, not affecting the natural decline of the disease at all. In a few unfortunate cases such as polio, the disease actually increased after vaccinations began.
For example, when people contract measles, their overall immune system is strengthened in response to the mild challenge...
 New report: Regulators knew Roundup caused birth defectsBy Neev M. Arnell, June 9 2011
(NaturalNews) Regulators have known since 1980 that Roundup, the herbicide manufactured by U.S. company Monsanto, causes birth defects, and have done nothing to make the information public, according to a new report released June 7 (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/07/roundup-birth-defects-herbicide-regulators_n_872862.html).
The report, "Roundup and birth defects: Is the public being kept in the dark?" by Earth Open Source, found that regulators knew the chemical on which Roundup is based...
 Greedy medical specialists refuse to treat most children with serious health problems if they have public insuranceBy S. L. Baker, June 15 2011
(NaturalNews) Doctors are refusing to help sick kids -- or delaying their treatment for weeks to months -- if the children don't have private insurance. That's because private insurance pays docs bigger bucks in reimbursements than the public kind of insurance like Medicaid. What makes this startling finding especially disgusting is that the physicians in question are specialists needed by youngsters who are seriously ill.
These facts were just revealed in an audit study conducted by researchers...
 Cops ticket women for sitting on park bench and eating doughnutsBy Ethan A. Huff, June 15 2011
(NaturalNews) Long gone are the days of common-sense courtesy when the average police officer actually took the time to consider the unique nature of minor law violations, and use his or her best judgment to decide whether a warning or a citation was most appropriate. New York City police officers recently issued tickets and court summons to two women who decided to sit for a few moments on a bench at a Brooklyn playground and eat a few doughnuts -- all because they were illegally unaccompanied by...
 The entitlement economy: $2 million lottery winner still collects food stampsBy J. D. Heyes, June 15 2011
(NaturalNews) Once upon a time in America, people were embarrassed to accept hand-outs, especially from the government. Depression-era heavyweight champion boxer James Braddock, when he finally began earning money again in the ring after a long draught, actually paid back the relief money he was given while he was out of work for a few years.
Not anymore. Nowadays tens of millions of Americans make their living with taxpayer-funded handouts, and unabashedly so. In fact, the entitlement mentality...
 Record Midwest flooding to create largest ever 'dead zone' in Gulf of Mexico, more storms and levee releases on the wayBy Ethan A. Huff, June 15 2011
(NaturalNews) The US Midwest continues to get slammed by heavy rains and winter snow melt that have swelled the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers, and left countless thousands of acres of the plains under water. Many towns and cities along the Missouri River in Nebraska, Iowa, and even up into the Dakotas and Montana, are now threatened by new flooding caused by levee breaches and more rains expected to hit in the coming days. Worse, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) supported...
 Why do professional athletes suffer needlessly from brain and bodily injuries?By Savely Yurkovsky, MD, June 15 2011
(NaturalNews) We all have addictions - some to sweets, others to sports. For me, as for many of us, it's the latter. The 'good' reason for this is that sports offers us great fun to watch and it helps us to relax - a winning combo that is hard to beat. Strangely enough, the longer we are being immersed in having fun and relaxation, the more we experience surges of palpitations and in blood pressure, face contortions and heartburn, notwithstanding bursts of tribal-like sounds and words for which we...
 New air purifier technology removes 99% of indoor allergensBy Neev M. Arnell, June 15 2011
(NaturalNews) A consumer version of the air purification technology used in hospitals, governmental agencies and other high-traffic buildings is now available to home and small-business owners.
Unlike many air purification systems that filter the air, the Guardian Air REME+ air purifier generates Ionized Hydro-Peroxides that neutralize impurities on contact, just like in nature.
"It's going to change the way people live in their homes," says Dr. Edward F. Group, an expert on green lifestyle...
 National Cancer Institute and American Cancer Society skewered in new book by leading cancer expertBy Neev M. Arnell, June 14 2011
(NaturalNews) A new book by leading cancer expert, Dr. Samuel S. Epstein, skewers the National Cancer Institute and American Cancer Society and blames the organizations for America losing the war against cancer.
In the book, "National Cancer Institute and American Cancer Society: Criminal Indifference to Cancer Prevention and Conflicts of Interest," Epstein argues that the NCI and ACS have spent tens of billions of taxpayer and charity dollars focusing on treatment to the exclusion of prevention...
 Secret GM wheat experiments begin in AustraliaBy Neev M. Arnell, June 8 2011
(NaturalNews) Australia's first trial of genetically modified wheat and barley is under way near Narrabri, New South Wales in the south-eastern area of the country. The goal of the GM wheat is said to be more nutritious bread (http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/gm-wheat-trial-begins-amid-secrecy-20110527-1f8hl.html).
How exactly the genes were altered to create this alleged more nutritious bread remains a secret. All that is known is that 14 different strains of wheat and barley will be grown. Some strains...
 US government spends millions administering street drugs to monkeys in the name of researchBy Ethan A. Huff, June 14 2011
(NaturalNews) Government abuse and waste of taxpayer dollars takes many forms. Perhaps one of the most outrageous is the countless millions that are spent in the form of grants that fund "scientific research."
A recent report by CNS News explains that, just in the past decade, the US National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has spent more than $3.6 million on research involving the administration of street drugs like cocaine and heroin to...
 Deadly fungus killing Joplin tornado survivors, rescue workersBy Jonathan Benson, June 14 2011
(NaturalNews) Cleanup and rescue efforts are not the only major concern in the wake of the recent mega-tornado that ravaged Joplin, Mo., and various nearby areas. Recent reports indicate that zygomycosis, a rare but deadly fungal infection, is afflicting both injured victims that have open wounds, and even some rescue workers that are contracting it from tainted debris.
According to the Springfield News-Leader, there have been nine confirmed cases of infection from the fungus, and at least four...
Dodging Radioactive BulletsBy Mark Sircus., AC, OMD, June 14 2011
(NaturalNews) We have always needed love but today more than ever we will need love to sustain us. The world is becoming increasingly hostile and toxic and now with radiation levels going up dramatically we have all kinds of new issues to face. Even the act of intercourse needs to be understood in a new light for the chances of us being sterile and the chances of us bringing into the world a deformed child are going to increase dramatically.
Those with open hearts stay young forever.

 The moon makes you fatterBy Matthew Silverstone, June 14 2011
(NaturalNews) Have you ever noticed your weight fluctuating for no apparent reason? On some days you put on extra pounds even though you haven't eaten anything fattening, on other days your weight drops dramatically. A new theory suggests that this change is due to the moons influence.
It has been known since roman times that the moon affects the water content in fruit. Pliny the Elder writing in AD 63 stated that it was best to pick fruits on specific days of the month if you wanted them to be...
Yoga guru calls for civilian 'army' of 11,000 to fight against government corruptionBy Jonathan Benson, June 14 2011
(NaturalNews) Increasing police brutality and government corruption in India has prompted popular television yoga guru Swami Ramdev to both go on a hunger strike, and call for 11,000 men and women to rise up and join his new "army," which he plans to train in combat skills to defend against police or other government authorities that try to attack him or his followers.
"They must be dedicated, ready to make the ultimate sacrifice," said Ramdev, concerning the caliber of soldiers he hopes to recruit...
Genesis Today donates truckloads of superfruit beverages to children in needBy Neev M. Arnell, June 14 2011
(NaturalNews) Superfoods company Genesis Today announced a new partnership with Feed the Children on June 10 to benefit victims of recent tornadoes.
Genesis Today, one of the nation's fastest-growing healthy food and beverage companies, will donate $286,000 worth of its superfruit juices and teas to Feed the Children, an international Christian nonprofit relief organization that delivers food, medicine, clothing and other items to people in war-torn, poverty-stricken and disaster-affected areas...
Japan not hit by 9.0 quake? False flag nuclear weaponry actually destroyed Fukushima, claims reportBy Ethan A. Huff, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) What if the alleged 9.0+ magnitude mega earthquake that was said to have hit off the coast of Japan back on March 11 never actually happened, and the resultant tsunami that destroyed the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant was actually a deliberate, false flag attack using nuclear weapons? Freelance journalist Jim Stone offers compelling evidence that the official story we have all been told concerning the disaster is a phony coverup for a concerted attack against Japan, possibly for offering...
 Stealth Vaccine Laws Allow Children to Consent to VaccinesBy Alan Phillips, J.D., June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) A current California bill, AB 499, would "allow a minor who is 12 years of age or older to consent to medical care related to the prevention of a sexually transmitted disease."[1] That is, children as young as 12 will be able to get a Gardasil or other STD vaccine without their parents' knowledge or consent if this bill passes. Disturbingly, North Carolina has a much broader child consent law already on the books: "Any minor may give effective consent . . . for medical health services...
 Doctor indicted for falsely diagnosing patients with HIV and defrauding MedicareBy Jonathan Benson, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) At a cost of up to $15,000 a year, the antiretroviral drugs used for treating HIV and AIDS are a big money-maker for drug companies. But apparently they are also a good choice for corrupt doctors who are illegally trying to make a quick buck off the US Medicare system. A federal investigation has revealed that Dr. Suresh Hemrajani of Manhattan, NY, falsely diagnosed about 150 patients with HIV, and billed Medicare for $700,000 worth of phony prescribed treatments.
According to the...
 Complication from spinal product omitted from studies, reasearches have financial ties to product's producerBy Neev M. Arnell, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) In a study released Wednesday, a Stanford University surgeon said that one of Medtronic's best-selling spinal products can cause a condition which results in male sterility. The finding contradicts earlier research by doctors with financial ties to Medtronic, who did not find a connection between Infuse, the spinal product, and sterility. (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/25/business/25spine.html)
According to a study, men treated with Medtronic's Infuse product during spine surgery...
 Thomas Jefferson was America's most famous anti-government revolutionaryBy J. D. Heyes, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) "A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government."
One of the most influential of our nation's founding fathers was Thomas Jefferson, to whom the above quote is attributed and the man who was the primary author of the Declaration of Independence. Perhaps more than any other American founding father, Jefferson...
 Develop a Retirement Health Plan: It's Never too Early (or too Late)By Randall Neustaedter OMD, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) If you are planning to retire, will you be healthy enough to enjoy retirement? This should be a time of pleasure, travel, getting involved in those hobbies you have postponed, and fostering relationships with loved ones. All the things you have wanted to do all these years. You don't want to be suffering with chronic symptoms or have your health deteriorating. And only you are in control of your health.
The major problem with aging is inflammation, and inflammation is promoted by...
 Tennessee passes law criminalizing posting of any image that someone finds offensiveBy J. D. Heyes, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) Just when you thought lawmaking in America couldn't get any more ridiculous comes a new piece of legislation that quite possibly could be the most outrageous, if not unconstitutional law ever passed.
The geniuses in the Tennessee legislature passed a bill which makes it a crime to "transmit or display an image" online that is likely to "frighten, intimidate or cause emotional distress" to anyone who sees it. Gov. Bill Haslam perpetuated the idiocy when he signed it into law last...
 Article updated with new message from the Health RangerBy Mike Adams, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) The article which originally appeared here has been removed because it is no longer aligned with the science-based investigative mission of Natural News. In late 2013 / early 2014, Mike Adams (the Health Ranger), editor of Natural News, transitioned from outspoken activist to environmental scientist. He now runs the Natural News Forensic Food Lab, conducting world-class food science research and publishing scientific papers on food contaminants and nutritional analytics.

 The pesticide atrocity of Nicaragua: Nemagon survivors seek justice after being poisonedBy Kaitlyn Moore, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) Dow, BASF, Bayer, Syngenta, DuPont, and Monsanto form an agrichemical conglomerate that manufacture some of the most dangerous chemicals in the world. (http://www.panna.org/issues/pesticides-profit/chemical-cartel)
Third world countries tend to be the most susceptible to the witches brew of chemicals. Twenty-five percent of the world's pesticides are used in third world countries and it this is where over 99% of pesticide related deaths occur.

 EPA gave over a million dollars in grant money to ChinaBy J. D. Heyes, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) In an age when the U.S. government is spending the nation into oblivion, it never ceases to amaze us to learn of the new and inventive ways Washington can dispose of your tax dollars.
In a report published last week, Cybercast New Service said the Environmental Protection Agency gave more than $1.2 million to China in the form of six grants "most of which pertained to researching methane in Chinese coal mines and reducing carbon emissions..."
And, in the true political spirit...
 Connecticut lessens penalties for marijuana possessionBy Jonathan Benson, June 12 2011
(NaturalNews) The federal government's phony "war on drugs" is slowly being deconstructed by individual states that are deciding to lessen penalties for, or flat-out decriminalize, the possession of marijuana. This week, Connecticut became the 13th U.S. state to at least partially decriminalize marijuana when it passed SB 1014, a bill that lessens the punishment for being caught possessing marijuana from a criminal offense to a lesser infraction.
In a vote of 90 to 57, the Connecticut House voted...
Let's Round Up the RoundUp (Opinion)By Hesh Goldstein, June 11 2011
(NaturalNews) We all know that RoundUp is Monsanto's cash crop. What all of us may not know is that ALL GMOs are designed to withstand enormous quantities of RoundUp. Why? So Monsanto can spray the heck out of all GMOs, killing all weeds and subsequently sickening and poisoning the "tricks" (us) thereby greatly benefitting Big Pharma ( the Pimp) and the medical profession (the Hookers).
Before getting into what I want to get into let me inform you of something. Recently, in Hawaii, our Senate...
