Articles from NaturalNews In-House Writers:
Understanding the roots of medical dysfunctionBy Larry Malerba, DO, March 25 2011
(NaturalNews) Aside from the obvious fact that modern medicine has devolved into an industry that markets products to medical "consumers," there are a number of more basic problems that must be addressed if the system is ever to be healed. Since those medical products tend to create more sickness than health, it virtually guarantees an endless revolving door of sick consumers in need of more care. The impetus for meaningful medical change must ultimately come from a general public that has become...
Plastic surgeon sets patient on fire during breast augmentation procedure, then blames burn marks on allergic reactionBy Jonathan Benson, March 25 2011
(NaturalNews) A prominent UK doctor is in hot water for allegedly causing a major medical accident and afterward trying to lie about it. According to the UK Daily Mail, Dr. Christina Brunner accidentally lit a patient on fire during a breast augmentation surgery, and as the woman began to wake up, Brunner told her assistants to "extensively dress" the wound and tell the patient that the injury was the result of an allergic reaction.
Brunner performed the breast surgery at London Welbeck Hospital...
 Article updated with new message from the Health RangerBy Mike Adams, March 24 2011

 Lethal in Japan - the real story on radiationBy Mark Sircus., AC, OMD, March 24 2011
The headlines we wake up to Monday morning say: A new column of smoke rising from an overheating nuclear plant in Japan drove workers out of the smoldering site dented hopes for a breakthrough in the post-quake atomic crisis raising the risk of uncontrolled radiation. The World Health Organization said today that radiation in food after an earthquake damaged a Japanese nuclear plant was more serious than previously thought, eclipsing signs of progress in a battle to avert a catastrophic meltdown...

 Think pink to prevent dementia: natural pigment astaxanthin protects brainBy S. L. Baker, March 24 2011
(NaturalNews) It's time to "think pink". No, that's not just the familiar marketing slogan used to promote breast cancer awareness (and, it can be argued, to push the multi-million dollar breast cancer industry). Instead, thinking pink is something that could literally save your brain.
Scientists have documented that daily supplements of the natural pigment astaxanthin reduces the accumulation of compounds called phospholipid hydroperoxides (PLOOH) which are known to accumulate abnormally in the...
 More than 2,000 vaccinated babies died: The cost of doing businessBy Neil Z. Miller, March 24 2011
(NaturalNews) Earlier this month (March 2011), Japanese authorities ordered doctors to stop using pneumococcal and Hib vaccines because four children died after receiving the shots. However, the real news was never reported: more than 2,000 babies died in the United States after receiving vaccines for these very same diseases, yet authorities refuse to warn parents and halt production. A safety review is vital to determine whether a recall of the dangerous shots may be necessary to protect additional...
 The deep psychology behind your healthBy Mike Bundrant, March 24 2011
(NaturalNews) The relationship between psychological health and physical health has long been established. Even most medical doctors today warn against the dangers of mental stress that flows from overwork, chronic family conflict, unhealthy compensating or general maladjustment to the demands of life. This is old news.
The intriguing question now is how does this relationship between mental health and physical health function? When you are stressed out, depressed or confused, how does your body...
 Ohio farmers resist GMOs because non-GMO seeds work betterBy David Gutierrez, March 24 2011
(NaturalNews) Ohio farmers are more reluctant to plant genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in their fields than their counterparts in other Midwestern states, planting nearly 30 percent of their fields with non-modified corn. In contrast, less than 20 percent of corn acreage in Indiana, Illinois and Iowa is planted with non-transgenic seed.
"This year in our Ohio Corn Performance Trials, we tested nearly 40 non-transgenic hybrids, which is the most we've tested in several years," said Peter...
New study - Chinese herbal medicine may treat cancer and rheumatoid arthritisBy Sherry Baker, March 24 2011
(NewsTarget) (NaturalNews) For centuries, traditional Chinese healers have used a medicinal plant usually called thunder god vine, or lei gong teng, as a therapy for a host of health problems including rheumatoid arthritis. Now, in a new report just published in the journal Nature Chemical Biology, scientists from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine have revealed there is solid evidence the plant (known by the botanical name Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F) has potential anti-tumor and other healing...
 Tokyo citizens in panic to buy bottled water as tap faucets spew radiationBy Mike Adams, March 23 2011
(NaturalNews) In the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear power plant catastrophe, radiation levels are now rising in Tokyo's water supply, leading to near-panic among citizens there who have stripped the shelves bare of virtually all bottled water supplies. This was all set in motion by Tokyo officials finally admitting that radiation levels had risen in the water supply beyond the point of safe consumption by infants and toddlers (http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/512fa9fe-5527-11e0-87fe-00144feab49a.html...
India says Monsanto covertly, illegally conducted GM corn trials without approvalBy Jonathan Benson, March 23 2011
(NaturalNews) Recent reports out of India say that multinational biotechnology giant Monsanto has once against skirted the law by clandestinely planting its genetically-modified (GM) corn without receiving approval to do so. Nitish Kumar, chief minister of the Indian state of Bihar, recently wrote a letter to India's environment minister Jairam Ramesh explaining the situation. Just days earlier, Ramesh had denied Monsanto permission to plant the crops at all.
When he discovered that Monsanto had...
USDA refuses to enforce organic standards, allows questionable omega-3s in Horizon organic milk (correction)By Ethan A. Huff, March 22 2011
CORRECTION: The following article originally contained errors that have since been corrected. The life'sDHA omega-3 and omega-6 additives used in some Horizon organic dairy products are NOT derived from genetically-modified (GM) sources. Additionally, these same additives have NOT been extracted using toxic hexane, but rather using 'enzymes.' The hexane-derived life'sDHA omega-3 and omega-6 additives are of a different origin, and are used only in infant formulas. However, the life'sDHA food additive...
Sprouts: An ideal emergency preparedness foodBy Sherry L. Ackerman, Ph.D., March 23 2011
(NaturalNews) Given the rapidity with which critical global events are unfolding, preparedness just makes good sense. The question isn't whether or not to be prepared - it's what to be prepared for? Earthquakes, nuclear accidents, tsunamis, power outages and gasoline shortages have been on this week's menu. Each, of course, has its own specific type of preparedness protocols. But, no matter what kind of unexpected event looms large, there is always a need for food. Food shortages could result from...
Rickets is back as a new "affluence disease"By David Gutierrez, March 23 2011
(NaturalNews) The bone disease rickets, thought to be all but vanquished in the 1940s, is making a comeback in the United Kingdom, doctors have warned.
Rickets is a bone-softening disease caused by vitamin D deficiency. In severe cases, it can lead to deformities that can only be corrected with surgery, such as a bent spine or bowed legs. During the Industrial Revolution, rickets was widespread and was considered a disease of poverty.
The body produces at least 80 percent of its vitamin D upon...
Blinded by ScienceBy Dr. Carolyn Dean, March 14 2011
When I wrote my book, Death by Modern Medicine: Seeking Safe Solutions, I listed the dozen different ways that modern medicine had betrayed the public. It's a book that exposes all that's evil and corrupt about modern medicine. But recently I found a book that might take us beyond the betrayal.
Go to http://www.blindedbyscience.co.uk to receive a download of this book called Blinded by Science. It's free until April 30, 2011 and I'm in love with it because it's so brilliant!

Study says safflower oil helps prevent heart disease, reduce inflammationBy Jonathan Benson, March 23 2011
(NaturalNews) A diet supplemented with a daily dose of safflower oil may help improve insulin sensitivity, lower blood sugar, elevate "good" cholesterol, lower inflammation, and ultimately prevent heart disease, says a new study out of Ohio State University (OSU). Researchers there noted considerable improvement among obese, postmenopausal women with type-2 diabetes who took roughly 1 2/3 teaspoons of safflower oil a day for 16 weeks.
Martha Belury and her colleagues from OSU originally tested...
Beyond psychotherapy: Amazing applications of mind-body medicineBy Len Saputo, March 23 2011
(NaturalNews) There is an epidemic of anxiety and depression. Today's world is filled with emotional challenge. How many families do you know that aren't dysfunctional? And who do you know that has not spent time with a counselor, psychologist, or psychiatrist at some time in their life? In some circles it is almost a status symbol to be in psychotherapy! And, it is not unusual to be in therapy for years. We keep our trusted therapists very busy!
We have a wide range of possible therapies to treat...
 Doctors use Fukushima-like radiation to "treat" thyroid disordersBy Mike Adams, March 22 2011
(NaturalNews) Japan has been reporting for several days that much of the raw milk being produced in the Fukushima province is now radioactive. This raises today's quiz question: If the FDA were operating in Japan, what would they do about this raw, radioactive milk?
Answer: They would seize it because it's RAW, not because it's radioactive.
After all, it is the FDA that has long supported the mass irradiation of the food supply as a way to sterilize it and "kill pathogens." The food irradiation...
 TSA to retest airport body scanners after reports expose extreme radiation safety violationsBy Jonathan Benson, March 22 2011
(NaturalNews) After repeatedly refusing to publicly release safety reports for its airport X-ray machines and naked body scanners -- even after lawmakers ordered their release -- the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) now says that the same reports are flawed anyway (http://www.naturalnews.com/031321_naked_body_scanners_safety.html). TSA insists data showing that some naked body scanners emit as much as ten times more radiation than normal is a "math error," and that a retest will be...
 'Dying to Have Known' documentary features Gerson Therapy natural cancer cureBy Ethan A. Huff, March 22 2011
(NaturalNews) The small California town of Oakhurst recently had several screenings of the 2006 film Dying to Have Known, a well-done and highly-informative documentary by esteemed filmmaker Steve Kroschel that explores the evidence and effectiveness of the infamous Gerson Therapy in treating and curing cancer naturally. Dr. Carl Bosco, a practicing naturopathic doctor for 35 years, organized the viewings of the film, which highlights numerous individual cases of cancers cured using Gerson Therapy...
 Apples could hold key for increasing lifespanBy S. L. Baker, March 22 2011
(NaturalNews) Sure, apples are delicious and healthy. And, as NaturalNews has previously reported, there is a growing body of evidence showing apples fight cancer. In fact, half a dozen studies published by Rui Hai Liu, Cornell associate professor of food science and a member of Cornell's Institute for Comparative and Environmental Toxicology, have found eating apples is an especially powerful way to prevent breast cancer(http://www.naturalnews.com/025685_cancer_apple_breast.html#ixzz1GVeFJLRu).

 Psychiatric drug industry driven by wealth and stealth, not mental healthBy Monica G. Young, March 22 2011
(NaturalNews) Drug company corporate websites tell us of their integrity and utmost commitment to people's health and well-being. The American Psychiatric Association's website begins with "Healthy Minds. Healthy Lives" and asserts the "highest ethical standards of professional conduct." Yet a mountain of evidence points to an entirely different picture.
Most recently, thirty-eight state attorneys won a $68.5 million settlement with pharmaceutical titan AstraZeneca for unlawful marketing of antipsychotic...
The dose is the poisonBy Jane Goldberg, March 22 2011
(NaturalNews) The principle of hormesis has been understood for centuries: large and small doses evoke opposite effects. As far back as the 1400s, physician Paracelsus understood that dose is the difference between cure and danger: "The dose makes the poison." In the 1880s Rudolf Arndt and Hugo Schultz demonstrated that substances vary in action depending on whether the concentration is high, medium, or low; high concentrations kill, medium concentrations suppress or inhibit, and low or minute concentrations...

(NaturalNews) Here's the latest on the Fukushima nuclear power plant incident in Japan:
• Releases of radiation from the Fukushima nuclear power plant are "now significant and continuing" said Andre-Claude Lacoste, said the head of France's Nuclear Safety Authority (ASN). (http://news.asiaone.com/News/Latest%2BNews/Asia/Story/A1Story20110321-269333.html)
• A "grayish smoke" cloud was observed coming from the roof of Reactor No. 3, causing an evacuation of all the workers there while...
 Japanese government admits potassium iodide pills should have been distributed earlierBy Mike Adams, March 21 2011
(NaturalNews) A Japanese nuclear safety official has now publicly admitted the Japanese government improperly withheld potassium iodide from the public for three days following the Fukushima power plant explosion. Kazuma Yokota says the Japanese government was "caught off guard" by the nuclear catastrophe and didn't realize its people needed potassium iodide until three days later.
Associated Press distributed this statement, which has been carried by hundreds of mainstream news organizations...
