![](http://www.naturalnews.com/gallery/Webseed/Prescription.jpg) FDA Beefs Up Warning of Serious Tendon Injury From Antibiotic CiproBy Barbara L. Minton, August 4 2008 (NewsTarget) The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has asked manufacturers of antibiotics in the fluoroquinolone family, the most widely known of which is Cipro, to strengthen warnings that taking the antibiotics increases the risk of tendinitis or tendon rupture. It has been known since 2001 that use of Cipro could result in devastating side effects, but doctors have continued to prescribe the drug with little hesitation.
The fluoroquinolone drugs, prescribed for a variety of microbial infections...

Minton, August 2 2008 (NewsTarget) That giant sucking sound so colorfully described by Ross Perot is heard again this season as companies large and small relocate, close their operations or negotiate for lower wages. While the usual suspect, Mexico, continues to drain employment from workers in the U.S. and Canada, competition to attract relocating plants has intensified in other developing countries as China leads the way in the downward wage spiral.
Among the season's list of casualties are 750 jobs at the Dayton...

Minton, August 2 2008 (NewsTarget) The global food crisis won't go away any time soon. Capitalism has the average consumer by the belly. Amid growing signs of famine and outrage, the entire chain of commodities and resources of the world are now being cornered by giant corporations. Farmland, water, fertilizer, seed, energy, and most of the basic necessities of life are falling under corporate control, providing increased wealth and power to the ruling elite while the rest of humanity struggles.

I'll tell you the story and let you decide. It all started when a friend mentioned I should visit Mitzner Park, a famous plaza in the Eastern section of Boca Raton, Florida. I thought it would be a good place to film some poi spinning (see below) against a city backdrop, so we parked nearby and strolled into the park, only to find that it was inundated with a strange...

Minton, August 1 2008 (NewsTarget) Flax oil and flax seeds have been shown to lower blood cholesterol and triglycerides, and to help reduce damage to cell membranes. Flax is also important in the body's ability to reduce inflammation and prevent the many degenerative diseases associated with it. Studies have shown that women with a high intake of flax oil and flax lignans are at much lower risk of developing breast cancer. Research is now documenting the benefits of flax oil, lignans, and flax meal in preventing and treating...

Health Freedom Advocate Says Criminalizing Cigarettes is a MistakeBy Mike Adams, July 31 2008 (NaturalNews) The U.S. Congress has just voted to categorize tobacco as a drug, handing the FDA regulatory authority to control the advertising, marketing and sales of cigarettes. This hilarious move, if approved by the Senate and signed by the President, would put the FDA in the position of approving the sale of a "drug" that the entire medical community openly admits kills millions of people. According to the CDC, tobacco kills 438,000 people each year in the United States alone (1). Now, thanks...

![](http://www.naturalnews.com/gallery/Webseed/Money.jpg) EPA Reduces Value of Human LifeBy Jo Hartley, July 31 2008 (NewsTarget) Were you aware that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regularly estimates the "value of statistical life?" Five years ago the EPA estimated the value of one human life to be $7.8 million and as of May, 2008 the estimation was $6.9 million for one human life. This is almost a $1 million decrease over the last five years.
Can we label this a simple bureaucratic calculation with little importance or might this devaluation have significant consequences for the American people...

It's called www.VegGuide.org and you can use it to search for vegetarian, vegan or raw restaurants in most cities. Check it out to find these restaurants in your areas.
By the way, here's a warning for you on "vegetarian" restaurants: Most vegetarian restaurants use veggie foods loaded with MSG. It's true! Even they don't know their foods...

Minton, July 30 2008 (NewsTarget) How did the powerful gain power over the rest of us? In a time when the power and freedom of the average American is being eroded at terrific speed, many of us wonder how this could be happening. What we may not realize it that the powerful have specific tools or principles to use to con the rest of us into surrendering our power to them. One of the most effective principles used in the last several years with great success is the Hegelian Principle.
