CT Scans: A Source of Medically Induced Cancer

Does it upset anybody to know that 1000 cases of cancer per year are needlessly caused in children by the very doctors who the children are seeing for help? An additional 4000 cases of cancer are caused in children each year under the pretense that taking a picture of the child’s internal body is medically necessary. The frequency of cancer in the adult population from CT scans is 10-20 times the number for children (10,000-20,000 needless cases of cancer plus an additional 40,000-80,000 “justified” cases of cancer).

Thyroid Cancer Mysteriously on the Rise

Scientists appear befuddled by the 6.5% yearly jump in thyroid cancer – the only cancer in the U.S. on a rapid and surprising rate of incline. Let me help them out, the widespread contamination of the food supply with perchlorate is most likely the main reason – along with general pollution and too many CT scans.

Chernobyl Still Haunts

The devastating long-term adverse health effects of radiation exposure is made painfully clear in a new study following the health of Latvian clean-up workers of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident of 1986. There is a significant increase in mortality rate compared to the general population. Those still living have an average of ten different diseases or medical conditions, accelerated aging from free radical damage, autoimmune disease, immunologic incompetence, and very high rates of thyroid, prostate, and stomach cancer.

Iodine, Tocotrienols, Berries, and Lipoic Acid to Protect Against Radiation Exposure

The unfolding events relating to Japan’s damaged nuclear reactors is raising the concern in the U.S. of a worst-case scenario of a meltdown with a consequent cloud of radioactive particles following the jet stream over to the U.S. The prevailing jet stream winds would impact Los Angeles to Alaska, and would include Hawaii. Radioactive pollution would reach the U.S. within 36 hours. It would then travel the typical jet stream across the U.S that you see on your daily weather programs. While we all hope this problem does not happen, and various experts may debate the severity of public health issues involved if it should, it never hurts to have a better understanding of the subject. What would you do if such a cloud was headed your way?
