Viral Induced Obesity

The Washington Post reports on recent intriguing work linking obesity to viral infection. Scientists isolated adult stem cells from fat that had been extracted during liposuction. Such stem cells can potentially turn into many different cells. Culturing these stem cells with the common adenovirus-36 (Ad-36), which causes respiratory and eye infections, caused new fat cells to form which were also more active than normal fat cells at promoting fat storage. Stem cells not exposed to the virus did not form into fat cells.

Pollution is One Major Cause of Diabetes and Obesity

In the January 25, 2008 issue of the Lancet an article appears, which if followed up on, would positively change the health of all Americans for generations to come. The article is titled Environmental pollution and diabetes: a neglected association. It is based on a solid scientific link between insulin resistance and pollution, especially compounds like PCBs and many pesticides used on food.

Parkinson’s Clearly Linked to Pesticide Exposure

In patients with Parkinson’s 76% have elevated levels of a pesticide called beta-HCH (hexachlorocyclohexane), compared to 40% of controls. Pesticide exposure has been implicated as a Parkinson’s risk factor for some time, but this is the first study linking a specific pesticide to Parkinson’s disease

Silymarin Protects Your Brain & Kidneys

Silymarin (milk thistle extract) is widely regarded as a superior liver-protecting nutrient. Since your liver and brain are the two fattiest organs in your body, it is not surprising that silymarin is now gaining a reputation as a superior protector of your brain. It is also showing its potential to protect your kidneys.

Common Herbicide Found Toxic to Human Metabolism

After 60 years of worldwide use we now come to learn that the most widely used herbicide in the world is toxic to human metabolism. The herbicide, 2,4-D (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) is used for broadleaf weed control on crops such as cereal grains, corn, and lawn products. Over 1500 herbicide products use 2,4-D as an active ingredient. It is now implicated as a contributing factor for obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome.

Presidential Panel Warns of Grievous Harm & Increased Cancer Risk from Toxins

For decades the FDA and EPA have essentially been run by the industries they are supposed to regulate. A new 240-page report outlines the serious health threat of these chemicals to all Americans, claiming that their former role in cancer has been grossly underestimated and needlessly devastate American lives. I have argued for many years that all the toxic chemicals Americans are exposed to on a regular basis amounts to Russian roulette with your gene weaknesses, a bizarre game of genetic survival of the fittest.

Pollution Worsens Obesity Epidemic

A new study shows that fetal and early life exposure to environmental toxins, oftentimes consumed by the mother as part of her diet, are adequate to induce excess fat storage in a baby. While there are numerous studies demonstrating how pollution interferes with metabolism, this study enables me to explain a slightly different point: your body will form fat as a defense mechanism against being poisoned by toxins.

The Highly Pathogenic E. Coli Genie is Out of the Bottle – Can You Withstand an Attack?

The tactics are straight out of the terrorist textbook. A wave of suicide bombers hits the front line defensive fortifications. Most of this first wave blows holes in the defensive barriers and leaves a battlefield of inflammatory damage and debris. Some of these first wave terrorists hijack important communication systems relating to the natural defense mechanisms. If these defense mechanisms fail invasion of the body is certain. Rather than that, the defense mechanisms, faced with impending doom, are forced to allow an inflammatory diarrhea response. But wait, the second wave of the terrorist attack is now under way. They are taking advantage of the damaged battlefield of the first wave of attack. They are armed with highly toxic chemical weapons, the type that is banned from “humane warfare.” Welcome to the world of infectious E. coli. And in Germany, welcome to the world of superbug infectious E. coli – resistant to antibiotics and armed with some of the most devastating toxins ever known.
