Evidence: Collusion, Conflict of Interest at FDA and Aspartame
There are more than 67 articles here at Natural Health News concerning the products and problems with artificial sweeteners.
Here is something new to consider: During Ronald Reagan's tenure in the White House he selected Arthur Hull Hayes as FDA Commissioner.
Even though aspartame had been on the market in 1974, it was banned in 1975 because of testimony by John Olney MD, a neurologist. Dr, Olney's work raised issues about the safety of aspartame and brain cell damage. The cancer issue was also raised.
With 92 allowed adverse reactions to aspartame at the FDA, even though more have been reported, we know there is a problem. After all, aspartame, like sucralose, began as a pesticide with very sweet taste.
Reagan like Diet Pepsi just like Michael J. Fox. Fox has Parkinson's and Reagan died from Alzheimer's. Both diagnoses are known to be related to aspartame exposure.
Now, as exposed by Lane Shore, we know Arthur Hull Hayes is listed as one of the inventors of aspartame.
From McGill's Choice (Salem Press), Inventions and Inventors: Volume I, noted under "Aspartame".
Bodybuilding Venue Tips
When considering a full bodybuilding routine, you need to consider first a few important points to make sure that you’ll be able to put full focus and attention to your goal of gaining weight and increasing your body appearance. Above everything else, it’s always necessary to check the place where you’ll be spending your bodybuilding training moments.
First, you need to think about the venue where you can conduct your bodybuilding exercises. It has to be where you feel most comfortable in executing exercise routines. Commercial gyms are one place where you can take advantage of the different gym equipment. You probably won’t have any problem in executing ideal exercises in gyms since there are also expert trainers around the gym ready to help in case you need assistance. Another thing that you need to consider is if the training in a commercial gym is within your budget or not. Otherwise, it’s better to stick to home gym training.
Home gym training is ideal for those who don’t want to wait in line before gym equipment becomes available. As long as you have weight lifting equipment like dumbbells, barbells, squat stands and a good and solid bench, you can train very similar to those who train in the gym. Also, the main benefit is that you gain what you need for your body to gain inexpensively.
Another thing is that, with home gym training, you can train anytime you like or whenever you’re available. Just be sure you don’t train much, otherwise it will defeat the whole point of proper bodybuilding.
When bodybuilding at home, you will need to think about the training level you need to accomplish because there’s no one else who can lift the barbells just in case it ended up trapping your neck. You will need to think about and impose serious training precautions for a safer bodybuilding routine. Get to know more information related to bodybuilding by visiting http://tinyurl.com/lg29su.

Flea Treatment Harmful to Pets
Killing Fleas and Ticks May Be Harming Your Pet
The EPA is investigating reports of skin irritation, seizures and even death from between-the-shoulder flea and tick treatments for dogs and cats.
Flea and tick treatments for pets fall into that murky area in a lot of consumers' minds: We know the chemicals are designed to ward off or kill bugs ... but somehow we don't associate the products with the term "pesticides."
But the Environmental Protection Agency has received an increasing number of reports of pets having adverse reactions to "spot-on pesticide products" -- those between-the-shoulder liquid treatments designed to infuse the pet's skin with pest-fighting toxicity. Now the agency is taking a harder look at the potential toxicity of these products. "Adverse reactions reported range from mild effects such as skin irritation to more serious effects such as seizures and, in some cases, the death of pets," the organization reports.
Previously, the Natural Resources Defense Council reported that people can be exposed to flea and tick pesticides at 1,000 times the recommended safe dosage just from petting a dog or cat that has been treated.
Beyond Pesticides recommends these alternatives to spot-on treatments:
* Vacuum daily during flea season with a strong vacuum cleaner, changing the bag often
* Groom pets with a flea comb daily, using soapy water to dunk and clean the comb between strokes
* Bathe pets frequently with soap and water
* Restrict pets to a single bed and wash bedding frequently to kill larvae
* Consult Beyond Pesticides' Least-Toxic Control of Fleas and Least-Toxic Control of Ticks
The NRDC has similar recommendations:
* Frequent use of a flea comb
* Regular bathing of pets
* Regular vacuuming and washing of pet bedding
* Administering of chemical flea and tick controls by pill, only when absolutely necessary (find the least-toxic products at NRDC's www.greenpaws.org)

Anti-Acid Drugs, H. Pylori, Vitamin C
While we often see an increase in H. pylori with the increases in anti-biotics and anti-fungal drug use, we often don't see vitamins in a good light.
Of course anti-acid drugs depress immune function in the stomach because they suppress hydrochloric acid.
HCl fights food poisoning. Vitamin C is a major approach to food poisoning in higher doses, but of course those relying on drugs rarely see the benefits of supplements. The media follow suit.
And then of course there are other approaches. One is to first look to determine if the person has too low HCl as a cause of their reflux problem or properly evaluate for food allergy.
Take more vitamin C daily and also consider using BioPrin. BioPrin is an herbal compound thoroughly tested at Dana Farber and it is pharmaceutical grade as well as available through professionals only. Contact us for more information.
In the interim, start asking the correct questions at your doctor's office if you are dealing with this concern.
Topic: Vitamin C added to Standard H.Pylori Drug Treatment Increases Eradication Rate
Keywords: H. PYLORI, HELICOBACTER PYLORI, INFECTION - Vitamin C, Amoxicillin, Metronidazole, Bismuth, Omeprazole
Reference: "The efficacy of Helicobacter pylori eradication regimen with and without vitamin C supplementation," Zojaji H, Talaie R, et al, Dig Liver Dis, 2009 June 1; [Epub ahead of print]. (Address: Research Center for Gastroenterology and Liver Disease, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran. E-mail: swt_f@yahoo.com ).
Summary: In a study involving 312 patients with H. pylori infection, supplementation with vitamin C (500 mg/d) in addition to the standard H. pylori drug treatment regimen (consisting of 1 g amoxicillin, 500 mg b.i.d. metronidazole, 240 mg b.i.d. bismuth, and 40 mg q.i.d. omeprazole) was found to significantly increase H. pylori eradication rate, as found in urea breath tests conducted 4 weeks after the intervention, as compared to subjects who received the drug treatment alone. These results suggest that patients with H. pylori may benefit from supplementation with 500 mg/d vitamin C during the course of their standard drug treatment therapy.

When Sam walked into the room her friends and family were SHOCKED!
...Sitting with their eyes glued to her glowing smile and vibrant energy, the only words they could muster up were...
----------------------------
"Is THAT Sam?"
----------------------------
"Oh my gosh, she looks like a totally different person!"
You see, Sam was about 185 pounds, shy and she had low self esteem the last time her family saw her.
Not today!
You see, Sam made a life altering discovery that transformed her body and her life forever!
It's called "The Weight Loss Miracle" and many of its members are dropping 30 pounds in 30 days.
