Alkaline Minerals Scientifically Proven to Reduce Risk of Cancer, Arthritis, Osteoporosis (2)

A recently published study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism (Vol 94, No 1 96-102, 2009) has provided further evidence that the consumption of and supplementation with alkaline minerals is essential for good health. The objective of the study was to understand the effect of alkaline minerals (potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate and potassium chloride) on bone health – specifically, the ability of these alkaline minerals to slow the bone resorption rate and calcium excretion.

Is Modern Medicine Founded on Error? (1)

Modern medicine is firmly founded on the “Germ Theory of Disease” promulgated by Louis Pasteur in the 1860’s. Pasteur’s 140-year-old theory is still the medical paradigm upon which Western medicine fights disease as we enter the 21st century. But with a huge increase today in infectious diseases and the rapidly rising epidemic of cancer, diabetes, heart disease and other chronic illnesses; we have to wonder if Pasteur’s theory is really that sound.

Is Modern Medicine Founded on Error? (2)

Béchamp and others in the scientific community opposed the germ theory and advocated the theory of pleomorphism, saying:

· Acidic terrain, not germs, cause disease
· Germs are already in the body by the billions and don’t necessarily have to come from without (although that can sometimes happen)
· Blood is not sterile but can contain many microbial forms
· Germs are pleomorphic, i.e., they can change through many forms (Dr Gaston Naessens identified a microbe undergoing 16 different stages of evolution)
· Virtually all diseases are caused by acidic terrain
· Diseases can be prevented or reversed by increasing the alkalinity of the terrain (more…)

Why Do We Humans Get Sick? (1)

Why Do We Humans Get Sick? (2)

Dr. Malkmus: I’m going to drop a bombshell here. Almost every physical and even psychological problem we humans experience during our entire lifetime (other than accidents of course) is caused by the placing of wrong fuel (food or drink) into our body, and the physical and emotional problems we experience are almost always merely the body reacting to that wrong fuel.

Insecticides Increase Obesity and Diabetes Risk by Altering Liver Cell Signals

A paper in Environmental Health Perspectives links organophosphate (OP) insecticide exposures during fetal development to predisposition to metabolic syndrome. A key new mechanism leading to adverse developmental outcomes is described – alteration of the trajectory of cell signaling in liver cells “…in a manner consistent with the observed emergence of prediabetes-like metabolic dysfunction.”

Souce: Adigun, A.A., et al., “Neonatal Organophosphate Pesticide Exposure Alters the Developmental Trajectory of Cell-Signaling Cascades Controlling Metabolism: Differential Effects of Diazinon and Parathion,” Environmental Health Perspectives, Vol. 118, No. 2, pages 210-215, February 2010.
