Vitamin C

The Orthomolecular Medicine News Service (OMNS) reports that Dr. Yanagisawa evaluated 16 men between the ages of 32 and 59 that worked between five and six weeks in a high-radiation area of Fukushima. Some of the men received 25,000 milligrams (mg) of intravenous vitamin C therapy along with oral intake of other powerful antioxidants like alpha-lipoic acid and vitamin E prior to entering the contaminated area, while the others received no pretreatment at all.

After taking blood samples from all the men and evaluating them for whole blood count and chemistry, as well as for plasma levels of free DNA and 47 cancer-related gene expressions, Dr. Yanagisawa and his team found that those who received the vitamin C therapy experienced no increase in cancer risk or change in free DNA. Those who did not receive the treatment, on the other hand, had significantly increased cancer risk.

Those who did not receive pretreatment, but that received a post-treatment intervention with the same regimen for two months, however, saw their heightened free DNA levels return to normal. Their overall cancer risk score also returned back to normal, illustrating the incredible power of vitamin C and other antioxidants to protect against, and even reverse, the damage caused by radiation.

"This important clinical demonstration confirms research done nearly 20 years ago showing that pretreatment with vitamin C, by oral intake or injection, increased sperm head survival after the injection of radioactive Iodine-131 in mice," says the OMNS report.

Vitamin C is one of the most powerful nutrients in protecting against cell-damaging free radicals. And while ascorbic acid, the popular isolated version of vitamin C, has its demonstrable therapeutic uses, the camu camu berry is one of the most powerful vitamin C-rich superfoods for gaining the same health benefits naturally. The acerola cherry is also another vitamin C-dense superfood with amazing radio-protective abilities.

The most illustrative name on the diagram is that of Meredith Baker, currently a high-ranking lobbyist for Comcast-NBC. As a young woman, Baker interned at the State Department under then-Secretary of State James A. Baker III (who would later become her father-in-law). She later became a lawyer, specializing in corporate law. When her former State Department boss, Steven Barry, took a job at the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association, she followed him and secured a position as a lobbyist ("director of congressional affairs"). This was followed by a job at a telecommunications firm and another lobbying position.

Baker worked on George W. Bush's 2000 presidential campaign, and Bush subsequently appointed her first to the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, then to deputy assistant secretary of the Commerce Department.

In October 2007, while Baker was at the Commerce Department, the Associated Press reported that Comcast "actively interferes with attempts by some of its high-speed Internet subscribers to share files online, a move that runs counter to the tradition of treating all types of Net traffic equally." The FCC responded by opening an investigation into these practices, eventually concluding that Comcast's practices were unreasonable and ordering the company to desist.

During the conflict, Baker openly supported Comcast and adopted the cable and telephone industry's position opposing network neutrality. When President Obama appointed her to the FCC in 2009, she aggressively pursued this position. Writing about her time at the FCC, the Associated Press characterized Baker as "a reliable pro-business voice who frequently expressed concern that the agency was imposing unnecessary and onerous regulations on phone and cable companies."

During Baker's FCC tenure, the commission was called upon to approve a proposed merger of Comcast and NBC. The merger was approved in January 2011, with Baker voting in the affirmative. In March, Baker complained that the FCC had taken too long to review the merger and placed too many conditions on Comcast. Two months later, Baker announced that she would be prematurely leaving her FCC post to accept a job as Comcast's "senior vice president of governmental affairs for NBC Universal" — in other words, as a lobbyist.

Baker's story may be among the most obvious, but the "revolving door" between the government and media goes far beyond any one case. Numerous White House press secretaries and communications directors have come from (and later returned to) jobs in the media, raising the question of how critically they can be expected to report on the people they formed such close personal and professional relationships with.

Politicians have also leveraged their careers into lucrative media jobs. For example, Evan Bayh served first as Secretary of State and later as Governor of Indiana, before going on to represent the state in the U.S. Senate. Months after leaving the Senate, he took a paid position as a Fox News contributor. Rick Santorum, who spent 12 years as a U.S. senator for Pennsylvania, took a job as a Fox News contributor the month after leaving office. Now he is a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination.

As the TSA continues installing naked body scanners at U.S. airports and hiring hordes of new agents to grope travelers at airports, bus stations, trains stations, and even sports stadiums, the agency's more than $8 billion annual budget is rapidly ballooning. And rather than continue to siphon the cash to pay for this unconstitutional nightmare of tyranny directly from taxpayers, Obama and Co. wants to make airlines, airports, and air travelers foot the bill.

According to a recent Reuters report, the administration wants to charge airlines a $100 departure fee for every commercial, business, and other type of jet that takes off from an airport. The plan would also eliminate federal grant funding for medium and large-sized airports to complete construction projects, which means the airports would have to significantly raise fees for travelers and airlines in order to cover these costs.

This massive proposed shakedown of Americans who utilize air travel would not be necessary, of course, if the TSA and its pseudo-security monstrosity was simply eliminated altogether, as is one of the proposed plans being made by 2012 presidential candidate and Texas Representative Ron Paul. If airports and airlines were permitted to simply establish their own air travel screening protocols, in others words, none of these federal fees would even be necessary.

But being the war-mongering globalist that he truly is, Obama would rather have air travelers directly cover the costs of TSA goons digging around in granny's underwear, or taking off the diapers of young children. In essence, he would rather that every air traveler pay directly to be blasted with ionizing radiation in the backscatter x-ray machine, or to be molested by the prodding hands of a TSA screener.

What this will all accomplish, of course, is the utter destruction of the private airline industry, which is already having a difficult time staying afloat as frustrated travelers increasingly choose other forms of travel to avoid being illegally groped and screened. And just like General Motors, the endgame of this scenario is the takeover of the airlines industry by the federal government.

The successor to DSM-4, which was originally published in 1994, DSM-5 is set to be released in May 2013 following various preliminary draft revisions, several public comment periods, and general review by the psychiatric and medical communities. But so far, thousands of health professionals have already come out in opposition to the new manual in its current form, as it basically redefines a number of otherwise normal human behaviors as supposed mental illnesses.

According to David Pilgrim from the University of Central Lancashire in the U.K., it is obvious that DSM-5 "will help the interests of the drug companies" by widening the scope of what is considered to be mental illness. He told Reuters Health in a recent interview that the new guidelines "risk treating the experience and conduct of people as if they are botanical specimens waiting to be identified and categorized in rigid boxes." He added that it is a "form of collective madness," and referred to the proposed revisions as a "pseudo-scientific exercise."

The original 1840 Census of the United States contained only one classification for mental illness, after all, which was known as "idiocy/insanity." But throughout the following century, the number of recognized mental disorders jumped to over 100, while today, the APA recognizes more than 300 behaviors as mental illnesses in DSM-4. And for DSM-5, that number will likely jump significantly higher.

"Many people who are shy, bereaved, eccentric, or have unconventional romantic lives will suddenly find themselves labeled as mentally ill," said Peter Kinderman, head of Liverpool University's Institute of Psychology in a recent interview. "It's not human, it's not scientific, and it won't help decide what help a person needs."

What it will do, though, is give the field of psychology more opportunities to prescribe psychotropic drugs like Adderall, the popular medication for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), to children. ADHD diagnoses, after all, have been steadily rising over the years as the field of psychiatry continues to expand the scope of symptoms and perceived behaviors that constitute this so-called mental illness.

Nopal cactus can be prepared in numerous ways or eaten raw
Nopal cactus, known in Spanish as nopales, is an easy vegetable to add to a variety of recipes. The spines are cut off of the pads, the pads are chopped or sliced, then sauteed with scrambled eggs or added to omelets. Nopal cactus is often added to pico de gallo, a fiery Mexican raw vegetable medley made with tomatoes, onions, jalapeno peppers, and cilantro. It can be served grilled or sauteed with onions as a garnish for fajitas, or eaten raw in salads.

The neon red prickly pear, the fruit of the nopal cactus, tastes like a cross between bubblegum and watermelon. To prepare prickly pear, the spines are cut off and the skin is removed. This leaves the flesh and seeds of the fruit. Both are edible raw as is, or can be juiced and added to beverages and other recipes.

Nopal cactus may be considered a super-food due to its cholesterol-lowering capabilities
While Mexicans have been enjoying nopal cactus for centuries, the vegetable is trending as a super-food in the natural health and raw food community in the U.S. This may be because of medical research in the past decade which confirmed that nopales has the ability to lower LDL cholesterol levels. A 2003 medical study published by Nuclear Medicine Review: Central and Eastern Europe demonstrated that ten patients with high blood cholesterol levels were given dietary counseling for six weeks, then asked to eat prickly pear cactus for six weeks. The scientists found that these patients' livers were able to handle the regulation of LDL cholesterol significantly better by eating prickly pear cactus.

Nopal cactus fruit may also be considered a super-food because of its antioxidant properties
Prickly pear fruit has gained interest in the scientific community recently because it may contain the richest source of betalains in the plant kingdom. Betalains are phytochemicals which are unique to nopal cactus, beets, and Swiss chard. It is the chemical which gives these vegetables their ruby red color. Betalains are glycosides, which means they help to reduce blood glucose levels. Medical research performed in the 1990's showed the benefits of nopal cactus for diabetes.

The antioxidant properties of betalains protect the inner lining of blood vessels and the lymph system. A 2004 clinical study published in Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences states that the betalains in prickly pear were clearly demonstrated to protect vascular endothelial cells from the free radical effects of redox alteration from cytokines, the "signal" proteins that regulate the immune system.

But where is this school lunch inspection behavior really heading? Well, since the state loves your children so much, and since it is now the full responsibility of the state to care for your children, vaccinate them, feed them and program their brains with false U.S. history, the next step is government food agents conducting door-to-door surprise inspections at your house!

There's a knock on the door. You foolishly answer it, only to find three trendy government agents with fake smiles plastered on their faces, flashing their badges. "We're from the health department, and we're here to inspect your refrigerator. You have children here, correct?"

The next thing you know, they discovered a sprouting machine on your countertop and your stash of raw milk hidden away in the back of the fridge. "Looks like we got ourselves a food terrorist here!" one of the agents mutters to the other. "Call in CPS! And the SWAT team!"

A few minutes later, you're face down in the dirt in your own front yard, where the local city council fined you for trying to grow tomatoes, by the way . Health department thugs are grinding a knee into your lower back, and one of them leans in to whisper into your ear: "You think those are YOUR children? WE are their parents now, get it? And we control what they eat and what medicine they get from now on."

One of them cracks the back of your head with the butt of his government-issue rifle, slapping your nose into the soil as a sharp reminder. "And don't make us come back, or we'll have to take your little Johnny away and make him disappear into our world, where there are at least a dozen sexually frustrated agents who are looking for fresh meat, so to speak. Because meat is a USDA requirement, get it?"

That's what could soon be coming your way in America — a nation that's beginning to resemble North Korea in its total abandonment of human rights and human decency.

When schools denounce the role of parents in feeding their own children — and when doctors denounce the role of parents in making health care decisions for their own children — we aren't too far away from the total state-run takeover of parenting.

You think it's a coincidence that the health department wants your children to eat GMO food that's chemically contaminated with brain-damaging excitotoxins? Of course not: The state wants to, at minimum, make your children sterile. If all the toxic GMOs and food chemicals happen to give them cancer or some other chronic disease in the mean time, that's just a bonus dividend paid out by the pharmaceutical industry for all its profiteering on human suffering.

And hey, if your kid actually dies from all the poisonous food, the deadly vaccines, or the radiation fallout from all the deteriorating nuclear power plants across the country, that's just a bonus for Bill Gates who factors it into his depopulation equation: P = P – 1 , where P = Population. Your kid is the "minus one" part of that calculation.

Of course, that's good for the planet, right? So you should be happy to sacrifice your children to the state, as long as their early death brings down CO2 emissions. Just how much carbon dioxide does a pair of tiny lungs generate with its last dying breath, anyway? It gives a whole new meaning to the "depart" segment of the phrase "Health DEPARTment."

That's the point of the Health Department, you see: To make you depart from this world by destroying your health first.

The point is that as long as you follow the USDA, follow the Health Department, and submit to the new "food police" agents conducting random sack searches (and no, I don't mean the TSA again) then you'll get along just fine with the status quo. The government worshippers. The trendy statists who think it takes a village of government agents to raise a child.

It's not enough to raise Amish raw milk farmers at gunpoint, you see, or for the government to destroy $50,000 worth of raw wholesome milk that was about to fed to hungry infants and babies. In order to completely crush all remaining shards of liberty and drive the stake of total tyranny through the American family, the government has to punish nutritional non-conformity. Any parent who attempts to pack a school lunch that does not contain processed cancer-causing meat and pasteurized dead cow's milk shall be punished, blamed and publicly humiliated.

Down with nutrition! Conformity is safety! Obedience is freedom! Chant that mantra of oppression fifty times until you start believe it, and then stop homeschooling your children and send them off to be de-educated in public schools, where both their minds and their bodies are poisoned on a daily basis so that they can grow up to become reporters for CNN.

Bow down before your new God, the all-powerful, all-seeing, all-spying Government. We are your parents now, little children. Worship us and you will be rewarded with coupons and trinkets. We may even give you an iPhone if you take enough vaccines without telling your parents. Shhhh!

The school that allowed this "food police" activity to take place is the West Hoke Elementary School in Raeford, North Carolina. Its web page is:
http://whes.hcs.k12.nc.us/

The school's slogan is: West Hoke Elementary School commits to promoting education by providing an environment conducive to learning.

Really? I guess nutrition doesn't play any role in that learning "environment." Forcing little children to eat processed chicken nuggets and pasteurized, homogenized, dead cow's milk that's filled with pus (yes, that's true) isn't much of a commitment to learning, is it now?

The principal of this school is Jackie Samuels. He is not the bad guy here and may not have even been aware this was going on. It was the state officials who conducted this food police activity at the school, not the school administrators.

The phone number of the school is: 910-875-2584

If you do contact this school or its principal Jackie Samuels, please be polite. Don't go all crazy on 'em. Remember: Teaching is a very tough job, and most teachers are dedicated professionals who genuinely want to help. My beef is with the state officials who conducted these sack lunch searches, not the elementary school staff. Just let principal Samuels know that you don't approve of them allowing government food police use their school as a "food police checkpoint" that only indoctrinates little children into learning obedience to the growing police state.

After all, elementary school is a place of learning. But WHAT are the kids learning if the school teaches them it's okay for government agents to deny them their own lunches and force them to eat processed toxic food instead? The message is clear: Your parents are bad! Government is God! Worship the state, or you will be punished.

It has now been revealed by TMZ that L.A. County Coroner's officials told Houston's family that she died from a toxic combination of prescription drugs and alcohol. Importantly, there was not enough water in her lungs to have drowned her, meaning she died from the drugs and then sank into the tub.

"The singer did not die from drowning, but rather from what appears to be a combination of Xanax and other prescription drugs mixed with alcohol … this according to family sources," reports TMZ.

The family was also told that Whitney died "before her head became submerged."

Yet another victim of the pharmaceutical industry and its deadly medications
The evidence now conclusively points to the fact that Whitney Houston has been killed by the pharmaceutical industry. She had no death wish, no suicidal behavior, and no intent to kill herself. There was no evidence of foul play. She thought she was merely taking "anti-anxiety drugs" that would help her relax, but instead she was killed by an FDA-approved product, prescribed by state-licensed doctors and dispensed by licensed pharmacies.

She was killed, in other words, by "western medicine" (sometimes called "conventional medicine").

FDA-approved pharmaceuticals kill more Americans every year than died in the entire Vietnam War. Pharmaceutical drug deaths dwarf acts of terrorism and automobile accidents. There is no greater scourge of death and destruction on our modern civilization than the drug companies and their deadly, toxic products.

Elvis and Marilyn Monroe were also killed by the drug industry's medications. Whitney Houston is not the only celebrity killed by Big Pharma's drugs. The industry's toxic chemicals also killed Elvis, Heath Ledger, and Marilyn Monroe. And hundreds of thousands of people are killed every year who aren't famous — they just die quietly in their beds as yet more victims of the greed-driven pharmaceutical industry whose products are more deadly than terrorism.

No other industry is granted so much latitude and government approval to sell deadly products which kill those who consume them. Only the pharmaceutical industry, with its deadly vaccines that kill teen girls and its toxic chemotherapy is given near total immunity by the government to keep on killing innocent people like Whitney Houston.

And those who aren't outright killed by their drugs are routinely harmed by those drugs or made into prescription drug addicts. Big Pharma is an industry of death that will continue to kill our beloved singers, artists and fellow citizens and family members unless we demand an end to the drug culture marketing of prescription pills and a return to medical sanity. The FDA legalized pharmaceutical advertising on television in 1997, and since then, drug use (and drug deaths) have skyrocketed across America.

Whitney Houston's death must serve as an urgent reminder that pills are not the answer, and that those who seek to alter their moods, physiology or biochemistry through Big Pharma's deadly drugs are only playing Russian roulette with their lives.

Share this story to help spread this warning: Prescription pills are NEVER the answer! If you want to be healthy, turn to nutrition, dietary improvements, exercise, sunlight and time with nature. Eat organic, non-GMO foods. Take high-end superfood supplements. Get regular exercise and consider starting a home garden. You cannot "chemicalize" your way to good health. The body and mind need Mother Nature, not synthetic chemicals made in a pharmaceutical factory.
