WARNING: This Light Bulb Is Hazardous To Your Health!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.  If the government pushes it, run away as fast as you can! My experience is only 56 years, but what I’ve learned in that time is that it is never about you and me or what’s good for us.  It is always about money, power and political clout.  I really only woke up to this fact during the great global warming scam.  As you now know, scientists around the world devised a scheme to launch a new world order, transfer wealth from the west to third world nations and make you line up to pay for it.  Somehow they were able to bully mainstream media into going along with the plan and they even corralled weak politicians everywhere to buy in.  If it had not been for the whistle-blower at East Anglia University, they might have gotten away with it.

But while we are busy prosecuting and jailing the fraudsters involved in that scam, there are collateral issues developing all over the place.  I think that this is going to be a monstrous mess before we’re all done.  One such issue that of the “compact flourescent light bulb.”

In the height of the global warming swindle government and corporations were pressured to respond to energy consumption.  One of the things that was at the front of the charge to conserve energy was the issue around light bulbs.  The global warming alarmists squawked incessantly about traditional light bulbs wasting energy.  The answer, they said, was to replace all incandescent bulbs with the compact fluorescent bulbs.  The contention was that this move would save a bundle in energy costs.

If I can digress for a moment, I would like to point out the logistical flaws in that line of thought.  While it is true that the CFL (compact fluorescent light bulb) requires much less energy to run, there are some things that the alarmists are not considering.

First and foremost is the fact that traditional bulb emits a considerable amount of heat.  Heat is energy.  If you remove that energy (heat) from the space you are trying to light, then you have two choices.  Either put up with the lower temperature, or warm up the space.  Nearly everyone opts to keep their rooms at a comfortable temperature.  So the result is that furnaces and heating sources need to work longer and harder to make up for the lost energy that the bulb were previously emitting.  The end result is that it costs more to run the furnace than the light bulb!  Overall energy bills did not come down as expected.  In fact, they were offset by the rise in heating costs.

But back to the light bulb.  People soon began to complain of health issues.  Some symptoms that people commonly  complained about included:

Mild to severe Headaches (Migraines), Skin Irritation, redness, burning sensations, and or itchiness, Dizziness and Nausea, Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and Earaches, Numbness and Tingling sensations, Tired, Weak and Fatigued, Difficulty Sleeping / Restlessness, Chest Pains / Heart Problems, Poor Memory and Concentration, Irritability, Feelings of Stress and Anxiety, Depression and Mood Swings, Difficulty breathing, Muscle and joint pain, Pain and pressure in the eyes.

I cannot say with any certainty that those symptoms were all caused by the bulb, but they have been attributed to CFLs by a significant number of people.  In my line of work if have found most of those symptoms more related to chronic acidosis than anything else.  People that suffer those ailments are usually acidic.  They typically drink pop/soda, eat lots of acidic foods, and drink tap water or even worse – bottled water.    People who can identify with these issues might want to check out high alkaline diets or read some of the articles on this site that talk about the science of alkalinity.

Regardless of the government opts to do next, you should at the very least educate yourself on this issue.  Watch the video below.  Then take an inventory at your home or work place.  Do you have any of these bulbs?  How do you feel?  Do you have any of these symptoms?

Stress, Acidity, and Dental Decay

I was at a barbecue this weekend and met a doctor there.  I’ll call him Dr. T.  We got talking about disease and the disease business.  Of course I was fairly quick to bring up the issue of acidosis and alkalinity.  I was surprised to find that this doctor was actually up to date with his knowledge and understanding around the mechanisms of disease.  We had a fairly frank discussion.

The short story is that it seems there are a few doctors who are aware of the importance of alkalinity in the prevention of conditions that lead to disease.  Dr. T indicated to me that the medical profession is aware that persons who are adequately hydrated with properly alkalized water create intra-cellular conditions that make it difficult, if not impossible, for defective or mutated cells to replicate.  In layman’s terms, this appears to mean that under the right circumstances, disease cannot exist.

I asked him why, then, is there not more attention given to this.  I found the answer somewhat annoying.  The way the medical system in many western countries is set up, doctors are not paid well for subjective intervention such as discussing diets, and bodily processes.  They are paid well for treating symptoms for patients in rapid succession.  A general practitioner might reasonably see 45 to 60 patients per day under this model.  If he or she were to consult thoroughly with their clients, there would be time for only about 5 to 10 patients per day.

Dr. T told me that he had seen the effects of high acid diets, especially since the introduction of all these “energy drinks”.  He told me of one popular drink that within one hour of consuming a can of this stuff, his clients blood cells looked like the blood cells of a 75 year old man.  The blood was thick and sticky.  He indicated that these drinks are of concern to the health care industry.  There is no pharmaceutical remedy for this kind of self abuse.

At the same time, we talked about the great benefits of alkalinity.  Dr. T. told me about a client he had that was under a lot of stress.  As a result, her body was producing massive amounts of acid.  In an effort to control the acid, his client did what most people are told to do for stress.  She exercised more!  What she did not realize is that exercise turns up the volume on acid production considerably.  When you breathe more and work your muscles you are building up lactic acid, carbonic acid and a range of blood acids.  Dr. T’s client began to experience her teeth pitting and rotting.  It was as though they suddenly all decided to rot out of her head.  The acid was eating away at the enamel quickly.

Dr. T quickly put his client on a high alkaline water and almost immediately the dental decay was arrested.  She had dental work done to repair the damage and after 5 months of normal exercise and a high alkaline diet, she had no dental decay and was looking and feeling very well.

As the story of alkalinity get out, more and more people will get onboard and fix their diets.  It doesn’t take much effort to really get on the right path.

The Great Cholesterol Lie!

One of the most important books ever written about cholesterol, heart disease and inflammation has now sold worldwide across the US and 17 countries. What is it about this book?

“The Great Cholesterol Lie” by thoracic surgeon, Dr. Dwight Lundell is one of the most timely and critically important books written since the cholesterol theory began in 1948. It is about heart disease and inflammation running amok throughout your body from dietary recommendations born of that theory of no fat, low-fat foods causing an epidemic of heart disease and inflammation. Science now knows inflammation is linked to obesity from the very foods created from this theory that were supposed to make us slim and trim.

Someone very close to you, a friend, spouse, child, parents, grandparents is taking statin medications or a child with juvenile diabetes, adults with diabetes, seniors with Alzheimer’s, rheumatoid arthritis, almost every disease we know of is from inflammation running amok.

Dr. Lundell holds nothing back showing you how to heal your heart and health naturally without statin medications.

Grab your copy now here .

Most revealing book I’ve read in years. I can see why the book sold in 17 countries worldwide.

Toxins In Our Food Chain

A friend of mine sent me a news report through Facebook this morning.  Once again I am astounded by what I read.  In an article from the blog NewsInferno, the staff reporter says this:

Monsanto Co. is facing consumer fraud allegations for claiming that the latest version of its genetically modified soybean seeds could produce higher yields for farmers. West Virginia’s attorney general has accused Monsanto of violating the state’s Consumer Credit and Protection Act in making the claims.

The new Monsanto seed is called Roundup Ready 2. According to The Wall Street Journal, Roundup Ready soybeans are the most popular type of genetically modified seed planted in the U.S. They are designed to survive exposure to Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide, making it possible for farmers to spray weedkiller directly on fields without damaging their crop.

According to a Bloomberg report, Monsanto last year began shifting growers to the new seeds by promising a 7 percent to 11 percent bigger harvest compared with the original Roundup Ready soybean seeds. The original version loses patent protection in 2014.

The emphasis in this text is mine.  Designed to make it possible for farmers to spray weedkiller directly onto fields without damaging their crops?  Are you kiddin me?  You and I are expected to eat that stuff!

What drives this point home even more for me was that I was at a demonstration last night for Kangen water.  The Kangen water machines product high alkaline water in the range of 9.5 and higher.  They showed me how pH 11.5 water has the ability to emulsify oils, and in the process clean oils and toxins off any produce that we eat.

We took a bowl of cherry tomatoes that we bought from the local grocery store.  We put half of the tomatoes into a bowl of clean tap water and the other half into a bowel of high alkaline (11.5 pH) Kangen water.  We let them sit for a few mintues, stirring one or twice.

When we poured the water off the tomatoes into clear glasses, the water that came from the tomatoes that was sitting in clean tap water was itself nice and clean.  The water  that came off the tomatoes sitting in Kangen 11.5 was murky yellow!  When we did the taste test on them, the tomatoes that had been thoroughly cleaned of all their pesticides (in the 11.5 pH water) was way better tasting than the other.

The point here is that you cannot adequately clean off pesticides from the food we eat (unless you can afford a Kangen machine).  That means the majority of food that people eat today is going to be toxic.  This, folks, is a serious issue.

Check back here in the next few days, I am going to post the video showing the totato test.

The Ultimate Fat Loss Formula

I talked about glutathione in several earlier articles.  With the release of a supplement that can now boost our bodies’ own natural glutathione levels, we are moving into a whole new era of very effective nutraceuticals.  I think that the rapid successes of some of these companies are going to force big pharmaceutical companies to divert some of their resources toward the research and development of what I call the new millennium for supplement research.

Just five days after beginning my tests on the glutathione accelerator, I notice some great health benefits.  The first thing I noticed was the clarity of thought and a much better sleep pattern.  But in talking with the company that developed the product, I wanted to know more about the supplements and their role and function.  Part of their formula included l-cysteine, l-carnitine and alpha lipoid acid.  I had long known the value of these supplements for weight lifters.

What I did, however, was unusual.  I deliberately ate poorly.  During a ten day period I ate out most meals at a restaurant.  That included burgers and fries, fish and chips, and a pizza.  The only thing I did well was to take my greens with high alkaline water in the morning.  I drink high alkaline water all day long as part of my quest to remain free of chronic acidosis and the range of diseases that come along with that.

With my glutathione levels on the rise I definitely felt the increase in energy and mental focus.  What surprised me totally was that after 10 days I was down two belt notches.  I don’t weigh myself often as it is just depressing.  But I do monitor my clothing and how it fits.  These past two days my pants were much looser than normal.

I think that I am on to something here and it is something that the company hasn’t recognized yet.  Maybe it is going to become the ultimate fat loss formula?  We’ll see.  I am doing more testing this week, but I will eat a whole lot better.

Glutathione and The Brain

Glutathione has been called the brain’s master antioxidant. It plays an essential role in protecting this vital organ from free radical activity. Numerous National Library of Medicine studies indicate that free radical damage to brain tissue may be associated with neurodegenerative disorders. The neutralization of these free radicals becomes an essential function of glutathione in the brain.

The brain is without doubt one of the most fascinating, yet least understood, organs in the body. It goes without saying that organs don’t get more vital than the brain. At the same time, the brain is highly vulnerable to free radical activity, commonly known as oxidation.

Unlike many of our other organs in the human body, the brain is most deficient in defences against oxidative stress. This deficiency can leave the brain vulnerable to something called “lipid peroxidation”. Lipids are a broad group of naturally occurring molecules which include fats, waxes, and such vitamins as A, D, E, and K. Lipids play an important role in such functions as energy storage and cell messaging.

CRP Tests and Cancer

It was about a year ago now that I wrote my most popular article on CRP and cancer.  CRP, for those that don’t know is a blood test that measures the amount of protein (called C-Reactive Protein) in your blood.  What this test does is measure the specific level of inflammatory response your body manifests at a given point in time.  The test, by today’s standards, is fairly simple.

What doctors know for sure is the high levels of CRP are mostly caused by infections and irritations, as well as many chronic diseases.  These risk factors will pretty much always cause inflammation in your body.  So the test is quite straight forward.  It’s as if every time you get whacked in the head, and there is a guy standing near you in  a yellow jacket.  Before long, one can predict that you are going to get whacked in the head simply because there is a guy in a yellow jacket standing near you.  Ok – that may be a bit of an over-simplification, but you get the picture.

The real problem with CRP testing is that it tells you that there are problems, but you don’t know where the problems are.  That would be like having a light flash on our car’s dashboard that says, “your car is broken”.  A lot of good that would do!

Is Hair Loss Really Neccessary?

You would think that in an era where we can map the genome, create nano-technology and repair genes – that this whole issue around baldness would have been long since fixed.  I guess there is just not enough interest in the subject!  We all know that statement is a load of bunk!

The real problem is not that baldness cannot be solved.  It’s that it is you and me that are trying to solve it!  Einstein gave us plenty of hints back in his day.  He said that we will never solve the problem with the same level of thinking we had when we created it.  He was correct back then and his statement still holds true today.  For some reason we seem to tackle every problem vertically.  As we move forward to solve problems, we do so only in a logical or “vertical” manner.  I guess it was Pavlov’s dog that set the standard for all of these decades.  Ring the bell – get food.  Ring the bell again – get more food.

What reinforces our foolish behavior is that along the way we are periodically rewarded for flawed thinking.  Solving the problem of heartburn is an example.  When you feel the burn, you take antacid.  Problem solved right?  Wrong!  The symptom of the problem is solved, but the problem still exists.  THAT – folks, is the main problem with traditional medicine.  Very few people want to change this model because it has shown to be infinitely more financially rewarding than the alternative of actually solving the problem.

What really happens is that we start out thinking vertically to try to solve some problem.  Suddenly we discover that what we are doing inadvertently solved a different problem! Such is the case for a popular erectile dysfunction product.

the active ingredient in this product was found to be an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction even though it was intended to be a cardiovascular drug. During the testing phase, scientists at the pharmaceutical company realized that it was not very effective in treating heart ailments. But the one thing it did very well was cause erections.

Nowadays, I always ask myself, “what were they trying to fix when they invented this?”.  More often than not, it was not what we would expect.  So how does this all relate to the topic – Is Hair Loss Really Necessary?  Well, the answer is simple.

Hair loss is not necessary for many people.  There are two reasons for hair loss.  One is genetic and the other is hormonal.  Very soon we will have control of both factors.  Already there are some excellent hormonal support supplements that will stop and even reverse the effects of balding.  I recently ran into a very promising product that I am currently watching carefully.  I may even do some of my own testing on it.  But in the long term, I can assure you that the problem of balding will be solved and it will be solved in our lifetimes.  What will be surprising, however, is that it will be solved while we are looking at solving some other issue.   And It will be a complete surprise to us when it happens.

Stop The Aging Process

I’m on day four now with my glutathione experiment.  As I mentioned last week, I was doing a trade show in a local community and met a large number of like-minded health enthusiasts.  Even though I trained in medical research and phyto-nutrition, I will be the first to admit that it is such a large field that I don’t really think one can every be a guru in this stuff.

With an open source research platform, the industry standard, there is just too much information to cover for any single entity.  I switched from PC to a Macbook about 10 months ago in order to increase my efficiency in conducting, tabulating and analyzing research data.  Even with the fantastic advantage that Mac gives me over anything in the PC world, I simply cannot keep up with everything.  In that respect, I try to concentrate on the important things to me and my family.  At this stage of my life, it includes things that lead me to staying disease free and keeping energetic and healthy.

Glutathione – The Next 200 Pound Gorilla On Campus

For many months I have been writing about the wonders of alkalinity and the powerful health benefits we experience from consuming high alkaline foods.   I was recently giving a demonstration at a local trade fair when I met a gentleman whom I found very interesting.

This fellow was a retired petro-chemical engineer.  He was one of the very few people that I meet that really understands the science behind the state of dysbiosis that is happening in our bodies as we age.

He was so refreshing to speak with that we decided to meet later for coffee.  I always try to keep an open mind and I also have learned, in my 56 years on this planet, that everything happens for a reason – and that reason is usually for our own benefit… whether we immediately recognize that fact or not.

My new friend was very knowledgeable about many bodily functions and processes.  But what most interested me was his understanding of the situation regarding glutathione and it function in our bodies.

I remember bookmarking a link I found 6 months ago that talked about the use and function of glutathione.  The molecule is a substance that our  bodies manufactures by itself.  It is not something that we can eat or inject with any reasonable degree of efficacy.  The digestive process destroys glutathione very early in the game, so virtually none of it gets to do any work on us.

What peaked my curiosity is the fact that we all have glutathione already, but our systems begin to destroy it as we get older.  the scientists call this “glutathione reduction” – and apparently it’s a bad situation and possibly the cause of our premature aging.  The real question for me is this.  Do we age because we destroy our glutathione?  Or do we destroy our glutathione because we age?

The chemical formula for glutathione is C10-H17-N3-O6-S.  It has six oxygen molecules and 4 of them are double bonded!  Double bonds are difficult to destroy, yet our bodies are finding a way.  The natural glutathione that does its wonderful work while we are young is the most potent antioxidant known to man.  Apparently it only works for the first part of our lives, then sadly wanes.  I suspect this situation is about to change!

Glutathione is extremely soluble in water and it is classed as a nutraceutical.  As a micronutrient it appears that corporate medicine has been trying to patent an ingestible form of it for some time.  So far there has been little success.

When I searched the US National Library of Medicine, I was surprised to find nearly 91,000 articles on the subject.  Clearly there is a lot of interest in this molecule.  It is widely described as the “mother of all antioxidants”.  Science says that, unlike other antioxidants, glutathione has the ability to recycle itself.  This may be one of the reasons that young people have such a youthful advantage.  Their glutathione levels are working well.  But somewhere along the line something happens that switches off the glutathione tolerance mechanism.  We begin to destroy the stuff and then we begin to age.   And we do not age in a straight line, as many of you will attest!  The age process seems get faster and faster.  How many times have we said that about time?  Like lines on the road… faster and faster.

My preliminary research has led me to a company that claims to have a complementary complex of molecules that, when taken orally, prohibit the body from destroying glutathione.  I am at the beginning stages of testing the efficacy of this product on both myself and two of my associates.  I will most definitely be writing about our findings in due course.  Whether the product is a success or a failure, you will find out here first.

If it is successful, my guess you are going to see new “gold rush” in the latter part of 2010 – and it is going to all about glutathione.

New Hope For Cancer Treatment

I was watching some presentations this morning on “TED Talks” and found some wonderful evidence that we are making headway in the battle against both cancer and obesity. It also supports what I have been saying for 10 years. We are on the cusp of radically successful cancer treatment. Dr. William Li explained the concept of “angiogenesis”.

Angiogenesis is the process your body uses to build blood vessels. Your body consists of about 19 billion capillaries, which are the vessels for both life and death.

According to Dr. Li, excessive angiogenesis (too many blood vessels) promote diseases such as cancer, blindness, arthritis, endometriosis, multiple sclerosis and many others. As if that isn’t bad enough, angiogenesis also promotes obesity. When our bodies are not creating those extra blood vessels, we are said to be in a state of anti-angiogenesis.

Disease Control

This weekend I had the opportunity to do some videoing. My business partner and I wanted to text various water products to see that their relative pH values would be. In light of the war that appears to be going on for control of your purchasing power, I really want to find the answers.

On one side of the equation we have big companies and multinational corporations that produce really great tasting beverages. Who doesn’t enjoy a nice cold beer or a favorite soda on a hot day? These products taste so good… how could anybody say they are not good for us? On the other side of the equation we have health scientists who are now beginning to identify some of the finer points to disease prevention. One of those points is that the role of alkalinity is more important than we previously realized.

All anyone has to do is search and they will find a ton of research that supports alkalinity. It’s common knowledge now that cancer won’t grow in alkaline environments. Cancer requires an acidic environment. When scientists started looking at disease prevention rather than disease curing, it became clear that there were some environmental factors that contributed significantly to growth of diseases.

The Frequency of Disease

I recently began reading a book called “Journeys Out of The Body” by Bob Monroe.  I was about half way into the book when I read new scientific reports about dirty power and a potential link to a third form of diabetes called “Type 3 Diabetes.”

It occurred to me that so much of our world appears to be connected in a special way.  Bob Monroe talks about his out of body experiences that began back in the late 1950s.  In those days it wasn’t fashionable to have all these fancy terms for things.  Astral projection is what it was, but there was no way a group of conservative scientists would be caught dead talking about astral projection.  So they just called it an out of body experience.

When I look at what is going on today, I am becoming more and more convinced that it is all about frequency.  Science has now proven that certain frequencies (those emitted by cordless phones, microwaves and wireless routers) can interfere with some pretty basic bodily processes.  In double blind tests they have proven that these frequencies will interfere with not only your heart rhythm, but also your glucose metabolism.  This is where I get worried.  I’ve been studying phyto-nutrition for 35 years.  There are a ton of diseases that get their roots in the chain of things that go wrong once your glucose metabolism breaks down.

Bob Monroe was able to lower his frequency by using hemi-sync technology and thereby leave his physical body to visit other places.  Strange as this sounds, Bob proved his abilities by setting up tests with his science partners.  One night he projected to the home of a doctor friend of his.  Bob had never been to the home or met the family.  The next day, Bob was able to describe their dining room, identify that the doctor’s wife had handed out mail at dinner time, and even identified that the doctor had loaded a machine of some sort into the back of his car at 8:30 in the evening.  The car was in the garage and out of sight of everyone.  It is enough to send shivers up your spine.

I think the next big discoveries will be in the field of nano technology and frequency manipulation.  Perhaps this is the famous “Tricorder” from Star Trek?  Who knows!  What is clear is that we are rapidly closing in on the ability to changer destiny in a big way.  I hope I am still here to see this happen.
