Research Reveals How Sugar CAUSES Cancer
The average American consumes their body weight annually in this cancer-causing substance, and yet hospitals freely feed it to their cancer patients, oblivious to the harm it does. Hospitals feed cancer patients sugar and high carbohydrate diets for a reason: they are abysmally ignorant of the role of nutrition in health and disease — hence their burgeoning growth and packed rooms. Even though the science itself shows – at least since the mid-20′s with Otto Warburg’s cancer hypothesis — that tumors prefer to utilize sugar fermentation to produce energy rather than the much more efficient oxygen-based phosphorylation* – hospitals have actually invited corporations like McDonald’s to move into their facilities to ‘enhance’ their patient’s gustatory experience, presumably to provide comfort and take the edge off of the painful surgery, radiation and chemo treatments erroneously proffered to them as the only reasonable ‘standard of care.’
El 60% de desahucios en Madrid es en viviendas públicas vendidas a fondos
Seis de cada diez desahucios ejecutados en la capital se producen en las viviendas públicas de alquiler social vendidas en los últimos años por el Ayuntamiento y la Comunidad de Madrid a fondos de inversión. Así consta en un informe en el que el Ministerio de Hacienda desmenuza y critica el programa electoral de la nueva alcaldesa, Manuela Carmena (Ahora Madrid), que se ha comprometido precisamente a frenar los desahucios y a ofrecer una vivienda pública a los afectados. De los 111 casos contabilizados por Hacienda entre febrero y junio de este año, 65 fueron en viviendas vendidas por la Administración. El controvertido informe del Ministerio de Hacienda, al que ha tenido acceso EL PAÍS, censura las políticas comprometidas por el nuevo Gobierno municipal. Hacienda analiza la promesa de Ahora Madrid de “poner todos los medios y recursos municipales para la paralización de desahucios y desalojos de primera vivienda, y para garantizar una alternativa habitacional a sus habitantes”.

Why Water Fluoridation Continues, Despite Its Ill Effects
By Dr. Mercola A majority of Americans consume an "invisible" drug on a daily basis—a drug so harmful it's been proven to cause serious health issues, including damage to your bones, teeth, kidneys, thyroid, and pineal gland. Dozens of studies have shown it reduces IQ in children and damages your brain. Despite that, this drug is so pervasive that over 40 percent of American teens between the ages of 12 and 15 show visible signs of overexposure.1 The drug in question is fluoride—which is added to a majority of municipal water supplies across the US. Drugging Without Consent Many fail to realize that fluoride is indeed a drug, and as such it is grossly inappropriate for it to be indiscriminately added to water supplies, as there's no way to control the dose. Incontrovertible Evidence Shows Water Fluoridation Is a Bad Idea Many are also wholly unfamiliar with the history of water fluoridation. Would You Drink Shampoo to Clean Your Hair?

Genetics Research -- A Failed Science Now Used for Social Control?
By Dr. Mercola I've previously written about how your environment and lifestyle, particularly your diet, has a direct influence on your genetic expression. For example, research using identical twins have shown that diet trumps genes in terms of the level of health you achieve. Science Increasingly Used as a Tool for Social Control Latham starts off by discussing a truly blatant example of this type of manufactured PR. "This implies that most of student success is a consequence of potentially alterable social or environmental factors," Latham writes. "This is an important and perhaps surprising observation, of high interest to parents, teachers, and policymakers alike; but it did not make the headlines. Instead, their discussion and interest focused almost entirely on a different aspect of their findings: that three gene variants each contribute just 0.02% (one part in 5,000) to variation in educational attainment. Why indeed. The tobacco industry also pioneered 'behavioral genetics'.
The Opossum and Organic Gardening | Little Bit of Green
by Kimberly Hays August 15th, 2014 | Organic Gardening Share inShare0 Don’t be alarmed if you see that you have an opossum living in your yard. They are good guys when it comes to your garden. The old tale that they carry rabies is untrue, and they can be quite handy in the garden. Garden Police – Opossums eat insect pests which may help keep them from eating your garden plants. Dead and Rotting Matter – Opossums will also eat dead animals in your garden, but really aren’t interested in your plants. Ticks – The Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies recently conducted a study where they found that opossums can help keep tick infestations at bay. You have probably decided by now that you want to leave the opossums alone and live and let live.
Climate: 15 scary facts about rising seas (Opinion)
Climate change gets couched, especially by skeptics, as an intangible, far-off issue. But meet people who are terrified their country -- everything they know -- will be drowned beneath the waves, and you can see that this is a crisis, and one that must be addressed immediately. I'll write more soon about my time on the islands -- and about the surprising U.S. community where some Marshallese people already are taking refuge from floods. These are topics, by the way, you voted for me to explore as part of my "2 degrees" series on climate change. For now, here's a look at some of the scariest data about how much ocean levels could rise, and when. We're talking about the future here, so estimates vary by source, but the bottom line is this: Our actions today will create the world future generations will have to inhabit. I hope that's a world that includes the Marshall Islands and Miami, Bangladesh and London. Take a look at these facts, and please let me know what you think in the comments.
10 Important Facts About Fluoride You Need to Know
By Dr. Mercola If you live in the US, where more than two-thirds of Americans receive fluoridated water, you may simply assume that it's always been that way. 10 Facts About Fluoride 1. More people drink fluoridated water in the US alone than in the rest of the world combined. 2. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there is no discernible difference in tooth decay between developed countries that fluoridate their water and those that do not.3 The decline in tooth decay the US has experienced over the last 60 years, which is often attributed to fluoridated water, has likewise occurred in all developed countries (most of which do not fluoridate their water). 3. Many assume that consuming fluoride is only an issue that involves your dental health. 4. The fluoride added to most water supplies is not the naturally occurring variety but rather fluorosilicic acid, which is captured in air pollution control devices of the phosphate fertilizer industry. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
Revolutionary Way To Be Healthy #3: Rage Against The Machine | Pilar Gerasimo
This spring, I attended an advance screening and press event for an exciting new documentary film called Fed Up. It's been playing in theaters across the country, and if you haven't already seen it, I hope you will. Fed Up is one of the most courageous and outspoken explorations of this country's obesity and chronic disease crisis to date. It's also a great example of how Revolutionary Act No. 3 -- "Rage Against the Machine" -- can inspire healthy transformation. The film is the brainchild of TV journalist and talk-show host Katie Couric, who co-executive produced and narrated the movie. The more Couric dug into the topic -- for herself, her family, and her audience -- the more she realized that the most essential and scientific truths about the drivers of obesity and disease simply were not reaching the American population. The trickle-down effect? As a result of that confusion, we're suffering runaway rates of obesity and disease. The resulting film is riveting. So what is the truth?
