"...there are only about 5,500 new cases in the United States each year."
Formaldehyde Linked to Lou Gehrig's Disease
By Randy Dotinga Health Day Reporter
WEDNESDAY, April 16, 2008 (HealthDay News) -- New preliminary research suggests that exposure to the chemical formaldehyde, present in a variety of workplaces, could greatly increase a person's chances of developing Lou Gehrig's disease.
The findings aren't definitive, and only a few thousand Americans are diagnosed with the condition -- also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) -- each year.
Still, the study results deserve attention, especially since formaldehyde hasn't been considered an ALS risk factor before, said study author Marc Weisskopf, an assistant professor of epidemiology and environmental health at Harvard School of Public Health. "It's a result that we view as very intriguing and worthy of follow-up."
The findings were scheduled to be released Wednesday at the American Academy of Neurology annual meeting, in Chicago.
ALS progressively causes damage to the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Patients lose the ability to control their muscles, and they typically become paralyzed. There's no cure for ALS, and treatments have limited value.
Weisskopf and his colleagues examined statistics from an American Cancer Society study of more than 1 million people who were followed for 15 years.
The researchers first examined the participants' responses in 1982 to questions about exposure to 12 different chemicals, including formaldehyde.
Then they followed up between 1989 and 2004 to see what happened to those people.
The researchers found that 617 men and 539 women died of ALS during the study period. Only those who reported exposure to formaldehyde had a higher risk -- 34 percent higher -- of developing ALS.
Formaldehyde is used in the manufacture of a variety of products, including particle board, clothing, glues, cosmetics and shampoo. People who work in medical facilities and mortuaries may also encounter it on the job.
The pungent chemical has already been linked to higher rates of lung cancer and leukemia. It was not declared a probable human carcinogen at high exposure levels by the Environmental Protection Agency until 1987.
Those who reported more than 10 years of exposure to formaldehyde were almost four times more likely to develop ALS.
According to Weisskopf, the study design didn't allow him to estimate how many extra people may develop ALS because they are exposed to formaldehyde.
However, he said there are only about 5,500 new cases in the United States each year.
Researchers have considered pesticides to be a possible cause of ALS, but formaldehyde hasn't been raised as a villain before, Weisskopf said. It's not clear how it might be linked to development of the disease, but Weisskopf said it could set off brain damage by increasing the "stress" caused by oxygen.
It's possible that other factors besides formaldehyde may be causing ALS in the study participants. Indeed, Weisskopf said the findings don't confirm a cause-and-effect relationship: "That's very hard to do. But it does provide an avenue to get more insight into the disease process, and it may give us insight that's helpful in determining other avenues to take."
Dr. Catherine Lomen-Hoerth, director of the ALS Center at the University of California, San Francisco, said it's too early for anyone to worry too much about the findings.
The research "means studies can be done in ALS rats or mice to see if formaldehyde worsens the disease process," she said, but, "I don't think we understand environmental factors very well, and in what way they affect disease processes."
"If we knew more about what causes ALS, we might know more about how formaldehydes and other chemicals might [play a role]," she added.

"Regular formaldehyde exposure increased ALS risk by 34%.
In addition, the longer the self-reported exposure to
formaldehyde, the higher the risk for ALS.
Thus, compared with those reporting no exposure, the adjusted relative risk for ALS was 1.5 in individuals who reported less than four years of exposure, 2.1 in those with four to 10 years of exposure, and 4.1 in those with more than 10 years of exposure.
Overall, 2.6% of participants reported that they had been exposed to formaldehyde."
"Nearly 25% of beauticians reported that they were exposed to formaldehyde.
Pharmacists, morticians, radio/lab technicians, dentists, firemen, photographers, printers, doctors, and nurses also reported high rates of formaldehyde exposure. Individuals in these high-exposure jobs had a 28% greater risk for ALS."
"There are several possible mechanisms for formaldehyde neurotoxicity, said Dr. Weisskopf.
These include hyperexcitability of dorsal horn neurons, reduced excitability of the isolated phrenic nerve, prefrontal cortex/hippocampal neurotoxicity, a decrease in superoxide dismutase activity, an increase in malondialdehyde, and toxic tau protein misfolding."
"...other factors that might contribute to ALS were controlled for, including sex, smoking status, military service, level of education, alcohol intake, occupation, vitamin E supplement use, and exposure to other chemicals."

Formaldehyde Exposure May Pose Risk for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
CHICAGO -- Preliminary results suggest that exposure to the chemical formaldehyde may increase the risk for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), according to a report at the 60th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Neurology. Researchers found that people with more than 10 years of exposure to formaldehyde had a 4.1 times increased risk for ALS, compared with those who had no exposure.
“While pesticides have been thought to contribute to the development of ALS, this is the first time that formaldehyde has been identified as a potential risk factor,” commented Marc Weisskopf, PhD, Assistant Professor of Environmental and Occupational Epidemiology at Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.
Formaldehyde is used in particleboard and other wood products, permanent press fabrics, glues, photography chemicals, and other household products, such as cosmetics and shampoo. It is also used as a tissue preservative in medical laboratories and mortuaries and as an industrial disinfectant. About 20 years ago, the US Environmental Protection Agency designated high levels of formaldehyde as a probable carcinogen.
EXPOSURE TO CHEMICALS AND RISK FOR ALS
Prior research has suggested that environmental toxins, including
pesticides, may be associated with ALS. This notion has been backed by case-control and genetic studies implicating genes involved in pesticide detoxification, said Dr. Weisskopf. However, the findings have been contradictory, and there have been no large prospective studies to support this hypothesis.
In the present investigation, Dr. Weisskopf’s group prospectively examined the relationship between regular exposure to 12 types of chemicals and ALS in 987,229 individuals who participated in the American Cancer Society-sponsored Cancer Prevention Study II. Participants were asked about their exposure to chemicals, including formaldehyde, in 1982, and they were then followed for approximately 15 years. The researchers also analyzed exposure to asbestos, acids/solvents, coal or stone dust, coal tar pitch/asphalt, diesel engine exhaust, dyes, gasoline exhaust,
pesticides/herbicides, textile fibers/dust, wood dust, and x-ray/radioactive material.
Overall, 617 men and 539 women died from ALS during the follow-up period.
Regular formaldehyde exposure increased ALS risk by 34%.
In addition, the longer the self-reported exposure to formaldehyde, the higher the risk for ALS.
Thus, compared with those reporting no exposure, the adjusted relative risk for ALS was 1.5 in individuals who reported less than four years of exposure, 2.1 in those with four to 10 years of exposure, and 4.1 in those with more than 10 years of exposure. Overall, 2.6% of participants reported that they had been exposed to formaldehyde.
By contrast, there was limited evidence for an association between ALS and pesticides/herbicides.
The study also found that an increased risk for ALS was seen with certain jobs. Nearly 25% of beauticians reported that they were exposed to formaldehyde.
Pharmacists, morticians, radio/lab technicians, dentists, firemen, photographers, printers, doctors, and nurses also reported high rates of formaldehyde exposure. Individuals in these high-exposure jobs had a 28% greater risk for ALS.
There are several possible mechanisms for formaldehyde neurotoxicity, said Dr. Weisskopf.
These include hyperexcitability of dorsal horn neurons, reduced excitability of the isolated phrenic nerve, prefrontal cortex/hippocampal neurotoxicity, a decrease in superoxide dismutase activity, an increase in malondialdehyde, and toxic tau protein misfolding
A CAUSAL RELATIONSHIP FOR ALS AND FORMALDEHYDE?
Dr. Weisskopf noted that the longitudinal design of the study minimizes the possibility that the results are due to bias. Additional strengths of the study include its large size and uniform case ascertainment, as well as the fact that other factors that might contribute to ALS were controlled for, including sex, smoking status, military service, level of education, alcohol intake, occupation, vitamin E supplement use, and exposure to other chemicals.
Possible limitations of the study include small numbers in some exposure categories, as well as self-assessment of exposure. In addition, only mortality data were used to identify ALS cases. Dr. Weisskopf noted, however, that because death certificates have been reported to accurately identify 70% to 80% of ALS-related deaths, they might be a reasonable surrogate for ALS incidence, due to the short survival time associated with the disease.
Dr. Weisskopf emphasized that the findings are preliminary and do not establish a causal relationship between formaldehyde and ALS. “At the moment, it is premature to make broad public health recommendations, and corroboration of the data is needed,” he concluded.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and exposure to environmental toxins: an Australian case-control study.
Morahan JM, Pamphlett R.
Department of Pathology, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia.
It has been suggested that environmental toxins could be risk factors for sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS).
We therefore analysed epidemiological data on 179 SALS cases and 179 age-, ethnicity- and sex-matched controls in Australia using self-reporting questionnaires. SALS was associated with solvent/chemical exposure (OR = 1.92, 95% CI: 1.26-2.93), overall herbicide/pesticide exposure (OR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.03-2.41) and industrial herbicide/pesticide exposure (OR = 5.58, 95% CI: 2.07-15.06).
Exposure to herbicides/pesticides showed a dose-response effect.
All positive findings were more statistically significant in males.
These findings support those from northern hemisphere studies, indicating that environmental toxins can be risk factors for SALS. Copyright (c) 2006 S. Karger AG, Basel. PMID: 16946624

About Associate Professor Roger Pamphlett
To find a genetic cause for motor neuron disease that will enable gene therapy to halt this devastating condition.
Roger Pamphlett is a neurologist and neuropathologist who works with a team of molecular geneticists in trying to find a genetic cause for motor neuron disease.
Prof Pamphlett’s research in the pathogenesis of ALS started by examining the role of environmental agents. He published 20 papers on the relationship between heavy metals and ALS, using both human tissue and animal models.
This body of work showed that heavy metals enter motor neurons selectively, but that the metals by themselves are unlikely to cause ALS. This raised the possibility that genetic susceptibility to these environmental toxins may underlie ALS.
To look for genetic susceptibilities to ALS he has set up the Australian MND DNA Bank. He travels to all Australian mainland states collecting blood samples from people with ALS as well as controls. This Bank, supported by an NHMRC Enabling Grant, now contains over 1,400 DNA samples. Participants fill in detailed questionnaires to allow gene-environment studies to be undertaken. Using DNA from this Bank it has been shown that polymorphisms in the poliovirus receptor are more common in some forms of MND, and a variety of other genes that protect against toxins and viruses are under investigation.
Prof Pamphlett is now interested in novel genetic mechanisms that could underlie sporadic ALS, such as mutations that affect CNS cells predominantly (somatic mutations). To examine these possibilities he recruits ALS patients in NSW to donate their brains and spinal cords after they die to a Tissue Bank, and collaborates with other Banks in Australia and the UK to obtain further tissue samples.

BACKGROUND:
Several dietary factors have been associated with risk of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in case-control studies, but no prospective studies have investigated diet and ALS.
METHODS:
We prospectively assessed the association of selected foods and beverages with ALS mortality among participants of the Cancer Prevention Study II, a cohort of over 1 million men and women enrolled in 1982.
Habitual diet was assessed with a 44-item food frequency questionnaire.
Participant follow-up was conducted from 1989 through 2002 for ALS mortality.
RESULTS:
During the follow-up period, 862 cohort participants died of ALS.
The strongest finding was an inverse association between chicken consumption and risk of ALS (P for trend = 0.0006).
We also observed an increased risk of ALS among study participants with a high consumption of brown rice/whole wheat/barley (P for trend = 0.006) and decaffeinated coffee (P for trend = 0.01), and a decreased risk of ALS for high consumption of tea (P for trend = 0.02)and French fries (P for trend = 0.02); however, none of these latter associations remained significant after adjusting for multiple comparisons.
CONCLUSIONS:
Overall, these results do not provide convincing evidence that the investigated food items are related to ALS mortality.
The association observed between chicken consumption and ALS mortality should be assessed in other studies.

Systemic exposure to allergens resulting in a cutaneous eruption is known as systemic contact dermatitis (SCD).
Once sensitization occurs, varying exposures to antigens via multiple routes (including transepidermal routes, intravenous or intramuscular routes, inhalation, and ingestion) can result in systemic flare.
This article highlights the different categories of common
contactants, metals, medications, and plants, exposure to which leads to SCD.
A comprehensive approach that takes into account all possible routes of exposure is essential in diagnosing SCD and in helping patients successfully avoid their allergens. PMID: 18346390

Formaldehyde and Quaternium-15 positive reactions in the same patient."
"Our patient underscores the importance of appropriate patch testing and education.
Once we identified the allergy to formaldehyde and quaternium-15, we provided patient education materials regarding the common and not-so-common locations of these chemicals and cross-reactors.
We also gave the patient information on avoidance and safe
alternatives (see Table 5).
Fortunately, with technical advances, this student completed the
anatomy section via electronic learning tools.
By avoiding formaldehyde, including anatomy lab, FRP in her shampoo and cosmetics, and aspartame in her diet, this patient dramatically improved.
As with all contact dermatitides, the mainstay of treatment for
allergic contact dermatitis is avoidance."

Atopic dermatitis (AD) -- better known as eczema -- is the most common chronic skin disorder seen in infants and children.
In fact, the prevalence of this condition has risen dramatically
during the last three decades.
Currently, 15% to 20% of children in the United States are expected to experience this condition sometime during their lifetime, compared to 7% around 1960.
The negative impact of eczema is profound and insidious.
It affects both the patient who suffers from it and that patient's family members, and it does so on two important levels -- physical and emotional.
Physical:
Inflamed, itchy rashes can involve any and all of the skin surfaces and are frequently complicated by skin breakdown and bacterial, viral, and fungal infections.
It is linked to the development of life-long allergic conditions,
including asthma, food allergies, and rhinitis.
Any level of AD is extremely uncomfortable and, at times, painful.
Individuals with moderate to severe disease report that eczema hugely disturbs their sleep and impacts performance of daily activities, including adverse effects on school, sports
activities, work, and peer relationships.
In studies, individuals with eczema reported more negative impact on quality of life than those with insulin-dependent diabetes!
Emotional:
Patients and their families experience considerable emotional
distress, anxiety, and embarrassment because of people's response to this illness.
In fact, the emotional scarring on both patient and family members may outlast eczema's physical effects.
Parents especially suffer because it is difficult for children
experiencing this condition to understand that their parents cannot make the torment go away.
The stress of caring for these children is even greater than parents caring for a child with insulin-dependent diabetes.
Patients experience considerable discrimination and social isolation because of this illness.
People often stare, shiver with disgust or step back in fear from
those who have this condition.
The end result for patients: A life-time of struggle with their sense of worth and self esteem.

Similar levels of daily formaldehyde and formic acid, causes of birth defects, come from cigarettes, aspartame, and dark wines and liquors -- folic acid protects most people: Rich Murray 2008.07.15

"A smoker who goes through one pack a day will smoke 7,300 cigarettes a year, inhaling the equivalent of nearly 1 gram of formaldehyde
(yikes!)."
That's about 2.5 mg daily formaldehyde intake for 20 cigarettes, over
the 2 mg USA FDA alarm level for formaldehyde in average 2 liters
daily drinking water, while a single 12 oz can of diet soda also
results in about 2 mg formaldehyde toxic products in the body,
including formic acid, a notorious cause of birth defects.
Dark wines and liquors usually supply even more methanol, which the body always turns into formaldehyde and formic acid -- the major cause of "morning after" hangovers.
High levels of folic acid, a safe, affordable vitamin in fruits and vegetables, largely prevents formaldehyde and formic acid toxicity in most people.
It is certain that high levels of aspartame use, above 2 liters daily for months and years, must lead to chronic
formaldehyde-formic acid toxicity.
Fully 11 % of aspartame is methanol -- 1,120 mg aspartame in 2 liters diet soda, almost six 12-oz cans, gives 123 mg methanol (wood alcohol). The methanol is immediately released into the body after drinking .
Within hours, the liver turns much of the methanol into formaldehyde, and then much of that into formic acid, both of which in time are partially eliminated as carbon dioxide and water.
However, about 30 % of the methanol remains in the body as cumulative durable toxic metabolites of formaldehyde and formic acid -- 37 mg daily, a gram every month, accumulating in and affecting every tissue.
If only 10 % of the methanol is retained daily as formaldehyde, that would give 12 mg daily formaldehyde accumulation -- about 60 times more than the 0.2 mg from 10 % retention of the 2 mg EPA daily limit for formaldehyde in drinking water.
Bear in mind that the EPA limit for formaldehyde in drinking water is 1 ppm, or 2 mg daily for a typical daily consumption of 2 liters of water.
Formaldehyde and formic acid in FEMA trailers and other sources

The FEMA trailers give about the same amount of formaldehyde and
formic acid daily as from a quart of dark wine or liquor, or two
quarts (6 12-oz cans) of aspartame diet soda, from their over 1 tenth gram methanol impurity (one part in 10,000), which the body quickly makes into formaldehyde and then formic acid -- enough to be the major cause of "morning after" alcohol hangovers.
Methanol and formaldehyde and formic acid also result from many fruits and vegetables, tobacco and wood smoke, heater and vehicle exhaust, household chemicals and cleaners, cosmetics, and new cars, drapes,carpets, furniture, particleboard, mobile homes, buildings, leather... so all these sources add up and interact with many other toxic chemicals.

Cell Phones Linked To Brain Cancer
The potential link between mobile telephones and brain cancer is similar to the link between lung cancer and smoking -- something tobacco companies took 50 years to recognize, according to US scientists' warning.
Scientists are currently split on the level of danger the biological effects of the magnetic field emitted by cellular telephones poses to humans.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, Director of Research at The pH Miracle Living Center, "the Untied States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has already established that exposure to magnetic fields in excess of 3 milligause (mG's) are harmful to human health. Over 99% of all cell phones are emitting in excess of 3 mG's with the majority of cell phones emitting over 50 mG's and are potentially acid producing or carcinogenic. There is no such thing as a safe cell phone that can be used without potential acidic or toxic side effects."
However, society "must not repeat the situation we had with the relationship between smoking and lung cancer where we ... waited until every 'i' was dotted and 't' was crossed before warnings were issued," said David Carpenter, director of the Institute of Health and Environment at the University of Albany, in testimony before a subcommittee of the US House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Reform.
"Precaution is warranted even in the absence of absolutely final evidence concerning the magnitude of the risk" -- especially for children, said Carpenter.
Ronald Herberman, director of the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute -- one of the top US cancer research centers -- said that most studies "claiming that there is no link between cell phones and brain tumors are outdated, had methodological concerns and did not include sufficient numbers of long-term cell phone users."
Many studies denying a link defined regular cell phone use as "once a week," he said.
"Recalling the 70 years that it took to remove lead from paint and gasoline and the 50 years that it took to convincingly establish the link between smoking and lung cancer, I argue that we must learn from our past to do a better job of interpreting evidence of potential risk," said Herberman.
A brain tumor can take dozens of years to develop, the scientists said.
Carpenter and Herberman both told the committee the brain cancer risk from cell phone use is far greater for children than for adults.
Herberman held up a model for lawmakers showing how radiation from a cell phone penetrates far deeper into the brain of a five-year-old than that of an adult.
The committee were shown several European studies, particularly surveys from Scandinavia -- where the cell phone was first developed -- which show that the radiation emitted by cell phones have definite biological consequences.
For example, a 2008 study by Swedish cancer specialist Lennart Hardell found that frequent cell phone users are twice as likely to develop a benign tumor on the auditory nerves of the ear most used with the handset, compared to the other ear.
A separate study in Israel determined that heavy cell phone users had a 50 percent increased likelihood in developing a salivary gland tumor.
In addition, a paper published this month by the Royal Society in London found that adolescents who start using cell phones before the age of 20 were five times more likely to develop brain cancer at the age of 29 than those who didn't use a cell phone.
"It's only on the side of the head where you use the cell phone," Carpenter said.
"Every child is using cell phones all of the time, and there are three billion cell phone users in the world," said Herberman.
Dr. Young makes the following suggestions,
"1) Never put the cell phone directly to your ear.
2) Never use a wireless ear piece device, like a blue tooth. One of my brain cancer clients has a tumor the same shape of the blue tooth device.
3) Always use a wired ear piece device with a 3 to 4 inch blue tube leading to the ear.
4) Never let a child use a cell phone except in an emergency.
5) If possible have your cell phone and cell phone service tested with a Tri-Meter that tests the electrical and magnetic fields. You can also test your electric car and other appliances, like a hair dryer or dish washer for toxic electrical and magnetic fields.
6) Limit your cell phone use to emergency use only. Start using your land lines again.
Remember the cure from cancer, including brain cancer will not be found in its treatment but is found in its prevention."

Preventing and Reversing the Symptoms of Diabetes With Chamomile
Drinking chamomile tea daily with meals may help prevent the acidic complications of diabetes, which include loss of vision, nerve damage, and kidney damage. The findings of researchers in Japan could lead to the development of a new chamomile-based supplement for type 2 diabetes, which is spreading worldwide, they note. Their study appears in the Sept. 10 issue of the ACS’ Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, a bi-weekly publication.
In the new study, Atsushi Kato and colleagues point out that chamomile, also known as manzanilla, has been used for years as a medicinal cure-all to treat a variety of medical problems including stress, colds, and menstrual cramps. Scientists recently proposed that the herbal alkaline tea might also be beneficial for buffering sugar acids that cause diabetes, but the theory hasn’t been scientifically tested until now.
To find out, the researchers fed chamomile extract to a group of diabetic rats for 21 days and compared the results to a group of control animals on a normal diet. The chamomile-supplemented animals showed a significant decrease in blood glucose levels compared with the controls, they say. The extract also showed significant inhibition of both ALR2 enzymes and sorbitol, whose elevated levels are associated with increased acidic diabetic complications.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, director of research at the pH Miracle Living Center, "chamomile is a highly effective alkaline herb that helps to reduce blood sugar and blood alcohol. This in turn helps to maintain the alkaline design of the body and prevent and/or reverse the symptoms of Type I and Type II diabetes."

Lunatic Blames Blacks for mortgage crisis
Congresswoman Michele Bachman(Republican of course)From Minnesota actually blamed Blacks for the current mortgage crisis(CLICK HEADER TO READ ACTUAL ARTICLE) Now I'll level with you all....I've heard these rumblings for a few weeks now from friend,foe & racists.It's a bunch of nonsense..Blacks have historically been the scapegoat of this nations ills(Easy Target) But damn,give it a rest everytime things get rough or the economy goes in the tank it's almost a reflex to blame "People Of Color" Not just Blacks but Hispanics alike (Refer to America's Immigration issues) If the lenders,Wall Street(Gordon Geccos) & unqualified credit risks took these mortgages and blew it they should be EQUALLY accountable....EQUALLY. Blacks make up roughly 13% of the population / Hispanics about 15% / Whites 80%..now how in the Hell a small percentage of the 13% able to ruin a nations economy? Turn off FoxNews and use your brain!

Five Acidic Fatigue Factors That Lead To Stage 1 Acidosis
If you’re getting six to eight hours of sleep at night and you still have to drag yourself through eight seemingly endless hours of work during the day, it’s time for a fatigue check-up. Here are five acidic fatigue factors you might want to consider:
Acidic Fatigue Factor #1: Acid Blood or Anemia or I Eat Too Much Sugar and Animal Protein Dis-Ease.
You may be bleeding internally and not know it – bleeding ulcers, for instance, may be slowly dragging you down. Kidney dis-ease can also be the result of acidic blood or anemia. In women, acid caused fibroid tumors or acid uterine polyps can be the culprit. Blood loss can lead to a deficiency of hemoglobin, the alkalizing protein in the blood that carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. The end result when your organs and tissues don’t get enough alkalizing oxygen is fatigue. Other tell-tale acidic symptoms are irritability, dizziness, and feeling cold. A simple live blood test can show acidic blood anemia, and fatigue or Stage 1 acidosis begins to diminish after only a month of alkalizing and energizing with the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet.
Acidic Fatigue Factor #2: Hypothyroidism or I Eat Too Much Crap Dis-ese.
If you are depressed, sluggish, and generally run-down, you may have an under-active acidic thyroid due to an acidic lifestyle and diet. The thyroid is a tiny gland with a big job; it sits at the base of your neck and regulates the speed at which your whole body operates and manages its alkaline design and acidic functions. While hypothyroidism affects both men and women, by age sixty, 17 percent of all women will have a thyroid disorder and not know it, according to the American Thyroid Foundation. A live and dried blood test can show it, and an alkaline lifestyle and diet can chase fatigue and an under-active acidic thyroid away.
Fatigue Factor #3: Caffeine Acid Overload or I Drink Too Much Acid Dis-Ease.
The hard core acid caffeine is everywhere these days, from fancy coffee drinks to so-called “energy” drinks. Too much of a acid thing, though, can drag you down instead of giving you a boost. “In some patients, continued abuse results in fatigue,” says W. Stephen Pray, PhD, RPh. Cut out all acidic caffeine that is causing your fatigue, and keep in mind that caffeine is found in other highly acidic foods such as chocolate, black tea, green tea, energy drinks, and also in many medications.
Fatigue Factor #4: Food Allergies or I Eat and Drink Acid Dis-Ease,
Acidic food allergies or intolerances can cause acidic symptoms from headaches to hives, but the first symptom is often drowsiness or fatigue within ten to thirty minutes of digesting the acidic food or drink. Common offenders are milk, yogurt, ice cream, cheese, high fructose corn syrup, MSG, shellfish, and all forms of sugar. If you suspect an acidic food or drink intolerance, try an “acid elimination diet” that cuts out all acidic foods and drinks for a week or so. You will find that you will no longer have food allergies. Continued digesting of an acidic food or drink your body can’t tolerate can lead not only to chronic fatigue but other health problems as well.
Fatigue Factor #5: Sleep Apnea or I Am Full of Acid Dis-Ease.
You may only think you’re getting six to eight hours of sleep. You may actually stop breathing many times during the night, which awakens you just long enough to disturb your sleep, usually without your being aware of it. If you sleep alone, your only clue that you may have sleep apnea is chronic acid fatigue. If you share a bed with someone, snoring is also an acidic symptom. (They’ll let you know!) A sleep clinic can diagnose sleep apnea, and an alkaline lifestyle and diet can often get you back on the road to restful nights. If you don't stop the acid lifestyle and diet, an increased risk of stroke or heart attack is down the road instead of an alkaline peaceful sleep.
All five factors are symptoms of the first stage of latent tissue acidosis - enervation - and can easily be resolved with an alkaline lifestyle and diet.

Cholesterol Lowering Statin Drug Leads To Dis-Ease
A new study confirms that cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins) have adverse acidic effects on skeletal muscles, which are the muscles that allow the body to move. The study, conducted by the University of Alabama at Birmingham, found that statin drugs cause muscle cramping, fatigue, and potential myopathy (weakness) which are all symptoms of latent tissue acidosis.
Fatigue is stage 1 acidosis side effect most often reported, and roughly nine percent of users also report statin-related pain. Increasing the dosage of statins can make both symptoms worse.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, "you cannot have pain without acidity and acidity without pain. Bottom line, statin drugs are acidic and acids cause pain to the break down of body tissues."
In an attempt to find whether there exists a definite cause-and-effect link between these symptoms and statins, the study focused on the effect of statins on muscle progenitor cells, which are also called satellite cells (SC). These cells, which are central in skeletal muscle regeneration and repair, come into play following exercise or injury, at which time they are stimulated to proliferate.
Research zeroed in on possible antiproliferative effects of statins on satellite cells, since statins are known to have such an effect on other types of cells. The study addressed whether statins inhibited the critical role of SCs and thereby harmed the health of skeletal muscles.
Human SC cultures were exposed to simvastatin (a statin drug marketed under the trade name “Zocor”) in order to discover whether it interfered with the ability of SCs to divide and make new cells, which is what they must do in order to repair injured muscles. The simvastatin had a definite slowing effect on division by the cultured cells. By interpolating the results, the researchers found that taking the equivalent of a 40 milligram daily dose reduces by 50 percent the capacity of SCs to divide, and therefore definitely compromises their ability to proliferate.
A member of the research team said, “While these are preliminary data and more research is necessary, the results indicate serious adverse effects of statins that may alter the ability of skeletal muscle to repair and regenerate due to the anti-proliferative effects of statins.”
Further, the team member expressed special concern for older patients: “We are very interested in these effects in the older population. It is possible that older adults may not be able to distinguish between muscle pain related to a statin effect or an effect of aging and therefore adverse effects of statins in older adults may be under-reported. Therefore, our next step is to examine statins among older adults.”
Dr. Young further states, "the body produces cholesterol to buffer or neutralize excess metabolic and dietary acidity from poor lifestyle and dietary choice. Cholesterol protects healthy tissue, including the heart from breakdown. To reduce cholesterol unnaturally with acidic statin drugs may only lead to increased risk of fatigue, pain, stroke, and heart attack."

Sweet Poison - Part 2
Aspartame is the technical name for the brand names NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, and Equal-Measure. It was discovered by accident in 1965 when James Schlatter, a chemist of G.D. Searle Company, was testing an anti-ulcer drug.
Aspartame was approved for dry goods in 1981 and for carbonated beverages in 1983. It was originally approved for dry goods on July 26, 1974, but objections filed by neuroscience researcher Dr John W. Olney and Consumer attorney James Turner in August 1974 as well as investigations of G.D. Searle's research practices caused the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to put approval of aspartame on hold (December 5, 1974). In 1985, Monsanto purchased G.D. Searle and made Searle Pharmaceuticals and The NutraSweet Company separate subsidiaries.
Aspartame accounts for over 75 percent of the adverse reactions to food additives reported to the FDA. Many of these reactions are very serious including seizures and death.(1) A few of the 90 different documented symptoms listed in the report as being caused by aspartame include: Headaches/migraines, dizziness, seizures, nausea, numbness, muscle spasms, weight gain, rashes, depression, fatigue, irritability, tachycardia, insomnia, vision problems, hearing loss, heart palpitations, breathing difficulties, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, loss of taste, tinnitus, vertigo, memory loss, and joint pain.
According to researchers and physicians studying the adverse effects of aspartame, the following chronic illnesses can be triggered or worsened by ingesting of aspartame:(2) Brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, parkinson's disease, alzheimer's, mental retardation, lymphoma, birth defects, fibromyalgia, and diabetes.
Aspartame is made up of three chemicals: aspartic acid, phenylalanine, and methanol. The book "Prescription for Nutritional Healing," by James and Phyllis Balch, lists aspartame under the category of "chemical poison." As you shall see, that is exactly what it is.
What Is Aspartame Made Of?
Aspartic Acid (40 percent of aspartame)
Dr. Russell L. Blaylock, a professor of neurosurgery at the Medical University of Mississippi, recently published a book thoroughly detailing the damage that is caused by the ingestion of excessive aspartic acid from aspartame. Blaylock makes use of almost 500 scientific references to show how excess free excitatory amino acids such as aspartic acid and glutamic acid (about 99 percent of monosodium glutamate (MSG) is glutamic acid) in our food supply are causing serious chronic neurological disorders and a myriad of other acute symptoms.(3)
How Aspartate (and Glutamate) Cause Damage
Aspartate and glutamate act as neurotransmitters in the brain by facilitating the transmission of information from neuron to neuron. Too much aspartate or glutamate in the brain kills certain neurons by allowing the influx of too much calcium into the cells. This influx triggers excessive amounts of free radicals, which kill the cells. The neural cell damage that can be caused by excessive aspartate and glutamate is why they are referred to as "excitotoxins." They "excite" or stimulate the neural cells to death.
Aspartic acid is an amino acid. Taken in its free form (unbound to proteins) it significantly raises the blood plasma level of aspartate and glutamate. The excess aspartate and glutamate in the blood plasma shortly after ingesting aspartame or products with free glutamic acid (glutamate precursor) leads to a high level of those neurotransmitters in certain areas of the brain.
The blood brain barrier (BBB), which normally protects the brain from excess glutamate and aspartate as well as toxins, 1) is not fully developed during childhood, 2) does not fully protect all areas of the brain, 3) is damaged by numerous chronic and acute conditions, and 4) allows seepage of excess glutamate and aspartate into the brain even when intact.
The excess glutamate and aspartate slowly begin to destroy neurons. The large majority (75 percent or more) of neural cells in a particular area of the brain are killed before any clinical symptoms of a chronic illness are noticed. A few of the many chronic illnesses that have been shown to be contributed to by long-term exposure to excitatory amino acid damage include:
* Multiple sclerosis (MS)
* ALS
* Memory loss
* Hormonal problems
* Hearing loss
* Epilepsy
* Alzheimer's disease
* Parkinson's disease
* Hypoglycemia
* AIDS
* Dementia
* Brain lesions
* Neuroendocrine disorders
The risk to infants, children, pregnant women, the elderly and persons with certain chronic health problems from excitotoxins are great. Even the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB), which usually understates problems and mimics the FDA party-line, recently stated in a review that:
"It is prudent to avoid the use of dietary supplements of L-glutamic acid by pregnant women, infants, and children. The existence of evidence of potential endocrine responses, i.e., elevated cortisol and prolactin, and differential responses between males and females, would also suggest a neuroendocrine link and that supplemental L-glutamic acid should be avoided by women of childbearing age and individuals with affective disorders."(4)
Aspartic acid from aspartame has the same deleterious effects on the body as glutamic acid.
The exact mechanism of acute reactions to excess free glutamate and aspartate is currently being debated. As reported to the FDA, those reactions include:(5)
* Headaches/migraines
* Nausea
* Abdominal pains
* Fatigue (blocks sufficient glucose entry into brain)
* Sleep problems
* Vision problems
* Anxiety attacks
* Depression
* Asthma/chest tightness.
One common complaint of persons suffering from the effect of aspartame is memory loss. Ironically, in 1987, G.D. Searle, the manufacturer of aspartame, undertook a search for a drug to combat memory loss caused by excitatory amino acid damage. Blaylock is one of many scientists and physicians who are concerned about excitatory amino acid damage caused by ingestion of aspartame and MSG.
A few of the many experts who have spoken out against the damage being caused by aspartate and glutamate include Adrienne Samuels, Ph.D., an experimental psychologist specializing in research design. Another is Olney, a professor in the department of psychiatry, School of Medicine, Washington University, a neuroscientist and researcher, and one of the world's foremost authorities on excitotoxins. (He informed Searle in 1971 that aspartic acid caused holes in the brains of mice.)
Phenylalanine (50 percent of aspartame)
Phenylalanine is an amino acid normally found in the brain. Persons with the genetic disorder phenylketonuria (PKU) cannot metabolize phenylalanine. This leads to dangerously high levels of phenylalanine in the brain (sometimes lethal). It has been shown that ingesting aspartame, especially along with carbohydrates, can lead to excess levels of phenylalanine in the brain even in persons who do not have PKU.
This is not just a theory, as many people who have eaten large amounts of aspartame over a long period of time and do not have PKU have been shown to have excessive levels of phenylalanine in the blood. Excessive levels of phenylalanine in the brain can cause the levels of seratonin in the brain to decrease, leading to emotional disorders such as depression. It was shown in human testing that phenylalanine levels of the blood were increased significantly in human subjects who chronically used aspartame.(6)
Even a single use of aspartame raised the blood phenylalanine levels. In his testimony before the U.S. Congress, Dr. Louis J. Elsas showed that high blood phenylalanine can be concentrated in parts of the brain and is especially dangerous for infants and fetuses. He also showed that phenylalanine is metabolised much more effeciently by rodents than by humans.(7)
One account of a case of extremely high phenylalanine levels caused by aspartame was recently published the "Wednesday Journal" in an article titled "An Aspartame Nightmare." John Cook began drinking six to eight diet drinks every day. His symptoms started out as memory loss and frequent headaches. He began to crave more aspartame-sweetened drinks. His condition deteriorated so much that he experienced wide mood swings and violent rages. Even though he did not suffer from PKU, a blood test revealed a phenylalanine level of 80 mg/dl. He also showed abnormal brain function and brain damage. After he kicked his aspartame habit, his symptoms improved dramatically.(8)
As Blaylock points out in his book, early studies measuring phenylalanine buildup in the brain were flawed. Investigators who measured specific brain regions and not the average throughout the brain notice significant rises in phenylalanine levels. Specifically the hypothalamus, medulla oblongata, and corpus striatum areas of the brain had the largest increases in phenylalanine. Blaylock goes on to point out that excessive buildup of phenylalanine in the brain can cause schizophrenia or make one more susceptible to seizures.
Therefore, long-term, excessive use of aspartame may provid a boost to sales of seratonin reuptake inhibitors such as Prozac and drugs to control schizophrenia and seizures.
Methanol (aka wood alcohol/poison) (10 percent of aspartame)
Methanol/wood alcohol is a deadly poison. Some people may remember methanol as the poison that has caused some "skid row" alcoholics to end up blind or dead. Methanol is gradually released in the small intestine when the methyl group of aspartame encounter the enzyme chymotrypsin.
The absorption of methanol into the body is sped up considerably when free methanol is ingested. Free methanol is created from aspartame when it is heated to above 86 Fahrenheit (30 Centigrade). This would occur when aspartame-containing product is improperly stored or when it is heated (e.g., as part of a "food" product such as Jello).
Methanol breaks down into formic acid and formaldehyde in the body. Formaldehyde is a deadly neurotoxin. An EPA assessment of methanol states that methanol "is considered a cumulative poison due to the low rate of excretion once it is absorbed. In the body, methanol is oxidized to formaldehyde and formic acid; both of these metabolites are toxic." They recommend a limit of consumption of 7.8 mg/day. A one-liter (approx. 1 quart) aspartame-sweetened beverage contains about 56 mg of methanol. Heavy users of aspartame-containing products consume as much as 250 mg of methanol daily or 32 times the EPA limit.(9)
Symptoms from methanol poisoning include headaches, ear buzzing, dizziness, nausea, gastrointestinal disturbances, weakness, vertigo, chills, memory lapses, numbness and shooting pains in the extremities, behavioral disturbances, and neuritis. The most well known problems from methanol poisoning are vision problems including misty vision, progressive contraction of visual fields, blurring of vision, obscuration of vision, retinal damage, and blindness. Formaldehyde is a known carcinogen, causes retinal damage, interferes with DNA replication and causes birth defects.(10)
Due to the lack of a couple of key enzymes, humans are many times more sensitive to the toxic effects of methanol than animals. Therefore, tests of aspartame or methanol on animals do not accurately reflect the danger for humans. As pointed out by Dr. Woodrow C. Monte, director of the food science and nutrition laboratory at Arizona State University, "There are no human or mammalian studies to evaluate the possible mutagenic, teratogenic or carcinogenic effects of chronic administration of methyl alcohol."(11)
He was so concerned about the unresolved safety issues that he filed suit with the FDA requesting a hearing to address these issues. He asked the FDA to "slow down on this soft drink issue long enough to answer some of the important questions. It's not fair that you are leaving the full burden of proof on the few of us who are concerned and have such limited resources. You must remember that you are the American public's last defense. Once you allow usage (of aspartame) there is literally nothing I or my colleagues can do to reverse the course. Aspartame will then join saccharin, the sulfiting agents, and God knows how many other questionable compounds enjoined to insult the human constitution with governmental approval."(10) Shortly thereafter, the Commissioner of the FDA, Arthur Hull Hayes, Jr., approved the use of aspartame in carbonated beverages, he then left for a position with G.D. Searle's public relations firm.(11)
It has been pointed out that some fruit juices and alcoholic beverages contain small amounts of methanol. It is important to remember, however, that methanol never appears alone. In every case, ethanol is present, usually in much higher amounts. Ethanol is an antidote for methanol toxicity in humans.(9) The troops of Desert Storm were "treated" to large amounts of aspartame-sweetened beverages, which had been heated to over 86 degrees F in the Saudi Arabian sun. Many of them returned home with numerous disorders similar to what has been seen in persons who have been chemically poisoned by formaldehyde. The free methanol in the beverages may have been a contributing factor in these illnesses. Other breakdown products of aspartame such as DKP (discussed below) may also have been a factor.
In a 1993 act that can only be described as "unconscionable," the FDA approved aspartame as an ingredient in numerous food items that would always be heated to above 86 degree F (30 degree C).
Diketopiperazine (DKP)
DKP is a byproduct of aspartame metabolism. DKP has been implicated in the occurrence of brain tumors. Olney noticed that DKP, when nitrosated in the gut, produced a compound that was similar to N-nitrosourea, a powerful brain tumor causing chemical. Some authors have said that DKP is produced after aspartame ingestion. I am not sure if that is correct. It is definitely true that DKP is formed in liquid aspartame-containing products during prolonged storage.
G.D. Searle conducted animal experiments on the safety of DKP. The FDA found numerous experimental errors occurred, including "clerical errors, mixed-up animals, animals not getting drugs they were supposed to get, pathological specimens lost because of improper handling," and many other errors.(12) These sloppy laboratory procedures may explain why both the test and control animals had sixteen times more brain tumors than would be expected in experiments of this length.
In an ironic twist, shortly after these experimental errors were discovered, the FDA used guidelines recommended by G.D. Searle to develop the industry-wide FDA standards for good laboratory practices.(11)
DKP has also been implicated as a cause of uterine polyps and changes in blood cholesterol by FDA Toxicologist Dr. Jacqueline Verrett in her testimony before the U.S. Senate.(13)
Bottom line, aspartame is a highly acidic sweet poison that will make you sick, tired and fat.
Aspartame was approved for dry goods in 1981 and for carbonated beverages in 1983. It was originally approved for dry goods on July 26, 1974, but objections filed by neuroscience researcher Dr John W. Olney and Consumer attorney James Turner in August 1974 as well as investigations of G.D. Searle's research practices caused the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to put approval of aspartame on hold (December 5, 1974). In 1985, Monsanto purchased G.D. Searle and made Searle Pharmaceuticals and The NutraSweet Company separate subsidiaries.
Aspartame accounts for over 75 percent of the adverse reactions to food additives reported to the FDA. Many of these reactions are very serious including seizures and death.(1) A few of the 90 different documented symptoms listed in the report as being caused by aspartame include: Headaches/migraines, dizziness, seizures, nausea, numbness, muscle spasms, weight gain, rashes, depression, fatigue, irritability, tachycardia, insomnia, vision problems, hearing loss, heart palpitations, breathing difficulties, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, loss of taste, tinnitus, vertigo, memory loss, and joint pain.
According to researchers and physicians studying the adverse effects of aspartame, the following chronic illnesses can be triggered or worsened by ingesting of aspartame:(2) Brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, parkinson's disease, alzheimer's, mental retardation, lymphoma, birth defects, fibromyalgia, and diabetes.
Aspartame is made up of three chemicals: aspartic acid, phenylalanine, and methanol. The book "Prescription for Nutritional Healing," by James and Phyllis Balch, lists aspartame under the category of "chemical poison." As you shall see, that is exactly what it is.
What Is Aspartame Made Of?
Aspartic Acid (40 percent of aspartame)
Dr. Russell L. Blaylock, a professor of neurosurgery at the Medical University of Mississippi, recently published a book thoroughly detailing the damage that is caused by the ingestion of excessive aspartic acid from aspartame. Blaylock makes use of almost 500 scientific references to show how excess free excitatory amino acids such as aspartic acid and glutamic acid (about 99 percent of monosodium glutamate (MSG) is glutamic acid) in our food supply are causing serious chronic neurological disorders and a myriad of other acute symptoms.(3)
How Aspartate (and Glutamate) Cause Damage
Aspartate and glutamate act as neurotransmitters in the brain by facilitating the transmission of information from neuron to neuron. Too much aspartate or glutamate in the brain kills certain neurons by allowing the influx of too much calcium into the cells. This influx triggers excessive amounts of free radicals, which kill the cells. The neural cell damage that can be caused by excessive aspartate and glutamate is why they are referred to as "excitotoxins." They "excite" or stimulate the neural cells to death.
Aspartic acid is an amino acid. Taken in its free form (unbound to proteins) it significantly raises the blood plasma level of aspartate and glutamate. The excess aspartate and glutamate in the blood plasma shortly after ingesting aspartame or products with free glutamic acid (glutamate precursor) leads to a high level of those neurotransmitters in certain areas of the brain.
The blood brain barrier (BBB), which normally protects the brain from excess glutamate and aspartate as well as toxins, 1) is not fully developed during childhood, 2) does not fully protect all areas of the brain, 3) is damaged by numerous chronic and acute conditions, and 4) allows seepage of excess glutamate and aspartate into the brain even when intact.
The excess glutamate and aspartate slowly begin to destroy neurons. The large majority (75 percent or more) of neural cells in a particular area of the brain are killed before any clinical symptoms of a chronic illness are noticed. A few of the many chronic illnesses that have been shown to be contributed to by long-term exposure to excitatory amino acid damage include:
* Multiple sclerosis (MS)
* ALS
* Memory loss
* Hormonal problems
* Hearing loss
* Epilepsy
* Alzheimer's disease
* Parkinson's disease
* Hypoglycemia
* AIDS
* Dementia
* Brain lesions
* Neuroendocrine disorders
The risk to infants, children, pregnant women, the elderly and persons with certain chronic health problems from excitotoxins are great. Even the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB), which usually understates problems and mimics the FDA party-line, recently stated in a review that:
"It is prudent to avoid the use of dietary supplements of L-glutamic acid by pregnant women, infants, and children. The existence of evidence of potential endocrine responses, i.e., elevated cortisol and prolactin, and differential responses between males and females, would also suggest a neuroendocrine link and that supplemental L-glutamic acid should be avoided by women of childbearing age and individuals with affective disorders."(4)
Aspartic acid from aspartame has the same deleterious effects on the body as glutamic acid.
The exact mechanism of acute reactions to excess free glutamate and aspartate is currently being debated. As reported to the FDA, those reactions include:(5)
* Headaches/migraines
* Nausea
* Abdominal pains
* Fatigue (blocks sufficient glucose entry into brain)
* Sleep problems
* Vision problems
* Anxiety attacks
* Depression
* Asthma/chest tightness.
One common complaint of persons suffering from the effect of aspartame is memory loss. Ironically, in 1987, G.D. Searle, the manufacturer of aspartame, undertook a search for a drug to combat memory loss caused by excitatory amino acid damage.

The Fraud of Breast Cancer Research
This week, the online life sciences magazine The Scientist published an article whose implications for breast cancer research are profound and even unscientific.
Tumor cell lines - living cells taken from tumors and cultured in the laboratory - are the mainstay of cancer research at the most fundamental level, and are used as the model for studying tumor behavior and response to treatment. For the past 25 years, most of the laboratory research into metastatic breast cancer has been based on a single breast tumor cell line known as MDA-MB-435. At least 650 papers have been published on studies involving this cell line. Yet it has been revealed that this supposed breast
cancer cell line may in fact not be composed of breast cancer cells at all.
Instead, it appears that the cells are derived from melanoma. For 25 years, therefore, breast cancer research using this cell line - and it is one of the most widely used - has been based on an incorrect model.
Melanoma-derived tumor cells are not biologically equivalent to breast cancer cells; they have different molecular and genetic characteristics.
Cell lines - even when correctly sourced and identified - are an
intrinsically flawed model, and in the past I have often cautioned against the tendency to read too much into the results of cancer research done on tumor cell lines. The inferential leap from Petri dish to living human cancer patient is simply too large: an enormous number of drugs and experimental techniques show significant activity in cultured cancer cell lines, only to exhibit no benefit whatever when given to human subjects in a
clinical setting. Furthermore, cell lines can degenerate over time, becoming genetically unstable. But these are relatively small concerns compared to the discovery that MDA-MB-435, the cornerstone of breast cancer research, is not breast cancer at all.
We are constantly being reminded that this is the era of evidence-based medicine. But if the very cell lines which have provided the foundation for breast cancer research for the past quarter century have now been conclusively shown to be melanoma cells, not breast cancer, how solid or trustworthy is the evidence on which current breast cancer treatment is based? Evidence built on such flawed foundations more closely resembles
hearsay than science.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, "general cancer research, including breast cancer research has been focused on the wrong thing - the tumor and the cells that make tumors. This type of research is equivalent to the study of a bruise on an apple that has dropped from the tree rather then studying the cause of why the apple fell from the tree and how to prevent it from happening again. Cancer, including breast cancer is not a disease of the cell but an acidic disease of the body fluids. Cancer is an acidic liquid created from an acidic lifestyle and diet. Cancer researchers need to stop studying the effect that leads to cancerous cells and start studying the causes of a cancerous condition - such as what one is eating, drinking and thinking that is then leading to all cancerous conditions, including breast cancer."

Salt That Heals and Salt That Kills
The 40 Amazing Health Benefits of the North
Shore Great Salt Lake Liquid Young pHorever
pHlavor Salt, the purest salt on earth.
Salt is essential for life - you cannot live
without it. However, most people simply don't
realize that there are enormous differences
between the standard, refined table and cooking
salt most of you are accustomed to using and
healthy natural liquid salt.
These differences can have a major impact
on your staying healthy, or increasing your
risk of health challenges you want to avoid.
If you want your body to function properly,
you need whole liquid colloidal salt complete
with all-natural elements. Today's common
table salt is a poison that has nothing in
common with natural liquid colloidal salt.
Most common table salt is made up of chemicals
that pollute your body and wreak havoc on your
health. Pure Great Salt Lake liquid salt called
Young pHorever pHlavor Salt contains no toxins and
all 84 minerals and elements necessary for your
optimal health!
Your table salt is actually 97.5% sodium chloride
and 2.5% chemicals such as moisture absorbents,
and iodine. Dried at over 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit,
the excessive heat alters the natural chemical
structure of the salt causing the potential for a
myriad of health challenges in your body.
The Great Salt Lake Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor
Salt Is Over 250 Million Years Old
This is by far the purest salt available on earth
and is absolutely uncontaminated with any toxins
or pollutants.
This salt from the Great Salt Lake is known as
'white gold' because it contains eons of stored
sunlight. Together with pure mineral rich Rocky
Mountain water, Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor
Salt offers all the natural elements exactly
identical to the elements in your body - the
very same elements originally found existing
in the 'primal sea.'
Containing all of the 84 elements found in your
body, the benefits of natural Young pHorever Liquid
pHlavor Salt includes:
1) Regulating the water content throughout your body.
2) Balancing excess acidity from your cells, particularly
your brain cells.
3) When you use pure Great Salt Lake Liquid pHlavor
Salt, you receive 250,000,000 years of accumulated
sunlight and energy, plus all the natural minerals
your body needs for restoring balance and life force.
4) Balancing your blood sugar levels and helping to
reduce your aging rate.
5) Assisting in the generation of hydroelectric energy
in cells in your body.
6) Absorption of food particles through your intestinal
tract.
7) Help in clearing mucus plugs and phlegm from your
lungs - particularly useful in asthma and cystic
fibrosis.

reversing sinusitis.
9) Acts as a strong natural antihistamine and helps clear
up congestion in your sinuses.
10) Prevention of muscle cramps.
11) Making the structure of your bones firm -
osteoporosis can occur when your body needs
more salt and takes it from your bones.
12) Regulating your sleep - it is a natural hypnotic.
13) Maintaining your libido. When you us pHlavor salt
empirical studies shows that oxygen increase which
helps erectile dysfunction (ED).
14) Preventing varicose veins and spider veins
on your legs and thighs.
15) Stabilizing irregular heartbeats - in conjunction
with water it is actually essential for the regulation
of your blood pressure.
16) Stabilizing your blood sugars.
17) Regulating your healthy blood pressure.
18) Regulating all your endocrine system and buffering
acidic hormones from glandular function.
19) Providing the matrix for all energy needs of the

a cigarette. If you want to stop smoking then start
orally spraying Young pHorever pHlavor Salts.
22) Empirical evidence shows that taking Young
pHorever pHlavor Salts stops the cravings for
acids like coffee or tea.
The Typical Table And Cooking Salt In Your
Grocery Store Has Been 'Chemically Cleaned.'
What remains after typical salt is 'chemically
cleaned' is sodium chloride - an unnatural
chemical form of salt that your body recognizes
as something completely foreign. This form of
salt is in almost every preserved product that
you eat. Therefore, when you add more salt to
your already salted food, your body receives
more salt than it can dispose of.
This is important as over 90% of the money
that people spend on food is for processed food.
Typical table salt crystals are totally isolated
from each other. As a food, table salt is absolutely
useless, and can potentially act as a destructive
poison. In order for your body to try to metabolize
table salt crystals, it must sacrifice tremendous
amounts of energy.
Inorganic sodium chloride upsets your fluid
balance and constantly overburdens your
elimination systems, which can impair your
health.
When your body tries to isolate the overdose
of salt you typically expose it to, water
molecules must surround the sodium chloride
to break them up into sodium and chloride ions
in order to help your body neutralize them.
To accomplish this, water is taken from your
cells and you have to sacrifice the perfectly
structured water already stored in your cells
in order to neutralize the unnatural sodium
chloride.
This results in dehydrated cells that can
prematurely break them down.
You Are Losing Precious Perfectly Structured
Intracellular Water When You Eat Normal
Table Salt?
For every gram of sodium chloride that your
body cannot get rid of, your body uses twenty-three
times the amount of cell water to neutralize the salt.
Eating common table salt causes excess fluid in your
body tissue, which can contribute to:
* Unsightly cellulite.
* Rheumatism, arthritis and gout.
* Kidney and gall bladder stones.
When you consider that the average
person consumes 4,000 to 6,000 mg of
sodium chloride each day, and heavy users
can ingest as much as 10,000 mg in a day,
it is clear that this is a serious and pervasive
issue.
So Why Are Many People Still Using Table Salt?
Because well over 90% of the world's salt is
being used directly for industrial purposes
that require pure sodium chloride. The
remaining percentage is used for preserving
processes and ends up on your kitchen table.
With the use of rigorous advertising, the salt
industry is successful in convincing you there
are actually health advantages to adding
potentially toxic iodine and fluoride to salt.
In addition, your table salt very often
contains dangerous preservatives not
required to be listed on the packaging.
Aluminum hydroxide is often added to
improve the ability of table salt to pour.
Aluminum is a light alloy that deposits into
your brain - a potential causative of
Alzheimer's disease.

Today's table and cooking salt is void
of the vital trace minerals that make this
Young pHorever pHlavor liquid salt so precious.
Liquid colloidal salt has spent over 250 million
years maturing under extreme tectonic pressure,
far away from exposure to any impurities.
The Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt's unique
structure also stores vibrational primal energy.
All of the liquid salt's inherent minerals and
trace elements are available in colloidal
form - meaning they are so small your
cells can readily absorb them.
The Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt from
the Great Salt Lake does not burden your body
as other salts do. It is very difficult for your
body to absorb too much crystal salt since
there are powerful and effective feedback
loops that regulate this process. Natural
Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor salt always has
a balancing effect and does not contribute to
high blood pressure like typical table salt.
With chemical dumping and toxic oil spills
polluting the oceans at an alarming rate,
most of today's sea salt is not nearly as
healthy as it used to be. Great Salt Lake
Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt is pure
salt that is harvested from beds of the
North Shore of the Great Salt Lake with
zero environmental pollutants.
See How to Use the Young pHorever Liquid pHlavor Salt
Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt's array of
elements forms a compound in which each molecule
is inter-connected. The connectedness allows the
vibrational component of the 84 trace elements
present in the salt to be in harmony with each
other and adds to the balancing effect of the salt.
When it comes to the holistic power of natural salt,
nothing compares to the Liquid Young pHorever
pHlavor Salt.
Here's why:
It is the highest grade of natural salt on
the planet at a 26% solution or sol.
Under an electron microscope, Young pHorever
liquid Salt has a perfect crystalline structure.
It is harvested by hand and naturally
washed and sun baked in the beds of the
North Shore of the Great Salt Lake.
Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt is immune to
electromagnetic fields.
Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt contains no
environmental pollutants.

Key Minerals in the Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor
Salt restores your body's balance.
Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt is salt in its
native form, with all its vibrational energy
intact and it helps your body return to a state
of balance. Not having balanced electrolytes shifts
your body out of homeostasis - the balance of
chemicals that is conducive to the body's function.
The Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt has an
amazing array of important trace minerals and
elements including potassium, calcium
and magnesium that help your body
achieve balance by restoring fluids and
replenishing your supply of electrolytes
whenever you sweat heavily.
Great Salt Lake Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt
vs. Sea Salt and Rock Salt: A Crystal Comparison
Many people believe sea salt is a healthy
alternative to table salt, but this is no longer
the case. The oceans are being used as dumping
grounds for harmful toxic poisons like mercury,
PCBs and dioxin. Reports of oil spills polluting
the sea are becoming more frequent. With
some 89% of all the sea salt producers now
refining their salt, today's sea salt simply
isn't as healthy as it used to be.
If you were to look into a microscope at sea
salt you would see it has irregular and isolated
crystalline structures disconnected from the
natural elements surrounding them. Thus,
however many vital minerals it may contain,
they cannot be absorbed by your body unless
the body expends tremendous energy to vitalize
them. Your body's net gain is small compared
to the great loss of energy.
Because the crystalline structure of the Liquid
Young pHorever pHlavor salt is balanced, it is not
isolated from the 84 inherent mineral elements, but
is connected to them in a harmonious state.
This means the energy content in the form
of minerals can be easily metabolized by your
body. When you use this pure liquid salt it has
a vital energetic effect. Your body gets an ample
net gain with zero energy loss.
Mined salt, or rock salt, is also a poor substitute
for Liquid Young pHorever pHlavor Salt. While natural
rock salt comes close to beings holistically intact
and is more valuable than industrial table salt, from
a biophysical as well as bio-chemical perspective,
it holds little value.
The elements contained in rock salt lack
sufficient compression to be included in the
crystal web, but are only attached to the
surface and in the gaps of the crystalline
structure. It is the considerable pressure
that brings the elements to a colloidal state -
where your cells can readily absorb them.
The valuable elements found in rock salt are
useless because your body cannot absorb
and metabolize them.
You Can Also Use the Liquid Young pHorever
pHlavor Salt As a Salt Therapy
Besides using this salt on your food and to
cook with, it has multiple other exciting
benefits as well.
I highly recommend you regularly use the

Shore Great Salt Lake Liquid Young pHorever
pHlavor Salt, the purest salt on earth.
Salt is essential for life - you cannot live
without it. However, most people simply don't
realize that there are enormous differences
between the standard, refined table and cooking
salt most of you are accustomed to using and
healthy natural liquid salt.
These differences can have a major impact
on your staying healthy, or increasing your
risk of health challenges you want to avoid.
If you want your body to function properly,
you need whole liquid colloidal salt complete
with all-natural elements. Today's common
table salt is a poison that has nothing in
common with natural liquid colloidal salt.
Most common table salt is made up of chemicals
that pollute your body and wreak havoc on your
health. Pure Great Salt Lake liquid salt called
Young pHorever pHlavor Salt contains no toxins and
all 84 minerals and elements necessary for your
optimal health!
Your table salt is actually 97.5% sodium chloride
and 2.5% chemicals such as moisture absorbents,
and iodine. Dried at over 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit,
the excessive heat alters the natural chemical
structure of the salt causing the potential for a
myriad of health challenges in your body.

The Typical Table And Cooking Salt In Your
Grocery Store Has Been 'Chemically Cleaned.'
What remains after typical salt is 'chemically
cleaned' is sodium chloride - an unnatural
chemical form of salt that your body recognizes
as something completely foreign. This form of
salt is in almost every preserved product that
you eat. Therefore, when you add more salt to
your already salted food, your body receives
more salt than it can dispose of.
This is important as over 90% of the money
that people spend on food is for processed food.
Typical table salt crystals are totally isolated
from each other. As a food, table salt is absolutely
useless, and can potentially act as a destructive
poison. In order for your body to try to metabolize
table salt crystals, it must sacrifice tremendous
amounts of energy.
Inorganic sodium chloride upsets your fluid
balance and constantly overburdens your
elimination systems, which can impair your
health.
When your body tries to isolate the overdose
of salt you typically expose it to, water
molecules must surround the sodium chloride
to break them up into sodium and chloride ions
in order to help your body neutralize them.
To accomplish this, water is taken from your
cells and you have to sacrifice the perfectly
structured water already stored in your cells
in order to neutralize the unnatural sodium
chloride.
This results in dehydrated cells that can
prematurely break them down.
You Are Losing Precious Perfectly Structured
Intracellular Water When You Eat Normal
Table Salt?
For every gram of sodium chloride that your
body cannot get rid of, your body uses twenty-three
times the amount of cell water to neutralize the salt.
Eating common table salt causes excess fluid in your
body tissue, which can contribute to:
* Unsightly cellulite.

When you consider that the average

No More Viagra and No More ED
No more, Viagra! Researchers in Italy report that an ancient Chinese herbal remedy known as "horny goat weed" shows potential in lab studies as source to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). The study, which provides scientific evidence supporting the herb's well-known use as a natural aphrodisiac, is scheduled for the October 24 issue of ACS' Journal of Natural Products, a monthly publication.
In the new study, Mario Dell'Agli and colleagues point out that Viagra (sildenafil) and several other prescription drugs are now available for ED, or male impotence. ED affects an estimated 18 million men in the United States alone. Studies show, however, that these drugs may cause acidic side effects such as headache, facial flushing, stomach upset, and visual disturbances.
To find better treatments, the scientists studied herbal extracts reputed to improve sexual performance without negative side effects from acidic drugs. Scientists exposed the substances to an enzyme or metabolic acid that controls blood flow to the penis and whose inhibition results in an erection. Of the extracts tested, "horny goat weed" was the most potent inhibitor of the enzyme or metabolic acid. By chemical modification of icariin, the active ingredient purified from the extract, the scientists obtained a derivative with activity similar to Viagra and a potential for fewer side effects because it targeted the protein more precisely than sildenafil.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, "an acidic lifestyle and diet is the primary cause of erectile dysfunction (ED). Metabolic and dietary acids cause the blood to thicken, leading to poor circulation, energy loss and then erectile dysfunction (ED). The key to a healthy and lasting sex life free from erectile dysfunction (ED), regardless of age, is reducing metabolic and dietary acids with an alkaline lifestyle and diet. It is that simple."
May I suggest the Young pHorever C.O.W.S. Starter Pack as the nutritional support to improve blood circulation, energy, and prevent erectile dysfunction.

Over-Coming Chronic Hypoxia, Sleep Apnea and Erectile Dysfunction
Sleep apnea, a symptom of an over-acidic lifestyle and diet may cause a treatable form of erectile dysfunction (ED) in men with the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a condition in which breathing stops up to 400 times for 10 to 30 seconds during sleep each night. Researchers at the University of Louisville believe the episodes of oxygen deprivation may trigger ED.
Researchers exposed male mice to a lack of oxygen--chronic intermittent hypoxia or CIH--during sleep. Within a week they showed 55 percent less sexual activity and after a month, the length of time between attempts at mating increased 60 times. When given Cialis, an erectile dysfunction drug, the mice's sexual activity improved.
Researchers concluded that testosterone levels weren't affected by oxygen deprivation, so something else must have caused the downswing in sexual activity. They found that the mice who were subjected to sleep apnea had lower levels of an enzyme needed to make nitric oxide and speculated that nitric oxide was needed for blood flow essential to erections.
"Even relatively short periods of CIH...are associated with significant effects on sexual activity and erectile function," Dr. David Gozal, professor of pediatrics at the University of Louisville, wrote in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.
Although researchers didn't recommend men with sleep apnea use ED drugs, they said that using CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) machines that treat sleep apnea can also help with erectile dysfunction.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, "hypoxia or oxygen deprivation is the result of "sticky blood" or "rouleau" which is caused by an acidic lifestyle and diet. Any deficiency of oxygen results in poor circulation and poor circulation causes oxygen deprivation that leads to symptoms of cold hands, cold feet, light headedness, muddle thinking, hypertension, sleep apnea and erectile dysfunction."
Overcoming oxygen deprivation is as simple as alkalizing the blood and tissues with an alkaline lifestyle and diet. The best way to do this is to start eating like C0WS. COWS is an acronym that stands for chloropyhll, oil, water and salt.
To begin, the "C" in the C.O.W.S. acronym stands for Chlorophyll, Clay and Cleansing. You take chlorophyll to build the blood, clay to buffer metabolic and dietary acids and you cleanse the bowels with mineral salts of sodium bicarbonate and magnesium oxide.

http://phmiracleliving.com/p-356-young-phorever-phlush-tm-powder-200-grams.aspx
The "O" stands for oil and oxygen. The oil you ingest should be unsaturated from hydrogen ions, such as hemp, flax, pomegranate, olive and avocado oil which are some of my favorites. You can increase oxygen by exercising, deep breathing, taking antioxidant supplements (Co-Q-10, Glutathione) and using bicarbonate of salts. A person who is 70 kilos or 154 pounds should ingest at least 100 grams daily of unsaturated oil. You would ingest more unsaturated oil if you weigh more and less if you weigh less."

The "W" stands for water that is saturated with hydroxyl ions or electrons. A person who is 70 kilos or 154 pounds should drink at least 4 liters of 9.5 pH/-150 mV alkaline water daily. You can also add 2 ounces of pure organic chlorophyll to each liter of water and/or organic low heat dehydrated antioxidant fruits, vegetables and grass powder.

And finally, the "S" stands for salt and sunshine. One of the most important things that one can do for incredible health and energy is put alkalizing mineral salts back into the diet.
Dr. Young states, "ingesting whole unprocessed colloidal mineral salts are critical for a healthy bowel, blood, heart, brain and body. The body cannot live without mineral salts. Salt is necessary in order to transport energy to the cells. The body uses salt to maintain its alkaline design by buffering metabolic and dietary acids. I suggest eating at least 10 to 12 grams of natural mineral colloidal sea salt a day for a body weight of 70 kilos or 154 pounds. To energize the body and to strengthen bones, muscles and the nervous system I recommend at least 30 minutes of direct sunshine daily."

"The pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet" leading to health, energy and vitality, free from sleep apnea and erectile dysfunction, is as simple as eating like C.O.W.S.," states Dr. Young.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a condition in which breathing stops up to 400 times for 10 to 30 seconds during sleep each night. Researchers at the University of Louisville believe the episodes of oxygen deprivation may trigger ED.
Researchers exposed male mice to a lack of oxygen--chronic intermittent hypoxia or CIH--during sleep. Within a week they showed 55 percent less sexual activity and after a month, the length of time between attempts at mating increased 60 times. When given Cialis, an erectile dysfunction drug, the mice's sexual activity improved.
Researchers concluded that testosterone levels weren't affected by oxygen deprivation, so something else must have caused the downswing in sexual activity. They found that the mice who were subjected to sleep apnea had lower levels of an enzyme needed to make nitric oxide and speculated that nitric oxide was needed for blood flow essential to erections.
"Even relatively short periods of CIH...are associated with significant effects on sexual activity and erectile function," Dr. David Gozal, professor of pediatrics at the University of Louisville, wrote in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.
Although researchers didn't recommend men with sleep apnea use ED drugs, they said that using CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) machines that treat sleep apnea can also help with erectile dysfunction.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, "hypoxia or oxygen deprivation is the result of "sticky blood" or "rouleau" which is caused by an acidic lifestyle and diet. Any deficiency of oxygen results in poor circulation and poor circulation causes oxygen deprivation that leads to symptoms of cold hands, cold feet, light headedness, muddle thinking, hypertension, sleep apnea and erectile dysfunction."
Overcoming oxygen deprivation is as simple as alkalizing the blood and tissues with an alkaline lifestyle and diet. The best way to do this is to start eating like C0WS. COWS is an acronym that stands for chloropyhll, oil, water and salt.
To begin, the "C" in the C.O.W.S. acronym stands for Chlorophyll, Clay and Cleansing. You take chlorophyll to build the blood, clay to buffer metabolic and dietary acids and you cleanse the bowels with mineral salts of sodium bicarbonate and magnesium oxide.

The "O" stands for oil and oxygen. The oil you ingest should be unsaturated from hydrogen ions, such as hemp, flax, pomegranate, olive and avocado oil which are some of my favorites. You can increase oxygen by exercising, deep breathing, taking antioxidant supplements (Co-Q-10, Glutathione) and using bicarbonate of salts. A person who is 70 kilos or 154 pounds should ingest at least 100 grams daily of unsaturated oil. You would ingest more unsaturated oil if you weigh more and less if you weigh less."

Liquid Salt Stops The Addicition To Cigarettes
Did you know that the addiction to smoking is a sugar addiction not a nicotine addiction?
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, in Valley Center, California, "freshly picked green tobacco leaves are hung to dry and then coated with sugar! The addiction to tobacco is a sugar addiction not a nicotine addiction. That is why a smoker who is trying to stop smoking craves sugar!" The craving for sugar is the need for salt. When a smoker who wants to stop smoking eats salt instead of sugar when they crave a cigarette they lose their addiction for colloids of sugar in the tobacco smoke and the need to smoke burnt sugar."
In a clinical study to stop smoking, 34 out of 37 smokers quit smoking and have not had a cigarette for over 6 mouths while using Dr. Young's pHlavor salt. This is over a 90% success rate.
Dr. Young states, "if you want to stop smoking then start an alkaline diet and spray Young pHorever pHlavor salt in your mouth 6 to 9 times a day. You will not only lose your addition to smoking that can cause lung cancer but you will start getting healthy and fit with colloidal pHlavor salt in your diet."
The following is a summary from Mehmet Ozevlat who conducted the study.
===============================================================
Hi Dr Young,
I would like to give a testimony on your magical pHlavor salt.
For almost 20 years I have been helping people to give up smoking and to lose weight. To date I have seen around 3000 people for stopping smoking.
The tools that I started my career with was mainly Hypnosis. For about 10 years my success rate had been around 70% for stopping smoking- stopping smoking means not smoking for at least 6 months after the clients last session with me. This figure was not satisfactory for me as I continued searching for more answers. I incorporated NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and other behavioral techniques which increased the success rate to around 74% but I still failed about 26% of the time. I started focusing on what the patients experienced just before they relapsed. What made them start smoking again?, What were the feelings and sensations? After all, once they had their session with me, they
walked out of my consulting room and were on their own. What I learned was that those who started smoking again reported a massive craving to smoke again. But what was the craving? Nicotine? Sugar? Whatever it was I had to find a way of disturbing this pattern.
Six months ago I gave a group session to a group of 37 smokers using the same techniques that I have always used but this time I introduced your Magical pHlavor to them. The instructions were that they should spray it into their mouth 6-9 times a day especially if they experienced any craving for smoking. Now I didnt have that many bottles with me but they went ahead and ordered them from your website and other websites. I monitored them and after 6 months and these are the results:
Out of 37 smokers who started the program 34 are still not smoking!! That's a massive 92% Success Rate.
You may say that 37 may not represent the other 3000 patients that I have seen in the last 20 years but one thing for sure that those who stayed off the cigarettes in this group reported that pHlavor salt was the single most important tool that curbed the craving for a cigarette.
As always Dr Young, I am fascinated with your studies, your products and your passion to pursue with your New Biology.
I recommend pHlavor salt to any smoker to is serious about wanting to give up. My next mini-research is to try to curb the appetite for those who want to lose weight.
Apologies for the lengthy email.
God Bless you a Million Times Dr Young.
Kindest of Regards
Mehmet Ozevlat
