'Virtually no progress' in alleviating world hunger

I grew up after WW II and the big theme then was feeding enough food for Cox's Army. You'll understand if you grew up in a Southern family. Then came the Korean War. We were told to clean the plate as it was somehow connected to starving children in Korea.Then I found myself in Ballard, circa late 80s. That buffet, King's Table, if you know the neighborhood at all. I'd take 'Squeak' out for dinner there once in a while. He's the one that called them 'porksters'. Sad watching those fat liitle kids, rounder than an OOmpa-Loompa, load thier plates. Not with vegetables, mind you. And yes, even put the soft serve on top of their slab of roast beef! The fun really began watching them go for the second and later rounds.My kids used to be served up Cox's Army style when they were little. ...

Flu Shot Risk Too High, Here's What You Need To Do.

With two supportive articles we now can claim that even the medical profession is finally waking up to what we've said for years: DO NOT GET A FLU SHOT!What we recommend is plain, simple and inexpensive: Good old Calcium Ascorbate (vitamin C for those not in the know). No, we are not suggesting ascorbic acid, so make sure you don't buy on the cheap and you read the label first. Make sure you take enough and take it often. Drink lots of fluids, wash your hands frequently, use tissues, and get rest.If they push you toward the shot under the guise of preventing pneumonia, remember that high doses of vitamin A for a few days will keep you safe.

...there's not a lot of evidence...

So it's been antibiotics added to cattle feed, treat everything with antibiotics, spray your food with bacteria, and let you eat cloned meat and milk without knowing it.Gee, can anyone please tell me how it happens that C. difficile - that nasty bug a lot of people end up contracting in hospital - sounds an alarm when it's found in meat?And, make a point of reading the quoted paragraph from the illustrious Center for Disease Control. It might give hint to being a real voice of reason in the midst of a large pool of government lackeys.Quote: - "As far as we know, we're exposed to C. difficile all our life, from early on in life. And there's not a lot of evidence that being exposed over and over out in the community hurts you. It may even help you. The exception, of course, is when you're taking...

More to wonder about

It is interesting to note the continuing attack on parents who raise concerns about risks of harm to the health of their children when they oppose vaccination.I am one of those people who grew up when children were exposed to the standard childhood diseases without vaccination. So did my children, on the advice of our prudent pediatrician. As far back in medical history as 1926, physicians knew that the pertussis vaccine was responsible for neurological interference. Many of these wise people told us that actually the vaccine would be worse than the disease. Now perhaps we see the truth of those statements since clusters of the disease appear where most children have had parental pressure to vaccinate. These pysicians also found that when giving more than one vaccine at a time caused higher...

Have you figured it out yet?

Well here it is another year and no cure for cancer. So the Race for the Cure has scammed women once again. Maybe these two articles, along with the many on the Leaflady's Women's page will help you learn that cells phones and yearly mammography do help raise your risk for breast cancer, in a system that really does not have an interest in a cure."BITTER MEDICINE" - Jean McFarlane of Northwood, Middlesex (UK) found the motor nerves involved in movement had been damaged by radiotherapy for breast cancer. Her left hand is now "like a claw" & it does not work properly. Prof. Jane Maher, a consultant oncologist, predicts more long-term side-effects from radiotherapy treatment. She says that radiotherapy dangers are not properly understood. Side-effects can include bone fractures, hair loss,...

Go Get Your Garlic

Here it is, only decades after a Utah university microbiology department proved that garlic kills resistant strains of TB. It does much more than this too but the "scientific and medical" crowd is way behind on the facts.Garlic Blasts Worst Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria10-2-6Crush garlic 20 minutes before eating it...This creates more beneficial chemical compoundsCHICAGO (UPI) - Microbiology researchers said Wednesday the active ingredient in garlic combats two of the nastiest antibiotic resistant microbes faced by doctors and patients. The ingredient, a substance know as allicin, has been found effective in killing off methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus -- a microbe that has been especially troubling in skin and soft tissue wounds -- and in inhibiting growth of vancomycin-resistant...
