Linda’s comments:  Finally a university does a study and admits they find that Fiber boosts our immune systems.  AND yes, a good Fiber can reduce inflammation associated with obesity related diseases.  The BEYOND FIBER I take has more than just fiber….please go here and read about the fiber I take twice daily… www.longevityplus.com <BEYOND FIBER>  This Beyond Fiber is part of the FIGHT protocol that I have been on for over 1 1/2 years.   I had tried over 15 different fibers before Beyond FIber.  I will never go back.  Healing our cells helps us to recover faster from different infections. 

A new University of Illinois study touts the benefits of soluble fiber - found in oats, apples, and nuts, for starters - saying that it reduces the inflammation associated with obesity-related diseases and strengthens the immune system.

Linda’s comments:  May be linked to heart disease??  Yikessssssssssssss….wake up folks, BPA is a deadly chemical that we are ingesting and having shoved at us for the sake of money.  This is why I preach to drink from glass bottles and not from cans or plastic bottles.  When they say “no significant association between BPA and diabetes or liver enzymes”, by whose standards???

Do I trust what they say when they say “May Be linked” very simple NO, I do not trust them…

Bottom-line BPA is NOT safe and we need to start standing up and say NO…when we stop purchasing products with BPA in them, then and only then will the industry listen…

Excerpt:

(OMNS, December 8, 2009) Vitamin C is commonly taken in large quantities to improve health and prevent asthma, allergies, viral infection, and heart disease [1,2]. It is non-toxic and non-immunogenic, and does not irritate the stomach as drugs like aspirin can. Yet vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) is acidic. So, a common question is, what are the effects from taking large quantities?

Ascorbic acid is a weak acid (pKa= 4.2) [3], only slightly stronger than vinegar. When dissolved in water, vitamin C is sour but less so than citric acid found in lemons and limes. Can large quantities of a weak acid such as ascorbate cause problems in the body? The answer is, sometimes, in some situations. However, with some simple precautions they can be avoided.

Acid in the Mouth
First of all, any acid can etch the surfaces of your teeth. This is the reason the dentist cleans your teeth and warns about plaque, for acid generated by bacteria in the mouth can etch your teeth to cause cavities. Cola soft drinks contain phosphoric acid, actually used by dentists to etch teeth before tooth sealants are applied. Like soft drinks, ascorbic acid will not cause etching of teeth if only briefly present. Often, vitamin C tablets are coated with a tableting ingredient such as magnesium stearate which prevents the ascorbate from dissolving immediately. Swallowing a vitamin C tablet without chewing it prevents its acid from harming tooth enamel.

Linda’s comment:  Excuse me but this is very common AND TRAGIC!!  I don’t know what it is going to take to get treatments for those suffering from Lyme.  I personally treated both Lyme infections with alternatives, BUT then again I live in a state that has many licensing boards so doctors don’t have to FEAR the authorities.  The AMA can’t touch the method of treatment that alternative doctor prescribe.  The tragic part of this is insurance companies will NOT pay for alternatives…unless of course, you live in Alaska and there many of the insurance companies are paying for alternative treatments and modalities….

A month ago, Bart Fenolio was told he had Lou Gehrig’s disease and had two months to live. Doctors advised his wife, Heidi, to take him home and call a hospice.

Linda’s comments:  Poor nutrition will and does cause many illness in adults and children.  Eating GMO foods, fast foods, junk foods, drinking any kind of soda regular and/or diet you are asking for troble.  For those young women out there who are thinking about having children, you need to think first about cleaning up your body before getting pregnant. An unborn baby is a toxic dump for the mother.  All the toxins and bad things she eats go right to the baby.  If the mother has amalgam fillings all that mercury goes straight to the unborn child. 

While diet/nutrition is one of the hardest things in the world it is one of the most important things for good health.  Today, we have to worry about all the GMO foods.  We have to be concerned about pesticides, herbicides, how it is prepared, packaged and stored before it gets to your mouth.

Using drugs to fix the problems that a poor diet has caused is only adding more problems to the mix.  Why add more toxins to our bodies.  Try cleaning up your lifestyle, and adding vitamins, herbals and supplements to your everyday living. 

Focus on cleaning out the toxins you have packed in and stored by getting on a lifelong daily detox, them supplementing the nutrients using a good quality supplement product.  Using drugs will only compound your problems.

(OMNS, November 13, 2008) A recent study suggested that statins might be used to avoid the effects of nutritional deficiency. Writing in the New England Journal of Medicine, the Jupiter group described a study of statin drugs in people with high C-reactive protein and low cholesterol. (1) High C-reactive protein levels are associated with inflammation and heart disease/stroke. The authors concluded that, in apparently healthy persons with elevated C-reactive protein levels, rosuvastatin (Crestor) significantly reduced the incidence of major cardiovascular events.

Linda’s comment.  All the more reason why you don’t eat GMO and moving into the world of organics is the safest way to save your health.   We must begin to make the move to cook only FRESH foods.  Soups are best is home-made and we all know that.  As consumers, WE CAN control the industry.  If consumers just STOP BUYING, then the industry will change.  It happened with baby bottles, so why can’t it happen with canned foods??  JUST SAY NO to canned foods.

A large new study confirms that people with severe mental disorders - such as schizophrenia or other psychotic disorders - are 25 percent to 40 percent more prone to die from heart disease than people without mental illness are.

Moreover, smoking and physical inactivity - behaviors that individuals potentially can change - significantly contribute to this increased risk of death, found researchers led by Amy Kilbourne, Ph.D. Continued

Linda’s Comment:  Dr Garry Gordon has had a great deal of anxiety over the amounts of heavy metal toxins that we are being exposed to on a daily basis….Dr Gordon developed the FIGHT program to help reduce our load of heavy metals and become more healthy.  Don’t wait until you are a dead person walking.  Do your research and find your own answers.

CHRONIC Low Level Lead Toxicity and our Health

It seems from this new report that my concerns about chronic lead toxicity are destined to become the concerns of mainstream medicine. All I have to do is live to over 100 and my approach to health problems might become mainstream so perhaps I need to keep working hard to stay ahead of mainstream medicine. Continued
