Why buying domestic products is healthy 101 Health Steps

(101 Health Steps) Natural sodium, found in food, is not at all similar to sodium chloride (salt), and this is a major common misunderstanding. The human organism does not need sodium chloride at all, it needs sodium found in fruits and vegetables.

However, sodium chloride does have similarities to cyanide and arsenic because it is also a protoplasmic poison, which means that it kills cells on contact by disrupting the cells integrity – all 75 trillion.

Eliminating sodium chloride (salt) from your diet will especially be beneficial for those with edema and high b lood pressure, obesity, and hypertention. The list goes much longer than the one mentioned, and it could be stated that most illnesses are affected by sodium chloride in their diet.

A healthy individual would regect salt in a diet via vomitting or diarrhea; however, an unhealthy person does not have the energy to do this, so their body must deal with it in other ways.

The body reacts to the salt as it would any poison. Salt does not retain water in the body; the body dilutes the salt in order to reduce the damages caused by the salt. Further, it stores it somewhere where damage can be deferred to a later date with hopes that the body will have the ability to eliminate it before further damaged it caused.

According to findings by Victoria Bidwell in her book THE HEALTH SEEKERS’ YEARBOOK, “one ounce of ingested salt holds 3 quarts of water – or 6 pounds of excess bodily water and fluid – in suspension. Consider… an ounce of salt in the body will “seize and hold” 3 quarts of water. This means that… salt holds 70 tims its weight in water!!!”

Putting salt on a wound will show any individual how the body reacts to salt.

Salt is addictive and come with withdrawal symptoms when the human organism tries to eliminate it from the diet.

Biochemistry tells us that sodium chloride separates into individual ions in the body. After the stomach does what it can, it sends the sodium and chloride to the liver then kidneys because those organs can only do so much. Finally, a large amount of water molecules are used to surround each of these now two damaging ions in a stored area of the body. This build up of water molecules is why individuals with a lot of salt in safe storage have swollen legs, hands, feel, and puffy eyes.

Moreover, potassium is quickly lost in the urine to offset the absorption of salt by tissue. Low potassium means low blood sugar, which means low energy and irratibility.

To top it all off, when we cook our food, we destroy the potassium that was originally found in the food leaving the human organism with that much less to fight the battle.

Even an athlete, which most people are not, cannot avoid the high blood pressure and strokes caused by the constricting blood vessels that come from salt (sodium chloride). Anemia and atrophy of the lungs are a sure reaction caused by the lack of oxygen in the blood vessles (THE HEALTH HAZAREDS OF SALT, Andrew and Cheryl Zupko). “Acne, stomach ulcers, edema have all been linked to excessive salt intake (Zupko A & C).”

Zupko A & C also state, “A severe enough potassium deficiency caused by excessive salt intake will cause the muscles, valves, and arteries along the entire coronary route to adapt by shrinkin g, calcifying, and scarring, all the which untimately destroy tissue integrity… heart failure.”

In summary, sodium is an essential nutrient, sodium chloride is not; it is a combination of sodium and chloride that is toxic to the human organism. Sodium is found in the perfect ratio in fruits and vegetables; sodium chloride is unusable to the human organism and acts as a cell killer.

(101 Health Steps) The following is taken from Victoria Bidwell’s book, “The Health Seeker’s Yearbook.” Bidwell section on the poisons in baby food is a message to be taken seriously. She states from her research that:

“1. High levels of lead in formula milk can cause lead-poisoning.”

“2. Most formulas are laced with toxic chemical additives.”

“3. Artificial formula milks contribute directly to obesity due to the high refined sugar content. These drinks are habit-forming and lead to sugar addiction and to sugar disorders that can last a lifetime.”

“4. Baby foods are highly salted, to match the taste buds of the Average American Parent who is a “saltaholic.” High salt levels contribute directly to cardiovascular disease at this early age and create a SAD child-salt-addict.”

“5. Formula milk does not contain all the components in the correct balance to ensure healthy, normal growth in an infant.  Formulas do not change with the hormonal and nutritional needs of the growing baby, as does mother’s milk.”

“6. A formula with cow’s milk contains too much fat and calcium, and not enough tryptophan and lecithin for the human child.”

“7. Commerical/ cow’s/ formula milks have been heated and precessed. Being difficult for babies to digest, they contribute to allergies/rashes/colds/nausea…and other signs of Toxemia.”

(101 Health Steps) The connection between high blood pressure medicine and tylenol are not apparent to the general public because of their lack in information on the subject of health and wellness. The article will explain the connection using examples that should assist in clearing any clouds.

So, you have high blood pressure. First of all, you caused it; we know this because if you were to change your diet to a low-fat, raw, plant-based diet, the high blood pressure would go away – try it! A theory can only be judged if it has been experienced and tested to the fullest.

Because of their trust in strangers that are ‘qualified’ in medicine [not health], individuals use medicine [toxic, poisonous drug chemicals] to lower cholesterol instead of addressing the cause [a poor diet and lifestyle]. Other sources of this ‘knowledge’ [theoretical knowledge to be more accurate; aka propaganda knowledge] comes from the pharmaceutical companies themselves, which promote directly to the people via media [TV commercials, TV shows, film, and news].

Now the comparison: High blood pressure is due to high fat in the blood and arterial walls. The blood has difficulties getting through to the brain and the other vital organs in order to survive and live, so the body, in its wisdom, increases the pressure in order to get the blood to it destination and maintain life; however, the doctors in their lack of wisdom and understanding of the cause of disease, reduce the blood pressure, which in turn reduces the blood to the vital organs, which further eventually leads to death. Of course it is not the drugs that kill you, it is the lack of blood flow to your vital organs. The cause is not addressed.

Tylenol is an an amazing poisonous neurological chemical because it controls your body. In times of high temperatures, for example, it neurologically crosses wires in the body that convinces the body that it is well when it is not. The body then lowers the temperature, which it increased to destroy bacteria, due to dangerously high levels of bacteria due to toxemia, making us “feel well” and act as though we are when we are not and should be acting accordingly. Feeling sick is the body’s way of keeping you in bed and at rest. “Medicine” does not address the bacteria, convinces you that you are well, and adds damage to the already toxic body with itself, which further adds to the problem. The illness will return over and over and over again until it decides to come back as something more dangerous in order to get the individuals attention.

The similarities between high blood pressure (HBP) medicine and Tylenol is that they both force our body to die by neurologically adjusting our bodies wisdom to survive. The HBP medicine addresses the effect instead of the cause by reducing the blood flow, and the Tylenol does the same by making us feel as though we have no headache when we do and lowering our temperature when it should be high in order to destroy bacteria. The two “medicine” both address the effects, which creates an ongoing “chasing the tail” solution, which perpetually keeps us sick and on these toxic, poisonous chemicals masked as “medicine.”

Teaching our children to respect the wisdom of their bodies at a young age is a lot easier than teaching them when the have been brainwashed by the status quo and so polluted medically that they would prefer toxins to nature’s doctors. If we want things to change, we must reach out to the children and educate them before they are brainwashed by the system that is 100 years behind in the comprehension of health and blinded by profit.

We as a specie have been around for 10 million years and have survived without drugs for 99.9999999999% of the time we have existed here. In the past 50 years, disease has been reaching new highs and names for effects are surpassing 10,000. If we wish to survive, we must go back to the fundamentals and discard the “modern medicine” ideologies. If you were to bet on something, would you not take the bet that is 99.99999999999% affective?

The connection between high blood pressure medicine and tylenol 101 Health Steps

(101 Health Steps) Yes, soap does a great job destroying bacteria. However, is this what we truly should be doing? Is our ignorance on life due to profit and misinformation leading us down the wrong road?

The people who study life on earth say that the human organism has been around for 10,000,000 years (10 Million years); about 3000 years ago our ancestors started using rose water to clean their hands and body, which is not a treat compared to what is used now, and only a for a hundred years or less have we, as a brilliant species, been using chemicals designed by scientists to clean our hands.

However, less than a hundred years, compared to 10 million years, is less then a fraction of a percent of our existence here on planet earth.

Questions:

•    How did we possibly survive to last this long without toxically chemical soap?
•    Could we have survived this long because we did not use chemical soap for as long as we have?
•    Has water been a good enough cleaner for us?
•    What have all the other animals on the planet used to keep themselves clean?
•    Are we the only species that need to be cleaned by something other than soap?
•    if we use toxic chemicals to clean our hands, what do we use to clean off the chemicals?
•    Is water sufficient to clean toxic chemicals off our hands?
•    How can water be sufficient in cleaning toxic chemicals, however, not qualified to clean off dirt?

Soaps destroy bacteria. The human organism requires bacteria [good and bad] to survive. The good bacteria is designed to keep the bad bacteria at bay. Destroying the good bacteria weakens the body for its job of protecting us from the bad bacteria, and this is similar to destroying bacteria with drugs in our body to “protect us from bacteria,” the results are the same thing.

The problems is not the bad bacteria but the low levels of good bacteria we now have, which gives us the health problems we have today.

The chemicals in soap is toxic [incomprehensible to the average individual without a scientific dictionary], and all a person has to do is take the time to simply search on a search engine for the chemicals and they will find this statement to be true, unless you are the type of person that refuses to accept information that is not the status quo in order to protect your comfortable, current belief system.

Destroying good bacteria causes disease; keeping and increasing good bacteria causes health. Disease has not become apparent since we started sanitizing everything and destroying our good bacteria. The scare tactics that were created years ago at the same time that the polio vaccine was created, which was introduced to the people as polio was on its way down but given the title as the solution of polio, even though it is not the case and many people died and were injured due to the polio vaccine.

Solution: wash your hands and the hands of your children with rose water or a water spray bottle filled with water and a few drops of the essential oil of your choice if you feel that water is not enough of a cleaner, even though is has been enough for almost 10 million years. Teach your children to fear chemicals for what they truly are: poisons and toxins; learn about the chemicals and teach your children while they are still at an early age to accept information from you. When they are older it is more difficult to teach them things that they learn from the media and the school system: teach them now or someone or something else [Corporations] will. Finally, thank the water that cleans you and be grateful for the water, which will give the water a positive charge [find a search engine and look it up if this sounds wacky to you] to ensure a cleaner job.

Is soap good for us? 101 Health Steps

(101 Health Steps) A recent article published on Yahoo Health presented information stating that breast cancer is a growing threat to the poor according to a study. This is the same findings that the documentary House of Numbers found when they analyzed the remarkable relationship between AIDS and the poor. According to the findings from House of Numbers, unhealthy individuals are remarkably and very clearly at more danger of getting AIDS. The difference with the poor and the malnourished individuals on the SAD diet, which is the Standard American Diet, is that the poor have different kinds of disease than the wealthy, industrialized nations.

“The number of cases and deaths from breast and cervical cancer is rising in most countries across the world, especially in poorer nations where more women are dying at younger ages, according to a global study of the diseases.” – Yahoo Health post

The poor generally do not get the same diseases as the rich, and the rich do not get the same diseases and illnesses as the poor. This is clearly explained in “The China Study” by T. Colin Campbell. Disease is inevitable when people are malnourished and in unsanitary environments. A healthy, strong body is not prone to those diseases.

The study posted on Yahoo fails to highlight that the number of breast cancer victims are still a growing concern, and the fact is that just because the women are being diagnosed with their diseases are found early, it does not mean that they last any longer than they would if the cancer was found at a later time. Meaning that individuals simply get diagnosed earlier giving the impression that they are living longer.

(101 Health Steps) Eating the wrong food, when we are sick (or not), creates byproducts that are toxic. These toxic byproducts takes the attention of the body from other health issues, which slows down the healing process. The reason the body gets sick in the first place is because the body has more toxins than it can handle.

Eating foodstuff that we are physiologically and biochemically designed for does not have these byproducts. Eating fruit and selected vegetables raw, whole, organic, fresh, and ripe do not come with toxic byproducts, which give the body the ability to focus and repair negative health issue created by wrong food as well as other co-factors such as  poor emotional stability, emotional stress, and physical stress.

(101 Health Steps) For a healthy Christmas meal, how about a banana with mango and a few strawberries?

One days caloric requirements depends on weight: As an example, if one weighed 150lbs, they would require 1500 calories as their base, plus 20% for daily requirements and an additional 20% to cover their early morning exercise regiment bring the total daily calories to 2100 calories. Assuming they ate about 1000 calories for the first meal of their day, their second/ last meal of their day should be about 1100 calories.

Christmas Dinner meal: Banana, mango, strawberry delight

Bananas: (100g = 89) 800g of bananas = 712 calories

Mangoes: (1 medium = 207g) 2 medium mangoes = 414 grams = 260 calories

Strawberries: 1 cup, halves (152.0 g) = 152 grams = 98 calories

Total calories: 1070

Directions: Place all in a bowl all mixed together. Some of the strawberries and banana can be blended as desired for a sauce.

This meal is guaranteed to give you all you need from a nutritional point of view as well as preserving your energy for the long night ahead. Physiology recommends this be eaten alone on an empty stomach.

Christmas dinner meal: Banana, mango, strawberry delight 101 Health Steps

(101 Health Steps) Many people think that just because they are young and appear fit (stress on the work appear), they can abuse their body by eating deep-fried and pan-fried food; they seem to think that oily food will not hurt them, and believe that they are not able to have heart disease simply because they exercise and look fit. This is simply not true at all.

When oil is heated, it becomes rancid and poisonous to the human body. It is refined; it does not contain any other nutrient. It is 100% fat. This toxic abuse stresses the nervous system and takes away the nervous systems ability to heal the every day damage that is received uncontrollably, such as pollution.

Oil is 100% fat; it is refined: stripped of macro- and micro-nutrients (Vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, enzymes, co-enzymes, phytonutrients,  essential fatty acids, protein and carbohydrates).

The following excerpt from the book The China Study supports the claim that most people that are fat definitely have some stage of heart disease, and they must do something to prevent a heart attack before it is too late.

Building heart disease by eating fried food is a self-affliction more dangerous than most peoples simple mind can understand. It is suggested that those people change before it is too late. If you eat oily food, fatty food, junk food, and cannot see your abdomen muscles, you are fat and well on your way to heart disease (Not to mention under-muscled).

(Excerpt from The China Study) “Over the next twenty-four hours, 3,000 Americans will have heart attacks, roughly the same number of people who perished in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.”

“The heart is the centerpiece of life and, more often than not in America; it is the centerpiece of death. Malfunction of the heart and/ or circulation system will kill 40% of Americans, more than those killed by any other injury or ailment, including cancer. Heart disease has been our number one cause of death for almost one hundred years. This disease does not recognize gender or race boundaries; all are affected. If you were to ask most women what disease poses the greatest risk to them, heart disease or breast cancer, many women would undoubtedly say breast cancer. But they would be wrong. Women’s death rate from heart disease is eight times higher than their death rate from breast cancer.

If there is an American game, it is baseball; an American dessert, apple pie. If there is an American disease, it is heart disease.”

“At the end of the Korean War, a landmark scientific study was reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Military medical investigators had examined the hearts of 300 male soldiers killed in action in Korea. The soldiers, at an average age of twenty-two years, had never been diagnosed with heart problems. In dissecting these hearts, researchers found startling evidence of disease in an exceptional number of cases. Fully 77.3% of the hearts they examined had gross Evidence of heart disease. (In this instance, gross means large.)”

“That number, 77.3%, is startling. Coming at a time when our number one killer was still shrouded in mystery, the research clearly demonstrated that heart disease develops over an entire lifetime. Furthermore, almost everyone was susceptible! These soldiers were not couch- potato slouches; they were in top condition in the prime of their physical lives. Since that time, several other studies have confirmed that heart disease is pervasive in young Americans.”

“But what is heart disease? One of the key components is plaque. One out of twenty diseased men had so much plaque that 90% of an artery was blocked. Why hadn’t these soldiers had a heart attack already? After all, only 10% of the artery was open. How could that be enough? It turns out that if the plaque on the inner wall of the artery accumulates slowly, over several years, blood flow has time to adjust. Think of blood flowing through your artery as a raging river. If you put a few stones on the sides of a river every day over a period of years, like plaque accumulating on the walls of the artery, the water will find another way to get to where it wants to be. Maybe the river will form smaller streams over the stones.”

“When the artery becomes blocked over such a short period of time, there is little chance for collateral blood flow to develop. When this happens, blood flow downstream of the rupture is severely reduced and the heart muscles don’t get the oxygen they require. At this point, as heart muscles cells start to die, heart pumping mechanisms begin to fail, and the person may feel a crushing pain in the chest or a searing pain down into an arm and up into the neck and jaw. In short, the victim starts to die. This is the process behind most of the 1.1 million heart attacks that occur in America every year. One out of three people who have a heart attack will die from it.”

“We now know that the small to medium accumulation of plaque, the plaque that blocks less than 50% of the artery, is the most deadly.”

Section 2

“No study has been more influential than that of the Framingham Heart Study. After World War I, the National Heart Institute was created with a modest budget and a difficult mission. They didn’t know why these lesions developed or how they led to heart attacks. In search for these answers, the National Heart Institute decided to follow a population in the population and to see who got heart disease and who didn’t.”
“Over 5,000 residents of Framingham, both male and female, agreed to be poked and prodded by scientists over the years so that we might learn something about heart disease.”

“The Framingham Heart Study developed the concept of risk factors such as cholesterol, blood pressure, physical activity, cigarette smoking and obesity. Because of the Framingham Study, we now know that these risk factors play a prominent role in the causation of heart disease. Over 1,000 scientific papers have been published from this study, and the study continues to this day, having now studied four generations of Framingham residents.”

“The shining jewel of the Framingham Study is its findings on blood cholesterol. When this study was started, most doctors believed that heart disease was an inevitable wearing down of the body, and we could do little about it. Our hearts were like car engines. As we got older, the parts didn’t work as well and sometimes gave out. By demonstrating that we could see the disease in advance by measuring risk factors, the idea of preventing heart disease suddenly had validity. Researchers wrote, it appears that a prevention program is clearly necessary. We spend over 30 billion dollars a year on drugs to control these risk factors and other aspects of cardiovascular disease.”

“Early research led to the alarming conclusion that we have some of the highest rates of heart disease in the world. The Papua New Guinea Highlanders, for example, pop up in research quite a bit because heart disease is rare in their society. American men died from heart disease at a rate almost seventeen times higher than their Chinese counterparts. Why were we succumbing to heart disease in the sixties and seventies, when much of the world was relatively unaffected?”

“Quite simply, it was a case of death by food. The cultures that have lower heart disease rates eat less saturated fat and animal protein and more whole grains, fruit and vegetables. In other words, they subsist mostly on plant foods while we subsist mostly on animal foods. For example, Japanese men who live in Hawaii or California have a much higher living in Japan.”

“Smoking habits are not the cause because men in Japan, who were more likely to smoke, still had less coronary heart disease than the Japanese Americans. In simple terms, animal foods were linked to higher blood cholesterol; plant foods were linked to lower blood cholesterol.”
“Research ahead of its time.”

“One of the most progressive doctors was Dr. Lester Morrison of Angeles. He started a study in 1946 (two years before the Framingham Study) to determine the relationship to dietary fat intake to the incidence of atherosclerosis. In his study he instructed fifty heart attack survivors to maintain their normal diet and fifty different heart attack survivors to consume an experimental diet.”

“After eight years, only twelve of fifty people eating their normal American Diet were alive (24%). In the diet group, twenty-eight people were still alive (56%), almost two and one-half times the amount of survivors in the control group. After twelve years, every single patient in the control group was dead. In the diet group, however, nineteen people were still alive, a survival rate of 38%.”

“Today, this epic battle between defenders of the status quo and advocates of diet is as strong as ever. Mostly, the status quo has been protected. Despite the potential of diet and disease prevention, most of the attention given to heart disease has been on mechanical and chemical intervention for those people who have advanced disease. Diet has been pushed aside. Surgery, drugs, electronics devices and new diagnostic tools have stolen the spotlight.”

“We now have coronary bypass surgery, where a healthy artery is pasted over a diseased artery, thereby bypassing the most dangerous plaque on the artery. The ultimate surgery, of course, is the heart transplant, which even utilizes an artificial heart on occasion. We also have a procedure that doesn’t require cracking the chest plate open, called coronary angioplasty, where a small balloon is inflated in a narrowed, diseased artery, squishing the plaque back against the wall, opening up the passage for increased blood flow. We have defibrillators so that few can observe individual arteries without having to expose the heart. The past fifty years have truly been a celebration of chemicals and technology (as opposed to diet and prevention).”

(101 Health Steps) On November 21, 2011, The Globe and Mail posted an article titled, “Eating more often helps keep weight down: study.” This study is a great example of propaganda knowledge at its best due to its failures to highlight related facts on the subject.

The article fails to bring to light the facts that eating more often clearly does not give the stomach [and related organs for digestion] a chance to rest. Snacking all day long does not give the stomach the rest it requires [NEEDS]. Similar to running all day without giving your legs and heart a rest all day, the stomach also requires a rest from digesting. It was not designed to digest all day long [and all night long for that matter].

Findings by such health leaders such as Victoria Bidwell (Bidwell V 2009, The Health Seeker’s Yearbook) teaches us how we are to eat only twice a day [and hours before the sun goes down or hours before one is ready to go to sleep]. Two decent sized meals properly divided to total the amount of calories an individual needs per day depending on their size and desired weight, is what has been recommended.

So if an individual requires 2000 calories, the meals can be 1000 each or 500 for the first one and 1500 for the second one [The latter is a better choice, so the stomach can break the fast (break-fast) gently with the first meal]. We fast at night because when we do not eat it is called fasting, which we do each and every night. Of course those meals should be low fat, raw, whole, ripe, fresh, organic (when possible) and plant-based.

As an added bonus, eating two meals a day will obviously help the larger people lose weight assuming that they eat the amount of calories they require in a day and 5-10% of those calories to come from fat. The rest time given to the body will give it a chance to focus on the health issues [Obesity is a health issue].

The human organism is vegan; we are all vegan. The fact is that only some of us act that way, thanks to centuries of the wrong influence and the lack of innovation by the masses.

Conclusion: Findings lead us to skip the snacks and eat 2 meals a day.

The Vitamin Water Deception – exposes truth behind this non-healthy beverage 101 Health Steps

Are pillows healthy? This is a questions that people rarely ask. Usually individuals ask which pillow is healthy. However, if we follow the old adage, “what is good for a baby is good for us,” we realize that a new born baby does not use or need a pillow. They sleep on their backs and eventually on their stomachs. Why have we decided to use pillows? Could the corporations that profit in pillow sales have something to do with it? Would they care if we all stopped using pillows?

We are on our feet all day long, and if we are not on our feet, we are sitting down. Further, when we are not standing or sitting, we have our head propped up by a pillow; our circulatory system is constantly going against gravity to bring blood and nutrients to our brain, which is a very important organ. It is very interesting that when we read as far back in history as the time of Buddha, we learned that he has been teaching that individuals sleep on a flat mat without a pillow.

Hygienists suggest that the human organism benefits from an angle that puts the head in a lower position to the heart and the heart at a lower position to the feet; they recommend this to be done daily.

Pillows these days are full of chemicals (dyes) and may be filled with the wrong things, which may further harm the human organism, which can be totally avoided if they were eliminated. Businesses tend to do what ever they can to cut costs, including using the cheapest material they can find regardless of health damage: that is what recalls are for, which of course occurs after companies make billions of dollars first (Please watch the documentary The Corporation if you have difficulties believing this statement).

This health step is another money saving step that benefits the body almost as much as it does the wallet. In addition, as the saying goes, “We develop or are born with everything we need to survive and thrive.” We do not develop pillows anatomically, they are created by man and machines.

Editor’s note: (Typical confusion explained) Coffee is linked with lower depression risk in women. Does this mean that all women should all go out and start drinking four cups a day of this protoplasmic poison? Should women go out and ignore the other damages that come with coffee drinking? This is the type of article that confuses individuals; however, if individuals had been taught to think, there would not be any confusion here. The article states how coffee boosts energy; however, it manages not to mention that this boost is artificial and forces the body to over use the adrenal glands; coffee drinkers are adrenal junkies. This study leads individuals to understand that being artificially stimulated is good when all it does is turn people into adrenal junkies. It is stated that coffee protects against depression, but is being high all day a good solution for depression versus addressing the issues (cause)? Just because some weak, falsely directed study most probably  funded by some corporation’s best interest makes a statement, it does not mean it is beneficial. So what if it happens to lower depression, how about the fact that it is an addictive protoplasmic poison. The article states, “…the study does not prove that coffee lowers depression risk;” however, the easy to falsely interpret/ incomplete study (as stated: “many more studies will be needed to show whether coffee can be used to prevent depression”) was released for the public to read and form a limited and guided opinion.

(Reuters) – Women who drink four cups of coffee a day are 20 percent less likely to become depressed than women who rarely drink coffee, U.S. researchers said on Monday.

Caffeine is the most frequently used central nervous system stimulant in the world, and coffee consumption accounts for about 80 percent of caffeine use. Read more (But not necessary)

Editor’s note: The article needs to mention that this increase of colon cancer in men has everything to do with the fact that men eat more meat than women, and that data and literature shows a very clear and remarkable relationship between diet and colon cancer. The article further needs to mention the foremost authority in cancer/ diet related studies by T. Colin Campbell, PhD and the like and their research that supports the mentioned relationship of diet and cancer. In addition, this article below needs to question the cause instead of the effect or screening as though it were a preventative measure. All screening does is start individuals on drugs earlier and gives those who play God the ability to give their victims an expiry date.
