Aspartame Linked to Cancer

Here’s something to chew on, if you don’t mind getting cancer!

Can chewing gum lead to cancer? That is an important question to ask now that the “safety” of aspartame has been “proved” by science and aspartame is a common ingredient in most chewing gum.

According to Dr. Morando Soffritti, who led a rigorous three-year study on the effects of aspartame on rats, the artificial sweetener, which is sold as commercial brands such as NutraSweet and Equal and also commonly used in chewing gum and diet sodas, can lead to both leukemia and lymphoma when the aspartame converts to formaldehyde!

Many people believe Gulf War illness was due to diet sodas with the aspartame being super heated by the desert air and thereby converting the aspartame to formaldehyde and creating a toxic environment in the body. Since no attempt is made to refrigerate chewing gum and since nearly all chewing gum has aspartame, this is a potential hidden danger we all need to be aware of…especially for our children.

For more information on aspartame and its dangers, you can read the articles “New Research Links Nutrasweet to Leukemia and Lymphoma” and “Aspartame: What You Don’t Know Can Hurt You” on Dr. Mercola’s natural health newsletter website.

Obesity A Risk Factor For H1N1 Virus aka “Swine Flu”

Imagine dying from the flu not because you’re old or weak or sickly—no, just because you need to lose 20 pounds or so!

That’s right. According to the latest data, obesity plays a part in the risk factors that lead to fatal influenza! Slimming down may be your best way to stop the deadliest flu bug, so maybe it’s time to take weight loss seriously!

If you need a strategy to lose excess weight or help someone you know lose excess weight, you can read my Weight Loss Battle Plan which details a healthy way to do so.

Also, if you want to support your body’s defense and build your immune system, you can find it from nature in the form of plant parts and extracts!

I am proud to offer what I believe to be an excellent compilation of immune system supporting foods, Immuno-MAX™ .

Immuno-MAX™ is a synergistic combination of the most trusted immune-enhancing herbs from various continents and cultures from around the world. It is made of Aloe 200x, Arabanogalactan, Green Tea extract, Colostrum, Self-Heal, Astragulus and Cat's Claw to maximize your natural defenses. You can find out more about it by reading this fact sheet.

Lastly, here are some tips to keep you healthy!

Top Ways To Avoid Fatal Influenza

  • Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.

  • Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hands cleaners are also effective.

  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread that way.

  • Stay home if you get sick...limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.

  • Follow public health advice regarding school closures, avoiding crowds and other social distancing measures.

*These tips are from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention website which you can check regularly to stay updated and informed on this deadly virus.

Improve Sexual Health The Natural Way

I have been totally blown away at the billions of dollars being spent on Viagra, Cialis and other pharma solutions for erectile dysfunction despite repeated warnings of serious, perilous dangers that are often reported, but apparently have very little deterrent effect. Why take these risks on something that could do more harm than good to your body when there is a safe and natural alterative for men and women?

Purium’s Super Male Formula is an amazingly effective, all-natural alternative to Viagra and other similar products—with a few major differences. While pharmaceutical drugs and Super Male Formula both offer the obvious and expected dramatic increase in sexual ability, performance, and satisfaction—the side effects are dramatically different. Unlike the pharmaceutical options, there are NO risks of heart attacks, blindness, liver damage, or death!

Super Male Formula's ingredients actually stimulate natural growth hormone, dormant stem cells and testosterone while strengthening the body, increasing its vitality and creating the potential for long-term virility.

In fact, Super Male Formula is a true anti-aging powerhouse and the sexual benefits are only a result of the overall strengthening of the physical and physiological well-being of its user. This product contains herbs used for thousands of years to improve virility—they are tried, true, and most importantly, safe and effective! You will be capable of having not only more sex but sex that is longer and more satisfying—plus you will be healthy enough to live long to enjoy it.

Since I have been using Super Male Formula, I have noticed many positive changes. Not only has my muscle mass increased, but now I feel more energetic throughout the day and even my attitude has greatly improved—nothing gets me down these days. Most impressive (other than the obvious) is the incredible reversal of my hair loss! I am serious. If you have been feeling less than super—you’ve got to try this. Believe me—the name does not lie!

If you want to try Super Male Formula for yourself or simply find out more about it, please visit the Purium website.

Check back next Monday for my answer for increasing women’s sex drive and satisfaction!

No Go With The Flow

Hello Everyone,

Let me set the mood. You're feeling nauseous after eating, you have poor digestion, and you have episodes of constipation followed by diarrhea. You go to your doctor and describe your symptoms only to be given antibiotics that are ineffective or may make the condition worse. Chances are you have a condition called Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or IBS.

For many people, this condition can lead to reduced social contact and insecurity. The good news is that IBS can be reduced and even eliminated in some cases with proper attention to diet and lifestyle. This is why I am dedicating our Wednesday night Consumer Education Call to this uncomfortable, often painful, and often misunderstood, condition.

Surprisingly to many, but not to us since it is one of our favorite products, Purium's 40X Aloe Vera Concentrate could be an integral part of an IBS battle plan. Proving once again it's versatility and validating why Hippocrates referred to Aloe as the "potted physician" (he kept a house plant variety near him at all times), aloe vera may help to soothe and heal sufferers of IBS.

In honor of IBS Awareness Month, we are sharing this information in the hopes of helping those who are affected by this issue. Please tune in on Wednesday night (6 pm PST/9pm EST-dial 212 461 5800, enter pin code 8246) to gain more insight into the naturopathic ways to deal with this condition and to learn more about Purium's Irritable Bowel Syndrome Battle Plan.

Top Three Threats to Our Children’s Health

1. Malnutrition or Mis-nutrition? - We are the most over-fed people in history, yet we continue to suffer from conditions caused by bad food choices or misguided nutrition advice*. The effects of these choices include everything from developmental disorders like ADD and Autism, to emotional detachment.

Please click on the links for the ADD and Autism battle plans in the Library section to learn more about various diet and lifestyle tips that may help you deal with these modern diseases.

2. Obesity- Our continued food choice errors lead to excessive caloric intake and nutrient deficiencies. This creates a cycle of disease including diabetes and heart disease. Cases of diabetes have alarmingly gone up 90% in the past ten years and are affecting childen at increasingly younger ages! Research shows that simple diet and lifestyle choices may help you prevent or aid in the reversal of symptoms of metabolic disease.

Click here to see how a 2-time Grammy award winner beat Type 2 Diabetes. Click here to see how one of our customers was able to lose 127 lbs using our products.

3. Chemical Pollution/ Dioxins and lead- Chemicals in our environment lead to lung problems, cancer and a shortened lifespan. Over 100 cancer-causing chemicals are used in agriculture and our produce, fish, air, and water are potentially full of heavy metals and dioxins. Nothing fights this better than chlorophyll rich green foods like chlorella (great chelator of heavy metals and toxins), wheatgrass (effective detoxifier of dioxins), barley grass (may repair damaged DNA), and mineral-rich sea vegetables (also rich in cancer-protective plant compounds called 'lignans').

We must be true health advocates for our children! Knowledge is power- I want to help empower you to take the health of your children, and yourself, into your own hands. Children are innocently vulnerable to so many health hazards, but there are simple dietary and lifestyle steps we can take to help them cleanse and nourish their little bodies and also aid in the prevention of these modern diseases and complications at the same time! These health and nutrition tips are based on the tradition of Naturopathics, which operates on the premise that our bodies are self-healing if given the right tools and environment. This tradition has been well practiced for over 5,000 years.

Please read the latest articles added to our Free Article section of the Library titled “Pesticides blamed for certain childhood brain cancers” and about how “Experts say Ads are selling US kids poor health” and then tune in Wednesday night for my Consumer Education Conference Call for more detailed information on how to protect your loved ones. This call can be accessed by dialing (212) 461-5800 and hitting pin code #8246 when prompted, call starts at 6 pm PST/ 9 pm EST.

*I recommend getting vitamins and minerals from whole food sources. This is so the body will be given a naturally comprehensive “multi-vitamin” from a whole food source, available in the most bioavailable form with all it's vital co-factors-just as Mother Nature intended! Synthetic, isolated vitamins may do more harm than good in the long run. For example, please see the free article in the Library titled, "Ascorbic Acid vs All Natural Vitamin C." Please e-mail me if you have any questions regarding the differences between whole food supplements and isolated mega dose vitamins.

Autism

Hello Everyone,

Over the last 20 years of my life or more, I have been dedicated to helping people find holistic and alternative approaches in their quest for health. Many times, the health challenges that they were facing were severe while other times they might have been relatively minor. Regardless of that, I was always proud that in most instances we could direct them towards what is an effective, sometimes dramatically, method of inspiring the body to heal itself. So with that in mind, there have definitely been challenges and there have been some difficulties. There are in fact some conditions which no effective alternative or medical treatment exists. In those instances, of course, we are most saddened when we can offer little hope. In recent years I have documented the seeming acceleration of chronic and degenerative conditions manifesting themselves in still younger and younger generations. These conditions, which include heart disease and heart attacks were once firmly the realm of those 50 and over. It is now not uncommon to see them happen to those in their 30's. Cancer, was once the domain of senior citizens, but is now rampant among 30 and 40 year olds. Other diseases, such as Diabetes, that were not seen until adulthood are now manifesting themselves in alarming numbers in juveniles. Because of this, there has been confirmation of a theory that I proposed over 15 years ago in my audio lecture CD, "The Healing Miracles of Green Foods". The theory was that we are a species on the brink of extinction. Perhaps there is no better indication that something has gone drastically wrong, than the new plague we call autism, and our seeming inability to raise and nourish our children to be free of disease.

In case you don't know, Autism could afflict as many as 1 in every 100 children born. This is far too many! As I stated before, there is no greater frustration when dealing in naturopathic and holistic medicine as when you can offer no hope. Well, for the first time in history, I believe there is hope. Hope that can be offered in a very inexpensive and easily applied fashion for those parents and children afflicted with conditions in the Autism spectrum. Hope for everything from ADD and ADHD,to SID (Sensory Integration Dysfunction), all the way up to Autism. It is for that reason that I wanted to bring attention to PHP’s Autism Battle Plan, which gives valuable diet and lifestyle advice for dealing with Autism from a naturopathic standpoint. I would also like to direct your attention to a related article titled B6 and Magnesium*. This article gives insight into the scientifically supported reasons why B6 and Magnesium, which can be found naturally in green foods such as Spirulina, may be very beneficial. Hopefully I can inspire anyone who knows someone who is afflicted with this condition to please contact us immediately. We can put you in contact with clinicians that offer the greatest opportunity for a successful outcome.

Have questions and concerns? Please tune in to our weekly Wednesday night Consumer Education call for more information on this troubling affliction. Consumer Education calls are held every Wednesday night at 6 pm PST/ 9 pm EST and can be reached by dialing (212) 461 5800 and entering pin code #8246 when prompted. Please also be sure to forward this to anyone you know that may benefit from this valuable information!

Dave

*I recommend getting B6 and Magnesium from whole foods, such as Organic Spirulina, where these nutrients naturally occur in their most bioavailable form along with all their vital co-factors, just as Mother Nature intended! Evidence suggests that synthetic, manmade nutrients in mega-dose form, can actually hurt your body, creating the harmful free radicals that “antioxidants” are supposed to help fight! Recent studies show that by isolating or concentrating these nutrients, we actually change the way the body reacts to them and the results can be far worse than the benefit. Today many scientists, nutritionists, and educated consumers are rejecting multivitamins and other “fortified” foods and embracing the benefits of phytonutrients as the most powerful tool to bring health to your body.

Just A Family Chat

Hello again everyone,

Today I was a guest on Everyday with Marcus and Lisa on FamilyNet. Unlike the other day on The Daily Buzz we didn't just talk about sleep. We also discussed natural ways to alleviate stress in today’s chaotic world and how stress and lack of sleep can be directly tied to the inability to lose weight. As I'm sure a number of you out there are dealing with one...maybe more of these issues, I wanted to give some links to the info on my website for you to look over. Check out my Top Nutritional Supplements for Sleep, Top Nutritional Supplements for Weight Loss, Weight Loss Battle Plan, and The Three Reasons People Typically Cannot Sleep. I also wanted to plug my website Superfoods for Supermodels. I came up with the eating plan on there to try and help out those in the entertainment and modeling industries. I was appalled at the sheer number of stories I was reading about entertainers and models with eating disorders. All this suffering because they were trying to maintain this super-thin look that the media desires. This plan is a great resource for those in the spotlight as well as everyday people who wish to lose weight, look, and feel great, without damaging their body in the process. Even though I hadn't originally planned on it we also talked a little about pregnancy. It was just a smidge so you might want to check out my Pregnancy Action Plan for a little more insight. Well that's enough for now. I look forward to talking with you guys again soon.

Dave

P.S. One more thing. If you're not big on reading, you can listen, online, to some of my education calls. The links below will take you to several that relate to what I talked about on the show today.
