Circumin is the active ingredient in the spice Tumeric, which has been considered a "holy powder" in India for centuries. Circumin imparts the bright gold color to turmeric and also serves as a yellow dye for textiles. But more importantly, the use of turmeric as medicine in the Indian culture goes back more than 5000 years.

U.S. scientists are jumping on the circumin bandwagon as well. In 2005, almost 300 technical papers in the National Library of Medicine's PubMed...

When cell phones came onto the market in 1983 they did so without any pre-market safety testing. How was this allowed? Normally, any consumer device that emits radiation would be required to go through specific safety testing to determine if there would be any risk to the population. But based on information from the cell phone industry the cell phone became exempt from any such testing. The information provided by the cell phone industry to the government at that time stated that the...

In 1999, the results of the research findings were published. The following summary is quoted directly from that report:

1. The rate of death from brain cancer among handheld phone users was higher than the rate of brain cancer among those who used non-handheld phones that were away from their head
2. The risk of acoustic neuroma, a benign tumor of the auditory nerve, was 50% higher in people who reported using cell phones for six years or more
3. The risk of rare...

Mexico, stem cell therapy Stem cell therapy is going to revolutionize how we treat hearing loss, ATS, cancer, Parkinson's and other deadly diseases. As stem cell treatments are taking place worldwide, there is a need to understand what they exactly mean. According to the medical fraternity, stem cells are the life providers of human beings and their use in the right way will lead to new discoveries in medical sciences in coming years. In Mexico, stem cell therapy is an effective way of...

As I continue to write, I continue to read from the wisdom of others. I especially like well researched scholarly works that gather and present facts that substantiate truths and beliefs as we struggle to find ways to justify decisions we make about life and health and wellness.

And so I read another well written, well researched article in the LA Times, this one, by Devon Schuyler, March, 22, 2010: "Obesity's role in cancer. It may not cause the disease, but studies show a...

So what is the cancer industry worth? A study funded by the Lance Armstrong Foundation, estimated that the global cancer industry is worth $305 billion in 2009, with an estimated 12.9 million new cases of cancer. That's equivalent to all the exports of Russia in 2009. It is estimated that the industry could be worth $638 billion by 2030.

There is a collusion that centers around the lobbying industry. Lobbying is the process by which representatives of corporations approach...

Blood cancer is a condition where cancerous cells have attacked the blood, bone marrow or lymphatic system. This type of cancer is malignant and has the ability to spread and destroy tissues. In the case of leukemia, the cancer interferes with the body's ability to make blood. Leukemia attacks the bone marrow and the blood itself, causing fatigue, anemia, weakness, and bone pain.

It is diagnosed with a blood test in which specific types of blood cells are counted. Treatment...

SAR stands for Specific Absorption Rate. It is a complex measurement of how much radiation passes through tissue during a specified time period. In other words, it measures the level of absorption of EMR by the body. When biological tissues absorb EMR it can lead to the distortion of cellular function. Up until 1993 no one had ever observed that there were any heating effects occurring at SAR levels below 40 watts per kilogram. Cell phones operate at a power of about 0.6 watts and yield...
