Natural is not necessary Safe

The rise of health consciousness among the general population creates a huge demand for healthy food. People tend to buy organic stuff as well as go natural meaning no addition of artificial elements into the creation process of such food. Even the use of chemical fertilizers are frowned upon.

However, what is natural does not necessarily mean that it is good for our bodies or safe. My father was a case in point. He was a diabetic and an adherent to the Chinese Herbal Medication. I guess more of upbringing than anything else. I do believe in our traditional Chinese Medicines but in the same breath I have got to say that we must be careful.

When my father was admitted to the hospital with kidney failure, the doctors told me about the traditional medicine he was taking all these while contain high content of mercury and lead which eventually lead to kidney failure!

I believe what I really want to say, without running down traditional herbal treatments is that many times we just do not know the dangerous elements in such medication. While it does help to treat our illnesses but at the same time contain poisonous elements that cause other problems too!

Nowadays, many people buy online for their supply of natural or organic supplements from all sorts of online stores. Many of these are just like you and I promoting affiliate products which we trust or believe are good and harmless! It seems that many such websites are being shut-down by health authorities in UK, Canada and the US for selling products that contain dangerous elements!

For this reason alone, I will never go into selling Vitamins, Organic or Natural Supplements online simply because I personally do not know what is behind these products and there is no way for me to find out. I gather some of the dangerous elements and I list here for your own caution!

Ephedrine - cause lead poisoning, cause high BP, even heart attack or stroke.

Aristolochia - linked to kidney failure, containing steroids, arsenic and mercury.

Fenluramine - poisonous to the liver and cause heart irregularities.Other things such as Nutmegs, Fly Agaric Mushroom, San Pedro and Cacti

Salvia, all contain the hallucinogen

Mescaline which, in sufficient quantities can cause a range of psychiatric disturbances from anxiety to panic attacks to psychosis.


Cell Phones Health Hazards

Just yesterday, I had a chat with my sis-in-law and she told me about this 30 year old graduate with a Doctorate Degree, and he is dying of cancer! He kept this from his mom who is residing overseas. My heart just wept for this bright young man with all his knowledge and training, just started working and now a death sentence and at such a young age!

I do wonder about the frequency of cancer and all sorts of strange illnesses happening to our younger people. We used to hear of old people dying and we felt quite natural but for young people to die, there is something seriously wrong out there! Yeah, blame the causes from life-styles, acquiring bad habits etc. etc. Have any of you wonder about the effects of strong electro-magnetic fields that can cause all sorts of illnesses? I mean electro-magnetic waves like microwave, high frequency radio waves, high voltage transmission lines waves emissions.........

I am sure you have read or heard about people protesting to the local telecommunication operators and power generating companies about the cancer causing effects of living near to such things. Although we were told many times that it is safe, yet results shown by studies made in foreign countries indicate some alarming results!

Below is a photo of how our human cells react to exposure to X-rays and cell-phone waves!

Slide one (top left) shows a normal healthy cell under magnification. This cell is a bright energetic little orb with its DNA and other genetic materials safely inside the cell membrane.

Slide two (top right) shows a living cell exposed to 1600 chest X-rays. This cell is shrunken and has lost its energetic brightness. There is a comet trail of fragmented DNA particles, visible streaming out of the cell. These DNA fragments are called micronuclei, typical mutations from excessive X-rays, or from gamma waves of nuclear detonation.

Slide three (bottom) shows a cell exposed to 24 hours of cell phone radiation. Its comet tail of micronuclei damage is virtually identical to that of 1600 chest x-rays.

The frequency used was 1.8 gigahertz (1800 megahertz), typical cell phone frequencies are around 1.9 gigahertz (and also from many household cordless phones).

The power level used to micronucleate this photograph was 1.3 W/k Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). SAR is the calculated amount of energy absorbed by the human body from microwave phones. Many cell phones produce MORE power than that.

The above is an extract from the article posted by Alternative Doctor Blog and I strongly recommend you folks to read out about the details there. Based on the experiments done in many other countries, it seems rather convincing about the health hazards of one being exposed to such waves for long period of time. Perhaps we need to seriously think about this and bring this up with our local MP'


Beware of Your Shampoos!

Nowadays, we, the consumer need to be educated and be informed of the various health hazards we bring upon ourselves due to using simple, take for granted daily commercial products such as shampoos! I was told by a friend that the normal shampoo we used contain a chemical known as SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulphate) which is used in the preparation of floor cleaners!!!!

The fact is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is an anionic surfactant used in cosmetics and industrial chemicals as a cleansing agent. In absorption, metabolism and excretion studies Sodium Lauryl Sulfate had a degenerative effect on the cell membranes because of its protein denaturing properties. High levels of skin penetration may occur at even low use concentration.

For more details on SLS please check out at natural-health-info or this toxicology report!

I was told that the following Brands of Shampoos contain SLS! Do check them out and just be warned for your own health :-

There are more products on the list but I guess the above serves the point! So the next time you buy your Shampoo just read the details!!!!


Shitty Business

Haven't you noticed the co-relation between what you excrete and your health? I am sure you have had done medical check-ups and at times the doctors want a stool sample! Well, there is a lot of truth in this shitty business and here are two charts that tells you what to look for!

Checking Your Milk Products

By now the whole world is fully aware of the contaminated milk produced from China. Many milk and milk related products were removed from the Super and Hyper Marts shelves in Malaysia. It is indeed very difficult to remember all the items published in the local newspapers. I am sure you do not want to go through the hassel of checking the products you buy from the shelf.

There is an easy way to check online! It seems that the 13 digits Bar Code is the way to go. for your information, products from China starts with 690, 691, 692 whereas products coming from Taiwan starts with 471!
