Food wrap linked to prostate cancer
"A CHEMICAL used to make food wrapping and line tin cans could be
the cause of surging prostate cancer rates in men, says a study.

Hanford
Area Tests Find Plutonium in Fish, Mulberry Trees
"Radioactive contamination in public areas surrounding the Hanford Nuclear Site in
Richland, Washington is higher and more geographically widespread than previously thought,
according to a report today from a government watchdog group and a chemical data firm.
The Government Accountability Project (GAP) and Boston Chemical Data Corporation
issued a study that includes the first reports of plutonium in clams and fish in the
Columbia River.
The report includes evidence that radiation levels in mulberry trees are higher
than previously reported, and that strontium-90 has entered the ecosystem in high levels.
"This is hard evidence that points to past Department of Energy reports as
being inadequate to protect the people of southwest Washington and northern Oregon,"
said Tom Carpenter, GAP Nuclear Oversight Campaign Director.

ABORTION MURDER |
"46 Million babies are killed WORLD
WIDE (Developed + 3rd world countries) EVERY YEAR and that is about 126,000 per day.

The
Deadly Dead-Baby Industry
"You may be wondering what happened to the baby that your ex didn't
want you to be the father of and that she aborted. Perhaps you worry
about the child you are carrying that you wish to have aborted or
that your boyfriend, husband or relatives and friends pressure you
to have aborted. The Alberta Report published an article reporting
on an inside look at how the abortion industry operates a lucrative,
rapidly growing trade in tissues from aborted children. It was the
cover story of the August 23, 1999 issue.
The article describes the "Secrets of the Dead-Baby Industry" and,
from eye-witness accounts, that aborted fetuses are being dissected
alive, harvested and sold in pieces to fuel a vast research
enterprise. The results of "failed abortions" don't stymie the
ghouls who profit from and run this industry. If the "aborted"
babies are still alive when they see the light of the operating
theater, they will be drowned, stabbed, beaten to death with tongs,
or perhaps simply left to die before they are rendered. " |
Dead Baby Parts Business Booming (Grisly article about the
commercial exploitation of the body parts of aborted babies)
"...The abortion industry, however, has always been about money, and
now Houston-based Life Dynamics has shown it's a

biologics and pharmacological industries which require a continuing
supply of fresh human bodies, brains, organs, flesh and bones for
research, product manufacturing, treatments, and therapies..." |

Holocaust Dwarfs Holocaust "In a gut-wrenching report
on abortions the Washington Post reveals that twenty-two percent of

proof, the report states that "thirty-eight percent of the estimated
210 million pregnancies that occur each year are unintentional and
22 percent end in abortion. . .." [1] The Guttmacher Institute
states that the abortion rate in the U.S. is higher than the rest of
the world at twenty-three percent. By using these figures
the worldwide abortion rate exceeds 46,200,000

Vaccines From Aborted Children
"Aside from the issue of dangers of vaccination, which many
vaccination groups and parents have addressed. A growing number of
pro-life people are also taking a stand against vaccinations derived
from deliberately aborted children. Yes, you heard right, vaccines
from aborted children.
For over 30 years the pharmaceutical companies in this country have
been producing vaccines derived from tissues of aborted fetuses, a
fact that was brought to light only in the late 1990's. When the
source of the vaccines were revealed, many principled individuals
objected and with good reason. As the information has continued to
become more and more public, a large number of physicians and
parents are highly troubled by the ethical issues involved. |
KLAN
PARENTHOOD -In America today, almost as many African-American
children are aborted as are born
--A black baby is three times more likely to be murdered in the womb
than a white baby.
--Since 1973, abortion has reduced the black population by over 25
percent.
--Twice as many African-Americans have died from abortion than have
died from AIDS, accidents, violent crimes, cancer, and heart disease
combined.
--Every three days, more African-Americans are killed by abortion
than have been killed by the Ku Klux Klan in its entire history.
--Planned Parenthood operates the nation's largest chain of abortion
clinics and almost 80 percent of its facilities are located in
minority neighborhoods. |

ABORTION CAUSES BREAST
CANCER By Dr. James Howenstine, MD.
"Most women in the United States are unaware that having an

politically incorrect issue. More than 30 studies have confirmed a
relationship between having an abortion and the subsequent development of breast cancer..." |

"That vaccination continues to this day is not because of its 'assumed' benefits, but
(1) because it yields millions of dollars profit to the Drug Industry, (2) because it is
one of the foundation stones of Medical Science upon which they have undeservedly built
their power and prestige, and for that reason, must remain in place, and (3) because the
majority of the public, brainwashed by medical propaganda, and unwilling to think for
themselves, blindly accept it." |

Alfred C. Kinsey & The True Origin of
Planned Parenthood Opens the Floodgates to child abuse, STDs, Cancer and Disease.
The baby killers... |
USES OF
KINSEY'S FLAWED RESEARCH
"Forty-two years after its release, Sexual Behavior in the Human Male by
Alfred C. Kinsey remains a highly influential document in government funding of sex
education and health programs despite a general understanding that its research methods
were unscientific. The Kinsey ideology has altered the nation's legal codes for sex
crimes and has been used as a touchstone for numerous federal policies, particularly
the funding of sex education, research, and prevention programs for AIDS, drug abuse, and
youth suicide.
Based on the Kinsey ideology that premarital sexuality is superior to
marriage-based sex, federally-funded sex and health education curricula have been geared
almost entirely toward sexually active teens, implying that abstinence before marriage is
abnormal.
...Planned Parenthood receives about $50 million annually from Title X grants.
This money is used to design and implement sex education and health programs for thousands
of schools across America and to operate clinics. Giving lip service to the idea of
abstinence before marriage, Planned Parenthood-designed programs openly support sexual
experimentation. For instance:." |

Scholarly work shows sexual revolutionary's far-reaching damage

acts masquerading as science." |
Hollywood mag
spikes 'pedophile warning'
The leading entertainment industry magazine Variety has backed down on its
agreement to publish a paid ad that warns makers of an upcoming film on sexual
revolutionary Alfred Kinsey that they are on the verge of glorifying a notorious
promoter of pedophilia.
Variety publisher Craig Hitchcock rejected two versions of an ad negotiated
by Kinsey critic Judith Reisman, calling it "inappropriate" for the
entertainment publication.
...The ad was prompted by Reisman's attempt to warn makers of the Kinsey film that they
were about to produce a whitewashed picture of the man she calls the "most
infamous pedophile propagandist in scientific history." Kinsey died in
1956.
The United Artists and Myriad Pictures film, to begin production this spring, will
be produced by Francis Ford Coppola and directed by Oscar-winner Bill Condon, known for
his hit "Gods and Monsters."
Reisman has charged that Kinsey's socially explosive 1948 book, "Sexual
Behavior in the Human Male," contained a record of human experiments
conducted by pedophiles on hundreds, perhaps thousands, of children. The Kinsey study,
widely seen as the book that launched the "sexual revolution," has been used to
support the contention that sexual activity in children is natural and healthy and should
not be repressed..." |

Clinical Guide to the Use of Vitamin C -The Clinical Experiences of
Frederick R. Klenner, M.D., abbreviated, sumarized and annotated by Lendon H. Smith, M.D.
(A must READ!)
"...The small amount of Vitamin C, recommended by the RDA (75 mg then and
60 mg now) is enough to protect the person from gross disease, but not the amount to
maintain good health. Dr. Klenner quotes Kline and Eheart, who in 1944 realized there
are wide variations in the need for Vitamin C, in otherwise “normal”
individuals. In 1945 Jolliffe suggested that the optimum requirements might be more
than 10 times the small doses recommended....
...How does it work: as an oxidizing agent massive amounts, i.e., 5-150 grams,
intravenously, for certain pathological conditions, if allowed to run in rapidly (20 gauge
needle), acts as a “Flash Oxidizer” and may correct the condition in minutes. It
can be a reducing agent. It neutralized toxins, viruses and histamine. The more serious
the condition, the more C is required.
It appears that Vitamin C acts as a reducing agent, an oxidizing agent, an
anti-clotting agent, an antihistamine, and as an anti-infective agent." |
Alternative Medicine: Fortifying Yourself with Vitamin
C
"Dr. Klenner cured 60 cases of polio in 1948 using vitamin C
in by injection. Tom Levy, MD cured two cases of West Nile disease in 2003 using

Infectious Diseases, and Toxins” citing 1200 articles showing that vitamin C given
intravenously can cure infections such as hepatitis and encephalitis." |

Medical
Experts Now Actually Funded by Drug Companies
"...Pharmaceutical companies have completely altered the paradigm of what is health
and how to become healthy. The brainwashing message has become: "I have a pain. Take
a drug. I don't feel well. Take a drug. I have an abnormal lab test. Take a drug. I can't
study. Take a drug. I can't sleep. Take a drug. I can't stay awake. Take a drug."
This is the message from every major medical journal, from big media "health
news," and even from public health government policy.
How did it happen? Here's an example: Eight of the nine experts on a panel
advising the government on cholesterol guidelines for the public earned money from drug
companies for the recommendations they made. Forming a panel of medical experts with no
ties to drug companies, some say, is nearly impossible.
Drug companies spent $2 billion in 2001 on events for doctors -- double the amount
spent in 1996. When a medical expert advises the government, we expect his or her
recommendations aren't influenced by bribes from drug companies. Unfortunately the
pattern of corruption among medical experts funded by pharmaceutical companies has now
tainted credibility to the point of public distrust..." |

Is the American Cancer
Society more interested in cancer profit than cancer prevention?
A staggering 1.37 million new cases of
cancer will be diagnosed in calendar 2005. That statistic was taken
straight from the American Cancer Society's own reports. Given the crushing impact of
cancer on public health, coupled with the ineffectiveness of measures like chemotherapy
and radiation, you'd think that agencies like the American Cancer Society (ACS) would
clamor for the chance to investigate new methods for preventing and combating the disease.
Unfortunately, you might be wrong.
In this article, we'll explore how agencies like the ACS have
an eye for their own financial interests. Why does the ACS
reportedly put far greater financial emphasis on chemotherapy and radiation research than
on life-saving prevention techniques? Why does the ACS appear to discredit physicians
researching and practicing effective alternative cancer-fighting techniques? A closer look
at the American Cancer Society reveals the agency's ties to the cancer industry. |

Journal article & peer review
An important part of how the medical cartel controls medicine is by controlling
peer review and propagating the belief that any medicine that isn't peer reviewed has no
value...
"For the public ever to break command science it must first understand the basis of
its enormous powers. The medical establishment derives these powers from three sources:
(1) enforced consensus through peer review, (2) through commercialization, and (3) the

the Red Cross Blood Supply?....NEVER! |
The
Scandalous History of the Red Cross
"...THOUGH IT is technically a nonprofit, the Red Cross is run more like
profit-hungry corporation than what most people think a "charity" would act
like. The most deadly example of this was the Red Cross' criminally negligent response to
the early stages of the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s. The Red Cross has been for many
decades, and remains today, the largest blood bank in the country. In 1982 and especially 1983, when it would have possible to contain the outbreak--or at least
stop the spread of the disease through infusions of infected blood--major blood banks, led
by the Red Cross, opposed national testing of blood for HIV.
The Red Cross' opposition was based on the financial cost. As
investigative journalist Judith Reitman wrote in her book Bad Blood: "It appeared it
would be cheaper to pay off infected blood recipients, should they pursue legal action,
than to up the Red Cross blood supply."
Earlier this year, the Canadian Red Cross pleaded guilty to distributing
contaminated blood supplies that infected thousands of Canadians with HIV and hepatitis C
in the 1980s. This scandal is a large part of why the Canadian Red Cross was removed from
running the country's blood supply in the late 1990s--but not the American Red
Cross...." |

Every Parent Should Know About Infant Formula |
The
Deadly Influence of Formula in America, Part I ~Dr. Mercola
This groundbreaking analysis from noted author, health educator and advocate Dr. Linda
Folden Palmer is the first time a health expert has published an examination of the
available scientific research comparing the death rates of formula-fed and breastfed
babies. While the results hold no surprises for breastfeeding educators and advocates, the
study may prove to be a rude awakening for the millions of Americans who have bought into
the myth that infant formula is a perfectly safe breast milk substitute. |
More
Proof That Breastfeeding Improves Long Term Brain Function ~Dr. Mercola
"Further reinforcing the previously reported beneficial effects of breast milk on
brain functions such as intelligence (IQ), a new study has found that children, aged 7-8
years, who were breastfed had significantly higher verbal and performance IQ scores than
those who were not. |

Fluoride
is BAD |

that has ever been perpetrated and it has been perpetrated on more people than any other
fraud has." ~Professor Albert Schatz, Ph.D. -Microbiology, -Discoverer of
streptomycin, Nobel Prize Winner |
Is Fluoride Really As Safe As You Are Told? ~Dr. Mercola
Fluoride is added to the water supply of most American cities for the ostensible purpose
of dental hygiene. The reader will be amazed to find out that such a thing is not only
unlikely, but actually the reverse of the ongoing reality |
REFERENCE
SET: CANCER
"Everything causes cancer? Perhaps. Conceivably even a single electron at the other
side of the universe. The real question is, how likely is any one particular cause?
In point of fact, fluoride causes more human cancer, and causes it faster, than any other
chemical." ~ Dean Burk, Former Chief Chemist Emeritus, U.S. National Cancer
Institute" |

"All fluoride compounds - inorganic and organic - affect thyroid hormone
function." |

Away
with the trade: Belgium prohibits - as the first country in the world - fluoride
supplements
"...the usefulness of fluoride has been doubted worldwide for a long time already.
Over the years at least 12 Nobel Prize winners in Medicine and Chemistry have warned of
the associated health risks. To make children take fluoride is not only useless against
caries, it is plainly dangerous. Tooth and bone decalcification as a result of fluoride
even has a name - fluorosis. Fluoride is very reactive and it goes deep into the bones and
cells where it is accumulated. Yes, the tooth surface becomes much harder, but the tooth
itself becomes more brittle. From a lot of research it seems that fluoride causes joint
problems, skeletal deformations, osteoporosis, and that it can even cause bone cancer.
Also the brain cannot escape from it. Fluoride has a negative influence on the nervous
system and the immune system, and in children it can lead to (chronic) fatigue, a lower
IQ, learning disabilities, lethargy and depression." |
GOOD TEETH FROM BIRTH TO DEATH GOODBYE TO TOOTH CAVITIES! GUM INFECTION IS
NOW ENDED!
by Dr. Gerard F. Judd, Ph.D., Chemistry and Fluoride Researcher
"I now place in everyone's hand the complete answer to tooth cavities. Following this
procedure there will not be one more cavity, one more gingivitis case, or one more
fluorosed, brittle, cracked tooth in the world. Bad teeth in Ireland, Canada, the USA,
Britain, Australia and New Zealand will now be curbed. The 55-year fight with fluoride
promoters (dentists) in these countries is over since research now establishes for certain
that fluoride makes the teeth WORSE and not better (refs 1,2,3). " |

Antibiotics cause Asthma,
Allergies and harm Immune System |
|
Healthy mix
of GI tract microbes are key to preventing allergies and asthma
"If you want to avoid allergies or asthma, scientists at the University
of Michigan Medical School suggest you start paying more attention to what's in your gut.
...Everyone has a personal microbial fingerprint - a unique mix of bacteria
and fungi living in the stomach and intestines - which develops in the first years of
life. As long as the balance of gut microflora remains stable, tolerance continues. But
anything that alters this intestinal balance - taking antibiotics, switching from breast
milk to formula, eating a high-sugar, low-fat diet - interferes with the system and can
lead to problems." |
A Link Between Antibiotics and Asthma
Is there something parents can do to change whether their children will get asthma? Babies
who received a course of antibiotics during the first six months of life are 2.5 times
more likely than their peers to have developed asthma by age 7, according to a Henry Ford
Health System study. And babies who took even one round broad-spectrum antibiotics were
8.9 times more likely to acquire asthma. |
Two
Out of Three Babies Receive Antibiotics by First Birthday ~Dr. Mercola
"...The medical establishment has convinced American parents that they need to run
their babies to the doctor at the first sign of a fever. This does not make sense, as a
fever is actually a good thing.
High fevers are especially good as they are far better than any immunization at
building an authentic, life-long immune response. When we suppress these fevers with
Tylenol we can cause far more harm than good.
To add insult to injury, parents give their children antibiotics that do absolutely
nothing for the viral infection and do everything to upset the fragile bacterial
microenvironment in their child’s intestine.
It is no wonder that so many of us are sick as we grow up. Most of us are fed
grains rather than vegetables, and then we are assaulted by well-intentioned, but
nevertheless very harmful, rituals that nearly guarantee a major health challenge down the
road.
These medical "traditions" result in problems from allergies to recurrent
ear infections and tube placements in the ears to drugs for attention deficit
disorder." |

Abuse
of Antibiotics at Factory Farms Threatens the Effectiveness of Drugs Used to Treat Disease

Vaccinations |
Vaccinations prevent
health ~Dr. Mercola
"...Let no one distract you from your search of the truth about vaccinations. Parents
need to become educated before vaccinations are given to your love ones. Reading only
pro-vaccine literature from our doctor’s office and the public health service does
not inform one about the adverse effects of vaccinations and the complications that may
arise. While the medical literature is full of references to vaccines causing many
neurological diseases and depressing the immunity, these facts are often glossed over when
vaccinations are discussed. However, one must become informed to theses risks so that an
educated risk assessment may be made. Is the risks of the disease greater than the risk
from the vaccinations? I hope that this publication helps you decide this very important
and heated topic today. Seek out the books in the references and check out the web sites
for more in depth information and educate yourself before first before deciding about
vaccinations." |

Reflections
On Immunity, Vaccinations and Smallpox
Ian Sinclair, writing on the history of smallpox, states (1871):
“After an intensive four-year effort to vaccinate the entire population
between the ages of 2 and 50, the Chief Medical Officer of England announced in May 1871
that 97.5% had been vaccinated. In the following year, 1872, England experienced its worst
ever smallpox epidemic which claimed 44,840 lives….In the Philippines, prior to U.S.
takeover in 1905, case mortality [death rate] from smallpox was about 10%….In
1918-1919, with over 95% of the population vaccinated, the worst epidemic in the
Philippines’ history occurred resulting in a case mortality of 65%….The 1920
Report of the Philippines Health Service [stated] … ‘hundreds of thousands of
people were yearly vaccinated with the most unfortunate result that the 1918 epidemic
looks prima facie as a flagrant failure of the classic immunization toward future
epidemics.’” |

Modern
Dentistry: Mercury Poisoning, Formol Cresol
and Other Deceptive Practices |
MERCURY
AMALGAM POISONING "...Mercury
Amalgam
Until the 1840's, tooth decay was corrected for the rich with gold fillings. The poor went
without. The discovery, by a British chemist in 1819, that shavings from silver coins
mixed with mercury made a pliable mass which soon hardened was the origin of mercury
amalgam, or "silver", fillings for dental caries (cavitations in decaying
teeth). It is the convenience of use of this material which has made it popular with
dentists and parsimonious patients alike. It is only the liquid metal mercury which has
the property of forming hard substances when mixed with other metals; this is the amalgam.
Until recently most dentists parrot what they were taught in school and what the American
Dental Association (ADA) had to say about mercury staying "locked in chemically"
within the filling. Recently, however, extensive evidence has accumulated that the mercury
leaches out of the amalgams, poisoning us. Before entering into a detailed account of the
evidence, it is interesting to review the dental politics surrounding the introduction of
mercury in America. It was in the early 1800's that two brothers came from France,
bringing a new material, the precursors of the current silver amalgams. In addition to
mercury, it contained silver, copper and zinc. Many American dentists of the time believed
this material to be toxic. This argument is known as the first amalgam war. Members of the
then established dental organization, the American Society of Dental Surgeons (ASDS)
required their members to sign pledges promising not to use mercury in the fillings of
teeth.13 Several members were suspended from the society in New York City as late as 1848
for malpractice for using silver mercury fillings. As you will read further on in this
newsletter, the exact opposite situation exists today. The 'mercury amalgam dentists'
organized the then new American Dental Association (ADA) and won the amalgam war. They
have ruled (and this is probably the correct term) ever since. Note that in 1984 an
organization called The International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology [IAOMT14]
was formed) rather belatedly - in an attempt to reintroduce professional
responsibility" |
DENTAL AMALGAM MERCURY POISONING ~1996 Ron Kennedy, M.D.
"...dental amalgams are not in the general ken of medicine but rather dentistry the
problem is so widespread, I would be seriously remiss not to bring it to your attention.
The problem of dental amalgams is the problem of mercury poisoning.
...Amalgam, or what dentist sometimes call "silver fillings," is made from fifty
percent mercury, thirty-five percent silver and fifteen percent tin, or tin mixed with
copper, and a trace of zinc. This blend is easy for a dentist to work with, and it is much
less expensive than gold. It also lasts a long time. Until the mid-1980s dentists assumed
no mercury vapor was released from amalgam fillings. Since then, studies have proven a
significant level of mercury vapor is released by simply chewing your food.
...There are over 125 known symptoms of mercury toxicity. Most of them are vague and
nonspecific. It is not known what role mercury toxicity may play in MS (multiple
sclerosis) and ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or Lou Gehrig's Disease), however Dr.
Hal Huggins, a dentist in Colorado Springs, Colorado has developed a protocol for amalgam
removal and replacement, and in treating large numbers of MS and ALS patients has noticed
improvement of symptoms in 91%. People who were wheelchair bound often get up and walk,
sometimes on the same day as amalgam removal!" |
Is Dental Amalgam Safe? Part 1
- Scientifically , there is more than reasonable doubt ~ACNEM, Ross
Mackay, BDS
(Journal of the Australasian College of Nutritional & Environmental
Medicine, Vol. 12, No. 2, December 1993)
"...However, the rise of mercury filling material to almost universal use has not
been unopposed. In 1844 in the USA the existing dental association banned the use of
amalgam because of the known toxicity of mercury. But its use continued to spread until
finally economics and practical necessity won out and a new dental association was formed
which supported amalgam use, totally eclipsing the former association and silencing any
opposition.
Over the last decade, with the aid of scientific and technological advances, there has
been increasing disquiet about the systemic effects of long-term exposure to the mercury
which is released from amalgams and retained in the body. Signs and symptoms arising from
long-term low-level exposure to mercury are now called chronic mercury toxicity. Results
of recent research have led governments in Sweden, Germany and Austria to legislate to
restrict the use of amalgam because of the increasing amount of evidence indicating the
toxic effects of this material.
It is an undisputed fact that mercury is a very poisonous substance and it is acknowledged
as being the most toxic of the heavy metals. Mercury is a strong protoplasmic poison that
penetrates all living cells of the human body and a powerful biological poison with no
necessary biological function2. Being a nonpolar lipid-soluble entity it is rapidly
absorbed through the lungs, skin and mucous membranes. The basis of mercury’s
toxicity is its affinity for sulphur. It binds to sulphydryl groups and so inactivates
cell enzymes, thereby interrupting cell metabolism and function. Whether and at what level
mercury is poisonous depends on each person’s biological sensitivity and its effect
may show in different organs3. |

Synthetic or Natural Vitamins - What's The Difference? ~Dr.
Laura Mason-Scarborough
"...Two Viewpoints
There are two points of view when it comes to supplements. One is that vitamin
parts can be synthesized, in high concentrates (high potency). This is the principle
followed by most supplement manufacturers, the majority of which are pharmaceutical
companies. These vitamins are termed “synthetic”. (Though they can be labeled
“natural” even if they come from sugar or coal tar).
The other viewpoint is that vitamins and mineral elements are so complex, and have
so many parts that are dependent upon each other, that when separated they no longer can
produce a normal nutritional effect on the body. According to this theory, an overdose of
any one vitamin, as it occurs with separated out or synthetic vitamins, can be hazardous
to the body. Complete vitamins, with all of their parts and necessary cofactors are often
termed “whole food vitamins”, since they are derived entirely from whole foods. |

You
need SALT! |
Salt and Health ~Salt Institute
"...1. A ten-year study of nearly 8,000 Hawaiian Japanese men
concluded: "No relation was found between salt intake and the incidence of
stroke." (1985)
2. An eight-year study of a New York City hypertensive population stratified
for sodium intake levels found those on low-salt diets had more than four times as many
heart attacks as those on normal-sodium diets – the exact opposite of what the
“salt hypothesis” would have predicted. (1995)
3. An analysis by NHLBI’s Dr. Cutler of the first six years’ data
from the MRFIT database documented no health outcomes benefits of lower-sodium diets.
(1997)
4. A ten-year follow-up study to the huge Scottish Heart Health Study found
no improved health outcomes for those on low-salt diets. (1997)
5. An analysis of the health outcomes over twenty years from those in the
massive US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES I) documented a 20%
greater incidence of heart attacks among those on low-salt diets compared to normal-salt
diets ( 1 2 ) (1998)
6. A health outcomes study in Finland, reported to the American Heart
Association that no health benefits could be identified and concluded “…our
results do not support the recommendations for entire populations to reduce dietary sodium
intake to prevent coronary heart disease.” (1998)
7. A further analysis of the MRFIT database, this time using fourteen
years’ data, confirmed no improved health benefit from low-sodium diets. Its author
conceded that there is "no relationship observed between dietary sodium and
mortality." (1999)
8. A study of Americans found that less sodium-dense diets did reduce the
cardiovascular mortality of one population sub-set, overweight men – the article
reporting the findings did not explain why this obese group actually consumed less sodium
than normal-weight individuals in the study. (1999)
9. A Finnish study reported an increase in cardiovascular events for obese
men (but not women or normal-weight individuals of either gender) – the article,
however, failed to adjust for potassium intake levels which many researchers consider a
key associated variable. (2001)
10. In September, 2002, the prestigous Cochrane Collaboration produced the
latest and highest-quality meta-analysis of clinical trials. It was published in the
British Medical Journal and confirmed earlier meta-analyses' conclusions that significant
salt reduction would lead to very small blood pressure changes in sensitive populations
and no health benefits. (2002)..." |
