Discover the super-food power of noni
Sunday, May 27th, 2012
(NaturalNews) You may have seen ads promoting noni juice or heard about its health benefits and wondered if it’s for real. Hopefully, this article will shed some light on the subject of noni.
Most of the hype comes from multi-level marketing (MLM) providers. Their product is usually the most expensive and most processed. Those noni juices are often first pureed, sometime frozen, and then sent off to be liquefied from concentrate. Usually they are flavored or sweetened.
Pure noni juice isn’t so tasty, but it’s taken in small quantities, or you can mix the pure stuff with a fresh fruit juice that suits your taste. There are providers that sell pure noni juice, which are not overpriced like MLM products. Pure unadulterated noni is the only juice to use (http://www.healingnoni.com/noni-juice-facts-and-benefits.html).
Noni fruit has been used medicinally for 2000 years. It probably originated in Southeast Asia then made its way to India, eventually winding up growing abundantly in the Polynesian Islands. Concentrated noni powder from the fruit is also available in capsule form. That form has also been used medicinally (http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/learn/noni.php).
Dr. Scott Gerson is both an MD and an Ayurvedic doctor. Part of his training in Ayurveda required he personally try herbs he would recommend. So out of curiosity, Dr. Gerson got some noni juice and tried it during late autumn. This was a period of malaise and diminished health that was an annual tradition for him.
Dr. Gerson was delighted to go through that whole period feeling energetic and healthy. No colds or flues infected him this time. Noni has anti-inflammatory capabilities. More and more health experts are realizing chronic inflammation as a root cause of all types of disease.
Noni also has anti-fungal and antibacterial properties. It has also been observed to induce anti-tumor activity. Noni has been used historically for all types of digestive problems, including elimination issues. Applied topically, it has been known to heal burns quickly.
Dr. Gerson also explained how efforts to isolate scopoletin, considered the active ingredient of noni, fall short of the whole fruit’s benefits. The latest attempt by Big Pharma to cash in on already existing plant food, as they have been doing with synthetic cannabis and others, was tried by the University of Hawaii.
Gerson noted that “[...] both the biological effects and the serotonin receptor binding effects of the crude noni extract was lost upon purification of this presumed active ingredient.” The Hawaii medical school’s failed attempt to isolate the active ingredient underscored the necessary synergy of other ingredients in noni to restore health.
Dr. Mona Harrison, former assistant dean of the Boston University School of Medicine and former chief medical officer at the Washington, DC General Hospital, now in private practice, uses noni with some of her patients.
She has investigated why noni has its mysterious healing qualities by referencing ancient medical information within the context of current biology. She writes of noni’s effect on the pineal gland, which affects the whole glandular hormonal system, by stimulating serotonin and melatonin.
She claims this factor alone can curb many neurological or autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis or Parkinson’s. In the center of the brain is a spot called substantia nigra. When it deteriorates, neurological problems ensue.
Noni’s pineal gland function boost brings about the substantia nigra spot’s cellular regeneration, leading to reversals of symptoms attributed to neurological diseases.
So there you are, two actual MDs giving you the scoop on noni’s health benefits. You can go for the real stuff with confidence now (http://www.consumerhealth.org/articles/display.cfm?ID=19990303205600).

Guerlain Blue Lip Gloss: Emilio Pucci Terra Azzurra Gloss
Sunday, May 27th, 2012
Ever since I heard about this blue gloss as part of the Emilio Pucci Terra Azzurra range for summer, I’ve been dying to try it – and now I have.Â
The first thing to say is that it is really blue – it is of course highly translucent but there is a definite blue tinge. When I put in on my bare lip, it gave a very lightly greyish glaze – it’s pretty and light enough that nobody is going to start giving you the Heimlich manoeuvre because your lips are blue. Swatches on the arm look REALLY blue, but because of the pink of the lips, it is not that shade on the mouth. I was curious to see what happens if you layer it over other colours, so I used it over Urban Decay Super Saturated in hyper-orange Punch Drunk, and then over Clinique Chubby Stick in Chunky Cherry, a mid pink.
The range is out now at House of Fraser but they haven’t taken the blue shade of gloss, so it’s a wait til the 3rd of June when it goes nationwide to see who’s been brave enough to back the blue lip!
The absolute stand-out piece from the collection is the Terra Azzurra Bronzing Powder & Blush in a chunky wooden palette that has a magnetic lid making for the smoothest possible opening. Mind-blowingly lovely!

Freedom watch: Not a single Democrat voted in favor of ending FDA raids on raw milk farmers
Saturday, May 26th, 2012
(NaturalNews) Here’s some news for those who still somehow believe the political left in Washington cares about the People. After U.S. Senator Rand Paul introduced an amendment that would have ended armed FDA raids on raw milk farmers (http://www.naturalnews.com/035966_Rand_Paul_FDA_censorship.html) and legalized free speech about the curative properties of medicinal herbs, nutritional supplements and superfoods, are you curious how many Democrats voted in favor of this?
Zero.
Big fat zero, to be exact.
Not a single Democrat in the United States Senate believes in fundamental food freedom, farm freedom or the principles of liberty. Every single Democrat in the Senate is a Big Brother sellout who supports the FDA having more guns pointed in the faces of raw milk farmers, arresting them and throwing them in prison, criminalizing real food and destroying America’s small family farms.
Every single Democrat in the U.S. Senate believes that telling the truth about the beneficial effects of Chinese Medicine, or medicinal herbs, or nutritional supplements should be a crime that can also get you raided, shut down and imprisoned by the FDA. There is not a single Democrat who sees anything wrong with the government sending herbal product formulators to prison. There is not a single Democrat who believes that an Amish farmer has the right to milk a cow and sell that milk to their neighbor without being threatened by the government.
This is an astonishing milestone in U.S. history. When those in Washington who pretend to represent the People openly and publicly vote to crush the very liberties and freedoms they claim to protect, you no longer have a real Democracy. You have a police state.
The Republicans are only slightly better on this issue, by the way. Most Republicans also voted against this amendment. But here are the good guys who supported it:
Kelly Ayotte (R-NH)
John Boozman (R-AR)
Jim Coburn (R-OK)
John Cornyn (R-TX)
Mike Crapo (R-ID)
Jim DeMint (R-SC)
Mike Johanns (R-NE)
Ron Johnson (R-WI)
Mike Lee (R-UT)
Rand Paul (R-KY)
Jim Risch (R-ID)
John Thune (R-SD)
Pat Toomey (R-PA)
David Vitter (R-LA)
Roger Wicker (R-MS)
All the above Senators — who just happen to be Republicans — deserve your thanks, by the way. Call their offices and tell them how much you appreciate them standing up for fundamental food freedom and farm freedom, even if you don’t agree with their positions on everything else.
The really astonishing point in all this is that out of 100 US Senators, only 15 voted to stop FDA tyranny against farmers.
Just a generation ago, this vote would have been 99 in favor and 1 opposed. But today, with the rise of the corrupt, criminal government police state, 85% of U.S. Senators have joined the criminal gang and only seek to expand the power of that criminality. This is a sobering realization about where our country is headed and just how little time we all have left to restore liberty before the whole thing collapses into a total police state takeover with our government murdering millions.
There is no more dangerous entity in the history of the world than a power-hungry government. Inevitably, all such governments quickly turn evil and destructive, often ending in the mass death of tens of millions of innocents. The ghosts of Hitler, Stalin, Mao and other regimes now echo throughout the chambers of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. With each new vote — the Patriot Act, NDAA, Food Safety Modernization Act, etc. — our own representatives thrust us one step closer to a totalitarian dictatorship. Step by step, day by day, a future of mass government death and destruction where the People are stripped of all freedoms inches every closer.
This must be stopped. America is worth saving from its enemies, even if those enemies exist within the highest ranks of the legislative branch itself. It is the duty of every American to take all (non-violent) steps necessary to remove traitors from office and demand loyalty to the U.S. Constitution and its Bill of Rights, or we will soon find ourselves conquered, enslaved, medicated and malnourished, force-fed GMOs and vaccinated at gunpoint by a tyrannical medical police state that answers only to its corporate masters.
Stand your ground, friends. Stand for liberty. Without liberty, there is no future worth fighting for, and as things exist in the U.S. Senate today, there is not a single Democrat who believes in liberty at all (and few Republicans who do either).
I say Rand Paul for President 2016.

Fructose makes you stupid; DHA makes you smart
Saturday, May 26th, 2012
(NaturalNews) A recent study in rats examined the effect of omega-3 fats (particularly DHA) and fructose on memory. Rats were trained to solve a maze and then given either a diet with omega-3 fats (DHA and flax seed oil) or one deficient in omega-3 fats. Each group was further divided into those also fed fructose in their drinking water or not. The group that was fed the fructose showed impairment of memory and took a longer time to solve the maze than prior to eating fructose. Those fed an omega-3 deficient diet and fructose fared the worst in the memory task. The rats fed fructose and omega-3 fats did better.
The conclusion of this study was that rats fed fructose had impairment of their ability to solve a maze because of memory deficits. Those given DHA and fructose had an improvement in their memory. The mechanisms involved in the memory impairment seemed to be a direct result of brain insulin resistance induced by fructose and ameliorated by taking DHA.
This study is the first to document insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome effects in the brain. And it suggests that taking DHA improves insulin metabolism, even with a diet containing fructose that induces insulin resistance.
We can derive several take home messages from this simple study. We already know that the epidemic of obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes is in large part due to the consumption of high fructose corn syrup in the American diet. This study tells us that fructose also results in dysfunction in the brain associated with insulin metabolism. It also confirms the importance of DHA for brain function.
Here are the words of the authors. “These findings expand the concept of metabolic syndrome affecting the brain and provide the mechanistic evidence of how dietary habits can interact to regulate brain functions, which can further alter lifelong susceptibility to the metabolic disorders.”
Obesity and metabolic syndrome play a huge part in the epidemic of chronic inflammatory diseases including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Now we see that mental impairment is another part of this picture. Studies like this warn us that high fructose corn syrup should not be an ingredient in any foods in our diets. And supplements like omega-3 fats along with antioxidants can buffer the damage done to the body by corn syrup.
