3 Ways To Support GMI:
GreenMedInfo.com is the world's largest entirely
free and 100% evidence-based natural medical database. We are a free
and independent user-supported source of media.
While we hope we will have your support, it is important to
emphasize that all 16,000+ articles are free to view in their entirety
without having to register or contribute anything.
The membership (at a nominal 2.95 a month) sponsorship and donation
options simply provide a way for us to keep our solar-powered server
operating ($345 a month), without having to run advertisements or seek
outside money with strings attached. Your continued support also enables
us to provide members and sponsors a powerful set of time-saving
information retrieval and comprehension tools which are further
clarified here.

This month has been a
rollercoaster for our two person, entirely volunteer staff: I, Sayer
Ji, and our web developer Cameron Fillers, road out a storm of
server/software crashes that lasted two weeks and left myself and
especially Cameron with precious little sleep. We apologize for anyone
who suffered service interupptions, and are committed to preventing any
future outages by moving our server to Aiso.net's new highly scalable and much more energy-efficient web platform sometime in June. Other happenings.....
1) I
was a guest attendee at an Integrative Medical conference in Hollywood
Florida sponsored by Age Medicine Management Group April 28-29 and
chaired by my long term colleague Dr. Derrick DeSilva.
This event was deeply inspiring. Being amidst 400+ medical doctors
aspiring to integrate natural therapies into their practices reinstated
hope in me for the future of medicine in this country. Find out about
the AMMG's next conference in Nov. here. I plan on being there.
2) I was a guest on Dr. Rima Reports along with Professor Chris Busby where we discussed last month's newsletter topic,
namely, why 'there is no safe level of radiation' and how the present
radiation risk standards used by world governments are up to 5 orders
of magntitude off the mark in accurately determining the harms
associated with internalized "low-dose" radioisotope exposure. Video debrief here
3) I was a guest speaker at the Integrity Biofeedback Academy
and spoke on the topic of "Are You Dying To Lower Your Cholesterol?"
The powerpoint and streaming video presentation can be viewed through
the Webex plugin here.
4) NetGreenNews has volunteered to promote the cause of GMI through its new Health & Wellness portal http://ngnwellness.com/
Latest Research Stream.....
As many of you already know our Facebook page
is place where you can find a continual stream of updated GMI
research, dialogue and community interactivity. With over 11,000 fans
our page generates over 1.3 million impressions a month, according to
Facebook analytics. I spend quite a bit of my free time posting there.
Below are just a few of hundreds of posts found there each month.
Cancer Metastasis: Natural Anti-Metastatic Spices, Foods, Nutrients
Cancer is not some predestined gene-bomb setting itself off
within us, rather, a logical result of decades worth of cell
shock/damage/adaptation to environmental poisoning and nutrient
deprivation. These cells have learned to survive the constant abuse, and
flip into survival mode which is self-centered, hyper-proliferative
(constant self-repair/replication) and aggressive (metastatic).
Turmeric: "The Golden Goddess"
Ancient Indians believed that turmeric contained the energy
of the Divine Mother. Modern science now confirms that it has medical
relevance in over 500 medical conditions, with no less than 150
distinct pharmacological actions. Are these not exoteric descriptions of
"compassion" and "intelligence"? In Sanskrit turmeric is known as
“Gauri” (“The One Whose Face is Light and Shining”) and “Kanchani”
(“Golden Goddess”)
I am disturbed by "organic" infant formula which
contain ingredients classified as "corrosive," "irritant" and/or
"harmful" by conventional toxicological standards. What's going on here?
Bacterial Infections: Resistance/Biofilm Formation |
Fear is a normal response to antibiotic resistant
"super germs" IF you are unaware of the severe limitations of
conventional chemical warfare and the superior capabilities of natural
substances like cinnamon, garlic and honey at readjusting the terrain
back to a healthy microflora balance where the less friendly microbes
can not overwhelm and overrun the friendlier ones.
Is it really any wonder that the prevalence rate for
calcification disorders is so high? We actually consume limestone "for
our bones," and fortify a large percentage of our foods with inorganic
calcium to "enhance" its nutritional value. Given the increases of
"brain gravel," "breast calcification," "arterial calcification," etc.,
we should take note of substances which dissolve these pathological
deposits.
Red Yeast Rice: Superiority Over Statin Drugs
Weird, isn't it? A 25 billion dollar statin drug industry
owes its very existence to an unassuming yeast-fermented rice used as a
condiment in Asia? If one is going to subscribe to the "lipid
hypothesis" of heart disease then lowering cholesterol with a food makes
much more sense than using a biologically/evolutionarily unprecedented
chemical which exists only because it is a patentable alternative.
After receiving your supportive feedback and
reflecting on the situation more deeply we are resolute in our
commitment to provide this resource to the public as 100%
solar-powered. Please support this decision by considering becoming a
member or sponsor. We need 100 members to cover our server costs and
are already a third of the way there!
The Farmaceutical Future of Medicine: Sulforaphane
You aren't going to
find this one in the pharmaceutical pipeline anytime soon because
sulforaphane is found in cruciferous vegetables, and in up to 1,000
times higher levels in the seed sprouts versus the mature plant. It has
profound detoxifying, anti-infective, anti-cancer, neuroprotective and
life-promoting properties. Those who have thyroid disorders need not
fear as it is NOT goitrogenic.
Water increases gastric pH in healthy subjects.
We already found that earthworm paste is
superior to proton pump inhibitor drugs for healing gastric ulcer, but
this study steals the show. A glass of water effectively raises
(alkalinizes) the stomach ph within 1 minute versus up to 2 and 1/2
hours for a proton pump inhibitor drug. It is amazing what results
applying commonsense to "medical conditions" like indigestion can get
you!
Statin Drugs: 70+ Diseases Associated with Statin-Induced Poisoning & Nutrient Depletion
As our evaluation of statin drugs continue we have
identified an entire series of critical nutrient deficiencies caused by
this chemical class that reach beyond the well known CoQ10 depletion.
Statin use is also associated with copper, zinc, vitamin E and severe
selenium depletion. With 25 billion dollars in sales annually, it will
take time for doctors/patients to acknowledge they have been
poisoning/poisoned.
It shouldn't come to any great surprise that a few
carefully placed needles beats "therapeutic" fluoride poisoning
(Fluoxetine = Prozac) in alleviating depression. But just in case you
need proof.....
Infant Formula: 47 Diseases Connected To Its Use | GreenMedInfo
There are cases where formula is necessary, and
certainly homemade goat milk based formula is an alternative that is
rarely used. Also, with the human breast acting as a repository for
hundreds of known fat soluble toxins, e.g. perchlorate, mineral oil,
parabens, DDT, etc. its use may be justified in certain individuals.
However, the research can not be denied: mass market infant formula
causes disease.
Poisoning with "low-dose" (as if any dose of a
poison were acceptable) pesticides causes many of the features
associated with metabolic syndrome: obesity, dyslipidemia and insulin
resistance. The increased adiposity (fat tissue) that develops is a
logical result of the body cordoning off poisons to keep them from
wreaking havoc on more metabolically active and indispensable tissues.
Any organism whose soul is permeated with the
ability to bring peace of body and mind to another, deserves our
undying respect and appreciation - meet Lavender, a plant whose physical
beauty is matched, if not surpassed by its spiritual beauty.
Grapefruit: Solar Principle Incarnate
Have you ever glanced at a grapefruit and perceived it as a
vibrant archetypal incarnation of the solar principle? After all, does
it not look like the spitting image of the sun? Does not it's rind,
flesh and seeds burn through mucous and opportunistic microbes that
thrive in damp, dark and oxygen deprived environments? Grapefruit
brings healing light into the body...
Chamomile has a knack for healing, which is why it
often grows near roads - these open sores of civilization - and is
sometimes known as "the plant doctor," because it helps the growth and
health of other plants.
Indole-3 carbinol reverses multidrug resistant melanoma in vivo.
Cruciferous vegetables, e.g. Broccoli, Cabbage, Collards,
Kale, are a great source of indole-3-carbinol, one of Nature's most
powerful anti-cancer agents.
Papaya: Evidence Supporting Its Use In 38 Conditions
Let's just say hypothetically the five billion CVC and
Walgreens drug stores in America shut their doors. Where would we get
our medicine? Well, Nature was doing a pretty good job before we
decided consuming fine chemicals excreted by the vast
pharmaceutical-petrochemical industrial complex was a far better idea.
Raw versus Cooked | GreenMedInfo
I believe that consuming raw food is essential for optimal
health, and yet I must acknowledge that cooking certain vegetables not
only does not lower the antioxidant capacity of those foods but may
actually raise it. I'm always learning here myself....

Quote of the Month
"We have
repressed far more than our sexuality: our very organic nature is now
unconscious to most of us, most of the time, and we have become
shrunken into two dimensional social or cultural beings, aware of only
five of the hundreds of senses that link us to the rich biological
nature that underlies and nourishes these more symbolic and recent
aspects of ourselves."
