New Studies Reveal Stunning Evidence that Cell Phone Radiation Damages DNA, Brain
No surprise here - I've never been a fan of cell phones, and this helps confirm why.

Triumph Over Disease by Fasting and Natural Diet - by Jack Goldstein
I read this book years ago and was fascinated by the message: natural healing from a severely degenerative case of ulcerative colitis through a controlled fast. There is some remarkable material in this book, and even more fascinating to me is how LITTLE you ever hear about the health benefits of fasting from the medical community (presumably, there are just too many ties to the food industry and too much revenue to lose if everyone started fasting in order to heal.)
But the premise is simple enough: you fast, and by doing so you give your digestive system a "break", so that more energies can be focused to other systems like the immune system. I really think there's something to this, considering the vast amount of space and resources that the body has devoted simply to eating, metabolizing and digesting. Worth checking out.

Hand sanitizers no better than ordinary soaps in battling colds or flu
Researchers found that test subjects who used the sanitizers had a 42 percent rate of coming down with a cold, versus 51 percent of the volunteers who didn't use them.
As for the flu, some 12 percent of volunteers who used a sanitizer got the flu, as compared with 15 percent who didn't use a hand sanitizer.

Controversial STD drug tied to 16 more deaths
Article on the Gardasil vaccine and related complications, including the account of a 19 year old patient who experienced "Headache, nausea, dizziness, chilling, tiredness, shortness of breath, complained of chest pain, severe cramps." She died of "acute cardiac arrhythmia." Said the report, "Attempts to resuscitate her resulted in a sternal fracture, but were unsuccessful and the patient died."
Sadly, I used to see a physician who wrote a report on this vaccine saying it was harmless - even worse was that Gov. Rick Perry at one point wanted to mandate this vaccine for all girls in Texas.

Another informative site regarding post-vasectomy chronic pain, PainAfterVasectomy.org. Written by A. Ellis, MD, its intended for patients with post-vasectomy pain and for the physicians who treat them.

Vasectomy Immunologic Consequences
Another informative site with a large collection of documentation on vasectomy risks - of interest to me are the immunological consequences. Per the site:
"When this barrier is broken by vasectomy and sperm are “presented” to the immune system, new anti-sperm antibodies are formed and the previous “normal” immune response becomes abnormal in strength, specific antibody types, and perseverance of response"
And that's for the rest of the life of a man, unless the surgery is somehow reversed, and even then its chancy if the reversal will work.
I've posted a number of links on vasectomy risks/complication and pain if, for no other reason, to serve as a reference for me later, but I would hope that men would do more research prior to getting surgery like this, to know what all the risks are.
Surgical Sterilizations: "Fixing" Something That Is Not Broken
Here's an interesting, and somewhat terrifying, article that includes a collection of references about vasectomy complications. I've been researching this, and, much like aspartame, gardasil, and other things scientists tell us are perfectly "safe", I remain skeptical.
This reference caught my attention:
"Post vasectomy pain syndrome… can turn a previously fit man into a chronic invalid. Even if the operation was painless, and not accompanied by the bruising and immediate post-operative discomfort which is quite common, weeks, months or years after the operation, nagging pain begins at the site. Sometimes tender cysts, or lumps called granulomas, can arise around the cut ends of the vas, and even if further surgery is performed to cut them out, the pain persists. This can be one of the most difficult problems in andrology to treat, especially as the precise cause is usually unknown. More research is urgently needed to prevent and treat the condition…."

Oil spill may endanger human health, officials say
I've been following the stories about the oil spill in the gulf, being of interest to me as I live in a gulf state not too far off from where this is happening. This has been devastating news to read about, and my prayers are that they can get this taken care of quickly. It's troubling reading articles like this one about the potential health effects ranging from "temporary, minor nuisances such as runny noses and headaches to long-term risks such as cancer if contaminated seafood ends up in the marketplace." I'm not a big fan of shellfish in the first place, but I do occasionally enjoy seafood from the gulf. Not anymore, I guess...
I once read that "science is violence against nature", and that phrase comes to mind with a disaster like this. I wonder how much scientific research into fossil fuels and their utilization sees its ultimate fulfillment in environmental disaster like this one?
