"The optimal intake of these drinks is zero," said one expert. "They have no health benefits."

Drinking sugary beverages is associated with a slightly increased risk for early death, a new study has found.

Researchers used data from two large continuing health studies begun in the 1980s that include more than 118,000 men and women. Among many other health, behavioral and diet characteristics, the researchers collected data about their consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages, including noncarbonated fruit punches, lemonades and other sugary fruit drinks.

Comment: Diet soda's are NOT a reasonable alternative. They are toxic chemical garbage that are not fit for human consumption. Stop looking for entertainment from your beverages and drink water!

SOTT Focus: Glyphosate Use is Far Worse Than We Could Imagine

As new studies continue to point to a direct link between the widely-used glyphosate herbicide and various forms of cancer, the agribusiness lobby fights ferociously to ignore or discredit evidence of human and other damage. A second US court jury case just ruled that Monsanto, now a part of the German Bayer AG, must pay $ 81 million in damages to plaintiff Edwin Hardeman who contracted non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cancer. The ruling and a line-up of another 11,000 pending cases in US courts going after the effects of glyphosate, have hit Bayer AG hard with the company announcing several thousand layoffs as its stock price plunges.

In a trial in San Francisco the jury was unanimous in their verdict that Monsanto Roundup weed-killer, based on glyphosate, had been responsible for Hardeman's cancer. His attorneys stated, "It is clear from Monsanto's actions that it does not care whether Roundup causes cancer, focusing instead on manipulating public opinion and undermining anyone who raises genuine and legitimate concerns about Roundup." It is the second defeat for the lawyers of Monsanto after another jury ruled in 2018 that Glyphosate-based Roundup was responsible for the cancer illness of a California school grounds-keeper who contracted the same form of cancer after daily spraying school grounds with Roundup over years, unprotected. There a jury found Monsanto guilty of "malice and oppression" in that company executives, based on internal email discovery, knew that their glyphosate products could cause cancer and suppressed this information from the public.

Run with it! Model vaccine safety legislation introduced in Texas provides excellent template

vaccine legislation
Consider this a "call to action," plus an alert for the entire United States, if not the global community.

It's a call to assert the moral, religious and legal rights of healthcare consumers globally to know about; have access to data, prior to vaccination; and to exercise their unalienable right to the choice of care for their health, body, mind and spirit, including that of their children.

Consider this a long-missing - but definitely long-needed - call for legal relief from Big Pharma's and the CDC/FDA's deceptive propaganda campaigns regarding vaccines and vaccinations since the passage of the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 (42 U.S.C. §§ 300aa-1 to 300aa-34), which has seen mandatory vaccines skyrocket to the current 69 doses of 16 vaccines a child receives starting with the very first day of life!

Nothing attests to the fallacies of vaccine 'science safety' than the contradictory data HHS and HRSA (Health Resources & Services Administration) produce documenting expenditures for vaccine adverse reactions, injuries and claims, including legal fees, here, Page 9.

US $4,119,686,42.89 [billion] is not exactly 'chicken feed'!

If nothing more, that amount proves something is wrong; needs to be reviewed; and definitely corrected, specifically the inaccurate "lie now become a truth" vaccines are safe!

Comment: As we've been documenting here on Sott, the information war and push to vaccinate everyone and their mother has reached something of a fever pitch in recent months. Its high time the push back from a concerned and conscientious public be ramped-up in response. And suggesting the above template to one's legislators is certainly one way to do it.

Half of Western Australian health workers refuse flu vaccination

flu vaccine
As health officials prepare to promote flu season jabs for West Australians, new figures show only half of all health workers caring for our sickest patients get vaccinated.

Department of Health figures show that 50.4 per cent of nurses, doctors and other health workers were vaccinated last year against the deadly influenza virus.

That figure was only 4.8 per cent higher than in 2017 despite an effort by health bosses to increase the rate through an initiative to force workers to "actively decline" vaccinations.

The new rules meant that any workers refusing to be vaccinated had to explain why they were declining.

New evidence shows dandelion root causes cancer cells to 'destroy themselves'

Dandelion root
Here in North America it seems as though we have become obsessed with the idea of having a lush, perfectly green yard to show off to our neighbors. But what we likely don't realize is that we could be killing off something that has not only some amazing medicinal uses, but also the potential to kill cancer cells.

Researchers from the University of Windsor, Canada have been given over $200,000 in grant money to perform an elaborate study on the effects of using dandelion roots to treat cancer.

The leaves, flowers, and roots of dandelions have long been used in traditional medicine to treat digestive issues and urinary tract infections, and also to cleanse the liver. The dandelion is actually loaded with vitamins and minerals such as: A, C, D, E and B complex, calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, zinc, manganese, copper, choline, and boron. I think it is safe to say that dandelion tea is actually a superfood.

Study finds substantial numbers of young people at risk of liver cancer, diabetes and heart attacks

Experts are warning that high levels of fatty liver disease among young people, caused by being overweight, could signal a potential public health crisis.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is fairly common among older adults, detectable in about a quarter of the population. But a study has found that substantial numbers of 24-year-olds are also affected, putting them at risk of serious later health problems, such as liver cancer, type-2 diabetes and heart attacks.

Medical police state cuts off research funding from scientist who found that vaccines cause autism

research
When it comes to the Religion of Vaccination, there's one area of research that's completely off-limits, and it encompasses looking into vaccine safety and effectiveness independently, and with an open mind. The reason for this, of course, is that every time a scientist dares to do this, he or she typically discovers that vaccines aren't nearly as safe or effective as the medical police state claims - which instantly makes said scientist a target of the medical establishment, which has no qualms about doing almost anything in order to silence the truth.

One recent and prominent example of this type of medical tyranny involves Professor Chris Exley of Keele University in the United Kingdom, whose focused research into aluminum toxicity led him to conclude that childhood vaccines, many of which contain neurotoxic aluminum, can, in fact, cause autism - a discovery that, if you've been following independent vaccine science for any considerable period of time, is inherently "controversial" and a recipe for trouble.

The WHO uses common sense and withdraws its support for plant based planetary health diet

plant based diet
A radical 'planetary health diet' suggests people should replace nearly all meat and dairy with beans while doubling their vegetable intake. It was widely ridiculed by experts when it was announced in January.
The World Health Organization has backed out of sponsoring an event promoting a radical diet that drastically cuts back on meat.

The UN body planned to support the launch event of the scientific group behind the controversial 'planetary health diet', dismissed as 'nanny-state' madness.

Scientists say its adoption is vital to feed the world's booming population without destroying the environment and would improve the health of millions.

But the WHO stopped sponsoring the event following criticism there is 'no scientific justification' for everyone in the world to adopt a standard diet.

The British Medical Journal first reported the WHO had dropped out of the EAT-Lancet Commission on Food, Planet, Health event in Switzerland.

Comment: How refreshing.

Popping vitamins is no substitute for eating nutritious foods, study suggests

A decade-long observational study of more than 30,000 people finds that certain vitamins and minerals may help extend your life and keep you from dying of cardiovascular disease-but only if you get those beneficial nutrients from foods, not supplements.

The study, published this week in the Annals of Internal Medicine, is yet another to find that taking supplemental vitamins and minerals-either individually or in multivitamins-offers no discernible benefits in terms of reducing risks of death generally or death from cardiovascular disease and cancers, specifically. Simply put, popping pills can't take the place of eating a healthy diet-an unflashy takeaway that likely won't please the massive, $30 billion supplement industry.

Moreover, the study didn't just find a lack of benefits from supplements. It also found potential harms. Getting high doses of calcium (1,000 mg or more per day) from supplements-but not from foods-was linked to higher cancer mortality risks in the study. Likewise, people taking vitamin D supplements who didn't have vitamin D deficiencies may have higher risks of all-cause mortality and death from cancers.

It's unclear from this observational study exactly why the same vitamins and minerals had different effects based on whether they were, say, chewed from a salad or gulped in a tightly packed capsule. But, it's likely due to the fact that our bodies are tuned by evolution to best absorb and use micronutrients at the levels and ratios found in foods.
