Cell Phones Double Brain Tumor Risk

The risk of being diagnosed with a brain tumor doubles when using cell phones for 10 years or more.  The tumor appears on the same side of the head you hold your phone.

The Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States maintains comprehensive tumor incidence rates in the USA, and their data shows an increase in incidence of
brain tumors of about 36% in less than a decade. This increase is not explained by an aging population (because these figures were age-adjusted) or by better detection.

This report has 68 references and appeared in the journal Surgical Neurology in September, 2009.

When you sign up for a new cell phone plan, you sign away your right to sue.  Use a headset or a landline.

Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio easily understood.

The ratio of omega-3 fats to omega-6 fats in our body should be 1:1.  There is a blood test that you can take to get your number.  Omega-3's come primarily from fish, flax, stems and wild game.  Cows and chickens that eat their natural diets are also omega-3's. 

50 years ago, cows and chickens ate their natural diet.  Cows ate grass and chickens scratched the ground and ate seeds and insects.

Now 100% of all commercial chickens are fed one food their whole life - corn.  93% of all commercial cows eat one food - corn!  Their bodies are no longer omega-3.  Their fats are now omega-6.  This is why some people and research say "meat is bad".  It's because the meat was fed bad food.

Omega-6's also come from all other fats and oils including processed and fried foods.

If your ratio is 1 omega-3 to 15 omega-6 (1:15), then you are guaranteed to get a chronic, degenerative disease like Alzheimers, heart disease, arthritis, etc. at some point in your life.

The average American's ratio is 1:25.  This means you!  How do you reverse this?  Eat salads, grass-fed beef and free-range chickens. Take a fish oil supplement at a minimum of 1 big capsule a day or 1 gram.  If you want that blood test, let us know and we'll set you up with it.

A political statement:  The original problem here is subsidized corn.  Cheap corn is being fed to our farm animals and it should not be.  Research shows the worst meat you can put in your mouth is farm-raised tilapia fish because it is fed corn and soy (also subsidized).  The second worst meat you can eat is farm-raised catfish.

Pass It On

"I was constantly fatigued, requiring a nap after work almost daily. I would have profound mood swings when hungry. Additionally, I was unable to maintain a regular health regimen due to lack of energy. Now, I'm feeling much better. I'm able to run three times a week, which I have never been able to do before. Dr. Schmidt found adrenal fatigue and the supplements helped dramatically. I've adjusted my diet (per Dr. Schmidt) to include larger amounts of protein early in the day which has helped with hunger and associated mood swings. This has made life more enjoyable for myself and those around me."

"I was experiencing heart palpitations and anxiety. I was told there was no explanation for these symptoms by my physician and again by a heart specialist. I also suffered from seasonal allergies and constant sore throats as soon as I felt run down or stressed. Now, I am 80% better with few to no symptoms on a daily basis. My heart rarely has noticeable beats like I felt before. My tonsils are now 1/2 the size and I don't take allergy medicine."

"Before I came to NHCAA six weeks ago, I thought I would have to live the rest of my life feeling lousy. I had headaches in the morning, extreme hip and leg pains, sleepless nights, and no energy. I would have to take a nap nearly every day after work. My blood sugars were high and blood pressure needed medication. My physician would give my a new prescription drug for every symptom. I hated that and felt that there had to be a better way. Now, I feel fantastic! I am no longer taking blood pressure meds, I have lost 22 pounds, my energy level has gone through the roof. My hip pain is 75% better. It is hard to believe just six weeks ago I felt hopelessly ill. With the help of the great staff at NHCAA, I am on the road to a 100% recovery in the near future. Thank you everyone and Bless you."
