Calcium Can Be Toxic

Yes the same calcium that every time you turn around someone is saying is good for you. Calcium becomes plaque that blocks arteries and causes high blood pressure, shortness of breath, chest, arm or leg pain along with fatigue are critical symptoms indicating artery blockage !

Remove the water and you are mostly calcium!

Calcium not only makes up your bones, it is also in your nerves, muscles and almost every cell in in your body. You get calcium from everything you eat and drink, just like you, the plants and animals you consume provide you with calcium.

Do you know that Calcium is a metal and that minerals is another term for metals !

The simple act of taking Vitamins with Minerals can promote disease. Metals when digested and added to the blood must be bound to an enzyme. Enzymes are like the horse pulling a cart (the metal) to where it belongs and can be used by the body. When metals enter the blood and do not bind with the proper enzyme, disease can and usually does occur.

When calcium is not bound to an enzyme it may be randomly stored anywhere in the body and that leads to diseases of the; heart and arteries, may cause kidney stones, gallstones, bone spurs, prostate and breast nodules, arthritis, osteoporosis, vision loss, memory loss, ringing of the ears, Pancreatitis leading to diabetes and about 80% of all diseases we get as human beings.

Here is a surprise. All calcium is not the same, nor is it digestible or recognizable by the body, therefore, the body is often unable to process or use it. There are many forms of calcium and dozens of chemical compounds of calcium. Some good, most are very bad.

You Can Lose Your Health From Too Much Calcium

Everything you eat and almost everything you drink is loaded with calcium. No matter what you have been told in the past, humans do not need to take calcium supplements, ever. More surprising, after the age of three you should have stopped eating dairy products. The human body can only tolerate so much calcium and butter fat and as evidenced by autopsies in Viet Nam on American soldiers in there early 20s, most showed early stages of Cardiovascular disease.

No two ways about it, taking the wrong calcium,
like Coral Calcium, causes major health problems!

1. Calcium Carbonate (Bad) - causes scale and plaque. Coral Calcium is a crushed rock form of calcium like limestone, clam shells and marble, they are like the scale in your plumbing, which is known as calcium carbonate. This form of calcium is not soluble in water and is not bio-available. If Calcium builds up in the arteries it becomes plaque and restricts blood flow causing major health issues.

2. Calcium Bicarbonate ( Good and water soluble) - found in meats, fruits and vegetables this calcium builds strong bones when it is properly bound to enzymes can be utilized by the body.

This is one example of excess calcium use. My wife went in for a check up, her Doctor said she had osteoporosis and was losing bone mass, he prescribed calcium carbonate pills. A few days after taking the calcium she started to get a bone spur on her foot. She called her doctor and he said "she will need to see a foot specialist". I told her to stop taking the calcium pills. She stopped and the next day her foot was better, three days later the spur was completely gone. Should she have taken a different calcium like calcium citrate? No, she did not need more calcium she had to much calcium that her body could not use. She was taking the bad Calcium (Carbonate)

Mammograms

Dear Ladies,

Is it any wonder that nowadays more and more women globally are having Breast Cancer. The coincidence is, more and more organisations, doctors and government hospitals are pushing women to go for mammograms.

PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE CONSEQUENCES.

Be Aware!

Mammograms - ladies, please note it for health reasons and send them to other ladies that you know and gentlemen, please disseminate this message to all the ladies in your lives.

Well for starters mammograms expose your body to radiation that can be 1,000 times
greater than that from a chest x-ray,which poses risks of cancer. Mammography also compresses your breasts tightly, and often painfully, which could lead to a lethal spread of cancerous cells, should they exist.

"The premenopausal breast is highly sensitive to radiation, each 1 radiation exposure increasing breast cancer risk by about 1 percent, with a cumulative 10 percent increased risk for each breast over a decade's screening," points out Dr. Samuel Epstein, one of the top cancer experts..

Dr. Epstein, M.D., professor emeritus of Environmental and Occupational Medicine at the University of Illinois School of Public Health, and Chairman of the Cancer Prevention Coalition, has been speaking out about the risks of mammography since at least 1992.

As for how these misguided mammography guidelines came about, Epstein says: "They were conscious, chosen, politically expedient acts by a small group of people for the sake of their own power,prestige and financial gain, resulting in suffering and death for millions of women.

They fit the classification of "crimes against humanity". Not surprisingly, as often happens when anyone dares speak out against those in power, both the American Cancer Society and NCI called Dr. Epstein's findings "unethical and invalid."

But this didn't stop others from speaking out as well. In July 1995, The Lancet again wrote about mammograms, saying "The benefit is marginal, the harm caused is substantial, and the costs incurred are enormous ..."

Dr. Charles B. Simone, a former clinical associate in immunology and pharmacology at the National Cancer Institute, said, "Mammograms increase the risk for developing breast cancer and raise the risk of spreading or metastasizing an existing growth". The high sensitivity of the breast, especially inyoung women,to radiation-induced cancer was known by 1970.

Nevertheless, the establishment then screened some 300,000 women with Xray dosages so high as to increase breast cancer risk by up to 20 percent in women aged 40 to 50 who were mammogramed annually," wrote Dr. Epstein.

Safe Screening Methods do Exist: The Benefits of Thermography

But you're not likely to hear about them from your general practitioner. " ... The establishment ignores safe and effective alternatives to mammography, particularly trans illumination with infrared scanning,"

Dr. Epstein points out. Most physicians continueto recommend mammograms for fear of being sued by a woman who develops breast cancer after which he did not advise her to get one. But I encourage you to think for yourself and consider safer, more effective alternatives to mammograms.

The option for breast screening that I most highly recommend is called thermography.

Thermographic breast screening is brilliantly simple. It measures the radiation of infrared heat from your body and translates this information into anatomical images. Your normal blood circulation is under the control of your autonomic nervous system, which governs your body functions.

Thermography uses no mechanical pressure or ionizing radiation, and can detect signs of breast cancer years earlier than either mammography or a physical exam.

Mammography cannot detect a tumor until after it has been growing for years and reaches a certain size.

Thermography is able to detect the possibility of breast cancer much earlier, because it can image the early stages of angiogenesis (the formation of a direct supply of blood to cancer cells, which is a necessary step before they can grow into tumors of size).

New Tool Helps Predict Alzheimer’s Risks - Reuters

CHICAGO—U.S. researchers have developed a checklist that can accurately predict whether a person over 65 is at high risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease within six years.

The checklist of risk factors like slowness of mind or movement predicted about half the cases of dementia that developed in a group of elderly people over a six-year period, the researchers reported in the journal Neurology on May 13.

An estimated 26 million people globally have Alzheimer’s disease, the most common form of dementia. The disease starts out with mild memory loss and confusion but escalates into complete memory loss and an inability to care for oneself.

Researcher Deborah Barnes of the University of California, San Francisco, said having a tool that can predict the risk of developing Alzheimer’s could help doctors keep an eye on patients and help companies develop drugs to treat the early stages of the mind-robbing disease, which has no cure and few effective treatments.

“This new risk index could be very important both for research and for people at risk of developing dementia and their families,” Barnes said in a statement.

The tool consists of a 15-point scale of several well-known risk factors for Alzheimer’s—advanced age, low scores on tests of thinking skills, and having the ApoE4 gene, which raises the genetic risks of developing it.

It also includes some lesser-known risk factors, such as being underweight, having a history of heart bypass surgery, not drinking alcohol, or being slow to do physical tasks like buttoning a shirt.

People with a score of 8 or higher are considered at high risk of developing dementia within the next six years.

To develop the index, the team studied 3,375 people with an average age of 76 and no evidence of dementia. Over six years, 480 of the people developed dementia.

The researchers then looked to see which factors best predicted who would develop dementia.

When they evaluated the same group using the checklist, they found 56 percent of those with high scores had developed dementia within six years. That compared to 23 percent with moderate scores and just four percent with low scores.

Overall, the index correctly classified 88 percent of the participants.

Barnes said the risk index would need to be confirmed by other studies. Her team is also looking to see if a simpler version could be as accurate.
