Let Nature help you Prevent Rheumatoid Arthritis


A new study reported in the Personal Liberty Digest reveals that Green Tea may prevent or halt the progression of rheumatoid arthritis.

Studies on rats have been extremely positive and human studies are underway.

Green tea, which is rich in a chemical compound called polyphenol, is a powerful antioxidant - more powerful than vitamins C and E. Unlike pharmaceutical "remedies" this naturally occurring compound carries no adverse side effects.

The prescription you get from a doctor could very well give you leukemia or bladder cancer - while green tea can help prevent cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and obesity.

It's clear to me which cure to choose... how about you?

A Day for Medication Recalls

Today brought news of two recalls. One in veterinary medicine and one in Johnson & Johnson over-the-counter products.

If you have a dog or cat, you need to know because all veterinarians have not yet been informed - even though the recall was MONTHS ago.

And, if you have Tylenol, Benadryl, Rolaids, or any other Johnson & Johnson products in your home, you need to find out if they're among the contaminated lots.

Go to Pharm-free health to read both this morning's post about veterinary medicine and tonight's about Johnson & Johnson.

Dogs Best Technology in Cancer Detection

We all know dogs have a keen sense of smell...

But a new report says that in tests, dogs can best technology in detecting lung, breast, and other cancers.

Simply by smelling a human's breath, a trained dog is accurate 88-97% of the time, while multi-million dollar scanners boast an accuracy rate between 85-90%

I think if someone told me I had cancer, I might want to get a second opinion from a dog before subjecting myself to surgery!
