"When I'm reviewing products (and I review a lot of products and books), I have absolutely no financial interest whatsoever in those products. I've repeated this over and over, but sometimes people find it hard to believe, so I have to keep repeating it.
When I review a product, like Berry Green, or I look at some of the Amazon herb products, or I review certain herbs or nutritional supplements, I make absolutely nothing when you go out and buy those products. I recommend them because I believe in them and I know that they work, I know they can make people healthier." - Mike Adams, Spam Filters for Your Brain (Get the book.)
| "All the studies had been combined into a review that was published in a major psychology journal. The review concluded that the effects had been small but significant.5
The Love Study's design was also inspired by the major DMILS studies conducted since 1963, which demonstrated that under many types of circumstances, the electrical signaling in the brains of people gets synchronized.6 The frequencies, amplitudes, and phases of the brain waves start operating in tandem." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)
"Eventually, Vedral managed to publish his paper in Physical review Letters, the premier physics journal.12 After Nature decided to publish Ghosh's study, its editors threw him a conciliatory bone. They allowed him to be a reviewer on the paper, and then offered him a place in the same issue to write an opinion piece on the findings.
In the article, Vedral allowed himself some speculation."

| "In 2004 the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) published a review of treatments for generalized anxiety disorder that failed to even mention exercise. It was primarily a rundown of our most common antianxiety drugs, with a nod to therapy and relaxation. Of the thirteen pharmaceuticals charted in the review, all bear a formidable list of possible side effects. None have been endorsed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as explicitly safe during pregnancy—not an incidental point given that women are twice as likely to suffer from anxiety and depression as men." - John J. Ratey, MD, Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain (Get the book.)
| "He had brought in reams of research literature for them to read and review, but the doctors still wouldn't hear of it. Bob became so upset that he finally went directly to the hospital administration, but instead of interceding on his behalf, they asked him to leave the hospital. Lawyers became involved. It was a disaster.
Because of their lack of knowledge about coenzyme Qiq, as well as their fear about and bias against nonconventional therapies, the doctors refused to even consider this alternative treatment for Mary. Her concerned family was labeled "interfering." - Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D., The Sinatra Solution Metabolic Cardiology (Get the book.)
| "Each chapter and every report of research has nor gone through the lengthy review process of a certified board or selected panel of "experts" with a history of seeing our world through the eyes of a single field of study, such as physics, math, or psychology.
?This is a well-researched and well-documented guide. It has been written in a reader-friendly way that describes the experiments, case studies, historical records, and personal experiences that support an empowering way of seeing ourselves in the world.

"In it, Beecher described his review of more than two dozen medical case histories and his findings, documenting that up to one-third of the patients healed from essentially nothing. The term used to describe this phenomenon was the placebo response—or, as it is more commonly known, the placebo effect.
The Latin word placebo was used in early Christian traditions as part of the ritual reading of Psalms 116:9. This passage begins with the words Placebo Domino in regione vivorum, which mean "I shall please the Lord in the land of the living."

| "Precautions: If you have a knee or hip replacement, review this stretch with your physical therapist or physician before trying it.
Push-ups: Pain Relief for the Neck and Shoulder Area
Most people think of push-ups as a way to build pecs (chest muscles), and they will. But the hidden benefit is what push-ups can do for your neck and your back between your shoulder blades. As you do push-ups, you suspend your neck and thoracic spine. You may hear and feel cracks and pops while you're doing push-ups." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.)
"On the CDC Web site, you can review trends in U.S. obesity over time. The map on this URL shows 2005 state-by-state percentages of people whose body mass index is 30 or higher: www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/ dnpa/obesity/trend/index.htm.
The Body Mass Index (BMI) reflects body weight adjusted for a person's height. Multiply your weight (lbs.) by 703 and divide by your height (in.) squared to find your BMI. If your BMI is higher than 25, you're overweight, according to CDC standards."

"A recent review of research looking at vitamin D treatment for osteoporosis published in the Journal of the American Medical Association showed an average 26 percent reduction in hip fractures and a 23 percent reduction in all nonspine fractures. This magnitude of protection exceeds the benefits seen with some medications currently approved by the FDA for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.
These benefits were seen only in studies using 800 IU per day or more of vitamin D. Studies that looked at lower doses showed no decrease in fracture rates."

| "I implemented this approach in my practice, and the response to it was so favorable that I performed an informal, unpublished retrospective review of the first fifty-nine children whom I had treated with IV-glutathione. I noted improvements in approximately 75 percent of this group of autistic children. The kids responded with increased calmness, language development, eye contact, and focus. Of the remaining 25 percent, about half of them showed no response, and the other half responded negatively, with increased stimming and agitation." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)
| "A scholarly review of the subject in the Postgraduate Medical Journal in 1976 revealed that calcium deficiency caused by an insufficient amount of calcium in the diet is not known to occur in humans at all.36
CANCERS
T. Colin Campbell did a twenty-seven-year study, published as The China Study, jointly arranged by Cornell, Oxford, and the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine. Funded by the National Institutes of Health, the American Cancer Society, and the American Institute for Cancer Research, the study was called by the New York Times the "Grand Prix of Epidemiology." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)
"A 2001 Harvard review of the research put a finer point on it:
Twelve of ... fourteen case-control studies and seven of ... nine cohort studies [have] observed a positive association for some measure of dairy products and prostate cancer; this is one of the most consistent dietary predictors for prostate cancer in the published literature [italics added]. In these studies, men with the highest dairy intakes had approximately double the risk of total prostate cancer, and up to a fourfold increase in risk of metastatic or fatal prostate cancer relative to low consumers."

"FLUORIDE
According to "Fluoride in Drinking Water: A Scientific review of EPAs Standards," made public by the National Research Council in 2006:
The conclusion from the available studies is that sufficient fluoride exposure appears to bring about increases in blood glucose or impaired glucose tolerance in some individuals and to increase the severity of some types of diabetes. In general, impaired glucose metabolism appears to be associated with serum or plasma fluoride concentrations of about 0.1 mg/L or greater in both animals and humans."

| "Since joining the staff of NIAAA in 1976, he has held a number of institute positions, from scientific review administrator to director of the Office of Scientific Affairs (OSA). During his twenty two years as OSA director, he was also the executive secretary for the National Advisory Council on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.
In February 1977, Dr. Warren organized the first national research workshop on fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS). This conference set a research agenda on FAS and also recommended that NIAAA alert the medical community about FAS and the risks posed by prenatal alcohol.

"Always review the vaccine packaging before immunizing your children.
Ask to see the package insert and really look at that little sheet of paper that's folded up about six times in the box. You'll find a paragraph that tells you what exactly is in the vaccine—if it contains thimerosal, or aluminum, or any other preservative. It's really easy to read. Go over this information carefully and don't hesitate to ask questions as they arise. If the vaccine contains thimerosal, or aluminum, or any other ingredient that might concern you, ask for a preservative-free alternative."

"A recent statistical review of fifty-four published reports of studies on autism, ASDs, and related disorders conducted between 1966 and 2003 in the United States and the United Kingdom reported that changes in diagnostic criteria or improvements in identifying cases could not fully explain the large increases in rates of autism and ASDs.
Parents' occupations might also contribute to these increases. "Historically, the parents of ASD children have tended to have odd professions—things like metalworking that increase risks of exposure," said Dr. Lathe. "

| "We'll review and summarize all of the technical and detailed information. So let's very briefly summarize what we have learned so far, to help bring it all into better focus.
?It's all about ATP Hearts, skeletal muscles, and every other tissue in our bodies have an absolute need for adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, as their primary energy currency. Cells and tissues will cease to function if they are not provided with a constant and stable supply of energy.

| "Let us briefly review a typical day of Juice Feasting. You wake up to a quart of water to assist in rehydration (the body loses 1?.5 quarts of water during the night), and with that water you can add MSM, 15 drops of Natural Cellular Defense, and 3-5 caps of proteolytic enzyme Vitalzym. Next is an enema with warm water to release any waste matter made ready for evacuation while you rested during the night, then dry skin brushing and a warm shower. Once your warm shower is complete, you can add a hot/cool shower as described above." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)

"However, a review of the scientific literature clearly shows that carnosine can be absorbed intact through the GI tract. Furthermore, carnosine's precursors, beta-alanine and histidine, have been shown in a number of studies to boost carnosine levels, so if there are any lingering concerns about direct carnosine supplementation, beta-alanine and histidine can be used instead.
The suggested dosage of carnosine for patients with diabetes is at least 1,000 mg daily and preferably 3,000 to 6,000 mg daily, or comparable amounts of beta-alanine and histidine. No side effects have been noted."

| "Research the new vaccines recommended for your children well in advance and review any new or updated information. Possible adverse reactions to vaccines include:
• Fever. While a low fever may be expected, a percentage of children will develop a fever that exceeds 102 degrees Fahrenheit shortly after, or up to twelve days, following vaccination, which can last several days. I recommend that you report any fever your child develops to your physician. If your child's fever falls within the normal range, many physicians do not recommend treating it with Tylenol.

MEDICATION FOR ASTHMA
Asthma medications, as parents of most kids with asthma already know, consist of two categories: drugs that help control the inflammation that underlies asthma, and drugs that relieve symptoms during an acute asthma episode. Most kids must use both types of medication.
The drugs that control inflammation on an ongoing basis are either steroidal, or nonsteroidal." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)

| "The centerpiece of Congress's challenge was the requirement to review and reassess—within a decade—the tolerances (maximum permitted residues) for all food-use pesticides to ensure they met a new, strict safety standard.
Prior to the FQPA, the laws governing food safety were a bit fuzzy, or at least they allowed for a lot of leeway." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.)
"This entailed an effort that included the detailed review of tens of thousands of toxicology, chemistry, and environmental studies as well as the application of new risk assessment methods and policies. Good news: this ten-year effort, based on sound science and broad public participation, resulted in the strictest protective standards for pesticide regulation for all Americans, especially infants and children. More than 4,300 individual pesticide registrations were canceled because they were deemed unsafe (a good thing!)."
