Cancer: Intravenous Vitamin C Effective Treatment
National Institutes of Health has reexamined earlier studies administering high doses of intravenous ascorbate therapy in cultured cancer cell lines. It was noted that studies using intravenous and oral ascorbate were beneficial, while subsequent studies using only oral were not. The researchers found ascorbate killed cancer cells at concentrations that would only be achievable through intravenous infusion.

Hospital Cafeteria Food Is a Recipe for Illness
A nationwide survey of hospital cafeterias reveals that fewer than one-third offer either a daily salad bar or a daily low-fat, cholesterol-free entree. Moreover, a nutritional analysis reveals that many entrees described as healthful by hospitals are actually very high in artery-clogging fat. Sixty-two percent of these "healthiest entree" offerings derived more than 30 percent of calories from fat, and a few derived more than 50 percent of calories from fat.

Study Links DDT Residues to Early Miscarriages
Healthy, nonsmoking women with high levels of DDT residues in their bloodstream are far more likely to miscarry during the early weeks of pregnancy than those with lower levels. DDT production and its use were banned decades ago throughout most of the world due to concerns about its biologic persistence and potentially harmful effects on humans and animals. However, most people continue to carry the chemical's residue in their bodies, even if they live far from areas where DDT was used or produced.

CONTINUING OUR 12-STAGE JOURNEY TO WELLNESS
This week our journey focuses on FEELING, the 6th of 12 keys to wellness in the Wellness Inventory. We experience feelings and emotions from well before the event of our birth. They can be intense, or frightening, or wonderful. They can also be the most misunderstood, and consequently mistreated, gifts we have as human beings. We judge them, repress them, discount them, drug them, worship them, and run from them. Yet, what a bore to be without them! Life fully lived is life filled with feeling!

Nutritional Medicine and Longevity
In "Coenzyme Q10: A Miracle Vitamin" Richard Kunin, M.D. presents a nutrient that should be a household word. CoQ is required for cell energy and promotes faster healing of wounds, strengthens the immune system, and is an impressive treatment of heart conditions. Tissue levels of CoQ decline as much as 80% in old age and this single fact appears to explain some of the increased risk of heart failure, immune dysfunction, delayed healing and general weakening of energy and strength that are stereotypical of growing old. By simply taking supplements of CoQ, this age-related drop in vitality can be reversed to an amazing extent.

With over 30,000 genes each person is Bio-Chemically unique. After 20 years of clinical research, on over 20,000 clients, analyzing over 100 vital blood, tissue and urine tests a group of scientists can now determine each individual's basic nutrient needs.

Mind Over Matter
A fascinating university research study is helping us to understand the important relationship between stress and fat. In "The Stress-Fat Connection: The Thick and Thin of Your Figure" Barry Bittman, M.D. explains how scientists tracked women's "central fat" (the stuff located primarily around your mid-section) increased with perceived distress. The influencing factor appears to be the amount of cortisol secreted.

Spiritual Wellness
Disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina, that destroy innocent lives invariably raise questions about the kind of universe in which we live. In "After the Deluge" Philip Goldberg reviews the wide ranging reactions and the hesitencies for addressing the "Why, God, why?" question. Ultimately, he states that it's OK to be honest and bold in your relationship with the Sacred, however you may conceive of it. We may not be privy to the Divine Plan. We may never even know if there is one, or if there is a cosmic purpose for human suffering. But there is value in asking anyway, and there is virtue in unleashing some holy rage at the seeming injustice of the universe. But then what? Once we're humbled and unburdened, what do we do? It seems that we have no choice but to roll up our sleeves and try to make the imperfect world a little more perfect. If there is a higher purpose in tragedies like Katrina, perhaps that's it.
