Breastfeeding better than vaccines at preventing infection

(NaturalNews) Researchers in Greece are urging mothers to exclusively breastfeed their babies for at least the first six months of their lives, based on new research findings. According to the study, babies who are exclusively breastfed for the first six months experience fewer infections than those who are either breastfed for a shorter period of time, or fed formula in addition to breast milk. Professor Emmanouil Galanakis and his colleagues tracked nearly 1,000 infants for a year, keeping track of their health. They then evaluated how the children were fed throughout their early months of development, and compared the results. They found that fully breastfed kids had significantly fewer infections than the other children. “Mothers should be advised by health professionals that, in addition to all the other benefits, exclusive breastfeeding helps prevent infections in babies and lessens the frequency and severity of infectious episodes,” said researchers. Mothers’ breastmilk contains vital antibodies, nutrients, vitamins and immunological factors that babies need to develop natural immunity to disease. In other words, breastfeeding is the optimal and natural way to instill immunity in children, eliminating the need for chemical-laden vaccines that often cause more harm than good. The research also serves as another wake-up call to mothers everywhere about the importance of breastfeeding, not only for their children’s health but also for their own. “We know that breastfeeding is the default method of infant feeding for babies; good for mothers and good for…health,” Janet Fyle from the Royal College of Midwives in the U.K. is quoted as saying in a recent BBC article. “This is why we need to continue our efforts to ensure that we maintain a high rate of breastfeeding.” Sources for this story include: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-11417490
Age related hearing loss halted with folate nutrient

(NaturalNews) Hearing loss is the most common sensory disorder in the United States, and more than 36 million Americans have lost some of their hearing. Mostly, hearing loss is blamed on getting older. But evidence is accumulating that the real culprit could be a lack of B vitamins — especially folate. For example, in 2007 scientists from Wageningen University in the Netherlands studied 728 men and women between the ages of 50 and 70 and found that by taking folic acid supplements, age-related hearing loss in the low frequency range was significantly delayed. Then, at last year’s American Academy of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery Foundation (AAO-HNSF) Annual Meeting in San Diego, a Boston-based research team discussed evidence showing that when men over the age of 60 had a high folate intake from foods and/or vitamins, they decreased their risk of losing their hearing by 20%. Now a new study, dubbed the Blue Mountains Hearing Study and headed by scientists at the University of Sydney in Australia, has revealed yet another important link between folate and hearing. The researchers found that when people have low levels of the B vitamin in their blood, they have a significantly increased risk of hearing loss. The research was recently published in The Journal of Nutrition . The study, which involved researchers from several Australian universities, looked at 2,956 people age 50 and up. Blood levels of vitamin B-12, folate and homocysteine were measured and then compared to the amount of hearing loss in the research subjects. The results? People with low levels of folate (below 11 nanomoles per liter) had a 34% increased risk of hearing loss. What’s more, elevated levels of the amino acid homocysteine (over 20 micromoles per liter) were linked to a 64% increase in the risk of hearing loss. Excess levels of homocysteine have previously been associated with an increased risk of heart disease and memory problems. Too much homocysteine is also believed to disrupt normal blood flow to the inner ear — which could possibly explain the homocysteine and hearing loss connection. And a body of earlier research has concluded adequate B vitamin levels are associated with normal homocysteine levels in the blood. NaturalNews has previously reported on other ways folate is important to maintaining and protecting health. For example, studies show it may protect from breast cancer (http://www.naturalnews.com/027588_folate_brst_cancer.html) and help prevent memory loss, too (http://www.naturalnews.com/012163.html).

POM Wonderful under attack by FTC over truthful health claims
September 30, 2010 by Health Blogger
Filed under Organic Foods, Supplements
(NaturalNews) The FTC has never met a natural product it didn’t want to destroy, it seems. They’ve gone after all sorts of natural foods like cherries , threatening to put companies out of business if they told the truth about the nutritional benefits of their products. They’ve even tried to criminalize a ministry that seeks to help its followers heal through the natural power of medicine herbs (http://www.naturalnews.com/026970_health_the_FTC_freedom.html). The FTC also went after Dr. Weil, threatening his company for telling the truth about his immune-boosting supplements (http://www.naturalnews.com/027303_natural_the_FTC_WHO.html). Dr. Weil’s company, by the way, quickly “complied” and removed the truthful nutritional knowledge from its website to avoid being prosecuted. Earlier this year, the FTC was defeated in court over its attempt to censor truthful health claims about selenium (http://www.naturalnews.com/028929_FDA_health_claims.html), but that was a rare victory against FTC tyranny. Usually the agency gets away with outrageous oppression and censorship, frightening companies into silence by threatening their founders with the threat of prison time and huge fines if they don’t comply. Now the FTC is going after the POM Wonderful company, claiming that the company’s descriptions of the health benefits of pomegranate juice are false. It is the FTC, however, that’s actually engaged in making false and misleading statements. Why pomegranate juice is so good for you Pomegranate juice is medicinal. Just here on NaturalNews.com, we’ve reported on how pomegranates can help with: • Digestion (http://www.naturalnews.com/029635_digestive_health_Canida.html) • Breast cancer (http://www.naturalnews.com/028830_brst_cancer_pomegranates.html) • Prostate health (http://www.naturalnews.com/027435_cancer_Prostate_pomegranate.html) • Inflammation (http://www.naturalnews.com/027411_pomegranate_inflammation_research.html) • Sperm quality and motility (http://www.naturalnews.com/025359_sperm_pomegranate_juice.html) • Antioxidants (http://www.naturalnews.com/024623_antioxidant_pomegranate_juice.html) • Appetite suppressant (http://www.naturalnews.com/021716_pomegranate_leaf.html) • Heart disease (http://www.naturalnews.com/020810_pomegranate_juice.html) • Diabetes (http://www.naturalnews.com/020754_pomegranate_juice_diabetics.html) • Alzheimer’s disease (http://www.naturalnews.com/020631_pomegranate_juice.html) … and that’s only what we’ve covered! The scientific literally is chock full of thousands of reference to the health benefits of pomegranates. The FTC, though, doesn’t read the scientific literature (or doesn’t care what’s in it). To the FTC, it doesn’t matter if what you say is true. All that matters is whether you’re making health claims at all. And if you are making health claims — even if they’re 100% scientifically true and verifiable — you might be targeted for termination by either the FTC or the FDA. FTC brands POM Wonderful owners criminals The FTC now says the founders of POM Wonderful are “criminals” and accuses them of “false and unsubstantiated claims” in the marketing of their pomegranate juice. What claims, exactly, did POM Wonderful make? That pomegranate juice may help with heart disease, prostate cancer and other health problems — statements that are scientifically true and valid . But the truth has no place at the FTC, where politics determines their choice of the next victim in the nutritional products industry. Why doesn’t the FTC go after makers of infant formula who make their products with over 50 percent sugar? (http://www.naturalnews.com/029863_Similac_infant_formula.html) Why doesn’t the FTC go after makers of “Slim-Fast” who position their sugared-up product as a weight loss food and market it to gullible consumers? Or how about Coca-Cola’s deceptive marketing of Vitaminwater? (http://www.naturalnews.com/029425_vitaminwater_Coca-Cola.html) or all the other deceptively marketed chemical products, including pharmaceuticals and toxic personal care products? No, the FTC seems to reserve its wrath for natural products. Anything natural gets targeted while anything made with synthetic chemicals that make evil corporations rich gets utterly ignored, it seems. The FTC has made a habit of criminalizing the very people who are trying to improve the nutritional quality of our food supply while letting the real food criminals run rampant. In America, you can buy toxic infant food made with artificial food coloring chemicals, partially-hydrogenated oils and refined sugars. That’s completely okay with the FTC (and the FDA). But if you try to offer green tea, walnuts, cherries, pomegranates or any other natural food by informing consumers of the nutritional science behind your products, you are immediately branded a criminal and threatened with prison times, fines and the confiscation of all your products. The FTC / FDA extortion racket This is all part of a criminal extortion racket being operated by the FTC and FDA, where companies are targeted and then threatening with jail time if they don’t pay big bucks to “government inspectors” who bill them for thousands of dollars while showing up at their warehouses for “surprise inspections.” Read more about how this criminal extortion racket really works in my NaturalNews expose of all this: http://www.naturalnews.com/024567_the_FDA_products_companies.html Note that once companies are threatened by either the FTC or FDA, they are forced into signing a “consent decree,” which is a document that requires people to admit to committing crimes they never committed! If people refuse to sign it, they are hauled into a secret FTC court system that offers no trial by jury, no Constitutional protections and no due process whatsoever (http://www.naturalnews.com/025303_the_FTC_health_natural.html). That this is happening right now in America is a travesty of justice. This is the kind of thing you might expect with secret police in the old Soviet Union, perhaps, but not in America which is supposed to be “the land of the free.” It’s way past time we reeled in the tyrants at the FTC and FDA who are determined to destroy the natural products industry. Perhaps the POM Wonderful company will recognize the extreme threat these rogue agencies pose to its freedom of speech and initiate some industry-wide action to fight back. How you can help There are legislative efforts by some courageous lawmakers to legalize free speech in the supplements industry . I’ve reported on this here: http://www.naturalnews.com/029840_free_speech_nutritional_science.html You can help defend your access to healthy, natural products by supporting these legislative efforts. Read the article above and click on the links to take action! The Life Extension Foundation is also working hard on this issue (www.LEF.org) as well as the Alliance for Natural Health (http://www.anh-usa.org), the Natural Solutions Foundation (www.HealthFreedomUSA.org), Citizens for Health (www.Citizens.org) and attorneys like Jonathan Emord (http://www.naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=44797A9DC1A64D3A47AC864667B1C010) and James Turner (http://www.naturalnews.com/025303_the_FTC_health_natural.html). Inform and educate yourself about what’s really happening, because most Americans have no idea about this war against knowledge that’s taking place behind the scenes. This is literally a war to destroy knowledge and keep the People as nutritionally ignorant as possible. That’s why they specifically target any company that starts to educate people. Once you start linking to scientific studies that might teach people something, you get targeted for termination. It’s blatant, and it’s a campaign to destroy nutritional literacy in America. It’s a war being waged against our minds (and bodies) with our own tax dollars! It’s time to fight back against this campaign of knowledge destruction and insist that consumers should have the right to know how foods, beverages and supplements can help support their good health. Pomegranates, after all, are medicine from nature . By the way, if the POM Wonderful company wants to tell its side of the story without being censored, they’re welcome to contact us here at NaturalNews.com where we’re friends with the natural products industry (and dedicated supporters of health freedom).
