Five Scientific Conclusions About Cannabis That The Mainstream Media Doesn’t Want You To Know

Five Scientific Conclusions About Cannabis That The Mainstream Media Doesn’t Want You To Know | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

While studies touting the purported dangers of cannabis are frequently pushed by the federal government and, therefore, all but assured mainstream media coverage, scientific conclusions rebutting pot propaganda or demonstrating potential positive aspects of the herb often tend to go unnoticed.

 

Here are five recent examples of scientific findings about pot that the mainstream media (and the Feds) don’t want you to know about.

After writing about fake vaccine science since 1988, I thought I’d seen it all:


Wild falsehoods about vaccines creating immunity; suppressed information about toxic ingredients in the shots; the absence of proper controlled studies proving vaccines are safe and effective.


But now Peter Doshi, PhD, writing in the online BMJ (British Medical Journal), reveals a new monstrosity. It’s all based on the revelation that most “flu” is not the flu...

GM Salmon Breed with Trout, Create Superfish: Study

GM Salmon Breed with Trout, Create Superfish: Study | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

Genetically modified salmon are more dangerous than anyone had realized. It’s now proven beyond doubt that they can interbreed with not only wild salmon, but also trout.

 

Worse, the result is offspring that grow even faster than their parents and can outcompete them by a huge amount.

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

The word Frankenfish takes on a whole new meaning with this revelation. 

Bad idea.

The genetic modification of plants, but especially of higher life forms, has serious drawbacks. Why should we allow it for motives of profit? Isn't nature more important than the bottom line of some corporation?

Arun Shrivastava's curator insight, June 16, 2:02 PM

This is extremely dangerous.

These Franckenfishes should be never approved but given FDA's track record, they may and that will ruin two species of fish-salmon and trout.

Vaccine Ingredients and Vaccine Secrets

Vaccine Ingredients and Vaccine Secrets | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

By: Sarah Cain - There has been much recent concern regarding vaccines given to children and the possible side effects. Particularly highlighted is the link between early childhood vaccines and autism.

 

What follows will be a list of known ingredients inside vaccines, and their documented side effects. It will aid you in making informed decisions, which is something the industry seems to be against.

 

The corporations involved have attempted to suppress this information for decades. Readers are advised that there are extra chemicals and toxins not mentioned, because we had to base this list upon ingredients that are already public knowledge.

 

It seems that the more we research this topic: the more sinister it becomes...

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

Most illnesses we vaccinate against can be cured - if you catch them - without too much trouble. Using vaccines to "prevent" those illnesses causes more trouble with health in the long run than the prevention is worth but ... it's business.

Malnutrition identified as root cause of 3.1 million deaths among children

Malnutrition identified as root cause of 3.1 million deaths among children | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

Malnutrition is the underlying cause of death for at least 3.1 million children, accounting for 45% of all deaths among children under the age of five and stunting growth among a further 165 million, according to a set of reports released ahead of a nutrition summit in London.

 

The shocking figures, published in the Lancet on Thursday, emerged as world leaders prepare to meet on Saturday to pledge extra money for nutrition, ahead of the G8 summit of industrialised countries on 17 June.

 

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

It looks like someone discovered that nutrition can be a major business opportunity, and a cause to rallly government and private funding. Look for moves by the multinationals into the nutrition area.

Europe rejects GMO crops; kinder gentler America seeks labeling | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

It’s a scandal.


Monsanto has just announced it’s giving up on most of Europe: people there don’t want GMO food. In America, the struggle is for labeling GMOs.


This is some kind of “fairness doctrine.” Let the US consumer decide what kind of food to buy. Choice. It’s the American way, right?


No, actually it isn’t. The evidence gathered over the last 10 years is staggering. GMO food and the herbicides sprayed on them constitute a major health hazard, to say the least.


And this doesn’t begin to cover the lying business practices of Monsanto...

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

Let's label GMOs is a distraction from the real issue. That stuff should never have been planted or grown in the first place. GMOs are damaging the health of animals (and humans) who eat them. They are damaging the environment and whole eco-systems of bugs and soil bacteria.

How Mercury Triggered the Age of Autism (video 9 min) documenting first autism cases

How Mercury Triggered the Age of Autism (video 9 min) documenting first autism cases | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

The evidence that vaccine mercury is behind the autism epidemic is inescapable... even in the first 11 cases 70 years ago, for God's sake!

 

The father of Case 2, a plant pathologist, was up to his elbows in the brand new stuff (mercury containing seed treatment) at the time his son was born in 1936. It's right there in his archive at North Carolina State (called Ceresan, and seen in the video still above).

 

And that's just for starters...

It is mind boggling how a poison is legally used in injectable vaccines, although its other uses (seed treatment and wood preservation) have been outlawed for over 40 years as "much too dangerous".

Please share this video with friends, relations, media, and local doctors. It is vital that each of one us spreads the information that vaccinations cause autism.

Saturated Fat Not Associated with Risk of Coronary Artery Disease, Coconut Oil and Dairy Fat are Healthy

Saturated Fat Not Associated with Risk of Coronary Artery Disease, Coconut Oil and Dairy Fat are Healthy | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

The lipid theory of heart disease, linking saturated fat to coronary heart disease, continues to crumble.

 

Of course there never was any real solid science linking traditional saturated fats and cholesterol to heart disease, but that didn’t stop the pharmaceutical companies from making billions of dollars from the sale of cholesterol-lowering drugs...

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

All the way up until the invention of margarine, saturated fats were a staple of our diet. That changed, when a propaganda campaign told us to lay off butter and lard and change over to "healthy" margarine. 

The campaign was so successful, it changed medicine and dietary recommendations. The result: Heart disease has become prevalent in the developed countries, and pharmaceutical corporations made a killing (in more ways than one) with the sale of proprietary "cholesterol lowering" drugs.

Research Proving Vitamin C’s Therapeutic Value in 200+ Diseases

Research Proving Vitamin C’s Therapeutic Value in 200+ Diseases | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

Vitamin C is generally considered to be an important “nutrient,” but its perceived value usually ends there. Only rarely does the public (and the medical profession) glimpse its true potential in the prevention and treatment of disease — and this because, by legal definition (in the US), only FDA-approved drugs can prevent, treat and cure disease.

 

This does not mean, however, that essential nutrients like Vitamin C cannot in fact prevent and treat disease, i.e. only because it is illegal to speak truthfully about something, doesn’t mean that that something isn’t true.

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

This isn't true only in the US. Medical laws all over the "civilized" world forbid promoting a food as medicine. 

Only the proprietary chemicals pharma produces are eligible to cure or prevent ... insane in view of the documented facts.

First drug to significantly improve heart failure mortality in over a decade

First drug to significantly improve heart failure mortality in over a decade | Health Supreme | Scoop.it
Coenzyme Q10 decreases all cause mortality by half, according to new results. It is the first drug to improve heart failure mortality in over a decade and should be added to standard treatment, according to experts.

 

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) occurs naturally in the body and is essential to survival. CoQ10 works as an electron carrier in the mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cells, to produce energy and is also a powerful antioxidant. It is the only antioxidant that humans synthesise in the body.

 

CoQ10 levels are decreased in the heart muscle of patients with heart failure, with the deficiency becoming more pronounced as heart failure severity worsens. Statins are used to treat many patients with heart failure because they block the synthesis of cholesterol, but these drugs also block the synthesis of CoQ10, which further decreases levels in the body.

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

This study should herald the end of statin drugs - meds which lower cholesterol and which have been a multi-year blockbuster dream of pharmaceutical medicine. 

 

Statins have an awful record of negative side effects and one of them happens to be that they block the human body's ability to synthesizie life-saving CoQ10...

Ban GMOs Now - an ISIS special report

Ban GMOs Now - an ISIS special report | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

The serious harm to health and the ecological and agronomical impacts of glyphosate and glyphosate tolerant crops are the most thoroughly researched, and for which there is little remaining doubt.

 

The same kind of evidence has now emerged for Bt crops and Bt toxins. Evidence that genetic modification per se is harmful is also convincing, and can be attributed to the uncontrollable process of genetic modification itself as well as the dangers from the horizontal transfer of the GM constructs, which can spread antibiotic resistance, create new pathogens and trigger ‘insertion carcinogenesis’, as well as taking over the body’s natural nucleic acid intercom to do harm. 

 

There is a compelling case for banning all environmental releases of GMOs now, and with that the glyphosate herbicides. Action can be taken locally in communities, villages, towns, municipalities, regions, as well as nationally and globally. It must be done now; for time is running out. We need to shift comprehensively to non-GM sustainable ecological farming in order to feed ourselves under climate change.

 

We the people need to reclaim our food and seed sovereignty from the corporate empire before they destroy our food and farming irreversibly.

Bill Gates’ Polio Vaccine Program Caused 47,500 Cases of Paralysis Death.

 

Monsanto previously used Bollywood actors and succeeded in selling India’s farmers Bt cotton seeds. Profits for Monsanto rose. When yields were less than promised, farmers incurred massive debt, leading many to suicide, in what is considered “the worst-ever recorded wave of suicides of this kind in human history.” To date, the number of suicides has surpassed 250,000.

 

“In 2011 there were an extra 47500 new cases of NPAFP [non-polio acute flaccid paralysis]. Clinically indistinguishable from polio paralysis but twice as deadly, the incidence of NPAFP was directly proportional to doses of oral polio received. Through this data was collected within the polio surveillance system, it was not investigated.”

 

The Oral Polio Vaccines were given to Indian children. The CDC had already dropped the OPV from its vaccine schedule in the US because it was causing polio.

But when doctors prescribe antibiotics, it is based on the belief that there are no long-term effects. We’ve seen evidence that suggests antibiotics may permanently change the beneficial bacteria that we’re carrying."

Did the Gene Revolution just fizzle out? The Great DNA Data Deficit: Are genes for disease a mirage?

Did the Gene Revolution just fizzle out? The Great DNA Data Deficit: Are genes for disease a mirage? | Health Supreme | Scoop.it
The notion that genes cause disease is a many decades old myth that literally billions of dollars have gone into disproving, but why is the global media still reporting on the topic as if it were true?

 

This dearth of disease-causing genes is without question a scientific discovery of tremendous significance. It is comparable in stature to the discovery of vaccination, of antibiotics, or of the nature of infectious diseases, because it tells us that most disease, most of the time, is essentially environmental in origin.

 

But such significance leaves a puzzle. Huge quantities of newspaper space has been devoted to genes, or even to hints of genes for various diseases. By rights then, reports of the GWA results should have filled the front pages of every world newspaper for a week. So, why has this coverage not occurred?

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

The much vaunted gene revolution that was to make medicine hugely more efficient because we could target "disease causing" genes has effectively just ended. Too many genes are involved with each common illness, and only very few of them are showing an effect that would be worthwhile knowing. 

 

Didease is caused by environmental factors (life style and nutrition are the most important) rather than by genetic predisposition.

Hemp Could Free Us From Oil, Prevent Deforestation, Cure Cancer and It’s Environmentally Friendly – So Why Is It Illegal?

Hemp Could Free Us From Oil, Prevent Deforestation, Cure Cancer and It’s Environmentally Friendly – So Why Is It Illegal? | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

Hemp is a tall, beautiful and gracious looking annual plant that can reach heights over twelve feet.

 

Although hemp (cannabis sativa) and marijuana (cannabis sativa var. indica) come from a similar species of plant, they are very different and confusion has been caused by deliberate misinformation with far reaching effects on socioeconomics as well as on environmental matters.

 

The reason hemp is illegal is not because of any negative impact to the environment or human health, but exactly the opposite. It is so environmentally friendly, nutritionally and medicinally beneficial, that it provides too many abundant resources which would make it impossible for powerful corporations to compete.

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

Hemp was outlawed in the 1920s/1930s in the USA, through heavy lobbying and propaganda campaigns sponsored by DuPont, maker of a competing product to the hemp fiber - polyester and nylon. Since then, through US domination of the United Nations, the insane policy, part of the failed "War on drugs", has spread all over the world...
