Several studies have focused on mistletoe and its potential, positive effect on cancer. Though research is inconclusive, many of the studies show that mistletoe’s anti-cancer properties work to kill various cancer cells. Further, the Christmas decor could be an alternative to toxic chemotherapy.

 

One study focuses on mistletoe and pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer is one of the most deadly forms of cancer, with a mortality rate of around 80% during the first years after diagnosis. It strikes 44,000 Americans each and every year and conventional treatments haven’t been able to do much to prolong their lives. This latest research, however, indicates it could offer assistance to those diagnosed with a deadly disease.

These drugs, known as SSRIs (or serotonin reuptake inhibitors), are some of the most popular prescriptions in the U.S. and they come with a host of horrific side effects. Potentially causing autism in children is only one reason why you should think twice before taking them.

marijuana cannabis 263x164 Risky Healing: Making Your Own Medicinal Cannabis/Hemp Oil

The US government labels cannabis a ‘schedule one narcotic’ along with heroin and LSD; they also say it has no medicinal value. This is quite laughable considering the government itself holds US patents on cannabis constituents (namely marinol synthesized from THC), showing how it plans to capitalize on the plant’s known healing qualities just like pharmaceutical companies. In fact, one patent filed in February of 2001, #6630507, is entitled “Cannabinoids as Antioxidands & Neuroprotectants.” Sounds pretty ‘medicinal’ to me. More than 77% of American agree.

Natural killer cells are white blood cells (lymphocytes) that seek out and kill cancerous or otherwise mutating cells that can harm the body. Also known as NK cells or just K cells, these natural killer cells are a natural part of our immune systems. Considering that 1/3 of the population is expected to get cancer in their lifetime, it would behoove us to boost our body’s natural ability to reduce cancerous tumors and virally infected cells.

The times they are a-changin’ is a tune many of you will be familiar with, and this is indeed exactly what is going on now. You might not be fully able to literally tune into the full extent of what we are referring to at the moment, but as with everything, it will become clearer for you as you manage to fully embrace all of your inherent faculties. So again we say, this is in all aspects very much an inner journey, one that needs to be taken in solitude, but also one that needs to be shared in a way that will enable both yourself and others to better see the path ahead.

 

For this is in many ways the underlying reason for all of this ceaseless stream of information we deliver. It is not only to give you a heads up as it were on what is going on on all the levels you may feel disconnected from at the moment, but it is also to remind you that so much of this is indeed going on within yourself. For YOU are the virgin territory we have discussed earlier, and there is no one but yourself who can explore that to the fullest. And that is why we are here, to encourage you to do so. For that is the only way to find that future you so crave, as it is not hidden anywhere else than within.

Packing a potentially deadly ice threat that could stretch 1,000 miles from Texas to Ohio, Winter Storm Cleon geared up Thursday to provide another shot of dangerous weather to the Plains and Midwest. "For those who use electric heat, they could be without power for several days, especially in places that are difficult to reach," said Tom Niziol, winter weather expert for The Weather Channel. "This will mean the potential for water pipes freezing and more importantly endangers people who will not be able to stay warm. Plan and prepare to hunker down." Bitterly cold temperatures prompted safety warnings for residents in the Rockies and threatened crops as far south and west as California.

US energy giant Chevron has resumed its search for shale gas in north-eastern Romania after hundreds of riot police reportedly brutally removed a bunch of villagers who had been camping out at the site protesting the company’s plan. Back in October, Chevron suspended its plans to drill an exploration well for shale gas in the village of Pungesti – which is believed to be sitting on vast reserves of the valuable natural resource. To prevent Chevron from moving on with the drilling, Pungesti villagers set up a camp in a privately-owned field next to the site where the well was planned to be installed.

 

For about six weeks the strategy seemed to work, but that changed Monday when Romanian riot police, gendarmes and firemen mobilized forces to break the protesters’ resistance. According to media reports, law enforcers descended on the area early in the morning. Using police and Chevron vehicles, they blocked the road linking the village with the city of Vaslui, and surrounded the protesters camp.
