In 21 days you can just about get rid of any cancer

This American doctor said. . .
"In 21 days you can just about get rid of any cancer"
. . .and she proved it again and again!
Can you believe an American doctor actually said, "In 21 days you can just about get rid of any cancer"—and then proved it?
Well she did. My Cancer Defeated colleague Andrew Scholberg interviewed her. What's more, he talked to some of the patients whose lives she saved during the last 20 years.
I was so excited by Andy's findings I went to her clinic myself to take a look. We investigated her whole approach, and let me tell you. . .
There's absolutely no doubt her cancer breakthrough has helped one "terminal" patient after another get rid of cancer.
What's more, she did it with natural methods only—NO disfiguring surgery, NO burning radiation, and NO poisonous chemo. And here's what's really scandalous. . .

Big Train Players Report Next Week! College Round-Up

Big Train College Round-Up 5/24  
 
Long-time Big Train player Hugh Adams (BT '06-'12) - pictured above - came across a record while continuing to help Florida Atlantic reach this year's NCAA Tournament. In a win over Western Kentucky in the first round of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament, Adams set the conference record for career saves as he recorded his 29th. The one-inning save consisted of three straight outs (one strikeout) and was his 16th of the season.
 
George Mason concluded their season with a strong performance from their three Big Train players. Josh Leemhuis (BT '11) went 4 for 9 with a double while scoring a run and driving in two for the Patriots. Tucker Tobin (BT '11-'13) also chipped in with two double and a single over eight at bats whileBrandon Gum (BT '12) reached base three times in seven plate appearances.

On the west coast, San Diego State got great production out of a Big Train duo. On the mound, Ryan Doran (BT '12) pitched eight innings and gave up just two runs on five hits and three walks while fanning nine batters. At the plate, Tyler France (BT '13) reached base in more than half of his plate appearances. He singled five times, walked once, and was hit by a pitch three times over the course of 17 turns at the plate. He also scored three runs and drove one in.

Other notable hitting performances: Josh Spano (BT '13 / High Point) - 7/12, R, RBI, 2B... Michael Bass (BT '11-'12 / UNC-Wilmington) - 6/16, 3BB, HBP, 5R, 2RBI, 3B... Richie Johnson (BT '10 / San Jose St.) - 4/9, BB, 2R, 3RBI... Tim Yandel (BT '13 / Tulane) - 3/6, 2R, RBI, 2B... Tim Quiery (BT '11 / San Jose St.) - 3/10, 2BB, R, RBI.

Big Pharma Exposed: Available for 24 hours only

Cancer Defeated Publications
Cardiologist Cures Chronic Conditions...Without Drugs
Dear Reader,
For the next 24 hours, we're making a shocking exposé about how a top cardiologist challenged the medical establishment... and the pharmaceutical industry... available to you.
When Dr. Sinatra, M.D. a world-renowned cardiologist and nutritional expert, threw away his prescription pad and began curing his patients' chronic conditions without drugs, the medical establishment called him a quack (and worse).
But now, new scientific evidence has confirmed that Dr. Sinatra was right when he began healing his patient's chronic conditions with food... without resorting to high priced Bands-aids® like drugs, angioplasties and cardiac surgery.
When you watch this dramatic video presentation, you'll learn all about Dr. Sinatra's amazing "food prescriptions". But you'll also learn why you have to do more than just "eat more broccoli."
Because it's not just what you eat that matters... Dr. Sinatra shows you the specific food combinations that boost the nutritional value of foods and increase their healing power.
You'll learn about dozens of Dr. Sinatra's scientifically proven, medically tested food prescriptions, including how to...
... Reduce painful inflammation WITHOUT damaging your heart muscle or increasing your heart attack risk (like popular arthritis drugs do...)
... Stop cancer cells from spreading and shrink existing tumors without chemotherapy or radiation...
...All but eliminate the need for expensive diabetes medications and painful insulin injections... and much, much more.
Dr. Sinatra also exposes the so-called "health foods" that can make you sick!
Now for the first time, we go behind the scenes to uncover the true story behind Dr. Sinatra's groundbreaking food prescriptions that the medical establishment doesn't want you to see.
Watch it here and you can change your health forever.
Be well,
Marjory Abrams

Bowie State Places Three on CIAA Commissioner's All-Academic Team


HAMPTON, Va. - The Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association is pleased to recognize twenty student-athletes from its member institutions as the 2013 CIAA Commissioner's All-Academic Team. The group is comprised of student-athletes who have completed at least one academic year at a member intuition, made significant contributions to their respective sport and have achieved a grade-point-average of 3.2 or better.

“Athletics in the CIAA provides a unique opportunity for student-athletes to compete and receive a quality education. It is important to understand that there is a balance that is expected from DII student-athletes, i.e., to graduate while cultivating a variety of skills to prepare for life time experiences and opportunities,” said CIAA Commissioner Jacqie Carpenter.

The CIAA Female and Male Scholar-Athletes of the Year are Winston-Salem State's Ebone Evans and Khendra Reid.

Evans, a participant in WSSU's women's track & field program, garnered a 3.96 grade-point-average majoring in Biology. The junior hurdler from Durham, NC was a standout on the track for the Lady Rams and a model citizen off the track. She donated countless hours to local elementary schools for tutoring, science fairs and youth programming. The WSSU 2012 & 2013 Female Student-Athlete of the Year recipient has also received several other academic awards since her freshman year.

Reid, a Ram football defensive standout, earned male Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors with a 3.66 grade-point-average as a Computer Science major. A linebacker for the Division II National Runner-up, Reid was named Second Team All-CIAA earlier this academic year. The Pikeville, NC native has been a Chancellor's Full Scholarship Recipient from 2010-13 and a member of the CIAA All-Academic Team since 2010. He has been a staple in the area of church and elementary school community service.

“The CIAA All-Academic team represents student-athletes who demonstrate a commitment to achievement not only in athletics but academic excellence in the classroom,” Carpenter added. “It is an honor to recognize such a prestigious group of student-athletes in the CIAA who will serve as future leaders in their communities.”

The Scholar-Athletes of the Year are nominated by their respective institutions and voted upon by the CIAA Executive Committee. The All-Academic Team is voted upon by the CIAA Sports Information Directors Association.

Sunshine and skin cancer: the real story

Sunshine and skin cancer: the real story


    It turns out that a new type of nail polish may increase your risk of cancer. I'll give you the details in a minute, but because we're moving into summertime, let's first take a look at one of the other things we do to make ourselves look good: getting some sun. . .

Continued below. . .


Video of the Week:
"Shocking Confessions of a
Drug Company Insider"
    In this exposé, a top executive of a major pharmaceutical company spills the naked truth about the drugs you and your family take... which drugs heal, and which ones KILL... what doctors turn to when they don't know the cure... what they do when they themselves or their loved ones are stricken with disease or illness... what life-saving resource they insist should be in every home. Watch this must-see video now because your life -- or the life of your loved ones -- may depend on it.


    You hear a lot of warnings that too much sun may give you skin cancer. Other than smoking, this is one of the few cancer prevention ideas mainstream medicine gets excited about.

    It's too bad they don't use their resources and all those public service TV and radio commercials for something more worthwhile. The cancer danger from ultraviolet rays is pretty small.

    The best evidence I've seen indicates that sunshine may cause mild, practically harmless basal cell carcinomas. Almost nobody ever dies of this type of skin cancer, although it can blemish the skin. The deadly type of skin cancer is melanoma and, surprisingly, the evidence isn't conclusive on whether UV rays cause melanoma. In any case, very few people die of melanoma.

    Now, I'm not saying go out and get as tanned as you want. Too much UV exposure does age the skin and most likely causes the mild form of skin cancer. What's more, the damage from the tans and burns we get when we're young doesn't show up for decades. It's a case of "enjoy now, pay a terrible price later."

    So assuming you don't want dry, wrinkled skin and nasty little black lesions when you're an old coot like me, you should keep your sun exposure brief and moderate. Boosting your vitamin D levels is the only real health reason to take in UV rays, and a little bit of exposure (well short of what it takes to give a white person a tan) is plenty for that purpose.
But there's another danger here,
and it doesn't come from the sun. . .
    Conventional medicine's "cure" for too much sun may be worse than the disease. Some researchers are just as concerned about sunscreens as a potential carcinogen as they are about UV rays.

    I've been warning about this possibility for years. There have been few or no long-term studies on whether it's safe to slather sunscreen chemicals all over our bodies. But people think, "Surely the government checks out all these products." Right.

    I see young parents covering infants and toddlers with sunscreen from head to toe. It's scary.

    Now there's some evidence my hunch may be right. Cell toxicity studies conducted by researchers at Missouri University of Science and Technology suggest that a common sunscreen ingredient, zinc oxide, may be at the root of the problem.

    Dr. Yinfa Ma, Curators' Teaching Professor of chemistry, led research studies which found that exposing this ingredient to sunlight causes a chemical reaction that may release unstable molecules known as free radicals.

    According to the study published in the Journal of Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, as free radicals try to bond with other molecules, they cause cell damage that could increase the risk of skin cancer.

    Dr. Ma's team also theorized that the longer zinc oxide is exposed to sunlight, the greater damage it causes to human cells.

    If this study is accurate, then using sunscreen to protect your body from UV rays couldspeed up the formation of cancer-causing free radicals.

    But the study authors caution against jumping to conclusions. Dr. Ma noted that this study was just a beginning and additional research is needed.

    No doubt that's true, but I haven't used sunscreen for years (I don't like the stuff anyway). I recommend avoiding it and taking the following steps instead:
  • Cover your skin with light clothing (but not too light; the rays can penetrate extremely sheer material)
  • Seek shady spots when you're outdoors
  • Get your exposure at times of day when the sun is not so intense (morning and evening); during the summer, 10 AM to 2 PM is generally the time when the sun is most intense and you can fry really fast
  • Eat plenty of antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables to help fight free radicals
  • Apply skin care products enriched with green tea, vitamin C or other antioxidants to the outside of your skin. I've read that a mixture of vitamin C in water, applied to the skin, is a good sunscreen. I haven't tried it.
    These solutions may sound simple and "un-medical" — they don't come out of pharmacy. But sometimes the most effective solutions don't have to be complicated at all!
Now, about that cancer-causing nail polish. . .
    At the 2012 Democratic National Convention, the First Lady sparked a fashion craze by wearing a unique shade of blue-gray gel nail polish.

    Nail salons nationwide reported an uptick in clients searching for this long-lasting, chip resistant polish.

    Because gel nail colors require a UV light source to dry and seal the color, they're mainly applied by the pros. But some manufacturers have created home kits that include a mini UV lamp to help you achieve the same look at home.

    Many women love these gel colors because some can last as long as three weeks! But that kind of durability makes it harder to remove the polish too.

    You have to soak your nails in acetone for10 to 15 minutes to remove the polish. That sounds like a bad idea to me, right off the bat. The acetone can dry your nails… irritate the skin near your nails… and even escalate to form rashes or blisters on your skin!

    An American Academy of Dermatology press statement cites one study in which dermatologists examined five women who complained of weak, brittle and thinning nails that they suspected were caused by gel manicures.

    The dermatologists agreed that their problems were likely a result of the gel manicures.

    What's more, one of the women underwent two additional tests to measure the nail plate before and after one gel manicure. These tests confirmed that nail plate thinning occurred.
So what's the cancer connection?
    Gel nail polish may pose a cancer threat on two levels…

    First of all, some of these polishes contain the chemical preservative butylated hydroxyanisol (BHA), which the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have found to be a consistent cause of tumors in laboratory animals.

    Likewise, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies BHA as a possible human carcinogen.

    Scientists are not sure how much exposure you would need for cancer to develop, but it's wise to be cautious.

    Not all gel polishes contain this chemical, so be sure to check the ingredient list on any bottle you plan to use.

    The second potential cancer threat from gel manicures has to do with the application process. Remember that gel polish applications require a UV lamp to set. Does this UV exposure pose a cancer danger? At least one conventional expert thinks so. . .

    Dr. Susan Taylor, dermatologist and clinical researcher, said that exposure to this UV light for just four to eight minutes every two weeks can wind up being a significant level of exposure.

    I'm skeptical that the UV angle of this nail polish is much of a problem. Are women going to get melanoma lesions on their fingertips from a brief UV exposure? I suspect not. But, as I said before, it ages the skin and may also cause less deadly types of skin cancer. And who needs that?

    Dr. Taylor has three recommendations for people who prefer gel manicures to traditional nail polish:
  • Apply an SPF 30 or higher sunscreen directly to your hands and fingers after you wash them midway through the manicure. (Obviously, I don't agree with her on this.)
  • Cut the tips off a pair of cotton gloves and wear these while applying polish and during the time your fingers are under the UV light. This isn't a bad idea.
  • Find a manicurist that uses LED (light emitting diode) light to set the gel polish.
Like many beauty treatments (hair dyes, for example — see Issue #272) this one sounds like more risk than it's worth. Your move. . .
