Parasites that enter the colon through our food or water can then migrate to the various organs of the body and into the blood. Getting rid of parasites isn’t a simple matter. It takes about three months because of the parasites’ reproductive cycle.

Experts warn against long-term use of common pain pills

The geriatrics society’s new guidelines say NSAIDs should be considered “rarely” in the population of frail elderly people, and used “with extreme caution” and then only in “highly selected individuals.” For those patients with moderate to severe pain that diminishes the quality of life, opiates may be considered, the guidelines suggest, after both the patient and caregiver are screened for prior substance abuse.

clipped from newoldage.blogs.nytimes.com Last week, an expert panel of American Geriatrics Society pretty much bumped all non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs, off the list of medicines recommended for adults ages 75 and older with chronic, persistent pain. Long-term use of drugs like ibuprofen, naproxen and high-dose aspirin is so dangerous, the panelists said, that elderly people who can’t get relief from alternatives like acetaminophen may be better off taking opiates, like codeine or even morphine. The risks from chronic use of NSAIDs are myriad. They can cause life-threatening ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding, a side effect that occurs more frequently and with greater severity as people age. Some NSAIDs may increase the risk for heart attacks or strokes, and they don’t interact well with drugs used to treat heart failure. They can make high blood pressure worse, even uncontrollable, and impair kidney function. And the list of potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs is a long one, experts say.

Researchers Discover Common Antibiotic Can Cure Genetic Diseases

reading the RNA, resulting in an incomplete and non-functional protein being created

Since releasing the news of the new compound, called NB54, based on the common antibiotic gentamicin, Baasov has been flooded with queries from investigators all over the globe excited to test it, he tells ISRAEL21c. The findings were published online in March in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry

Gentamicin is from a group of antibiotics known as aminoglycosides, which are used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It is commonly used to treat enlarged prostate glands, chest infections, urinary tract infections and infected wounds or burns. Previous studies find gentamicin can work to counteract genetic diseases when mutations cause disruptions of the development processes of proteins

Compound working in cystic fibrosis

The drug enables ribosomes, which carry out protein synthesis, to ignore these genetic disruptions and generate healthy, full-length functional proteins in

Israeli research finds common antibiotic can repair genetic diseases Antibiotics are no doubt the wonder drug of the 20th century. Before them, people could die from simple bacterial infections. Now, new groundbreaking research from Israel shows that a common antibiotic has the power to repair genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis, cancer and muscular dystrophy. The Israeli team headed by Prof. Timor Baasov of the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, has modified a common antibiotic, one without toxic effects, and which is programmed to fix "nonsense" mutations in genetic diseases. Nonsense mutations are mutations in a sequence of DNA which causes it to prematurely stop

Splenda causes weight gain, impairs digestion, and affects chemotherapy & other drugs

As of 2006, only six human trials have been published on Splenda. Of these six trials, only two of the trials were completed and published before the FDA approved sucralose for human consumption, and the two published trials had a grand total of 36 total human subjects.

36 people sure doesn’t sound like many, but wait, it gets worse: only 23 total were actually given sucralose for testing, and here is the real kicker — The longest trial at this time had lasted only four days, and looked at sucralose in relation to tooth decay, not human tolerance.

Even more shocking, the absorption of Splenda into the human body was studied on a grand total of six men! Based on that one human study, the FDA allowed the findings to be generalized as being representative of the entire human population. Including women, children, the elderly, and those with any chronic illness — none of whom were ever examined.

clipped from www.impactlab.com In animals examined for the study, Splenda reduced the amount of good bacteria in the intestines by 50 percent, increased the pH level in the intestines, contributed to increases in body weight and affected P-glycoprotein (P-gp) levels in such a way that crucial health-related drugs could be rejected. The P-gp effect could result in medications used in chemotherapy, AIDS treatment and treatments for heart conditions being shunted back into the intestines, rather than being absorbed by the body. It’s very important to realize that Splenda (sucralose) is actually NOT sugar, despite its marketing slogan “Made from sugar, so it tastes like sugar”. Rather it’s a chlorinated artificial sweetener in line with aspartame and saccharin, and with detrimental health effects to match. They also found unmistakable evidence that Splenda is absorbed by fat, contrary to previous claims. published in the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health Splenda Has NEVER Been Proven Safe for Human Consumption
