A special group of vegetables called cruciferous vegetables have excellent cancer fighting properties. Research suggests that these cruciferous vegetables contain compounds that stimulate our bodies to break down potential carcinogens (substances that cause cancer). They work by preventing the transformation of normal healthy cells into cancerous cells.

Some examples of cruciferous vegetables are:

• Arugula
• Bok choy
• Broccoli
• Brussels sprouts
• Cabbage
• Cauliflower
• Chinese cabbage
• Collard greens
• Daikon
• Kale
• Kohlrabi
• Mustard greens
• Radishes
• Rutabaga
• Turnips
• Watercress

A study was done at the Metametrix Institute to test the efficiency of dried cruciferous powder in raising the 2/16 hydroxyestrogen ratio in premenopausal women.

What is the 2/16 hydroxyestrogen ratio?

The liver metabolizes estrogen into either 16-alpha-hydroxyestrone or 2-hydroxyestrogen with the former suggested to promote cancer development and the latter suggested to oppose cancer development; the ratio of these two estrogen derivatives is used as a biomarker for the risk of developing hormone-dependent cancers such as those of the uterus and breast. Dried cruciferous powder was found to promote the conversion of estrogen to 2-hydroxyestrogen, and decrease the amount of 16-alpha-hydroxyestrogen. This promotion of 2-hydroxyestrogen confers a decreased cancer risk.

What was found:

13 premenopausal women were tested by the Metametrix Institute before and after the addition of dietary supplements which contained powdered organic brussels sprouts and organic kale for 90 days. Lower 2/16 hydroxyestrogen ratios have been associated with increased risk for cancers of estrogen-sensitive tissues. 11 of the 13 subjects showed positive increases of their ratios, and the three subjects with the lowest initial ratios had an average increase of 500%. The results demonstrate that dehydrated whole brassicacae supplementation can significantly raise the 2/16 hydroxyestrogen ratio in premenopausal women.

So what can I do to reduce the risk of getting cancer?

Answer: Take Cruciferous Complete from Standard Process.

Each Cruciferous Complete capsule supplies 300 mg each of organically-grown, minimally-processed kale and brussels sprouts. By taking Cruciferous Complete every day you will be helping to raise the 2/16 hydroxyestrogen ratio and therefore decreasing the risk of getting cancer.

Aspartame was once listed by the Pentagon as a biochemical warfare agent.

It can be found in more than 5,000 foods, including soda pop, chewing gum, table-top sweeteners, diet and diabetic foods, breakfast cereals, jams, sweets, vitamins, and prescription and over-the-counter drugs.

The FDA denied approval for it for 8 years before political pressure got aspartame the green light.

Sold commercially under names like Nutrasweet and Canderal, it could be poisoning you.

Independent studies indicate aspartame can produce a range of disturbing adverse effects in humans, including headaches, memory loss, mood swings, seizures, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's-like symptoms, tumors and even death.

In America, more than 15 million people have abused prescription drugs — exceeding the combined number of people addicted to cocaine, hallucinogens, inhalants and heroin — making roughly 6% of the population.

Many using painkillers for a “high” believe them to be softer than street drugs and consider them less addictive. Prescription painkillers are powerful drugs that interfere with the nervous system’s transmission of the electrical signals we perceive as pain. Most painkillers also stimulate portions of the brain associated with pleasure.

This in addition to blocking pain, they produce a “high”. These are not soft drugs. Codiene, Oxycodone, OxyContin, Anexsia, Dicodid, Hycodan, Hycomine, Lorcet, Lortab, Norco, Tussionex, Vicodin, Endodan, Endocet, Percodan, Percocet, Roxiprin, Roxicet, and others have led to addiction and premature death.

Painkillers, such as Ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, VIOXX, etc. may be ruining your health.

These painkillers or Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID) have been found to cause the following;

• Cause stomach problems in 50% of users.
• Almost all long term users of the above painkillers will experience bleeding of the stomach.
• 8 to 20% of long term users will develop ulcers.
• About 3% will develop serious side effects, which will lead to 100,000 hospitalizations and an estimated 16,500 deaths.
• Painkillers also destroy chondroitin sulfate, a component of joints.

In 1959-1960, American Cancer Society volunteers gave questionnaires to over 1 million Americans and then determining six years later (in over 98%) whether the participants had survived.

50% more of those who said that they "often" took sleeping pills had died, compared to participants of the same age, sex, and reported health status who "never" took sleeping pills.

To re-examine these risks, in 1982, American Cancer Society volunteers gave health questionnaires to 1.1 million new participants. The survival of these people was ascertained in 1988.

In the new study, it was again found that people who said that they used sleeping pills had significantly higher mortality. Even when matched for age, sex, race, and education, and a total of 32 health risk factors, those who reported taking sleeping pills 30 or more times per month had 25% more mortality than those who said that they took no sleeping pills. We did not determine which particular sleeping pills were associated with this risk. The smaller risk of taking sleeping pills just a few times per month was 10-15% increased mortality, compared to those who took no sleeping pills. Sleeping pills appeared unsafe in any amount.
