Do You Take K2 Too? It’s Vital for Artery and Bone Health!

 Do You Take K2 Too? It’s Vital for Artery and Bone Health!

(The Best Years in Life) Inadequate levels of vitamin K2 leads to hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis) and osteoporosis. There appears to be a direct relationship between excess calcium in the blood and inadequate calcium in the bones.

Even MD heart specialists are beginning to realize that arterial calcification from calcium that is not absorbed into the bones causes more heart and cardiovascular problems than cholesterol or other fats. The cholesterol myth is crumbling.

Meanwhile, calcium fortified foods and supplements are promoted and consumed to create excess calcium. This causes more heart health issues and even winds up weakening bone matter if magnesium and other minerals are deficient.  Read More.

Black Seed - 'The Remedy For Everything But Death'

 Black Seed - 'The Remedy For Everything But Death'

(The Best Years in Life) The seeds of the annual flowering plant, Nigella Sativa, have been prized for their healing properties since time immemorial. While frequently referred to among English-speaking cultures as Roman coriander, black sesame, black cumin, black caraway and onion seed, it is known today primarily as black seed, which is at the very least an accurate description of its physical appearance.

The earliest record of its cultivation and use come from ancient Egypt. Black seed oil, in fact, was found in Egyptian pharoah Tutankhamun's tomb, dating back to approximately 3,300 years ago.[i] In Arabic cultures, black cumin is so known as Habbatul barakah, meaning the "seed of blessing." It is also believed that the Islamic prophet Mohammed said of it that it is "a remedy for all diseases except death."  Read More.

You've heard of the wonders of colloidal silver, but how about colloidal gold?

Treat Ear Infections Without Antibiotics

 Treat Ear Infections Without Antibiotics

(The Best Years in LifeFew things are worse than the crying in the night signaling an ear infection. Misery, missed school and a trip to the doctor for antibiotics have been standard procedure for decades. But now that the damage to health from antibiotics is known, many parents are looking for another healing method.  Chiropractic offers a natural alternative to the medical establishment's "standard of care".

Why do we need an alternative to antibiotics? Probably the primary reason is that antibiotic use leads to resistant bacteria. Antibiotics are never able to kill all the bacteria involved in an infection, instead reducing them to a number that is hopefully manageable by the child's immune system. Bacteria evolve quickly, and random mutations may cause one or two of those that remain to have a gene that protects against antibiotic. The descendants of these mutated bacteria will have developed antibiotic resistance and will be resistant or even immune to that particular antibiotic drug.  Read More.

Huge Fines, Settlements and Lawsuits are all Just Part of Doing Business for Big Pharma

 Huge Fines, Settlements and Lawsuits are all Just Part of Doing Business for Big Pharma
by Tony Isaacs
 (The Best Years in Life) In 2012, five pharmaceutical companies agreed to pay nearly $5.5 billion to settle allegations of fraud, including promotion of medicines for uses not approved by the FDA. The settlements represent the continued trend of record-breaking fines, settlements and lawsuits which have become a routine part of doing business for Big Pharma.

Between 2004 and 2010, major drug companies paid out $7 billion in fines, penalties and lawsuits for fraudulently marketing their drugs, making misleading claims about the drugs safety and hiding or altering studies which indicated evidence of harm. The threat of massive payouts does not appear to offer much deterrent.



Even the largest of settlements rarely dents the profits associated with the drugs involved. The largest fine ever imposed thus far - last July's $3 billion judgment against GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) for illegally marketing the antidepressants Paxil and Wellbutrin, withholding health risks data of the diabetes medication Avandia and other wrongdoings - accounted for just 11 percent of associated revenue. By contrast, in most individual cases of fraud all profits are typically confiscated and the fraudster goes to prison.  Read More.

UK data finds prescription drugs 62,000 times more likely to kill than supplements

by Tony Isaacs

(The Best Years in Life) According to data released by the UK-based Alliance for Natural Health International (ANH-Intl), pharmaceutical drugs are 62,000 times more likely to kill you than supplements. In fact, the data collected by ANH-Intl demonstrates that food supplements are the safest substances regularly consumed by UK citizens even though they are the target of increasingly restrictive European legislation aimed at 'protecting consumers.'

The data found that pharmaceutical drugs were also 7,750 times more likely to result in death than herbal remedies. Both food supplements and herbal remedies were placed in the 'supersafe' category of individual risk - with a less than one in ten million risk of death. Read More.

Treat ADHD with Fish Oil

Treat ADHD with Fish Oil


(The Best Years in Life) Attention deficit disorder, also known as ADHD, is a recently conceived disease that now describes children who previously were referred to simply as problem kids. Children with ADHD are unable to concentrate for long periods of time on tasks that do not interest them, and they have great difficulty dealing with the demands of traditional schools that require them to sit in a desk for seven or more hours a day doing tasks that require books, paper and pencil.  Instead of creating a curriculum and environment that can meet the needs of all children, schools have joined with the pharmaceutical industry to medicate children who are unable to conform to this mind numbing experience.  Read More

Natural Cures for Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome

Natural Cures for Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome


(The Best Years in Life) You want to take advantage of the long summer days – enjoy the barbecues, fireworks, road trips, and everything that summertime offers – but it seems that the more fun stuff you do, the more you want to crawl into bed. Some people simply cannot handle the normal stimuli that others around them process just fine. The loud noises, the crowds, the increased conversations and activities can exhaust people with adrenal fatigue syndrome.

The brain constantly reacts to information and signals, working with the adrenal glands and other parts of the body to make sense of everything. Some people's adrenals are overloaded from processing information. Exhausted adrenals not only mean you are tired often and easily overwhelmed, by they also open the door to serious health concerns, such as type 2 diabetes, hypothyroidism, and heart problems. Thankfully, there are natural ways to manage the condition before it worsens.

Pineapple is the Delicious End to Cancer

Pineapple is the Delicious End to Cancer


(The Best Years in Life) Imagine sunshine, tropical breezes and relaxation. If you put a fruit in that picture, it's probably pineapple, the sweet juicy gift from the tropics.

Common Sense Revisited - America at a New Crossroads

Common Sense Revisited - America at a New Crossroads

by Tony Isaacs

Over two centuries ago, what would become our fledgling nation stood at a crossroads - poised to either submit to continued tyranny by an oppressive and unresponsive government or else bravely rise up and DE CLARE their freedom and refusal to continue to live under the thumbs of such a government. Today, a growing number of people believe we have arrived at a similar juncture and that the past provides an example for the future:

Even as the war against the tyranny of King George was being waged by the army of George Washington in Boston, in January 1776 two thirds of the representatives from the 13 American colonies were in favor of making peace and any declaration of Independence seemed unlikely.  Read More

Why We are Living Longer and Yet Ever Sicker Lives

(The Best Years in Life) Mainstream medicine advocates and apologists are quick to tout how much average life expectancy has increased over the past several decades and quick to give mainstream medicine much of the credit.

Here is the simple answer:  Read More.
