Nattokinase was discovered in 1980, by Dr Hiroyuki Sumi, who was working at the Chicago University Medical School. He was testing 172 different foods for their ability to promote healthy circulation, and Nattokinase did the job better than any other substance he was testing.
Since then, additional research has been done on Nattokinase, including 17 published studies in Japan and here in the U.S. The results have been dramatic to say the least.
Low vitamin D levels may increase the risk of bacterial vaginosis, a common vaginal infection linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes, suggests a new study.
In a study with 469 women participating in a pregnancy cohort study, vitamin D levels below 20 nmol/L were associated with a 34 percent increase in the prevalence of bacterial vaginosis, compared to women with vitamin D levels over 80 nmol/L.
According to researchers led by Lisa Bodnar, from the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health, a potential protective effect of vitamin D may be due to the vitamin’s influence on the immune system.
The study adds to an ever growing body of science supporting the benefits of maintaining healthy vitamin D levels.

People who live in neighborhoods with fast-food restaurants like McDonalds and Burger King are far more likely to suffer strokes, researchers said on Thursday, Feb 19th, 2009.
Residents of one Texas country who lived in neighborhoods with the highest number of fast-food chain restaurants, had a 13% higher risk of experiencing a stroke, that those in neighborhoods with fewer restaurants.

Do you know what your Homocysteine level is? Has your doctor ever mentioned it? Probably not.
But it’s now recognized by leading, intelligent doctors and researchers as more deadly than high cholesterol.
Do yourself a giant favor and next time you’re in for a blood check, make them do a Homocysteine check too, it won’t take a second and could save your life.
When the levels of a substance called “Homocysteine” in your blood becomes too high, the perfect conditions are created for plaque buildup. This is what killed Tim Russett.
An amino acid, Homocysteine, promotes the growing of smooth muscle cells just below the inner wall of the artery. Multiplying rapidly, these cells create a deadly bulge that protrudes into the artery itself. On the bulge, cholesterol, blood products, and calcium begin to accumulate.
These are the blood traps that lead to problems like impotence, poor memory, heart attacks, strokes, and even death.
And research indicates that you should be just as concerned, if not more so, over your Homocysteine level as you are over your cholesterol levels.
Just when you think you know everything about the power of natural healing, along comes a new discovery that rewrites the history books.
That’s what you are about to read all about, courtesy of one of my patients who sent me a sample and the background to an extraordinary compound, unheard of in America until now, that has equally extraordinary power to dramatically dissolve clogged arteries, reduce painful inflammation and stop pain “cold in its tracks”.
And it’s not a drug. No prescription needed or dangerous side-effects to contend with. Mother Nature to the rescue, once again.

Think you’ve heard all there is to know about miraculous Vitamin D-3? I did.
And then someone sent me a full, in-depth report that really opened my eyes and made me, a passionate advocate for Vitamin D-3 for years, literally double my daily intake! So should you, or so WILL YOU, when you read this extraordinary report.
Ever since the misguided medical advice to avoid sunshine (which makes over 90% of our Vitamin D), health problems associated with low levels have skyrocketed.
Vitamin D is not only a vitamin, but also an important hormone, with deficiencies causing widespread problems.
In fact, Vitamin D deficiency in the United States alone:
Vitamin D treatment can also improve lung function and help people with asthma, while also decreasing the risk of heart disease, hypertension and stroke.
Because Vitamin D is stored in the fatty tissue (fat soluble) instead of being washed out in the urine (water soluble), it is possible to overdose if you get too much. This scares people away from getting the optimal dose, even though 10 times our current RDA (also known as “Ridiculously Low Allowance”) of 400IU’s a day is safe.
For those with decreased bone density, the dosage recommended is from 2000-4000 units a day. Otherwise, 1000-2000 units a day is optimal. Most importantly, remember to go for walks and get your sunshine.
Sunshine is good for you! For optimal health, avoid sunburn – but not your sunshine. Get 15 minutes of sunshine on your near-naked body at mid-day, when the sun is at its highest.
Vitamin D Deficiency is very common. Amazing as it may seem, with so many nutritional products being consumed these days, Vitamin D deficiency is rampant. This nutrient deficiency is critical, causing tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths each year in the United States alone. Because of this, and the deadly recommendation to avoid being out in the sun without sunscreen, Vitamin D deficiency is very real and getting worse.
Last month we kicked off an on-going series on the debilitating diseases that are destroying our way of life here in America. The first in this series was a two-part article on Alzheimer’s.
Hidden away in the concluding chapter was a nugget of pure gold, that could be the greatest discovery yet in fighting Alzheimer’s and most importantly, preventing it from happening. I decided to devote a full article to this extraordinary “nugget of gold” because it holds so much hope and promise for each and every one of us, particularly for those trying to cope with this terrible and tragic disease.
Oprah says,
“I’m switching to Green Tea.”
Green Tea may help boost metabolism to aid weight loss, block allergic response, slow the growth of tumors, protect bones, fight bad breath, improve skin, protect against Parkinson’s disease, and even delay the onset of diabetes.”
“It is 100 times more effective than Vitamin C and 25 times better than Vitamin E.”

The latest news from the pharmaceutical and food industries really takes the cake.
Diet Coke, Diet Pepsi, Diet 7-Up and Diet Dr Pepper actually put on weight rather than taking it off!
Those of you who read my November 7th article regarding the dangers of sugar consumption and sugar substitutes know that I have been screaming about the dangers of these insidious foods, marketed fraudulently as “diet” solutions, when in fact they are the reverse.
But there is something more dangerous lurking in these liquid poisons.

Why would anyone pump the flu virus into their body, and think it would prevent the flu? For years, I have advocated NO VACCINES of any kind, particularly flu shots and vaccinations for newborns.
Why don’t flu shots work? Why is autism now a major epidemic? Because vaccines destroy our immune systems.
The biggest and simplest thing to do to fight disease, particularly the flu is high level Ester-C Vitamin C. The latest breaking news says Vitamin C has the same effect on strokes! Good old Vitamin C.
