Baby Foreskin Is Being Used To Make Vaccines
Conclusion
Vaccine companies have regularly used blood and body parts from killed cows, dogs, worms, mice, chickens, human babies, monkeys, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, rats, etc., to make these vaccines, so using foreskin from newborn babies may not surprise some. For many, it is appalling. [28]
Circumcisions fuel multi-billion dollar industries. If you see neonatal foreskin for sale, which is very easy to find on the internet, remember that these newborn children didn’t consent to being circumcised and they didn’t consent for their foreskin to be sold, used for research purposes, or to be injected into the people ...

Shame! Another front in the libertarian war on the FDA: Rational Vaccines and Peter Thiel ’ s unethical offshore herpes vaccine clinical trial
I've discussed so-called "right-to-try" laws, which promise to speed experimental drugs to terminally ill patients, but which in reality are about weakening and bypassing the FDA. Now über-Libertarian Peter Thiel is trying a new tactic to bypass the FDA by organizing an offshore clinical trial of a new herpes vaccine based on dubious science and not overseen by an IRB to protect patients. Both right-to-try and this trial are different fronts in the same fundamentalist free market war on FDA regulation. (Source: Respectful Insolence)

15 Self Development Lies (and some are whoppers!)
The self development industry is worth in the region of $10 billion per annum in the United States.
And that doesn’t include the fitness and weight loss industries, so primarily we’re looking at books, audios and seminars.
That is officially a shit load of books, audios and seminars being sold to Americans every year in the hope that they can improve the quality of their lives.
Some people will, but most won’t.
For the most part it’s down to the fact that most people don’t do anything with the information they acquire.
According to the expression, ‘knowledge is power’. But like some of the information...

Henrietta Lacks educational timeline
More and more classrooms are adding the Henrietta Lacks story to the curriculum. This infographic poster illustrates the historical timeline of Henrietta Lacks' immortal cells (HeLa cell line). Research using the HeLa cell line has resulted in drugs against influenza, leukemia, herpes, Parkinson's disease and more. The timeline can be used in the classroom by viewing it online, downloading it as a PDF, or printing it in large and small sizes. (Source: BHIC)

New Clinical Trials Try Unorthodox Ways to Target Alzheimer ’ s
Alzheimer’s disease affects an estimated 5 million individuals in the US and causes a devastating loss of cognitive function due to the buildup of beta-amyloid and tau proteins in the brain. Previous efforts to combat this disease have focused on developing drugs that target beta-amyloid, but such treatments have been unsuccessful in patients so far. Several exciting new approaches for treating Alzheimer’s are currently being tested in clinical trials in the US and Europe. These trials will assess the efficacy of an anti-viral drug that is normally used to treat herpes, and a new vaccine that generates antibodies again...

MKSAP: 36-year-old woman with facial pain
A 36-year-old woman is evaluated for a 1-week history of recurrent episodes of facial pain that are 1 to 3 seconds in duration and occur spontaneously dozens of times throughout the day. The pain is sharp, severe, and located in the right infraorbital area. During this same period, she has developed worsening bilateral lower extremity weakness and urinary incontinence. The patient has an 18-year history of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis treated with interferon beta-1a; she also takes baclofen to control spasticity. She has had no nausea, photophobia, phonophobia, nasal congestion, nasal drainage, or ocular/visual c...

Providers and patients must listen to the evidence
There is an interesting article from ProPublica called “When Evidence Says No, but Doctors say Yes” making the rounds. It’s about the number of doctors who disbelieve, don’t know or don’t care about medical evidence to the detriment of patients. I do not find any fault with the article. I rail against this daily. I have my whole professional life. It is actually a big reason why I blog because I regularly hear: “I didn’t know that,” from providers or “If I had only known,” from patients. I love when people tell me they took in something I wrote to show their provider. I love when a doctor tells ...

The viruses in your blood
If you have ever received a blood transfusion, along with the red blood cells, leukocytes, plasma and other components, you also were infused with a collection of viruses. A recent study of the blood virome of over 8,000 healthy individuals revealed 19 different DNA viruses in 42% of the subjects.
Viral DNA sequences were identified among the genome sequences of 8,240 individuals that were determined from blood. Of the 1 petabyte (1 million gigabytes) of sequence data that were generated, about 5% did not correspond to human DNA. Within this fraction, sequences of 94 different viruses were identified. Nineteen of the...

A Brief Tour of the Causes of Immunosenescence in the Adaptive Immune System
The open access paper I'll point out today covers some of the aspects of aging in the immune system, with a particular focus on the role of cytomegalovirus infection, and makes for interesting reading. The immune system is vital to health, not just in defending against pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi, but also because its agents work to destroy broken and harmful cells, such as those that have become cancerous, remove metabolic waste compounds where they accumulate outside cells, and help to regulate many necessary processes, from wound healing to the formation and destruction of synaptic structures in the b...
