Why the Chinese Don't Get Sick Like We Do

Why the Chinese Don't Get Sick Like We Do

---

Dear Reader:
Do you know that Chinese men and women often escape dreaded diseases that kill over 1.2 million Americans a year?
What do they know that you don't know?
4,000 years of traditional medicine and modern science now prove that many diseases Western medicine fails to treat could be cured by Chinese healing secrets.
For example...
Heart disease is the #1 killer in America, claiming 700,000-plus lives a year.
Yet, over a three-year period in China, not a single person under the age 64 died of heart disease -- out of 470,000 men and women living in two counties.
Here's another one:
Cancer is the #2 killer in America, taking over 550,000 lives a year.
Yet, according to The China Study, rural Chinese women have five times less risk of dying from breast cancer than their American counterparts.
Why is it, when it comes to sickness and disease, that the Chinese in many cases have less risk and a greater propensity for healing than Americans?
Millions and millions of Chinese men and women understand, live by and believe in the powerful, yet safe healing remedies of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
As you'll see here, Traditional Chinese Medicine is far different than Western medicine.
And now, you can see for yourself how this 4,000-year-old miracle could help you relieve some of your worst pain and debilitating diseases without depending on prescription drugs.
Here are just some of the breakthrough cures and treatments that we've recently reported on in our newest monthly newsletter called Chineses Medicine Miracle

• The prized Chinese herbal combination that remedies fatigue. 86% success rate in clinical study.
• The Chinese call this herb "chai hu,” and it's used medicinally for liver and viral infections. Harvard Medical School's list of the conditions it treats includes angina, cancer, dementia, depression and diabetes.
• 82-year-old woman with stomach cancer could not receive surgery, as it was deemed too dangerous. But CT scans showed a major reduction in her tumor with this Chinese herb.
• Abnormal heart rhythm cured with little-known Chinese flowering herb.
• The simple breathing secret that can build super immunity. Clears blockages, energizes your whole body and improves blood flow.
• How arthritis patients found blessed relief with an ancient Chinese stretching cure. As reported by the "Journal of American Geriatrics Society."

This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the amazing power of Traditional Chinese Medicine. You See more of these cures in our next Post

Hand Air Dryers Spread Germs: Study

For years, many experts thought that using hand air dryers found in public toilets was more sanitary than using paper towels. But they actually spread germs, according to new research from the U.K.'s University of Leeds.

The researchers found that germ counts around high-powered "jet-air" and ordinary warm-air hand dryers were 27 times higher in comparison with the air around paper towel dispensers.

Air hand dryers scatter germs much like an aerosol can disperses its contents when sprayed, and the study found that both jet and warm air hand dryers spread bacteria into the air and onto users and those nearby.

To mimic hands that have been poorly washed, the researchers contaminated hands with a harmless type of bacteria called Lactobacillus, which is not normally found in public bathrooms.

Any Lactobacillus detected in the air proved that it must have come from the hands during drying. The experts collected air samples around the hand dryers and also at distances of one and two meters away.

Air bacterial counts close to jet air dryers were found to be 4.5 times higher than around warm air dryers and 27 times higher compared with the air when using paper towels.

Bacteria persisted in the air next to the dryers well beyond the 15 second hand-drying time, with approximately half (48 percent) of the Lactobacilli collected more than five minutes after drying ended. Lactobacilli were still detected in the air 15 minutes after hand drying.

Team leader Professor Mark Wilcox said: "Next time you dry your hands in a public toilet using an electric hand dryer, you may be spreading bacteria without knowing it. You may also be splattered with bugs from other people's hands.

"These findings are important for understanding the ways in which bacteria spread, with the potential to transmit illness and disease."

Canned Food Can Raise Blood Pressure: Study

Eating food from cans lined with the chemical bisphenol A (BPA) could raise your blood pressure, a new study suggests.

BPA previously has been linked to a variety of ills, including heart problems, developmental problems in children and high blood pressure. The chemical is widely used in products ranging from plastic bottles and food containers to dental fillings and cash register receipts. In cans, BPA is used as a lining, the researchers said.

"We found that drinking two canned beverages increased systolic blood pressure by 5 mm Hg," said lead researcher Dr. Yun-Chul Hong, director of the Environmental Health Center at Seoul National University College of Medicine in Korea.

Putting that in perspective, he said a 20 mm Hg increase in systolic blood pressure doubles the risk for heart disease. The systolic blood pressure number is always the first of two numbers given in a blood pressure reading.

"Because these results confirm findings from other studies, doctors and patients, particularly those with high blood pressure or heart disease, should be aware of the possible risks from increased blood pressure when consuming canned foods or beverages," he said.

Previous research has shown that BPA in containers can leach into food and beverages.

Since BPA acts like the hormone estrogen, Hong thinks it raises blood pressure as it interacts with cells in the heart and blood vessels that are sensitive to estrogen.

For the study, Hong's team had 60 men and women, aged 60 and up, drink soy milk from either cans or glass bottles on three occasions. The researchers assessed participants' blood pressure and heart rate two hours after drinking the soy milk and also tested their urine for BPA.

Urine tests showed a 1,600 percent increase in BPA among those who drank from cans, compared with those who drank from glass bottles. Soy milk was chosen for the test because it has no known ingredient that elevates blood pressure, the researchers said.

The report was published online Dec. 8 in the journal Hypertension.

Steven Hentges, from the Polycarbonate/BPA Global Group at the American Chemistry Council, disputed the study's conclusions.

"This study's claim that BPA ... 'may pose a substantial health risk' is a gross overstatement of the findings, an incredible disservice to public health, and runs contrary to years of research by government scientists," Hentges said in a news release.

Research on the safety of BPA around the world has shown that it is safe, Hentges said.

"For example, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration responded last year to the question, 'Is BPA safe?' with one unambiguous word: 'Yes,' " he said.

Steven Gilbert, director and founder of the U.S. Institute of Neurotoxicology and Neurological Disorders, disagreed.

"They should get BPA out of can linings," he said. "We need to find safer alternatives."

Gilbert said he was especially concerned with children's exposure to BPA, because it can affect physical and mental development. For example, BPA has been linked to a condition called gynecomastia (male breast growth), he said.

BPA has also been associated with behavioral problems, obesity and type 2 diabetes, Gilbert said. Other studies have linked the chemical to breast and prostate cancer, and heart and kidney disease, he added.

Although the blood pressure increase observed in this study was small, it is possible it was due to BPA, he said. "It would be nice if they showed a more robust change in blood pressure," he said.

The best way to limit BPA consumption is to eat fresh or frozen foods and look for BPA-free water bottles, Gilbert said.
