Major drug research company faked thousands of documents to get drugs approved, FDA says no big deal

(NaturalNews) It is truly astounding to witness the utter corruption that takes place -- and practically in plain sight -- within the pharmaceutical drug industry.

Drinking Coffee To Benefit Prostate Health -- Jon Barron Blog

(NaturalNews) Coca leaves have been chewed and consumed as tea for thousands of years in the high Andes. They are rich in many essential nutrients; they ease respiratory and digestive distress and are a natural stimulant and painkiller.

Disposable coffee cups, carryout containers filled with cancer-causing agents

The formaldehyde preservatives found in many disposable coffee cups and foam take-out containers, as well as styrene, another chemical additive used in such products, have both been added to the federal government's list of known or suspected carcinogens. The addition of these two chemicals, as well as six others, to the carcinogen list this year was reportedly a reluctant decision made by the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which has been pressured by the chemical industry for years to delay coming forward with this information. http://www.naturalnews.com/032732_styrofoam_chemicals.html

Flu breakthrough promises a vaccine to kill all strains | Society

Scientists at Oxford University have successfully tested a universal flu vaccine that could work against all known strains of the illness, taking a significant step in the fight against a disease that affects billions of people each year.
