Too much estrogen linked to cancer and weight gain

by Critical Health News

Estrogen can be dangerous stuff. Sure, it’s an important hormone, responsible for the development of the fetus in the womb, the growth of connective tissue and the development of female sexual characteristics. Though it’s the most ancient of all of our hormones (it’s been around for 450 million years), it’s also associated with a wide range of health problems including fibroids, weight gain and cancers. It is pro-inflammatory, initiates the production of stress chemicals, and it’s linked to various particularly dangerous cancers including breast, uterine, colon and prostate cancer.

Even worse, there are certain chemicals, natural and synthetic, that, while not exactly estrogen, can act like it, throwing off the delicate balance of the body’s endogenous hormones. These so called ‘estrogen mimics’ or non-biological estrogen-like substances called xeno-estrogens (xeno meaning “foreign”) include birth control pills, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), as well as fertilizers and pesticides, all of which all have estrogen or estrogen-like activity. The levels of these xeno-estrogens have increased dramatically in our environment over the last 60 or 70 years.

One of the most significant causes of xeno-estrogen exposure occurs through foods. Over the past 60 or so years, the FDA has approved xeno-estrogenic substances for use in livestock. As a growth substance, estrogen is used to fatten farm animals. It increases the animals’ growth rate and the efficiency by which they convert the feed they eat into meat.

Traditionally, this has typically been a problem associated with livestock such as cattle and poultry. Recently, however, a new source of food xeno-estrogens has entered the marketplace: farmed fish. These fish are not only exposed to the hormone via toxic water, which has been saturated with the potent biochemical from agricultural runoff, but they have also been intentionally dosed with the hormone. For years, this chemical manipulation was restricted to countries in Asia known for their lax regulations. However, in the past few years even European and Scandinavian countries have become participants in the chemical control of aquaculture.

One of the main reasons for this hormonal manipulation is deliberate gender reversal; scientists are intentionally turning male fish into females by dosing them with estrogens. This practice which scientists call “Controlled Reproductive Biotechnology”, is a common practice because, in certain species, one gender or another tends to be larger. According to foodforbreastcancer.com , tilapia and halibut are especially subject to this kind of hormonal treatment.

Animal waste is also a significant source of xeno-estrogens. Animal waste may contribute an estimated 90 percent of total estrogens in the environment. Five gallons of runoff water contaminated with chicken manure may contain a birth control pill’s worth of estrogen.

Estrogen levels in poultry litter are so high that, when farmers feed chicken manure to their animals to save on feed costs, it may trigger premature development. Poultry manure has among the highest hormone content, quadruple the total estrogens, and nine times more 17-beta estradiol, the most potent estrogen and a “complete” carcinogen, as it exerts both tumor initiating and tumor promoting effects.

If you’re concerned about exposure to xeno-estrogens here are 5 ways to reduce toxicity:
5 ways to prevent xeno-estrogen toxicity
Use bentonite clay – 1 or 2 teaspoonsful in water. Bentonite clay has a large surface area for mopping up xeno-estrogens, and lots of others toxins as well.
Probiotics can help – Estrogen is metabolized, broken down and eliminated through the bowels. Probiotics and good bacteria are critical for facilitating this detoxification process.
Use Vitamins A and E – both nutrients may have estrogen balancing effects.
Don’t forget selenium – the most important estrogen balancing mineral.

Progesterone and Pregnenolone- the quintessential estrogen balancing hormones. Progesterone is best used in a cream. Pregnenolone is readily available in health food stores or on the internet.

Disturbing study reveals connection between brain damage and hepatitis B vaccine

by Vicki Batts

The hepatitis B vaccine is routinely administered to newborns, often just a few short hours after birth. It’s a highly controversial practice; for many parents, the idea of vaccinating a delicate, newborn baby has been a hard pill to swallow. Now, new research confirms there is a link between the hepatitis B vaccine and brain damage.

While vaccine propagandists continue to claim that vaccines are “100 percent safe,” the science clearly shows otherwise. There is a mountain of evidence which demonstrates vaccines can, and do, cause harm to their recipients — and it is growing taller by the day.

The pharmaceutical industry and their puppets attack anyone who refuses to abide by their pro-vaccine narrative.Whether it’s the slandering of scientists who publish dissenting vaccine safety research or social media sites blocking anti-vaccine content, it’s clear that the “powers that be” want to stop vaccine skepticism from spreading. People who think for themselves and don’t do as they’re told are dangerous, after all.

Research links vaccine to brain damage

A team of scientists from the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology at Sun Yat-sen University in China have confirmed a link between the hepatitis B vaccine (HBV) and brain damage in animal models. Published in 2018 by the journal Cytokine, the researchers say their findings show HBV may have “adverse implications for brain development and cognition” in human infants.

The team reports that their past research has confirmed that neonatal HBV administration causes inflammation in the hippocampus region of the brain in mice, along with behavioral impairments.
According to the scientists, HBV induced an anti-inflammatory cytokine response which lasted four-to-five weeks. A specific cytokine, IL-4, was identified as the primary cytokine induced by the vaccine. The researchers then compared the effects of an IL-4 injection to HBV administration in mice — and concluded that the impairments produced by IL-4 were similar to that of HBV. The researchers write:
“In brief, these experiments showed that IL-4 mediates the delayed neurobehavioral impairments induced by neonatal hepatitis B vaccination, which involves the permeability of neonatal blood–brain barrier and the down-regulation of IL-4 receptor. This finding suggests that clinical events concerning neonatal IL-4 over-exposure, including neonatal hepatitis B vaccination and allergic asthma in human infants, may have adverse implications for brain development and cognition.”
Essentially, what this means is that HBV causes inflammation in the brain that is damaging to normal development and cognitive function. The team has identified overexposure to IL-4 as a cause of this damage.

And we are injecting defenseless babies with this toxic shot within just the first few days of life.
The vaccine sham
Vaccine propaganda is everywhere; whether its the flu shot, the MMR or the HPV vaccine, there’s no shortage of corrupt media pundits or physicians out there campaigning for Big Pharma.

In 2016, the value of the vaccine market was estimated to be around $24 billion. But by 2020, that market is expected to reach a staggering $61 billion. Is it really any surprise that the people who stand to profit most from vaccines insist that they are not only safe, but that they are mandatory?
The CDC pushes vaccine schedules as part of their “mission to promote health and prevent disease,” but what they aren’t telling the public is that even as a federal agency, they accept millions of dollars from Big Pharma every year.

Despite the disclaimers, the CDC does accept money from big business — through an organization known as The CDC Foundation. The foundation raised $42 million during 2016, collecting their dues from Merck, Pfizer and other massive companies that surely have an interest in keeping the CDC in their back pocket.

At every turn, it is clear that vaccine pushing has nothing to do with public health, and everything to do with corporate interests. See more coverage of the corrupt vaccine industry at Vaccines.news.

New cultural center for site of Mexico City army barracks

‘The biggest and most important artistic and cultural space in the world’

by the El Reportero’s news services

A new cultural center touted as the biggest in the world will be established on a military site in Mexico City, President López Obrador announced on Tuesday.

The president said that renowned artist Gabriel Orozco will direct the project in conjunction with the Secretariat of Culture and the Mexico City government.

The center will be built on an 800-hectare former military base that will become the fourth section of the Chapultepec Park.

“It’s going to be the biggest and most important artistic and cultural space in the world,” López Obrador said, adding that Orozco will not charge anything for his services.

A luxury real estate development had been planned for part of the site but López Obrador said last month that idea had been scrapped.

The president said today that the government already has the resources required to build the cultural center although he didn’t specify how much it would cost.

“Not a lot of funds will be needed because the creative side [of the project] is going to be provided voluntarily,” López Obrador said.

“We’ll seek not to waste resources, it’s not [a project of] buildings that will turn into white elephants,” he added.

López Obrador said that a detailed plan of the project, including its cost and how long it will take to complete, will be presented in two or three months.

Orozco, who said in 2015 that Mexico needed a contemporary art museum of the stature of New York’s Museum of Modern Art, Paris’ Centre Pompidou or London’s Tate Museum, described the opportunity to coordinate the cultural center as an “honor.”

The federal government has made a point of returning space formally occupied by the government to the people of Mexico.

The president’s former official residence, Los Pinos, has already been turned into a cultural center, and metal barricades that prevented citizens from getting close to the National Palace were removed shortly after López Obrador took office on December 1.

Protesters with a range of grievances have since established makeshift camps cheek by jowl with the facade of the National Palace, located in Mexico City’s downtown opposite the zócalo, or central square.
