Biopsy samples from people with cancer exposed to Selenium, Vitamin E, or both, were noted to express different genes. The combined exposure produced results similar to that observed in people with no prostate cancer.
Selenium and Vitamin E may provide protection against prostate cancer with this change of expression of these genes in the prostate linked to tumors.
Dimitria Tsavachidou, lead author, writing in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, said,"To the best of our knowledge, this study was the first detailed systematic pathological interrogation to be completed in preoperative patients with favorable risk prostate cancer.”
The research was provided by scientists from the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in
Houston.

More New Benefits from Vitamin D: Reducing Risk of Parkinsons
I've been a speech-language pathologist for over 15 years. If you have ever seen the decline of someone who suffers from Parkinson's disease, it is difficult. The body becomes weak from muscular weakness and pain. Cognitive declines set in and the person slowly loses their ability to speak as their voice becomes weaker and weaker, losing their vocal loudness.
None of us get enough time in the sun and we tend to over use sunscreens. As a result, we are Vitamin D deficient. A new study now suggests that Vitamin D may reduce that risk of developing Parkinson's disease by up to 67%. The study made a comparison of those with low levels of Vitamin D.
In her editorial, Marian Leslie Evatt, MD, MS, from Emory University in Atlanta mentioned that the study was, “the first promising human data to suggest that inadequate vitamin D status is associated with the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease”.
This study was accomplished by researchers from Helsinki, Finland at the National Institute for Health and Welfare. The first longitudinal study of vitamin D status and the risk of Parkinson’s disease, 3,173 Finnish men and women aged between 50 and 79 were included over 29 years of follow-up. The researchers documented 50 cases of Parkinson’s disease.
Lack of Vitamin D is also related to depression. Our wellness clients have benefitted tremendously from the powerful Vitamin D3 supplement Sip of Sunshine. Sip of Sunshine™ is the first anti-aging wellness and energy drink powered by Vitamin D, Selenium, and the body's most powerful Antioxidant, Superoxide Dismutase (SOD). This anti-aging drink naturally helps the body fight defend itself from cellular damage. It also helps you control your appetite while boosting your immune system. You can't beat the all-natural strawberry lemonade flavor either.

How One Employee Improved Workplace Health and Saved His Livelihood
I would like to tell you about a small business that was on the brink of being forced out of business, but was able to stay in business due to a unique approach to workplace health from its employees.
Many US businesses have relocated overseas because of the rising costs of healthcare and of course, the health insurance costs that they then provide to their employees.
With the new healthcare law going into effect, many businesses are rethinking their hiring practices, expansion plans, and staying in the U.S. because of these requirements and rising costs.
On the brink of bankruptcy due to the cost of health insurance, a small factory in the Easter United States was saved by the actions of one employee. This one worker discovered how to treat his health problem through nutritional supplementation.
He also changed his diet, or I should say, his wife did, and he began to lose weight and improve his health. His co-workers saw what was going on with him and asked what he was doing.
If you have ever worked in a small mom and pop factory, you know how close everyone is. The other employees began using this nutritional supplementation approach and their health dramatically improved too.
As a result, these employees went to their health providers less. The dramatic shift from high health care costs caused the health insurance rates for the employer to drop 75%!
The family company was able to stay in businesss. The employer was able to retire when he thought he would face bankruptcy and never be able to retire. He passed on a profitable business.
This model for workplace health could be applied across America. Improving our health through supplementation can dramatically change our lives and treat our diseases instead of masking them with pharmaceuticals. Surgeries are always a risk and only provide a temporary fix for most problems and can be more problematic afterwards.
Don't neglect the mineral and vitamin supplementation required for your body and treat nutritional deficiency diseases. Would you like to pay almost $200,000 for your double knee replacement surgery or live younger, longer?

How To Adjust the Autism Diet to Make it Work
At the beginning of this year, the journal Pediatrics published a report explaining that the gluten-free or casein-free-gluten-free diet does not have any effect on children with autism. The study also said that children with autism do not have any more trouble with their digestion than other children.
The report also expressed concern about children being on these types of diets and receiving the proper amount of nutrition. Here is where I chime in! Is a gluten-free diet bad? No. If your child is allergic to milk, is a casein-free diet bad? No. Ah, you here the "but" coming. No, But...
Children must receive proper nutrition. Frankly, none of us receives the proper amount of nutrients in our diets. We must supplement. Now don't let me get ahead of myself here. Here is why the autism diet is failing.
We see a range of behavioral changes in our children, not just autism. Here is why. In our Western, American diets, sugar and carbohydrates combined with fried foods rein the day. I want my sugary cereal and chicken nuggets. I want to drink grape juice or flavored punch with that. Don't forget the processed macaroni and cheeses (carbs, sugar in one).
Our children go from being breast fed or receiving infant formula right onto sugar and carbohydrates. Litte brains can not develop neurostransmitters on sugar, transfats, and carbs. It is no wonder we see such a prevalance of not only autism, but a range of behaviors our children are being drugged for.
Getting gluten out of the diet is only step one. Removing all sugars, even fruits and fruits juices is critical. No more fried foods. Eggs are good brain food. Not fried, but scrambled, soft poached, or soft boiled. Squash, sweet potatoes, vegetables. If no milk allergies, put some milk and/or butter in them. Meats. Not processed meats with nitrates and nitrites. Don't burn out the good nutrients in your meat either.
We all need 90 essential nutrients for our bodies. The 90 essential nutrients include 60 Minerals, 16 Vitamins, 12 Amino Acids, and 3 Essential Fatty Acids (Omega 3 & 6 are essential).
Here is where children with autism need to get their supplementation, as well as all of us. We are at risk for over 900 nutritional deficiency disorders. By supplementing with the 90 essential nutrients, we can make a significant difference in our health.

International Osteoporosis Foundation Has New Vitamin D Recommendations
In the Osteoporosis International Journal, the International Osteoporosis Foundation issued a new postion statement calling for higher Vitamin D Levels for older adults. Between 9-- and 1,000 IU of Vitamin D per day was recommended to ensure proper blood levels of this vitamin.
Professor Bess Dawson-Hughes of Tufts University stated,"Global Vitamin D status shows widespread insufficiency and deficiency." The conclusion was that many falls and fractures could be prevented with Vitamin D supplementation.
Many of the Vitamin D deficiency diseases include muscle weakness, fractures, osteopenia, osteoporosis, common cancers, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases and cardiovascular disease. More and more research concludes that supplementation is important for a variety of diseases.
Dr.Joel Wallach, a pioneer in treating diseases with supplementation, explains that we are susceptible to over 900 nutritional deficiency diseases. Our bodies require 90 essential nutrients that we can only receive by supplementation.
