Health Discussions-Fruit-Flax Oil-Human Growth Hormone?

**************************************************************THIS WEEK IN THE HSI FORUMFruit is good for you. That's a given. But what about fruits that are high in carbohydrates? Are they good for you? Do they promote type 2 diabetes? Because the answers to those questions depend on variables that are unique from one person to another, there is no one- size-fits allsolution to the fruit-carb situation. But if you'd like to dive into the subject and find some good suggestions and insights along the way, an HSI thread titled "Fruit Puzzlement" is a good place to start. Members Annie, Hoss, Lance and others take on this important subject, weighing the pros and cons of eating fruit alone or with other foods; the role of sugar in feeding cancer cells; the natural disease fighting components of many fruits; and the strong possibility that pesticides and genetic modification do more harm than fruit carbs ever could. Annie reports on an article she read that announced how Israeli researchers have developed a low-sugar fruit that people with diabetes can enjoy. That certainly sounds interesting, but what about carbohydrates? And how does it taste? And what will be the nutritional cost of such tampering? The "Fruit Puzzlement" thread could also be titled, "No Easy Answers." It's a lively discussion, and well worth a visit to the Forum. Also on the Forum this week: * A member named Nancy asks for advice in treating asthma, which starts off a detailed and informed discussion of Flonase, magnesium, water intake, and yoga breathing exercises. * "What can you tell me about HGH?" begins a thread titled "HGH - good or bad?" in which several members weigh in on their experiences and knowledge of human growth hormone. * A long thread titled "Diabetes" was started in February and is still going strong with excellent information that ties in nicely with the discussion of fruit and carbohydrates. If you'd like to join in with any of these discussions, or even start a discussion of your own, log on to the HSI Forum on our web site at www.hsibaltimore.com. ************************************************************** Black-Listed Cancer Treatment Could Save Your Life!The key to stopping many cancers has been around for over 30 years. Yet it has been banned by the very agency designed to protect your health--the FDA. A German research scientist discovered a natural formula that could prevent and even cure cancer. Her findings, which were barred from the medical journals, are now finally available in an updated English translation.

On the surface, this appears to be promising news, but there are a number of critical details to consider, as well as an important warning. In other words: don't start an aspirin or ibuprofen regimen to prevent breast cancer until you have all the facts. http://www.hsibaltimore.com/ea2003/ea_030505.shtmlTuesday, May 6, 2003GETUP'N'GONEAs men grow older their testosterone levels drop.
