Don’t blame the sun for rising melanoma rates 

Melanoma rates are rising. Melanoma is the deadly form of skin cancer. Pundits blame the sun. But, are rates really rising, and is outdoor sun exposure to blame? I don’t think so.


New research finds that doctors are calling early lesions in the skin stage-1 disease. But many of these are totally benign lesions. Diagnostic criteria have shifted over the years, making it easier to call a benign lesion as a cancer. So pathologists or dermatologists are falsely upping the statistics by calling otherwise benign stage-1 lesions melanoma.

Drop dangerous CRP levels 
with a simple vitamin

The older you get, the greater the likelihood that your arteries are going to be gunked up. And clogged arteries lead to heart disease. So wouldn’t it be great if there was a very simple and inexpensive way to decrease that process by as much as 25%? Two recent studies suggest that a single B-vitamin might be able to do just that. 

The first study comes from researchers in Norway. They looked at a group of patients who were taking medication for angina. 

New device treats depression without side effects

Most doctors who treat those suffering from clinical depression typically use dangerous drugs that can make you far worse. I’ve given various ways to treat depression in my newsletter. Normally, these feature a combination of diet, exercise, and particular supplements. But now there’s a new therapy that’s making waves. A device called NeuroStar uses pulsating electromagnetic fields (PEMF) beamed through the skull. PEMF is a hot item in treating a variety of problems from pain to depression. And it works!
