Irvine, Calif., Nov. 15, 2010 — UC Irvine researchers have discovered that circadian rhythms — the internal body clock — regulate fat metabolism. This helps explain why people burn fat more efficiently at certain times of day and could lead to new pharmaceuticals for obesity, diabetes and energy-related illnesses.

Progesterone cream is beneficial for both men and women. Progesterone is a hormone that is made naturally by the human body. It effects every tissue in the body including the uterus, cervix, vagina, the endocrine system, brain cells, fat metabolism, thyroid hormone function, water balance, periphral nerve myelin sheath synthesis, bone cells, energy production, the immune system, and more. It is not strictly a female hormone. For men progesterone is produced in the adrenal glands in the testes. For women progesterone is made by the corpus luteum of the ovary. The use of natural progesterone cream inhibits the harmful effects of too much estrogen and reverses the effects of “Estrogen Dominance.”

Melbourne researchers think they have found a way to turn off the cells that prevent cancer patients’ immune systems from beating previously untreatable tumours.
March 12, 2009
The Women’s Cancer Foundation and Monash University in Melbourne have just begun an 18-month trial using low dosage chemotherapy pills. They say it could save hundreds-of-thousands of lives each year.
Professor Michael Quinn from Melbourne’s Royal Women’s Hospital says the new method involves using the patient’s own immune system, and less toxic cancer treatments.
“What we’re hoping is that by using this particular method of synchronising the patient’s own immune system, that we’ll be able to get better responses, more women living longer, and very importantly reduce the toxicity of any treatment,” he said.

SCIENTISTS believe they have made a major breakthrough in cancer treatment after cracking the “code” behind the disease.
They have discovered the body’s immune system can kill cancer cells within a window occurring every 12 to 14 days.
By giving low-dose treatment at exactly the right time, researchers believe they have, against the odds, succeeded in halting the spread of advanced cancer.

I hope that I have your attention because I am going to reveal what the medical establishment and Big Pharma has hidden from the citizens of the world for over 65 years.
When I found this information I was shocked and could not understand why this was kept from people. But the more I pondered on the “WHY” I became so angry I had to step back from all the information for a little while to compose myself. I am still angry but I have to tell you, my readers, the truth of Pharma’s hidden secrets.

The decision whether or not to use hormone therapy to relieve menopausal symptoms just got a bit more complex. For some menopausal women, taking a combination of estrogen and progesterone (or estrogen alone for women who have had hysterectomies) is the only way to get relief from sleep-disrupting night sweats and hot flashes. But they’re also warned about the increased risk of breast cancer associated with hormone use—a risk that becomes significant after women have been on hormones for more than five years. Now a new study published today in the Journal of the American Medical Association shows an association between hormone use and ovarian cancer—and it kicks in almost immediately after women begin taking hormones.
For many women, PMS is a nightmare come true. For the uninitiated, Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a disorder that adversaly affects women around one to two weeks before periods. While such mood changes have been described at the time of the ancient. Greeks, it was Katharina Dalton, a physician and women’s health pioneer, who first identified this cyclic phenomenon. Her book,’ Once A month ,’ set standard for many books and PMS studies. Dr. Arti Luthra, private practitioner and Gynaecologist says, “PMS is very common disorder among women of 30-40. But there is little awareness about this.”
