- Nature scores another point in the lab
- What you don’t know can hurt you
- Your best protection against cancer is…
As anyone who has undergone radiation and chemotherapy will tell you, the war on cancer is really a war on cells. Current cancer therapies do bloody battle with both cancerous and healthy cells alike. Leaving the host weak and weary after the battle is over. And in some cases, a victory achieved at a great or even excessive cost.
The winning cure in the war against cancer will kill cancer cells only – and leave the healthy cells alone. And presumably, when that happens, the headlines will shout out the good news.
Unless, of course, we find Mother Nature holds the key – not the Big Pharma lab.
Take the recent study where a common extract only killed cancer cells, not healthy cells, in head and neck cancers. And had zero side effects.
Not ringing a bell? You blinked and missed that headline?
MD Exposes the Hidden Danger to Your Eyes
When your eyesight starts to fail, it's a real problem. Suddenly you can't go to the grocery store... you can't get to the doctor if you have an emergency... you can't meet your friends for dinner…
Your "regular" doctor doesn't have time to keep up with the latest research. And the same goes for eye doctors. They go to school to learn how to fit you for glasses and contacts, but have no way of preventing the damage and loss of eyesight that threatens your freedom and independence.
Let me show you something that explains a LOT about how your eyes work.
In my FREE Special Report, I'll show you a HUGE, untapped resource for your eyes that safely and naturally restores clear, effortless eyesight.

Well, here’s the scoop…
Researchers at the University of Colorado tested grape seed extract against head and neck cancer cells – both in the lab and in mice – with excellent results.
Turns out the extract creates an inhospitable environment for cancer cells. It starts by damaging the DNA of the cancer cell. Then, it prevents the cell from repairing itself, making it defenseless so it will die.
Meanwhile, the healthy cells remain unscathed. When used in mice, there were no negative side effects or toxicity to any other areas of the body.
The benefits of grape seed extract are far from new news. The leaves and the fruit of grapes have been used medicinally since ancient Greece. And today, with recent revelations about resveratrol, bioflavonoids, and the antioxidant power of grapes and other berries – this should come as no surprise.
It’s also not the first time scientists have recognized the possible role grape seed extract plays in cancer prevention. This benefit is listed right on the fact sheet issued by the US Department of Health and Human Services. Other benefits include wound healing, complications from diabetes, nerve and eye damage, heart and circulation issues, and vision problems such as macular degeneration.
The World's Quickest Solution for Ending Prostate and Urinary Misery
This has recently been revealed to be one of the only real breakthroughs in prostate health.
The seeds of a strange fruit (sometimes called "Chinese Apples") hold powerful phytonutrients that are a revolution in prostate health.
In fact, UCLA and Veterans Administration research have now proved this to be true.
Not only that, but it may be the worlds quickest solution for ending prostate misery.
Simply stated, these phytonutrients represent a huge step beyond beta sitosterol, saw palmetto, and other phytosterols alone.

The bigger questions are: Why isn’t it all over the news? Why isn’t a big chunk of the billions spent on cancer research being funneled to follow up on this study? And why aren’t doctors telling their patients about the relationship between grape seed extract and cancer?
The researchers themselves end the report on this very promising study with a dismal conclusion. After proclaiming their optimism about their results, they quickly undermine it saying grape seed extract has potential “as an addition to second-line therapies” when conventional treatments don’t work.
Why do effective natural treatments keep getting pushed to the back of the line?
The same could be said of many vitamins, nutrients and even herbs and traditional remedies that have performed well in studies, but are still sitting in “economy class” of the cancer express. Ginger and curcumin. Vitamin C and CoQ10. Melatonin. Any “bad” news about supplements is shouted from the hilltops… and the good news is quickly buried.
This strange conspiracy of silence isn’t going to get us any healthier, any time soon… even if it does make a certain few of us wealthier.
What’s wrong with this picture?
It will be hard to find a cure for cancer if we aren’t looking in the right place. All the money in the world isn’t going to locate a pearl in a lump of coal, or a diamond in an oyster.
It seems our scientists, lobbyists, politicians, and doctors are convinced natural remedies and cures can’t compete with pharmaceutical approaches. So even promising studies like this one aren’t followed up on with any urgency.
If a Big Pharma concoction displayed the same results as grape seed extract has in this and numerous other studies – and there were a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow – they would be fast-tracking it into clinical human trials.
What Does It Mean For You?
One of the most important things you can do for your own health is to pay attention! When a study like this is so promising, take note. The scientific community isn’t going to promote non-pharmaceuticals any time soon. But that’s no reason for you to let important science pass you by.
We are getting useful clues about what might protect us against cancer. Even, what might kill cancer, and only cancer. Armed with information, go ahead and include grape seed oil in your cooking or extract to your supplement regimen. It won’t do any harm – and might do a lot of good.
