"She also charged them as much as $100,000 for a six-month treatment program that she claimed could cure cancer, diabetes and multiple sclerosis."

"Some of her patients, however, died from complications of cancer within three to six months after taking the supplement."

"Some Potential, Natural Solutions for MS"

Because the disease varies widely, so too do the solutions. MS patients are cautioned that what works for one person, may not work for them – not so surprising. However, these potential solutions have had success in many people who suffer from the potentially debilitating disease."

So with the new Hangouts, none of the people I usually chat with were showing up in the list, I had to initiate a hangout with those people, now they show up and I can see when they are online from the very thin almost invisible faint green line under there pic/avatar. I still have people I have never chatted to (gtalked) but at least I have the ones I do chat with in the list now :) You might need to email them to tell them to be online for a chat first lol, it's still a bit weird what Google has done though....

Beard level : German.

The event is being held on the 25th May at The State Library in Swanston Street. It will run from 2pm - 4pm with guest speakers, a seed giveaway, vox pop, and a chance to make history ;)

Here's something very interesting from my point of view and I'm sure  it may at least interest some others. I'm very interested because I was talking to another MSer +Stephen Walton via phone call the other day, we're two old tradies (mechanical, carpentry etc. jack of all trades type of guys) so we have a lot in common. Steve has MS and obviously so do I.

Anyway we got on to the subject of the various jobs we have had over the years, the one that got us thinking was that we both did some gardening type jobs where we had used "Glyphosate" or "Roundup" as it's widely known, though it is marketed under many brands and names. Monsanto make "Roundup". Immediately before I had my first MS exacerbation I had been spraying "Roundup" heavily destroying weeds and basically any living plant life, we were almost drinking the crap we were using it so heavily. This is just before I had my first MS incident and it was the same for Steve.

Just now Steve sent me something very interesting, please have a read, it's not that big text wise.

I got that first link above from this page that Steve sent me
http://action.responsibletechnology.org/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?content_item_KEY=11129
Which also has this video in that link, plus many other vids that talk about possible links to glyphosate and diseases and health issues
GMO MS Leaky Gut! <<< Video

Now I'm no scientist or medico, but it has definitely made me take notice, and yes I also run a G+ "Page" called "March against Monsanto" Melbourne, Australia. Just to be honest and to let you know I do despise Monsanto.

All that has really done though is make me aware of how evil they are, so I'm interested in what they and their GMOs and Chemicals do to us humans.

I have heard about "leaky gut" (you'll see that talked about in the video above) before as a possible cause for MS and many other diseases and problems, but I admit I had fobbed it off, as I don't remember seeing it directly associated with "Glyphosate" so I guess I couldn't see a correlation with my MS, but the first link and 48 page PDF may suggest otherwise and it's science, maybe our western diet is in fact killing us. 
Here's just a random page I found about "leaky gut" and how to hopefully fix it, but do a google search for more information :)
http://scdlifestyle.com/2010/03/the-scd-diet-and-leaky-gut-syndrome/

Now remember, glyphosate-roundup is everywhere, on our food in our sheds and Genetically Modified Organisms, especially Corn, Soybeans, Canola and Cotton and many other GMOs. So I'm just putting this out there, I am not going to harp on about it, but have a look if you're interested and see what you think for yourselves, otherwise just call it the ramblings of a crazy man, I am very interested though if anyone else has any further information or correlations or exposure that they know of and yes I still haven't read the 48 page PDF linked to above, I've only skimmed it so far :)

I've put this in the "Off Topic" category, because, well. of course I'm not positive about any of the above (except my own experiences , but it has got me thinking

Entropy | Free Full-Text | Glyphosate’s Suppression of Cytochrome P450 Enzymes and Amino Acid Biosynthesis by the Gut Microbiome: Pathways to Modern Diseases
Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup®, is the most popular herbicide used worldwide. The industry asserts it is minimally toxic to humans, but here we argue otherwise. Residues are found in the main foods of the Western diet, comprised primarily of sugar, corn, soy and wheat. Glyphosate's inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes is an overlooked component of its toxicity to mammals. CYP enzymes play crucial roles in biology, one of whi...

A good visual explanation of paleo/clean eating.

Join me on the 3 June for my +UNSW ALUMNI - OFFICIAL Brainfood lecture In the Footsteps of Mawson: Antarctic Science and Adventure in the 21st Century

Bookings are essential. Please click at https://alumni.unsw.edu.au/page.aspx?pid=865 to register online.

Here's the formal invitation and details: 

Professor Turney will be presenting on his Antarctic research and its relevance to future change. He will be sharing his scientific insights and Antarctic adventures, having recently returned from a five-week research mission in Antarctica, taken with his colleague  +Chris Fogwill of the UNSW Climate Change Research Centre. 

Excitingly, to mark a century since the Australasian Antarctic Expedition led by the great scientist and explorer Sir Douglas Mawson, Chris will announce details of a privately-funded voyage of discovery south with a team of 45. Departing late November this year, the aim of the expedition is to retrace the original route of Mawson’s endeavour and discover just how much change has taken place in this very special part of our planet. 

Hear how the crew will use the full range of media available, including Google + Hangouts on Air, Twitter, blogs and You Tube to take the public to the Antarctic virtually. And if you’ve dreamed of being an explorer, learn how you can directly take part in this scientific expedition. 

To wet your appetite, you can learn more at http://spiritofmawson.launchrock.com/

Join us for a voyage of discovery that’s been 100 years in the making.

Date: Monday 3 June 2013
Time: 6.00pm for 6:30pm – 7:30pm 
Location: Leighton Hall, The John Niland Scientia Building, UNSW Kensington Campus, Sydney (map ref G19)

+UNSW ALUMNI - OFFICIAL looks forward to welcoming you to the lecture.

"Monsanto is an american multinational corporation founded in the early 1900′s by John Francis Queeny. It’s no coincidence that he was a veteran of the pharmaceutical industry. Monsanto and the people that govern it hide behind the classification of multinational corporations and political labels in order to implement their desired agenda. Why on Earth is our food being manufactured by the largest pesticide company in the world?  Food is supposed to give us health and nourishment, but today our food contains toxins that are without question a major threat to our health."
