Thi Kim Quy Ha et al. Pinus densiflora was screened in an ongoing project to discover anti-influenza candidates from natural products. An extensive phytochemical investigation provided 26 compounds, including two new megastigmane glycosides (1 and 2), 21 diterpenoids (3–23), and three flavonoids (24–26). The chemical structures were elucidated by a series of chemical reactions, including […]

In Search of Safety Signals – Let the Light Shine In

Michael Tomlinson Away from the mainstream media, controversy continues about the balance of risks and benefits of universal Covid vaccination. The true status will continue to be in doubt so long as the health authorities keep the relevant information close to their chests instead of releasing it openly to the public. This makes life difficult […]

Hydrogen Peroxide as an Adjuvant Therapy for COVID-19: A Case Series of Patients and Caregivers in the Mexico City Metropolitan Area

Arturo Cervantes Trejo et al. Knowledge of the antiseptic effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) dates back to the late 19th century, and its mechanisms of action has been amply described. Globally, many physicians have reported using H2O2 successfully, in different modalities, against COVID-19. Given its anti-infective and oxygenating properties, hydrogen peroxide may offer prophylactic and […]

Covid Added to the Childhood Vaccine Schedule: No Science, No Rationality, No Morality

Michael Senger In a ghastly new crime against America’s children, particularly those in Democratic states and cities, the CDC today voted to add Covid mRNA vaccines to the childhood immunization schedule, paving the way for mandates by left-wing school districts. The CDC and media fact-checkers were quick to point out that the CDC cannot impose […]

These 2 Antibodies Could Neutralize All COVID Strains, Scientists Say

Joseph Mercola Two antibodies have been uncovered that are so effective at neutralizing COVID-19 — and all of its variants — that they believe the antibodies could serve as an “effective substitute for vaccines.” The antibodies — TAU-1109 and TAU-2310 — bind to a different area of the spike protein than other antibodies, one that […]

Cannabinoids Block Cellular Entry of SARS-CoV-2 and the Emerging Variants

Richard B. van Breemen et al. Cannabinoid acids from hemp (Cannabis sativa) were found to be allosteric as well as orthostericligands with micromolar affinity for the spike protein. In follow-up virus neutralization assays, cannabigerolic acid and cannabidiolic acid prevented infection of human epithelial cells by a pseudovirus expressing the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and prevented entry […]

Food Freedom – Part 2: What You’re Not Told About GMO Crops and Foods

Lucy Crisetig You’ve been told that genetically modified (GM) crops and foods are needed to feed the world’s growing population and to meet challenges facing farmers – climate change as well as pests and diseases. You’ve also been told that GM crops can make agriculture more sustainable, with higher yields, reducing pesticide use, and providing […]
