Why Antidepressants Cause Brain Damage, Breast Cancer, and Early Mortality

                                Philippians 4:6 

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. (7) And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

 For anyone first reading the Health and Nutrition Update, please read this first: Your Health.  Please go to God’s Health System and subscribe to receive the updates.

On my blog talk radio show, we are discussing the problem with Christians and prescription drugs. I have posted many articles to show the magnitude of the problem with these drugs and the great dangers of taking them. Please tune in to my show: Looking For the Blessed Hope, Sundays at 9:00 PM EST. It is archived if you cannot make it live. This topic is so serious that it needs to be addressed and God’s people set free from the drugs and protected from ever taking them.

There is a tremendous backlog of great information to get out to you. I have worked out a system so that I can post once a week health related information. The feedback has been tremendous to these postings and many people were helped. It is best to stay far away from the modern medical system unless it is absolutely necessary to let them treat you. Always look to the Lord first and also His natural ways for healing and keeping healthy.

 Always remember that YOU are the final authority for your health and not the Babylonian System.

3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Prescription Drugs

These drugs are not “candy” but mind altering and dangerous.

Why Antidepressants Cause Brain Damage, Breast Cancer, and Early Mortality More evidence to run from prescription drugs into the arms of Jesus for help from depression and anxiety.

“On the other hand, rather extreme side effect data from taking SSRI antidepressants continues to pour in. In November 2008, it was shown that anyone over the age of 50 taking SSRIs on a continual basis had double the risk for fractures, as excessive serotonin production directly blocks new bone formation. In March 2009 it was reported in a large study of women that antidepressant use, independent of other variables, was linked to a statistically increased risk of sudden cardiac death.

In December 2009 researchers reported that in 136,000 postmenopausal women taking SSRIs there was a 45 percent increased risk of stroke of any kind, a 32 percent increased risk of mortality from any cause, a 212 percent increased risk of a hemorrhagic stroke, and a 210 percent increased risk that the stroke damage would be so severe it would cause death. As mentioned at the beginning of this article, the increased rate of inflammation in the brain, especially activating highly inflammatory iNOS in response to INFy, is a clear mechanism that could cause these dangerous strokes in the brain.”

Antidepressants May Be Fueling the Problem This is a great article showing how dangerous many of the prescription drugs are. God’s people should be fleeing from them into the arms of Jesus through His word.

“SSRIs were found to be 33 percent effective, just like a sugar pill – but with far more adverse effects, including violence and suicidal thoughts and actions. Exercise actually outperforms antidepressants, but many still overlook this option.

There is much evidence that antidepressants intensify violent thoughts and behaviors, both suicidal and homicidal, especially among children. And, since the late 1980s, there have been frequent reports of increased violent behavior, including homicides and suicides, among individuals taking antidepressant drugs.

Add to this a faltering economy and many literally feeling like they’re “fighting for their livelihoods” and the safety of their family, and the use of antidepressants may very well be pushing people over the edge rather than keeping them from it… It all depends on how you react to them.”

Vitamin D3

Vitamin D Protects Your Brain Vitamin D3 is one of your main protections from dementia and related brain functioning problems associated with aging.

 Studies have shown that vitamin D3 deficiency is very common in the elderly. This makes sense because so many are house-bound and avoid sun exposure. Many also have GI problems that interfere with vitamin D absorption. While the average diet is a poor source of vitamin D, the diets of many senior citizens are even worse. Studies have shown that vitamin D3 can protect the normal aging brain from neuron loss, especially in the memory areas of the brain, the hippocampus. This means that a higher intake of vitamin D3 can protect your memory.”

Vitamin D May Protect Lung Function in Smokers  It is best not to smoke at all as it is SO dangerous to a person’s health. May the Lord Jesus be glorified by His people being freed from the addiction to tabacco.

Lower Vitamin D Could Increase Risk of Dying, Especially for Frail, Older Adults

Higher but Not Lower Doses of Vitamin D Are Effective in Fracture Risk Reduction in Older Adults Vitamin D is very important for the elderly.

“Taking between 800 IUs and 2,000 IUs of vitamin D per day significantly reduced the risk of most fractures, including hip, wrist and forearm in both men and women age 65 and older,” said Dawson-Hughes, the study’s senior author. “Importantly, we saw there was no benefit to taking Vitamin D supplements in doses below 800 IUs per day for fracture prevention.”

Nutrition

Choline In Eggs And Meat May Influence Gene Expression From Infancy To Adulthood  This is a very important article for pregnant women. Also, eggs are critical in getting enough choline in your system. Once again, the egg is a great source of critical nutrition.

“Choline is an essential nutrient your body makes in small amounts, however you must consume it through your diet to get enough. In adults, choline helps keep your cell membranes functioning properly, plays a role in nerve communications, prevents the buildup of homocysteine in your blood (elevated levels are linked to heart disease) and reduces chronic inflammation.”

How the Body Uses Vitamin B to Recognize Bacterial Infection

“Humans are unable to make vitamin B and obtain it mostly from diet. Because bacteria can synthesise vitamin B, our immune system uses this as a point of difference to recognise infection,” he said.

“Given the relative abundance of the MAIT cells lining mucosal and other surfaces, such as the intestine, the mouth, lungs, it is quite probable that they play a protective role in many infections from thrush to tuberculosis.”

Prostate Cancer: Curcumin Curbs Metastases, Study Shows This is wonderful news for everyone suffering from prostate or breast cancer. If you or someone you know is suffering from these diseases, please do additional research on curcumin.

“Bachmeier’s research centers on curcumin, the polyphenol responsible for the characteristic color of curry. Curcumin is well tolerated and is therefore, in principle, suitable both for prophylactic use (primary prevention) and also for the suppression of metastases in cases where an established tumor is already present (secondary prevention). In a previous study Bachmeier and her colleagues had demonstrated that the substance reduces statistically significantly the formation of lung metastases in an animal model of advanced breast cancer.”

Ancient Remedy Stops Prostate Cancer This does not kill the cancer but just stops its growth.

“A natural remedy available over the counter stops the growth of prostate cells and tumors, according to researchers from the University of Chicago School of Medicine. Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), a compound isolated from propolis — the resin used by honeybees to seal holes in their hives — shut down early-stage prostate cancer by cutting off the tumor cells’ ability to detect sources of nutrition.”

Coconut Oil — Your Smart Alternative to Those Other Oils This is actually an advertisement for coconut oil but it is loaded with great information. I highly recommend that every day you take both coconut and olive oil.

“Icredibly, coconut oil contains one of the same compounds — lauric acid — found in mother’s milk! And lauric acid is the predominant type of MCFA found in coconut oil.  Fortunately for our health, lauric acid in both breast milk and coconut oil transforms when consumed into a substance called monolaurin, the actual compound responsible for helping to strengthen the immune system. In fact, a great volume of research has been done establishing the ability of lauric acid to enhance immunity. What researchers found was that this medium-chain fatty acid derivative actually disrupts the lipid (or fatty) membranes of the offending organisms. The lauric acid in coconut oil is one effortless way to help strengthen your immune system

Antibiotics Without Probiotics Can Be a Dangerous Proposition

“Poor diet is another enemy to healthy gut bacteria. Sugar is enemy number one, as it actually nourishes the bad or pathogenic bacteria, yeast, and fungi in your gut. Hence, dramatically limiting or eliminating sugar and fructose is an essential step to optimize your gut health. Processed foods also promote bad bacteria – partly due to the high fructose content in most processed foods, but also because of the processing, which essentially “kills” the food.”

How Your Gut Flora Influences Your Health  If anyone takes antibiotics they should immediately take probiotics when finished.

“Every course of antibiotics tends to wipe out the beneficial bacteria and that gives a window of opportunity for the pathogens to proliferate, to grow uncontrolled, and to occupy new niches in your gut. The beneficial flora recovers, but different species of it take between two weeks to two months to recover in the gut and that’s a window of opportunity for various pathogens to overgrow. “

Fried Food Risks: Toxic Aldehydes Detected in Reheated Oil This is why continued eating at fast food places are dangerous. The reheated oil is really bad for your health. At home always use fresh oil. I only cook with olive oil or butter. Olive oil can only be used at low temperature.

“It was known that at frying temperature, oil releases aldehydes that pollute the atmosphere and can be inhaled, so we decided to research into whether these remain in the oil after they are heated, and they do”

Statin Users Warned of Memory Loss, Diabetes This is yet another reason to flee from statins and use natural ways to control cholesterol.

Statins increase diabetes in postmenopausal women by seventy percent

This is the future for all who love the Lord Jesus and are looking for His coming:

Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
