naturalnews--2020-02-16--The Health Ranger Store has been "China free" since 2014... now the rest of the supplements industry

The Health Ranger Store has been "China free" since 2014... now the rest of the supplements industry is following our lead due to the coronavirus

( Natural News ) It has been the “ dirty little secret ” of the food , supplements and vitamin industry for decades : Most of the products sold in North America are grown or made in China .
There ’ s only one natural products manufacturer and retailer in the world that has , for years , confirmed and labeled the majority of its products “ China free.
” The name of that retailer ?
The Health Ranger Store .
Because they ’ re solely focused on profits and lowering the cost of ingredients , most products and retailers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from China .
Nearly all vitamin C sold in America and around the world , for example , comes from China .
Here ’ s a short list of some of the other things that are grown and manufactured in China : – “ Organic ” foods and groceries , including many organics sold at Whole Foods .
( P.S .
“ Certified organic ” from China is a fraud . )
– Superfood ingredients such as wheat grass , chlorella , spirulina and various superfood powders .
– Nearly all rice protein @ @ @ @ @ @ @ China .
– Nearly all vitamins such as vitamin C , vitamin D , various B vitamins and more .
– Almost 100 % of amino acids sold in supplements and protein formulas — including BCAAs — come out of Chinese chemical factories .
– Cosmetic ingredients such as moisturizers , fillers and fragrances almost all come out of China .
– Herbs and spices : The vast majority of herbs used in herbal formulations , Chinese Medicine and tinctures are grown or processed in China .
– Bulk foods : China produces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as grains , legumes , vegetables and fruits .
– Food derivatives such as maltodextrin , corn syrup , soy protein and many oils , fibers and extracts also come from China .
Now , thanks to the coronavirus pandemic , demand for China-sourced ingredients is COLLAPSING Suddenly everyone in the superfood , storable food and supplements industry is realizing something rather shocking : Their supply lines are highly vulnerable to “ black swan events ” such as the coronavirus pandemic in China .
Now , many formulators and retailers suddenly can ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turning away from China , thinking that perhaps China-sourced ingredients might be contaminated with the coronavirus , which can reportedly survive on surfaces for up to 9 days .
The Health Ranger Store has , for years , developed trusted suppliers outside of China , and we have long-established supply lines in Europe , Canada , India , Mexico , Central and South America , etc .
Even then , we are now hearing from our suppliers that everyone is rejecting materials from China , causing a huge shift toward non-China sources , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supply lines .
For example , we just purchased the last few thousand pounds of non-China organic millet that ’ s available on the planet .
We needed this millet to continue producing our Ranger Bucket certified organic emergency storable food products , which we can hardly keep in stock because everybody buys them the moment the inventory is refreshed .
So now , we ’ re told that after this shipment of millet is delivered to us , there ’ s no more organic millet until the next harvest .
We ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ re going to be able to keep producing the Ranger Buckets , frankly .
We might have to start swapping out certain ingredients with others that we can still find .
Here are some of the certifications we typically offer for products at the Health Ranger Store : Now the rest of the industry is following our lead , moving away from China ( and creating supply chain chaos ) Most product manufacturers are only interested in profit , not clean ingredients .
That ’ s why they ’ ve used China-based materials @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s changing , thanks to the coronavirus pandemic .
The whole world is now shifting away from China , following the lead that The Health Ranger Store trailblazed five years ago , often being laughed at by people in the industry who thought labeling our products “ China free ” seemed stupid .
Guess what ?
It turns out the move was pure genius .
Not everything in our store is China free , of course , but when you combine our global sourcing network with our in-house laboratory that tests every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , pesticides , microbiology and more , customers fully realize that the Health Ranger Store has the cleanest , most scrutinized , most honest selection of natural living products anywhere in the world .
We still get goji berries from China , for example , but they come from the high altitude regions of Tibet , now the agricultural lowlands which are irrigated by polluted Chinese river water , filled with toxic waste from their factories .
( At the moment , interestingly , their rivers are probably the cleanest in years , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ running… ) Supplements , laundry detergent , superfoods , sprouted drink mixes , essential oils , turmeric root powder , medicinal mushrooms , storable food and more : We ’ ve got the non-China supply lines and the internal lab testing to keep bringing you the world ’ s cleanest health products for as long as the supply lines hold out .
Sadly , the supply lines aren ’ t looking very good at the moment .
There may be a day when we flat out can ’ t get new materials due @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the coronavirus .
Until that day comes , however , we will keep supplying our customers with the best lab tested , China-free products in the world .
Thank you for your support .

The Health Ranger Store has been “China free” since 2014… now the rest of the supplements industry is following our lead due to the coronavirus
It has been the "dirty little secret" of the food, supplements and vitamin industry for decades:
There's only one natural products manufacturer and retailer in the world that has, for years, confirmed and labeled the majority of its products "China free." The name of that retailer? The Health Ranger Store.
Because they're solely focused on profits and lowering the cost of ingredients, most products and retailers rely heavily on ingredients and raw materials from China. Nearly all vitamin C sold in America and around the world, for example, comes from China. Here's a short list of some of the other things that are grown and manufactured in China:
- "Organic" foods and groceries, including many organics sold at Whole Foods. (P.S. "Certified organic" from China is a fraud.)
- Superfood ingredients such as wheat grass, chlorella, spirulina and various superfood powders.
- Nearly all rice protein and soy protein products are sourced from China.
- Nearly all vitamins such as vitamin C, vitamin D, various B vitamins and more.
- Almost 100% of amino acids sold in supplements and protein formulas -- including BCAAs -- come out of Chinese chemical factories.
- Cosmetic ingredients such as moisturizers, fillers and fragrances almost all come out of China.
- Herbs and spices: The vast majority of herbs used in herbal formulations, Chinese Medicine and tinctures are grown or processed in China.
- Bulk foods: China produces a huge portion of bulk foods such as grains, legumes, vegetables and fruits.
- Food derivatives such as maltodextrin, corn syrup, soy protein and many oils, fibers and extracts also come from China.
Now, thanks to the coronavirus pandemic, demand for China-sourced ingredients is COLLAPSING
Suddenly everyone in the superfood, storable food and supplements industry is realizing something rather shocking: Their supply lines are highly vulnerable to "black swan events" such as the coronavirus pandemic in China.
Now, many formulators and retailers suddenly can't get supplies. Others are consciously turning away from China, thinking that perhaps China-sourced ingredients might be contaminated with the coronavirus, which can reportedly survive on surfaces for up to 9 days.
The Health Ranger Store has, for years, developed trusted suppliers outside of China, and we have long-established supply lines in Europe, Canada, India, Mexico, Central and South America, etc. Even then, we are now hearing from our suppliers that everyone is rejecting materials from China, causing a huge shift toward non-China sources, creating massive shortages in all those non-China supply lines.
For example, we just purchased the last few thousand pounds of non-China organic millet that's available on the planet. We needed this millet to continue producing our Ranger Bucket certified organic emergency storable food products, which we can hardly keep in stock because everybody buys them the moment the inventory is refreshed. So now, we're told that after this shipment of millet is delivered to us, there's no more organic millet until the next harvest.
We're not even sure how we're going to be able to keep producing the Ranger Buckets, frankly. We might have to start swapping out certain ingredients with others that we can still find.
Here are some of the certifications we typically offer for products at the Health Ranger Store:
- Glyphosate tested
- Vegan
- Non-GMO certified
- Laboratory verified
- China free
Now the rest of the industry is following our lead, moving away from China (and creating supply chain chaos)
Most product manufacturers are only interested in profit, not clean ingredients. That's why they've used China-based materials for almost everything. But now that's changing, thanks to the coronavirus pandemic.
The whole world is now shifting away from China, following the lead that The Health Ranger Store trailblazed five years ago, often being laughed at by people in the industry who thought labeling our products "China free" seemed stupid. Guess what? It turns out the move was pure genius.
Not everything in our store is China free, of course, but when you combine our global sourcing network with our in-house laboratory that tests every raw material we acquire for heavy metals, pesticides, microbiology and more, customers fully realize that the Health Ranger Store has the cleanest, most scrutinized, most honest selection of natural living products anywhere in the world. We still get goji berries from China, for example, but they come from the high altitude regions of Tibet, now the agricultural lowlands which are irrigated by polluted Chinese river water, filled with toxic waste from their factories. (At the moment, interestingly, their rivers are probably the cleanest in years, given that the factories aren't running...)
Supplements, laundry detergent, superfoods, sprouted drink mixes, essential oils, turmeric root powder, medicinal mushrooms, storable food and more: We've got the non-China supply lines and the internal lab testing to keep bringing you the world's cleanest health products for as long as the supply lines hold out.
Sadly, the supply lines aren't looking very good at the moment. There may be a day when we flat out can't get new materials due to a global economic collapse caused by the coronavirus. Until that day comes, however, we will keep supplying our customers with the best lab tested, China-free products in the world.

China's power consumption plunges as coronavirus pandemic shutters factories; economic numbers certain to plunge next

( Natural News ) Several analysts have been keeping an eye on China ’ s internal economic activity as another way of gauging how severe the coronavirus spread really is and how drastic the government ’ s actions are to contain it .
Over the past few days , these analysts have been able to piece together a number of indicators suggesting that a ) the spread of the virus is much more profound and widespread than the government in Beijing is saying ; and b ) mass quarantines and other actions aimed at controlling population movement are having such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the demand for power needed by factories and other business enterprises has fallen off dramatically .
As reported by The Epoch Times , industrial power demand in China this year could fall off by as much as 73 billion kilowatt towers , according to IHS Markit , due to fallout from the coronavirus that has prevented scores of workers from returning to their jobs .
The decline only accounts for about 1.5 percent of all industrial power consumption in China , the paper said .
But because the country is so big @ @ @ @ @ @ @ drop-off in production like that is still more equal to the power consumption of small countries like Chile .
Also , it shows just how vast the coronavirus spread has been and what an impact it really has had on the economy overall .
The reduction is the energy equivalent of about 30 million tonnes of thermal coal or about 9 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas ( LNG ) , IHS said .
The coal figure is more than China ’ s average monthly imports last year while the LNG figure is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ imports , based on customs data .
The Communist government has attempted to curb the spread of the virus by extending the Lunar New Year holiday for an extra week , while encouraging more people to work from their homes .
According to Xizhou Zhou , the global head of Power and Renewables at IHS Markit , in a more severe outbreak scenario in which , say , the pandemic extends past March , economic growth in China for the year 2020 will only be around 4.2 percent , down from a pre-outbreak @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a far cry from the days of double-digit annual growth in the 1990s and earlier this century .

China’s power consumption plunges as coronavirus pandemic shutters factories; economic numbers certain to plunge next
Several analysts have been keeping an eye on China’s internal economic activity as another way of gauging how severe the coronavirus spread really is and how drastic the government’s actions are to contain it.
Over the past few days, these analysts have been able to piece together a number of indicators suggesting that a) the spread of the virus is much more profound and widespread than the government in Beijing is saying; and b) mass quarantines and other actions aimed at controlling population movement are having such a significant negative impact on economic activity that the demand for power needed by factories and other business enterprises has fallen off dramatically.
As reported by The Epoch Times, industrial power demand in China this year could fall off by as much as 73 billion kilowatt towers, according to IHS Markit, due to fallout from the coronavirus that has prevented scores of workers from returning to their jobs.
The decline only accounts for about 1.5 percent of all industrial power consumption in China, the paper said. But because the country is so big and so heavily populated, a small drop-off in production like that is still more equal to the power consumption of small countries like Chile. Also, it shows just how vast the coronavirus spread has been and what an impact it really has had on the economy overall.
The Epoch Times notes further:
The reduction is the energy equivalent of about 30 million tonnes of thermal coal or about 9 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas (LNG), IHS said. The coal figure is more than China’s average monthly imports last year while the LNG figure is a little more than one month of imports, based on customs data.
The Communist government has attempted to curb the spread of the virus by extending the Lunar New Year holiday for an extra week, while encouraging more people to work from their homes.
According to Xizhou Zhou, the global head of Power and Renewables at IHS Markit, in a more severe outbreak scenario in which, say, the pandemic extends past March, economic growth in China for the year 2020 will only be around 4.2 percent, down from a pre-outbreak forecast of 5.8 percent, which itself is a far cry from the days of double-digit annual growth in the 1990s and earlier this century.
‘Operating below 10 percent’
Meanwhile, power consumption would only grow by about 3.1 percent, down from 4.1 percent. And remember, all of these declines represent a decline in economic activity and income for ordinary Chinese.
“The main uncertainty is still how fast the virus will be brought under control,” said Zhou, noting further that the impact on the power sector will be relatively modest from a full-year picture in 2020.
Regionally, the decline in power consumption and resultant economic activity has been much greater, especially in Hubei Province, the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak. There, according to The Epoch Times citing published data, peak power loads averaged 21 percent less in January than anticipated.
“Utilization rates at plastic processors are between 30 percent and 60 percent and the low levels are expected to last for another two weeks, according to ICIS China,” said the news site, while noting further that weaving machines at textile plants are currently operating below 10 percent of their overall capacity.
Zero Hedge reported further that several indicators show that not only is Chinese power production and consumption off, but so, too, is travel and ordinary commerce. This is all going to lead to global supply chain shortages that analysts believe will be costly to the global economy.
And keep in mind, the virus hasn’t even begun to spread in the world’s No. 1 economy, the United States, though government health experts believe that it’s coming.

Director of CDC warns Americans that Wuhan coronavirus is “coming,” will spread widely, and likely last “beyond 2020”
Americans have largely been spared most of the world’s deadly diseases and pandemics in recent decades, but the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention isn’t so sure that we’re going to be spared the wrath of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19).
At president, the extremely virulent virus is ravaging China — especially in Wuhan City, the epicenter of the outbreak, so much so that the city is importing funeral home workers from around the country and paying them $143 an hour just to process all the bodies, The Epoch Times reports.
CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield, in an interview last week, didn’t make any predictions about that kind of morbidity in the United States, but he did say that the outbreak will reach our country and become a “community virus” this year or even into next year.
“We don’t know a lot about this virus,” he told CNN’s Dr. Sanjay Gupta. “This virus is probably with us beyond this season, beyond this year, and I think eventually the virus will find a foothold and we will get community-based transmission.”
He added ominously: “Right now, we’re in an aggressive containment mode,” Zero Hedge reported.
As of last week, some 15 cases of the virus had been confirmed in seven states: Eight in California, two in Illinois and one in Arizona, Washington, Massachusetts, Wisconsin and Texas, CNN reported.
Redfield noted that while more research is necessary, his agency is now focused primarily on containment strategies in order to isolate the bug and slow its spread, thus buying more time to develop ways to combat it.
“The containment phase is really to give us more time. This virus will become a community virus at some point in time, this year or next year," said Redfield. "We don't have any evidence that this coronavirus is really embedded in the community at this time, but with that said, we want to intensify our surveillance so that we're basing those conclusions based on data.”
‘I would rather be criticized for over-protecting America’
CNN noted further:
The containment strategy refers to efforts to prevent widespread transmission of the coronavirus in the United States, including having people with confirmed cases stay in isolation and placing restrictions on travel between affected areas in the world. Such containment measures were used widely during the SARS global outbreak of 2003, during which 8,098 people worldwide became sick and of those, 774 died, according to the CDC.
The World Health Organization has said that global travel restrictions on foreign nationals could actually backfire, but the Trump administration has nonetheless implemented them against foreign nationals who have visited China within the past 14 days, barring them from entering the U.S. And anyone who has traveled to Wuhan City will be subject to a 14-day quarantine.
According to reports, WHO Director-General Tedros Ahanom Ghebreyesus voiced opposition to travel restrictions last week, saying, in part, that they would “unnecessarily interfere with international travel and trade,” as well as create “fear and stigma.”
But Redfield dismissed that.
“Frankly, some people criticized when we decided that we wanted to temporarily suspend travel into the United States from individuals who were not Americans or permanent residents who had been in the hot zone in the last 14 days. Some people didn't think that that was what they would do,” he told CNN.
“Well, we felt very strongly that our obligation was to do all we can to protect the American public," he added. "I would rather be criticized for over-protecting America than under-protecting America at this stage.”
The U.S. military is also preparing, as Natural News reported. Site founder/editor Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, noted that the Pentagon sent out orders to the Northern Command to begin assessing its capabilities to handle a pandemic.
Plans “include ordering commanders to prepare for widespread outbreaks and confining service members with a history of travel to China,” the Military Times added.

Chinese funeral homes offering workers $143 an HOUR from all across the country to literally stack up and move all the dead bodies
Chinese Communist leaders are desperate to keep the world (and their own people) from discovering just how bad the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic is and they’ve been closed-mouthed about the number of actual deaths stemming from the outbreak.
However, little by little, news trickles out of the traditionally opaque Chinese government that allows analysts to get a much fuller picture of what’s really taking place in the country.
For example, in another indication that casualties are likely much higher than we’re being told, The Epoch Times reported Saturday that funeral home workers are flocking to Wuhan Province, the epicenter of the viral outbreak, to assist the city of 11 million in processing their increased number of dead.
The paper noted that Netizens were sharing job recruitment notices on social media in which high salaries were being offered to work at funeral homes in the province.
“This adds to the growing evidence that deaths due to the virus are piling up, at a scale greater than what authorities are officially reporting,” the Times reported, added:
As of Feb. 14, the Chinese central government announced that more than one thousand patients have died in Wuhan in the past 45 days. But staff at local crematoriums told The Epoch Times in recent interviews that their intake has skyrocketed in recent weeks, forcing them to work round the clock in order to process the bodies daily. One crematorium official said the facility recently peaked at processing 127 bodies in one day.
And clearly, with the job announcements, funeral home directors believe that ‘business’ isn’t going to slow down anytime soon — a point emphasized by some local medical workers who have also been revealing the true severity of the pandemic.
“We have collected hundreds of thousands of samples for diagnosis,” Wang Hui, chief nurse at the Wuhan Tongji Hospital, one of more than 40 in the city that have been designated virus treatment centers, said during a recent media interview.
That means that the facility itself has treated hundreds of thousands of people suspected of having the virus.
‘$143 an hour and must be brave’
A photo was widely shared on Twitter Feb. 12 showing 14 people dressed in the same uniform standing, masked, in front of the Shiqiaopu Funeral Home in Chongqing City.
https://twitter.com/RFA_Chinese/status/1227488101943005185
The unfurled banner reads “Chongqing supports Hubei Province, funeral home service team,” according to The Epoch Times, which adds that Chongqing is just to the west of Hubei Province, the capital of which is Wuhan.
The same day on Weibo, a Twitter-like Chinese social media platform, an independent reporter posted that an eight-person team from the Chongqing branch of Fushouyuan International Group, China’s largest funeral service provider, went to Wuhan to provide support — another indication that ‘business is booming.’
Three workers from the Luoyang Funeral Home in Henan Province arrived in Wuhan Feb. 7, according to state-run newspaper Gongyi Shibao, but that report was eventually pulled, likely by Chinese government censors.
The same day, Hunan provincial-government-run media Xiaoxiang Morning reported that four funeral home employees were sent from Changde City to Wuhan to support funeral homes that were inundated with bodies of those who had died from the virus.

The Feb. 12 recruitment notice said the funeral home needed 20 workers to pick up bodies between midnight and 4 a.m. Requirements for potential candidates were that they be between “16 to 50 years old…being physically strong and brave.”
The pay? 1,000 yuan — $143 an hour.

U.S. military preparing to implement medical martial law due to coronavirus pandemic
The Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) has issued an executive order (EO) calling on the United States Northern Command to start preparing for a full-blown pandemic of the Wuhan coronavirus (CoVid-19) here on American soil.
According to a service-wide message issued this past week to the Navy and Marine Corp, Defense Secretary Mark Esper has officially approved the EO, which orders commanders to get ready for "widespread outbreaks" of the Wuhan coronavirus (CoVid-19). They're also reportedly being told to prepare for having to forcibly confine service members "with a history of travel to China."
Similar to what communist China is doing by implementing medical martial law, the U.S. military under President Donald Trump is implementing what's known as the Department of Defense Global Campaign plan for Pandemic Influenza and Infectious Diseases 3551-13, which the Military Times describes as "the Pentagon's blueprint for planning and preparing for widespread dispersion of influenza and previously unknown diseases."
U.S. Northern Command has indicated that it is now directing the Joint Staff to commence "prudent planning" based on its assigned role to synchronize the department's various plans for handling a pandemic flu or similar disease. At the same time, it also added that this planning does not necessarily "indicate a greater likelihood of an event developing."
"As military professionals, planning for a range of contingencies is something we owe the American people," stated Navy Lieutenant Commander Mike Hatfield in a statement. "We coordinate with other combatant commands to assess potential impacts in the event of a pandemic and we ensure the U.S. military is poised to respond as required."
"The military profession fosters a culture of planning, and the fact that we are coordinating planning efforts across the geographical combatant commands is consistent with how we prepare to respond, if directed," he further added.
Listen below as Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, discusses how the Wuhan coronavirus (CoVid-19) is shaping up to be an infamous black swan event that has the very real potential to take down the global economy:
Is the U.S. military expecting its own Wuhan coronavirus (CoVid-19) outbreaks at its various installations?
According to Marine Corps message MARADMIN 082/20, commanders throughout the U.S. military are being told to review their disease containment plans and take all necessary "preparatory and precautionary actions" to protect all of its service members, installations and ships stations around the globe.
Part of this includes ensuring that all plans for containment procedures are assessed from response to isolation to quarantine to restriction of movement and "community-based intervention," according to the memo.
The Marine Corps, it further adds, has to be able to "mitigate, respond (to), and recover from the effects (of the Wuhan coronavirus (CoVid-19) in order to maintain force readiness."
All service members and military commanders who have been to China since February 2 are being asked to stay confined to their residences, or if they live in an open barracks or share a bathroom with others to relocate to a temporary lodging facility for 14 days – even though we now know that the Wuhan coronavirus (CoVid-19) can incubate for nearly a month as opposed to just two weeks.

Declaring that China is currently in a "state of war," the directive goes on to explain that all elements of the BCDC need to take up their respective responsibilities and roles as outlined for implementation during a wartime state. It also calls on them to strengthen this implementation with "wartime standards," which is defined as essentially doing everything that the group's superiors say to do without question.
"All employees must unconditionally obey work scheduling and consciously obey management," the directive reads, along with additional instructions about how to maintain an efficiently effective workflow at all times.
In the following episode of The Health Ranger Report, Mike Adams, the Health Ranger discusses how there's going to come a point when all of the chaos taking place in China eventually reaches our own shores, at the very least by disrupting our economy and the stock market. Be sure to listen:
All of Beijing's Centers for Disease Control workers are now prohibited from leaving Beijing and can only drive to work and eat – no leisure!
The Wartime Status Order also stresses the importance of "wartime thinking," which it describes as minimizing "cross-contact" – meaning all contact with others that doesn't involve work or fulfill some other wartime utilitarian purpose.
"During the epidemic," it says, "all staff members are strictly prohibited from leaving Beijing, strictly commuting to work, eating out, and consciously doing good health management after work." In other words, no fun and no play, just work and following orders at all times.
"Non-work must not be connected to the department, try to use the phone or WeChat, SMS and other means of communications," it further instructs. "Try to have as few meeting and short meetings as possible to control the number of participants."
There's also a heavy emphasis on "security" in the announcement, including in the areas of politics, ideologies, network information, confidential work, laboratory biologicals, and even food. Every area of life in China, it would seem, is now under lockdown, at least at the BCDC and in many sectors of the Chinese economy.
The final section of the announcement addresses a draconian concept known as "war discipline," warning that "[t]he big battle is coming."
"All party branches must mobilize their thoughts and gather the masses to give full play to the role of battle fortress," it says, adding that "cadres at all levels must lead by example, dare to take the lead and give full play to the leading role." It also emphasizes that "each party member must advance, take on the burden and give full play to the vanguard exemplary role."

How low is too low? Lowering "bad" cholesterol by using medication could be bad for you, warn experts

( Natural News ) Is there really “ good ” cholesterol and “ bad ” cholesterol ?
The medical community has branded low density lipoprotein , or LDL , cholesterol “ bad ” because high levels are linked to plaque buildup in the arteries , heart disease , and risk of ischemic stroke .
However , a new study from Penn State University argues that LDL cholesterol is necessary in moderate amounts .
LDL cholesterol is not altogether “ bad ” because the right balance of this waxy fat-like substance is needed in order for the body to make hormones @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the metabolites that aid in digestion .
Forcing LDL cholesterol levels too low can have deadly consequences The Penn State study shows that low LDL cholesterol levels may actually be dangerous and lead to an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke .
This is when a blood vessel bursts in the brain .
Lead author Dr. Xiang Gao , an associate professor of nutritional science at Penn State wrote , “ As is true with many things in nutrition , moderation and balance is key when deciding the optimal target level of LDL cholesterol @ @ @ @ @ @ @ either extreme — too high or too low.
” Doctors typically recommend that patients get their LDL cholesterol levels below 100 milligrams per deciliter .
Patients at high risk of heart problems are often put on cholesterol lowering drugs to ensure their levels stay below 70 milligrams per deciliter .
But , pushing the LDL level too low may increase one ’ s risk of hemorrhaging stroke by 65 % .
The study involved roughly 96,000 participants from Tangshan , China .
None of the participants had a family history of heart attack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the participant ’ s cholesterol levels every year for nine years .
During the nine year period , there were 753 cases of hemorrhagic stroke , representing less than one percent of the population .
Taking a closer look , hemorrhagic stroke was 65 % more likely for participants whose LDL cholesterol levels were below 70 mg/dL , compared to LDL levels between 70 and 99 mg/dL .
Hemorrhagic stroke was even more prominent for participants with LDL cholesterol levels below 50 mg/dL .
These people were twice as likely to suffer from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Because cholesterol is important in the formation of cell membranes , when levels get low , red blood cells become weaker .

How low is too low? Lowering “bad” cholesterol by using medication could be bad for you, warn experts
Is there really “good” cholesterol and “bad” cholesterol? The medical community has branded low density lipoprotein, or LDL, cholesterol “bad” because high levels are linked to plaque buildup in the arteries, heart disease, and risk of ischemic stroke.
However, a new study from Penn State University argues that LDL cholesterol is necessary in moderate amounts. LDL cholesterol is not altogether “bad” because the right balance of this waxy fat-like substance is needed in order for the body to make hormones, produce vitamin D, and produce the metabolites that aid in digestion.
Forcing LDL cholesterol levels too low can have deadly consequences
The Penn State study shows that low LDL cholesterol levels may actually be dangerous and lead to an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke. This is when a blood vessel bursts in the brain.
Lead author Dr. Xiang Gao, an associate professor of nutritional science at Penn State wrote, “As is true with many things in nutrition, moderation and balance is key when deciding the optimal target level of LDL cholesterol. You can't go to either extreme — too high or too low."

Patients at high risk of heart problems are often put on cholesterol lowering drugs to ensure their levels stay below 70 milligrams per deciliter. But, pushing the LDL level too low may increase one’s risk of hemorrhaging stroke by 65%.
The study involved roughly 96,000 participants from Tangshan, China. None of the participants had a family history of heart attack, cancer or stroke. Doctors measured the participant’s cholesterol levels every year for nine years. During the nine year period, there were 753 cases of hemorrhagic stroke, representing less than one percent of the population.
Taking a closer look, hemorrhagic stroke was 65% more likely for participants whose LDL cholesterol levels were below 70 mg/dL, compared to LDL levels between 70 and 99 mg/dL. Hemorrhagic stroke was even more prominent for participants with LDL cholesterol levels below 50 mg/dL. These people were twice as likely to suffer from a burst blood vessel in the brain.
Because cholesterol is important in the formation of cell membranes, when levels get low, red blood cells become weaker. Red blood cells, suffering from a shortage of cholesterol, are more likely to rupture. Because LDL cholesterol helps blood clot, low LDL levels increase bleeding risk. This is a dangerous formula that can lead to hemorrhagic stroke and brain bleeds.
Statin therapy could increase hemorrhagic stroke risk in healthy patients
Statin therapy is commonly used to lower LDL cholesterol, lessen plaque buildup in arteries and prevent ischemic stroke, but doctors should monitor patients to make sure that their cholesterol levels are not too low.
"Multiple randomized clinical trials tell us that statin therapy can reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes by 25% to 50%, even among individuals with normal or low cholesterol," says Dr. Ridker, director of the Center for Cardiovascular Disease Prevention at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women's Hospital.
Dr. Ridker is referencing a study published in The Lancet, which included 174,000 people and determined that their risk of cardiovascular events can be reduced by 20 percent over a five year period if a statin is used to lower their cholesterol by 40 mg/dL.
On top of statins’ other side effects -- like muscle wasting, cognitive decline, diabetes, rapid aging, and mitochondrial dysfunction -- doctors should be wary of this newly discovered risk. If medicating LDL levels down 40mg/dL means the patient’s level fall below 75 mg/dL, they could be nearly twice as likely to suffer from an unnecessary cardiovascular event called hemorrhagic stroke.

( Natural News ) A California company is marketing a robotic dog they ’ re developing to be a best friend that can comfort people who are living with Alzheimer ’ s disease and other forms of dementia .
The makers said that this robot dog will be able to provide companionship for people by responding to human voice and touch with “ life-like motions.

The Tombot dog , known as “ Jennie , ” has 16 motors that control its movements and it has sensors that allow it to respond to voice commands and to touch .
This touch sensor is sophisticated enough to allow the Tombot dog to respond differently depending on whether it ’ s being given a vigorous playful pet or a gentle caress .
Stevens said that he came up with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ diagnosed with Alzheimer ’ s and it became too difficult to take care of her and her dog .
He hopes this technology can one day provide companionship that doesn ’ t require a lot of effort to maintain for people like his mother .
Tombot is also being marketed as a way to help people , both young and old , deal with other mental health concerns such as stress , anxiety , loneliness and depression .
Currently , Jennie is being used in several nursing homes around the US as part @ @ @ @ @ @ @ therapy that involves developing the loving relationship between humans and other animals , usually dogs and cats , to reduce a wide range of mental health concerns .

Who is man’s best friend? To some people with dementia, it’s a robot dog
A California company is marketing a robotic dog they're developing to be a best friend that can comfort people who are living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. The makers said that this robot dog will be able to provide companionship for people by responding to human voice and touch with "life-like motions."
Entrepreneur Tom Stevens of the company Tombot presented a test version of their robotic dog, a yellow Labrador puppy, to older residents in a nursing home in Thousand Oaks, California in early July of 2019. Stevens partnered with Jim Henson's Creature Shop, an effects company that also created The Muppets, to help give the robot dog realistic movements.
"It didn't just have to look real and feel realistic but it had to behave realistically as well," said Stevens. He believes that once the Tombot dog is complete, it will be able to grunt, wag its tail and move its head from side to side in such a manner that will be lifelike enough to help people with Alzheimer's and dementia. Furthermore, he said that another benefit is that it'll be easier to look after than a real dog.
The Tombot dog, known as "Jennie," has 16 motors that control its movements and it has sensors that allow it to respond to voice commands and to touch. This touch sensor is sophisticated enough to allow the Tombot dog to respond differently depending on whether it's being given a vigorous playful pet or a gentle caress.
Stevens said that he came up with the idea for Jennie after his mother became diagnosed with Alzheimer's and it became too difficult to take care of her and her dog. He hopes this technology can one day provide companionship that doesn't require a lot of effort to maintain for people like his mother. Tombot is also being marketed as a way to help people, both young and old, deal with other mental health concerns such as stress, anxiety, loneliness and depression.
Using robot dogs in animal therapy
Currently, Jennie is being used in several nursing homes around the US as part of animal therapy, a kind of therapy that involves developing the loving relationship between humans and other animals, usually dogs and cats, to reduce a wide range of mental health concerns. (Related: Robot-dog being used to help dementia patients remember memories.)
The most recent versions of Jennie, along with her previous skills, have also allowed her to bark, open and close her mouth and move her head and eyes. The response Jennie has gotten from older residents of nursing homes has been overwhelmingly positive, much to the joy of Stevens. Those who have interacted with the robot dog have described her as a "good girl" and "awesome."
While Jennie is the first robot dog Tombot has released, Stevens has mentioned that his company is developing other kinds of robot animals, including other breeds of dogs and cats.
"Live animal therapy helps soothe the behavior and psychological symptoms (of living with dementia)," said Stevens in an interview. "With the robot animals, it's important to introduce them early in the disease progression so that they have the cognition to form the attachment. So when they're in a later stage in their dementia progression, the animal is already something that they turn to for comfort."
Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia are serious health concerns, and a variety of natural therapies and interventions can be done to prevent them. Learn more about these preventative measures you can take at Dementia.news.

CATASTROPHIC ERROR: In just two days, thousands of potentially cross-infected passengers from the Diamond Princess cruise ship will be released and allowed to take commercial flights anywhere in the world
World health authorities are about to commit a gross error that could literally end up costing millions of lives.
So far, 355 passengers on the Diamond Princess cruise ship have been diagnosed with coronavirus infections. As you may recall, this started from just one passenger, then grew to 10, then 30, and now more than 10% of the entire passenger manifest is infected.
The 3,000+ passengers have been quarantined on this cruise ship for 12 days. But the ship isn't a level-4 biohazard facility, and passengers are sharing the same recirculated cabin air -- a critical realization, considering that coronavirus spreads through the air.
Two days from now, on Feb. 19th, the original "14-day quarantine" comes to an end. All the remaining passengers who do not test positive for the coronavirus will be released by the government of Japan and allowed to board commercial flights to any city, anywhere in the world.
What's wrong with this picture?
Cross-infected passengers may have just been infected today, and won't show symptoms for weeks
Consider the fact that thousands of people on board that ship may have been infected just yesterday, or today or tomorrow. They won't show symptoms for up to 24 days, and they won't test positive for the coronavirus until much later in the incubation period.
While some passengers are opting for government-chartered evacuation plans, others are about to board commercial planes and fly to their destinations across the world, all with zero quarantine protections. Once there, they won't be subjected to any further quarantine measures by their local governments, since they can claim they've "already been through a 14-day quarantine" on board the ship (which is false, technically speaking, see below...). A week or two later, they may develop full-blown symptoms, and during this entire incubation period, they may be spreading the virus to others in their local communities.
Apparently, no government health authorities have yet realized that a quarantine which allows shared air among the quarantine participants is no quarantine at all because cross-infections can be initiated during any day of the 14-day quarantine. A real 14-day quarantine must secure total isolation for all participants so that each individual is isolated from all others for the entire duration of the quarantine. That's the only way you can know they aren't infected. (And technically, it needs to be 24 days, not just 14.)
Yet that protocol is not being followed here.
A passenger from the Diamond Princess is about to take a commercial flight back to Marina del Rey, California, to the horror of informed Americans
As the New York Times now reports, a woman named "Linda" (we withhold her last name for her own privacy) says she can't wait to get off the ship and take a first class commercial flight back to Marina del Rey, California.
Via the NYT:
Some remained hesitant about whether to take the charter flight. Linda T----oto, 63, a retired retail manager from Marina del Rey, Calif., said she had signed up for the evacuation flight, but changed her mind at the last minute.
Ms. T-----oto stuck a Post-it note on her door reading: "I’m staying." Three military doctors came to her door and advised her to go. Their emphatic tone, she said, was “scary,” but she is standing her ground.
"I’d rather go home first class on United Airlines than a cold, noisy military charter when the Japanese Ministry of Health releases us," she said.
In just two days, the Japanese Ministry of Health will release Linda and thousands of other passengers, who will then proceed to take international flights to cities across the globe. There's no question that many of those people will, of course, be "asymptomatic carriers" of the coronavirus. Their travel back to America, absent any further quarantine measures, places the continental United States at risk of an outbreak.
Utter incompetence of government health authorities will get many of us killed
Every rational, intelligent person knows that a 14-day quarantine doesn't count if you have infected people sharing air with non-infected people, combined with an airborne disease that has a 24-day potential incubation period. Just holding people on a ship for 14 days does absolutely nothing to guarantee that new people weren't infected on day 13, for example.
Note carefully that the infections on the Diamond Princess currently represent about half of all the infections outside China. Clearly, the risk of yet more passengers being symptomless carriers is extremely high, yet health authorities are allowing these individuals to exit the ship in two days and walk right into public airports.
Yes, we feel extremely sorry for those individuals, and they've been through a horrible ordeal as involuntary prisoners in a floating quarantine camp. But until they've spent 24 days completely isolated from other potentially infected individuals, it isn't a real quarantine. It's just what I call "medical theater."
Welcome to the world of "medical theater" where government authorities PRETEND to run quarantines that actually aren't quarantines
So instead of carrying out a real quarantine, we have the theater of a quarantine. It's all being done to try to convince the public that really powerful, intelligent people who know what they're doing are in charge and protecting us from germs. Yet, in reality, it's being run by clueless, incompetent bureaucrats who seem to have little understanding of the very basic principles of how infectious disease spreads.
Sadly, we will all have to pay the price for their incompetence since it only takes 4-5 infected people to set off a sustained human-to-human outbreak in any given nation. It looks like that day will soon arrive for many nations far beyond China, thanks to Japanese health authorities earning an "F" in basic medical science.
Perhaps our world will revert back to the belief systems of five centuries earlier when no one believed in the existence of germs, and everybody just pretended that angry gods (or whatever) caused infectious disease.

naturalnews--2020-02-16--Chinese scientists conclude "killer coronavirus probably originated from a laboratory in Wuhan"

( Natural News ) For weeks there has been speculation that , because of growing evidence it has rapidly spread beyond the Chinese government ’ s ability to contain it , the Wuhan coronavirus ( COVID-19 ) was actually part of a military weapons program .

Chinese scientists conclude “killer coronavirus probably originated from a laboratory in Wuhan”
For weeks there has been speculation that, because of growing evidence it has rapidly spread beyond the Chinese government’s ability to contain it, the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) was actually part of a military weapons program.
Now, there appears to be some confirmation that the virus, while perhaps not a ‘weapon,’ per se, was indeed manufactured, and this revelation comes on the heels of a White House request to ask scientists to probe the origin of the disease.
AS ABC News reported earlier this month, the Trump administration directed U.S. scientists and medical researchers to find out more about where the virus actually came from as rumors spread over the Internet that it could be the result of some nefarious Chinese plan.
The network reported:
The director of the White House's Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), in a letter to the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, requested that scientific experts "rapidly" look into the origins of the virus in order to address both the current spread and "to inform future outbreak preparation and better understand animal/human and environmental transmission aspects of coronaviruses.”
While there are no indications the White House believed the reports of a weaponized virus, clearly there was enough concern among officials to find out if China — and, by default, the rest of the world — was dealing with something other than a hypersonic version of the ‘flu.’
Shortly thereafter, Sen. Tom Cotton, (R-Ark.), a former Army infantry officer and combat veteran, also suggested that “maybe the coronavirus was manmade.”
According to a paper by a pair of Chinese scientists — who, according to Harvard To The Big House — have since deleted their online profiles, it appears as though the virus may indeed have been ‘manufactured.’
According to a pre-print of the research paper published by Botao Xiao and Lei Xiao titled, "The possible origins of 2019-nCoV coronavirus,” “In summary, somebody was entangled with the evolution of 2019-nCoV coronavirus. In addition to origins of natural recombination and intermediate host, the killer coronavirus probably originated from a laboratory in Wuhan.”
A smoking gun conclusion if there ever was one.
Ground Zero for the outbreak near China’s only top-level virology lab
The report and its conclusions, according to Harvard To The Big House, “is the product of a collaboration between a retired professional scientist” with more than three decades’ worth of experience in genome sequencing and analysis, who also helped design “several…bioinformatic software tools,” as well as a former NSA counterterrorism analyst.
The researchers attempt to determine if the Wuhan coronavirus is simply the result of a naturally emergent mutation (from an animal to humans) “against the possibility that it may be a bioengineered strain meant for defensive immunotherapy protocols that was released into the public,” most probably by mistake or accident. That’s possible, the researchers note, because “China’s rate of occupational accidents is about ten-times higher than America’s, and some twenty-times more than Europe’s,” the only other regions on the planet where there are high-level virology laboratories.
Initially, it was reported that the current strain may have mutated to humans from bats, but as the researchers noted, the outbreak began in late December when most of the Wuhan region’s bat species are in hibernation.
Also, the Chinese horseshoe bat’s habitat is massive — covering a region filled with scores of cities and hundreds of millions of people. And yet, ground zero for the outbreak happened to be close to the only BSL-4 virology lab in China, which is located in Wuhan City, home to 11 million people.
Notably, the lab “was staffed with at least two Chinese scientists – Zhengli Shi and Xing-Yi Ge – both virologists who had previously worked at an American lab which already bio-engineered an incredibly virulent strain of bat coronavirus,” Harvard To The Big House noted.
In short, Wuhan coronavirus may not be a bioweapon but it certainly appears not to have simply occurred naturally.
