Health News Digest
“The Wake Forest University Translational Science Institute … will host a national conference to assess best current practices as well as future directions of electronic health records (EHRs). … The adoption of EHRs is emerging as an issue of national importance. A June report in the New England Journal of Medicine, as reported by the New York Times, ‘found that doctors who use electronic health records say overwhelmingly that such records have helped improve the quality and timeliness of care. Yet fewer than one in five of the nation’s doctors has started using such records.’ The conference will be held Oct. 1-3, 2008, at the Graylyn International Conference Center, Winston-Salem, NC. For further information, see the website.” (posted 09/23/08)

The American Association for Health Freedom (AAHF) is leading a campaign to reform the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We ask you to join with us in signing the Reform FDA Petition presented below. This petition will be delivered to Congress. Late last year, the US government released a 60 page report entitled: FDA Science and Mission at Risk. A more honest title would have been: FDA Science and Mission in Shambles. (See link to sign petition.)

Health Freedom
“It’s not too late to help us make a difference. In the past two weeks we have hit Congress hard. Thousands of our members have written their House representative in support of a resolution that calls upon the FDA to stop their new policy of restricting women’s access to prescriptions containing estriol. The American Association for Health Freedom (AAHF) ran a full-page ad in Roll Call supporting H. Con. Res. 342 and highlighting the hypocrisy of Wyeth. … We’re pleased to announce that the Senate has now introduced Senate Concurrent Resolution 88 — a companion resolution to H. Con. Res. 342. Slightly different than the House resolution, the Senate resolution adds the language “unless the FDA holds a public comment period on the issue and can document evidence of adverse events and other safety issues to justify such policy.’” (06/11/08)

Part 1, ‘Curing Cancer,’ deals with the failings of conventional cancer treatments and shows how conventional medicine wildly — and deceptively — exaggerates the benefits of treatments, while minimizing the risks. … Part 2, ‘Healing Cancer,’ shows how cancer can be successfully healed with dietary treatments and natural supplementation. … It also discusses supplementation and why attitude is important in reversing not only cancer, but any disease.
