POPSGarlic can help prevent colds, evidence indicates More: While many people opt for garlic supplements, others prefer to increase the garlic in their diets. Many home chefs mistakenly cook garlic immediately after crushing or chopping it, says Dr. David W. Kraus, associate professor of environmental science and biology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. To maximize the health benefits, you should crush the garlic at room temperature and allow it to sit for about 15 minutes. That triggers an enzyme reaction that boosts the healthy compounds in garlic.

POPSBacteria Have Role in Swine Flu Deaths Earlier CDC reports found that H1N1 swine flu deaths tended to be caused by direct infection of the lungs with the new flu bug. That may have caused doctors to let down their guard against bacterial infections in flu patients. the CDC now advises doctors who suspect bacterial infections in swine flu patients to treat them with anti-flu drugs and antibiotics. The CDC report carries dramatic examples of H1N1 swine flu deaths with bacterial infections: * A 2-month-old girl, with no known underlying condition, died with pneumococcal infection after an illness of only one day. * A 9-year-old girl with no reported underlying condition died with a strep infection after an illness of six days. * A 34-year-old man with high blood pressure and obesity died with pneumococcal infection after an illness of about three days.

POPSWhere the Worst Germs Lurk I don't know how I survived to this ripe old age. I'm all for much hand washing, but I think we do our children no real favors by not allowing their immune systems to grow a little. Having said that, I know we live in a more crowded environment and people seem to have suspended common sense about proper hygiene. I always use those sanitizers for the grocery carts.

POPSJon Rappaport interviews an ex-vaccine worker "Dr Mark Randall". Q: Now, you worked in labs. Where purity was an issue. A: The public believes that these labs, these manufacturing facilities are the cleanest places in the world. That is not true. Contamination occurs all the time. You get all sorts of debris introduced into vaccines. Q: For example, the SV40 monkey virus slips into the polio vaccine. A: Well yes, that happened. But that's not what I mean. The SV40 got into the polio vaccine because the vaccine was made by using monkey kidneys. But I'm talking about something else. The actual lab conditions. The mistakes. The careless errors. SV40, which was later found in cancer tumors -- that was what I would call a structural problem. It was an accepted part of the manufacturing process. If you use monkey kidneys, you open the door to germs which you don't know are in those kidneys. Full Transcript @ source.

POPSCU study: Showers can spray hot and cold running germs IMHO, this is another attempt to seed panic in society. I mean... who not taking showers? Even more harmful attack than last year's salmonella scare. I not mention swine flu, it's pretty done already. But they urge to keep tensions in public mind. What for now? GOP ruling is over for good... Remember: running water is not contain any significant amount of flora and what it contain is regular common bacteria, which was coexisted with us and even existed long before us. Sure, unless it wasn't allegedly poisoned. But that is another story, my friends...

POPSOh my! Religious Loonys Take to the Air And I thought my governor standing on the steps of the Capital building praying for rain was foolish. It seems the need for vaccines has been vastly overblown. All you need is some devout religious types, some horns and a 747. That'll send those pesky germs a-packing!
