( Natural News ) Achieve relaxation with sound therapy using bowls – but not just ordinary bowls that you can find in the kitchen. Himalayan singing bowls are one of the most popular instruments used in sound therapy. Sound therapy has been used thousands of years ago to achieve a soothing and relaxing effect on the mind, body, and spirit. This kind of therapy uses both sound and vibrations at different frequencies. It is also practiced to improve sleep, eliminate toxins, stimulate circulation, lower blood pressure and heart rate, and enhance recovery from trauma or illness. (Related: De-Stress And Heal Your Body With Sound Therapy .) Also known as Tibetan singing bowls, Himalayan singing bowls originated thousands of years ago in the Himalayas. They were primarily used in monasteries and temples for spiritual ceremonies, meditation, and sound healing therapy. Today, these bowls are still mostly made in India and Nepal. They are available as both pure singing bowls or hand-hammered versions made from an alloy of seven metals, which symbolize the seven planets, days of the week, primary colors, and musical notes. So, how do they work? Himalayan singing bowls work by resonating with a pure, healing sound. On the other hand, hammered bowls produce a special vibration when struck or strummed, hence the term “hammered.” The vibrations created are similar to those of the alpha waves of the brain. The vibrations also oscillate with an energetically high frequency similar to that of the “Om” mantra. Singing and hammered bowls produce a sound that affects the brainwave frequencies as well as help bring the brain into a Theta state within minutes. Theta waves are waves that are present in REM sleep, hypnosis, and deep meditation. Simultaneously, the vibrations produced from the bowls offer a cellular massage. Get CLEAN FOOD […]
( Natural News ) In a move that surprised both Trump supporters and anti-Trump activists alike, a federal judge ruled this week that President Trump can’t legally block Twitter users from viewing his feed on the basis that it is a “designated public forum” and therefore protected by the First Amendment. The judgement comes nearly a year after a group of Trump critics filed a lawsuit, alleging that the President had violated their First Amendment rights by blocking them from reading his tweets. “The @realDonaldTrump account is a kind of digital town hall in which the president and his aides use the tweet function to communicate news and information to the public, and members of the public use the reply function to respond to the president and his aides and exchange views with one another,” the lawsuit said. A team of lawyers from the Justice Department jumped to Donald Trump’s defense, arguing that he had every right to block certain users in the same way that he is allowed to ignore certain individuals when addressing a crowd of people or reporters. However, Manhattan Federal Court Judge Naomi Buchwald disagreed, arguing that the exclusion of certain clients on a public forum was in violation of the First Amendment. Many conservatives and Trump supporters were taken back by the decision, and for good reason. On the surface, it seems as though it’s the president’s rights that are being violated and not the rights of his Twitter followers, because he is essentially being told that he is not allowed to determine who he wants to allow on his own personal Twitter feed. A loss that may lead to a bigger win It’s not all bad, though. As a matter of fact, Chris Menahan of Information Liberation recently argued that Judge Buchwald’s ruling […]
( Natural News ) The ability to implant artificial thoughts, memories, and sensory experiences into people’s brains isn’t that far off , according to new reports. Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley are working on a new technology that they say will one day make it possible to perform virtual brain implants – all from a device that they claim will be small enough to fit into an ordinary backpack. Known as “holographic brain modulation,” the technology involves the use of light to alter brain function, all by projecting holographic images into brain cells. Using advanced technological trickery, these holograms basically fool the brain into thinking that it felt, saw, or sensed something that wasn’t actually there. The flashes of light that the device creates act as tiny control units for operating brain neurons, effectively simulating experiences and life events that never occurred in reality. But the holographic implants make it seem as though they did, and patients would theoretically have no clue one way or another. Researchers say that such technology could be beneficial in helping patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, overcome negative and damaging experiences by artificially replacing them with pleasant ones. Another potential benefit involves helping blind people to “see,” and paralyzed people to “feel touch.” Holographic brain implants have the potential to “imprint” pretty much any type of brain programming that a person wants, whether it be happy memories, positive achievements, and even the erasure of negative memories and experiences.

( Natural News ) You might have heard a lot of acupuncture success stories, but if you’ve ever seriously considered this treatment for yourself, you were likely greeted with a lot of skepticism. Here’s a look at some of the common arguments people make against acupuncture and why they’re way off base. The first and possibly most common way detractors will shoot down your acupuncture aspirations is by saying that it isn’t effective. Their reasoning is usually that it must not work because doctors don’t recommend it. You don’t have to be a brain surgeon to see the huge flaw in this argument: Doctors will by and large recommend the treatments that make them money, and acupuncture isn’t one of them. In fact, this argument is even more baseless when you realize that the solutions they do recommend – namely opiates – aren’t nearly as effective as they claim, and they bring with them a slew of very serious side effects like stroke, liver failure, and gastrointestinal bleeding, not to mention risk of addiction. In a study carried out by Minneapolis VA researchers that was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association , opioids were shown to work no better than non-opioids and over-the-counter drugs at addressing pain. The researchers in that study said that the best options for chronic pain are actually exercise and physical therapy. It’s not a study about acupuncture, but it does show just how little the experts think of drugs when it comes to dealing with pain. Research is often misrepresented Then there’s the problem of research being misrepresented. The biggest example of this is those who claim that studies have shown it to be no more effective than a placebo. The 2005 study people usually cite when making this argument doesn’t […]
Adaptogenic herbs simultaneously calm and energize. Their unique abilities help counteract stress and improve mood, mental clarity, and physical stamina. It’s no secret that stress can make you sick and profoundly impact your mental health and quality of life. It’s thought that stress plays a part in 90% of all illnesses. ( 1 ) But what is a well-kept secret is a group of natural substances, known as adaptogens or adaptogenic herbs , that can neutralize the effects of stress. These herbs are not new; in fact, they’ve been used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. But with so many people searching for ways to minimize the effects of stress on their lives, these herbal remedies are as relevant as ever. Adaptogens have the unique ability to calm you down and increase your energy without being either stimulating or sedative. What Are Adaptogenic Herbs? Adaptogens are herbal remedies that make you more resilient to stress of all kinds — mental, physical, and environmental. They are so named because they help you adapt . To be considered a true adaptogen, an herb must meet these requirements: It must be safe. It must work by reducing your body’s stress response. It must support overall health by helping the body achieve a state of balance known as homeostasis . It must be neither a stimulant nor a sedative. A simple analogy is that adaptogens work like a thermostat. They fine-tune your body to stay in the “Goldilocks zone,” feeling neither overstimulated nor drained, but calmly energized. Adaptogen is not a medically recognized term. ( 2 ) Before the term adaptogen was coined, these substances were usually referred to as tonics . The Dangers of Cortisol and Stress Before we look at specific adaptogenic herbs you can use, it’s […]
( Natural News ) Neuroscience may have finally figured out the part of the brain that drives people to shop, hoard, and even steal items. In an article from Science Daily , Korean researchers identified the neurons that caused “object craving” in mice. Children, compulsive hoarders, and kleptomaniacs all love to receive and get objects. It’s natural for the first example, but the other two cases are disruptive and suffer from mental disorders. Science has not yet come up with an explanation as to why the brain is driven to chase items or objects. But neuroscientist Daesoo Kim believed a certain neural circuit in the hypothalamus is connected with this natural drive. (Related: Neuroscientists look at brain stimulation as an alternative treatment for depression .) This collection of neurons are connected to “object craving,” explained Kim, who is a member of the Department of Biological Sciences at the Korea Advanced Institute of Technology (KAIST). The KAIST research team studied the brain activity of mice that were playing with toys. They detected significant activity in certain neurons of the animals’ hypothalamus during playtime. Stimulating brain circuits triggers mice’s possessive, hunting behaviors The researchers used optogenetics – a technique where light is used to control living cells – to show that these neurons controlled obsessive behavior towards objects that aren’t food. Kim said that stimulating this brain circuit in the hypothalamus excited mice into pursuing an object relentlessly.

Nootropics, also referred as cognitive enhancers and smart drugs are supplements, drugs and other substances utilized to improve cognition, concentration and basic functioning of human brain. These enhancers are made up of natural extracts which are beneficial for executive functions, particularly creativity, memory and motivation, in healthy individuals. The enhancers also include multivitamins, caffeine and other substances under Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) category prescribed by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and therefore, nootropics are considered as essentially dietary supplements. Although, nootropics have been around since 1970s, and started gaining traction when popularized by biohackers as a brain-fog and stress level reducing marvel. Nootropics are specifically engineered to help consumer’s mind and body to perform optimally. Nootropics help in improving the mood and boosting an individual’s energy levels, increases focus and feelings of mental clarity. Furthermore, nootropics also promotes restful and deep sleep, improved cellular health, anti-aging benefits and also helps in feeling better for the entire day. The benefits offered by smart drugs for enhancing brain function is further projected to witness growth over the forecast period. Sample Brochure Enlightening the New Advancement and Future Prospects @ www.xpodenceresearch.com/Request-Sample/105876 Nootropics also claim promising benefits which include motivation, focus and memory boosting and has been supported by research. Nootropic is repackaged and sold to overachievers at the academic and professional level aiming to enhance their brain function. Increasing population of depression and emotional and mood disorder globally is expected to positively lead to the acceptance and developments of the smart drug in the industry. Furthermore, increasing number of self-directed consumers, strong desire to enhance the brain function among the adult population, and the high penetration of promotional activities carried by the industry players are also influencing the market demand positively. The company’s manufacturing nootropics are promoting the smart drug as […]
( Natural News ) A hand grip may be a normal, everyday thing for men and women alike but a recent study showed that the strength of a handshake can indicate a person’s brain health. Using the data of 475,397 people from the general population in the U.K., and 1,162 participants who were diagnosed with schizophrenia, researchers discovered that grip strength is connected to the performance of the visual memory and reaction time of a person. This study has been proven in two groups where one has participants over 55 years old and the other has participants younger than 55. Aside from visual memory and reaction time, tests conducted during the research also included examinations for reasoning, prospective memory and number memory. According to Dr. Joseph Firth, an Honorary Research Fellow at The University of Manchester and Research Fellow at NICM Health Research Institute at Western Sydney University , people who are stronger tend to have better functioning brains, particularly when age, gender, body weight and education are taken into account. The cross-sectional analysis was done between 2007 and 2010 using the baseline assessment for the UK Biobank . As part of the test, participants were categorized for more focused studies and results; those with records of non-affective disorders were tested separately from those with no history of mental illnesses. A hand grip strength measurement test was done using a hydraulic hand dynamometer. The results were then assessed using data from their dominant hand. Meanwhile, five different cognitive exams were given to check the performances of a person’s cognitive domains. Researchers admitted that there was a limitation when it came to participants with schizophrenia as some of them did not finish the tests, but still, they have found huge correlations between muscular strength and brain function.

( Natural News ) In Alameda, California, workers of the nonprofit group The Ocean Cleanup are assembling the components of a massive machine that will collect plastic trash from the ocean. An article on Fast Company states that the device will be towed to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch during the summer of 2018. The revolutionary machine is the brainchild of Boyan Slat. He came up with the idea in 2012 after hearing it would take nearly 80,000 years to clean up 1.8 trillion pieces of ocean plastics. Gathering plastic trash with nets was considered futile since there was so much of the garbage spread through the water. Furthermore, the plastics are always in motion due to the action of ocean currents. (Related: EU sets a 70 percent recycling target for waste by 2020, starts by designing a modified bacteria that lives off plastic .) The 18 year-old Slat suggested working with the currents instead of against them. Setting up barrier in the water would speed up plastic collection, making it easy to pull them out of the water for recycling. While experts scoffed at him, Slat dropped out of university and founded The Ocean Cleanup. The organization raised millions to create the technology for his plastic collector. Ocean plastic collector is massive yet simple and won’t endanger marine life The Ocean Cleanup said it will come back from the North Pacific Gyre by the end of 2018 with its first harvest of ocean plastics and concrete proof that its plastic collector works. The nonprofit expected its first unit will be able to harvest 5,000 kilograms each month.

Struggling to focus throughout your workday? You’re not alone. We live in a world of never-ending distractions, making it harder to concentrate for long periods of time. However, a few simple changes to your morning routine can significantly boost your cognitive functioning. As a neuroscientist, these are the habits that I try to follow each day in order to operate at peak mental performance. Here’s a step-by-step guide to a morning routine that’s kind to your brain. Step 1: prioritize getting eight hours of sleep Researchers estimate that the average American slept between eight and nine hours a night in the 1960s. Now, the American Sleep Association puts that figure closer to six hours and 40 minutes. That simply isn’t enough for you to function at your peak (although, interestingly, nine hours is likely to be too much for some people). You should aim to get between seven and eight hours of shut-eye since any less will likely impact on your pituitary function, which regulates crucial hormones governing your appetite, mood, alertness , and eventually your overall resilience. Of course, you won’t always be able to get a great night’s sleep every night, but having a consistent target to aim for is an important first step. Step 2: Hydrate first thing, and don’t mask it with caffeine Ever have that groggy feeling when you wake up, and decide to remedy it by downing a double espresso? That’s actually the worst thing you can do for your brain and body first thing in the morning. When you’re still feeling tired after getting up, you’re probably dehydrated, and a high-caffeine pick-me-up acts as a diuretic, sapping even more water from your body. Instead, start your day with a glass of water, a big mug of hot water and lemon, or a […]
( Natural News ) Do you find yourself with an urge to yawn after seeing someone else do it? If you do, you’re not alone. In an article on Newswise , a psychologist from the Texas A&M College of Medicine explains that these so-called “contagious yawns” are something people share with other animals species and explains why these are so contagious . According to Dr. Meredith Williamson, a psychologist and clinical assistant professor at Texas A&M , scientists previously believed that yawning is an indication of a need for sleep. However, today, they think that it can communicate a shift in alertness to boredom. A yawn is a way for the body to get a fresh supply of oxygen. Yawning is commonly done by stressed people or athletes whenever they need to be alert. Although researchers still do not fully understand why yawns are contagious, they have come up with a few theories. One well-known theory on why yawning is contagious is that it is associated with empathy. People who have greater levels of empathy are more likely to yawn more frequently when someone else yawns compared to someone who has lower empathy levels, or someone with a mental disorder. According to Williamson, research has shown that yawning may not be as contagious to people with autism or schizophrenia. A 2013 study found that when children with autism focused their gaze on people’s mouths instead of their eyes, they were more likely to experience a contagious yawn. This suggested that facial expressions and social cues may be more of a factor than empathy. Get more news like this without being censored : Get the Natural News app for your mobile devices.

When it comes to improving brain power, there is no single food that can warrant a sharp brain as you age. Nutrition experts emphasize the important role of healthy dietary patterns that have a lot of brain-friendly fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes. Make sure that your daily meals are covered by these brain-boosting foods. This article lists 10 out of amazing foods that boost your brain power. 10 Amazing Foods That Boost Your Brain Power 1. Blueberries Blueberries have numerous health benefits, including brain boosting. According to a study carried out by scientists at Tufts University in the U.S, consuming blueberries might be helpful in improving or delaying the temporary memory loss. Blueberries, as well as other deeply colored berries, have anthocyanins, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Antioxidants work against both inflammation and oxidative stress, which are cornerstones of nearly all brain degenerative problems. Some antioxidants in blueberries can help improve the communication between brain cells. Thus, you had better add them to your smoothies or sprinkle them on your breakfast meals. 2. Turmeric Turmeric is a deep-yellow spice which has a lot of benefits for the human brain. Thank the key active ingredient named curcumin, turmeric has been shown to directly go into the brain and benefits brain cells. Furthermore, curcumin has potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which help benefit memory, relieve depression, and promote the growth of new brain cells. To harness the benefits of curcumin, you should add turmeric to you daily dishes or make turmeric tea. 3. Pumpkin Seeds Containing powerful antioxidants, pumpkin seeds have an ability to protect the brain and body from the damage of free radicals. Also, they are a powerhouse of iron, zinc, copper or magnesium. These nutrients are very important for the brain health. Zinc and copper are […]
( Natural News ) Across the pond, one brave man is speaking out about a sudden spike in health problems he believes are related to LED streetlamps that purportedly emit 5G radiation. In Gateshead, a town in Northern England, citizens are reporting an array of disturbing side effects including insomnia, nosebleeds and even stillbirth — and Mark Steele has something to say about it . Steele, 58, is a local resident in Gateshead and reportedly is a member of the IEEE , an organization which describes itself as “the world’s largest technical professional organisation dedicated to advancing technology for the benefit of humanity.” He is doing his best to raise awareness about the threat posed by the new LED street lamps, which were installed back in 2016. Steele says that a number of people have been suffering with nosebleeds, insomnia and other neurological problems since the lights were put in place. But the horror doesn’t end there: Multiple women have lost their babies since that time. In his own circle of friends, Steele explains, three women have lost babies — one of which was born with severe defects and survived just a few hours after birth. “We are seeing babies dying in the womb as these transmitters are situated outside people’s bedroom windows. It’s a humanitarian crisis,” Steele reportedly commented. Dangers of EMF radiation on the rise Though the science on EMF radiation is still far from established, many researchers believe that it does indeed have the potential to cause harm. EMF radiation is the same kind of radiation produced by cell phones, though it can be emitted from other devices — including LED streetlights, according to Professor Ulrich Warnke, from the University of Saarland .

( Natural News ) Consumption of excess sugar has been linked to various health concerns like cancer, diabetes, and obesity, and now another study has revealed that sugar consumption can affect childhood cognition . The study, which was published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine , examined the side effects of consuming larger quantities of sugary drinks and foods, focusing on the cognitive development of children whose mothers had too much sugary diets during pregnancy. The research team posited that pregnant women and new mothers who regularly consumed sugary diets could be jeopardizing their children’s proper development. The study also revealed that there is a possibility that the consumption of excess sugar could be the culprit behind poor childhood cognition. According to the study, the children whose mothers consumed sugary diets during pregnancy were born with impaired cognitive abilities and speech functions, compared with their peers. Even drinking diet soda instead of regular soda had negative effects on the development of children. The researchers observed that based on the effects of the consumption of sugary drinks, the “diet” versions of drinks and food products are actually worse for our health than those which contain real sugar. This only confirms the dangers of various sugar substitutes . For example, the artificial sweetener Splenda can damage gut microbiota and suppress thyroid function. On the other hand, the study confirmed that consuming fruits and other foods that contain natural fructose helped improve childhood cognition. For instance, children who regularly consumed fresh fruits had better cognitive scores.

The old idea of stuffy meetings in boarded up rooms is becoming a thing of the past. While bosses used to think that distractions – even windows – kept employees and attendees from focusing, a host of new studies prove that the opposite is true. How nature can heal Greater Good magazine reported: "In one recent experiment conducted in Japan, participants were assigned to walk either in a forest or in an urban center. Results showed that those who walked in forests had significantly lower heart rates and higher heart rate variability (indicating more relaxation and less stress), and reported better moods and less anxiety, than those in urban settings." A tech break We live in a society, especially business environments, that can only be described as "sensory overload." We have 24-hour connectivity and mind-bending amounts of information at our fingertips. But many scientists believe our brains were not made for this kind of information bombardment, with the result that we often feel overwhelmed and burned out. The antidote? "Attention restoration" is needed to get back to a normal, healthy state, as reported by Greater Good . Researcher David Strayer, of the University of Utah, believes that being in nature restores our depleted attention circuits, which can then reenergize the creative parts of our brains. Creativity flourishes "If you’ve been using your brain to multitask – as most of us do most of the day – and then you set that aside and go on a walk, without all of the gadgets, you’ve let the prefrontal cortex recover," says researcher David Strayer, of the University of Utah. "And that’s when we see these bursts in creativity, problem-solving, and feelings of well-being." Yet another study, as reported by the Huffington Post, says that the more you get away from the […]

( Natural News ) If you find out you have breast cancer, your first instinct might be to get rid of it using whatever means possible. Having a mastectomy isn’t a decision any woman takes lightly, of course, but, for many, the idea of sacrificing your breast to be cancer-free seems like a fair trade to make. Unfortunately, however, having a mastectomy isn’t the end of many women’s breast cancer story – and for some, it’s just the beginning. In fact, breast cancer patients are actually more likely to see their cancer return and spread in the first year and a half after getting a mastectomy or having their tumor removed along with healthy surrounding tissue. Now, a study by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has found that it’s actually the healing process of the surgical scar that is causing women’s breast cancer to recur after surgery. It’s a complicated mechanism that has to do with your immune system, whose default mode is stopping the spread of cancer. While healing from a mastectomy, these healing forces are distracted from their job of stemming the spread of cancer and forced to focus on getting the wound closed up instead, preventing infections, spurring the growth of blood vessels, and promoting repair. In other words, they’re simply too busy to keep cancer cells from spreading to other body parts . It’s this wound response that allows disseminated cancer cells to then grow and thrive , forming tumors in other areas of the patient’s body such as the lungs, liver and brain. In many cases, this can be even more dangerous than the original breast tumor, which is a very scary prospect indeed.

Nootropics are everywhere today as people aim to increase their mental energy and focus. Pramiracetam is one of the revolutionary nootropics out there. It is in a class of its own because it has the unique ability to boost the performance of other nootropics. It is a racetam-class supplement that is 5 – 30 times more powerful than its synthetic cousin, piracetam. It is widely known for its unrivaled ability to improve concentration, memory, sensory perception, and learning capacities. Moreover, it can prevent general cognitive decline and memory loss since it functions as a neuroprotective agent. But what’s so special about it? How does it achieve all this? The Nuts and Bolts of Pramiracetam Like every other nootropic, you ’ ll come across out there, Pramiracetam has its own secrets for being an effective mental capacity boosting agent. Firstly, it influences the release of neurotransmitters, which enable the transmission of signals between nerve cells. Consequently, it enhances the development of new memories as well as reference to older ones. You can see how this makes it possible for one to retain new information and recall that which one already has. Furthermore, Pramiracetam increases activity in the hippocampus (the part of the brain that deals with the creation and reservation of short-term and long-term memory), which influences the movement of blood through the brain. The brain functions mostly with oxygen, blood, and water. Three-quarters of the brain is liquid, and that’s where water comes in. The brain receives oxygen through blood since blood is the agent that’s used to transport oxygen throughout the body. That’s why exercising boosts mental performance because it forces you to take in more oxygen and makes the heart beat faster; therefore, sending more blood to the brain and increasing the amount of oxygen the brain […]
Have you ever prepared endlessly for a test and found yourself forgetting important formulas and equations when you’re sitting in the actual exam? This becomes more pronounced as we grow older, because our minds are filled with more distractions and more stress, and our brain matter starts to deteriorate. Healthy body, healthy mind While we often consider the health of our minds and our bodies separately, the fact is that our body has a direct role in the health and performance of our mind. Here’s how: Inflammation, that helps counter infections and heals your body from injuries, also comes with its fair share of problems: anxiety, hypertension, multiple sclerosis and so on. It may surprise you that your body’s inflammation and immune responses are manipulated by the gut. Moreover, the hormones released in the gut also impact your brain’s cognitive functions such as processing and understanding new information. Before you start thinking about some miracle medicine to fire up your physiology in order to boost your memory, here are some natural nutritious foods that could give you the same results at a fraction of the cost of prescription medication: Avocado Avocados are one of the healthiest fruits around – they may take some flak for a large amount of fat they contain, but worry not – these are monounsaturated fats that are actually good for your skin and blood sugar! But, to the point of memory improvement, avocados contain folate and vitamin K; both of these nutrients prevent the clotting of blood in your brain which in turn minimizes the risk of stroke and enhances memory and concentration. Moreover, avocados also pack loads of vitamin B and C, and the lowest sugar and highest protein content for any fruit – in other words, they’re good to fill your stomach […]
( Natural News ) The Natural News YouTube channel has been taken down – this time because we dared to discuss natural cannabis medicine. YouTube has devolved into a tool of censorship, and Big Pharma is taking advantage of it, banning video channels that discuss natural medicine. YouTube is specifically targeting a video on the healing potential of cannabis oil, which is liberating more and more people from various pharmaceuticals that don’t work but do cause more harm. YouTube shut off the Natural News Health channel with a single strike, all because a 43-second video described the healing potential of CBD oil. In a letter to the Health Ranger, YouTube claimed that the video on cannabis oil was subjecting viewers to “risk of serious physical harm or death.” Any talk about healing cancer without chemotherapy and radiation is dangerous, subjecting people to violent truths that they must be shielded from. In reality, patients are suffering under needless chemotherapy treatments. Equally important, you’re right to learn about the devastating effects of chemotherapy and the benefits of cannabis oil no longer exist on YouTube, because Big Pharma doesn’t want the discussion to take place, for the truth to get out. View the screenshots of the YouTube’s insidious strike here and check out the “dangerous” video that got the Health Ranger channel banned. Here’s the “offensive” text from the video: A 52-year-old terminal cancer patient turned to cannabis oil after all chemotherapy treatments failed. Two years later, her stomach cancer is in complete remission. Doctors initially told her she had just six weeks to live. Today, the woman is living a happy, healthy, productive life. “Cannabis oil should be legalized for medical purposes — people are dying and the chemotherapy isn’t curing them,” she says.
