Advances in bio technology are making it so that experts are declaring that a person born today may live to see 150 and that soon we’ll see people living up to 1,000 or more.

That was all predicted by many scientists over the decades but nowadays with such breakthrough technologies such as stem cell treatments, that scientists say that today a child born will reach 150 in optimum conditions but in just a few decades the first person born who’ll live to be 1,000 will arrive.

Dr. Aubrey De Grey, the biomedical gerontologist and chief scientist feels that soon we’ll be able to vanquish all diseases. He wants to see medical control over aging within the next 25 years.

Another story that is too weird to believe.

A man giving a lecture about heart disease actually helped save a man who had a heart attack during the lecture.

Dr. William Phillips, a cardiologist from Maine, was giving a lecture about heart disease when he and others in the audience were interrupted by a man who was actually having a heart attack. The quick thinking doctor and a team of nurses rushed to the man’s side and are credited with saving his life.

It was about to happen, as there were questions regarding the safety of the airport body scanners, and now a story emerges claiming that cancer rates to TSA workers operating the devices has risen.

According to this report, the TSA has been caught covering up the rise in cancer cases of TSA workers who operate these devices. The information was gathered from FOIA or Freedom Of Information Act documents that were acquired by the Electronic Privacy Information Center.

It was the Union for the workers in Boston that noticed the rise in cancer rates amongst their workers and then the TSA tried to avoid the issue by not issuing dosimeters to the workers to test for the measure of levels of exposure. That’s like not giving firefighters, firefighting gear.

The benefits of meditation have been found to be quite valid with results stating that the practice can cut heart attack and stroke risks and deaths by upwards of 50%.

Not only that but it has been shown to reduce high blood pressure, cholesterol, thickening of the artries and even the ravages of diabetes.

Dr. Norman Rosenthal from the National Institute of Mental Health stated, “This is a seminal finding,” and added, “The prevention of heart attack and stroke and actual lengthening of lifespan by alternative treatment method is exceedingly rare if not unprecedented.”

It was at the Medical College of Wisconsin that followed 201 men and women averaging around 59 years of age who’d been suffering from narrowing of the arteries in their hearts for a period of around nine years or so.

The group was split in half with some doing meditation.

There was a song out in the 1980′s by the punk rock legend Jello Biafra called “Isotope Soap” and that’s what residents of Japan might be singing as it now turns up that some of them are urinating excess radiation.

The Japan Times is saying that an excess of 3 milisieverts of radiation has been detected in the urine of 15 residents of the Fukushima area village of Iiatate as well as the town of Kawamata.

This confirms the internal radiation and what’s scary is that these towns are 30 to 40 kilometers from the Fukushima nuclear power plant!

An experiment in the UK has shown what those who suffered from Diabetes 2 were able to be off their medication in just a few weeks by doing something as simple as changing their caloric intake.

The study showed that those participants who kept to a 600 calorie a day diet were able to recover from the illness and some tossed away their medication. A year and a half later after the test, most were reportedly free of the disease.

Type 2 Diabetes is often and rightly so associated with excess fat. Processed foods, and other fast digesting foods. The shedding of excess pounds often leads to the disease being more treatable or gone altogether.
