World-renownedProfessor (Dr) A K Susheela presently visiting Australia Warnson Fluoride Link to

Miscarriages,Stillbirths and Retardation.

FEDERALMINISTER FOR HEALTH& AGEING

Quote "Sadly, 1 in every 4 pregnancies ends in a loss frommiscarriage and stillbirth"

According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, therewere more than 2,900 perinatal deaths in Australia. In addition, each year manymore parents experience the loss of a baby early in the pregnancy. Sadly, one in every four pregnancies ends in a lossfrom miscarriage and stillbirth. http://www.sandsvic.org.au 

Professor (Dr) A.K. Susheela who is visiting Australiasays long-term studies show fluoride is a serious threat to public health. Ithas not only has been linked to increased rates of stillbirth and miscarriagesamong Indian populations exposed to fluoride in water, but poses a serious riskof birth abnormalities including mental retardation.

Professor (Dr) A.K. Susheela of India, who hasresearched fluoride for more than 20 years, has listed a range of health issueslinked to fluoride ingestion, she has more than 80 scientific publications in leadingWestern and Indian Journals.

Dr Susheela says the studies have shownfluoride destroysmuscle structure and muscle function, depletes muscle energy; destroys the boneand teeth, red blood cells, blood vessels and the lining of the stomach andintestine.

“We nowhave ample scientific evidence to substantiate the fact that ingestion offluoride prevents biosynthesis of hemoglobin leading to anemia in human beings.We have studied this problem in pregnant mothers. The danger of anemia inpregnancy is that it would lead to abnormalities in the development of theembryo/foetus,” says Dr Susheela.

“Studies also indicate it harms fetuses carried bypregnant women and may cause abortions and stillbirths.”

Dr Susheela says results of reducing fluoride in waterinclude reduced abortions and stillbirths as fluoride is known to inducecalcification of blood vessels of the fetus.

“It has been shown that when fluoride-contaminated water (>1.0 mg/L)and dental products are consumed or used by pregnant mothers, it destroys thethyroid gland of the embryo/foetus,” says Dr Susheela.

“When children with dental fluorosis wereinvestigated, there were severe derangements in the thyroid hormone levels T3(Triiodothyronine) and T4 (Tetraiodothyronine) along with Thyroid StimulatingHormone (TSH). Such children suffer from sub-clinical hypothyroidism, T3toxicosis, low T3 syndrome, primary hypothyroidism and disturbed hormoneconversion.

 “Thyroidhormone defects results in mental retardation (low IQ) in children, deafmutism, knock-knee, bow-leg and cretinism.”

DrSusheela says the results of the studies on women ingesting fluoride werereported at the 27^th Conference of the International Society forFluoride Research, Beijing, China, Oct. 2007. The study is: Fluoride Ingestionand Health Hazards with Focus on Anaemia in Pregnancy and low birth weightbabies:  Guidelines for rectification:  Susheela A.K, Mondal NK,Rashmi G, Ganesh Kamala, Bhasin Shammi, Gupta Gunjan.

“The evidences we have provided on the harmful effects of fluoride onhuman health, unequivocally prove the point that fluoride is disease-causingand not disease preventing. Our scientific publications would not only standthe test of time but also before any judiciary in any part of the world, as itis based on biomedical research of highest standards,” says Dr Susheela.

“With a high degree of scientific accuracy andcertainty, I conclude that artificial fluoridation of drinking water is anineffective means of improving dental health, and is in fact quite dangerous tothose forced to consume it.”

In regard to claims by Australian health authoritiesthat water fluoridation strengthens teeth surfaces and prevents dental caries(cavities), Dr Susheela’s research indicates the opposite.

“The findings emerging from the studies on both toothand bone have made significant contributions to negate the belief that fluorideis good for teeth. Instead, fluoride does more damage to teeth than any goodand prolonged use of fluoride leads to a decrease in the organic matrix ofrabbit tooth but dermatan sulphate content is increased,” says Dr Susheela.

Dr Susheela says India launched a Technology Missionon "Safe Drinking Water" in 1986 (now re-designated after the latePrime Minister Sh. Rajiv Gandhi, as Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking WaterMission) in which every drinking water source in the rural sector is checkedfor water quality, especially for fluoride.

“People are keen to defluoridate the water due togastrointestinal problems and are adopting indigenous technology for obtainingpotable (defluoridated) water,” she said.

“Substantial scientific evidence has emerged in recentyears from studies conducted on human subjects and hospital patients and thoseresiding in areas/regions/villages where fluoride content ranges in drinkingwater from 0.5 ppm to 38.5 ppm,” said Dr Susheela.

She said the findings came after 20 years of follow-upstudies that have now been concluded. The findings also included:

·               Gastro-intestinal complaints arethe earliest manifestations of fluoride toxicity and fluorosis. The most commoncomplaints include (1) headache; (2) nausea (loss of appetite); (3) pain in thestomach; (4) gas formation in the stomach (bloated feeling); (5) constipation;(6) intermittent fermentation diarrhea.

·               As a result of the above, gastrointestinal complaints in endemic areas are considered as early warning signs ofthe fluoride toxicity and are used as a diagnostic parameter under field basedconditions. See report: Fluoride Ingestion and its Correlation withGastrointestinal Discomfort.

·               Fluoride in circulation has anaffinity to get deposited in tissues rich in calcium although some amount isexcreted. In children, the fluoride ingested has adverse effects on kidneyfunction. See Fluoride: Too Much Can Cripple You.

·               Significant findings emerged fromstudies on human patients with skeletal fluorosis. Degenerative changes werewell defined at the ultrastructural level in the fluoresced muscle obtainedfrom patients with skeletal fluorosis.

·               Fluoride inhibits antibodyformation in rabbits and may occur in human subjects as well.

·               Fluoride inhibits protein and DNAsynthesis in cultured lymphocytes.

“I am absolutely certain that largenumbers of persons all around the world are suffering from fluoride toxicity,to one degree or other,” said Dr Susheela.

Dr Susheela isexecutive director, of the Fluorosis Research and Rural Development Foundationin India, Professor of Anatomy (Histocytochemistry)and Chief of the Fluoride and Fluorosis Research Laboratories, at the All IndiaInstitute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi.

Her post-doctoral training was under Lord Walton(Neurologist) of U.K. and Dr. Ade Milhorut of the Muscle Institute, New York,USA, (no longer exists).

Report from FLUORIDE RESEARCH on Water Fluoridation &Crime in the United States of America

If water fluoridation were ended, it might take a generationfor the effects to recede.

If it continues to expand, the “signal” identified in thisstudy may get lost in the “noise” of endemic violence.

CAREER – Have you allowed yourself to carry too much ‘on your back’, to do too much, to manage too many projects? It is time to step back in order to move forward smoothly this time, one step at the time! Indispensible people are filling cemeteries. Do your work the best you can while allowing equilibrium in your life. Relax and enjoy your journey on this planet!

LOVE – This month, you are mastering an old repetitive challenge in regards to relationships. You are now able to observe that recurring pattern and today, you are capable to react differently by making other choices. Well done!

FAMILY – Finally!… you open your eyes and start seeing your Past as a precious jewel that shaped you. Look at all the challenges you solved and how strong you are today!

WEALTH – ‘Ask and you shall receive.’ Ask for something specific and see how fast the Universe presents it to you on one of its ‘gold platter’. Be reassured. YES, it is for you! Grasp those great opportunities with both hands!

YOU – ‘You are so beautiful!’ When did you remind yourself last? A little exercise for this month: at least once a week, go out in the garden, protect yourself (for ex. put a halo of white light all around you), then with your bare feet in the grass connect with the ‘Earth’ to re-charge your batteries; simultaneously open briefly your crown chakra and let the ‘Heaven’ energy go through your spine from the top of your head down to your feet. Close off this connection a few moments later, when you are ready. Wash your hands and face with clear water. Feel good.

HELP – A plethora of helpers are coming your way. Humans, angels, guides, God. all of them! They are definitely present around you in the next few weeks. So, what are you waiting for? They are here to help – so. DELEGATE!

CHILDREN – Become the child you forgot you could be! Look how a seed is growing – this seed can be an idea, your child, a new creation. Become passionate about it, this is what you were longing for: passion and excitement.

STUDY, OPENNESS – Interestingly enough, the key word ‘Fertility’ that was in January’s predictions and is back again in February! This month is very ‘fertile’ for those who were challenged with pregnancies in the past. For others, loads of ideas are crowding your head, write them down on your notepad and take action to see them ‘come to life’.

SELF CONFIDENCE – Feeling a bit lonely and grumpy at times? Go out in nature and
e x e r c i s e to boost those happy hormones!

A little surprise for you, these Feb 2010 predictions are illustrated In a short video Clip on
“FengShuiSteps” YouTube Channel – Enjoy!

The story, which appeared in the program’s news bulletin, highlighted the 4,444 people who falsely tested negative or inconclusive for bowel cancer when using defective Government-issued screening tests between May and December 2009. The news bulletin incorrectly featured vision of an Australian-developed bowel screening test manufactured by Enterix (Australia) and marketed as Inform (now known as InSure). This is the second time the station has incorrectly aired vision of the Inform test in relation to faulty test kits; the first during the Government recall in May 2009.

The InSure bowel screening test is a safe, reliable, Australian-made test that is independent of the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program.

According to Ms Judy Readman, General Manager of Enterix (Australia), the incorrect vision aired this morning has caused considerable alarm among doctors, pharmacists and patients who have recommended or used the bowel screening test manufactured by Enterix.

“Since footage of the Inform test aired this morning, our customer service lines have been inundated with calls from people concerned that they could unwittingly be living with bowel cancer.

“The InSure test, available from GPs and pharmacies nationwide, has been proven to be a very effective screening test,” said Ms Readman.

“We have tested its accuracy in many thousands of people and have been very satisfied with its performance.

“We also know that this type of test, with its unique brush sampling method, is generally preferred by a lot of people,” Ms Readman said.

Enterix says it is important to understand the differences in the range of bowel screening tests available in Australia. The test recalled by the Government in May last year is manufactured by Japanese company, Fujirebio, imported by Siemans and distributed to the Government by Dorevitch Pathology.

“Also, the InSure test uses a patient-friendly brush sampling method from the toilet bowl water that requires no faecal handling and has no diet or medication-related restrictions. The Japanese-manufactured test provided by the Government’s National Bowel Cancer Screening Program requires a little stick to be poked into the bowel action. The two tests employ different methods to develop the sample and obtain a result.”

“In 2009, Enterix performed more than 90,000 bowel cancer screening tests in Australia and exported more than half a million kits to the United States,” Ms Readman said

Those people who had screened with the Government-issued bowel cancer screening kit, are being advised to speak with their doctor or pharmacist about screening with an alternative kit.

Bowel cancer, Australia’s second biggest cancer killer, claims the lives of 80 Australians each week.

Annual screening tests have been shown to play a significant role in the early prevention and detection of cancer.

“Bowel cancer kills more Australian men and women each year than breast or prostate cancer, so regular screening is vital for people over 50,” said Ms Readman.

The InSure Bowel Screening test is available from GPs or pharmacies nation-wide, or by calling 1800 55 65 75. Those seeking more information about the test can visit www.boweltest.com.au.

According to Revive Clinic Director, Louise Stewart, this is incorrect. “To the contrary, the Government has introduced an amendment to the legislation stating that collaborative arrangements need to be in place with GPs for NPs to be able to offer patients a Medicare rebate and access to the PBS. The Government has not stipulated exactly what it means by ‘collaborative’.

“Through our documentation, the Revive Clinic must already demonstrate that we have collaborative arrangements in place with GPs. This in no way, shape or form currently means that NPs must get GP approval, as they are already protected by state legislation which allows them to work autonomously,” said Ms Stewart.

“In fact, NPs have been entitled and enabled by state legislation in all states to work autonomously for more than five years. NPs have been treating patients in hospital emergency departments for some time. They would be prohibited from performing this role if their health care service offering is both unsafe and dangerous. Clinical research clearly demonstrates that NPs offer the highest level of patient care and safety.”

There is no longer a debate about whether NPs are appropriately qualified to treat patients, as they have been performing this role for years. “Rather, it is purely about whether all members of the community should have access to this service by making it available on Medicare and the PBS,” said Ms Stewart.

“It appears that medical groups and certain doctors are doing their best to ensure that this valuable health service remains unaffordable for the community to access.

“Considering the GP shortage, this is an unreasonable position for the public to accept,” Ms Stewart said.

About nurse practitioners
Nurse practitioners (NPs) are registered nurses with advanced education and training in primary healthcare. NPs must have at least five years post-University nursing experience before completing another two years (part-time) Masters degree to qualify as an NP.

As professional, accountable, independent health care providers, NPs are authorised to diagnose and prescribe medications for common health conditions and order diagnostic tests. They focus on disease prevention and treat everyday ailments including strep throat and ear, eye, sinus, bladder and bronchial infections, minor wounds, abrasions and joint sprains.

NPs are legally and professionally accountable for their own practice. They work to complement existing services, and refer clients who fall outside of their regular scope of practice, directly to the GP collaborative. Evidence shows that collaborative practice between NPs and GPs provides better patient outcomes in a cost-effective manner.

There are approximately 300 nurse practitioners practising in Australia, each of whom undergoes extensive Master level training and an approval process by state health departments to work as an NP. In recognition of their valuable role in primary healthcare, the Australian Government has recently invested $2.1 million in scholarships to help boost NP numbers nation-wide.

International clinical studies demonstrate that the quality of care delivered by NP retail clinics is equal to or higher than those provided by emergency rooms and GPs, and the cost of services is substantially lower than those offered by other health care providers.

About Revive Clinic
Revive Clinic is a new initiative offering the community efficient, simple and convenient healthcare for minor illnesses and general wellbeing. The company currently operates six in-pharmacy clinics nation-wide and a stand-alone clinic in a Perth shopping centre, with plans to open more in-pharmacy clinics, particularly in regional and remote communities requiring improved access to primary health care services, around Australia.

The Revive Clinic’s steering committee, comprising GPs, Pathologists, Clinical Pharmacists and NPs, is responsible for creating and endorsing the model’s clinical protocols and scope of practice in order to secure operational approval by the state health departments. Collaboration with patients’ GPs, pharmacists and other local health providers is central to the Revive Clinic health care delivery model.

Each state health department has regulated and approved the Revive Clinic NPs to diagnose, treat and write prescriptions for common illnesses, minor ailments and chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. NPs can also prescribe contraceptives and seasonal influenza and travel vaccinations. Revive Clinic is required to report annually on the medications it prescribes to each state health department.

The Revive Clinic’s NP services have been well received by those patients who can afford to access them. The convenience of the walk-in Revive Clinic, requiring no appointments or waiting time, has proven a highly successful formula to date.

This new community health service offers people a choice in how they access quality health care while helping to minimise GP waiting times, emergency hospital admissions and rising health care costs.

Currently there is no allowance for NPs to register as a medical practitioner offering services that attract a Medicare rebate. This is limited to practice nurses, some allied health providers and dentists. The 2009-10 Federal Health Budget outlines plans to allow NPs access to Medicare and the PBS.

The Revive Clinic is not a joint venture with the Pharmacy Alliance Group, which runs the Healthetc chain of pharmacies. Pharmacies are required to purchase a license agreement from the Revive Clinic to operate a NP clinic from their premises. The pharmacy then retains any revenue generated from the NP consultations.
