Antacids Cause Hip Fractures
Antacid medications, both over the counter and prescription, increase the risk of hip fractures. The researchers analyzed data on over 40,000 patients taking acid reducing medications. They noted that regardless of the type of medications, antacids blocked calcium absorptions and subsequently increased the risk of osteoporosis.
A disturbing finding was that a very small dose contributed to bone loss. The evidence of bone loss occurred even in individuals taking less than one antacid pill a day. Even more alarming was seen in patients who took more than one pill a day; they suffered a 41% higher risk of Osteoporosis. It should be noted that these risks went up dramatically the longer a patient was on these medications. The antacid medications studied included Nexium, Prilosec, Protonix, and Aciphex.
Clearly in the senior population at risk for osteoporosis, antacid medications should be avoided. If antacids are given, it is critically important that proper calcium supplementation be administered.

Hormone Replacement (HRT) Causes Gallbladder Disease
A recent study demonstrates postmenopausal women who take HRT increase their risk of hospitalization for Gallbladder Disease 64%. Even when HRT is stopped, the risk continues for up to 10 years. It is known that HRT causes Cancer, Blood Clots and Stroke. Now add Gallbladder Disease to the list.
The Gallbladder is a digestive organ storing Bile which is manufactured in the Liver. Bile is necessary to digest fat as well as the fat soluble Vitamins A, D, E, and K. Without a healthy Gallbladder, the person suffers digestive and Liver problems.
The current guidelines for HRT are to take the lowest dose possible for the shortest length of time. It should not be taken for longer than six months and should only be used to treat debilitating hot flashes.

Internet Impotence Drugs Prove Dangerous
A recent study demonstrates that internet drugs sold for sex drive are dangerous. Drugs including Viagra and Cialis sold over the internet are oftentimes counterfeit, and may contain too much, too little drug as well as contaminants including mercury and lead. This is especially dangerous for those with high blood pressure or heart disease. Many men want to enjoy enhanced sexual performance, but not at the risk of heart attack, stroke and contaminant poisoning. That is not to say however that taking these prescription drugs through a traditional pharmacy proves any less harmful.

Cholesterol Drugs Linked To Prostate Cancer
Cholesterol lowering statin drugs such as Lipitor increase the risk of prostate cancer. Research at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle; found that obese men taking cholesterol medication increase their risk of prostate cancer. An obese man is defined as one who is 30 pounds over his ideal weight or has a BMI of 30 or more. Among obese men who use the statin drugs for more than five years they experienced an 80% increase in the risk of prostate cancer. When used for less than five years, the risk was 50%.
It is disturbing to realize the use of cholesterol lowering medications con-tributes to increased risk of Prostate Cancer. Even more alarming is that few doctors warn patients of this potentially fatal side effect.

Antioxidants Help Prevent Cancer
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is associated with Barrett’s Esophagus (BE) a precursor to Esophageal Cancer. Drugs like Nexium only give symptomatic relief and often create lifelong dependence.
A recent study published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology demonstrated people who consumed the highest amounts of Vitamin C, Vitamin A (Beta-carotene), and Vitamin E were an astounding 52% to 75% less likely to have BE. In a related study, antioxidants that are contained in fruits and vegetables were shown to be inversely associated with GERD meaning the higher the intake of antioxidants, the less the symptoms of GERD.
