New Norwegian Study Supports The Colon Cancer Diet's Recommendations.

A recent Norwegian study on aspirin and colon cancer patients was published in May. Unlike many other, smaller studies, they were able to survey the entire population and had automatically recorded their aspirin use from over ten years ago. Bad for personal privacy, good for medical research.
The study combined all cancer groups, but found a significant (15%) reduction in cancer deaths directly associated with aspirin use. Stage II patients benefitted slightly more.
Aspirin is recommended in my book, The Colon Cancer Diet, though my personal experience with it has been that it likely increased my CEA. It's nice to see it being supported so broadly.
A study of this size is wonderful because it doesn't just make the alternative medical journals. Not only did the study get written up by N.D.s (article here), it appears on a conservative Texas Colon Cancer Research Center's site.

Hopefully, the broad interest will translate into a changing of recommendations for colon cancer patients. The problem is that adding aspirin after surgery might make surgeons concerned about bleeding. So the proper time to recommend aspirin would be at the six week follow-up appointment.

What Is the Deal With Fopobiacne Secrets? Scam? Sadly, Yes.

I just had another "random" person mention Fopobiacne Secrets on my comments page today. Since it seemed spammy, I deleted the comment. But it made me think that Fopobiacne Secrets is paying people to spam the internet with this product. So I decided to go looking and see what's going on. First, going directly to their official website is a weird experience. It's not a secure site, and hasn't been verified online, so it feels sketchy (I know, I use google, and I do so because they're verified and have the best security on the planet). Most product pages feature a one page click through process. You see the product, read the reviews, and buy or pass on the product. Not on the Fopoiacne Secrets page. The top of the page warns "This is not for everyone!" then in the text they say, " Fopobiacne Secrets is the best choice for you." So which is it? Not for everyone or the best choice for everyone? If you press the continue button, you...

Godaddy and the Russian Mob, or why maloneymedical.com is now a scam.

I apologize to those of you who have been confused by my sudden interest in promoting Viagra. It’s not me. It’s the Russian Mob using maloneymedical.com to rip people off. Yes, I’m taking legal action. But the law is slow and people are getting hurt and confused. (My current website is naturopathicmaine.com , but if you’re confused, just email me. Or use your phone for what it was intended and give me a call.) Please don’t assume I’ve decided that erectile dysfunction is my guiding passion going forward. Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction. In November of 2017, I stopped paying on maloneymedical.com . It was an old domain, and I foolishly thought because it had my own name in the title it would be worthless to anyone else. How wrong I was. Godaddy auctioned off my domain to the highest bidder. He took maloneymedical.com , added a fake copy of my old website using Wordpress, hosted the new fake website on Amazon, and tried to hide himself by using Godaddy’s evil twin D...
