LINSEED OIL as antioxidant: is it Science Fraud?
21-04-2006 10:41
In studies of laboratory animals, flaxseed has shown both estrogen-like and anti-estrogenic effects. Although one small pilot study of breast-feeding women showed no adverse effects in infants whose breast-feeding mothers took flaxseed oil, pregnant and breast-feeding women are not advised to use flaxseed or flaxseed oil. Potentially, the unpredictable estrogenic or anti-estrogenic effects may affect developing fetuses and infants. In addition, the possible effects of flaxseed or flaxseed oil on young children have not been studied, so they are not recommended for children under 12 years of age.Women with hormone-dependent conditions such as endometriosis, uterine fibroids, or cancers of the breast, ovaries, or uterus should not take flaxseed products due to possible estrogenic effects. Men with prostate cancer should also avoid taking flaxseed products.
Flaxseed can block the esophagus or parts of the intestinal tract. Therefore individuals who have had esophageal or intestinal blockages should not use flaxseed.

21-04-2006 00:28
The fascistic actions of the New Labour tyranny have escalated with a series of attacks including plans to impose lifelong probation requirements on minor offenders released from jail and an attack on compensation for victims of state abuse which amounts to impunity and a license to stitch-up. Meanwhile, evidence from two charities reveals the devastating effects of Nazi ASBOs, which are being "routinely over-used" according to Barnardos, and are demonising and victimising people with learning difficulties according to another charity. It has also been revealed that the Oyster railcard is being used for routine surveillance by the police.The Cost of the Iraq War
