UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL: The monthly comment from CTM founder, Phillip Day.

DO YOU WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THE EU? Researcher David Noakes sums up the frightening state of affairs most in Britain don't wish to know about. That the Queen has already signed six of the seven EU treaties that will ensure the abolition of Britain as a nation. The Queen could sign the seventh in as little as two years. What are the implications and what can you do about it?
EU MEMBERSHIP TO COST US £873 EACH, CLAIMS THINK TANK: Membership of the European Union will cost everybody in Britain £873 next year, according to research recently published.
USING CHILDREN TO SELL THE MESSAGE: The Raspberry Ice-cream War, published by the European Commission, tells the story of a group of intrepid youngsters who travel back through time to a land where there are still nations and borders. They explain to the ignorant inhabitants that, where they come from - the EU - frontiers have been abolished and, with them, every misery and misfortune that used to afflict mankind. The grateful natives agree to pool their sovereignty, thereby ushering in a period of cross-border trade and sustainable growth.

OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS IN SAVING LIVES FROM HEART ATTACKS: New research published in the October issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine indicates that consuming omega-3 fatty acids may be more effective at preventing sudden cardiac deaths than automated external defibrillators or implanted defibrillators.
WAISTLINES HIDE A TICKING TIME BOMB: A million Britons are unaware that they have type 2 diabetes, and in 80 per cent of cases the condition is linked to obesity. Huw Alban Davies is not given to melodrama, but on the phone from his consulting room in Kent, he gave warning that we are raising a generation in Britain today who will die before their parents.
ACNE TREATMENT LINKED TO BOWEL DISEASE: A recent study has shown that acne drug Roaccutane (Accutane in the USA) can cause an increased risk of inflammatory bowel disease.
AIR FRESHENERS CAN HARM LUNG FUNCTION: A recent study by the National Institute of Environmental Health Services (NIEHS) found that a chemical called 1,4 dichlorobenzene (1,4 DCB), common in air fresheners, may harm lung function.
EXPERTS WARN OF AN ACCEPTABLE RISK FROM HERCEPTIN: Women who take Herceptin, the breast cancer 'wonder drug', could suffer heart problems as a result, experts say.
IS ELDERLY HEALTHCARE ADEQUATE? How should hospitals deal with malnutrition amongst elderly patients? According to a survey, nurses do not always have the time to help elderly patients who need assistance with eating and drinking.
IS FIVE A DAY ENOUGH? While we Brits struggle to meet our fruit and vegetable quota, in Japan they aim for an astonishing 17 portions daily. But who is right? And what counts anyway?
MEDIA GUILTY OF HYPING 'ABSURD' TREATMENTS FOR CANCER? Researchers from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recently began treating cancer in a 'new' way by inducing the immune system to attack cancer tumours - a method natural health advocates say is nothing new, and when induced naturally, has long been the most effective cancer treatment available.
EATING FISH BEFORE AGE 1 MAY CUT ALLERGY RISK: Children who start eating fish before their first birthday may have a lower risk of developing allergies, new research suggests.
OBITUARY: Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years.
