Fort Lauderdale, FL – Health authority Raymond Francis tells us “a genuine cure for cancer is easily accessible now.” In his revolutionary 2011 book Never Fear Cancer Again (Health Communications Inc.), Francis tells us that conventional medicine looks at cancer from the wrong perspective and asks the wrong questions. For example, Francis identified a deficiency of oxygen metabolism inside of cells as the prime cause of cancer. Now a new study in the Journal of Molecular Cell Biology reaches the same conclusion. The researchers found low oxygen levels in cells, or hypoxia, may be a primary cause of uncontrollable tumor growth.
“This explains why conventional cancer treatments don’t work,” Francis says. “They do nothing to improve oxygen metabolism in the cells, and in fact, they decrease oxygen metabolism, making matters even worse.” Simply increasing how much oxygen you take in or breathe is not the answer. Increasing the concentration of oxygen in the body is the key; this can only be accomplished by using a hyperbaric chamber under a medical professional’s supervision.
There are other things you can and should be doing to achieve a cancer-free life, according to Francis. “Eating better will make you feel better, and having a better outlook is one of the best defenses against cancer or any disease,” he says.
“Keeping a healthy outlook is both one of life’s great challenges and one of life’s great opportunities. Having a purpose, a higher meaning to your life than mere existence, is a critical part of the whole picture of health,” Francis wrote in his first book, Never Be Sick Again.
Another conclusion about living cancer-free runs counter to conventional wisdom as well, but Francis is confident that research will back up this advice, too: get out in the sun more, not less, he says. Sunlight helps the body produce more vitamin D, which is important in cancer prevention. It also increases production of hormones that prevent anxiety and depression and stimulates production of both protective white blood cells, strengthening immunity, and red blood cells, which increase the oxygen content of our blood.
“The bottom line is cancer is not a scary, uncontrollable monster,” Francis concludes. “Cancer is a biochemical process that is now sufficiently understood so that almost all cancer can be prevented and reversed.”
Francis is an MIT-trained scientist and an internationally recognized leader in the field of optimal-health maintenance. In addition to being a best-selling author, Francis is the creator of the internationally-presented Beyond Health Seminar, author of the “Pathways to Health” newspaper columns, and has been a guest on more than 1500 radio and television shows.
New York, NY – The year is 2133 and the Nazis control the world. Four scientists, pressured to complete a Time Travel project in time for the 200th anniversary of Hitler’s coming to power, hatch a plan to change history. As they get transported back to 1938 Berlin, they are pursued by two SS agents from the future, armed with the most hideous weapons of the 22nd century, who will stop at nothing to ensure the Nazis domination of the world. A remarkable story of heroism and friendship that leaves readers wondering if the forces of good will defeat the forces of evil and rescue mankind from an unthinkable future.
The inspiration behind Time Will Tell (Label Man Books), the first book in the trilogy by author Eddie Upnick, came from a chance meeting in Antigua seventeen years ago when Upnick met Sidney Dowse, one of the survivors of Sagan – the prison camp portrayed in the 1963 movie, The Great Escape. Mr. Dowse related details not told in any history book; events both from his own recollections and those of his associate, Stewart Menzies, head of MI-6 during WWII and a man who had daily meetings with Winston Churchill.
All three of Upnick’s books in the series are drawing rave reviews on Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com. An entertaining blend of historical events and fantasy, they grab the reader’s attention from the first page and carry them on a roller-coaster ride they will not want to get off. Readers are quickly pulled into the story and the characters, as they feel drawn to them all.
Future Tense, the sequel, picks up the story twenty years later in 2022. This thrilling sci-fi page-turner draws a parallel with today’s very real fear of nuclear war and terrorism. It tells of a typical blue-collar family whose youngest son teams up with a CIA operative after he learns of his father’s top-secret, heroic past. The breakneck pacing of the story that follows has them all battling a corrupted Russia, rogue nuclear threats, an impending Ice Age, and evil aliens bent on Earth’s enslavement.
2052 is the final in the trilogy and ties all three books together in a plot so intriguing it will have readers’ adrenaline flowing at warp speed as the next generation, together with the supernaturally-gifted children of Upnick’s lead protagonists, try to save the world from threats from outer space. This reality-based, science fiction plot thrusts readers deeper into what may be our possible future, leaving them wondering, ‘what if?’
The rich telling of exploits taking place throughout this action-packed, fast-paced trilogy make Eddie Upnick a writer to contend with in the historical thriller/science fiction genre. Please visit: www.eddieupnick.com for more information.

New Book Exposes Weight-Loss Myths and Reveals the Scientific Secrets to Weight-Loss Success, While Restoring a Natural, Healthy Love of Food!
San Francisco, CA – In Eating Free: The Carb-Friendly Approach to Lose Inches, Embrace Your Hunger, and Keep the Weight Off for Good (HCI Books), author Manuel Villacorta, RD, MS, CSSD, noted nutrition counselor and weight-loss expert, reveals why the prevailing wisdom on weight loss—low-calorie, no carbs, high-intensity exercise—sharply clashes with the facts of human biology and human nature, setting dieters up for failure, again and again. He offers a welcome alternative: a scientifically sound, sensible, effective, and truly pleasurable way of eating.
“Not only are we sorely overweight as a nation, we are sorely misinformed,” contends Villacorta, certified specialist in sports dietetics, and owner of an award-winning nutrition counseling practice. “Most of the methods touted for weight loss in recent years are based on denial and personal hardship—something contrary to everything the science of nutrition tells us (and contrary to our very human nature). We need to eat. We want to eat. We should eat. And yet, everything in our culture tells us eating is like a dirty secret, a guilty pleasure that tempts us day in and day out.”
Why Eating Free isn’t just another diet book:
Eating Free sheds light on a little-known hormone, ghrelin, which controls our hunger (the need to eat), drives our appetite (the desire to eat), and works to manage our metabolism and ability to burn fat only when it is fed, regularly and well. To keep ghrelin and its power to provoke cravings in check, Manuel Villacorta advocates eating—beginning with breakfast, within an hour after waking, and then every three to four hours.
Eating Free also calls attention to the role of sleep in weight loss. Based on studies, ghrelin (and appetite) increases when sleep is reduced to four or five hours a night, from the ideal six to eight hours.
Eating Free urges dieters to welcome back carbs, a macronutrient needed to control ghrelin spikes. The average brain needs 130 grams of carbs per day to function optimally. It’s why eating potatoes, pasta, and rice isn’t just acceptable but absolutely essential to losing weight.
The Eating Free program achieves steady, sustainable weight loss—with an 84 percent success rate among Villacorta’s clients, while other diets, on average, have an 85 percent failure rate!
Eating Free presents a “newtrition” combination for optimal fuel and quality weight loss: 45 percent carbs, 30 percent protein, and 25 percent fats.
Eating Free refutes the focus on grueling, daily exercise for weight loss. Research shows that losing weight is 80 percent nutrition and lifestyle. Plus, rigorous workouts cause ghrelin to spike, particularly in women.
Eating Free demonstrates that weight loss is about a whole balance of factors, including our stress levels. Cortisol production, due to everyday stress, can be a huge barrier for weight loss. Stress is toxic to our well-being, so self-care isn’t just a nice idea; it’s essential to effective weight loss.
Manuel Villacorta is on a mission to get Americans eating with elegance. Villacorta encourages everyone to eat the way his family dined in his native Peru—taking the time to savor all kinds of food, in moderate portions, and share the joy of eating with family and friends.
Eating Free is based on groundbreaking research, client success, and the author’s personal passion for eating as a way to strengthen bonds and enhance the quality of life. Villacorta offers something more than another diet, fad, or trend. As he attests, Eating Free is a lifestyle—a nourishing and satisfying, as well as sensible and effective, way of eating, every day.
A registered dietitian and certified specialist in sports dietetics with more than 16 years of experience, Manuel Villacorta is a media spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, an on-air contributor for Univision television, a health and lifestyle contributor for Fox News Latino, and a charismatic, compelling bilingual authority on weight loss and nutrition. Born in Peru, Manuel makes his home in San Francisco.

San Diego, CA – Fifty Shades of Grey (and its sequels) has taken the world by storm, selling several million copies, introducing erotic fiction to mainstream readers, and turning author E.L. James into an overnight star. Publishers everywhere are asking “What will all these Fifty Shades of Grey fans read next?” Berkley Executive Editor Cindy Hwang let the readers themselves lead her to the answer.
Author Sylvia Day originally self-published Bared To You (Berkley Trade Paperback), offering the first installment in her Crossfire series as an eBook and a print-on-demand title. The buzz for Day’s erotically-charged novel began within days of the April 3 publication—reviewers across the internet compared the book (favorably) to Fifty Shades of Grey. Bared To You immediately jumped into the list of top 40 bestselling eBooks at both Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The book is now a national bestseller, landing on both the New York Times and USA Today bestseller lists.
On May 24, Berkley Books took over the publication of Bared To You, releasing a slightly revised eBook edition, complete with brand-new cover art that speaks directly to the Fifty Shades of Grey audience. On June 12, Berkley released a trade paperback edition of the book.
Bared To You is the first book in the Crossfire trilogy about recent college graduate Eva Tramell and billionaire businessman Gideon Cross. The book finds Eva accepting her first job at an advertising firm located in the New York City skyscraper owned by Gideon. When she and Gideon first meet, the chemistry is overwhelming and instantaneous. But both Eva and Gideon bear emotional scars, and a healthy romantic relationship is foreign to them. The trilogy explores the developing physical and emotional relationship of these two complex characters.
Day is known for her romantic and deeply emotional novels and Bared To You is no different. While Day explores the exciting and passionate physical relationship Eva and Gideon share, it is the emotional connection between the two that is so captivating. Undoubtedly, readers who want an intense romance and a taste of the darker edge of sensuality will find all they are looking for in Day’s newest novel.
The second book in the series, Deeper in You, is set for release in October 2012 and the third book is set for release in early 2013.
Sylvia Day is the national bestselling and award-winning author of over a dozen novels written in the romance and urban fantasy genres under several pen names. A wife and mother of two, she is a former Russian linguist for the U.S. Army Military Intelligence. Visit her website at www.sylviaday.com.

Raleigh, NC – The wedding season has officially begun and if you received your formal wedding invitation by mail, then you already know Gabriel Washington and Tracee Andrews have plans of marrying soon. And everyone who’s anyone is invited. With a hopeful number of one million or more in attendance, this endless guest list will make this literally the biggest wedding event in history – even though the two are NOT A-list celebrities. We should also mention…they’re NOT actually real people either. They are characters in Second Thoughts (Pendium Publishing), a hot new tale by E. Dean Arnold, that explores what happens when you meet “the one” really meant for you…but possibly at the worst time ever; as in the very week you’re all set to say “I do” to another.
In an era when many rush to the altar, Second Thoughts presents a different scenario when the main character is forced to face the life-altering dilemma of “to wed or not to wed” – either choice coming with its own set of consequences. The question is, which one is worth living with when someone new steps into the picture at the last minute. With these nuptials set to take place between the pages of a book and snail mailed invitations adding to the realism of events, Second Thoughts goes far beyond fiction to share key relationship messages every couple should consider before tying the knot. For example:
What if marrying the ‘right now’ person leaves you unavailable for the person that’s really the “right one” for you? Don’t marry out of convenience. Remember that it’s a lifetime commitment.
Listen carefully to what those who love you have to say about your future mate. Physical attraction and chemistry may blind you to serious compatibility issues that friends and family may see more clearly.
Choose a mate that encourages you to dream ‘outside the box’. Settling for someone else’s limited vision of who you are is a recipe for unhappiness in the long run.
But that’s not all. These are only snippets of what’s lying between the pages of Second Thoughts. With approximately 2 million people planning to marry in the U.S. this year, E. Dean Arnold tells a story that reflects the real-life dilemma that many of these couples will face — is it the right time? And more importantly, is this the right person? According to Dr. Neil Clark Warren, founder of eHarmony, several hundred thousand of these couples should reconsider, postpone their wedding, or not get married at all. This is exactly what must be decided in Second Thoughts before the two are to say “I do.”
Second Thoughts has it all; love, disappointment, suspense and ultimately courage to follow where the heart leads. E. Dean’s book is now represented by one of New York’s top literary agents who received a formal wedding invitation by mail, read the story, and loved it. And whether or not you are one of the lucky ones to receive an invite in your mailbox, everyone is welcome to visit www.onemillioncopies.com and take a front row seat with their own personal copy of Second Thoughts.
