About Elizabeth Plourde
ELIZABETH PLOURDE, C.L.S., N.C.M.P., Ph.D. is a Clinical Laboratory Scientist and North American Menopause Society Certified Menopause Practitioner, on the Advisory Board of the American Anti-Cancer Institute and on the Honorary Advisory Board of the Charitable Giving Foundation. She received her B.S. in Biological Science from California State University located in Hayward; M.A. in Psychology from Pepperdine in Malibu, California and Ph.D. from San Diego University for Integrative Studies, California with a dissertation titled: The Impact of Hysterectomy Versus Oophorohysterectomy On Women’s Sexuality. Her training in the fields of both Medicine and Psychology is augmented by invaluable experience gained while working at Dianon Systems in Connecticut, a cutting-edge Cancer Research laboratory specializing in pathology for diagnosing and monitoring cancer.
As professor, she has taught at San Diego University for Integrative Studies and Concordia University in Irvine, both in California.
As a specialist in the complexity of how hormones function in the body, she has authored several books specializing in hormone health. Her 2013 publication EMF Freedom: Solutions For The 21st Century Pollution highlights how the electromagnetic fields of Smart meters/WiFi/Cell phones that are now radiating our bodies 24 hours a day can be connected to the increasing incidences that are being seen in cancers including brain cancers, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, anorexia, obesity and allergies. The electromagnetic sensitivity (EMS) symptoms of exposure include vertigo/dizziness, nausea, brain fog, blurred vision, tinnitus, fatigue, irritability and nerve and muscle pain. The book includes the biochemistry behind the EMS symptoms of headaches/migraines, skin rashes/tingling, shortness of breath, food allergies, heart palpitations and insomnia that many experience. It also highlights how EMF radiation can lead to infertility, as lab animals demonstrate irreversible infertility, altered fetal development and sperm morphology, as well as a reduction in testosterone. Research studies tracking the levels of EMF exposure of pregnant mothers clearly show that the amount of EMF during fetal development is directly correlated with the incidence of obesity and asthma seen in the children.
Today it is the electromagnetically sensitive individuals that are seeking help for unexplained illnesses. However, with the number of wireless devices worldwide surpassing the number of people on the planet, the cumulative effect of radiation will increasingly impact more and more people needing to find relief from their symptoms. Dr. Plourde’s book also includes the protective practices she needed to implement to be able to work again, as she could not once Smart meters were installed in her city.
Her other three books include Sunscreens Biohazard: Treat As Hazardous Waste; Your Guide To Hysterectomy, Ovary Removal & Hormone Replacement; and Hysterectomy? The Best Or Worst Thing To Ever Happen To Me?

There are so many sunscreen products on the market these days and so many burning questions for anyone looking for a safe and perfect summer tan. Our Faith Salie has sallied forth in search of some answers.
For generations, a tan has said, health, beauty, the good life.
All you need is a little sunscreen for some fun in the sun. And the forecast is sunny. By 2013, we'll spend six point six billion dollars on sun care products. But these days, you don't really need the sun. 30 million Americans use tanning beds. And as for faux tans, celebrity spray tan or Jimmy Coco earns up to three hundred fifty dollars a spray.
People call me up and they ask, will I be orange? And I just want to say, excuse me. This is Jimmy Coco. You're not going to be orange. No, no, no, no, no.
But it wasn't always like this.
Tanning used to be very unpopular. My grandma, who is a farmer's wife, would wear long sleeved shirts. And we're we're big, big sunhat to protect ourselves because for her, the idea of beauty was this ivory skin. Why is that? Because ivory skin represented having wealth.
You didn't have to work in the fields, according to Joel Hillhouse, professor of public health at East Tennessee State University. The history of tanning in America is more than a little colorful.
As we began to move into a more industrial society, then ivory skin represented being a factory worker and tan skin represented having the leisure to lay out in the sun or even to travel to sunny places.
Legend has it. Coco Chanel started the tanning trend when she got burned on the Riviera. But flappers were already catching some rays at the shore after World War Two. The tanning craze really started to sizzle when babes met the bikini beach blanket. Bingo. Anyone?
Over good towns, the kids would go get towns when they come in and all the girls are gone. We'd go all over the girls.
Ron Rice was a lifeguard during those days.
That was just a fun time to live. But nobody thought about damage and some damage.
Nope. They were thinking about a deep, dark tan. So in 1967, when he was a high school chemistry teacher in Daytona Beach, Florida, Rice created what would become Hawaiian Tropic tanning oil in his garage.
Now, water, garbage can for four dollars, 20 gallons of water, a broom or cut off the handle and from the from the top and started up lugger, which is ruined, had two eleven year old kids or her.
They poured into the bottles and the way
