The top 7 ways to invest in semiconductors now
Semiconductors are in more products than ever and these companies stand to gain as demand outpaces supply.
By Louis Navellier and the InvestorPlace Research Staff,

Investing in Sectors
The most valuable and in-demand product on the planet right now isn't an EV, smartphone or game console. It's semiconductors — a key component found in all of these devices and every other high-tech product on the market. A global shortage of semiconductors is having a huge ripple effect. Car manufacturers are idling plants because they can't get the chips they need. Smartphone releases have been delayed. The price of TVs is going up by as much as 30%.
This demand isn't going anywhere. If anything the demand for semiconductors is only going to increase. That makes the companies involved in the production of semiconductors a very smart investment for a growth-focused portfolio.
As such, I've put together a list seven semiconductor stocks that would make great choices:
Applied Materials, Inc. (AMAT)
Corning Incorporated (GLW)
Lam Research Corporation (LRCX)
Micron Technology, Inc. (MU)
Taiwan Semiconductor Mfg. Co. Ltd. (TSM)
United Microelectronics Corp. (UMC)
The obvious choices — semiconductor fabricators — are well-represented on this list. But it pays to cast a wider net. I've also included less obvious choices that many investors make the mistake of overlooking, including companies that supply raw materials or provide the technology required to make those "silicon gold" semiconductors.
California-based Applied Materials (AMAT) describes itself as "the leader in materials engineering solutions used to produce virtually every new chip and advanced display in the world."
That's a big claim, but Applied Materials isn't just idly boasting. The company supplies material engineering solutions that manufacturers of semiconductors use in the design, product development and fabrication of chips. In its first quarter 2021 results, Applied Materials showed just how much it is benefiting from the scramble to ramp up chip production and yields. It set a record with quarterly revenue of $5.16 billion, up 24% year-over-year. The company projected it will "substantially outgrow our markets again in 2021 and beyond."
After 8 years of stagnation, AMAT stock caught fire in mid-2020, as the global shortage of semiconductors began to take hold. It has now posted growth of 122% over the past 12 months.
Corning (GLW) is an American company that significantly predates the computer and semiconductor industries. But the glass-maker became a high-tech company through the introduction of optical fiber and the Gorilla Glass that protects many smartphone, tablet and laptop displays.
You may not have realized it, but Corning also holds a critical role in the manufacture of semiconductors. Corning supplies ultra-pure materials for the fabrication process, including fused silica. Its optical materials and lenses are used in the photolithography process used in the manufacture of semiconductor wafers. Advances like Corning's EUV (extreme ultraviolet lithography) are helping make smaller and more complex chips possible.
Corning makes a great addition to a portfolio. It's a way to invest in the semiconductor rush, but Corning is also an integral part of many growing high-tech trends, including putting displays in devices and deploying high-speed broadband using fiber optics.
GLW stock is a proven performer, and has delivered growth of 123% over the past 5 years.
Described as a "fundamental enabler" of the global semiconductor industry, Lam Research (LRCX) is focused on the production — or fabrication — of chips. Lam doesn't design or fabric chips itself. Instead, the company supplies the highly specialized equipment needed to fabricate chips. Higher demand for chips, and fabricators investing in new plants means increased demand for Lam's services.
When Lam Research announced a record quarter in March, the company's CEO told investors: "Semiconductors are reaching new heights of strategic relevance, and Lam's differentiated ability to meet our customers' scaling challenges positions us well amid a strong wafer fabrication spending environment."
While growth has steepened over the past year, LRCX was already on a firm growth trajectory. Over the past 5 years, it has rewarded investors with returns of 690%.
Micron (MU) is a leading producer of key components used in high tech products such as RAM and Flash NAND memory. The company's chips are found in smart phones, games consoles, PCs, graphics cards, thumb drives, servers, TVs, smart watches, automobiles and others. In other words, just about anything you'd care to own.
Micron manufactures its memory chips in its own fabrication plants. This gives the company an advantage over the many fab-less companies that are forced to contract out the production of their semiconductors to third parties. Those companies are waiting in a growing lineup as demand far exceeds production capacity.
An investment in MU stock 5 years ago would net a return of 640%. With demand for Micron's products going nowhere but up, expect that impressive growth trajectory to continue.
Nvidia (NVDA) is one of the most recognized names in the computer chip market. The company is a GPU and graphics card powerhouse. Nvidia chips power game consoles, gaming PCs, artificial intelligence, autonomous driving systems and crypto currency mining rigs. This prominent position has helped drive NVDA stock to gains of 1,210% over the past 5 years. That's a number that would be much higher if not for the dip that's knocked 12% off NVDA share value since mid-April.
As I mentioned in a post several days ago, Nvidia is making big moves outside of graphics processors. In April, the company announced Grace, its first foray into data center CPUs. Expanding from GPUs into computer CPUs has the potential to shake up the data center server market — and significantly boost Nvidia's data center revenue, which was already worth $1.9 billion in the last quarter. Nvidia is also in the middle of an attempted acquisition of Arm. The U.K.-based designer of custom semiconductors counts the world's largest technology customers among its customers.
Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) — better known as TSMC — is ground zero for the global semiconductor industry. It's the world's largest contract chipmaker. The company operates vast fabrication plants where it produces 10,761 products for 499 different customers. That puts a spotlight on TSM stock as the poster child for semiconductor stocks.
In April, the company reported its Q1 earnings. The effect of the unprecedented surge in demand for semiconductors was evident in TSMC's quarterly profit, which beat market estimates with a 19% YoY increase. TSMC sees no end in sight to the demand for semiconductors. In response, it recently announced planned expenditures of $100 billion over the next 3 years to increase its chip fabrication capacity.
TSM stock has delivered a return of 370% over the past 5 years. This is an investment that has long-term growth opportunity written all over it.
United Microelectronics
Finally, another Taiwanese contract chip manufacturer that makes semiconductors under contract for well-known consumer electronics giants. United Microelectronics (UMC) has seen demand for chips continue to outstrip production capacity at its fabrication facilities, despite running them at full capacity.
As a result — like TSMC — United Microelectronics is investing in additional capacity. The company announced it will spend $3.59 billion over the next three years to do so. Helping to take some of the sting out of the capital expenditure, customers are making deposits to ensure their place in line at the new facilities.
While it showed flat growth for most of the past 5 years, UMC stock shot up in 2020 as demand for semiconductors soared. Over the past 12 months it has posted a gain of 244%. With a seemingly never-ending demand for custom chips, it's likely to be settling into a period of long-term growth.
On the date of publication, Louis Navellier had a long position in MU, NVDA, TSM, and UMC. Louis Navellier did not have (either directly or indirectly) any other positions in the securities mentioned in this article.

This AI bot will rip your Spotify listening habits to shreds
"You've been listening to a lot of Taylor Swift lately. u ok?"
A new app has been developed that judges your taste in music by interrogating your Spotify account.
'How Bad Is Your Spotify' has been created by digital publication The Pudding, and mercilessly rips your listening habits to shreds.
READ MORE: What your Spotify Wrapped says about your 2020
"Hi, I'm an A.I. trained to evaluate musical taste," the bot tells you as you visit the website. "To get started, I'll need to see your Spotify."
Promising to judge "your awful taste in music," the bot proceeds to ask you to choose in a "fuck, marry, kill" scenario with three of your favourite artists. Taylor Swift fans, meanwhile, could be greeted with the following message: "You've been listening to a lot of Taylor Swift lately. u ok?"

The Pudding say that the AI "knows what's good" due to it being "trained on a corpus of over two million indicators of objectively good music, including Pitchfork reviews, record store recommendations, and subreddits you've never heard of". Get your taste judged here.
The new app comes in response to Spotify's annual Wrapped feature, which tells users what their most listened to songs, and albums and artists of the year were.
Spotify Wrapped for 2020 arrived earlier this month, following the reveal of the platform's most-streamed artists of 2020. Billie Eilish, The Weeknd and Bad Bunny were among the big-hitters.
In its annual Wrapped data, the streaming platform revealed that Bad Bunny was Number One, with more than 8.2 billion streams globally this year.

Corridart; Charney's Oeuvre Going Up & Coming Down
March 29, 2013 Taylor C. Noakes	Leave a comment
Found this video on the CCA's YouTube Channel, a film n' funk track I feel is somewhat representative of experimental documentary film from mid-1970s Canada. It shows the construction and demolition of Melvin Charney's primary installation for Corridart, the cultural component of the 1976 Montréal Olympics deemed unfit by Mayor Drapeau but a few days after completion (and prior to the opening ceremonies).
As deemed unfit, grotesque, inappropriate by Drapeau the Autocrat, it was completely and utterly destroyed, largely in one overnight sweep when city workers, escorted by police and firefighters destroyed everything with blowtorches and various others pieces of heavy equipment.
For the uninitiated Corridart was quite literally a corridor of art and culture that stretched along Sherbrooke Street from Atwater to Pie-IX, with diverse installations positioned along its length, in addition to indicators of major cultural institutions and temporary performance venues and other facilities and exhibits located on the thoroughfare. It was the cumulative effort of sixty or so well-known local artists and was designed to feature nearly 700 performers of all manner, to entertain the masses moving from the city to the olympic park and back again along a principle 'showcase street' (and rightfully so; we're a city of great and grand streets, avenues, boulevards and thoroughfares, and Sherbrooke is truly of the greatest, most diverse and multi-faceted streets we have). There was a psychogeographic component as well, in that a bridge of culture and 'linear, public art-happening' connected disparate parts of the city for the sake of the many tourists moving from the Games to their hotels. The Olympic Stadium was, in a sense, further away from the city than as it is today, as you can see in the video the city itself and its concentration of services was much smaller and further west in 1976.
Charney's installation went up at the corner of St-Urbain and Sherbrooke in part of a parking lot than it now the UQAM Western Residence. The buildings on the east side of the street are still there, and from what you can see in the video, the area has 'fattened up' quite significantly in the last thirty-seven years. From what I've read and seen a considerable portion of the more central and eastern parts of today's 'downtown' business district was little more than massive parking lots back in the day, all of which have since been converted into more useful things, like hotels, condos, institutional buildings, government offices and class-A office space.
The installation was a representation of the facade of the buildings directly across the street, though reversed as though to produce a mirror image. It was, in part, a statement concerning the drive to tear down old buildings in the city centre seemingly to do nothing more than create parking lots, a statement that irked Mayor Drapeau. Other installations included a replica of the cross atop Mount Royal laid on its side on McGill Campus, over-sized Mickey Mouse hands pointing, almost accusingly, at municipal offices, an audio recording played over loud speakers detailing the cost of the Games to local taxpayers, an apocalyptic bomb shelter entrance. All that said, no one expected Drapeau to destroy so much art. That was the sting – Drapeau felt that since the works had been commissioned by the city it was his right to destroy them, and thus few outside the artistic community directly implicated in Corridart's creation ever got to see what it looked and felt like.
Drapeau was an ass.
It's too bad, because had it not been destroyed I think we'd have different memories of the Games – after all, its the festival atmosphere and public art that many remember most fondly when discussing Expo 67.
Corridart wouldn't make too much sense today, as it was very much intended to be a criticism of its time and place, but the concept of creating cultural bridges through the use of installation art and/or linear concentration of venues (or any combination thereof) is nonetheless one I still find very fascinating and think is very much applicable, novel and rather distinguishing.
After all, we spend a lot of time walking around in climate controlled corridors and our museums keep nearly their entire collections in storage as they lack the physical space to exhibit them; let's extend the galleries underground.
Corridart's enduring legacy, that art can be used to direct people's physical movements, is one I'd like to see far better implemented into our overall city design. A more direct reconstruction of Corridart, based on similar themes and seeking to establish a cultural corridor along Sherbrooke for the benefit of tourists and the artistic community alike could be rewarding endeavour, especially if part of the street were converted for pedestrian only-access over a long weekend. People just love walking down streets normally clogged with cars – there's a very liberating feeling in it, as though the city suddenly had a new common ground.
But of course, such things require a mayor who isn't afraid of public art. For all he managed to accomplish, I think Drapeau flinched and showed his true colours when he ordered Corridart's demolition. It's an insecure man who finds himself threatened by artistic commentary, even if it is scathing.
Let's be sure, when we head top the polls in November, we choose a mayor who isn't afraid of a little art.

Re-evaluating pretomanid analogues for Chagas disease: Hit-to-lead studies reveal both in vitro and in vivo trypanocidal efficacy
Thompson, A.M., O'Connor, P.D., Marshall, A.J., Francisco, A.F., Kelly, J.M., Riley, J., Read, K.D., Perez, C.J., Cornwall, S., Thompson, R.C.A., Keenan, M., White, K.L., Charman, S.A., Zulfiqar, B., Sykes, M.L., Avery, V.M., Chatelain, E. and Denny, W.A. (2020) Re-evaluating pretomanid analogues for Chagas disease: Hit-to-lead studies reveal both in vitro and in vivo trypanocidal efficacy. European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 207 . Art. 112849.
Link to Published Version: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejmech.2020.112849
Phenotypic screening of a 900 compound library of antitubercular nitroimidazole derivatives related to pretomanid against the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi (the causative agent for Chagas disease) identified several structurally diverse hits with an unknown mode of action. Following initial profiling, a first proof-of-concept in vivo study was undertaken, in which once daily oral dosing of a 7-substituted 2-nitroimidazooxazine analogue suppressed blood parasitemia to low or undetectable levels, although sterile cure was not achieved. Limited hit expansion studies alongside counter-screening of new compounds targeted at visceral leishmaniasis laid the foundation for a more in-depth assessment of the best leads, focusing on both drug-like attributes (solubility, metabolic stability and safety) and maximal killing of the parasite in a shorter timeframe. Comparative appraisal of one preferred lead (58) in a chronic infection mouse model, monitored by highly sensitive bioluminescence imaging, provided the first definitive evidence of (partial) curative efficacy with this promising nitroimidazooxazine class.

While living in India I became acustomed to a largely vegitarian diet, not strictly vegan as they used eggs and milk products. However, last year when resting at a Vegan Retreat, I enjoyed learning more about the vegan diet and the choices people make. Since then I've found interesting articles that have captured my attention. I thought it might be a good time to ponder..
The New Internationalist recently published a debate on 'is being Vegan the green option?'. I guess this got me thinking again about the choices we make and why? Would I choose to be 100% vegan for environmental reasons, health reasons, ethical reasons or would I do it as a result of a logical cost benefit analysis that took into account all those reasons?
I'm not vegan, not even vegitarian, but Im not a daily consumer of meat, dairy and other animal products - perhaps I'm hybrid? However, it is important to me to be considerate and conscious about the decisions I make.
I grow an organic garden because it's good for me to know where my veggies come from and what it takes to make them happy - I am going to be healthier and happier if I know that the food I purchase is also coming from a healthy place and isn't damaging the earth. This means supporting local growers or smaller chains who can tell you where the produce comes from.
I like to cook most of my food from whole ingredients. What this means is that I eat healthier (no added salt and all those other things that don't matter if I'm eating it today), and the food is healthier. It also means the food hasn't damaged the earth too much and I'm not supporting processing factories, international food distribution and the packaging industry..
So, it's a journey - I still want to know more about what it costs to grow, process and use soy and what the health impacts of a soy based diet are. I'm interested also in ethical dairy production, and the health benefits or impacts of a diary based diet. I'd also like to know other people's thoughts about honey? is this an animal product and do Vegans eat honey? I'd love to hear from you.... any thoughts at all.
Really interesting thoughts T. My guess would be that honey would be considered an animal product but I could be wrong??
This is a fascinating post and really has good food for thought. Like you, I require more protein than veggies can offer alone, but try to buy (at least during the summer) locally and from farm vendors who have served the earth well in their growing. My own little garden is pathetic, but an earnest attempt! I will probably return to this post to ponder some more.
Hi Karen, I agree that honey would be an animal product - but do you think it's a problem harvesting honey? I thought that ethical honey producers would only harvest honey that was over and obove what a hive would need. So much more to learn..
Jeanie - I would welcome ongoing discussion on this topic. Perhaps I'll post more thoughts each month??

5 things you didn't know about Biloela
September 25, 2017 by Outback Queensland
Ok folks, let's start with a little game of trivia.
The Capital of Australia is Canberra, the capital of Queensland is Brisbane, but the Capital of Banana Shire?
You guessed it, Biloela.
The first thing you need to know about this small outback town is its misleading name. Although affectionately called "Bilo" (pronounced Billow) by the locals, the town's name is correctly pronounced as "Bill – oh – wheelah." Capisce?
More than a word rhyming with Tequila, it's a town that sits just off the central Queensland coast 120km south west from Gladstone.
Intrigued? There're more where that came from – and we've got you covered with these fun facts about Biloela.
1. It's within the Sandstone Wonders
Think of Biloela as a pentagon. The town sits in the middle and a different sandstone natural wonder can be found in five other directions.
Venture south and you'll find Mt Scoria Conservation Park, where there's no hiding its peak against the flat landscape. Known to the locals as Musical Rock, the large vertical shaped rocks at the top of the mountain make different sounds as you pound them.
South-west of Biloela sits Isla Gorge National Park, a rocky bliss 137km from town. But don't be fooled by the sandstone premise, the jagged cliffs and gorges are covered in coloured foliage all year round, providing breath-taking views from any vantage point.
Head east and you'll come across Kroombit Tops National Park, the ultimate off-road adventure. Only suitable to seasoned off-road drivers, the tracks take you through bushland, creeks, and rainforest, to the heights of the national park.
Play I Spy in Lake Murphy Conservation Park, where wildlife run amok in this patch of paradise. Spend the night at the peaceful campsites and watch the sunset over the lake. Even, when the lake is empty, this is the perfect tent pitching place. When full, spot water-birds flocking to the cool banks of the lake or see koalas rustle in the trees and wallabies rest in the shade.
Set west on an adventure to Expedition National Park and find its three distinct sections; Robinson Gorge, Lonesome, and Beilba. Sharing its western border with Carnarvon Gorge, this national park is filled with sandstone structures.
2. It's rich with a multi-cultural history
Biloela is lucky to have two vastly different cultures embedded in its history. The town exhibits a close connection to its indigenous heritage through the Spirit of the Land Mural which sits on State Farm Road.
Dedicated to the combined history of Indigenous and white settlers and their own relationships with the land, the 100m mural painted on the town's water reservoirs is a must see when visiting town.
Continue your history lesson and stop by the Queensland Heritage Park. Take a stroll around the displays that demonstrate the major industries that have shaped the region as well as the photograph collections showcasing the town's social and cultural history.
3. There are accommodation options everywhere
For an outback town with a population of 6,000 people, the accommodation offering in Biloela seems extraordinarily large, as if to cater for the event every person had friends and rellies arriving all in one weekend.
From motor inns, motels and hotels, to camping and caravan parks, you won't be short of choices in the accommodation stakes.
We like Discovery Parks, located on the southern entrance into town via Burnett Highway.
With camping and caravan sites as well as cabins and standard motel rooms, the park is pet-friendly and comes equipped with an onsite restaurant, BBQ, laundry, and swimming pool – packing serious home-away-from-home feels.
4. The town is full of social butterflies
Considering g'days and smiles are handed out like confetti in Biloela, it's no surprise this little town has an events calendar bursting at the seams.
It's not just a calendar of major events – monthly events like the Biloela Markets in the Park (held on the third Saturday of every month), draw a serious crowd too.
All things farming and fishing are celebrated at the Callide Valley Agricultural show and the Callide Valley Family Fishing Classic.
For the automobile admirers, head to the Biloela Auto Festival, the Rotary Car, Ute and Bike Show, and the Old Wheels in Motion Rally.
If you love all things artsy, the Brigalow Art Festival held at the Regional Art Gallery is an opportunity for budding artists to showcase their work.
5. You'll never go hungry in this small town
If you think of an outback town with one corner store and a bakery as its culinary limits, you'll be pleasantly mistaken with a trip to Biloela.
Jump onboard the Bombay Express and transport yourself to India, or get a taste of Thailand at Thai Noi Restaurant.
Treat yourself to classic outback hospitality at The Commercial Hotel's Top Pub, Hotel Settler's Bistro, or the Grevillea Steakhouse.

Winston Churchtown's two-day appearance before the Oireachtas Committee on Un-Olympian Activities was a tour de force.
He would be absolutely unanimous with himself on that score.
But it was nothing compared with the Minister for Sport's tour-de-farce in front of the Oireachtas Golf Society on the intervening night, when he regaled political colleagues and invited guests with a questionable piece of doggerel he had composed earlier because he was "so bored" at the meeting convened to examine a report he had commissioned.
Definitely not a personal best for Shane Ross.
The Joint Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport was discussing the results of Judge Carroll Moran's inquiry into last year's Olympic Games ticket-touting fiasco.
Ross, aka Lord Winston Churchtown of Dublin Rathdown, was the man who had asked him to compile it.
Yesterday morning, Winston was in fine fettle following his impromptu performance at the president's prize dinner in Wicklow's Powerscourt Golf Club. Committee members who questioned him included TD Robert Troy, who is not only his Fianna Fáil shadow but also vice-captain of the Oireachtas Golf Society.
The two men have had some lively exchanges in the Dáil over the past year.
After the first meeting, Ross and Troy made their way to the afters of the golf outing, where country music impresario and former Fianna Fáil senator Donie Cassidy had pulled out all the stops to make his president's prize an event to remember.
The Minister for Sport was among Cassidy's VIP guests, along with a number of ambassadors, some leading businesspeople and the society's favourite golfing European commissioner Big Phil Hogan.
For the record, Fianna Fáil's Barry Cowen won first prize. (His brother Brian also competed on the day.) Donie duly presented his trophy. Then the Minister for Sport was asked to present the runner-up prize to Fine Gael MEP Brian Hayes.
Winston Churchtown bounded up to the microphone and began with some comments about Westmeath politicians being the bane of his life – for years he had to put up with Donie Cassidy in the Seanad and now he has Robert Troy shouting at him in the Dáil about his drink-driving legislation.
He declared he spent the day being "persecuted" at the Oireachtas committee and eventually got "so bored" he decided to write a poem about Troy .
It appears his performance "went down like a lead balloon".
The Fianna Fáilers present were particularly annoyed by his comments about Robert Troy, who is a very moderate drinker.
"I've been at a few of those dinners and I've never seen such a negative reaction. There was a deafening silence – you're not supposed to make political points at social events like this," said another guest, who added the poem "had about four verses and, to be fair to him, rhymed in a lot of places".
In his well-meaning efforts at sparkling banter, Winston Churchtown made a second clumsy attempt at humour.
This time, he directed his remarks at retired judge Pat McCartan, who was a TD for the Workers' Party in a former life. Winston declared he was delighted to see Pat as he is one of the good judges and there aren't too many of them around.
Eyebrows hit the ceiling when he joked that, thanks to the new measures he is bringing in, we will soon have a lot more good judges.
Winston's failed comedy routine may have been the subject of much discussion outside the committee room yesterday, but inside it his double-hander with Fianna Fáil's Kevin O'Keefe was hilarious for the second day in a row.
The TD for Cork East has a gorgeous, but very strong, Cork accent which can prove impenetrable to the inexperienced ear. It soon became clear that the Dublin Rathdown deputy – plummy-toned and public-school educated – was having severe difficulty understanding him.
As Kevin asked his questions, Winston stared across in sheer wonderment, slowly cocking his head from side to side, like one dog picking up the whine of another in the television background noise. Sometimes, when making lengthy points at incredible speed, O'Keefe sounded as if he was speaking while gargling a glass of water.
On the opposite side, Winston Churchtown would start his eager terrier head movements, before pulling anguished facial expressions while leaning forward as far as he could.
And still, he looked baffled.
So the glasses would come off, in case he might hear better. Then back on again, then the head would swivel this way and that and the face would scrunch up even more.
Not to mention a little diversion from the business at hand – the tangled web surrounding the story of those black-market tickets in Rio and how the Olympic Council of Ireland conducted its business during the tenure of its former president, Pat Hickey.
Solidarity TD Mick Barry offered a few suggestions for a title.
Blame it on Rio, or The Godfather, or The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
But who would play Winston Churchtown?


A straight glutathione supplement is not effective taken orally. Instead, people can take glutathione through a liposomal cream, nebulizer, suppository, IV drip, or injections. S-acetyl-glutathione, reduced glutathione, and oral liposomal glutathione are forms that can be absorbed when taken orally. These supplements will help raise glutathione levels and your general antioxidant status, which can reduce inflammation and improve health.
Another method that raises glutathione levels uses precursors to boost and recycle glutathione within cells.
Boosting your glutathione levels with an absorbable form and then supporting glutathione recycling can significantly help you manage autoimmune disease, inflammatory disorders, chemical sensitivities, food sensitivities, and more.
You'd have to live under a rock to not recognize the popularity of gluten-free diets by now. But if you think going gluten-free is just another fad, think again. Although it may be a passing fad for some, a gluten-free diet is powerful medicine for most.
The benefits, which attain almost miraculous heights for some people, vary depending on the person.
A gluten sensitivity is not a one-size-fits-all disorder with requisite symptoms. Contrary to popular belief, it does not simply cause digestive complaints (although it does cause severe digestive distress for many).
In fact, one of the most common consequences of a gluten intolerance are symptoms that express themselves neurologically, and even these can vary.
The part of the brain most commonly affected by a gluten intolerance is the cerebellum, the area at the back of the brain that controls motor movements and balance. This can cause issues with balance, vertigo, nausea, car sickness and sea sickness, and getting dizzy or nauseous looking at fast-moving images or objects.
Also commonly affected are the protective coating of nerves called myelin. As damage to myelin progresses one can develop multiple-sclerosis type symptoms such as numbness, tingling or muscle weakness.
Other neurological symptoms associated with gluten include obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), attention deficit disorder (ADD), depression, anxiety, memory loss, brain fog, autism symptoms, and even more serious psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia.
How a person with a neurological response to gluten reacts depends on that person's genetic makeup.
For others the reactions to gluten manifest elsewhere in the body. Some common symptoms include skin disorders (i.e., eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, dermatitis herpetiformis), joint pain, digestive problems, and poor thyroid function (Hashimoto's hypothyroidism).
Why does gluten cause such diverse symptoms?
The symptoms of a gluten intolerance vary from person to person because of its effects on the immune system and brain.
Gluten is inflammatory and damaging to the gut in many people, causing leaky gut. The gut is the seat of the immune system, and also communicates intimately with the brain.
When the gut is constantly inflamed and becomes leaky (even though one might not have digestive symptoms), this increases overall inflammation in the body and the brain.
Increased inflammation not only gives rise to myriad disorders on its own, it also increases the risk of developing an autoimmune disorder. This is a disorder in which an imbalanced immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys tissue in the body, such as the brain, the thyroid, the pancreas, joint cartilage, and more.
When it comes to autoimmune disease, no tissue in the body or brain is safe from an overzealous immune system deranged by constant inflammation. The rates of autoimmune diseases have exploded in recent years, and most are yet undiagnosed — meaning years of chronic and "mysterious" symptoms.
If you suffer from troubling and chronic symptoms, it is definitely worth considering an intolerance to gluten and other common trigger foods, such as dairy, eggs, soy, and different grains. Although giving up a favorite food is rarely easy, getting back your health is always wonderful.

Still have hypothyroidism despite normal lab results?
Your doctor says your hypothyroid condition has been treated, but do you still suffer from symptoms of low thyroid function?
If so, you may suffer from Hashimoto's, an autoimmune disease that attacks and destroys the thyroid gland.
Hypothyroidism means your thyroid gland is under functioning and not producing enough thyroid hormone. This is bad news because every cell in the body depends on thyroid hormones. Including brain cells. This explains why people with untreated or poorly managed hypothyroidism are at higher risk for rapid brain decline.
Hypothyroidism affects millions of Americans, many of them whom continue to suffer from worsening health despite treatment. What's more, 90 percent of hypothyroid cases are caused by autoimmune Hashimoto's. As Hashimoto's gradually destroys the thyroid gland, this lowers thyroid function, causing myriad symptoms.
Lab tests can identify Hashimoto's by testing for TPO and TGB antibodies. If positive, these markers indicate an autoimmune disease is attacking the thyroid gland. In this case, it's vital to dampen the inflammatory autoimmune attacks against the thyroid and balance the immune system.
However, thyroid hormone medication may still be necessary if damage is already extensive.
Adopt a strict gluten-free diet. Numerous studies show a strong link between Hashimoto's hypothyroidism and gluten In fact, people with a gluten intolerance are genetically more prone to Hashimoto's disease. Gluten sensitivity also promotes inflammation and leaky gut, which flares autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto's hypothyroidism.
Adopt an autoimmune diet. For many people, going gluten-free is not enough to manage Hashimoto's hypothyroidism. You may need to go deeper with an anti-inflammatory diet that eliminates common inflammatory foods, such as dairy, eggs, grains, legumes, and other foods. A whole-foods diet that emphasizes plenty of produce and eliminates processed foods is important to manage Hashimoto's hypothyroidism.
Repairing a leaky gut. Leaky gut, or intestinal permeability, typically plays a primary role in Hashimoto's hypothyroidism and other autoimmune diseases. In leaky gut the lining of the small intestine becomes inflamed, damaged, and porous, allowing undigested foods, bacteria, fungus, and other foreign invaders into the sterile environment of the bloodstream where they trigger inflammation and autoimmunity.
Stabilize blood sugar. Stabilizing blood sugar is vital to managing Hashimoto's hypothyroidism. A diet high in sugars and refined carbohydrates (such as breads, pastas, pastries, and desserts) spikes inflammation, skews hormones, and flares autoimmunity. Energy crashes, fatigue after meals, excess belly fat, hormonal imbalances, mood swings, and sleep issues are all signs you may have low blood sugar or high blood sugar (insulin resistance).
These are just a few of the basics of autoimmune management for Hashimoto's hypothyroidism. Ask me for more information.
Take flavonoids. Flavonoids are plant compounds that have been shown to reduce inflammation in the brain. Ask me for more information.?Balance your blood sugar. Low blood sugar, insulin resistance (high blood sugar), and diabetes all inflame the brain. Don't skip meals or overdo carbs.
One of the primary things we look for when someone has autoimmunity is leaky gut, a condition in which the intestinal wall is damaged, as it is usually a key factor. Autoimmunity is an extremely common disorder today in which the immune system attacks and destroys part of the body. Common autoimmune disorders include Hashimoto's hypothyroidism, type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, celiac disease, multiple sclerosis, and vitiligo. However, there are many more.
Leaky gut, a condition in which inflammation damages the intestinal wall and makes it overly porous, creates a hyper inflammatory state in the body that can predispose one to autoimmunity. Also known as intestinal permeability, it has been shown to play a role in triggering and exacerbating autoimmunity.
Leaky gut is still a relatively new concept. Science once believed the digestive system's only role was to digest foods and absorb nutrients. Now we know it also serves as barrier between the outside world and the inside of the body, and that it is home base to the immune system.
When you consistently eat foods that are inflammatory (junk foods, sugars, foods to which you are sensitive), are exposed to infectious yeast and bacteria, live with constant stress, take certain medications, or drink too much alcohol, the integrity of the gut and the immune system breaks down. As a result, the immune system becomes hyper zealous and can begin to attack the body, creating autoimmunity.
Now that researchers have established the role of leaky gut in autoimmunity, they suggest we can slow down the autoimmune process or even send it into remission by repairing a leaky gut wall. Repairing leaky gut prevents undigested foods and other foreign invaders from escaping into the bloodstream where they trigger the immune system. When you are dealing with autoimmunity, you do not want to give the immune system a reason to be activated unnecessarily. If every meal and snack you eat contains a food that activates your immune system, you are keeping inflammation alive. An anti-inflammatory diet and repairing leaky gut are key to managing your autoimmune condition.
Obvious symptoms of leaky gut are digestive symptoms, including bloating, gas, constipation or diarrhea, and food sensitivities.
However, many people with leaky gut have no gut symptoms. Instead, they may have problems with their joints, skin, lungs, mood, brain function, or fatigue, depending on how inflammation affects that person.
In these cases it's especially important to follow a leaky gut diet and to focus on nutritional compounds that dampen inflammation. Ask my office for more information.
Leaky gut conjures unpleasant imagery of intestinal contents spilling into the body. Unfortunately, that is pretty much what happens, and the results are a wide array of chronic health issues. When compounds from the intestines pass through a damaged gut wall into the sterile environment of the bloodstream, they can trigger various health conditions: skin problems, joint pain, chronic pain, autoimmune disease, mysterious symptoms, puffiness, fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety disorders, poor memory, asthma, food allergies and sensitivities, seasonal allergies, fungal infections, migraines, arthritis, PMS, and more.
Leaky gut is also referred to as intestinal permeability, and means the lining of the small intestine has become inflamed, damaged, and overly porous. This allows undigested foods, bacteria, molds, and other compounds to enter into the bloodstream. Because these compounds don't belong there, the immune system views them as toxic and attacks them. This in turn causes inflammation, which is at the heart of so many chronic health problems today.
Leaky gut was once maligned by conventional medicine as naturopathic folklore, but researchers have now validated it and linked it with many chronic disorders. It's fortunate this condition is gaining a foothold because the gut is our largest immune system organ. Studies have now linked it with inflammatory bowel disorders, gluten sensitivity and celiac disease, Crohn's disease, type 1 diabetes, depression, psoriasis, and more. Given the influence of gut health on immunity, repairing leaky gut is vital to managing any chronic health disorder.
This is because the most common cause of leaky gut is a poor diet of processed foods and excess sugars. Food intolerances also play a major role, especially a gluten intolerance. A leaky gut diet, also known as an autoimmune diet, has a strong track record of helping people repair leaky gut. Keeping blood sugar stable is also important as blood sugar that gets too low or too high contributes to leaky gut. This requires eating regularly enough so you don't "bonk" and avoiding too many carbohydrates that can send blood sugar soaring and crashing.
Other common causes of leaky gut include antibiotic use, overuse of NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, drinking too much alcohol, an imbalance of gut bacteria, hypothyroidism, and autoimmunity. Many nutrients can help repair a leaky gut, but it's important to also address what caused it. If you have an autoimmune condition, managing leaky gut can be a lifelong process requiring food restrictions and careful attention to lifestyle to prevent provoking inflammation and flare ups.
A leaky gut protocol is foundational to improving health. Not only can it relieve symptoms but it can also improve energy, enhance well being, make you happier, and clear your head. Ask my office for advice on implementing a leaky gut diet and protocol.
If you're following the strict leaky gut or autoimmune diet, you may have noticed nightshades are on the list of foods to avoid. Many common and much-loved vegetables belong to the nightshade family, including eggplants, tomatoes, potatoes, sweet and hot peppers (but not black pepper), and chili-based spices, including paprika. What many people don't realize is nightshades contain compounds that can contribute to their pain, digestive issues, and inflammation. Some people are sensitive to nightshades so it's important to determine whether they might play a role in your symptoms.
The word nightshade typically conjures images of notorious toxic plants such as jimson weed, petunias, and deadly nightshade. The nightshade family, called Solanacea, has more than 2,000 species, most of which are inedible and many of which are highly poisonous. However, many edible plants also fall into the nightshade family.
Although diet obviously plays a role in leaky gut, so do other factors, such as high blood sugar, chronic stress, and hormonal imbalances. However, it's important not to overlook the impact of seemingly innocuous over-the-counter (OTC) medications, as well as some prescription ones.
Leaky gut, or intestinal permeability, is a condition in which the walls of the small intestine become inflamed, damaged, and porous, allowing undigested foods, bacteria, yeast, and other pathogens into the bloodstream. Once these pathogens escape the confines of the intestines and hit the bloodstream, they trigger inflammation in the body and brain. Leaky gut is associated with chronic disease, autoimmunity, depression, and more. Common symptoms include joint pain, skin conditions, gut problems, fatigue, and depression and other brain-based disorders.
In addition to following a leaky gut diet, you can repair your gut and lower inflammation by eating a diet that stabilizes your blood sugar, taking measures to reduce physical and mental stress, and being aware of which medications could be making your leaky gut worse.

Stephenville UFO Report
Date Friday - August 29, 2008
Host George Knapp
Guests Robert Powell, Open Lines
Powell: Stephenville UFO Report
Gatesville, Texas Witness
Michael Lee White Passport Story
Two UFO Accounts
In the first hour and a half, George Knapp welcomed the Director of Research at MUFON, Robert Powell, who shared the results of his analysis into the Stephenville, Texas UFO sightings on January 8, 2008. Powell said he and report co-author Glen Schulze obtained radar info from the FAA under the Freedom of Information Act and scrutinized the two and a half million data points, noting where aircraft were located between the hours of 4 and 8pm. According to Powell, they found three cases of unidentified objects (that did not return a transponder signal on radar) that correlated with witness accounts.
Two of the objects appeared to be traveling around 2,000 miles per hour, Powell reported. Another unexplained object was on radar for more than an hour. Radar data shows this object heading directly toward President Bush's Ranch in Crawford, Texas, he said. While military aircraft were in the skies that night, Powell said based on witness accounts he does not believe the Stephenville UFO sightings are military related. Angelia Joiner, former reporter for the Empire Tribune who broke the story on the Stephenville UFOs, also phoned into the program. A PDF of Powell's full Stephenville UFO Report can be found here.
During Open Lines, several callers phoned in with UFO stories. Bob in Queens said he saw small, silver-colored, sphere-shaped UFOs flying around outside of a diner. Burt in Toronto said he and his wife heard a shaking like an earthquake, followed by a metallic object that hovered 300 feet over their house. Burt said the object stayed for ten seconds then took off into the distance. Mike in Arkansas shared an odd experience two friends relayed to him. According to Mike, his friends where driving home from work on some back roads (about 30 miles west of Little Rock) when they saw a box car slowly rising up into the sky. Mike said the couple's story was ridiculed and they eventually moved out of the area.
Maida in Austin, TX told George her son's missing passport that was found in Georgia by Russian defense officials. The passport, belonging to Texas resident Michael Lee White, is being used by Vladimir Putin to implicate the United States in the Georgia conflict (see New York Times). According to Maida, her son's passport was stolen in Kazakhstan in 2005. He was traveling with a new passport and has gone missing in China, she said. Maida believes her son may be under arrest and fears he may be forced to confess to something he did not do.

Dear Roker Report,
Can anyone tell me what purpose there is to a transfer window in football? If my memory is correct it was introduced to stop clubs panic buying when they had bad results and were in danger of relegation. The knock-on effect was clubs still being relegated and being burdened with players they did not really want and the associated debt. Clubs in effect spending money they didn't have. Fast forward to now and it hasn't improved anything - our own club is in a mess due to the players bought in such circumstances.
Surely now that the Financial Fair Play regulations are in place there is no need to have a window in place? If clubs were allowed as long as there finances were in order to sell or buy players at any time it would stop panic descending twice a year. Agents are pulling millions out of football - again if there were transfers free of time restrictions their influence would wane.
I have no figures to back it but l would guess that there is more Sky TV money being given to agents than arrives anywhere below the Premier League. There is only sell a player and invest in someone else approach operating from the First Division down anyway.
So l say scrap the windows, insist the clubs buy from within their budgets and we will end up with a much better model. No business can really succeed if it is not allowed to increase or decrease its workforce to adapt to its current need, yet that is exactly the model football clubs have in place.
Gerard Hiscock
Ed's Note [JN]: Of course, nothing is perfect. But I do agree, the transfer window merely leads to over-inflated fees and imbalanced squads up and down the leagues and all over Europe. The difficulty is, it is now so intrinsically embedded into our footballing culture that I fear it will never go.
Plus, as you say, the TV companies benefit the most, and what they say goes.
If anything, at least the hype around transfer deadline day and all the absolute circus involved has waned significantly too.

Sunderland has had a rough period, and subsequently the fans have suffered greatly. I sometimes fear though that we as fans transition through feelings capriciously. It was only a few months ago that all was darkness, and we were traveling through the "Valley of Death" on an ever downward spiral.
Then we were saved, new owners came in, new owners who not only were content to balance out the club and replace the previous owners, but owners who had ambition. They hired a new manager, got rid of many of the malcontents, and invested in the club. But within months, some fans were dissatisfied with the new owners, new players. Some fans that talked of only wanting players that would work, were now unhappy to have players that would seem to do just that, because they did not have a pedigree.
I think it is important for people in general but as fans to be honest with ourselves. We are fans of a club in League One, there is no use looking down on that and saying we are better. The club surely showed anyone that watched last season or the year before that we were not good enough for the leagues above.
When we get promoted - whether it be this season or next, or five seasons from now - we should try and enjoy the ride, and enjoy winning at whatever level. God knows we have experienced losing enough.
If we get back to the Championship, I do not think we should hope to invest 40 million pounds - it does not guarantee promotion. Look at Villa, a big club like us, a big fanbase like us, spent big, and have not been promoted. The owner defaulted, and without new ownership that club could have been in freefall.
Maybe Sartori will ensure major investment, but I desire the club to target gradual growth, building and developing the infrastructure, investing in the academy. Hopefully, they will target the best youngsters from Britain and Ireland and bring them into the first team or the reserves.
That is the type of club I want to see and be, not just a club that buys its success, even if we do get promoted, though as previously mentioned there are oh so many examples of money not ensuring success and sometimes causing catastrophe.
Let us remember what so many of us hoped for. A club with definite principles, aspirations, and style. A club that promotes youth, and is filled with talent from the region, and Britain in general. A club that discovers talent, not one that reuses it. A club that has players that fight for the shirt, and are not here only to be paid. A club that when it returns to the pinnacle will be reinvigorated, with defined direction, and an unwavering belief in its own model, not a club that changes everything when the siren song of Premier League Money comes calling. These players that some of us have not heard of, let us not look down on them, because many of the ones I had heard of that came to the club were awful.
Let's enjoy this new dawn, and be hopeful, lets hope the despair and cynicism from the past few years washes away or at least recedes some.
Colter Lasley
Ed's Note [JN]: Here here. It is a shame you have to drop to such a low level to find this in football, but here's hope we can instill a real culture into the club and try and keep this once we are back in the Premier League - whenever that day comes.

Over the moon with the start the team has had, but the biggest bug bear is how and why our awol players have not been sacked yet. Only in football could this happen, that's what annoys me about players and agents: they have far too much power. Ndong's deal fell through because of his agent's demands. This cannot go on or football's heading for the toilet.
When Sunderland get back to the big time how can we afford the likes of £67 million for a keeper? It's a joke!
Young, homegrown talent is not getting a chance to shine all it is now is over-paid, under-performing super stars who don't give a sh*t about fans or clubs they play for. Time for change all teams should have a set transfer fund set by the league they play in.
Look at last year in European leagues, their champions won by massive points gaps - this beautiful game is been ruined by greedy players and agents football has to go back to its grassroots and give it back to the fans. I know football needs the investment but the gap between the big clubs and likes of us is getting wider and wider - enough is enough we need change.
Mark Wild
Ed's Note [JN]: Surely this sort of financial inflation is unsustainable? For every Newcastle and Wolves (spend ludicrously to get back in the big-time) there will be numerous more Sunderland and Portsmouth's. Villa barely got bailed out of liquidation at quite literally the last minute.
Agents run the game, just look at the current Pogba scandal - I'd wager it is all engineered by his agent (Mino Raiola) purely to get a payday for himself and his client. Pogba will merely continue to move every other year and chase the pay packet and headlines. He is the epitome of a modern footballer, and is essentially a walking advertisement.
