By Hesh Goldstein We all know by now that normal body heat is 98.6 F and is produced by the body’s internal work being performed 24/7. The heart pumps, the blood moves, the muscles contract, the air is expelled, the hormones are produced, and more. So, fever, or excess body heat, is also produced by the internal workings of the body. Responding to toxicity or infection, the body relies upon special defense mechanisms that help reestablish normality. Included among these are white blood cell increase and their transport to the needed area; antibody production; increased breathing to provide more oxygen;

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Could lying in tub of water with no sound, no light, and an ambient temperature the same as the surface of your skin lower blood pressure and improve mood? Yes, according to research done on float therapy, also known as sensory deprivation. Surprised? After all, sensory deprivation is often associated with torture and punishment. But, studies dating as far back as the 1950s suggest that going for a nice “float” may be one of the most natural and soothing ways to boost your mood or even ease chronic pain. Float therapy proves effective as

About four years ago, pathologist Matthew Anderson was examining slices of postmortem brain tissue from an individual with autism under a microscope when he noticed something extremely odd: T cells swarming around a narrow space between blood vessels and neural tissue. The cells were somehow getting through the blood-brain barrier, a wall of cells that separates circulating blood from extracellular fluid, neurons, and other cell types in the central nervous system, explains Anderson, who works at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. “I just have seen so many brains that I know that this is not normal.” He soon

By Dr. Mercola Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an autoimmune condition with serious consequences. This is not the same as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which is a functional bowel disorder with no significant physical conditions that contribute to the problem. The two most common health conditions falling under the umbrella term of IBD are Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.1 While ulcerative colitis often is localized to the large intestines and rectum, Crohn’s disease can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract beginning in the mouth and ending in the anus. More frequently, portions of the small intestines …read more Source:

The chemicals we’ve long feared the most — heavy metals like lead and mercury — are less of a threat to kids’ developing brains than they were two decades ago. But two new menaces may be taking their place: pesticides and flame retardants. According to new research from New York University, flame retardants resulted in a loss of 162 million IQ points among children in the US between 2001 and 2016. The study, published Tuesday in the journal Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, looked at the four chemicals known to impact the brain of a developing child most: lead, mercury, pesticides,

Pollution, sedentary lifestyles, soy and even social ‘feminization’ have been blamed for a deepening testosterone crisis. But finding the answer fast is important – the future of America’s population literally depends on it. Alarming discoveries Testosterone truly is the male hormone. It is what turns boys into men — upon puberty the testes drastically upregulate their production of it, triggering secondary sexual characteristics. These include the growth of muscle and bone, a deeper voice and the sprouting of body hair. Without testosterone, one suspects there would be a lot of noodle-armed, squeaky-voiced man-babies stalking the streets, perhaps in the vein

As reported by U.S. Right to Know last May, court documents showed that a domestic policy advisor at the White House said, ‘We have Monsanto’s back on pesticides regulation.’ In a new and unsettling report from the Center for Biological Diversity, we now have confirmation that this promise is being kept. The study, called Toxic Hangover: How the EPA Is Approving New Products With Dangerous Pesticides It Committed to Phasing Out, found that the EPA approved 1,190 pesticide products and denied only 71 in the 2017-2018 time period, giving it a 94% approval percentage. And for the products that were

How long does it take to get a dose of nature high enough to make people say they feel healthy and have a strong sense of well-being? Precisely 120 minutes. In a study of 20,000 people, a team led by Mathew White of the European Centre for Environment & Human Health at the University of Exeter, found that people who spent two hours a week in green spaces — local parks or other natural environments, either all at once or spaced over several visits — were substantially more likely to report good health and psychological well-being than those who don’t.

By Dr. Mercola The New York Times1 reports that the average person in their mid- to late 60s today is taking 15 prescription drugs a year — and that doesn’t even count the number of over-the-counter products they may be taking. That’s a lot of medications, especially when you consider that a survey released by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP)2 not quite four years ago, in 2016, indicated that 75% of the respondents — all over age 50 — said they take at least one prescription medication on a regular basis. In that AARP …read more Source: mercola

By Dr. Mercola Iron is necessary for life as it essential to transfer oxygen into your tissues. Hemoglobin, the protein in your red blood cells that contains iron at its core, reversibly binds to oxygen and supplies your tissues with it. Without proper oxygenation, your cells quickly start dying. Iron is also a key component of various proteins and enzymes, and is involved in energy production, immune function, metabolism and endocrine function. For these reasons, low iron (anemia) can cause significant health problems. However, what many don’t realize is that excess iron is actually more common …read more Source: mercola

By Dr. Mercola In 2013, the world produced 299 million tons of plastic, of which polystyrene — one brand name is Styrofoam — is one part. A report by the Worldwatch Institute showed that this number increased by 3.9% from the year before.1 As demonstrated in this short video, polystyrene currently may account for one-third of the contents of landfills; worms may be one answer to the problem. Expanded polystyrene foam (EPF) was first discovered in 1839,2 becoming popular during World War II in material used to build military aircraft. Production grew at a phenomenal rate during this time; in

By Dr. Mercola When it comes to improving your health, some of the simplest strategies can have a tremendous impact. Sweating in a sauna, for example, has many great health benefits, including expelling of toxins, improving blood circulation, killing disease-causing microbes and improving mitochondrial function. The key word here is sweating. Just because you are in the sauna doesn’t mean you get the benefits. The sauna has to heat your core temperature up a few degrees, your heart rate needs to increase and you need to have a river of sweat, otherwise you simply …read more Source: mercola
By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) The lymphatic system, an essential component of your body’s immune system, promotes the elimination of bodily waste. Yet, the mainstream media (and conventional medicine) remains quite about the value of lymphatic drainage massage. You see, when blockages in the lymphatic system occur, the result is the accumulation of toxins and bacteria – which causes swelling of the arms or legs, a condition known as lymphedema. Generally triggered by removal of (or damage to) the lymph nodes, lymphedema is often a side effect of cancer – or cancer treatment. Fortunately, studies are showing that manual

Areas or patterns of reduced glucose metabolism are often seen in brain scans of patients with Alzheimer disease and other dementias. Now, a growing body of evidence suggests that glucose hypometabolism may be more than just a biomarker on brain scans: it may be a key player in dementia pathology. At the Society for Neuroscience’s recent annual meeting, several research teams presented data on mechanisms that may hamper brain energy metabolism in Alzheimer disease — and potentially contribute to cognitive decline. At the same time, clinical researchers are exploring ways to slow or prevent dementia using drugs and lifestyle modifications

Each year, more than 6,500 cases of bladder cancer, roughly five percent of all cases in Europe, are found to be attributable to exposure to trihalomethanes (THMs) in drinking water – and it’s all perfectly legal. For a study of countries’ water quality, the EU28 became the EU26, as adequate data for Bulgaria and Romania could not be obtained. Nevertheless, the project covered 75% of the total EU population, and a reading of its findings is ominous. What the hell are THMs? THMs are a class of molecule that appear as a by-product of the disinfectants used to clean drinking

Dare I mention biscuits and gravy – a southern favorite. All you need is to make sausage gravy and turn those biscuits into a straight-on Southern meal.
