Proof The Bible Is True

By Joy Jensen, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) According to the CDC, it’s estimated that at least 5% of children within the United States have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), although some studies estimate that the incidence of ADHD in children is even higher. In fact, in 2016, it was estimated that more than six million children between the ages of 2 and 17 had been diagnosed with ADHD. But, conventionally speaking, not a word is ever mentioned about how natural remedies can help these kids, like with the use of saffron. Currently, it’s estimated that 5.2% of children in the United [More]

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Chronic disease is on the rise. Right now, 133 million Americans – nearly half the population – have at least one chronic illness such as diabetes or heart disease. With so much illness prevalent – and with the aging of the population overall – it’s no wonder many individuals are worried about healthy aging. But, could consuming the proper amount of omega 3 fatty acids be part of the solution? Research shows most Americans are not consuming enough omega 3 fatty acids in their diets. Turns out this is hugely problematic, and not just [More]

Have you ever wondered why you are attracted to certain types of exercise? Do you need a thrill through risk-taking activities? Competitive sports or races? A solo trek on a trail or in the weight room? Do you feel your best with endurance exercise like running, swimming and biking? When you get stressed, do you have a physical outlet? The best exercises for mental health actually have a genetic basis, with genetic testing helping you develop a custom workout routine. Perhaps one aspect of this attraction is a proclivity to certain activities based on your natural ability. If you are [More]

By Dr. Mercola Nearly 610,000 people die each year from heart disease, which accounts for 25% of all deaths in the U.S.1 Each year 735,000 have a heart attack; in this group, it was the first cardiac event for 525,000 of them. According to the American Heart Association, the annual cost of cardiovascular disease and stroke was estimated at $351.2 billion in 2014-2015.2 The American Heart Association also reports that 116.4 million Americans have high blood pressure and that someone dies of a stroke every 3.7 minutes.3 Individuals who have high blood pressure or diabetes, as well as those who [More]

Exercise can work wonders for your health, including strengthening your muscles and bones and boosting your metabolism, mood and memory skills. Staying active may also help to lower your odds of developing cancer, according to the National Institutes of Health. Recent research shows that physical activity is associated with reduced risks for seven common types of cancer: colon, breast, kidney, endometrial, bladder, stomach and esophageal adenocarcinoma. They also found that exercise before and after a cancer diagnosis led to improved survival among people with breast, colorectal or prostate cancers. In another study, a person’s estimated age based on an exercise [More]

By Dr. Mercola Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic bladder condition that may cause scarring and stiffening of the bladder walls. Researchers1 have found that only 10% of those who suffer from IC are men. In the male population, characteristic symptoms include pelvic pain, dysfunction with urination and chronic prostatitis with pain associated with sexual activity. Women who have the condition often have chronic pain in their bladder, irritable bowel syndrome and other issues. In a population-based study, researchers found the median age of onset was 40 years and up to 50% would experience a spontaneous remission ranging from one [More]

By Dr. Mercola I’ve written many articles detailing the general health benefits (and potential but largely avoidable risks) of sun exposure. But did you know sun exposure impacts your eye health as well? Here too, there are both risks and benefits, which largely prevents any hard and fast recommendations from being made. Ultraviolet Light May Raise Your Risk of Cataracts Starting with the risks, research1 funded by the U.S. National Eye Institute published in 2014 found ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun can damage proteins in your eyes, over time raising your risk for …read more Source: mercola     

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) While gluten has long been identified as the culprit behind celiac disease, science has confirmed that this autoimmune disorder may be triggered by other wheat proteins, as well. This wheat protein, and related alcohol-soluble proteins (called prolamines), can also be found in rye and barley. The study, published in the Journal of Proteome Research by scientists at the United States Department of Agriculture and Columbia University, took a closer look at the remaining 25 percent of wheat proteins to determine whether they also caused problems for celiac disease patients suffering from gluten intolerance. Celiac [More]

By Dr. Mercola Depression is common in older adults, occurring in 2% of those aged 55 years and older and rising with increasing age. Many more — from 10% to 15% — struggle with depressive symptoms, although they may not have been diagnosed with major depression.1 That being said, there’s been a major rise in the number of antidepressants being prescribed for older adults over the last two decades, without a similarly sharp increase in the number depressed, according to a study published in The British Journal of Psychiatry.2 The findings suggest seniors may be being overprescribed antidepressant drugs, which [More]

Scientists find common chemicals can negatively impact pregnant women. Researchers found that exposure to certain chemicals in consumer products during the first trimester of pregnancy is linked to lower IQ in children by age 7. Among the first of its kind, the study, carried out by scientists from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Karlstad University, Sweden, linked mixtures of suspected endocrine-disrupting chemicals to prenatal neurodevelopment. The research analyzed data from SELMA, a study of Swedish mothers and children during the first trimester of pregnancy, measuring 26 chemicals in the blood and urine of 718 mothers. The [More]

Among New York City schoolchildren who live within a half-block of a fast food outlet, 20% are obese and 38% are overweight, shows analysis. The closer a child lives to a fast-food restaurant or a corner store, the more likely the child will be obese or overweight. Just having fast-food outlets a block farther away, and potentially less convenient or accessible, can significantly lessen children’s chances of being obese or overweight, according to the analysis by researchers at New York University (NYU) School of Medicine. As measured in city blocks, closeness to fast and convenience food sellers can impact a [More]

By Dr. Mercola In 2016, the Fluoride Action Network (FAN) and coalition partners filed a petition asking the EPA to ban the deliberate addition of fluoridating chemicals to U.S. drinking water under Section 21 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Under the TSCA, the EPA evaluates risks from new and existing chemicals and is supposed to act to address any “unreasonable risks” such chemicals may pose to human health and the environment.1 However, the EPA has maintained that because fluoride supposedly prevents cavities — a “benefit” that’s been disproven — it justifies adding the chemical to water, even though [More]

By Dr. Mercola Frankincense, which is also known as olibanum,1 was once as common in households as toothpaste and deodorant are today.2 High quality oil or resin is a product of the Boswellia sacra tree, commonly found along the Arabian Peninsula that is home to several countries, including Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.3 There are 30 species of the Boswellia plant4 and frankincense is harvested from the B. sacra tree. The gum resin of the plant contains a volatile oil used in perfumes and incense.5 The incense continues to be used in the Roman Catholic and [More]

By Natalie Robins, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Vitamin K doesn’t get as much attention as some of the other vitamins, but ignoring this essential nutrient would be a mistake. In fact, it may even be good for your health to ask, what does vitamin K do? Well, this essential vitamin is a necessary component in the blood clotting process, which occurs when you cut yourself so that you don’t lose too much blood. Assisting in coagulation may be vitamin K’s best-known function, and the vitamin’s name, “K,” comes from the German word, “koagulation.” However, vitamin K’s effects go beyond blood clotting, [More]

By Sara Tipton As winter approaches, we find ourselves cooped up indoors more enjoying those hot cups of coffee or cocoa, and dismissing the idea of venturing out in the cold. However, our bodies need sunlight and vitamin D, especially in the winter when the days shorten. It’s difficult to get enough vitamin D in the winter. The days are shorter and the weather is cold and gloomy and the dreaded cold and flu season is in full swing. But you definitely should venture outside some, because so many studies show that vitamin D helps reduce the risk of colds [More]

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) It used to be that “burning the midnight oil” and being sleep deprived was a badge of honor, a sort of bragging right among “busy” people trying to get ahead in life.

A new study reveals just how significant the health risks of chronic sleep deprivation are, especially if you’re already living with a health problem.
