By Dr. Mercola The exposure of medical fraud is not new. In the past, drugs have been brought to market before clinical trials revealed a deadly list of side effects, including heart attacks and deaths, as in the case of Vioxx.1 ProCon.org published a list in 2014 of 35 drugs pulled from the market after research revealed they caused more damage than benefit to users.2 You need only take a cursory glance at the epidemic that opioid manufacturers have caused in their search for profit, sometimes boasting they could become an “end-to-end” provider by supplying both the addictive drug and [More]

Scientists debate the physiological benefits of ramping up your training intensity or your training volume Despite the apparent complexity of modern exercise programs, you really have only two options if you want to get fitter: you can train harder than you’re currently training, or you can train more. Those two variables, intensity and volume, are the basic levers that all training plans fiddle with in various ways. But let’s be honest: two variables is still too many. We all secretly want to know which one is really the master switch that controls our fitness. That’s the debate that showed up [More]

Trusting your gut may be good advice, but it hardly qualifies as medical science. Or does it? Research increasingly shows that the connection between our “gut” and our brains – especially our emotions and mental health – is closer than has ever been imagined. In recent headlines and medical research papers, doctors and researchers are employing a new term for the gut: the second brain. Research such as that from doctors Braden Kuo and Allan Goldstein at Massachusetts General Hospital, the US, who found that bacteria in the gut can affect mood, cognition and behaviour is increasingly exciting to fellow [More]

By Joy Jensen, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) As we understand more and more about the importance of gut health, many people are making food choices to feed a healthy microbiome in the gut.

In fact, a new study supports the benefits of going organic, specifically when choosing your apples. Thankfully, a team of Austrian researchers took a closer look at both organic apples and pesticide-treated apples, publishing their findings in Frontiers in Microbiology. It’s just one of the latest studies comparing organic [More]

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Has your doctor ever told you have hypertension or prescribed you a medication to lower blood pressure?

And it’s becoming increasingly resistant to disinfectants. A diarrhea-causing bacterium is evolving into a new species, one that thrives on your sugar-rich Western diet, according to a new study. The Clostridium difficile bacteria produce spores that spread through contact with feces, and so can commonly be found in bathrooms or on surfaces that people touch without properly washing their hands. What’s more, this bacterium is becoming increasingly resistant to disinfectants used in hospitals, said study lead author Nitin Kumar, a senior bioinformatician at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. Patients taking antibiotics face the greatest risk of developing diarrhea from C. [More]

Teenage girls are affected by social media use more than boys, with the harmful effects being driven by three factors, according to a new study. In girls, frequent use of social media harmed their health by leading to inadequate sleep, inadequate physical activity and exposing them to cyberbullying, according to the study published Tuesday in the journal Lancet. The same did not hold true for boys who frequently use social media. Researchers from University College London tracked the social media use of nearly 13,000 teens in the U.K. from when they were 13 to 16-years-old. They also evaluated the teens’ [More]

With her kidneys and liver failing and a 106-degree temperature that had smoldered for days, Helen Tschannen was being kept alive on a ventilator. Doctors were not certain what was happening, but the family knew this: Tschannen, 77, did not want to be kept alive by machines. After 21 days in an Illinois hospital, they gathered at her bedside and wrestled with whether they were doing the right thing. A nurse unhooked the equipment. Tschannen took one breath on her own and died. It was Oct. 19, 2004. …read more Source: Sott health news feed

Comment: We never imagined we’d see this in the WaPo… A study of young children in Canada suggests those whose mothers drank fluoridated tap water while pregnant had slightly lower IQ scores than children whose mothers lived in non-fluoridated cities. But don’t dash for the nearest bottled water yet. Health experts at the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Dental Association cautioned that public policy and drinking water consumption should not change on the basis of this study. “I still stand by the weight of the best available evidence, from 70 years of study, that community water fluoridation is [More]

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) If you’ve watched any television or Hulu recently, you’ve probably noticed telecom industry commercials touting the “next generation of mobile communication.” Next generation? Sure, but the future 5G network doesn’t come without a serious price to pay. No matter how much Telecom hypes up the latest iteration of wireless communication, word is spreading (fast) about harmful 5G effects and the powerful radiation associated with it. As we reported recently, 5G technology was already met with serious backlash in cities like Sacramento. Now, in a continued effort to educate our readers about the potential dangers [More]
