By Dr. Mercola In February 2019, I wrote about the introduction of nutritionally fortified artificial sweeteners. Merisant launched a new zero calorie sweetener called Sugarly Sweet exclusively on Amazon in late January 2019, and has also created a brand-new line of artificial sweeteners fortified with vitamins and minerals.1 The fortified sweeteners are sold under the company’s Equal Plus brand, and are available in three versions: vitamin C and zinc;2 vitamins B3, B5 and B12;3 or vitamins C and E.4 The products are marketed as a “good source” of these nutrients, as a single packet provides 10% of the daily recommended

By Sara Tipton Earthquakes can happen when we least expect them, and unless you live near a fault line you probably haven’t thought too much about them. But it’s important to know what to expect when an earthquake strikes, what to do during the quake, and actions to take immediately afterward. An earthquake is caused by a sudden slip on a fault – the point where the tectonic plates meet. The tectonic plates are always slowly moving, but they get stuck at their edges due to friction and when the stress on the edge overcomes the friction, there is …read

By yourdoctorsonline Energy drinks seem like a tasty way to get a little boost during the midday slump but can cause serious harm or even death if used inappropriately. In today’s busy lifestyle, many people are trying to find more hours in the day. Staying up late and waking up early means many of us are dragging through the afternoon lull. Energy drinks and shots, with their attractive packaging and promises seem like a great way to get a little caffeinated boost. Especially to teens. Unfortunately, energy drinks are the cause of many sudden cardiac deaths in young people. …read

By Stephanie Vick, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) In a study published in JAMA Neurology, researchers discovered that commonly used drugs like antihistamines, sleep aids, antidepressants, drugs for ulcers and muscle relaxants (to name a few) increased the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. In addition, a University of Washington study found that people taking anticholinergic sleep aids and hay fever drugs – for more than 3 years – had a higher risk of developing dementia. Generally speaking, this risk seems to be due to the anticholinergic blocking effects these drugs have on the nervous system. Prescription drugs such as tricyclic antidepressants and the

By Jonathan Landsman (NaturalHealth365) If you’re suffering with chronic health conditions like fatigue, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular disease or cancer (to name a few), it’s probably due to an overload of toxins within your body. Yet, most conventionally-trained doctors know little about how to safely remove these unwanted substances. So, if this describes your situation, do not wait for Western medicine to change their ways. Educate yourself and make detoxification a top priority. Remember, brain fog, digestive problems and chronic fatigue are not a “normal” part of the aging process. Today, we’ll identify how to properly reduce your …read more Source:

By Dr. Mercola Amazon was born in 1994, when hedge fund executive Jeff Bezos incorporated the company and began direct-selling books online with a plan to create technology that would make it simple for consumers to make their purchases. His fairy tale, rags-to-riches story of his rise to wealth and fame and the company’s launch toward a near trillion-dollar value is a story that’s been chronicled nicely by Encyclopedia Britannica,1 which notes that the company — which Bezos promoted with a “Get Big Fast” slogan — did not post real profits until 2001. Part of the story is that Bezos

The world is changing at a dramatic pace. It’s shifting so fast, in fact, that the childhood you remember is vastly different than the one your own kids will experience. This is largely due to the development and saturation of technology in modern society. While there are perks to being hyper-connected, allowing children access to their own smartphone could produce detrimental effects long-term. It’s so influential, top addiction therapist Mandy Saligari suggested in 2017 that giving your child a smartphone is like “giving them a gram of cocaine.” Speaking at an education conference in London, the Harley Street rehab clinic

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) More and more people seem to be adding slices and squeezes of lemon and lime to their drinking water these days – and for good reason. When added to pure, filtered water, fresh lemon and lime create a refreshing, flavorful beverage that is a truly healthful alternative to syrupy sodas and sugary juices. But lemon/lime water is more than just a sensible stand-in for other, less wholesome drinks. Its content of vitamin C – as well as its store of phytochemicals, such as flavonoids and limonoids – gives it some surprising disease-fighting and health-promoting

People should cut down on butter, cheese and red meats because the saturated fat they contain is bad for the heart, a Government committee has declared. The fats have been demonised since the 1970s after they were linked to high cholesterol, but some evidence also suggests they can have health benefits. After the first review of the evidence in 25 years, Government advisers have ruled that eating too much saturated fat does raise the risk of heart disease. …read more Source: Sott health news feed
By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) We’ve all heard the warnings about sunbathing and getting too much sun exposure, but scientific research gives us good reason to rethink any fear-based concerns about the sun. A major study done by Swedish researchers at the Karolinska Institute has found that people who avoid the sun altogether actually have a higher risk of skin melanomas. They also have double the risk of dying from any health issue – including cancer. The study, which followed almost 30,000 women for 20 years, was recently published in The Journal of Internal Medicine. These results indicate that

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Gluten is a type of plant protein found in certain grains like wheat, rye, and barley. But, for many people with poor digestion, gluten-free foods can trigger serious health problems – especially if they are contaminated with heavy metals! As a little background: gluten-rich foods have been shown to increase inflammation in the gut; disturb moods; and decrease overall energy – even if you don’t test positive for a gluten intolerance. Understandably, many people now go to the grocery store with a gluten-free food list to minimize their exposure to this potentially harmful substance.

By telling parents not to do antibody blood tests to avoid needlessly vaccinating their child, Paul Offit unwittingly exposes scientific fraud by the FDA. Many parents today are naturally concerned about the number of vaccine doses their children are exposed to by following the schedule recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). To many parents, it makes sense to avoid vaccinating their children unnecessarily, and to this end a blood test can be done to determine an antibody titer, or the level of antibodies in the blood. If a child already has a protective antibody titer, indicating

Environmentalist Dr. Rosemary Mason has just written to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), the Department for Food, Environment and Rural Affairs (Defra) and the Chemicals Regulation Division (HSE) in the UK claiming that the glyphosate-based weed killer Roundup has poisoned her nature reserve in South Wales and is also poisoning people across the UK (she includes herself here, as she struggles with a neurodegenerative condition). She notes that the widespread spraying of glyphosate went against the advice of directive 2009/128/EC of the European parliament but was carried out at the behest of the agrochemicals industry.
