By Dr. Mercola If you want splashes of color in your spring garden, the classic tulip is a timeless essential. Even if there’s a chill in the air, you can get started with planning — and planting — these cheerful harbingers of spring. If you’re a novice, however, it’s wise to research tips for planting tulips to maintain their growth. The basic tulip is cup-shaped with three petals, sturdy stems and six elongated leaves. While they’re associated with Holland, tulips originated near where the present-day borders of China, Tibet, Afghanistan and Russia converge. Historical documents show they were cultivated in

Ever been in a situation where passing wind is going to be hugely embarrassing and you’ve had to hold in a fart? Let’s face it – we all have. Trying to hold it in leads to a build up of pressure and major discomfort. A build up of intestinal gas can trigger abdominal distension, with some gas reabsorbed into the circulation and exhaled in your breath. Holding on too long means the build up of intestinal gas will eventually escape via an uncontrollable fart. The research is not clear on whether the rise in pressure in your rectum increases your

By AdminM by Paul FassaHealth Impact News Headlines in the corporate-sponsored “mainstream” media this past week warned the public about a new “mysterious infection” that is drug-resistant. As a recent NY Times Health Section article reported, there is allegedly a hospital cover-up of an emerging candida fungus, Candida or C. auris. It is the latest antimicrobial drug-resistant “super-bug” to emerge in hospitals and nursing homes. This time it’s not about bacteria, it’s a virulent form of Candida. And while the corporate media, sponsored in a large degree by Big Pharma, will almost never report …read more Source: Health Impact News

By Tess Pennington I was first introduced to herbal teas while visiting my soon-to-be mother-in-law for the first time. It was a blustery winter day and we were all sitting around a table when she kindly offered me a cup of hot herbal tea. It was perfect – warm, sweet, and my body immediately felt the effects. Since then, my family drinks custom-blended herbal teas to boost our immune system, treat an ailment, or to help to relax and fall asleep. No matter what the season, herbal teas are wonderous – and in this case, Momma does know best! After

The World Health Organization has backed out of sponsoring an event promoting a radical diet that drastically cuts back on meat. The UN body planned to support the launch event of the scientific group behind the controversial ‘planetary health diet’, dismissed as ‘nanny-state’ madness. Scientists say its adoption is vital to feed the world’s booming population without destroying the environment and would improve the health of millions. But the WHO stopped sponsoring the event following criticism there is ‘no scientific justification’ for everyone in the world to adopt a standard diet. The British Medical Journal first reported the WHO had

Representative Morgan Griffith (R-VA) has reintroduced a bill to ensure continued consumer access to customized natural medicines made at specialized pharmacies (known as compounding pharmacies).

Here in North America it seems as though we have become obsessed with the idea of having a lush, perfectly green yard to show off to our neighbors. But what we likely don’t realize is that we could be killing off something that has not only some amazing medicinal uses, but also the potential to kill cancer cells. Researchers from the University of Windsor, Canada have been given over $200,000 in grant money to perform an elaborate study on the effects of using dandelion roots to treat cancer. The leaves, flowers, and roots of dandelions have long been

By raptorman Researching such a tight lipped subject as geoengineering, investigators must rely on scientific studies, patents and what the climate scientists and their corporate backers plan on doing in the “future”. No one is going to openly admit that geoengineering or Solar Radiation Management is happening now because of the dangers involved.

By Dr. Mercola Edible mushrooms are an unassuming superfood with health benefits that can rival even the most nutritious vegetables. Mushrooms — which are fungi, not plants — have recently been shown to support brain health, such that they may slash your risk of cognitive decline even if you eat them only twice a week.1 Considering mushrooms are widely available, relatively inexpensive and suitable for a wide variety of culinary uses — not to mention delicious — adding them to your diet may be one of the simplest ways to support your brain health — and more. Mushrooms May Prevent

If you’re looking for another reason to drink cherry juice, look no further. A new study from Northumbria University, Newcastle, found that Montmorency cherry juice is just as effective at lowering high blood pressure as medication. The results of the study, published in the The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, discovered that men with early hypertension, otherwise known as high blood pressure, reduced their blood pressure by 7 percent after drinking Montmorency cherry concentrate, which is comparable to the effect achieved by drugs. A spike in phenolic acids means a reduction in high blood pressure Read More:

When it comes to the Religion of Vaccination, there’s one area of research that’s completely off-limits, and it encompasses looking into vaccine safety and effectiveness independently, and with an open mind. The reason for this, of course, is that every time a scientist dares to do this, he or she typically discovers that vaccines aren’t nearly as safe or effective as the medical police state claims – which instantly makes said scientist a target of the medical establishment, which has no qualms about doing almost anything in order to silence the truth. One recent and prominent example of this

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) You already know fried foods are not great for your health – something both intuition and research supports. But surprising new research published in the journal Cancer Prevention Research has discovered that it’s possible to make vegetable oil even more toxic – and in fact, carcinogenic. The paper’s authors made a startling discovery in their study: consuming reheated vegetable oil triggered cancer cell growth in animals. And, let’s not forget that we (humans) are animals too. So, we should not ignore these results. Restaurants often reheat their vegetable oil for fried foods …read more

Experts say the weedkiller’s impact on soil health represents a serious threat to Europe’s long-term food security. When François Peaucellier talks about soil, he sounds like a sommelier. “It’s full of little leaves,” says the French farmer, holding up a clod from his field. “The earth is supple and beautiful. There is a surface life that is superb.” Peaucellier, who grows cereals and vegetables on a 200-hectare farm in the Hauts-de-France region north of Paris, is part of small but growing movement of farmers who are cutting back on pesticides not so much out of concerns for human health –

A decade-long observational study of more than 30,000 people finds that certain vitamins and minerals may help extend your life and keep you from dying of cardiovascular disease-but only if you get those beneficial nutrients from foods, not supplements. The study, published this week in the Annals of Internal Medicine, is yet another to find that taking supplemental vitamins and minerals-either individually or in multivitamins-offers no discernible benefits in terms of reducing risks of death generally or death from cardiovascular disease and cancers, specifically. Simply put, popping pills can’t take the place of eating a healthy diet-an unflashy takeaway that

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) It’s official – glyphosate, the active ingredient in the weed-killer Roundup, has been officially linked to cancer cell growth. Last summer, a jury awarded $289 million to a school groundskeeper for Roundup’s role in his non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma – and hundreds of lawsuits are ongoing. Now, research reveals a stunning – and dangerous – twist in the story of this toxic chemical: the “inactive” ingredients in Roundup are thousands of times more toxic than glyphosate itself. As the most commonly-used herbicide in the world, glyphosate is routinely sprayed on food crops, lawns, roadsides, parks and

“Just as ignorance of the law is no sound defense to legal charges brought against you, ignorance of medical fact is ultimately no sound defense for a doctor withholding valid treatment, especially when that information can be easily accessed.” – Thomas Levy, MD, JD, author.
