By Reality Ask any centenarian what their secret is to living beyond 100 years old and you will receive varying responses. One centenarian told me his secret to living a long time was eating and drinking whatever he wanted, as long as it makes him happy; another centenarian told me she made sure she didn’t overeat; another centenarian told me she drank 2 raw eggs for breakfast ever day and had for as long as she can remember. So, which response is supposed to apply to you? I don’t know. But what I do know is that they don’t really

By Dr. Mercola Choline, found in ample amounts in egg yolks, was first discovered in 1862.1 Since then, we’ve learned that this is a truly essential nutrient for a healthy brain, nervous system and cardiovascular function. It’s particularly crucial during fetal development,2 so choline requirements rise exponentially in pregnant women.3 Importantly, choline is used in the synthesis of phospholipids in your body, the most common of which is phosphatidylcholine, better known as lecithin, which is required for the composition of your cell membranes.4 As noted in a 2013 paper:5 “Humans must eat diets containing choline because its metabolite phosphatidylcholine …read

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) While cancer is expected to affect nearly 40 percent of Americans – at some point in their lives, there is still good news on the natural health front.

By Julie Fidler The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) offered some good news on November 8 when it released data showing that smoking rates in the U.S. are the lowest they’ve ever been. Unfortunately, there was some bad news to go with it. Smoking rates have fallen by 67% since 1965 when the U.S. government first began tracking smoking rates. An estimated 14% of adults smoked in 2017, down from 15.5% in 2016. The rates were even lower among adults 18-24: from 13% in 2016 to 10% in 2017. In a press release, CDC Director Robert Redfield

By Isaac_Doetse Judging from the scientific point of view and according to scientific literature, BD farming is invalid and has been described as a hoax. Others choose to call it a black box. However, from the non-scientific point of view which was in place before the development of scientific methods, BD farming is still valid. Since the so called non-scientific methods i.e. traditional, indigenous beliefs however existed before scientific methods were developed, the question is how humanity lived before the development of science. Rudolf Steiner, the founder of the BD farming movement totally rejected the process of scientific enquiry. This

By Seth Pollard In recent years, health experts have been warning about the health consequences of consuming energy drinks, which contain a mixture of caffeine, sugar, and other herbal ingredients, due to the beverages’ effect on the heart. In a recent study, researchers found that consuming just 1 energy drink leads to blood vessel damage, which can point toward other health ailments. Energy drinks like Monster and Red Bull have been linked to heart, nerve, and stomach problems, researchers say. And young people who use them to boost their athletic performance may be doing themselves more harm than good. Lead

By Thomasina Copenhaver Cancer. The word continues to evoke paralyzing fear in humans despite the science and education that exists to empower them to heal. Clocks-human beings live by them. Age, education, work, sickness, marriage—are all measured by the passing of years. Life and death are often measured in quantity of time—as opposed to quality. As the song “Turn, Turn, Turn” so appropriately says, “a time for every purpose under Heaven.” What could cancer and clocks possibly have in common? According to years of scientific research, circadian rhythm—that is, the 24-hour rotation of the Earth, may have a far more

By Mike Barrett Microplastics are in bottled water, tap water, fish and seafood, and even table salt. There are more microplastics littering the planet than stars in the sky; it’s impossible to avoid them. Most recently, researchers have discovered microplastics in human poop, and you probably have some in yours, too. In what is being called a first-of-its-kind study, researchers discovered microscopic bits of plastic in stool samples taken from people around the world. According to the study’s lead author, Dr. Philipp Schwabl, a physician scientist at the Medical University of Vienna’s Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, the study “confirms

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola I’ve written many articles highlighting the bias created by funding and the dangers of basing health decisions on industry-funded science. Independent, unbiased research is absolutely crucial for getting to the truth; without it science becomes little more than an extension of marketing, and hence useless. So, what’s happening at Cochrane right now is nothing short of tragic.1,2,3 Cochrane (an international network of scientists that promotes evidence-based medicine), formerly known as the Cochrane Collaboration, has been the gold standard for independent scientific meta-reviews, and the organization’s reputation has managed to stay remarkably unblemished — …read

By Dr. Mercola There are multiple areas in your home where bacteria find it easy to grow. Bacteria thrive in a warm, moist environments. One common household item that can harbor nearly 360 different species of bacteria is your kitchen sponge. However, while putting a sponge in the microwave for several minutes may kill some bacteria it doesn’t kill the worst ones.1 This is one reason Philip Tierno,2 professor of microbiology and pathology at New York University School of Medicine, says water temperatures need to be at least 140 degrees Fahrenheit (F) to kill bacteria and germs on your clothing

By Dr. Mercola In a survey of 20,000 U.S. adults, 46 percent said they sometimes or always feel alone.1 While on the surface this may seem to be a mental health issue, it’s one that’s intricately tied to physical health as well. Increasingly, research is showing that loneliness exacts a significant toll on your health, one that’s equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day2 and increases your risk of premature death.3 Your brain health may also suffer as a result of feeling lonely, with a recent study — including the largest sample to date — showing loneliness is associated with

By Dr. Mercola Castor oil — a yellow-tinted, translucent vegetable oil — is derived from the seeds of the castor bean plant. It is an unsaturated omega-9 fat with a reputation for having a distinctively unpleasant taste. You may be old enough to remember being forced to drink castor oil, perhaps to relieve constipation, which some thought was reflected in a child’s unpleasant mood. Strong taste aside, castor oil has been used for millennia to treat medical conditions — most notably digestive issues, including constipation and dysentery. In modern times, castor oil continues to be used as an ingredient in

By Dr. Mercola Tea is the second most popular beverage in the world, overtaken only by water. What’s even more impressive is that the rate at which people are drinking tea is continually increasing. In 2016 in the United States alone, imports had increased by 400 percent since 1990,1 which means that more people are enjoying tea and the benefits it brings. To keep up with global demand, some countries are highly focused on growing tea leaves as a large part of their overall economy. China, for example, is the world’s largest producer of green tea, producing 1.5 million tons

By Dr. Mercola Studies have found strong links between acute and/or chronic stress and a wide variety of health issues, including your brain function and risk for dementia. For example, animal research1 published in 2014 reported that elevated levels of stress hormones can speed up short-term memory loss in older adults by inducing structural changes in the brain. The findings indicate that how your body responds to stress may be a factor that influences how your brain ages over time. Previous research has also linked chronic stress with working memory impairment2 and an increased risk for early onset of Alzheimer’s
