Some of the places in your kitchen that may be dirtier than a toilet include your kitchen sponge, sink, cutting board, refrigerator door handle and kitchen countertops. According to Dr. Neil Schachter, author of “The Good Doctor’s Guide to Colds and Flu,”2 some of the germiest community places include public restrooms, your child’s school or day care, public transportation and your doctor’s office.

By Lori Alton, staff writer (Naturalhealth365) According to The Vision Council, almost 90 percent of American adults use digital devices – including notebooks, laptops and smartphones – for two or more hours a day. And the resultant barrage of blue light (coming off these devices) is raising lots of red flags. Recent studies have sparked concern among natural health experts that blue light from the screens of digital devices could cause optical problems, ranging from eye strain to increased risk of macular degeneration. Macular degeneration – a disorder affecting the retina that …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Michelle Goldstein We’ve all heard that the sun is dangerous and we need to protect our skin and eyes from this evil force of nature. Is this the whole story? Is there another view? Like most of us, a good part of my life was spent wearing my cool shades and using sunscreen to protect my skin from skin cancer. More recently, I’ve adopted the opposite viewpoint that the more sun I can get, the better I’ll feel. I go out of my way to go outside first thing in the morning without my prescription glasses, so that both

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) What most people have known their whole lives is now being verified by formal research. A healthy diet loaded with plenty of organic (chemical free) fruits and vegetables can make all the difference in the world, according to University of Florida researchers.

This is particularly important for cancer patients because those eating this …read more Source: Natural Health 365

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Most flu vaccines in the U.S. are grown in chicken eggs, but during the 2017 to 2018 flu season, a cell-based flu vaccine, Flucelvax, grown in dog kidney cells became available. This vaccine was licensed in 2012 and is approved for individuals aged 4 years and over. As the effectiveness of conventional flu shots continues to leave much to be desired, the new Flucelvax vaccine was touted as a new-and-improved version that would protect more people once flu season hit. In reality, a study by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) revealed the

Your cells actually need the active form of vitamin D to gain access to the genetic blueprints stored inside. This is one of the reasons why vitamin D has the ability to impact such a wide variety of health problems — from fetal development to cancer.

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) A “tipping point” at a molecular level has been found connecting Alzheimer’s disease and high blood sugar levels. Researchers from the University of Bath and Wolfson Centre for Age Related Diseases, King’s College London have determined excess glucose due to overindulging in processed sugars can damage a vital enzyme related to inflammation in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. Very high blood sugar levels, also known as hyperglycemia, is very common in cases of obesity and diabetes. However, a correlation between Alzheimer’s disease and high blood …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Debbie Wolfe Wax melts are scented pieces of wax, without a wick, that are melted in a warmer to release a fragrance. They are a great way to try out different aromas without having to invest in several types of candles. Wax melts last longer than a standard candle and are highly customizable. Unlike candles, the wax does not evaporate; only the scent dissipates. Once you can no longer smell the fragrance, you can reuse it to make more wax melts. They are super easy to make with just two items! If you need some inspiration for fragrance combinations

By AdminM by Paul FassaHealth Impact News So far this year, 2018, the cannabis news has been mostly positive. In a recent Health Impact News report, many of the cannabis initiatives we discussed are now starting to become reality. Perhaps the biggest surprise, seemingly out of nowhere, is the push for legalizing industrial hemp nationally. Efforts to legalize industrial hemp has actually passed in the Senate, but not as a stand-alone bill. The wording that would exempt growing industrial hemp from marijuana laws was included as a clause in the Senate Farm Bill of 2018. Now it’s the House’s turn

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Most poisonous plants are invasive weeds, including poison ivy, oak, sumac and the plant recently discovered in Virginia — giant hogweed. Giant hogweed is on the federal noxious weed list, which means it is unlawful to propagate, sell or transport it across state lines as it is invasive and often crowds out native plants. While poison ivy, oak and sumac often are hidden among other low-lying bushes or found growing up trees, giant hogweed, which can reach a height of 10 to 15 feet, is a striking and dangerous plant. While each of these

By Susan Patterson The first Japanese beetle found in America was discovered in New Jersey in 1916. Prior to this time, the beetle was only found in Japan where it is not a major pest. In 1937, beetles were discovered in Kentucky. By the 1950’s and the 1960’s the population of beetles rose quickly and spread throughout Kentucky and into other states. The eastern part of the US provides plenty of grass where grubs can live and numerous species of plants on which adults feed. This, along with no real effective natural enemies makes this part of the country a

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola If you intend to live a long and healthy life, sleep needs to be a priority. Anyone struggling with chronic disease — which is at least half the adult population in the U.S. — would be wise to take heed, as sleep cannot only contribute to the problem but also counteract any healthy lifestyle strategies you’re using to address it. As a general guideline, seek to get right around eight hours of sleep every night. Anything below seven hours really starts to impact your health (if you’re an adult). The good news is there
