By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola More than 33,000 Americans were killed by opioids in 2015, and nearly half of them involved a prescription for the drugs. Each day, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) notes, 91 Americans die from an opioid overdose, and the numbers keep rising, nearly quadrupling since 2015.1 Knowing that these drugs carry the serious risk of addiction, abuse and overdose, they should be prescribed sparingly and only for the most severe cases of pain, for which no other options are available. Instead, they are often prescribed widely to treat milder cases of [More]
By Thomasina Copenhaver Recently, someone, I care very deeply about told me that she did not want to take statins but her nurse practitioner told her she had to– because her coronary arteries showed plaque build-up aka atherosclerosis. Her insurance would pay for a new statin injection, but not for statin pills. Despite my rants about the dangers of statin drugs, she was absolutely convinced she needed them or she would die. She was going to discuss her options with her heart doctor but he was out on leave due to having a heart attack. Ironic? True story. She isn’t [More]
By Julie Fidler If you mindlessly watch TV, you could easily wind up wasting the entire day. If you mindlessly drive, you could wind up getting lost, or worse. Likewise, mindlessly eating will cause you to gain weight, especially if the food is void of nutrition. The exact opposite is also true, a study found – giving your full attention to the food in front of you can lead to weight loss. [1] Carolyn Dunn, a professor and nutrition specialist at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, and a team of colleagues evaluated the effectiveness of increasing mindful eating in [More]

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola While often overlooked, your dental health can have a significant impact on your overall health. It’s difficult to achieve high-level physical health if your oral health is ignored. Dr.Gerry Curatola, founder of Rejuvenation Dentistry, has over 30 years’ experience in biological dentistry. As Curatola notes, your mouth is your “gateway to total body wellness.” Indeed, thousands of studies have linked oral disease to systemic disease. Inflammation is known to be a disease-causing force leading to most chronic illness, and gum disease and other oral diseases produce chronic low-grade inflammation that can have a deleterious [More]
By Jonathan Landsman (NaturalHealth365) According to the CDC, breast cancer – the most common cause of cancer in women – claimed over 41,000 lives in 2014 alone. Yet integrative healthcare providers, like Dr. Daniel Cobb, say that the toll from this horrible disease could be sharply reduced by simply understanding the value of nutritional supplementation – especially the use of vitamin D. In fact, Dr. Cobb notes that many experts estimate that breast cancer cases would be reduced by 100,000 cases per year – and possibly eliminated entirely – by …read more Source: Natural Health 365     
By Dr. Serge Gregoire I used to have severe reactions to fragrances and many other chemicals in our air. I was practically allergic to everything, including lots of foods and pollen (1). For a while there, I was housebound. First, I bought an air purifier that had a filter made of coconut shell carbon and zeolite. It helped dramatically. I filtered my water for drinking and bathing too. Next, I eliminated household chemical cleaners, pesticides, all lawn care chemicals and replaced with healthier alternatives. I found natural body care products. Then, I realized that chemical sensitivities are developed because the [More]
By Hesh Goldstein We are living in a time that makes great demands upon our efforts to keep healthy through a well-managed dietary program. With all the devitalized and synthetic foodstuffs at our disposal, it is often very difficult to obtain the necessary natural foods that will keep our bodies in good health. Millions of hard-earned dollars are being wasted by way of our mouths. All of us are hungry for those necessary requirements that our “All-Knowing” Creator designed our bodies to have, to maintain a healthy, vigorous and responsive body. We can no longer depend upon nature alone to [More]
By olivia Recognition is something every community craves for. And, while not every city can become the next Silicon Valley, Tampa is striving to make its mark elsewhere – namely the healthcare industry. The Tampa Bay region hopes to become a market leader by 2023 (Source: www.abcactionnews.com), and considering that healthcare earnings in the state grew by $3.75 billion in 2015, this does not seem like an improbability (Source: www.tampabay.com). What this means is, Tampa residents will be spoilt for choice when it comes to healthcare options in the coming years. In fact, the city already has a strong network [More]

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola If you plan on making a salad, some kind of soup or a savory stir-fry, onions will most likely be part of the equation. You might also slice them into rings to place on sandwiches, or sauté them gently in coconut oil or grass fed butter until they’re soft, translucent and absolutely delicious. But something else may be likely as well: When you’re cutting or chopping them, before you get very far into the first onion, you’re very likely to find your nose twitching and tears making your eyes smart. Medical News Today suggests [More]
By Dr. Mercola What Is Lovage Oil? Lovage oil is derived from both the roots and the leaves of the lovage plant (Levisticum officinale), a hardy, herbaceous perennial native to southern parts of Europe. Also called bastard celery in France and love parsley in England, lovage can grow up to 2 meters (6 feet) in height and resembles other umbellifers such as fennel, coriander and parsley, with large umbels of yellow-green flowers with seeds. Depending on whether the roots are fresh or dried at the time of distillation, lovage oil can be yellow or dark brown in color. It’s quite [More]

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Most people are aware that chemotherapy, a primary cancer treatment, can cause harsh chemotherapy side effects. However, now research by Tsonwin Hai and his team of scientists is showing that chemotherapy can actually trigger cellular responses that lead to the spread of more cancer in adjacent areas. Breast cancer survival rates have been improving in recent years. However, this news that chemotherapy can actually promote the spread of cancer would make it by far one of the most disturbing chemotherapy side effects ever documented. Common chemotherapy treatment …read more Source: Natural Health 365

By Julie Fidler About 90% of all lung cancers are caused by cigarette smoking. Smoking kills 7 million people a year, speeds aging, destroys the heart and cardiovascular system, and leads to asthma and COPD. But cigarettes don’t just wreak havoc on the human body; they also wreak havoc on the environment through deforestation, pollution, and littering. [1] [2] In May, the World Health Organization (WHO) released a study detailing the environmental costs of tobacco, adding to the mind-blowing $1.4 trillion in healthcare costs and lost productivity. The report looks at the immediate environmental damage caused by tobacco consumption, as [More]
Researchers in Finland have found that when you’re working out, the level of endoprhins released in the brain directly correlates to the intensity of exercise you’re doing. That’s a good thing for people doing high intensity interval training, or HIIT, because HIIT can be miserable. …read more Source: Prevent Disease     
By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) “Giving up junk food.” “Getting off the sofa.” “Quitting smoking.” These are the common, and beneficial, lifestyle changes that many people adopt when they become serious about avoiding heart disease and cancer. But, what about poor oral health? (does your doctor appreciate the danger?) I understand: making an appointment with a licensed dental hygienist just doesn’t have the same sense of urgency as seeing your cardiologist for a checkup – but, maybe it should. When it comes to preventing chronic, life-threatening diseases, maintaining good oral health …read more Source: Natural Health 365

By Lindsay Sheehan The old-timey technique of saving seeds from one growing season to the next is practical, self-sufficient, and pennywise. Not only will you never need to purchase another packet of seeds again, harvesting seeds from a tasty fruit or vegetable that you know grows well in your yard means you can grow it year after year. If you’ve ever felt the pain and disappointment upon seeing that your favorite cultivars have been discontinued by the seed company, saving seeds can be priceless! Moreover, saving seeds helps preserve genetic diversity. Our dependence on commercial varieties has caused thousands of [More]
