By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Sleep is an integral part of being human, but one that, unfortunately, many people struggle with. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which has called insufficient sleep a public health problem, states that 1 in 3 adults don’t get enough sleep.1 The number may be even higher in actuality, as they used seven hours or more a night as a “healthy sleep duration.” Although everyone’s sleep needs vary, most adults probably need closer to eight hours of sleep a night to reap its full benefits. If you don’t get enough sleep,

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola According to recent research, pain can spread among mice by way of smell, suggesting physical pain — at least among animals — can develop as a result of social cues alone. In other words, pain may be contagious.1 While researchers are not suggesting the same is happening among humans just yet, the discovery has significant implications for scientists working on addiction withdrawal (which tends to lower pain tolerance) and various drugs, especially pain relieving medications. As reported by STAT News:2 “Researchers are now wondering whether past studies might have overlooked some mice’s pain …read

By Julie Fidler Do you regularly drop $200 on shoes? Is your spouse mad at you for buying a sports car? Do you make 5 trips to the all-you-can-eat buffet? Well, you’re probably selfish. At least, that’s what a new study says. Neuroscience researchers from the University of Zurich say if you’re the impulsive type, you probably have difficulty walking in somebody else’s shoes, figuratively speaking. Impulse control, they claim, is rooted in a region of the brain called the posterior tempero-parietal junction (pTPJ), which helps you better see the world from someone else’s perspective.

The demand for wet wipes began in the early 1970s when the industry expanded the single-packed, alcohol-soaked wet towelette product your mom or grandma may have carried in her purse in the ‘50s and ‘60s, into a line of wet wipes for baby’s bottoms (patented in 1972 with the brand name “Wet Ones”).

The spuds have a lower amount of a potentially carcinogenic chemical created when potatoes are cooked at high temperatures. Before the GMO potatoes can

When it comes to recommendations on healthy food choices, the last reputable source is often public health. This usually stems from a lack of integrity and biased conclusions forced upon public officials by special interests. Our society’s bias against saturated fat and cholesterol has become so strong that we often forget that in nature those are the exact foods where the most nutrients are found. Eggs are no different and more evidence continues to shed light that their regular consumption helps prevent heart attacks and strokes, something unheard of a few decades ago. …read more Read more here: Prevent Disease

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola In your musings about odd things, it may have occurred to you to wonder, if butter is basically made from the skimmings of milk, and milk is white, why is butter yellow? When you think about butter making, it’s a multi-step process, starting with cows. Cows, in the best and most natural way, eat grass and flowers which contain the yellow pigment beta-carotene, and store the pigments in their fat. You get milk, cream, butter and other dairy foods from cows, and all (optimally) contain the fat with the beta-carotene, as well as the

Neurotransmitters are chemicals in the brain that act as messengers between neurons. The effects of neurotransmitters are far-reaching and encompass most bodily processes, including: physical and cognitive performance, weight, the perception and response to pain, sleep patterns and our emotional and mental state of being. If neurotransmitter chemicals are imbalanced, the entire body is thrown off kilter, and it is estimated that 80 percent of people have some form of neurotransmitter imbalance. …read more Read more here: Prevent Disease

By Julie Fidler In a policy statement released October 24, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that infants should sleep in the same room as parents to lower the risk of sleep-related deaths. [1] The group, which offers guidance on child-rearing, says that newborns should be placed to sleep in their parents’ bedroom on a separate, firm surface, such as a crib or bassinet, for at least the first 6 months of life and, ideally, the first full year. This, the academy says, lowers risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) by as much as 50%. Dr. Lori Feldman-Winter,
