By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola In 2014, nearly 10 percent of the entire swine population in the U.S. was wiped out by the Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus (PEDv) — a highly lethal virus traced back to pig’s blood used in piglet feed.

This is especially true for herbivores like cows, where the practice is associated with lethal Mad Cow disease. Pigs are omnivores, but even there the

“Sit up straight son,” said practically every parent around the world at some point. It’s been drilled into us that bad posture will be the source of great pain and discomfort in the future if not corrected. But what if there is no bad posture? What if our posture is a reflection of who we are and changing it has nothing to with either a rudimentary adjustment of joints and muscles or mental focus on obtaining that perfect plumb line. Many postural correction inventions and therapeutic manipulations will have you believe that there is a perfect posture to be attained.

By Chloe Paltrow Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) has received an increased popularity and recognition in the recent times. Many people have experienced significant improvements after undergoing HBOT, for several medical conditions. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a medical treatment involving the use of 100% oxygen at an atmospheric pressure that is higher than normal. Usually, we breathe in about 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen.
