By Julie Fidler Officials at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) say 1,300 patients who had open-heart surgery at a central Pennsylvania hospital since 2011 may have been exposed to a bacterial infection that has killed 4 patients. At least 8 patients treated at WellSpan York Hospital in York, Pennsylvania, have developed the bacterial infection, caused by nontuberculous mycobacterium, or NTM, from a medical device used during open-heart surgery. Four of those individuals have died, though it hasn’t been confirmed that the infection was the primary cause. [1] Last week, WellSpan York Hospital notified the 1,300 patients [More]

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola There is rarely a more nutritionally demanding time during a woman’s life than pregnancy (and later breastfeeding), when your intake of nutrients from foods and supplements are needed not only to keep your body running, but also to nourish and support your rapidly growing baby. Proper nutrition is crucial at all stages of fetal development (and even before conception), and if mom doesn’t eat right, her growing baby won’t either. For a succinct and easy-to-follow overview of the types of foods and nutrients that will support a healthy pregnancy, read my optimized nutrition plan. [More]
By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Lignans are a type of plant compound known as polyphenols. Lignan precursors are most abundant in flaxseeds, although they’re also found in other seeds (like sesame seeds), berries, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. When you consume lignan precursors, bacteria in your gut convert the “plant” lignans into “human” lignans, including enterodiol and enterolactone, which have weak estrogenic activity. This can be beneficial for women’s health, because if you have naturally high estrogen levels, the weak “estrogens” from lignans may bind to some of your estrogen receptor sites, thereby actually reducing total estrogen activity. As [More]

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola In March 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), which is the research arm of the World Health Organization (WHO), determined glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide, to be a “probable carcinogen” (Class 2A). This determination was based on evidence showing the popular weed killer can cause non-Hodgkin lymphoma and lung cancer in humans, along with “convincing evidence” it can also cause cancer in animals. Monsanto has maintained that the classification as a carcinogen is wrong and continues to tout glyphosate (and Roundup) as one of the safest pesticides on [More]
By Paul by Paul FassaHealth Impact News The now proven false claim that saturated fat causes heart health issues caused many to switch to a low or no-fat diet for decades. Naturally, children were affected also, and obesity rates climbed as a result. The problem is that low-fat foods contain higher amounts of added sugar and HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) to make them more palatable after removing wholesome fats. Along with the high carbohydrate craze, TV commercials got kids to insist on cereals with lots of added sugars and HFCS. Families also indulged in microwave oven prepared quick …read [More]

At least, that’s the conclusion reached by new research published Tuesday in the Annals of Internal Medicine. Analyzing data taken from the third version of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) , the researchers found…

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Oxybenzone is one of the most common ingredients added to sunscreens. Its primary function is to absorb ultraviolet light, and it’s found in 3,500 brands of sunscreen worldwide.1 The average person spending a day at the beach might slather on two to four ounces of sunscreen if they reapply it every two hours after swimming and sweating, which is a significant amount of this personal care product being absorbed by your skin and entering your body. However, some of the sunscreen also ends up in the water when you take a dip. And …read [More]

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Sleep apnea typically refers to impaired breathing from an obstructed airway during sleep, which can have serious health consequences. It’s a common problem, affecting more than half of all men and over one-quarter of women.1 It’s also becoming more prevalent among children, largely due to lack of breast feeding and eating processed foods. Snoring is a related problem, caused by a restriction in your airway stemming from either your throat or nasal passageway. The vibrations produced as the air struggles to get past your soft palate, uvula, tongue, tonsils, and/or muscles in the back [More]

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Drinking tea, which is a major source of dietary flavonoids, has been linked to higher bone density in observational studies. Flavonoids – antioxidant compounds found in certain fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices – are known for their role in helping to prevent chronic diseases like heart disease and cancer, but new research suggests they may play a significant role in bone health as well. Elderly women at high risk of fractures who drank three or more cups of flavonoid-rich black tea daily had a significantly lower risk of fracture-related hospitalizations than women who did [More]

There are thousands of natural compounds that have been studied with demonstrable anti-cancer activity (check out over 600 on our cancer research database), but only a small subset of these have been proven to target and kill the cancer stem cells which lie at the root of cancer malignancy. Turmeric, for instance, we have featured a number of times for this “smart kill” property of targeting just the heart of cancerous tumors. More recently, ginger has been found in pre-clinical research to contain a compound up to 10,000 times more effective than the chemotherapy drug Taxol at killing breast cancer [More]
By Alijuina Herw What Is Activated Charcoal? Charcoal is “activated” because it is made to have a very small particle size. This increases its overall surface area and absorptive capacity. People have been using activated charcoal for thousands of years. In World War I, activated charcoal was used mostly by Egyptians, Greeks & Americans to prevent soldiers from being poisoned by chemical exposure, and it has been used to treat water (making it tasteless and odorless) since 1930. Activated charcoal is usually derived from coconut shells, wood, or peat. What makes it “activated” is the additional process it undergoes after [More]
By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Antibiotics are a foundational component of modern medicine, without which many of our current treatment modalities and medical procedures become exceedingly dangerous. Due to overuse, and the downright reckless misuse of antibiotics for growth promotion purposes among livestock, bacteria are becoming increasingly resistant to these drugs. As a result, even “simple” infections like urinary tract infections can become lethal. A recent example that drives home this point is New York Giants player Daniel Fells, whose foot may have to be amputated due to an antibiotic-resistant infection. As reported by Scientific American:1 …read more Read [More]
By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Hemp has been called a plant of “major economic importance,” as it grows like a weed, yet can be used in the production of food, personal care products, textiles, paper, and even plastic and construction materials.1 Valued since ancient times as a fiber source for textiles, the hemp industry eventually made it to the US, where it flourished in the mid-1800s, through World War I and again briefly during World War II, when the war cut off supplies of fiber.2 In the …read more Read more here: mercola
