By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Do annual mammograms save lives? Several studies over the past few years have concluded that mammograms do not save lives, and may actually harm more women than they help, courtesy of false positives, overtreatment, and radiation-induced cancers. According to research1 published in 2010, the reduction in mortality as a result of mammographic screening was so small as to be nonexistent — a mere 2.4 deaths per 100,000 person-years were spared. Another study2 published in The Lancet Oncology in 2011 demonstrated, for the first time, that women who received the most breast screenings had a

By Skye Ranier Recent research from a number of top universities is showing that digestive system imbalances might be the culprit behind persistent health problems and returning to good health could be as elemental as “listening to your gut.” In our prevailing culture of illness (a trillion-dollar worldwide sickness industry, according to the documentary Food Matters), western medicine focuses on treating symptoms with pharmaceuticals instead of addressing the underlying causes, which are frequently tied back to digestive system imbalances resulting from the overuse of antibiotics and introduction of toxins into the system from GMOs, processed foods, chlorinated drinking water, among

By Herw Hippocrates said, “Let your food be your medicine, and your medicine be your food.” Never is this more true than providing what your body needs to fight infection. Antibiotics are the most commonly prescribed drugs worldwide to treat bacterial infections. But it has many negative side effects. They kill gut bacteria, mess up our digestive system, lower immunity, and give rise to the development of super-bacteria that become resistant to the most powerful drugs, which can be very dangerous. It’s widely recognized that antibiotics may be over-prescribed in the US, and that fact can contribute to antibiotic resistance.

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola The digestive process seems simple on the surface. You put a food in your mouth, chew it up, and swallow. Then your body breaks down your food into components your body can utilize and absorb. Whatever’s left gets excreted as waste. In reality, however, digestion is a complex process that can be easily sidelined by a number of factors, from not chewing your food enough to lacking enzymes, stomach acid, or the right balance of microbes to properly digest your food and absorb its nutrients. The foods you eat can also make or break
