By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Seeds represent the foundation of life. We depend on them for food, for medicine and for our very survival. In many ways, you can trace the underpinnings of any given culture through the heritage of their crops and seeds. It wasn’t long ago when seeds were mostly the concern of farmers who, as the Worldwatch Institute put it, “were the seed producers and the guardians of societies’ crop heritage.”1 But this is no longer the case. Once considered to be the property of all, like water or even air, seeds have become largely …read

By Barbara Minton Extra virgin olive oil has become fashionable in health circles because it’s the predominant fat used in the Mediterranean diet, a diet shown to reduce risk of death for all causes. Italian extra virgin olive oil is considered the best, and it is the most highly sought. The only thing bothersome here is the fact that when you buy a bottle of Italian extra virgin olive oil, you may not get what you think you are getting, because olive oil tops the list for agricultural fraud. An intergovernmental organization known as the International Olive Council (IOC) based

By greenmedinfo FDA Corruption Constitutional Attorney, Jonathan Emord discusses how corruption within the Food and Drug Administration results in unsafe pharmaceutical drugs becoming available to the public. Few know that the FDA does not do any testing of the drugs, of which it approves; it relies entirely on the testing done by the advocates presenting their products for approval, which is done entirely with self-interest and in conflict of interest.

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Your body is a complex ecosystem made up of more than 100 trillion microbes that must be properly balanced and cared for you to achieve optimal health. This system of bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa living on your skin and in your mouth, nose, throat, lungs, gut, and urogenital tract is referred to as the “human microbiome.” It varies from person to person based on factors such as diet, health history, geographic location, and even ancestry. When your microbiome falls out of balance, you can become ill. Those organisms perform a multitude of functions

By Christina Sarich There’s Big Pharma, Big Ag, and now Big Sugar – all industries too sweet on the smell of money to be truthful about their products to the public. New information has come forth that proves the sugar industry knew their products would cause dental and health issues since the 1950’s, but they worked with our government agencies (cigarette-ad-campaign-style) to make sure we wouldn’t know the true damage sugar could cause until we were all addicted. Internal documents exchanged between a sugar industry trade association, representing 30 international sugar manufacturers and our government, prove that sugar companies knew

By Michelle Bosmier It’s pretty safe to say that nearly everyone has heard about the health-boosting benefits of smoothies, but what doesn’t get a lot of press is how they can provide you with the essential fiber your body needs to keep the plumbing clean and efficient! Naturally, a diet high in fiber-rich foods is the ideal goal (for example, fresh fruits, veggies, grains), but in a pinch – or even if you just love them – smoothies are a fabulous way to get your daily dose of fiber in! Speaking of daily dose, women should aim for 21 to

By Herw According to researchers with Thailand’s Chulalongkorn University, the ancient mulberry leaf can not only lessen arterial inflammation, but can lower both triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein levels as well. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, killing about 600,000 people each year. Poor diets, lack of physical exercise, and also exposure to environmental toxins are key factors in heart disease risk. But what if some of the physical risk factors for cardiovascular disease could be reduced significantly by something as unassuming as mulberry leaf? That’s just what some recent research has found. The researchers

Strawberries, real fresh organic berries, are good for warding off cancer, inflammation, and diabetes. One study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry discovered that strawberry extract decreased the chances of getting both colon and breast cancer, as well as

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola About one-third of Americans take multivitamin and mineral supplements, and this rises to more than 40 percent among older Americans.1 Despite their popularity, there’s been quite a bit of debate about whether or not they’re truly useful. In 2013, researchers at the Kaiser Permanente Center for Health Research went as far as to say that vitamin supplements are probably useless when it comes to preventing heart disease and/or cancer.2 That study was heavily criticized, in part because it reviewed studies containing doses of vitamins that were in some cases lower than …read more Read

By Phyllis Plants have developed complex responses to bacterial invasion, and offer long-term resistance to disease. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria, known as “superbugs,” are becoming more numerous and more virulent thanks to continuing overuse of antibiotics. Herbal medicine offers an alternative to these increasingly ineffective drugs. In the last few decades, extensive uses of antibiotics have led to an increase in the rate of antibiotic-resistant infections. And as a result people who are hospitalized because of common illnesses, cancer, heart disease or even accident injuries end up with hospital-acquired infections and some even die because of infections. “It is not difficult to

By noreply@blogger.com (Activist) By Heather Callaghan Unfortunately, many Americans simply skim headlines. They might even share information based solely on headlines. And it’s almost like both the media and research communities know this when they choose a headline. Especially when they choose headlines that have a deliberately opposite meaning than the content therein. When this writer came across headlines that suggested a new genetically engineered soybean oil was healthier to humans than conventional soybean oil – she just had to bite and see what is the newest GMO claim. “How healthy is genetically modified soybean oil?” one asks innocently.

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Anytime your body moves in a way that’s different from what your eyes see, motion sickness can develop. Your inner ear, or vestibular system, is involved in movement and balance. This system senses motion, such as when you’re in a car or on a ship, and expects your eyes to confirm it. When a mismatch or “sensory conflict” occurs, such as when you can feel the rolling of a ship but your eyes suggest you’re sitting still inside a cabin, nausea, vomiting, and dizziness – the hallmarks …read more Read more here: mercola
By Mike Barrett Tap water is by no means something to reach for when looking to achieve optimal health (check this out to see why that is). But unfortunately, the common alternative of bottled water isn’t really much better. Not only does the massive amount of plastic used to produce bottled water desecrate our lands and oceans, but research has actually found bottled water to harness thousands of health-destructive chemicals. German researchers have discovered endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in water bottles that could adversely affect development and reproduction. In fact, there are 24,520 suspect chemicals found to be present in

It turns out that an enzyme found in pineapples called bromelain does, in fact, have scientifically proven medicinal benefits. Two molecules isolated from an extract of crushed pineapple stems have even shown promise in fighting cancer growth. Studies have shown that bromelain reduces swelling, bruising, healing time and pain. An even more potent anti-inflammatory is ginger whose analgesic properties have been proven stronger than ibuprofen.

Unfortunately, little has been done to remedy the situation. As a result, we’re now faced not only with continued overtreatment of humans, but we’re also facing environmental destruction courtesy of what could be referred to as “drug pollution.” Our agricultural system is also contributing to water pollution that, in some areas, has led to an increase in diabetes and other health

By noreply@blogger.com (Activist Post) A tooth enamel abnormality in children, molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), may result from exposure to the industrial chemical bisphenol A (BPA), authors of a new study conclude after finding similar damage to the dental enamel of rats that received BPA. The study results will be presented Friday at the Endocrine Society’s 97th annual meeting in San Diego. “Human enamel defects may be used as an early marker of exposure to BPA and similar-acting endocrine disruptors,” Babajko said. BPA is an endocrine disruptor, or hormone-altering chemical, that has been linked to numerous adverse health effects in humans.
