By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Heartburn drugs are among the most popular medications in the world, with an estimated market value of over $5 billion in 2017. Despite their popularity – as many as 15 million Americans take prescription options, many more use over-the-counter options. But, non-prescription acid reflux medications also have their fair share of controversy, including nationwide recalls and a host of unwanted side effects. Here’s another thing that’s hard to swallow (pun intended): recent research reveals that heartburn medication may increase the risk of heart disease and stomach cancer, along with a variety of other potentially

By Dr. Mercola In assessing the validity of medical trials, an inactive control, or placebo, is considered essential in producing high-quality evidence. Randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled studies are, in fact, considered to be the “gold standard,” as good as it gets in terms of epidemiologic studies.1 The assumption here is that the placebo is inert, i.e., is a substance that has no effect on your body. The reason this is an assumption is that, typically, the contents of the placebo in a study are not disclosed — not to the subjects of the study nor in the subsequent peer-reviewed journal publication.

By everybodysfit An ingrown toenail, also called onychocryptosis, is the result of the corner or the side of a nail growing into the toe’s flesh. The pressure of the nail is pushing against sensitive skin. The edge of the sharp nail breaks the skin. The most common area is on the big toe. This can happen because a person has cut their toenails too short, wearing shoes that are very tight and crowding the toes, or an injury to the toenail. The area becomes red, swells, and feels very painful. It is important to wear shoes that fit properly taking

By Dr. Mercola Do you start your day with coffee and end it with tea? Consider tempting your taste buds with a warm cup of golden milk instead. And, as the summer months approach, you can enjoy it as a tasty cold treat as well. Golden milk is not made with a dairy product but, rather, with coconut milk. You’ll find other recipes using other nondairy products, but I recommend coconut milk for the health benefits and the superior taste.

Impairing their ability to climb trees and run races, over a third are encumbered — at even the youngest ages — with runaway weight and associated sequelae like high blood pressure.
