While humans sleep, huge waves of the cerebrospinal fluid that envelops the brain rhythmically flow in and out of the organ, according to a new study published today (October 31) in Science. The authors show that these CSF dynamics are connected to slow waves of neuronal activity, which are characteristic of deep sleep, and corresponding oscillations in the brain’s blood volume. Coupled with recent indications that CSF clears waste products from the brain, the findings shed light on the benefits of sleep for the central nervous system. The work “is exciting because it’s linking neural activity to blood flow and [More]
By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) According to the World Health Organization (WHO), chronic illness will account for 70% of all global deaths in 2020. The WHO also states that at least 60% of a person’s health and quality of life is directly related to their lifestyle. Not genes, family history, and “luck of the draw,” but lifestyle. Unfortunately, one of the most common and increasingly prevalent health issues, metabolic syndrome – which is strongly linked to lifestyle – currently affects millions of Americans, and many aren’t even aware they have it! In this article, we’re visiting a 2015 paper [More]
By Christine M. Dionese, L.Ac, MSTOM (NaturalHealth365) In an attempt to clear out all of the undesirable bacterial invaders that enter the home each day, millions of Americans spray and wash with antibacterial soaps. Yet, most people never get told that “cleaning” with these products actually cause more harm than good, like increasing the risk of antibiotic resistance. So, if you think those antibacterial soaps and cleaners are “enhancing” your immunity, think again! Even the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that any substantial data fails to support this claim. In fact, many household chemicals have actually …read [More]
By Dr. Mercola Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common and undertreated condition. A disruption of the natural vaginal microbiome, BV is believed to afflict up to a third of women of reproductive age. Though often not serious unto itself,1 BV can predispose a woman to an increased risk of upper genital-tract infections, greater susceptibility to sexually transmitted infections and pregnancy complications.2 It is often characterized by a malodorous discharge.3 BV is usually treated with antibiotics but, as I have often pointed out in my newsletters, sometimes antibiotics can do more harm than good. In the case of BV, the harmful [More]
By AdminM by The Vaccine Reaction A recent small study out of Tufts University Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts has concluded that, “inflammation may be the main driver behind autism.”?1 As reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the researchers compared the brains of 16 deceased male, Caucasian children between the ages of three and 14. Eight of the children had autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and eight did not. The study determined that the children with ASD all had increased levels of Interleukin-18 (IL-18), a protein known to trigger a severe inflammatory response. The areas …read more [More]

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Despite their high fat content, it’s long been understood that nuts can still have their place in a healthy diet. In fact, we now know that the ‘carb-craze’ of the last few decades had it all wrong. Healthy fats, like those found in walnuts, are essential for brain and heart function plus improved nutrient absorption. But a new study at the University of California, Davis, provides further evidence supporting earlier research results indicating that walnuts, in particular, help to reduce levels of a hormone thought to increase the incidence of prostate and breast cancer.

11/08/19   Fewer than one in five people, 18 per cent, in England and Wales say that the Bible is relevant to them, as the number of those professing a Christian faith continues to fall.   That proportion is less than half those that profess the Christian faith, which is 40 per cent, according to a study of 20,000 people carried out by the Bible Society, according to Premier Christian Rado.   The findings come as a separate survey published four months ago revealed that Christianity continues to fall in the United Kingdom.

By Linda Kordich (NaturalHealth365) Many decades ago, Jay and I used to speak about the (undiscovered) healing power of juices. We didn’t have words connected to the hidden power behind chlorophyll, yet we knew that the dark leafy greens were the powerhouses behind the thousands of people healing from diet-related diseases. Unfortunately, most conventionally-trained physicians still don’t use ‘food therapy’ as their first line of defense against disease. In reality, modern medicine is only centered around toxic drugs and surgical procedures – simply because they were never taught the value of nutrition in medical school. Why don’t doctors know about [More]
According to a new study, published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism health scientists at the universities of Bath and Birmingham found that by changing the timing of when you eat and exercise, people can better control their blood sugar levels. The six-week study, which involved thirty men classified as obese or overweight and compared results from two intervention groups (who ate breakfast before / after exercise) and a control group (who made no lifestyle changes), found that people who performed exercise before breakfast burned double the amount of fat than the group who exercised after breakfast. They [More]
A recent proposal by US pediatricians to endorse bariatric treatments for children is raising concerns that it is driven primarily by financial interests. Critics say stomach surgeries won’t fix the root causes of the problem. Almost 10 percent of children in the US aged 12-15 and 14 percent of those aged 16-19 are considered obese, according to the most recent data cited by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), an Illinois-based professional association. Almost 4.5 million American adolescents are severely obese, double the number recorded in 1999, the AAP says. To combat the problem, the AAP has published a new [More]
New research claims to link the use of acetaminophen during pregnancy to an increased risk of your child having ADHD or autism. Researchers from Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health examined umbilical cord blood samples and found a higher risk of both disorders where the drug was present. In fact, they say children exposed to the drug, also known by the brand name Tylenol, or paracetamol in Europe, in utero were twice as likely to have some type of developmental disorder – or a combination of the two – than to not have one. …read more Source: Sott [More]
By AdminM Health Impact News School officials in Philadelphia are reportedly prepared to start doing home visits for students that have not provided medical records showing that they are up-to-date on their vaccines. The Philadelphia Inquirer reports: Over the summer, parents of Philadelphia students got phone calls, text messages, and letters reminding them to have their children vaccinated.

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Whether you are fat or thin may be a family trait, but not just through the inheritance of poor eating habits and a tradition of second helpings. But, before you jump to conclusions, this is not your typical story about genetics and if you want to avoid degenerative disease – I suggest you carefully read this story. Results of a human genetics and gut bacteria study, published in the scientific journal Cell, show that our genes determine the type of microbes thriving in our gut – which in turn determines gut health and a [More]

By Dr. Mercola When it comes to the use of sunscreens, the pendulum has swung dangerously backward. People have been made to so fear the sun that we are now seeing vitamin D deficiencies, a serious problem because your cells need the active form of the vitamin to access to the genetic blueprints stored inside cells. The authors of recent research published in the International Journal of Environmental Research suggest that low sun exposure may be correlated with the development of “specific cancers, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, autism, Alzheimer’s disease and age-related macular degeneration.”1 But, just as significantly, we [More]

The powerful government-pharmaceutical industry partnership that has been foisting human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination on girls and boys around the world since 2006 now has working-age adults within its sights. Merck’s Gardasil 9 received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for expanded use in the 27-45 age group in late 2018, and there are signs that a campaign is afoot to achieve the same end result in other countries. Merck … dismissed as irrelevant the serious medical conditions that arose — within seven months — in half of all participants who received the vaccine. HPV vaccines have been linked to [More]

By Dr. Mercola The loss of muscle mass that occurs with age is known as sarcopenia, the most obvious cause of which is inactivity. Sarcopenia can progress at a rate of approximately 0.8% skeletal muscle loss per year from the fifth decade in adult life.1 It has an estimated prevalence of 10% in adults older than 60 years,2 rising to more than 50% in adults older than 80 years.3,4 Your diet also plays a role, as your muscles need sufficient amounts of protein to stay viable, as does your ability to …read more Source: mercola     
By Dr. Mercola If you live in the U.S. and frequent Costco, you’re probably familiar with their $4.99 rotisserie chicken. It’s one of the standard items Costco sells that pull in repeat customers. As reported by CNN:1 “The chickens have become almost a cult item. 91 million were sold last year, double the number from a decade earlier. They have their own Facebook page with nearly 13,000 followers. So Costco is willing to go to extreme lengths to keep its chickens at $4.99.” However, as with all foods raised in concentrated animal feeding …read more Source: mercola     
Another rigorous analysis of the science on processed meat shows evidence is weak and uncertain A new re-analysis of the science concerning links between processed meat and chronic disease indicates that studies showing a relationship between the two are very low quality and suffer from, as the authors put it, “serious risk of bias and imprecision.” This conclusion is unsurprising, as it follows a recent set of analyses that rocked the nutrition world. That earlier set of studies, published in Annals of Internal Medicine earlier this month, concluded that guidelines warning us to consume less red and processed meat are [More]
