Washington State University researchers have found a variety of diseases and other health problems in the second- and third-generation offspring of rats exposed to glyphosate, the world’s most popular weed killer. In the first study of its kind, the researchers saw descendants of exposed rats developing prostate, kidney and ovarian diseases, obesity and birth abnormalities. Michael Skinner, a WSU professor of biological sciences, and his colleagues exposed pregnant rats to the herbicide between their eighth and 14th days of gestation. The dose – half the amount expected to show no adverse effect – produced no apparent ill effects on either

By Dr. Mercola The first commercially available gene-edited food is now on the market, but consumers won’t know where it’s being sold or if they’ve eaten food that contains it. The product, a gene-edited soybean oil created by biotech company Calyxt, was picked up by its first user — a Midwest company with both restaurant and foodservice locations, which is using it for frying as well as in dressings and sauces.1 Calyxt’s soybean oil, Calyno, contains two inactivated genes, resulting in an oil with no trans fats, increased heart-healthy oleic acid and a longer shelf life. Along with refusing to

By pixieforest1 Exley co-authored, a research paper with this conclusion, “Nanomaterials can be transported by monocyte-lineage cells to DLNs, blood and spleen, and, similarly to HIV, may use CCL2-dependent mechanisms to penetrate the brain. This occurs at a very low rate in normal conditions explaining good overall tolerance of alum despite its strong neurotoxic potential. However, continuously escalating doses of this poorly biodegradable adjuvant in the population may become insidiously unsafe, especially in the case of over immunization or immature/altered blood brain barrier or high constitutive CCL-2 production.” During an episode of Del Bigtree’s ‘Highwire’ show Dr Exley tells us

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Modern medicine has brought about plenty of benefits – just not without its fair share of drawbacks. For example, the regrettable trend – over the past century – which has moved many conventionally-trained physicians away from the credo of Hippocrates: “Let thy food be thy medicine.” Yet, we know, that good food choices – like eating more (organic) veggies can have a major (positive) effect on our health. Of course, the healthcare system is notorious for pushing drugs that (maybe) “fix” problems rather than helping consumers prevent problems in the first place. Pardon the

Lawrence set the scene for the celebration service with the flag-draped casket of Kinchlow before him. In addition to being

Who cares what the vaccine tastes like? Why are they putting aspartame in vaccines? Some additional ingredients (as listed by the CDC in their website) include antibiotics which you could be allergic to; aluminum which when combined with silicon deficiency results in neurofibrillary tangles seen in Alzheimers; formaldehyde – a toxic carcinogenic substance used to preserve dead people; MSG – a potent excitotoxin which like aspartame can cause seizures and brain tumours; egg

Characterized by feelings of nervousness and restlessness, increased heart rate, hyperventilation, sweating, trembling, difficulty concentrating and uncontrolled worry, it has the ability to impact every area of one’s life. There are many theories regarding the root cause of the condition, including genetics, brain chemistry, environmental factors or other medical factors and/or disease, however, nothing has been proven

Pinto beans also have nutritional benefits that help boost heart health and could help the body fight off cancer. Pinto beans contain antioxidants called polyphenols, which may prevent some forms …read more Source: Ready Nutrition

By everybodysfit Vertigo is an off balanced sensation that makes a person feel like they are spinning and dizzy. There are a number of reasons one might experience this. It is most commonly associated with inner ear problems because the inner ear sends signals to the brain about movement. Other causes include Meniere’s disease, which is the buildup of fluid that causes pressure in the ear. Meniere’s can also cause ringing in the ears as well as hearing loss. Another cause of vertigo is associated with BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo) which is when tiny calcium particles clump up in

Experts now have reason to doubt the safety of an artificial sweetener. They are claimed to be calorie-free sugar alternative but in fact, maybe 200 times sweeter. The artificial sweetener is used in thousands of products including big brands. The experts have cast serious doubts and have safety questions.

The aspartame, an artificial sweetener is used in everything these days with a label “Calorie Free” and “Sugar-Free” for health-conscious people.

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) If you’re spending money on pharmaceutical medications and fancy new medical equipment, you’d like to think they’re actually working, right? Well, in a world where “big pharma” wields an enormous amount of power over the American public (through their lobbyists and the government), this isn’t something you should assume to be true. Just think of it this way: doctors, health officials, and skeptics are always happy to point out that supplements aren’t regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), so we should be wary of what we’re taking.

Millions of people who take aspirin to prevent a heart attack may need to rethink the pill-popping, Harvard researchers reported Monday. A daily low-dose aspirin is recommended for people who have already had a heart attack or stroke and for those diagnosed with heart disease. But for the otherwise healthy, that advice has been overturned. Guidelines released this year ruled out routine aspirin use for many older adults who don’t already have heart disease — and said it’s only for certain younger people under doctor’s orders. …read more Source: Sott health news feed
