Processed food is the antithesis of a healthy diet for a number of different reasons, the addition of unregulated and often undisclosed chemicals being a significant one. Besides preservatives, emulsifiers, colors and flavors, which are generally listed, there are any number of others that do not have to be disclosed, as they’re considered “processing aids.” Additives are used in food processing to slow spoilage, prevent fats and oils from going rancid, prevent browning, and fortify or enrich the food with synthetic vitamins and minerals to replace the natural ones that were lost during processing. They’re also added to improve taste,

The startling figures are revealed in a study conducted by researchers from the Abigail Wexner Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Ohio, and published in the journal Clinical Pediatrics. Rebecca McAdams and colleagues found that there was no significant reduction over the years in the number of children rushed to emergency departments following harmful encounters with cosmetics and personal care products, with the rate remaining steady at 1.1 per 10,000.

But now, perhaps more than ever, many parents are horrified by what their children are being taught – especially when parents, despite their religious beliefs, have no say about the teaching materials. In a small California community, parents and clergy were so appalled at the explicit and LGBTQ-inspired lessons, they went

By Dr. Mercola Despite their tiny size, mosquitoes have been called the world’s most dangerous creature because they spread deadly diseases. More than half the people on Earth live in an area where disease-carrying mosquitoes are present and, every year, mosquitoes cause millions of deaths from diseases like malaria, dengue and yellow fever.1 Insecticides are considered to be one of the primary defenses against insects like mosquitoes, but they come with their own set of risks, not the least of which is the potential for resistance. The growing problem of insecticide resistance has not gone unnoticed by the World Health

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) A couple of the many unfortunate effects of the aging process is a reduction in skin tone and more wrinkles. This is largely due to a breakdown in cellular repair caused by the loss of a vital nutrient called, CoQ10. But, here’s the good news: replacement of this crucial nutrient can dramatically offset the effects of aging, according to several recently published studies. Keep in mind, CoQ10 helps in the cellular regenerative process, including fueling the mitochondria. And, as you probably know already, the mitochondria represent the cells’ power generators. They transform food …read

By Dr. Mercola The human body is a complex system with a unique elimination structure to get rid of waste products and balance water levels. The urinary system is one part that may provide clues about your overall health status. The system is made up of organs, muscles and nerves working together to create, store and excrete urine.1 You have two kidneys where the urine is created and two ureters transporting the urine into your bladder. The ureters enter at the top of the bladder on either side. At the bottom is a sphincter muscle leading into the urethra, which

However, the new study is eye-opening, once again hitting home the importance of healthy eating when it comes to keeping your mind strong as

A three-fold jump since 1975 in the percentage of adults worldwide who are obese has been driven mainly by a shift in diet and lack of exercise, but genes do play a role as well, according a large-scale study published Thursday. For people genetically predisposed to a wider girth, these unhealthy lifestyles compounded the problem, resulting in an even higher rate of weight gain, researchers reported in The BMJ, a peer-reviewed medical journal. The standard measure for obesity, the Body-Mass Index (BMI), is calculated on the basis of weight and height. …read more Source: Sott health news feed

The ontology and ecology of food Food is not a commodity, it is not “stuff” put together mechanically and artificially in labs and factories. Food is life. Food holds the contributions of all beings that make the food web, and it holds the potential of maintaining and regenerating the web of life. Food also holds the potential for health and disease, depending on how it was grown and processed. Food is therefore the living currency of the web of life. As an ancient Upanishad reminds us “Everything is food, everything is something else’s food. ” Good Food and Real Food
