Cilantro is a member of the mint family, and it has a taste that you either love it or hate it the first time. It is a principal herb to flavor Mexican and Hispanic dishes. Indeed, fajitas are replete with it, and incomplete without it. From an herbal perspective, it has been used with many ailments, such as nausea,

By Dr. Mercola Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup herbicide, is a chemical worthy of attention, in part because no other pesticide has come even close to its “intensive and widespread use.”1 The data on just how much glyphosate is sprayed in the U.S. is mind boggling, and adds up to over 1.6 billion kilograms (3.5 billion pounds) applied since 1974. This represents 19% of the glyphosate used globally during that time, and the majority (two-thirds of glyphosate applied from 1974 to 2014) has been applied in the last 10 years.2 Glyphosate …read more Source: mercola

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Complaints of fatigue, swelling of hands and feet, and difficulties breathing are too-common laments from older adults. Unfortunately, these are signs of congestive heart failure and, most people never hear about the benefits of CoQ10 for this condition. But, scientific studies are revealing that the mitochondrial energizer coenzyme Q10 – or CoQ10 for short – can relieve many of the symptoms and physical challenges attributed to congestive heart failure. Does your doctor know about the benefits of CoQ10? Your heart uses more energy than any other tissue in your body, and it also typically

By Dr. Mercola You may not know or recognize his name, but Austrian Friedrich Serturner was a pharmacist’s assistant who, through 14 years of research and testing, isolated the purest form of the alkaloid base compound morphine from opium poppies.1 He found the opium with the alkaloid removed was not effective on animals, but the alkaloid was 10 times more powerful than the processed opium.2 After spending years testing on himself, he died chronically depressed and addicted to morphine.3 By the mid-1820s morphine was used across Western Europe, provided by several sources, including a new chemical company started by Heinrich

The 2018 DW Documentary, “The Mysterious World Beneath the Skin,” delves into the workings and functions of your fascia, the fibrous connective tissue found throughout your body. Remarkably, this thin layer of tissue accounts for about 20 percent of your body mass. As explained by Dr. Jerry Tennant in his book, “Healing Is Voltage: The Handbook,” your muscles are stacked one on top of the other in a specific order (much like batteries in a flashlight) to form a power pack. Each organ has its own battery pack, which is a stack of muscle batteries. These muscle batteries are in

Most are still suffering economically and psychologically there, under extremely difficult circumstances. These Assyrian Christians are in Jordan on a temporary basis with plans to emigrate to a third country. However, as they have not been given official work permits by the Jordanian government, they largely rely on their savings, remittances sent by relatives abroad

New research is showing the profound benefits — for weight, longevity and fighting disease — of eating only during limited hours Fasting is one of the biggest weight-loss trends to arise in recent years. Endorsed by A-list celebrities and the subject of a spate of best-selling books, it was the eighth most-Googled diet in America in 2018. But fasting shouldn’t be dismissed as just another fad.

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.

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
