Sunglasses trick the brain into thinking it’s dark and prevent it from producing a hormone that protects against sunburn, according to new research. Emerging research is illuminating the dark side of wearing sunshades. Sunglasses block UV light from entering the pineal gland through the optic nerves in the eyes. This prevents the brain from sending the signal to the pituitary gland to produce melanin, the pigment that tans the skin and protects it from burning. …read more Source: Sott health news feed

By Dr. Mercola Stress is a response in the body that enables us to run, take down prey or run from predators, also known as the flight-or-fight response.

In other words, the body sometimes has a difficult time turning stress off. The good news is there are several strategies you might consider to relieve the response and reduce the negative

By Dr. Mercola Cancer is a disease of uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells, also called a malignant growth or tumor. In 1971,1 President Richard Nixon declared war on cancer, signing the National Cancer Act. His goal was to make a national commitment to find a cure, after which Fort Detrick was converted to a cancer research center and renamed the Frederick Cancer Research and Development Center. Since then a number of chemotherapeutic and surgical treatments have been developed in an effort to treat cancer.2 In 1991, mortality rates from cancer began to decline, falling 0.5% per year from 1990 to

Syphilis stopped being “a disease of the past” after its worrying resurgence in Europe, health experts told RT. Less fear of contracting HIV and the rise of dating apps are among the factors behind the problem. The spread of syphilis in Europe is intensifying due to worrying trends in human behavior, the head of the HIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted infections and viral hepatitis program at the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), Andrew Amato-Gauci, told RT. Various factors play into the outbreak, such as “people having sex without condoms, multiple sexual partners and a reduced fear of acquiring HIV

By Dr. Mercola You don’t have to look far to find options for eating — aka “diets” — designed to help you lose weight, build muscle or otherwise optimize your health. There’s the keto diet, which focuses on burning fat for fuel, the paleo diet, aimed at consuming what our hunter-gatherer ancestors may have eaten, gluten-free and vegetarian/vegan modes of eating, just to name a few. Now there’s the OMAD diet, the acronym for “one meal a day.” It’s been called an extreme form of intermittent fasting (or 16/8), and involves eating all your nutrients in a one-hour time slot

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) For some, the flu causes more than the classic symptoms of sneezing, coughing, fever and aching joints – on occasion, it can turn deadly. For example, during the H1N1 pandemic of 2009-2010, the CDC reported that the virus hospitalized over a quarter of a million people and claimed over 12,000 lives in the United States alone. Sadly, most conventionally-trained physicians know little about how good nutrition – like the power of quercetin – can help protect us from harm. First, as a little background: Western medicine already acknowledges that genetic variations of the influenza

07/29/19 Members of the Crown Prosecution Service in the United Kingdom – the equivalent of the U.S. Justice Department – must follow a new “thought crime” standard based on the alleged victim’s personal “perception.” In other words, prosecutors must regard a crime as being motivated by hate if the person “perceives” himself to be of a protected class and “perceives” that the accused was motivated by hate. The concept was featured by George Orwell in his book “1984,” which described a thought crime as a politically unorthodox belief, such as “doubts that contradict” the government’s prescribed belief system.

It seems everyone these days is experiencing some level of stress, with most of us having what we’d probably classify as too much stress. But despite the common goal of a stress-free existence, a certain level of periodic stress is actually necessary for the organism to function properly. Anything can be a stress on the body, whether it’s work, relationships, toxic exposure, injury or even poor eating habits or lack of sleep. But much of the negative effects of stress have more to do with how we experience and react to these stressors. Why is it that some people seem

By Hesh Goldstein Americans are losing their minds to Alzheimer’s disease. It’s an epidemic and it’s not typical of what’s going on in the rest of the world. The World Health Organization estimates that there are 18 million people with Alzheimer’s. Over 4 and1/2 million Americans have the disease. We account for 25% of all Alzheimer’s cases, even though we represent only 4.6% of the world’s population. Europe is experiencing half our rate of disease. For Americans over 85 years of age, 50% are thought to have Alzheimer’s. The question is, “Why”? Alzheimer’s was first discovered in 1906, about 20
