By Dr. Mercola Impossible Foods, which made headlines for its meatless burgers that “bleed” like real meat, is set to become a household name, courtesy of a partnership with Burger King and their Whopper sandwich. The new Impossible Whopper bills itself as 100% Whopper, 0% Beef. Instead of a hamburger patty made with beef, the burger will feature an Impossible patty, which is made mostly of soy protein, potato protein, coconut oil, sunflower oil and heme, derived from genetically engineered yeast.1 While it’s currently only available at 59 restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri, the plan is to expand it to

In this interview, I describe how to implement the KetoFast approach, including the meal timing and the types and amounts of foods you should be adding to your plate. “KetoFast” is the follow-up to my bestselling book “Fat for Fuel,” and I …read more Source: mercola

By none The large intestine is partly responsible for allowing good bowel movement, which is something that most people usually take for granted. But as with other parts of the body, your large intestine can also encounter its fair share of problems over time. If you’ve been experiencing abdominal cramps that are accompanied by bloody diarrhea or the urge to frequently empty your bowels, then it’s likely that your large intestine is no longer in good shape, and you may be suffering from a form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) known as ulcerative colitis.1 To fully understand this disease, let

Public school teachers in Los Angeles, California went on strike last month to demand better conditions for students in their schools. Not only were teachers in the Los Angeles Unified School District asking for a pay increase but also demanded smaller class sizes, more counselors, more librarians and a full-time nurse in every school.1 Such stories are becoming all too common in the media, particularly with respect to the impact on public school systems of the need for special education teachers and classes to serve the growing numbers of children in the U.S. with learning disabilities, developmental delays, and other

By Sara Tipton A new study suggests that doctors return to more natural and holistic roots by prescribing healthy foods and an improved diet for some Americans. Long stuck in a culture where unhealthy diets and chemical-laden foods have become normal, many doctors are now breaking the mold – but it’s good and bad at the same time. Those doctors who choose to prescribe a healthy diet feel that simply improving the quality of the foods a person eats could save the healthcare industry billions of dollars. Although this is far from a new concept, it is nice to see

By Joy Jensen, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Mushrooms are loved in the culinary world for their rich flavor, but they’re also a nutritional powerhouse packed with antioxidants and other important compounds. In fact, edible mushrooms – both wild and cultivated – provide a lot of protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals. So, we’ve known about the nutritional benefits of mushrooms, but new findings show that mushrooms can also protect brain health. The research we’ll focus on today discovered that when people eat mushrooms (daily), even in small portions, they seem to have a reduced risk of mild cognitive impairment. This is an

By Dr. Mercola According to research1 presented at the Endocrine Society’s annual meeting, March 23, 2019, intermittent fasting, where you eat all your meals for the day within a narrow window of time — in this case eight hours — drastically reduces a woman’s risk of breast cancer. According to Dr. Manasi Das, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, San Diego, who led the research team:2 “Improving the metabolic health of postmenopausal women with obesity may mitigate their risk for breast cancer. Time-restricted eating may be more successful than calorie restriction in controlling the negative effects of obesity,

This week our resident health experts Elliot Overton and Doug DiPasquale interview Sally K. Norton about the hidden dangers of a certain toxin hiding in our vegetables: oxalate. Otherwise known as oxalic acid, oxalate is made by plants and some fungi and serves their biological needs. Oxalate crystals have the potential to inflict a great deal of mechanical injury on the body. It is corrosive and toxic, yet many of the vegetables, nuts, grains and fruits that contain the most oxalates are promoted as health foods! Sally K. Norton earned her Bachler of Science degree in Nutrition from Cornell University

By Dr. Mercola Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup, is the most widely used herbicide, sprayed with unprecedented abandon throughout the world.1 The consequences of this practice are now becoming apparent, with weeds becoming increasingly resistant to it — and a jury finding in yet another landmark trial that the chemical caused cancer. With the resistance, farmers sold a bill of goods about glyphosate are now scrambling to find a solution for uncontrollable weeds that have outsmarted the man-made chemical. The solution from agribusinesses entities is to introduce new genetically engineered (GE) crops designed to withstand not only glyphosate

Just one dose of carbohydrates can damage blood vessels The often embraced ‘cheat day’ is a common theme in many diets and the popular ketogenic diet is no exception. But new research from UBC’s Okanagan campus says that just one 75-gram dose of glucose – the equivalent a large bottle of soda or a plate of fries – while on a high fat, low carbohydrate diet can lead to damaged blood vessels. “The ketogenic – or keto-diet – has become very common for weight loss or to manage diseases like Type 2 diabetes,” says Jonathan Little, associate professor in the

Scientists are celebrating a “world-first discovery” which shows the “highest improvement” in child autism patients, using fecal transplants to massively curtail symptoms and greatly reduce suffering. The results of the initial study involving 18 children show great promise: 83 percent of the children had “severe” autism symptoms, but just two years later, only 17 percent had “moderate” symptoms, while 44 percent fell below the threshold for “mild” autism. The team recorded a roughly 45-percent drop in language, social, and behavioral issues in the children over the course of the study. The initial success of the microbiota or ‘fecal transfer’ therapy

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Aluminum in vaccines is a growing concern – and for good reason, as you’ll soon see. Aluminum, a neurotoxic metal, is an ingredient in many vaccines used today – including the HPV vaccine manufactured by Merck. Now, a professor of veterinary pathology says he has found a link between aluminum in vaccines and a potentially life-threatening autoimmune condition. Yet this explosive discovery may go largely unrecognized by Western medicine and the scientific community. The professor’s peer-reviewed and published study has abruptly been withdrawn from publication in a scientific journal – leading many to suspect
