By Hesh Goldstein Inflammation is a double-edged sword. While it is very critical for the healing of wounds, it is also a bodily response that can become too much of a good thing. Any infection, injury or toxicity problem inflicted on our bodies is handled by the inflammatory response that occurs automatically. Unfortunately, if certain substances in our bodies become unbalanced, the inflammation switch can come “on” at the wrong time or forget to go “off” when no longer needed. When inflammation occurs, it can be seen externally as a rash or swelling. A more dangerous kind is that which [More]

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Rates of melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, are on the rise.

And, not a word about the value of vitamin B3. While research is ongoing, there is currently no single drug or combination of drugs that can effectively treat melanoma. However, recent research raises the hope that vitamin B3 may play an …read more Source: Natural Health 365

By Admin PEMF therapy. Image from YouTube. Comments by Brian Shilhavy Health Impact News Editor In modern times the broad category of “energy healing” is not very well-known in western culture, which has built a medical system dependent on chemically-based pharmaceutical products. In many cultures, however, various forms of energy healing have existed for thousands of years. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), for example, the science of acupuncture has been known and practiced for thousands of years, and it is also one form of energy medicine known and practiced in western countries today like the U.S. One can even state [More]

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Holding hands can be a romantic gesture or a way to show affection toward any human being you care about. Now a recent collaborative study by the University of Haifa and the University of Colorado Boulder is showing that holding hands can cause a measurable entrainment that reduces physical pain naturally. Sharing human touch by holding hands results in a synchronization of numerous bodily processes, including heart rate, breathing and brain wave patterns. The study results also showed that the more compassion and empathy felt by …read more Source: Natural Health 365     
By AdminOK Here We Go Again: More Vaccine-Autism Denialism by Brian S. Hooker, PhD, PE and the World Mercury Project Team Scientists like to pretend that they are above grubby conflicts of interest, and mainstream journalists often pay lip service to their “fourth estate” watchdog role. However, some scientists and journalists are all too willing to play more of a corporate lapdog role. A particularly large amount of ink has been spilled to discredit—nay, stomp out—the inconvenient notion that vaccines might have something to do with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which now affects 1 in 36 children in the U.S. [More]

By Lindsay Sheehan Yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus) is a perennial grass-like plant that grows up to three feet tall. Also known as chufa sedge, earth almond, and nut grass, the simple and unassuming foliage of C. esculentus is often mistaken for a weed. Beneath the soil, however, are a vast network of rhizomes, tubers, and basal bulbs; a single yellow nutsedge plant can produce anywhere from hundreds to thousands of tubers per season. Yellow nutsedge is cultivated for these edible tubers – called “tiger nuts” because of their striped appearance. Despite its name, tiger nuts are not nuts but fleshy [More]
