By Hesh Goldstein Heart disease is the number one killer in civilized nations with evidence clearly showing that the incidence of heart disease is directly related to our abnormal dietary habits through the SAD (Standard American Diet). Wherever people live on a diet high in refined carbohydrates and animal fats, high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, arthrosclerosis, angina, and other degenerative heart changes occur most frequently. A great deal of confusion exists about the role of animal fats as one of the causes of heart disease.

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Blueberries are rapidly becoming the darling of nutritionists, physicians and researchers for their power to minimize age-related cognitive decline. Now, recent research from Florida State University strongly suggests that they may have another superpower: the ability to help prevent heart disease. The power of healthy nutrition revealed: a study conducted on postmenopausal women showed that as little as one cup of blueberries a day reduced risk factors for cardiovascular disease by lowering blood pressure and reversing arterial stiffness.

By Jonathan Landsman (NaturalHealth365) The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) calls water fluoridation – the addition of industrial-grade fluoride to community water supplies – “one of the top ten public health achievements of the 20th century.” But, pioneering biological dentist Dr. David Kennedy has another term for it: “a public health fraud.” No doubt, adding fluoride to the public water supply is actually one of the greatest crimes against humanity.

By Dr. Serge Gregoire All over the world, night after night, millions of people are riveted to their TV sets – but not to watch the latest soap, o CSI. Not to watch Jay Leno or Sex in the City. Not to see who outwits, outlasts and outplays others in Survivor. No – they are spellbound by the efforts of a small band of obese people trying to overcome the effects of years of overeating.

By Julie Fidler Teen girls who eat an “inflammatory diet” may be at higher risk for breast cancer later in life, according to a study released earlier this year. The Link Between Inflammation and Cancer Inflammation is a normal, necessary occurrence that helps injured tissue to heal. An inflammatory response is triggered when chemicals are released by the damaged tissues. The National Cancer Institute explains that, in response, white blood cells make substances that cause cells to divide and grow to rebuild damaged tissue. Once this process is complete, the inflammatory process subsides. However, with chronic inflammation, the inflammatory process

And I felt like crap – lethargic and tired all the time. I realized it was time to clean out
