By Julie Fidler Type 2 diabetes, a serious disease (especially if left untreated) that can result in amputations and lifelong complications, can usually be prevented through healthy diet and exercise, and that’s exactly what needs to happen, the World Health Organization (WHO) warns. The number of people with the condition has quadrupled in less than 40 years, with approximately 422 million people now suffering from the ailment. The researchers behind the WHO study, released last year, shows one of the largest of diabetes trends to date. The agency notes how the aging population and increasing levels of obesity make the

By theHealthFoodGuru Watching the same Shingles commercial over and over again is just plain annoying! The Shingles commercial starts out showing you just how painful it is and of course how gross it looks. Then the narrator starts telling you the biggest lie about Shingles — that the cause of your Shingles is chickenpox! What this narrator neglects to tell you is that only those who have ever received the chickenpox vaccine as a child will ever experience Shingles later in life. But then the narrator also claims that “the chickenpox virus is still inside you”, which is also a

By Carrie Brown Anti-aging Tips You’ll Need To Know If You Want To Live To Be 100 Do you know any centenarians so you can ask them their anti-aging tips? (And no, that’s not a mythical creature.) I bet you don’t. It’s a human who has blown out 100 candles on their birthday cake. They’ve seen over 100 summers within their lifetime. They’ve probably voted in more elections, seen more political upheavals, and lived through more economic roller-coasters than we could ever fathom. Because they’re one hundred years old. More than likely, you’ve never met one before. Because centenarians are

By Seth Pollard Taking antibiotics for an extended period of time in early and middle adulthood may increase your risk of developing precancerous growths called polyps in your colon, a large study suggests. [1] The research, published in the journal Gut, adds to a growing collection of evidence that the type and diversity of gut microbes may play a significant role in the development of cancer. Many people develop diarrhea when they take antibiotics. This is because the drug kills some of the normal gut bacteria, thus allowing an overgrowth of abnormal bacteria to dominate.

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Alzheimer’s disease, which is the most serious form of dementia, eventually leads to the inability to carry out even the most basic of bodily functions, such as swallowing or walking. It is ultimately fatal, as conventional treatment options are few and universally ineffective. Like autism among children, Alzheimer’s among seniors has reached epidemic proportions, with no slowdown in sight. On the contrary, evidence suggests the trend is worsening. At present, Alzheimer’s affects an estimated 5.4 million Americans.1 Projections suggest the disease will affect 1 in 4 Americans within the next two decades, and by

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola About 1 in 68 U.S. children has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), up from 1 in 150 in 2000.1 This rising trend isn’t only occurring in the U.S., however, as autism rates have increased rapidly worldwide, taking a heavy toll on families and economies alike. While certain genetic mutations have been linked to autism, they’re thought to be involved in less than one-third of cases.2 The other major cause of autism is thought to be environmental in nature, with exposure to toxins and nutrient deficiencies among the possible culprits. “The rapid …read

By Jonathan Landsman (NaturalHealth365) Dental amalgam is made up of 50 percent mercury – a toxic heavy metal linked scientifically to neurological problems, kidney problems and infertility. In 1991, the World Health Organization reported that mercury fillings are the predominant cause of mercury exposure. So, the question remains: is YOUR dentist telling you the whole truth? The American Dental Association (ADA) continues to deny the dangers of mercury-based, silver fillings – insisting that dental amalgam is a “safe, affordable and durable” material used to restore the teeth of over 100 million Americans. It’s time to expose the …read more Read

While the Centers for Disease Control and Prvention (CDC) and other health agencies don’t seem in a hurry to do analyses of the health of children who receive vaccines versus those who don’t, a group of scientists from the Jackson State University School of Public Health has taken the initiative. (the results are alarming) Their research sought to accomplish two things: To determine if there is an association between vaccination and neurodevelopmental disorders …read more

By Julie Fidler Researchers at Cornell University’s Baker Institute for Animal Health are working on a test that could detect a stroke in just 10 minutes, and it requires a tiny drop of blood barely big enough to moisten the fingertip. Stroke is a leading cause of death in the United States, and half of Americans have at least one risk factor. Those factors include high blood pressure, cigarette smoking, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. A stroke occurs when either a blood clot blocks blood flow to the brain (ischemic stroke) or a blood vessel in the brain

By theHealthFoodGuru Each year 3 million people here are diagnosed with psoriasis and millions more are diagnosed with eczema, acne, dermatitis and any other skin disorder, and the treatments cost insurance companies billions of dollars each year to treat them all, unsuccessfully of course. The reason why drugs or topical drugs don’t cure psoriasis or any other skin disorder, is because drugs and even most alternative treatments cannot actually treat what causes psoriasis, eczema, acne or any other skin disorder. So, What Causes Psoriasis And All Other Skin Disorders? Dirty blood! Most people do not think of their blood as

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Drug-resistant infections claim close to 700,000 lives worldwide every year – a shocking figure. Yet experts say this is only the beginning. If the crisis is not addressed, the toll is expected to rise to over 10 million lives a year by 2050 – more than the lives annually lost to cancer. Make no mistake – this is a serious health crisis. A recently-released review from the UK highlights this escalating health threat – one which threatens to return modern medicine to the “Dark Ages.” Costs associated with AMR could run into …read more

In a study released last year, the U.S. Geological Survey and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFW) tested male smallmouth and largemouth bass from 19 National Wildlife Refuges. The researchers found that 85% of the smallmouth bass “had signs of female reproductive parts.” Of the largemouth bass, 27% were intersex. What could be causing this? Luke Iwanowicz, a USGS research biologist and lead author of the paper, says: “It is not clear what the specific cause of intersex is in these fish. This study was designed to identify

Dr. Joseph Maroon, a professor of neurosurgery at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, has written a book that addresses these very questions. “Square One: A Simple Guide to a Balanced Life” grew out of his own struggles with burnout, setbacks and depression after he’d become a world-class neurosurgeon before the age of 40. “I’ve had rather impressive success [and] cataclysmic failure personally,”
