Before heading to the beach, most people make sure to pack a bottle of sunscreen. After all, the ultraviolet rays can be seriously damaging and no one wants to get skin cancer. But it turns out some ingredients in hundreds of common sunscreens don’t work as well as advertised, according to a new report released by the Environmental Working Group (EWG). Additionally, 73 percent of 880 sunscreens that were tested contain “worrisome” ingredients people may not want to slather on their skin. Authors of the report, which was released on Tuesday, examined the SPF protection, chemical ingredients and overall safety

By Julie Fidler A 16-year-old South Carolina boy consumed a large Diet Mountain Dew, a cafe latte from McDonald’s, and an energy drink within the course of 2 hours, and it evidently cost him his life.

But behind a locked gate is a garden with a much more sinister air — a poison garden home to plants that have the ability to kill. A sign on the gate reads, “These plants can kill,” and visitors may only enter with a guide, in groups of 20 or less, who are warned not to touch, sniff or venture too close

By Julie Fidler The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is tasked with making sure that drugs and medical devices are safe and efficient for Americans to use. However, it appears that the agency doesn’t take its job seriously enough, because a new study shows that nearly 1/3 of medications approved from 2001 to 2010 had safety issues years after they were made widely available to patients, and some were quite serious. [1] The study, published May 9 in JAMA, shows that 71 of the 222 drugs approved during that time period were withdrawn, required a “black box” due to

By Dr. Veronique Desaulniers (NaturalHealth365) According to integrative oncologist Dr. Jonathan Stegall, “Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT),” or “low-dose chemotherapy” is one of the safest and most innovative approaches to treating cancer.” Those who promote and use it claim that, although it technically is a form of chemo, it has none of the short-term nor long-term side effects of traditional cancer treatments, such as hair loss, liver damage, DNA mutation and immune suppression. “…it is appealing to patients who recognize the need for chemotherapy but want to do it in a safer, gentler manner,” says Stegall.

So where does a Christian ministry go after a 2016 event in which 82,000 people came to a stadium, more than 180,000 watched from remote venues in all 50 states and some 90,000 tuned in via the Web, the largest audience ever for a singe evangelistic meeting in the U.S.? Apparently, further down the same road, because there are no limits to simulcasting.

Yet, signs of sleep deprivation may not always be this obvious (and there are other factors besides sleep loss that can make you feel fatigued). The late Nathaniel Kleitman, Ph.D., professor emeritus in physiology at the University of Chicago, came up with one of the simplest tests to determine if you’re sleep deprived — and as a pioneer in sleep research, he was well qualified to know. Not only did Kleitman co-discover REM sleep,

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) According to recent research, intermittent fasting – the practice of doing without solid food, often for 20 to 30 hours at a time – has a surprisingly beneficial effect on health. Studies have shown that fasting boosts the immune system, promotes the growth of new neurons, reduces side effects in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, eases autoimmune disorders and even helps to reduce heart disease risk factors. Now, a new animal study conducted at UT Southwestern Medical Center shows that fasting can inhibit the progression of the most common type of childhood …read more Read

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) A 2016 Pew Research Center study found that nearly 40 percent of Americans believe genetically modified organisms and GMO foods are worse for health than organic and conventional foods. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is now looking to change hearts and minds through a marketing campaign promoting genetically modified organisms. The recent avoidance of a government shutdown allocated $3 million to what amounts to a planned propaganda campaign for GMOs. However, it’s being called a “consumer outreach” program focused on “educating consumers regarding agricultural biotechnology.” The campaign will discuss …read more Read
