By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Researchers have long known that following the Mediterranean diet reduces risk of dying from heart disease and stroke. But what about effects on people who already suffer from heart disease? In research presented at the European Society of Cardiologists Society Congress, results showed that people with heart disease who most closely adhered to the diet died a stunning 37 percent less often than those with the lowest rate of compliance. Powerful intervention study changes mortality rate Researchers followed 1,197 participants for over seven years to obtain the results, which were deemed “extraordinary” – …read

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Did you get enough sleep last night? If your answer is no, you’re in good company. Data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggests 35 percent of U.S. adults are not getting the recommended seven hours of sleep each night.1 When you consider that some people probably need closer to eight hours to be optimally healthy, that percentage jumps even higher. What’s at stake when you skimp on sleep, either by choice or consequence? Your emotional and physical health can suffer, and this has steep ramifications for your work life,

By stephaniedodier What was the number one reason I didn’t make my health a priority for more than 15 years? Can you guess? You got it: time. It may be different for you, but for the majority of my patients (and in the past, for me), time is at the top of the list of reasons why they are struggling. Every day I balanced work, home, friends and a seemingly endless stream of errands and to-dos. I wore too many hats. To be honest, I was once a workaholic; I used to work up to 14–16 hrs. a day.

By none When it comes to purchasing essential oils, there are a lot of factors that affect your decision to buy them or not: value for money, freshness, effectiveness or all of the three.

By Hesh Goldstein Using the HRT (hormone replacement therapy) drug scandal for openers, relying on conventional medicine to treat your health is like playing Russian Roulette with your life. Virtually every popular treatment offered by conventional medicine is potentially deadly. Chemotherapy kills more patients than it saves, bariatric surgery kills thousands of obese patients right on the operating table, HRT drugs double your risk of breast cancer and pharmaceuticals may double your risk of heart attacks or stroke. Over-the-counter painkillers can kill you from internal bleeding, vaccines cause autism and Alzheimer’s disease, antidepressant drugs cause diabetes, diabetes drugs double the

By Karen Berrios When I was first diagnosed ( Karen’s Journey ) I couldn’t help myself but to feel afraid, somehow I felt shame for feeling this emotion because I thought as a believer of God I had to be strong in every area of my life despite the challenges I may face. After all the word of God says in His perfect love there is no fear. Could it be then that I really didn’t know of His love? Or perhaps, I’m a normal human being with normal emotions? God gave us emotions right? Let me tell you… Yes!!

Both are considered an acquired taste, but it’s the latter that’s been scrutinized in scientific circles and found to contain some very impressive properties for the human

By chrisclarkxerveo According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 36.5 percent of all American adults are considered obese. This is a significant health problem since obesity has been linked to an increase in risk of heart disease, stroke, type-2 diabetes, and a myriad of other diseases. As such, many people are beginning to gain a better understanding of the risks associated with obesity and are taking steps to shed the excess weight. Unfortunately, many people have a difficult time losing excess weight, which can be a rather disheartening process. More often than not, this leads to someone giving

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola There is a significant cost to your health from light pollution resulting from living in a 24/7 society. A growing number of street lights and lit signs obscure the night sky, and your bedroom is likely dimly lit from street lamps, digital equipment or alarm clocks. It’s not possible to “feel” the changes in your brain and body from outdoor street light that seeps in around your bedroom curtains or the dim glow from your alarm clock. Yet, even a dim light at night affects your natural sleep cycle and produces biological changes which,

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Improving bone health and avoiding osteoporosis may be easier than we once thought. In fact, better bone density could be as simple as eating more dried plums. In the U.S. alone, around 8 million women experience osteoporosis and a deterioration in bone health during menopause due to the sudden cessation of ovarian hormone production. However, it is estimated that around 2 million American men experience osteoporosis as well. Dried plums superior for bone health than dates, figs, raisins, strawberries and apples Dried plums for bone health and osteoporosis were studied by researchers …read more

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Staying awake during surgery is the norm for certain procedures, like some cesarean sections and brain surgeries. However, most people expect that they’ll be under general anesthesia should they require surgery. This may soon change, as increasing numbers of patients are opting to take control of their surgical experience and stay awake during the procedure. It’s a decision that comes with both benefits and risks — to the patient and the surgeon. Not every surgery is appropriate for staying awake, but if you’re given the option, here’s what you should consider. During Which Types

Rates of thyroid cancer have tripled in the last decade, making it — papillary thyroid cancer in particular — the most rapidly increasing cancer in the U.S.2 While part of this rise is blamed on the increased use of thyroid ultrasound detecting small thyroid nodules that may otherwise

By Thomasina Copenhaver Sometime about a hundred years ago, the Rockefeller and Carnegie Foundations decided to “reform” medical education in America by engineering medical school curriculum through their grants and donations. When money comes from a donor—the curriculum and the outcome is logically going to be what the donor wants it to be. Carnegie and Rockefeller bestowed literally hundreds of millions of dollars on these schools to “standardize” care to patented, petrochemical drug intensive treatment to the exclusion of all others. Natural healing, that had brought humanity to this point since the beginning of time, was summarily bastardized, the wisdom
