Dr. Aseem Malhotra is an interventional cardiologist consultant in London, U.K., who gained quite a bit of publicity after the publication of his peer-reviewed editorial [1] in the British Medical Journal (BMJ) in 2013. In it, he seriously challenges the conventional view on saturated fats, and reviews how recent studies have failed to find any significant association between saturated fat and cardiovascular risk.

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola It’s often stated as fact that Alzheimer’s disease is the result of a buildup of beta-amyloid plaques in your brain. Such plaques may increase in your brain as you age, but tend to be far more abundant in people with Alzheimer’s disease.

Provocative new research suggests that beta-amyloid buildup may not be intrinsically abnormal, and instead, may act as a natural antibiotic that protects your brain from infection. Alzheimer’s disease,

By none Whether it’s game day, movie night, or a simple get-together, you can always count on a chips-and-dip combination to satisfy your taste buds.

By Admin – Orissa by Alliance for Natural Health – USA Acid Blockers Cause Brain Damage, Kidney Disease? Increase the risk of Alzheimer’s by 50%? Kidney disease by up to 50%? Unfortunately, that’s exactly what the science suggests. Over the years, we’ve written extensively about the dangers of stomach acid drugs—conventional medicine’s completely wrongheaded answer to stomach pain and acid reflux. Scientists aren’t certain what causes acid reflux, but a leading hypothesis is that it’s caused by a stomach environment that is not acidic enough. The lack of acid in the stomach short-circuits the signal needed to close the pyloric

Table salt is made of one metal ion (sodium) and one non-metal ion (chloride). Your body needs both ions to function and can produce neither, so you must get
