By noreply@blogger.com (Activist) It’s not a hard case to convince someone that smoking is bad. From reports of lung or prostate cancer to serious birth defects, it is universally accepted that smoking leads to negative health effects. For these very reasons, public acceptance of smoking has been on the decline. This trend has led people to look for alternatives to traditional smoking, which has introduced recreational activities like hookah. However, the recent rise of e-cigarettes has been getting the most attention lately. The act of using e-cigarettes is called “vaping” and it is one of the most popular alternatives, resulting [More]
By noreply@blogger.com (Activist) By Carey Wedler For the first time in over four decades, McDonald’s is shrinking. The fast food giant is currently closing more restaurants in the United States than it is opening, signifying a period of contraction for the global corporation. McDonald’s announced in April that it would be closing 700 “underperforming” locations, but because of the company’s sheer size—it has 14,300 locations in the United States alone—this was not necessarily a reduction in the size of the company, especially because it continues to open locations around the world. It still has <a class="colorbox" …read more Read more [More]
By Christina Sarich Three-hundred and fifty federal government cafeterias will enjoy ‘low-antibiotic’ food starting at the beginning of 2016, and during a White House summit on antibiotic use last week, voluntary pledges from 150 food processors, restaurant chains, hospitals, and drug companies vowing to phase out the use of meat from animals treated regularly with antibiotics will change the food landscape for the better. The White House issued a memorandum finally heeding the warnings of scores of scientists and nutritionists that antibiotic overuse has grown to epic proportions, and subsequently is causing serious health issues. A recent study showed that [More]

By noreply@blogger.com (Activist) By Daisy Luther If you’re one of the people who was excited when the “natural” sweetener that was allegedly made from the stevia plant became more commonly available, I’m afraid I have some bad news for you. All of that hype about the “new” zero-calorie Truvia? All the talk about how natural it is? That’s just not true. Incidentally, while the FDA has approved this bastardization of stevia, the actual leaf, where the active chemicals are found, is banned from sale as a food additive or sweetener and my only be sold as an “herbal supplement.” The [More]
By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola While antibiotics are given to combat bacteria responsible for illness, these drugs indiscriminately kill off beneficial bacteria in your gut as well, dramatically altering your gut microbiome. Gut bacteria, we now know, have an extensive repertoire of functions in your body. They even play a role in obesity. And, while your microbiome can change rather quickly based on your diet, exposure to antibiotics early in life may have serious long-term ramifications. According to recent research, infants given penicillin are at increased risk of obesity later on in life due to this early alteration of [More]

Christian student groups in the California State University system that were stripped of official recognition last year for requiring their leaders to be Christian have now regained their rights following a reversal of the decision. As previously reported, InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, which identifies as an “evangelical campus mission,” lost recognition last fall at 23 schools across the state over the decision, which is based on the system’s anti-discrimination policies. “Loss of recognition means we lose three things: free access to rooms (this will cost our chapters $13k-30k/year to reserve a room). We also lose access to student activities programs, including [More]
By Christina Sarich DDT, the pesticide once used in WWII was banned in the US in 1972, but it remains in the soil for decades. The good news is that a simple vitamin can reduce its negative effects. DDT was considered a ‘miracle’ when it was first created. It was the first important synthetic pesticide from chlorinated hydrocarbon (organochlorine) discovered by a Swiss chemist named Paul Muller in 1939. It was toxic to a large range of insects, didn’t break down rapidly so it didn’t require frequent applications, and it wasn’t water soluble, so rain wouldn’t wash it away. For [More]
By Robert Harrington As reported by one of the major British dailies, tens of thousands of teenage girls have been stricken with a debilitating illness following “routine” HPV vaccinations. How often do we now read similar headlines? This issue concerning childhood and teenage vaccination programs will only get bigger until the vaccine manufacturers conduct the high integrity studies which are necessary. The rising incidence of secondary illness and concerning symptoms is simply too compelling not to take seriously. By seriously we mean that every untested and unproven vaccine ought to be removed from the healthcare marketplace. Otherwise, the sensitive and [More]

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Every five years, the US Departments of Agriculture (USDA) and Health and Human Services (HHS) convene a 15-member panel to update the nation’s dietary guidelines. The panel’s stated mission is to identify foods and beverages that help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight, promote health, and prevent disease. These guidelines also serve as the foundation for national nutrition policies, such as school lunch programs and feeding programs for the elderly.

By Christina Sarich As major supermarkets like Safeway, Target, Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s refuse GM salmon, the mega store Costco is planning on selling the genetically modified fish to its customers while attempting to dress itself as a big organic seller. This is odd, since Costco has just announced that it will become one of the largest sellers of organic products in the US, and also since Costco customers recently rallied in Seattle to deliver more than 50,000 signatures asking the company not to sell GM salmon. Over 60 retailers representing more than 9000 stores have already publicly committed [More]
“Good article and analysis by Dr. Paul. Washington’s hysterical warmongering against Russia is just their insane way of trying to maintain US global domination. Rather than accepting the fact that a unipolar world is no longer tenable in light of the growing stature of Russia and China on the world stage and trying to work with them in a civil, mutually beneficial manner they have adopted instead a warmongering policy which will ultimately lead to disaster.”  Admin While much of the world focused last week on whether or not the Federal Reserve was going to raise interest rates, or whether [More]
By jeery park The thyroid gland is the body’s master controller. It controls how the body uses energy, makes proteins, and controls how sensitive the body is to other hormones. Hormonal output from the thyroid is regulated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) produced by the anterior pituitary. Most doctors only look at the TSH level when testing for thyroid issues. Unfortunately, this only tells a small part of how your hormones are functioning. There are many things that can affect how your thyroid functions. Here is an article from OrganicHealth.co that lists 9 ordinary household items that can destroy your thyroid. [More]
By Christina Sarich In the same way Big Food makers tried to rename sugar in their products so that consumers wouldn’t know that their favorite brands contained almost 75 percent empty calories, the mainstream media is trying to re-brand GMOs so that the public thinks the food creations are completely safe. That’s right. Just like Hilary Clinton advised biotech at a recent symposium, she thinks if customers just ‘thought of GMOs differently’ we would like them more.

By noreply@blogger.com (Activist) It may not be the first issue you think of in terms of staying well, but the temperature at which we work, relax, eat or sleep is as essential as diet or exercise in maintaining good health. We know this intuitively, of course, but there is also intriguing academic research into the effects of temperature, particularly in the workplace and how our physical, emotional and cognitive functions react to being too cold or too warm. Hot and Cold Employees One Cornell study, for instance, found that a lower than optimal temperature meant employees made significantly more mistakes [More]
By Heidi Kristoffer Avocado is one of the healthiest foods with lots of benefits for health: They are packing full of antioxidants and mono-unsaturated fats, which are essential for reducing inflammation in the body and reducing the risks of developing cancer. Avocados also contain fiber, which is essential for keeping the digestive system and intestines healthy. The nourishing nutrients in the fruit are also wonderful for beautifying purposes such as repairing hair damage and softening the skin.
