Texas Children’s Hospital Center for Vaccine Development co-director Dr. Peter Hotez discusses schools reopening across the country as cases of coronavirus surges in children A series of new studies have revealed signs of strong and lasting immunity in people who developed a mild coronavirus infection, according to a report on Sunday. The studies, which have yet to be peer-reviewed, uncovered that antibodies and immune cells capable of recognizing the virus were apparently present months after infections concluded. The findings could help to eliminate the previous concerns over whether the virus could trick the immune system into having a poor memory

In tropical countries around the globe, coconut trees are dubbed the “tree of life” and for good reason. Each portion of the tree, from the coconuts up top to the roots at the bottom, are utilized and made into a number of healthful products. These include coconut milk, coconut oil and coconut butter. Coconut butter might be a lot less popular than coconut oil, but it has most of the same healthful qualities found in coconut oil. In fact, according to Mike Roussell, a nutrition consultant to professional athletes, coconut butter appears to be healthier than coconut oil from

By everybodysfit Yogurt is the result of bacterial fermentation of milk. This bacteria is called yogurt cultures. The fermentation of lactose produces lactic acid which is a milk protein. This milk protein gives yogurt both its taste and texture. Cow’s milk is the most popular dairy source used for yogurt production since it the most readily available. However, yogurt can also be produced from the milk of a goat, buffalo, camel, ewe, or yak. Each type of milk produces different results and it also depends if the milk is pasteurized, raw, or homogenized. Most people eat yogurt as a dairy

By Ken Ham “Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world, red and yellow, black and white,”—wait! “Red and yellow, black and white?” Is that accurate? Are people really different colors or different races? And doesn’t this cause kids to look on the outside differences as major when in reality they are only minor genetic differences? That line in the well-known children’s chorus “Jesus Loves the Little Children” implies the existence of different races. And while the sentiment that Jesus loves children, and all are precious in his sight, is certainly biblically accurate, this idea of “red,”

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Remember how much you enjoyed making forts out of blankets and cardboard boxes when you were a kid? Sadly, some school districts are making a disturbing twist on this popular childhood game and turning it into a Draconian measure to impose social distancing and purportedly slow the spread of COVID-19. We’re talking about new school reopening restrictions imposed in Thailand. The photos taken of these young children in their classrooms are honestly jaw-dropping – many of them resembling kids housed in plexiglass prisons. It’s an unnerving testament how far government overreach and complicit herd

By Ken Ham The response to the global pandemic has led to many schools in America offering or requiring students to “school at home” with online instruction, including video teaching from the students’ usual teacher(s). Well, according to some teachers on a Twitter thread that has since been hidden, the ability of parents and others to overhear the teacher’s instruction could be “damage[ing].” Reportedly, Matthew Kay, an educator and author of a book on the topic of “how to lead meaningful race conversations in the classroom,” recently tweeted, So, this fall, virtual class discussion will have many potential spectators—parents, siblings,

An increasingly common mutation of the novel coronavirus found in Europe, North America and parts of Asia may be more infectious but appears less deadly, according to a prominent infectious diseases doctor. Paul Tambyah, senior consultant at the National University of Singapore and president-elect of the International Society of Infectious Diseases, said evidence suggests the proliferation of the D614G mutation in some parts of the world has coincided with a drop in death rates, suggesting it is less lethal. “Maybe that’s a good thing to have a virus that is more infectious but less deadly,” Tambyah told Reuters.

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that over 16 million Americans are currently living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a debilitating condition characterized by difficulty breathing and blocked airflow to the lungs. While Western medicine may attempt to treat COPD with drugs such as bronchodilators and corticosteroids, these can feature toxic side effects that can include osteoporosis, pneumonia and even premature death. Fortunately, natural solutions do exist! Scientific research has shown that certain foods and supplements can markedly improve lung function and help alleviate COPD. Let’s take a look

Scientists at The University of Texas at Austin have discovered how some cells within a bacterial swarm will sacrifice themselves so that other cells in the swarm have a better chance of surviving onslaught by antibiotics, in a discovery important for efforts to address antibiotic resistance. As bacterial cells within a cluster or swarm die, they release chemical death cries, which scientists call necrosignaling. These signals act like a kind of early warning system, allowing the surviving bacterial cells to prepare a type of resistance to antibiotics. The process of necrosignaling is outlined in a new paper out today in

Russia has produced the first batch of its new vaccine for COVID-19, the Interfax news agency quoted the health ministry as saying on Saturday, hours after the ministry reported the start of manufacturing. Some scientists said they fear that with this fast regulatory approval Moscow may be putting national prestige before safety amid the global race to develop a vaccine against the disease. Russia has said the vaccine, the first for the coronavirus to go into production, will be rolled out by the end of this month. …read more Source: Sott health news feed
On June 29th, 2020, while America remained transfixed by anti-police protests, the chairman and CEO of the pharmaceutical company Gilead issued a much-anticipated announcement. In a breezy open letter, Daniel O’Day explained how much his company planned on charging for a course of remdesivir, one of many possible treatments for Covid-19. “In the weeks since we learned of remdesivir’s potential against Covid-19, one topic has attracted more speculation than any other: what price we might set for the medicine,” O’Day wrote, before plunging into a masterpiece of corporate doublespeak. The CEO noted a study by the National Institute of Allergy

In this article, I’m putting together several pieces I wrote in years past, to reveal scandals on a scale most people have never considered. Why? Because the credibility of information you’re getting now, from government agencies, about COVID, is connected to the credibility of information you’ve received from the same government agencies in years gone by. If they lied to you then — in mind-boggling ways — there is no reason to think they’re telling the truth now. Buckle up. …read more Source: Sott health news feed

Here in Part 2 of their conversation, Stadler says that following the Miller-Urey experiments in the mid-twentieth century, researchers were optimistic that a purely naturalistic explanation for the origin of the first life was just around the corner, but since then the field has run into one obstacle after another. The challenge to mindless origin-of-life scenarios is now far

By Damon Hines, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Is it possible that our immune systems are being hacked by the toxic chemicals in our homes? And do these toxic chemicals increase complications of COVID-19? Yes, it’s quite possible! Scientists agree that long-term exposure to air pollution increases the risk of diabetes, hypertension, asthma and coronary artery disease – four of the biggest underlying health risks associated with COVID-19. But there are hazardous chemicals right inside our own home – the “safe” place that we’ve been told to shelter since the start of the global pandemic –that might be affecting our immune system’s

Environmentally conscious consumers who switch from cow’s milk to soya milk may be doing harm to the rainforest because it is cleared to grow soya beans. Vast areas in South America, including in the Amazon, have been cleared to grow soya and demand for it continues to drive illegal deforestation. Cows in Britain are fed partly on soya but a litre of soya milk requires 11 times as much of it as does a litre of cow’s milk, according to a new study. Britain imports 1.1 million tonnes of soya a year to be used in animal feed and between
