In a recent interview, Dr. John Ioannidis had a harsh assessment of modelers who predicted as many as 40 million people would die and the US healthcare system would be overrun because of COVID-19. Dr. John Ioannidis became a world-leading scientist by exposing bad science. But the COVID-19 pandemic could prove to be his biggest challenge yet. Ioannidis, the C.F. Rehnborg Chair in Disease Prevention at Stanford University, has come under fire in recent months for his opposition to state-ordered lockdowns, which he says could cause social harms well beyond their presumed benefits. But he doesn’t appear to be backing

By Sara Tipton One of our favorite things to eat in the winter is canned pickled beet! My kids love beets and this is a great way to save them for eating during those colder months. Personally, I do not like beets, in general, but if I HAD to eat them to survive, I’d prefer the way my husband prepares them. Since so many do love beets and a good number of us do no, I hope this will help you to create some delicious food that can be consumed when it’s cooler outside while promoting health and wellness –

By Lori Clarkson, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Low-risk drinking isn’t a phrase that we hear too often. Culturally, we just frown upon binge-drinking and alcoholism. But we don’t take a second look at those who enjoy a glass of wine with dinner most nights. If you’re in America (or anywhere else in the world for that matter), drinking has been normalized and encouraged. After all, the first miracle was turning water into wine. Well, now, we have research showing that even acceptable alcohol consumption is slowly killing us. And it’s time we became more aware of what these habits are doing

A study led by Oxford University researchers was recently published confirming that Neanderthals and humans were very genetically similar and interfertile. They were even closer than polar and brown bears are to each other, which are known to mate and produce viable offspring in the wild quite easily.1 Along with a plethora of previous DNA studies, this research further confirms that Neanderthals were an ancient people group of the hum… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Dr. Mercola Up to 2.5% of children and 8.3% of adolescents suffer from depression, a condition that’s associated with significant complications later in life, including an increased risk of suicide, substance abuse, physical diseases and problems with work, academic and psychosocial functioning.1 It’s believed that both genetic and environmental factors play a role in why some children develop depression, and increasing attention has been placed on the role of dietary factors and nutrients such as vitamin D, which is ideally obtained via sun exposure. Further, one-carbon metabolism, which includes vitamin B12, folate and homocysteine …read more Source: mercola
By Dr. Mercola The importance of good sleep — sleep that is not fragmented, disturbed or insufficient — is recognized as a cornerstone of wellbeing by almost all health professionals. Scientific studies have shown that fragmented sleep causes chronic inflammation and can contribute to mental health and neurological disorders such as major depression and Alzheimer’s disease, a Berkeley News release said.1 Lack of sleep also affects your immune system by decreasing protective cytokines, according to Mayo Clinic.2 Fragmented sleep is associated with atherosclerosis,3 a buildup of fatty plaque in the arteries often called “clogged” or “hardened” arteries that can result

By Ken Ham Most people are familiar with the “group shaming” concept of “cancel culture.” It’s defined as “the popular practice of withdrawing support for (i.e., canceling) public figures and companies after they have done or said something considered objectionable or offensive.” Well, as people “cancel” celebrities and organizations for various things, including supposed racist statements, why haven’t they “cancelled” Charles Darwin? A recent opinion piece by Peter Heck on the news site Disrn made this very argument—one I’ve been making in presentations and social media posts for a long time. Heck writes, Even by the most generous of measures,

About 10.6% of humans are left-handed (Papadatou-Pastou et al., 2020). One of the longstanding questions in scientific research on left-handedness is, at which point in life it actually develops. One commonly held idea is that it is possible to know for certain whether a child is left-handed or not once he or she starts writing. However, scientific studies show that left-handedness actually develops much earlier to in primary school. In fact, it actually develops before we are even born. Scientists have investigated left-handedness in unborn babies using real-time ultrasound recording in order to track the movements of their arms and

By Hesh Goldstein The hormonal roller coasterride, otherwise known as hypoglycemia is probably one of the most widespread disorders in America and the civilized nations today. It is not a disease as such, but rather a symptom that arises from a wide range of hormonal abnormalities and imbalances reflecting the irregular function of many glands and organs. Unfortunately, it often goes undiagnosed and its multitude of symptoms are frequently labeled as emotional or psychological in origin. The symptoms are usually episodic, being related to the time and content of the previous meal and are usually improved by eating. Symptoms include

But did you know flushing your sinuses might be an even better way to inhibit the progression of a viral illness such as COVID-19? In an April 20, 2020, article,1 MSN’s Best Life features the recommendations of Dr. Amy Baxter, a pediatric emergency medicine physician in Atlanta, Georgia. Nasal irrigation, she says, is a rarely discussed strategy that can help reduce the progression of illness in those who have tested positive for COVID-19 infection. …read more Source: mercola
07/05/20 The use of astrology has exploded in popularity in recent years. Fueled by many factors including social media and technological advances that make it more accessible, an alarming number of young people have been pushed into embracing the ancient occult practice as truth. Belief in traditional religion has declined over the years, particularly among millennials. In a survey of 2,592 respondents, 40 percent of millennials reported having no religious affiliation at all. That data made them the largest share of generational “nones” in the U.S., according to Pew Research data gathered in phone surveys between 2018 and

A pair of new studies found that some dinosaurs, and possibly some marine reptiles, laid squishy eggs. One study discovered that many dinosaurs, like turtles and snakes, laid soft leather-like eggs—not hard-shelled eggs like most birds.1 A second study found a massive leathery egg about the size of a football in Cretaceous sediments in Antarctica.2 However, they think it was from a marine reptile and not a dinosaur.More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Admin by Dr. Ron PaulRon Paul Institute For months, the Washington Post and the rest of the mainstream media kept a morbid Covid-19 “death count” on their front pages and at the top of their news broadcasts. The coronavirus outbreak was all about the number of dead. The narrative was intended to boost governors like Cuomo in New York and Whitmer in Michigan, who turned their states authoritarian under the false notion that destroying people’s jobs, freedom, and lives would somehow keep a virus from doing what viruses always do: spread …read more Source: Health Impact News
Is it a safe and healthy practice to build using lots of timber, or not?

They argue that “timber construction … [helps] trees lock up climate-heating carb… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham For hundreds of years, we’ve classified organisms according to the system developed by Carl Linnaeus. Organisms fall into various kingdoms, phyla, classes, orders, families, genera, and species. It’s a time-honored method of categorizing what God has made. But some scientists are trying to change this. As you can see, this new system of classification is entirely based on the evolutionary tree of life and the idea that all life had a common ancestor. As one popular science article begins, “Move over, Linnaeus: There’s a new way of naming organisms.” This new system is known as the PhyloCode
