By Ken Ham For decades, scientists have been searching for a so-called “gay” gene. Of course, this is more than just some dry academic pursuit. There’s a social and moral agenda behind it—that is, if somehow scientists can prove there’s a genetic “cause” for homosexual behavior, then some will argue that people are “born this way,” they have no control over their own desires and behaviors, and therefore no one can say what they’re doing is morally wrong. Well, a new study has just emerged that argues there is no “gay” gene, but that there are genetic markers purportedly …read

By Dr. Mercola “Where would we be without grass?” It’s a question posed in the video above, titled “Grass: The Big Story,” and released by the USDA circa 1950. Grass farming is emerging as necessary to rejuvenate the soil, produce high-quality food and remedy many of the environmental problems caused by industrial agriculture, but while it’s sometimes viewed as a trendy movement, its benefits have been known for decades. It’s a prime example of “what’s old is new again,” in that raising cows on pasture has always been the best method of food production. “I don’t think anyone can stay

By Mike Barrett People relax on sofas and walk across their kitchen floors without giving it a second thought, but a study shows that toxic chemicals used in furniture and vinyl flooring to make them fire-resistant could be poisoning children. [1] The problem is most prevalent in public housing where scientists say children have toxin levels in their blood and urine up to 15 times higher than those who aren’t exposed. The flame-retardant chemicals, called PBDEs (polybrominated diphenyl ethers), are linked to neurodevelopmental delays, obesity, endocrine and thyroid disruption, cancer, and other diseases.

In the grips of his alcohol addiction, David Reichmann was told by his doctor that he would be dead within a year. “I’d suffered two minor strokes, but it didn’t stop me from going to hotels every night and drinking until stumps. Then I’d take a bottle of bourbon home with me,” the 53-year-old Victorian father of two said. He would keep a bottle of whiskey next to his bed, but if he couldn’t afford spirits that week, he’d mix methylated spirits with soft drink. “I couldn’t keep down a morning coffee,” he said. “I’d have to have alcohol to

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) No doubt, these days, it’s all too common for people to be suffering with a vitamin D deficiency and/or thyroid disorder. But, why is this happening and, more importantly, what has to change – immediately. First, let’s ask a few important questions: Are you overweight or obese? Do you spend a lot of time indoors and always slap on sunscreen when you go outside? And, perhaps most importantly, do you live in a higher latitude location? If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions – you’re at a higher risk of a

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) The data is in: you can’t make a cookbook full of heart healthy recipes without including nuts. In fact, eating raw nuts have long been recognized as a smart way to reduce the risk of a heart attack – due to the healthy fats, protein, minerals, vitamins, polyphenols and fiber found inside. But, now, recent research reveals the power of this plant-based nutrition. And, to state the obvious, everyone will benefit from this news, especially those with a family history of heart disease – a condition that’s responsible for 1 in 4 annual deaths

Although Komodo dragons are cold-blooded reptiles, they can rapidly increase their metabolism to near-mammalian levels for amazing bursts of speed and even long strenuous runs. Because of their highly venomous bites, all they need is one go… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham There are so many lies marketed at Christians, disguised as truth. Some are obvious—others are sneaky, cloaked in half-truths and out-of-context Bible verses. Satan mixes truth with error to confuse us and lead us astray. The only way to defend ourselves against these lies is to know the truth. That arms us against the lies of the enemy. That’s why the theme for our 2020 Answers for Women conference (March 27–28, 2020) is “Truth: Uncovering the Lies We Believe.” This conference, taking place in the 2,500-seat Answers Center at the Ark Encounter in Northern Kentucky, will …read

By Dr. Mercola Optimizing vitamin D levels may be a simple way to reduce some Parkinson’s disease symptoms, including falls, sleep problems, depression and anxiety, according to a study that compared 182 patients with Parkinson’s and 185 healthy people without the disease.1 It’s previously been shown that vitamin D deficiency is common in people with Parkinson’s disease, and this study found no different. Those with Parkinson’s had significantly lower vitamin D levels compared to those without. Further, Parkinson’s patients with lower vitamin D levels also fell and suffered from insomnia more often, while also being more likely to struggle with

By Dr. Mercola Optimism is associated with greater physical and mental health, and one reason why could be linked to its role in promoting better sleep. In a study of 3,548 people, those who were the most optimistic enjoyed higher quality sleep, hinting at the importance of a positive outlook in getting a good night’s rest.1 While the reason why optimism leads to better sleep wasn’t revealed by this study, the researchers, from the University of Illinois, suggested it could be due to buffering the effects of stress, leading to better coping mechanisms. In other words, optimists may spend less

By Ken Ham Have you run into any angry spiders lately? Well, you may in the future thanks to, you may have guessed it, the villain in many news stories—climate change. And, of course, throw in evolution, as well! Researchers discovered that “angry” (aggressive) spiders in storm-prone areas survived better and reproduced more offspring than tamer spiders. This is attributed to evolution, while the storms are attributed to climate change. Some behaviors are simply more beneficial than others under certain circumstances, which may drive a change in the population. But it’s not evolution. The spiders remain spiders—there’s been no change
