Proof The Bible Is True

A three-fold jump since 1975 in the percentage of adults worldwide who are obese has been driven mainly by a shift in diet and lack of exercise, but genes do play a role as well, according a large-scale study published Thursday. For people genetically predisposed to a wider girth, these unhealthy lifestyles compounded the problem, resulting in an even higher rate of weight gain, researchers reported in The BMJ, a peer-reviewed medical journal. The standard measure for obesity, the Body-Mass Index (BMI), is calculated on the basis of weight and height. …read more Source: Sott health news feed

Cancer kills an estimated 1,600 Americans each day. In China, 8,100 people a day succumb to the disease. It’s so common, it’s a rare individual who does not know someone who has been diagnosed with cancer – which is why the topic of this interview is so important. Dr. Nasha Winters is a naturopathic physician who specializes in cancer treatment. While she has treated cancer patients in the past, she’s developed a more efficient model where she now focuses on training clinicians and consulting with those treating patients. I’ve been very impressed with her work. She has embraced the ketogenic [More]

The ontology and ecology of food Food is not a commodity, it is not “stuff” put together mechanically and artificially in labs and factories. Food is life. Food holds the contributions of all beings that make the food web, and it holds the potential of maintaining and regenerating the web of life. Food also holds the potential for health and disease, depending on how it was grown and processed. Food is therefore the living currency of the web of life. As an ancient Upanishad reminds us “Everything is food, everything is something else’s food. ” Good Food and Real Food [More]

By Ken Ham The ideology of the secularist movement is driving Western culture—in an anti-biblical direction. Sadly, we see moral relativism permeating society. And when Christians disagree with specific moral issues, they are often accused of hate. But Christians don’t hate those who hold to a different worldview. Actually, it’s a worldview clash between secularists and Christians because they have very different foundations from which they build their worldviews—man’s word or God’s Word. As the name implies, the conference will focus on how to reach our increasingly secularized cultures with the unchanging message of the gospel. Our Western culture is [More]

By Dr. Mercola Popular breakfast foods often marketed and fed to children continue to test positive for residues of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup herbicide. Glyphosate is the subject of lawsuits filed by more than 13,000 plaintiffs, who allege they developed cancer due to exposure to the ubiquitous chemical in Roundup and other glyphosate-based weed killers.1 A number of cities, counties, states and countries have already moved to ban glyphosate or impose restrictions on its use. This includes Austria, which announced in June 2019 plans to ban the chemical within the year.2 In the U.S., however, use continues unabated [More]

A mother-of-two ditched the vegan diet she followed for fifteen years after she claims it caused her immune system to crash – and now only eats meat. Nicole Carter, 44, of California, went vegan when she was 18, thinking it was the best thing to do for her health and to protect the environment. Her diet was packed with whole foods, leafy greens, berries and freshly squeezed juices. She grew her own vegetables and cut out sugar and alcohol. …read more Source: Sott health news feed     

People hoping to lose weight with exercise often wind up being their own worst enemies, according to the latest, large-scale study of workouts, weight loss and their frustrating interaction. The study, which carefully tracked how much people ate and moved after starting to exercise, found that many of them failed to lose or even gained weight while exercising, because they also reflexively changed their lives in other, subtle ways. But a few people in the study did drop pounds, and their success could have lessons for the rest of us. In a just and cogent universe, of course, exercise would [More]

By Dr. Mercola Record-setting rains have left Midwest cropland bogged down with so much water that many farmers have been forced to delay planting. Typically, 96% of U.S. corn crops are already planted come June,1 but in 2019 only 67% were planted as of early June — and in some states, like Indiana and Illinois, rates were as low as 31% and 45%, respectively.2 The implications of the deluge of rain, and resulting flooding, spread far beyond the agricultural fields themselves, however. There are 18 major river basins3 in the continental U.S., with the largest belonging to rivers that feed [More]

After studies have confirmed that vitamin A, converted from beta carotene, is very low in genetically modified golden rice, new evidence shows that the rice is also unable to hold the biochemical for long after harvest. Unless preserved in refrigerated condition in vacuum packaging as paddy, golden rice can lose up to 84 per cent of its beta carotene in six months, according to a new Indian government research. The degradation of beta carotene level gets faster with processing and is the highest in polished golden rice, said the research released two months ago in the British journal Food Chemistry. [More]

By Tammie Jones, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) You rely on sunscreen to prevent skin damage, painful burns and to reduce the risk of skin cancer caused by overexposure to the sun. But, most people don’t realize that toxic sunscreen products contain chemicals – which cause more harm than good. And, the sunscreen industry would like you to remain uninformed about the health risks. For example, a study conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discovered that oxybenzone – the active ingredient in many types of toxic sunscreen – is a hormone disrupter and is linked to …read [More]

Evolutionary theory is based on the faulty assumption that chance random processes can produce highly ordered complex systems, and this theory routinely fails to reveal scientific reality.

There’s a lot to be said for veganism. For the thinking eater, it gets around a whole bunch of ethical grey areas. If you care about what you put in your mouth, it is probably the most black and white way to approach the whole meat thing. There are no grey areas about so-called “ethical” meat, or questions over exactly how “free range” are the hens when there are 10,000 chickens to the ­hectare. Not eating meat, not buying products that come from animals — surely that means you’re doing better not only for those animals directly affected, but also [More]

By Ken Ham I’ve written about a lot of strange things on this blog, but I never thought gender-fluid tomatoes—from Australia, my home country, no less—would be one of them. But that’s where our culture has ended up—having a discussion about how a strange plant, a species of bush tomato from the Outback, somehow shows that the “sexual binary” is “a fallacy.” Various reproductive strategies are God’s designs to help organisms continue to reproduce, ensuring the survival of their kind, in an ever-changing fallen world. The researchers, however, go further than just describing the plant and naming it Solanum plastisexum. [More]

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Chronic pain, or pain lasting longer than three months, affects over a fifth of the U.S. population, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Are you one of the 50 million Americans looking for pain relief? If so, you’ll want to learn more about the best essential oils to help you feel better. Unfortunately, for too many pain sufferers, prescription drugs are the only option offered by conventionally-trained physicians. And, to make matters worse, these drug ‘therapies’ can trigger nasty side effects like, constipation, nausea and a decreased respiratory rate. [More]
