By Ken Ham A news item from close to home (in Cincinnati, just a few miles away from the Creation Museum) caught my eye. Now, I’m used to seeing articles about recent dinosaur finds or analysis of dinosaur fossils in museum collections. But what stood out in this article was that the dinosaur in question was a juvenile sauropod. According to the article, the dinosaur is most likely a Diplodocus, (or a closely-related sauropod), and there are only eight skulls of this dinosaur currently known, and most are from adults. This juvenile skull is approximately 10 inches (24 cm) long,

By Virgil Usher, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) The amino acid tyrosine is loaded with amazing benefits for your stress recovery, mood, brain, the list goes on and on. Whether from supplements or diet, increasing your tyrosine intake will take your brain function to a higher level because this amino acid is a precursor to many neurotransmitters found within your brain. For example, adrenaline (for fight or flight responses), dopamine (for motivation and mood), and norepinephrine (for blood flow and muscle recovery) are the three main neurotransmitters formed from tyrosine. Here’s the problem: Your …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Dr. Mercola The Apple iPhone turns 10 this year, and in those short 10 years lives have been significantly changed by smartphones. According to Pew Research Center,1 nearly 77 percent of U.S. adults now own a smartphone, up from 35 percent in 2011. This makes the smartphone one of the most quickly embraced consumer technologies in history. Interestingly, while smartphone ownership is more common among youth and those who are more affluent, rates are rising rapidly among older and lower-income Americans as well. When mobile devices were first released they were used for calling and texting. Today, Americans use

Secular scientists claim that stars form “naturally” from enormous clouds of gas and dust. The newly-formed star is thought to be encircled by a thin, slowly-spinning disk of dusty material. Dust particles within the disk are thought to collide and stick together, through a hypothetical process called accretion, somehow forming more massive clumps of matter over vast amounts of time. These clumps become the cores of future plane… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Virgil Usher, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) With all the TV advertisements, so-called fitness ‘experts,’ doctors, and health publications, many people are brainwashed into believing that fat is the ‘greatest enemy’ when it comes to weight loss. But, in reality, nothing could be further from the truth. Healthy fats can actually help you lose weight and greatly improve your overall health. (as you’ll soon see.) Truth be told, the low-fat recommendations that we hear about are not as effective as most Americans are made to believe. If you think this …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Michael Denton explores a “miraculous convergence of properties” for life. Denton is both a medical doctor and a PhD biochemist, and now the author of the new book Children of Light: The Astonishing Properties of Sunlight That Make Us Possible (ebook available here). He lets his astonishment flow freely in this interview with host Sarah Chaffee, with topics ranging from the light of the sun to key chemicals here on earth. Taken together, it’s “an astonishing coincidence. … Science has discovered the fine-tuning… it’s not in doubt.… I’m blown away

The government is ratcheting up its efforts to convince Americans to get flu shots. “You can’t walk into a pharmacy without seeing lines, and the government is now telling preachers to tell their congregations to get flu shots,” says Dr. Russell Blaylock, renowned neurosurgeon and editor of the Blaylock Wellness Report. “I’ve never seen anything like it. “The incidence of flu across the United States is extremely low — there are virtually no outbreaks — and not a single child has died. Yet, the flu vaccine is being pushed as if it’s the greatest health advance ever discovered. “The vaccine

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, affects 15 to 30 percent of the American population, according to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. It (almost) goes without saying that poor digestion is a core reason for most chronic health problems. And, while pharmaceutical drugs may offer temporary relief of symptoms, they can feature toxic side effects – and they do nothing to address the root cause of poor digestion. The fact is: insufficient levels of digestive enzymes, coupled with bacterial overgrowth, can cause …read more Source: Natural Health 365

On Tuesday, he spoke about the Clarity of Scripture, reminding us that God’s Word means what it says. …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG
By Dr. Mercola Weeds are invasive plant species that can thrive in various environments.1 They typically produce a large number of seeds, which allows them to take over a location where they are not supposed to grow. Hence, gardeners exert tremendous effort to remove them whenever possible because their produce can suffer.2 However, not all weeds are inherently bad — some can actually be beneficial to your health, like mugwort. Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) is an aromatic plant with a rich history, with many ancient cultures having numerous uses for it. Its botanical name is derived from Artemis, the Greek goddess

By Dr. Mercola Fibromyalgia, characterized by chronic, widespread pain is an often-debilitating condition that primarily affects women. While as many as 10 million Americans have fibromyalgia, its cause remains a mystery. Brain scans of fibromyalgia patients have offered hard evidence that the pain they experience is indeed real — mainly because their threshold for tolerating pain impulses is substantially lower than that of most individuals. But the mechanism causing this lowered pain threshold is still unknown. Some experts, such as Dr. Frederick Wolfe, the director of the National Databank for Rheumatic Diseases and the lead author of the 1990 paper

By Julie Fidler Dads who smoke could be sentencing their offspring – and the offspring of generations to come – to cognitive problems, according to a new study of mice. When male mice were exposed to nicotine, their offspring showed signs of a mouse version of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), as well as abnormal behavior and learning impairments. [1] Study leader Pradeep Bhide, of Florida State University, said: “Until now, much attention has been focused on the effects of maternal nicotine exposure on their children. Not much had been known about the effects of paternal smoking on their children and

By Julie Fidler Having Type 2 diabetes doesn’t have to mean a life of disability or early death. A few lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, can reduce those risks, especially the risk of cardiovascular disease. Kicking cigarettes to the curb and closely following treatment protocols can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease “significantly,” according to a study published in The New England Journal of Medicine. In some cases, the risk can be completely eliminated. Aidin Rawshani, medical intern and doctoral student at the Institute of Medicine, Sahlgrenska Academy, Sweden, and author of the report, said: “This is definitely good

By Mike Barrett Contact lenses are so small that it’s easy to think you can flush them down the toilet and they’ll simply dissolve, but that’s far from the truth. The scientists behind a study presented at the American Chemical Society’s national meeting and exposition warn that flushing contact lenses add to the problem of microplastics littering both land and sea. An enormous number of contact lenses wind up contaminating the environment, the study shows, as 21% of wearers flush them down the toilet or the sink. In the United States, 14 billion contact lenses get trashed each year, including

By Sharon Thomas, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Do you have unwanted fat on your body? Unfortunately, it turns out that excess body fat doesn’t just sit there on your body and look ‘bad.’ Research clearly shows that fat cells can trigger an unhealthy inflammation response – especially in people who are prone to overeating. Incidentally, you may already have heard that an excess of fat cells promotes cancer cell growth in people with obesity. It’s mainly due to the stress on the hormonal system. But, here’s what the new …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola It’s recommended that school-age children get nine to 11 hours of sleep a night, while teens need eight to 10. Preschoolers and toddlers need even more to function optimally — ranging from 10 to 14 hours a night.1 But many kids are falling short on fulfilling this basic need, putting their physical and mental health at risk. In England, sleep disorders among children are also on the rise, an investigation by The Guardian revealed. The number of children and teens aged 16 years and under admitted to a hospital due to a sleep disorder

For Berlinski, a mathematician and author of The Deniable Darwin, the problem is quantitative and methodological. For Denton, a geneticist and author of the new Discovery Institute Press book Children of Light: The Astonishing Properties of Light that Make Us Possible, the problem is empirical.
