Martin Pall, Ph.D., has identified and published research describing the likely molecular mechanisms of how EMFs from cellphones and wireless technologies damage plants, animals and humans.1,2 ,3,4 Pall has a bachelor’s in physics from Johns Hopkins and a Ph.D. in biochemistry and genetics from Caltech, and is uniquely qualified for this type of research. For the past 18 years, he’s been scouring the medical …read more Source: mercola

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Even if you rarely cook or bake, if you have anything in your cupboard in the way of spices, cinnamon is probably one of them. The warming, fragrant powder harvested from the bark of a tropical evergreen bush not only is tasty in a plethora of dishes both sweet and savory, but has a long history of use as a medicinal. Ayurvedic medicine originated in India more than 3,000 years ago. Maharishi Ayurveda Products International (MAPI) notes that cinnamon is often used for Ayurvedic recipes to enhance the bioavailability of other herbs while combining

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola This year marks the 20th anniversary of “First Do No Harm,” a film directed by American movie director and writer Jim Abrahams. Based on real-life events, the film relates the successful treatment of one boy’s severe case of epilepsy using a ketogenic diet. Prior to the fictionalized family’s discovery of the diet, their youngest son, Robbie, was given many pharmaceutical medications, some of which caused constipation, fevers, rashes and other harmful side effects, including at least one near-death episode. Aspects of the storyline mirror Abrahams’ own experience with his infant son Charlie, who makes

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) If you suffer with a chronic illness – you may find the information (here) about CBD to be a great place to begin your journey back to optimal health. At first glance, the theory that some people suffer with pain due to a “deficiency” of cannabinoids – the psychoactive compounds in marijuana – could pass for a tongue-in-cheek witticism shared among cannabis enthusiasts. This is especially true in light of the suggested “remedy” of ingesting plant-based cannabinoids to correct the deficiency. Yet, scientific evidence supports the fact that this …read more Source: Natural Health

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Everyone knows how good it feels to be in a natural environment. Now scientific research is proving the strong relationship between spending (more) time in nature and feeling less depression and anxiety. This is particularly important for those suffering with PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder. A study by the Institute for European environmental Policy (IEEP) found that persons living close to natural spaces were less likely to suffer from depression and obesity. They were also more naturally active, bringing them the additional mood-boosting brain and body chemistry …read more Source: Natural Health 365

Its leaves curl downward and in on themselves like tiny, broken umbrellas. It’s the telltale mark of inadvertent exposure to a controversial herbicide called dicamba. “This is crazy.

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Most kids love hearing people comment on how tall they’re getting. In some circles, particularly homes where sports like volleyball or basketball are revered and often played, being tall is considered a definite plus. But new research has emerged that suggests being taller — or significantly shorter than average — isn’t necessarily better in terms of health and may even pose health risks. Part of the impact comes from how your height might affect your organs, studies say, such as one published in the journal Circulation: Cardiovascular Genetics.1 Scientists explored how height and venous

As only a small fraction of cases actually gets reported, the agency adds that the actual incidence of this disease in likely much higher. On top of that, emerging studies show that Bartonella disease, a vector-borne infection – often described as a ‘Lyme disease co-infection (but not entirely accurate) – can often be overlooked by most uninformed doctors. Bartonella disease is a lifedraining infection – often …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Dr. Veronique Desaulniers (NaturalHealth365) Nucleotides can be considered the “unsung hero” within the body – especially for the digestive system. And, although they are not well-known, they are essential to the creation of new DNA and RNA and are found in just about every cell in your body. New evidence points to their role in digestive repair as well as potential cancer prevention. With an estimated 74 percent of Americans currently dealing with gut health issues and digestive discomfort of some sort and an estimated 1,688,780 new cancer cases expected by the end …read more Source: Natural Health 365

Also, did man-made climate change increase the intensity of the storms and the flooding? Why do we see incredible examples of compassion and self-sacrifice alongside looting and price gouging? Dr. Terry Mortenson, an Answers in Genesis researcher, writer, and speaker, recently appeared as a guest on the nationally syndicated Christian radio program The Christian Worldview, hosted by David Wheaton. In light of the recent flooding and catastrophic damage, he answered the question of why God allows suffering and

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola While many health screens and lab tests are overrated or unnecessary, there are a few that are vitally important, such as vitamin D. I recommend checking your vitamin D level at least twice a year. Two other really important tests are serum ferritin (which measures stored iron) and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase or sometimes called gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT; a liver enzyme correlated with iron toxicity, disease risk and all-cause mortality). By monitoring your serum ferritin and GGT levels and taking steps to lower them if they’re too high, you can avoid serious health problems. For adults, I

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Every age group, from children to seniors, is at risk for being diagnosed with a condition they may not actually have, and being prescribed medications they do not need. In an increasingly litigious environment, where attorneys advertise for clients who may have had a missed diagnosis or experienced a side effect from a prescribed medication, physicians are increasingly caught between their desire to individualize care for their patients and the need to follow published standards of care to protect their licenses. In other words, the fear of medical malpractice lawsuits is a very real

The research was conducted by scientists at Tohuku University in Japan. Keep in mind (no pun intended), that these benefits of eating citrus fruits were found to be substantial. In fact, there was as much as a 23 percent average risk reduction for getting Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.
