7 Reasons To Give In To The Adult Coloring Book Trend

Coloring books for adults have become the latest trend, and unlike some fads, this one is actually really good for you. According to clinical psychologist Ben Michaelis, coloring is a stress-free activity that relaxes the amygdala — the fear center of the brain — and allows your mind to get the rest it needs. But coloring has other indirect health benefits as well. Even if it didn’t make us healthier, many of us would still probably be coloring as adults.

NY TImes: American Cancer Society, realizing the dangers, recommends fewer mammograms

We’re so happy that The American Cancer Society has come to their senses and admitted the dangers and inaccuracies of mammograms, something my own doctor told me years ago. We’ve written before about how some mainstream physicians (The breast hereditary expert at the University of Chicago notes that mammograms for women who carry the BRCA are dangerous and suggests MRI’s.) have even admitted that mammograms are often misread. Yet sadly, we still have friends who have had mastectomies only to find out, after having their mammogram read, that they never had breast cancer at all. My MD, who has...

Monsanto Stunned – California Confirms ‘Roundup’ Will Be Labeled “Cancer Causing”

Sacramento, CA — California just dealt Monsanto a blow as the state’s Environmental Protection Agency will now list glyphosate — the toxic main ingredient in the U.S.’ best-selling weedkiller, Roundup — as known to cause cancer. Under the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 — usually referred to as Proposition 65, its original name — chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm are required to be listed and published by the state. Chemicals also end up on the list if found to be carcinogenic by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) — a...
