Daily Essential Oils User Guide

[…]this mixture daily for extended periods of time (more than 2 weeks). Our bodies quickly develop resistance and so do bacteria and viruses! Alternatively, consider switching up the protocol with a non-essential oil based product. Do not consume essential oils on a regular basis for “prevention.” Not only is it a waste of money, it is oftentimes unneeded and you may end up causing damage to your body. At one point of my early EO career, I was so enthusiastic about using them that I was taking a couple drops of a variety of oils in my mouth (straight, undiluted) every […]

Four Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Wear Sunscreen

Editor’s note: A few additional pieces to read at the bottom are Dr Oz’s great piece, “Your Sunscreen may be poisoning you” and a few others. Our ideas about the sun and skin health, here in the US, are that the sun should be feared; it causes cancer and the only way to protect ourselves is by slathering our bodies with sunscreen. However, for those who have families and have researched the chemicals present in sunscreens, that “only solution” might not sit too well. So, if you are like me or are starting down a whole body health path, here […]

[…]state that keeps a watchful eye on everyone, in search of possible rebels and points of resistance. Censorship is the norm in this world, and is so extreme that individuals can become “unpersons” who are essentially deleted from society because their ideas were considered dangerous by the establishment. This is an idea that is very familiar to activists and independent journalists who are being removed from the public conversation for speaking out about government and corporate corruption on social media.

20 Common Reasons Why You’re Not Losing Weight

[…]Weights One of the most important things you can do when losing weight is to do some form of resistance training, like lifting weights.

[…]from these infections. However, they are difficult to treat, and increasing antifungal drug resistance often leads to a relapse.” The authors suggest curcumin might offer an ideal natural alternative: Curcumin, a natural component that is isolated from the rhizome of Curcuma longa plants, has attracted great interest among many scientists studying solid cancers over the last half century. Interestingly, curcumin provides an ideal alternative to current therapies because of its relatively safe profile, even at high doses. To date, curcumin’s potent antifungal activity against different strains of Candida, Cryptococcus, Aspergillus, Trichosporon and Paracoccidioides have been reported, indicating that curcumin anticancer […]

[…]can do it We’ve known for a long time that prolonged heavy exercise, though, may reduce resistance to infectious disease, manifested by an apparent two- to six-fold increase in upper respiratory tract infection symptoms for several weeks following marathon running. RELATED STORY: What Are the Benefits of High Intensity Weight Training? Sports coaches are advised to monitor immune function since illness could ultimately lead to a decrease in performance. Therefore, it may be necessary to take protective actions to minimize contact with cold viruses, for example. Athletes can’t get away with just washing their hands and wearing a mask, though, because upper respiratory tract infections are […]

Most cheese products tainted with dangerous plastic chemicals, study reveals

[…]as well as learning disabilities, aggression, hyperactivity, increased blood pressure, insulin resistance in older males, endometriosis in women, and a variety of other adverse effects. There is strong evidence that phthalates interfere with testosterone production, a hormone vital to normal reproductive development. Deficiency results in several reproductive abnormalities including genital malformation, low sperm count, and even increased risk for testicular cancer later in life. Phthalates are clearly a health risk even at very low levels of exposure, especially for pregnant women, infants and children. In the cheese study, researchers tested for 10 different phthalates in a variety of products, including 10 varieties of […]

Unfortunately (and to my surprise), I was met with resistance from an AMW employee when I attempted to enter G building a bit later while looking for a new volunteer. I was told to give them a minute. I could see the AMW staff vet, a few other kennel attendants, and a large, portable metal cage in the building. I immediately knew they were gathering mama from G7. I happened to pass another AMW employee and asked if she was being euthanized. He said that they were probably just moving her to […]

In fact, Triphala was used in the study because of Dr Westfall’s interest in traditional Indian medicine and how it might impact neurodegenerative diseases. The results were so amazing that researchers now believe the study will impact future research and treatment in diabetes, obesity, neurodegeneration, depression and even cancer. “Studies have shown the axis to play a role in a range of conditions, from irritable bowel syndrome to depression.

11 simple ways to start clean eating today

[…]little nutritional value. Research has linked refined carb consumption to inflammation, insulin resistance, fatty liver, and obesity. In contrast, whole grains — which provide more nutrients and fiber — may reduce inflammation and promote better gut health. In one study in 2,834 people, those who consumed mostly whole grains were less likely to have excess belly fat than those who focused on refined grains. If you eat grains, choose the least processed kinds, such as sprouted grain bread and steel-cut oats. Stay away from ready-to-eat cereals, white bread, and other refined carbs. SUMMARY: Refined grains are inflammatory, as they lack fiber […]

Dr. Max Gerson… A cure that cost his life.

[…]which responded to the dietetic treatment showed clearly that the human body lost part of its resistance and healing power, as he left the way of natural nutrition for generations. The fundamental damage starts with the use of artificial fertilizer for vegetables and fruits as well as for fodder. Thus the chemically transformed vegetarian and meat nourishment, increasing through generations, transforms the organs and functions of the human body in the wrong direction. Another basic defect lies in the waste of excrement’s of the cities. Instead of returning the natural manure to the fruit-bearing soil, it is led into the […]

Because viscous fiber delays stomach emptying, blood sugar and insulin levels rise more gradually as nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream. In one study, people with type 2 diabetes who took glucomannan for 3 weeks had a significant reduction in fructosamine, which is a test that reflects blood sugar levels over a period of 2–3 weeks. In another study, type 2 diabetics who took a single dose of glucomannan before a glucose load had significantly lower blood sugar levels 2 hours later, compared to […]

US Govt Has Been Funding This Israeli Cannabis Researcher For 50 Years

[…]team approximately $100,000 per year to study, for example, how cannabinoids can lower human resistance to antibiotics. Even if the motivations for funding were asinine, the fact is the U.S. government funded the discovery of the active compounds in cannabis and some of their first medical applications. Instead of acknowledging these advancements and using them to guide lawmaking, the U.S. continues insisting to this day that cannabis has no medical value. It boggles the mind how the feds can cling to this position, considering not only the revelations of Mechoulam but also the fact that cannabis had already become a […]
