[…]of hydrogen that is hard to separate. It is considered to be nearly harmless. Tepco also faces resistance from fishermen, after the utility company admitted last year that the water in its tanks still included contaminants beside tritium. Senior nuclear specialist with Greenpeace Germany, Shaun Burnie,said in an email: “The government must commit to the only environmentally acceptable option for managing this water crisis which is long term storage and processing to remove radioactivity, including tritium.”1 We will keep you updated on this unfortunate […]
[…]this mechanism.” – Wilfred, Nwga RELATED STORY: Cannabis compound CBD could be used as antibiotic, researchers say Scientists have found success in treating cancer with cannabis compounds in the past. The main components of the plant, THC and CBD, have been found beneficial in the treatment of lung, blood skin, and liver cancer, among others, but until recently have been kept illegal by big money interests like the alcohol and prison industries, which benefit from the illegality of these highly medicinal compounds. Many anecdotal cases also exist of patients who believe that cannabis cured their cancer, including Cheryl Pearson who […]

[…]increased the animal’s risk for skin cancer. And yet another study implied it may help spread antibiotic resistance. RELATED STORY: We add it to drinking water for our teeth — but is fluoride hurting us? The FDA began to restrict some chemicals, including triclosan, in 2016 because studies found they were not safe for long-term daily use. In April, the FDA finally completely banned it for use in over-the-counter hand sanitizers. However, it remains in some products, and one of them is toothpaste. Past studies looking at triclosan in toothpaste have suggested it is safe, but clearly more research is […]
[…]like vancomycin or daptomycin, we found cannabidiol has a very low propensity to induce resistance, which hopefully means it would be safe to use without causing resistance to rapidly appear.”1 RELATED STORY: 7 benefits and uses of CBD Oil (plus side effects) CBD was effective against every Gram-positive bacteria that was tested. However, according to the American College of Healthcare Sciences, the study revealed it would not work against Gram-negative bacteria because even though it has a thin cell membrane, it is not easy to penetrate, making it more difficult for antibiotic treatment. Dr. Andrew Edwards, a non-clinical Lecturer in […]

[…]the European Union extended a license to use glyphosate for another five years despite resistance from some member states. Hopefully, after that, it will be phased out or banned. RELATED STORY: French court cancels Monsanto weedkiller permit on safety grounds Glyphosate is a toxic ingredient in the popular weedkiller called Roundup. As we’ve shared with you numerous times, glyphosate is present at all levels of the food chain: in water, plants, animals, and even in humans. Every single study that has measured human contamination with glyphosate has found it! It is EVERYWHERE. It is killing off our insect population, and it […]
[…]products containing thiamethoxam, essential for controlling destructive pests, managing resistance, and supporting integrated pest management.”1 RELATED: Battered Bees and the Threat to Our Food Farmers will still have access to other neonic-based pesticides for now, but, according to Kimbrell: “This entire class of active ingredient soon will be up for re-registration [under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act] by 2022. These first 12 were just an interim step.”1 Environmental groups, thankfully, are pressuring the EPA for a full ban on ALL neonics use outdoors in the coming years, based on related endangered species concerns. In fact, the European Union […]
[…]most toxic chemical ever approved for commercial use. Glyphosate is now linked to kidney disease, antibiotic resistant bacteria, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, depression, ADHD, autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, multiple sclerosis, cancer, cachexia, infertility, and developmental malformations. It destroys the microbiome of humans and plants, which is the root cause of many modern diseases. RELATED: Analysis: EPA ignored scientific research showing Monsanto’s glyphosate causes cancer The Glyphosate Grain Problem Since commercial wheat and other grains today are NOT GMO plants, a direct spraying of an herbicide containing glyphosate would kill them. So how are these grains ending up with glyphosate […]
[…]as, despite removal of the maximum dietary fat intake restriction from guidelines, a major resistance against saturated fats remains. Setting aside the issue of whether or not saturated fats should be restricted at all, given the abundance of contrary evidence in the medical literature, the Edinburgh Medical School researcher reported that such guidelines do not distinguish between different types of saturated fats. Saturated fats can be found in animal products, such as butter, as well as plant sources, such as coconuts and date palms. The rise in high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) with coconut oil consumption is certainly a compelling finding. Results from a […]
