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 […]

This Is What Happens to Your Body When You Stop Exercising

[…]2015 study in the Journal of Applied Physiology found that people who did an eight-month bout of resistance and aerobic exercise saw an improvement in the blood glucose levels, but lost almost half of these benefits after 14 days of inactivity.” Around week four: Your strength starts slipping. While some people may notice their strength decline after about two weeks of inactivity, others will see a difference around week four. Thankfully our strength diminishes at a slower rate than our endurance. Within eight weeks: You may start to gain fat. By week six you should notice a difference on the scale or in the […]

Texas shelter pit bull euthanized while giving birth, newborn puppies also put down

[…]whelping box and assumed it was being handled. 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 […]

Could taking a probiotic alongside an Indian herbal remedy help you live to 100? Scientists claim the combination could boost the lifespan of humans

[…]days longer than flies in the control group, and also showed reduced traits of aging like insulin resistance, inflammation, and oxidative stress. 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. This axis is the name for the communication system between […]

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 […]

Shirataki Noodles: The Zero-Calorie “Miracle” Noodles

[…]has been shown to help lower blood sugar levels in people with diabetes and insulin resistance. 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 […]

NYT: For Leonard Cohen, the End Came With a Fall in the Night

[…]as side leg raises as well as special strength training designed just for senior adults. Yoga and resistance training using elastic bands and/or free weights or weight machines are also good. 7 minutes ago I got a notification on a page I follow faithfully (singer songwriter Leonard Cohen’s page) that he’d passed away. The live shows I saw of his are in my top 5 shows ever, and he will be missed by millions across the globe. I’ll leave you with this beautiful version of his song Hallelujah (covered by so many, like Jeff Buckley) in his […]

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 […]
