[…]behavioral issues), and nearly all women have had some level of BPA exposure. BPA is the chemical found in the coatings of various food containers and is consumed when the chemical is released into the food during heating. Looking at blood samples from pregnant women who were admitted to hospital for delivery, as well as amniotic fluid from the fetuses, they found that women who had higher levels of BPA in their bloodstream were more likely to have a preterm birth than women who recorded lower levels. The team published their study in The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine. […]
[…]aloe leaf, is a common household remedy for minor cuts and burns, as well as sunburns. It can be found in many commercial skin lotions and cosmetics. Aloe contains active compounds that may reduce pain and inflammation and stimulate skin growth and repair. It is also an effective moisturizing agent. For this reason, aloe vera gel has gained tremendous popularity for the relief of burns. Aloe is best used for minor burns and skin irritations and should never be applied to an open wound. For herpes and other skin conditions: Preliminary evidence suggests that aloe gel may improve symptoms of genital […]
[…]police were “unable to speculate,” reserve owner Nick Fox, 60, unabashedly stated, “We found enough body parts and three pairs of empty shoes, which suggest to us that the lions ate at least three of them but it is thick bush and there could be more.” Additionally, CNN reported that authorities also found a high-powered rifle with a silencer, wire cutters and an ax that Fox said would have been used to remove a poached rhino’s horns, which can fetch hefty sums on the black market. Rhinos are endangered and are prized for their horns, according to the World Wildlife […]
[…]world. The group looked at levels of carcinogens and toxic contaminants in the drinking water and found small to midsize communities faced some of the greatest cancer risks.”1 In 495 water systems affecting more than 3 million people, there was a cancer risk greater than 1 additional case per 1,000 people.1 In 1,177 systems, affecting more than 28 million people, there was a risk of 1 per 1,000 to 1 per 10,000 people.1 Arsenic contributed to an additional 7,251 estimated cancer cases.1 Other potentially harmful chemicals included various disinfectant byproducts and hexavalent chromium, also known as chromium-6 or the “Erin […]
[…]public health labs about the test and began shipping it. Lanciotti compared the two tests and found that Trioplex missed 39 percent of Zika infections that were detected by Singleplex. An independent lab came to the same conclusion. A study by the CDC lab in Puerto Rico found no difference in sensitivity. Lanciotti disagreed with the decision and in mid-April, he emailed his contacts at about 30 public health laboratories. The CDC notified the state labs about which tests were recommended but didn’t address the differences in performance directly. In mid-May, Lanciotti emailed senior CDC leaders and asked again that the […]
[…]entirely different: A recent study of Chinese babies born to mothers exposed to the pesticide found decreased motor function at nine months. A 2016 study found a 25 percent increase in the rate of autism in areas where aerial spraying is conducted. Again, Dr Hall and Mattson have started a gofundme page to gather support. They hope to legally stop the ongoing spraying AND persuade authorities out of court to stop using […]
[…]have anti-viral abilities with a number of viruses. “Scientific research published in 2015 found that extracts of chaga had an anti-viral affect on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1. Chaga has also been shown in animal studies to have anti-viral effects when it comes to the hepatitis C virus. Using animal cells, the researchers found that the chaga extract was able to decrease the infective properties of the hepatitis C virus by 100 fold in just 10 minutes.” 4. It’s an inflammation reducer- Chaga is also able to reduce inflammation thanks to its ability to “suppress the expression of chemical mediators of inflammation.” 5. It improves […]
[…]believe that this may happen because the drugs alter their gut bacteria. They also found that an early use of antibiotics also raised the chances of allergies later in life. Looking at the health records of children born between 2001 and 2013 who were covered by Tricare (insurance program for active duty and retired military personnel and their families), the team found that 9 percent of the babies received antacids. Over the course of four years, “more than half of all the children developed allergies to foods or medications, rashes, asthma, hay fever or other allergic diseases.” While the study couldn’t […]
[…]than those on a normal diet. Long used to help manage epilepsy in children, the group found that behaviors like hyperactivity, social withdrawal, and memory deficits happened less frequently. This discovery led Sarnyai and his colleagues to, “hypothesize that this same process of providing an alternative energy source for the body could be circumventing pathways in the brain – in particular, the abnormally functioning cellular energy pathways that are suspected to cause the mental health problems that characterize schizophrenia, including hallucinations, delusions, and muddled thoughts.” Using this new diet the majority of a person’s energy would come from fat; dieters would consume butter, […]
[…]other nation. Spices Spices offer numerous health-promoting benefits, and certain spices have been found to aid in the prevention and treatment of cancer. Research has associated black pepper and black cumin seedintake with a lower incidence of colon cancer.[40][41][42] Rosemary is known to help prevent DNA damage by carcinogens and suppress cancer cell proliferation.[43][44][45] Capsaicin, an ingredient found in chili peppers, kills prostate cancer cells.[46] Evidence suggests that parsley combats lung and breast cancer.[47][48] References [1] “41 percent of Americans will get cancer.” UPI.com. http://www.upi.com/Health_News/2010/05/06/41-percent-of-Americans-will-get-cancer/UPI-75711273192042/ (accessed December 2, 2013).

[…]for Tax Fairness” (a coalition of 400 national and state-level progressive groups) found, “The study estimated the cost to Wisconsin’s taxpayers of Walmart’s low wages and benefits, which often force workers to rely on various public assistance programs. It found that a single Walmart Supercenter cost taxpayers between $904,542 and $1.75 million per year, or between $3,015 and $5,815 on average for each of 300 workers.” The coalition then took the mid-point of that range, $4,415, and multiplied it by Walmart’s approximately 1.4 million workers to come up with an estimate of the overall taxpayers’ bill. So, is Wal-Mart really […]
[…]melanoma, 2,223 SCC, and 17,556 BCC cases, and 736 melanoma, 1,756 SCC, and 13,092 BCC cases were found in the NHS and HPFS studies, respectively. No association between total fat intake and risk of skin cancer was identified in the two prospective studies. Data showed that the risk for developing SCC and BCC was associated with a higher intake of polyunsaturated fats. While the risks of SCC, BCC, and melanoma were associated with a higher omega-6 fat intake, omega-3 dietary fat intake was found to be associated with risk of BCC but not with SCC or melanoma. No other fats […]
[…]parts per trillion (ppt). At the front end of the report was the city of Lapeer. State officials found PFOS in Flint River fish that led them to the wastewater plant and a chrome plating company in the city. This industrial contamination allowed 2,000-ppt of PFOS to flow into the river from the plant. This resulted in PFOS showing up in the city’s biosolids at 2,100 parts per billion (ppb), which is a much greater amount. Lapeer had been land-applying that waste, including on a nearby field it leased to a farmer who, until 2018, grew soybeans. A portion of […]
[…]health and behavior over the years, estimating exposure to ultraviolet B rays.” The team found: Those with the highest UVB exposure, especially as teenagers and young adults, had around a 30 percent lower risk for myopia than those with the lowest exposure. When a subject had more schooling their risk of nearsightedness increased, by double. People with the highest blood levels of lutein, a nutrient found in leafy vegetables, had a 43 percent reduced risk of nearsightedness compared with those with the lowest levels. Obviously more study needs to be done but in general, it seems that spending time outdoors […]
[…]water, with the goal of raising the body’s core temperature by one degree. What they found was that while cycling burned many more calories (not surprising) relaxing in the hot bath burned 130 calories, about the amount burned on a half-hour walk. Researchers also tracked the blood sugar of the participants for 24 hours after the tests and found that “peak blood sugar was around 10 percent lower when a bath was taken in place of the bike ride. The bath also seemed to have the same effect as exercise when it came to the anti-inflammatory response post-activity for each of […]
[…]tests were performed and results are pending, but “no illegal narcotics were found” at Moran’s residence in New Salisbury, Ind., about 20 miles from Louisville, Ky. The statement did not say what kind of cancer Moran had. Happy Days” actress Erin Moran has died at age 56. Moran, who found fame as Joanie Cunningham in the hit ABC sitcom Happy Days and the spinoff “Joanie Loves Chachi,” faced a downward spiral in 2012 when she wound up down on her luck without a place to live. She was evicted from her home in an Indiana trailer park in 2012. […]
[…]homes without plants, in areas void of vegetation.” How Does Green Impact Health? This link found between mortality rate and the number of green plants is based on several different research-backed components. Those who surround themselves with plants clearly demonstrate a much lower level of depression. Additionally, those who own plants or live near them actually have “increased opportunities for social engagement, higher levels of physical activity and reduced exposure to air pollution.” Just one of these results is good enough to suggest a move to the country, but all of them present some pretty hefty encouragement!

[…]and 10 hours after applying nail polish, in each one of the study participants, researchers found heightened levels of Triphenyl phosphate. Triphenyl Phosphate This toxin can have a big effect on metabolism, hormone regulation, and reproductive organs. Because young girls’ reproductive organs, endocrine system, and hormones are still developing, they are at a greater risk of developing complications from triphenyl phosphate exposure. TPHP is also known to be a neurotoxin, skin irritant, endocrine toxin and something that negatively affects healthy reproductive organ development Toluene Toluene is a clear solvent used in paint thinners, adhesives, fingernail polish, and gasoline. Toluene, which evaporates quickly, has also […]
[…]nearby have been radiocarbon dated to be around 32,000 years old. A second viable nematode was found in a permafrost sample approximately 41,700 years old collected around 11 feet below the surface.” Researchers say they used proper sterility procedures during the collection and transportation of the samples and noted that seasonal thawing wouldn’t have reached the depths at which these nematodes were found, which would severely limit sample movement or an introduction of present-day nematodes. Therefore, if these findings are legitimate, it might help researchers understand how some species survive such extreme temperatures and how these particular nematodes have evolved […]
[…]less sleep is linked to increased weight. These rumors, though, are false. The National Sleep Foundations 2013 “Sleep in America” poll found that a whopping 83% of participants who exercised at each day (at any time of day) experienced better sleep at night. So, if you’re having a difficult time sleeping, try a calming workout, like yoga or stretching, in order to catch more of those zzz’s. RELATED STORY: Better sleep can build emotional resilience Achieving and maintaining your goal weight can sometimes feel like an uphill battle. It’s not as simple as exercising a bit more or eating a […]
