Probiotics Numerous studies have now shown the benefits of probiotics and prebiotics in reducing inflammation and oxidation. A recent meta-analysis indicated a significant reduction in serum CRP following probiotics.[1] Studies suggest the consumption of probiotic yogurt containing L. acidophilus and Bifidobacterium animalis in pregnant women for nine weeks led to a reduction in inflammation (CRP) as it did for colorectal cancer,[2] autoimmune disease,[3] and chronic kidney disease.[4] A number of studies have shown that prebiotics can benefit the elderly who suffe...

The best way to describe modern medicine is: a decades-old failing protocol, hanging by a thread and looking for more science to justify it. Modern medicine has focused too much on the economics of health care and has lost sight of what the real goal is—to prevent and reverse illness. The goal is to get people healthy. Modern medicine focuses on drug or surgical interventions, which frequently represent only a band-aid for symptoms. For example, cholesterol medication lowers cholesterol really well, but it does not reduce the risk of a heart attack more than 1%, and it...

The current medical model, which focuses on treating the symptoms with toxic pharmaceuticals, rather than preventing illness, is simply not working. We use more drugs than ever before and we are sicker than ever before. More and more research is showing that the over-prescription of pharmaceuticals is not only having no benefit but also causing serious harmful side effects. The medical system cannot cure chronic illness. However, you can prevent it and, if you let your body be the doctor, you can heal illness. But you can only do that when you give your body what it needs t...

American writer Upton Sinclair once wrote, “It is very difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on not understanding it.” To paraphrase Sinclair, it is very difficult to get a man to understand something when his entire career is built on understanding the opposing view. The medicine and health care industry around the world is too profitable and too powerful to allow the truth to get in its way. Even professionals with the best interests at heart when they begin studying medicine are easily corrupted by vested interests and money “...

Study shows protein fills you up more, increases metabolism while sugar slows metabolism and fat oxidation and increases calorie consumption. The amount of protein, fat and carbohydrates in the diet plays a more important role in maintaining a healthy body weight and preventing obesity than previously thought. In a study of 27 healthy weight adults increasing dietary protein decreased hunger and increased fullness. Although males were hungrier and less satisfied with the meals than females. However, the inclusion of a sugar sweetened beverage markedly suppressed diet ind...

Many people get confused about stomach acid and acidosis. These are two totally different things. In fact, the higher your stomach acid, the lower the acidosis or acid levels in the body. Let me explain. Your stomach and gastrointestinal tract form a beautiful, amazing tube that runs through your body, but not inside—they run through your body, not through your cells or in your blood. To get into the body, things have to pass over a barrier such as the gut wall, respiratory tract or skin. The stomach is meant to be acidic, very acidic so it can digest foods, particularly...

Cosmetics and personal care products include a wide range of products that are aimed at enhancing appearances and personal hygiene. These can include eye makeup, lipstick, foundation, shampoo and conditioner, face lotion, nail varnishes and removers, hair products including dyes and sprays, deodorants and perfumes, among others. The growing list of synthetic ingredients added to these products is turning the most innocent-looking shampoos, moisturisers and makeups into cocktails of toxins that could cause cancer or reproductive damage over years of sustained use. Increas...

The incidence of breast cancer has continued to escalate despite decades of research and billions of dollars of taxpayers’ money searching for a cure. The majority of cosmetics and personal care products contain synthetic chemical preservatives (parabens) and other chemicals that can exert estrogenic activity on breast cells and lead to the development of malignant tumours.[1] Several years ago, a link between underarm antiperspirant deodorants and breast cancer was found, however major breast cancer organisations with financial ties to cosmetics companies were quick to ...
