Stress. Everyone suffers from some amount of stress. But for those of us who experience it day in and day out, for years at a time, it takes a terrible physical toll, often in the form of adrenal fatigue. Last week I mentioned how you won’t get much help from your conventional medical doctor if you suspect adrenal fatigue is the reason you are tired, depressed and hurting. He’ll likely…
When it comes to keeping health-destroying toxins out of your body, much depends on the walls of your digestive tract — your first line of defense against many chronic diseases. After every meal, they are tasked with letting nutrients into the bloodstream that the body needs to rejuvenate itself while making sure unwanted chemicals and pathogens are eliminated. Unfortunately, many folks suffer from what is called “leaky gut syndrome.” That…
You may think you’re doing your body a favor by choosing zero-calorie sodas over regular ones, but you’re not. And you’re likely to still see an increase in your waist size if you choose zero-calorie sodas. A study published this year found that people who regularly drank diet sodas over a nine-year period put on three times the amount of body fat of those who did not drink diet sodas.…
When I was a senior in high school, I read Diet for a Small Planet and became a vegetarian. It was 1972, and the world was changing.

Then there is the chronic pain, which can wear down the knee structure over time, require constant medication and eventually surgery. This you want to avoid; the “letting go” of the issue for so long that arthritis sets in and surgery is required.…
So much research has come forward touting the health benefits of coffee. Sometimes it appears a little contradictory. But for the most part, coffee seems to come out on top as a drink that does much more good for you than not. And, though scientists aren’t always sure of the exact mechanism behind the benefits, as is the case with this latest claim, it’s hard to refute the findings. A…
High in fiber and vitamin C, apples have long been associated with good health. And as we continue to learn more about the apple’s bountiful benefits, the phrase, “an apple a day keeps the doctor away,” becomes more and more believable. Many individuals will often peel their apples before eating them, discarding a part of the fruit that has been known to be rich in nutrients. Now, researchers at the…
Toxic chemicals and pollutants are all around us — but one fact I was surprised to uncover was just how many toxins and chemicals are in our fragranced personal care products — the stuff we put on our face and lather our bodies with every day. Fragrances – in soap, shampoo, body wash, aftershave, deodorant, moisturizer, scented body spray, basically anything that smells — come with seriously unpleasant consequences for…
Anxiety can ruin your life — and your health. And if you’ve ever experienced it, as many American’s have, you can feel powerless at controlling it and the negative thoughts that race through your head. How can you stop it? Start with quieting the negative thoughts. The way to do that, say scientists at Binghamton University in Binghamton New York, is to go to bed earlier and sleep later. Their…
