Harvard Business Review... Alyssa Mastromonaco is no stranger to tough conversations: she served as White House deputy chief of staff for operations under President Obama, was an executive at Vice and A&E, and is Senior Advisor and spokesperson at NARAL Pro-Choice America. So when Mastromonaco switched to a new antidepressant, she decided to tell her boss. “I told the CEO that I was on Zoloft and was transitioning to Wellbutrin,” Mastromonaco said. “I can react strongly to meds, so I was worried switching would shift my mood and wanted her to know why. I talked about it like it was the most normal thing in the world —it is!” Her boss was supportive. “You ...

How Much Fiber Do You Need In Your Diet? Sadhana Bharanidharan 1 day ago © Vitalii Pavlyshynets/Unsplash When increasing your fiber intake, it is recommended that you also drink enough water. Apples, bananas, and kiwis are some of the fruits that provide fiber. Did you know that many Americans do not consume the recommended amount of dietary fiber every day? Unfortunately, a lot of us who are deficient are not even aware of it. Eating enough fiber is important for maintaining weight, lowering cholesterol, improving digestion and reducing the risk of various diseases. So how much fiber do we really need? According to the national dietary guidelines for adults aged between 18 and ...
Air Pollution and Noise Up Risk for Heart Attacks

TEHRAN (FNA)- Air pollution and transportation noise are both associated with an increased risk of heart attacks. Studies on air pollution, which do not take into account traffic noise, tend to overestimate the long-term effect of air pollution on heart attacks. Where air pollution is high, the level of transportation noise is usually also elevated. Not only air pollution negatively impacts on health, but also car, train and aircraft noise increases the risk for cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, as previous research has demonstrated. Studies investigating the effect of air pollution without sufficiently taking into account the impact that noise exhibits on health, might overestimate ...

The US Vaccine Advisory Panel, called the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), is the group that approves vaccines for public use in the United States. Most members have connections to the pharmaceutical (aka vaccine) industry. This 4-minute video was taken from a recent ACIP meeting discussing the approval of a new Hepatitis B vaccine for ADULTS. The vaccine uses a new ingredient that has NEVER been used before…and never tested for safety by anyone other than the vaccine maker. Pre-approval studies signaled an increase in heart attacks and possibly autoimmune issues…but under pressure from vaccine makers, the committee unanimously APPROVES the vaccine. ...

Medical Xpress... The first study investigating the mechanism of how a disease develops using human organ-on-a-chip technology has been successfully completed by engineers at The University of Texas at Austin. Researchers from the Cockrell School of Engineering were able to shed light on a part of the human body—the digestive system—where many questions remain unanswered. Using their "gut inflammation-on-a-chip" microphysiological system, the research team confirmed that intestinal barrier disruption is the onset initiator of gut inflammation. The study also includes evidence that casts doubt on the conventional wisdom of taking probiotics—live bacteria that are ...

The 16 Fake, Sneaky Names Food Companies Use For MSG

At first, I thought the headaches and dizziness I was getting were related to stress. I had recently graduated from college, moved to a new city and started a new job. After a while, though, I began to notice a pattern. I typically got the symptoms after eating from a salad buffet or after having certain Chinese foods. I did some research and discovered I was reacting to monosodium glutamate (MSG). Since that time, I have paid close attention to ingredient labels and restaurant menu descriptions that contain MSG. However, keeping MSG out of my diet – and now my family’s diet – is much trickier than I initially thought. It still is in many of the foods found on our ...
All Found Murdered! Doctors Who Discovered Cancer Enzymes in Vaccines

A number of holistic doctors in Florida, over 60 of them within one year, who have been found, killed or dead all have one common denominator. They had all found out that an enzyme protein was cancer causing and the protein with the name of Nagalese had been added to vaccines that had been given to humans and this is something that has been happening on a global scale. Doctors Were Said To Be Getting Ready To Reveal Findings Nagalese is said to be an enzyme that stops vitamin D from being produced in the body and so stops the natural ability of the body to kill off any cancer cells. It is also a protein that is created by cancer cells and can be found in high concentrations in children ...
When Pink Turns Red

Whew! We’ve survived another October with its onslaught of pink ribbons. Imagine October before the medical-industrial complex turned it into a spool of Pepto-Bismol bows. What a magnificent month of refreshingly brisk days and particolored leaves, cider and woodsmoke! Yet our degenerate age desecrates these glorious weeks with an orgy of national vulgarity and endless emphasis on the most obvious portion of the female anatomy. As always when civilization marches into the sewer, Leviathan led it there. Not only does the “Executive Office of the President” threaten to steal our money “because cancer” (though perhaps the puerile among us welcome the change from ...

MIT... Anti-aging pioneer Judith Campisi explains how a recent breakthrough could ward off age-related disease. Judith Campisi has been a leading figure in the biology of aging since the early 1990s, when her research on the basic mechanisms of cancer revealed an unexpected finding—that cells enter a phase known as senescence that prevents them from becoming cancerous. More than 25 years later, the insight has led to a new kind of drug that may slow or modestly reverse human aging. Campisi’s research is on the role of cellular senescence in cancer and other age-related diseases. Senescent cells undergo a transition into a twilight state where they are still active but no longer ...
You are 550% more likely to get a respiratory infection if you receive the flu vaccine

Let’s assume for a moment that the flu vaccine provided a 100 percent guarantee against contracting influenza (which it doesn’t, but just pretend it does). Would it make sense to vaccinate your family against the flu if doing so meant you increased their risk of contracting other upper respiratory illnesses by more than five times? Of course not! Reducing the risk of contracting one illness only to heighten the risk of multiple others is simply illogical. And yet that is exactly what the flu vaccine – which is only between 33 and 70 percent effective, anyway – does. A study published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases actually found that not only did the ...
Exercises may improve memory through a bone hormone

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23 (Xinhua) -- American researchers revealed how a bone hormone reversed memory loss in the aging brain in mice, lending new insights into how exercise could positively affect the brain. The study published on Tuesday in the journal Cell Reports showed that the naturally occurring hormone called osteocalcin worked with a protein to keep the memory. It stands to spur further investigations into the molecular machinery that underlies memory and how that machinery can be manipulated to improve it. "We are not only building a detailed understanding of how age-related memory loss originates in the brain, we've shown how osteocalcin interacts with key proteins in ...

Life expectancy in 2040 is set to rise at least a little in all nations but the rankings will change dramatically, with Spain taking the top spot while China and the United States trade places, researchers say. With a projected average lifespan of nearly 85.8 years, Spain – formerly in 4th place – will dethrone Japan, which sits atop the rankings today with a lifespan of 83.7 years, and will drop to 2nd place in 2040. Singapore will stay in third place, with life expectancy rising from 83.3 to 85.4 years. Hong Kong, which has the world’s highest average life expectancy, according to Japan’s welfare ministry, was not ranked in the study. Eight of the ...
Science BOMBSHELL: Fluoridated water linked to ADHD brain damage
Post Date: 2018-10-21 19:35:18 by Horse

There are many reasons to oppose fluoridated water. Not only is it a form of government-dictated mass medication, research has consistently shown that fluoride consumption has a host of ill effects on human health. Recent research has once again confirmed that fluoride is a neurotoxin — with developing fetuses and young children being the most susceptible to its deleterious effects. Scientists from the University of Toronto recently confirmed that exposure to high levels of fluoride in the womb increases ADHD-like symptoms in school-aged children. Dr. Morteza Bashash, the study’s lead author and researcher at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health, commented on the findings and ...

The University of Southern California continues to reckon with sexual assault allegations leveled against its former campus gynecologist George Tyndall. On Thursday, two new lawsuits were filed on behalf of 93 additional women who claim the university purposefully concealed the abuse—which brings the total number of Tyndall's accusers to about 500. The new claims come after 51 women came forward back in July. They joined six women who had alleged in a lawsuit filed in May that USC had failed to protect them from Tyndall's abuse and mishandled complaints about his behavior, as well as dozens of others, bringing the total number of accusers at that point to more than 200. ...

Medical Express... A new study has shown that eating vegetable nitrates, found mainly in green leafy vegetables and beetroot, could help reduce your risk of developing early-stage age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Researchers at the Westmead Institute for Medical Research interviewed more than 2,000 Australian adults aged over 49 and followed them over a 15-year period. The research showed that people who ate between 100 to 142 mgs of vegetable nitrates each day had a 35% lower risk of developing early AMD than people who ate less than 69mgs of vegetable nitrates each day. Lead Researcher Associate Professor Bamini Gopinath from the Westmead Institute and the University of Sydney ...
Possible New Therapy for Hearing Loss

TEHRAN (FNA) Researchers have taken an important step toward what may become a new approach to restore the hearing loss. In a new study, out today in the European Journal of Neuroscience, scientists have been able to regrow the sensory hair cells found in the cochlea -- a part of the inner ear -- that converts sound vibrations into electrical signals and can be permanently lost due to age or noise damage. Hearing impairment has long been accepted as a fact of life for the aging population -- an estimated 30 million Americans suffer from some degree of hearing loss. However, scientists have long observed that other animals -- namely birds, frogs, and fish -- have been shown to have the ...

What happened when I ate fish at every meal for a year A. Pawlowski 8 hrs ago © Getty Images Salmon Paul Greenberg makes a mean plate of spaghetti and fish balls. The journalist spent a year eating seafood at every single meal, enjoying it grilled, broiled, fried, smoked and packed in olive oil, with the recipes becoming more "inventive" as he went along. His daily fish feast injected his diet with an abundance of fish oil — a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids. How would all that goodness affect Greenberg's body? He was a one-man experiment in a world crazy about omega-3s, a type of healthy fat humans must get from food. Greenberg explored the obsession and ...
