  STORY AT-A-GLANCE While modern medicine successfully treats acute problems, it has nothing to offer for chronic conditions, as the solution for chronic health problems requires real food Real food is medicine. Processed food is poison, and there's no medicine that can undo the damage of processed food Two bulwarks against truth about health are the medical establishment, which doesn’t want to admit drugs cannot treat foundational causes of disease, and the food industry, which doesn't want you to know that processed foods are inherently unhealthy To improve public health, we need education about the core problem — the overabundance of processed food in our diet — plus implementation of healthier eating, both on a personal level and a societal level, which will require societal intervention in the form of legislation or litigation Food companies can make money selling real food. The primary hindrance is the subsidizing of junk food ingredients (sugar, corn, wheat and soy) Dr. ...

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation -      Well I heard people complaining last month or so about the ground being dry and I think after this weekend, that problem is over. We should have lots of May flowers after all these April Showers and the moisture should last us a while. It seems we always get at least one or two big rains during the Spring and Saturday's rain was one of those big ones.

  Analysis by  Dr. Joseph Mercol a  STORY AT-A-GLANCE While SARS-CoV-2 is a rampant virus that can cause severe problems in vulnerable individuals, the real pandemic — the underlying cause that makes people susceptible to complications from the infection in the first place — is poor metabolic health Aside from old age, obesity has been identified as one of the primary risk factors for being hospitalized with COVID-19 — doubling the risk of hospitalization in patients under the age of 60 in one study One hypothesis for why obesity is worsening COVID-19 has to do with the fact that obesity causes chronic inflammation. Having more proinflammatory cytokines in circulation increases your risk of experiencing a cytokine storm Insulin resistance is another top risk factor for COVID-19 that worsens outcomes and increases your risk of death There are five primary parameters of metabolic health: waist circumference, insulin sensitivity, blood pressure, and triglyceride and HDL leve...

  Analysis by  Dr. Joseph Mercola STORY AT-A-GLANCE August 28, 2020, the Children’s Health Defense, led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., launched a European branch of the organization Totalitarian nations have always used the power of fear to make citizens comply with authoritarian rule. Without fail, it’s been shown that all you have to do to engineer compliance, no matter how horrific the ramifications, is to tell people they have something to fear, and claim they will be safe if they follow you Today, we also have something no previous tyrant has had, namely the technology to track, trace, control and manipulate individuals wherever they live. Most are surrounded by electronics and wireless devices that harvest every imaginable data point about their personal life Digital currency will complete the net of tyranny. Once all cash economies have been abolished, they have absolute control over us because they will be able to tax every transaction and ensure compliance through the thre...
