I recently saw a headline that said sugar was “the biggest dietary enemy we face.” But the truth is…humans evolved to eat sweet foods. It’s how our ancestors knew a food growing in the wild was safe to eat and good for us. In fact, there are no naturally sweet foods that are harmful to your health… Nature wouldn’t let …
Every day, you’re being robbed of the lifesaving nutrients you need. Big Agra’s focus is on reaping the maximum number of crops at the cheapest cost. Nutrition has nothing to do with it. The U.S. Congress knew there was a problem back in 1936. That’s when a group of doctors introduced Document No. 264 to the floor of the United …
There’s a 95% chance you have at least one risk factor for heart disease.1 But your body has a built-in defense system that can protect you… I’m talking about nitric oxide. This essential signaling molecule is produced naturally by cells in your blood vessels. Nitric oxide (NO) is the miracle compound that allows your cardiovascular system to “breathe easy.” It …
If you’re like most people, you probably don’t connect vitamin C with your heart… but this overlooked nutrient is essential for optimal heart health. For decades, this vitamin has been deemed unnecessary and ineffective. But you can’t live without it. And it’s one of the reasons you don’t see heart disease in animals as much as you do in people. …
If you’ve been doing everything right – cutting carbs, ditching starches, hitting the gym – but you’re still struggling to trim those stubborn pounds…a new study may explain why. As it turns out, it isn’t just the food you’re eating. It’s the packaging the food comes in. According to a Norwegian research team, the contaminants in this packaging could be the biggest …
You already know how crucial CoQ10 is for your heart. But now a recent study makes it clear you should also be taking it for the health of your brain and eyes – two of the most energy-hungry organs in your body. Researchers at the Medical Informatics Center at Peking University revealed a powerful connection between vision loss and dementia.1 …
You’d never swallow a spoonful of paint. But every time you eat bottled ranch or blue cheese dressing — not to mention skim milk, mayonnaise, or breath mints — you might as well be licking a paintbrush. Consider this: Food manufacturers add a dangerous compound called titanium dioxide to a lot of your favorite foods. They do it to whiten and brighten …
Despite what your eye doctor may tell you, vision loss doesn’t have to be an inevitable part of getting older. And a new 20-year study backs up what I’ve been telling my patients for years… Decades of eating a typical carb-heavy Western diet is what causes visual impairment – and even blindness – later in life. The study, published in …
You and I should be able to trust the FDA. After all, it’s their responsibility to protect the American public by ensuring the safety of our food. Yet time and time again, the agency chooses to put Big Agra’s profits ahead of your health. But after years of petitions demanding that the FDA ban phthalates in food, a lawsuit may …
Eight essential B vitamins make up the building blocks of a healthy body. B complex vitamins help you make energy from your food, improve brain function, prevent memory loss, and increase cell metabolism. They prevent infections, lower homocysteine levels to prevent heart disease – and boost your immune defenses. And that’s more important now than ever. You see, B vitamins …
Do you give a lot of thought to the health of your liver? If you don’t, maybe it’s time you do. In the near future, fatty liver disease is projected to become the major reason for liver transplants…beating out alcoholic cirrhosis, cancer, and hepatitis. A huge part of the problem is artificial sweeteners. Ironically, a sugar substitute is also part …
It used to be that the most difficult choice you made regarding milk was whether it was delivered fresh to your house or you bought it at your local shop. Today when you walk down the dairy aisle of the grocery store, the number of products that are called milk is mind-boggling. These milk substitutes include soy, oat, almond, rice, …
If you are over 50 – and you’re not already supplementing with vitamin D – here’s one more reason why you should… A recent report found that this simple vitamin can lower your risk of being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease (AI) by almost 25%.1 That’s huge – especially when you consider that today one in 12 Americans has an …
I was doing an Internet search when I read this: “Leaky gut syndrome is a medical mystery.” A further search on medical websites called it a “gray area” and “the disease your doctor can’t diagnose.” But there’s nothing gray or mysterious about it. A leaky gut is a nutrition problem, and it’s being ignored by doctors who know next to …
I get a lot of pushback from vegetarians when I tell them that eating meat is essential to good health. But I realize it’s not their fault. For decades, the public has been force-fed a diet of misinformation and intentional deception from Big Agra, mainstream doctors, and the media. Misinformation like red meat causes diabetes and cancer… eggs cause heart …
Losing weight is hard enough without your doctor constantly warning you about the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. It’s a fact that the typical American diet – with its overload of processed sugars and carbohydrates – causes insulin resistance and diabetes. But now, new research proves what I’ve been telling patients for years… Excess fat itself isn’t necessarily a …
In a groundbreaking new study, Swiss researchers discovered that your immune system could only target and destroy cancer cells in the presence of a critical mineral.1 This breakthrough report highlights what I’ve been telling my patients for years… Your good health depends on the nutrients you put in your body. And in this case, the miracle nutrient is magnesium. Earlier …
For decades, you’ve been given bad advice about how to get rid of stubborn belly fat… Most fitness “gurus” will tell you to do more cardio so you can enter your “fat-burning zone.” But that’s the last place you want to be… Burning fat while exercising signals to your body that it needs fat. Then it trains your body to make …
