Most detoxification herbs, including milk thistle, work by detoxing the liver and then dumping it into the bloodstream where it, unfortunately, often is reabsorbed again. Enter Schizandra.

A New Study Came Out, Which Found That Chemotherapy Causes Long-Term Immune System Damage, Significantly Reducing Levels Of Key Immune Cells In Patients For At Least 9 Months After Treatment. In addition we already know that chemo potentially alters DNA for life. Why auto-immune disease often follows in the waters of chemo therapy, if one is lucky to survive the chemo.

The salty ocean water is rich in trace minerals and has a molecular structure very similar to healthy human blood. It comes as no surprise that it has vast beneficial effects on our skin, which is our largest organ. Especially The Dead Sea bordering Israel has shown to be of immense medicinal healing value for psoriasis, eczema and skin disorders as such. This, mainly due to to the high concentration of magnesium which is essential when treating dry skin conditions.

New research reveals that ginger is a powerful anti-cancer medicine. This does not mean that ginger alone is enough though. Nobody gets cured by just eating ginger, make no mistake of that. However as part of a program, we need to understand how to utilize nature’s medicine cabinet.

There's a superbug called MERS spreading fast across Saudi Arabia and Northern Africa. Here's my emergency advice on what to do to keep safe from this antibiotic and vaccine resistant superbug.

How many times have we indirectly added to isolation through promoting an image of perfection via social media - disconnected from human touch, yet always posing, pretending.... covering all bridges between us, letting no one in to see who we truly are.

Every five years, the Department of Health and Human Services, along with the Department of Agriculture, issues "Dietary Guidelines for Americans". This Federal Publication Determines How We Will Be Nudged Into Eating From Marketing, Food Labeling And Most Doctor/Nutritionist's Office. Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee issues 2015 scientific report is groundbreaking in one way - it is taking cholesterol off the bad guys food list.

So, last year I fractured my right elbow in a mountain bike incident; too bad cause I have always wanted to pick up skateboarding. However, I can honestly say that this broken bone incident has put me off risking breaking anything else, which inevitably happens on a skateboard.

Chemotherapy is a chemical carpet-bombing used in conventional medicine that poisons the entire body. The theory is that because the tumor shrinks during chemo, the survival rate should increase.

Much of chemotherapy today is done at experiential level, meaning it is not evidence-based yet. Unless the tumor stem cells are removed or destroyed, the tumor often grows back.

When you take supplements you need them to also be actually ABSORBED to benefit from them. Unfortunately, it is not as simple as buying a mineral tablet, as many companies have not bothered looking into the bioavailability, nor how minerals compete for absorption. Minerals that compete for absorption should quite obviously NOT be taken at the same time, because you will not absorb them fully then. So what about zinc and magnesium - two crucial minerals for brain, muscle, hormone and male sexual health - should you take them together or apart to benefit from them?

Most detoxification herbs, including milk thistle, work by detoxing the liver and then dumping it into the bloodstream where it, unfortunately, often is reabsorbed again. Enter this secret superberry used in ancient China.
