"Heavy metal toxicity—from metals such as mercury, aluminum, copper, cadmium, nickel, arsenic, and lead—represents one of the greatest threats to our health and well-being." ~ Anthony William, author of Medical Medium: Secrets Behind Chronic and Mystery Illness and How to Finally Heal

Every person has been exposed to heavy metals throughout their lives, often on a daily basis, thus toxicity due to accumulation of heavy metals in the body has become a very common.

These accumulated metals that are burrowed deep inside the body's tissues and pose a significant threat to your health. Their presence puts immense stress on the human body, slowly poisoning the body, damaging the body's organs, and weakening the immune support system.

California delays labeling cans lined with BPA as it would be too scary for consumers

To tell or not to tell. That is the dilemma and heated debate which is occurring in California over Bisphenol A (BPA) in some of the canned food products sold at grocery stores. The regulators are concerned that wording on the label is too scary. They claim to be worried that poor customers won't buy canned food anymore.

Warnings are supposed to be on food product labels and/or posted on retailers shelves by May of 2016, but California is delaying the labeling law and is making other, less alarming, plans to inform consumers of the presence of BPA.

Comment: What's scarier -- label on a can or the health effecs of BPA?

5 conventional cancer myths get debunked

According to the conventional wisdom of mainstream medicine, the world's leading health practitioners in alternative, complementary and integrative medicine have it all wrong and are misinforming millions in practice and on the internet with a barrage of myths and misconceptions they claim are causing more harm to cancer patients. Could this initiative to sway opinion by leading cancer authorities possibly, just possibly, be related to the revolution that is happening around the world--highlighting the dangers and ineffectiveness of toxic chemotherapy and radiation, bringing cancer cures such as cannabis to the forefront, or the emerging mass markets now creating awareness on the reality of our food and the consequences of the cancer industry itself?

14-year-old Arizona student dies suddenly from mystery flu-like illness

Chase White was a freshman at Desert Vista High School in Ahwahtukee. He was involved in football, student council and was a camp counselor. He died suddenly on Friday after battling flu-like symptoms since January.

"From the age of 8 years old, he planned his whole career out, what college he wanted to go to, where he wanted to live," said Antone White, Chase White's father.

Chase White's parents told us he started feeling nauseous and fatigued about three months ago. He missed nearly two weeks of school in the first academic quarter. Doctors tested his blood and urine, but nobody knew what was going on.

"He had flu-like symptoms. nausea, lethargic, no energy, occasionally he'd be throwing up, occasionally he'd have a fever," Chase White's mother, Carolynn White, said.

Then, last week, it got worse.

Chase White's parents said they went to check on him Friday morning and found him unresponsive. He was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced brain dead. Now, his family is planning his memorial service, still without answers as to what happened to their son.

"We've seen doctors, taken blood tests; we've seen several doctors over and over and they could not find anything," Antone White said.

Antone White said they should get autopsy results back within two weeks to two months. They said they are touched at the outpouring of support.

"That's what's getting us through this, it's just a blessing to see how Chase affected so many different people's lives," Antone White said.

Researchers link air pollution to premature births

In a first of its kind analysis, the New York University School of Medicine has linked 16,000 premature births to air pollution, resulting in costs overrunning $4 billion a year for medical treatment.

Researchers noted that air pollution is known to increase toxic chemicals in the blood and cause immune system stress, which can weaken the placenta surrounding the fetus and lead to premature birth. There are over 3.9 million live births in the contiguous US states every year, and of those, 11.4 percent are born premature. Pregnancy normally last about 40 weeks while premature babies are born before 37 weeks.

"Air pollution comes with a tremendous cost, not only in terms of human life, but also in terms of the associated economic burden to society," said lead study author Dr. Leonardo Trasande, an environmental health researcher at New York University School of Medicine in New York City, in a released statement. The study was published online in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives.

Study Finds Monsanto's Glyphosate in 100% of California Wines Tested — Even the Organic Ones

Biochemical giant Monsanto has found itself under increased scrutiny after the World Health Organization recently announced that glyphosate is likely carcinogenic to humans.

Also, in the US, California recently labelled Monsanto's Roundup — as known to cause cancer. Under the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm are required to be listed and published by the state.

The slew of studies showing the adverse health effects of Roundup on laboratory animals as well as humans are overwhelmingly ominous which makes news of the chemical being found in high quantities in beer that much more worrisome.

Intestinal bacteria's influence on the brain can decrease the severity of stroke

Immune cells (green) assemble in the outer coverings of a mouse's brain, called the meninges, protecting it from a stroke's full force. Gut bacteria modified the immune' cells behavior to elicit that protective response.

Certain types of bacteria in the gut can leverage the immune system to decrease the severity of stroke, according to new research from Weill Cornell Medicine. This finding can help mitigate stroke -- which is the second leading cause of death worldwide.

In the study, published March 28 in Nature Medicine, mice received a combination of antibiotics. Two weeks later, the researcher team -- which included collaborators at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center -- induced the most common type of stroke, called ischemic stroke, in which an obstructed blood vessel prevents blood from reaching the brain. Mice treated with antibiotics experienced a stroke that was about 60 percent smaller than rodents that did not receive the medication. The microbial environment in the gut directed the immune cells there to protect the brain, the investigators said, shielding it from the stroke's full force.

"Our experiment shows a new relationship between the brain and the intestine," said Dr. Josef Anrather, the Finbar and Marianne Kenny Research Scholar in Neurology and an associate professor of neuroscience in the Feil Family Brain and Mind Research Institute at Weill Cornell Medicine. "The intestinal microbiota shape stroke outcome, which will impact how the medical community views stroke and defines stroke risk."

How your microbiome controls your health

Your body is a complex ecosystem made up of more than 100 trillion microbes that must be properly balanced and cared for if you are to be healthy. The human microbiome varies from person to person based on factors such as diet, health history, geographic location, and even ancestry. Illness results when our microbiomes become imbalanced as the organisms perform a multitude of functions in key biological systems, from supplying critical vitamins to fighting pathogens, modulating weight and metabolism. This army of organisms makes up 70 percent of your immune system, talking directly to your body's natural killer T-cells so that they discern friendly bacteria from dangerous invaders. Your microbiome also helps control how your genes express themselves. So by optimizing your native flora, you are actually controlling your genes.

Heart disease is a gut-immune-hormone disease

The root of disease almost always begins in the gastrointestinal tract, with problems compounding in the immune and endocrine (hormone) systems, which in turn stress the heart. Undetected viruses and other antigens can prey on the cardiovascular system as well.

HMO hitmen profit off of heroin addiction

"Susie is dead."

I still remember the text message on that fateful morning.

"Susie is a 24-years-old, hard-working, good-looking girl without an enemy in the world. She is the type of person who naturally connects to everyone and genuinely cares about others. How could she be dead?

"She died from a heroin overdose."

I heard these words and it literally floored me. We hear the figurative expression of being brought to your knees - well this is where it comes from. It literally occurs when you cannot physically stand and the pain and anguish is so unbearable that you involuntarily sink closer to the earth.

Who does heroin? That was my instinctive reaction.

Kellog's and ConAgra join the GMO labeling brigade

Food giants ConAgra Foods and Kellogg's have announced that they will begin voluntarily labeling their products which contain Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs).

ConAgra and Kellogg's will soon begin labeling their food products which contain Genetically Modified or Engineered Organisms. The announcement comes in response to Vermont's recently passed GMO labeling law, which goes into effect in July 2016. In a statement provided to Agri-Pulse, Kellogg North America President Paul Norman said some of the company's products would be labeled "Produced with Genetic Engineering" as soon as mid-April. Norman said the labels will appear nationwide "because a special label for Vermont would be costly for us and our consumers."

"We stand behind the health and safety of all of our products, including those with genetically modified ingredients, and believe consumers should be informed as to what's in their food,"ConAgra Foods said in a statement. ConAgra agreed with Kellogg, stating that state-by-state labels would be costly and complicated. The company also called on Congress to pass a "national solution as quickly as possible."

Comment: It's fishy that all of these companies, after pushing so hard against GMO labeling, are all of a sudden caving in? What caused the change of heart and is there more to this than meets the eye?

'Big Food' companies plan to label GMOs - but is there more to the story?

How healthcare was transformed to 'sick care' focused on vaccines and drugs

Our health care system is now based on a pharmaceutical model of care with a strong emphasis on vaccinations. In the 1800s, homeopathic and nutritional health care approaches successfully treated many people who suffered during disease epidemics. Orthodox medical treatments were dangerous and comparatively less successful in treating patients.

Great divides existed between orthodox and homeopathic physicians. The attempt to suppress homeopathic medicine was accelerated in 1910 with the Flexner Report, influenced by the funding by John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie. In effect, healthcare in the US was bought out and successful homeopathic physicians disallowed from further practice. This important change led to safe, inexpensive treatments being forced to the fringe of mainstream medicine, a practice which remains in effect today.

Understanding healthcare's past can assist in better comprehending the obstacles and difficulties faced in today's very slanted pharmaceutical and vaccine-based model of healthcare.
