AVOID: Top 3 Foods of Inflammation & Heart Disease

Let your slurry sit at body temperature for a few hours. It will harden into a perfect rubbery superglue. These three foods accumulate in your body as sticky mucus that makes you old and tired. THIS is the root of inflammation and auto-immune disease ...

How can I protect myself from unhealthy ingredients not even listed on the label? Oh dear! The word "Natural" has no meaning.

What Favorite Foods Convert to SUGAR in Your Blood?
Shall we do some MYTH BUSTING? We all know sugar is BAD. And whole foods are GOOD. Yep, we've got that. But WHY do people eating a whole food diet per the government food pyramid, still end up with high cholesterol and heart disease? Maybe it's not exactly BAD foods vs. GOOD foods.

Diabetes, Obesity, Heart Disease & Uric Acid Caused by Fructose?

Vegetable Oils: Good, Bad and Deadly
Have you ever wondered what's at the root of our world cancer epidemic? Like all disease, there are many contributing factors. However, the elephant in the room I'm highlighting today is our modern vegetable oils. Do you remember before the 1950’s, butter and lard were the go-to cooking fats in America. Our human diet has changed radically in the past 100 years, not always for the best. Now, GMO vegetable oils are everywhere, in many prepared foods, and so cheap that ...

High-Sugar Forbidden Fruits, Which Ones Make You Fat?
What's the worst food for weight gain? Sugary fruit! Surprising new studies show high-fructose fruits are top culprits in weight gain. Due to a genetic mutation 40,000 years ago, the fructose you eat goes immediately to fat. To lose weight, skip these high-sugar fruits: Bananas, Grapes, Pineapples, Mangos, Oranges, Dried fruits, Raisins, Dates, Melons, Peaches, Sweet apples and juices. Instead eat tart low-sugar fruits: raspberries, grapefruit, lemons, limes, strawberries, and tart apples like Granny Smith, Fuji, and Pink Lady, which are lower in fructose sugar.

AVOID: The $100 Billion Ingredient Making Your Food Toxic
OK, I'll tell you what it is. This article is by Dr. Joseph Mercola, who always gets it right for our health.

Aluminum, Heavy Metal Toxicity, and Alzheimer’s?
When the Alzheimer’s Association of America says: “…few experts believe that everyday sources of aluminum pose any threat.", I REALLY want to believe them. But is it true? Not according to Dr. Chris Exley, PhD, of Keele University in UK, an expert on aluminum toxicity. Dr. Exley has been studying the impact of aluminum on the human body since 1984 and states: "There has been a strong link between human exposure to aluminum and Alzheimer’s disease for half a century ...

What’s Electro-Magnetic Hypersensitivity?

WIFI, Poor Sleep, and Dementia
Did you know that WiFi tells your brain that its DAYTIME? Yes. Many people cannot fall sleep with Wifi. Or they sleep poorly and don't know why. But when they turn off the Wifi before bed, immediately they enjoy refreshing deep sleep. Why? I suggest we just switch the Wifi OFF at night. Studies clearly show a medical link between Wifi, brain biorhythms, melatonin, poor sleep, and increased Alzheimer's risk. WiFi doesn’t cause immediate diagnosable illness. The damage happens slowly ...

Uh Oh! Coconut Sugar is 100% Sugar!
Terrible news! Coconut sugar is 100% sugar! You won't feel a glycemic rush, as coconut sugar is relatively low in glucose. But here's the rub: The rest of the sugar is fructose! It's 100% carbs! Just like HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup), fructose is a liver toxin that causes high cholesterol, obesity, and diabetes (Yup, our top epidemics). Fructose doesn't give you a glycemic jolt. Instead it quietly and insidiously fills your liver with bad lipid (fat) deposits and makes you want more sweets. Glycemic index can measure glucose, not fructose. It ...

Xylitol, NOT a low calorie sweetener!
By Jane Barthelemy. Is Xylitol a healthy sweetener? Touted as a safe sugar substitute for diabetics in snacks, chewing gum, and baking, Xylitol is NOT the low-calorie sweetener it's cracked up to be. Just look at the nutrition label and you'll see it's loaded with calories and carbs. I don't accept that stripping birch bark and thus killing the tree is sustainable or earth-friendly.
