Environmental Toxins Affect Later Generations
submitted by: admin on 09/21/2013
A study on animals published in the March issue of the Public Library of Science showed that many environmental toxins can have negative effects for three generations! The DNA sequence is unaffected but these compounds change the way genes turn on and off. Some of the toxins involved include pesticides such as DEET and permethrin, fungicides, jet fuel,...
Gut Bacteria May Protect Against Stroke
submitted by: admin on 09/22/2013
Altered gut microbiota is associated with heart attacks and strokes.

submitted by: admin on 09/22/2013
The January 6, 2013 issue of the journal, GUT, reported that in a 12 year study of 10,000 people, the presence of a very virulent strain of H. pylori protected against stroke and lung cancer. We know that H. pylori causes gastric ulcers and carcinoma but it remains ironic that this versatile microbe seems to have protective effects against these disorders.

Inflammation Can Cause Depression
submitted by: admin on 02/16/2015
An article in Life Extension in September of 2012 suggested the anti-inflammatory drugs might be the answer to managing depression. This idiotic suggestion seems like an ad from Big Pharma. When are we going to look for the underlying cause for disease rather than just treating its symptoms? There is little doubt that depressed people have high levels...
Low HDL Cholesterol Does Not Cause Heart Attacks
submitted by: admin on 02/19/2015
Even though there is abundant evidence that people with low protective HDL cholesterol are at risk for heart attacks, a large new study refutes this myth. People with high HDL in this study of 70,000 people had a much lower incidence of heart attacks, but people with a genetic defect in producing HDL and had a low level in this study did not have an...

submitted by: admin on 10/16/2013
Is AIDS caused by HIV? There is a longstanding debate between scientists and clinicians about the cause of HIV/AIDS that relates to what causes it. HIV is a retrovirus; none have ever been shown to cause disease in humans. All known viral disease have demonstrable viral particles that can be isolated and shown to infect other humans. This has never been done...

It...

What Test Can Predict Mortality 10-15 Years Early
submitted by: admin on 01/07/2015
In a study out of Johns Hopkins University that was published in the December 2014 issue of the Journal of Molecular Biology, researchers found that the amount of mitochondrial DNA found in blood directly correlated with frailty and longevity 10-15 years before symptoms appeared. Patients were followed over 10-20 years looking at the amount of mitochondrial DNA...
