Sugar may be the single worst food for your health.
It’s linked to virtually all the biggest killers that plague Americans: heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, Alzheimer’s… The list goes on and on.

The average American now consumes almost 17 teaspoons of it a day. That’s about 57 pounds a year.… Read More
It’s certainly no fun to look down and see a ring of blubber around your midsection. But belly fat is far more than a cosmetic issue.

Titanium dioxide is all over your supermarket.
It’s in chewing gum, candy, bread, doughnuts, yogurt, cake frosting, pastries, mayonnaise, coffee creamer…anything food manufacturers want to make look bright white.

Depression can be among the most difficult illnesses to treat.
The first-line medications are drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like Prozac, Zoloft, and Lexapro. They are supposed to lift mood by increasing levels of serotonin, the “feel-good” compound, in the brain.

And inflammation is the underlying cause of cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and many other deadly health conditions. A recent medical journal review called inflammation “the most significant cause of death in the world today.”[1]
Harvard University researchers go even further. They say inflammation may cause all disease. They call it the “unifying theory” of illness.… Read More
