A type 2 med side effect that will give you chills! September 12, 2018
If you’ve got diabetes, you know how it can rule your life. There are the constant finger pricks… the worry about low blood sugar or high blood sugar… and the nerve damage that can suddenly strike.

Pharma’s new ploy to get you doubling down on statins September 6, 2018
You would think that at this point, with millions of Americans taking statins and plenty of others being shot up with PCSK9 inhibitors (the latest cholesterol-lowering drugs), Big Pharma and the mainstream would finally be happy. But now that just about every customer they could grab is probably already spoken for with an Rx, the […]
Mom was right! Here’s why you should eat your broccoli August 31, 2018
If I told you that a compound called “13C” was found to prevent colon cancer, you would probably think I was talking about a promising billion-dollar drug under development. But while 13C has been studied by scientists all over the world, it’s about as far from Big Pharma’s laboratories as anything could possibly be. It […]

Is this toxic weed killer on your breakfast menu? August 28, 2018
The Monsanto name may soon disappear… but its toxic legacy keeps marching on. The latest place the company’s cancer-causing weed killer Roundup has turned up is in breakfast cereals and other products made from what should be “healthy” oats — the kind your kids and grandkids eat all the time — made by big names […]
Good news, men: Docs can stop doing ‘that thing’ August 22, 2018
Let’s face it — it’s the most awkward part of your physical. You already know what I’m talking about, right? You turn around… you hear the rubber glove go on with a SNAP… and out of the corner of your eye, you see the doc reach into his drawer. No, he’s not getting a lollipop… […]
For the sake of your liver, ditch these meds now August 21, 2018
The study is new… but the sobering facts aren’t. Recent research out of several UK universities, along with Baylor College of Medicine in Texas, has found a “consistent association” between taking acid-suppressing PPI drugs and developing liver cancer. This finding comes at the same time the CDC is reporting that the overall death rate for […]
Don’t bother brushing without fluoride? Seriously? August 20, 2018
I don’t know of any poison that we’re encouraged to put inside our mouths and spread around our teeth and gums… let alone drink… except one. Somehow, fluoride has become the singular “skull and crossbones” substance that we’re constantly being told is good for us. But if you’ve ever looked closely at the label of […]
Latest health hype for soy ignores some ugly truths August 16, 2018
We’ve all been given the hard sell on the so-called health benefits of soy for quite a while now. First, we were told that it would protect your heart. That notion was further endorsed by the FDA, which almost two decades ago allowed food manufacturers to print right on the packaging that eating their soy […]
This toxic ghost may soon be brought back to life August 14, 2018
It’s hard to believe in this day and age that here in America, you could potentially encounter the mineral fiber asbestos in anything that isn’t a relic from a bygone era. But unlike 60 other countries that have banned this well-known cancer-causing substance outright, the U.S. has not. Our EPA continues to look the other […]
FDA cosmetic-safety survey should put consumers on alert August 13, 2018
Dear Reader, In 1938, Superman made his first appearance in comic books… gas cost 10 cents a gallon… and the average yearly wage was $1,730! It was also the year that President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed into law what’s known as the “Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.” And it was probably the last time that […]
