A lectin-free or low-lectin meal plan has provided many people with relief from digestive symptoms and other disorders. But, what the heck are lectins, and who should avoid or limit them?   Let’s take a look at the topic of lectins in more detail to find out if you would benefit from a low-lectin diet.

One important thing to remember is that following a lectin-free diet has preliminary, but not conclusive research to support its be...

It’s not just a 3rd world problem. Parasites and parasitic infections are common in humans, affecting millions of people worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that about 25% of the global population has an intestinal parasite infection, and in tropical and subtropical areas with limited access to sanitation and clean water, that number can be as high as 50%. In the United States, the CDC says that over 60 million...

Mushroom steak, mushroom coffee, mushroom supplements . . . You can’t walk more than a few aisles in the grocery store these days without running into some kind of new mushroom product. Fresh white button mushrooms are increasingly joined by specialty varieties like lion’s mane, maitake or oyster mushrooms. There’s sparkling cordyceps tea and chaga coffee boasting a range of health benefits, mushroom chips and even chocolate bars i...

For most, seeing liver on your plate imparts immediate disinterest. But the liver is one of the most interesting organs of the human body. This amazing organ weighs about 3 pounds and is the second largest organ in the body, second only to skin (yes your skin is actually an organ!). The liver is also the only organ in the body that can actually regenerate itself. This is good news because the liver takes a beating every single day,...

Week 164 - REFINED FOODS

The secret is out. It is now in the ‘mainstream media’. NPR has published an article highlighting the fact that the food we eat is slowly killing us.

Beauty products — everything from shampoo to makeup to cologne — can help you feel on top of your game. They can also cause irritated skin or an allergic reaction. A dermatology study published in 2010 found that more than a third of over 900 study participants had at least one allergic reaction to cosmetic ingredients. 

Problems can range from simple rashes to full-blown allergic reactions. Symptoms can start right after you use s...

Hormones are chemicals in your body that are produced by the endocrine glands. Hormones move through your bloodstream to reach the organs and tissues in your body, and regulate functions like:

1. Appetite and metabolism
2. Sleep cycles
3. Heart rate
4. Sexual and reproductive functions
5. Overall growth and development
6. Mood and stress levels
7. Body temperature

A hormonal imbalance occurs when your body produce...

How much do you know about Dementia or Alzheimers Disease? Chances are you know more than a few folks that have been affected by it! The numbers of new diagnoses are skyrocketing and there’s a reason for that!

Increasing age is strongly associated with the development of dementia, particularly from dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and other neurodegenerative causes. Dementia is characterized by significant cogn...

"If a fish tank is dirty, you clean the tank. You don’t drug the fish."

Calley Means, founder of health tech firm TrueMed, during the Feb. 2 episode of “The Tucker Carlson Encounter” cited numerous reported side effects — including gastrointestinal issues and suicidal thoughts — of the popular weight-loss drug.

Means, co-author of the book, “Good Energy: The S...

Perfect Poo

By Andi Hale

Everybody poops, but nobody really talks about it. But while putting a lid on all potty talk may keep conversations civilized, it may mean we’re missing out on valuable clues to our health.

Your poop can tell you if you’re eating enough fiber and drinking enough water, or if your digestive system is processing food too slowly or too quickly. Also, lasting changes in your bowel habits or the appearance of yo...

Over 80% of people with prediabetes don’t know they have it because they don’t get tested regularly.

Diabetes is a disease in which blood glucose, or sugar, levels are too high. More than nine in 10 cases are type 2 or “adult-onset” diabetes, the kind linked to excess body weight and physical inactivity.

Insulin resistance is when cells in your muscles, fat, and liver can’t use the insulin it makes. As a result, the pancreas produc...

Antidepressants work by changing the balance of certain neurotransmitters in your brain, but which ones they affect and how they affect them varies from one antidepressant to another — and there are many different classes of antidepressants.

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, are indeed the most common type of antidepressant prescribed in the United States, and they have been ranked number one for se...

Milk does a body good, right?

Humans have been drinking animal milk for thousands of years and never had any problems. And yet these days, the natural milk right from the cow (or goat, etc.) is dangerous.

The reason milk has been deemed deadly is because of commercialization. In the big cities in the 1800’s, dairy cows would be fed the chaff of the grain used in alcohol production next door. This feed was lacking in any nutrients, ...

Artificial sweeteners can sound like a dream come true. All that sweet taste but no actual sugar and no (or very few) calories sounds great!

In our Glucose Overload article we reported that most American consumers are so addicted to sugar that they will deny their addictions in the same way that a crack or heroin addict might. Sugar is, essentially, a legalized recreational drug that’s socially acceptable to consume. And yet, just ...
