$10 Billion PFAS Payout Just the Tip of the Iceberg
June 22, 2023,1 the American multinational conglomerate, 3M, agreed to pay $10.3 billion to at least 300 communities2 in a multidistrict litigation (MDL) to clean up “forever chemicals” in the water supplies. Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as “forever chemicals” because they don’t break down easily in the environment and they bioaccumulate in people and wildlife. In the human body, PFAS have half-lives of two to five years.3 These widely used chemicals have been added to industry and consumer...

Censorship is ramping up at a rapid clip, and much of it is clearly directed by the U.S. federal government, despite a federal judge’s order prohibiting federal agencies and officials from communicating with social media companies about content moderation.1 In recent days, several news stories have highlighted governments’ and Big Tech’s intent to increase censorship. There’s even a rumor that Google will ban independent media from its search results altogether.2 I’ve not been able to confirm this, but considering everything else going on,...

For the better part of three centuries, the U.S. has been a meat and potato nation. This is slowly changing as more people are choosing authentic Middle Eastern, Indian or Thai cuisine. Cardamom is a spice recognized as important in ancient cooking that originated in tropical parts of India, Nepal, South Asia and the Middle East. Cardamom is known as one of the most expensive spices in the world,1 costing roughly $30 a pound, slightly less than vanilla, which can cost $50, and significantly less than saffron, which can command up to $5,000...

Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published December 17, 2018. Aside from being vital pollinators, bees produce a number of products that benefit human health. Honey1 is an obvious one, but there are others as well, such as royal jelly, a nutritious substance secreted by nurse bees as exclusive nourishment for the queen of the hive. Research2,3,4 by Stanford University scientists found royalactin (also known as major royal jelly protein 1, or MRJP1), a protein found in royal jelly responsible for the queen’s...

According to news reports, new COVID-19 variants are on the rise and are being closely monitored for pandemic spread. In the U.S., EG.5, nicknamed Eris, has been declared a “variant of interest” (VOI), which means it is being monitored for mutations that might make it more hazardous.1 Australian news are highlighting the BA.2.86 variant, nicknamed Pirola,2 while Irish news are warning about an Omicron offshoot dubbed “the real deal” by World Health Organization officials3,4 — just in case you decided that COVID was no...

Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published October 2, 2016. If you’re not optimally healthy, could Candida be at fault? In this interview, the late British osteopath and naturopath, Dr. Leon Chaitow, author of “Candida Albicans: Natural Remedies for Yeast Infection,” discusses its dangers — and more importantly, how to address this exceedingly common infection. Trained in Great Britain, Chaitow had a medical practice in the U.K. for about 30 years before moving to Greece, where he resided and...

In the featured video, I interview Beth Lambert, who in 2009 founded Epidemic Answers, a research organization focused on helping children with autism and other chronic diseases. When I graduated medical school, the incidence of autism was 1 in 10,000. For the first decade of my medical practice, I didn’t have a single autistic patient. By the mid- to late-1990s, I was treating hundreds of autistic children in my practice, and since then, autism has reached truly epidemic proportions. In her 2010 book, “A Compromised Generation:...
read moreWhat Really Happened in Maui?
One of my main goals with this platform has been to help and support people who do not have the voice be heard (e.g., the forgotten victims of medicine). Since the Maui Wildfires started, I have received a lot of requests over email from readers in Hawaii to discuss what is happening there, so I’ve spent the last week trying to get a clear idea of that and what I can share which will be the most helpful to the people in Maui. Video Reports There have been a lot of videos going around describing differing narratives over what happened in Maui....

In the U.S., 66.5% of bankruptcies are due to medical bills, which amounts to 530,000 medical bankruptcies each year.1 Among those who file bankruptcy due to medical expenses, 72% have health insurance,2,3 highlighting the outrageous state of health care in America. If you end up in the hospital, you know you’re going to receive a bill — but you don’t typically know how much that bill will be. It’s no wonder that two-thirds of adults worry about being able to afford surprise medical bills like these.4,5 In fact, in a survey of public...
read moreAre You Excited to Drink Treated Toilet Water?
This story is about humiliation sold to the people as “fighting climate change.” To be specific, it’s about forcing the people to explicitly and inevitably use processed toilet water for drinking and other household use. Yes, implicitly, we have all been ingesting “mystery” ingredients in our drinking water, in our air and food for years. Yes, industrial companies have been dumping their waste into rivers for God knows how long (and before the Clean Water Act of 1972, it was not even considered “bad”). But right now they are trying to make...

The demand for medications promising easy weight loss has skyrocketed, with prescriptions rising 2,082% from 2019 to 2022.1 Semaglutide, more popularly known as Ozempic, is leading the pack, with the hashtag #Ozempic having received 1.2 billion views on TikTok2 as of July 2023 — to give just some indication of its popularity. Semaglutide is sold under the name Ozempic as a diabetes drug and, in a higher dose, under the name Wegovy as a weight loss drug. It touts weight loss of 14.9% among adults with obesity,3 but it comes at a steep price....
read moreTop Tips to Lower Your Blood Pressure
According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, nearly half of American adults have high blood pressure, currently defined as blood pressure consistently at or above 130/80 mm Hg.1 High blood pressure increases your risk for a number of serious health problems, including stroke, heart failure, sexual dysfunction, vision loss, heart attack, kidney disease and kidney failure.2 Four out of 5 adults with high blood pressure are outrageously recommended to take prescription medication as the first step to lowering it, and all are...
read moreHow Raw Milk Is Bridging a Gap Between Political Parties
It’s now legal to purchase raw milk in the state of Iowa, with caveats, making it the latest state to protect residents’ food freedom. The move came after Governor Kim Reynolds signed Senate File 315 into law,1 which allows farmers to sell unpasteurized milk directly to consumers as of July 1, 2023.2 Humans have been consuming “raw” milk, also known as fresh milk, for thousands of years.3 It’s the only kind of milk there was. But the ability to access raw milk has become restricted for Americans in many states, making it necessary...
read moreWhat’s in Those Vapes?
Many have been misled to believe that vaping is far healthier than cigarette smoking, but nothing could be further from the truth. As noted in one scientific review,1 e-cigs may be a safer option than conventional cigarettes, but they’re “not that safe.” Chemical analyses have found e-cigarette liquids, aerosols, cartridge, and the heating coils within the e-cig tank can contain many toxic ingredients, including:2,3,4 Antifreeze chemicals such as propylene glycol and diethylene glycol, the latter of which has been linked to...
read moreCaught Red-Handed, Stop Trusting These Science ‘Experts’
Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published October 3, 2018. I’ve written many articles highlighting the bias created by funding and the dangers of basing health decisions on industry-funded science. Independent, unbiased research is absolutely crucial for getting to the truth; without it science becomes little more than an extension of marketing, and hence useless. So, what’s happening at Cochrane right now is nothing short of tragic.1,2,3 Cochrane (an international network of scientists that promotes...
