Hot Peppers for Pain, Infection, and Heart Health

[…]we’ve known it kills prostate cancer cells for about a decade, but recently researchers found that the capsaicin molecule binds to the surface of cancer cells and affects the membrane that surrounds and protects it. The research is ongoing and promising, which is good because while you could just eat three to eight habanero peppers three times a week, there are some who couldn’t stomach that. Beyond protecting food from pathogens, and the potential help in the fight against cancer, capsaicin has still other positive effects on the body: its used to treat chronic pain, like arthritis, cluster headaches, triggers the production of endorphins […]

USA TODAY: Tufts University Removes Sackler Name Over family’s Role in Opioid Epidemic

[…]with Purdue Pharma and the Sacklers — whose gifts to the university date back to the 1980s) found no wrongdoing by the university or personnel, nor violations of policy. The review also said it found: “…no evidence of an arrangement by which Purdue or the Sacklers agreed to fund programs or research in exchange for certain outcomes or curriculum.”1 The university said it is taking several steps to “ensure” policies reflect best practices concerning academic research. In response to Tufts’ decision, Jillian Sackler, the widow of Arthur Sackler, said her late husband had “nothing to do with OxyContin,”1 nor were […]

Maple syrup- the new superfood?

[…]further, the compounds that precent the oxidation and aging of a body’s cells aren’t found in other natural sweeteners like maple syrup. Dr. Navindra Seeram, who led the research at the University of Rhode Island, explained the science behind his team’s findings, saying: ‘We found a wide variety of polyphenols in maple syrup. We discovered that the polyphenols in maple syrup inhibit enzymes that are involved in the conversion of carbohydrate to sugar. In fact, in preliminary studies, maple syrup had a greater enzyme-inhibiting effect compared to several other healthy plant foods such as berries.’ Does that mean you should cover […]

Deadly Zika Virus Available For Sale Online, Courtesy of the Rockefeller Foundation

[…]virus, known as Zika, was discovered by scientists in 1947. A captive monkey at the Rockefeller Foundation was found to be carrying the disease. Because Zika wasn’t found in the wild, this led some to believe that the virus was perhaps the result of a mistake during experimentation. Since then, there have been few cases of Zika, that is, until recently; outbreaks of Zika have been on the rise, especially in South America and specifically Brazil. You’ll recall that the recent rise of microcephaly in Brazil has parents worried, doctors stumped and the WHO scrambling to figure out what’s going on. The […]

How pomegranate puts chemo & radiation to shame

[…]of both individual breast cancer stem cells, and clumps of them known as mammospheres. The study found that, “PE inhibited mammosphere formation in two different cell lines, neoplastic mammary epithelial HMLER and breast cancer Hs578T. In addition, mammosphere-derived cells from PE treatment groups showed reduced mammosphere formation for at least two serial passages.” Additionally, the reserachers found that pomegranate extract was able to promote breast cancer stem cells differentiation (an indication of its chemopreventive properties), as well as preventing epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a key program in generating CSCs and maintaining their characteristics. The researchers concluded from these findings that, “The […]

alone with yourself: floating

[…]or the sides of the tank with my toes, gently pushing me into position again. After a while I found a comfortable position (with my arms laid backwards) and the water was still enough so I didn’t make any contact with anything anymore. I tried to close my eyes and concentrate on nothing. That didn’t work. When you concentrate on nothing, you concentrate on something. So I decided to open my eyes – which makes no difference as it is pitch black anyways – and just concentrate on my breathing, this being a viable meditation-technique, and just „float into space“.

CBS NEWS: Pancreatic Cancer Risk Increases With Every 2 Strips Of Bacon You Eat

[…]looked for a link between eating red and processed meats and cancer. During the study, the team found that the raised risk was tied to every 50 grams of processed meat consumed in a day. That means, if you eat 150 grams of processed meat a day -which is like three sausages or six strips of bacon – your pancreatic cancer risk shoots up 57 percent. Yikes. That’s intense. However, when compared with red meat (which has been linked to stomach and esophageal cancers) the evidence was inconclusive. Men who ate 120 grams of red meat per day saw their pancreatic cancer risk increase […]

USA Today: High levels of arsenic in bottled water sold at Whole Foods, Target, Walmart, study says

[…]popular bottled water brands. Center for Environmental Health, a California nonprofit, recently found that two bottled water brands contain high levels of arsenic. The water levels test higher than the levels in tap water, which violates California state guidelines. The law states that high arsenic levels can cause cancer and reproductive damage, as well as hormone disruption and organ damage, most notably in children. Because the bottled water violates the state levels, it must be labeled with a warning.

Is Eating Raw Eggs Safe and Healthy?

[…]and undercooked eggs may contain Salmonella, a type of harmful bacteria. This bacteria can be found on egg shells but also inside eggs. Consuming contaminated eggs can cause food poisoning. Symptoms of food poisoning include stomach cramps, diarrhea, nausea, fever and headache. These symptoms usually appear 6 to 48 hours after eating and may last 3 to 7 days. Fortunately, the risk of an egg being contaminated is very low. One study found only 1 of every 30,000 eggs produced in the US is contaminated. However, from the 1970s through the 1990s, contaminated egg shells were the most common source […]

No Sex Required: Body Cells Transfer Genetic Info Directly Into Sperm Cells, Amazing Study Finds

[…]and remain stored there.  The authors of the study pointed out that RNA of this kind has been found in mouse models to behave as a “transgenerational determinant of inheritable epigenetic variations and that spermatozoal RNA can carry and deliver information that cause phenotypic variations in the progeny.” The researchers concluded that their study’s findings strongly suggest, “exosomes are the carriers of a flow of information from somatic cells to gametes,” and that their “results indicate that somatic RNA is transferred to sperm cells, which can, therefore, act as the final recipients of somatic cell-derived information.” RELATED ARTICLE: This Vitamin […]

[…]with curative intent and decreased with age for patients receiving palliative SACT. Researchers found there were several factors which affected the risk of early mortality in breast and lung cancer patients in England and that some groups were at an even higher risk of death in the first 30 days- including older people and those in poorer health. More from Truth Kings: “The alarming mortality rate found in hospitals across England lends a great deal of credence to the idea that chemotherapy may be doing more harm than good.” At the risk of sounding rude, duh! It’s poison. It’s obtuse, insanity to […]

Apple Cider Vinegar Helps Blood Sugar & Body Fat

[…]ACV was given to healthy adults, pre-diabetics, and people with type 2 diabetes. What researchers found was that everyone had better blood sugar numbers when they drank less than an ounce of apple cider vinegar with a high-carb meal, compared to when they the had the same meal and drank a placebo. Also, pre-diabetics saw blood sugar levels improve with vinegar by nearly half and those who already had diabetes, cut their blood glucose concentrations by 25%.
