The only thing Covid-19 test kits are good for is illegally collecting and surveilling human DNA
In 2020, human populations were thoroughly convinced that they could eradicate viruses from the universe by assuming everyone was sick and by avoiding human interaction. Lock downs, business restrictions, mask mandates and social distancing guidelines promised safety from “the virus.” Human populations were taught that collective avoidance was the most empathetic response, and local and … Continue reading The only thing Covid-19 test kits are good for is illegally collecting and surveilling human DNA
DNA Methylation Could Explain How People Respond to Fear and Anger
A region of the brain known as the amygdala is normally activated when people perceive fear and anger in others. This region, which is part of the limbic system, conveys the message to other regions of the brain to prepare oneself for what may be a threatening situation. We’ve seen previous research that offers an epigenetic … Continue reading DNA Methylation Could Explain How People Respond to Fear and Anger
Potential threats to child brain health: Daily exposure to heavy metals in baby food could build up over time, warns experts
Baby foods are laced with trace amounts of toxic heavy metals that can build up over time through daily exposure and impair children’s brain health, reported the consumer advocacy group Healthy Babies Bright Futures (HBBF). The organization found that 95 percent of nearly 170 commercial baby foods contained lead, arsenic, mercury and cadmium, with one in four products containing all … Continue reading Potential threats to child brain health: Daily exposure to heavy metals in baby food could build up over time, warns experts
Medicinal plants: Potent antiviral herbs to add to your diet
Congestion, fever and sore throat are all symptoms that could point to a viral infection. Fortunately, there are many potent herbs that have been used since ancient times to prevent a viral infection or reduce its severity. These herbs’ antiviral properties can be attributed to the numerous potent compounds they contain. These phytochemicals not only help fight harmful viruses, … Continue reading Medicinal plants: Potent antiviral herbs to add to your diet
AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine will “never be licensed in the US,” says analyst
Because its trial designs do not meet even the basic minimum criteria set forth by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for new vaccines, AstraZeneca’s adenovirus-vector vaccine for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) will “never be licensed in the U.S.,” says SVB Leerink health-care analyst George Porges. Despite claims that the jab is 70 percent effective – … Continue reading AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine will “never be licensed in the US,” says analyst
Curcumin found to have protective effects against renal fibrosis
Chinese researchers investigated the anti-fibrotic effects of curcumin on epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induced by transforming growth factor-B1 (TGF-B1), as well as the mechanism by which it influences the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway. Their findings were published in the journal Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin. According to animal studies, curcumin has protective effects against the development of renal fibrosis. However, the … Continue reading Curcumin found to have protective effects against renal fibrosis
Dairy products can increase the risk of cancer, but these plant-based diets can REDUCE it
A study published in the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association shows that dairy products may increase the risk of prostate cancer but plant-based diets may decrease that risk. Mayo Clinic researchers based their findings on previous studies that examined the link between certain diets and prostate cancer risk. “Our review highlighted a cause for concern with high consumption … Continue reading Dairy products can increase the risk of cancer, but these plant-based diets can REDUCE it
Bisphenol A Can Reprogram Liver’s Epigenome and Result in Disease in Rats
There has been growing literature that suggests how environmental chemical exposure can lead to birth defects but the majority of the studies are association based. A fraction of those studies have shown how ambient chemical exposure affects insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism1 or affecting gut-microbiota2. But how early life chemical exposure can affect epigenetics—or change the epigenome … Continue reading Bisphenol A Can Reprogram Liver’s Epigenome and Result in Disease in Rats
