Brown rice contains significantly higher levels of arsenic than white rice, with the toxic element concentrating in the bran layer. Children under 5, especially infants, face the highest risk due to their higher food intake relative to body weight. Despite its nutritional benefits, brown rice may unintentionally expose young eaters to arsenic levels exceeding safety … Continue reading New study confirms brown rice contains 40% more toxic arsenic than white rice, putting young children at risk
The role of mercury in autism: A deep dive into the cellular evidence
Scientific evidence suggests mercury can disrupt brain function through oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and glial cell impairment – factors also observed in autism. Some individuals have genetic variations, such as differences in the glutathione-S-transferase (GST) gene, which make it harder for their bodies to detoxify mercury. This could increase their vulnerability to its neurological … Continue reading The role of mercury in autism: A deep dive into the cellular evidence
Understanding AUTISM: A comprehensive look at its causes and impact, according to science
Autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder affecting behavior, communication and social interaction, with varying severity levels. The prevalence of autism has increased significantly, raising concerns about contributing factors, such as environmental influences and vaccines. Autism's causes are complex, likely involving genetics, environment and other factors like infections and metabolic disorders. Autism imposes substantial emotional … Continue reading Understanding AUTISM: A comprehensive look at its causes and impact, according to science
Study raises questions about mercury exposure and autism: A look at nine children’s stories
Researchers examined nine children with regressive autism to explain the possible link between mercury exposure and autism symptoms. Eight of the nine children had high mercury levels and showed impaired detoxification ability, despite no major exposure outside of Thimerosal-containing vaccines. Many children had deficiencies in glutathione, alongside abnormal testosterone and homocysteine levels. Children experienced developmental … Continue reading Study raises questions about mercury exposure and autism: A look at nine children’s stories
Study investigates possible link between Hepatitis B vaccine and autism
In 1991, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended the hepatitis B vaccine for all newborns to protect against serious liver infections. However, concerns have been raised about its safety, particularly a potential link to autism. Researchers analyzed data from the National Health Interview Survey (1997-2002) to explore the relationship between hepatitis B vaccination and … Continue reading Study investigates possible link between Hepatitis B vaccine and autism
Study raises questions about potential effects of vaccine ingredients on children’s health
A study published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health examines the potential effects and safety of ethylmercury and aluminum adjuvants, common vaccines ingredients, particularly on young children. Researchers highlight the need for further in-depth studies on how these substances interact in the body, as their combined presence may have greater health implications … Continue reading Study raises questions about potential effects of vaccine ingredients on children’s health
FDA recalls popular Chinese spice in 15 states due to LEAD CONTAMINATION
The FDA has recalled Yu Yee Five Spice Powder in 15 states due to lead contamination, affecting 62 cases sold primarily in the Northeast, Midwest and the South. Lead is a potent neurotoxin with no safe exposure level, posing severe risks to vital organs and causing irreversible damage, especially in children. The contaminated spice, distributed … Continue reading FDA recalls popular Chinese spice in 15 states due to LEAD CONTAMINATION
Parasites have killed more humans than all wars combined – is your body fighting a parasite war right now?
Parasites are persistent, dangerous and deadly, but for some reason, modern medicine fails to diagnose and treat them, leaving thousands of diseases to fester and infect humans. Many people think because they exercise and eat fairly healthily that they don’t have to worry about parasites infecting their body, but parasites don’t discriminate, and much of the time … Continue reading Parasites have killed more humans than all wars combined – is your body fighting a parasite war right now?
Many processed foods contain potentially toxic substances NOT LISTED on ingredient labels
You are probably familiar with many of the no-no ingredients in processed foods that are to be avoided at all costs (i.e., synthetic dyes and preservatives), but what about the "invisible" additives that are hiding in foods unlabeled? Known as "processing aids," these hidden additives are not labeled because technically they are not part of the … Continue reading Many processed foods contain potentially toxic substances NOT LISTED on ingredient labels
Consumer Reports claims children’s lunch foods (Snackables) contain toxic levels of lead, cadmium and sodium… but do they really?
Urgent action by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is needed, says Consumer Reports, to address the National School Lunch Program, which is poisoning America's schoolchildren with contaminated food. Consumer Reports testing found that more than 30 million schoolchildren in the U.S. are consuming processed foods that they say are contaminated with high levels of lead and … Continue reading Consumer Reports claims children’s lunch foods (Snackables) contain toxic levels of lead, cadmium and sodium… but do they really?
