Ketogenic Diets Slash Inflammation & Boost Cancer Recovery.
A 2025 meta-analysis in Frontiers in Nutrition examined multiple trials comparing ketogenic diets (very low-carb, high-fat) with standard diets in cancer patients. The ketogenic group experienced significantly reduced fat mass and visceral fat, lower blood glucose and insulin, and improvements in LDL, total cholesterol, as well as fatigue and insomnia.
One Psilocybin Trip Can Deliver Two Years Of Depression Relief.
A 2025 study reported in ScienceDaily highlights that a single dose of psilocybin produced significant and sustained reductions in depression for cancer patients—lasting up to 2 years after treatment.
Selenium May Protect Against Cancer, Diabetes, and Aging.
A 2025 review in Nutrients by Zhang dives into the crucial roles selenium plays in our bodies. As a key part of selenoproteins, this micronutrient helps balance redox reactions, regulate cell growth, support the immune system, and guard against DNA damage, chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, and neurodegeneration.
Even Low Doses of Glyphosate Can Trigger Cancer.
A groundbreaking 2-year controlled study on rats—considered the gold standard for cancer research—found that even “safe” levels of glyphosate exposure caused multiple types of cancer, including leukemia, liver, thyroid, kidney, and brain tumors.
Your Spit Could Predict Cancer, Heart Disease, and More.
Researchers at the University of the Basque Country (2025) have discovered that saliva contains hundreds of DNA methylation markers linked to major diseases—including cancer, coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, and Parkinson’s.
Nearly Half of U.S. Tap Water May Contain Pfas—Synthetic ‘Forever Chemicals’ Linked to Serious Health Risks.
A 2023 U.S. Geological Survey study found that at least 45% of the nation’s tap water is estimated to have one or more types of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). PFAS are used in various products like non-stick cookware and firefighting foams and are known for their persistence in the environment.
Your Sunscreen Is Doing More Harm Than Good.
Despite marketing claims, major studies show no clear link between UV exposure and melanoma, and outdoor workers may even have lower melanoma rates than those indoors. Meanwhile, most conventional sunscreens contain seed oils that oxidize under heat, hormone-disrupting chemicals like oxybenzone, and titanium dioxide nanoparticles that can reach your brain.
