STORY AT-A-GLANCE Your body’s blood sugar spike after eating carbs like rice or potatoes reveals how healthy — or dysfunctional — your metabolism really is New research shows there are five distinct carb-response types, and the biggest spike culprit (potatoes, rice, grapes, bread, or pasta) depends entirely on your internal metabolic state People who spike […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Baking soda, derived from natural mineral deposits, has been used for centuries and continues to gain attention for its alkalizing effects and wide-ranging health benefits Its pH-balancing power helps ease acid reflux, reduce inflammation, and may even slow cancer growth by creating a less acidic environment around tumors Baking soda helps whiten teeth, […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Just 30 days of daily mindfulness meditation helped adults from their 20s to 80s sharpen their focus and reduce distractions in real-time lab-based attention tasks Participants who meditated had quicker, more accurate eye movements — meaning their brains learned to prioritize what mattered and filter out distractions more effectively Researchers used eye-tracking to […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Using antidepressants to address depression during pregnancy is now linked to congenital heart defects in babies, with new research showing serious developmental risks during early fetal heart formation Lab studies using human cardiac cells revealed selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) impair energy production, increasing oxidative stress and reducing ATP levels — critical for […]

STORY AT-A-GLANCE One in three women seen in primary care has at least one pelvic floor disorder, but most have never been diagnosed or treated Aging, excess weight, and chronic straining are major risk factors for pelvic floor issues like urinary leaks, constipation, and pelvic organ prolapse Many women silently live with multiple overlapping pelvic […]

STORY AT-A-GLANCE Healthy soil acts like a sponge, absorbing nearly all rainfall, while conventionally tilled soil sheds water and erodes, contributing to droughts and floods Livestock, when managed properly through rotational grazing, restore degraded land by fertilizing, reseeding, and rebuilding soil structure naturally Farmers around the world are trapped in a broken agricultural system that […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Research shows consuming more than seven sweetened drinks per week reduces sperm concentration by 22% and negatively impacts sperm count, shape, and movement Higher intake of sugary beverages lowers testosterone and key fertility hormones while increasing DNA damage in sperm — making conception harder and raising the risk of miscarriage Animal studies found […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Ultraprocessed foods are designed to melt in your mouth and bypass the need for chewing, which blocks your brain’s ability to register fullness and drives you to overeat Food companies use sound, smell, appearance, and packaging to stimulate your senses and condition your brain to crave their products through a marketing tactic called […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Eating more than 300 grams of ultraprocessed food per day significantly increases your risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, regardless of your weight or calorie intake Just one extra serving of ultraprocessed food per day, such as a granola bar or soda, raises your diabetes risk by 4%, and the risk climbs rapidly […]
By: A Midwestern Doctor STORY AT-A-GLANCE The widespread promotion of vaccination is predicated upon having profound benefits and no risks. As vaccines frequently injure their recipients, sustaining this paradigm requires suppressing all evidence of vaccine harm and psychologically programming vaccine supporters to be incapable of seeing injuries all around them Because of this, Senator Ron […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Exercise stops your immune system from overreacting after a muscle injury, helping prevent short-term pain from becoming chronic Daily physical activity, even as simple as swimming or walking, switches off inflammatory signals that keep pain going Your brain’s pain control system is retrained through consistent movement, reducing sensitivity, and interrupting the chronic pain […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE People with recent-onset tinnitus scored significantly lower on cognitive tests measuring memory, focus, and processing speed, even after accounting for age, stroke, diabetes, and other risk factors Tinnitus hijacks your brain’s attention system, draining cognitive resources and making it harder to concentrate, switch tasks, or remember details Women and those with lower education […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Most people with liver damage have no symptoms and receive a diagnosis only after irreversible scarring has occurred, making early detection and lifestyle changes essential Standard blood tests often miss early-stage liver fibrosis, even when enzyme levels are “normal,” delaying diagnosis until complications like cirrhosis or liver cancer appear The real threat isn’t […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Research shows vitamin B12 rapidly replenishes adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels in pancreatic cells, preventing destructive enzyme activation that causes acute pancreatitis inflammation People with naturally higher vitamin B12 levels show significantly lower risk of developing acute pancreatitis, independent of lifestyle factors Vitamin B12 enhances energy metabolism by converting methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA, stabilizing cell […]

STORY AT-A-GLANCE Adrenal fatigue isn’t recognized as a real medical condition, but the symptoms people report — chronic exhaustion, salt cravings, brain fog — are very real and deserve closer investigation The adrenal glands don’t “burn out” from stress, but persistent overload disrupts your brain’s communication with them, leading to hormone imbalances and daily exhaustion […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Oleic acid, the main fat in olive oil, triggers the creation of new fat cells even when calorie intake stays the same, making weight gain more likely over time Studies show that high oleic acid levels in the blood are strongly linked to obesity risk in both animals and humans, highlighting its role […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE High-dose vitamin D supplementation lowered fasting blood sugar by over 5 mg/dL and improved insulin resistance in just eight to 12 weeks among people with Type 2 diabetes People with vitamin D deficiency, especially those with levels below 20 ng/mL, experienced the most significant improvements in blood sugar control, insulin sensitivity, and overall […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Oregano essential oil significantly reduces inflammation biomarkers within hours, providing quick relief for inflammatory skin conditions Research shows oregano oil effectively combats harmful bacteria, fungi, and parasites, including drug-resistant strains like Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Candida albicans Carvacrol and thymol are oregano’s key components that disrupt microbial membranes, reduce inflammation, and provide […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Heat domes are large areas of intense high pressure that trap hot air and humidity, creating dangerous temperatures reaching 105 to 110 degrees Fahrenheit with health risks for vulnerable populations Proper hydration is crucial for sweating effectively; drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily during heat waves, adding electrolytes if […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Stress is one of the most powerful disruptors of sleep. However, recent research shows it also paradoxically triggers sleep instead of insomnia Acute stress sometimes activates brain circuits that promote non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep as recovery This stress-induced sleep is short-lived. With repeated stress, sleep becomes fragmented […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE The FDA approved lab-grown salmon from Wildtype based solely on the company’s internal safety claims — no third-party testing, animal trials, or public review were ever required This lab-cultivated fish is already being served in upscale restaurants, with plans to expand, even though Wildtype’s production methods and additives remain largely undisclosed Wildtype used […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Linoleic acid (LA), once a trace nutrient in the human diet, now makes up as much as 25% of daily calories for many Americans, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and long-term metabolic stress LA transforms into harmful byproducts called OXLAMs that damage DNA, impair cellular energy production, and drive inflammation linked to heart disease, […]
