Activating this circuit in mice led to slower breathing and decreased anxiety, while shutting it […]
Muscle spasms and twitches are common signs that something in the body’s balance is off. While most people think of them as “just tight muscles,” they’re often the body’s way of signaling deeper issues involving nervous system stress, mineral imbalance, dehydration, or joint misalignment. 1. The Role of Muscle Imbalance When muscles on one side of […]

The findings spotlight AMR as one of the most urgent global health crises of our time—particularly for children in South-East […]
What the study actually did• A Japanese team synthesized 12 “hybrid” vitamin-K molecules by grafting a retinoic-acid side chain onto vitamin K (MK-4). In cell studies, several of these analogues drove neural progenitors to become neurons at ~3× the potency of natural MK-4. In mice, lead compounds crossed the blood–brain barrier and boosted brain MK-4 […]

Pain is the number one reason people search for health advice online. It’s also the most common reason patients end up in a doctor’s office. But in today’s healthcare system, the most common “treatment” for pain isn’t actually treatment at all — it’s cover-up. Pills, injections, and quick fixes might mask pain for a while, […]
When most people think of immunity, they picture white blood cells fighting infection or maybe the lymph nodes swelling when the body is battling a virus. But there are two small, often-overlooked organs that play central roles in keeping the immune system strong: the spleen and the thymus. The Role of the Spleen The spleen […]
For centuries, mushrooms have been prized not only as food but as natural medicine. Modern research is confirming what traditional systems already knew: each mushroom species has a unique profile of compounds—beta-glucans, antioxidants, and other phytochemicals—that support different aspects of health. Here’s a guide to the most researched medical mushrooms, what they may help with, […]
In natural healthcare and applied kinesiology, practitioners often encounter puzzling phenomena where the body seems to “misreport” what’s really going on. Two such patterns are known as switching and phantom organ responses. Understanding these effects can shed light on how the nervous system and energetic circuits work — and how to correct them so true […]
Most people think of viruses as short-term invaders: you catch a cold or the flu, your immune system fights it off, and then it’s gone. That’s true for many viruses. But some viruses don’t actually leave — instead, they hide inside our cells, waiting for the right moment to resurface. These are called latent viruses, and […]
When it comes to food as medicine, one of the simplest guides is to “eat the rainbow.” The natural pigments that give vegetables their vibrant colors are not just for beauty—they carry specific phytonutrients that target different systems in the body. Each color tends to emphasize a particular healing effect, and when you combine them, […]

1) Acetaminophen-in-pregnancy The administration is expected to advise limiting acetaminophen in early pregnancy (except for high fevers), citing observational studies that report associations with later ASD/ADHD. But a very large Swedish sibling-comparison study (≈2.5M births) found no causal link, and major medical groups still consider acetaminophen appropriate in pregnancy when used as directed—so this will […]
