The 14 Best Dietary Supplements for Cardiovascular Health

Dr. Edward Group reveals the fourteen best dietary supplements for cardiovascular health.

Your heart is one organ you can’t live without. In times past, people actually considered the heart the seat of thought and emotion, rather than the brain.

As medical science progressed, experts realized that the heart does not house our thoughts, but rather delivers life-giving oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. As the heart pumps, it sends blood through your veins and arteries, acting as the central part of your cardiovascular system. Read more

Vitamin C Reduces Risk of Cognitive Impairment

A study has found that vitamin C reduces the risk of cognitive impairment.

Vitamin C is highly regarded for its health benefits, which range from supporting the immune system and fighting off disease, to supporting healthy tissues and preventing wrinkles. Like so many other nutrients, vitamin C plays multiple, valuable roles in a healthy body. While most people think about their vitamin C intake for keeping colds at bay, or perhaps for keeping their skin youthful, a growing body of research is showing that the nutrient may also help keep your brain young and healthy, too.

Note: This authoritative report is lengthy due to requisite need to present convincing information to the medical profession and other demanding readers. However, the first four pages present the main findings of this report.

The 6 Best Herbs and Supplements to Skyrocket Your Sex Drive

These six herbs and supplements will skyrocket your sex drive, according to Jordan Gray.

Your sex drive is a good overall indicator of how healthy you are. If you are a male and you aren’t waking up with regular erections (especially if you’re a male under 50 years old), then that can be an issue.

More Fake News: Anttioxidant Supplements Kill

This sort of Big Pharma propaganda comes out from time to time.  Bill Sardi explains why this newest attempt to malign dietary supplements is just more fake news.

If you think President Donald Trump is getting unfairly slammed by fake news stories distributed by major news media consider the predicament of vitamin shop owners today who have been branded as “killers” in a news report that is being widely circulated today.

The evidence is not new. But the researchers said: “our study has given a comprehensive description of the response capacity (of the human body) for the first time.” This reporter published a descriptive article in 2014 on the same subject at KnowledgeofHealth.com.

The news story emanating from the report published in Redox Biology was quite different than the actual research.

The news report said: “Antioxidant don’t work as billed,” referring to oral antioxidant supplements. Read more

The 6 Most Common Vitamin and Mineral Deficiencies

Dr. Joseph Mercola examines the six most common vitamin and mineral deficiencies and how to remedy them.

Eating a balanced whole-food diet, such as described in my nutrition plan, is a foundational requirement for optimal nutrition. It can be quite difficult to get sufficient amounts of vitamins and minerals from your diet if you do not eat real food.

Unfortunately, even if you do eat well, how and where your food was grown can also influence your nutritional intake. Soil quality, for example, can significantly influence the levels of certain nutrients in your food, even if you eat organic. Read more

Many people associate ginseng with regions in Asia, but there are actually several types of ginseng and a few of them grow in other areas of the world.

The long, solid track record has prompted many people to add a ginseng supplement to their diet. Read more

Dietary Supplements for Your Brain

Margaret Durst lists the best supplements to keep your brain healthy.

BRAIN and NERVE function are important. Preserve them and make them better with supplements and lifestyle changes.

Some of the KEYS to long-term health for brain and nerves involves keeping insulin, blood sugar, inflammation, and toxicity at low levels.

HIGH BLOOD SUGAR and high insulin can damage the fine tissues of the brain and nervous system. You do not have to be diabetic to experience this. Eating a low glycemic diet is important. If you want more information, a good book is “The Glycemic Load Diet.”

TOXICITY is also an issue in terms of brain and nerve health – especially heavy metal toxicity. All heavy metals act as neuro-toxins. Avoid unnecessary chemicals when possible – this includes pesticides, fertilizers, herbicides, cleaning products, smoking, etc. Read more

Give your heart health some attention! The heart is like your engine room, pumping nutrient-and-oxygen-rich blood throughout the body and beating 100,000 times a day.

So if you don’t treat your heart right, with daily activity, good food and exercise – and natural heart health supplements – you could be setting yourself up for trouble. Read more

Depressed and Snappy? You Need Serotonin!

 Depressed and snappy? You need serotonin, says Margaret Durst.

Serotonin is the brain chemical that makes us feel happy and content. When we eat a wholesome meal, the body is notified through the release of serotonin that we are well fed, helping us feel content and satisfied. A lack of serotonin causes depression, anxiety, irritability, negativity and food cravings. From a nutritional standpoint, a lack of serotonin is frequently a result of bad diet and food reactions.

7 Facts About Resveratrol

Edward Group reveals seven facts about the unique antioxidant trans-resveratrol.

Propelled to fame as a result of a multitude of studies investigating the phytochemical properties of plant materials, resveratrol more than lives up to its reputation. This very unique antioxidant has been called a fountain of youth for its effectiveness against a variety of age-related diseases. In this post, we’re going to explore 7 reasons why you should get it regularly from your diet.

1. What Is It?

Resveratrol is a phenolic compound, a stilbene, created by plants in response to injury, infection, and fungal attack. It exists in two forms, the trans- and cis- molecule forms, with trans-resveratrol being the highly-absorbable form. The compound is regarded as having powerful antioxidant effects, thereby supporting health at the cellular level. Read more

Natural Butt Enhancement Supplements

Many women would like to improve the appearance of their butt by making it bigger, rounder, and firmer. Exercise is the best way to do that, but exercise gets the best results when the body is well-nourished. A nutritious diet is important, but you cannot possibly get all of the nutrients you need to get optimal results from your exercise program through diet alone.

8 Ways to Fake a Vitamin Study

Periodically, the mainstream media makes a big deal out of a new "study" that claims to prove that dietary supplements are ineffective, dangerous, or both. Mike Adams reveals how pharmaceutical companies manipulate these studies to get the results they want.

Quackity quack, the quacks are back, and this time they're targeting fish oil supplements, claiming that taking fish oils raises your risk of prostate cancer.

Hogwash. This is just another case of pure fearmongering quackery by the anti-vitamin crowd. Remember: All these people attacking vitamins are the very same people who are on the take from Big Pharma. Remember, too, that companies like GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) have already been convicted of multiple felony crimes by the U.S. Department of Justice. And today in China, GSK was caught yet again engaging in widespread bribery and criminal fraud. Read more

Protect Your Heart with CoQ10 and Vitamin B6

New research has found that two simple nutrients, vitamin B6 and CoQ10, can improve the health of your heart.

If you're looking for ways to improve the health of your heart, don't overlook the dramatic impact of two simple nutrients: vitamin B6 and CoQ10.

In a controlled study published in the journal Nutrition Research in October 2012, researchers from Chung Shan Medical University in Taiwan measured blood levels of vitamin B6 and CoQ10 in 89 healthy controls and 45 people with coronary artery disease (CAD, defined as at least 50 percent stenosis of one major coronary artery). The researchers found that participants with CAD had significantly lower levels of both chemicals than healthy participants. Read more

Take SAMe to Feel Better All Over

Want to feel better all over? A powerful SAM-e supplement can help joints, liver, mood, and much more, says Margaret Durst.

SAMe is a biological compound that is found in every cell in the human body. It is important because it plays a key role in methylation which is a process that activates more than a hundred different processes in the body – from preserving joint health, protecting against heart disease, and producing neurotransmitters such as serotonin.

The average adult makes about 6 to 8 grams of SAMe per day. Most of this is made in the liver where it works to detoxify the body of poisons such as drugs, alcohol, heavy metals, pesticides and solvents. Numerous research studies have found that raising the level of SAMe in the body helps to reduce the age related biological processes that result in diseases such as depression, osteoarthritis and liver disorders.

Research has shown that SAMe stimulates cartilage to grow which is a component in reversing osteoarthritis. Cartilage is the spongy cushion between the bone and the joint which gradually deteriorates in osteoarthritis. Also SAMe has been shown to reverse damage in the synovial fluid in the joints caused by factors common in rheumatoid arthritis. Read more

Want to Look Younger and Healthier?

Want to look younger and healthier? Dr. Joseph Mercola gives six reasons astaxanthin, the sunscreen in a pill, works so well.

• Sunscreen in a pill?
• Prevention of wrinkles, dry skin, age spots and freckles?
• Reversing the visible signs of aging?

If you think checking "all of the above" seems too good to be true, you're not alone.

But there just happens to be a natural compound that clinical studies are suggesting does ALL of the above – without a hefty price tag or side effects. This is a little miracle your plastic surgeon won't want you to hear about.

It's a relatively unknown carotenoid called astaxanthin, which is now believed to be the most potent antioxidant nature has to offer. Read more

Nutritional Cure for Gray Hair AND Sagging Breasts

I've heard of this cure for gray hair, but I've never heard that it could also help sagging breasts.

Pass the Iodine, Please

A small amount of iodine is critical for weight loss, energy, and concentration, according to Samara Felesky-Hunt.

Iodine is an essential element that we need in very tiny amounts.

The body obtains iodine from food and stores it in the thyroid, where it is used for manufacturing the thyroid hormone. Once its job is done, the remaining iodine is filtered by the kidneys and removed.

Both vitamin A and selenium are important for the body's efficient absorption of iodine; if there is not enough of these nutrients in your diet, you may be making too little thyroid hormone.

A lack of iodine in the diet can impair the workings of the thyroid gland and cause lethargy, weight gain, cold extremities and poor concentration. Read more

3 Ways to Compensate for the Deficiences in the Standard American Diet

The standard American diet is deadly. Too many Americans are both fat and malnourished. Losing weight is simple: eat less and exercise more, but the basics of nutrition are a mystery to many. Margaret Durst gives three ways to compensate for the nutritional deficiencies of the standard American diet.

Just the basics of nutrition are a concern to many. I find that some very basic nutritional supplements help almost everybody.

A good multivitamin is the first basic. What makes a multivitamin good is the quality of the contents along with the technology used to encapsulate or tablet the contents. The better vitamins do not have pharmaceutical glaze, artificial coloring, several kinds of cellulose, nor do they contain synthetic vitamins such as synthetic E or dl-alpha tocopherol. Read your labels. Read more
