(Natural News) The 2011 Fukushima disaster caused massive radiation contamination of food supplies and water sources not just in Japan, but all around the world. People need to identify these threats to their health and take appropriate means to protect themselves and their families. Increased levels of cesium and strontium radionuclides appeared in commercially important fish along […]

(Natural News) Parents have a seemingly endless to-do list, and modern conveniences can save a lot of time and hassle. While it’s easy to see the upsides of plastic goods – with their low prices, wide availability, and nearly indestructible nature – all this plastic exposure is compromising our children’s health. Plastic is everywhere, and […]

(Natural News) You’ve probably heard that GMOs are bad, and that’s absolutely accurate – but it’s also an oversimplification. It’s not like high fructose corn syrup, a toxic ingredient that you can easily avoid by not purchasing foods that are made with it. The problem is far more complex and insidious, and it’s killing people […]

(Natural News) Illinois-based researchers tested out the effect of natural antioxidants – vitamin C and epigallocatechin gallate – on hexavalent chromium. They reported that the two antioxidants appear to inhibit the toxic effects of the increasingly widespread water contaminant. Hexavalent chromium is a heavy metal that has many industrial applications. It is a crucial part of chemicals employed in carbon and […]

(Natural News) It’s arguably the biggest existential threat to life on this planet, and it’s only been around for a mere blip in time, historically speaking. We’re talking about wireless communication technologies such as 5G, which a growing number of experts warns is a human health nightmare, especially for kids. Despite its “blazing fast” speeds, […]

(Natural News) The pesticide DDT has been banned in the U.S. for more than four decades, but its effects are still being felt by people who were exposed to the once-pervasive chemical – particularly women. A new study spanning 60 years found that women who were exposed to the pesticide DDT at an early age […]

(Natural News) A small study held by North Carolina-based researchers brought up the possibility that some home remedies and common spices may be contaminated by lead. Upon examining the residences of kids with high concentrations of lead in their blood, they reported finding traces of the heavy metal in ceremonial powders, herbal remedies, and spices. Children with high levels of […]

(Natural News) Nights are getting too bright for people to fall and stay asleep, warned South Korean researchers. They found that rising amounts of light pollution cast by artificial outdoor lighting can cause insomnia in older adults, forcing the affected people to take pharmaceutical drugs in futile attempts to improve their sleep. Published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, their […]

(Natural News) Water – and more specifically, clean water – is life. Without it we could not survive, let alone thrive. But drinking more water to improve one’s health is counterproductive when that water is contaminated with dangerous heavy metals like arsenic and lead. A recent Associated Press (AP) investigation has revealed that old, abandoned […]

(Natural News) Exposure to polybrominated biphenyls, also known as PBBs, has long been known to be dangerous, but now scientists have uncovered yet another negative effect: immune system damage. PBBs are chemicals that were added to the plastics used in making TVs, textiles, foams and computer monitors to make them more fire-resistant. Although they are […]
