Professional herbalists and naturopathic physicians take a very different stance on Comfrey use from the established authorities. Many herbalists and NDs feel it's safe to use Comfrey as long as you don't use it continually, long-term. Therefore, they recommend you use it in moderate doses for 3-6 months, then take a break of 1 month [...]

In my continuing quest for cavity-free dental health for my family, I have taken a second look at fluoride. Whilst knowing that fluoride hardens tooth enamel very effectively, we have stayed away from it because of the negative systemic effects (toxicity and fluorosis). As I took a second, more in-depth look at this mineral though, [...]
Five days after the birth of my third child, Hugo, I was diagnosed with seven different bacterial infections.

Following is a fantastic article showing that high dose vitamin C greatly improves the efficacy of antibiotics.

The idea for this topic came from a reader with a family vacation coming up. And she was really nervous about how to go on a holiday without triggering a flare. Amazingly enough, this had not even occurred to me before - since I travel so often, I've got my "safe travel routines" down pat. [...]

I just returned from pretty much back-to-back trips - one to Edmonton and the other to Los Angeles. In Edmonton, my cousins laughed at me for not having a cell phone. In L.A., not only does the airport have free WiFi, now the planes do as well! Although, if you're 30,000 feet in the air, [...]
Those of you who are familiar with my protocols know that I often recommend and utilize plant-based foods for detox, healing and ongoing health.

Atom-sized, nanoparticle, or angstrom-sized iron (all different names for the same thing) is especially exciting for people with gut disorders, since normal iron is quite irritating to the gut and can trigger intestinal bleeding and/or result in constipation. However, due to its extremely tiny particle size (smaller than DNA) atom-size, angstrom iron does not need [...]
I don't know if you've been getting nervous about the state of our earth, our climate, our population density, our food production, etc.... but I sure have!

Those of you who have my Revised Listen To Your Gut book/program know about the controversy of MAP (Mycobacterium Avium Paratuberculosis) present in roughly 2% of the American milk supply (conventional, pasteurized milk). You also know that I favor raw (untreated, non-pasteurized, non-homogenized) milk products from pasture-fed cows/goats over regular, pasteurized dairy products (even if [...]
The Minerals of Life Trace Minerals contain most of the minerals (64 in total) that used to be present in our soil, before industrial agriculture, mono-crops and widespread pesticide use degraded our soil. And they are all in a naturally-occurring, nanoparticle or angstrom sized form, for instant absorption into the cells, no digestion required. As [...]
Occasionally I get emails from people on welfare or in dire financial straits, who would really love to pursue holistic healing, but they just can't afford the supplements. Or, sometimes people are using natural healing methods, but they find the cost of the healing supplements and practitioner visits eats up all their savings or extra [...]
After months of solid research, looking at source data, these 5 points represent the crucial issues of vaccination that are not being answered. Each highlight a different facet of the vaccination/immunization question; effectiveness, adverse effects, and long-term consequences. The unspoken thread running through each of these is a pressing question: Why haven't more people been [...]
Those of you who have Listen To Your Gut, know that I have been warning people not to use cell phones since 2005.

If you absolutely cannot breastfeed your baby, or if you have to supplement with formula feeding then there are things you can add to commercial formulas to increase their low nutrient value.

I sure hope you don't have kids like mine - who hate sandwiches, but also won't take anything else to school that can't be eaten in about 5 minutes flat. And no, they won't eat healthy, easy things like cold chicken either. So how do I send them off with a healthy school lunch? So, [...]
My friend came to me with one of the most bizarre problems I'd heard of: Ever since she was pregnant with her first child, she would instantly develop a rash wherever her skin was exposed to the sun. Previously, she had no problems with the sun and would tan nicely like everyone else. Well a [...]

As I get deeper and deeper into this whole WiFi/cell phone debacle, the one thing that never ceases to amaze me is how people stubbornly insist on "proven data" quoting Industry-funded sources like Health Canada stating that "a person would have to be in a room within 20 cm of 1,000 WiFi routers for an [...]
David Ogilvy was one of the first big advertising guys to prove that storytelling (a full page worth of small-font text) sold extremely well. When we think of story-based advertising, we often think of those mile-long internet sales letters, or slick ads in niche-market magazines. But these two examples show the unmatched power of storytelling [...]
As the Internet and email become (or already are!) a primary method of communication, corporate and political lobbying groups are getting VERY smart in using tactics to misinform and manipulate people.

Here we have yet another example of our craze for cheap 'n easy resulting in health issues that weren't present when quality and nutrition were the higher priority. Modern people seem to have lost the knowledge that wheat is a grain, and like all grains, needs to be soaked and fermented prior to cooking/ingestion. As [...]
My two older kids, Zara and Oscar, just launched their first website! They are very concerned about the effects of microwave radiation on kids - and the fact that schools and the government, and even parents are not doing anything about it.
