Statin drugs, i.e., “mitochondrial toxins,” linked to heart disease, even though they were pushed with promises of PROTECTING the vascular system

January 04, 2024 -

Research published in the journal Clinical Pharmacology reveals that statins are more aptly described as "mitochondrial toxins" in that they impair normal muscle function in the heart and blood vessels by depleting the body of coenzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10.

An antioxidant that cells use for growth and maintenance, CoQ10 does not synthesize properly when a person takes statins as prescribed by doctors to prevent heart disease, which is said to be the leading cause ...

"The pace of growth is slowing, but that's ...

Sweet and deadly: Here’s how SUGAR fuels CANCER in the body

December 05, 2023 -

How does this happen?

It's best to start from the source itself – sugar, a simple carbohydrate produced naturally by green plants through the process of photosynthesis. Sugar cane and sugar beets have the greatest quantities of sugar of all plant types, making them the top sources of table sugar after processing.

Glucose, fructose, sucrose, dextrose, lactose and maltose are some of the different forms of sugar found in food. Sugar molecules can stick together; ...

Anti-parasite benzimidazole drugs show promise for treating cancer, but remain SUPPRESSED by the FDA

October 13, 2023 -

However, in the United States, the drug remains unapproved for use in humans, despite its low toxicity profile in both animals and humans since the 1960s. This inexpensive and efficacious anti-parasitic drug could be useful in treating various cancers, but just like the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin, it too remains suppressed by the Food and Drug Administration and is relegated to being just some "horse dewormer" for veterinary use only.Multiple peer-reviewed studies ...

What is D-ribose and how can it boost your heart health?

March 24, 2020 -

What is D-ribose?

D-ribose is a naturally occurring simple sugar found in the body's ribonucleic acid (RNA), a macromolecule that plays an essential role in protein synthesis. D-ribose can also be found in different types of foods, such as proteins, grains, fungi, fruits and vegetables. D-ribose is an important component of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which supplies energy to cells.

Like D-ribose, ATP is vital to cellular metabolism. As an energy molecule, ...

A natural sugar molecule, D-ribose, found to improve heart function and blood flow

July 01, 2018 -

One very promising alternative can be found in the form of the natural sugar molecule D-ribose. This simple sugar molecule is an essential component of the molecule used by cells for transferring energy known as adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. This is vital for cellular energy metabolism, and by extension, heart health.

Inflammation and oxidative damage deplete ATP, which leads to further oxidative damage and inflammation in a dangerous cycle that puts ...

CoQ10 helps relieve symptoms of congestive heart failure, prevents premature death in patients

May 17, 2020 -

A recent review published in Circulation: Heart Failure found that CoQ10 supplementation can reduce the risk of premature death in patients with heart failure. CoQ10 supplementation also improved overall blood circulation and stimulated the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the heart.What is coenzyme Q10?

CoQ10 is a fat-soluble chemical found in almost every cell in the body. Its primary function is to help convert food into energy.

CoQ10 is also ...

Can CoQ10 reduce the appearance of wrinkles?

February 19, 2020 -

The loss of this vital nutrient also means a reduction in skin tone and more wrinkles, the hallmark signs of aging. However, supplementing with CoQ10 not only stops aging on its tracks, it also protects the body from diseases. A recent article, which appeared in the Journal of Aging Research, showed that CoQ10 can help address aging-related skin issues, such as skin dryness, wrinkles and loss of skin elasticity. Published by researchers from the Albstadt-Sigmaringen University ...

The real link between sugar consumption and cancer

December 03, 2018 -

Because the right type and balance of sugar molecules are necessary for cellular energy production, sugar consumption alone is not the cause of cancer. Likewise, a sugarless diet will not automatically eradicate cancer from the body. The breakdown of normal metabolic processes within the cell causes inflammation and is therefore the precursor to a host of chronic diseases, including the development of cancerous cells. The real link between sugar and cancer is the consumption ...

A professor of toxicology explains how EMFs cause biological damage and even cancer

June 03, 2018 -

In simple terms, EMFs are invisible low or high frequency forces that emanate from electrical and wireless devices. The electricity and appliances we use on a daily basis all emit low frequency EMFs, while wireless devices like routers generate high frequency EMFs.

Research has linked a variety of problems including headaches, fatigue, digestive issues and sleeping problems to both low and high frequency EMFs. There is also evidence that EMFs cause more serious conditions ...

Heat halts pain inside the body (press release)

Dr Brian King, of the UCL Department of Physiology, led the research that found the molecular basis for the long-standing theory that heat, such as that from a hot-water bottle applied to the skin, provides relief from internal pains, such as stomach aches, for up to an hour. Dr King said: "The pain of colic, cystitis and period pain is caused by a temporary reduction in blood flow to ...

Yale researchers add “reduction of hearing loss” to the many benefits of NAC supplements

February 21, 2017 -

Beyond the cell membrane or skin of the cell is a gel-like substance called cytoplasm. Inside the cytoplasm is a brain, or nucleus. One of the most important parts inside the cytoplasm is an energy production center called the mitochondria. The mitochondria produce ATP energy, the fuel for all of life’s activities.

The goal of every person should be to maximize the efficiency and performance of their mitochondria. Natural antioxidants feed the mitochondria ...

How can fasting for 16 hours improve your overall well-being?

October 14, 2019 -

What is intermittent fasting?

Intermittent fasting is a type of diet that requires you to stick to an eight-hour eating window.

You can change the chemistry of your cells to boost energy levels, repair your body, and improve overall health and one of the best ways to do this is by fasting for 16 hours. When you fast, your body and brain revert to "rapid cellular cleanup mode." The body burns glucose (sugar) for fuel by default, but fasting makes it switch to ketones (fat) ...
