Coffee and the Heart - Drinking coffee may interfere with your body's ability to keep homocysteine and cholesterol levels in check, most likely by inhibiting the action of certain vitamins.

However, the natural consumption of these vitamins through a proper eating plan is highly recommended instead.

New Fluoride Recommendations - The US Centers Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently issued a new set of recommendations concerning the use of fluoride to prevent cavities. Here is a mock interview made up to show some of the hidden facts of the report.

FTC Should Investigate Companies that Advertise Food Irradiation as 'Pasteurization' - This false advertising should be alarming to many, as the majority of consumers are overwhelmingly opposed to buying or eating irradiated food.

Novel Principles in the Rife Microscope - Royal Raymond Rife made revolutionary discoveries in microscopy, including development of novel microscopes that could see far beyond the accustomed limitation. With his microscope, he was able to "see" ultramicroscopic living forms much smaller than anything considered in the observable state.
