Are TED Talks Now Against Alternative Health?

Amanda Froelich, Guest Waking Times In case you haven’t heard, it seems TED (recently criticized as joining Monsanto’s GMO agenda) no longer supports any talks regarding GMOs, food as medicine, or even the subject of how food can help prevent behavioral disorders in children.

So-Called Healthy Oils You Should Avoid

Natasha Longo, Prevent Disease Waking Times When it comes to healthy edible oils, mainstream nutritionists have been indoctrinated into a world of misinformation.

Sue McAllister, Mercury News Waking Times Breathing is one of the body’s fundamental functions, yet most of us give it no more attention than we give the national product of Lichtenstein.

Nathan Daley, MD, MPH, Green Med Info Waking Times OMG, GMOs!

Brook Le Van, Guest Waking Times None of us easily comprehends how much a trillion dollars is, or a trillion anything, for that matter, but as taxpayers we are investing more than 2.3 trillion dollars into our current health care industry.
