Growing research has shown that higher blood insulin can result in increased cancer risk. Because insulin is a growth factor, high insulin levels trigger rapid cell division and can cause cells to lose control of their DNA regulator genes leading to increased potential for tumor progression and cancer metastases. High levels of insulin are now [...]
Introduction: Stroke occurs when the brain doesn't receive enough blood supply, leading to oxygen deprivation. It can result from various causes like blood clots (ischemic stroke), bleeding into tissue (hemorrhagic stroke), or ruptured blood vessels (subarachnoid hemorrhage). Until the 1980s, the most common stroke type, due to arterial blood clots, lacked effective treatment until clot-dissolving [...]
Introduction: A stroke manifests when the brain receives insufficient blood supply, resulting in oxygen deprivation. It can occur due to various factors, including blood clots in blood vessels (ischemic stroke), bleeding of blood vessels into tissue (hemorrhagic stroke), or ruptured blood vessels (subarachnoid hemorrhage or ruptured aneurysm). The onset of a stroke triggers rapid brain [...]
Mounting scientific evidence over decades has established that atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder involved in cardiovascular disease. Although a variety of inflammatory markers (ie, C-reactive protein) have been associated with atherosclerosis and its consequences, it is important to identify principal mediators of the inflammatory responses. Among the potentially critical sources of vascular inflammation during [...]

Of these, 15 million Americans develop severe arthritis-related pain. The most common form of arthritis, known as osteoarthritis, occurs when the cartilage in your joints wears away. This [...]
Scoliosis is NOT only a spinal curvature, but an entire cascade of hormonal, neurological, and digestive disturbances that manifest the spinal curvature we know as scoliosis. This article discusses 5 common symptoms of scoliosis that are not spine-related. Anxiety/Panic In children with idiopathic scoliosis (IS), this is often observed but not reported until we [...]
Lyme disease is growing at epidemic rates, with 30,000 new cases diagnosed each month. Lyme disease is very difficult to diagnose, since only about half of all people who contract Lyme disease ever recall getting a tick bite or bullseye rash. Unfortunately, delays in treatment, even only a few days, can result in a lifetime [...]
A new study published late last year has shown that a chronic deficiency of vitamin D can limit the production of B vitamins by our beneficial gut bacteria. More specifically, the researchers found that vitamin D deficiency caused a secondary pantothenic acid deficiency, known as vitamin B5. This B vitamin is important for normal production [...]
