By Chris D. Meletis, ND – Recent investigations have identified microplastic particles in human blood, placental tissue, lung tissue, brain, liver, kidney, breast milk, and atherosclerotic plaque. While these findings confirm that human exposure occurs and that at least some particles can enter biological systems, the clinical implications remain an active area of investigation.
by Gary Null, PhD – Embrace your passion. Not the curated, hashtagged, algorithmically optimized version, but the real thing. The messy, inconvenient, time-consuming, occasionally embarrassing, deeply human thing that makes you forget to check your phone, and makes three hours feel like 20 minutes.
By E. Blaurock-Busch, PhD – Naphthalene can be toxic by ingestion, inhalation, or absorption through the skin when humans are exposed to it in more than a passing way. In small amounts it may produce symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, headache, and fever. In larger amounts, it may induce more serious problems, including liver damage, blindness, coma, convulsions, and death.
by Volodymyr Zhnakin – Improving family well-being does not require a complete lifestyle overhaul. It simply requires intentional organization. By treating the home as a system that needs clear routines and simple structure, families can lower stress and daily friction, and build stronger relationships.
By Jacob Schor, ND – In 1772, William Heberden invented the term angina pectoris to describe its symptoms of chest pain. Angina was an invented name, a cross between words used to describe sore throat, anger, and anguish, so that angina pectoris meant something like a severe anguishing angry sore throat pain in the chest.
By Donnie Yance, CN, MH, RH(AHG) – I’ve seen countless patients improve their health not through aggressive pharmaceutical intervention, but through fundamental lifestyle changes: eating real food, moving their bodies, managing stress, cultivating relationships, and finding purpose. These interventions work with our biology, not against it. They reduce inflammation, optimize metabolic function, and support the body’s innate healing capacity.
by Gary Null, PhD – What do we normally use to overcome obstacles? Fear, anger, uncertainty, envy, jealousy. Think of how many times you have been motivated by jealousy.
What if, instead, you simply had love? Do you know what love can do to a problem? It transforms your reaction to it. Love guides you to reframe events and to give the benefit of the doubt to yourself and to others.
Review by Patricia S. Lemer, MEd. LPC – Plant, animal, and human biology use electromagnetic radiation as light to survive, through photosynthesis, circadian rhythms, and the production of life-sustaining substances such as melatonin and Vitamin D. An over-abundance of ionizing radiation from higher frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum causes well-known changes to skin.
By Matthew Melnick, Founder, Thinnr Weight Loss – I want to walk through what we actually observed, be honest about what the data is and is not, make the case for why the delivery mechanism matters as much as the intervention itself, and argue that the practices best positioned for the next decade of metabolic care are the ones leaning into this kind of technology rather than treating it as a threat.
By Donna Young, Health Policy Reviewer – Premature cord clamping leaves infants subtly and seriously impaired, by stripping them of vital oxygenated blood, iron stores, and essential stem cells. This standard policy compromises brain myelination, weakens cardiovascular transition, and leaves newborns unnecessarily vulnerable.
By Eleonore Blaurock-Busch – Though the agricultural use of chemicals may lead to an increase in crops, it also leads to an increase in cancer and other health problems.
by Gary Null, PhD – In order to grow you must put an end to distractions and learn to focus. You have to be conscious in the moment, and then you have to create balance in that moment. The only way to get healthy and conquer self-sabotage is to figure out where you have allowed imbalance into your lives.
By Darrell S.C.S. Misak, ND, RPh – Can you have a seemingly healthy functional medical assessment without observed health restoration? In other words, how do we explain when an improvement in lab assessments does not correlate with improvement in client complaints?
By Deborah Nathan – Menopause-related bone loss can affect both cortical bone, the dense outer layer of bone, and trabecular bone, the porous, honeycomb-like bone found inside areas such as the spine, hip, and ends of long bones. Because trabecular bone is remodeled more frequently than cortical bone, it may be affected earlier and more rapidly by estrogen decline.
By Gary Null, PhD – If there is one lesson history teaches without exception, it is this: power rarely corrects itself. Trust should never be automatic. It should be conditional upon transparency, honesty, and a willingness to admit error, and when leaders refuse accountability, the responsibility returns to us.
By Faezeh Sharif – Cancer challenges the view of life as an orderly and continuous process, a challenge that can entail major psychological consequences. Patients who perceive their illness as more dangerous, chronic, and uncontrollable become more passive, report greater disability, have poorer social functioning, and experience more psychological problems.
By Jacob Teitelbaum, MD – The medications used to suppress inflammation are problematic. For example, arthritis medications are associated with a 35% increased risk of heart attack and stroke, as well as bleeding ulcers.
In some, severe pain can be caused by food sensitivities. Especially dairy and gluten. If the pain is persistent despite other treatments, it is worth taking a month to go strictly gluten and dairy free to see if that helps.
by Gary Null, PhD – With this acceptance of yourself and others, conflict can dissolve and you can be in balance. Where there is balance, there is harmony. And where there is harmony, there is bliss. In bliss, there is no need to sublimate. When you are not sublimating, then there is no destructive behavior leading to addictions.
It has proven to be difficult, if not impossible, to proceed to full-scale randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for most of the natural methods that cannot be patented or otherwise monopolized.
By addressing food sensitivities through targeted testing and personalized dietary interventions, individuals can take a significant step toward reducing inflammation, improving gut health, and enhancing overall well-being.
As the producer of The Moss Report, the year leading up to the Covid-19 pandemic was filled with anticipation and excitement. We had invested years of hard work and significant resources into two major projects: our feature film, Immunotherapy: The Battle Within, and...
