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 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.
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.
Review by Patricia S. Lemer, MEd – This book is a treasure. It should sit on the desk of every family and healthcare practitioner as a daily reference and guidebook. Give it as a gift to expecting couples, and family members. I cannot recommend it more highly for professionals and parents alike!
By Erik Peper – When regulatory safeguards weaken, corporations can function as disease vectors – not through infection, but through environmental exposure. By loosening pollution standards, federal policy negatively affects the health of both present and future generations.
by Diana Crumpler – Given the overlaps between MCS and RLS, an ecological assessment might prove helpful for sufferers of acquired idiopathic RLS who may be affected by manifestations of environmental sensitivity.
By Michelle Perro, MD – Glyphosate and fluoride, when combined, form a partnership that neither regulators nor the public fully understand. Once they come into contact with aluminum, the trio can create a complex molecule that alters how the body performs some of its most fundamental biochemical tasks.
by John D. MacArthur – We don’t really know to what extent biological processes are influenced by the electromagnetic fields that emanate from everything electrical, especially the long-term effects on our extraordinarily complex and sensitive brains when it comes to the safety of cellular (mobile) telephones.
By Michelle Perro, MD – Environmental decisions made today shape the health of future generations. The fetus developing in utero is already responding epigenetically to maternal exposures, nutritional status, stress, and environmental toxicants, and by grounding environmental health policy in the rights of the child, we provide a moral and legal lens through which to evaluate practices that alter the air our youngest breathe and the ecosystems that sustain them.
By Larry Rothenberg – The air we breathe indoors has a far greater impact on health than most realize. A wide range of invisible pollutants—from fine and ultrafine particulate matter (PM2.5) drifting in from traffic or wildfires to infectious aerosols and pathogens circulating through poorly ventilated spaces—shape everything from respiratory and cardiovascular resilience to mental and cognitive well-being.
By Gary Null, PhD – Over two years of investigation into Wikipedia’s treatment of complementary and alternative medicine revealed extreme bias, factual distortion, and questionable referencing, and they’ve dismissed thousands of peer-reviewed studies supporting the effectiveness of nonconventional therapies.
By E. Blaurock-Busch, and Yvette M. Busch – The Forever Chemicals are a threat to the environment and its occupants, and while progress is made in diagnosing and treating exposure, the best plan remains avoiding these harmful, man-made, forever chemicals.
By Sunil J. Wimalawansa – Current regulations fail to protect the public from chronic exposure to food contaminants and toxic additives. Nutrition and micronutrients—especially vitamin D is an important consideration when focusing on disease prevention and public health.
by Michelle Perro, MD – Children are exposed to an ever-increasing array of chemicals that are responsible for the decline in health. We should not have to wait 5-10 years to address this issue, and there are significant changes we can make now, to make a difference.
Even with the best dietary intentions, modern food may no longer provide the full spectrum of essential nutrients, especially for older adults. When combined with age-related changes in absorption and metabolism, this reality supports the judicious use of daily multivitamins as part of a broader preventive care strategy.
We are experiencing a modern epidemic of chronic disease, comprising types and degrees of suffering and disability virtually unknown to past generations. Much of this illness is driven by our human-created environment, including our ubiquitous and ever-growing exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs), and electromagnetic radiation (EMR).

Breathing is typically an unconscious process, and individuals are often unaware of their breathing rate or pattern....
“Those who have a vested interest in the status quo will probably continue to stifle any meaningful change until enough citizens who are concerned about the ecological system are willing to speak out…”
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...
Join us for a thought-provoking and in-depth exploration of one of the most debated and evolving areas in modern medicine. Vaccines and Immunology: Confronting Misinformation, Disinformation, and Seeking the Truth brings together healthcare practitioners for a balanced, data-driven examination of vaccine science, immune system function, clinical outcomes, and the future of immunology research. This two-day conference will feature dynamic keynote sessions with Del Bigtree and Aaron Siri, in addition to other experts on the field of vaccinology. These thought leaders will share their perspectives, research, and insights designed to encourage deeper inquiry, professional dialogue, and critical thinking. Participants will gain exposure to current scientific findings, policy considerations, emerging trends, and real-world case studies that impact clinical decision-making. The goal of this event is to foster constructive, respectful, and informed conversation among professionals committed to patient well-being and medical integrity. Enhance your expertise by beginning the week with a two-day Pre-Conference Workshop on IV Chelation and Therapeutics, September 16–17. This practical training is designed for clinicians interested in expanding treatment options and integrating IV protocols into patient care. This conference is tailored for physicians and healthcare professionals across integrative, functional, and conventional medicine who value informed discussion and professional growth. Join colleagues […]
An Unplugged Physician Gathering at the Omega Institute: This immersive weekend intensive is designed for healthcare providers seeking practical, case-based applications of herbal medicine within modern integrative and restorative medicine practice.
