Homeopathy Under Attack, Part 1 May 12, 2015 Homeopathy under attack: Last month, the FDA held hearings, proposing new regulations on homeopathic remedies to “shield” the public from possible harm. Homeopathic expert Dana Ullman, author of "Homeopathy A-Z," pushes back against Pharma critics with a detailed analysis of how homeopathy works and why it’s safe. Is homeopathy “pseudoscience" as its critics allege? Ullman weighs in with new science on nanotechnology to explain how very tiny amounts of active ingredients in homeopathic products might work to produce an effect (the Silica Hypothesis); Why do critics ignore the extensive science on homeopathy’s efficacy? Do trace amounts of mercury, arsenic and other toxic substances in homeopathic remedies pose a hazard to consumers? Is homeopathy simply based on the Placebo Effect? How is homeopathy similar to vaccination and allergy treatment? What’s the difference between Classic Homeopathy administered by trained master practitioners and popular retail, over-the-counter homeopathic formulas designed for self-care? Click HERE for part 2.

The Dorito Effect, Part 1 May 7, 2015 In his new book, "The Dorito Effect: The Surprising Truth About Food and Flavor," Mark Schatzker declares, “everything wrong with food comes down to the way it tastes.” Why do modern tomatoes suffer from “nutritional brownout?” Why do today’s jumbo-sized “cardboard chickens” require so much in the way of hyped-up flavorings, fried breading and sauces to be palatable? How have food scientists hijacked our taste buds to produce addictive, high-calorie, non-nutritious foods? What is “McRegret?" In our current “obesogenic" food environment, can we still say that obesity is just a moral failing or a matter of gluttony? Naturally-tasty, unadulterated ingredients are the answer, but won’t all those artisanal, grass-fed, or heirloom foods be cost-prohibitive? Will we still be able to feed the planet with fresh, locally-grown, small-scale agricultural products? Mark Schatzker reveals how a food Renaissance is talking place, wherein consumers are demanding more flavorful, nutritious, unadulterated food; and, food producers are responding, with more tasty, natural alternatives to industrially-processed, factory-farmed foods; What can the average consumer do to “live long and eat flavorfully?" Can this approach help failed dieters recover their appetite equilibrium? Click HERE for part 2.

The offensive against herbal supplements, Part 1 April 21, 2015 Dr. Andrea Wong, Vice President of Scientific and Regulatory Affairs for the Council for Responsible Nutrition, weighs in on New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s offensive against herbal supplements; is this an example of grandstanding in the guise of consumer advocacy? Dr. Wong discusses an independent White Paper that critiques the AG’s reliance on an unreliable methodology, DNA barcoding, to assess supplement quality. Is the supplement industry "poorly-regulated” as alleged by the AG? Why hasn’t the AG released the actual reports upon which his investigation is predicated? How can consumers be assured of quality and potency when purchasing natural products? What safeguards are in place to avert toxicity? Was the FDA asleep at the switch over marketing of an amphetamine-like synthetic ingredient (BMPEA) that should have been banned? Is this representative of the unreliability of the supplement industry as a whole? She urges consumers to join the #ReleaseTheReport Twitter campaign. Click HERE for part 2.
