The Unsettling Rise of Microwave Syndrome

Uncategorized
In this series, we explore the omnipresent effects of electromagnetic fields—from common home electronics to 5G—and their impacts on the brain and body. Courtney Gilardi’s 10-year-old daughter never had problems sleeping. But in August 2020, the morning after a 5G cell tower was switched on within 450 feet of their Pittsfield, Massachusetts, home, she woke up complaining of headaches, dizziness, a buzzing in her head, and general malaise. Normally, she gets up at 8 a.m. But on that day, she didn’t come downstairs till the afternoon. “She didn’t look well, and she said that she was headachy, dizzy, buzzy. Those are not words that she has ever used to describe how she’s been feeling before,” Ms. Gilardi said. The girl, her sister, and Ms. Gilardi herself, who said she starte...

‘COVID Tongue’ May Last for Over a Year, 3 Ways to Treat It

Uncategorized
Food still doesn’t taste right, even months after your bout with COVID? You may have lingering traces of COVID-19 on your tongue, new research published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) reveals. The virus can remain in parts of the tongue containing our taste buds, disrupting the formation and regeneration of new taste buds for up to 63 weeks after an acute infection. Post-COVID Rashes, Bumps, Discoloration? Blame ‘COVID Tongue’ Of all the COVID symptoms reported during the pandemic, perhaps the strangest is “COVID tongue,” an infection-related rash or inflammation affecting the mouth and tongue. In some cases, the tongue may appear swollen and discolored. The rash can manifest in various forms, from small, flat, red or purple spots to large, raised bumps. ...

Making the Most of Iron-Rich Food

Uncategorized
Of all the minerals required by the human body, iron is the most suggestive of strength. Indeed, without sufficient iron the body becomes frail, tired, and cold. Iron deficiency weakens the immune system, leaving the body vulnerable to disease and infection. Iron plays an important role in many bodily processes. But our bodies use most of it to make the blood protein hemoglobin, which distributes oxygen from our lungs to our cells. Daily iron requirements vary from person to person—from 8 milligrams  to 30 milligrams a day. In general, women need more (they lose iron with menstruation), and children need more to support their growth. Pregnant women require the most, grown men the least. Severe iron deficiency leads to anemia—a lack of hemoglobin characterized by weakness, fat...

Simple Steps to Keep Inflammation in Check

Uncategorized
What do a mattress, a toothbrush, salmon, and sneakers have in common? They may all be able to help you fight chronic inflammation—a persistent state of immune system activity that’s linked to several health problems and risks. The more healthy habits you have, the better chance you’ll have at limiting inflammation and disease risk. Inflammation is one of the body’s key defenses. It happens when you get injured or become infected by a microbe and your body sends out inflammatory immune cells to attack, isolate, and repair. But sometimes, lifestyle habits keep this immune response going, and it can impair healthy tissue and wear the body down. Fortunately, certain lifestyle habits can calm inflammation. A healthful diet, regular exercise, sound sleep, good oral health, and relaxati...

A Functional Approach to Osteoporosis and Bone Health

Uncategorized
Several factors can contribute to osteoporosis, and many of these are within your control. Rather than focus on one isolated deficiency or issue, it’s wise to consider your broader lifestyle for risk factors and take steps to prevent the osteoporosis. For example, systemic inflammation is a primary driver of osteoporosis. If there is chronic, systemic inflammation throughout the body, bone remodeling is inhibited, contributing to the development of osteoporosis. Ongoing inflammation can arise from several factors, ranging from diet to stress to environmental toxins. Osteoporosis often presents in combination with another inflammatory condition, such as diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. Essentially, chronic inflammation can lead to a chain reaction of conditions. Osteopo...

Grandparenting Can Be a Strategy for Better Health

Uncategorized
Stacy Rizzo has a new outlook on life now that she has become a grandmother. In early 2022, the California woman added three grandsons to her family, ages 11, 7, and 2. She also got an adult daughter, Stephanie Bernardy, in the deal. The two women met in Surrogate Grandparents—USA, a private Facebook group that fosters online connections across generations. Ms. Bernardy, who lives in the Midwest, was in the group because her parents died when she was a teen, and she didn’t want her boys to miss out on the special love of grandparents. Ms. Rizzo and her husband, Nick, weren’t able to have children. It was painful watching her childhood friends having babies, but travel and work kept her life full for many years. After the COVID-19 pandemic, Ms. Rizzo had a desire for deeper re...

Get the Most out of Your Cup of Coffee: Best Ways to Drink It

Uncategorized
Some people think coffee is refreshing and helps them lose weight, so they enjoy a cup or two daily. On the other hand, some believe coffee affects cardiovascular health and choose to avoid it. Dr. Chang Chin-chien, a 78-year-old honorary professor of surgery at National Taiwan University Hospital, still operates on patients every week. One of his health-preserving secrets is drinking three cups of coffee a day. Initially resistant to coffee, Dr. Chang began to study it after he finally did taste (and enjoyed) it.

Over the years, he authored several books on the topic, such as “Coffee and Health—Coffee Laboratory” and “A Cup of Coffee Figh...
