Why are Authorities Mum on These Diseases?
If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that you have to be very careful who you trust and what you believe, especially where your health is concerned. Because sadly, the medical industry is largely captured by pharma and no one wants to bite the hand that feeds them (or risk losing a lucrative career).

4 Ways to Help Prevent 2 Diseases
The month of February used to primarily be known for three things: Valentine’s Day, Presidents Day and the Super Bowl (congratulations, Philly fans!). Oh, and frigid winters in the northeast which this former New Yorker-turned-Floridian does not miss one bit. But February has stepped it up even more, because now it is both National Cancer Prevention Month AND American Heart Month!
