Overlooked Virus Killer
Sales of vitamin C supplements have tripled in the last few weeks… And the most powerful kind of vitamin C is sold out on Amazon. (More on that in a minute.)

You see, absorption — or bioavailability — is an issue, and your body can only absorb about 500 mg of this conventional form of vitamin C before you hit saturation. And that’s nowhere near enough. In a moment I’ll show you a better form of vitamin C… and how you can take ...

Approaches to Eating and Drinking with Acknowledged Risk: A Systematic Review
ConclusionThere is a paucity of evidence to determine if EDAR protocols improve care. However, support is emerging for a coordinated approach to managing EDAR.

Educational interventions on nutrition among older adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials
Unhealthy food habits are associated with non-communicable diseases (NCD) [1 –3] and nutritional deficiencies [4]. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) [5], more than half of all deaths were due to ten main causes, with the leading killers being ischaemic heart disease and stroke. Diets characterized by a low intake of fruit and vegetable (FV) and fibre increas e the risk of hypertension, diabetes mellitus (DM), obesity, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), gastrointestinal cancers, nutritional deficiencies, pancreatic diseases, depression and the development of cognitive impairment and dementia [4–7].

In this guideline, the Clinical Question number 17 is as ‘‘When and how should patients with Parkinson's dis ease be screened for dysphagia?’’. As an answer to this question, in Recommendation number 24 they recommended to screen dysphagia in all patients with Parkinson's disease with a Hoehn& Yahr ‘‘stage above II’’ or weight loss, low BMI, drooli...
