Protect Your Heart with Natural Vitamin A
Vitamin A is best known for helping you see better, especially at night.
But this often-overlooked nutrient has dozens of other health benefits. Your muscles, immune system, lungs, and kidneys all use it, and your liver stores it to use in an emergency.
And now scientists have discovered that vitamin A also activates a stockpile of previously unknown, heart-healing cells inside your pericardium, the fluid-filled sac that surrounds your heart.1,2

Find “ Ageless Skin ” with Vitamin B
A few days ago, one of my staff came to me in a bit of a panic… She’d taken a vitamin B3 supplement and was experiencing an extreme case of “niacin flush.”
I assured her that she’d be okay and advised her on how to avoid getting the flush moving forward.
Then we started talking about all the life-changing benefits of this important nutrient.
I’ve been prescribing niacin to my patients for decades. It’s an amazing heart health nutrient.
It could even put the billion-dollar statin industry out of business – if more doctors knew to prescribe it.
Unfortunately, most doctors have no idea of the power of vita...

Early Puberty Soared During the Pandemic, and Scientists Don ’ t Know Why
Italy noticed it first. It was the first country to lock down during the COVID-19 pandemic, and later in 2020, researchers at Florence’s Anna Meyer Children’s University Hospital were the first to point out a puzzling trend: More young girls than ever had been showing up to the hospital with clear signs of early-onset puberty.
The cases weren’t unique, but their frequency was. Since early-onset—or “precocious”—puberty first gained widespread clinical attention in the 1990s, it’s become steadily more common worldwide. Defined as the appearance of secondary sex charact...
