We all know the importance of regular exercise and the crucial impact it has on our mental, physical, and emotional health. Despite all of these benefits, some days you just don’t have time to squeeze in a workout.
Thankfully, new studies have shown that walking at least fifteen minutes every day can add seven years to your life. One study followed sixty-nine people between the ages of 30-60 and found that those who engaged in daily moderate exercise, such as walking, experienced anti-aging benefits. So, if you know you won’t be able to do your regular workout due to an early morning meeting, taking a 15-minute walk on your lunch break or after dinner could get you the same benefits.
The following findings are from three Harvard studies on walking and cardiovascular health:
Among 10,269 male graduates of Harvard College, walking at least nine miles a week was linked to a 22% lower death rate.
Among 44,452 male health professionals, walking at least 30 minutes a day was linked to an 18% lower risk of coronary artery disease.
Among 72,488 female nurses, walking at least three hours a week was linked to a 35% lower risk of heart attack and cardiac death and a 34% lower risk of stroke.
This plant, known as Cilantro, Chinese parsley or coriander, is often used in Mexican and Asian cuisine and offers innumerable health benefits. It is an excellent plant that can help prevent many diseases. It can reduce blood pressure, improve digestion and prevent inflammation. It has strong antibacterial properties, especially when it is in the form of oil, which is obtained from the seed of this plant (coriander oil).

Did you have “wild measles” as a kid, not the measles strain found in Big Pharma measles vaccines?
I certainly did; that was in the 1940s, when Moms took their kids to “measles parties” so their children could contract a childhood “rite of passage,” immune system strengthening, infectious disease to acquire life-long immunity.
I had an itchy rash; looked like a polka-dotted kid; stayed home from school for a week of fun with board games, plus eating anything I wanted, so my little body could have enough nutrition to heal as quickly as possible. Proper nutrition, sewer sanitation, potable water and refrigeration were responsible for the demise of most communicable infectious diseases in the USA, since those diseases ‘disappeared’ before vaccines were invented. However, those diseases currently are ‘rampant’ in countries were those infrastructures are lacking. Thus the frightening disease statistics HHS/CDC/FDA like to scare people with.
By the way, most of those childhood diseases apparently were about fine-tuning kids’ developing immune systems, in my opinion. Nature obviously designed those diseases to provide life-long immunities, which could be passed down from Mother to Child during pregnancy and birth, something now denied due to what’s called “adaptive response immunity” supposedly provided by modern-day vaccines, which is an oxymoron.
As I write this Op-Ed, I checked the stats for measles in the USA, which were 981 cases as of June 3, 2019. Heck, 981 measles cases, back when I was a kid, was ‘nothing’. Almost every child contracted measles during the springtime of each year. It was expected; Moms prepared for it and knew how to treat it; not today!
“Before widespread use of the measles vaccine, an estimated 3 to 4 million people got measles each year in the United States, along with an estimated 400 to 500 deaths and 48,000 hospitalizations,” the CDC said. https://www.usnews.com/news/national-news/articles/2019-06-03/number-of-measles-cases-in-us-981
[However, can we really trust and believe those CDC stats, when we know about CDC’s fraudulent practices involving consensus science; vested interest in the vaccine patents CDC and FDA own; and Big Pharma’s hoodwinking the U.S. Congress into passing the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, which basically was a bailout from product liability lawsuits.]
“The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) of 1986 (42 U.S.C. §§ 300aa-1 to 300aa-34) was signed into law by United States President Ronald Reagan as part of a larger health bill on Nov 14, 1986.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Childhood_Vaccine_Injury_Act
What’s happened?
What’s happened is Big Pharma has been able to bang their “kettle drums of propaganda” so as to drown out most real science as published in authentic medical journals, which never is taken seriously by federal health agencies, e.g., HHS, CDC and FDA, but in favor of consensus science, the current “gold standard” at CDC/FDA. Who are the CDC and FDA supposed to be working for: corporations or citizens’ wellbeing?
One of the more dramatically interesting vaccinology facts is the measles vaccine was ‘invented’
In 1963, John Enders and colleagues transformed their Edmonston-B strain of measles virus into a vaccine and licensed it in the United States. In 1968, an improved and even weaker measles vaccine, developed by Maurice Hilleman and colleagues [at Merck & Co.], began to be distributed.
However, two charts below graphically tell a dichotomous story when it comes to vaccines taking credit for eliminating various diseases.

Preliminary findings from a new study reveal that inadequate fruit and vegetable consumption may account for millions of deaths from heart disease and strokes each year. The study estimated that roughly 1 in 7 cardiovascular deaths could be attributed to not eating enough fruit and 1 in 12 cardiovascular deaths could be attributed to not eating enough vegetables.
Low fruit intake resulted in nearly 1.8 million cardiovascular deaths in 2010, while low vegetable intake resulted in 1 million deaths, according to researchers. Overall, the toll of suboptimal fruit intake was almost double that of vegetables. The impacts were most acute in countries with the lowest average intakes of fruits and vegetables.
“Fruits and vegetables are a modifiable component of diet that can impact preventable deaths globally,” said lead study author Victoria Miller, a postdoctoral researcher at the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University. “Our findings indicate the need for population-based efforts to increase fruit and vegetable consumption throughout the world.”
Many people take statins with the aim of improving their health, but these drugs come with so many side effects that they’re often not worth taking. Long under fire for their lack of results and their role in raising the risk of diabetes, yet another reason has emerged for avoiding these drugs: They can cause the deadly disorder ALS.
ALS, which stands for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a nervous system disorder that causes progressive muscle strength loss that is irreversible. Also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, it cause nerve cells within the spinal cord and brain that control your voluntary muscles to die. It may start with weakness in one leg or arm and speech changes before leading to muscle twitching and eventually preventing people from moving, speaking, eating and breathing. There is no cure, and the disease is fatal
And here are some snippets from a video I am part way through watching:
Seniors with a HIGHER level of cholesterol have a 70% LOWER risk of dementia! The brain is 60% fat and much of that is cholesterol. 25% of the cholesterol in your body is in your brain. “If you deprive cholesterol from the brain then you directly affect the machinery that triggers the release of neurotransmitters… …and neurotransmitters affect how smart you are and how well you remember things.” A recent MIT paper showed a clear link between statin drugs and Alzheimer’s disease. The author wrote, “not having enough cholesterol in your brain plays a critical role in the (Alzheimer’s) disease process.” A high cholesterol diet improved brain function in Alzheimer’s patients.
