Both inorganic and organic forms of mercury are highly toxic to humans; however, inorganic mercury is not as easily absorbed by the body. Inorganic mercury, such as mercury vapor, is toxic if inhaled in large concentrations and can cause acute pneumonia. Inhaled gaseous mercury is absorbed into the blood.

The featured study found the following nutrients to have a beneficial impact on telomere length:

• Vitamin B12
• Zinc
• Vitamin D
• Omega-3
• Vitamin C
• Vitamin E

Below, I will review a few of those, plus several additional recommendations for what I believe are among the most important nutrients to maintain and promote telomere lengthening.

Ladies, we all know those moments when we feel angry, frustrated and emotional, sometimes for no apparent reason. Often we blame this on our hormones. And that’s not just a lame excuse, no matter what your partner says. Hormones, do in fact, play a very important role in women’s health and well being. When hormone levels fluctuate, this can impact on your mood, sexual desire, fertility and ovulation.

High-intensity exercise can reap numerous health benefits, and combining it with intermittent fasting takes your fitness up a notch. Properly done, intermittent fasting will enhance your metabolism, fat-burning, and human growth hormone (HGH) production.

There are many considerations to remember when you exercise in a fasted state. This infographic on intermittent fasting provides a recommended schedule and eating to follow, as well as other fasting tips to use.

When your heart and/or other parts of your cardiovascular system, such as your blood vessels, are not properly cared for, they will fail to function properly, which may lead to certain health issues.*

But the good news is you can maintain normal cardiovascular function by eating a healthy diet and exercising correctly. Here are some of my top recommendations:

                              
Genetically modified foods (or GM foods) are foods produced from organisms that have had specific changes introduced into their DNA using the methods of Genetic Engineering . These techniques have allowed for the introduction of new traits as well as a far greater control over a food's genetic structure than previously afforded by methods such as selective breeding and mutation breeding.

What You Must Know About the Latest Vaccine Safety Review by IOM

The review focused on eight vaccines:

•Hepatitis A-hepatitis B

• Measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine

•Meningococcal vaccine

• Pneumococcal vaccine

• Diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis, also known as DTaP or Tdap

•Varicella zoster (chickenpox)

•HPV vaccine

• Influenza vaccine

Dr. Stephanie Seneff discusses her research into vaccines and neurological damage. In 2012, she published a study10 linking symptoms of autism to aluminum adjuvants and acetaminophen exposure. According to the abstract:

"Our results provide strong evidence supporting a link between autism and the aluminum in vaccines. A literature review showing toxicity of aluminum in human physiology offers further support. Mentions of autism in VAERS increased steadily at the end of the last century, during a period when mercury was being phased out, while aluminum adjuvant burden was being increased.
