🤔🧠 A popular sugar substitute may not be as harmless as it seems.

New research from the University of Colorado Boulder shows that erythritol—a common sweetener found in many “sugar-free” and “keto” products—may alter brain blood vessel cells in ways that could increase the risk of stroke.

In lab tests, just one serving’s worth of erythritol caused blood vessels to constrict, reduced the production of natural clot-busting compounds, and increased levels of cell-damaging free radicals.

This could explain why a recent study involving 4,000 people found those with high levels of erythritol in their blood were more likely to suffer a heart attack or stroke in the following years.

Erythritol is FDA-approved, low in calories, and doesn’t spike blood sugar—traits that have made it popular among people managing diabetes or following low-carb diets. But this study highlights the need for caution. The researchers urge consumers to monitor their intake and read labels carefully.

While more human studies are needed, these early findings suggest that the cost of sugar-free sweetness may be higher than we thought.

Do you check labels for sweeteners like erythritol? What are your thoughts on these findings?

Statins are often prescribed to lower cholesterol, but more and more research is pointing to their potential risks. These medications can deplete vital nutrients, increase the risk of insulin resistance, and contribute to heart failure, muscle weakness, and even cognitive decline.

When it comes to managing cholesterol, there are natural alternatives and lifestyle changes that can have a lasting impact without the risks of side effects. Consider a healthier diet, more exercise, and stress management techniques to naturally support your heart health.

Be proactive with your health, and don’t settle for quick fixes that may harm you in the long run. 🧠❤️

The winter solstice invites us to pause and take a slow, cold breath.

As the longest night of the year, it’s a time for reflection, release, and quiet renewal.

Let go of what no longer serves you.
Honor how far you’ve come.
And set intentions for the light ahead.

Tonight, slow down. Journal. Breathe. Sit by the fire.
This is the season of stillness—and the start of something new.

Polyester is essentially plastic worn directly on the skin, and scientists are increasingly examining how that constant contact may affect human biology. Synthetic fabrics often contain additives like phthalates, which are already known to interfere with hormonal signaling.

Research suggests fertility effects may come from a combination of chemical exposure and physical factors. As polyester breaks down, it can shed microplastics that come into close contact with the skin and may enter the body through prolonged exposure.

Another factor under investigation is static electricity. Polyester fabrics generate persistent electrostatic fields, and early studies indicate these fields could subtly influence biological processes over time.

Animal studies, including experiments involving dogs, found reduced fertility during extended polyester exposure, with fertility returning once the garments were removed. While human data is still limited, these findings highlight the need for deeper research into everyday materials we often overlook.

Intense emotions can age your brain faster than you think.

Scientists have long known that uncontrolled anger changes the way your brain works. When you explode in rage, your body floods with cortisol and adrenaline. These stress chemicals shut down the prefrontal cortex, the part of your brain responsible for memory, decision making, emotional control, and empathy. You feel it as a surge, but inside your brain it looks like chaos. Neurons fire irregularly, communication weakens, and repeated episodes make it harder for these circuits to recover.

Chronic anger is even more damaging. Long term studies show that people who live with constant rage or hostility experience faster cognitive decline, smaller prefrontal cortex volume, and higher risk of anxiety and depression. It does not kill neurons in minutes, but it slowly erodes the brain’s ability to stay flexible and resilient. Stress becomes your default setting. Calm becomes harder to reach.

Here is the part that matters. Your brain is plastic. It can heal. Every moment you choose deep breathing, grounding, movement, or silence, you signal your nervous system to return to balance. You protect the circuits that shape your identity, your relationships, and the way you move through the world.

Your peace is not a personality trait. It is a daily practice that keeps your brain young.

It's always striking to see a side-by-side graph of the childhood vaccine schedule from when I was a baby (left) compared to what’s now recommended for my own children (right).

When people my age—or older, many of whom received just 3 vaccines in childhood—claim that “anti-vaxxers” will bring back deadly diseases, I’m genuinely stunned that they show no concern about how dramatically the schedule has expanded.

ESPECIALLY since this explosion in the number of vaccines began right after the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA), which removed liability from manufacturers, allowing them to develop and profit from as many vaccines as they wanted without legal accountability for injuries.

Maltodextrin is the WORST ingredient hiding in your food!

It’s a refined starchy carbohydrate made by artificially bonding a cluster of sugar molecules. It’s highly processed and typically used as a filler in a wide range of packaged and processed foods.

Manufacturers use maltodextrin as a sweetener without having to list it as sugar on nutrition labels, allowing them to claim that a food is sugar-free despite significantly impacting blood sugar levels.
