For the last 15 years or so I’ve been an avid sauna fan (some might say addict!) and go nearly every day. Here’s a few reasons why I think saunas are fantastic for all-round health & recreation. Read more ›

Your body has many cells, parts, and systems and many of them are held together with collagen. The most abundant protein in your body is all about connection and strength. That’s because collagen’s adhesive qualities are only matched by its ability to provide structure and strength.
This impressive protein deserves a lot of discussion. From collagen and skin to its production process, what follows are all the facts you need to know about collagen. Thirty to be exact. (It’s so important, a list of 10 or even 25 just wouldn’t do.)
Gold compounds have been used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases for more than 75 years, but until now, how the metals work has been a mystery. Harvard Medical School researchers report in the Feb. 27 issue of Nature Chemical Biology that special forms of gold, platinum, and other classes of medicinal metals work by stripping bacteria and virus particles from the grasp of a key immune system protein.
“We were searching for a new drug to treat autoimmune diseases,” says Brian DeDecker, PhD, Read more ›
It has been becoming increasingly apparent in recent years that there are a number of alternative cancer treatment methods which have proven to either eradicate cancer cells on their own, or even assist with the more traditional methods of chemotherapy and radiation. Many of these alternative treatments do not get the recognition that they deserve from either mainstream media or mainstream medicine. In fact, in many states alternative cancer treatments have been banned or made illegal and, according to the law, one can even be forced to undergo chemotherapy against one’s will. Read more ›
What is MSM?
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), also known as dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2) and methyl sulfone, is an organic sulfur-containing compound that is essential for optimal health. Without sufficient MSM sulfur, your body cannot maintain an appropriate level of homeostasis. Read more ›
Activated charcoal is a fine, odourless, black powder often used in emergency rooms to treat overdoses. Its toxin-absorbing properties have a wide range of medicinal and cosmetic uses, though none are scientifically proven.
Superheating natural sources of carbon, such as wood, produces activated charcoal. The black powder stops toxins from being absorbed in the stomach by binding to them. The body is unable to absorb charcoal, and so the toxins that bind to the charcoal leave the body in the faeces. Read more ›
Retinyl palmitate is a form of vitamin A and is proven to improve mottled pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, skin texture, skin tone and color, as well as your skins hydration levels. It has a molecular structure that’s tiny enough to get into the lower layers of skin where it finds collagen and elastin and activates them. Read more ›

Abstract
Iodine is an essential element in human physiology. Its role in thyroid function is well known and heavily weighted in the literature. Its putative role as an anticarcinogenic agent is just beginning to be widely appreciated. The molecular effects of iodine as well as ongoing epidemiological evidence points to its probable role in prevention of cancers through its antioxidant, antiinflammatory, prodifferentiating, and proapoptotic effects. This is particularly evident with stomach and breast cancers but may be relevant for many other cancers that have yet to be substantially studied. Read more ›
You may remember seeing Dasa‘s amazing response from Miracle Pain Away/Pain Away gel last week on our Youtube channel. He has very kindly gifted the Foundation some finest Shilajit, or ‘Mountain Tar’ from the Himalaya. It contains a large amount of fulvic acid and is widely believed to be a pancea of the highest order in Ayurvedic medicine. Indeed there is a saying ‘If a disease cannot be cured, Shilajit will cure it’. It’s generally taken with milk, has a very acrid taste and gives a monstrous boost to energy! Last time I took some I felt like running up some flights of stairs. Just a tiny amount, the size of 2 grains of rice, is all that’s needed. I have 5 packs available @ £20/20g. Profits go to the Penzance Catnip Charity, providing grade-A catnip to local cats and cats of customers who request a free bag of it with their order.
