In a remarkable case published by Frontiers in Nutrition (June 24, 2025), Moira Newiss, a UK-based nutritional therapy practitioner, recounts how a client with chronic schizophrenia achieved full remission following a strict carnivore‑ketogenic dietary protocol .
Insulin resistance lies at the heart of a metabolic cascade that can culminate in type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, kidney failure, and more. Dr. Éric Thorin’s insightful article emphasizes that the combination of excess dietary fat—particularly visceral adiposity—and sugar intake triggers inflammatory processes in the body, disrupting normal glucose regulation .
Few debates in modern nutrition science are as heated as this: is calorie restriction (CR) or carbohydrate restriction (LCHF) more effective for improving health and extending lifespan? The original article thoughtfully reviewed the evidence and concluded, quite cautiously, that both approaches have merits and limitations. But if we take a broader, more critical perspective, there

I don’t know whether there is a spate of gallbladder problems doing the rounds, or whether there is just a lot of interest in this little organ, but I’m getting quite a lot of mail and messages asking me to cover it. So let’s look at the gallbladder.
A refusal to embrace simplicity in taste — and an unbridled craving for sweetness — is a deeply concerning phenomenon. Perhaps fueled by the influence of popular culture, we have come to equate all feelings of joy with the word sweet. From early childhood, as the human brain develops, the equation of happiness with sweetness

💔 What is heart failure? Let’s start with the basics: Heart failure doesn’t mean your heart has “stopped” — it means your heart has become weak and inefficient. It can’t pump enough blood to supply your body properly. This is a chronic condition, and it often keeps getting worse if not managed well.
Introduction: A Nutrient We Cannot Overlook Vitamin D — sometimes called the “sunshine vitamin” — is unlike most other nutrients. Technically a prohormone, it is synthesized in the skin upon UVB light exposure and converted into an active hormone that regulates a wide range of biological functions. For decades, vitamin D was mainly associated with

Conventional approaches rely on adding more medication or insulin, which masks symptoms but does not address the root problem: insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction—both driven by high carbohydrate intake.
Insulin resistance is a metabolic condition in which the body’s cells respond less effectively to the hormone insulin. Insulin is crucial for regulating blood sugar (glucose) levels, as it helps cells absorb glucose from the bloodstream for energy. When cells become insensitive to insulin, the body requires higher insulin levels to maintain blood sugar, leading

Experts recommend that males consume 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of water daily and females 11.5 cups (2.7 liters). But environmental factors such as temperature and other health conditions may affect your water needs.
Salt — primarily composed of sodium chloride — is one of the most fundamental nutrients for human health and survival. Though often vilified in public health campaigns, salt is not merely a seasoning; it is a biological necessity. It supports essential processes ranging from nerve signaling to digestion, fluid regulation, and even food preservation. Yet,
