Vit D To Boost Your Weight Loss Benefits

Grounding, Healthy Weight, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

Vitamin D boosts the health benefits of weight loss! By simply adding Vitamin D supplementation to your weight loss plan, you reduce your whole-body inflammation, a new study suggests (published April 23, 2015 in Cancer Prevention Research.) High levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine Interleukin (IL)-6 have been linked to increased risk of developing devastating illness including cancer… as chronic inflammation is thought to be a pro-tumor state for the body.

Turns out, cushioning does more harm than good for the dynamics of your foot, luring you into

How Long Does It Take For Earthing Help Your Body?

Grounding, Health Videos, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

I notice in medicine and healthcare in general there is a lot of pressure on the patient to do things a certain way. It causes undue stress that is just NOT necessary. The classic example is exercise — patients are told to exercise three times a week for an hour each time and as a result, when they simply can’t find an hour to exercise they don’t do it at all. And that’s so wrong, because as I reported here, *anything* is sooo much better than nothing. Literally, just standing up from your chair and sitting right

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

A study recently released in Frontiers In Psychology on Jan 21, 2015 shows that meditation may actually slow age-related brain atrophy. Long-term meditators, examined under MRI imaging, were found to have less gray matter loss WIDESPREAD throughout the brain, when compared to controls who did not meditate.
