Get in charge of electromagnetic fields

By Shari Cheves on June 3rd, 2016%

Working on a computer every day is tough enough without thinking about electromagnetic fields (EMFs). Yet our exposure to EMFs increases every year, much faster than we can understand how it changes our body chemistry. Just last week, the National Toxicology Program reported partial findings of heart and brain tumors in rats exposed to . . . → Read More: Get in charge of electromagnetic fields

Double agents in medicine

By Shari Cheves on September 28th, 2013%

My ongoing research of allergy and autoimmune disease has uncovered a long history of medical manipulations that defy logic. Even my seasonal allergies have been quelled with homeopathic dilutions of dust, mold, and pollen. Allergy immunotherapy is intriguingly similar, exposing us to daily, increasing amounts of allergens that slowly reprogram our immune system. In any . . . → Read More: Double agents in medicine

The many faces of histamine intolerance

By Shari Cheves on December 17th, 2012%

I am astounded at how many of us unknowingly suffer from excess histamine. Some of us itch or sneeze while others get headaches, migraines, joint pain, or nausea – within minutes or several hours after exposure! Our “histamine bucket” fills up based on factors such as genetics, allergies, medication, diet, environment, nutritional deficiencies, intestinal damage, . . . → Read More: The many faces of histamine intolerance

A Dandruff Whodunit

By Shari Cheves on April 19th, 2012%

Most of us brush off dandruff* as a cosmetic problem, spending hundreds of millions of dollars on commercial products to stop the flakes. Dandruff, or seborrheic dermatitis (SD),affects up to 50% of the population and appears linked to fungal/yeast growth that results in itching, inflammation, and even occasional hair loss. Yet a deeper investigation . . . → Read More: A Dandruff Whodunit

Count your z’s to better sleep

By Shari Cheves on February 2nd, 2012%

Sleep may be the single most important factor of health – and one of the least understood. Without rejuvenating sleep, we cannot effectively think, act, or fight diseases. Short or poor quality sleep is linked to obesity, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Up to 90% of adults with depression have trouble with sleep. Yet we . . . → Read More: Count your z’s to better sleep

Who knows it’s all in the NOse?

By Shari Cheves on December 31st, 2011%

How you breathe may be just as important as what you breathe. My final report of the year reveals my biggest discovery of the year – something that increases chronic disease, facial aging, bad breath, cavities, poor concentration, poor immunity, and poor sleep. Something you can prevent!

Several months ago I decided to tackle my . . . → Read More: Who knows it’s all in the NOse?

Celiac and bacteria: strange breadfellows

By Shari Cheves on August 18th, 2011%

While managing celiac disease for the last three years, I repeatedly hear the same question – “Why?” Millions of stomachs are growling for answers. Sit down for a gourmet dish on an epidemic that hits close to home.

Celiac disease is the presentation of a deeper, self-destructive autoimmune condition experienced by 2 million . . . → Read More: Celiac and bacteria: strange breadfellows

Caffeinated coffee: a cup of contradiction

By Shari Cheves on June 24th, 2011%

There have been rumors that caffeine in coffee can prevent diabetes. This is a pretty tall order (or should I say venti?) for roasted seeds. With diabetes rates climbing alongside America’s coffee addiction, it seems impossible. After pouring through hundreds of studies on disease risk and prevention, I found one common theme around caffeine: it’s . . . → Read More: Caffeinated coffee: a cup of contradiction

Radiation protection from nutrition & herbs

By Shari Cheves on March 18th, 2011%

The radiation scare in Japan has created quite a stir around the disaster-prone communities here in California. Some of my friends are asking about potassium iodide tablets and yes, I have always had a secret stash in the closet (from Anbex). We live a half-hour away from a nuclear power plant, and I like to . . . → Read More: Radiation protection from nutrition & herbs
