Cut your risk of aggressive prostate cancer by 40% with a simple, inexpensive nutrient

Want a simple and inexpensive way to prevent prostate cancer? This is something I have been advocating for years. It is also something that I myself take. I learned about it about 10 years ago. But now a new study is confirming it, and is offering us a way to make sure we are doing it right.

The study comes out of the Norwich Medical School in the United Kingdom. The researchers looked at the results of 12 different studies done on a total of 13,254 men. They were specifically looking at blood levels of selenium.

Fight the common cold and osteoporosis with the same vitamin

If you have osteoporosis, there are two very inexpensive supplements you need to be taking. The first one might surprise you – and the second you may not know much about.

Several years ago, I told you that researchers were able to protect mice that had their ovaries removed against osteoporosis with glutathione. Loss of estrogen increases inflammation in bone. That leads to mineral loss. Glutathione reduces that particular inflammation. But a new study showed that there's another supplement that works as well as glutathione.

Take this herb to stop the ravages of diabetes

If you have any liver problems or if you're pre-diabetic, there's an herb you need to take to really protect your liver and even prevent diabetes. A new study shows just how effective it can be.

In this nine-month study on humans, researchers followed 240 adults with pre-diabetes. They gave a daily dose of curcumin to see if it would prevent them from moving into full-blown type-2 diabetes. Then they randomly assigned the participants to take either curcumin capsules or a placebo.
