The hidden danger in flying 
the airlines don’t tell you about

A lot of people look forward to retirement so they can travel the world. It’s a great time to visit all those places you always dreamed of visiting. But there’s a danger in traveling you need to know about. And, if you take the right inexpensive nutrient, you can travel worry free.

When you fly, the airplane takes you into altitudes you normally would never experience. Most people don’t realize that these high altitudes have very high levels of ionizing radiation (the damaging kind of radiation, much like nuclear). That means you expose your body to dangerous radiation every time you go up in a plane.

This supplement allows you to
exercise less and drop more weight

You probably know that exercise is necessary to stay in shape and drop excess weight. You have to burn more calories than you consume. I’ve always recommended a low-calorie diet, so you don’t have to exercise so hard. But when you do exercise, there’s a way you can make it more effective in burning fat. (That means you can exercise less.) A new study says a particular supplement can supercharge your fat-burning exercise routine.

This supplement is the bioflavonoid capsaicin, which is in hot red pepper. In the new study, researchers gave 20 subjects 2 mg of microencapsulated capsaicin daily. They found that it improved markers associated with weight loss. In particular, free fatty acids went up with exercise, making them available for combustion. This is a chemical process that’s necessary for removing fat from your body.

Reduce your risk of hard-to-treat
atrial fibrillation by 28%

In the April issue of Real Cures, I reported on one of the newly discovered dangers of low cholesterol. It’s a heart arrhythmia called atrial fibrillation. But low cholesterol is not the only cause of this hard-to-treat condition. A new study says not taking a particular supplement will contribute to the condition.

The medical journal Circulation recently published a study that looked at 4,815 adults. All of them were over 65 years old. The researchers assessed these folks for the next 12 years to determine their dietary intake of fish oil.
