In mice with Alzheimer’s, the course of menthol for a six-month-long period was enough to stop the cognitive abilities and memory capabilities of the mice from deteriorating. In addition, it appears menthol pushed the IL-1β protein back to safe levels in the brain.

…one common ingredient in sun lotions is homosalate – found in Banana Boat’s children’s sunscreens and Sport Ultra, as well as Hawaiian Tropic’s Weightless Hydration sunscreen.
Homosalate is a UV ray filter, and while it protects against the sun, it acts as a potential endocrine system-disruptor, with some studies suggesting it messes with hormones.
In particular, homosalate impacts the estrogen system, which could cause breast cancer cells to grow and multiply.

From UK’s DR TESS LAWRIE, MBBCH, PHD
Here are some of the TOP TIPS I gleaned from Monday’s WCH Panel that cost next to nothing:
* Minimise exposure to environmental toxins, including exposure to digital devices, biocides, GMOs, fluoride, plastics, and other chemicals.
* Eliminate processed food and drink clean water.
* Avoid sugar!
* Eat fermented food, like kimchi and miso, and traditionally grown food (non-GMO, non-biocide). You can make loads of kimchi or sauerkraut at home for little more that the cost of a cabbage!
* If you eat meat, have meat-free detox periods of two to three weeks a few times a year.
* Do intermittent fasting. This can have health benefits with a fasting window of as little as 14 hours a day.
* Use heat therapies, like far-infrared, sauna, aerobic exercise and sunbathing, to detoxify fat-soluble toxins, and wash off afterwards.
* Get plenty of sleep. Good sleep is unbelievably healing!
* Have regular Epsom salts or salt baths.
* Reduce stress through mindfulness, prayer, meditation and gratitude.
* Have time in Nature every day and as much as possible and get plenty of sunshine.
* Make detoxifying teas and infusions from dandelion and nettles, Nature’s ‘weeds’, and drink at least 3 cups a day.
* Take plenty of vitamin C in fresh fruit and supplement forms. (I make a warm drink with 1g vitamin C powder and a quarter teaspoon of ground ginger two or three times a day.)

We are becoming accustomed to unexpected death after COVID-19 among young persons who have taken one or more injections of the COVID-19 vaccine. It is important to realize that not all deaths after vaccination are cardiac.
