Pharmaceutical waste: Over 25% of rivers worldwide contaminated with potentially toxic levels of prescription drugs
A new study has found that more than a quarter of the world’s rivers contain potentially toxic levels of over-the-counter and prescription drugs. The study published in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences looked at the presence of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in the world’s rivers. Researchers involved in the study found concentrations of […]

Pharmaceutical contamination of rivers more widespread than previously known, study finds
Pharmaceutical manufacturing sites are among the primary contributors of drug contamination that has polluted rivers all over the world, according to a U.K. study. Moreover, it was found that pharmaceutical contamination of rivers is significantly more widespread than initially assumed, and it now constitutes a worldwide hazard to the environment and human health. A group […]

The SHOCKING truth about antacids and their effect on your gut health
Acid-reducing agents (ARAs) like antacids and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are some of the most common medications prescribed for the treatment of heartburn. A recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition found that long-term use of PPIs leads to a decrease in the amount of Faecalibacterium, one of the most beneficial bacteria in the human gut. Long-term […]

Big Pharma’s prescription drugs a threat to humanity: Antibiotic overuse is why we’re now dealing with deadly superbugs
Antibiotics were initially developed to save human lives from deadly infections and diseases. But extreme overuse by the farming industry has led to the appearance of antibiotic-resistant superbugs that cannot be treated. Since Alexander Fleming came across penicillin in 1928, it and other antibiotics have saved many lives from diseases such as cholera, meningitis, and tuberculosis. […]

It’s not just pesticides that are wiping out bee pollinators… scientists now find that ANTIBIOTICS have a 50% kill rate of honey bees
Antibiotic treatment may actually do more harm than good for honeybees, according to a recent study. Beekeepers spray honeybee colonies with antibiotics to help stave off foul brood. This treatment is typically done to beehives several times a year to prevent bacterial infections that may damage the larvae. To test the effects of antibiotics on honeybees, […]

Antibiotics kill good bacteria and may worsen oral infections
The harmful effects of antibiotics have long been observed, and yet medical professionals continue to prescribe them even for mild infections. One of the complications that arise from the overuse of antibiotics includes the disruption of the body’s microflora, which is involved in a large portion of immune functions. This was proven to be true by […]

Shocking research: Prozac could be driving the antibiotic resistance crisis
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) calls antibiotic resistance “a global threat” and “one of the biggest public health challenges of our time.” Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria and other germs develop the ability to beat the antibiotic drugs designed to kill them. Infections caused by these pathogens can be difficult – or […]

Relying on proton-pump inhibitors to relieve heartburn can leave you vulnerable to superbugs
Proton pump inhibitors are used by millions of people looking for heartburn relief, but new evidence shows that these drugs may come at an unexpected cost. Microbiologists from Plymouth Hospitals NHS Trust have found that patients taking proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are at markedly greater risk of catching drug-resistant bacterial infections. With drug-resistant microbes now pushing […]

Kidney stones are debilitating and painful masses of calcium oxalate or other compounds which can be small enough to pass unnoticed through the urinary tract, or as large as golf balls, causing excruciating pain as they leave the body. Recent research has indicated a 70 percent increase in prevalence of kidney stones over the past […]
