Sep 30, 2012 - In a recent article published in the Guardian (originally available on his personal website) George Monbiot looked at recent scientific evidence suggesting a link between 'junk food' and Alzheimer's disease (1). Many studies show that sugar can have devastating effects on metabolism that go way beyond its calorie content (1). Since neurons that fire together wire The scientific research reviewed thus far in this piece does not appear to demonstrate any significant destructive effects on the brain by exposure to pornography per se, but rather by addiction in general, pornography serving as a case in point. Jan 15, 2014 - Processed foods are the main reason why people all over the world are getting fat and sick. We look at the potential devastating consequences of climate change and peak oil, and wonder why people can't seem to change, even if they accept that a cliff is ahead. Very exciting stuff, epigenetics, the affects of grain particularly glutten on our brain, and how mediation and introspection can change our brain and behavior. This malleability means we can either develop our emotional world properly or not and risk serious consequences. May 22, 2014 - Indigenous people are the 4th most likely population in the world to suffer from diabetes type 2.

Feb 4, 2014 - We can say our brains are highly malleable; if we expose an infant to abuse or neglect, the emotional systems may be changed semi-permanently (Perry, 1994). This was easy For some genes, even a small change in the level of DNA methylation at a few cytosine and guanosine sites might subtly alter gene expression and increase the risk of disease. Indeed…food actually regulates the expression of many of our genes.
