A look at a breakthrough breast cancer theory and the remarkable evidence to support itBreast cysts and cancer are epidemic at this time in history. The healthcare industry says that the cause of 70 percent of all breast cancer is unknown. Dressed to Kill helps solve this mystery, explaining how one of the greatest threats to breast health is something that women do to themselves every day. This book has its roots in a personal crisis in the authors lives, when Soma Grismaijer was shocked to find a lump in her breast while pregnant. Looking for clues regarding the cause of the lump led this husband-and-wife medical anthropology team to develop a new theory and to conduct an extensive survey of nearly 5,000 US women, half of whom had breast cancer, in an attempt to uncover a hidden cause of this devastating disease.Pioneers in the new field of applied medical anthropology, Singer and Grismaijer explain their unique approach to researching and understanding the cultural causes of disease in easy-to-read language that is accessible to the layperson and professional alike. Dressed to Kill has already had an impact on the healthcare and fashion worlds, moving some doctors to rethink the prevention and treatment of breast disease and some clothing designers to rethink their products. Controversial for its challenge to established custom and medical dogma, this breakthrough book is a classic. The updated third edition continues to suggest new ways of dealing with an old and all-too-common womens health issue and includes:"If Breasts Could Talk": extensive testimonials and results from the International Bra-Free Study, revealing the health transformations women experience when they go bra-free New international research: supporting studies from Kenya, China, Iran, and Brazil that mainstream medical institutions continue to ignore Biomechanical research: new evidence on health impacts of tight clothing and lymphatic compression Documentation of modern censorship: examples of how AI systems and online encyclopedias suppress research challenging medical orthodoxy

Introduces the scientifically validated method of pineal gland activation, which promotes cellular rebirth, decreases aging, and improves well-being Explores the impact of light, sound, and nutraceuticals on pineal functioning, looking at concepts like photobiomodulation and the role of lutein in human eyes Draws upon ancient Egyptian and Sumerian knowledge of light and the eye, including the ability to harness the healing powers of sunlightThe pineal gland, a part of the endocrine system, is less than a centimeter long. Yet this tiny organ in the brain plays an outsized role in spiritual traditions as it is widely connected with the esoteric concept of the third eye.Ophthalmologist Roberto Pinelli explains his unique methods for using a combination of light, sound, and nutraceuticals to non-invasively activate the pineal gland to promote cellular rejuvenation, decrease aging, and improve overall well-being. Pinellis method, supported by case studies and peer-reviewed research, centers on using photons to convey vibrational energy through the eyes to targeted areas of the body. He shows the potent effects this has on mental health as it can improve memory, mental clarity, and self-awareness. It also has positive effects on the body such as helping to heal degenerative diseases like osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and Parkinsons.Pinelli explores Egyptian, Sumerian, and Aztec understandings of the sun and its life-giving rays, looking at how ancient knowledge has been corroborated by contemporary scientific findings. The author details how the pineal gland functions, particularly its role in melatonin regulation. He also offers methods to reduce pineal calcification and regenerate overall mental and physical health.Awakening the Pineal Gland is a unique fusion of ancient and modern science that offers readers a practical guide on using light as a medicine to activate your higher nature.

Into that void has stepped a massive wellness industry offering seductive promises of controloptimize, detox, biohackoften without evidence and with real risks.McBride refuses the false choice between conventional medicine and wellness culture. Instead, she offers a practical middle path built on health agency: the capacity to make informed decisions aligned with your values while advocating effectively for support. This book isnt prescriptive or perfectionist. Its a framework to help you navigate uncertainty, misinformation, and the realities of your life.At the center is a five-step process that moves you from redefining health on your own terms, through mapping your full health ecosystem and understanding how you personally approach care, to asking for help more effectively and making peace with what you cannot control.McBride then maps health as an interconnected ecosystem with four pillars:-INFORMATICS (health data + your biography and lived context)-INPUTS (everything you consume, including supplements and medications)-INFRASTRUCTURE (movement, injury, disability, and the body that carries you)-INSIGHT (mental health, brain health, and the unconscious stories that drive behavior)Reflection and action guides help you translate insight into real-world decisions.The result is a practical, evidence-based guide for anyone navigating the question too rarely asked in health care: Are you okay?

An urgent and profound history of vaccine skepticism, seeking to understand how our three most common fears about vaccines hardened into a lethal ideologyfrom a leading science writerBrimming with righteous anger, this book should infuriate you for all the right reasons, and arm you to take on the grifters and their war against science.Adam Rutherford, author of A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived: The Human Story Retold Through Our GenesSince the advent of smallpox inoculation in the eighteenth century, the idea that a disease introduced to the body in some lesser, weakened form might prevent full-blown infection has been one of the greatest public health insights of the modern era, inspiring the invention of numerous vaccines and saving countless human lives. But, just as humanity acquired the god-like power to stop infectious disease in its tracks, some feared we had gone too far, leading to the skepticism that has hijacked public health discourse today.In three sweeping essays written for our current moment of scientific mistrust, Thomas Levenson searches for the origins of the most common arguments against vaccines: that they are unnatural; that they are more dangerous than the illnesses they claim to prevent; and that they are an affront to freedom. Each arose from the earliest development of particular vaccines and the campaigns to distribute them. Even as the pattern repeats, Levenson reveals how innocent that skepticism initially was and, in each case, how very human fears and questions ultimately turned into something darker, where no truth would be enough to overcome the doubt.Searing but ultimately empathetic, A Pox on Fools explores the human impulse to question and wondersometimes past the point at which the very act of questioning turns deadly.

If Big Pharma has shown these plants fight cancer, shouldnt you know about them?Cancer is still a leading cause of death worldwide. In 2025, over two million new cancer cases were reported in the US alone, and unfortunately, that number is expected to climb significantly within the next decade. The most common new cases here are breast, lung, colorectal, and prostate cancers, and yes, there are medical treatments available for the vast majority of these cancers. The problem is, however, that over 600,000 people will die of their cancer. That is why many pharmaceutical companies continue to look for better, more effective treatments for these various cancers. While that sounds encouraging, their vision of finding a cure may be shortsightedand heres why.Natural compounds and chemicals found in plants have long been a cornerstone in drug discovery based on how the plants make them and their biological activity, including how they can selectively target just cancer cells without much toxicity to healthy cells. Many successful anti-cancer drugs in use today, such as vincristine, paclitaxel, and etoposide, originated from natural chemicals found in plants. The problem is that when the anti-cancer chemical compounds found in plants work, the pharmaceutical research must be able to reproduce these chemicals in a laboratory so that they can be patented by the drug company. Many times, anti-cancer plant compounds are found to work against cancer cells with few, if any, side effects. However, because the researchers are unable to reproduce these chemicals in their laboratory, the research is dropped. The researchers are forced to move on to another compound that can work as wellbut this time, can be reproduced and patented.Instead of waiting for the next-generation of anti-cancer drugs, Dr. Taylor has gathered thirteen of the most effective rainforest plants containing these active chemicals that have already been shown to target cancer cells. Whether used separately or in combinations, published research shows just how effective these chemical compounds can be. This book is designed to help readers understand how these compounds work and how they can be used directly to fight cancers.
