Walnuts and pecans are both healthy snacks with lots of benefits. Walnuts have more fat and more protein, while pecans have more fiber and more natural sugars. The fat in both pecans and walnuts consists predominantly of healthy fats like monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, as well as omega-3s. Both pecans and walnuts are good for brain health and rich in antioxidants. Their polyphenols help to protect the brain, while their healthy fats help to safeguard the heart and prevent atherosclerosis.

Key Takeaways:

• Pecans and walnuts might have differences in looks and taste, but they are very well regarded for their healthiness and great tastes.
• When one takes a serving of walnuts, he discovers that it contains more calories than an equal serving of pecans and this extra energy is stored in fats.
• The fats in walnuts are usually good fats which consist mostly of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, along with omega-3 fatty acids.

"Walnuts have the B vitamins choline and niacin, while pecans show tiny amounts of vitamin A."

The humble flaxseed could be called an "ancient grain", as it has been eaten in Babylon 3000 years before Christ. And while we don't know if they knew how healthy flaxseed can be for you, scientists now are learning a lot about it and feel that there are still more discovers to be uncovered. So far they know that flaxseed contain Omega 3, lignan and fibre, all of which can help improve heart and gut health.

Key Takeaways:

• Some of these new found foods have been proven to be very helpful to people with issues.
• There are a lot of different kinds of foods out there that are just now being found.
• As time goes on, the human body is continuing to evolve and change with the times.

"Flaxseeds are packed with antioxidants, healthy fat, and other essential nutrients that help lower the risk of various conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, cancer."

The University of Chicago has recently announced findings that bee pollen has antimicrobial properties, something that practitioners of natural medicine have known for years. It fights bacteria in a different way than conventional antibiotics and with the rising prevalence of antibiotic resistant microbes, this is potentially a game changer. The potential is great but also precarious as pesticide use has drastically decreased the bee population in the last few years. Hopefully science realizes just how important natural remedies are before it is too late.

Key Takeaways:

• New research has discovered potential from a compound derived from honeybees. But that ignores the fact that natural medicine has used bee pollen for some time.
• Years have passed since natural medicine has used bee pollen initially. That has seen the development of new approaches to medicine on the whole.
• The new antibiotic drug has been in use for some time now too. That has opened up new potential for a market for the antibiotic drug.

"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have labeled antibiotic resistance as one of the most pressing public health issues in the world as illnesses that used to be easy to treat become deadly."

Dr Ranahan has worked in cancer research for quite sometime. He had a moment where he thought of mushrooms break down whatever they grow up, is there a way for them to attach to cancer cells so that the cancer cells would be broken down. After finding out no study had been completed like this one, he raised the money needed to do the study. The study was successful, however research is still going on.

Key Takeaways:

• Dr. William Ranahan did a study on how mushrooms reacted to cancer cells.
• The mushroom used a compound or a mix of compounds to break down the cancer cells.
• The next step will be to identify the compound or mix of compounds.

"We’ve taken mushrooms and trained them to destroy, eat, live off of cancer cells."
