“All over the world, there are libraries of a sort. They are among the most beautiful places on the earth, and they hold more information than the Library of Congress. Within these libraries are millions of books, each a uniques masterpiece to see and touch. They are teaching this language to scientists. However, so far only one percent of the books have been deciphered. Some tell how to find new medicines; others reveal new things to eat... These treasure houses of knowledge are the ancient forests of our planet.” WorldHas BeensBookEarthBeautifulHouseLanguageMillionsTeachingInformationPlanetsPercentScientistMedicineLibraryCongressAncientTreasureForestsNew ThingsMasterpieceOur PlanetBeautiful Places Author:Brock Adams

“It is time for the scientific community to stop giving alternative medicine a free ride There cannot be two kinds of medicine — conventional and alternative. There is only medicine that has been adequately tested and medicine that has not, medicine that works and medicine that may or may not work. Once a treatment has been tested rigorously, it no longer matters whether it was considered alternative at the outset. If it is found to be reasonably safe and effective, it will be accepted.” IfsGivingKindMayHas BeensTwoMatterFoundCommunitySafeMedicineAcceptedAlternativesTreatmentConventionalTestedAlternative Medicine Author:Marcia Angell
“At every level, from the microcellular to the psychological, exercise not only wards off the ill effects of chronic stress; it can also reverse them. Studies show that if researchers exercise rats that have been chronically stressed, that activity makes the hippocampus grow back to its preshriveled state. The mechanisms by which exercise changes how we think and feel are so much more effective than donuts, medicines, and wine. When you say you feel less stressed out after you go for a swim, or even a fast walk, you are.” IfsThinkingFeelsHas BeensStatesShowsGrowsWalksLevelsStudyEffectsExerciseActivityStressWineMedicineIllPsychologicalSwimMechanismReverseRatsStressedResearchersDonutsStressed Out Author:John Ratey
