Taught To Fear Disease, Rarely To Heal
Taught To Fear Disease, Rarely To Heal
Most of us can list dozens of diseases and drugs on demand, yet no one ever taught us how health is actually created in the body. We learned to fear diagnoses and trust “fixes,” but not to understand our own body and each system, let alone how daily food, sleep, stress and trauma shape them over time.
In my new article, “Taught To Fear Disease, Rarely To Heal,” I unpack what your biology is quietly doing for you every day, and why a model built around crisis and prescriptions so often leaves people unsupported with chronic fatigue, gut issues, low mood, and “mystery” symptoms.
You’ll learn how the gut–brain axis, stress response, microbiome, metabolic hormones interact, where conventional medicine excels and where it is insufficient, and how nutrition, movement, nervous‑system work and, where appropriate, targeted (para)biotics can work with medical care rather than against it.
This piece is for you if you’re tired of being told “all your tests are normal” when you feel anything but, and you’re ready for practical, science‑literate steps to move from passive patient to active partner in your own healing.

Mitochondrial Health: How Stress Drains Your Cellular Energy and What You Can Do About It
Mitochondrial Health: How Stress Drains Your Cellular Energy and What You Can Do About It
Your energy doesn’t just come from coffee or a good night’s sleep; it begins deep inside your cells, with healthy mitochondria. These tiny structures are responsible for producing the energy that powers everything you do, from thinking clearly to getting through a workout. But when stress become chronic, it takes a toll where we can’t see: it slowly compromises mitochondrial function. That’s why chronic stress doesn’t just feel mentally exhausting, it can leave you physically drained and struggling to focus.
The good news is, once you understand this connection, you can start to support your cells and rebuild your energy from the inside out.

Type 5 Diabetes (Malnutrition-Related Diabetes): A Comprehensive Overview
Understanding the Full Spectrum of Diabetes: What’s New in 2025?
Diabetes is far more complex than the well-known Type 1 and Type 2. In fact, recent advances have expanded our knowledge to include over a dozen distinct types, each with unique causes, symptoms, and treatments.
In April 2025, for example, the International Diabetes Federation officially recognised Type 5 diabetes, a form linked to childhood malnutrition causing severe insulin deficiency, primarily affecting lean adolescents and young adults in low-income countries.
Alongside this, traditional types like Type 1 diabetes (an autoimmune condition) and Type 2 diabetes (caused by insulin resistance) continue to affect millions worldwide. Other important forms include gestational diabetes, MODY (Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young), neonatal diabetes, and Type 3c diabetes, which results from pancreatic damage.
Recognising and accurately diagnosing the diverse diabetes types is critical because effective management depends on tailored treatment strategies. Misdiagnosis can delay care and worsen outcomes.
Our comprehensive guide breaks down these types, explains their causes, symptoms, and management approaches, helping patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals stay informed. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or supporting someone living with diabetes, understanding this evolving landscape empowers better health decisions.

All Breakfast Cereals Are Contaminated: What You Need to Know and How to Protect Your Family
The Hidden Dangers of Breakfast Cereals: PFAS, PFOA, and TFA Contamination. What You Need to Know and How to Protect Your Family.
A must-read article if you want to protect your health and the health of your children.
Despite breakfast cereals having long been marketed as a healthy, convenient start to the day, especially for children, we now know that they are as bad for health as the most processed food products on supermarket shelves, packed with excessive levels of sugar and questionable colourings.
To add to the blow, new scientific evidence reveals a troubling reality: many cereals, both conventional and organic, are contaminated with persistent “forever chemicals” like trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), a byproduct of PFAS pesticides, as well as other toxic contaminants. This article explores the latest findings, the health risks, and practical steps you can take to protect yourself and your loved ones from PFAS, PFOA, and related chemical exposures.

Ultra-Processed Foods Dominate UK and US Diets: What It Means for Health and Policies
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) have quietly taken over supermarket shelves and family dinner tables across the UK, the US, and much of the developed world. Once an occasional treat, these factory-made products, packed with additives, refined sugars, and industrial ingredients, now account for more than half of all food purchases in both countries. Health experts warn that this seismic shift in our diets is driving a surge in obesity, chronic disease, and early mortality, especially among the most vulnerable communities.
