Halle Berry is one of Hollywood's most well known women who has starred in many of box office topping movies. Halle Berry is an ageless woman. One would never believe that she will be turning 54 next month. Halle was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and revealed her diagnosis to the New York Times in 2006. It was during the shooting of a television show in 1989 that she fell into a diabetic coma for several days after which she received a diagnosis of diabetes type 1. Individuals with type 1 diabetes are born with it but Halle believes that her type 1 diagnosis became a type 2 diagnosis. Halle credits the keto diet for her good looks and for freeing her from having to take insulin. "I’ve managed to wean myself off insulin, so now I like to put myself in the type 2 category," said Berry. The keto diet entails high consumption of fats and minimal to no consumption of carbs which leads to the body burning fat instead of carbs for fuel. Sugar can place the aging process o...

A study led by Jessica Furner-Pardoe at the University of Warwick, has produced astounding results regarding the issue of antibiotic resistant bacteria. A few years ago, Jessica and her team stumbled across an ancient natural remedy, which consisted of a concoction of garlic, onion, bile salts and wine. The remedy was originally written in an old English medical text called, Bald’s Leechbook . Several batches of the garlic and onion cocktail were used to form a salve which was named Bald's eyesalve. In a prior study, fellow colleague and microbiologist, Dr. Freya Harrison found the ancient remedy to be effective against biofilms of Staphylococcus aureus. The current study by Furner-Pardoe led to the discovery that the remedy was also effective against other antibiotic resistant bacteria such as Acinetobacter baumannii, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, S. epidermidis and S. pyogenes. Dr. Harrison believes that the salve is an effective remedy for treating diabetic ulcers. "W...

I don’t think that the people were ready for the new black anthem that Mrs. Beyonce Knowles-Carter dropped on Juneteenth 2020. This is the most Africa-centered, black empowerment song that I’ve heard from a Black American since “Lift every Voice & Sing!” Actually, come to think of it, Lift Every Voice and Sing was not such a stark reminder of the actual history of black people as Black Parade is. The song, written by James Weldon Johnson was a powerful ode to freedom. When Weldon Johnson wrote Lift Every Voice and Sing in the year 1900, slavery in America had ended only a mere 35 years earlier. It was a song of black unity and a subdued poetic showmanship of pride that black people were just mustering up the courage to reclaim. Black Parade is a brazen and oh so bold, soul stirring, hip turning, beat-booming, ancestor appreciating, motherland dripping song from the ever so talented Beyonce! Anyone who knows me, knows I go goo goo ga ga for Bey. This song right here is why sh...
