How Gluten and Candida cause leaky gut

Do You Have a 'Leaky Gut'?
by Michael Edwards 

(NaturalNews) For many, gluten is difficult or impossible to properly digest. It takes an abundance of healthy bacteria to properly digest gluten. One of the many reasons our ancestors had less of a problem with digesting gluten than we do is that they used to use a probiotic culture that pre-digested the gluten proteins before they baked the bread. In addition, sugar consumption has been on the rise for decades, and there is a direct correlation with our increased sugar consumption and pretty much everything that's wrong with our bodies.

Lactose Free milk substitutes

by Michael Ravensthorpe

(NaturalNews) According to an article published on the Genetics Home Reference website, an estimated 65 percent of the world's population has difficulty digesting lactose, a sugar found in animal milk, after infancy. While people of East Asian descent are the most likely to suffer from lactose intolerance, it also affects large populations of the United States and Europe. Shortly after consuming animal milk, these individuals often suffer from a host of unpleasant symptoms ranging from abdominal pain and bloating to nausea and diarrhea.

This article takes a closer look at the best of these plant-based milks, listing both their advantages and disadvantages so that you can decide which one is best for your needs.

Unusual EcoFriendly Home - The Nautilus in Mexico City

The Nautilus

The Nautilus in Mexico City was designed by architect, Javier Senosiain, taking inspiration from the actual form of a nautilus. Vibrantly colorful, the house has been constructed out of concrete and chicken wire. It is earthquake proof and requires little maintenance. Harmony seems to have been the key objective of the Nautilus with the interior seamlessly flowing into various chambers. An indoor garden lounge houses a patch of vegetation adding more to its natural ambience.
