naturalnews.com a healthy dose of independent news

For The last couple of months I've been implementing various new healthy habits into my life, this may seem a little uncharacteristic of a 18 year old in the modern age, but it shouldn't seem uncharacteristic of a teenager who is informed about such matters as I am. My change towards a healthier lifestyle which has really been a part of great transformation that has been ongoing since I entered highschool, but most recently I have become more conscientious of my health because of the influence of the website naturalnews.com and the various useful and unuseful information provided by it. Through the websites I have been educated about the influence of diet in either preventing or creating disease, and various toxic substances that we are exposed to on a regular basis that pose tremendous risks to our health.
Naturalnews.com was started by Mike Adams a computer software entrepeneur, who after years of living the standard american lifestyle had reached a point in his life where he was no longer function in a manner that afforded him any joy in life; he had developed type 2 diabetes, was overweight and depressed. Having delt with the conventional medical system before and receiving little results, he was determined to find alternative means of rectifying his condition. So after scouring the web for information on curing diabetes, he became aware of the immense role diet and exercise played in his disease(type 2 diabetes). Throughout the next period of time he devoted himself to living a healthy life, by going out for walks and eating a diet high in whole foods which are high in nutrition and eliminating processed foods which are typically riddled with harmful chemicals.
The result of his new healthier lifestyle was that he felt much happier, had way more energy, and most astoundingly (to some) cured his diabetes. Since this critical shift in his life, he has gone on to give public lectures on the importantance of maintaining our health and created the website naturalnews.com with his background in computer software. Over the years naturalnews has grown rapidly, and has a monthly readership of approximately 1.8 million individual people. naturalnews.com offers what the mainstream media doesn't, a independent, non financially motivitated perspective on health issues. The site has contributions writers from various backgrounds; either health lecturers, medical doctors who've come to realize the effectiveness of natural forms of medicines, naturopathic doctors, homeopaths and health and food activists. This site has been primary source of information on health matters for the last year or so, i don't have any intentions of switching sources, simply because the site in itself offers perspectives from many different sources, and allows for clashing views to be presented on the website without censorship. This is because the site has no corporate interests and is independently funded. I hope you will at least check out some of the information provided by the site and at least gain a deeper understanding of health and holistic medicine.
