There is a question that almost no physician asks the chronically fatigued patient sitting across from them: What kind of water are you drinking?

Not how much. What kind.

With extreme heat settling over vast areas this summer and temperatures stuck at 100 degrees or more for days on end in some places, it's time to adjust our diets for the duration. It's natural that rich heavy foods just don't appeal to us when the thermometer spikes, and we turn to lighter fare to cool us off.

Eating wisely is especially important right now to minimize our discomfort and maximize our energy - despite the heat.

Here are seven simple food tips to help keep you cool:

Fresh coconut water is a staple in many diets around the world, including those of India and other tropical countries. But it goes beyond being a refreshing, thirst-quenching drink. Here's a rundown of its research-backed benefits, such as decreased blood glucose and body weight for improved health

Coconut water is nature's gift in one complete package. It's the liquid found in the center of a young, green coconut, helping nourish the fruit. Its wide range of applications is justified by its unique chemical composition of sugars, vitamins, minerals and amino acids, as well as phytohormones.[i]

The Coconut Cure for Alzheimer's: Dr. Mary Newport's Forgotten Protocol

Why a grocery-store fat outperformed 99.6% of Alzheimer's drug trials — and what pharma doesn't want you to know

Dr. Newport couldn’t watch her husband disappear into Alzheimer’s, so she went looking for a fuel his brain could still burn. What she found in a kitchen pantry — and what 99% of pharmaceutical research has failed to deliver in two decades — is a story about biology, money, and asking the wrong question.

The Clock That Couldn’t Be Drawn

In May 2008, Dr. Newport — a Florida neonatologist — watched her 58-year-old husband Steve try, and fail, to draw a clock. He drew “a few little circles and several numbers just in a very random pattern.” The doctor pulled her aside and told her Steve was “beyond moderate” Alzheimer’s, on the verge of severe (US Against Alzheimer’s). The tremors had started. The reading was gone. The man she had married 40 years earlier was disappearing.

Water, Energy, and the Perils of Dehydration

What if water, plain and simple, was the most critically lacking substance for energy and health promotion in the modern lifestyle? 

Some years ago, I read the late Dr. Fereydoon Batmanghelidj's marvelous book, Your Body's Many Cries for Water, first published in 1992 and more recently updated in 2008. Here this Iranian-American physician made and makes a strong case that chronic low grade and usually unrecognized dehydration affects most of us in the West, attuned as we are to avoiding water as a beverage and too often choosing dehydrating caffeinated and sweetened drinks that only contribute to the problem. After all, caffeine is a well-known diuretic, as is sugar. We may think when we imbibe sodas, coffee, energy drinks, or for the healthier among us, even herbal teas, that we are in effect ingesting adequate "water." But as Dr. Batmanghelidj points out, such intake only makes dehydration worse, causing a greater water loss overall than we take in. For example, for every 10 ounces of a caffeinated beverage, be it coffee, black tea, soda pop or an "energy" drink, we can lose up to 12 ounces of water, a loss contributing to, not resolving, low grade chronic dehydration. Even the healthy favorites of non-caffeinated herbal teas dehydrate, due to the complex combination of diuretic molecules in the brew as well as the osmotic effect.

That bottle of sunscreen in your beach bag may be doing more harm than good. New research reveals the hidden dangers lurking in conventional sunscreens and highlights safer, natural alternatives that can protect your skin without toxic side effects.

For decades, we've been told that slathering on sunscreen is one of the best ways to protect our skin from the sun's harmful rays. However, mounting evidence suggests that many conventional sunscreens contain ingredients that may be hazardous to our health and the environment. From hormone-disrupting chemicals to potentially carcinogenic nanoparticles, the risks associated with common sunscreen ingredients are cause for serious concern.

At the same time, researchers have discovered that many natural plant oils offer significant sun protection, often rivaling or exceeding the SPF of chemical sunscreens. These botanical alternatives not only shield skin from UV damage, but also nourish and moisturize without introducing synthetic toxins into the body.

Watermelon is so much more than just a highly refreshing summertime treat. From the perspective of a growing body of clinical research, it is a truly medicinal food.

There's an abundance of clinical research these days on the medicinal properties of common foods like watermelon. For instance, research published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found watermelon juice is an effective remedy for reducing the recovery heart rate and muscle soreness in athletes who were given 500 ml of watermelon juice (16.9 oz) containing 1.17 grams of the naturally occurring amino acid L-citrulline.[1]

Additional research indicates watermelon may possess the following health benefits:
