Inner peace starts with setting limits. If your life is overfilled, you may need to set some limits. So stop doing some of the least important things, the things that honestly don't matter that much. Set a limit for how many times you will check inboxes, Instagram, Twitter etc. per day. And say no if you really don't have the time. positivityblog.com

A growing body of science suggests that genetically engineered (GE) salmon may pose serious environmental risks including potentially irreversible damage to wild salmon populations. Major food stores, Walmart, Costco, Albertsons, Kroger, Ahold, Aldi, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, H-E-B, Hy-Vee, Sprouts, Giant Eagle, Meijer and Target have affirmed their commitment to not sell the GE AquAdvantage® salmon ahead of AquaBounty Technologies that planned a first-ever harvest and commercial sales in the U.S. this fall. A federal judge in California looked poised to rule in favor of environmental groups afraid of GMO salmon's potential to blunt wild salmon populations, thus blocking the FDA's approval of the fish. Friends of the Earth released an updated list Tuesday of 80 grocery retailers, seafood companies, food service companies and restaurants with more than 18,000 locations nationwide that have stated that they will not sell genetically engineered salmon, demonstrating a widespread market rejection of the first commercial offerings of the first genetically engineered animal approved for human consumption in the U.S. More research is needed on the potential health risks of this novel food. healthimpactnews.com

Chiropractic Care Tied to Significant Reduction in Opioid Scripts: In a new meta-analysis and systematic review, patients who visited a chiropractor for a musculoskeletal pain condition were 49% less likely to receive an opioid prescription than their counterparts who went to other healthcare providers. "Preventing opioid addiction and overdose continues to be a significant public health priority; and as part of a strategy to lessen opioid use, clinical guidelines now recommend many non-pharmacological options to be considered as front-line treatment ahead of any medication," lead author Kelsey L. Corcoran, DC, VA said. After reviewing all of the available literature on chiropractic use and opioid prescribing, the researchers selected six studies with a total of 62,000 patients to include in the current analysis. The findings were presented at the American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM) 2019 Annual Meeting. Who do you know that could benefit from chiropractic care? medscape.com

Studies show that consuming 1 to 3 oz. of aloe gel at mealtimes could reduce the severity of GERD and other digestion-related problems. When used as a mouth rinse, pure Aloe vera juice is just as effective at reducing dental plaque buildup as regular mouthwash. Just two tablespoons per day can lower blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. Researchers are currently investigating how aloe may play a role in different types of cancer, as well. healthline.com
