Want to be happier? Help Someone: While we often think that we will be happier when we receive, the truth is we are happier when we give. This is also one of the most difficult things to apply. You can apply this by finding someone in need and lending a helping hand. The person could be your family, a friend, or even a stranger. You could also donate to a charity. lifeoptimizer.org

Vaccine manufacturer Merck has abandoned development of two coronavirus vaccines, saying that after extensive research it was concluded that the shots offered less protection than just contracting the virus itself and developing antibodies. They are now switching to finding a treatment for the virus. The company said their vaccine candidates did so poorly that it would be better to simply get the virus through natural infection. Their therapeutic drug candidates, however, are faring better. The drugs aim to protect patients from the damage of an overactive immune response to the virus. "Interim results from a Phase 3 study showed a greater than 50% reduction in the risk of death or respiratory failure in patients hospitalized with moderate to severe COVID-19," the company's statement noted of the MK-7110 drug. summit.news

Obstructions with the signaling pathways between the nervous and the immune system (like Vertebral Subluxations) impact the ability to heal adequately. Without the use of surgery or medication, chiropractic care removes these barriers so that the body can properly repair itself at a genetic level and stimulate the immune system… naturally! thetruthaboutcancer.com

Gymnema sylvestre is a plant whose leaves are considered to be a sugar destroyer because it is thought to inhibit sugar absorption in the body. The plant has appeared in many research studies, evaluating its effectiveness for the treatment of weight loss and diabetes in Western medicine as well as in India. Gymnema sylvestre is said to lower sugar cravings while reducing the rate at which sugar is absorbed into the body, potentially providing a two-fold action to combat weight gain and diabetes. verywellhealth.com
