Heavy Metal Found In Meteoroids Kills Cancer Cells What it is:   Researchers at the University of Warwick have discovered a new way to kill cancer cells without harming the surrounding healthy tissue. By embedding iridium into tumor cells and heating it with a visible red laser, the iridium converts oxygen into singlet oxygen, which is toxic to the tumor, interfering with its glucose metabolism and heat shock proteins. Why it's important:   We’re seeing massive experimentation in highly targeted methods of attacking different types of cancers. What's more, as exciting as this is for cancer therapy and treating disease, we are simultaneously learning a great deal about the states and lifestyles that lead to cancers, allowing us to attack longevity on the preventative end.  Read more here:   http://www.futurity.org/iridium-cancer-cells-1605752

The human brain isn’t designed to make us happy and fulfilled. It’s designed to make us survive. This two-million-year-old organ is always looking for what’s wrong, for whatever can hurt us, so that we can either fight it or take flight from it. If you and I leave this ancient survival software to run the show, what chance do we have of enjoying life? An undirected mind operates naturally in survival mode, constantly identifying and magnifying these potential threats to our well-being. The result: a life filled with stress and anxiety. Most people live this way since it’s the path of least resistance. They make unconscious decisions, based on habit and conditioning, and are at the mercy of their own minds. They assume that it’s just an inevitable part of life to get frustrated, stressed, sad, and angry—in other words, to live in a suffering state. But I’m happy to tell you there’s another path: one that involves directing your thoughts so that your mind does your bidding, ...
