Dr. Labrum discovered that the medications doctors so often prescribe for a myriad of conditions are a major contributing factor to peripheral neuropathy!
Dr. Labrum's research also helped him piece together several little-known, natural methods for repairing damaged peripheral nerves.
Food waste is clogging up landfills and sending greenhouse gases into the air. While we throw out perfectly good food, others go hungry.
Dumpster divers are highlighting this food waste problem by going months eating only from what they find in garbage bins.
Organizations like Food Rescue US are rescuing food, that would have gone in the trash, and taking it to people who need it. Watch where the United States ranks on food waste compared to other countries that have passed laws to limit food waste.

In this Our Changing Climate environmental video essay, I look at the problem of food waste. Specifically, I look at how food waste both in America and across the world is a massive problem for climate change, the environment, and hunger. By addressing food waste in farms, grocery stores, and at home, we could potentially feed billions of people and curb the massive emissions generated to make food and from food waste that ends up in the landfill. There are some pretty simple fixes to food waste like creating a shopping list, using guides to figure out when your food actually spoils, or creating a compost area and then composting food scraps. As a Vox video on the topic puts it, food waste is the world’s dumbest problem. But if we address food waste head-on, we will be well on our way to solving climate change and mitigating world hunger.
