Working to help promote natural and sustainable healthcare through the use of ‘good science' and 'good law’. ANH-Intl is a global non-governmental organisation promoting natural and sustainable approaches to health and environmental care. Through our work, with its key focus on Europe (www.anh-europe.org) and the USA (www.anh-usa.org), we help to shape an appropriate scientific and regulatory framework that encourages increased adoption of natural and sustainable approaches to healthcare. Our mission, by working with a diverse cross-section of society, including health professionals, companies, consumers and political representatives, is to help reduce the burden of chronic, degenerative diseases that lead to a unnecessary loss of quality of life and threaten to cripple healthcare systems and economies. We also focus on evaluating the health and environmental impact of food production systems, in the process identifying those that are most sustainable yet are capable of satisfying the needs of our planet’s growing population. As a means of raising awareness of the issues, we engage in education, legal support and advocacy to help improve consumer engagement and freedom of choice as well as removing barriers to trade in products and services integral to natural and sustainable healthcare. The organisation was founded in 2002 by Robert Verkerk PhD, an internationally acclaimed expert in sustainability, who has headed the organisation since its start. Through its work particularly in Europe and the US, ANH-Intl works to accomplish its diverse mission through its unique application of ‘good science’ and good law’.

GLP-1 weight-loss jabs like Ozempic promise to silence food noise. For some, they work—temporarily. But stop the injections, and the chatter comes back louder than ever.

There’s another way: fasting, whole foods, outdoor movement. Tools that retrain your metabolism to burn stored fat and restore natural appetite signals.

💬 What’s your experience? Have you tried fasting or adjusting your diet to reduce food noise? Did it work?

Are you digitally connected? Of course you are. But at what cost?

Behind the convenience of constant connectivity lies digital dependency syndrome—a silent epidemic reshaping childhood and family life.

The tragic loss of 16-year-old Adam Raine shows just how high the stakes are when AI and addiction collide. But his story is not isolated. From toddler tantrums to teenage withdrawal, the signs of tech overuse are everywhere.

The business model of Big Tech is simple: keep us hooked, harvest our data, and feed the machine.

👩‍👩‍👧 Parents can resist:
• Create digital-free zones
• Model healthy use
• Choose nature and human connection over screen time

It’s time to reclaim our attention, protect our children, and choose connection over control.

👉 Will you unplug to reconnect?

In 2008, ANH International was on the front lines of the fight against Europe’s restrictive health claims regime.

Fast forward to today: our sister organisation ANH-USA has filed a landmark legal petition against the FDA for unlawfully censoring more than 118 nutrient–disease claims—statements backed by agencies like the NIH and CDC.

Why does this matter? Because the same censorship culture exists in the EU and UK, where only 297 out of 40,000+ proposed claims have ever been authorised.

This isn’t just about nutrients. It’s about whether citizens have the right to know truthful, science-backed information about nutrients found in foods (including supplements) and health.

📢 If successful, the US petition could change the landscape for Europe and the UK too—empowering citizens, breaking down arbitrary barriers, and reclaiming health freedom.

👉 Stay tuned. History may be in the making.

Can we slow down ageing at the cellular level?

In this episode of the Functional Health podcast, Ben Atkinson sits down with Dr. Rob Verkerk PhD to explore one of the most exciting frontiers in integrative medicine — peptides.

🧬 Biological vs. Chronological Age
Your birthday counts the years you’ve lived — but your biological age measures how fast your body is really ageing. Even slowing that clock by just 2–3 years can slash your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and more.

💡 Why Peptides Matter
Unlike many drugs that block pathways, short natural peptides communicate with your body’s cells to trigger repair and regeneration — right down to your DNA.
From boosting immune resilience to stimulating stem cells, these molecules could be a game-changer for health and longevity.

Rob and Ben discuss epigenetic testing to measure ageing, the late Vladimir Khavinson’s groundbreaking peptide research plus how peptides may help heal disease and extend healthspan

🎙 Listen now for a deep dive into the science, promise, and future of peptides in slowing biological ageing. 👇

🧪 From Plastic to Paracetamol?

Scientists have bioengineered paracetamol (Tylenol) from PET plastic using genetically modified E. coli. 🤯

Yes, you read that right — painkillers made from plastic waste.

Published in Nature Chemistry, this “breakthrough” may sound like a win for recycling, but is it really?

💊 Should we be using plastic-eating bacteria in our health systems?
🌍 Could this lead to unexpected risks for human and environmental health?

Just because we can… should we?

Two models. One word. Radically different meanings.

💊 In the NHS model, prevention = early diagnosis ➡ more meds, more screenings, more medicalisation.
🌱 In the ANH model, prevention = building so much health that disease has no place to grow.

The NHS plan doesn’t truly prevent—it just diagnoses earlier.
That’s not a health system. That’s a disease-management system.

The future of health doesn’t live in a government app.
It lives in you, your choices, your community, your environment.

We, individually, and within our own communities (local and non-local), hold the keys to our health, and for that we need our freedom, the ability to exercise choice, and the free flow of health information. https://www.anhinternational.org/news/head-to-head-new-nhs-plan-versus-anh-blueprint/

🦷 CHILDHOOD TOOTH DECAY: THE SILENT EPIDEMIC THEY’RE NOT TALKING ABOUT 😱

More kids are suffering from tooth decay than asthma, hay fever, or even obesity. In the UK, it's the #1 reason children aged 6–10 are admitted to hospital. In the US, nearly 1 in 2 children are affected.

But here’s the twist: it’s not just about sugar and brushing.

📉 Children with healthy diets and great oral hygiene are still ending up in surgery to have rotting teeth removed.

So what’s really going on?

🧬 Tooth decay begins before birth.

A mother’s diet, gut health, and exposure to toxins during pregnancy can alter a baby’s oral health.

C-sections, antibiotics, and disrupted microbiomes weaken the body’s natural defences.

Even “healthy” baby food pouches and fluoride overload are quietly feeding the crisis.

We need to stop blaming and start asking deeper questions:
👉 Why is this happening even in health-conscious families?
👉 Why are we ignoring the role of maternal and early-life health?
👉 And why are we flooding our children with fluoride when it may be doing more harm than good?

🔍 It’s time to rethink everything we thought we knew about oral health.
True prevention starts before the first tooth appears. It's time to dig deeper: https://www.anhinternational.org/news/tooth-truth-what-s-really-behind-our-childrens-cavities/

🤖🌾 The rise of unmanned farms is here.

A Chinese study predicts a future where autonomous machines, drones & sensors linked to the Internet of Things do it all - planting, monitoring, and harvesting - all WITHOUT a farmer in sight.

While this tech promises efficiency, it raises a big question: What happens when we’re no longer part of the food chain? Hit FOLLOW for more like this each week!

Not all 'foods' are harmless...

A new Nature Medicine study links regular intake of processed meats, sugary drinks & trans fats with increased risk of chronic diseases like type-2 diabetes, heart disease & colorectal cancer — though the links are relatively weak.

📈 For example, one hot dog a day = 11% higher risk of diabetes & 7% higher risk of bowel cancer.

✅ Our advice? Follow the Food4Health guidelines: eat mostly whole, minimally processed foods with a rainbow of plants 🌿🌈 to protect your long-term health. Link to read more in comments.
