The Real Cause Of Heart Disease, Diabetes, Alzheimer’s

Real healing is based in uncovering the root causes of the symptoms and diseases that afflict modern humans. History has continually shown that treating a disease or a symptom does not cure a person of those things, nor does it prevent him from continuing his wreckage of the body. Often, a single underlying factor can be the root cause of several ailments and diseases at once. One such root is...

In a world filled with toxins, detoxing is an invaluable tool for better health. But if you detox the wrong way, you could turn a health problem into a health disaster. Here’s what you need to know about safely ridding your body of the health-robbing compounds that surround us.

Follow The Detox Cycles For A Safe And Successful Cleanse

Why It’s So Hard To Lose Weight And Keep It Off

May 21, 2013 by

It may be the most common weight-loss problem: Many people find it relatively easy to drop a few pounds but almost impossible to keep the weight off. Scientists at the University of Michigan and the Argentina-based National Council of Science and Technology (CONICET) now think they have closed in on the reason for this difficulty. According to these scientists, if you want to make an effort to lose weight, the sooner the better. If  extra pounds are left on the body too long, the body will fight efforts to allow those pounds to disappear. "Our model demonstrates that obesity is in part a self-perpetuating disorder and the results further emphasize the importance of early intervention...

Kidney Stones, Kidney Health

May 20, 2013 by

By cleaning your blood, your kidneys keep you alive. Most of the time, we pay little attention to this crucial function; the common way most people finally learn about their kidneys is by experiencing kidney stones. That’s a painful way to become aware of an important part of the body. Nephrolithiasis: Kidney Stones Kidney stones affect about 9 percent of Americans at some point in their lifetimes. And they occur twice as often in men than women and twice as often in people who are obese. [1] Fortunately, most kidney stones pass out of the body on their own, but not without inflicting great pain. When a stone is large enough (usually 3 mm diameter), it causes symptoms of severe...

The Drug You Shouldn’t Take If You Exercise

If you exercise to improve your health and fitness, researchers have identified a commonly prescribed drug that negates your exercise benefits. This drug, taken by 25 percent of people over the age of 45, interferes with muscle development and actually blocks your ability to become more physically fit. University of Missouri researchers found that statins, prescription drugs that are supposed to lower cholesterol and protect against heart problems, impedes the positive effects of exercise. “Fitness has proven to be the most significant predictor of longevity and health because it protects people from a variety of chronic diseases,” says researcher John Thyfault. “Daily physical...

Gluten Can Shrink Your Brain

May 20, 2013 by

The long list of possible harm that gluten can cause just keeps getting longer. Two studies, one in the United Kingdom and the other in Turkey, both show that gluten, proteins found in wheat, rye and barley, can shrink your brain. In one of the studies, when researchers examined more than 30 people with celiac, an autoimmune disease linked to gluten consumption, they found that the section of their brains that organizes the activity of their muscles had shrunk. According to Vikki Petersen, co-founder of the HealthNow Medical Center, for anyone suffering from “headaches, imbalance problems, sensory problems or any sort of nervous system imbalance, including seizures and depression, a...

The Household Appliance That Is Making You Depressed

Modern humans spend a lot of time with electronic devices. Cellphones, laptop computers, etc. keep us engaged in evening mental activities until it’s time to turn off consciousness and get to sleep. But one modern device in particular may be making you depressed if you overindulge after dinner. Evening illumination from powerful light bulbs can wreak havoc on your emotions. The solution: Keep your house dimmer in the hours before bed. “Basically, what we found is that chronic exposure to bright light -- even the kind of light you experience in your own living room at home or in the workplace at night if you are a shift worker -- elevates levels of a certain stress hormone in the...
Many news reports have described health risks often found in hotel rooms: bathroom glasses that are unclean, quilts seldom laundered and inadequate ventilation.

Toxins In Hotel Rooms

Many news reports have described health risks often found in hotel rooms: bathroom glasses that are unclean, quilts seldom laundered and inadequate ventilation. Researchers at San Diego State University have discovered another problem: toxins in hotel rooms that are linked to cancer. But these scientists also reveal an easy way to avoid the toxic danger. The California researchers found that hotels that allow smoking have carcinogenic toxins in all the rooms. This is true even in non-smoking rooms. They caution that the only way to avoid the poisons is to stay in hotels that do not allow smoking anywhere on the premises. The researchers warn: "Our findings demonstrate that some...

Natural Solutions To Gout

May 17, 2013 by

Gout has been nicknamed “the disease of kings,” because it was once associated with a rich, extravagant diet that only monarchs could afford. But today, just about anyone can become afflicted with gout. This condition causes debilitating arthritic pain when excessive uric acid in the blood forms needle-like crystals that accumulate in joints in the foot, ankle, wrists and fingers. Gout is the most common form of inflammatory arthritis in the United States, affecting more than 3 million people. If untreated, the condition can lead to infection, amputation and even death. For reasons not quite understood, the spring season is typically when gout flare-ups are at their worst. Throughout...

Cellphones Of Death

May 16, 2013 by

Experts still debate whether cellphone radiation is linked to cancer. But Italian researchers have definitive proof that these phones can cause another serious health problem. And it could kill you. A study at the Guglielmo da Saliceto Hospital in Piacenza, Italy, demonstrates that talking on a cellphone can significantly increase your blood pressure. In this research, cellphone calls were shown to increase blood pressure, on average, from 121/77 to 129/82. The scientists found that the increases in systolic blood pressure (represented by the top number in a blood pressure reading) were less pronounced in people who make more than 30 calls a day. "The subset of patients who were...
