Antibiotics, Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis Link

2011-12-01T00:23:00.000-08:00

In the December's issue of Reader's Digest it is reported that according to research information there may be a link with the use of "antibiotics" and "Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis disorders.
The western countries do have a reputation of antibiotic overuse. Not only are people being prescribed antibiotics regularly but we are also ingesting "residual" amounts of antibiotics that are found in many of our foods such as meats and dairy. These residual amounts may be small, however over a period of time they have an accumulative effects on humans who consume these foods.
Be sure to ask your health provider next time he or she prescribes antibiotics if they are absolutely necessary for your overall wellness, not just the short term effect but the long term effect as well.
Keep a record as to how many times per year you have had to take antibiotics. Proper use of antibiotics should be used with discretion and care and considering the long term effects.
There are times when antibiotics are absolutely necessary and when it does become necessary be sure to add to your daily diet a good pro-biotic. Be sure that your pro-biotics have a "true delivery" system built in the supplement. Many pro-biotics do not fare well in stomach acid environment.
Thousands of friendly bacterias are destroyed from the digestive juices if they are not protected by the "true delivery" system.

Francesco's HEALING SECRET: Flu Shots, Should I ?

Flu Shots, Should I ?

2011-11-10T22:21:00.000-08:00

We all know what flu shots are supposed to do, right?
Well there are increasing reports from people getting the flu shot to prevent the flu but instead end up getting the flu. What?
It's correct, it happened to a very close relative of mine as well as other folks I personally know.
The problem is that the vaccine is only good for a specific micro organism when the vaccine is manufactured, however what is usually not generally known by individuals is that micro organisms have a habit of mutating to other forms and thereby making the original vaccine usually ineffective.
What are the odds that this happens I cannot say, but it happens more often than not.
Use your judgement and common sense and be sure to discuss this point with your health care physician.
There are herbs and nutrition to help bolster one's natural immune system. Drop me a line, come in our store or call me to discuss safe ways to bolster your immune system.
Regardless if you choose to vaccinate or not I personally encourage the young and the old to bolster and fortify your immune function before the flu season goes into full force.
Keep well and healthy.

Higher levels of vitamin D may be beneficial in the risk reduction for multiple sclerosis according to a study in (Neurology 2/8/11).
Scientists at the Australian National University in Canberra also arrived to this conclusion after studying a number of people ages from 18 to 59 who showed the initial signs of MS, affecting the brain and spinal cord. It was concluded that those individuals who had higher vitamin D levels in their blood were statistically less likely to have early MS.

Reported Beneficial Effects:

Reported to reduce cluster headaches.
Considered to be a very powerful antioxidant.
Increases life span in laboratory animal studies.
Benefit’s the enhancement of DHEA production, “the Youth Hormone”.
Significantly reduces DHT, (dihydrotestosterone), production in men like Saw Palmetto and thus prevents BPH, (benign prostate hyperplasia).

The Pineal gland is the switch for the pituitary gland, which controls aging. Melatonin is the key hormone the Pineal gland produces.
More sunlight exposure during the day is one approach for increasing melatonin production. Be sure to take off your glasses including sun glasses when getting sun light because the Pineal gland is stimulated by the light through the eyes.
Small dosages like 1 mg. up to 6 mg. work best. Larger doses are counterproductive.
Best result is to supplement after age 38.

Francesco's HEALING SECRET: ATTRACTION dis-ATTRACTION LOVE FEAR

2010-11-20T04:06:00.000-08:00

Francesco's HEALING SECRET: ATTRACTION dis-ATTRACTION LOVE FEAR

ATTRACTION dis-ATTRACTION LOVE FEAR

2010-11-20T04:02:00.000-08:00

In case you have missed what is the energy behind the “Law of Attraction”, it is the Love energy. The energy of Love is the universal glue that binds together things that have an affinity to each other. Healthy thoughts attract healthy living, etc.
Anything in its positive state is equivalent to Love energy. However, anything in its negative state is equivalent to Fear energy. It is the same energy only in reverse.
The Law of dis-Attraction deals with the energy of Fear. The emotion Fear causes a disassociation with those things that we desire or want most in our daily living. When we allow fear to creep in our consciousness we are basically pushing away the very thing we desire or need.
As an example if a person is fearful of catching a cold, chances are that he will most likely catch one. Most people would normally want to remain healthy but if fear of catching a cold is stronger than the love to remain healthy he will most likely attract a cold. There are numerous studies showing the connection between mind/belief and body/health.
Besides eating a balanced wholesome diet, another key element in keeping healthy is by practicing with the energy of Love. If you Love health and focus on health you will most likely attract that in your life. Notice I did not say if you Love health and dislike disease. In other words you must keep your thought and language positive. Please don’t think a positive thought and then follow it with a negative. Keep only to the positive. A simple analogy is that Light and darkness cannot co-exist simultaneously. Darkness can only occur if the Light is turn off. Therefore, darkness does not exist in the presence of Light. Similarly disease does not exist in the presence of health.
Keep your thoughts on health, eat healthy, listen to positive and healthy news, exercise in a healthy manner and surround yourself with positive and loving friends. These simple suggestions may make a huge difference in your total health of body, mind and spirit.
There is no substitute to the old saying, “Practice makes perfect”.
Go ahead, practice because your health is important.

RENEW YOURSELF

2010-09-10T08:12:00.000-07:00

CHANGE YOU FOR A BETTER YOU!

Sacred wisdom teaches us that it is never too late to change.
How does one change oneself?

1) REGRET
What is regret and how is it different from guilt?
Well , we all know what guilt is. That uneasy sick feeling that we have done something terribly wrong that can't fixed. What's done is done, move on.
What is regret?
The feeling of missed opportunity. Vow to yourself not miss it next time it shows up in your life.
2) LEAVING THE NEGATIVITY BEHIND
"Leaving the negativity behind" means consciously staying away from all paths that lead to negativity. This includes creating your positive environment in order to prevent temptation.
This includes staying away from tempting negative thoughts, which usually leads to the next step--action.
3) VERBALIZATION
There is a hidden power to verbalizing thoughts as opposed to just thinking about them. Verbalizing a thought brings the thought to a new level of reality, cognition, awareness and understanding.
The verbalization that is done after committing a regretful action makes one more fully aware of what was done. It therefore increases the regret and therefore strengthens the resolution not to commit the act again.
4) RESOLUTION FOR THE FUTURE
Firmly make a resolution not to repeat that negative behavior ever again.
Every minute that passes puts distance behind you and the negativity.
You're on your way to becoming the "renewed you!"

Impression / Expression

2010-07-28T16:21:00.000-07:00

All expressions are the result of IMPRESSION, (Pressed Inward), within one’s mental being.

Im-pression is none other that I’m, (I AM), followed by whatever you believe in, which is the impression you create for yourself.

Every time you say I Am healthy, HEALTH EXPRESSES ITSELF or
I Am sick, SICKNESS EXPRESSES ITSELF or

I Am Abundant, ABUNDANCE EXPRESSES ITSELF or
I Am poor, POVERTY EXPRESSES ITSELF.

It does not matter, whatever is IMPRESSED eventually is EXPRESSED.

Therefore be cautious on what is IMPRESSED, because it will sooner or later EXPRESS ITSELF. This phenomenon comes under the Cause and Effect principle.

Millions of individuals suffer from improper digestion due to lack of enzymatic metabolism. Research shows that individuals eating foods that are devitalized of enzymes eventually develop digestion difficulties. One of our main difficulty in digesting food is not a deficiency in acid blockers or a deficiency in anti-acids but precisely our lack of natural enzymes to break down food matter into its smallest particle so that nutrients may be liberated from food and be properly absorbed into our cells.

Truth about Cholesterol ?

2010-06-09T01:30:00.000-07:00

Does anyone ever ask why is my cholesterol high? Does anyone care to know the reason why cholesterol is so important that the liver has the duty to manufacture it and without this substance the human body would die.

Cholesterol is a type of fat that makes up our cell walls, hormones, nerves and much more. Saturated fats and cholesterol make the cell wall firm which is necessary to give form to the human body.
Approximately 20-25% of our bodies cholesterol is accounted for by the brain. Cholesterol is vital for the development of a fetus. Cholesterol is so necessary that mother’s milk provides a type of enzyme that allows the baby’s digestive tract in absorbing as much as 100 percent of that cholesterol, because the developing brain and eyes of an infant require larger amounts of it for proper growth.
Children deprived of cholesterol in infancy may end up with poor eyesight and brain function.
Cholesterol is a vital component for our nerve covering. The myelin sheath around each nerve band is composed of approximately 20% cholesterol. loss or damage to this myelin sheath usually results in the disorder called multiple sclerosis. When the human body is artificially prevented from manufacturing enough cholesterol our memory and mental capabilities are affected.
It is common for individuals who take cholesterol-lowering medication, soon after begin to suffer with memory recall.
On average approximately 85 percent of blood cholesterol is mostly manufactured in the liver, while only 15 percent comes from food. Regardless of how much or how little cholesterol you eat in your diet, the human body will generally manufacture what it needed.
Cholesterol is the basis in which the body’s hormones are made from, such as the adrenal and sex hormones. Some health researchers suggest that adrenal exhaustion can be greatly reduced by increasing the fat and cholesterol in the daily diet.
Cholesterol is necessary for our immune system to function effectively. LDL-cholesterol, (low-density lipoprotein), the so-called "bad" cholesterol, negatively impacts and directly binds to inactivate dangerous bacterial toxins.
Individuals with higher cholesterol are less prone to infections and if they become ill, will usually recover faster then those who have lowered their cholesterol artificially.

So why is cholesterol necessary for health of the human body?
The simple answer is that cholesterol is a balancing healing substance in the body. When the body requires healing and balancing, it manufactures cholesterol and sends it to the site of the damage.
The inside lining of our blood vessels are negatively impacted by toxic chemicals, free-radicals, infectious micro-organisms, or injury that results in micro-damage. The body’s response then triggers the liver to secrete LDL-cholesterol (the “bad” cholesterol) to go to the area of damage and begin the repair process. Cholesterol becomes important in assisting the body to clear infection, remove toxic elements and heal damaged areas.
The correct way to view high blood cholesterol level, is to realize the body is dealing with damaged tissue.
When the damage is repaired, blood cholesterol will on its own go down. However, if there is an ongoing disorder in the body that continues to inflicts damage to body tissue then blood cholesterol will register consistently high.
It is becoming common knowledge that cholesterol is one of the most important substances in the body. The human body cannot live without it or function well when artificially reduced with medications.
Recent scientific research is finally showing strong evidence that cholesterol has been mistakenly blamed for several types of cardiovascular disorders.
It is erroneous to continue to assume that the solution to high cholesterol is to artificially reduce it with medication. It is more correct to view that high cholesterol is a symptom and not a cause.
Realize that high cholesterol is a proper body response to a crisis. A part of the body being damaged.
It is a response, and therefore the cause must be sought out. Once the cause is effectively dealt with, cholesterol with normalize on its own.
Therefore, to treat high cholesterol as if it was the cause, is simply a mistake. High cholesterol is a symptom.

Pineal Gland and Light

2010-05-31T12:44:00.000-07:00

Light Deprivation and Pineal Gland
An imbalance of melatonin interferes with the body’s circadian rhythms, (sleep cycle), and may result in light deprivation disorders, which may contribute to depression, oversleeping, weight gain, fatigue, irritability and sadness. Our artificial lifestyles may contribute in a reduction of melatonin secretion. Melatonin is secreted by the pineal gland. Most of us spend the majority of our day working indoors under artificial light then rush home to spend more time indoors to read, watch television, use the computer, etc. These activities deprive us of natural light that assist us in a healthy melatonin level secretion. Natural light must be absorbed through the eyes without the use of sunglasses for short duration of time. There is consensus stating that exposure to natural light for a minimum of 30 to 60 minutes per day, early mornings may be adequate for proper pineal function.

The following symptoms may indicate light deprivation :

Carbohydrate cravings
Depressed
Difficulty concentrating
Irritability
Low energy
Reduced libido
Social withdrawal
Trouble sleeping
Weight gain

Symptoms of an Under-active Pineal:

Environmental stresses affect Pineal function, affecting overall body alertness, temperature levels, and hormone operation. Stresses that affect Pineal function include unusual light and dark rhythms, radiation, magnetic fields, nutritional imbalances, temperature swings, high altitude, and overall daily stress patterns.

Symptoms may show in the following:
Menstrual irregularities
Mood swings
Excess worry
Irrational fear
Seasonal affective syndrome
Headaches
Irregular sleeping
Paranoia or fanaticism
Hypertension
Epilepsy
Sodium or potassium imbalance
Nightmares/vivid dreams
Inability to think clearly or be in present moment

Natural Corrective Measures:

Stress management techniques, such as prayer or meditation
Daily minimum doses of natural light exposure
Massage the third eye area, located in the slight indent between the eyes on the forehead. Massage for 30 seconds.
Foods high in potassium, selenium, iodine, zinc, 5htp and spirulina
Reduce or eliminate the synthetic chemical fluoride in drinking water
Regular breaks from computers, TV’s, artificial lighting etc
Spend regular time in the woods or parks away from power lines and turn your cell phone off.
Keep all electrical devices at least 3 to 5 feet away from your bed
Sleep in complete darkness as it stimulates the pineal gland to release melatonin
Maintaining balance of the Pineal Gland assists your body on all levels physiologically, mentally and spiritually. Nurture and care for this marvelous gland and tap into your greater potential.

Rodent experiments suggest that when old rodents are implanted with a pineal graft from a young rodent the old rodent begins to exhibit signs of turning the clock backwards.
Old rodents becomes more energetic, eyes become sparkly, fur becomes shiny and other symptoms associated with being a young rodent are exhibited.

There is a bible reference in Genesis 32:30

“And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.”

Some bible scholars believe that the bible “Peniel” and the human pineal gland are the same reference.

Allergies and Liver Health

2010-05-18T13:14:00.001-07:00

Allergy intolerances can trigger severe reactions and symptoms that may include inflammation, itching, sneezing, runny nose, etc.
However, research has indicated that allergic reactions may manifest itself more than just runny nose or itching. There is a consensus that allergies may also be implicated in hyperactivity, mental imbalance, arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome and a host of other seemingly unrelated disorders.
One of the liver’s critical function is the detoxification of the body and the prevention of physiological stressors from causing allergies and dis-function. Therefore, it is of outmost importance that the liver be kept healthy and operating smoothly by the restriction of various toxins and chemicals that come in through our diet, smoking or drinking.
Read food labels and avoid chemicals that should not be in the food. Also stay away from chemicals that cannot be pronounced easily.
Lastly, consider doing a gentle liver detoxification as this is the right time of the year to do one. There are a number of different herbal formulations and single herbs that can assist you in achieving a good cleanse.
Your liver will love it and so will you.

Vitamins are Nutrients not Medicine

2010-05-13T23:23:00.000-07:00

--Congressman Waxman Sneaks Anti-Supplement Language into

"Wall Street Reform Bill"
- Urgent Action Needed!

The agents of Big Pharma are at it again. Since the majority

of their direct attacks against supplements have failed,

they have resorted to sneaking anti-supplement provisions

into other, completely unrelated legislation.

We've all heard about recent example of this in relation

to Senator McCain's (R-AZ) attempt to sneak language into

S. 510 that would create an "Accepted Dietary Ingredients"

list toseverely restrict what is allowed to be included

in a dietary supplement. This new action by Congressman

Henry Waxman (D-CA), however, is just as sinister.

http://www.vitamin-freedom.org/background/articles/20100430_waxman.html

To my knowledge, consumers of nutritional supplements are

generally regarded as healthier people according to various

researchers. However, staying healthier translates into less

bucks for other industry involved with sickness.

These industries would prefer to leave the horse barn doors

wide open only to close it after the horse has run off.

Key to Great Health

2010-05-11T18:21:00.000-07:00

As we age gracefully we do not take well to negative or unhappy thoughts. One should focus on the positive and joyful things of life. Remember, what we focus on tends to expand. Make it a habit to recall exciting and happy past events. Above all, laughter is really the best medicine in some cases.
For a variety of reasons as we become older, digestion becomes more sluggish, and hence, our inability to absorb nutrients. This increases problems such as gum disease, ulcers, gas, constipation, and other digestive disturbances. Peak digestion and nutritional absorption was most easily accomplished in our youth due to an abundant secretion of digestive enzymes.
During the early days of the American Zoo where wild animals were held in artificial environments and they were fed left over food from kitchens and the like, animals got sick and many of them died. This was costing a lot of money for the zoological society. Scientists were sought out to study the situation to see why those wild animals were getting sick and dying. After many scientist tried and failed to discover the cause, one brilliant scientist by the name of Dr. Howell discovered the reason behind the dilemma.
Dr. Howell reasoned, wild animals that live in the wild eat raw wild uncooked food. They do not eat cooked or prepared food. Bingo, this was the beginning of correctly understanding the cause as to why wild animals were getting sick and dying.
So the zoological society implemented a new rule, namely that all wild animals kept in captivity were to be given only raw uncooked food in its most natural state with little to no processing.
This approach worked favorably for the wild animals. They became healthier and began to live out their normal life span. It saved the zoological society a lot of money.
So what is the lesson for humanity. Even though we are not wild animals, we do share similar biological structure and function. Specifically, if the food we consume is adulterated by over processing, cooked to death, full of chemicals and preservatives we eventually will deplete our natural digestive enzymes and this is the beginning of the individual’s demise.
Whenever possible choose food that is least processed. As an example instead of eating corn from a can eat fresh corn, instead of canned peas eat fresh peas, instead of white refined flour products eat whole wheat products, etc. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables grown within its normal local season.
Some vegetables should be eaten raw and uncooked while others would do better by steaming them.
Finally, if you need additional support with proper digestion, supplement your diet with a full range digestive enzymes such as Digest All 100% plant based enzymes. These enzymes have a broad spectrum capacity to help digest a variety of foods. This approach has worked wonders for many clients. With digestion improved, vital nutrients are easily absorbed into the blood stream for tissue repair, renewal and maintenance.

Dis-ease and Resentment

2010-04-23T23:37:00.000-07:00

Any dis-ease almost always indicates something that occurred in the past. The emotion "resentment" almost always is involved with dis-ease at some level or degree. Resentment is something that many individuals carry with them causing negative bodily chemical changes to flood every cell of the body.
If this condition is allowed to continue for any length of time these negative chemicals begin to downgrade one's vitality and the ability to keep his or her defenses strong. In most cases the human body is quite resilient and will bounce back to health given the chance. However, a good practice is to check on "resentment" from time to time.
Frequently ask yourself who have I resented or what is my resentment?
Once you have identified the answer, bring back into your mind the event that led to your resentment and neutralize it with a good dose of self-forgiveness. You must be asking yourself at this time, "self-forgiveness? Why do I need to forgive myself?
Well believe or not self-forgiveness is the key to neutralizing resentment. You see, you are the creator of your resentment and therefore it is effecting YOU negatively. So when you forgive yourself, you are forgiving that part of you for creating negatively. By the way when you have forgiven yourself you have also automatically forgiven the other. This allows for a more complete healing of any dis-ease.
Do this as often as necessary until you feel OK with it or until you feel at peace.

Clay Miracle

2010-04-22T23:36:00.000-07:00

A special volcanic clay when ingested will absorb toxins, poisons, heavy metals, certain viruses, molds and fungus. It has been used to ameliorate gastritis, ulcers, food poisoning, over-acid stomach, diarrhea and many other dis-orders. This clay has a large surface area, so a small amount covers a larger area that can absorb hundreds of times its weight in toxins ans poisons. Clay has been used for thousands of years by indigenous people worldwide including wild animals with excellent results. Also this special clay is loaded with trace minerals in ionic form that has nutritional health benefits. This natural product is available in powder form as well as tablets.
Montmorillonite clay absorptive action is due to five characteristics: 1) it has a large and varied mineral content. 2) it has a negative electrical attraction for positively-charged particles. 3) its particles (shaped like calling cards), have surfaces that are negatively-polarized , which give it tremendous pulling power. 4) the fineness of the particles give a large surface area in proportion to the volume used, so it is able to pick up many times its own weight in positively-charged particles.
Desert regions where temperature is high and water scarce (leaching is therefore minor), provides an ideal environment in which the inherent qualities of a particular clay type may be preserved. These clays are richer in silica and alkaline earth minerals.
Clay is a rich source of electrical charges which can reduce inflammation and damage done to tissues due to free radicals generated internally in the body. These electrical charges are made more available and absorbable partly in response to gastric activity.
Clay is inert until water is mixed with it. When mixing be sure to mix in a non-reactive container such as clay or glass or wood. When activated or mixing do not work clay with any metal object such as a spoon or fork.
Some practitioners recommend that clay water should be experimented with slowly at first. Just mix one teaspoon of clay in one glass of water and let it settle. Drink only the water and not what has settled at the bottom.
When the organs of elimination have been stimulated and activated, their ability to remove toxic waste is improved. Then as clay works its effect on the body, toxins that are stirred up will be eliminated instead of recycled in the blood resulting in organ detoxification.
Clay taken before a meal may be constipating to some people, but taken first thing in the morning or last thing at night may regulate bowel movements. Internally, clay will reduce the fermentation process of harmful organisms. Clay is known to inactive and cause to be eliminated various microbes as well as parasites from the intestines and other organs of the body.

Joint Mobility Help

2010-04-15T00:20:00.000-07:00

According to the mind / body connection theory, an explanation for arthritis is the inability to accept criticism. Stiffness reflects the emotional inflexibility to criticism. Criticism is a natural part of living and should be viewed in a positive light.

The supplement glucosamine sulfate works better with the consumption of protein. The anticoagulant properties suggest that glucosamine may also reduce strokes.

Garlic’s immune properties benefit joints by inhibiting bacteria that produce an enzyme that breaks down the glucosamine gelatin. The synovial fluid readily carries the minerals that Garlic contains including selenium into the articular regions. The harmful bacteria living there produce hyaluronidase enzyme that is the same enzyme that sperm produce to penetrate the egg for fertilization. However, in the articular regions, these bacteria embed themselves in the hydrated thin gel material and eventually break it apart. Overall, proper nutrition will reunite the gel material and inhibit the hyaluronidase-producing bacteria.

For best results supplementing with selenium 200 mcg/day along with glucosamine sulfate to disarm a harmful bacteria in the joints that causes this problem.

Music's Healing Power

2010-04-15T00:03:00.000-07:00

Music weaves an intricate physiological dance with the body's neurons and blood cells and this dance is now being intensely studied by various researchers. Their findings are being applied in more and more hospitals. Music therapy has actually been used for thousands of years. Today, scientists are just beginning to understand how it works. It has already been shown that if certain slow pieces such as some of the works of Mozart are played, the listener's heart will adapt to the beat of the music.
Musical tones follow an intricate highway from the head to the rest of the body. The trip begins with sound waves traveling through the air and landing in the middle ear where they cause the eardrums and bones in the middle ear to vibrate. The brain transforms the mechanical energy into electrical energy and then sends the electrical impulse to the "thinking" part of the brain, the cerebral cortex which controls thought, perception and memory. The cerebral cortex then sends the impulses to the response centers of the brain that control emotion, arousal, anxiety, pleasure and creativity. Then there is yet another stop: the hypothalamus, a small area deep in the brain that controls heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, body temperature and the nerves in the stomach and skin. The hypothalamus strives to maintain equilibrium throughout the body. Think about how certain songs will give you "butterflies" in your stomach or goose bumps on your arms. This entire trip through the brain happens in less than a heart beat, but the journey has just begun.
First, these electrical signals are converted to hormones in the brain. Researchers have found that along with the need for fewer sedatives and the need to normalize blood pressure and heart rates, critically ill patients showed a 50% spike in growth hormone, produced in the pituitary gland, after listening to just one hour of Mozart piano sonatas. If patients or their families are unable to choose the music, a good choice is Mozart for the critically ill patients. The various hormones then leave the brain and flow throughout the body via the bloodstream where they calm or stimulate various systems.

Classical music is the most common choice among doctors and therapists. The vibration of stringed instruments in particular is thought to intertwine with the energy of the heart, small intestine, and the thyroid and adrenal glands as shown by research done at Cardiovascular Institute in New Jersey.

Listening to joyful music as part of an overall prescription for maintaining good heart health,
is defined as any music that brings on a natural high and maximizes the release of endorphins; the body's own feel good chemicals. Research has shown that hearing your favorite song causes your blood vessels to dilate, hence increasing blood flow. Healthy volunteers while listening to songs of their choice, researchers discovered that the diameter of upper arm blood vessels increased by 26%. After listening to music which they hated however, these vessels narrowed by 6%. Research currently supports that any music the patient finds enjoyable will be healing regardless of genre.
We know music can calm, influence creativity and can energize. Music's role in recovering from disease is being ever more appreciated.

Harp music is so unique that it is the only instrument that has 20 to 50 strings and is completely open, unlike other stringed instruments such as a violin or guitar. When a harpist strikes a chord, not only are the notes of the chord vibrating, but the strings above and below those plucked also vibrate. These vibrations appear to be absorbed by the body.

Essential Fatty Acid DHA

2010-04-14T23:18:00.000-07:00

DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid that is found in coldwater fish lipids and can also be extracted from microalgae. It is considered one of the primary building blocks of the retina and of the brain. It is the most plentiful fatty acid found in human breast milk and serves to ensure the proper function of nerve cell membranes.
DHA aids in memory disorders, senile dementia, vision problems, nerve disease, brain dysfunction and mental conditions.
Always seek higher brands names for purity. Look for "molecularly distilled process". This method provides for a cleaner product with much reduced levels of toxic materials that may normally be present in raw fish oils.

Minding your Health

2009-07-01T02:01:00.000-07:00

Q. Is health an effect or a cause?
A. Health is an effect.

Q. What is the cause of good health?
A. Your positive belief system, balanced nutrition and exercise.

Q. What about genetics?
A. Geneticists have discovered that genes can express themselves in healthier ways depending on the beliefs a person entertains.

Q. Does that mean that if I change my belief system it can have a strong influence on my health?
A. Yes.

Q. What is more beneficial to my health, treating the belief or the condition?
A. I believe treating the belief first will provide a solid foundation for a longer lasting effect, in addition treating the condition will provide a more permanent positive result.

Q. What is the best approach?
A. Treat the condition when necessary but more importantly treat your belief system also. Your belief system creates chemicals and hormones within your body that can heal or disrupt proper body function and its overall health.

Q. What if I treat the condition only?
A. Research has shown that a condition may show up again. It is always best to treat the belief along with the cause for a longer positive lasting effect.

Adrenal Burnout & to What to Do

2009-04-22T12:07:00.000-07:00

Thousands of people suffer from constant fatigue, unrelieved by rest and sleep. This is the main symptom of adrenal burnout syndrome. Other symptoms may include a craving for sweets, low blood pressure and blood sugar, irritability and depression. Low energy impairs every system of the body. Secondary symptoms range from impaired digestion to infections. Toxic emotions accumulate with adrenal burnout. The world looks bad, people are evil, and a hopeless attitude is quite common.
The condition is also called adrenal hypo-function, exhaustion or insufficiency. Unlike fatigue, one’s energy does not return after a good nights rest. Burnout is a more serious dis-harmony of the body’s energy system.
Excessive stress is an important cause of burnout, can be from diverse sources. Chemical toxicity and nutritional depletion are among the physical causes. Mental, emotional or spiritual stress may be a major factor. Financial, family or other stress may also contribute to burnout.
Other stressors are living in cities with noise and electromagnetic pollution. Cell phones, microwave towers and appliances like televisions, microwave ovens and computers give off strong electrical fields. More evidence is mounting showing the validity of this information withing the scientific community.

Nutritional Deficiencies are a common cause. When under stress, the need for nutrients is much greater. Carbohydrates, when excessive in the diet, stress the adrenals. Diets low in protein may also create deficiencies. Inadequate or chemicals in water affects oxygenation of the cellular tissues.
I recommend the avoidance of wheat, spelt, sugar and cow’s milk, dairy products except butter. A large segment of the population shows a sensitivity to this of foods. If other food allergies are present, avoid these foods for a while. Avoid Isolated soy protein as it is of poor quality and contains many anti-nutrients. Reduce all sweets, eat moderate amounts of fruit and vegetables and avoid all junk food. Avoid all vegetable oils except for extra virgin olive oil. Avoid all juices. They are too yin, most are too sugary and they can concentrate food toxins, upset blood sugar and weaken the adrenals. Use pink sea salt rather than table salt. Eat regular meals of excellent quality. Make the switch to organic food, whenever possible.

Nutritional supplements are necessary. Kelp capsules and nutritional yeast are excellent supplements for most people. They are rich sources of nutrients and kelp assists detoxification. Other nutrients that are very important for adrenal activity are vitamins A, B, C, E, pantothenic acid (B5) and adrenal glandular substance. Calcium and magnesium are often needed. A digestive aid is always needed. I prefer Pepsin HCL with broad spectrum enzymes. Zinc is frequently needed. Other nutrients may be needed depending on one’s level of toxic metals and other symptoms or deficiencies.
Rest and sleep are extremely important. Plan on nine hours of sleep for at least a couple of years. At times, more may be needed. Sleep is not a waste of time. There is no substitute for adequate rest. Rest when the body signals you to rest. Easy does it.

Spend some time in the sun each day. Contrary to some propaganda, half an hour of sunshine daily will not hurt you especially before 11 am or after 4 pm. Sunlight is a nutrient and assists health in many ways.
