Chocolate and heart health |
| 3/1/2010 2:07:06 PM |

It Pays (Really Pays!!) to Be Healthy |
| 1/11/2009 11:44:06 AM |
Did you see the recent report that shows being healthy actually pays off! People who are healthier, earn higher incomes. Consequently, being unhealthy gets you less money and less opportunity for success in life.
It has sort of a "rich get richer" affect...I guess you call it a "healthier get richer" affect in this case. But those who are healthy earn... Read More |

So, Did We Elect The Healthiest Presidential Candidate? |
| 11/5/2008 2:30:20 PM |
We have had presidents in the past who had heart problems, and conversely those who have run marathons...
On paper, it seems that we have elected the healthiest candidate among the two. McCain and Biden released information on prior surgeries, Palin released nothing. Obama's release to the general public, "on paper", only consists of a one page report giving him a... Read More |

Myths to Losing Your Abs |
| 10/14/2008 12:07:43 AM |
Here are the so-called myths to losing Your Money for the Abs You Dream of:
- 1. Many so-called "health foods" are actually cleverly disguised junk foods that actually stimulate you to gain more belly fat... yet the diet food marketing industry continues to lie to you so they can maximize their profits.
- Ab exercises like crunches, sit-ups, and ab machines are the LEAST effective method of getting flat six pack abs.
- Boring repetitive cardio exercise routines are NOT the best way to lose body fat and uncover those six pack abs.
- You DON'T need to waste your money on expensive "extreme fat burner" pills (that don't work) or other bogus supplements. A special class of natural foods is much more effective. I'll tell you about these natural foods and their powers below.
- Despite the misleading infomercials, the perfectly chiseled fitnessmodels in the commercials did NOT get their perfect body by using that"ab contraption"... they got their perfect body through REAL workoutsand REAL nutrition strategies.
Lose your abs the natural way. And most importantly, stay healthy.

Skin Tightener ST Skin Tightening Therapy: anti-aging, wellness, beauty, and health |
| 9/11/2008 4:33:03 AM |
The Skin Tightener ST is an innovative new technology for non-invasive skin remodeling and skin tightening therapy. The Skin Tightener works by stimulating the growth of collagen to reduce wrinkles and the affect of aging on skin. Collagen is the natural substance that gives human skin its soft, full, youthful appearance. The human body produces collagen from birth, producing less and less collagen until as we age until in the late 40's collagen production essentially stops in the body. The body also produces a natural enzyme known as collagenase, which breaks down collagen. This lack of collagen in later life leads to the start of lines, wrinkles, and generally tired, shagging looking skin that occurs during aging. Skin Tightener ST Therapy acts to cause new collagen production, helping to create a younger, more vital appearance to the skin.
Skin Tightener ST is the only current treatment of its kind claiming to produce immediate positive skin results followed by progressive improvement for up to six months. Since spurring collagen growth involves creating new substance by the skin cells, collagen stimulation can take several months to show obvious results. There is some immediate skin tightening and wrinkle reduction since Skin Tightener ST also reaches the deeper layers of the skin where it's affects show rapid improvement. Skin Tightening treatments have been shown by users to cause minimal discomfort, which are usually temporary. There is no reddening of the face, causing individuals reluctance to go out in public immediately after treatment. People using ST can resume their normal routine immediately after the skin treatment, and can even be combined with as other treatments.
Skin Tightener ST features a unique mixture of plant and marine ingredients, which is said to produce a tightening effect on the skin in around five minutes after application to the skin. The beneficial effects for the skin of ocean products like kelp have been known for ages. Skin Tightener ST includes both Natural Ocean and herbal ingredients that enhance the synthesis of collagen, tightening and rejuvenating the skin and reducing wrinkles. ST also contains Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide, an anti-inflammatory agent that helps heal aging damaged skin, and the ingredient Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, which reduces the skin sagging that contribute to wrinkles and lines on the face.

Arthritis Treatment for Health and Wellness |
| 9/10/2008 11:15:37 PM |
Suffering from the painful effects of arthritis is often so severe. The simplest movements can even cause anguish and tears. But, there are treatments to help arthritis.
Are there treatment or cure to arthritis?
First and foremost, let us have a brief overview of arthritis. Arthritis is an inflammation in the joints. There are many different types of arthritis. The causes of each will help to determine the treatment to be applied. The symptoms of any arthritis start with pain---particularly joint-pains.
Arthritis can strike any individual, not necessarily older people. If symptoms of pain are accompanied with fever, visit a doctor immediately as this can be an indication of the worse arthritis known as septic arthritis.
The problem in rheumatoid arthritis is that, in trying to deal with the inflammation, the immune system ends up attacking the cartilage in the joints. The end result is pain and lessened use of the effected joint. In order to stop this process, arthritis treatments can be anything from surgery to medications. There are some good notes about medications, but in the end, they can not resolve the entire problem, only mask the pain for a while. Surgery is invasive and costly. Physical treatment is available and has shown good progress in helping some patients.
There are also herbal remedies that have shown good signs of helping as well. There is one product that we would like to mention in a little more detail. What is so unique about this product, though, is that it is a natural treatment that can be taken. In the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in particular, collagen type II can be just as good as a cure to some individuals. This natural substance is actually a main component of cartilage itself. But, no injections are needed because this is an oral treatment. You will take a pill, in other words. There are many reasons why this medication works including the fact that it has an absorption rate of 70 to 90 percent. This means more of it is used and fewer doses are needed. There are other reasons why it works so well. For instance, the immune system has a component of cells in the intestine called the GALT. This is where proteins are recognized as food or “friend” and therefore not treated as allergies or sensitivities by the digestive system. When collagen type II is ingested, the GALT recognizes this amino acid as a friendly protein. This action switches off the immune system’s attack on collagen elsewhere in the body as in arthritic joints. Instead of the immune system fighting the inflammation and destroying the remaining good material, the Galt simply tells it to stop. And, probably the most important aspect of this natural arthritis treatment is that it can also help to rebuild the damaged and destroyed cartilage. The combination of these two factors can help to restore a normal way of life.

Elumea is an Herbal Remedy for Boils and Abscesses |
| 9/9/2008 2:32:02 AM |
Elumea otherwise known as Ngaicamphor, Alimon, Sambong, and many other local names depending on country and region is an excellent remedy for boils and abscesses.
Its scientific name is Blumea Balsamifera.
This is another healing wonders of nature in the form of herb. Herbs are generally these days "PATOK" meaning "IN". Hope it will not just be a fad; all these herbs are wonders of God's loving concern for his people---US.
Herbs are created for humanity and the rest of the creatures to keep us healthy and well. Hence we should also nurture them and love them.
How do we use Elumea to treat boil and abscess?
- Chop five (5) fresh leaves
- Apply them directly as poultice on the wound and surrounding area.
- Apply this twice a day
This is as simple as that. In using herbs, we don't have a lot of rituals to do that. Herbs are supposed to help man needed and as needed. Herbs are not substitutes to modern medicince. They can be great supplements though.
