NATURAL HEALTH & BEAUTY

Welcome back!

I was reading an article by Virginia Thomas, a certified Pilates instructor (among other qualifications), on breathing.

Apparently, the majority of people don’t breathe properly for a number of reasons. These reasons could include poor posture, or stress, or lack of exercise.

Why is this bad for your health? Well, oxygen levels in your body are depleted, energy level is lowered, toxins accumulate and it taxes your immune system. Bad news!

Test yourself to ensure you are breathing properly. Place one hand on your abdomen, and the other on your chest. Take a breath naturally and notice if your abdomen rises. If it does, you are breathing correctly.

Read about the five Tibetan yoga exercises that include proper breathing to restore your youthful looks and vitality. Most people usually see and feel results within three months.

Hi,

We try to keep you updated with all health news, both good and not so good.

The following is a disturbing excerpt from the latest “What Doctors Don’t Tell You” newsletter:

“CORONARY BYPASS: A quarter fail in the first year”

Coronary artery bypass surgery is one of the wonders of modern medicine. While the technique of vein grafting can give heart patients a new lease on life, it’s also one with a far higher failure rate than specialists like to admit in public.
A recent study highlighted the problems, and now heart consultants are confirming that the failure rate is as high as researchers have been suggesting.
Vein grafts fail in more than a quarter of all cases, usually within the first year, and at least one vein becomes blocked in 40 per cent of patients.
Unfortunately, the drug of choice – edifoligide – to prevent vein graft failure is not effective, as researchers and consultants have both discovered.
(Source: Journal of the American Medical Association, 2006; 295: 1513-15).

But, there is also some good news in the excerpt. Did you know that the heart has an in-built healing mechanism, and starts creating new artery systems around blocked ones?

Hello,

We have another snippet of useful health information for you.

This information is from the Oral Oncology journal.

Do you know what oral leukoplakia is?

Well, it’s a mucous membrane disorder in the mouth. It is caused by irritation, usually from smoking, or rough spots on teeth. A lesion commonly develops on the tongue or inside the cheek, and about 3 % of such lesions can become cancerous.

Researchers conducted tests on 60 people suffering from this disorder, using a placebo, a small dose of 4 mg of lycopene, and a larger dose of 8 mg of lycopene. After 3 months, 55 % of the 8 mg test group had a complete absence of lesions, 25% of the 4 mg group were without lesions, but none of the placebo group were cured.

You can get 8 mg of lycopene from a five ounce tomato. It will be best absorbed by your body if it is pasted and cooked in olive oil.

Of course, an easier way to a healthy mouth, gleaming teeth, fresh breath and reduced dental bills is detailed for your reading pleasure at http://www.youngagainforever.com/tooth-soap.htm

URGENT Health Advisory to All Contact Lens Wearers: Special Issue
by www.SixWise.com

People who wear contact lenses may be at risk of a rare but serious eye infection caused by the Fusarium fungus. Over 100 cases of the infection, called Fusarium Keratitis, are being investigated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) - just since April 9, 2006.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, along with the CDC, have issued an alert to both health care practitioners and patients that the infection may be linked to Bausch & Lomb ReNu cleaning solution, or a generic product made by the same company.

Since April 9, 2006, 109 cases of Fusarium Keratitis are being investigated by the CDC and authorities across 17 states.

Risk Of Permanent Vision Loss And Corneal Transplant

Microbial keratitis is a severe infection of the cornea, which tends to have rapidly developing symptoms, including:

Tissue necrosis and inflammation

Corneal ulceration

Sensitivity to light

Pain, redness and swollen tissue affecting the eye

Permanent vision loss

Need for a corneal transplant

According to the FDA, several patients have already experienced permanent vision loss and many have needed corneal transplants.

The 109 cases of Fusarium Keratitis have been spread across the following 17 states:

California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan,
Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee,
Texas, Vermont

How to Protect Yourself

“This is a serious infection and soft contact lens users should be mindful of the potential to develop this problem. We’re advising consumers to practice good basic hygiene and follow manufacturers’ instructions for proper use, cleaning and storage of their lenses, and report any signs of infection to their doctors,” said Dr. Daniel Schultz, FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health director.

The FDA and CDC have issued the following preventative advice for the estimated 30 million soft contact lens wearers in the United States:

Wash your hands with soap and water before touching your lenses (lint-free method)

Replace your lenses according to the timetable given to you by your doctor

Carefully follow the instructions given to you by your doctor and manufacturer regarding cleaning and storage of the lenses

Replace your contact lens case every three to six months

Make sure you keep your contact lens case clean

If you experience redness, pain, tearing, increasing light sensitivity, blurry
vision, discharge or swelling — remove the lenses immediately and see your doctor

To minimize the number of germs on your lenses, use the “rub and rinse” lens cleaning method (rather than the “no-rub” method)

Further, sleeping with your contact lenses in may increase the risk for microbial keratitis, so removing them before bed is recommended.

26 of 28 Patients Used Bausch & Lomb ReNu Cleaning Solution

Of the 30 patients who have been investigated fully to date, 28 used soft contact lenses and two used no contact lens at all. Among the 28 soft lens users:

26 used Bausch & Lomb ReNu cleaning solution, or a generic brand made by the same company

5 of those 26 used other solutions along with the ReNu brand

9 of the patients kept their contacts in overnight

Despite these findings, no definitive link has been made between the eye infections and ReNu solution.

“It is important to note that some of the affected patients had used other solutions in addition to the ReNu brand, and that the source of this fungus has not yet been identified. But we’re working with CDC and Bausch & Lomb — and we’re investigating other possible causes — to prevent these infections,” Dr. Schultz said.

In the meantime, Bausch & Lomb has voluntarily stopped shipping ReNu Moisture Loc and is looking into the infections. In February 2006, the company voluntarily suspended sales of its ReNu multi-purpose solutions in Singapore and Hong Kong after several eye infections were reported.

Microbial Keratitis Relatively Rare

Wearing contact lenses, particularly overnight, is one of the main risk factors for infectious keratitis — contact lens wearers have an 80 times greater risk of corneal infection than healthy non-wearers, according to the Association of Optometric Contact Lens Educators.

Still, the incidence of infectious keratitis is still relatively low. It’s estimated that 20 in 10,000 hydrogel contact lens users who wear their lenses overnight will be affected, compared to 4 in 10,000 who only wear them during the day. Meanwhile, infectious keratitis rates for rigid contact lens users (who use them during the day) are about 1 in 10,000.

Please Email This Health Alert to Anyone You Know Who Wears Contact Lenses.

Fungal keratitis, specifically, is more common in warm climates, such as in the southernmost parts of the United States. In this region, for instance, 35 percent of microbial keratitis cases are of the fungal variety, compared to just 1 percent in New York. Fungal keratitis linked to Fusarium varies from 25 percent to 62 percent, depending on region.

The FDA has advised people who have remaining stocks of ReNu Moisture Loc to use the product with caution and report any eye symptoms to a health care practitioner immediately.

Hello there!

Welcome back unless, of course, this is your first visit!

Too many of us are so tense with the pressures of everyday living that we have trouble falling asleep, or sleeping through the night. This is considered an annoyance, as you feel fatigued and irritable the next morning. Most of us need eight hours of restful sleep.

But researchers have come up with a more ominous conclusion – middle-aged people, who sleep for less than five hours a night, face double the risk of developing high blood pressure. The test group comprised almost 5000 participants, and the study was published in the journal “Hypertension”.

Blood pressure, as we all know, is an insidious killer as we may not even know we have it until after it has done its damage!

The logic behind the findings appears to be that sleep allows the heart to slow down and blood pressure to drop for a significant part of the day.

However, the study did not find a link between lack of sleep and blood pressure problems in people over 60. Researchers conjecture that this could be because older people naturally have more trouble falling, and staying, asleep and, possibly, because those with blood pressure problems may not survive into their later years.

Hello visitors,

Here is some fascinating information that will benefit you or someone in your family.
It concerns the growing problem in the Western world of being overweight, with all its attendant health issues.

One of the basic reasons, experts tell us, for gaining weight is because we consume more calories than we expend in energy output. So, we are constantly exhorted to either eat less or exercise more, or practice a combination of both!

However, there is another delightful method to add to your weight loss regimen, if you or a family member practice one. It works on the principle of “negative calories”. Some foods actually possess this useful property. So, you can actually lose weight by eating them because you expend more calories in the eating process than you gain from them.

And what are two of these marvelous foods? Celery and apples!

Looking for ways to cut your calorie intake? Eat celery and apples. The net calories of these whole foods is actually negative because celery and apples deliver fewer calories than the calories you burn by eating them.

Another effective weight loss method is to suppress your appetite so that you can eat a healthy adequate meal, without the temptation to eat that little bit extra that leads to those unwanted pounds around the waist and bottom. This method is used by a tribe in Africa. They consume a certain plant of the cactus family before they go on a long trek, so that they don’t suffer hunger pangs. You can learn more about this, and its easy availability, at http://www.youngagainforever.com/weight_loss.html

Welcome and thanks for visiting!

Please read this – for your own sake, for the sake of your family, or for the sake of a stranger whose life you could very well save.

I have created a précis of the article that was sent to me, because I know your time is valuable. However, this is INVALUABLE, so read on ……
Most people are under the impression that if one suffers a stroke, one immediately keels over and dies, or falls over paralyzed. This is not necessarily so. A person can have a stroke without even knowing it, and die a few hours later from brain damage if untreated.

A neurologist opined that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can probably
reverse the effects of a stroke. He said the essence to survival was getting a
stroke recognized, diagnosed and getting to the patient within 3 hours of suffering the stroke. This is often not done, as the fact that a stroke has occurred is not recognized!

Here is a fast, effective way to ascertain if a stroke has occurred. If, for any reason, you suspect that a person in your presence is suffering from, or has just suffered, a stroke, ask the following three questions:

1. Ask the individual to SMILE.

2. Ask the individual to RAISE BOTH ARMS.

3. Ask the individual to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (coherently).
Example: “It is a beautiful day today”

If he or she has trouble with any of these tasks, call paramedics immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. After discovering that a group of non-medical volunteers could identify facial weakness, arm weakness and speech problems, researchers urged the general public to learn these three questions.
They presented their conclusions at the American Stroke Association’s annual meeting last February.
Widespread use of this test could result in prompt diagnosis and treatment of the stroke and prevent brain damage.

I hope this will help you to save a life someday.
