To Your Health!

Information on Health, Nutrition and Alternative Medicine

The FDA has issued a proposed mandate that represents the greatest threat to dietary supplements since 1994. Back in the early 1990s, consumers were so alarmed by FDA bullying that they staged a massive revolt. It has been 17 years, but the FDA just issued draconian proposals as to how it intends to regulate what it now calls "new dietary ingredients". This includes many fish oil formulas and natural plant extracts.

We Have Nothing to Fear But Fear Itself

After the nuclear meltdowns in Japan, fears of radiation exposure caused a run on salt products in a variety of areas, including here in Gold Beach where requests for kelp and potassium iodide spiked considerably. We have nothing to fear but fear itself, however. At this time, there isn't any real threat from radiation to residents of Oregon.

Do You Know of Anyone Who Has Experienced an Open Heart Surgery?

Do you have a relative or friend who has cardiovascular or heart problems? If these folks are taking drugs daily for high blood pressure, high cholesterol or heart problems including blood thinners to prevent stroke, you should find this issue worth reading. Feel free to share it with others.

Modern Medicine Focuses on Diseases Instead of Wellness

Modern medicine still focuses on disease instead of wellness. In my opinion, that's simply the wrong approach! If you want to save on health care and sidestep the red tape so prevalent in the insurance industry, look to prevention. It's a lot cheaper to keep from getting sick in the first place.

Evaluate Your Quality of Life

Every new year provides us an opportunity to evaluate our quality of life and consider making some positive changes for our Life Journey. In this period of evaluation the subject of health is bound to come up. If it doesn't, then it is time to set some new priorities.

Talking About Dental Health

You should seriously consider using supplements such as CoQ10 for dental health. Some researchers consider gum disease to be a marker for CoQ10 deficiency. CoQ10 is also very important for cardiovascular and heart health and it enables every cell in your body to work more efficiently.

Coconut Oil Has Some Amazing Health Benefits

Back in the 1930's, a dentist named Dr. Weston Price traveled throughout the South Pacific, examining traditional diets and their effect on dental and overall health. He found that those eating diets high in coconut products were healthy and trim, despite the high fat concentration in their diet, and that heart disease was virtually nonexistent.

Medical Errors and Prescription Drugs Leading Cause of Death in U.S.

Ten years ago, Professor Bruce Pomerance of the University of Toronto concluded that properly prescribed and correctly taken pharmaceutical drugs were the fourth leading cause of death in the US. More recently, Johns Hopkins Medical School refined this research and discovered that medical errors and prescription drugs together may actually be the leading cause of death. Basically this means that the primary form of "health care" and treatment actually kills more people than any disease plaguing our society.

Reduce the Aging Process, Prevent Heart Disease, Cancer and Diabetes

You can slow down your aging process and help reduce heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Here are some tips from U.S. News and World Report on how to do it:

Suggestions to Support Healthy Aging

Most people want to maintain their bodily function well into their later years. Whether imbalances are caused by genetic predisposition, by normal wear and tear on our bodies, or by environmental and lifestyle factors, the proper nutrients can compensate and help our bodies maintain their dynamic homeostasis.

What is Metabolic Syndrome?

Metabolic refers to metabolism, or how the body uses energy. Metabolic syndrome is a collection of risk factors that, when combined, greatly increase a person's risk of developing heart disease and type 2 diabetes. You may have metabolic syndrome if you have at least three heart disease risk factors.

Is More Care Better Care?

Deep down, Americans tend to believe that more care is better care. We recoil from efforts to restrict care. However, it's easy to come up with arguments for why we need to do so.

No Financial Motivation to Practice Preventive Medicine in U.S.

The present practice of treating disease with pharmaceutical drugs and surgery that is practiced in the U.S. will continue to cause the increase of medical costs and eventually bankrupt the new health plan.

Economics of Good Health

Disease and disability are far more expensive than even the most costly health foods and supplements. If you don't take care of your body and continue to abuse it by eating the wrong foods and inactivity, the cost will be far higher than your grocery bills could ever be.

Your Perception is Everything to Your Health

When patients get better by ingesting a sugar pill, medicine defines it as the placebo effect. Rob Williams suggests that it would be more appropriate to refer to it as the perception effect. He refers to the belief effect to stress that our perceptions, whether they are accurate or inaccurate, equally impact our behavior and our bodies.

A Paradox in Disease Theory and the Confession of Louis Pasteur

Infectious disease medicine practiced today is based on the "germ theory" as put forward by Louis Pasteur (1822-1895). His theory viewed the body as a sterile machine that will operate properly unless a foreign substance is introduced. In contrast, the famous French physiologist, Claude Bernard (1813-1878) focused on the importance of the body's internal environment, contending that the whole must be sick before any germ can make us ill.

The Aging Process is a Challenge We All Must Face

There is a growing awareness in the medical community that a lot of what has been diagnosed and treated as depression among older people may instead be a natural process of reorientation. There's a kind of drawing-inward that seems to be part of the process of aging. Not a paranoid drawing-inward or being afraid of the world, just a kind of deepening.

CoQ10 Provides You Another Reason to Smile

Studies have shown that people with gum disease almost always have low levels of CoQ10. That's because in order for your gums to heal you need healthy levels of cellular energy and CoQ10 is the substance that energizes your cells. As early as the 1970s, researchers reported that CoQ10 dosages as low as 50 to 75 mg per day often healed deteriorating gums, sometimes within days.

Vitamin D Boosts Your Health All Around

Vitamin D is not "just a vitamin," but rather the only known substrate for a potent, pleiotropic (meaning it produces multiple effects), repair and maintenance seco-steroid hormone that serves multiple gene-regulatory functions in your body.

Facts About Statin Drugs and Cholesterol

It's safe to say that a drug intended to prevent heart disease, but which actually causes heart failure, is not the right treatment for most people. Statin drugs offer a "cure" that is far worse than the disease.

Surgery Is Risky Business

Every surgery, even a so-called "minor surgery," is potentially dangerous. Government statistics estimate that 12,000 people die each year from unnecessary operations. So why would doctors recommend unneeded surgeries? Besides the financial considerations to fill hospital beds and utilize surgical suites, physicians are stuck in the mindset that invasive procedures are the best treatment course for their patients.

Turning Healthy People into Patients

Direct-to-consumer drug ads on TV often plant a seed in your mind that you may be sick. Drug companies are masters at disease mongering - inventing non-existent diseases and exaggerating minor ones, with the end result making you rush to your doctor to request their drug solutions. This is particularly true for emotional problems like depression.

Modern Medicine About as Scientific as Throwing Darts

Medical journals, the supposed bastions of scientific research, have become little more than infomercials for drug and high-tech hospital procedures. This pollution of medical literature has been validated in recent years by numerous conventional physicians and policy makers.

Special Swine Flu Report

You can expect to see a lot of panic over this issue, but the key is to remain calm - this isn't the first time the public has been warned about swine flu. The last time was in 1976.

Consider Making Positive Changes For Your Life Journey

Evaluate your quality of life and consider making some positive changes for your life journey. What good is wealth in our lives if we have poor health? Good health is one of those things that we don't appreciate until it is gone.

The Greatest Force In The Universe: Your Mind

When thoughts are directed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire - thoughts become powerful. Every medical student learns, at least in passing, that the mind can affect the body, and that some people get better when they believe (falsely) they are getting medicine.

Can Cancer Be Caused By a Fungus Called Candida?

Oncologist T. Simoncini, M.D.'s research has led him to believe that something as simple as a fungus, Candida, is the leading cause of cancer; that cancer itself is in fact a fungus, and what we refer to as a tumor is nothing more than the body's attempt at protecting itself from that fungus.

Red Flag Concerns to Good Health

Here are some major red flags to keep an eye on as you wend your way through the health information universe.

Stroke Prevention Starts With Some Lesser Known Facts

Homocysteine has been getting attention recently as an important risk factor for hardening of the arteries. Although studies have yet to definitely prove that lowering homocysteine levels prevents strokes, the treatment is simple and safe enough that there's little risk in lowering your homocysteine levels while further studies are being done.

Are U.S. Vitamin Recommendations (RDA) Out of Date?

It was in 1941 when the first RDAs (Recommended Daily Allowances) for vitamins first came out. Clear little easy-to-understand numbers that let you know how much of a vitamin you needed to prevent a deficiency disease (like rickets or beri-beri). First we had the revised RDAs which morphed into the RDIs (Reference Dietary Intakes) and the DRIs (Dietary Reference Intakes). And let's not forget the AIs (Adequate Intakes) and the ULs (tolerable upper limits). This all could make your head spin just thinking about it.

AMA History, Splenda, Aspirin, Niacin Flush, The A1C Blood Test and More

The American Medical Association (AMA) was dictatorially led for the first half of the 20th century by Dr. George H. Simmons and his protégé Dr. Morris Fishbein. Simmons and Fishbein both served as general manager of the organization and as editor of its journal, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).

Risk of Autism

Some researchers estimate that the number of people suffering from mitochondrial dysfunction, which may lead to autism, is much more common than the current estimate of one in 4,000 people. In fact, it could be as low as one in 50, which would be staggering.

Chakra Energy Candles

Chakra energy candles combine metaphysics with aromatherapy and can facilitate psychic and physical healing. They are enhanced with essential oil blends selected for their aromatherapy benefits relative to balancing each chakra. As the chakra energy candles burn they release beneficial, therapeutic vapors.

MEDICAL HERBALISM:
The Science and Practice of Herbal Medicine

Medical Herbalism contains comprehensive information concerning the identification and use of medicinal plants by chemical structure and physiological effect, the art and science of making herbal medicine, the limitations and potential of viewing herbs chemically, and the challenge to current research paradigms posed by complex plant medicines. It also includes information on toxicology and contraindications, the issues involved in determining dosage and formulation types for an individual, guides to the different measurement systems and conversion tables, and the pros and cons of both industrial and traditional techniques.

With additional sections devoted to the principles of green medicine, the history of Western Herbalism, the variety of other medical modalities using medicinal plants, an extensive resource directory, and a discussion of treatments organized by body system, Medical Herbalism is the comprehensive textbook all students and practitioners of clinical herbalism need to develop their healing practices.

To try your hand at picking out a sound, click here.

It’s the bane (or savior) of every holiday cocktail party: the constant background buzz that makes it hard to hear the guy from accounting droning on. Now, researchers have taken a step toward understanding how people’s hearing systems pick out one sound among many.

The key is repetition, according to experiments reported the week of January 3 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Hearing a sound again and again in different auditory mixtures allows a person to separate it out and recognize it, the work suggests.

“Repetition alone may be a cue for sound segregation,” says Christophe Micheyl, a researcher in auditory perception and cognition at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, who was not involved in the study.

Scientists have long wondered how the hearing system can recognize individual sounds when natural environments rarely present a single sound in isolation to be learned. Researchers have accordingly dubbed it the “cocktail party problem.”

“The problem is that we think you need knowledge of individual sound sources in order to take a mixture and separate it, but if all you have are mixtures to begin with it’s not clear how we do that,” says Josh McDermott, an auditory researcher at New York University and leader of the team that performed the new work.

Experiments on the cocktail party problem are tough because people are already familiar with most natural sounds. For instance, playing a recording of a bottle dropping and a dog barking at the same time allows a person to draw on prior knowledge of each of those sounds, says McDermott.

To get around that, McDermott and his team synthesized new sounds by combining acoustic properties from spoken words and animal vocalizations with white noise. The researchers played these synthetic sounds in various combinations to college students, then played one sound back in isolation and asked if it had been in the mix the students had just heard.

Hearing two sounds played together once didn’t help the subjects improve their identification over chance, even if the researchers played the target sound first so the students knew what they were supposed to be listening for. But then the scientists played a sequence in which the target sound was mixed repeatedly with different “distractor” sounds. Suddenly the students became much better at picking out the target sound, perhaps because they heard it repeating through the different mixtures.

“What’s new about the study is it suggests one way the auditory system could get off the ground — that is, using sounds that occur repetitively,” says McDermott.

The work could help explain why certain animals, like birds and monkeys, often repeat calls in rapid succession, he adds. The creatures might be doing more than just trying to make sure their message is heard — they might be trying to help others pick out their sound in a noisy environment like a rainforest.

The findings make sense in light of other work that suggests repeating meaningless sounds embedded in noise allows people to create memories of those sounds, says Shihab Shamma, an electrical engineer at the University of Maryland in College Park who studies speech and hearing.

The new work might also open up new avenues of research using synthesized sounds, Shamma adds. Most earlier work on the cocktail party problem used only simple sounds, he says, but “this paper offers a way forward with more complex, natural-like stimuli.”

Indeed, McDermott is already planning more experiments using his novel sounds to study how familiarity with a sound affects how it is heard in a mix.

TRY IT YOURSELF

Listen to this sequence of sounds, and see if the final one in the series (the one that comes after the pause) was part of what you heard earlier. As the number of different sounds in the mixture increases, it should get easier to hear that the final sound was indeed included in the earlier sequence.

CLEVELAND, Ohio (Ivanhoe Newswire) -- It's joked about as being a senior moment. Becoming confused, forgetful or dizzy is common among older adults, but these symptoms may not be just a sign of age. They could be a sign of something much more serious and treatable.

When George Cheresne started feeling arthritic, having blackouts and falling down, he thought his troubles were just a part of growing older -- and so did those closest to him.

"He had a stare about him," Cheresne's sister Toni McCollum told Ivanhoe.

"All of the sudden, he just kind of leaned over, and a cigarette dropped out of his hand," Cheresne's best friend John Vail told Ivanhoe.

It wasn't old age. It was epilepsy. When Cheresne had a seizure, there were no jerky movements that most of us associate with epilepsy. He moved his mouth a little, but for the most part, he just zoned out. Signs of senior epilepsy include repeated episodes of losing consciousness, dizziness, and language or behavioral changes.

"Older people have more staring spells or even pass out when having a seizure," Lara Jehi, M.D., an epileptologist at Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio, told Ivanhoe.

Epilepsy affects about 300,000 seniors.

"The longer you let it drag on, the more damage it can do to the brain," Dr. Jehi said.

Treatments include medication and surgery. Cheresne had the part of his brain removed that was causing the problem. Now, he feels 100 percent better.

"I can say for sure I have not had a seizure since the surgery," Cheresne said.

His family and friends have the man they knew back.

"It's in his eyes," his sister said. "That look is gone."

Doctors believe epilepsy could be a side effect of stroke, and symptoms are often misdiagnosed as heart problems. The risk of getting epilepsy is at least four-times higher in people older than 60.
