Ever since Adam had to look for his own food after being banished from the Garden of Eden, heartburn was to stay with mankind ever after. Eve was slightly better off, surviving on raw honey and plenty of apples throughout the remaining days of her life and in doing so, saving her delicate esophagus from GERD (Gastro-esophageal Reflux Disease) or acid reflux attacks. However, men and women down the ages have not been spared for the faults of their first parents and heartburn has become a common ailment for mankind ever since. Taking cues from Eve however, we have tried using honey and apple cider vinegar to find relief from GERD induced heartburn. [...] When you have noticed that you are getting large bruises at the slightest contusion, you have every right to be concerned, and when you bring the issue up to your friends, there is a good chance that they are going to be concerned for you as well. When it comes to looking at easy bruising, there are a lot of theories as to why it might be a problem for you, and some of these theories are fairly spot on, while others seem completely out of the blue. One of the conditions that is often associated with easy bruising is the relatively rare Von Willebrand’s disease, and the question of whether you have it might be one that troubles you. What is this disorder and what might it mean to you? [...] In his book Cancer is not a Disease: It’s a Survival Mechanism, Andreas Moritz argues for the revolutionary (with respect to mainstream Western medicine) idea that our view of disease is outdated and needs to be replaced with a more comprehensive and holistic understanding of health. While his insights are revolutionary they are not new. A few years ago Bob Barefoot of Coral Calcium fame argued that our understanding of cholesterol and the role it plays in disease is backwards. Cholesterol is not the cause of heart disease but a survival mechanism, the body’s desperate attempt to heal itself as a last resort measure by trying to prevent the blood vessels from cracking and rupturing. The true cause of the disease is somewhere else. Similarly, Moritz argues that cancer is not a disease but the body’s attempt to survive the real dis-ease by producing cells that don’t die. Cancer is a symptom, not the cause or origin of disease. He is a proponent of bridging the mind/body connection and elevating emotional and mental factors to a central role in the consideration of disease factors. While the book is provocative and helpful in leading us to a greater understanding of disease, [...] Image via Wikipedia As you may know, Vitamin D has been making headlines lately, and for good reason. Scientists are beginning to discover the tremendous health benefits of this long neglected vitamin, and unfortunately, how deficient most people are in it. If you don’t get much sun, odds are you don’t get enough vitamin D. African-Americans and others with dark skin, as well as older individuals, have much lower levels of vitamin D due to less creation of the vitamin from exposure to sunlight. A normal African American with dark skin color has a sun protection factor of 15-30. They can stay out 15-30 times longer in the sun, but the downside is that an African American who is dark skinned would need approximately 7-10 times the amount of sun exposure as a light skinned person. If you put a sunscreen on with an SPF of 8, it reduces your ability to make vitamin D in your skin by more than 95%. A sunscreen of 15 reduces vitamin D production by an astounding 98%. Worldwide, it is estimated that more than 1 billion across all ethnicities and age groups have insufficient amounts of vitamin D in their blood. In [...] |
