Forgiveness leads to healing

Phyllis Rodriguez and Aicha el-Wafi have a powerful friendship born of unthinkable loss. Rodriguez’ son was killed in the World Trade Center attacks on September 11, 2001; el-Wafi’s son Zacarias Moussaoui was convicted of a role in those attacks and is serving a life sentence. In hoping to find peace, these two moms have come to understand and respect one another.

Aicha el-Wafi and Phyllis Rodriguez met around a shared tragedy — and their friendship has become a powerful symbol for forgiveness and dialogue.

Health Excusitis

Refuse to worry about your health. David’s book , The Magic of Thinking Big, is about thinking and doing that which brings about positive action, good health and more.

In the many years that I visited many care homes or nursing homes, many of the elderly clients worry a lot. Their doctors have prescribed anti-agitation or nervous disorder related pills. As a result of taking more than 8 kinds of pills a day, so many side effects can be felt from constipation to worsening of their health.

One client stopped all her meds and she lived a little longer with added happy disposition.

For the young population, know that worrying makes your brain cells create memory tangles that can lead to Alzheimer’s disease.

Higher vitamin D dietary intake is associated with lower risk of Alzheimer’s Disease

The 7-yr follow-up study concluded that higher vitamin D dietary intake was associated with a lower risk of developing AD among older women.

Hypovitaminosis D is associated with cognitive decline among older adults. The relationship between vitamin D intakes and cognitive decline is not well understood. Our objective was to determine whether the dietary intake of vitamin D was an independent predictor of the onset of dementia within 7 years among women aged 75 years and older.

Women who developed AD had lower baseline vitamin D intakes than nondemented  or those who developed other dementias . There was no difference between other dementias and no dementia.

Baseline vitamin D dietary intakes were associated with the onset of AD but not with other dementias. Being in the highest quintile of vitamin D dietary intakes was associated with a lower risk of AD compared with the lower 4 quintiles combined.

The Study

Four hundred and ninety-eight community-dwelling women (mean, 79.8 ± 3.8 years) free of vitamin D supplements from the EPIDemiology of OSteoporosis Toulouse cohort study were divided into three groups according to the onset of dementia within 7 years (ie, no dementia, Alzheimer’s disease [AD], or other dementias). Baseline vitamin D dietary intakes were estimated from self-administered food frequency questionnaire. Age, body mass index, initial cognitive performance, education level, physical activity, sun exposure, disability, number of chronic diseases, hypertension, depression, use of psychoactive drugs, and baseline season were considered as potential confounders.

Vitamin C helps in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease

Researchers at Lund University have discovered a new function for vitamin C. Treatment with vitamin C can dissolve the toxic protein aggregates that build up in the brain in Alzheimer’s disease. The research findings are now being presented in the Journal of Biological Chemistry.

The brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease contain lumps of so-called amyloid plaques which consist of misfolded protein aggregates. They cause nerve cell death in the brain and the first nerves to be attacked are the ones in the brain’s memory centre.

“When we treated brain tissue from mice suffering from Alzheimer’s disease with vitamin C, we could see that the toxic protein aggregates were dissolved. Our results show a previously unknown model for how vitamin C affects the amyloid plaques”, says Katrin Mani, reader in Molecular Medicine at Lund University.

“Another interesting finding is that the useful vitamin C does not need to come from fresh fruit. In our experiments, we show that the vitamin C can also be absorbed in larger quantities in the form of dehydroascorbic acid from juice that has been kept overnight in a refrigerator, for example”.

There is at present no treatment that cures Alzheimer’s disease, but the research is aimed at treatments and methods to delay and alleviate the progression of the disease by addressing the symptoms.

That antioxidants such as vitamin C have a protective effect against a number of diseases, from the common cold to heart attacks and dementia, has long been a current focus of research.

“The notion that vitamin C can have a positive effect on Alzheimer’s disease is controversial, but our results open up new opportunities for research into Alzheimer’s and the possibilities offered by vitamin C”, says Katrin Mani.

Health tips for mothers, a Mother’s Day gift

 

In our mother’s kitchen are many potent healing ways from parsley for reducing water retention, garlic and green tea for lowering blood pressure and cinnamon for helping regulate blood sugar.

But, we can still help our mothers achieve excellent health in many ways.

From massage to dietary supplements. Evening primrose oil has a profound effect on my body that I wanted to share its benefits to all. Evening primrose oil for skin, hormonal balance, allergies, heart and over-all anti-inflammatory action

 

Evening Primrose Oil Benefits

 

Evening Primrose Oil has been called the most sensational preventive discovery since vitamin C. It contains the pain relieving compound phenylalanine and is increasingly being used to treat chronic headaches. It is currently being studied all over the world as a treatment for aging problems, alcoholism, acne, heart disease, hyperactivity in children, symptoms of menopause, multiple sclerosis, weight control, obesity, PMS and schizophrenia. It has so many preventive and therapeutic qualities that it has become a standard part of recommendations of many herbalist for maintaining youth and preventing disease.

 

Evening Primrose Oil contains a high concentration of a fatty acid called GLA and it is this fatty acid that is largely responsible for the remarkable healing properties of the plant. In fact, Evening Primrose contains one of the highest concentrations known of this important substance and only a few other plants contain it at all. This makes Evening Primrose an important medicinal herb, and as studies continue, the list of benefits will likely become much longer. The gamma-linoleic acid, linoleic acid and other nutrients in this oil are essential for cell structure and improve the elasticity of the skin. These fatty acids also help to regulate hormones and improve nerve function aiding problems ranging from PMS to migraine headaches. The hormone balancing effect contributes to healthy breast tissue.

 

Specifically, evening primrose oil may help to:

 

Relieve the discomforts of PMS, menopause, menstruation, endometriosis and fibrocystic breasts:

 

By interfering with the production of inflammatory prostaglandins released during menstruation, the GLA in evening primrose oil can help to lessen menstrual cramps. It may also minimise premenstrual breast tenderness, irritable bowel flare-ups, and carbohydrate cravings, and help to control endometriosis-associated inflammation. Many PMS sufferers are found to have unusually low levels of GLA in their systems, which is why supplements might help so much. In women with fibrocystic breasts, the oil’s essential fatty acids can minimise breast inflammation and promote the absorption of iodine, a mineral that can be present in abnormally low levels in women with this condition. In menopause, it is widely reported that Evening Primrose oil reduces hot flushes and increases feelings of well being.

 

Ease the joint pain and swelling of rheumatoid arthritis:

 

Supplementation with evening primrose oil and other sources of GLA has been shown to lessen the joint pain and swelling of this crippling disease. A six-month study reported fewer signs of inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis sufferers taking capsules containing GLA than in those taking a placebo. In another trial, the number of tender joints and swollen joints dropped significantly with GLA but not with a placebo.

 

Prevent diabetes-associated nerve damage:

 

Research indicates that the GLA in evening primrose oil can help prevent, and in some cases even reverse, the nerve damage (neuropathy) so commonly seen with diabetes. In a year-long study, such symptoms as numbness, tingling, and loss of sensation in participants with mild diabetic neuropathy were less marked in those who took evening primrose oil than in those who took a placebo.

 

Reduce the symptoms of eczema:

 

In some cases, eczema develops when the body has problems converting dietary fats into GLA. Getting supplemental GLA from evening primrose oil may therefore be helpful. Some studies indicate that this oil can outperform a placebo in relieving eczema-related inflammation, as well as the itching, oozing, and flaking associated with this condition. By taking GLA, eczema sufferers may tolerate reduced doses of steroid creams and drugs, many of which cause unpleasant side effects.

 

Help treat acne and rosacea:

 

By working to dilute sebum, a thick oily substance that is oversecreted in some people with acne, the essential fatty acids in evening primrose oil may reduce the risk of pores becoming clogged and lesions developing. The oil’s EFAs help treat rosacea by reducing inflammation, controlling cells’ use of nutrients and by producing prostaglandins, which stimulate the contraction of blood vessels.

 

Combat damage from multiple sclerosis:

 

The abundant supply of essential fatty acids in evening primrose oil may be valuable in minimizing the inflammation associated with this progressive nerve disorder. The fatty acids may also contribute to healthy nerve development when taken over time.

 

Treat Alzheimer’s-related memory deficiencies:

 

By boosting the transmission of nerve impulses, evening primrose oil may be valuable in treating this progressive brain disorder.

 

Counter impotence and female infertility:

 

By promoting blood flow, the GLA in evening primrose oil can help treat a primary cause of male impotence; compromised circulation leading to impaired penile blood flow. The oil is often taken with vitamin C and ginkgo biloba for this purpose. In addition, when the oil is taken long term, GLA can help prevent blood vessel narrowing, often a consequence of plaque buildup from high cholesterol. By improving uterine function, GLA may also help those who are unable to conceive.

 

Nourish nails, scalp, and hair:

 

The rich stores of essential fatty acids in evening primrose oil not only prevent nails from cracking but also help to keep them generally healthy. In addition, the essential fatty acids nourish the scalp, making the supplement potentially valuable in treating a variety of hair problems.

 

Prevent alcohol withdrawal symptoms:

 

GLA prompts the brain to produce a specific type of prostaglandin called prostaglandin E, which works to prevent withdrawal symptoms such as depression and seizures by indirectly protecting the liver and nervous system.

Q: What is guarana?
A: Guarana is a popular herb that contains a caffeine-like substance called guaranine, which is like a chemical “first cousin” to caffeine. People who never drink anything with caffeine or do not eat chocolate because it has a component called theobromine, another chemical “first cousin” to caffeine, should be aware that Zeal contains a caffeine-like substance. The amount of guaranine in a serving of Zeal is equal to a cup of premium coffee. Guarana can increase mental alertness, fight fatigue and increase stamina and physical endurance.

Cellulite is poor blood flow and water retention

Vitamin C, A and E rich foods can help keep healthy skin and healthy body cells. Ginger is good for circulation. Many herbs and foods can be natural diuretic, reducing water retention thereby reducing cellulites.

Natural diuretic
More and more people are resorting to natural foods and herbs that exhibit diuretic properties instead of diuretic pills. Moderation is the watchword even in the case of natural diuretics.  Natural diuretics can aid in removal of excess fluids from the body and aid in treating of sciatica, kidney stone, lymphatic swelling, PMS, gonorrhea, liver disorders and high blood pressure.

  • Green tea is a natural diuretic food that has been in use for centuries in China.
  • Consumption of cranberry juice can aid in removal of excess fluid retention.
  • Apple cider vinegar exhibits natural diuretic properties and in addition maintains the potassium levels. It can be added to the salad dressing.
  • Dandelion is often used as a natural diuretic. 
  • Nettle has natural diuretic properties that facilitate good cleansing.
  • Dandelion leaf tea aids in detoxification and has a beneficial effect on those suffering from cystitis and urinary tract infections.
  • Fennel has carminative and diuretic properties and is frequently used in seasoning food.

Diuretic food

Natural foods with high water content such as parsley, watermelons and cucumbers help increase urination and better flushing out of toxins. Cucumbers are rich in sulfur and silicon that stimulate the kidneys into better removal of uric acid. Watercress and artichokes are also natural diuretic foods.

Asparagus contains asparigine – a chemical alkaloid that boosts kidney performance, thereby improving waste removal from the body.
Brussel Sprouts help in stimulating the kidneys and pancreas. This helps in better cleansing of cells.
Beets are natural diuretic foods that attack floating body fats and fatty deposits.
Oats contain silica – a natural diuretic.
Cabbage is known to aid breakage of fatty deposits, especially around the abdominal region.
Carrots are a rich source of carotene that speeds the metabolic rate of the body and hastens removal of fat deposits and waste.
Lettuce aids better metabolism and flushing of toxins.
Tomatoes are rich in Vitamin C that aid the metabolism and release of water from the kidney to flush out waste.
Other than the other excellent properties that Garlic possesses, it is a natural diuretic food that aids breakage of fat. Horseradish, raw onions and radish speed up your metabolism.

The Super Benefits of Super Oxide Dismutase

 

Super oxide dismutase (SOD) is a natural process that separates oxygen from hydrogen peroxide in the body to help cleanse it of harmful free radicals. SOD regularly performs this function in nearly every cell in the body.

 

To increase SOD activity, each serving of Zeal contains more than 3,000 mg of super oxide dismutase (SOD) blend, natural herbs that release a super “scavenger” to increase the body’s cleansing of free radicals. This natural antioxidant combines fructooligosaccharides, noni powder, acai powder, wild blueberry powder, milk thistle extract (silybum marianum) (seed), bacopa extract (bacopa monnieri) (aerial part), ashwagandha (withania somnifera) (root), green tea extract (camellia sinensis) (leaf), turmeric extract (curcuma longa) (rhizome) and natural herbs. To stimulate SOD activity, the nutrients in the Zeal Wellness pass from your digestive system into your bloodstream and are carried to the individual cells to do their health-promoting work

 

 

 

Connie’s comments:

 

Sub-lingual medications taken under the tongue has a faster absorption and the drug goes directly to the systemic circulation. Liquid tincture has a similar effect. Nutrients and drugs should be packaged for easy absorption. Some powder form of dietary supplements ( like the ones in the link below) are easily absorb than the capsules or tablets form plus there is no more filler or other additives added to them. Cleaning your body by getting rid of free radicals is the first step to delaying the aging process. My mother’s arthritis is now under control, thanks to the combination of turmeric and ginger, holy basil, rosemary and other antioxidants from the dietary supplements I have given her. She also cooks with ginger, garlic and onions and uses other healing ways such as therapeutic massage oil and creams, fish oil/omega/good oil, avoidance of food-causing allergies, stress and a healthy diet of fiber-rich veggies and fish. Evening primrose oil has helped my skin, which means that my tissues are also benefiting from it

Communities where people live longer

What do Seventh-Day Adventists in California, the residents of Sardinia, Italy and the inhabitants of the islands of Okinawa, Japan have in common? They enjoy the longest, healthiest lives on the planet. Dan Buettner assembled a team of researchers to seek out these “hotspots of human health and vitality,” which he calls Blue Zones, and to figure out what they do that helps them live so long.

Buettner, a world-renowned explorer and a writer for National Geographic, travels the world seeking out new Blue Zones (he’s found five, to date) and speaking at seminars and on TV, sharing the habits that lead to long life. He is the founder of Quest Network, and has set three world records for endurance cycling.

“Dan Buettner takes us on a journey to explore the secrets of longevity and in so doing introduces us to a world of joy in aging … at 91, this is very good news!”
Walter Cronkite

Connie’s comments: Hundreds of years ago, not only are men and women dependent on their garden, kitchen, hands and massage oil and potion in the areas of healing and health but also live in a community supporting each other where love and harmony abide.

Aging is a curable disease

Cambridge researcher Aubrey de Grey argues that aging is merely a disease — and a curable one at that. Humans age in seven basic ways, he says, all of which can be averted.

Aubrey de Grey, British researcher on aging, claims he has drawn a roadmap to defeat biological aging. He provocatively proposes that the first human beings who will live to 1,000 years old have already been born

A true maverick, Aubrey de Grey challenges the most basic assumption underlying the human condition — that aging is inevitable. He argues instead that aging is a disease — one that can be cured if it’s approached as “an engineering problem.” His plan calls for identifying all the components that cause human tissue to age, and designing remedies for each of them — forestalling disease and eventually pushing back death. He calls the approach Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS).

With his astonishingly long beard, wiry frame and penchant for bold and cutting proclamations, de Grey is a magnet for controversy. A computer scientist, self-taught biogerontologist and researcher, he has co-authored journal articles with some of the most respected scientists in the field.

But the scientific community doesn’t know what to make of him. In July 2005, the MIT Technology Review challenged scientists to disprove de Grey’s claims, offering a $20,000 prize (half the prize money was put up by de Grey’s Methuselah Foundation) to any molecular biologist who could demonstrate that “SENS is so wrong that it is unworthy of learned debate.” The challenge remains open; the judging panel includes TEDsters Craig Venter and Nathan Myhrvold. It seems that “SENS exists in a middle ground of yet-to-be-tested ideas that some people may find intriguing but which others are free to doubt,” MIT’s judges wrote. And while they “don’t compel the assent of many knowledgeable scientists,” they’re also “not demonstrably wrong.”

“Aubrey de Grey is a man of ideas, and he has set himself toward the goal of transforming the basis of what it means to be human.”

Quotes by Aubrey de Grey.
“It’s not just about life, of course; it’s about healthy life. Getting frail and miserable and dependent is no fun, whether or not dying may be fun.”

“[Anti-aging therapies will] never be perfect, but we’ll be able to fix the things that 200-year-olds die of before we have any 200-year-olds, and the same for 300 and 400 and so on.”

What controls aging?

Biochemist Cynthia Kenyon has found a simple genetic mutation that can double the lifespan of a simple worm, C. elegans. The lessons from that discovery, and others, are pointing to how we might one day significantly extend youthful human life.

When it comes to aging well, having “good genes” (or rather, mutant ones) is key, says Cynthia Kenyon. She unlocked the genetic secret of longevity in roundworms — and now she’s working to do the same for humans.

A cure for cancer

For decades, researcher Mina Bissell pursued a revolutionary idea — that a cancer cell doesn’t automatically become a tumor, but rather, depends on surrounding cells (its microenvironment) for cues on how to develop. She shares the two key experiments that proved the prevailing wisdom about cancer growth was wrong.

Paul Ewald asks, Can we domesticate germs?

 

Evolutionary biologist Paul Ewald drags us into the sewer to discuss germs. Why are some more harmful than others? How could we make the harmful ones benign? Searching for answers, he examines a disgusting, fascinating case: diarrhea.

After years of studying illness from the germs’ point of view, microbiologist Paul Ewald believes that Big Pharma is wrong about some very big issues. What’s right? The leader in evolutionary medicine posits radical new approaches.

 

 

Paul Ewald has a problem with modern medicine: It ignores the fact that many diseases of unknown origin can be linked to slow-growing infections caused by viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms.

Ewald — whose theory stems from both a formal education in biological sciences, ecology, and evolution, and a personal bout with diarrhea in the 1970s — aims to change this thinking. To that end, he has written popular news articles, academic papers, and two books (Evolution of Infectious Disease and Plague Time) that explain and expand his idea. Ewald is regarded as the leading expert in the emerging field of evolutionary medicine. He directs the evolutionary medicine program in the Biology department at the University of Louisville, Kentucky, and lectures worldwide.

Among other honors, Ewald was the first recipient of the Smithsonian Institution’s George E. Burch Fellowship in Theoretic Medicine and Affiliated Sciences, which was established to foster pioneering work in health sciences.

“Ewald smashe[s] the old, and unfortunately still widely accepted, notion that parasites and their hosts inevitably evolve toward a benign coexistence.”
