• Diet for good health - How?

  5 Jun 2007 12:41:18 GMT
  DIET - How to Have a Healthy Diet (most of the time) Most cases of serious illness and death are caused by poor diet. Insufficient consumption of fish, fruit and vegetables is as bad for human health as smoking. This web page, updated regularly, provides you with information on healthy diet choices. Please keep in mind that you don't have to eat perfectly all the time. I personally strive to live my life as an A rather than an A+. It's too hard to try to be perfect all the time. Make changes slowly and accept the fact that there may be times when you binge on unhealthy snacks and foods. I personally try to do my best and have a healthy diet, but I have my weaknesses too. For instance, I love chocolate and occasionally I have a candy bar or ice cream, or a piece of pie. So, don't be hard on yourself if you can't follow the recommendations perfectly. I am often asked which supplements I recommend to take on a regular basis in addition to a healthy diet. First makes sure you are doing your best with good dietary choices as listed below

• Stroke - who will get it? FAQ, research, drugs, prevention etc

  4 Jun 2007 08:26:05 GMT
  A Stroke can come in two major forms: 1) A blood clot in a blood vessel in the brain which reduces or stops blood flow to parts of the brain 2) A hemorrhage or bleeding in brain tissue. When blood flow to the brain is disrupted by a stroke, brain cells can die or be damaged from lack of oxygen. Brain cells can also be damaged if bleeding occurs in or around the brain. The resulting neurologic problems are called cerebrovascular disorders because of the brain (cerebrum) and blood vessel (vascular) involvement.

• Cholesterol & Triglyceride - Health Articles about Cholesterol

  4 Jun 2007 08:22:04 GMT

  Fats, also called lipids, serve as a major source of fuel for the body's metabolic processes. Fats are obtained from food or formed in the body, mostly in the liver, and can be stored in fat cells for future use. Fats are essential components of cell membranes, of the myelin sheaths that surround nerve cells, and of bile. The two major fats in the blood are cholesterol and triglyceride. The fats attach themselves to certain proteins so they can travel throughout the bloodstream; the combined fats and proteins are called lipoproteins. The major lipoproteins are chylomicrons, very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), low-density lipoproteins (LDL), and high-density lipoproteins (HDL). HDL cholesterol is the good cholesterol while LDL cholesterol is called the bad cholesterol.

  Abnormal levels of fats circulating in the bloodstream, especially high cholesterol, can lead to long-term problems. The risk of having atherosclerosis and coronary artery or carotid artery disease (and therefore the risk of having a heart attack or stroke) increases as a person's total cholesterol level increases. Low cholesterol levels are therefore generally better than high cholesterol levels, although extremely low cholesterol levels may not be healthy either. A normal cholesterol level is probably 140 to 200 milligrams of cholesterol per deciliter of blood (mg/dL). The risk of a heart attack more than doubles when the total cholesterol level approaches 300 mg/dL. Getting a cholesterol test every 3 years after age 45 is a good idea, particularly for those who are overweight or have a history of heart disease. There is no proof at this time that lowering cholesterol levels through the use of statin drugs makes a person live longer. Lowering high cholesterol with nutrients

  There's still much research that needs to be done before we can make any firm recommendations regarding the use of supplements to lower cholesterol levels. In the meantime, there is some preliminary research that suggests the following nutrients and herbs should be looked into. I will update this cholesterol page as more studies becomes available. If you click each link, you will find more information that may be useful to you. Please discuss with your physician to see if they are appropriate for you. Also, see below for dietary suggestions on how to manage high cholesterol levels.

• Prostate Cancer and Prostate problem

  4 Jun 2007 07:47:18 GMT
  Cancer is when cells in the body grow out of control. Prostate cancer is a group of abnormal cells in the prostate. Prostate cancer can be aggressive, which means it grows quickly and spreads to other parts of the body. When cancer spreads, doctors say the cancer has "metastasized." Or it may be slow growing and stay in the prostate, causing few if any problems. Three out of four cases of prostate cancer are of the slow-growing type that is relatively harmless. Prostate cancer is the most common type of cancer found in American men, other than skin cancer. The American Cancer Society estimates that there are about 200, 00 new cases of prostate cancer in the United States each year, and about 40, 000 men will die of this disease.

• Breast Cancer Basic Facts - faq & research

  Breast Cancer Basic Facts

  Breast cancer is the most common non-skin malignancy in women in the United States and is second only to lung cancer as a cause of cancer -related deaths. Nearly 9 out of 10 women overestimate how likely they are to develop breast cancer in their lifetimes. In one study, a group of 175 women estimated that the chance of developing breast cancer was, on average, 46 percent -- much higher than the actual average risk of 13 percent. Oral contraceptive use is a risk factor for premenopausal breast cancer. There is no proof at this time that screening for breast cancer with a mammogram in women below age 50 saves lives. Natural Supplements for Breast Cancer The field of prevention or treatment of breast cancer with supplements or alternative methods is very early and no firm answers can be given at this time, however I wanted to mention a few compounds that have been studied in relation to breast cancer.

• Diabetes articles - faq - research

  4 Jun 2007 07:03:07 GMT
  Diabetes mellitus results when the body doesn't produce enough insulin to maintain normal blood sugar levels or when cells in the body don't respond appropriately to insulin. People with type I diabetes mellitus (insulin-dependent diabetes) produce little or no insulin at all. In type II diabetes mellitus (non-insulin-dependent diabetes), the pancreas continues to manufacture insulin, sometimes even at higher than normal levels. However, the body develops resistance to its effects and the sugar in the blood does not enter the cells as well as it should resulting in higher blood sugar levels. Type II diabetes usually begins after age 30 and becomes progressively more common with age. Obesity is a risk factor for type II diabetes; 80 to 90 percent of the people with diabetes are obese. Natural Supplements for Diabetes Treatment Before you embark on ingesting supplements, have a discussion with your health care provider to see if they are appropriate for you. If you doctor is not familiar with these herbs and nutrients, you may recommend he or she read this information. If you do take supplements for your diabetes, keep your dosages low. Further on I discuss some natural, non-supplement ways to treat diabetes.  Click here to read more

• Schizophrenia - FAQ - research by Phd

  4 Jun 2007 07:01:17 GMT

  Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder with a profound impact on patients, their caregivers and society.

  Schizophrenia is associated with abnormalities of multiple neurotransmitter systems, including dopamine, serotonin, GABA, and glutamate. Some mental health experts have called for the term schizophrenia to be dropped, saying it has no scientific validity, is imprecise and stigmatizing. "It is a harmful concept, " says Professor Marius Romme, a visiting professor of social psychiatry at the University of Central England in Birmingham. He adds that symptoms such as delusions, hearing voices and hallucinations are not the results of the illness but may be reactions to traumatic and troubling events in life. Richard Bentall, a professor of clinical psychology at the University of Manchester, said the concept of schizophrenia is scientifically meaningless. "It groups together a whole range of different problems under one label -- the assumption is that all of these people with all of these different problems have the same brain disease, " he added. Paul Hammersley of the University of Manchester who recently helped launch The Campaign for the Abolition of the Schizophrenia Label (CASL), said there is no agreement on the cause of the illness or its treatment. One expert has called for replacing the term schizophrenia with the label dopamine dysregulation disorder, which may more accurately reflect what is happening in the brain of someone who is psychotic.
