A
Trip Through the Digestive System
We take you through the entire digestive tract and cover every organ. It
would be good to understand the factory that runs this energy processing
center we call the digestive system. Click
here to start.
Ancient
Remedies in Use Today
Thousands of years ago, physicians employed surprisingly sophisticated
healing techniques. Now scientists from around the world are unearthing-and
validating-many of those life-extending medical secrets.
How
to Get More Vegetables in Your Diet
Americans are falling short of eating the number of vegetables recommended
by the USDA. It may take a little creativity and planning on your part to
help the nation continue to climb out of this vegetable slump, but you can
do it. Make a note of the ideas you'd like to try.
How
to Have a Healthy Heart
From what to eat, to how to exercise, to how heart disease is diagnosed,
this has all of the details. Click
here for
the facts.
Is
Organically Grown Food More Nutritious?
This article is a summary of a review article entitled “Effect of
Agricultural Methods on Nutritional Quality: A Comparison of Organic with
Conventional Crops” by Dr. Worthington which appeared in Alternative
Therapies, Volume 4, 1998, pages 58-69.
The
Atkin's Diet
Diets high in sugar and refined carbohydrates like bread, pasta, cereal, and
other mainly "low-fat" processed foods increase your body's production of
insulin. When insulin is at high levels in the body, the food you eat can
get readily converted into body fat, in the form of triglycerides (to top it
off, high triglyceride levels in the body are one of the greatest risk
factors for heart disease). Find out more.
The
Benefits of Enzymes
An important branch of twentieth century nutritional research, running
parallel to and equal in significance to the discovery of vitamins and
minerals, has been the discovery of enzymes and their function.
The
Health Benefits of Grassfed Animal Products
When you switch from grainfed to grassfed animal products, you instantly
create a more nutritious, wholesome diet. First of all, you eliminate a lot
of "bad" fat from your diet. When cattle, sheep, and bison are raised on
pasture, their meat is naturally very lean. For example, a sirloin steak
from a grassfed steer has about one half to one third the amount of fat as a
similar cut from a grainfed steer. In fact, grassfed meat has about the same
amount of fat as skinless chicken or wild deer or elk. When meat is this
lean, it actually lowers your LDL cholesterol levels. Get the details.
Understanding
Digestion & Assimilation
The digestion and assimilation of food is accomplished by taking large
pieces of foods and breaking them down into very small molecules. These food
molecules can then be absorbed into the blood and used by the body as
nutrients.
Why
You Should Eat Organic Meat
Why shouldn't I buy my meat in the store? Most often the beef you buy at the
supermarket has been injected with growth hormones soon after birth.
Generally these hormones contain estrogens. There has been enough press
about these estrogens causing increased risk of breast and prostate cancers,
so we don't need to go into that here. The beef is normally finished in a
feed lot where the cows stand for weeks in the cold wind, hot sun or mud up
to their bellies. These conditions do nothing but foster disease so the
animals are routinely fed antibiotics. It's no wonder germs are becoming
increasingly resistant when we continually consume antibiotics in the foods
we eat.
You
Are What Your Animals Eat
Few scientists seem to care about the vital link between the diet of the
animal and the diet of the consumer. "Feed animals anything you want," the
research seems to suggest, "and it makes no difference to the people who eat
them." Does this make sense?
What YOU can do to help
Here's your chance to change the face of health care. Your opinion and most
importantly your ACTION CAN and DOES make a difference. We've provided many
links to on-line petitions that only take a few minutes to complete.
