eat Eczema Now

By admin on

Eczema doesn’t have to be a life sentence. Despite the fact that conventional doctors tell you that there is no cure, you can put your eczema symptoms into permanent remission, and that’s the next best thing to a “take this pill once” cure.

You’re not going to cure eczema by putting creams on your itching skin. That is treating the symptom, not the root cause, and there is nothing wrong with that because you do want relief, but you need to get at the core reason you have eczema in the first place.

Chances are your eczema is caused by allergies and chemical sensitivities. “I’ve identified my allergies and eliminated them from my diet and environment. I’ve changed all products in my house that I might be sensitive to, and I avoid contact with any of those things in my day-to-day life, but I still have eczema,” you say. “I’ve done everything I can and I still have it. There must be no cure.” If you’ve done those things, you’re closer to a solution than you realize.

First of all, you need to change your diet. Stop eating processed foods. Eat only organically grown produce and organically raised animals.

Processed foods contain a lot of chemicals, some of which you may be sensitive to, and they contain very little nutrition. Non-organically raised produce is sprayed with pesticides and herbicides, and is fed chemical fertilizers. No matter how well you wash your produce, trace amounts of these toxins remain in and on the produce, and you ingest small amounts. Some remain in the body, building up over time. Non-organically farmed animals are given growth hormones and antibiotics. Those toxins remain in the meat you eat, and as with the produce, small amounts remain in your body, accumulating as time goes by.

Artificial chemicals aren’t used on organic produce. There are no trace amounts of toxins the fruits and vegetables, and they are full of essential vitamins and minerals. Organically raised animals are fed organic diets and aren’t given artificial growth hormones, so none of those things will find their way into your body.

After you change your diet, cleanse your body. A detox cleanse will remove the toxins from your cells and flush them out of your body. You can buy good detox cleanse products and reputable health food stores, or you can enlist the aid of a naturopathic doctor. When you start a cleanse it is likely you will feel slightly ill for a couple of days as a relative flood of toxins is released from your body, but as your body cleans up, you will feel better.

Rebuild your immune system. It has probably been compromised from years of lack of adequate nutrition and exposure to toxins. A naturopath can assist you in choosing the supplements that will rebuild your immune system to optimum health.

If you follow these steps, you should see an improvement in your eczema symptoms in a very short period of time. If you follow these steps and make the necessary life style changes, you can beat eczema and put it behind you forever.

Anyone Can Get Breast Cancer!

By admin on

Dear Ladies,

Finally, after years of research, a way of eliminating breast cancer has been revealed-

These methods of fighting Breast Cancer are tried and true. They work. Ask any woman who has had breast cancer and tried this program. They will tell you first hand that what I am providing you is an authentic, tried and tested remedy.

Here is a list of reasons why you should use my methods:

To help you cope with your breast cancer as you take steps to get rid of it for good. (Initially, breast cancer may not cause any symptoms. A lump may be too small for you to feel or to cause any unusual changes you can notice on your own). To put in your hand a guide that will teach you how to eat correctly. To put in your hand a guide that will give you the reason and purpose for why you developed breast cancer and what you need to do about it. To teach you the proper way to exercise that will benefit you in the short and long term. To help you develop a body that will be free of breast cancer. If you take my program seriously and do exactly what it says, and apply it to your everyday life, the next time you go to your doctor, you will be pleasantly surprised.

There have been people who took to heart my instructions and found their breast cancer went away within two to three months. Some found relief sooner, depending on the stage the cancer was in.

You may not experience the same results, but if you follow my program closely, you will find your body responding in kind and you’ll begin to feel better, have more energy, and even enjoy physical relationships again..

Your next question will be ‘Why this Guide when there are so many in the Market?’

For one reason, all those books on the market tell you how to deal with breast cancer, not how to get rid of it, or how to prevent it.

After 20 years of research and testing, I found that those who knew the reason they developed breast cancer took steps to educate themselves so they would know how to get rid of it and prevent it from returning.

At that time they applied my methods and found their breast cancer went away in a short period of time, never to return. In some cases, the doctor they went to were amazed by what happened.

Plus, my methods are not found online or in bookstores.

When I came up with the solution that worked, I preserved the original copies so no person could distort or misuse what I had created originally.

During the time I spent with many patients suffering from Breast Cancer I observed that if this deadly disease was not stopped or controlled, it could spread beyond the breast and end up in other areas of the body.

That is when I felt I must do everything in my power to alleviate this suffering.

So Ladies: You are not Alone…….We are Here to Help.

Acne Treatment Therapies And A Natural Healthy Alternative Like Evening Primrose Oil

By admin on

Acne treatment therapies focus upon two aspects of acne: its prevention and management, and the removal of its more lasting effects.

Looking at the latter first, acne scars can be unsightly, and there are several methods currently used either to remove them or to hide them. Some of the more radical are surgical, while others involve modifications the surface of the skin by means of techniques akin to sandpapering, and also cosmetic techniques.

However, such therapies are needed only if the condition is permitted to have a significant effect on your skin. There are therapies that can be used to mitigate the condition if not remove it altogether. Before discussing these it will be necessary to consider what causes acne, because without that knowledge there can be no effective treatment.

Acne is cause by blockage of the sebaceous pores in the skin. That blockage is generally caused by a mixture of dead skin cells and skin oil, otherwise known as sebum. Why should this occur with acne sufferers and nobody else, when all of us have the ingredients of acne as normal components of our skin? The answer lies in our hormones.

The reason that acne is most prevalent in teenagers is that the generation of sebum is promoted by our hormones: specifically the male hormones known as androgens that both males and females begin to create in quantity during puberty. These cause the sebaceous pores to enlarge, and sebum to be produced in larger than normal quantities.

The hormones also tend to disrupt the usual desquamation rate, or shedding of dead skin cells. What happens is that the skin cells within the pores begin to shed in clumps, rather than singly, and when mixed with the excess skin oil form a plug that clogs up the pores. This plug of oils and skin cells then gets contaminated with bacteria that in time initiate the immune reaction, resulting in pus being formed through the action of macrophages on the bacteria.

The therapy needed to reduce the incidence of acne, then, can be either proactive or retroactive. Proactively, they can reduce the production of the sebum/skin cell plug. Gamma linolenic acid (GLA) as found in Omega-6 oil can block androgen receptors and so decrease the amount of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) produced. The less the amount of DHT, then the less will be the severity of your acne.

Evening primrose oil contains large quantities of GLA, and even applying this topically on your skin will dilute the sebum and reduce the likelihood of sebum and skin cells blocking your pores. This is an extreme simplification of what GLA does, but it does accurately represent the end result of its use. There are also medications you can take to reduce the rate of shedding of your skin cells, so that your pores have less chance of being blocked.

Retroactively, you can apply antibiotics to kill off the bacterial that act on the plug and that initiate the immune response responsible for the lesions. You can also give your skin a good wash with an effective skin cleanser, including a mild antibiotic to enhance the cleansing of the bacterial plug. However, there are alternative treatments, such as the proactive diet control, and the use of vitamins and appropriate herbs to control or even prevent the condition.

When you think of diet, don’t think chocolate. Acne is not caused by eating too much chocolate, or even by fatty foods. We have already discussed the causes of acne, and if we can find any components in our diet that can create these conditions, then by eliminating them we should be able to avoid the condition. As a corollary, if we can identify any substances that could prevent androgens from creating excess sebum, or even control the androgens themselves, or that could help the skin cells to shed more evenly, then we could include these in our diet.

In fact such substances do exist. By going deep into the science, we will find that the secretion of testosterone is promoted by a hormone known as IGF-1 and also by insulin. IGF-1 stands for Insulin-like Growth Factor 1, and is important in the growth of children. It also promotes acne! Insulin does the same, and what that infers that anything in the diet that promotes the production of insulin will also promote acne.

What promotes insulin? Sugars and carbohydrates! Therefore, if you eat a diet low in sugars and carbs then you should have less production of sebum, and hence less acne. What this is leading to is that if you have a tendency to get acne; then switch your diet from carbohydrates and sugary foods to vegetables, grains and seafood. The Japanese get very little acne, which supports this theory.

You should also take foods rich in zinc, since a zinc deficiency has been found to lead to acne. Nobody knows why yet, but use the information and either take a zinc supplement or eat zinc rich foods such as shellfish. Strangely, it is a deficiency of zinc that causes an increase in testosterone, not the surplus of zinc provided by eating oysters! These have another effect.

There are also herbal treatments that can be effectively used for acne. Most are topical, and tea tree oil is one the more recent such treatments used to treat acne. Among the chemical constituents of tea tree oil is terpinen-4-ol, with powerful antimicrobial properties. Little wonder then that it is effective in preventing the bacterial infection of the sebaceous gland pores. The oil helps to dry out the skin, again creating conditions alien to bacteria.

You could use tea tree oil by itself, though many people simply mix it with the acne creams they are currently using. That makes them much more effective. Another option goes back to the zinc again, but rather than take it as a supplement, use it topically. Chamomile and lavender are useful in calming skin that has been inflamed both by over-zealous use of skin scrubs and also the immune system’s inflammatory response to the infection of the pores.

There are many healthy options to the severe pharmaceutical treatments offered by your physician. These can be used in place of, but preferably as supplements to, the treatment recommended by your doctor. Each of the natural treatments has a sound scientific basis, and if you suffer from acne can be well worth trying.

The Red Dress Lapel Pin Fights Womens Heart Disease

By admin on

If you were asked to name the leading cause of death for women in the United States, could you do it? Breast cancer, right?

Wrong. Heart disease kills one in three U.S. women each year about six times as many as breast cancer. The American Heart Association, in conjunction with other health organizations is trying to raise awareness of the risk of heart disease in women. One of the ways the AHA is trying to raise awareness is through the red dress lapel pins.

Although many people consider heart disease a mans disease, its an equal opportunity killer. In 2006, heart disease killed 315,930 women in the United States just about exactly half of the total number of heart-related deaths that year. The AHA created the Go Red for Women campaign featuring the red dress lapel pin to make people realize that heart disease is a serious threat to women.

Lapel pins have long been a way to show support for causes, including AIDS awareness, cancer research and support for those living with many chronic diseases. But the most common style, the ribbon-shaped lapel pin, has some drawbacks.

Ribbon lapel pins have been common for many years, usually with a specific color assigned to a specific illness or other cause. But with a limited color palette to choose from, it quickly becomes almost impossible for the casual observer to know what cause a particular ribbon lapel pin represents.

The red dress lapel pin, introduced in 2004, is meant to remind people that heart disease is not limited by gender, age or any other factor, and that women need to be conscious of their heart health. The simple red lapel pin is a low-key way to draw awareness to the cause, equally suited to an office or casual environment.

The red dress lapel pin, like the pink ribbon lapel pin that promotes breast cancer awareness, is a low-key way to get an instantly recognizable message to many people. Its distinctive dress silhouette is easily recognizable. Unlike most ribbon pins and other styles, it has only one known meaning. The unique dress shape, unexpected in a sea of ribbon lapel pins, might prompt people to ask what its about. That gives the wearer an opportunity to discuss the need for heart health in a way that the more commonly shaped ribbon lapel pins might not.

Thats not to say that other lapel pins cant make the same point. Red ribbon lapel pins also have a history of representing heart disease awareness, just not necessarily specifically for women. While February is American Heart Month, a red lapel pin in either style can easily serve as an awareness reminder throughout the year.

Ribbon lapel pins have a distinguished history of representing disease awareness campaigns. The first ribbon lapel pins were red strips of actual ribbon in the now-familiar looped shape. They were created in the early 1990s to promote AIDS awareness, and made their first appearance at the 1991 Tony Awards. The red dress lapel pin is one of the few awareness lapel pins that break free of the customary ribbon shape.
