*** TOP NATURAL HEALTH NEWS STORY OF THE WEEK ***
Sickle Cell Disease and Fish Oil
"Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder that affects red blood cells. Under certain conditions, the red blood cells of individuals with sickle cell disease take on a crescent-like shape rather than the normal round shape. Such distorted cells have difficulty passing through small blood vessels, and may block them. Such "logjams" cause pain and damage to tissues supplied by blocked vessels. A recent study found that essential fatty acids from fish oil may help prevent these episodes."

Yoga for moms-to-be
 Preparing the body, mind and spirit for parenthood
"More and more women are turning to yoga both pre- and postpartum, as is evidenced by the growing number of yoga studios popping up around the
country that offer those specialized classes.  Proponents say yoga during pregnancy can actually help a woman prepare for childbirth and parenthood by
getting her (and dad!) into mental, physical and spiritual shape - gently."

Bone up on your diet
"Tufts University researchers recently reported that potassium and magnesium can help prevent osteoporosis in men. A 4-year study of 600 men found that those with the lowest intake of potassium- and magnesium-rich foods lost roughly four times more bone density in their hips than those who ate the highest amounts. "Potassium and magnesium reduce acidity in the blood," explains Katherine Tucker, Ph.D., the study author. "When blood is acidic, minerals in the bone may leach out, resulting in osteoporosis." Spinach, oats, and wild rice  are good  sources of both magnesium and potassium."

*** SHORT HEALTH/SAFETY TIPS FOR THE WEEK ***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOSEBLEEDS -  To stop the a common nosebleed, use these steps:
1.    Sit or stand upright.  This slows the flow of blood in the veins of the nose. Do not tip your head back.
2.    Pinch your nose with your thumb and forefinger for 10 minutes without relieving pressure and breathe through your mouth.
3. If the bleeding continues at this point, call your doctor or call  911.


THAWING FOOD - To avoid the development of harmful bacteria when thawing food, frozen food should be thawed in the refrigerator, in a microwave oven, or in cold water, but never at room temperature.


NASAL WASH - "Using warm water to cleanse the nostrils is not a new idea. The procedure is described in ancient yoga and Ayurvedic literature, where it is referred to as jala neti or water cleansing. Cleaning the nostrils with water was common in some European cultures several generations ago. It was still a common medical practice 40-50 years ago and is still used by ear, nose, and throat specialists, but only to treat disease or speed healing of the nasal tissue."

*** BOOK REVIEW- The Avery Complete Guide to Medicines
by Ian Morton, Judith Hall ***

More and more people are taking charge of their own health, and they want to make informed decisions. But with the vast array of choices, both traditional and complementary, people also need to know more about what they are taking-and why-before doing so. Here, for the first time, is a single volume that provides consumers with all the necessary information concerning prescription, over-the-counter, herbal, vitamin, mineral, and other synthetic or natural remedies.

With more than 10,000 entries, The Avery Complete Guide to Medicines is equally helpful in the drugstore and in the health store. It offers complete  information about what medicines are, what they are used for, how much to take, possible side effects, contraindications, and drug and food interactions for both generic and brand-name items.

Part One presents a comprehensive A-to-Z encyclopedia of the disorders, from
minor discomforts to more serious concerns. Parts Two through Four provide
alphabetical listings of pharmaceuticals, herbs, and vitamins and minerals. Each
section is thoroughly cross-referenced and includes detailed notes on how the
medicines work within the body, as well as precautions, absorption, and efficacy.

Almost everyone at some point must use medications, and many people today take daily supplements as a means of preventative care. This invaluable reference helps consumers and physicians ensure that medications and supplements do not
combine with negative reactions and explains precisely how to use them most
efficiently. The definitive resource that will make all other pill books obsolete.

The list price for this book $27.95.  To purchase this book from Amazon.com for $19.56 at a 30 % discount, go directly to:
