*** TOP NATURAL HEALTH NEWS STORY OF THE WEEK ***

"Selenium for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an example. Studies have found that   individuals with rheumatoid arthritis tend to have lower-than-average levels of selenium in the body.1 Furthermore, one can make a good theoretical argument that selenium supplements even in absence of a deficiency might also be helpful in RA. The mineral plays an important role in modulating inflammatory and immune responses, as well as helping the body fight dangerous free radicals. Any of these effects could easily lead to benefit in RA, which is an autoimmune, inflammatory disease."

*** OTHER HEALTH NEWS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.***

DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
"A review paper published this week in the Journal of the New Zealand Dietetic Association questions the widespread use of herbal dietary supplements.  A recent survey found that almost one in every three people had consumed dietary supplements (other than vitamins and minerals) over the previous year."There is a widespread assumption that herbal remedies are natural, so they must be safe. This argument has been used to justify the fact that there is a lack of clinical data on the safety and effectiveness of many supplements," says author of the review  paper, Amanda Wynne.  People need to be aware that there may be risks  associated with taking herbal preparations, particularly for those with underlying  medical conditions or those who are taking prescription drugs."

Snacking can reduce cholesterol
"A new study finds that eating frequently is linked to lower blood cholesterol   concentrations.  When people reflect upon a healthy diet, they are normally   thinking about what more than how often they have a meal. And eating patterns    vary a lot. Some people eat no breakfast, they may skip lunch and then eat    everything they can lay their hands on for supper. Others 'graze' through the day,   while some people stick to three meals a day and no snacking between times. If   these people eat the same amount, does it really matter when they eat it? Yes, it   does, according to a new report."

Study finds three genes affecting heart attack risk
"Scientists say they have found evidence linking three genes to the likelihood of heart disease in what could be a step toward a better screening procedure for   families at risk. Using a new technique called high throughput microarray   genotyping to sift through some 50,000 genes, the researchers found that three   produce thrombospondin. The protein governs blood's ability to clot, a factor in   heart disease.  The study in last week's issue of the journal Circulation found that  families with a variant of a gene called thrombospondin-4 were 89 percent more  likely to have a premature heart attack compared with those who had a normal
gene of the same type."

*** SHORT HEALTH/SAFETY TIPS FOR THE WEEK ***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
HYPNOSIS - "Hypnosis is now used for many different therapeutic outcomes, such as:   enhancement of self confidence, assertiveness, creativity, peak  performance, and the reduction of anxiety, trauma&ptsd symptoms, test anxiety, social anxiety, as well as habit or addiction elimination, such as smoking."
(To read the complete article entitled:  Hypnosis  by Susan Quinn, MA, MFT, go to)

EATING DISORDERS- "Often a person with an eating disorder covers her pain  so well that even when she tells the truth about her suffering, people don't believe   her. They think she is exaggerating, overreacting, in a mood that will pass. She   can look so good or so happy that people who love her and think they know her well, cannot get past what they wish to see and hear. They can also be too afraid to believe that her descriptions of personal pain might actually be true. So, if that eating disorder person is you, you are in a situation where there may be many well-meaning people in your life, but none who take your anguish seriously. Perhaps they feel helpless because they don't know how to help. They wish and try to believe that whatever is bothering you would just go away. Nobody likes to feel helpless in a painful and bewildering situation."

ECZEMA - "US and international pediatricians attended the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) national Conference and discussed with Proteque International their successful use of non-steroid,  Proteque(R) SPS to manage eczema and dermatitis patients.  More than 5,500 pediatricians and other health care professionals attended this premier pediatric educational event in San Francisco."
