*** TOP NATURAL HEALTH NEWS STORY OF THE WEEK ***
Herbal Skin Care
"People seeking relief from chronic skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis are increasingly turning to "alternative" herbal remedies. Some of these plant-based products, like aloe vera and witch hazel, have long been used to sooth skin inflammation, but few have undergone the scrutiny of clinical testing on humans. A report in the Archives of Dermatology discusses the science behind several herbal remedies."

Organic Produce No More Nutritious
Otago Researchers Find No Conclusive Evidence That Organic Produce More Nutritious
"Claims that organically produced food has superior nutritional benefits do not appear to be supported by the available evidence, according to a recent University of Otago study which is the first critical review of research comparing organic and conventional foods to be published by a leading international science journal."

Get Fast Relief from Seasonal Allergies
Make this your first allergy-free spring with our easy three-part plan.
"If you're one of the 26 million people nationwide with seasonal allergies, no            doubt you're suffering right now with sneezing, congestion, itchy eyes, and         other frustrating symptoms that add up to pure hell.  Simply put, you're suffering because your body is extra-sensitive. "Certain individuals' immune systems overreact to external stimuli like pollen, grass, and ragweed," says Ben Kligler, M.D., associate medical director of Beth Israel Hospital's Continuum Center for Health and Healing in New York City. "When your immune system encounters an offensive particle, or allergen, it mounts a defensive response and releases a cascade of inflammation to fight it off." Inflammation triggers most allergy symptoms.  But you'll find relief right away with our three-step plan. Start with steps 1 (follows "Clear Your Congestion Fast") and 2. If you're still suffering after two to four weeks, move on to step 3.  
            Clear Your Congestion Fast
            1. Mix 1 cup filtered lukewarm water with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pour into a
            neti pot, pictured above.
            2. Lean over a sink. Tilt your head to the left. Press the neti pot spout to
            your right nostril and tip the pot. Water should trickle out your left nostril.
            3. Lower your head over the sink. Exhale forcefully through your nose.
            Repeat on the opposite side.

Herb Brief: Gotu Kola
"This Ayurvedic herb may reduce your anxiety without the side effects of drugs.
Gotu kola (Centella asiatica) is used to ease anxiety as well as to heal varicose veins and improve memory.  This creeping plant grows in China, India, and Madagascar. Practitioners of Ayurveda (India's holistic medical system) have relied on the herb for centuries. Gotu kola is often confused with the caffeine-containing kola nut, but gotu kola is unrelated and contains no caffeine.

How It Works
People with stress-related disorders like anxiety and panic attacks are
believed to have an overactive startle response. Scientists theorize that
compounds in gotu kola known as triterpene acids bind to receptors in your
central nervous system and reduce your startle response.

Gotu kola strengthens the collagen lining of your vein walls, enhances
circulation, and reduces inflammation to treat varicose veins. Practitioners
believe gotu kola improves memory by boosting circulation to the brain."

*** SHORT HEALTH/SAFETY TIPS FOR THE WEEK ***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANXIETY- "Fear is a normal feeling that alerts us to real dangers, such as a fire raging in our home or a car rushing toward us. It propels us out of the house or back on the curb! We do not want to eliminate fear. It is essential for our survival.
Anxiety, on the other hand, is a learned response, which is maladaptive. It interferes with our highest functioning and delicious enjoyment of life. We do
want to eliminate it because it ruins our life. And we can. Since anxiety is   learned, we can unlearn it. It may require a little effort on our part, but we can
definitely move beyond our conditioned responses to a higher level of functioning."
(To read the complete article entitled: Eliminate Anxiety and Feel Safe                         Without Drugs by Dr. Doris Jeanette, licensed psychologist, go to)
http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/Jeanette1.html

SELF-DEFENSE- "Whether an assailant knocks a female to the ground, grabs her from behind, tries to push or pull her to another location or uses any other tactic, she can use the following techniques to get away. Not every technique will work in every situation. She must decide which move will be most effective."
(To read the complete article entitled: How To Stay Safe - Self Defense Techniques for You and Your Daughter by Dede Perkins, go to)
http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/perkins4.html

MINERALS-  "Even though studies show that most of us have sufficient proteins,
carbohydrates and fats in our diets, we are lacking in vital nutrients.   These nutrients are obtained from plentiful portions of fresh fruit and vegetables. Or are they?  Minerals, are the basic building blocks of life. In fact, our bodies need a
whole range of nutrients, in the balanced form that Nature provides, or should            provide, for healthful well-being.  We need over 90 minerals and micro minerals or trace elements, vitamins and amino acids as well as enzymes and the essential fatty acids."  (To read the complete article entitled:  Tired of always feeling Tired?  by Lisa van den Berg, go to)
