** WARD OFF The Long-Term DAMAGE of STRESS **
There are many approaches to preventing and managing stress reactions.
Once a stress reaction occurs, it can take hours, even days to recover.
Since the effects of stress are also cumulative, a daily routine of
reducing the physiologic response becomes necessary to ward off
long-term damage and ensuing physical problems like irritability, headaches,
hypertension, gastritis, arrhythmias, depression, fatigue, immune
deficiencies, etc. A new approach to reducing daily stress is whole body
pulsed electromagnetic field treatments.

lifestyle changes on high blood pressure has found that mildly elevated
blood pressure can be lowered without drugs, researchers say. The
beneficial changes in the study were 180 minutes of moderately intense
exercise per week, a reduced-fat diet featuring more fruits and
vegetables, weight loss of at least 15 pounds, reduced sodium intake and
limiting alcoholic beverages to one per day for women, two for men."

*** SHORT HEALTH/SAFETY TIPS FOR THE WEEK ***
EMOTIONAL EATING - EMOTIONAL EATERS USE FOOD TO MANAGE FEELINGS
"We use food to self-soothe. People who have struggled with it, and the
professionals who treat it, call it by many different names; compulsive
overeating, emotional eating, and food addiction. No matter what it's
called, people USE food because food works!"

ADD - "Does the homework battle so typical with your hyperactive or
A.D.D. child have you at the end of your rope? Relax. We have some
tried-and-try ADHD information that should get your A.D.D. child on the right homework
path. The hyperactive or A.D.D. child especially needs consistency, a
work place free of distractions, solid encouragement and praise - along with
established consequences if the positive homework tips fail."

Hypo-Thyroidism
"While not generally considered one of the "Hormones Of Youth", thyroid
deficiency can increase your risk of age related disorders. Sub-optimal
thyroid means sub-optimal metabolism, which translates into weight gain
and its associated ills of heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes
and even cancer."

*** BOOK REVIEW: The Infertility Diet: Get Pregnant and Prevent
Miscarriage by Fern Reiss ***
-------------------------------------------------
This unique natural healing "recipe" book describes the way food affects
a couple's ability to get pregnant and stay pregnant. Reiss, who studied
cooking and nutrition at the Culinary Institute of America and the Kushi
Institute for Macrobiotic Studies, combines her educational background
with medical research to conclude that a balanced diet of whole foods
rich in vegetables, fruits, and grains may improve one's fertility. Claiming
personal success, she discusses general good eating habits and the
physiological basics of timing.
Reiss has organized her book by fertility problem and its nutritional
remedy (for example, eating yams may correct a short luteal phase
defect).
Food groups rather than vitamin dosages are emphasized (and vitamin pill
supplements discouraged), which leads to vague recommendations of the
amount of food to be consumed. Half of the book consists of recipes that
seem simple to follow but, unfortunately, exclude nutrition facts.
Although there are many holistic books dealing with infertility, this
seems to be the only one that discusses food and fertility exclusively.
For larger collections.ALisa A. Errico-Cox, Nassau Community Coll. Lib.,
Garden City, NY
American Society for Reproductive Medicine, Winter 2002
This unique approach should have been addressed long ago! A nice adjunct
to fertility treatment and prevention of miscarriages.
