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

China turns to herbal remedies to fight SARS
“The chunks of brown bark, yellowish slivers of roots and dried light-green flower buds look and smell more like garden mulch than medicine. But millions of Chinese believe this traditional herbal remedy

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

Calcium retention unaffected by high-protein diet
“A high-protein diet containing mostly meat does not have adverse effects on women's ability to retain calcium, according to a study . About 200 million people worldwide are believed to be affected by the bone thinning known as osteoporosis. The US Agricultural Research Service (ARS), the chief scientific research agency of the US Department of Agriculture, explains how in recent years, scientists have theorised that high-protein diets leach calcium from bones, leading to bone loss, based on findings from tests involving purified proteins. But now they have discovered that unlike purified proteins, meat contains substantial amounts of potassium and phosphorus, which reduce urinary calcium loss.” (Click here for complete news story) http://www.nutraingredients.com/news/news.asp?id=6914


Herbal medicine can be good for tigers too.
“As a child growing up in China, Cao Dan's mother and grandmother used traditional Chinese medicine to treat her illnesses: cucumber slices on her sore throat, herbal tea for upset stomachs, tiger balm for headaches. But she didn't know that some traditional medicines were driving certain species to the brink of extinction, like ginseng, rhinos, tigers, and Asian bears. "I never heard of endangered species used in traditional medicine," she says. "There was no environmental education in China then.” (Click here for complete news story) http://www.panda.org/news_facts/newsroom/features/news.cfm?uNewsID=7008

A DGReview of :"A comparison of ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of temporomandibular joint involvement in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis" Rheumatology “Ultrasound imaging is an important diagnostic tool for evaluating temporomandibular joint (TMJ) involvement in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis.

*** SHORT HEALTH/SAFETY TIPS FOR THE WEEK ***

AROMATHERAPY FOR DOGS – “The use of nature¹s most concentrated botanical
substances- essential oils, is an excellent way to calm dogs who are fearful, agitated and hyperactive. The very nature of these substances is such that they work quickly and do not leave the animal in a drugged or listless state, as common tranquilizers such as Valium do. Unlike herbal calming tablets, which take time to digest, aromatherapy essential oils are inhaled and quickly begin their work.” (To read the complete article entitled: Using Aromatherapy to Calm Your Frazzled Fido, By: Kristen Leigh Bell, Certified Master Aromatherapist go to)
http://www.naturalhealthweb.com/articles/bell3.html


WATER – “In 1974, Congress wanted to ensure safe drinking water for all Americans. So, they developed the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). This Act directs the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to establish MINIMUM National Drinking Water Standards, limiting the amount of various contaminants that threaten public health. In 1986 and 1996, Congress passed a set of amendments that expanded this protection provided by the Safe Drinking Water Act. These amendments set achievable levels of drinking water quality to protect your health.” (To read the complete article entitled: WARNING! ***The Water You’re Drinking Could Be Killing You*** By: Tom DeBartolo, go to) http://www.naturalhealthweb.com/articles/debartolo1.html


HYPOGLYCEMIA – “Even small amounts of sugar can spell trouble for people who are allergic, diabetic, hypoglycemic, anxious, depressed , yeast or infection prone, or nutritionally deficient. Excess sugar can create a health danger to anyone. Many are hooked on sugar & unknowingly, profoundly influenced by it.” (To read the complete article entitled: HYPOGLYCEMIA, SUGAR IS NOT SO SWEET! by Priscilla Slagle MD, go to) http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/SLAGLE1.html
