“An apple a day really does keep the doctor away, thanks to strong
antioxidants that fight cell damage, U.S. researchers reported on Tuesday.
Rat brain cells exposed to the antioxidant -- in this case quercetin --
resisted damage much better than those not treated, the team at Cornell
University in New York found. “

“The smallest premature babies, already at high risk of brain damage, are
likely to develop even more mental disorders if they get any infection in
the first weeks of life, researchers said on Tuesday.
The babies, a majority of which contract an infection, face increased
chances of brain injury and ailments such as cerebral palsy, according to
a study by the U.S. government's National Institute of Child Health and
Human Development.”

“A Johns Hopkins study has found new evidence that the brains of some
people with autism show clear signs of inflammation, suggesting that the
disease may be associated with activation of the brain’s immune system.
“These findings reinforce the theory that immune response in the brain is
involved in autism, although it is not yet clear whether the inflammation
is a consequence of disease or a cause of it, or both,” said Carlos
Pardo-Villamizar, M.D., assistant professor of neurology and pathology at
Johns Hopkins and senior author of a report on the study published early
on-line in the journal Annals of Neurology on Nov. 15.”

*** HEALTH/SAFETY TIPS & ARTICLES FOR THE WEEK ***
NON-TOXIC CLEANING PRODUCTS- “Clean Your House Green for your Children’s
Sake By David Zielski Vice President Seaside Naturals
www.seasidenaturals.com My thirteen-year-old daughter recently called me
up to say she had cleaned the whole kitchen and bathroom herself. So many
emotions ran through me at that moment. First, I was shocked by the fact
that no one asked her to do so. I was also happy that she had done this
but anxious at the same time because this was a Thursday afternoon and
knowing that during the next 24 hours would come my payback, a ride home
from a party or a couple of her friends sleeping over for the weekend. But
the one thing I was not feeling was worried that my little girl was
exposed to toxic chemicals that most of us use in our homes.
Two years ago we made the switch to all natural non-toxic cleaning
products. Up until a few years ago, most household and commercially
purchased cleaning products were "petro-chemically" derived or
"synthetic". These types of products are literally made from crude
petroleum oil. As our use of these cleaners in our homes, schools, and
workplaces has grown over the last 60 years, the incidence of diseases
like cancer and asthma has grown dramatically as well, and many experts
see a clear connection between the two. It’s a picture vividly painted by
the numbers: From 1973 to 1998, the overall incidence of cancer increased
by almost 25%.” (To read the complete article entitled: Clean Your House

WEIGHT LOSS - Diet. It's a four-letter word. They never seem to work fast
enough and they can be downright discouraging. But now you can get your
body working for you—and make it take the weight off more efficiently.
Immunotec's Prycena is a natural weight loss accelerant that will help you
reach your weight loss goals. Trigger Your Fat Burning? Here's how it
works: Prycena helps curb your appetite and stimulates your body's natural
ability to burn fat and calories. It does this by combining a high
concentration of calcium with two unique micro-peptides. Our bodies are
designed to store fat—it's a matter of survival. So the key to successful
weight loss is to trigger the burning rather than the storage of fat
cells. Some dieters consider dairy products to be fattening, but research
suggests the opposite is true. Milk calcium is a fat burner (PDF).
Prycena's high concentration of dairy calcium coupled with a unique
hydrolyzed peptide assists in burning the fat too.

ANGER – “Anger: A label we attach to a series of symptoms that seem to be
coming from either an internal mechanism (created in the past) or as a
reaction to a perceived violation (seems to be occurring in the present
moment) or a projection of fear(an imagined or anticipated violation
expected to occur in the near future). It shows up in our lives as precise
sensory feedback that we are not in control. It can stimulate an impulse
to protect ourselves from a perceived threat, by engaging behaviors that
will maximise our survival or accelerate our demise. The more a person
denies the initial impulses the more they seem to intensify and mutate
into behaviors that mask. The masking of what is being resisted ( a false
viewpoint imagined to be fixed) creates uncontrollable impulses to fixate
ones attention on a compulsion or a drive towards revenge.”

*** BOOK REVIEWNatural Relief for Anxiety: Complementary Strategies for
Easing Fear, Panic & Worry -by Edmund J., Ph.D. Bourne, Arlen Brownstein,
Lorna GaranoEditorial Reviews ***
--------------
Twenty-five million Americans suffer from diagnosable anxiety disorders,
and millions more struggle with occasional feelings of fear, panic, and
worry. Pharmaceutical companies spend billions each year developing drugs
to counteract these feelings, but the truth is that there is no "magic
pill" that can make anxiety go away. Anxiety treatments that rely on
medication have a high incidence of relapse when the medication stops. And
the side effects of these drugs can be more debilitating than the
condition they were designed to treat. An alternative and more lasting way
to control anxiety is to make gentle, natural changes to your lifestyle
that promote wellness in mind and body.
Product Description:
Natural anxiety relief without costly prescription drugs
Written by the best-selling author of The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook and
a naturopathic physician, this book offers you a complete strategy for
overcoming anxiety without drugs. Begin by taking a look at the choices
you make every day about your lifestyle and general well-being. Calm your
anxious mind with healthy self-talk. Learn the importance of exercise and
a healthy, natural diet in controlling anxiety. Discover techniques that
promote deep physical relaxation. Find out which nutritional supplements
and natural therapies can help you on your way to renewed peace of mind.
Explore ways you can simplify your life to reduce stress. The book offers
a broad range of self-care resources as well as information about how and
when to seek outside help.
Complementary treatment approaches includes relaxation, exercise, and diet
improvement, herbs and nutritional supplements, massage and bodywork,
chiropractic care, mindfulness meditation, yoga, and t’ai chi, homeopathic
and naturopathic medicine, and overcoming aggravating conditions like body
toxicity, seasonal affective disorder, adrenal exhaustion, and PMS.
