Controlling actions of FSH may help treat osteoporosis in menopausal women
Diminished bone density is common among menopausal women and raises their risk of osteoporosis, bone fractures and subsequent complications. Research has traditionally focused on therapies that seek to maintain the level of estrogen in the body. This hormone seems to sustain bone health, but it drops to an extremely low level during and after menopause.

Four Flu Remedies of Homeopathy

0

The flu can be a trying time for someone new to homeopathy. It is worth the extra effort to learn the top several remedies. Once committed to memory, they will serve you well. There are several that are considered the most important. Below are only four, but worthy of our study.

Eupatorium works when the weather is warm and mild. The common botanical name for this remedy is boneset which gives an indication of its area of action. The symptom that is most telling is the strong pain that is suffered in the bones. The sufferer can find no comfortable position, as there is much agony as though the bed is too hard. Eupatorium is sometimes confused with Bryonia. The differential is that Bryonia remains still and quiet while Eupatorium thrashes in pain.

Bryonia is a common remedy for the flu. Look for indications such as desire for long , cold drinks that are interesting only on occasion. The person is weak, lethargic, sleepy and heavy. There is much perspiration and the person does not get sick suddenly. Instead, he is not well for days in advance of an all out illness. This person wants to be left alone, particularly because his head and eyes hurt as well as his extremities. He favors being very still as any movement is painful to the eyes, or head.

Nux vomica is a favorite because it is often an easy remedy to spot. The person is irritable and has in general, or in the recent past, overindulged in either too little sleep and/or foods and drink that are artificial. He wants to be left alone because everything anyone does is an irritant to this sufferer. The need for this remedy is often after an exposure to a cold wind. There is intense cold with shivers running up the back. Every movement of the covers is resented for the cold it sends to the back. There may be gastro intestinal issues that accompany the chills, including nausea, constipation, diarrhea or both. Sounds, light and other external influences are despised and resented in a very verbal way.

A flu responding to the remedy, Pulsatilla, often comes soon after feet have gotten wet. This sets up shivers down the back. The person can crave cool air blowing on them that can bring them to resent a warm, stuffy room. The mouth is dry and thirst is often lacking. The person needing this remedy is usually a female and can be demanding of attention.

Know your homeopathic flu remedies and they will be your friends for life. They may indeed be the ticket to your own health or that of your loved ones.

Dementia, Colloidal Gold The Memory Loss Tonic

0

Dementia is spreading like a disease. If you find yourself laughing about your memory loss and excusing it with your age. . . maybe the solution is truly golden. . .
Colloidal = a solid (in this case gold) of minute particles, that remain in suspension in a surrounding liquid (in this case de-ionized water).
Gold has always been the prize of desire, but now the elixir of choice? We know that this precious metal has been a primary building block of the body. Very little research is underway to find how such a crucial metal in our body is being lost and not constantly replenished.
Europeans have long used colloidal gold as a supplement in their diet to replenish this key element of the body. In using colloidal gold as a supplement, arthritis sufferers noticed reduced swelling and pain. In some cases pain was eliminated entirely. Extensive European studies and use showed that stress levels were controlled, and that depression and anxiety faded away while patients diets were supplemented with colloidal gold.
The overseas reports conclude that colloidal gold has a most positive effect on the nerve structure and brain. Gold being one of the best conductors of electricity, it isn’t at all surprising that the supplementing of gold to a body that is gold depleted, would improve the overall function of the nervous system including improved memory and quicker thought processes.
Memory loss comes with age and is joked about by the “50 and over” crowd. However memory loss is temporary and can be improved. Mental exercises, diet and supplements have shown that memory loss can be avoided or reversed and in most cases improved.
Dementia can be caused by several factors such as stroke, circulation, Alzheimer’s and more but the common thread is poor conductivity in the brain. Dementia and memory loss are treatable. Most sufferers don’t or cannot help themselves. If dementia is left untreated, memory loss worsens. As dementia escalates in an individual, their plight becomes the families’ everyday responsibility to care for an adult as if they were a very small child. Dementia affects the caretaker in ways greater than the patient.
Gold has long been known to promote healthier skin, reduce the healing time of burns and clear up skin ulcers. For many years the Europeans have used colloidal gold to combat alcohol addiction. Again memory loss due to alcohol abuse affects the brain and a gold supplement would be the obvious choice.
Colloidal trace minerals derived from plant material are the easiest absorbed of all minerals. Single colloidal minerals such as silver, gold, and platinum can be electrically reduced to a size that is readily assimilated into the blood stream.
This all natural ingredient of our body is not replenished by the foods we eat. Our alternative is to seek out colloidal gold and other trace minerals to keep the required levels for a healthy body.

Cold Sores and Alzheimers: Working Together?

0

Cold sores may be high up on your list of embarrassing problems. These unsightly bumps affect the majority of the population and can be passed on by an affectionate kiss from a favorite aunt. The virus that causes cold sores, herpes simplex 1, then stays in the nerve cell ganglion and emerges in times of stress which can then make life more stressful! But scientists are currently exploring a finding that links the virus that causes cold sores to Alzheimer’s disease and the findings are proving dramatic.
Genes and the Herpes Simplex 1 Virus
The genetic component of how the immune system works is widely regarded as important. But a study in the online journal Neurobiology of Aging indicates that whether you have a single gene in evidence can play a large role in whether you develop cold sores and Alzheimer’s disease.
The details are still being worked out, but as herpes simplex installs itself in nerve cells, or neurons, it appears to pave the way for Alzheimer’s disease. Scientists have found that the cold sore virus tends to be more easily activated in individuals carrying a copy of the ApoE-4 gene. Individuals may carry ApoE-4, ApoE-2, ApoE-1 or no ApoE gene at all. Right now, it is the ApoE-4 gene that is raising red flags for researchers looking for a cause and cure for alzheimers.
How Does it Work?
With these recent findings, scientists are unable to form clear connections in how cold sores affect Alzheimer’s Disease development. With the three factors of genes, virus, and disease are other factors such as nutrition and environment. It has been established that genes are highly influenced by external factors and it is these external areas of control which may prove vital for those carrying the ApoE-4 gene. While studies in mice have given tantalizing evidence of a solid connection, it will be awhile before drugs are developed to effectively manage the connection.
Some Possible Areas of Development
The cold sore virus and Alzheimer’s connection may have a few stepping stones missing in between, but researchers are currently hunting down a few possible components that may prove fruitful. The substance Amyloid-beta is linked to the buildup of plaque in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients, and there is evidence that the ApoE-4 gene may not be as efficient in clearing tissues as other forms. Another possible route to discovery is the molecule Nectin-1, which plays an important role in forming connective tissues in the brain. Nectin-1 is also utilized by the cold sore virus in infecting individual cells. With expansion of our present knowledge, the exact connection Alzheimer’s and cold sores may become clear in time.

Who Is The Brain Behind Vemma, And What Sets Him Apart From Other Business Owners?

0

In the year 2004, BK Boreyko founded Vemma. Since the birth of Vemma, it has become the number one name among companies who produce liquid base supplement. Personally from my own experience, I can testify that their products are the best. I am a writer with a responsibility to do critics and reviews for companies everday. I never voiced out my opinions on MLM companies. However in Vemma, there is no doubt that this is amazing as I have tested it for myself. B. K. Boreyeko is not a novice in creating leading companies, and Vemma too is not his first endeavor. ‘New Vision’ a company of Health and wellness, initiated by B. K. in 1995 within 10 years time is worth $1 Billion. This business enterprise even proved BK’s worth as a businessman who truly has a great knowledge in this field. Not only that, but he also had a wider outlook for the emerging and upcoming trend popular to many people in the whole world. Because of this ‘New Vision’ he had and a sick cost of capital, Vemma has emerged. It is of utmost importance to note that customer base addressed by Vemma as a potential distributor picking a Health and Wellness company, it addresses and appeals to a larger demography when compared to to competitors like Xango and Mona Vie. Bk Boreyko made it certain to offer the 3 major markets that exist in any field. Vemma, Verve and Next are his three major product lines which do extremely good business every year and for 5 years, have successfully competed against other major companies. Vemma boasts a liquid supplement with some of the highest amounts of mangosteen (possibly the most coveted super fruit) on the market today. People are so enthralled with this fruit because it is said to neutralize free radicals in the body. Free radicals are the things that attack and destroy cellular integrity. Vemma contains higher levels of pure mangosteen than its most relevant competitor in the industry, Xango. Verve, The second product is designed to appeal to ever growing youth market, it is an alternative energy drink having 10 folds more nutritional value, minus inferior ingredients that competitor brands like Monster and Red Bull have. Verve is mass recognized for doing $20 million dollars in such a cornered market. Last but not the least, Vemma’s ‘Next’ line of product is geared to care for children aged between 2-12 years. It offers a blend of about an ounce of Vemmas formula with essentials like DHA which are significant for healthy and early development of neural and visual functions in children. The entrepreneurial mastery of BK is evidenced by the fact that he offered something to be enjoyed and benefited by everyone. Vemma and other reps should learn from his practice and do individual need analysis of wide variety of customers while building Vemma business.
