Electrolytes are important because they are what your cells, especially nerve, heart, muscle, use to maintain voltages across their cell membranes and to carry electrical impulses, nerve impulses, and muscle contractions, across themselves and to other cells. Your kidneys work to keep the electrolyte concentrations in your blood constant despite changes in your body. For example, when you exercise, heavily, you lose electrolytes in your sweat, particularly sodium and potassium. These electrolytes must be replaced to keep the electrolyte concentrations of your body fluids constant. Another example where electrolyte drinks are important is when infants/children have chronic vomiting or diarrhea, [More]
Oftentimes, the simplest foods are best for your health, and this is certainly the case for nuts, in which Mother Nature has crafted a nearly perfect package of protein, healthy fats, fiber, plant sterols, antioxidants, and many vitamins and minerals. Among nuts, the case may be made that walnuts are king, as research shows they may boost your health in a number of ways at very easy-to-achieve “doses.” Eating just one ounce of walnuts a day (that’s about seven shelled walnuts) may be all it takes to take advantage of their beneficial properties. 7 Top Reasons to Eat Walnuts Walnuts [More]
Spices are a rich source of polyphenols, which means we should all be eating more of them. Polyphenols are powerful anti-oxidants that neutralize the free radicals formed by constant sun exposure and anti-microbial agents that are plants’ primary defense mechanism against microbiological attack. By ingesting foods that contain high levels of polyphenols, humans boost their immune systems, reduce cellular inflammation, and maintain an optimal balance between the good and bad microbes that live in our digestive tracts. Adding more spices to your diet is one way to increase the number of polyphenols entering your body on a regular basis, although, [More]
While the year 2014 will go down in history for having the highest level of global persecution of Christians in the modern era, current conditions suggest the worst is yet to come.

“Just another phoney condition created to get more individuals on some mind altering drugs and in the future to justify the round up of those who might disagree with the governments setting up of a police state surveillance society. The real mental cases now appear to be in the psychiatric profession.” Admin Modern psychiatry has become a hotbed of corruption, particularly the kind that seeks to demonize and declare mentally ill anyone who deviates from what is regarded as the norm. This is abundantly evident in the latest installment of the industry’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or [More]

One of the ways that VOM sometimes encourages American Christians to support our brothers and sisters facing persecution is by asking our government leaders to speak out and act on their behalf. These efforts go back even to VOM’s founder, Richard Wurmbrand, who testified before a Senate committee and even took off his shirt in the hearing to show the deep torture scars on his body. But what is the best way to advocate for persecuted Christians to US officials? And does it make a difference? Do they listen? We’ve got answers to those questions and others this week on [More]
“It’s hard to believe that a body named the “Food Safety Authority” would make such an insane ruling since the dangers of GMO crops are well documented. They are clearly not interested in food safety but in furthering corporate interests at the expense of everyones health.”  Admin Nations and regions which want to stay free of genetically-modified crops will be banned from doing so under a devastating ruling by EU scientists. The decision, the first from the new European Food Safety Authority, means governments will be unable to stop the controversial plants being grown on their soil – effectively opening [More]

“Please remember to pray for him. With the new Republican majorities in both Houses now would be an excellent time to contact your senators and representative about working on securing Pastor Abedini’s release.

Hope is birthed out of some of the most surprising of places. If you have been a Christian for even a small amount of time, you have heard the biblical Christmas story many times. We sing peaceful songs like Silent Night and Away in a Manger. You can feel the magic of Christmas when the lights are hung on the tree and the smell of cider is in the air.

“Great article on what’s happening in that war torn area and how the Gospel is spreading there.”  Admin Atrocities by the Islamic State (ISIS) are softening the hearts of Muslims to Christianity, and evangelistic techniques and technologies are proving effective, but locally-based missionaries say the main reason for the spike in conversions in the Middle East is simply that former Muslims are finding God is real.

“Good article on preparing for the challenging times ahead.”  Admin Jewish holiday holds ‘blueprint’ for today’s Christians, rabbi says The story of Hanukkah is a story of defiance. Defiance by a people refusing to conform under immense pressure from a popular culture that had become hostile to the God of the Bible.
