By Thomasina Copenhaver C-difficile is currently the most common hospital acquired infection—affecting half a million Americans every year. While one out of five patients fail to respond after the initial round of antibiotics, repeated doses of antibiotics remain the standard of care in most hospitals. But new research, that is finally catching up with antiquity (“yellow soup” discovered by Chinese Dr. GE Hong more than 1700 years ago), may hold the cure. Yellow soup was a broth involving dried or fermented feces from a healthy person. Taken by mouth, the healthy bacteria in the stool would then inhabit the gut

By Joy Jensen, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) If your zinc levels are lower than normal, new reports show you’re at risk for high blood pressure. A recent study published in the American Journal of Physiology – Renal Physiology found that too little zinc could cause your kidneys to reabsorb salt, causing high blood pressure. And, here’s an important point: low levels of zinc are common across many chronic diseases. And, it’s already been known to make high blood pressure reading worse. However, it wasn’t until this study that we knew that zinc deficiency on its own can have a a …read

By Jeremiah Johnson Music is a great tool to be able to work out, to “move steel,” “pump iron,” or push yourself. Music has a physiological effect that you need to know about. When you listen to music that is pleasing to your ears, it stimulates the production of Dopamine, the “feel good/good mood” chemical. Outside of the nervous system, it inhibits the release of norepinephrine and acts as a vasodilator. Norepinephrine prepares the brain and body to perform a task and to act, especially during times of stress or danger…tied to the “fight-or-flight” response. Now, vasodilatory action of Dopamine

By Hesh Goldstein For the answer to this question we have to go back in time. We are generally raised in a family that was raised in a family that lacked sufficient information to eat properly. Upon growing up, in my formative years in the 40s and 50s, not knowing squat about the proper way to eat, the diet I was faced with was bacon and eggs or Cheerio’s for breakfast and two squares a day of meat and potatoes, except for Fridays, which we usually ate dairy products.

This is a big deal, especially when you realize that – based on U.S. statistics alone – cancer claims around 1,600 lives (every day!) and every 40 seconds, another American will have …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) For many, cadmium, arsenic and lead might bring to mind the contents of test tubes brandished by mad scientists and comic-book villains – not the contents of a child’s sippy cup. However, researchers at Consumer Reports say they recently detected potentially harmful quantities of these toxic heavy metals in a variety of popular fruit juices. Appallingly, almost half of the juices tested contained enough of the heavy metals to potentially harm children – even when given in amounts as low as 4 ounces a day!

By everybodysfit How many people were raised starting the morning with a glass of orange juice with breakfast?? Apple, grape, orange, pineapple, cranberry…. there’s a type of juice to please everyone’s taste buds. The fallacy is that many believe drinking fruit juice equates to eating fruit. Therefore, fruit juice is perceived as healthy. The word “fruit” is associated with healthy. However, fruit juice contains as more if not more sugar than other beverages. Although fruit juice contains nutrients and antioxidants, these positive traits don’t negate the quantity of sugar. We are victims to misleading labels on these drinks. Labels that
