More and more people are being affected by cancer, either by getting cancer themselves or if a relative or friend gets it. Cancer puts fear in most people and very often it seems like there is no way out. Not only are conventional cancer treatments ineffective, but also dangerous and expensive. But there are cancer cures that are natural and non-toxic, which don`t destroy your body, but help to rebuild it. Alternative medicine and the treatment of cancer The question that a lot of ask themselves, is if there are effective and safe alternative cancer treatments, then why are not doctors using them? A huge amount of money is spent each year on cancer research and if there are safe and effective cancer...

It has long been somewhat of a mystery as to why the French could eat a high fat, high calorie diet and have a lower incidence of heart disease and live long healthy lives. It was known that wine had something to do with it but over the last couple of years, compliments of Dr Sinclair of the Harvard Medical Center and Rafael De Cabo Phd., they may have isolated the properties that answer the mystery. The key is resveratrol in the fermented skins of the red wine grape, especially grapes that come from cooler climates. There have been published papers on the fact that people (or animals for that matter) who have calorie restricted diets live longer. Resveratrol does many things for the body including...

Many people are not informed that there is a new vaccine that prevents ear infections, pneumonia and meningitis. This is the Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. Kristen Steward from Plainsboro, N.J., is one of the few parents knew about the vaccine and took her children for a snot. She was very impressed about the fact that her children wore not going to suffer of ear infections any more, because she always had to miss from work to take care of them, and they were always suffering when getting such an infection. There exist 90 different types of Pneumococci and 7 of them are known to affect most frequent the children. The Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine is designed to fight the 7 types of pneumoccocus...

It seems Mom was right. Eating your vegetables actually have more far reaching effects than even Mom knew. Recently, researchers at UCLA found a chemical in broccoli and other members of the cabbage family that may help keep the body more alkaline, especially as we age. Our body pH seems to drop as we get older, which can spell inflammation, discomfort, illness and disease as we age. The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology reports the study that shows a plant chemical called sulforaphane has a switching action that turns on a group of antioxidant/anti-aging genes which can mediate dietary and metabolic acids, the precursors to disease. The process turns on the alkaline buffering capabilities...

Vitamin D sure is in the news a lot lately. In fact, a recent statistic showed that up to 80 percent of American adults are deficient in vitamin D! That's a startling fact, especially considering all of the health benefits vitamin D can have, from keeping your heart healthy to staving off dementia and cancer. Now, a new study has shown that there's an asthma-vitamin D connection - especially if you're a mom-to-be. Let's take a look at this recent discovery. An insufficiency of Vitamin D may be linked to the severity of asthma symptoms in children, according to a new study published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. According to the study, a higher intake of vitamin D by pregnant...

There was so much discussion after I posted John Kelly's article regarding sulfites, wines and headaches, I did some further research and wanted to pass the information along. Red Wine Headache (RWH) is a well documented phenomenon. But there is no definitive information regarding RWH because there is no funding available for research. There is no evidence that sulfites are the cause of wine headaches. In fact, research done with subjects known to have sulfite allergies confirm that headaches are not one of the symptoms they experience when drinking wine. White wines often contain more sulfites than reds, and dried fruit contain sulfites and no one who eats either complains of headaches. So what is...

Brief Statistics 1. Asthma costs 1-2% of the total health budgets in direct costs, with large indirect costs for time lost from work and reduced productivity.1 3. Survey data demonstrates that approximately 17% of homes are contaminated with mould. This is significant as there is strong evidence linking asthma exacerbations to contamination of the indoor environment with moulds.1 4. Since most people spend 90% of their time indoors, exposure to major allergens is significant.1 5. Up to 35% of the population demonstrate evidence of reactivity to allergens.1 6. 5-10% of the population show clinical features of one or more allergic disorders such as asthma, hay fever or eczema.1 7. The Health Survey...

Childhood eczema, an allergic skin condition, increases the likelihood of childhood asthma as well as the persistence of asthma in later life, reports a 37-year long study published in the August issue of the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. The Tasmanian Longitudinal Health Study (TAHS) is an ongoing study that began in 1968. 8583 seven-year-old school children were enrolled for this study. They were surveyed again in 1974, 1979-81, 1991-93, and most recently in 2003-05. About 81% of those still alive and traceable responded to the latest survey. 769 of the seven-year-olds in 1968 had childhood eczema. These children showed an increased incidence of asthma in preadolescence, adolescence...

Did you know that drinking 3 to 4 cups of good quality, mild tea can provide protection against a host of various ailments? The magical word here is antioxidants. Tea contains high levels of antioxidants called polyphenols or flavonoids. So, what are antioxidants? To put this simply, within the human body, millions of processes are occurring at all times. These processes require oxygen. Unfortunately, the oxygen that we breathe in can create harmful side...

Asthma is a lung disease caused by increased reaction of airways to stimuli and can be life-threatening. Asthma is a chronic disease, with symptoms that may come and go and is often related to allergies. Symptoms occur when the airways become inflamed, mucus production obstructs the airways and the muscles around the airways become constricted. The most dangerous symptoms may include: marked chest tightness, wheezing, persistent coughing, shortness of breath, difficulty speaking, etc. Asthma affects 25 million Americans, with minorities having the greatest risk of dying from, or being diagnosed with the disease. African Americans are particularly at risk and research shows they're four times more...

The author of this article has written it because their partner is celiac, and they have asthma. Ever woken up in the middle of the night and not been able to breathe? The thing with asthma is that while it is often hereditary, the onset in modern times often occurs earlier than for the preceding generation, again I have personal experience with this. I started experiencing hay-fever and asthma type symptoms about five years before my father did. I only made the celiac (wheat) / asthma connection a few years ago when after eating meat pies and pasties I found an increase in my mucous as well as an accompanying tightened chest. I have read several blog entries where people with more severe forms of...

To keep your immune system from over reacting, you will first need to figure out just what is causing it to go into overdrive. Here are five immune system stressors that may be contributing to the release of histamines in your body. Your diet: Adopting an anti-inflammatory diet is one of the first steps to take during allergy season. If you eat foods that are high inflammatory foods, your seasonal allergies can be worse especially if you're already sensitive to a particular food. For me that would be sugar, and that can be a big problem, because I love my sweets. There are two types of foods that can cause an inflammatory reaction that will exhaust your immune system. The first type are the foods...

Love it or hate it, the rich source of nutrients in leafy green vegetables have shown themselves to be remarkably beneficial in two very different studies for two very different, but equally devastating, conditions. At last find out the link between vegetables and cancer. The first, conducted by a team out of UCLA, identified a compound found in broccoli (and other cruciferous vegetables) that might help to stop respiratory inflammation, the kind that's linked to diseases like asthma, allergic rhinitis and COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Known to science as sulforaphane, the compound is naturally part of fresh broccoli and seems to stimulate the production of more than one antioxidant...

Allergies can cause a lot of trouble and in some cases, can even be fatal. Since people tend to live with allergies all their lives, it's important that they fully understand their condition. They can do this by raising their awareness about their allergies, being educated and working with the right allergy doctor. Here are some tips for hiring the best allergy doctor for you and your family: Go to a specialist An allergy doctor is called an allergist or an immunologist. He or she is especially trained in the field, spending several years in medical school studying the nature and cause of allergies and their corresponding treatments. This means that if you go see a physician, you will have to check...

Still in the air of joyous celebrating mood for our Food Safety Excellence Award, I like to share one of my post I wrote for my Nutritional Immunology health blog here. May you enjoy getting all these health tips and start taking actions to lead a healthy, wealthy and happy life. 1. Stable Emotion ~ "Don't worry, be happy!" Do you know that everytime when we are very angry or stressed, our body will secret a hormone call corticosteroid which will suppress our immune system? Long term anxiety and restlessness will cause our immunity to fall rapidly and unable to work optimally. As we've discussed how our immune system can protect us and keep us healthy, now I think getting angry or stressed is too...

The chemical compound in the "abortion pill" has been found to prevent the development of mammary tumors caused by the mutant gene responsible for the majority of breast and ovarian cancers, a group of scientists from UC Irvine reported. The key compound, known as mifepristone, prevented breast tumors by inhibiting the production of progesterone. progesterone is a hormone involved in the female reproductive cycle which is found in the tissues of the breast. The discovery may open up more, and far more palatable options for women who have a genetic predisposition to developing breast and ovarian cancers. Currently, the typical prevention method relies on the surgical removal of breasts or ovaries for...

In this second article on the topic of PTSD I go through more of the biochemistry behind the symptoms. In the next article I will look at available alternative and complementary remedies. To understand the differences between the origins, pathways and hormones involved in PTSD, and why their action can become chronic and debilitating, one must first review the alarm phase and resistance phase reactions. In a sudden 'fight or flight' situation nerve impulses go from the hypothalamus to the Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) to alert the brain, activate the mobilization of huge amounts of glucose and oxygen and the shutting down of non essential body functions such as digestion. Via the SNS the adrenal...

Today, teachers are finding it more and more difficult to keep biology students engaged during classroom lectures. Traditional teaching techniques simply don't cut it in today's tech-savvy society - educators need to provide their students with more in order to pique their interest and hold their attention. Teachers across Canada and around the world are calling for instructional strategies far different from the conceptualization and memorization techniques of the past. Science educators want hands-on, minds-on, authentic learning strategies. They want teaching aids like the VIRTmac magnetic classroom. Understanding Hands-On, Minds-On, Authentic Learning Interactive teaching tools are the new...

That the thoughts in your mind have an enormous effect on your body has become well accepted. There's even a tongue-twisting name for a new field of scientific investigation of the mind-body connection: psychoneuro-immunology or PNI. PNI studies the interaction between the mind, nervous system, immune system, and endocrine system and acknowledges the unity of our complex interacting parts. Early mind-body studies showed that people were more likely to become ill after suffering severe emotional trauma; recent studies have been able to actually measure the dip in immune defenses. In one study the immune cells of students dropped significantly during exam week, presumably because of the extra stress...

Another article looking at the importance of vitamin D in patients with asthma has just been published in Annals of Allergy, Asthma, and  Immunology. The authors, MS Sandhu and TB Casele, point out that evidence suggests that vitamin D deficiency is associated with lung airway over-responsiveness, worse asthma control, and possibly resistance of asthma patients being able to respond to steroid treatment. They point out that the cells in the lung show high amounts of the enzyme necessary to convert vitamin D to the activated vitamin D within the lung. This activated vitamin D has been shown to inhibit the manufacture of certain molecules that promote inflammation in the lung. Therefore having...

Heart transplant is a surgical procedure wherein a diseased heart is replaced by a healthy heart. Blood circulation is controlled by an external pump while the donor heart is connected to the major blood vessels. Heart transplant improves the expectancy and quality of life. Only those who suffer from terminal heart disease may opt for it. Some issues related to this procedure are: Life expectancy: From the studies conducted, life expectancy is seen to vary from over a year to almost 24 years. Factors influencing this include age, and compliance of recipient and match of immunology between recipient and donor. Success rate: Health problems already existing in the patient directly affect the success...

According to Kenneth Louis Smith, in his book entitled Handbook of Visual Communication: Theory, Methods and Media, aesthetics is one of the most important pieces of the visual communication puzzle. He reiterates that in the study of visual aesthetics, there are three important disciplines to consider – philosophy, science and art. The Philosophical Perspective Guralnik and Neufeldt, defined the word aesthetics as one that involves the theory and studies of beauty as well as the psychological responses made to the concept. In other words, the term aesthetics is used in a special branch of philosophy that deals with the Arts – including its creative sources and effects. This perspective about the...

For Canada and the United States, the medical school standardized admission test is the MCAT. Along with scientific knowledge, it's designed to test an applicant's writing skills and problem solving abilities. It's administered twenty five times a year and contains four sections. As scary as it sounds, going over previous MCAT sample questions and studying carefully will help out. A premed student's future is determined by the outcome of the test, so it is very important. A certain MCAT score must be obtained before a student is able to pursue medical school. So it's safe to assume that a determining moment in all doctors careers was their final score on the exam. To significantly increase the...

The proverbial panic before a test.  This is very serious.  Many very intelligent people cannot take tests.  As the stakes go up so does the anxiety level.  The biological sciences has taught us that as we become scared or threatened, our sympathetic nervous system is activated.  This is done through a series of hormonal secretions from the adrenal glands that turn on various receptors and cause a cascade of biological changes in our system. The term, "fight or flight" has been used to describe the effects of fear or the sensing of danger in the human as well as mammalian species.  Unfortunately for students, it is at work with each test.  For some reason, there are those people that are calm...

Dark Ages: The Case for a Science of Human Behavior by Lee McIntyre. Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2006. 121 pages, index. Hardcover; $24.95. ISBN: 0262134691. During the period known as The Dark Ages, the progress of Western civilization virtually stopped. The knowledge gained by scholars of the classical age was lost and for nearly 600 years "there were no significant breakthroughs in art, science, philosophy, or literature". For those six centuries, life was governed by superstition and fear fueled by ignorance. In the introduction to this book, philosopher Lee C. McIntyre raises the questions of what it would feel like to live in a "dark age" and whether we would even realize that we were living in...

Lately scientists who research the material world are discovering that the picture of the world is completely subjective and is wholly determined by the qualities of the observer. As Niels Bohr famously asserted, the researcher does not study the surrounding world, but his reactions to it. If this is so, then the natural sciences can be characterized as knowledge one attains by means of the five senses he received from birth. In contrast, the field studied by the science of Kabbalah lies above the range of the regular five senses' perception. In this sense Kabbalah is a unique science. One attains it by developing an additional inner "sensor," or a new sense. This happens by changing the vector of...

The air we breathe, the water we drink, and even the foods we eat, contain substances that may be damaging to our cells, according to Public Health scientists who have found new evidence of the threats that our toxic environment pose on our cellular health. Apparently, any tissue that is exposed to the environment, including the skin and gastrointestinal passages, is especially vulnerable. While government agencies and industry are taking steps to control additional releases into the environment, many toxic substances become concentrated in fatty tissues through a process called bioaccumulation. Animal fats in the diet present health problems in other ways. Dr. Myron Wentz, Ph.D., immunologist and...
