Your Health Today

Let’s face it…

…We, as women, can have some serious pms, hormonal imbalance and menopause symptoms.

Do you know why?
There was a hint above - hormone imbalance can cause some seriously uncomfortable symptoms that we need to struggle with on a regular basis.

Most of us don’t want to take medications to correct these problems and really, from what I hear, nothing can replace natural hormones - like progesterone.

However, when you use a natural progesterone cream, it is likely (and as I have read in numerous reviews) that you’ll get some relief with this supplement.

I’ve been looking around online today, now that I’ve heard of this type of cream to see what’s out there.

Yes, you can get creams made with yam extracts, etc that are supposedly able to relieve some of these hormone issues.

However, if you can find a lotion like Oasis Serene progesterone cream that has bio-identical progesterone so it’s more easily assimilated into your body and will actually be an effective supplement.

Hopefully, this helps you out!!!

I got a tip today from a man at the airport when we somehow got into a conversation on kidney stones.

He explained that he has had some terrible issues with this and that his urologist suggested he drink lemonade…well, lemon juice with a bit of water, minus the sugar.

He drinks at least 2 8 oz. glasses per day of “Real Lemon” juice, as described to mix on the back of the bottle.

He says that his problems have significantly decreased since he began doing this…

Just wanted to pass this on to those of you who struggle with the unbelievable pain of kidney stones.

* About 1 In 10 People Suffer From Sort Of Hearing Loss. The Average Person Waits For 7 Years To Seek Help For Their Hearing Problem. That Means You Have Likely Spent A Lot Of Time Worrying About Whether You May Be Experiencing Some Type Of Hearing Loss!

I want to share information from an article I was stumbled by my friend, Stariuss. I was a little bit hesitant to totally buy into these suggestions…

…But as I thought about it, what in the world is there to lose? Nothing…And what is there to be gained? Possibly your hearing back, and you’ll be a little healthier from the vitamins that you take…

Now, I don’t have any other scientific data to give to you here. However, really…for all of you cynics…it’s well worth a read and a try…(Funny thing about these cynics is that they probably don’t have an issue with hearing loss, and don’t know what it is like to be willing to do anything that might help your situation…)

What I am going to do is give you what to do in a nutshell, and you can check out the link below for more information if you really want to.

Basically, there are 4 nutrients that could help you if you supplement them into your diet:

1. 150 mg Acetyl-Carnitine/day

2. 150 mg Alpha-Lipoic Acid/day

3. 50 Continue Reading…

Well, I was not sure what to think about these salt lamps before I did some research on them. Sure, they are interesting, natural and beautiful, but what else?

Basically, they are special salts that are mined in the Himalaya, as well as areas of Persia and Poland, which is rarer, and are said to be mined in an ecologically responsible manner.

They supposedly emit Negative Ions that help reduce severe allergies, sinus, depression, migraine, fatigue, ADHD and odor.

The lamps are said to clean the air of dust and pollen, which would seriously benefits asthmatics, people with lung illnesses and allergy sufferers.

Furthermore, they are good for improving learning, memory and emotional well being by the creation of balance in ions in the air.

Even though they are odorless, people have reported to feel a difference in the air. The feeling, when the lamps are lit up, is like the air after a good rain, mainly due to the creation of negative ions, just as the rain does.

They are pretty all by themselves, but when they are lit up, they produce a beautiful, peaceful, warm glow!

They come in a variety of colors. The Himalayan salt rocks have oranges from copper, reds from iron, and yellows from magnesium in the rocks, often in combination in 1 chunk of salt rock.

The Persian variety have colors of fuschia, magenta, lavender, purple and sometimes shades of white, and can even be found in the same chunk of salt at 1 time.

Polish salt chunks tend to be of orange and amber hues.

Since they are natural and decorative, they seem to be perfect around the home as accents, which also offset harmful radiation from computers, TV, and microwave ovens.

It is also said that they are good to reduce the problem of smoke, if someone in the home is a smoker.

My mother is actually going to buy this one, so she can try it out (You can purchase one too by clicking on the product below):

My mother and I both go to an acupuncturist, which works amazingly well on her arthritis inflammation. Our doctor often sends us home with miscellaneous concoctions of dried Chinese herbs in brown paper bags that she especially creates for us for whatever ailments we may have.

Right in front of us, she combines ingredients from 100s of jars of different herbs, spices and roots, etc. Super interesting just to watch her…

You are sometimes able to pick up pre-mixed pouches of Chinese herbal medicines from different Asian markets…

However, often times, there are either no instructions on how to prepare the herbs to be able to ingest them, or the instructions are in Chinese…Not very helpful to us who do not speak Chinese…LOL

Don’t fret…Here are step-by-step instructions for how to cook your Chinese herbs…

Instructions:
1. Empty the herbs into a deep saucepan.

* Tip: The best kind of container to use is ceramic. It is important that your saucepan has a lid. Materials to avoid include cast iron or metals. Stainless steel is better than the other metals, however.

2. Add enough water to cover the herbs completely. The water should cover the herbs by about 1.5″.

3. Soak the herbs for at least Continue Reading…
