How Bacteria in your Gut May be Affecting your Moods

30 March, 2016

When we think of bacteria, we think of our biological selves. It is not usually the case that we attribute mood changes and mental states to proliferation of bacteria. More evidence is arising that this is a mistake, however. Gut bacteria can communicate with the brain in various ways. The good news is that there are types of bacteria available to you that can work in beneficial ways with your brain, thus enhancing your moods and cognitive functions.

There is a lot of hype around ‘friendly’ bacteria, but how much of it can we be sure is true? Marketing of such bacteria as health enhancers in the form of probiotic yoghurts and other supermarket items is perhaps a clever PR stunt. The efficacy of these products is not really in question, but at least the upshot is that people are (to varying degrees) concerned with what is going on in their gut...

How to Cure Candida Overgrowth Fast

06 March, 2016

Candida is a well-known word these days, mainly because so many people have suffered after it has grown temporarily out of balance in their body at some point. Candida albicans is one of the most prevalent types of yeast that affects human beings. One cell of this yeast fungus can produce over 75 poisons and toxins; these then greatly challenge the immune system, leaving you open to other health conditions and even chronic diseases.

Candidiasis is the result of a chronic, untreated candida overgrowth that has become ‘systemic’. In other words, candida has found its way into your blood stream and set up colonies of fungus wherever was comfortable. The next question is an obvious one: Have you got it?

Plant Power: How to Cleanse with Chlorophyll

23 February, 2016

Nature likes to spell things out for us, but as it doesn’t use language, this is done in a metaphorical way. This means we need to be open to and looking for the visual evidence if we’re to understand this tuition. We know that certain foods are good for us because we can feel the benefits, but nature actually tells us which foods work on what body parts before we even eat it. For example, walnuts are great for brain health, and they happen to look like our brains. This is only one example of many – so many it would be impossible to list them all - but it’s not only shapes that nature uses to give us clues about how natural foods can help us.

We know that we need to take care of our vital organs, but the systems of our bodies need just as much care and attention, from the respiratory, to the reproductive and the circulatory. Fortunately, plants give us the clues we need by mimicking the very functions of our own bodies.

How to Boost Your Health with Vitamins: Natural Vs Synthetic

03 February, 2016

Vitamins are simply the organic molecules required by our bodies. The thing is that our bodies can’t make many of them, so we turn to food for our main source of nutrition. There is one problem with that though, these days: food is not as nutritious as it used to be, as modern agricultural practices and toxic pesticides have depleted the minerals in the very soil that the foods are grown in. On top of this, genetically modified foods are an unpredictable issue and whatever the outcome, it doesn’t look good in terms of human health and vitality.

The pH Balancing Act: Alkalising for Vitality

17 November, 2015

In modern times, health issues have become both widespread and complex, largely due to the myriad factors contributing to imbalance. Some of these factors include environmental toxicity like electromagnetic radiation, cigarette smoke, pollution and industrial chemicals like fluoride; other toxic substances such as vaccines and chemicals in household cleaning products, as well as skin care and beauty products. In some instances heredity may be an issue, and some babies may be born with low immunity. The largest factor of all - regardless of whether modern medicine chooses to acknowledge it - is undoubtedly diet. Many use food and drink for entertainment or emotional comfort – if they perceived it as fuel for the body, their choices might be different.
