Flax Seeds For Post Menopausal Hot Flushes

A pilot study at the Mayo Clinic found that Flax Seeds may be helpful in reducing hot flushes in post menopasual women.

Data from 21 women not on HRT who suffered from hot flushes and took a supplement of crushed flax seeds each day showed an almost 60% decrease in the frequency of hot flushes over the course of the six week study! The researchers also reported improvement in mood, joint and muscle pain, chills and sweating. The results were considered promising and a larger clinical trial is planned in 2008 to hopefully confirm flax seeds as a new alternative to reduce hot flushes.

Flax Seeds are a rich source of plant omega3 fatty acids and lignans. Lignans are phytonutrients with weak oestrogenic properties and may be behind flaxseed's benefits for menopausal symptoms.  Read more...

Cold Fingers?

Do your fingers turn blue when you go out in the cold?

There are various reasons for poor circulation so it is advisable to get checked out by your GP.

L Theanine. The natural calming and relaxing supplement

What is L Theanine?

L Theanine is an amino acid that helps promote a restful, relaxed state without diminishing daytime alertness and without the side effects commonly associated with other relaxing agents.

How does it work?

Scientific studies show L Theanine impacts both the nervous and cardiovascular systems to produce a calming effect on mental state which is why its often referred to as the 'feel good supplement'.

Scientists have investigated L Theanine's effect on brain amino acids and neurotransmitters.

In clinical trials L Theanine was shown to increase alpha brain waves which is considered an index of alert relaxation, the daytime relaxed state.

One of the ways L Theanine is thought to produce a calming effect is by increasing the brain's level of Gamma Amino Butyric Acid GABA, a natural chemical that experts believe has a sedative action and produces feelings of well being. L Theanine which...  Read more...

Switch to an alkaline diet and neutralise body acidification

The pH level of your internal fluids affects every cell in your body.

Over acidification of the body's fluids and tissues can overwhelm your body and be a trigger for many of today's diseases such as arthritis, fatigue, heart disease and possibly even cancer.

Just as your body regulates its own temperature, so will it preserves a very narrow pH range - especially in the blood.

Your body will go to great lengths to maintain a blood pH of 7.365 that it will even create stress on other tissues or body systems to do so.

Chronic acidification will interrupt all cellular activities and functions - it interferes with life itself!

And when the pH of your body does get out of balance and become too acidic, you may experience low energy, fatigue, excess weight, poor digestion, aches and pains, and even more chronic diseases.

The process of restoring pH balance begins with proper diet and nutrition.

Vitamin D and Calcium combination strengthens muscles and can significantly reduce the risk of falls and injuries amongst elderly women

Heike A Bischoff MD of the University of Baseland colleagues began their study with the knowledge that Vitamin D improves muscle function as well as enhances Calcium metabolism. They hypothesised that Vitamin D would increase muscle strength which would reduce the risk of falling.

Bischoff asked 122 elderly women ranging from 63-99 to take either a daily supplement of 1,200mg of Calcium and 800iu of Vitamin D or just 1,200mg of Calcium for three months. At the beginning of the study, Calcium levels were low in all subjects and nearly all were deficient in Vitamin D.

The subjects were divides into two groups. For six weeks before supplementation, 15 women in what would be the Vitamin D/Calcium Group suffered 22 falls and 14 women in the Calcium Group had 20 falls. During three months of supplementation, 14 women in the Vitamin D/Calcium Group had...  Read more...

5 ways to treat period pain naturally

The Herb

Studies show that the Pine Bark remedy Pycnogenol reduced the number of painkillers menstruating women needed and also cut the days when they felt period pain.

The Mineral

Cramps are worse if you are deficient in Calcium. Take 800-100mg daily throughout the month.

The Roll on

Menastil uses Calendula Oil from Marigold Petals which reduces cramps by stimulating blood flow to the area and disrupting the pain impulses.

The Pose

Try the Yoga postures The Cobra or the Bow. Both help stretch away period pain.

Start both positions lying on your front. For The Cobra, place your hands under your shoulders and push your upper body off the floor. To do The Bow, bend your legs up and reach back with your hands to grab your feet. Try to get your legs and buttocks off the ground pushing your feet and hands against each other.

The Acupoint

Massage the centre of the triangle between your thumb and fingers. Start before your period is due.  Read more...

Statins. The truth!

Daily Mail Tuesday January 30th 2007

Are Statins worth taking and how safe are they?

The official line is that patients should not stop taking Statins.

As Professor Peter Weisberg, Medical Director of the British Heart Foundation said last week, 'There is overwhelming evidence that Statins save lives by preventing heart attacks and strokes.'

But what if you are taking Statins because you’ve had a heart attack and are worried about potential side effects? Dr Peter Langsjoen a researcher at East Texas Medical Centre in Tyler Texas believes that he has a simple and practical solution.

Ever since Statins were launched its been known that they have also dampened production of a vital enzyme called Coenzyme Q10 also known as Q10. Like cholesterol, it is made in the liver. Q10 is found in almost every cell in the body and is essential for energy production in the muscles. So giving patients a supplement of Q10 could reduce the side effects.

Statins and the associated depletion of the essential co factor Coenzyme Q10

Third Conference of the International Coenzyme Q10 Association

By Peter H Langsjoen and Alena M Langsjoen

The depletion of the essential nutrient Coenzyme Q10 by the increasingly popular cholesterol lowering drugs HMG CoA Reductase Inhibitors or Statins has grown from a level of concern to one of alarm.

With ever higher Statin potencies and dosages and with a steadily shrinking target LDL cholesterol, the prevalence and severity of CoQ10 deficiency is increasing noticeably to the physicians in the trenches of front line patient care. An estimated 36 million Americans are now candidates for Statin drug therapy.

Statin induced CoQ10 depletion has been documented in 15 animal studies in six different animal species and has been shown to correlate with decreased ATP production, increased Ischemia Reperfusion injury and increased mortality.

There are 15 published trials on Statin induced CoQ10 depletion in...  Read more...

CoQ10 helps in Ataxia.

Journal of Neurological Sciences 2006.

Several medical articles have reported benefits from high dose Coenzyme Q10 CoQ10 in the treatment of Ataxia, a neurological disease characterised by the inability to coordinate muscular movements.

Spanish researchers described the case of a 12 year old girl with Ataxia and Cerebellar Atrophy, the latter a degeneration of part of the brain.

She was found to have decreased activity in mitochondrial cellular activities involving CoQ10.

Treatment consisted of 2,500mg of CoQ10 daily, divided into three daily doses. After three months of supplementation, researchers noted improvements in movement and fine motor activities such as handwriting. The CoQ10 dosage was reduced to 1,500 mg daily. After 16 months of supplementation, the girl was able to walk without aid and signs of Cerebellar Atrophy disappeared.  Read more...

Hayfever and Bio Pycnogenol.

Many people who suffer with seasonally related streaming eyes, sore and runny nose reported a real benefit taking Bio Pycnogenol last year.

A report published in the Journal of Phytotherapy Research shows that Pycnogenol, the extract of French Maritime Pine Bark can relieve the symptoms of hay fever by inhibiting the release of histamine.

Histamines are part of the body's immune system and are released from mast cells in the body in response to perceived threats.However the body is often guilty of unecessary histamine release which causes the irritation in allergies such as hay fever and sinusitis.

Recommended usage of Bio Pycnogenol 40mg for Hayfever.

Take 2 tablets twice a day for the first two weeks and then reduce to 2 tablets a day.

This allows a high level of Pycnogenol into the body to build up the protective effect against the release of histamines.

Price comparisons show Bio Pycnogenol to be the BEST VALUE for money when compared with...  Read more...

Nourkrin. End to hair loss stress.

Its distressing for any woman to realise she is losing her hair but this remarkably common problem can be brought on by stress, hormonal changes, poor diet or even some hair styling treatments.

Whatever the cause, the body stops providing the scalp with the nutrients needed for healthy hair growth. So hair growth slows and individual strands. become thin and wispy before ceasing to grow at all.

Nourkrin nourishes the hair follicles naturally.

If the follicles receive the necessary stimulus and nutrients from the body, thinning hair can be stabilised and existing hair growth can be strengthened. Nourkrin provides those nutrients to nourish your hair naturally from within.

Scientists say that an afternoon nap fends off heart disease.

But falling asleep is not so easy……

We all know that a good snooze in the afternoon can do wonders for your health. According to a study by scientists, people who take a snooze in the afternoon are far less likely to suffer heart attacks and other stress related diseases.

And afternoon snoozers are better balanced, more cheerful, more creative and much more productive.

By snooze, scientists mean not simply a five minute shut eye but a serious sleep.

But very few of us have the ability to nod off and fall asleep straight away and in any circumstances unlike Sir Winston Churchill, Margaret Thatcher and the Duke of Wellington who reputedly could fall asleep even in the middle of a battle!

Studies support the effects of Nourkrin Man.

The Nourkrin product was developed by Finnish scientists who have had their findings published in leading British, French and Scandinavian Medical Journals.

A published study in the Anglo French Dermatology Journal showed a group of middle aged males reducing their average hair thinning from 39% to just 9% after 8 months on the programme.

After six months treatment, 40 young male subjects receiving Nourkrin showed a mean increase in non vellus hair of 38% and 95% of subjects showed both clinical and histological improvement.

A significant decrease of thinning hair in young men under 30 was observed by 75.3% of subjects and 14.6% of subjects showed partial regrowth of hair.

After two months treatment on young and middle aged men, the thinning hair had stopped in all subjects. 43% of subjects showed total regrowth, 23% greater than 75% regrowth, 13% 50-75% regrowth and 7% showed 30-50% regrowth.  Read more...

A dry scalp needs a gentle remedy.

At this time of the year the scalp can become dry and flaky.

The effects of cold weather and central heating can disrupt the moisture balance of the scalp which can become sensitive, dehydrated, and worst of all, itchy which in turn can cause unsightly and embarrassing flakes.

At the first sign of a small patch of dry skin on the shoulder its natural to assume that this is dandruff but that is not necessarily the case it may be simply a dry scalp. Dandruff which is the shedding of dead skin cells from the scalp at an excessive rate, causes large yellowish flakes to fall, the result of a sebum imbalance.

What you may be experiencing instead is an effect of environmental conditions that cause the skin on the scalp to dry out and as a result smaller white flakes to fall.

The antioxidant activity of Tocotrienols is based on the ease at which the hydroxyl group donates its electron to neutralise highly reactive free radicals making them one of the most potent naturally occuring antioxidants.

Tocotrienols, with their unsaturated side chain, pass through the membrane bi-layer mainly made up of unsaturated fatty acid, more efficiently compared to the all saturated Tocopherol.

Most edible oils and food contain Tocopherols but virtually no Tocotrienols. That is because Tocotrienols only occur at very low levels in nature and due to these minute levels, it is practically impossible to get the amount of Tocotrienols studies suggest may have a beneficial effect, from diet alone.

In addition to its powerful anti oxidant properties, Tocotrienols have profound benefits on heart health and...  Read more...

A tonic not to be sniffed at!

Aromatherapy really is good for your health!

According to a study by Japanese scientists, sniffing Lavender or Rosemary oil for just five minutes a day can reduce levels of a harmful hormone called cortisol.
It is known to cause oxidative stress, a destructive process that damages healthy cells. In the latest study, researchers at Meikal University, Japan recruited 22 healthy volunteers and took saliva samples to test for a range of substances including cortisol.

Each one had to spend five minutes inhalaing lavender or rosemary oil before the tests were repeated. The results in the Journal of Psychiatry Research showed a sharp drop in cortisol levels after sniffing the oil.  Read more...

Vitamin D. May slow down the progress of knee osteoarthritis.

A clinical trial with 140 people has been launched looking at the effects of Vitamin supplements over a two year period.

Researchers say Vitamin D could prove useful in slowing the progression of the disease.

'Even if only modestly effective, it could have considerable impact in terms of reducing the burden of osteoarthritis' they say.

In the trial at Tufts University and New England Medical Centre in the US, patients will get either 2000 international units a day of the Vitamin or a placebo.

Research has suggested low blood levels of the Vitamin may be associated with more wear and tear in the joint cartilage at the hip and knee, leading to a faster progression of the disease.  Read more...

High protein, low carb diet leads to impressive blood sugar reduction in diabetics.

Switching to a high protein, low carbohydrate diet can lead to significant improvements in blood sugar.

Switching to a high protein, low carbohydrate diet can lead to significant improvements in blood sugar according to a study of eight men with untreated type 2 diabetes.

The diet was designed to contain only 10% fat.

Mary C Gannon PhD of the Veterans Administration Medical Center Minneapolis asked the eight men to follow a high protein low carb diet for five weeks. After five more weeks they were switched to a more conventional high carb low protein diet.

The carb:protein ratio in the high protein diet was 20:30:50. In the more conventional diet it was 55:15:30.

Overall, the high protein diet led to a 36% reduction of blood sugar levels over 24 hours compared with the more conventional diet. In addition, levels of glycated haemoglobin decreased by around 22% from 9.8 to 7.6.

By the end of the...  Read more...
