20 Painkillers in Your Kitchen

Make muscle pain a memory with ginger

When Danish researchers asked achy people to jazz up their diets with ginger, it eased muscle and joint pain, swelling and stiffness for up to 63 percent of them within two months. Experts credit ginger’s potent compounds called gingerols, which prevent the production of pain-triggering hormones. The study-recommended dose: Add at least 1 teaspoon of dried ginger or 2 teaspoons of chopped ginger to meals daily.

Cure a toothache with cloves

Got a toothache and can’t get to the dentist? Gently chewing on a clove can ease tooth pain and gum inflammation for two hours straight, say UCLA researchers. Experts point to a natural compound in cloves called eugenol, a powerful, natural anesthetic. Bonus: Sprinkling a ¼ teaspoon of ground cloves on meals daily may also protect your ticker. Scientists say this simple action helps stabilize blood sugar, plus dampen production of artery-clogging cholesterol in as little as three weeks.

A Healthy Lifetime of Intimacy

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012
4321 Birch Street, Newport Beach, CA 92660
                                        (800) 488-1500 www.whitakerwellness.com No doubt about it, sexual desire and function slow down as we get older. What doesn’t change, however, is our lifelong need for intimacy. For many people, that includes satisfying sexual relations. It’s important for men and women to understand the challenges they and their partners face during this time of transition—and to be aware of therapies that enhance libido and performance in both sexes.

Good Health = Good Sex
You can’t expect to have topnotch sexual function if you have poor overall health. Hypertension, cardiovascular disease, uncontrolled diabetes, and other disorders involving impaired circulation are commonly linked with sexual dysfunction. That’s because optimal blood flow is required to produce erections in men and clitoral engorgement in women. Other conditions that can affect interest in sex and the ability to act on that interest include anxiety, depression, hormonal imbalances, chronic pain, and neurological problems. Once these health issues are tackled, desire and function often return. (more…)

The 7 Worst “Healthy Food” Imposters…

Posted Monday, May. 23rd, 2011

Everywhere you turn, someone is telling you that this is good for you or that will improve your health.  We have orange juice that supposedly lowers cholesterol, flavored waters that boost immune health, and even cookies that help you lose weight!

While most of us are already skeptical of these types of claims, there are foods out there that fly under the radar.  They masquerade as healthy, simply lying in wait in to sabotage your health.

Here are seven of the worst healthy food imposters: (more…)

Dry Brushing Offers Powerful Detoxification

Wednesday, March 28th, 2012

The skin is the body’s largest organ of elimination.  Your skin is able to eliminate as much as one-fourth of the total toxins that your body filters out–up to 2 pounds of waste each day!  But in order for your skin to do its job, it needs to be kept healthy and uncongested.  That’s why health experts recommend a very simple technique called dry brushing.  It involves the use of a soft natural bristle brush to gently remove dead skin cells.

Dr. Gloria Gilbère, a renowned natural health practitioner, explains the value of dry brushing this way:  “[With] today’s sedentary life-style, general lack of exercise, and use of antiperspirants … toxins and metabolic waste products become trapped in the body instead of being released with sweat.”  Dry brushing stimulates the sweat glands and exfoliates the skin.

     Benefits of Dry Brushing:

  • Faster elimination of toxins
  • Improved blood flow and circulation
  • Reduced cellulite
  • Accelerated lymphatic flow
  • Exfoliation of the skin
  • Cell regeneration
  • Stimulates sebaceous glands
  • Boosts immune system
  • Opens pores and cleanses skin

Carbs Without a Cause: Foods Worse Than White Bread

Wednesday, March 28th, 2012

ShapeShape – Mon, 26 Mar, 2012

White bread has pretty much become bad-for-you public enemy number one; who doesn’t automatically order their turkey and Swiss on whole wheat? The reason, of course, is that white bread is processed-it’s had all its goodness stripped away, leaving a soft, squishy slice that was all the rage in the last century. But even if you’re a whole-wheat convert, other processed carbs may be finding their way into your diet, many with more than an entire day’s worth of recommended carbohydrates.

Your first line of defense is to opt for whole foods that are as close as possible to their original source, says Manual Villacorta, RD, author of Eating Free: The Carb Friendly Way to Lose Inches. And, as always, managing portion sizes is key. Otherwise, here are eight bad carbs that may be sneaking into your diet, even if you’ve sworn off the white slices forever. (more…)

Detox your organs for a complete body cleanse

ChatelaineBy Dr. Natasha Turner | Chatelaine – Thu, 22 Mar, 2012

Detox your organs for a complete body cleanse 

Is a detox really necessary? In short, yes. The large number of pollutants we encounter every day complicate the body’s detoxification efforts, which in turn leave the body more vulnerable to illnesses and disease, not to mention hormonal imbalances.

Regardless of their source, all toxins must be processed through the body via the detoxification pathways in our liver, which is why it gets the bulk of our attention during any detox program. By supporting your other organs as well, however, you will improve the results of your detox and in turn reap the benefits of better health, glowing skin, better digestion, and increased energy.

Whole wheat helps you melt body fat.Whole wheat helps you melt body fat.

If you could make a simple change in your diet to drop more pounds and body fat, would you? A new study finds switching from refined-wheat foods (like white bread or pasta) to whole-grain versions can boost your weight loss by 35% and help you melt nearly 50% more body fat.

In a recent study reported in the Journal of Nutrition, 79 overweight or obese postmenopausal women were randomly assigned to eat a diet containing refined or whole-grain wheat products. After 12 weeks, both groups lost weight — 7.9 pounds for the whole wheat group vs.5.9 for the refined. The whole-wheat group also shed 3% body fat compared with 2.1% for the refined-wheat eaters.

Now that spring has sprung, I’m loading up on more fresh veggies, and that has me thinking about the best way to store them to keep them at their freshest.

And as it turns out, the refrigerator is not the go-to storage unit for all your produce. Below are 5 types of produce you shouldn’t keep in your fridge. (more…)

Uh-Oh! I Am In BIG Trouble!

 

Ethan A. Huff, staff writer

(NaturalNews) Millions of Americans still have no idea that many of the beverages and foods they eat on a regular basis are contaminated with a neurotoxin posing as a sugar substitute. So to help raise awareness about the pervasive presence of toxic aspartame in the American food supply, Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, has released a helpful infographic that identifies the top ten worst sources of aspartame.

The infographic highlights the use of aspartame in chewing gums, tabletop sweeteners, flavored water products, sugar-free foods and beverages, diet sodas, drink flavoring products, cooking sauces, children’s medicines, yogurts, and cereals. And while these are not the only sources of aspartame in the food supply, they are among the most common.

Top 7 myths about sleep

By Cynthia Ross Cravit | 50Plus.com – Mon, 19 Mar, 2012

In the ongoing quest for better sleep, we debunk some of the top myths about sleep, plus offer tips to help you get your zzz’s.

Insomnia affects about 40 per cent of Canadians on a regular basis, experts say, and sleep deprivation is having an ongoing effect on our physical and psychological health.

Poor sleep can lead to a number of serious health problems, including an increased risk for obesity, stress and even diseases like diabetes and hypertension.

Getting the right amount of sleep each night can also protect cognitive health and keep the brain years younger. A recent study found that middle-aged adults who slept less than six hours each night — and more than eight hours — are more likely to experience cognitive decline. This decline in brain function is equal to being four to seven years older, according to researchers. (For more information, see Smart sleeping.) (more…)

5 Ways Sleeping Less Makes You Gain Weight Prevention

PreventionPrevention – Wed, 14 Mar, 2012

If you’re what researchers call a short sleeper (measured by how long you sleep each night–5.5 to 6 hours or less qualifies you), you’ll have trouble losing weight, no doubt about it. In a 7-year study of 7,022 middle-aged people, Finnish researchers found that women who reported sleep problems were more likely to experience a major weight gain (defined as 11 pounds or more).

You know that sleep and weight gain may be linked, but why is that? Here’s what the new research has revealed, and why lack of sleep could be stalling your ability to lose weight and keep it off: (more…)
