<title>Electro Pollution  Is it REALLY a Threat </title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/3679/278/Electro-Pollution-Is-it-REALLY-a-Threat.html</guid>
<description>Author : Connie Baum&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;We are spiritual beings having human experiences&amp;quot;  - Deepak Chopra
&lt;br&gt;   
&lt;br&gt;The good doctor is correct; we ARE spiritual beings   But we are also electrical   Because of the electrical nature of our biology we are all in peril; in fact, we are in crisis!  Electro pollution is the radiation that surrounds us and it is very dangerous, particularly to our children 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;This toxic soup of radiation surrounds us   It is unseen, cannot be smelled or tasted or touched, but it invades our very cells   It comes from anything with a cord or battery; anything that is wireless or depends on any kind of power source 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;The reason why this electro pollution-some refer to it as electromagnetic pollution- is so damaging is that it destroys our DNA    Because our bodies are incapable of cleaning up this dreadful nuclear matter our brains are especially susceptible to the damaging effects  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Children&amp;#039;s&amp;#039; brains are even more adversely affected because a child&amp;#039;s developing brain has no defense and the thickness of a child&amp;#039;s skull is 2&amp;quot; as opposed to the 5&amp;quot; of an adult skull   Cancers and tumors seize on this opportunity to cause illness 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;This is the Number One reason why children should not be using cell phones and other electronic devices without being protected from the harmful effects 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;The public has not been fully apprised of this information, in part because of the politics of doing business   It would be impractical to go off the grid, of course   And who would choose to revert to pre-power days with all the hardships of the era?  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;In George Carlo&amp;#039;s book about the dangers of electromagnetic pollution he points out that if you follow the science, you can follow the money   Westinghouse had a hydroelectric project they wanted to promote, even though they were fully aware that all the scientific data pointed to serious, deadly trouble with emissions of EMFs   They pretended not to have information about the dangers and moved forward   They chose the low road   They knew that electricity can be implicated in every ailment known to mankind from aches and pains to full blown and incurable cancers but they chose the status quo   They chose to be in denial of the facts 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;The documentation is shocking and appalling:  There is no shortage of overwhelming scientific proof that the technology is not good for human growth; bad for human development and there is serious blood/brain barrier leakage, especially where children are concerned 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;In the case of cell phones those were not tested to see how dangerous they were, because the power grids were in place after lots of money was invested and the progress could not be slowed or stopped by the inconvenience of testing procedures   The knowledge of the dangers of cell phones to the public has never even been imparted!  But there are thermo graphic images that depict the ill effects   In these images the eye can SEE the radiation entering the skull!
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;You may recall how slow the reaction was to the news that tobacco was unsafe   Miners and school children; health care workers and so many people died from the ill effects of smoke, asbestos, poor air quality  The facts were ignored while funerals, which were the direct result of toxicity, were held   But the facts surrounding the deadly toxins were ignored, denied, squelched and hidden   And while the tobacco companies insisted their products were safe, the Marlboro man passed away because he was a smoker 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;There is no escaping this risk!  We must take action to protect ourselves!  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;There are three parts to dealing with this matter:
&lt;br&gt;1 	Primarily, we need to decrease the presence of EMFs and intervene 
&lt;br&gt;2 	Secondarily, it&amp;#039;s important to give the body the energy to heal itself 
&lt;br&gt;3 	Nutritionally, we need to have the elements necessary to protect the body 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Wireless technology, and electro pollution or electro magnetic frequencies are everywhere!  Bio frequencies can cause cellular shutdown   Igor Smirnoff developed a polymer technology that creates a magnetic noise field to help the body cope with these irregular frequencies that attack the body&amp;#039;s defense mechanisms   He calls this technology &amp;quot;MRET&amp;quot; or Molecular Resonance Energy Technology 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Smirnoff&amp;#039;s work prevents cellular shutdown and eliminates dysfunction in the body   The Energy Resonance Technology assists with intracellular communication-it gets the body&amp;#039;s cells &amp;quot;talking&amp;quot; to one another   This is an important aspect to our well being 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;All of Smirnoff&amp;#039;s work shows that the body&amp;#039;s responses can be tracked and documented   Vast improvement is noted in control groups between the protected vs the unprotected   The absorption rate, the blood flow in the brain, red blood cells&amp;mdash;all function far more efficiently when protection is provided for the body 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Knowledge is power   Use your knowledge to make wise decisions about how you and those you love might be protected from the deadly threats of electro pollution and electro magnetic frequencies

<title>Statins Impair Immune System Function</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/10386/274/Statins-Impair-Immune-System-Function.html</guid>
<description>Author : Byron J. Richards&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The statin drug Zocor (simvastatin) has been shown to directly compromise the immune response to an opportunistic infection   This is not good news for any person taking any statin, as the type of impairment involved seriously compromises basic immune system function 
&lt;br&gt; 
&lt;br&gt;The production of cholesterol is much like an automobile assembly line, except with multiple branches that build other things at the same time (a novel system of efficiency)   The various molecules produced are vital to your survival   Indeed, cholesterol synthesis is the backbone of survival   The primary cholesterol production line is called the HMG-CoA reductase pathway   Important branches include the production of selenoproteins that run your antioxidants and thyroid, as well as the production of coenzyme Q10 and vitamin D   One of these branches involves the production of novel compounds called isoprenoids (geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate and farnesyl pyrophosphate)   Isoprenoids also occur in nature in fat-soluble nutrients like carotenes   In fact, the power of tocotrienol vitamin E compared to regular vitamin E is due primarily to the fact that tocotrienols have a side chain molecule that is an isoprenoid   These isoprenoids play a vital role in attaching fatty substances to proteins, a process called protein prenylation   Proper protein prenylation is required for the healthy function of many cells in your body, including the prevention of cancer   Taking any statin reduces the protein prenylation activities in your body via suppressing the production of the isporenoids needed to carry out this activity   This is a highly undesirable side effect of statins 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;The new research looked into the function of macrophages, important members of your front line immune troops   Some macrophages were treated with Zocor at a relevant physiologic dose and others were not   They were then exposed to a common bacterial infection   The Zocor-treated macrophages experienced a double-negative whammy   Their ability to engulf the bacteria was crippled   Next, the macrophages generated excessive inappropriate inflammatory signals   The researchers traced the molecular malfunction to the fact that the statin blocked proper protein prenylation within the macrophage, crippling its function 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;While I have tried to make this rather complex issue as simple as possible to understand, the bottom line is that this is a highly adverse effect on human immunity that will cause more severe infections in humans or allow low-grade infections to gain a hold within the human body and wreak havoc to health   In turn, these infections will increase the overall inflammatory burden that is now known to be a primary contributing factor to poor health and all &amp;quot;diseases of aging &amp;quot;  On this point alone the use of statins should be banned for 95% of the people currently taking them as there is no way the benefits could possibly outweigh the risks   The medical profession prescribing these drugs invariably ignores or doesn&amp;#039;t understand this type of study and hopes the general public doesn&amp;#039;t understand health well enough to be concerned

<title>Abnormal Brain Structure in Schizophrenia</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/9949/356/Abnormal-Brain-Structure-in-Schizophrenia.html</guid>
<description>Author : Byron J. Richards&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The post-mortem analysis of the brains of patients with schizophrenia compared to  normal brain shows severe dysregulation in the matrix outside of brain cells that holds them together in key regions of the subconscious brain associated with learning, memory, and the processing of stress   The finding is the first of its kind and it essentially means that the roads and highways that hold brain cells in position are at least as important as the neurotransmitter status that up to this time has received the lion&amp;#039;s share of attention 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;The researchers looked at the chondroitin sulfate structure of the important matrix between brain cells that enables the actual structure of a brain part   They focused on two important brain regions, the entorhinal cortex (memory and behavior) and the amygdala (compulsions, anxiety, hostility, stress response)   They found that the glial cells expressed up to 15 fold normal activity with chondroitin sulfate   This means that the brain&amp;#039;s of schizophrenic patients are in a desperate attempt to repair their cellular matrix and restore brain function  -  an attempt that while ongoing was clearly not working   This can be concluded by the fact that the physical mass of these brain areas, compared to controls, was less than normal 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Because glial cells regulate both brain inflammation and brain repair, it is clear that serious mental health problems involve excessive inflammation with a lack of repair   Even if the glial cells are trying to make a repair, something is getting in their way 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;This study is important to everyone as it is likely that part of the decline of nervous system function involves glial cell interaction with the chondroitin sulfate rich structure of the cellular matrix between brain cells   It is likely that any level of mental health issue, ranging from ADHD to depression to anxiety as well as nerve transmission problems will have at least as part of their issue the structural integrity of the brain cell matrix, directly affecting synaptic plasticity and overall brain health   
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Most people know that chondroitin sulfates are good for their joints   Fewer seem to know they are vital for the healthy structure of their arteries   While this story is just beginning, they may turn out to be vital to mental health!  Certainly, any solution that enables the restoring of the physical structure of the brain and the proper structural framework of any one brain part is likely to lend to better overall connectivity and fewer problems with mental health issues

<title>Berries for Brain Protection</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/13786/540/Berries-for-Brain-Protection.html</guid>
<description>Author : Byron J. Richards&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, etc   -  America is a berry rich country   These wonder foods are well known for their  antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties due for the most part to the substances that give them color, polyphenols, or more specifically anthocyanins   A new array of emerging gene science is demonstrating that the protective effects of these nutrients to your brain go far beyond their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and are intimately involved with the genes that regulate the natural defense systems in your brain 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;The United States Department of Agriculture is the world leader in berry-related health research, especially as it involves neuro-protection   Their research over the past 15 years has shown that rats fed berry extracts (blueberry and strawberry) have significantly less neuronal damage and impaired cognitive function as they age, leading researchers to claim back in 1999 that &amp;quot;in addition to their known beneficial effects on cancer and heart disease, phytochemicals present in antioxidant-rich foods may be beneficial in reversing the course of neuronal and behavioral aging &amp;quot;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;In 2005 the USDA researchers began to understand that the health benefits of berries extended beyond their potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and were involved with gene-related cell signaling   They were the first to discover that part of the power of berries was their ability to facilitate and maintain normal communication between brain cells   Later that year these same researchers showed that blueberries could improve neuronal plasticity in the hippocampus (memory and spatial function)   Plasticity or flexibility of brain structure is a primary sign of health   During Alzheimer&amp;#039;s one of the first areas of the brain to suffer damage is the hippocampus   Later research conducted in the UK shows that blueberries can activate the production of BDNF (brain derived neurotrophic factor), a key signal that stimulates the production of new brain cells that results in enhanced plasticity  -  a potent brain anti-aging effect 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Heat shock proteins (HSP) are used by nerve cells to protect themselves against stress   In 2006 USDA researchers showed that HSP levels in older rats decline compared to young rats   When challenged with the standardized toxin known as LPS, the older rats had less HSP activity and greater brain damage   However, supplementing the older rats with blueberry extract completely reversed the age-associated decline in HSP activity and thereby protected the rats from LPS toxic damage 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;By 2007 scientists were becoming aware of the extreme importance of glial cells in the brain, which make up 90% of your brain mass   The new science was showing that as glial cells &amp;quot;heat up&amp;quot; from inflammation then brain energy declines, free radical damage really ramps up, and the brain becomes sensitized to excitotoxic damage  -  including exaggerated damage from high stress   USDA researchers now proved that blueberry could cool of multiple aspects of overheated glial cells, significantly reducing key brain inflammation   This included turning down unfriendly nitric oxide (iNOS) and TNFa, two potent inducers of brain damage   A 2010 study conducted at the Medical University of South Carolina has again proven that blueberry extract can reduce inflammation in these important glial cells 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Another 2007 USDA study exposed rats to whole body radiation which induced significant damage to the brain   A diet fortified with either blueberry or strawberry extract prevented the radiation induced damage to the brain   Interestingly, strawberries had the most impact on spatial placement whereas blueberries had the most impact on learning  -  indicating that various different berries may have different benefits to various brain regions in terms of protection 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;In 2008 USDA researchers showed that blueberries enhanced multiple gene functions in the brain to better deal with inflammation from a toxic exposure   Considering that the brains of one and all are being exposed to similar toxic stress on a daily basis from general air pollution (not to mention many other issues), it is likely that blueberries are a natural way to help the genes in your brain regulate more efficiently under the exposure to various forms of stress   
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;In 2009 the USDA researchers summarized years of their research   &amp;quot;Antioxidant-rich berries consumed in the diet can positively impact learning and memory in the aged animal  This effect on cognition is thought to be due to the direct interaction of berry polyphenols with aging neurons, reducing the impact of stress-related cellular signals and increasing the capacity of neurons to maintain proper functioning during aging &amp;quot;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Later in 2009 USDA researchers expanded their berry research to include blackberries, feeding old rats blackberries to see if it could improve their cognitive function   Blackberries were able to improve motor coordination, balance, and short-term memory   The researchers concluded, &amp;quot;These data support our previous investigations in which we have seen improved motor and cognitive performance in aged rats after supplementation with other berry fruits &amp;quot;  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Earlier this year a small human study of 9 older individuals with beginning signs of memory impairment was conducted   Daily blueberry intake over a 12 week period improved learning, word recall, and symptoms of depression   The authors concluded that &amp;quot;moderate-term blueberry supplementation can confer neurocognitive benefit &amp;quot;  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Fascinating new research at the USDA shows that berries activate the natural house-cleaning process within your brain so damage does not accumulate and lead to cognitive decline   This finding involves the healthy function of your glial cells   One of their important chores is as a &amp;quot;trash man&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;house cleaner &amp;quot;  They are responsible for a process called autophagy, which removes and recycles debris which would otherwise clog brain function   During aging the autophagy process slows down, clogging brain cells and causing them to malfunction (like trying to prepare food in a dirty kitchen)   The researches showed this process is rejuvenated by extracts of berries   The favorite berry of the researchers at USDA is the blueberry, followed by blackberries and strawberries   
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Collectively these studies demonstrate that berries, especially blueberries, are highly protective to your brain   Partly this involves their well documented antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects   However, a significant body of science shows that they are directly helping to regulate genes to offset stress, improve brain communication, clean up brain waste products, and stimulate the production of new brain cells   This is an impressive body of science showing that berries are good for your brain

<title>High Intake of EPA DHA Reduces Risks for Cardiovascular Disease</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/9709/534/High-Intake-of-EPA-DHA-Reduces-Risks-for-Cardiovascular-Disease.html</guid>
<description>Author : Byron J. Richards&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;By now just about everyone is aware that consuming essential fatty acids like DHA is vital to your cardiovascular health, weight management, and general inflammation reduction   In general, the more health problems you have relating to cardiovascular health, blood sugar, weight, and inflammation, the higher the level of intake should be   A new study with Eskimos suggests that more is better as the study authors concluded, &amp;quot;Increasing EPA and DHA intakes to amounts well above those consumed by the general US population may have strong beneficial effects on chronic disease risk &amp;quot;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Studying the Eskimo population is interesting because you have the group that has been westernized to eat a diet of junk fat and refined carbohydrates and you have the more traditional eaters of very high essential fatty acid intake in the form of fish   The study clearly showed that those with the highest intake of essential fatty acids EPA and DHA had the lowest levels of triglycerides, the highest levels of &amp;quot;good&amp;quot; HDL cholesterol, and the lowest levels of inflammation   Higher DHA levels predicted lower LDL cholesterol 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;You are what you eat in terms of fat   In the study, red blood cell membranes were analyzed for their percentage of EPA and DHA   The highest levels averaged 6 8%, which translates to approximately 6 8% of fat intake as EPA and DHA (9% was the high end)   Lets say you eat 2000 calories per day and 30% of that is in the form of fat (a fairly typical dietary pattern for generally health conscious Americans)   This means you are eating 600 calories of fat per day, or 66 grams of fat   To hit the 6 8% mark in the study you would need 4 5 grams of EPA/DHA (4500 milligrams)   To hit the 9% mark you would need 6 grams of EPA/DHA (6000 milligrams) 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;I have previously explained in my article, DHA, Krill Oil &amp; Green-Lipped Mussel  -  Which is Best? why doses ranging from 1000 mg to 4000 mg of EPA/DHA are so valuable to your health   This new study indicates that some should choose even higher levels of intake, up to 6000 mg, especially if difficult metabolic problems are occurring   Of course, the people at the high end of intake in this study were not doing so to fix a metabolic problem  -  they were just eating this much as a way of life  -  and their classic biomarkers of cardiovascular disease were better than those with lower intake

<title>The Most Effective   Humane Treatment for Dog with Crystals in Urine</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/5804/415/The-Most-Effective-Humane-Treatment-for-Dog-with-Crystals-in-Urine.html</guid>
<description>Author : Laura Ramirez&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You may be shocked to learn that the most effective treatment for dog with crystals in urine is not prescription drugs  In this article, you will learn why medications are not always the best option and which safe and effective treatment options you should consider instead 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Crystals in Urine of Dog &amp; the Cons of Antibiotics
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;If your dog has the Struvite variety of bladder stones, then these stones can be eliminated using natural supplements or antibiotics  With all the arguments over the use of prescription drugs in humans, it&amp;#039;s time we took a hard look at the disadvantages of using antibiotics on our cherished pets  Firstly, it&amp;#039;s crucial to note that antibiotics are drugs and no drug is without its side effects  Bladder crystals are excruciating and since your pet is already in misery, you don&amp;#039;t want to complicate this with side effects caused by the very drug that is supposed to be a treatment 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Second, even if this treatment for dog with crystals in urine is effective, it can lead to issues in the future  This is because the overuse of antibiotic drugs has led to the development of bacteria-resistant strains which means that if your dog gets an infection or something else that must be treated with antibiotics in the future, the drug may not be effective  Add to this the fact that prescription drugs do not heal the cause of crystals in dog urine, but only control the symptoms with the hope that the body will heal itself and you begin to see how ineffective these medicines can really be 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;This is why pet owners all over the globe are relying on holistic remedies  These supplements contain proven herbs that heal the cause of the problem, fix the bladder pH (so infection cannot grow and bladder crystals cannot form) and also ease and heal sore tissues, quickly diminishing pain  Best of all, they are effective, gentle enough to use daily (for elderly pets or those that are prone to urinary issues and are 100% safe 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Of course, it goes without saying that some remedies are better than others  Look for one that contains herbs that have proven effective in clinical trials like Staphysagris, Cantharis and Uva Ursi  This is the most effective way of treating crystals in urine of dog on the market today because it works, your pet will not build a tolerance and there are no troubling side effects  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;In addition to giving your pet a natural supplement, make sure your dog is eating a healthy diet natural kibble is best), has lots of fresh filtered water (dehydration can lead to urinary issues and gets lots of attention and regular exercise  Following these steps means that your dog will heal fast and get back his energy and vitality &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Published By: &lt;a href="http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/"&gt;Holistic Health Articles&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

<title>ADHD Behavior Problems and What Parents Can Do About Them</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/5533/354/ADHD-Behavior-Problems-and-What-Parents-Can-Do-About-Them.html</guid>
<description>Author : Laura Ramirez&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;ADHD behavior problems can be challenging for parents and for children  Since these issues can affect a child&amp;#039;s ability to learn and perform in school and his relationships with peers, it is crucial to learn the best tips for dealing with them  In this article, you&amp;#039;ll discover three essential ways that you can help your child deal with and get beyond these problems 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;ADHD emotional problems can reveal themselves in the form of irritability, moodiness, acting out, tantrums and threatening behavior  Although these are signs of the dysfunction caused by ADHD, there are many medical professionals who believe that this is also a symptom of malnutrition  This doesn&amp;#039;t mean that you are starving your child, but that your child&amp;#039;s brain is not getting the nutrition it needs to create the relaxed, happy state of mind which should be typical during childhood 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;This is why good food is so important  The diet we eat is our medicine: It provides the nutrients that produce energy and feel-good neurochemicals in the brain  If you are giving your child a junk food diet that is made from chemicals that make ADHD emotional problems worse, then this becomes a vicious cycle  Instead of fast food or food packed with chemicals, artificial coloring and additives, choose lean meat, healthy oils like olive oil, unprocessed grains (like whole wheat and whole grain rice) and lots of leafy greens and other vegetables  Fresh fruit in season can make for a scrumptious, naturally sweet dessert  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Let&amp;#039;s face it: Mineral-deficient soils, pesticides and toxins in the environment mean that children are no longer getting the phytonutrients that can help repair brain function and stop ADHD behavior problems for good  This is why adding a natural supplement to a healthy diet is crucial  Of course, it&amp;#039;s even more critical if your child is still eating junk food  These supplements are completely natural and made specifically to treat ADHD symptoms and repair proper brain function, so that one day, your child can stop taking them 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Look for a remedy that contains herbs like Verta Alb, Hyoscyamus and Tuberculinum which have been shown clinically effective to curb ADHD behavior problems by creating a serene sense of awareness which increases focus, impulse control and the ability to follow a task to its completion  These herbs also curb hyperactivity, moodiness, restlessness and more  Since they have no side effects and do not interact negatively with other drugs, they can be used safely in all situations  It helps to know that most of these remedies are FDA-approved 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;In addition to feeding your child a healthy diet and a quality supplement, ADHD emotional problems can also be controlled by teaching your child coping strategies that will help him make healthy choices even under stress  Find yourself a good at-home behavioral therapy program or take your child to a counselor  Taking this approach is part of a skills-not-pills approach to getting your child back on track so he can have a happy, normal childhood and do well at school, in relationships and at home &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Published By: &lt;a href="http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/"&gt;Holistic Health Articles&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

<title>How Dog Food for Bladder Stones Will Help Your Dog Get Better Fast</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/5306/415/How-Dog-Food-for-Bladder-Stones-Will-Help-Your-Dog-Get-Better-Fast.html</guid>
<description>Author : Laura Ramirez&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Many pet lovers don&amp;#039;t realize that dog food for bladder stones can be very effective at dissolving stones as long as you select good kibble  In this article, you&amp;#039;ll learn what to look for and how taking some simple steps will prevent bladder crystals, urinary tract infections and increase your dog&amp;#039;s immunity 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;The reason that specially formulated dog food for dogs with bladder stones works is that it does not contain the ingredients in most commercial brands that alter the pH of the bladder, which allows for the formation of bladder crystals and urinary tract infections  What most pet owners do not know is that the kibble that they purchase in grocery stores is junk food for dogs  Since food is our medicine, feeding your dog junk food kibble sets the stage for disease, infection and even cancer  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Most commercial brands kibble contain pesticides, preservatives, additives and fillers that provide no nutrients  They also contain meat byproducts instead of real meat  Dogs are carnivores and they need real protein in order to build strong, healthy bodies   When choosing the type of kibble to feed your pet, remember that good food is crucial to good health  This is why you should feed your dog food for bladder stones that is organic and has been specifically formulated with lean meat and vital nutrients  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;While organic food is more expensive, it is worth the extra expense because your dog will eat less because the nutrition in the food will make him feel fuller more satisfied  Second, your bills from the vet will be lower over the lifetime of your dog because he will not be prone to the problems caused by poor nutrition  Ultimately, this means that your dog will live a long and happy life  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Always go through the ingredient list when buying organic kibble  There should be real meat, good oils, whole grains and vegies on the label  There should be no chemicals, additives or long words that are difficult to pronounce 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Although organic dog food is essential, it is also crucial to give your dog a natural supplement that has been formulated specifically to dissolve bladder crystals  While finding the right supplement may take some time and research, it is well worth it because it will support the effects of healthy food and speed the elimination of bladder crystals while soothing inflamed tissues and eliminating pain  Look for a natural supplement that contains herbs like Cantharis and Uva Ursi  This is an excellent combination of proven herbs that when given along with organic dog food for bladder stones will help your dog recover  quickly without any of the harmful side effects caused by prescription medicines  For dogs that have a tendency to urinary issues, these supplements are gentle enough for daily use  They will also prevent urinary tract infections 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Beside providing special dog food for dogs with bladder stones and a good quality supplement, make sure to give your dog plenty of fresh, clean water which hydrates your dog and flushes toxins from the body  Also ensure that your dog gets regular exercise and a daily dose of love and attention from the person he loves most: his master! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Published By: &lt;a href="http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/"&gt;Holistic Health Articles&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

<title>Shrink Varicose Veins with the Amazing Power of Calendula</title>
<guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.holistichealtharticles.com/Art/4589/337/Shrink-Varicose-Veins-with-the-Amazing-Power-of-Calendula.html</guid>
<description>Author : Francine Davidovich&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Calendula extract, made from a plant called Pot Marigold, is a species of marigold flower that has been used as a medicinal herb since ancient times in many cultures  Its Latin name is Calendula Officinalis  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;This plant is unique in that its lovely orange petals, being completely edible, are oftentimes used as a garnish in place of the herb saffron  Its bittersweet leaves make a tasty, healthful addition in salads  But this aromatic annual plant, which typically grows to about half a meter in height, has many other unusual and amazing properties  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Since its flower petals are anti-bacterial, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory, this helpful little plant is well equipped to heal many varied ailments  Some external problems it relieves are: lacerations, abrasions, skin blemishes, skin rashes, tissue wounds, chapped or peeling lips and diaper rash  Internally, it can effectively treat gum and tooth infections, painful hemorrhoids, ulcerated veins, inflamed throats and tonsillitis 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;I would like to add that Calendula can be made into a cream to shrink and reduce the pain and swelling of varicose veins  When Calendula is added to a cream or lotion it can be massaged into the swollen, blue or purple veins anywhere on the body  Used on a daily basis, this application can not only reduce the inflammation associated with varicose veins but it can act as a rejuvenator for them, strengthening weak vein walls in both varicose and spider veins 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;If you suffer from swollen or heavy legs, itching veins or notice changes in the color of your ankles when on your feet for prolonged periods, Calendula can help you  It has powerful circulation enhancing abilities that prevent legs from tiring easily because it increases the blood flow from the feet and ankles back up to the heart  This increased circulatory action will give you more leg energy and help the heart to pump more oxygen throughout the body  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;A natural alternative to vein removal, Calendula cream is available at a price you can afford and is popular and easy to use  After using this formulated cream for a period of time, it can help shrink varicose and spider veins as well as diminish their appearance, giving you much more attractive, smoother legs  
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Invisi-vein is a 100% all-natural varicose vein and spider vein treatment cream made by Venus Naturals  Its unique ingredients not only include the amazing, healing powers of Calendula extract but also pain relieving essential oils
