Fish Oil

Fish Oil Helps Post Heart Attack

Laurence S. Sperling, MD, associate professor of medicine at Emory University School of Medicine, and founder and director of Preventive Cardiology at the Emory Clinic, Atlanta, Georgia.

In Europe, it’s considered routine for a doctor to prescribe fish oil which contains omega-3 fatty acids usually in addition to other medical interventions to increase the odds of survival after someone suffers a heart attack. In contrast, most American who have heart attacks are treated primarily whit expensive drugs and invasive procedures. An increasing number of cardiologists in this country now agree it may be time to more aggressively add safe, effective and inexpensive fish oils to the standard mix of post heart attack treatments.

Fish Oil Capsules

For expert advice, we asked Laurence S. Sperling, MD, associate professor of medicine at Emory University School of Medicine and director of Preventive Cardiology at the Emory Clinic in Atlanta, Georgia.

“Not only do I agree with this approach,”says Dr. Sperling, “the American Heart Association (AHA) recommends omega-3 fatty acids from fish for those without coronary heart disease (CHD) and that those with CHD consume it preferably from fish, or through supplements under doctor supervision.”

Doctor supervise supplementation is recommended for those with high triglycerides.

A SAFE, LOW-TECH APPROACH

The AHA confirms that consuming fatty fish (such as salmon, herring, trout and sardines) or fish oil supplements has been shown to reduce coronary heart disease mortality in those with coronary disease. Omega-3s work by:

• Reducing inflammation.


• 
  Decreasing stickiness of blood platelets – That can lead to the clots that cause heart attacks and strokes.

• 
  Slowing the growth of atherosclerotic plague – The deposits in the arteries.


• Decreasing triglyceride levels.

The AHA suggests that people with no known coronary heart disease should eat fish at least twice a week to reduce cardiovascular risk, and advises people who have existing heart disease to have one gram of fish oil daily containing the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) or consume fish with 1g of EPA and DHA. Omega-3 activity varies widely across species and location of the fish (the colder the water the fish lives in, the higher the concentration of omega-3in its tissues).

For example, 2 to 41/2 oz. of salmon contains 1 g of EPA and DHA…11/2 to 2 oz. of herring contains 1 g. But some deep water fish are contaminated with toxins such as mercury, PCBs and dioxins.

Note: According to the FDA, up to 3 grams a day of EPA or DHA from fish oil is generally recognized as safe. Fish oil supplements are largely free of toxins, since the oil is processed to remove them.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN ASUPPLEMENT

Fortunately, it’s not necessary to buy the most expensive supplement to get a quality fish oil. Look for supplements that contain both EPA and DHA (such as Nordic Naturals and Pharmax products) are molecularly distilled (so they are generally contaminant-free) are encapsulated under nitrogen which makes for a less fishy aroma and taste then when manufactured with oxygen are highly concentrated so you can take capsules and are verified by the United States Pharmacopeia  (USP), which sets quality standards for pharmaceutical and dietary supplements.

Of course, as with any dietary supplement, you must check with your doctor before adding fish oil to your health regimen especially if you have other chronic diseases and/or are taking medication that said, fish oil can be a safe, effective, inexpensive and high-tech approach commonly used to heart attack patients in this country.

List of Popular Oils Aromatherapy

Before reading this article, please read “Important Information about Aromatherapy“

Here’s a list of popular oils that address some common problems, as well as those common among people in treatment for cancer…

• Lavender

Great as a general relaxant, it also treats migraines and relieves stress. It is excellent for insomnia resulting from cancer treatment.

• Rosemary

For muscle pain, low blood pressure (do not use if you have uncontrolled or high blood pressure) and cold feet and hands. Rosemary aids a loss of appetite.

• Spearmint

Used to ease nausea and to help digestion. Also can help ease gas and other treatment related digestive problems.

• Eucalyptus or peppermint

For rubbing on sore muscles. Eucalyptus may also help joints, including arthritic ones. Eucalyptus may increase the absorption of certain cancer drugs that are applied topically, so use caution and try a patch test first, avoiding application to the same area as the cancer drug.

• Pink grapefruit or juniper berry

Used with massage to encourage lymphatic drainage of toxins and waste. Pink grapefruit is one of Perez’s favorite for cancer patients, as she believes it help energize them and raise their spirits. This and all citrus-type oils should be avoided during chemo and radiation-and should not be used until speaking with your doctor.

• Lemongrass, tea tree and orange

Mix together into two cups of Epsom salts. Use five drops of each oil-a total of 15 drops-for a soothing bath (use one-half cup per bath).

 

Helpful: Aromatherapy has become so popular that essential oils are now widely available, including in health food stores and supermarkets. However, Perez advises that it is far better to purchase them from a shop with a staff knowledgeable in aromatherapy. Oils should come in dark blue or brown glass  containers, which prevent light or heat damage. Avoid bottles with rubber droppers-the rubber breaks down and contaminates the oil. Finally, the botanical name of the oil (for example Peppermint/Mentha piperita ).

If you would like to learn more about how to incorporate aromatherapy in your life, Perez recommends The Complete Book of Essential Oils & Aromatherapy, by Valerie Ann Worwood (New World Library), which she says is both thorough and easily understood. Again, as in the case with skin sensitivities, people with asthma or allergies need to avoid things that might trigger an attack-for example, chamomile is in the ragweed family.

Important: People who want to try inhalation aromatherapy should use only a few drops (two or three) of essential oils in a basin of water or diffuser, or on a napkin. And always consult with your doctor before using aromatherapy or any complementary therapy.

Aromatherapy Helps Heal Cancer Patients

Cherie Perez, RN, quality assurance specialist in the department of GU Medical Oncology at M.D. Anderson Caqncer Center in Houston.

Aromatherapy

L

ike so many New Age practices and beliefs, aromatherapy has ancient roots. The use of essential oils to affect mood and well-being can be found far back in Egyptian, Greek and Roman history. In fact, when the three kings of biblical fame brought gifts, including gold, to baby Jesus, their other highly prized offerings were frankincense and myrrh…resins from these herbs are still in use today. While scientific evidence about aromatherapy is scant, its long-standing role in spirituality and healing, along with strong anecdotal support of its modern-day benefits, gives essential oils an important role as a complementary alternative medicine therapy.

Cherie Perez, RN, quality assurance specialist in the department of GU Medical Oncology at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, is a strong proponent of aromatherapy, including as an adjunct for cancer treatment. She teaches monthly classes for patients on the topic.

Used properly, Perez, says essential oils can indirectly help bolster immune function in cancer patients, strengthening their ability to fight back against the disease by helping to ease pain, depression, sleeplessness and stress. The oils can also help relieve anxiety and improve memory-both frequent problems for people in cancer treatment as well as those who are healthy. Further more, aromatherapy offers patients an opportunity to take time for themselves and enjoy a mental and emotional break from their world of medicines and doctors.

ESSENTIALS ABOUT ESSENTIAL OILS

Some of the most popular essential oils include:

• Rosemary


• Eucalyptus


• Lavender


• Chamomile

They have various scents such as:

• Floral


• Minty


• Citrus


• Masculine

Perez advises using the ones you like best among the choices indicate for a specific treatment, since more than one oil may address the same problem. She explains that the limbic system, with which the sense of smell triggers, is the emotional seat of the brain, which is the reason why people often respond strongly to certain scents positively or negatively. Lavender, for example, might bring back warm memories of a trip to Provence, or sour thoughts about a dour relative who wore it as a fragrance.

BEST PRACTICES

All oils are highly concentrated distillations of plant parts, including the flowers, leaves, branches and roots. Because they are so potent (hundreds of times more concentrated than the culinary fresh or dried herb or herbal teas, and therefore easy to overdose on) they should be used carefully with the advice from practitioner, such as a naturopathic physician, registered nurse, massage therapist, clinical herbalist or aroma therapist.

Essential oils can be

• inhaled (safest with a simple diffuser),


• enjoyed in your bath or


• massaged onto your skin (but never directly in their undiluted form…because they can cause a rash or burning sensation).

 

Oils may come already diluted, and will say so on the ingredient label, but you can also dilute pure oil yourself.

• Add three drops of an essential oil to a half tablespoon of scentless organic vegetable (such as sunflower or safflower) or to an unscented body lotion.


• People with sensitive skin should do a skin test before topical use.


• How much to dilute the oil depends on the type of oil and your skin’s sensitivity.

• Thyme, for example, is quite irritating to some people, so it should be used more sparingly and with caution, whereas lavender is nonirritating to nearly everyone, says Perez.

Citrus oils may cause sensitivity to sunlight, so avoid skin application if you are going to be in the sun. Because they’re so pretty and fragrant and highly toxic if ingested, they should be kept where children cannot reach them.

Your Partner is Cheating on You?

What Should You Do if Your Partner is Cheating on You?

What should you do if you think, or know, that your partner is cheating on you?

The answer to this question has been asked by both men and women for probably as long as humans have been walking on two legs. Animals seem to not have this worry since a pride of lions has one head male who sleeps with multiple females.

Everything was perfect, we were as happy as can be, then you remembered her and forgot about me.

But how do we deal with the betrayal of our partners cheating on us?

Talk To Your Partner

Maybe the first thing that you should do is talk to your partner. This is not an easy thing to do, but a necessary thing to do. You have to give them the time to tell you what happened and why it happened. Also you have to give them the option of leaving, if that is their choice.

Allow Your Partner to Know

Most of the time, we are more worried about our partners leaving us then we would like to admit. Sometimes we have a tendency to push them away unknowingly. If there is a problem that you do not see, maybe they do. You can be sure that they will probably be as worried as you are. It is important to allow them to know that you want to know.

Always Communicate

All too often, we do not see that we have issues with the way that we communicate with our lovers. These people are one of our most cherished friends that we should not ignore. Remember that these people are not robots, but they do often react to our misguided signals. It is always better to find out the truth from them.

Natural Mood Elevators

Ads for antidepressants make it seem as though the most logical solution for a case of the blues is to seek a prescription. Pharmaceutical drugs may be helpful-even necessary-for people with severe depression, but for others, there are natural solutions that may work even better, with less risk of adverse side effects. Dietary supplements and lifestyle changes can be used to naturally lift your spirits.

 

NATURE CAN HEAL

 ”I think that a lot of our modern-day fatigue and depression has to do with the fact that we’re totally separated from nature,”

suggests Eric Yarnell, ND, president of the Botanical Medicine Academy and coauthor of Clinical Botanical Medicine.

“People don’t eat well, they watch huge amounts of television and don’t spend much time relating to people or the out-doors.”

He believes that eating plenty of whole, unprocessed foods and getting regular exercise are the first steps to take in attempting to boost your mood and energy level.

“I tell people to replacing TV with even 15 minutes of daily outdoor activity and sunlight will help, as it will getting enough sleep.”

According to Jonny Bowden, CNS, author of The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth, many foods that are commonly thought to give us energy actually don’t.

“Foods that are processed and contain lots of sugar or white flour raise blood sugar temporarily, which feels good, but then set us up for a crash of energy and mood,”

He says.

“Foods higher in protein (like grass-fed beef, chicken or fish) and higher in healthy fats (like nuts) will raise and matter of balance.”

Our medical expert, Andrew L. Rubman, ND, points out that an extreme low-carb diet can actually kick off fatigue.

“Often, if people go overboard on an Atkins-Esque high protein regimen, they end up feeling lethargic, which in turn affects mood.”

 

SUPPLEMENTS THAT HELP

Eating whole foods with little or no added sugar, exercising (even a bit) and getting some moderate sun exposure are all highly effective ways to beat the blues and lift the spirits. Some people, however, still feel like there are times when they need a more controllable lift and for them, Dr. Yarnell says there are natural supplements that really do help. Research supports three, in particular-St. John’s wort (Hypercium perforatum), Golden Root (Rhodiola rosea) and eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus).

ST. JOHN’S WORT

ST. JOHN’S WORT natural mood elevators

A meta-analysis published in the British Medical Journal reviewed 23 trials on St. John’s wort involving more than 1,700 patients, with researchers reporting it was more effective than a placebo at treating mild to moderately severe cases of depression.

“The evidence is very strong that St. John’s wort is an effective natural antidepressant for people whose depression is mild,”

Says Mark Blumenthal, founder and executive director of the nonprofit American Botnical Council. This distinction is an important one, he motes-recalling how the reputation of St. John’s wort was sullied by a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association that this particular study had examined a group of patients that included those already unresponsive to treatment with a conventional antidepressants drug, so their depression was quite severe.

Caution:  Those with severe depression should seek medical advice to ensure proper treatment and monitoring.

“St. John’s wort interacts with a whole suite of conventional pharmaceutical drugs,”

cautions Blumenthal,

“so you must check with your health care provider about any possible interactions before taking it.”

Your prescriber will quite likely recommend preparations standardized to contain 0.3% hypercin, a naturally occurring compound in St. John’s wort to which manufacturers standardized their extracts for quality control purposes. And, if you are scheduled to have elective surgery, make sure you discontinue this supplement ahead of time.

RHODIOLA ROSEA/GOLDENROOT

RHODIOLA ROSEA – GOLDENROOT

In Europe, Rbodiola rosea or R. rosea, the best known and most studied of different species of Rhodiola (also called goldenroot), has a long history of being used to treat chronic fatigue, especially in Sweden and Russia. One interesting study tested the effect of 170 mg of R. rosea root extract on 56 physicians who were on stressful night-call duty. R. rosea brought about a statistically significant reduction in general fatigue for the first two weeks-but the positive effect seemed to fade by six weeks, suggesting it might be a good short-term solution that is helpful for acute stressful conditions but not for chronic stress. An experienced naturopath can provide advice on what’s the best dosage in your case.

As for depression, a recent clinical trial found that R. rosea can also work as an antidepressant and mood elevator. In this Swedish study, R. rosea extract was found to not only help reduce symptoms of depression in patients with mild to moderate depression, but also to enhance their cognitive and sexual function, as well as their mental and physical performance under stress.

ELEUTHERO

ELEUTHERO

There is some debate about eleuthero, also known as Siberian ginseng )although it is no longer marketed under that name in the US). Blumenthal is not enthusiastic about eleuthero, calling it “not great” for fatigue, but Dr. Yarnell believes it’s effective, doesn’t have significant adverse effects and works “to balance people’s system.” One clinical study evaluated 96adults who had complained of fatigue for at least six months. They were given four capsules per day of eleuthero. While some reported their fatigue lessened considerably, the results were not statistically significant…though two sub-groups in the population-those with longstanding fatigue and those with less severe fatigue-experienced some effect from the treatment after two months.

ASK YOUR DOCTOR

Naturally supplements aren’t necessarily risk free and so it is vitally important to seek supervision by a physician experience in their use-good advice for addressing moods or physical ailments. You may find these products can be very beneficial and produce less adverse effects than pharmaceutical one…but use them responsibly.

Food Allergies with Seasonal Allergies

 

› Food allergies

Food Allergies

 

Though seasonal allergies and food allergies seem to be distinctly different entities, Dr. Starbuck explains that it is important to realize that they’re not unrelated.

“Seasonal allergies are definitely aggravated by food allergies and sensitivities,”

she says. Allergy sufferers should be aware that problem foods can amplify seasonal allergies so you should try eliminating the usual offenders, at least temporarily.

“Dairy, wheat, corn and soy are all mucus-producing foods,”

she adds. They can make seasonal allergies like hay fever worse-avoiding foods that contain mold (such as blue cheese) since these, too, can trigger allergy symptoms.

› Chamomile tea

This sleepy-time favorite soothes mucus-membrane activity, which will help allergy victims feel more comfortable.

Note:  Chamomile tea can cause allergic reactions in those allergic to ragweed.

Natural Remedies for Food Allergies

› Decongestant snack

Finally, Dr. Starbuck offers her own recipe for a homemade decongestant snack.

• Mix water and organic honey together (in a 50-50 mix), bring it to a simmer.


• Add to this the peels of organic grapefruit, lemons and oranges.


• These, she says, “are absolutely loaded with bioavailable quercetin and other bioflavonoids.”


• Leave to simmer for 20 minutes. Once they’ve cooled, the peels are sweet, soft, for a healthy treat.


• The remaining liquid can be reheated and enjoyed as a beverage.

Stinging nettle

Stinging Nettle

→ Anti Allergy
→ Anti Inflammatory

This flowering plant is gaining popularity in its freeze-dried form as being moderately effective in soothing allergy symptoms. There’s not much research supporting this-a study from the National College of Natural Medicine in Portland indicated it might have a mild helpful effect-but stinging nettle has long history in traditional medicine as treatment for allergies, among other conditions. The fact that it also has an anti-inflammatory effect leads many practitioners to prescribe stinging nettle as part of a total  natural treatment for allergies. It’s most effective if taken at the first sign of symptoms, says Dr. Starbuck, who has used it for years and finds it helps her patients.

Caution:  If you are taking blood thinners like coumadin or if you have diabetes, stinging nettle should be used very carefully. A small percentage of people are allergic, so if stinging nettle makes you feel worse, talk to your doctor. You can be tested for a nettle allergy. Pregnant women should avoid it.

Eyebright (Euphrasia)

→ For Eye Infections

This herb has been used as a compress to treat eye infections and irritation for hundreds of years. Dr. Starbuck points out that it’s also effective when taken orally in a tincture for treatment if inflammation of nasal mucus membranes and sinuses.

Treating Seasonal Allergies Naturally

Treating Seasonal Allergies Naturally

Actifed, Benadry1, Claritin…you could make an alphabet book with the names of allergy medications drugstores sell to soothe seasonal symptoms. But all have side effects that can be as annoying as the sniffles and sneezes they treat. So, why not review some natural therapies for treating allergy symptoms?

Caution: As per regular readers have heard before, using “natural” treatments for anything allergies included doesn’t automatically mean safe and dosages must be adjusted to your individual needs by your own naturopathic physician. For broad advice on this topic we asked Jamison Starbuck, ND. She practices natural and holistic medicine in Missoula, Montana, is a past president of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians, and has lots of helpful suggestions to discuss with your own doctor.

Some Treatments That Help

Dr. Starbuck recommends assorted supplements to quell her patients’ symptoms.

Quercetin

→ Anti-Inflammatory
→ Immunity Booster

Abundant in apples, citrus fruits, raspberries, black and green tea, grapes and red wine, this bioflavonoid has the capacity to strengthen the capillaries in the upper respiratory tract to make them less reactive to the airborne particles, including pollens or spores from grasses, weeds trees and ragweed that trigger many allergic symptoms. Quercetin’s anti-inflammatory capacity is especially helpful because some people prone to allergies simply have highly reactive mucus membranes, meaning they have a low tolerance for irritation. “Quercetin supports the immune system at the same time it helps to decrease inflammation,” explains Dr. Starbuck. “Patients have told me that using quencetin alone has made a huge difference in their symptoms and suffering.”

Note:  This super bioflavonoid is inexpensive and available in capsule form at health food stores. Remember that quercetin may interact with certain drugs. Check with your doctor.

Vitamin C

→ Anti-Inflammatory

The anti-inflammatory and free-radical-quenching capacities of vitamin C decrease the release of histamines, which our bodies generate to manage allergic insults like pollen.

Important:  Dr. Starbuck cautions that at higher dosages of this super-power vitamin, some people may notice a loosening of the bowels-if you’re among them, ask your doctor to cut you back to a lower dose.

Health Tips

Good Health Tips

Health is the most important part of life for which you need to have some good health tips. These tips will help you lead a better healthy life with no worries. Here are some important good health tips.

When fighting a virus, it is good to give your digestive tract a break.

Avoid proteins and fats which are hard to digest, as well as dairy products which create mucus.

Warm up by eating hot foods preferably soups, steamed vegetables and the like and, of course, drink lots of fluids.

Get plenty of sleep and don’t fore go exercise, says Dr. Starbuck, Though a hard workout will only stress your already over-stressed body, do get outside twice day for a 15-minute relaxed walk in sunlight and fresh air.

Good Health Tips

You can protect others from your virus by washing your hands throughout the day and always after you blow your nose.

Don’t go to work when you are feeling sick since you’ll expose your colleagues and prolong your misery.

Dr. Starbuck points out that illness will disappear faster if you take care of yourself. Instead of being sick a week or longer you can feel better in three to five days with rest and proper natural care.

Natural Remedy for Cold and Flu

Natural Remedy for Cold and Flu

 

For a runny nose and cold, Dr. Starbuck prescribes ginger of usnea, herbs that dry out the mucus and provide antiseptic properties. She also directs her patients as follows…

 

 

 

Vaporizing or steam will help thin out mucus and keep it flowing-use a humidifier or simply a bowl or pan of just-boiled water to which you can add one or two drops of eucalyptus or lavender essential oil or several peppermint tea bags. Drape a towel over your head and stand over the water, to breather in its steam, taking care to avoid burning, of course. For patients suffering from a sore throat that feels hot and dry, Dr. Starbuck prescribes slippery elm, licorice or marshmallow root-all moistening herbs. A cool mist humidifier can also help.

Natural Remedy for Cold and Flu

Also: Saline solutions, including nasal sprays, can help break up mucus. For a more exotic approach, Dr. Starbuck often prescribes treatment with the neti pot, used in the practice of ancient ayurvedic medicine. When Mehmet Oz, MD, discussed how to use one on The Oprah Winfrey Sbow last year, these were boosted nearly into the “trendy” category as the must-have saline irrigation system. The neti pot resembles a teapot to be filled with four ounces of saline solution and poured into one nostril, thereby forcing mucus out of the other. Dr. Starbuck often directs her patients to add a quarter teaspoon of combined Echinacea and eyebright tincture to the saline packet mix.

Belladonna - Natural Remedy for Fever

Fever

What is Fever?

An abnormally high body temperature. Usually more than 99.5 °F or  37.5 °C

What is normal body temperature?

36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F) is considered to be the normal body temperature.

What are the symptoms of Fever?

• Headache


• Bodyaches


• Shivering


• Chills and Rigors


• Nausea / Vomiting


• Anorexia (loss of appetite for food)


• Malaise (A general feeling of discomfort, illness, or uneasiness)

MANAGING FEVER

Belladonna – Natural Remedy for Fever

Fever is the body’s natural weapon for killing viruses, so it’s best to let it do its work. However, if a fever becomes too uncomfortable for you or if it is sudden, higher than is typical for you when you get sick or causes bright red cheeks, it may require treatment. Be sure to alert your physician to the fever, as an intense one may require suppression and even hospitalization. Dr. Starbuck says that she often prescribes just one dose of the homeopathic substance Belladonna typically two pellets of 30C strength which frequently takes care of a high fever. However, for fevers that are low grade, persistent and dragging you down, she may prescribe the homeopathic substance Gelsemium sempervirens, also 30C strength, two pellets at one time

Immune Boosting

Echinacea – Immune Boosting

Echinacea is high on Dr. Starbuck’s list for treating viruses. This common immune booster comes in tea, capsules and tincture. Dr. Starbuck recommends the tincture because it is generally more potent and has superior bio-availability.(Test the tincture for freshness by putting a drop on your tongue-it should create a slightly numbing feel. If not, get another bottle. A good choice is Eclectic Institute’s Specific Echinacea.)

Dr. Starbuck most often prescribes Echinacea tincture to be taken by her patients at the first sign of sickness as follows:

• Place about 30 drops into an ounce of water..take every four hours away from meals. It’s a good idea to drink additional water as well.

 

More: Dr. Starbuck often uses Echinacea in combination with other herbs, too. She advises Ligusticum porteri (also named Osha root) to soothe congested tissue and stimulate circulation, again usually prescribing its tincture form. You can find “do it yourself” anti-viral herbal formulas prepared with one or several immune-strengthening herbs in natural stores such as Whole Foods Market. Dr. Starbuck likes the herbal mix Throat Mist for sore throats by Wise Women Herbals (www.wisewomanherbals.com). Take these herbs at the first sign of sickness. The sooner you catch the virus, the easier it is to fight back-as always, under the oversight of a physician trained in natural healing.

VITAMIN POWER    

Vitamin C does more than any other vitamin to boost immune function. Vitamin A is helpful in moistening mucus membranes in the upper respiratory tract.

Vitamins And Supplements

More: Too much vitamin A can be toxic. Dr. Starbuck advises her patients to get betacarotene, the water soluble, precursor molecule of vitamin A, by eating foods that are high in it rather taking vitamin A in supplement form. One way is to drink fresh carrot juice (two ounces, twice a day), or blend it with fresh orange juice for a combined A/C hit. Oranges, tangerines and, in fact, orange-colored produce of any kind (including pumpkin and sweet potatoes) is helpful. You can continue vitamin therapy for two to three weeks.

Natural Virus Killers Ease Flu Suffering

Jamison Starbuck, ND, a naturopathic physician practicing in Missoula, Montana. She is a past president of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians.

Problems associated with the flu vaccine seem to appear annually. Sometimes there’s not much that can be done to prevent getting sick, so the challenge is getting through it with as little misery as possible. For information on how to treat the miserable symptoms produced by viruses so your body can heal faster, we called Jamison Starbuck, ND, a naturopathic physician, practicing in Missoula, Montana.

Viruses are the tiniest life form in existence-smaller, even, than a single cell. However their impact is huge as they are responsible various infectious illnesses or diseases, from the common cold to chicken pox to much deadlier ones including HIV.

Natural medications are great at helping the body gear up to fight viruses, says Dr. Starbuck. They work by revving up the white Blood cells of the immune system to target the bad guys causing the symptoms, boosting antibody production to encourage it to stop replicating. And, like pharmaceuticals, natural medicines can ease symptoms.

Echinacea for Cold

Echinacea for cold Works

Echinacea Treats Cold

A recent analysis of Echinacea studies has concluded that this popular botanical medicine significantly reduces the risk you’ll catch a cold and also can cut a cold’s duration. Yet it wasn’t too long ago that a New England Journal of Medicine study stated just the opposite, calling the effects of Echinacea not clinically significant in fighting colds. So which report should you trust?

According to Craig 1. Coleman, PharmD, assistant professor of pharmacy practice at the University of Connectieut, who helped conduct this latest Echinacea research, there are many possible reasons why one individual study might have found this treatment ineffective. For example, there are different types of Echinacea, different dosages, different frequencies of dosage, etc. In the case of the New England Journal of Medicine study, Dr. Coleman points out that a less effective species of echinacea was used (Echnicea angustifolia rather than Echinacea purpurea), and at a dosage that was only one third of the more than 200 viruses that  cause cold symptoms was tested.

 

THE POTENT PURPLE CONEFLOWER 

To learn the truth about echinacea, Dr. Coleman and his colleagues combined data from 14 previous clinical trials involving nearly 3,000 people. Since many studies include less than 100 participants, he notes that the much larger meta-analysis packs more statistical power and is also likely to uncover effects of a treatment that might not have shown up in smaller studies. For the greatest accuracy, researchers also chose only randomized, placebo-controlled and peer reviewed trials-the ones most likely to yield reliable results.

The results were impressive. Researchers found that:

• 
  Echinacea reduces the chance of catching a cold by approximately 58% when taken prior to or right at the first hint of a cold.


• 
  If you already have a cold,  taking echinacea can shorten the duration of it by almost a day and a half.

 

POWERFUL COLD PREVENTION AND TREATMENT

POWERFUL COLD PREVENTION AND TREATMENT  

“The take-home message from our study is that echinacea does indeed have powerful cold prevention and treatment benefits,” says Dr. Coleman. Yet with more than 800 echinacea products on the market today, he believes more research is needed to determine the best product preparation and proper dosage. Our medical expert, Andrew L. Rubman, ND, says his two favorite echanacea products are by Herb Pharm and Eclectic Institute. For best results, try taking echinacea at the first sign of cold.

Ginkgo as Natural Remedy

Ginkgo as Natural Remedy: Ginkgo is a herb that is found very useful in fighting anxiety and depression.

Ginkgo May Help Alleviate Anxiety 

Ginkgo is a herb. Ginkgo is one of the best-selling supplements in the US right now, thanks to its long history of healing uses. As with many ancient remedies, modern science is now caching up with traditional applications and verifying their efficacy. Current evidence supports the use of ginkgo in the treatment of:

• 
  Dementia disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease,


• 
  Intermittent claudication (painful legs from clogged arteries) and


• 
  Cerebral insufficiency (decreased blood flow to the brain, also from clogged arteries).

 

Recent research demonstrates that ginkgo may also be helpful in relieving anxiety.

Research Confirms GINKGO Helps

Scientists in a German trail looked at 107 people with two kinds of anxiety disorders (generalized anxiety disorder of adjustment disorder with anxious mood, which is the diagnosis for having a hard time dealing with change). Participants were given 480 milligrams (mg) of standardized ginkgo extract…240 mg of standardized ginkgo extract…or a placebo.

Before the trail, all scored about the same on a standard measurement of anxiety (approximately 30 points of the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety). After four weeks, those taking the high dose of ginkgo experience a nearly 50% Drop in anxiety (14.3 points)…the lower dose was associated with a decrease of 12.1 points…and the placebo resulted in a 7.8 point decline.

This is relatively new use for ginkgo and one worthy of consideration, says Mark Stengler, ND, author of Bottom Line/Natural/Healing newsletter and The Natural Physician’s Healing Therapies. He believes ginkgo might be especially helpful for people with mild to moderate anxiety, particularly when it is accompanied by memory problems. The mechanism by which ginkgo relieves anxiety is unknown, but Dr. Stengler speculates that it may work by reducing blood levels of the stress hormone cortisol or by enhancing brain neurotransmitter levels.

Ginkgo – Not For Everyone 

While ginkgo is generally safe and can be extremely beneficial, it is best used under the care of a trained professional.

Possible side effects may include

• Dizziness,


• Digestive upset,


• Headaches,


• Palpitations,


• Diarrhea or


• Skin rash

and these are more likely to be seen in people taking pharmaceutical drugs including cardiac meds, as well as those with chronic health problems such as IBS or allergies. Even more important, there have been reports of spontaneous internal bleeding with ginkgo.

Note: If you suffer from a bleeding disorder or take blood-thinning drugs such as warfarin (Coumadin), aspirin and other NSAIDs, antiplatelet drugs, other prescription drugs or supplements, be sure to consult a qualified health care professional before taking ginkgo. If you’re clear to take ginkgo, the prescription of choice is generally a leaf extract product in tincture or capsule form (such as one manufactured by Herb Pharm or Eclectic Institute’s fresh freeze-dried extract tablets or capsules).

Ginkgo as Natural Remedy

NATURAL SLEEP AIDS

While the anxiety releasing products can help ease tensions during the day, sometimes you need some additional help at night. According to Blumenthal, these sleep inducers may work as well as the popular pharmaceutical drugs, but without their adverse side effects…

• 
  Valerian is a natural sleep aid and daytime sedative, that contrary to the popular myth, is not related to the pharmaceutical drug Valium. Small doses of valerian can be used for calming during the day and higher doses as a sleep  aid about a half hour before bedtime. Valerian can be taken in combination with lemon balm or other mildly sedative herbs (e.g., chamomile, hops, etc), which makes it an even more powerful sleep aid.


• 
  Hopes (Humulus lupulus) can also be helpful. Yes, this is the same ingredient used in making beer-it is a gentle sedative that promotes relaxation and is available in pills, as well as in tincture and bulk flower form in health taken together with valerian.

Precaution, do not take any of these products while pregnant of breastfeeding. While all are available at health food stores and on-line, it is important to take them only under the supervision of a trained practitioner. If anxiety and/or insomnia are more than an occasional problem, you may need to take a broader look at your life some changes-whether it’s delegating responsibilities at home to family members or professionals, or shifting job obligations or saying “no” to some committees. Anxiety is a message that something’s not right. Natural or pharmaceutical, nothing will solve such problems except solving the problem itself.

   

You can’t take care of everyone if you don’t take care of yourself.

Natural Sleep Aids

Natural Remedies for Anxiety and Depression

• What is Anxiety?

Anxiety is  an unpleasant state of mind. It includes nervousness, fear, excessive worrying about non-specific life events.

• What is Depression?

Depression is a common mental disorder, characterized by disturbed sleep or appetite, sadness, loss of pleasure or interest, feelings of guilt or low self-worth, disturbed sleep or appetite, feelings of tiredness and poor concentration.

Natural Anxiety & Depression Soother

Mark Blumenthal, founder and executive director of the American Botanical Council has a number of expert suggestions for natural products that are soothing, relaxing and helpful in overcoming anxiety symptoms. Some have been found to help improve sleep and relieve stress and jitters.

TO HELP YOU RELAX, here is the list of natural remedies for anxiety and depression.

• 
  Theanine is an amino acid found in green tea. A study measured the brain activity of volunteers after a single 200 mg dose of theanine. Researchers  reported that the supplement helped generate alpha brain waves, which are usually considered to be associated with relaxation. The anine (also known as L-theanine) is available in natural food stores.

 

• 
  GABA  (gamma-aminobutyric acid)  is among the most important neurotransmitters in the brain, involved in relaxation and inhibition. In fact many of the pharmaceutical drugs used for treating anxiety, including Valium, act by enhancing the effects of GABA. Some research suggests that as a supplement GABA works better when combined with other ingredients like the anine. If you can find the two together in a supplement, it makes sense to take them that way.

 

• 
   Lemon balm  (a plant, Melissa officinalis, in the mint family) is another mild sedative. A recent study of 24 healthy volunteers published in Phytotherapy Research found that a single dose of 600 mg of a product combining valerian (Valeriana officinalis) and lemon balm reduced reported anxiety.
  

 

• 
  Kava is from a plant called Piper methysticum. Despite controversy associated with its use long-term, kava has long history as an herbal medicine to relieve anxiety, stress and insomnia. A recent review of randomized clinical trials on herbal remedies that relieve anxiety published in Phytomedicine found evidence “beyond reasonable doubt” for kava’s effectiveness in the treatment of anxiety.  “It relaxes skeletal muscles without causing drowsiness, so you can become physically relaxed but remain mentally sharp within 15 minutes of taking a product containing kava,” Blumenthal say. The recommended kava products are 70% standardized extract, sold in 100 mg doses, thus containing 70 mg of kavalactones (it will say so on the label).

Caution: Don’t take kava with alcohol or drugs that have an adverse effect on the liver (e.g. acetaminophen, or Thylenol). Also, kava has been associated with some liver problems. It is not considered safe for breastfeeding women, pregnant women or people with a history of liver disease. Consult your doctor before considering kava for long-term use.  

• 
  Lavender is associated with relaxation, often used as aromatherapy in spas and as an ingredient in supposedly soothing lotions and teas. Just breathing the aroma of natural lavender oil-in a spray or infuser, or as a massage oil-has mild relaxing effect.

Wear Me Out Skylar Grey -  Guitar Chords


Capo on 3rd Fret


Verse 1:


[Am] Smart ass little [Em] girl

[Dm] Always on the [Am] run

[Am] Playing with a [Em] fire

[Dm] And daddy’s [Am] gun

[Am] Falling in [Em] love

[Dm] On stolen [Am] wine

[Am] Where did [Em] we go wrong

My [Dm] foolish [Am] child


Chorus:


She [F] said…

I’m too [C] young to [G] drink

Too [Am] green to [F] think

You [C] say these [G] things

And it [Dm] wears me [F] out

Too [C] young too [G] frail

But [Am] sometimes I [F] feel

Like [C] old blue [G] jeans

‘Cause you [E] wear me [Am] out..[Em] ..[Dm]
You [E] wear me [Am] out..[Em] ..[Dm]



Verse 2:


[Am] Who are you to [Em] judge

Miss [Dm] accidental [Am] wife

[Am] Who was the [Em] genius

That [Dm] brought me to [Am] life


Well you’re [Am] such a [Em] hypocrite

To [Dm] think me so [Am] unwise

I’m [Am] just trying to [Em] see the world

Through [Dm] my own [Am] eyes


 


Chorus:


But you [F] say…

I’m too [C] young to [G] drink

Too [Am] green to [F] think

You [C] say these [G] things

And it [Dm] wears me [F] out

Too [C] young too [G] frail

But [Am] sometimes I [F] feel

Like [C] old blue [G] jeans

‘Cause you [E] wear me [Am] out..[Em] ..[Dm]
You [E] wear me [Am] out..[Em] ..[Dm] ..[Am]

 


Bridge:


Well I’m [F] tattered and [Em] torn

See what you [Dm] do

Just admit it was [Am] all because of you

[F] When I don’t come [Em] home

‘Til the early [Dm] morning..[E] ..[F]

Chorus:


I’m too [C] young to [G] drink

Too [Am] green to [F] think

You [C] say these [G] things

And it [Dm] wears me [F] out

Too [C] young too [G] frail

But [Am] sometimes I [F] feel

Like [C] old blue [G] jeans

‘Cause you [E] wear me [Am] out..[Em] ..[Dm]
You [E] wear me [Am] out..[Em] ..[Dm]
