Published on Leave a comment on Why Chronic Inflammation Can Be Linked To Your Gut – And What To Do About It!

By Laurel Ives – The Telegraph

Our gut microbiome, the bustling community of trillions of microbes living deep within our intestines, does more than just help with digest food, it contributes to so many aspects of our health. In recent years, gut health and inflammation have become such popular buzzwords, yet many still don’t realise just how intricately they are linked:

Why is gut health important?
Inflammation and gut health
Spotting inflammation
Improving your diet for better gut health
Other factors that affect gut health

Our Microbiome Contributes To So Many Aspects Of Our Health

Why is gut health so important?

The gut microbiome is so important, in fact its often called “the second brain.”

Scientists are now realising that when the gut microbiome is out of balance – when the bad bacteria have begun to dominate and kill off the good – it can set off a toxic chain reaction throughout the body. This is chronic inflammation and can be a root cause of many of our most serious illnesses, from cancer to heart disease and diabetes.

So it makes sense that good gut health can translate into improved overall health.…

Published on 1 Comment on Happiness: Is It Luck or Discipline?

Learn how to cultivate happiness through mindful choices and healthy habits.

Robert Puff Ph.D. - Psychology Today

Have you ever looked at someone who seems to radiate joy and wondered, "Are they just lucky?" It's easy to assume that people who seem to have had easier lives—stable families, good education, successful careers—are simply fortunate when it comes to happiness. Conversely, we might believe those who have faced significant challenges are destined to struggle to find joy.

But is happiness just a matter of luck? After a lifetime of exploring this question, I've come to a different conclusion.

Learning from Life's Challenges

Throughout my life, I've sought out individuals who seem genuinely happy, regardless of their external circumstances. These aren't necessarily the wealthiest, most attractive, or most accomplished individuals. They are simply people who seem to be thriving, despite whatever life throws their way. And when I ask them about the turning point in their lives, the moment that led to their current state of well-being, the answer is always the same: challenges.

These individuals have faced difficulties, just like everyone else. But instead of being defeated by them, they learned and grew from their experiences.…

Hi Folks, I came across this phenomena a few years ago but the Video that is in the following Article is really a great piece of work - ingenious actually. And you will see how this effects ALL of Us - from the funny examples to the interesting Facts given by 2 NeuroScientists discussing the Results from a Test, the Guy who made this Video went for. Yes really:)

Distracted walking: A habit that can affect your body and brain!

With the streets swarming with ‘petextrians’, concern over road safety looms ever larger. The programme Talking Point explores what happens when phone users walk distractedly and how Singapore can change this habit.

SINGAPORE: Zombies may be fictional, but distracted walkers are all too real. With necks bent, eyes lowered and ears plugged, they navigate our streets with devices in hand — you’ve either seen them or are them.

As early as 2015, a survey conducted by Nanyang Technological University students found that 93 per cent of 419 youths admitted to “multi-tasking while walking”, which led to 598 reported accidents among them. These included minor falls, collisions with other pedestrians and traffic accidents.…

Published on Leave a comment on 10 Meaningful Habits To Support Your Mental Health – Everyone Needs To Do These

EVERYONE NEEDS TO LOOK AFTER THEIR MENTAL HEALTH IN THIS STRESSFUL AGE. THIS BENEFITS OUR PHYSICAL HEALTH AS WELL. MENTAL HEALTH and PHYSICAL HEALTH ARE MORE CLOSELY RELATED THAN WE REALIZE BECAUSE FOR A VERY LONG TIME EVERYTHING WAS THOUGHT OF (and treated) AS SEPARATE BY THE MEDICAL PROFESSION BUT NOT SO BY NATURAL PRACTITIONERS LIKE NATUROPATHS - THEY SEE THINGS AS INTERRELATED. LETS SEE WHAT THIS WRITER FROM Positive.News HAS TO OFFER US, SHALL WE?

1. Move: it’s a mental health super booster

Your mind as well as your body get a mood-boosting workout from physical activity. It releases feelgood endorphins, reduces stress hormones and aids relaxation. Research shows it can be 1.5 times more effective than counselling and medication at managing depression. Short, high intensity exercise works best, but experts say all forms of physical activity are beneficial – and no one’s suggesting you have to sign up to a marathon unless you want to.

“Create opportunities to move,” suggests psychologist and wellness expert Lee Chambers. “Station things further away, park further away from the entrance and take the stairs. Let the blood flow to your brain.”

2. Sleep: don’t sideline the shut-eye

Just as important as physical activity is getting enough rest.…

Published on Leave a comment on What Happens When Magnesium Is Low In Our Body? Do Read!

From TIMESOFINDIA.COM

The above mentioned Website is Excellent for Health INFO - I come across them many times in Research. I hope you Value and Revere Magnesium when you Read this. "There is a Positive to every Negative" I believe.......you will start to see the Importance of this Vital Nutrient. Many people have far too much Calcium in their Diet that can deplete Magnesium Level and an excess of Calcium left unchecked can misbehave in our body. The need for Calcium is emphasised far too much, and Magnesium far too little. Please read on.

If your diet has less than 300 mg of magnesium, you are likely to experience the following symptoms​

Magnesium is a vital mineral that plays a crucial role in numerous physiological functions within the body. While adult men require 400-420 mg of Magnesium daily, women need 310-320 mg of this essential mineral daily. Women in pregnancy require about 350-360 mg of this mineral daily and 310-320 mg of this during lactation. When magnesium levels are low, a condition known as hypomagnesemia, it can lead to a variety of health issues affecting different systems.

​Muscle cramps, and spasms happen frequently​

One of the primary functions of magnesium is its role in muscle contraction and relaxation.…

Published on Leave a comment on You May Be Inhaling Dangerous Levels Of Chemicals Thanks To Your Shampoo

From Independent

"Best Solution Is To Simply Not Use These Products" Scientists Say

People routinely using hair care products may be inhaling dangerous levels of chemicals potentially harmful to their health, an alarming new study warns.

The new research, published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, found that several Chemicals commonly emitted by hair care products linger in the air much longer after use.

Researchers, including those from Purdue University in the US, say a person can inhale up to 17 mg of potentially harmful chemicals in a single hair care session in their home.

“We found the results to be extremely alarming. We did not expect to see such significant emissions of volatile chemical mixtures from off-the-shelf hair care products during typical hair care routines,” study co-author Nusrat Jung said.

One of the chemicals decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (that's 28 letters) or D5 siloxane – commonly found in many personal care products – “has been found to lead to adverse effects on the respiratory tract, liver and nervous system of laboratory animals,” scientists warn.

“The use of the chemical in wash-off cosmetic products has already been restricted in the European Union because of this,” Dr Jung said

“Many of these products are Scented, too, and some of the Chemicals used to make these Fragrances are potentially dangerous to inhale as well,” she added.…

Published on Leave a comment on Insights On Christianity: The Two Accounts Jesus Would Have You To See

By Janet Vargas - Owner Of This Website

Depends what you mean, a real Christian Walk or a Churchy Christian Walk. Yes there is a marked difference. And sad to say most of what we see around us these days is far removed from what a Christian Walk was all about when it commenced 2,000 years ago, in it's original form. It was real, it was powerful, it was inviting.
So much so, people who witnessed it kept asking to join in (they did not need to be asked) and the numbers grew exponentially. It was unstoppable and something went very wrong 3 centuries later.

In 330AD, a Roman Emperor felt so threatened by this, he sought to make it a State Institution, so he could gain some control over the workings of it - the way they functioned. So Christianity was never meant to be like that, No, many need to get their Facts Straight and See the True Picture, not what they've been told in ignorance. Local Churches was Not the practice of Early Christians, much less Hierarchy. Those practices drastically altered Christianity. It became an Institution like any other Institution, with a history of Powerless Religion (apart from some practices that were restored much later) That's the sad reality of it.…

THIS IS A FABULOUS ARTICLE NOW IN A BOOK AS WELL BECAUSE IT CAPTURED THE HEARTS OF MANY PEOPLE, AND STILL DOES (her article or her book). WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T MISS THIS - IT IMPARTS HOPE, IT INSPIRES MOTIVATION, THERE ARE PRINCIPLES EVERYONE CAN PRACTICE.

Amy, a Social Worker and Psychologist, experienced several family tragedies, including the death of a husband, her mother, and later her next husband’s father. She wrote the mentally strong article just as much for herself as for her readers.

After her article was published on Lifehack, she received a notice that was sent to all contributors — "Do not submit any new articles because the site is receiving much more traffic than normal!" Amy didn’t realize it at the time, but it was her article that triggered the wave of traffic.

Now in a book “13 things mentally strong people don’t do” Amy gives tips, exercises and excellent advice on increasing our mental strength which can change our entire attitude:

  1. They don’t waste time feeling sorry for themselves.

Published on Leave a comment on Why Salt Is Really Bad For You AND Its Really GOOD For You Too – How To Know The Difference!

How is it that we hear so much BAD and GOOD about SALT in our Diet folks? Because we are talking about Two Different Kinds of Salt - completely different - the Unhealthy and the Healthy; the Synthetic and the Natural; the Chemical and Not Chemical. Medicos are absolutely right in telling us to AVOID Common Commercial Table and Cooking Salt but not to Avoid ALL Salt like the plague. Because one is Corrupted and the other is Genuine, provided by NATURE. And hence, it has so many Benefits.

The Hidden Dangers Of Common Commercial Table Salt!

For clarity, we shall look into these things in detail, and you will see what I mean. How good would that be? Because you don't want to be missing out on the many-fold Benefits. TRUE Uncontaminated Salt is VITAL for our Health and our health can actually be compromised without it, whereby we are not functioning at our best. True Knowledge is Power, so let's not throw the baby out with the bath water hey? You will see the distinction between the two. I will address the Bad one first, then the Healthy one.…
