Researchers studied data on antioxidants between the years 1994 and 2002 and discovered that on the whole, antioxidants didn't play a role in reducing or acting as a preventative for cardiovascular disease. �Some of the natural sources of antioxidants recommended by the American Heart Association include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish, legumes, poultry and lean meats. Experts stated that along with following a diet rich with antioxidants that it is important to exercise and maintain a healthy weight in order to control the risk factors of developing cardiovascular disease.� (For the complete news article, click here) http://www.mercola.com/2004/aug/18/natural_antioxidants.htm ***NATURAL HEALTH PRODUCTS AND SERVICES*** ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- * F.R.E.E.

Preventing and Healing Periodontal Disease For most of our lives, we have been told to brush and floss our teeth daily to prevent cavities and gum disease. But another useful preventive measure can be the addition of digestive enzymes both as a supplement and as a topical treatment. Periodontal diseases result from microbial colonization and growth on tooth surfaces and their supportive tissues. The food debris trapped between the teeth and in other areas causes the oral flora to grow faster and produce more organic acids that cause tooth decay and injury to the gums. Oral supplemental enzymes help control those conditions by hydrolyzing (breaking down) food debris in the mouth, thereby removing the nutrients that serve to support the "bad" bacteria. Another way the enzymes help is by preventing the bacteria from attaching themselves to the tooth surfaces. When bacteria are not attached to teeth, they are easily washed away by the saliva, thereby unable to destroy the teeth, the gum line, or other structures.� (To read the complete article entitled: Preventing Periodontal Disease: Brushing, Flossing, and Enzymes - by Lisa Helffrich, R.D. and Amanda Swann, go to) http://www.naturalhealthweb.com/articles/helffrich_swann1.html SLEEP � MIDDLE NIGHT STRESS �What do you do when you wake up in the middle of the night and cannot go back to sleep? Do you lie there tossing, stretch, panic, and feel your heart thumping? Do you notice your own shallow breathing? Do you try futilely to follow the random speeding thoughts that race through your mind?� (To read the complete article entitled: Beating Middle of the Night Stress - By Kate Hufstetler, go to) http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/Hufstetler1.html ---------- *** BOOK REVIEW: Heal Your Headache: The 1-2-3 Program for Taking Charge of Your Pain -by David Buchholz, Stephen G., MD Reich ---------- Based on the breakthrough understanding that virtually all headaches are forms of migraine--because migraine is not a specific type of headache, but the built-in mechanism that causes headaches of all kinds, along with neck stiffness, sinus congestion, dizziness, and other problems--Dr. Buchholz's HEAL YOUR HEADACHE puts headache sufferers back in control of their lives with a simple, transforming program: Step 1: Avoid the "Quick Fix." Too often painkillers only make matters worse because of the crippling complication known as rebound. Step 2: Reduce Your Triggers. The crux of the program: a migraine diet that eliminates the foods that push headache sufferers over the top. Step 3: Raise Your Threshold. When diet and other lifestyle changes aren't enough, preventive medication can help stay the course. That's it: in three steps turn your headache problems around.
