CASTOR OIL - Natural Protection from Deadly Viruses

Castor oil is a very unique substance. While most of us are familiar with its use as a remedy for constipation, folk healers in this country and around the world have used castor oil to treat a wide variety of conditions. Its effectiveness is probably due in part to its peculiar chemical composition.

Castor oil is a triglyceride of fatty acids. Almost 90 percent of its fatty acid content consists of ricinoleic acid. To my knowledge, ricinoleic acid is not found in any other substance except castor oil. Such a high concentration of this unusual, unsaturated fatty acid is thought to be responsible for castor oil's remarkable healing abilities.

Heal Eczema by Making Lifestyle Changes

(NaturalNews) Eczema can be a distressing condition which is characterized by inflamed, itchy skin that sometimes develops into open bleeding sores. It can appear at any age and affects approximately two to seven percent of the population. Currently, research indicates that food allergies can be the root cause of eczema. All eczema patients have positive allergy tests. Eczema is a tricky illness with many causes, but with some changes can be reversed.

Two thirds of patients have family history of eczema. Many eczema patients eventually develop hay fever and/or asthma.

Both allergies (IgE mediated which can be tested with your GP) and IgG intolerance's to foods (tests completed by nutritionists) are key to treatment.

For most people eczema symptoms tend to worsen:
* When they are under stress or exhausted
* When eating certain foods
* When drinking much tea and coffee
* Exposure to heat
* Exercising
* Exposure to external irritants such as perfumes, washing powders,
shampoos and paints
* Pet hairs - especially cat hair

However Eczema is most commonly linked to food intolerance's and leaky gut. If the illness starts in early childhood, it is often linked to dairy intolerance, eggs, citrus or wheat.

Leaky Gut

Leaky gut is a condition that comes about when the health of the gut is out of balance. Technically leaky gut is where the junction between the cells of the gut lining develops gaps through which undigested food particles get through and enter the blood stream. These particles should not be there and so are foreign to the body. The immune system starts to react to them, producing all types of inflammatory symptoms including joint pain, fatigue, headaches and asthma.

The gaps between the cells of the gut lining come about due to damage in the gut from toxins, parasites, and overgrowth of bad bacteria in the gut. Over time, a buildup of stress, chemicals, heavy metals, impacted old feces, and a high sugar or poor quality diet can all feed the overgrowth of bad bacteria and reduce the health of the mucosal lining in the gut.

All people have good and bad bacteria in the gut, but a healthy balance is about 80% good and 20% bad. When this gets out of balance, the bad bacteria produce toxins which damage the gut lining, causing the leaky gut.

Foods to avoid:
* Cut out all dairy produce, coffee, tea, chocolate, beef, citrus, eggs, wheat, alcohol, peanuts and tomatoes; this is a long list but is guaranteed to improve your eczema.

* Also avoid decaffeinated coffee products - if you are sensitive to coffee, it is not just the caffeine which is problematic.

* Avoid preservatives, additives, pesticides, food colorings, and refined and processed foods which can cause allergies and intolerance's which all trigger eczema.

Leaky Gut

Leaky gut syndrome is not generally recognized by conventional physicians, but evidence is accumulating that it is a real condition that affects the lining of the intestines. The theory is that leaky gut syndrome (also called increased intestinal permeability), is the result of damage to the intestinal lining, making it less able to protect the internal environment as well as to filter needed nutrients and other biological substances. As a consequence, some bacteria and their toxins, incompletely digested proteins and fats, and waste not normally absorbed may "leak" out of the intestines into the blood stream. This triggers an autoimmune reaction, which can lead to gastrointestinal problems such as:

• Crohn's disease
• food allergies
• chronic intestinal candidosis (candida)
• lupus
• asthma
• eczema
• psoriasis
• headaches / migraines
• arthritis / rheumatoid arthritis
• Raynaud's disease
• acid reflux
• multiple sclerosis 
• Coeliac's disease 
• chronic giardiasis
• auto-immune diseases
• digestive disorders 
• autism 

     As for the cause, it can be too much pills including aspirin, ibuprofen, pain killers, medication, improper diet (i.e. too much sugar which then allows yeast and the bad bacteria to grow more than the good bacteria that lines the intestines), constipation or irregular bowel movements to name a few.

How to fix it, remove the root causes and re-establish internal ecology:

1. anti-fungals, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, antibiotic
2. probiotics (Acidophilus, Bifido bacteria and L. casei)
3. DGL (Deglycyrrhizinised liquorice) 
4. Cabagin (Vitamin U) [sulfur-derived] **Point of Interest**
5. FOS (FructoOligoSaccharides) aka oligofructose / oligofructan  [prebiotic]
6. butyric acid (as serine butyric)
7. NAG ( (N-Acetyl Glucosamine) 
8. zinc ascorbate
9. magnesium ascorbate
10. Vitamin A
11. GLA (Gamma-linolenic acid)

Secrets Every Multivitamin User Should Know

If you're currently taking or considering taking a multivitamin with a recommended serving size of only one pill a day, you're pretty much wasting your time. Why?
It's very doubtful that any single pill can pack enough vitamins and minerals to truly make any real difference in complementing your healthy diet.

Producers of multivitamins have come up with some pretty amazing ways to compress natural nutrients, but not to this extreme… not down to where a single tablet provides you the vitamin and mineral levels you need.

And speaking of minerals, many producers of one-a-days don't even bother including essential minerals like potassium or magnesium, or even calcium in adequate enough amounts to really make a difference.

What about other nutrients from natural sources like vegetables, fruits, and herbs? Shouldn't they be blended into your multi as well? I certainly think so.

But it's also vitally important to know when to take your multivitamin.You should take a few multi tablets first thing in the morning and with lunch, or with an early dinner to help optimize your nutrient absorption, the better chance you'll have of truly fortifying your diet.

Before we jump further into all the natural nutrients I believe should go into a multi, let's first take a closer look at why all multivitamins are not created equal.

Some may in fact, negatively impact your health in such a way they should be flushed down the toilet.

Perhaps the Most Toxic "Health" Drinks of the Century

By Dr. Mercola

By now you have probably seen the ads for MiO Liquid Water Enhancer, Kraft Foods' new gimmick aimed at young consumers seeking "cool" new ways to stand out among their peers. Leave it to the food and beverage industry to find a way to turn your perfectly healthful water into a mixture of toxic chemicals. This latest craze has you squeezing brightly colored flavor drops into your water from a cute little purse-sized bottle, and watching the mesmerizing nebula of color diffuse slowly into the clear water.
Very clever… a science experiment you can drink.

The market has been flooded with "functional waters," fortified (supposedly) with everything from vitamins and minerals to electrolytes, oxygen, fiber, and even protein. Supermarket beverage aisles can entice you along a virtual sea of beverage choices—energy drinks, vitamin waters, fitness waters, and sports/electrolyte concoctions in every imaginable color and flavor.

You can even buy a bottle of water infused with positive affirmations, said to "raise the consciousness of humanity" (Aquamantra). Or how about this one—bottled water fortified for your dog, called FortiFido?

But if you take a closer look at the labels, you'll discover they're spiking your punch with a lot of unsavory ingredients, many capable of wreaking havoc on your metabolism, hormones, and other physiological processes—and some of which are outright carcinogenic.

If you aren't already a label reader, it's time you became one, lest you fall prey to these clever marketing ploys.

Flashy labels, pretty colors, and seductive scents are not always harmless to your health—but they are incredibly alluring, especially to kids. Your child will be drawn in like an Emu to dangly earrings. So what's in this cute little bottle of liquid "water enhancer" with the equally cute name?
