Healthy Chocolate Is Unsweetened Cocoa

Healthy Chocolate Is Unsweetened Cocoa

# Cocoa is a rich source of the same type of antioxidants found in red wine - polyphenols. Cocoa powder has nearly twice the antioxidants of red wine and up to three times the antioxidants of green tea.

# The flavonoids in cocoa are also good for your heart. They reduce the stickiness of cells that have an important role in blood clotting - platelets.

# In Harvard trials, it was found that flavonoids in cocoa help the body to produce nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is a compound essential for proper heart function.

Who Else Wants Healthy Cholesterol Levels?

Who Else Wants Healthy Cholesterol Levels? - from the Wisdom of Healing blog

Genetics do show that a propensity for cholesterol concerns may indeed run in the family in more recent generations. But the real problem may actually be that poor eating and lifestyle habits tend to run in families. When a person with the genetic propensity for heart disease and cholesterol concerns makes changes to their dietary and lifestyle patterns, their health follows suit.

Success and Wellness e-Books

I've been uploading some ebooks that I've found:

I did some research and found many other great books, also public domain, which talk about The Secret and its philosophies, or are inspired by Wattles’ book. The first one I found was “Think and Grow Rich!” by Napoleon Hill, a contemporary of Wattles.

Organic Food Company goes Public

Stop Brain Fog Foods

Stop Brain Fog Foods

The Number One natural brain-boosting favorite heath food I've used myself and heard about over the years is organic baby spinach. This probably sounds nuts if you've never tried it, but munching a handful or two of raw baby spinach will give you a mental and physical lift like you wouldn't believe.

Fertility treatment raises defect risk

Fertility treatment raises defect risk

Babies conceived through fertility treatments have higher rates of birth defects, but the overall risk is so small that it should not keep couples from having children this way, doctors are reporting.

The news comes from a study of more than 61,000 births in Canada, the largest ever done on this in North America.

Stress busters that really work

Fresh ways to decompress: Stress busters that really work

Instead of stuffing yourself with that loaf of bread, take a hot bath or shower to relax your muscles and mind. Or lie down and breathe quietly. If you do decide to eat, make that decision consciously. Ask yourself: What are the consequences? The benefits? After answering these questions, "eight out of 10 times you'll skip the Oreos," says University of Alabama psychology professor Beverly Thorn, Ph.D.

CDC Finally Admits Autism is a Greater Danger to Your Children

Tracking the incidence of autism among 8-year-olds, the average rate among sites in 14 states alone was about 1 out of every 150 children (those numbers could be worse due to education records not being available in four states). New Jersey leads the pack with an average of more than 10 children out of 1,000 with autism, while Georgia, Utah, Missouri and West Virginia all averaged more than 7.

Sleep pillow plus exercise best for neck pain

Sleep pillow plus exercise best for neck pain :: from CNN

"Our results indicate that subjects with chronic neck pain should be treated by health professionals trained to teach both exercises and the appropriate use of a neck support pillow during sleep; either strategy alone will not give the desired clinical benefit," Dr. Hugh A.

Anaesthetic linked to Alzheimer's

Anaesthetic linked to Alzheimer's

The team from the Massachusetts General Hospital carried out tests on brain cells. They found isoflurane boosts the activity of an enzyme called capase, which plays a major part in causing cells to die - a process called apoptosis - and in the development of amyloid protein. Dr Zhongcong Xie, of the Massachusetts General Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease who led the research, said: "Our studies have shown that isoflurane may induce a vicious cycle of apoptosis, amyloid-beta generation, and further rounds of apoptosis. "If future studies support these findings, they suggest that caution be used in choosing this anaesthetic for elderly patients, who already are at increased risk for Alzheimer's and for postoperative cognitive dysfunction."

Opponents Rally Against Mandatory HPV Vaccine

Opponents Rally Against Texas Forcing Sixth Grade Girls to Receive HPV Vaccine

The good news is that a group of politicians and consumer groups have spoken up against the mandate, calling it a violation of parents' rights with the potential to promote promiscuity. In case you aren't familiar with HPV, it's a sexually transmitted disease that's virtually 100 percent avoidable without a vaccine. Plus, most cases of the infection clear up on their own.

Father, son undertake journey for therapy

Father, son undertake journey for therapy In doing Internet research, David Mobley found stem cell therapy available for Michael in only four countries: China, Costa Rica, Mexico and the Dominican Republic. Of those, he chose China because the $20,000 fee included a six-week hospital stay, which included a mix of eastern and western medicine. David withdrew money from his 401(k), and in late November he and his wife of two years, Dana, flew a commercial airline to China with Michael. They moved Michael - a "152-pound infant" - in and out of airline seats and wheelchairs for the 30-hour trip. Over the six-week stay, doctors injected four doses of umbilical cord stem cells into Michael's spinal cord, with a fifth introduced intravenously.

Exercise To Reduce Your Cancer Risks

Exercise To Reduce Your Cancer Risks Researchers have found that about 30 minutes of exercise three to four times per week may help decrease your risk of several types of cancer, including breast, endometrial, prostate, colorectal and lung cancers. According to the National Cancer Institute, physically active women have a 40 percent reduced risk of developing breast cancer, and physically active men have a 10 to 30 percent reduced risk of developing prostate cancer. "The easiest way to incorporate physical activity into your day is to find an activity that you enjoy doing so that you don't become bored or burned-out," Cook said. People who make exercise part of their everyday routine gain the most health advantages and are most likely to continue. Resonate with Life.

The Safe and Healthy Way to Eat Sushi

Healthy Way to eat Sushi Most restaurants present a major challenge when seeking to order a healthy meal. However, a very high percentage of the food served at most sushi restaurants is relatively healthy. The only problem is that, if you don't frequent sushi restaurants, you might be intimidated with ordering it. Hopefully, this guide will give you some assistance in choosing the best kind of sushi, eating it correctly and the variety of places where you can find it. My only caution is to be very careful with the tuna as you can be assured that it is loaded with mercury.

Bans on UK poultry amid flu cull - CNN.com

Bans on UK poultry amid flu cull - CNN.com

The European Union's top health official said he was optimistic the bloc would be able to control bird flu this year despite outbreaks of the H5N1 strain in Britain and Hungary.

But EU Health and Food Safety Commissioner Markos Kyprianou added: "The virus is still around. We should never feel that we are safe."

The H5N1 virus has spread into the Middle East, Africa and Europe since it reemerged in Asia in 2003 and outbreaks have now been detected in birds in around 50 countries.

It remains largely an animal disease, but can kill people who come into close contact with infected birds. It has killed 165 people over the past four years, a 22-year-old woman in Nigeria being the latest confirmed victim
