Cucumbers, Onions, and Tomatoes Marinated in Vinegar
This cool, refreshing and healthy taste treat is a longtime summertime favorite for us. Though this version calls for sweetener, you actually don't need any sugar or sweetener for this recipe to taste great. Consider spicing it up a bit more with a bit of minced garlic and garlic juice (a little goes a long way). And, don't use just any oil - use a healthy one like true extra virgin olive oil (beware of ripoffs!) or hemp oil. http://www.tbyil.com/Cucumbers_Onions_Tomatoes.htm For more delicious and healthy recipes, please visit: http://www.tbyil.com/healthy_recipes.htm |
Use Enzymes for Fibrosis, Scars, Keloids, Lung Disease and Cancer
Use Enzymes for
Fibrosis, Scars, Keloids, Lung Disease and Cancer
by Tony Isaacs
A primary benefit of natural enzymes is
eliminating and preventing scar tissue and fibrosis. Fibrosis itself is scar
tissue. As we age, fibrosis becomes a leading cause of eventual death. Around
our late 20's our bodies being to produce a diminishing output of enzymes and by
the time we reach our 40's we produce very little enzymes. Cystic Fibrosis
patients have virtually no enzyme production to speak of, and even cystic
fibrosis children seldom make it past their 20's before they die of the
restriction and shrinkage in the lungs from the formation of fibrosis or scar
tissue.
As a result of diminishing enzyme production,
our bodies are less and less able to reduce the over abundance of fibrin it
deposits in nearly everything from simple cuts, to the inside of our internal
organs and blood vessels. This inability is particularly noticeable in women,
who frequently develop conditions such as fibrocystic breast disease, uterine
fibroids, adhesions, and endometriosis. Men and women alike grow arterial
sclerotic plaque (which is scar tissue). We are all also prone to have fibrin
begin to spider its way into our internal organs, reducing the organs size and
function over time. As we age, our wounds heal with thicker, less pliable,
weaker and more visible scars. Read

5 Marinades for Grilled Vegetables
Who says non-meat eaters can’t have any fun with a grill? The culture of barbecue may be obsessively meat-centric, but I’ve known many a vegetarian who can perform magic with hot coals, some sauce and a squash. I’ve thrown together plenty of vegetable marinades in my day, here are a few of my favorites. The chemistry is simple – mix the marinade up and let your vegetables marinate in a shallow dish from between 30 minutes to an hour before grilling. For larger quantities, double the ingredients. http://www.tbyil.com/5_Marinades_for_Grilled_Vegetables.htm For more delicious and healthy recipes, please visit: http://www.tbyil.com/healthy_recipes.htm |

(The Best Years in

woman who has undergone the torturous compression and radiation of her breasts
wonders instinctively about the damage mammography is doing to her. But the
instincts of women have long been devalued, and most just assume they are being
silly. After all, the medical establishment would never do anything to harm,
right? All the propaganda about mammograms reducing the risk of death from
breast cancer makes us continue to doubt what our common sense is telling us,
even in the face of overwhelming evidence that radiation causes all types
of cancer including that of the breast. Read

Calcium Alone is not Enough for Healthy Bones
Calcium Alone is not
Enough for Healthy Bones
by Tony
Isaacs
(The Best Years in
Life)
Practically everyone knows that calcium is vital for healthy bones. What many
people are unaware of is that calcium alone is not nearly enough to insure that
bones remain healthy. There are in fact a number of other vital minerals and
nutrients that are essential for maintaining healthy bones, preventing bone loss
and even building bone mass. There are also herbs and other items that can help
build and maintain healthy bones.
Bones are not made from calcium alone. They're an amalgam that includes various minerals such as zinc, boron and copper. Foremost of the additional minerals needed for health bones is magnesium, which is actually considered to by health experts to be more important for bone health than calcium. Read More.

(The Best Years in Life) Hepatitis C is considered an epidemic and is now killing more people than Aids/HIV. . . 30,000 a year and it's going to get much worse. Right now, 5 million Americans are infected with Hepatitis C - and most of them don't know it. That is 1 out of every 50 people.....and some will be people you know. The number of adults seeking liver transplants for hepatitis C infection will skyrocket in the next 20 years. An estimated 10,000 to 30,000 Americans die from this disease or it's complications each year. Deaths are expected to increase because of the increasing risk of infection, and the resulting cirrhosis, portal hypertension, thrombocytopenia, bleeding, and liver cancer. Five years ago, 20% of hepatitis C patients were candidates for liver transplantation and today the number has increased to about 50%. Read More.

Expose Babies to Pets to Avoid Allergies

(The Best Years in Life) If your four-legged companion animal just pooped on your oriental or growled at your neighbor, you might wonder why on earth you ever agreed to feed and house the sorry critter. Take solace in the fact that pets confer health benefits so substantial that from one point of view, it seems obvious that everyone should have at least one dog or cat. According to The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website, pets can reduce blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglycerides.1 A study from the University of Buffalo found that, in fact, stockbrokers who petted their dogs while under duress lowered their blood pressure more effectively than those who took ACE inhibitors.2 A related study by the Delta Society found that being with pets lowered levels of the stress hormone cortisol in less than five minutes.

We've all heard the old adage that we should take breaks and "stop and smell the roses" to relieve stress. Now, scientists in Japan have reported the first scientific evidence that inhaling certain fragrances does indeed alter gene activity and blood chemistry in ways that can reduce stress levels.

Three Ingredient Coconut Flour Cookies
This recipe yields eight two-bite-sized grain-free and sugar-free cookies. The reason for the small batch: Honey is a natural humectant, which means it draws moisture from the air. As a result, these cookies soften the longer they sit. For a tender, melt-in-your mouth texture, enjoy these cookies warm from the oven.
Don’t shy away from the large ratio of coconut flour to butter. Butter is a miraculous superfood, haven’t you heard? Scout out some raw butter from pastured cows for the most health benefits. If you can’t find that, Kerrygold butter comes from pastured cows and is available in large grocery stores.

Try this healthy homemade sports drink to avoid summer dehydration
(The Best Years in Life) For you guys and gals who are out in the heat doing whatever, here is a wonderful sports drink alternative you might want to try which replenishes sodium, potassium, and glucose, as well as fluids for hydration - without the sugar, artificial sweeteners, colors and other less than healthy ingredients found in commercial sports drinks.
The molasses adds potassium and some glucose and other good stuff (make sure to use real molasses and not the syrup sold as molasses in some stores). Of course, the salt adds the sodium. Honey is just good for us, but adds some glucose too, without raising the glycemic index too much. The lemon is mainly for taste, but the vitamin C can't hurt. The apple juice is definitely for taste, so add whatever juice you prefer (grape juice would be wonderful in this). We like the taste of regular tea, and of course the green tea is for the antioxidants. Read More.

Fish oil is loaded with Omega 3 fatty acids that occur naturally in fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, tuna and sardines. Several studies have shown that Omega 3 fatty acids can boost heart health, brain function, attention and mood. Other studies have shown that fish oil can extend the life of cells.

Research: Gulf Shrimp Widely Contaminated With Carcinogens
(The Best Years in Life) Conservative estimates indicate that the 2010 BP oil disaster released over 200 million gallons of oil into the Gulf, followed by at least 1.8 million gallons of dispersants. While the use ofdispersants helped mitigate the public relations disaster by preventing the persistent formation of surface oil, as well as keeping many beaches visibly untouched, they also drove the oil deeper into the water column (and food chain) rendering a 2-dimensional problem (surface oil) into a 3-dimensional one. Additionally, research indicates that dispersants prevent the biodegradation of toxic oil components, as well as increasing dispersant absorption into fish from between 6 to 1100 fold higher levels.

After years of industry delay, formaldehyde and styrene added to carcinogens list
After years of industry delay, formaldehyde and styrene added to carcinogens list
by Tony Isaacs
(The Best Years in Life) After years of delay due to intense pressure from the chemical industry, the government finally added formaldehyde and styrene - two of the worlds mostly widely used chemicals - to its list of known and probable carcinogens this month. Formaldehyde is widely used in plywood, particle board, mortuaries and hair salons. Styrene is found in styrofoam containers and is widely used in boat manufacturing.
Government scientists said that while frequent and intense exposures in manufacturing plants was much more worrisome than the intermittent contact that most consumers have, consumers should nevertheless still avoid contact with formaldehyde and styrene, which were added along with six other chemicals to the government’s official Report on Carcinogens.
The chemical and manufacturing industries have long suspected that the latest report would warn about formaldehyde and styrene and industry groups have fought the process behind its release ever since. As a result of industry pressure, the government added numerous public comment periods to the process. Even after the report was written, officials at the Department of Health and Human Services delayed the report’s release for months in order to cope with industry complaints. Read More.

In a sense, the doctors are right - cardiovascular disease cannot be cured by mainstream medicine. However, cardiovascular disease can be cured and prevented by whole food nutrition, and what doctors know about the links between diet, weight and heart disease is mostly wrong. Read More.
