Trans Fat More Dangerous than Cars

In Sweden trans fats are estimated to cause more deaths yearly than traffic accidents.

Still the authorities are not willing to limit trans fats in food.

Compare to this your country may seem great. But things are not allways as they seem.

I just came accross this informative, eye opening article:

Do you get trans fat without knowing it?

The SINGLE most Important Thing for a Healthy Life

“Death begins in the colon.”

This is what the Russian bacteriologist Ilya Mechnikov stated just over a century ago.

He observed men and women in ages above 100. They all had one this in common:

They lived highly active healthy lives!

His research made the direct link between longevity and a healthy balance of good bacteria in the body.

Bacteria that he named:

Probiotics

The optimal balance of intestinal bacteria is 85% good, probiotic bacteria and 15% bad.

Maintaining this balance is the single most important thing we can do to ensure optimum health, longevity and a good immune system.

So a good balance is great is definitely something to aim for. But what if the balance is disrupted?
Are you in the risk zone of imbalance?

Here are a couple of questions that will help you determine if you are:

• Have you taken antibiotics?
• Do you use birth control pills?
• Do you drink water containing fluoride and chlorine?
• Do you use fluoridated toothpaste?
• Do you supplement with man-made vitamins?
• Does the food you eat contain preservatives and additives?
• Have your food been exposed to pesticides and fertilizers?
• Do you drink coffee/tea or carbonated drinks?
• Are you stressed?

When I read this I can’t help thinking “Who is NOT in the risk zone?”.

So maybe it is better to turn it around and look at the warning signs of bacterial imbalance.

• Food and skin allergies, especially in children.
• Bad breath, gum disease and dental problems
• Sugar cravings and difficulty losing weight
• Acne and eczema
• Joint inflammation
• Fatigue and poor concentration
• Frequent constipation, diarrhea acid reflux and other digestion problems
• Frequent colds and flues.
• Asthma
• Sleeping problems
• Yeast infections and candida
• Irritable bowel syndrome or irritable colon

Uptil now most probiotic research has been done on people with healthy problems. But it was recently found that probiotics have an anti-inflammatory potential even in healthy adults.

Probiotics are important for each and every one of us. And especially those of us who suffer from any of the health issues above.

Probiotics are found in:

Fermented foods, such as sauerkraut and many pickles

Special yogurt, such as kefir

In small amounts in foods such as: goat’s milk, honey and artichokes.

In functional foods. There are many functional foods on the market containing probiotics. One problem is that many of them are that they are loaded with sugar.

In super foods. There are great probiotics super foods on the market. Make sure to use one that is of high quality and certified organic.

I know there are discussions and definitions regarding probiotics and prebiotics. But let’s not make it more complicated than necessary. Over 100 years ago Ilya Mechnikov named the friendly bacteria in our intestines probiotics. Let’s stick with that for now.

ADHD caused by Food Allergy?

After only 5 weeks more than half of the children showed improvement in their behavior.
Surprisingly sugar and color dyes had no effect.

This week, Lidy Pelsser from the ADHD Research Centrum in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, stated the controversial news: ADHD could be a caused by a food allergy.

The children had followed an elimination diet for 5 weeks. The tests showed that sugar and color dyes that so often pointed out to aggravate ADHD had no effect on the children’s behavior.

Dr Pelsser states that possible foods that may cause ADHD are:

• Peanuts
• Egg
• Dairy
• Grapes
• Flavor enhancers, like msg
• Tomatoes
• Vanilla
• Fish

I can’t help wondering if probiotics would work as a natural cure for children with ADHD?

Did you know that probiotics have shown to help children with food allergies?

ADHD Natural Remedy Report

Stressfree and Smiling

Something has been bothering me for a couple of days now. Just now I realized what it is:

Stress

We can have tons of things to do, work hard and feel great. Some people call it positive stress; some call it the effect of adrenaline. That is not what I’m talking about.

All of a sudden you’ve crossed the invisible line. You get tried, irritated and feel like you’re not getting enough done. It’s the real, negative stress that has caught up with you.

Stress that makes you tense, tired, nervous and in the long run can cause serious health problems.

We’ve all been there:

• The positive rush is over and you become anxious and afraid that you might not succeed.
• It get difficult to focus and prioritize and you end up working really hard but still lacking the feeling of accomplishment.
• You’re really tired but still might find it hard to fall asleep
• And as your body is screaming for help the quick stimulators start calling: Sugar, Caffeine and Alcohol.

It can be so hard to turn it around. But this time instead to turning to quick stimulators that actually make the body more stressed I will make a conscious choice and break the vicious circle.

What we really need when we are stressed is:

• Foods that give us extra energy. – Super foods filled with antioxidants that will give your body a real energy kick.

• Physical exercise Nothing gives you as much relaxation as really though workout. And it doesn’t have to take up a lot of time either. More and more programs are coming out that show better results in less time .

• Mental relaxation and meditation This will not only help you focus and give you more energy for most people it also reduces the need to sleep.

• Enough sleep Getting enough sleep is vital for your health. It gives your body its necessary rest and your brain a chance to sort things out.

• Last but not least laugh Laughing is a great way to relax. Before you go to bed put a big smile on your face and then do, read or watch something that makes you laugh.

And now watch Ms Rabbles stress management and laugh.
