***Dangers of Mercury in your Mouth

Named after the Greek mythological fleet-footed messenger of gods, Mercury is an element of nature, but behaves just the opposite. It is rather slow- a slow poison.

Snoring and Sleep Apnoea are symptoms

Snoring and Sleep Apnoea are symptoms and are warning signs from your body that a number of things have gone wrong in your biochemistry.

When my husband decided to subject himself to 2 operations which didn’t work, I decided to explore what is happening unde eath in the biochemistry.

Most people are brought up with an unhealthy attitude towards sex. The very thought of sex beyond 60 raises eyebrows.

Understanding Your Pain

Let us face it; we all undergo experience that leads us to what we call "pain." We know it as both a physical and a psychological manifestation of wounds and hurts that we either learn to manage or learn to let manage us. Many times, pain in both a physical and a mental sense is a residue of things from our past or things we have left behind. For quite a few people, however, pain is something that they refuse to overcome for many different reasons.

Friendly Bacteria and their Benefits

A human bowel houses more than 400 different kinds of bacteria weighing around 1.5 kilos. Around 30% of the mass of a stool is made up of these bacteria. Most of the bacteria present in the bowel are harmful and disease causing but there are a few bacteria that are beneficial to our body. Those friendly bacteria are known as Probiotics.

Feeling Good – How We Do It

Emotions are very complex experiences connected to our mental, physical, and spiritual makeup. Though we generally consider these properties to be one, they are essentially three different parts of our being and are generally responsible for the day-to-day challenges most of us face. If we take a look at a human brain, we notice the Limbic System, a peculiar group of connected structures encompassing the central core of the brain. The Limbic System is home to types of “primitive behaviors” primarily conce ed with the basic needs for survival but also includes the area of emotions.

***Evolutionary Thought: More Than Four Brains

***Cholesterol Myths - 2

For generations we have been told that cholesterol was bad for us. This concept is based on a theory that came into being in the 1850’s when a researcher called Rudolph Virchow formulated a theory connecting cholesterol to atherosclerosis. From there is has gone from strength to strength, based on a blind acceptance of the fact that cholesterol is bad for us. Most research on the subject is based on the assumption of cholesterol being life threatening; the correctness of the “fact” is rarely questioned. And if the questioning is done, the results are hushed up and buried.
