Vitamins for Celiacs
August 7th, 2010
Celiac Disease causes problems in the digestion which leads to malabsorption of essential vitamins and minerals. Celiacs usually suffer from a condition of inflammation in the bowel, which causes nutritional deficiencies, and this condition leads to celiacs being malnourished: Weight loss, anaemia, and depression are just some of the symptoms which may accompany the celiac disease.
Cancer and Osteoporoosies and Osteomalacia are conditions which celiac sufferers are inclined to get, because their bodies do not assimilate calcium and other vitamins and minerals as well as other healthy people do. It was found in recent research conducted with celiac patients, that ...
Ayurvedic Treatment for Hair Loss
July 21st, 2010
Professional Ayurvedic Treatment for Hair Loss is recommended if you have an ongoing problem with hair falling out. However, there are several good ayurvedic treatments for hair loss which you can use as a preventative, and to help nourish your whole physical being, including your hair, bones, teeth and nails.
Hair loss, in Ayurvedic Medicine, is regarded as a Pitta condition. This means that more cooling foods should be eaten, and that heating foods should be restricted.
The Pitta idea is interesting, I think, because, in my experience, radiation from electromagnetic sources such as cell phone towers and the like, have caused hair ...

This is where an extra dose of something like the home made calcium tonic comes in useful, as you can easily obtain ...
Calcium and Colon Cancer
April 21st, 2010
The relationship between Calcium and Colon Cancer has been proven.
People who have an abundant intake of calcium-rich foods in their diets tend to have less colon cancer than those whose intake is less than 800 milligrams per day.
The RDA, or recommended daily allowance of calcium is 800 mg daily, but this amount seems conservative in the light of studies which show that a higher intake of calcium than this does protect against many diseases. It is recommended that you try to have more than 1000 mg daily, half of which should come from your high fiber greens, to help prevent ...
