Dangers Of Pharmaceutical Drug Fosamax
January 17th, 2012
Osteocrenosis of the Jaw and Other Negative Side Effects Of Fosamax: The drug Fosamax, alendronate sodium, is given to people ostensibly to strengthen the bones. It is classed as a 'bisphosphonate' drug, and it was approved as a bone treatment by the American Food Drug Administration Board, in 1995.
Other brand names of the same type-drug, alendronate sodium are: Avedia, Actonel, and Zometa.

Celiac Disease causes problems in the digestion which leads to malabsorption of essential vitamins and minerals.

How Electromagnetic Fields Affect You
Today, I am going to write about electromagnetic fields in the city of Auckland which are currently affecting my health.

Regards, Merrilyn.
This is a good time to put up ...

CALCIUM FLUORIDE
Natural fluoride is found in most fruits, vegetables, milk, eggs and meat. This type of fluoride is known as calcium fluoride. Calcium fluoride helps to build strong bones and teeth and nails.
The recommended daily allowance is somewhere between 1000 mcg and 4000 mcg. or between 1 milligramm and 4 milligrams. Your body weight is the deciding factor. Enough calcium fluoride can be gained from your food to amply make up this amount, if your diet includes plenty of fluoride rich foods such as are included in the list below.
Sodium fluoride is not such a good type of fluoride. This ...
Best Calcium Supplement
June 26th, 2010
Home Made Calcium/Magnesium Tonic is a rich source of natural calcium and magnesium.
Two teaspoons a day of our natural home made calcium supplement will provide you with the equivalent amount of calcioum in a glass of milk, or a handful of sesame seeds.
A handful of sesame seeds has about 1200mg of calcium and magnesium. which is thought to be a reasonable dose for healthy people. If you have celiac disease, then you really need twice this amount.
This is where an extra dose of something like the home made calcium tonic comes in useful, as you can easily obtain ...
