Surviving A Panic Attack – The Odds Are On Your Side

May 15th, 2008 MikePaetzold Posted in Medicines and Remedies | No Comments »

If you’re reading this article it’s safe to assume you or someone you care about has suffered from a panic attack. In fact, if you’re like most victims, you may experience these frightful episodes on a semi-regular or fully regular basis.

The good news is, while panic attacks can be extremely uncomfortable and even terrifying in some cases (hence the name), the victim is almost never in any real physical danger. Fortunately the similarity between panic attacks and heart attacks is limited to sensory experience, so your odds of surviving are excellent!

But it certainly doesn’t feel that way when you’re right in the middle of a full-blown episode.

The American Psychological Association claims the average attack lasts for ten minutes, but hard data reveals incidents that passed within one minute and others that continued for several hours. Anyone who has suffered from a panic attack will agree that, whatever the duration, these events are among the absolute most uncomfortable and disturbing experiences one can have.

But there are a few things you can do to lessen the intensity of an attack, and even to prevent one from occurring in the first place.

The first weapon you have is the knowledge that a panic attack is not a life-threatening occurrence. Simply reminding yourself of this during an episode can decrease your discomfort significantly.

Concentrating on your breathing is a very powerful method for coping with and averting a panic attack. When you begin to experience your first symptoms, become aware of your breath. Without straining get into a rhythm of slow, deep breathing and affirm to yourself the fact that you are slowing your heart rate and managing the flow of adrenaline in your body.

Deep breathing exercises are a great way to dissolve an attack quickly before it reaches it’s peak. Also, the regular practice of breath and meditation exercises is an effective method for completely eliminating the panic attack nightmare from your life.

For some people, it is helpful to close their eyes during the first moment of the panic attack. This will allow you to withdraw from your environment, and can reduce much of the stress of the current situation.

Also, lying down on your back can be a simple way to calm your body. Allow your weight to sink firmly beneath you and feel the floor supporting you completely. For best results combine this with deep breathing and affirmations, and see if closing your eyes helps.

Everyone is different, and what helps one might increase the discomfort of another. But the deep breathing exercise above is a phenomenally effective technique in a majority of cases.

Be sure to discuss deep breathing and meditation practices with your physician. These procedures are rarely harmful but it’s better to play it safe.

Of course the notion that panic attacks are not lethal is a reference to the biochemical process, and does not take into account any environmental concerns of activity risks. These are issues you will need to consider on a case-by-case basis, and you’ll need to apply good common sense.

Obviously you should stop operating power tools, heavy machinery, and if at all possible a motor vehicle in the event of a panic attack. Furthermore, it’s a good idea to remove yourself from any arguments or altercations that might be taking place if at all possible.

Using the simple information in this article, you can reduce the suffering associated with your panic attacks, and perhaps even put an end to these disturbing occurrences completely.

The Body Piercing Phenomenon

May 15th, 2008 MikePaetzold Posted in Medicines and Remedies | No Comments »

Body piercing has been a fast-growing phenomenon in Western, developed nations since the early 90’s. Interestingly enough, this form of “neo-art” has its roots in the ancient traditions of many tribal cultures.

Body piercing has been aggressively marketed as a connection to non-western spiritual and cultural practices, though such a link does not seem to actually exist. Nonetheless, modern primitivism claims that current piercing practices correspond to ancient “rite of passage” ceremonies.

Once thought to be an extreme trend, body piercing has enjoyed massive growth in the past decade. For instance, just about any town in the U.S. with a population of over 20,000 is likely to have one or more piercing studios.

The market for piercing has become competitive and virtually flooded with new service providers. Unfortunately many vendors have not undergone any significant training before opening shop.

In addition to various infections, hepatitis C can result from improper piercing procedure, poor care of pierced area, or the use of non-sterile piercing tools. More than just a “cool new look” any non-traditional piercing of the body should be viewed as an important decision and a major responsibility.

If you are considering your first body piercing, or if you are the parent of a teen who is begging for permission to get a bellybutton ring, you need to be aware of certain serious risks that are involved. Recent medical journals have chronicled literally hundreds of cases where people have been injured, become ill, and even died due to errors and complications with body piercing procedures!

Perhaps a foremost concern is the great responsibility of ongoing care. Unlike the earlobes, which lend themselves to a near painless piercing, resistance to easy infection, and great simplicity in care and cleaning after a procedure, many other areas of the body are less than ideal for housing foreign metal objects.

For instance, the nose, bellybutton, and nipples are particularly sensitive to penetration. Severe swelling is common, and infection will set in quickly if proper cleaning is not performed on a tight schedule.

While body piercing has become immensely popular in the U.S., especially in larger urban areas, the phenomenon has been called “relatively new” in Canada. The Canadian piercing market did not see a major surge until the turn of the century, with estimated retail activity significantly lower than U.S. numbers as late as 2007.

Many enthusiasts claim piercing rose to great popularity in Europe many years prior to the North American mainstream acceptance. However, media interest in the practice and global mass-market appeal were not evident until late in the last century when the piercing craze officially hit the states.

To date, there has been no clear timeline showing when and how this aggressive form of body art made the leap from obscure tribal cultures to the youth of the developed world. But one thing is certain: body piercing is likely to continue the current rise in acceptance and popularity for at least another decade, and could even lead to new developments in off-center fashion and neo-tribal culture.

Body piercing can be a really cool statement but there are risks. Knowledge is power. Discover the secrets to safe, clean body piercings at Body Piercing Risks.

Enzymes - The Miracle Nutrient

May 15th, 2008 BardnurzSham Posted in Medicines and Remedies | No Comments »

They are energized protein molecules and responsible for all biological activities going in our 60 trillion cells and are essential for every chemical reaction which takes place in our body. From digesting the food that we eat and unlocking the nutrient to activating our immune system and producing energy in our body.

Without them, all nutrients including vitamins, minerals and trace minerals cannot be utilized properly. A person who are deficient are prone to a myriad of health problem and accelerated age. Many will suffering chronic ailments, such as arthritis, diabetes, allergies, skin diseases, cancer and immune deficiencies and all this were cause by low enzyme levels.

You can find an enzymes in a raw foods, but they are more heat sensitive than the vitamins, and are destroyed when heated more than 50 degree Celsius or 122 Fahrenheit. All form of cooking such as boiling, steaming and etc, will destroy the enzymes 100 %. In fact, every time you eat them, you will use the enzymes reserve in your body. This will cause a burden to the body, when energy can be conserved for repairing our body.

Each individual is born with an “enzymes bank” or “enzymes potential”, and when started to get low, we will have a health breakdown. Each time you eat you are making the enzymes to run out as digestive enzymes are being used to digest food. While eating enzymes rich raw foods is good, it still doesn’t count as a “deposit” but it will only “offset” with the one used to digest them. We also lose enzymes during sweat and body waste. If you’d like to improve your health or increase your lifespan you should take more enzymes supplements.

There are various types of enzyme- digestive, metabolic and food enzyme. Each of it has a specific function. For example, amylase breaks down carbohydrates, lipase fat and protease protein. Some such like SOD function as a potent antioxidant and involved in energy production. Others enzyme such as bromelain and papain are proteolytic enzyme with anti-inflammatory properties.

Each fruit and vegetables has a unique enzyme. The best form of enzyme supplement should have multitude of source. Digestive enzyme usually contain isolated enzyme such as amylase, protease or lipase. Better get enzymes from whole food source and multiple fruits and vegetables so you can receive a wider spectrum of enzymes.

Fresh raw fruit and vegetables are rich in enzymes but it’s hard to eat enough variety to get a full spectrum of enzymes and nutrient. But nutrient can be preserved through fermentation by using specific healthful microorganisms. It will increase the level of enzyme and produce more nutrients (vitamins, minerals, trace minerals and phytonutrients) and will be more bio-available to the body.

The function of your immune system is to fight off all foreign invaders inside our body such as bacteria, viruses, carcinogens and other chemical. When our body is forced to work overtime to produce digestive enzymes, it will have a dire effect on our immune function.

Your immune system demands a constant supply of enzymes, especially amylase and protease.

Amylase is found in the macrophages, the white blood cell that actively seek out and destroy diseases that causing microorganisms and toxins.

Protease or proteolytic enzymes break down undigested proteins, cellular debris and toxin in the blood. Also help reduce blood levels of immune complexes that could otherwise active the immune system to attack the tissue of our body.

As we know, we all have cancer cell at any given time. But, we have specialized immune cell such as NK cells (natural killer cells) and macrophages ( white blood cell) that will kill and destroy these cancer cell before they can cause any serious damage.

However, scientist have found that some cancer cells hide under a protein covering to avoid detection. NK cells and macrophages unable to kill them , allowing cancer cells to attach themselves to an organ and spread more faster than before.

Enzymes dissolve this protein covering. Once it removed. NK cells and macrophages can effectively kill these cancer cells. It also have been reported that enzymes will increase the action of macrophages by 700% and NK cells by 1,300% in a short period. Enzymes play a good role in prevention of cancer cells.

Today, medical specialist used enzymes for treating arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome and backaches. Many athletes are given daily enzymes to accelerate recovery from surgery, injuries and intense exercise. Enzymes will dissolve fibrin which prevents the scar tissue build up, which can cause restriction in an injured area. Proteolytic enzymes (bromelain type) reduce the body’s production of “negative” prostaglandins (PGE2) that cause pain/inflammation. This enzymes also absorb amino acids to repair afflicted joints.

If you suffer from chronic physical conditions such as tunnel syndrome, tennis elcow, sciatica, strain tendon or old injuries (whiplash, stiff neck or disk problems) enzymes can offer relief. My Advice rather than used painkiller try enzymes to ease your problem.

One common cause of hardening and clogging of blood vessels is the accumulation of protein and cholesterol plaque. This plaque can become dislodge and travel to smaller vessels where it can cause heart attack or stroke.

Lipase is an enzyme that breaks down fat and removes fat from storage. Less lipase means the fat stagnates and accumulates in the arteries and increasing risk of heart diseases and high blood pressure. Lipase can help lower LDL “bad” cholesterol and triglycerides levels. Proteolytic enzymes, on other hand, is a great natural blood thinner.

Cordyceps, Strengthens The Lungs, Restore Health And Promotes Longevity

May 15th, 2008 BardnurzSham Posted in Medicines and Remedies | No Comments »

The benefits of cordyceps were first discovered 1,500 years ago when cowherds up in the Tibetan mountains observed their cattle becoming more energetic and youthful in their eating this tiny grass like mushroom. Since then, cordyceps has been used as one of the most effective tonic for many health problems. It helps to strengthens the body, improve organ functions, boost body resistance and promote longevity. As it contains both yin and yang, cordyceps can be used by anyone safely for over long period of time. It is also often recommended for those who are recovering from illness or a surgery, or after childbirth.

Cordyceps is commonly prescribed for the treatment of asthma, coughs, weak lung, wheezing, and shortness of breath and to reduce phlegm. Cordyceps invigorates the “lung meridian” and hence is useful for the treatment and prevention of respiratory problems. It can be used to strengthen the respiratory tract of those who require extra energy in order to perform physical work (e.g hard labour, sport or exercise).

Practitioners frequently use cordyceps to treat general weakness and debilitation. It generally improves energy, endurance and helps fight fatigue or extreme tiredness and alleviates the negative effects of stress. Indeed, cordyceps is a great tonic for anyone who leads a very busy life and need extra energy as it also improve sleep patterns, aids proper transportation of nutrients in the body, and boost cellular oxygenation. If you have been suffering from frequent tiredness and have been unsuccessful despite trying many remedies, you should consider taking cordyceps.

Cordyceps is considered to be one of the best natural aphrodisiacs or sexual tonics available. Although it is not as quick as deer antler, horny goat weed and sea dragon, cordyceps has a more profound effect in strengthening the sexual function. As a powerful Yang tonics, it fortifies the kidney channel, responsible for sexual energy and desire. Traditionally, cordyceps is used in china as a remedy for sexual dysfunction in males, especially for erectile dysfunction, impotence and infertility. It effectively improves libido, sexual desire and performance, physical endurance and energy. Numerous studies have shown that cordyceps stimulates testosterone release and relaxes the smooth muscle of the corpus cavernosum in the penis, improving blood flow for stronger erections and improved sexual sensations. Studies performed at Beijing medical university reported a 64% success rate among men suffering from impotence.

Cordyceps is a popular traditional anti-ageing tonic for body rejuvenation and to promote longevity. It replenishes Yin and Yang energy, restoring strength after physical or mental exertion, and protects from the age accelerating effects of stress. Studies confirmed that cordyceps increases the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), a powerful antioxidant in the body. As a potent antioxidant itself, cordyceps also helps to quench free radicals that cause premature ageing and other common degenerative diseases.

Cordyceps has been shown to lower the LDL “bad” cholesterol while increasing the HDL “good” cholesterol level. It also helps to prevent the oxidation of LDL “bad” cholesterol and “thins” the blood to prevent plaque or clot formation that may block the blood vessels. This helps to reduce the risk of fatal heart attack or stroke. Studies and clinical trials have also shown that patients with various forms of heart diseases have made remarkable recovery and improvement when given cordyceps in addition to their prescribed drugs.

The kidneys are known as “the root of life” and cordyceps has primarily been used to remedy kidneys conditions. Modern research have also confirmed that cordyceps can indeed protect the kidney and improve its functions. Cordyceps have even been found to be useful for kidney transplant patients. However, the use of cordyceps for kidney problems should be well monitored by qualified mediacal personnel.

Traditionally, cordyceps has been used to strengthen the body’s defences against infections, and recent clinical studies confirmed it is a potent immune booster. It stimulates the production of immune cells such as the macrophages, lymphocytes, T helper cells and interleukin in the body. Cordyceps is also an exceptional immune regulator, where it increases the activities of “underactive” immune cells while suppressing the “overactive” ones.

Studies on cordyceps, inhibiting efffects on cancer cells have been done since 1970s in China. These studies indicated that cordyceps helps reduce tumor size, improves cancer patients tolerance to chemotherapy and radiation, and reduce the toxic effects of these treatments on the bone marrow. Further studies also showed that cordyceps contained anti tumour properties and activates natural killer.

How To Cloth Diaper Your Baby At Night

May 14th, 2008 AutumnBeck Posted in Parenting | No Comments »

Talk to any cloth diapering mom and they all agree that the biggest obstacle is how to cloth diaper at night and not wake up in a puddle of pee. Yes, it’s going to take some trial and error. But it doesn’t mean you have to resort to using disposable diapers.

Disposable diapers leak, bulge, excrete crystals, transfer dioxins and don’t allow the skin to breathe. They are not the “easy answer”. When you chose to cloth diaper you had a reason that overcame the convenience of any throw away comsumer product. Whether it is financial, environmental or health reasons that brought you to use cloth diapers, they are all still valid when the sun goes down.

That being said, cloth diapering at night is all the more satisfying when you find the solution that works for your baby. Aside from the type of diaper that you gently place on your baby before they drift off to sleep there are another tip that is helpful. Limiting or eliminating the fluids at bedtime and the middle of the night reduces the amount of outflow during the night. However, even if your baby is a constant nighttime feeder, you can STILL cloth diaper at night.

There is not one nighttime system that works for all babies but there are a few shining stars.

Prefolds as pocket stuffers: Prefolds are highly absorbent and are perfect for trifolding and inserting into a pocket. A prefold can be wrapped around a doubler, like the Joeybunz hemp insert or Happy Heinys Stuffin Insert, or two prefolds can be wrapped together. You can use any pocket diaper, however many moms have had great success with Fuzzi Bunz and Bum Genius diapers at night. There are a couple of top performing one-size diapers on the market as well that have caught the eye of quite a few cloth diapering families.

Fitted Diapers: Baby Beehind (BBH), Very Baby Simply Nights (VBSN), and Bamboo Velour Goodmama top the list of most highly recommended fitteds for use at night. Fitted Diapers are a great nighttime option because of their absorbent materials, the ability to add doublers, and their breathability. Successful nighttime fitteds usually contain hemp and/or velour for their ability to soak up large amounts of liquid. These fitteds allow you to lay a doubler under the snap insert and still have the soft material touching your baby’s skin. Where as pocket diapers contain a water-proof layer of PUL (polyurethane laminate), fitted diapers do not have this and require a cover. The lack of PUL is what allows a fitted diaper to “breathe”. To breathe means air is allowed to circulate to baby’s skin. A fitted diaper, though, is only as good as the cover you choose…

Wool: The brightest star in the sky when it comes to having dry sheets is WOOL. Wool is very breathable, comfortable, and can absorb 30x it’s weight in moisture before feeling damp to the touch. Wool keeps you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. I live in the hot state of Texas and wool worked wonderfully last summer. Wool is also anti-bacterial because of the properties of lanolin. Lanolin contains acidic fatty acids that react with the basic urea to create salt and water. Urea is a component of urine that would normally cause odors. Wool will need to be washed and re-lanolized every couple of weeks. It is a great idea to put a wool soaker or wool longies over any nighttime system you choose for that extra protection. You can choice hand knit wool, crocheted wool, recycled wool sweaters, or interlock wool for your nighttime safety net.

Getting enough sleep at night is enough to worry about. Don’t add to it by also worrying about wet sheets. You may have to experiment with a couple of different diapers before you find what works for your baby, but it will be well worth the effort!

May 14th, 2008 Yama Posted in Medicines and Remedies | No Comments »

Acupuncture and children’s nighttime cough are not often heard in the same conversation. Americans are just beginning to realize the benefits of treating children’s health with acupuncture. Typically children are afraid of needles.

Recent studies show children can overcome the fear of needles. They can gain benefits for the treatment of certain conditions from the application of acupuncture. Acupuncture is an old procedure that was commonly used over 3,000 years ago in China. This treatment is low cost and effective by working together with the natural healing ability of the body.

There are different types of acupuncture, not just needles. Massage of the meridian points is one form as well as Shonishin, which is the Japanese technique of using tools like delicate rollers, hammers and scrapers. Cupping is when glass or plastic cups create a vacuum on the skin to detoxify and relieve the area. Another technique is the Gua sha where scraping with a lid and organic balm to also detoxify the area. These last two are normally done on the back and are effective for upper respiratory problems.

If acupuncture is the type done with needles, the needles used are always disposable and make of stainless steel of a small gauge. Many chronic conditions including allergies, asthma headaches and bronchitis have responded favorably to acupuncture. To do acupuncture at body’s Qi (Chi) point, it help to restore emotional, spiritual and physical balance. It is not causing the pain and needle insertion can make the different sensations like excitement or feeling like pressure, the feeling can be comfortable and relaxing. Another interesting point is the point on top of the foot. It located between the first and second toes is the liver meridian point. If there is the acupuncture treatment at this point it will help balances out emotions and can reduce headaches and stress.

There is other trend that is using acupuncture to cure the deafness. It is increasingly at the present time because there are some success results but commonly it is still being debated. Acupuncture can help a person’s ability to be better observing the different between sounds or speeches. It allows person to have more clearness with the use of a hearing aid. Hearing aids does not make more distinguished but it makes sounds louder. To cure deafness, the Liver and Kidney points are the point of acupuncture treatment.

The acupuncturist first looks for external causes. Eastern medicine focuses on external or emotional factors such as wind, cold, dry, heat, summer heat and dampness factors or emotional causes such as stress from school or peers and family life. In one recent study, when using acupuncture to treat children’s night time cough and other chronic conditions, 70% of patients felt significantly less pain.

Ideal Age To Take Your Dog To Obedience Classes

May 14th, 2008 AmyNutt Posted in Pets | No Comments »

Dog owners will want to be proud of the dogs they own. Not only will they want to feed the best food to their dogs and give them the best health care, dog owners will also want their dogs to be obedient. And to instill this obedience in dogs, it is necessary to give them some obedience training through obedience classes.

The importance of obedience training

Obedience is a must for all dogs. With obedience training, you can expect to find a solution to the discipline problems that you encounter with your dog. In order to avoid domestic problems, which are common when a dog is introduced to a new household, you have to send your dog to training classes to ensure that your home is safe for your family members, especially your children and other pets.

In addition to providing a safe environment, obedience training also establishes a line of communication between the dog and you. And it is with this communication that it is possible for you to instruct the dog to do what you want it to do. Once the dog learns to communicate with you, you will be able to teach it to obey your commands.

There is no age requirement to enroll your dog for obedience classes. A puppy can learn to do tricks and follow commands when it is as young as 8 weeks of age. It is better to take the dog to obedience classes at around 4 months old, right after it has completed all its vaccinations. Usually, basic training courses accept puppies between 3-6 months of age.

Basically, it is easier to train dogs that have a basic understanding of basic commands like “sit” or “stay”. Training an older dog can be more challenging because it has already developed some habits that may be undesirable to you.

It is not the dog but the owner that the dog trainer trains

Many kennels, pet stores and independent trainers conduct training courses for dogs. When you take your dog to an obedience class, you may be surprised that it is not the dog that the professional dog trainer trains. Instead, you are the one who will be taught how to train the dog.

However, you can also send your dog away to a training school to be taught obedience, but you will have to know what the dog has been taught, and how to use and reinforce the techniques that have been taught to the dog. With owners and dogs attending classes together, they learn more about each other, and how to work together under the supervision of the trainer.

It is easier to train a dog if you are aware of the commands and methods that are taught to the dog. Moreover, by attending obedience classes, you and your dog can meet other dogs and people, and learn more things from them.

Obedience training requires consistency, patience and understanding

Your dog will respond better if you are consistent in the way you handle it. With clear cut instructions, the dog learns everything it has to do, where it has to do it and what not to do. Understanding your dog’s needs is a difficult part of obedience training for you. However, as you spend more time with your dog, you will know how to read its movements and expressions, and find the right way to teach it.

Although dogs are expressive by nature, they cannot tolerate discernible messages from inexperienced owners. It is through biting, whining and being fidgety that puppies learn to communicate with you. And it is with the right response you give the dog that you will have an obedient and healthy puppy that will grow up to be a great companion for many years to come.
