I also recommend that you first view my postings on Vitamin D and the Omega 3 oils. Just go to the search engine on the top left hand corner of this blog, and type in Vitamin D part 1 and then part 2 and 3. These three posts show the overwhelming evidence of just how important Vitamin D3 is to your health. Start taking Vitamin D3 now! Do the same for the Omega-3 oils. I also added Resveratrol to this list. You can get Resveratrol supplements at health food stores.

Routine Periodic Fasting Is Good for Your Health, and Your Heart “Research cardiologists at the Intermountain Medical Center Heart Institute are reporting that fasting not only lowers one’s risk of coronary artery disease and diabetes, but also causes significant changes in a person’s blood cholesterol levels. Both diabetes and elevated cholesterol are known risk factors for coronary heart disease.”

Vitamin D Can Radically Reduce Damage from Radioactivity “A paper on the subject argued that vitamin D should be considered among the prime nonpharmacological agents that offer protection against low radiation damage and radiation-induced cancer — or even the primary agent.”

“It’s unclear how much vitamin D is necessary to protect against radiation-induced cancer, but researchers have found that daily intakes of vitamin D by adults in the range of 4,000-8,000 IU are needed to maintain blood levels of vitamin D metabolites in the range needed to reduce the risk of breast and colon cancers by about half. Earlier studies have shown that optimizing your vitamin D levels could help you to prevent at least 16 different types of cancer including pancreatic, lung, ovarian, prostate, and skin cancers, so it’s not a stretch to add radiation-induced cancer to that list.

It has been my experience that many are still nervous about taking doses larger than 1,000 to 2,000 units per day. This is unfortunate as most adults without sun or safe tanning bed exposure will need 6,000-8,000 units of vitamin D per day to attain healthy vitamin D levels.”

More Evidence Vitamin D Boosts Immune Response The benefits of this Vitamin just never stop. It truly is the key to health.

Vitamin D Levels Lower in African-Americans  

Omega-3 fats hold the key to curing depression in the elderly This is not the first time I reported on this. The Omega-3 fats are extremely important for mental health and protecting the brain from diseases. I buy eggs that are loaded with the Omega-3s. I pay more for them, but it is well worth it for the health benefit.

Resveratrol Studies Confirms Potential Health Boost This has been proven many times before. I suggest that everyone use Resveratrol supplements.

Liquid Medicine: The call to add Lithium to the drinking water for mental health! If there ever was a motivator to obtain a good water filter this is it. Make sure that you use a water purifier that filters out chemicals. It is very important that you get the chemicals out of your drinking water. 

Waist Size Predicts Heart Disease Death Better than Your Weight 

Medicare Claims Show Overuse for CT Scanning If your doctor wants you to take a CT scan make sure it is absolutely needed as they give off intense radiation.  

The Watermelon You Should Never, Ever Eat I love watermelons so this is good advice for me. I have eaten the tasteless type described in the article and throw it away. Now I know why it was tasteless!

“One of the tell-tale signs of a fruit or vegetable that hasn’t been grown by entirely natural means is their inherent lack of flavor. It may look plump and ripe, but once you bite into it, it’s anything but a flavor sensation. This is because while growth enhancers like forchlorfenuron stimulate cell division, making the fruit grow faster, it also drains it of flavor. This is actually rather logical, if you think about it. Flavor is a sign of ripeness, which only comes with time. Many unripe fruits and vegetables are virtually tasteless. In the case of watermelons, those treated with forchlorfenuron are very large and brightly colored on the outside, but the color of the flesh is more white than deep red. Other telltale signs are white instead of black seeds and fibrous, and/or misshapen fruit. (Note, this is for regular watermelons, which have black seeds. Seedless watermelons typically have tiny white seeds.)” 

Soda with Aspartame Radically Increases Your Risk of Cancer   Stay as far away from soda as you can and keep it away from your children.

These Cell Phones Can Emit 28 Times More Radiation I have posted many articles about cellphones and radiation. I think cellphone use can affect your thinking process. Take precautions to protect yourself from exposure to cellphone radiation. I radically changed how I use the cellphone.

Protect your children from plastics I found this loaded with good advice about how to protect youngsters from chemicals. Stay away from the store bought baby food and crush real fruits and vegetables for them to eat.
