My health and your health

I am really worried about my health at the moment. You can call me a hypercondric if you want, but it is true. I think it is a good job I had the flu jab as I think it could of been worse. It is a chest infection that started before Christmas. It keeps coming back. I am sure the vitamins and natural products that I have been  Taking will help such as 1-4 grams of vitamin c per day. A powerful garlic supplement, and a Probiotic Acidophilus supplement with 1 billion active cultures in each chewable tablet.


    Function

  1. Acidophilus lactobacillus is a live microorganism found in the intestinal tract and vagina---it aids in preventing harmful organisms from building up in the body. According to the Connecticut Center for Health (CCH), acidophilus can be destroyed by antibiotics and replaced by supplements.
  2. Benefits

  3. Acidophilus improves digestion, treats most intestinal problems and helps reduce the risk of colon cancer, reports the CCH. Acidophilus reduces the level of bad bacteria in the GI tract, normalizes cholesterol and aids in the digestion of lactose.
  4. Effects

  5. According to the CCH, acidophilus restores the balance of microflora in the vagina. It treats and prevents bacterial vaginosis, yeast infections and urinary tract infections.
  6. Supplements

  7. Acidophilus is often found in supplemental drinks and pills; however, finding a quality product may prove difficult. Ask your doctor to recommend a high-quality acidophilus supplement.

One of the top home natural healer's


One of my favorite natural remedies that is a great benefit to my health, and is used widely in alternative health is the fatty acid Omega-3.

You may think that fat is bad for you but Omega-3 mainly found in salmon, mackerel, and fresh tuna plays a key role in many vital body processes.

I have used Omega-3, in supplement form, for many years in the hope it will lower cholesterol levels, and lower blood pressure
. I am sure it has helped my health to some degree. The recommended dose of fish oil supplements is usually 3,000-5,000mg per day.

In natural therapy, Omega-3 is used for the following conditions:
Arthritis, Asthma, Bursitis and tendinitis, Depression, Dry skin, Eczema, Gout, High blood pressure, High cholesterol. Hives, Inflammatory bowel disease, Memory problems, Menstrual problems, Nail problems, Palpitations, Prostate problems, Psoriasis and Wrinkles. There is also some evidence that cancer may also be helped with Omega-3.

Can essential oils help my health?


There are many natural ways that my health could benefit from conditions such as high blood pressure, raised cholesterol levels and anxiety. One such way is with the use of essential oils. Aromatherapy is an ancient art which uses aromatic plant essences to create the essential oils that have many natural health benefits.


Aromatic herbs have been used for thousands of years for the healing and treatment of various illness and disease. More recently, with the resurgence of interest in natural health and complementary medicines, aromatherapy has become increasingly popular.

For example, essential oils that can be beneficial in massage for people suffering from high blood pressure could be clary sage, lavender, marjoram, mellisa and ylang ylang.

Raised cholesterol levels may be helped by using cinnamon essential oil.

Anxiety can be helped by blending bergamot, cedarwood, chamomile, frankincense, geranium, mandarin, marjaram, sandalwood and ylang ylang.

Why I take a high dose vitamin B


Following on from my last post about Niacin (vitamin B3 ), and how it helped lower my blood cholesterol and thus helping to improve my health the natural way without the aid of drugs and all its side effects.

I would now use Niacin 100mg all of the time, however I was not able to buy Niacin on its own this time, so I decided to take a good mega dose of vitamin B complex, this is a great natural supplement and has many health benefits and includes Niacin 100mg.

Each tablet, which is time released contains 100mg of Thiamine (vitamin B1). Thiamine promotes a feeling of optimism, helps overcome stress, depression, anxiety and poor memory. It stabilizes appetite and maintains normal heart function. Doctors will sometimes give Thiamine to alcoholics as all Thiamine is flushed out of the body.

Riboflavin (vitamin B2) 100mg is also in the complex, it is vital for metabolism and energy production.

Niacin (vitamin B3) we have already talked about, and apart from helping lower cholesterol it improves blood circulation preventing blood clots and heart attacks.

Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) helps to maintain healthy blood sugar levels and increase energy, particularly in stressful situations.

Vitamin B6 100mg has many uses, it promotes muscle energy by releasing stored sugar from the liver, it controls obesity, lowers cholesterol and prevents atherosclerosis. It also also inhibits the release of histamine and is therefore beneficial to asthmatics, maintains a correct acid-alkaline ratio and assists the function of nerves. In pregnancy it prevents morning sickness. In higher doses of 200mg per day it can be useful in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome and epileptic seizures. Women taking the pill should also consider taking vitamin B6.

Vitamin B12 100mg can be used to treat pernicious anaemia, fatigue, depression, Alzheimer's disease, asthma, multiple sclerosis, hearing loss and AIDS.

Folic acid (see earlier post).

Biotin is useful in the treatment of hair loss, greying, and scalp conditions
, it can also alleviate eczema and dermatitis.

Choline is vital for learning and memory, it reduces cholesterol, and maintains a healthy liver, kidneys and nerves.

Inositol produces a calming effect on the body. It also can lower cholesterol, maintains a healthy skin, and lower high oestrogen levels that can lead to breast lumps
.

So vitamin B complex, for me is a complete protection for my health

The effects of Niacin on blood cholesterol


I had taken a cholesterol test and was requested by my doctor to see him as it was a little high at 6.5. This would need to be reduced by correct diet, however I wanted to use other natural ways of reducing my bad cholesterol, and naturally being concerned about my health I researched further into natural therapy.

I found that Niacin (Vitamin B3) taken in larger doses would bring down bad cholesterol and bring up good cholesterol. I found Niacin 100mg was available at my local health food shop, this was 556x the recommended daily dose, but would seem to be safe to take one tablet per day.

My research found that 1-2 grams per day was necessary to reduce bad cholesterol, but I was worried about taking this large amount even though there seemed to be no side effects in taking large doses of Niacin.

I decided to double my dose increasing to 200mg per day. I found, at first that I started to flush about half an hour after taking the second tablet, a burning feeling around my neck and face, however this seemed to be a natural reaction to the Niacin. I continued taking the double dose of Niacin for about three months, and then took another cholesterol test. To my amazement my reading was now down to 5.3, which was much more acceptable. I had not followed any particular diet although perhaps I had tried to avoid fatty food.

So looking at the whole picture it would seem that even lower doses of Niacin, ie 200mg per day may play a part in lowering bad cholesterol.
