As usual, I am sharing some great information on how to prevent and sometimes even reverse major health issues. Almost every week I share information on D3 and Omega 3's, as well as many phytonutrients. It may seem repetitive but that's because I am trying to get your attention with the little time many of you have to follow this stuff. It's not easy.
Scan the studies and articles quickly and just look for anything that captures your attention. Then click the link and read more. Or perhaps I have highlighted something that might be helpful for someone you know or love, then pass it along to them. That's why I blog... To bring you information that will not filter down to a medical approach for years to come, and perhaps never, in the case of nutraceuticals.
There is no purpose in my mind to do all this if I don't lead you to practical application of this information in your daily life.
The reason I recommend the multi CardioLift so much is that it has therapeutic amounts of the nutrients like the ones mentioned this week. I almost never do a program for a client that doesn't include Omega 3 Fatty Acids as well. Just these 2 products can greatly benefit everyone who doesn't already take them. Probiotics are mentioned this week, as well as their importance in overall health and their ability to strengthen your immune system.
Also, if you are worried about cholesterol why not try AFA, a unigue blue-green algae that grows in Klamath Lake here in Oregon? It has side benefits instead of possible side effects.
Enjoy this weeks picks... and remember...
It's never too late to become younger.

Probiotics are Essential in Preventing Disease and Maintaining Health...
(NaturalNews) The August, 2009 issue of the journal Pediatrics contains a study analyzing and confirming the positive effects of probiotics in maintaining immunity and preventing disease, particularly in children who experienced a significant decrease in cold and influenza incidences following sustained probiotic supplementation. The study also confirmed that probiotic supplementation decreased the length and severity of illness symptoms in those that did get sick, vindicating what has been known in the natural health community for years concerning probiotics.
Coronary Artery Calcification Linked to Vitamin D Deficiency...
Vitamin D deficiency is associated with an increased risk of new-onset coronary artery calcification (CAC), a finding that may help to explain why cardiovascular events and death are more likely in individuals with low vitamin D levels, researchers reported.
Researchers led by Ian H. de Boer, MD, of the University of Washington in Seattle studied 1,370 individuals, of whom 394 had CKD and 976 did not. At baseline, CAC was present in 723 subjects (53%).
Blue-Green Algae Has Dual Cholesterol Lowering Abilities...
Researchers say they have confirmed, for the first time, that blue-green algae taken as a nutritional supplement can significantly lower cholesterol in animals. Furthermore, the algae works in two ways to reduce cholesterol according to the scientists, who were speaking today at a national meeting of the American Chemical Society, the world's largest scientific society. The alga Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) is a novel dietary supplement already available on the market. AFA contains significant amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), according to Christian Drapeau of Cell Tech in Klamath Falls, Oregon. He says that the algae's PUFAs seem to be exceptionally well absorbed by animals. Over the past decade, other research has suggested that PUFAs reduce blood cholesterol and that PUFA deficiency is linked with cardiovascular disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, certain forms of cancer, attention deficit disorder, and more.
Mounting Evidence Of Fish Oil's Heart Health Benefits...
There is mounting evidence that omega-3 fatty acids from fish or fish oil supplements not only help prevent cardiovascular diseases in healthy individuals, but also reduce the incidence of cardiac events and mortality in patients with existing heart disease. A new study, published in the August 11, 2009, issue of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, extensively reviews data from a broad range of studies in tens of thousands of patients and sets forth suggested daily targets for omega-3 consumption.
Resveratrol - The Miracle Nutrient for Cancer, Cholesterol and Longevity...
(NaturalNews) You've all heard the good news about resveratrol, commonly known as the "red wine nutrient." There's more to resveratrol than red wine, though, and it's helpful for far more than just preventing heart disease. It's also phenomenal for maintaining a healthy cholesterol balance and even supporting increased longevity.

What's in vitamin D,
"It's not useful unless we can sell it."- by the Health Ranger...
It's official: Vitamin D deficiency is so widespread in U.S. children that it poses a huge threat to the future health of an entire generation. A new study published in the journal Pediatrics paints a disturbing picture of vitamin D deficiency across the population of children aged 1 through 21. Three-fourths of young African American children, for example, are deficient in vitamin D. Much the same pattern holds true for Mexican American children. Even white kids, with their fairer skin and greater vitamin D production, hit the charts with 50% - 60% deficiency, depending on the age group.
Experts Issue Powerful Tanning Bed Warning...
Paige Wood started going to tanning salons when she was 18 years old. Now at 27, she's fighting melanoma, a deadly form of skin cancer. "It's definitely been an ongoing battle for me with just remaining optimistic," Wood said. In the journal Lancet Oncology, an international panel of cancer experts upgrade the warning on tanning beds from "probably to "definitely" able to cause cancer. "There have been a number of studies showing an increased risk in melanoma and it has been particularly in people who start using tanning beds before the age of 35," said Dr. Jennifer Stein, a Dermatologist at NYU Langone Medical Center.
Rates Of Severe Childhood Obesity Have Tripled...
Rates of severe childhood obesity have tripled in the last 25 years, putting many children at risk for diabetes and heart disease, according to a report in Academic Pediatrics by an obesity expert at Brenner Children's Hospital, part of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. "Children are not only becoming obese, but becoming severely obese, which impacts their overall health," said Joseph Skelton, M.D., lead author and director of the Brenner FIT (Families in Training) Program. "These findings reinforce the fact that medically-based programs to treat obesity are needed throughout the United States and insurance companies should be encouraged to cover this care."
Vitamin D Prevents Cancer: Is It True? - VIDEO
In a new study, researchers at the UCSD School of Medicine and Moores Cancer Center used a complex computer prediction model to determine that intake of vitamin D3 and calcium would prevent 58,000 new cases of breast cancer and 49,000 new cases of colorectal cancer annually in the US and Canada. The researchers model also predicted that 75% of deaths from these cancers could be prevented with adequate intake of vitamin D3 and calcium. Join Carole Baggerly with GrassrootsHealth as she discusses this new research.
Eating High Levels Of Fructose Impairs Memory In Rats...
Researchers at Georgia State University have found that diets high in fructose — a type of sugar found in most processed foods and beverages — impaired the spatial memory of adult rats.
Blood Pressure Targets: Aiming Lower Offers No Benefit, Review Finds...
Aiming for lower than standard blood pressure targets offers no known clinical benefit, according to a Cochrane Review. In a systematic review of the evidence, researchers found that using antihypertensive drugs to reduce blood pressure below the 140/90 mm Hg standard was not associated with any reduction in death rates or serious morbidity.
Human Heart Regenerates Cells Automatically: One Percent Each Year...
(NaturalNews) In a groundbreaking new study, researchers from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden have demonstrated that heart cells are able to regenerate themselves, overturning the conventional wisdom that the body cannot replace damaged heart cells.
Researchers immediately hailed the study as providing new hope for prevention and treatment of diseased hearts."I think this will be one of the most important papers in cardiovascular medicine in years," said Dr. Charles Murry, a heart researcher at the University of Washington in Seattle. "It helps settle a longstanding controversy about whether the human heart has any ability to regenerate itself."
Caffeine May Prevent and Help Reverse Alzheimer's Disease...
(NaturalNews) There is probably no more dreaded and feared disease than memory-destroying and life-robbing Alzheimer's. According to the National Institute on Aging (NIA), as many as 2.4 to 4.5 million Americans are currently living with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and, as Baby Boomers age, those numbers are expected to soar. Unfortunately, despite millions spent on research and the development of drugs to delay or help symptoms, the bottom line is nothing works to truly prevent, stop or heal the disease. At least, nothing from Big Pharma. The National Institutes of Health's NIA web site does list some natural strategies -- a nutritious diet, exercise, social engagement, and mentally stimulating pursuits -- which may prevent or delay AD. But now there's new and stunning research that strongly suggests a substance found in nature offers another a way to fight Alzheimer's and maybe even reverse its effects: caffeine.
A Protein Drink in Morning is Complete Meal for a Balanced Start to the Day...
(NaturalNews) Having a protein drink in the morning is probably the best way to create sustainable energy throughout the day. Mid-morning and mid-afternoon hunger pangs and energy dips can disappear altogether. A protein shake in the morning is a filling and complete breakfast which contains protein, fats and carbohydrate, all in one meal.
