Human blood pH should be slightly alkaline ( 7.35 - 7.45 ). Below or above this range means symptoms and disease. A pH of 7.0 is neutral. A pH below 7.0 is acidic. A pH above 7.0 is alkaline.
An acidic pH can occur from, an acid forming diet, emotional stress, toxic overload, and/or immune reactions or any process that deprives the cells of oxygen and other nutrients. The body will try to compensate for acidic pH by using alkaline minerals. If the diet does not contain enough minerals to compensate, a build up of acids in the cells will occur.
An acidic balance will: decrease the body's ability to absorb minerals and other nutrients, decrease the energy production in the cells, decrease it's ability to repair damaged cells, decrease it's ability to detoxify heavy metals, make tumor cells thrive, and make it more susceptible to fatigue and illness. A blood pH of 6.9, which is only slightly acidic, can induce coma and death.
The reason acidosis is more common in our society is mostly due to the typical American diet, which is far too high in acid producing animal products like meat, eggs and dairy, and far too low in alkaline producing foods like fresh vegetables. Additionally, we eat acid producing processed foods like white flour and sugar and drink acid producing beverages like coffee and soft drinks. We use too many drugs, which are acid forming; and we use artificial chemical sweetners like NutraSweet, Spoonful, Sweet 'N Low, Equal, or Aspartame, which are poison and extremely acid forming. One of the best things we can do to correct an overly acid body is to clean up the diet and lifestyle.
To maintain health, the diet should consist of 60% alkaline forming foods and 40% acid forming foods. To restore healthy balance, an interim diet should consist of 80% alkaline forming foods and 20% acid forming foods. (click here for pH Balance Chart)
Generally, alkaline forming foods include: most fruits, green vegetables, peas, beans, lentils, spices, herbs and seasonings, and seeds and nuts.
Generally, acid forming foods include: meat, fish, poultry, eggs, grains, and legumes.

Dr. Charlotte Gerson says, "cancer cannot live in an alkaline body," and one of the primary ways the body battles cancer and other diseases is by bringing the body into an alkaline state which makes it an inhospitable environment for cancer."

Many people living in the Rift Valley area of Ethiopia have stained teeth, as the result of drinking water that contains high level of fluoride. The yellowing of the teeth is one of the physical symptoms of consuming high levels of fluoride. This is not because the people don't brush their teeth!!!! It actually is out of control as the water that they have to drink is the real cause & the problem. Water Treatments Alone Not Enough to Combat Fluorosis in Ethiopia. Hopefully the new government can address this ongoing issue. Having stained teeth can cause many other personal problem for the one having stained teeth. Problems such as not wanting to smile, not wanting to talk much, feeling depressed not feeling handsome or pretty and it can steal joy & confidence. I feel bad because these people that this happens to did not do anything wrong to deserve this. So be kind to someone going through this problem. I know people who are going through this very problem. God bless you all & One Love / Ande Fikir!!!!! — feeling concerned.

homeostasis (hō'mē-ō- stā'sĭs)
|
|
The tendency of an organism or cell to regulate its internal conditions, such as the chemical composition of its body fluids, so as to maintain health and functioning, regardless of outside conditions. The organism or cell maintains homeostasis by monitoring its internal conditions and responding appropriately when these conditions deviate from their optimal state. The maintenance of a steady body temperature in warm-blooded animals is an example of homeostasis. In human beings, the homeostatic regulation of body temperature involves such mechanisms as sweating when the internal temperature becomes excessive and shivering to produce heat, as well as the generation of heat through metabolic processes when the internal temperature falls too low.

Whenever the body is overloaded (biochemically imbalanced), it tries to get rid of the toxic (imbalanced) state. It uses urine and bowel movements to keep it free of toxics. Further, when these two fail, it uses the skin (bumps, acne, blackheads, herpes, rashes, measles, smallpox, etc.) to rid itself of toxins. If this fails, the body uses the lungs and nasal cavities to get rid of toxins (sinuses, running nose, bronchitis, catarrh). In addition, the body uses a warning signal such as a headache to notify you of a toxic state. In African wholistic medicine, the cause of the toxic state would be treated through herbs and cleansing diet. European medicine treats the symptoms with aspirin, cold suppressants, antihistamines, cough syrups, and skin creams. Consequently, the body remains toxic and fertile for another dis-ease condition.

The primary goal of adhering to an Ital diet is to increase Livity, or the life energy that Rastafari generally believe lives within all human beings, as conferred from the Almighty.

Ital in most cases, refers to food that does not have any sugar or processed salt. Sea salt for many is acceptable, but there are some that are strict adherents and only each raw vegetables that have not been cooked , contain artificial additives, or added ingredients, such as iodinated salt. Coconut is an example of an Ital food in the Grains and Nuts category and can be naturally processed to produce an Essential Oil.

About 7 percent of married people and 17.7 percent of partnered people in their 30s and 40s say they haven't had sex in the past year, according to the 2010 National Survey of Sexual Health and Behavior. Whether you find that comforting or alarming, Fulbright wants to remind you of the fringe benefits of getting busy: Sex improves the muscle tone of the pelvic floor, lubricates the vaginal tissues, can help prevent yeast infections, releases stress, and eases migraines, chronic back pain and PMS-related cramps. Sex also has the potential to lower your risk of developing heart disease and can boost your immune system.

Meditation is listening to your (inner higher) self.
The highest form of meditation is doing your best. By doing, applying oneself fully to each activity that is engaged, persons quiet their senses, and open themselves to the flow from the universal essence. Messages and guidance from the unconscious mind can then filter down into the conscious mind. Many of our earliest ancestors deep in central Africa understood the principle of meditation well. This is what they lived. Their understanding stemmed in part from their observations of natural law, and the application of that law in their everyday lives. Meditation was not something they set apart time for, they automatically did this as a natural part of their survival. They meditated in each action and behavior that was undertaken. Clearly they gained a lot of benefits by doing their utmost best in everything they engage. Persons nowadays can also benefit by doing likewise.
Honesty, integrity and moral conduct is something that needs to be constantly worked at, in chipping away the inevitable corruption.

Fact: Organic Food May Be Better for Your Physique Organic foods contain more antioxidants, which are not only disease-protective, ...In addition, research shows that pesticide residues from conventionally grown foods may be a factor in rising obesity rates. Rats exposed to pesticides gain considerably more weight, and further research has linked pesticide exposure to obesity in children.
Fact: Organic Foods Provide More Nutrients ... organically grown foods contain more minerals and antioxidants, which are considered "good" fats, and far fewer nitrates, which have been linked to such health problems as diabetes and Alzheimer's.
Fact: Organic Food Tastes Better ... organic food buyers cite better taste as a major reason for purchasing organic fruits and vegetables, and there's research to confirm the taste advantage.
Fact: Organic Benefits Go Beyond Nutrition By law, organically produced foods cannot be given antibiotics. That is key, because these substances contaminate ground and water systems, triggering an unhealthy domino effect that can impact you if you become ill or injured. According to the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization the use of antibiotics in animal agriculture has contributed to the rise in drug-resistant germs.

Part science, part art, it uses natural therapies to diagnose, treat and prevent disease, but it also includes holistic, individualized approach to wellness.

Naturopathy is not for those who want a "magic bullet." Naturopathic physicians (NDs), should be licensed with specialized training and state-mandated educational credentials. NDs, rather than relieving symptoms through invasive procedures or prescription drugs, seek to identify and correct an aliment's underlying cause, which is often rooted in lifestyle. And they encourage individuals to take responsibility for their own wellness.
Healthcare impacts: Including, but not limited to; physical, mental, emotional, nutritional, genetic, environmental, and life style.

Why Do African- American Men Suffer More Prostate Cancer?
African-American men have had the highest prostate cancer incidence rate of any racial ethnic group in the world. At 261.9 new cases per 100,000 in 1993, their rate is two-thirds higher than whites and more than twice as high as rates for Asian-Americans. Prostate cancer is not a young man’s disease. The median age at diagnosis is 68. Doctors diagnose most prostate cancers in men who are age 65 or older.
Factors that can increase your risk of prostate cancer include:
"Older age." Your risk of prostate cancer increases as you age.
"Being black." Black men have a greater risk of prostate cancer than do men of other races. In black men, prostate cancer is also more likely to be aggressive or advanced. It's not clear why this is.
"Family history" of prostate or breast cancer. If men in your family have had prostate cancer, your risk may be increased. Also, if you have a family history of genes that increase the risk of breast cancer (BRCA1 or BRCA2) or a very strong family history of breast cancer, your risk of prostate cancer may be higher.
"Obesity." Obese men diagnosed with prostate cancer may be more likely to have advanced disease that's more difficult to treat.

Massaging: First, to get going and relieve some tension, squeeze the entire foot -- top and bottom, using one or both hands. This should be done with firm finger pressure applied down the middle of the foot.
For a quick energy boost, stimulate the thyroid gland reflex point located between and under the big and second toe. With a firm grasp, use your thumb to apply pressure on this point for seven seconds. Repeat three times.
The sinus reflexes located on the toes can be stimulated to facilitate breathing. Pull the tip of the toe with your fingers and rotate. Use gentle movements. Now, press the toe tips and hold for ten seconds. Do this three times on all ten toes.
Even though we've discussed self massage, the rewards of offering reflexology as a service to your clients can be tremendous.
