Autism Nutrition Nutritional health supplements have been proven to be an intelligent choice by parents of autistic children. If your healthcare provider “doesn’t believe in them” – then I suggest you find another health professional. There is no debate – good nutrition is essential for your child’s health – now let’s talk about what really works.

Many of the clients I see are young children with autism. As a homeopath and a CEASE practitioner I not only listen to the parent or the child describe their chief complaint, but also observe their appearance, demeanor, behavior and a host of other items as part of the intake. One of the items noted quite often in kids with autism is pasty skin or looking malnourished. (more…)

Six signs you are vitamin C deficient

The common disease directly attributed to vitamin C deficiency is scurvy. Scurvy creates a malaise of fatigue and lethargy, affects bone and muscle strength, and stifles the immune system.

Some nutritional experts consider scurvy a manifestation of acidosis, extreme acidity or low pH. That condition gives rise to many other diseases, even cancer. Thanks to using citrus to curb the two million earlier sailors’ scurvy, scurvy’s occurrence has greatly diminished from the late 18th century till now. But it does still occur. (more…)

“…it takes much more than logic and clear-cut demonstrations to overcome the inertia and dogma of established thought.” – Irving Stone

Irving Stone was an early thinker and writer about vitamin C (its scientific name is ascorbic acid). He knew it would be an uphill battle to change the way the medical profession viewed vitamin C. While most doctors accept that scurvy is a vitamin C deficiency illness, few have made the rather humongous jump to seeing high dose intravenous vitamin C as a major player in the management of cancer.

Crouching Garnish, Hidden SuperFood: The Secret Life of Kale

Could kale, a less domesticated, disheveled form of cabbage, really be one of the most potent healing foods in existence today? 

Few foods commonly available at the produce stand are as beneficial to your health as kale.  And yet, sadly, it is more commonly found dressing up something not as healthy in a display case as a decoration than on someone’s plate where it belongs.

Kale is actually a form of cabbage that evaded domestication, sharing many of the same traits as wilder plant relatives unafraid of holding on to their bitter principle, and relatively unruly appearance. (more…)

Superfoods are nutrient-rich foods packed with phytonutrients that have a powerful effect on human health.

Antioxidant Vitamins Help to Preserve Cognitive Function

Antioxidant Vitamins Help to Preserve Cognitive Function
Previously, a number of studies have suggested that Alzheimer’s Disease is neurodegenerative, and that antioxidants may protect against the loss of synapses in the brain.  Gabriele Nagel, from the University of Ulm (East Germany), and colleagues studied a group of men and women, ages 65 to 90 years, assessing subjects via neuropsychological testing, surveying their lifestyles, testing blood for vitamin levels, and calculating body mass index (BMI). The team selected 74 participants with mild dementia and compared them to a control group of 158 age-matched subjects. The concentration of vitamin C and beta carotene in the serum of the dementia patients was significantly lower, as compared to the control subjects. No difference in other circulating antioxidants (vitamin D, lycopene, coenzyme Q 10) was observed. Writing that: “Our findings suggest an association of vitamin C and beta carotene with dementia,” the researchers posit that it may be possible to influence the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s Disease by modulating the person’s diet or dietary antioxidant consumption.

A Multifocal Strategy for Cancer Control
Cancer can be – and often is – a wily opponent. In large measure, this reflects the fact that it is a constantly moving target. Cancer is heavy-handed. There is nothing subtle at all about the presence of a malignant tumor in your kidney or lung. Cancer makes no attempt to veil its threat. It is a disease that can gather momentum quickly and attack with frightening ferocity. Only a concerted and combined effort can repel such an attack. It is necessary to combat it from every possible angle. (more…)

Proven to kill cancer cells without destroying your immune system

Chemotherapy is one of the most well known ways to treat cancer. Unfortunately, chemotherapy drugs by nature are extremely toxic and usually work against your body’s natural mechanisms to fight cancer. It destroys your host immunity instead of supporting it. Along with inhibiting your immunity, it destroys healthy cells in your body as well and can lead to more severe health problems going forward. The other side effect chemotherapy has is the fact that it can actually support the growth of more cancer cells by destroying the immune system.

An alternative to chemotherapy can be found in natural compounds that can kill cancer cells without destroying the healthy cells that are essential for recovery. It is an effect called “selective cytotoxicity.” The result is a targeted, intelligent cancer treatment that doesn’t hinder the body’s ability to fight cancer. (more…)
