PROSTATE CANCER

Monday, June 3rd, 2013

RADIO HEALTH PEARL #526    …brought to you by the Gesundheit! Nutrition Center.

We are being bombarded with ads about PROSTATE HEALTH. One reason is that it really is a big issue since annually about 240,000 new cases of prostate cancer are diagnosed; and many deaths result from it.

Risk factors for prostate cancer include older age, low testosterone and a relatively high ESTRADIOL level, smoking during your lifetime, and possibly an unhealthy diet consisting of too many starches, sugars, and poor-quality fats.

If you are diagnosed with prostate cancer, it is important to check your hormone levels, and start making adjustments in your diet and dietary supplement intake.

Remember:LIVING CELLS WILL FIGHT FOR THEIR SURVIVAL!  So, make sure you are feeding the prostate the necessary nutrients to start healing from within, while you enable the prostate to remove cancer toxins out.

Most prostate cancers grow slowly, so get plenty information and help while you can …at the Gesundheit! Nutrition Center, on North 19th Avenue.

CELIAC DISEASE AWARENESS MONTH

Monday, May 27th, 2013

Health Pearl #525    …brought to you by the Gesundheit! Nutrition Center.

May is National Celiac Disease Awareness Month.

Some people smile at the thought that wheat, which is such a staple of the American diet, could have anything wrong with it.

Well, CELIAC people, or CELIACS deal with intolerance to gluten, a grain based protein, found primarily in wheat, rye, and barley, as well as in some oats. There are many derivatives of these, such as breakfast cereals, crackers, couscous, pastas, kamut, spelt, grain-alcohols, most types of beer, as well as flavorings such as malts, and certain vanillas.

Gluten has been tied to a gamut of ailments that go FAR beyond the digestive system, including weight gain, depression, brain fog, arthritis-like pains, allergies, skin rashes, insomnia, chronic fatigue, and possibly neurological disorders.

If you are suffering from these symptoms, than go COMLETELY GLUTEN-FREE for one to two weeks, and see how you feel afterwards.

Many stores carry a wide variety of gluten-free products, so there are plenty of choices.

It may be one of the best health decisions you have ever made.

DANGEROUS STATIN DRUGS

Monday, May 20th, 2013

RADIO HEALTH PEARL #524    …brought to you by the Gesundheit! Nutrition Center.

ONE-in-FOUR Americans over the age of 45, or 30 million people, take cholesterol-lowering drugs, also known as STATINS.

And did you know that more and more patients ask their doctor to cut the dosage or to quit statins all together because of serious side effects they produce?

THUS FAR we know of:

• Muscle pain, and weakness,

• Memory loss and confusion,

• Premature aging,

• Liver- and nervous system problems, and

• Type 2 Diabetes – by increasing insulin resistance.

Insulin resistance also contributes to increased inflammation in the body, which includes heart disease and high blood pressure.

All-in-all statin drugs have been directly linked to over 300 side effects.

If you DO take these drugs, consider adding the supplement Coenzyme Q10, or CoQ10 daily, because statin drugs prohibit your liver from making this essential nutrient.

We pride ourselves for having lots of options to battle aging, …at the Gesundheit! Nutrition Center, on North 19th Avenue.
