Aspartame AminoSweet Danger

by Howard Jamison on March 5, 2010

Japan’s Ajinomoto, a leading Aspartame producer, is launching a new initiative that will brand the sweetener AminoSweet.

Aspartame was discovered in 1965 and is also known as NutraSweet and Equal. Equal is more easily recognized as the ‘little blue packets’ found on nearly every restaurant table in the U.S.

There have been more reports to the FDA for aspartame reactions than almost all other food additives combined. The product never should have been approved by the FDA. (It was a political power play) Symptoms from aspartame toxicity can mimic numerous chronic diseases.

Read my previous post about Aspartame: aspartame dangers

AminoSweet

AminoSweet can be found in a variety of food products including:

* Beverages: Carbonated and non-carbonated soft drinks, fruit drinks, iced teas and coffees and hot chocolate drinks.
* Dairy products: Yogurts and ice cream
* Confectionery: Chewing gum, sweets, chocolate, breath mints.
* Powdered products: Powdered soft drinks, milkshake mixes, and multivitamin drinks.
* Cereals: Cereal mixes, mueslis.
* Preserves: Fruit preserves, canned fruits.
* Pharmaceuticals: Effervescent tablets and chewable tablets

Coca Pulse Test For Allergies

by Howard Jamison on March 4, 2010

Allergy Pulse Test

Allergy means something far more important to your health and to the length of your life than you ever possibly imagined. It means more than hay-fever or asthma. It can also mean high blood pressure, diabetes, constipation, stomach ulcer, canker sores, headaches, mental depression, and numerous other possibilities . . . or maybe just “feeling tired” all the time.

Dr. Arthur F. Coca found a way to remove the cause of many illnesses. The diagnostic method outlined is fundamentally simple. It is based on the fact that allergens speed up the pulse so the procedure consists of testing isolated foods in order to tell which ones accelerate the pulse.

It is a very accurate way to test for allergies. To make it simple, check your pulse before you get out of bed. Then check it 30 and 60 minutes after each meal. If your pulse goes up 10 points or more when you are not exercising moderately, you are allergic to something (or in poor condition).

For more specific details about how to test for an allergy, read the PDF report available at the end of this post.

Integrated Medical Centers are the Future of Medicine

by Howard Jamison on February 23, 2010

National Integrated Health Associates is the type of medical center that should be located throughout the country. Doesn’t it make sense that you would want to have as many resources available as possible to help solve your health condition?

NIHA is an integrative medical and dental practice located in Washington, D.C.  Integrative doctors are traditionally trained with additional education in complementary and alternative medicine,  therapies, nutrition, and toxicity. The professional health team is comprised of M.D.’s, Dentists, Naturopathic Physicians, and other health care practitioners. By merging conventional and complementary/alternative medicine (CAM), you have the best chance of healing the body.

Integrative medicine looks at the patient holistically and tries to find the root cause of your body imbalance or illness and not just look at the symptoms. Functional lab testing is frequently used to discover the real cause.
 
NIHA  treats numerous health conditions.

Some of the therapies available include:

Exercise Reduces Anxiety of Chronic Disease

by Howard Jamison on February 22, 2010

Anxiety symptoms and disorders are common among individuals with a chronic illness such as cancer, fibromyalgia and cardiovascular disease. Health care providers often fail to recognize or treat anxiety and stress and may consider it to be an unimportant response to a chronic disease and illness. The medical community should realize that stress is a major cause of most illnesses.

Anxiety symptoms can have a negative impact on treatment outcomes in part because anxious patients can be less likely to adhere to prescribed medical treatments. Personal costs of anxiety among patients include reduced health-related quality of life and increased disability, role impairment, and health care visits.

The results of the research showed that patients had over 20 percent reduction in their anxiety symptoms with exercise. Makes sense doesn’t it?

The results provide clinicians with solid evidence to recommend exercise training to patients as a means for reducing anxiety symptoms with minimal risk of adverse events.

The largest reductions in anxiety were seen in patients who exercised for more than 30 minutes during a single session.

Fish Oil Prevents Psychotic Disorders

by Howard Jamison on February 20, 2010

Past studies have shown that Omega 3 fish oil is very good for a healthy brain and body. Recent research published in the February issue of Archives of General Psychiatry discovered that people at extremely high risk of developing a psychosis were found to be less likely to develop psychotic disorders after just 12 weeks of taking omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil).

Below is a summary of the study:

Objective: To determine whether omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) reduce the rate of progression to first-episode psychotic disorder in adolescents and young adults aged 13 to 25 years with subthreshold psychosis.

Design: Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted between 2004 and 2007.

Setting: Psychosis detection unit of a large public hospital in Vienna, Austria.

Participants: Eighty-one individuals at ultra-high risk of psychotic disorder.

Interventions: A 12-week intervention period of omega-3 PUFA or placebo was followed by a 40-week monitoring period; the total study period was 12 months.

Results: The difference between the groups in the cumulative risk of progression to full-threshold psychosis was 22.6% . Polyunsaturated fatty acids also significantly reduced positive symptoms, negative symptoms, general symptoms and improved functioning compared with a placebo. There were no negative side effects.

Conclusions: omega-3 PUFAs reduce the risk of progression to psychotic disorder and may offer a safe and efficacious strategy for indicated prevention in young people with subthreshold psychotic states.
