Menopause is by far the most difficult to live for women, after the crisis of the quarantine. Why? Perhaps because it puts an end to the reproductive life of women thus lost its status as a wife and mother. See in detail what actually is menopause, symptoms and its treatments.
What is menopause
Menopause is the time of life where our ovaries eventually stop producing the hormones that allow us to become pregnant. It is therefore a forced passage that is often preceded by what is called the premenopausal, history of being well prepared the day J. In Premenopausal, ovaries began to operate at idle, which disrupts the secretion of hormones. For us women, this means already mood swings, weight gain, menstrual disorders, vaginal droughts and the famous hot flashes. Menopause occurs in general to the fifty - premenopausal approximately 2 to 7 years before - and is characterized by the total absence of rules for at least 12 months.

Doubt over your breasts: do you screen!
Breast cancer is the most frequent female cancers with about 42 000 cases per year. With this women's scourge, organised screening is offered to all women aged 50 to 74. But accession is not up to the challenge...
30% Reduction in breast cancer mortality
The interest of testing is not always well understood. Cancer that is fear, screening is still too often considered as a way to glimpse the possibility of disease, perceived as inevitable. Result, too many patients are still the subject of a late diagnosis. Their chances of recovery would have been well above normal screening and early diagnosis.

A simple idea about food.
As everything has already been said about the food and the plans, I decided that I do not make me in the fight.
And "to force with force" to observe veterans...
I saw an idea to escape the melee:
The good food, it is one that is good for the body and for the morale.
If you follow a diet that makes you suffer, mentally or physically, you are on the wrong track.
Your aim must be to make feel you good at the end of every meal. If you feel congested, vaguely disgusted, with a beginning of evil skull and a strong desire to sleep, you did probably not ate as needed.
Conversely, if you feel hungry and in a bad mood, it is not good sign not more...

This habit of 51% increases your risk of depression.
A new study led by scientists from the universities of Granada and Las Palmas (Spain) has established a link between fast-food consumption and the risk of depression.
Published in the journal Public Health Nutrition, this study reveals that consumers of fast food have a risk 51% higher than to suffer from depression than those who did eat little.
In addition, the researchers found that the risk increases with the amount: "you go to the fast food, higher your risk of depression," said Almudena Sanchez-Villegas, Director of the study.
Industrial pastry involved also
These results must be taken seriously. They are consistent with the results obtained in 2011 by the SUN Project (1), published in the medical journal PloS Oneonline. The risk of depression observed was 42% higher in people consuming fast food. 12 059 people had followed for more than six months, which guarantees the reliability of the results.
Similar results were observed for consumption of industrial pastries (Donuts, pastries, cakes...). "Even the consumption of small amounts was put in relation to more serious risks of depression," according to the Director of the study.

Foods that go right to your brain.
But others are going right to the brain and improve intellectual abilities: better memory, better concentration, speed and decision making.
A study published in January in the journal Neurology shows that people who eat foods tend to have a larger and more efficient brain. And the most beautiful: this effect was observed in the elderly (75-90 years) and beyond.
Then if you have in your entourage of seniors who wish to retain all their mental faculties, or if you want to live long with a brain in full working order, here are the foods you need to eat:
The mad adventure of a rib steak fries through your body.
In fact, eating is obviously there is best for health. This is our only way to bring essential nutrients to our body. And today, instead of speaking about the benefits of broccoli, Parton travel along your digestive system, to understand how you can help your body to take advantage at most good things that you eat.
What is digestion?
From the mouth to the anus, the intestinal track resembles a string of disassembly of 8 to 9 meters long. The food arrived full on one side, and unusable waste are rejected on the other. The way nutrients are extracted from food and absorbed by blood the needs of the body. This process is called digestion (when the string is wrong, this is called... indigestion!).

They say, in an article published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, that binding measures (taxes, prohibitions, regulations, subsidies for agricultural products) would allow the authorities of " halving the number of deaths related to cardiovascular in Europe ". (1)
According to the newspaper Le Figaro, " the perspective advanced by scientists are tempting because cardiovascular disease are 4.3 million deaths in Europe and 147.000 in France each year. . »
Tempting? Yes, especially for politicians who need your money;

Scientists have recently shown that Bilberry increases memory and prevent dementia. They compared two groups of elderly people for two months, during which the first drank Blueberry Juice every day, while the other drank a simple fruit without Blueberry Juice. Tests before and after treatment showed a significant improvement in the ability of learning and memory of the people in the Group drinking Blueberry Juice. (1)

Stop eating "a little of everything"!
"Eat a little of everything" is the most reliable way of rot you health.
Food today found in stores (including organic) is so unbalanced bad products for health, that if you eat "a little of everything", you sure you find ill, too big, too tired, or too excited.
The rule to follow is to eat good things as possible, and the least possible bad. This sounds simple, but it's hard.
Marketing professionals paid for you to crack
Think that, for each type of chips, candy, drink sweet, there are one or more "product managers", working from Monday to Friday, throughout the year, to reflect on how you to buy more.
These product managers are generally graduates of business schools, and are under the authority of a "group leader", itself dependent on a marketing direction.

To be beautiful, sleep.
Swedish researchers have established scientifically what you already know: there is a close relationship between your sleep and your physical appearance.
In a study published in the British Medical Journal on 15 December 2010, John Axelsson and his team from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm arrived at the conclusion that people who lack sleep seem more unhealthy, and are less attractive physically than those who sleep well and enough.(1)
"Sleep is the natural beauty care for the body," said j. Axelsson. It is probably more effective than no treatment you can buy. (2)
The study was conducted by showing people selected random photos of people after a night of eight hours of sleep, and after 31 hours of standby, and then asking them to note their State of health, their physical beauty, and their level of fatigue on a scale of 1 to 100.
Other recent research came to the conclusion that lack of sleep may increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease (3) depression (4) and (5) overweight. But, in fact, it appears that the risk of getting the disease, or almost, increases when it sleeps too little, as the immune system is strongly weakened.

Mount Parnassus is a pile of stones and Thistles scarred, rising to 2490 meters above the Gulf of Corinth, in Greece.
No source, no shadows soothes the suffering of the hiker who climbs the slopes. The Sun the cooked, then the calcine. After seven hours, the water from his bottle-end.
And yet, what emotion to Summit: this is that Apollo, God of music and the arts, was seduced by the young Orpheus. He offered a lyre in gold. Exceptional student, Orpheus came with charm wild animals and human beings move inanimate. His voice dominated the power of seduction of sirens.
Lady Gaga today replaced Orpheus in the hearts of men. Many have forgotten that the Montparnasse was, originally, a train station, a tower destitute and calfeutrée asbestos, but a group of poets who, from 1860, sought to restore, in Paris, the cult of beauty and arts that practiced assiduously the Greeks on Mount Parnassus, where they built one of the most beautiful cities in antiquityDelphi.
On holiday in the area, we have therefore found it useful to pay tribute on the mountain with our children.

UV lamps can be good for the health.
The mission of information on the aesthetic look of the Senate acts published this morning a report where it claims the ban on tanning booths, non-medical use.
Indeed, UV lamps currently used in France are harmful.
But what few people know is that fault in incombea absurd regulations requiring manufacturers to dangerous for users UV lamps.
Government firefighters arsonists
For several years, the artificial tanning is in the sights of the health authorities. In may, a study published by the Ministry of health estimated the responsible practice of 100 to 350 of skin cancer every year in France. The Minister of health, Marisol Touraine, had provided that the rules imposed on operators would be strengthened and that (now priced in some centres) goggles would be made available free of charge.

Crushed by bread? Read this.
Jean-"Dear Marc"
"I address myself to you because you are my last hope." I suffer of neurogenic pain and I don't know how others do to live, or even "survive"? I am 23 years old, and my pain increased since at least 5 years. I no longer works for 36 months (dismissal for physical incapacity). That do, when not to scream, to fall on the ground, because my legs are more, me for not being able to move in bed, so I have difficulty? »
Receive such as SOS is one of the most shocking aspects of my job.
The problem is that it is not always possible to help someone you screaming for help. What to do, then?
Advise him to wait, saying that "it's going to go alone"? Claim that a solution to his problem will perhaps soon be discovered by "science"?
Yes, what to do when, at the bottom of oneself, we know that medicine has nothing to offer, outside course of morphine which is losing consciousness and dehumanizes?
The pain is real
If you are suffering terribly, the first thing I have to say is that I believe you.
I have no doubt a moment that your pain is real. I believe that it is worse that you do want to say.
As our body is able to torture us, to give us envy we cut a member (if a member who hurt us) or us commit suicide if it does not.
And this situation is neither rare nor extreme. On the contrary: the pain comes so easily, she became quickly if violent, and it is so widespread, as happy that did not have this dream to jump of a cliff to finally stop the torment.
•Imagine living with permanent sensation that apply you an iron boiling against the cheek, causing you pain scream except that you cannot because you would be for a bishop and that it internerait you: this is what many feel people with shingles on the face.
•Imagine live coated, the slightest movement triggering you pain a knife in the thigh, and this during the weeks or months, to the point that you would prefer that you cut off the leg, but could not do so because it would change nothing, the pain is caused by inflammation of your nerve in the spinal cord : this is what feel so much and so many people who suffer from sciatica.
And I could give hundreds of examples.
The pain of others is fear, including medical staff. Then the easiest is to disappear by means that suppress the consciousness of the patient (anaesthetic), which is a way of depriving the person of his life painful (I prefer the term "painful" to that of "pain", which includes all patients, including those who have not).
Another way, which is worse, is denying the pain, telling that she is imaginary, psychological, (or "psychosomatic", this is more learned), making the person who suffers... the culprit, a deranged or a selfish who exaggerated to gain attention. There also, in general, we try it knock suddenly of sleeping pills and anti-depressants, supposedly to help him, actually to get rid of it.
And it is here that, for the painful person, open the gates of hell.
Pain is an injustice
I consider on the contrary that, with pain, it is essential that the entourage recognizes its objective, indisputable facts. It is for me the worst thing we can do to a painful, than to accuse him to invent his pain.
I'll make a parallel between the pain victims and victims of injustice, because they are two similar situations, the pain being an injustice and injustice being a pain (pain moral, but which can be of extreme violence).
Victims of crime require above all that it does not deny the reality of what is happened, that it is not told that it is their fault, that it is not seeking to excuse their assailant or find reasons.
If you start to minimize or deny the facts, you chat to the victim pain more intense than that of the crime itself. You put it in a State of distress that can the lead to madness or suicide (in this regard, we hear much of suicide in prisons, but suicide statistics are much higher in people who have been victims of abuse, particularly when Justice was not able or intended to make justice).
Nevertheless, this is a most common reflex than to seek an "explanation" the crime, this explanation in general involving the behavior, the personality of the victim, who should not have been as, to do this, look at the assailant as this, to be in such place at such time, and which can therefore not be surprised to have hit...raped, stabbed.
Experience on yourself: when you read stories of crimes in the press, your brain will immediately seek reasons that are in the details of the story that this tragedy could not have happen to you.
"I don't live this district". "I don't ever take this street". "I'm a man", while the victim is a woman, or vice versa. "I am adult", while the victim is a child. "My children are not in this college. "I would never commit such imprudence"...
I believe that there is indeed a psychological explanation for this: to reassure, human beings have to imagine that he controls the events of his life. He persuaded that what happens is not the result of chance, but the result of choices and decisions it has taken. And this will grow to be considered the victim as at least partly responsible for what happened to him.
The problem is that this attitude, while comfortable for itself, causes a terrible tear in the victim. In order to overcome her pain, rebuild, forgive his assailant, and finally find the serenity, the victim was first need the reality of injustice to be recognized. This is a first essential step. If this reality is denied or minimized, it will remain obsessed with what she suffered and will enclose in a mental hell.
Well it seems to me that it is the same for the pain of a patient. The painful person can begin to consider learning to live with the pain if it is denied by his entourage.
The first step in the acceptance of suffering should not be done by the patient himself, but by his entourage, physicians, staff care, or any other person has, which must recognize the reality of pain.
Need for testimony
I think that it is also explains the intense need for testimony that feel painful people. They absolutely want to hear someone tell his own suffering, because then they will know that there is at least someone who knows, who does not deny that minimizes not, because the drama happened to it also.
As long as a person who suffers is not sure someone suffered so that she, she experiences a deaf anguish: the anguish of loneliness, anxiety to live, only, a test that no human has ever known, and that is indescribable.
However, the meeting, or the face, the testimony of a person who knows his suffering brought him a first relief. This is normal. It is even essential. It's not the sadism to others, a kind of unhealthy celebration, but on the contrary the deeply human need to be understood (or potentially included) by another person.
From that time only, the individual suffering can accept the situation and begin to wonder: "now that is what I do specifically to be able to live with my pain again."
Pain without known solution
If your pain is caused by damaged, for example of the problems of cartilage tissue, a hernia, a fracture, a severe burn, etc., you you focus course first on this issue, without guarantee also that a solution is found.
But there are many situations in which it will not solve the issue. Many illnesses cause intense pain because the nervous system treats the pain of abnormal way, for example, fibromyalgia.
Without any injury or observable disease you experience deep and continuous, diffuse muscle pain without respite, with periods of exacerbation. Sensitive points you make suffer when on. You're tired, you sleep poorly, you lose the memory. Fibromyalgia can also cause digestive disorders (irritable bowel, etc.), restless legs syndrome, interstitial cystitis.
We will deal with the most difficult case: that of intense pain, for which medicine has no known solution, because the cause is directly located in the nervous system.
These diseases make the hellish life. Often, the patient dark depression. The suicide rate is 10 times higher among people with fibromyalgia than in the rest of the population, and for cause, the pain is unbearable, and worsens still during periods of stress for fatigue and even with a change of time.
Conventional medicine is then nothing to offer. What to do then?
Well Fortunately, there is much to do. And that is what we will see, these tips can be applied to all those painful:
Become realistic to medicine
I already spoke of the syndrome of hitchhiking, this situation where the patient waits passively that the therapist or doctor found a solution.
In all health problems, but in the case that here, the pain, more is the worst wrong you can cause you to yourself. Emergency, should stop to consider the doctor as the main person in charge, and put yourself in the pilot's seat: this is my life, my problem, and it is me who will resolve it. Of course, you go from time to time seek the help of a therapist or a doctor, who can still be useful on certain occasions, but you must stop until they solve the problem in your place.
"The force that is in each of us is our greatest physician" said the great physician Hippocrates 2500 years ago. He declared also unable to treat people who had not decided to heal!
It is a question of realism and, finally, of passage to adulthood: stop waiting for others that they "support you". Achieve, even if it's hard, you are ultimately the only person in charge of your destiny.
These principles being posed, now advice much more concrete to overcome or to accept the pain, do so live with it:
Get out of the vicious circle of stress
What are the causes of your pain, you suffer less if you are less stressed.
Stress may be a trigger, in the case of fibromyalgia. It is often the case of perfectionists, demanding towards themselves and their entourage, workers often large, generous, not securing. This causes muscle tension and digestion problems, which increase their overall condition.
A vicious circle settled because the stress aggravates the pain, and pain cause a worsening of the stress.
You secrétez of the stress hormones, which tend your muscles and tendons, until they relax more, block, and become painful. Or then, discretely, your muscles will gradually become exhausted, ignite, and to endolorir, in turn causing additional stress.
Your digestive system is also vulnerable to stress. According to Dr. Jean-Paul Curtay, "all of our digestive tract from mouth to anus, is lined muscle cells arranged in circular layers which can, like any muscle, to contract, to"spasms".". This is what happens when it is stressed, with consequences many digestive symptoms: difficulty swallowing, flatulence, bloating, gastric gravity ("it's stayed me on the stomach"), "liver crisis", gastritis, gastrointestinal ulcers, discomfort, diarrhea trends. Some of these conditions can worsen and lead to chronic inflammatory diseases of the digestive system sometimes very disabling. Studies show that people who are victims of this type of diseases often have a highly obsessive perfectionist profile and are therefore particularly vulnerable to stress. » (1)
It will therefore have to reduce stress, learn to control it. The range of therapies is very broad, meditation in nutritional complementation (tyrosine, glutamine, tryptophan...) through yoga, heart coherence, or swimming.
For those who wish to learn more on this subject, I recommend the health Nature Innovation record " Fibromyalgia: natural solutions for you free of pain without chemical drugs ". You will receive as a gift (in addition to many other things) If you decide today to subscribe for one year, 12 issues, click here. (Frankly, it's worth).
Care your morale
The greatest danger that weighs on the painful people is to give up life, and into depression.
But it found that St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) has shown its effectiveness on small depressions to moderate. A study on 79 patients, found that it improved the symptoms of depression, while reducing the sensation of pain.
It is therefore a plant to try, but attention, there are contraindications so first consult your doctor efore taking St. John's wort.
Balance your neurotransmitters
May your pain be compounded by an imbalance of your neurotransmitters, the chemicals that ransmit electrical impulses between your nerve cells.
Many of them are involved in the pain and its perception. For mapping, these are:
• serotonin;
• Gaba;
• norepinephrine;
• dopamine;
• glutamate.
There are basically nutritional ways to restore the balance of your neurotransmitters. I do not detail it here but I recommend you here also, if the subject interests you really receive the file " Fibromyalgia: natural solutions for you free of pain without chemical drugs ", by subscribing to Health Nature Innovation by clicking here.
This folder contains all the products interesting, doses, where to purchase them, etc. It concerned all those painful, not only the people who suffer from fibromyalgia.
Food intolerances
For some people, the intestinal barrier becomes porous and allow large molecules that it should in principle filter. This porosity develops due to an inflammation of the intestinal epithelium. Wheat protein (gluten), cow's milk proteins (casein) pass in the blood and can trigger a reaction immune and inflammatory, but also reach the brain and contribute to the worsening of the sensation of being evil.
If you already suffer from chronic pain, it is therefore important to ensure that you have not, in addition to food intolerances which aggravate the situation.
Detoxification
In the same order of idea, food and atmospheric pollutants, pesticides, nitrates, household products, tobacco, drugs, compounds generated by the high firing (glyquees proteins), chemicals in food packaging have repercussions on immunity and can dangerously slow the natural healing of your body process, and the disappearance of your pain.
A detoxification cure can help you relieve your pain much faster that previous changes could leave you thinking.
Physical exercise
The pain, including joint pain, tend to decrease when you exercise. This seems contradictory, the reflex in general to move the least possible to lessen the pain.
But in reality, making the sport causes the secretion of endorphins, hormones that decrease the sensitivity.
Of course choose a moderate intensity activity: apartment bike, swimming, ballroom dancing. Very positive results were obtained when patients have made the exercise in a heated water basin. (2)
Can also take advantage of a health cure and a stay at the sea.
You have to be patient because improvements are felt especially by the eighth week, and will crescendo until the twentieth week.
Hypnosis
Therapeutic hypnosis is increasingly associated with traditional medical treatments and if you have not tried it, is perhaps time to do so. In hypnosis the patient is guided by the hypnotist to meet suggestions. A branch of the hypnosis, guided imagery to drive the patient to imagine an internal reality absent external stimuli. The purpose is to amend certain sensations.
It is this technique that was the subject of 6 clinical studies in the management of the pain of fibromyalgia. These studies show that guided imagery is effective to reduce the painful sensations. It is not known if the other symptoms of Fibromyalgia are actually improved, because the results are difficult to interpret.
You can find more information on all these topics, including food intolerances and detoxification in the folder " Fibromyalgia: natural solutions pour free you from pain without chemical drugs ", that you can receive immediately when you subscribe now to Health Nature Innovation by clicking here.

There also, in general, we try it knock suddenly of sleeping pills and anti-depressants, supposedly to help him, actually to get rid of it.
And it is here that, for the painful person, open the gates of hell.
Pain is an injustice
I consider on the contrary that, with pain, it is essential that the entourage recognizes its objective, indisputable facts. It is for me the worst thing we can do to a painful, than to accuse him to invent his pain.
I'll make a parallel between the pain victims and victims of injustice, because they are two similar situations, the pain being an injustice and injustice being a pain (pain moral, but which can be of extreme violence).
Victims of crime require above all that it does not deny the reality of what is happened, that it is not told that it is their fault, that it is not seeking to excuse their assailant or find reasons.
If you start to minimize or deny the facts, you chat to the victim pain more intense than that of the crime itself. You put it in a State of distress that can the lead to madness or suicide (in this regard, we hear much of suicide in prisons, but suicide statistics are much higher in people who have been victims of abuse, particularly when Justice was not able or intended to make justice).
Nevertheless, this is a most common reflex than to seek an "explanation" the crime, this explanation in general involving the behavior, the personality of the victim, who should not have been as, to do this, look at the assailant as this, to be in such place at such time, and which can therefore not be surprised to have hit...raped, stabbed.
Experience on yourself: when you read stories of crimes in the press, your brain will immediately seek reasons that are in the details of the story that this tragedy could not have happen to you.
"I don't live this district". "I don't ever take this street". "I'm a man", while the victim is a woman, or vice versa. "I am adult", while the victim is a child. "My children are not in this college. "I would never commit such imprudence"...
I believe that there is indeed a psychological explanation for this: to reassure, human beings have to imagine that he controls the events of his life. He persuaded that what happens is not the result of chance, but the result of choices and decisions it has taken. And this will grow to be considered the victim as at least partly responsible for what happened to him.
The problem is that this attitude, while comfortable for itself, causes a terrible tear in the victim. In order to overcome her pain, rebuild, forgive his assailant, and finally find the serenity, the victim was first need the reality of injustice to be recognized. This is a first essential step. If this reality is denied or minimized, it will remain obsessed with what she suffered and will enclose in a mental hell.
Well it seems to me that it is the same for the pain of a patient. The painful person can begin to consider learning to live with the pain if it is denied by his entourage.
The first step in the acceptance of suffering should not be done by the patient himself, but by his entourage, physicians, staff care, or any other person has, which must recognize the reality of pain.
Need for testimony
I think that it is also explains the intense need for testimony that feel painful people. They absolutely want to hear someone tell his own suffering, because then they will know that there is at least someone who knows, who does not deny that minimizes not, because the drama happened to it also.
As long as a person who suffers is not sure someone suffered so that she, she experiences a deaf anguish: the anguish of loneliness, anxiety to live, only, a test that no human has ever known, and that is indescribable.
However, the meeting, or the face, the testimony of a person who knows his suffering brought him a first relief. This is normal. It is even essential. It's not the sadism to others, a kind of unhealthy celebration, but on the contrary the deeply human need to be understood (or potentially included) by another person.
From that time only, the individual suffering can accept the situation and begin to wonder: "now that is what I do specifically to be able to live with my pain again."
Pain without known solution
If your pain is caused by damaged, for example of the problems of cartilage tissue, a hernia, a fracture, a severe burn, etc., you you focus course first on this issue, without guarantee also that a solution is found.
But there are many situations in which it will not solve the issue. Many illnesses cause intense pain because the nervous system treats the pain of abnormal way, for example, fibromyalgia.
Without any injury or observable disease you experience deep and continuous, diffuse muscle pain without respite, with periods of exacerbation. Sensitive points you make suffer when on. You're tired, you sleep poorly, you lose the memory. Fibromyalgia can also cause digestive disorders (irritable bowel, etc.), restless legs syndrome, interstitial cystitis.
We will deal with the most difficult case: that of intense pain, for which medicine has no known solution, because the cause is directly located in the nervous system.
These diseases make the hellish life. Often, the patient dark depression. The suicide rate is 10 times higher among people with fibromyalgia than in the rest of the population, and for cause, the pain is unbearable, and worsens still during periods of stress for fatigue and even with a change of time.
Conventional medicine is then nothing to offer. What to do then?
Well Fortunately, there is much to do. And that is what we will see, these tips can be applied to all those painful:
Become realistic to medicine
I already spoke of the syndrome of hitchhiking, this situation where the patient waits passively that the therapist or doctor found a solution.
In all health problems, but in the case that here, the pain, more is the worst wrong you can cause you to yourself. Emergency, should stop to consider the doctor as the main person in charge, and put yourself in the pilot's seat: this is my life, my problem, and it is me who will resolve it. Of course, you go from time to time seek the help of a therapist or a doctor, who can still be useful on certain occasions, but you must stop until they solve the problem in your place.
"The force that is in each of us is our greatest physician" said the great physician Hippocrates 2500 years ago. He declared also unable to treat people who had not decided to heal!
It is a question of realism and, finally, of passage to adulthood: stop waiting for others that they "support you". Achieve, even if it's hard, you are ultimately the only person in charge of your destiny.
These principles being posed, now advice much more concrete to overcome or to accept the pain, do so live with it:
Get out of the vicious circle of stress
What are the causes of your pain, you suffer less if you are less stressed.
Stress may be a trigger, in the case of fibromyalgia. It is often the case of perfectionists, demanding towards themselves and their entourage, workers often large, generous, not securing. This causes muscle tension and digestion problems, which increase their overall condition.
A vicious circle settled because the stress aggravates the pain, and pain cause a worsening of the stress.
You secrétez of the stress hormones, which tend your muscles and tendons, until they relax more, block, and become painful. Or then, discretely, your muscles will gradually become exhausted, ignite, and to endolorir, in turn causing additional stress.
Your digestive system is also vulnerable to stress. According to Dr. Jean-Paul Curtay, "all of our digestive tract from mouth to anus, is lined muscle cells arranged in circular layers which can, like any muscle, to contract, to"spasms".". This is what happens when it is stressed, with consequences many digestive symptoms: difficulty swallowing, flatulence, bloating, gastric gravity ("it's stayed me on the stomach"), "liver crisis", gastritis, gastrointestinal ulcers, discomfort, diarrhea trends. Some of these conditions can worsen and lead to chronic inflammatory diseases of the digestive system sometimes very disabling. Studies show that people who are victims of this type of diseases often have a highly obsessive perfectionist profile and are therefore particularly vulnerable to stress. » (1)
It will therefore have to reduce stress, learn to control it. The range of therapies is very broad, meditation in nutritional complementation (tyrosine, glutamine, tryptophan...) through yoga, heart coherence, or swimming.
For those who wish to learn more on this subject, I recommend the health Nature Innovation record " Fibromyalgia: natural solutions for you free of pain without chemical drugs ". You will receive as a gift (in addition to many other things) If you decide today to subscribe for one year, 12 issues, click here. (Frankly, it's worth).
Care your morale
The greatest danger that weighs on the painful people is to give up life, and into depression.
But it found that St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) has shown its effectiveness on small depressions to moderate. A study on 79 patients, found that it improved the symptoms of depression, while reducing the sensation of pain.
It is therefore a plant to try, but attention, there are contraindications so first consult your doctor efore taking St. John's wort.
Balance your neurotransmitters
May your pain be compounded by an imbalance of your neurotransmitters, the chemicals that ransmit electrical impulses between your nerve cells.
Many of them are involved in the pain and its perception. For mapping, these are:
• serotonin;
• Gaba;
• norepinephrine;
• dopamine;
• glutamate.
There are basically nutritional ways to restore the balance of your neurotransmitters. I do not detail it here but I recommend you here also, if the subject interests you really receive the file " Fibromyalgia: natural solutions for you free of pain without chemical drugs ", by subscribing to Health Nature Innovation by clicking here.
This folder contains all the products interesting, doses, where to purchase them, etc. It concerned all those painful, not only the people who suffer from fibromyalgia.
Food intolerances
For some people, the intestinal barrier becomes porous and allow large molecules that it should in principle filter. This porosity develops due to an inflammation of the intestinal epithelium. Wheat protein (gluten), cow's milk proteins (casein) pass in the blood and can trigger a reaction immune and inflammatory, but also reach the brain and contribute to the worsening of the sensation of being evil.
If you already suffer from chronic pain, it is therefore important to ensure that you have not, in addition to food intolerances which aggravate the situation.
Detoxification
In the same order of idea, food and atmospheric pollutants, pesticides, nitrates, household products, tobacco, drugs, compounds generated by the high firing (glyquees proteins), chemicals in food packaging have repercussions on immunity and can dangerously slow the natural healing of your body process, and the disappearance of your pain.
A detoxification cure can help you relieve your pain much faster that previous changes could leave you thinking.
Physical exercise
The pain, including joint pain, tend to decrease when you exercise. This seems contradictory, the reflex in general to move the least possible to lessen the pain.
But in reality, making the sport causes the secretion of endorphins, hormones that decrease the sensitivity.
Of course choose a moderate intensity activity: apartment bike, swimming, ballroom dancing. Very positive results were obtained when patients have made the exercise in a heated water basin. (2)
Can also take advantage of a health cure and a stay at the sea.
You have to be patient because improvements are felt especially by the eighth week, and will crescendo until the twentieth week.
Hypnosis
Therapeutic hypnosis is increasingly associated with traditional medical treatments and if you have not tried it, is perhaps time to do so. In hypnosis the patient is guided by the hypnotist to meet suggestions. A branch of the hypnosis, guided imagery to drive the patient to imagine an internal reality absent external stimuli. The purpose is to amend certain sensations.
It is this technique that was the subject of 6 clinical studies in the management of the pain of fibromyalgia. These studies show that guided imagery is effective to reduce the painful sensations. It is not known if the other symptoms of Fibromyalgia are actually improved, because the results are difficult to interpret.
You can find more information on all these topics, including food intolerances and detoxification in the folder " Fibromyalgia: natural solutions pour free you from pain without chemical drugs ", that you can receive immediately when you subscribe now to Health Nature Innovation by clicking here.

Are you depressed? Bravo!
While many depressed people are ashamed of their State and envy the "courage" of the others, my vision is exactly inverse.
Instead, I consider to be proud to be depressed, despite the terrible pain that it causes. And before you talk about solutions to the depression, we will proceed to a distribution of medals :
(1) Medal of generosity
If you are depressed, you deserve the first Medal of the generosity.
Indeed, a Cambridge study published in 2007 showed a correlation between the tendency to epression and the ability to experience the penalty for any person. (1)
More you are sensitive to the plight of others, more you care of your entourage, more you worry the woes of the world, more you risk to a depression.
This discovery radically questioned the vision of the depressed as person being a selfish centered on its small problems.
It explains the higher incidence of depression in women.
(2) The resistance Medal

What is osteoarthritis.The simplest way to prevent osteoarthritis.
If you are afraid to have a day of osteoarthritis, you are right. Osteoarthritis plagues half of people over 65 in industrialized countries: it is the most common joint problem and the leading cause of disability in the elderly.
If you are between the ages of 45 and 64, you have a 30% risk. (1)
Given the trouble and pain that causes this disease for years or decades, it seems essential to worry now prevent him from appearing, especially if you have one of the following predisposition:
•excess weight
•injuries to joints
•inheritance
•gender (women have more osteoarthritis than men)
•misalignment of the bones (legs in X) or bowed legs
Then here's what you need to know about OA:
Osteoarthritis is not caused by the wear and tear of cartilage
Often imagine that osteoarthritis is caused by wear of the cartilage at the junction between the bones. By rubbing against the other, the two surfaces of cartilage would eventually erode.
It is a nice but naive vision. Here's how things really are:

Manage your prostate.
We men don't like to speak openly, even to our friends. But statistics don't lie: between the ages of 40 and 60, a man on two has already the prostate which inflates, causing difficulties to urinate and an awful impression of not having never really "finished".
And when we reach 80 years, we are 90% to be affected!
Most of us remain passive before the problem worsening.
But think a moment to the happiness of power:
•remain in your seat during a session of cinema... without having to get up once.
•A night full of deep sleep, without be woken repeatedly by a pressing need.
And that is why I have decided today to address the natural trails to find a normal ability to urinate.
Beware of the "solutions" of conventional medicine
Medicine offers two classes of drugs, against prostate problems. Neither one nor the other is satisfactory.
The difficulty of urination which appears in men with age is caused by swelling of the prostate, a gland located under the bladder, and through which passes the evacuation of urine, urethra channel.
With age, prostate swells and, often, compressed this channel, preventing the bladder to empty properly, giving men an extremely unpleasant and almost, impression of wanting to urinate, without ever really able to relieve. Is not only an impression, remaining actually partially filled bladder.

14 things that say your feet on your health.
Examine your feet is very informative on your state of health.
Two, they contain a quarter of your bones, and each has 33 joints, 100 tendons, muscles, ligaments, and countless nerves and blood vessels connected to the heart, the spinal cord and brain.
Let a problem to settle on your feet can have unexpected consequences, for example make you gain weight because you're less, or cause pain because you adopt a posture that is not natural to you. You also increase your risk of falls and fractures.
It should be taken seriously following signals that your feet can send you:
Painful feet
I'm not here talking about pain than that, wearing rubber boots, a market 100 km on a paved road. No, it is rather sedentary women of 55 years complaining of recurring pain in the feet.
Because the feet are so many small bones, you can suffer without knowing the foot fractures due to fatigue. These "discrete" fractures do not necessarily noted and can be discovered only after several months! A stoic person despite the pain is able to walk with a broken foot bone.
If this type of fracture is repeated frequently in a person, it is the sign of a decline in bone density (osteopenia). This is a typical problem in women over 50 years.
In other cases, these fractures repeatedly betrays a vitamin D deficiency, a difficulty to absorb the calcium or anorexia.

What your cancer specialist tell you on your cancer.
If you raise a cancer, and that, by chance, chemo or radiation therapy work, your cancer specialist will talk you probably not healing, but remission.
And it will, unfortunately, reason.
Medical treatment for cancer may be sufficient in the short term to tilt the good health. But to the extent where the ground remains unbalanced, the State of disease will return necessarily in medium or long term, in different forms.
And yet, there are ways to clean up the terrain which favoured the onset of the disease.
How to clean up the field
When the patient is left totally to support and interprets any complication or failure as his therapist, or medicine in general incompetence, it is that it is affected by the syndrome of hitchhiking: "I me transportations in the seat (of the patient) and I let me drive with nothing to do (by the doctor).
It now sees this attitude is the worst that you can adopt to the disease, and in particular cancer. Catastrophically, it reduces your chances of recovery.
A growing number of doctors now acknowledge that the effect of their conventional medical treatments, represents onlyone-third of the healing. Second third depends on the health of the patient: nutrition, respiration, and detoxification. The last third depends on the emotional state of the patient: stress, anxiety, shock emotional not digested. (1)

Acne adult.
Wrong if you think that acne is a problem that concerns only the adolescents. In fact, 25% of men and 50% of women would suffer at some point in their adult lives. And even the biggest stars such as, for example, Victoria Beckham, Cameron Diaz or Katy Perry who yet may offer the best products of beauty and dermatologists are not immune to skin problems.
Conventional medicine includes all the reasons explaining that some have skin covered buttons and others not, but several factors could play a role, starting with family history, hormonal changes and stress. Yet, the response of physicians to this problem is usually always the same: a cream or gel to local action at base of retinoids, antibiotics, of benzoyl peroxide of azelaic acid and, for the most severe forms, antibiotic or oral retinoids. In addition, it often women prescribed an oral contraceptive.
These drugs are mostly ineffective, they accompanied many adverse effects, minor skin disorders such as redness, burns or skin that peeling (desquamation) with local treatment with systemic, and psychological consequences depression and liver disorders (in the case of an oral decision) including.
It is therefore not surprising that so many people suffering from acne - and scientists in dermatology - seeking a more efficient way to deal with this problem so painful skin. Fortunately, several non-drug solutions have been proven.

Cancer of the pancreas, eat one of these nuts every day.
Here's a way could not be more simple to reduce the risk of the worst cancers, pancreatic cancer.
Just eat a nut of the Brazil by day.
This information is worth gold because pancreatic cancer is a real s ** perie: 19 out of 20 people die within five years. It is this cancer that killed the boss of Apple, Steve Jobs, last October.
A nut that could do better in terms of taste
The the Brazil is this Brown nut outdoors, color of porcelain in the Interior, which has the form of a small neighborhood of Mandarin.
Its taste is bland compared to the nuts of Grenoble, almonds, hazelnuts or Pecans nuts, and it seems well hard and dry at the start. But rich in oil, its texture is revealed melting on the croque and she let finally well snack with a little salt.

This spice stabilizes blood sugar.
In a generation, the incidence of diabetes type 2 in the world has multiplied by five. This is a disaster.
While our contemporaries to imagine that they can "cure" by swallowing chemical pills, the truth is that diabetes is mostly a disease of lifestyle.
The main way to prevent diabetes is a low glycemic index diet, in other words to foods that not turn too quickly into glucose, and that therefore not sharp peak of insulin cause.
But consume more cinnamon may also reduce your risk of developing diabetes, helping to stabilize your blood sugar levels.
The ferrari of antioxidants
Cinnamon is one of the plants richest in antioxidants in the world with an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbency Capacity, a measure of the antioxidant in vitro) of 267,536, which is huge (100 times more than the grenade!).
It has been the object of a quasi-veneration in most of the great civilizations for its warm, sweet taste, and its subtle aroma - which adds much to the pleasure of drinking.
Cinnamon helps to stabilize blood sugar by stimulating the receptors of insulin and by increasing their sensitivity to this hormone that reduces the blood glucose (blood sugar levels). In response, the body needs less produce insulin to cause the same effect. This relieves the pancreas, stimulates the metabolism and reduces inflammation.
Cinnamon contains 0.5 to 1% of powerful essential oils known for their antimicrobial factors, very effective for stopping the growth of bacteria and yeasts such as Candida albicans.
Cinnamon has three major oils that contain active compounds called cinnamaldehyde, cinnamyl acetate and cinnamyl alcohol. Cinnamic aldehyde has been studied by researchers for its ability to block the issuance of inflammatory agents by the cell membrane.
As if that were not enough, the only smell of cinnamon powerfully stimulates the regions of the brain of the concentration and memory.
Indulge your friends
Don't hesitate to sprinkle a large number of your dishes of cinnamon.
Is it is usual in Europe and North America, to use cinnamon for primers sweet (in the cookies on pies Apple, compotes, ice, chocolate desserts), unlike in North Africa and in the East, where it is in the dishes salty that she is the most used, especially with meat and poultry (think of the delicious Moroccan pastillas).
Cinnamon powder resents a too long cooking. It is therefore best to add it at the end of cooking, unlike rods that are more resistant to long cooking.
Put cinnamon in your dishes rejoice your guests, because it is a stimulant of the salivary glands and gastric mucosa. Your guests will also be happier after your meal since cinnamon promotes digestion, the expulsion of gases and calm the spasms of the stomach and intestines.
Cinnamon keeps cool, in the shelter of the light and hermetically closed to reduce the oxidation of its powerful nutrients. Cinnamon powder will keep for 6 months, the sticks of cinnamon about a year. If your cinnamon was more sweet smell, you unfortunately the discard and replace it.
How cinnamon choose?
Cinnamon, before be reduced to powder, presents in the form of rods rolled longitudinally and cigarette paper. Is in fact bits of dried bark of cinnamon, a tree from the tropical regions of Asia.
The most popular canneliers are those of Ceylon and China, which produce a different one to the other cinnamon.
Ceylon cinnamon is ochre in colour and the sticks are made of very fine layers. Cassia cinnamon is a darker red color and the rods are thicker. This last is also a taste more bitter, less sweet.
The main difference between the two is the coumarin content. Coumarin thinner blood and the cinnamon from China, also known as "Breaks", is much stronger in coumarin and should therefore be used sparingly to true Ceylon cinnamon.
Half a teaspoon per day of cinnamon is enough to draw all the benefits mentioned in this letter.
And to finish, a small anecdote...
"Take a good bloody sheep district...".
In theEncyclopedia Britannica, it is written that the cinnamon was more valuable than gold. It is true that Moses prescribed the use of cinnamon in the manufacture of Holy oil, and that King Solomon himself used it in his precious perfumes. The cinnamon was also the largest source of profit for the Dutch merchants of the Compagnie des Indes Orientales (which were familiar), but I doubt that this statement on gold and cinnamon to theEncyclopedia Britannica, which also cites no sources, is accurate.
Anyway, my anecdote comes not from there, but Herodotus, the Greek historian who lived in the 5th century BC (it was he who told how to urinate in his stories that the ancient Egyptians were all upside-down, and in particular: according to him, men urinaient sitting, women standing; it has nothing to do with cinnamon but it struck me when I had read it)(adolescent).
In ancient times, therefore, the cinnamon was imported by caravans coming from mysterious and remote Asian. Herodotus, who had never gone if why far and who questioned the cinnamon was so expensive, is was explain the thing by a practical Joker merchant:
According to him, no human knew whence came the cinnamon. However, large birds made their nests on the side of cliffs too to be attained by man.
The collection of this singular l'aromate required therefore to charge large neighborhoods of meat which, deposited at the foot of the mountain, were swept away by the major volatile until their nests. Too fragile to support this excess weight, they fell, finally delivering their precious materials to harvest!
Where the price, "more expensive than gold", required by the merchant...

Cinnamon powder resents a too long cooking. It is therefore best to add it at the end of cooking, unlike rods that are more resistant to long cooking.
Put cinnamon in your dishes rejoice your guests, because it is a stimulant of the salivary glands and gastric mucosa. Your guests will also be happier after your meal since cinnamon promotes digestion, the expulsion of gases and calm the spasms of the stomach and intestines.
Cinnamon keeps cool, in the shelter of the light and hermetically closed to reduce the oxidation of its powerful nutrients. Cinnamon powder will keep for 6 months, the sticks of cinnamon about a year. If your cinnamon was more sweet smell, you unfortunately the discard and replace it.
How cinnamon choose?
Cinnamon, before be reduced to powder, presents in the form of rods rolled longitudinally and cigarette paper. Is in fact bits of dried bark of cinnamon, a tree from the tropical regions of Asia.
The most popular canneliers are those of Ceylon and China, which produce a different one to the other cinnamon.
Ceylon cinnamon is ochre in colour and the sticks are made of very fine layers. Cassia cinnamon is a darker red color and the rods are thicker. This last is also a taste more bitter, less sweet.
The main difference between the two is the coumarin content. Coumarin thinner blood and the cinnamon from China, also known as "Breaks", is much stronger in coumarin and should therefore be used sparingly to true Ceylon cinnamon.
Half a teaspoon per day of cinnamon is enough to draw all the benefits mentioned in this letter.
And to finish, a small anecdote...
"Take a good bloody sheep district...".
In theEncyclopedia Britannica, it is written that the cinnamon was more valuable than gold. It is true that Moses prescribed the use of cinnamon in the manufacture of Holy oil, and that King Solomon himself used it in his precious perfumes. The cinnamon was also the largest source of profit for the Dutch merchants of the Compagnie des Indes Orientales (which were familiar), but I doubt that this statement on gold and cinnamon to theEncyclopedia Britannica, which also cites no sources, is accurate.
Anyway, my anecdote comes not from there, but Herodotus, the Greek historian who lived in the 5th century BC (it was he who told how to urinate in his stories that the ancient Egyptians were all upside-down, and in particular: according to him, men urinaient sitting, women standing; it has nothing to do with cinnamon but it struck me when I had read it)(adolescent).
In ancient times, therefore, the cinnamon was imported by caravans coming from mysterious and remote Asian. Herodotus, who had never gone if why far and who questioned the cinnamon was so expensive, is was explain the thing by a practical Joker merchant:
According to him, no human knew whence came the cinnamon. However, large birds made their nests on the side of cliffs too to be attained by man.
The collection of this singular l'aromate required therefore to charge large neighborhoods of meat which, deposited at the foot of the mountain, were swept away by the major volatile until their nests. Too fragile to support this excess weight, they fell, finally delivering their precious materials to harvest!
Where the price, "more expensive than gold", required by the merchant...

Women, what have you done your estradiol?
Hormones are chemicals produced by your body, which are circulating in your blood, and that will bind to target tissues to change the operation.
It is therefore a very convenient way for the gland which produces the hormone have an effect on the organ remotely target, without the need to travel.
The most famous example is of course that of sex hormones: at the beginning of adolescence, several glands in the body of the children begin to produce hormones, that trigger prodigious changes:
Potelees cheeks of boys become bone, and then grow long hairs of first unsightly and sparse. But soon, this is turf, if not a doormat, which covers this once so soft skin that could not grow tired of kissing.
Feet, nose and other bodies that I shall not elongate ominously: cute little baby toes become ugly panards requiring a daily and meticulous cleaning under penalty to become fragrant.
But it is the price to pay for that bloom a few years later, a beautiful young man capable to turn the head of the young ladies, as Prince William for example, which has not always been what it is.
Among women, is of course also changes in anatomy, but they seem much more pleasant. With the production of female hormones began for them a golden age, which lasted more than 30 years: it is the time when their ovaries produce at full of estradiol.
The Queen in the female hormone
There are many female hormones but the largest by far is estradiol, which is part of the category of estrogen.
Estradiol is produced by the ovaries during the years of reproduction of the woman. It is then discharged into the blood and sent throughout the body where he influenced hundreds of tissues and organs: estradiol has indeed not less than 300 target tissues, on which he is fixed and changes (in property) operation, which is huge.
The second hormone target tissues most is testosterone, which has 110 target tissues, is three times less. Note however that, contrary to widespread prejudice, testosterone is also important for women than for men. In both sexes, it is the hormone that controls sexual desire.
But back to the estradiol which mentioned, is set on 300 target tissues throughout the body.
There is of course the chest, hips, female cycles... but the first body which is influenced by the presence of estradiol is the brain : all cells in the brains of women have receptors to estradiols: mood, memory, and a large number of cognitive functions are regulated in women, by estradiol. It stimulates the growth of brain cells, and maintains the production of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter very significant for neurons (a decrease in acetylcholine increases the risk of Alzheimer's).
The second body the most influenced by estradiol is the heartand arteries: it is often said that women have less cardiovascular risk than men. This is true, but this difference exists only for the period where the woman produce estradiol. When a woman has her ovaries who cease to produce estradiol, its cardiovascular risk becomes immediately as high as a man. This occurs when the ovaries atrophy and cease to function, and that the rules stop at menopause. It is a problem to take seriously since women are ten times more risk of having heart disease than breast cancer.
The third body the most influenced by estradiol is skin : estradiol strongly stimulates the collagen is the main protein of the dermis. Many of estradiol, is a guarantee of a thick, soft skin, pile. Wrinkles appear when lack estradiol.
Finally, the estradiol increases the activity of bone-producing cells. That is why osteoporosis is common after menopause.
The decline in the production of estradiol is felt immediately
Estradiol influence so the body and the mind that any decline in production is felt immediately uncomfortable way.
This can begin as early as age 40 and the signs are unfortunately as numerous as the target tissues having need of estradiol to work: the most common include hot flashes, insomnia, anxiety, loss of bone density, memory loss, depression, weight gain, dry eyes, loss of hair, dizziness, vaginal atrophy.
These phenomena are reinforced by a very regrettable hormonal phenomenon: at the point where your body stops producing estradiol, he set out to produce another hormone of the family of estrogens, estrone.
However, large quantities of estrone prevent estradiol bind to receptors on the target tissues, worsening the symptoms of menopause. Effects are especially severe on the brain, requiring many women moral test everything in fact terrible at menopause, where their emotions as their brain functioning, are upset.
Drop of water under straw, at age 50, these hormonal changes cause the disappearance of 500 g of muscle per year, transformed into fat women.
Then it is crucial at this time to deeply realize that it is not you who have a problem, but that it is your body who struggle all his forces to adapt to this new hormonal environment. The test is all the more brutal that the fall of estradiol is fast, so for example when the ovaries are removed surgically.
However, it is possible to take hormones to accompany the transition, allowing the body to get used, and limit the unpleasant effects of menopause.
The war of the HRT
These hormones for menopause inputs are known under the name of "hormone replacement therapy" (HRT). The HRT have a terrible reputation in organic media because they are reproached to increase the risk of breast cancer.
As I do not want to let me type it on the ultra-sensitive subject, I simply give you the figures. You feel yourself:
The case began in 2002, when a major study on the HRT in the United States, the Women's Health Initiative, was interrupted because the researchers had found a rate of breast cancer higher in women following the HRT than women taking the placebo.
Out of a hundred women participating in the study, 1.5 said a breast in the placebo group, and 1.9 in the HRT group.
With their calculator, our brilliant scientists have calculated that the risk of breast cancer was 34% higher with the HRT, a figure in terrifying effect, which made thousands of newspapers.
This was, according to them, to stop emergency experience.
Personally, I find somewhat misleading such presentation. It would seem more accurate to speak of an increase of 0.4% risk (1.9% vs. 1.5%), a rate which, at the time, is perhaps not even statistically significant.
But, as Winston Churchill said, there are three types of lies: the small lies, big lies, and statistics.
I therefore let mathematicians readers of S & N to be decided this thorny issue which divided the medical world into two as irreconcilable as enemy camps. To you, dear reader, you feel if, from these figures, you have rather the impression that the HRT increases your risk of breast by 34%, or 0.4%.
Urine of Mare given to women (without telling them of course)
The THS used in the Women's Health Initiative was a treatment, natural medicine, but conventional medicine, therefore far-fetched and, in my view, dangerous (but I am perhaps not objective on this topic). It was hormones collected from the urine of pregnant Mares, Premarin, a treatment of horse (it was easy...) which we imagine strong although it may have pumped up first "place" of breast cancer.
There are now b - THS, i.e. therapy Hormonale of surrogate Bio-identical, where hormones, as their name implies are the same as those you produce naturally, and not one of a draught animal.
It would have been indeed very damage to waive the HRT because they have the huge advantage of work: there is indeed a phenomenal decrease of symptoms of menopause, cardiovascular risk (-50%), the risk of death after an attack (-46%), and the risk of cancer of the colon (-55% after 10 years of treatment).
Maintain a good level of estradiol without risk
I am fortunate to know one of the greatest, if not the largest world specialist of anti-aging medicine and hormonal therapies, Dr. Thierry Hertoghe, which I will return.
Dr. Hertoghe recommends that women who still have their rules to maintain a good production of estradiol by diet: many proteins and fatty acids of high quality, low grain, caffeine, and fibres. The fibres bind to estrogen and promote disposal of the body.
The best foods for estradiol are beef, eggs, halibut, roast pork, salmon, spinach, tuna and chicken white.
Then, there are natural estradiol creams, that can be used in small quantities as they are much more effective than conventional hormonal treatments.
I will now give you more precise indications on the THS Bio-identical but beware, the purpose of this letter is not to give you a complete protocol.
These are purely indicative and should not be used in self-care. Even "natural" and "bio-identical" hormone replacement therapy is not a game of small chemist experimenting alone, without medical supervision.
The purpose of the following information is simply to give you an idea of the functioning of the HRT, so that you can see that 1) this exists, 2) have basic elements to engage in dialogue with your doctor.
Not be so not disappointed if you find this information too short:
According to Dr. Claude Dalle, another specialist doctor of anti-aging medicine, it is anyway impossible to give dosage recommendations, because it all depends on your particular situation.
Under the supervision of your physician, you must start with a dosage of your estrogen and estrogen/estradiols report, which must be 2.5, or less. Blood and urine tests are preferred, the salivary tests as unreliable.
Once you know the gap to fill, you apply the amount adapted cream every day. The cream is applied in the morning, because it has an energizing effect. You need the rub about 10 times, actively, in the arms or legs, fine skin, and change each day place. This treatment is to be avoided for people suffering from cancer of the breast and uterus.
Hormone therapy does not stop there: it must be supplemented by other hormones, which act in interaction with estradiol, particularly progesterone.
There also must be bio-identical natural progesterone. Dr. Claude Dalle advises, under the supervision of your doctor always, following, valid recommendations for cream progesterone determined to 30 mg per teaspoon shift:
->women in perimenopause: 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon per day in second part of cycle.
->postmenopausal women: 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon per day.
->women with osteoporosis: 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon twice a day.
Finally there are oral treatments, which may be preferable because the cream is sometimes poorly absorbed: better control the dosing with progesterone beads, also on medical prescription.
I stop here for today.
However, insofar as the natural hormonal therapies are one of the main natural medicine, and that effects against aging can indeed be significant when they are well practised, and not only for women in menopause phase, we will publish a special series on hormone replacement therapy, much more comprehensive.
At your health.
NB: much of the information in this letter are taken from the book " the practice of anti-aging medicine Guide ", by Dr. Claude Dalle, éditions Thierry Souccar. We will return to.

Where will you go if Fukushima explodes?
While the club of Paris journalists bombarded us headlines on the last tweet of Valerie Trierweiler (exciting!), the misadventures of Ségolène (sobering!), the departure of Laurence Ferrari (moving!) or statements of the (ir) responsible for European on the crisis of public debt, the situation in Fukushima turns to disaster without it deserves a line in our newspapers or even seconds antenna.
And yet, if the objective of official journalists of "sell paper" or "make the hearing", since many of them is to hide even more, speak of what is spent actually in Fukushima them would excite crowds, properly for once.
But for the moment, it is the silence of death.
A question of survival of the human species
When Fukushima nuclear power plant was devastated by the earthquake and the tsunami in March 2011, the Japanese authorities and agencies specialized in nuclear power have had a single priority: obscene way minimize the health impact of the disaster, to prevent any movement of panic.
The explosion of a nuclear power plant releases a large amount of radioactive radionuclides yet in the atmosphere. So the same radioactive fallout after the explosion of an atomic bomb or a "dirty bomb". One of the radioactive compounds is more common then iodine 131 (131I). And this is what happened to Fukushima (more on this point below).
By chance, there is a way fast, very efficient, very cheap, and without serious side effects, to immunize your organization against iodine 131, which is not the case of other radioactive compounds (e.g. caesium).
Just take a tablet of iodine, in the two hours following the nuclear accident, or you brush with 2 mL of tincture of iodine on the skin (1 mL for children). If you have not iodine in your medicine cabinet, you can use the betadine, doubling the dose. The application is to renew three days later. In this way, you saturate your body of non-radioactive iodine and you decrease your absorption of iodine radioactive, and 97% without serious adverse effects.
Indeed, your thyroid gland is programmed to store and quickly concentrate iodine happening in its scope. If it is radioactive iodine, your thyroid will absorb it and you'll be exposed to internal radiation, which will increase your risk of cancer of the thyroid and benign nodules. Children and babies are even more vulnerable than adults.
But if your thyroid is already saturated with non-radioactive iodine, then your body only consumes more. And you can get this result in you basting of the tincture of iodine on your skin.
It costs almost nothing. But must have in his medicine cabinet.
Attention, there are the dangers to use tincture of iodine, which is not a harmless product. It should be before using it, to seek the advice of a physician or a pharmacist. Do not associate it with a mercury-based antiseptics. Pregnant women and babies of less than a less should not be used without medical advice. Similarly, any person who has some sensitivity to iodine, which is suffering from a thyroid disease and who suffers from heart problems should not apply tincture of iodine.
It is vital to act quickly
The speed of administration of iodine after exposure to radioactive iodine is a decisive factor of efficiency. The protective effect is 97% when the dye is administered at the exhibition, but spent 85% an hour after, and 50% between 3 and 4 hours after exposure. After 6 hours, you are "out."
For these reasons, it appears reasonable to worry today to put in your cupboard to pharmacy bottle of tincture of iodine. Will it not cost you only a few euros.
The time bomb is not defused
Contrary to what have recognized the authorities at the time of the accident, tens of thousands of people in the Pacific and the Japan were affected by emissions of cesium 137 radioactive following the tsunami of March 2011. The Fukushima plant waste have been found on the coast of California. While there was concern that the accident was worse than that of Chernobyl in the days that followed, no one could have imagined how it would be worse.
If current estimates are correct, Fukushima has already released as much radiation into the atmosphere than Chernobyl. The difference is that the company TEPCO and the Government of Japan would not build shelter in concrete around the plant, as it was done by the Soviets at a human cost it is true giant.
Today, it is therefore found with bare nuclear facilities, and the risk of a disaster still ten times greater if a new earthquake were to occur. This scenario is unfortunately likely in this area in high seismic activity.
We are now at the mercy of nature. The Japanese Government knows, and preparing plans for the total evacuation of the metropolitan area of Tokyo, an exodus to the apocalyptic humanitarian consequences that would apply to 40 million people! In fact, huge Territories today densely populated in the northern hemisphere would become uninhabitable for centuries or even millennia.
Denial is no
There is no way to deny this reality. Claim that the threat does not exist cannot exclude the danger, or protect you you and your family. The only effect will be to leave you helpless on the day where the disaster will occur.
Should you have in mind the following facts:
Central Fukushima-Dai-Ichi contained six nuclear reactors. March 11, 2011 tsunami caused flooding of generators producing electricity from the cooling system, which resulted in the days that followed, the merger of three reactors on the six ("full melt down").
Each of them will then be explosions of hydrogen, which destroy their roofs and their upper part.
From this stage, massive releases will occur in the atmosphere and the environment. The Japanese Government took a dramatic decision: ask that of sea water is used to cool the reactors, which ended destroying them completely, and releasing millions of litres of water in the Pacific.
The disaster was so classified at level 7 (the highest) of the international scale of nuclear events.
The nightmare of swimming pools
But the worst threat currently is "swimming pools".
We must know that, in type Fukushima nuclear plant, spent fuel bars are stored in pools filled with water. This fuel emits radiation which are extremely dangerous to humans and is a huge heat. Under normal conditions, the water allows to block the rays, and cooling the spent fuel bars. Machines also allow you to review bars, moved, etc.
The problem is that, following the accident, the cooling system ceased to function, which first produced the evaporation of water and a fire in the reactor pool 4, producing new programmes of radioactive vapour. Facilities to move the bars were destroyed. Today, most no human being can approach these pools.
An impending disaster?
Today, Tuesday 19 June 2012, radioactivity so climbed up the swimming pool n ° 2 is longer possible to measure. (Yes, you have well read: radioactivity is too strong to be measured). Water is evaporating, heat and radiation could rise sharply and trigger new fires.
The swimming pool n ° 4 is 30 metres above the ground and is exposed to the open air. The structure that surrounded it and the claimed is heavily damaged. If a new earthquake occurred and she collapsed and started to flee, a catastrophic radiological fire would occur which could cause emission of Cesium ten times higher than Chernobyl.
In addition, it is impossible to remove these radioactive rods because the planned system was also destroyed during the tsunami. Remove them with a crane would cause emissions of damaging radiation, fire and potentially also of the explosions, which cannot be avoided that by keeping them permanently in water, in reinforced structures (which has never been practiced nowhere, adding a large dose of unpredictability to the operation).
Some scientists even believe that the collapse of the pools would be so serious that all the Japan should be evacuated. This would represent 125 million refugees, which would cause a humanitarian disaster without precedent.
One of the largest accumulations of radioactivity of the planet
Before that you did balayiez hand this information giving some extremist anti-nuclear network, here's what said Robert Alvarez, top adviser to the environment and national security at the Department of energy of the United States (Senior Policy Adviser to the Secretary for National Security and the Environment for the US Department of Energy) :
"Total stocks of nuclear fuel used on the website of Fukushima Daichi contains nearly half of the total amount of caesium 137 released by all nuclear weapon tests in the atmosphere, Chernobyl, and worldwide reprocessing plants (about 270 000 000 curies or 9.9 E + 18 becquerels)."
It is important that the public understand that the reactors that operate for decades, such as the site of Fukushima-Dai-Ichi, produced one of the largest accumulations of radioactivity of the planet. ?
Nuclear agencies around the world are alert to the possibility of a new degradation of the reactors in Fukushima and pools of spent fuel and radioactive fallout that would result. A series of explosions occur which would cause radiation throughout the northern hemisphere, that it would be impossible to limit.
Do not rely on the authorities to you "support".
The moral of this story is that, what that the future, don't count on the authorities to protect you, and even less for you "to support".
If, in an area as crucial as nuclear safety, they are able to leave such a disaster occur (difficult to argue to the Japan, nobody knew the risk of earthquakes and tsunami...), and if they are capable of badly managing the consequences, say you although they act in the same way, and worse still, other areasincluding the crucial public health.
The reality is that the experts of the Governments are simply not concerned in the first place, by the public, and even less by your specific case or by mine.
For them, as for many people, the priority is to ensure their own progress, their own prestige. And if this requires help, active or passive, to put in place a dangerous and inhuman system, many, unfortunately, would not hesitate. History has shown, and how many times.
I will keep you informed
I continue to receive the updated agenda, exclusive information of Fukushima. You will therefore be among the first to be informed as soon as a significant event will occur, and without the information pass through the filter of official agencies. This will allow you, if you wish, to be among the first to respond.
It is in general, which makes all the difference.
And yet, if the objective of official journalists of "sell paper" or "make the hearing", since many of them is to hide even more, speak of what is spent actually in Fukushima them would excite crowds, properly for once.
But for the moment, it is the silence of death.
A question of survival of the human species

The explosion of a nuclear power plant releases a large amount of radioactive radionuclides yet in the atmosphere. So the same radioactive fallout after the explosion of an atomic bomb or a "dirty bomb". One of the radioactive compounds is more common then iodine 131 (131I). And this is what happened to Fukushima (more on this point below).
By chance, there is a way fast, very efficient, very cheap, and without serious side effects, to immunize your organization against iodine 131, which is not the case of other radioactive compounds (e.g. caesium).
Just take a tablet of iodine, in the two hours following the nuclear accident, or you brush with 2 mL of tincture of iodine on the skin (1 mL for children). If you have not iodine in your medicine cabinet, you can use the betadine, doubling the dose. The application is to renew three days later. In this way, you saturate your body of non-radioactive iodine and you decrease your absorption of iodine radioactive, and 97% without serious adverse effects.
Indeed, your thyroid gland is programmed to store and quickly concentrate iodine happening in its scope. If it is radioactive iodine, your thyroid will absorb it and you'll be exposed to internal radiation, which will increase your risk of cancer of the thyroid and benign nodules. Children and babies are even more vulnerable than adults.
But if your thyroid is already saturated with non-radioactive iodine, then your body only consumes more. And you can get this result in you basting of the tincture of iodine on your skin.
It costs almost nothing. But must have in his medicine cabinet.
Attention, there are the dangers to use tincture of iodine, which is not a harmless product. It should be before using it, to seek the advice of a physician or a pharmacist. Do not associate it with a mercury-based antiseptics. Pregnant women and babies of less than a less should not be used without medical advice. Similarly, any person who has some sensitivity to iodine, which is suffering from a thyroid disease and who suffers from heart problems should not apply tincture of iodine.
It is vital to act quickly
The speed of administration of iodine after exposure to radioactive iodine is a decisive factor of efficiency. The protective effect is 97% when the dye is administered at the exhibition, but spent 85% an hour after, and 50% between 3 and 4 hours after exposure. After 6 hours, you are "out."
For these reasons, it appears reasonable to worry today to put in your cupboard to pharmacy bottle of tincture of iodine. Will it not cost you only a few euros.
The time bomb is not defused
Contrary to what have recognized the authorities at the time of the accident, tens of thousands of people in the Pacific and the Japan were affected by emissions of cesium 137 radioactive following the tsunami of March 2011. The Fukushima plant waste have been found on the coast of California. While there was concern that the accident was worse than that of Chernobyl in the days that followed, no one could have imagined how it would be worse.
If current estimates are correct, Fukushima has already released as much radiation into the atmosphere than Chernobyl. The difference is that the company TEPCO and the Government of Japan would not build shelter in concrete around the plant, as it was done by the Soviets at a human cost it is true giant.
Today, it is therefore found with bare nuclear facilities, and the risk of a disaster still ten times greater if a new earthquake were to occur. This scenario is unfortunately likely in this area in high seismic activity.
We are now at the mercy of nature. The Japanese Government knows, and preparing plans for the total evacuation of the metropolitan area of Tokyo, an exodus to the apocalyptic humanitarian consequences that would apply to 40 million people! In fact, huge Territories today densely populated in the northern hemisphere would become uninhabitable for centuries or even millennia.
Denial is no
There is no way to deny this reality. Claim that the threat does not exist cannot exclude the danger, or protect you you and your family. The only effect will be to leave you helpless on the day where the disaster will occur.
Should you have in mind the following facts:
Central Fukushima-Dai-Ichi contained six nuclear reactors. March 11, 2011 tsunami caused flooding of generators producing electricity from the cooling system, which resulted in the days that followed, the merger of three reactors on the six ("full melt down").
Each of them will then be explosions of hydrogen, which destroy their roofs and their upper part.
From this stage, massive releases will occur in the atmosphere and the environment. The Japanese Government took a dramatic decision: ask that of sea water is used to cool the reactors, which ended destroying them completely, and releasing millions of litres of water in the Pacific.
The disaster was so classified at level 7 (the highest) of the international scale of nuclear events.
The nightmare of swimming pools
But the worst threat currently is "swimming pools".
We must know that, in type Fukushima nuclear plant, spent fuel bars are stored in pools filled with water. This fuel emits radiation which are extremely dangerous to humans and is a huge heat. Under normal conditions, the water allows to block the rays, and cooling the spent fuel bars. Machines also allow you to review bars, moved, etc.
The problem is that, following the accident, the cooling system ceased to function, which first produced the evaporation of water and a fire in the reactor pool 4, producing new programmes of radioactive vapour. Facilities to move the bars were destroyed. Today, most no human being can approach these pools.
An impending disaster?
Today, Tuesday 19 June 2012, radioactivity so climbed up the swimming pool n ° 2 is longer possible to measure. (Yes, you have well read: radioactivity is too strong to be measured). Water is evaporating, heat and radiation could rise sharply and trigger new fires.
The swimming pool n ° 4 is 30 metres above the ground and is exposed to the open air. The structure that surrounded it and the claimed is heavily damaged. If a new earthquake occurred and she collapsed and started to flee, a catastrophic radiological fire would occur which could cause emission of Cesium ten times higher than Chernobyl.
In addition, it is impossible to remove these radioactive rods because the planned system was also destroyed during the tsunami. Remove them with a crane would cause emissions of damaging radiation, fire and potentially also of the explosions, which cannot be avoided that by keeping them permanently in water, in reinforced structures (which has never been practiced nowhere, adding a large dose of unpredictability to the operation).
Some scientists even believe that the collapse of the pools would be so serious that all the Japan should be evacuated. This would represent 125 million refugees, which would cause a humanitarian disaster without precedent.
One of the largest accumulations of radioactivity of the planet
Before that you did balayiez hand this information giving some extremist anti-nuclear network, here's what said Robert Alvarez, top adviser to the environment and national security at the Department of energy of the United States (Senior Policy Adviser to the Secretary for National Security and the Environment for the US Department of Energy) :
"Total stocks of nuclear fuel used on the website of Fukushima Daichi contains nearly half of the total amount of caesium 137 released by all nuclear weapon tests in the atmosphere, Chernobyl, and worldwide reprocessing plants (about 270 000 000 curies or 9.9 E + 18 becquerels)."
It is important that the public understand that the reactors that operate for decades, such as the site of Fukushima-Dai-Ichi, produced one of the largest accumulations of radioactivity of the planet. ?
Nuclear agencies around the world are alert to the possibility of a new degradation of the reactors in Fukushima and pools of spent fuel and radioactive fallout that would result. A series of explosions occur which would cause radiation throughout the northern hemisphere, that it would be impossible to limit.
Do not rely on the authorities to you "support".
The moral of this story is that, what that the future, don't count on the authorities to protect you, and even less for you "to support".
If, in an area as crucial as nuclear safety, they are able to leave such a disaster occur (difficult to argue to the Japan, nobody knew the risk of earthquakes and tsunami...), and if they are capable of badly managing the consequences, say you although they act in the same way, and worse still, other areasincluding the crucial public health.
The reality is that the experts of the Governments are simply not concerned in the first place, by the public, and even less by your specific case or by mine.
For them, as for many people, the priority is to ensure their own progress, their own prestige. And if this requires help, active or passive, to put in place a dangerous and inhuman system, many, unfortunately, would not hesitate. History has shown, and how many times.
I will keep you informed
I continue to receive the updated agenda, exclusive information of Fukushima. You will therefore be among the first to be informed as soon as a significant event will occur, and without the information pass through the filter of official agencies. This will allow you, if you wish, to be among the first to respond.
It is in general, which makes all the difference.
Infections: do you dare the essential oil of oregano?
The first time I used oregano essential oil, I was abroad for professional reasons.
I don't know what took me. Was it the youth, lag, 15 hours of flight, tropical wetness, the Mojito cocktail loaded, creatures that appear in the darkness?
Is that pressed to end with this cough that prevented me from weeks to say three words, I accepted a sugar on which my host had paid four drops of essential oil of oregano (well, hold four )).
Instantly, I thought I was going to have to be repatriated emergency air ambulance in Europe.
My two eyes flowed, that I say, pissaient jets of tears. My language and my palet burned more: I thought that they had been removed.
"If it hurts, it is that it is good."
As with all essential oils, nothing is more unnerving that read or consult a collection, both the alleged positive effects list is long. The fall of hair to typhus, passing by the menstrual pain, essential oil of oregano heals so much... lost and more believes.
Always is my painful experience with oregano oil well ended:
After about 15 minutes of suffering, you understood it, atrocious, blight decreased to make way for an impression of anesthesia. My cough, she had not disappeared, and I completed the evening resigned to seek a safer remedy. It was unnecessary, since I woke up, the next day, completely healed.
It seems that oil of oregano is indeed infection, which is his first indication. In any case, this experience has confirmed the favorite saying of my grandmother: "If it hurts, it is that it is good."
How not to make the same mistake
You can use the essential oil of oregano without suffering the same disadvantages as me.
First, there is a question of dose: four drops are not useful or even recommended. Two drops are more than sufficient.
Then, do not like me the error to take on a sugar. Far better, dilute the essential oil of oregano in an another oil, as the oil of sweet almond or indeed any food oil. Dilute the 20% maximum (that is to say a drop of essential oil of oregano to 4 drops of cooking oil), and put this mixture on a piece of bread.
You can further reduce the risk of burning by taking the essential oil of oregano capsules, at the rate of three per day, on the advice of your therapist. The added benefit is that you are so sure to have the right balance. Each capsule contains then around 45 mg of oil of oregano standardised to provide 70% of carvacrol, a phenolic compound known for its anti-infective properties in wide spectrum of action.
Finally remember that essential oils are generally neither children or pregnant women. And this is particularly true for the oregano, which should never be given to pregnant women or nursing mothers. Essential oils are hazardous products, especially if you you put them in the eyes. The only thing to do then is you rinse with water (it does nothing) but with food oil.
These precautions being taken, I encourage you to buy a small bottle of essential oil of oregano and make your own experiences with. It is a powerful cure. Have the always at hand, and use this whenever you cough, spit, mouchez or you show other signs of infection, before you rush on chemical drugs.
The essential oil of oregano to all sauces
More learning by heart the encyclopedic lists of indications on the virtues of real or imagined of essential oils, it is in fact by the practice that you will soon learn to serve you for you and your entourage.
Indeed the problem is that the list of indications is incredibly long and varied. I find not credible to say that a single product can have many different uses. In addition, aromatherapy (the art of using essential oils), are often mixtures that are recommended. The number of possible combinations is unlimited, and all do not work with everyone.
Therefore, you must make your own experiences. However, without guarantee that it works every time, you will be perhaps interested to know that, according to the website "The art of living healthy" (1), the essential oil of oregano:
->fight viral and bacterial, infections
->increases the power of the immune system;
->eases the congestion of the lungs and sinuses and relieves coughs;
->helps to treat bronchitis, sinusitis, pneumonia and colds of hay fever;
->reduces acne and unblocks pores;
->heals dry skin, infections, insect bites;
->psoriasis and eczema, relieves sunburn;
->combat the fungus under the nails of the feet and hands;
->relieves indigestion, nausea, diarrhea and gas.
->relaxing the digestive system and reduces pain and discomfort;
->destroys candida albicans and parasitic infections;
->heals urinary tract infections, and the fire wild;
->the pain and infection of the teeth and gums, abscess;
->cleans teeth (oregano powder) and refreshes the breath;
->stimulates digestion, opens the appetite and has a beneficial action on the liver;
->encourages the coming of the rules, also calm menstrual pain;
->stimulates regrowth of hair;
->calm the itching and insect bites;
->fight against spasmodic pain, fatigue and stress.
It would be "as effective as antibiotics but without their disadvantages (poisoning of the body and especially liver) to combat bacterial infections, viruses, fungi and parasites."
Any program, which is well worth a few euros that will cost you a vial of 10 mL of oil of oregano.

Homeopathy: the evidence
I myself am pleased recently that the mainstream media finally speak of scientific studies on vitamin D.
But I am appalled today qu'ils continue to conceal from the public the study carried out for the Government of Switzerland on the effectiveness of homeopathy, "Kroc in Healthcare - Effectiveness, Appropriateness, Safety, Costs", led by Dr. Gudrun Bornhoft and Professor Peter f. Matthiessen. (1)
This is the largest study ever conducted by an official entity on homeopathy. And it concluded not only that homeopathy works, but also that it is much more economical than conventional medicine. In fact, it works so that patients should be reimbursed by the Swiss social security.
The Swiss administration, that is exceptionally out of its traditional neutrality, conducted this investigation on homeopathy and other alternative therapies in response to their popularity, both physicians and patients.
Nearly two-thirds of Switzerland health professionals recognize the benefits of alternative medicine, use them about 40%, and 85% of the population wishes that they be integrated into the formal health system.
This study follows a decision of 1998 of the Swiss Government to extend health insurance to many modes of alternative treatments, such as homeopathy, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), phytotherapy (herbal medicine) and anthroposophic medicine.
However, this measure was provisional and subject to revision according to the result of large-scale studies on the real efficacy of different treatments.
How the evidence was made
The task has been assigned to the Swiss Network for Health Technology Assessment. It is a service created in 1999 by the Swiss federal Government to assess the effectiveness of investments in the field of health.
The report, which comes in the form of a thick book is titled "homeopathy in health: effectiveness, appropriateness, safety, cost", and led by Gudrun Bornhoft and Peter f. Matthiessen, of the University of Witten/Herdecke in Germany and of the Pan-Medion Foundation in Zurich. They were reviewed in detail all major studies on homeopathy:
?the most important preclinical research: lines of human cells, plants and animals, and biochemical studies;
?the human trials, according to the golden rule of the "double-blind randomized and placebo-controlled."
?meta-analysis, epidemiological studies, and finally the "systematic reviews", in other words the summaries of all valid scientific data.
The methodology of this report had been used by the Ministry of health of Britain (National Health Service) to assess true effectiveness, security and the best economic options among conventional treatments available, and many international organizations.
Swiss scientists had two major criteria for judging the quality of the studies: internal validity (quality of the design of the study and execution); external validity (how the studies reflect the use which is made of homeopathy in real life).
The research on homeopathy is often conducted by doctors and scientists who do not know the specific procedures of homeopathy or what treatments work best with which patients to assess the external validity is particularly crucial. Many studies published in major journals science and who purport to demonstrate that homeopathy does not work are actually designed originally for failure because researchers are anything.
Sometimes even that researchers use the wrong remedy or not properly use it. Some homeopathic studies have tried to use a single treatment to eliminate a symptom, which is precisely contrary to the homeopathic approach that takes account of the land of the person to adapt the treatment!
After evaluating all available data, the Swiss team concluded that the investigations of high-quality basic research pre-clinical prove that homeopathic high dilution cause "specific and regulatives in cells or organisms changes" (in the text: "regulative and specific changes in cells or living organisms").
Among the "systematic reviews" studies conducted on human beings, 20 to 22 have been detected "at least a tendency in favour of homeopathy", and five showed "clear evidence of homeopathic therapy."
The report has established higher particularly strong evidence for the use of homeopathy against respiratory tract infections and allergic reactions: among the studies showing an overall result favourable to homeopathy, six out of seven appeared at least equivalent to conventional interventions and on sixteen placebo-controlled studies, half showed significant results with homeopathy.
The most striking is undoubtedly the fact that the report concluded that the efficacy of homeopathy "may be confirmed by clinical evidence" (in the text: " can be supported by clinical evidence ") and "regarded as safe." Performed correctly, written report, "classical homeopathy has few side effects and the use of high dilutions has no toxic effect" (3).
Bornhoft and Matthiessen concluded there was "insufficient evidence in favour of the clinical efficacy of homeopathy, his absence in noxiousness and its economic character from conventional treatments".
Homeopathy effective at lower cost
The Swiss Government also investigated if homeopathy was a source of savings or additional costs, by studying data from the Swiss insurers, including all consultations, drugs, physical therapies and laboratory analyses.
It appeared that the physicians who specialize in homeopathy cost minimum 15% less than the physicians conventional, although applicants of homeopathy patients have in general more chronic diseases and a less good health - factors that would normally result a higher cost.

When compared with treatments for specific diseases, homeopathy proved to be a way to save: children affected by respiratory tract infections had fewer relapses and less need of antibiotics that people taking conventional medication.
Homeopathy led less dependence on drugs. Among more than 500 patients with rheumatic diseases, almost a third were able to stop taking their conventional drugs, and another third have reduced their catch.
The homeopathic treatment of infertility offered one of the most important savings compared to conventional treatments.
Homeopathy also reduces the cost of hospitalization: patients using a homeopathic doctor are six times less likely to be hospitalized than those who themselves by conventional medicine.
Many other indirect savings are achieved by homeopathy, as a lower number of days of leave-sickness patients that use.
Finally, people who treat homeopathy have fewer side effects and a better relationship with their doctor. Comparing the satisfaction of 3000 patients treated by the two categories of medicines, a significantly higher number (53%) expressed "completely satisfied" of homeopathy versus 43% for conventional medicines (4).
Alternative medicine are becoming the norm
The Swiss will pave the way for the integration of alternative therapies in conventional health system. Following the 2009 national referendum, where a two-thirds majority voted in favour of the integration of complementary and alternative medicine in the Swiss official care system, the Swiss Health Ministry approved the repayment of five popular alternative medicine: homeopathy, herbal medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, anthroposophic medicine and neural therapy (based on the idea that a trauma causes disturbances in the electromagnetic functioning of tissues).
But the aspect which is the most remarkable in any ca is not only that, thanks to this new report, homeopathy is entered in the constitution and funded by public money, but that it occurred in a country where two of the largest global pharmaceutical companies are based.
This also occurs precisely at the time when the European Union, actively encouraged by the pharmaceutical industry, is busy to prohibit or restrict drastically the availability of nutritional supplements and many alternative treatments.
