After going thru
chemo and and radiation for BC, I now find out that I have osteopenia (almost
osteroporosis of the hip), I'm 54, lots of pilates, walk 15 miles a week but
thin and small boned. I have also had lots of joint and muscle pain. I'm pretty
depressed about this. Have also decided not to take an aromatase inhibitor that
would increase my bone risk. My confusion is.... what supplements should I be
taking, how much and when. I need D, calcium, K, magnesium, boron, ..... I
probably should also be taking anti-inflammatory supplements as well (I ordered
ArthroPro). I looked at Bone Restore by LEF and they recommend that you take
all 5 pills at night. I thought you were only to take 500 mg of calcium at 1
time. I am really confused, doing a lot of research but there are a wide range
of opinions. Too may different things to take, don't want too much of anything
(there is redundancy between the supplements. Has anyone worked out a protocol
for themselves that seems manageable and successful?? I can't take any type of
estrogen. I'm sure there are many folks who have joint and bone issues. Any
feedback would be greatly appreciated. Read more…

Everthing You Need to Know About Life
Everything I needed to know about life I learned from the
story in the Bible of Noah's Life and Ark.
The following are fifteen things I learned from Noah:
One: Don't miss the boat regardless of the weather.
Two: Remember that we are all in the same boat whether you like it or not.
Three: Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark and it was miles away from any body of water.
Four: Stay physically and emotionally fit! God commanded Noah to begin building the Ark when he was 600 years old and he took over 300 years to build it. God or someone in your life may ask you to do something really big so always be prepared. Read more…

Study finds the time of day can increase the risk of dying from sudden cardiac death
By J. D. Heyes
So far, no one has been able to accurately predict the day, month and year we'll depart this earth, but scientists have at least been able to narrow down the time of day when it's most likely. Sort of. In a new study published in the research journal Nature, scientists have found that you're more at risk of "sudden cardiac death" in the morning, with your risk rising again in the evening. Here's why. The body works on a 24-hour clock http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-17127649, which is called the Circadian rhythm. Essentially, it's your body's way of keeping itself in sync with its surroundings. Jet lag is a perfect example of the body getting out of sync. At various times of the day so-called "clock genes" tell the body when to produce proteins http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/begin/dna/clockgenes/, and the level of these proteins rise and fall in rhythmic patterns.

Statins increase diabetes in postmenopausal women by seventy percent
by: John Phillip
The result of a study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine finds that statin use in postmenopausal women significantly increases the risk of developing diabetes. In spite of this damning evidence, researchers do not recommend that the American Diabetes Association guidelines for primary and secondary prevention should be changed. Statins account for hundreds of billions in pharmaceutical sales each year, and there is scant evidence they do anything to promote cardiovascular or overall health. In addition to contributing to muscle wasting and metabolic imbalance, this research provides yet another reason to avoid this energy-sapping class of drug. Health-conscious individuals avoid pharmaceuticals at all costs, and there is now compelling research to suggest that everyone should seriously question taking statins to prevent an unnecessary risk of diabetes.

Novel Method to Effectively Combat Oxidative Liver Damage
By Kirk Stokel
Little known to the general public is the silent epidemic of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease or NAFLD, which afflicts up to 40% of all Americans.1 NAFLD particularly targets those who carry around excess weight. For the nearly 70% of Americans who are overweight or obese,2 that figure rises to a shocking 50-100%.3,4
Ominously, NAFLD sets the stage for a progression of lethal diseases that can include cancer, atherosclerosis, and diabetes.5,6 Risk of death from all causes skyrockets more than four-fold in NAFLD sufferers - and more than eight-fold for early cardiac death.7
Because of both physician and patient ignorance, most victims of NAFLD are entirely unaware they have it.
No drug can halt this widespread disease's potentially lethal progress.3
The exciting news is scientists have recently identified a novel intervention to halt two of NAFLD's core pathologic processes - lipid peroxidation, wherein excess liver fat turns rancid under continuous assault from free radicals, and rampant oxidative damage from disease-induced mitochondrial dysfunction.

The hidden cause of unexplained weight gain may be poor liver function
By Derrell Jones
The issue of weight is a prevalent source of discontent especially in western cultures. It seems that we have woken up and realized that weight control is about much more than keeping up appearances. Obesity rates have skyrocketed along with the associated adverse health conditions. Each year more and more people choose to eat right and exercise but still struggle with weight issues and chronic degenerative conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, heart disease, etc. A seldom-discussed yet extremely important aspect of weight loss is liver function. Traditional diets see-saw between high fat, nutritionally void foods and weight loss gimmicks and products that actually causes people to gain weight in the long run. In the middle of all this is a liver that grows, quite literally, fattier and more sluggish by the day. Read more...

B vitamins cut risk of lung cancer by 50 percent
A higher daily intake of B vitamins may decrease lung cancer risk, according to a study conducted by researchers from the International Agency for Research on Cancer and published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Researchers followed 400,000 people from 10 European countries for eight years. At the end of the study period, they found that regardless of whether participants were smokers, non-smokers or former smokers, those with the highest blood levels of vitamin B6 and the amino acid methionine were 50 percent less likely to develop lung cancer than those with the lowest levels.
Because the study only examined a correlation, it did not prove that a higher intake of B vitamins was directly responsible for cancer risk. It is possible that both B vitamin levels and lower cancer risk are caused by some third factor, such as a healthy lifestyle. Read more...
