      <title>Dr. Earl Mindell's Allergy Bible: Get Rid of Your Allergies Naturally</title>
      <description>Do you suffer from fatigue?  Always get headaches?  Don't sleep well at night?

In today's podcast we will be looking at the new edition of Dr. Earl Mindell's ALLERGY BIBLE.  Dr. Mindell explains how you can get rid of your allergies and reclaim your health--and do it naturally without pharmaceuticals that plague you with side effects.  Dr. Earl Mindell is the New York Times best-selling author of THE VITAMIN BIBLE, which has sold 11 million copies and been translated into 34 languages.  

One hundred years ago, Dr. Earl Mindell tells us, we wouldn't need a book such as Dr. Earl Mindell's ALLERGY BIBLE, because allergies were virtually unknown.  In fact, at the beginning of the 20th century, it was still considered a rare condition.  But today, it's a exploding health challenge.  For example, 30% of adults and 40% of children in the United States have hay fever or seasonal allergies--an allergic reaction to plant pollen--which they suffer every year from March to November.  And more seriously, the incidence of asthma--a potentially dangerous lung condition triggered by allergies--has more than doubled since the 1980s.

What are Allergies?

This epidemic of the common allergy is not just about a runny nose.  It indicates a health phenomena  far more serious for the average American.  We have all thrown the word &quot;allergy&quot; around, says Dr. Mindell, and we think we know what it means, but it's really about the immune system malfunctioning on a basic level.  Challenges to the immune system can be connected to serious illnesses which can even lead to death.  

When our immune system--the first line of defense our body has--becomes overloaded in our polluted modern environment, it can start to cause problems such as allergic reactions to foods and environmental chemicals. Our immune systems can be taxed by many negative factors in our modern environment, overloaded by pharmaceutical drugs and numerous other 
environmental influences.  

Selling You Allergy Drugs is Big Business

Dr. Mindell notes, &quot;The modern medical profession just tells us that if you have an allergy, take a drug.  It's big business.&quot;  Fifty million Americans are allergic to something.  Typically what happens if you have an allergy--let's say it could be a common food allergy to peanuts or shellfish or milk or soy products--the first step for most Americans is to go to a physician.  The doctor will give them a drug--either an antihistamine or a drug for inflammation--and that can cause all kinds of side effects.  In fact, increasing human exposure to yet more pharmaceuticals is not the solution but the problem--it only increases our toxic overload.  In addition, the drug might mask some of the symptoms of an allergy temporarily--but when you stop taking the pharmaceutical, the symptoms come back because the underlying cause of the allergic reaction has not been addressed.  

A Natural Health Solution

Thankfully, Dr. Mindell has a natural solution to this epidemic of unnatural toxic overload.  In Dr. Earl Mindell's THE ALLERGY BIBLE, he teaches the importance of the natural approach to good health.  &quot;I really feel very strongly,&quot; says Dr. Mindell, &quot;that education about natural approaches to health challenges is the key for most people to turn their health around.  Once people learn how to take care of themselves, their health typically improves.&quot;  

We are not told about the natural alternatives to the pharmaceutical companies' drugs--and that is why Dr. Mindell wrote the ALLERGY BIBLE.  One special feature you will find in Dr. Earl Mindell's ALLERGY BIBLE is what he calls the &quot;Hot 55&quot; Natural Allergy Remedies.  Dr. Mindell points out that all the Hot 55 are available wherever you buy supplements, even though most people have never heard of many of the herbs, vitamins and minerals identified in his book.  

Dr. Earl Mindell's ALLERGY BIBLE teaches that there are many ways to treat your allergies instead of using typical antihistamines, which cause drowsiness and have other side effects.  

Watch today's podcast to learn how you can get rid of your allergies naturally, save the cost of expensive pharmaceuticals and reclaim your stamina and vitality.</description>

      <title>The Fast Weight Loss Solution:  Alkalize Now with Dr. Donald Hayes and Greens First</title>
      <description>Do you have aches and pains?  Do you suffer from fatigue?  Are you overweight?

Dr. Donald Hayes is an author and nutritional expert, and the man behind the Greens First nutritional supplements.  He is the author of such books as SEVEN HABITS OF HEALTHY LIVING and REJUVENATION. Today we will be looking at his new book, ALKALIZE NOW, and exploring how you can use Superfoods to balance your body's pH naturally so that you can increase your stamina and lose weight quickly and safely.

Dr. Hayes tells us that all doctors have studied Dr. Arthur Guyton's Textbook of Medical Physiology.  &quot;And right there in black and white,&quot; says Dr. Hayes, &quot;Dr.Guyton tells us about the importance of acid/alkaline balance in the body, and the very narrow range in which the fluids of our body must stay--blood particularly--on the pH scale.&quot;

If Your pH is Off You're Dead

The blood needs to be 7.365.  Dr. Guyton has demonstrated that our blood must hold to a very narrow range from 7.35 to 7.45.  Slightly out of that range and it is very damaging to the body and can even be lethal.

So a little bit below or above and you're dead.  It is just that simple.  And the body's job constantly, throughout the lifetime that we have, is to maintain that pH balance--and it is not easy to do--given our modern American diet.

What happens is that excess acids go into &quot;collector sites,&quot; storage areas in the tissues of the body.  The blood must be maintained at more or less a pH of 7.365--but if the number goes higher than that then the challenge for the body is to get rid of that acid, to get it out of the blood.  Since you're continuously eating and drinking acidic-type things--in addition to the fact that other lifestyle factors such as stress and lack of sleep also exacerbate your body's acidic environment--the body says, &quot;What do I do with this excess acid?&quot;

So the body will store it in ligaments, muscles and joints.  Then it also takes the alkaline nutrients it needs to neutralize excess acid from the available stores in the body.  It'll take calcium from bones.  It'll take magnesium from muscles.  Your body steals valuable nutrients because it has no choice.

Given this scenario over the long-term, you can see how the Standard American Diet leads to to such conditions as osteoporosis, sarcopenia and osteopenia--the loss of calcium and magnesium in the bones and muscles.

Standard American Diet Makes You Fat

One of the main places the body stores acid--and a lot of people don't realize this--is fat cells.

A fat cell in the body is full of acid waste, and it is very difficult for anyone to lose weight if they don't understand the acid/alkaline imbalance from which they may be suffering.

Get rid of your acid and you lose weight.  It can't be explained more simply than that--but it is not an easy process.  The blood itself needs to be at 7.365 for survival.  If your blood is too acidic, it does not care if you're overweight--it's got to stay alive, so it uses your fat cells for storage.

How to Achieve Fast Weight Loss

If you start to intake fruits and vegetables on a consistent basis, the body begins the process of detoxifying, of re-balancing itself to a balanced pH and achieving homeostasis--a biochemical electrical balance in the body that, when present, promotes healing.  The body can start to dissolve the acid back into the blood, and then you begin to lose weight.  

Dramatic weight loss can occur when you alkalize your body.

Dr. Hayes has developed a solution in the form of an alkaline-rich green drink that can be consumed on a daily basis.  He calls it Greens First--and it is a life-saver for most Americans on the Standard American Diet.  A scoop in eight ounces of cold water will provide the antioxidant equivalent of 15 servings of fruits and vegetables.  Pause to think about that for moment and what it can mean for your family's health.

Dr. Hayes tells us the objective is a simple one, &quot;Look to alkalize the body.  It's a matter of scientific fact.&quot; 

 Look to alkalize the body and you'll see substantial health improvements.  It is all about reclaiming your natural balance so that you can reclaim your health.</description>

      <title>Vitamins Made Simple</title>
      <description>In my audio podcast today I will detail for you what supplements you can take to reduce pain and inflammation.  Proper diet and nutrient intake can be a powerful tool in reducing problems you may be having with back pain, neck pain and joint pain.  So listen in for information about how an understanding of supplementation can put you in charge of your pain.  In my office, with proper nutritional guidance, many of my patients can turn around their conditions in a matter of days--some of whom have been pain-sufferers for years.  

As I explain in today's podcast taking a proteolytic enzyme can be very effective in reducing inflamation and pain.

High-Calorie, Low-Nutrient 

In general, studies indicate that Americans on the whole are just not getting optimal levels of nutritient intake.  Studies by the US Department of Health and Human Services demonstrate that the Standard American Diet is not providing a sufficient level of vitamins and minerals for the average American citizen.  The SAD tends to consist of high-calorie, low-nutrient ingredients which are often highly processed, genetically modified and hybridized, not to mention that these &quot;foods&quot; are grown in nutrient-depleted soils and then shipped sometimes thousands of miles to your local grocery.  

Can there be little wonder that many Americans are nutritionally deficient?

Long-Latency Deficiency Diseases 

Other studies such as those done by the Lewin Group tell us that we might all be a lot healthier in the long run if we add just a few basic nutrients to our diet through supplementation.  A lifetime of poor nutrition has resulted in an epidemic of disease for many Americans in later life because vitamin deficiency tends to lead to what we call long-latency deficiency diseases such as  cancer, diabetes, blindness, osteoporosis, heart disease and dementia which most Americans have come to accept as a normal part of aging.

But this does not have to be.

There are a number of age-related illnesses that can be delayed or even prevented with the application of vitamin and mineral supplements as a regular part of your lifestyle.  Just a few key nutritional supplements can dramatically reduce chronic disease.  It has been proven that taking supplements improve your brain function and psychological orientation and boost your overall immune system.   

Indeed, the use of supplements can improve your overall health and long-term well-being!

Here are the supplements I believe every single person should make a part of their diet every day:

A High-Quality Multivitamin with Minerals. 

Make sure your multivitamin contains mixed carotenoids, which include lutein and zeaxanthin.  In addition it should contain calcium and magnesium as well as folate and a mixed B-complex vitamin. Calcium can result in reduced bone loss and fewer hip fractures as you age, while lutein and zeaxanthin have been shown to help reduce or eliminate macular degeneration--and loss of vision is a major reason people need nursing home care. 

Vitamin D3.

Studies indicate you need about 1,000 to 2,000 IU a day.  Vitamin D deficiences have been related to numerous age-related illnesses including cancer and heart disease.  Studies indicate that most Americans are extremely Vitamin D deficient as most of us spend our days inside offices, then use sunscreen blocks which prevents our bodies from obtaining Vitamin D from sun exposure, while those of us in the northern latitudes get no benefit from the sun during the winter months from November to April.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids.

Your Omega-3 supplement should contain the fats EPA and DHA, in the amount of 1,000 to 2,000 mg a day.

Omega-3 fatty acids help with numerous bodily functions including the lowering of cholesterol and blood pressure, prevention of cardiac arrhythmias, improvement of cell membrane function and reduction of inflammation.

Potential Benefits Are So High 

In my opinion and that of numerous other nutritional experts, taking these three supplements every day is a no-brainer.  You can't lose because the potential benefits are so high while the cost is very low and all studies indicate that the risk for taking these nutritional supplents is virtually non-existent. 

So if it is your desire to live a long and heatlhy life, take your supplements every single day--you should see improvement in your energy, mental function and mood, plus your immune system will be the stronger for it--and as you age, you may not be visited by that array of diseases that Americans have grown to take for granted as a typical part of growing older.

Calcium can result in reduced bone loss and fewer hip fractures as you age, while lutein and zeaxanthin have been shown to help reduce or eliminate macular degeneration--and loss of vision is a major reason people need nursing home care. 

Vitamin D3.

Studies indicate you need about 1,000 to 2,000 IU a day.  Vitamin D deficiences have been related to numerous age-related illnesses including cancer and heart disease.  Studies indicate that most Americans are extremely Vitamin D deficient as most of us spend our days inside offices, then use sunscreen blocks which prevents our bodies from obtaining Vitamin D from sun exposure, while those of us in the northern latitudes get no benefit from the sun during the winter months from November to April.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids.

Your Omega-3 supplement should contain the fats EPA and DHA, in the amount of 1,000 to 2,000 mg a day.

Omega-3 fatty acids help with numerous bodily functions including the lowering of cholesterol and blood pressure, prevention of cardiac arrhythmias, improvement of cell membrane function and reduction(continued)</itunes:summary>

      <title>Zap Your Pain the Way Olympic Athletes Do</title>
      <description>I use Cold Laser Therapy in my office in Staten Island every day.  I believe in it that much.  

It is a great new procedure with several advantages over typical physical therapies used in the past to treat back pain, neck pain and joint pain.  I find it can be quite effective for those suffering from pain caused by auto accidents or on-the-job accidents.  My patients who are atheletes get great relief from sports-related injuries using Cold Laser Therapy.

The great news is that studies to date indicate that Cold Laser Therapy has no serious side effects when used properly by a Doctor.  It is a non-invasive procedure requiring no surgical incision.  There is no recovery time after a treatment and you do not have to take any medications relating to Cold Laser Therapy, a fact my patients love.  

Cold Laser Therapy is one of my more powerful tools among a variety of treatment modalities that I use in my office to provide pain relief and pain reduction for my patients, particularly those seeking a treatment that does not involve surgery or drugs.  And it works nicely when used alone or in combination with other therapies.  

Cold Laser Therapy--another powerful tool in the battle to relieve pain that I think you should know about because it just might help solve your pain problems.

QUESTION OF THE DAY:  What have you found to be the most effective pain relief therapies used in your doctor's office?

      <title>What Natural Treatments Can End Your Arthritis Pain?</title>
      <description>In today's audio podcast of Good Health Naturally, Dr. Victor Dolan, the Natural Health Doctor, discusses natural and nutritional approaches to relieving arthritis pain, and even potentially stopping the progression of the disease.  Natural therapies are a good way for people to gain control of their health and healing when suffering from back pain and neck pain and joint pain. Those suffering with arthritis pain may achieve greater control of your pain and activities using some or all of the techniques Dr. Dolan discusses.  

Some of the natural treatments Dr. Dolan discusses are moist heat, magnets, massage, herbs, natural supplements, relaxation remedies, physical therapy, weight loss, exercise and nutrition.

Hot and cold compresses can help reduce arthritis symptoms.  Hot compresses help relax muscles and stimulate blood flow to the part of your body that is in pain.  To apply heat, a warm, moist towel works well, and some like microwavable hot packs. Remember to never make it too hot as you do not want to burn your skin.  standing in the shower is a great way to get heat to a troubled area with warm water bathing the painful area soothing your stiff joints.  Almost everyone enjoys hot tubs for relaxing stiff joints and muscles. 

Alternatively, cold compresses reduce joint swelling and inflammation with the application of a cool compress or ice pack to the affected area of your back, neck or joint.  Apply cold compress for no longer than 15 minutes at a time with 30-minute breaks between applications.

Remember to avoid hot tubs or spas if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, or are pregnant, and always check with your health-care provider before embarking on any radical changes to your lifestyle.</description>
