One of the most common New Year’s Resolutions is “to lose weight, and get in shape”. However within a few weeks an overwhelming majority of people are right back where they started eating foods that aren’t healthy and not exercising. So why do so many people start out with good intentions and fail?

Most people focus on short term goals and instant gratification. They want to lose weight but aren’t committed to making the lifestyle changes necessary to lead a healthier life. Let’s be honest that chocolate covered doughnut with sprinkles certainly tastes better than a bowl of oatmeal, and who wouldn’t want to eat something that tastes better. Truth is unless you are training for an athletic event its ok to have a chocolate doughnut from time to time. The key is not to have a chocolate doughnut every morning. Realize that there are some foods that just aren’t healthy and you should only be eating them on a limited basis and in moderation.

The second part of getting in shape and losing weight is exercise. Again people start out with the best intentions I’m going to run 5 miles every day. However if you haven’t run a mile in more years than you care to admit, this is a recipe for failure. Set moderate and obtainable goals for yourself. First start out with walking one mile. After a few weeks start walking for two miles, then three. Once you can comfortably walk the 5 miles, start walking four and half miles and run for a half mile. Keep up adding to the length you run and subtracting from the length you walk. It may take 6 months or more for you get to that stage, and that’s ok. It’s not important that you succeed quickly, just that you succeed.

One of the biggest reasons people give up weight loss resolutions is temporary defeat. Maybe they went on a vacation and gained a few pounds, or they had some big projects for work and haven’t exercised for a week or two, and what’s the point in starting back up again. When you start down the road to a healthier lifestyle realize there will be bumps and even a few dead ends on the way. Realize its ok to make a mistake as long as you get back on the right path again, and try not to repeat the same mistakes you did last time.

Weight Loss Day by Day Diary:

Day 1: Sunday February 5, 2006.

In response to an email I received from a reader I have taken up her suggestion to share my next weight control program by publishing my weight loss diary in article form for everybody to follow.

I’ll start with a few personal details that will give you a guideline to make comparisons with your own progress.

- My height is a fraction over 6 feet. (1.83m)
- My current weight is 197 pounds (97.5 kilos)
- My target weight is 180 pounds (89 kilos.)
- My age is 65.
- My physical condition is basically sound but I do suffer from osteo-arthritis in both ankles. The left is severe the right isn’t much of a problem.

I guess the reason for coming clean on those personal details is to make the point that age or physical condition is a factor. Younger, fitter people will find this easier.

I have used this system to control my weight for close to thirty years now and it has never let me down. I use a very scientific measuring gauge known as a waistband. When it gets tight I need to lose some weight, when it goes slack I go back to my normal routine. Usually I only allow my weight to go over by 10 pounds (4.5 kilos) before taking action. This year it has soared due to a very busy January that flew past so quickly I barely noticed it leaving my Christmas weight gain to get worse. Now I have to lose 17 pounds (7.65 kilos) and that is what makes it more interesting and worth sharing the experience with you.

You will notice from the above paragraph I have no doubt that I will lose it and this is an important part of the weight loss mindset. If this is the first time you have attempted this system you will have to complete the first few goals to prove that you can do it; after that you will have the same degree of confidence that I have.

The first thing I must do is set goals. Adherence to and achievement of goals is the basic difference between winners and losers. Here I must be honest and tell you that 17 pounds seems like a mountain to me and I know that it will take me 17 weeks to successfully dispose of it. Hence I will not even look at losing 17 pounds as my initial goal. My goals are listed below:

- At the end of week 1 I will have abided by my goal of dropping one item of food from my diet each day without cheating. I will lose one pound (450 grams)

- By the end of week 2 I will have increased my walking/exercise periods from 10 minutes on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday to 12 minutes each session. I will have lost 2 pounds.

- By the end of February I will exercise Monday, Wednesday and Saturday for 15 minutes each time. My weight will be 194 pounds (96 kilos)

That is enough for now: I will update my goals as I go along. As you can see my weight loss goals are simple and within reach without too much effort. Why? Because we must all start training our minds to achieve our goals. If I set a goal to lose 10 pounds in one week and I only lose eight I will look upon myself as a loser and soon give up. To be of use goals must be achievable or they will soon cease to function for us. - I have entered my first three goals in my diary and tomorrow we start in earnest.

Full Body Toxin Cleanse
Combine the above with removing from your diet what you know is bad for you i.e alcohol cigarettes and caffeine and you will compound the feeling of well being. However our bodies are quite remarkable and have been built in such a way as to protect itself from these harmful intruders, and diet with Master Cleanse. The toxins might not only be from processed foods or preservatives used in the food we eat daily but alcohol cigarette smoke perfume oral contraceptives cleaning supplies and pesticides! The theory behind the Detox Diet is that when toxins build up in your body sickness disease and cancer can result. Master Cleanse program is highly popular with celebrities in Hollywood. Our bodies simply cannot cope with the normal day to day ingestion of chemicals. Most these chemicals come from foods as mentioned before but also have a wide variety of other sources, which is the reason why you must be on the Master Cleanse

Why Use Master Cleanse Program
Nuts are a great source of vitamins B and E, magnesium, potassium and the invaluable antioxidant selenium while fish provides essential omega 3 oils and a good supply of protein. See more on Master Cleanse at Master Cleanse The procedure works by attracting charged toxic substances in the body and then drawing them out into the water. Apparently this method might only be effective in getting rid of charged toxins in the body which are mostly metals.

Master Cleanse Benefits:
Master Cleanse is the world most popular diet program. I always believe that if the person’s energy fields are harmonized and balanced (yin & yang) then his health will generally be good. Pregnant women should consult their doctor before attempting detox. Young children or sick people should not radically alter their diet in any way. Seek medical advice first. So, do start your master cleanse diet today. For internal cleansing we recommend a line of high-quality calcium bentonite clay products called Therapeutic Living Clay from Nature’s Body Beautiful.

I have said it before - weight loss is a matter of burning more
calories than you consume. However, any time you can use a tool
to make things easier - why wouldn’t you? Weight loss
supplements are a tool that can help you speed your metabolism,
curb hunger, or even absorb some of your calories which come
from fat or carbs.

Here is a brief introduction of some weight loss supplements in
the different categories:

Thermogenics - Thermogenics are usually a stimulant which
contains one or more of the following: Ma-Huang, Caffeine, Green
tea, Synephrine, or Guarana. The goal of thermogenics is to
accelerate fat burning past the point of diet alone as well as
give you energy and decrease appetite. Thermogenics are not for
everyone especially if you are sensitive to stimulants or have
any type of medical condition. Always check with your doctor
first.

Appetite suppressant - Hoodia is the name you will hear come up
when you are talking about suppressing your appetite. It has
been said that tribesman used hoodia gordonii before a long hunt
in order to control their appetite. It is said that hoodia sends
signals to the brain leading the brain to think that the body is
full. If your weight loss efforts seem to be hindered by a
massive appetite - Then perhaps hoodia is for you. Look for pure
hoodia on the label.

Carb Blockers - Carb blockers reportedly prevent the body from
absorbing some of the unwanted starches. The active ingredient
is phaseolus vulgaris otherwise known as white kidney bean
extract. I don’t think anyone believes that taking a carb
blocker will give you free access to all the carbs you want to
consume but may be of benefit to the occasional cheater.

Fat Blockers - The active ingredient in a fat blocker is
Chitosan. Chitosan has the ability to bind fats and cholesterol
before they are absorbed by the body. Taken right after a meal,
fat blockers will absorb some of the fat from your diet and
allow it to pass through. Some reports indicate that Chitosan
can absorb 7 times its weight in fat. Chitosan is a fiber
derived from the shells of shellfish such as shrimp.

Choose your weight loss supplements wisely. Purchase a well
known brand from a reputable dealer and expand your weight loss
tools arsenal.

Part One

This article will not be a complex one due to the mass ignorance and fear associated with this subject and fatal pathology. Americans are already frightened to death about cancer and their gross ignorance only compounds the problem, plus, a lot has already been written on this subject, but in many writings, the content is a bit complex terminology-wise and served no beneficial purpose for the masses of the American people.

What Is Cancer?

Many people are succumbing to cancer and the two biggest factors in this succumbing to cancer are FEAR and IGNORANCE. Yes, people are ignorant to what cancer really is and as a result, they fear it.

In 400 B.C., Hippocrates assigned the name of Cancer or crab to a disease encountered during this era, because of its crab-like spread throughout the body. Cancer’s Greek name was “Karkinos.” In 164 A.D., Galen of Rome called the disease “tumor” which derived from the word “tymbos” meaning a sepulchral mound. In Latin, it was called “tumore” which meant “to swell.”

Speaking in my most basic terms to really help the masses understand this pathology, cancer is an anaerobic condition which basically means cancer is the final result or stage of a low oxygen and very acidic state of existence. In a nutshell, this is what cancer is physiologically-speaking.

When someone has cancer, oxygen levels in the body are very low. The body’s alkalinity is also very low. When there’s low oxygen and alkalinity, the body’s cells become abnormal. The cells of the body communicate with each other passing along vital information. Oxygen feeds the cells and allows for proper communication. But when there’s lack of oxygen, a great lack of oxygen, this communication becomes thwarted and the cells start acting abnormally. This is why you hear many health specialists and experts say cancer is “abnormal cells” or “abnormal cell activity.” This is true! Many doctors erroneously say cancer is a proliferation of dead cells, which is not true. If the cells were dead there would be no action. Cancer does denote abnormal cell activity and this abnormal cell activity is due to lack of oxygen and low alkaline level which means excessive acid level or acidosis.

This is what cancer is! And cancer is the second biggest killer of Americans (right behind heart disease) and Western medical experts predict that in the new millennium, one out of every two Americans will ultimately die of cancer. And this is true if we don’t change our ways and our lives.

Americans generally don’t have hearts (heart disease) and they are eating up on the inside (cancer).

Cancer patients/suffers begin to get thin and this is caused by an internal “eating up” process where certain cells start attacking other cells. Now while an “eating up” is taking place in the body, a neoplasm characterized by the uncontrolled growth of anaplastic cells invade surrounding tissue which metastasizes.

Neoplasm simply means “any abnormal growth of new tissue, benign or malignant.” In other words, neoplasm means “tumor” which explains why cancer patients/sufferers become beleaguered with tumors inside of the body and outside of the body.

Anaplastic refers to “anaplasia” which means “a change in the structure of cells and in their orientation to each other characterized by a loss of differentiation and reversion to a more primitive form.” Anaplasia is characteristic of malignancy.

Tumors exist in two states: benign and malignant. Benign means “not fatal or pernicious.” Malignant means “highly injurious, pernicious or fatal.”

Cancer is usually the cause of malignant tumors. In cases of benign tumors that are common in cases of fibroids and breast tumors, fluidic waste is usually the cause.

In cancerous individuals, white blood cells are numerous. The white blood cells begin to outnumber the red blood cells. White blood cells always denote toxicity, imbalance, poison, and foreign invasion of that which is unnatural or that which should not be in the body. Excessive white blood cell count is almost always indicative of cancer.

White blood cells have precursors known as “leukocytes,” also called “leukocyte precursors.” When bone marrow in the body is replaced with these leukocyte precursors in addition to abnormal numbers and forms of immature white blood cells in circulation that infiltrate the lymph nodes, spleen, liver and other filtering organs, the result is a form of cancer called “leukemia.”

Leukemia was initially a cancer indicative of Caucasians in general and Caucasian children in particular. In my earlier teen days I used to always wonder why it was predominantly white children who perished from leukemia. I didn’t understand why this form of cancer only seemed to occur in white people, especially white children.

But when I performed my own research and discovered that leukemia was a cancer found in 30% of dairy cows, it then made all the sense in the world to me why so many white children where dying of this cancer. The leukemia was coming from the cows via their milk and who drank the most milk? - White people and white children in particular. They were drinking milk at home, at school, at restaurants, etc. In fact, other cultures picked up the habit of drinking cow’s milk from Europeans (Caucasians).

A good movie starring Nick Nolte and Julia Roberts came out in 1994 entitled “I Love Trouble” and in this film, its climax showcases and exposes a sinister plot involving milk production from cancerous cows and its relation to leukemia. Movies, though illusions, contain a lot of reality when you know what to look for. I’m a serious movie-goer and watcher/screener simply because I’m a researcher and the Rulers (of the Matrix) hide a lot of information in the movies and like they say, the best place to hide something is before the eyes. This is so true!

However, since the 1990s leukemia rates have risen sharply amongst African-Americans and it’s easy to understand why. All you have to do is look at the high dairy consumption of African-Americans who are lactose-intolerant bio-genetically or by nature. But because they are unwisely following the Western/European-based high dairy diet of Caucasians, they too are now dropping like flies from leukemia.

I was shocked to learn that my South-Central Los Angeles neighborhood friend, Lucius Harris (of the NBA’s New Jersey Nets), older brother named Dino, died of leukemia a few years ago. Dino was a cool dude. It was so strange and foreign to hear of a brother/Black male from the hood dying of leukemia. You always saw Dino back in the day (early 1980s) rollin’ down the street in a sharp low rider bumping his sounds (playing his music) flossing with his cool afro. But this brother fell prey to a form of cancer that was foreign to African-Americans, at least 15-20 years ago.

So yes, leukemia rates are rising amongst African-Americans due to their consumption of dairy cow products such as ice cream, butter, cheese, sour cream, etc.

I have been warning African-Americans, especially Black females/women, for a long time now to leave dairy products alone because dairy is the greatest causative factor in many of the female pathologies such as uterine fibroid tumors that they suffer from. I tell them that dairy is “cow snot” and “cow poop” and have the videos in my collection to prove it.

Even though white people have customarily been consuming dairy products (mainly milk) for a long time, I also tell them it’s no good for their bodies either. They may have a greater tolerance for milk and dairy products than other races and cultures, but it still negatively affects them too.

Milk does not do a body good (unless you’re a baby cow [calf]). Got milk? If you do, you got nothing but PUS (MUCUS)! Almond Breeze, Rice Dream, coconut, soy and oat-based milks are better choices and alternatives for milk, at least for human consumption.

And beware people! Don’t fall for the latest scheme that milk helps in weight loss. The dairy industry is playing on American women’s emotions in the area of obesity and excess weight. If milk helps in weight loss, then why are cows so damn big? The milk should neutralize the growth hormones that are given to cows and prevent them from being so weighty.

The Dangers of Chemotherapy and Radiation

Western medicine’s approach to treating cancer is the cut, slash and burn technique which is insane and diabolical to me. You have to be out of your damn mind to take or undergo chemotherapy

.
Chemotherapy is chemical therapy, but what kind of chemicals? Can you say PETROLEUM? That’s right! Chemotherapy is nothing but rock fuel (petroleum) that comes straight from the Rockefeller pharmaceutical drug cartel. The Rockefellers owns the 15 largest pharmaceutical companies in the world in addition to the American medical industry and cartel. Is it any wonder that the Rockefellers use petroleum drugs in their medical industry and cartel that they also own, considering that they also own and dominate the petroleum industry?

There is also a big connection between the automotive industry and cancer. The temple of the modern method of cancer treatment in the corporate United States is the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Institute in New York where young actress Michelle Thomas (of Family Matters sitcom) was murdered, oops, I mean “died.”

Alfred P. Sloan was president of General Motors Corporation for a number of years. Charles Kettering created the auto ignition, lights, starters and other electrical systems. Now why would individuals such as the Rockefellers, Sloan and Kettering be involved in the medical industry in general and cancer therapy (chemotherapy) in particular? Can you say BIG BUSINESS?

Oh yes, cancer is big business in the United States. The American Cancer Society, launched by the father of advertising, Albert Lasker, brings in hundreds of millions of dollars per year and has been doing so for many years and still they have no cure for cancer in Western/allopathic medicine. In truth, they are not even looking for one because the money is made in keeping people sick, performing surgery, and saturating cancer victims/patients with chemotherapy and radiation.

The Cancer industry knows the American people want a miracle pill that they can just pop into their mouth to knock cancer out (which will NEVER happen). The American people want this because a miracle pill would allow them to keep living lavishly and frivolously while eating their beloved degenerate, denatured and devalued Standard American Diet.

No pill will ever knock out (cure) any disease. A single pill didn’t cause the pathology. It was the thought process (mindset), diet and lifestyle (or death style) of the person that caused the pathology. And yes, consuming various or multiple pills (drugs) plays a role in the development of pathology. Disease is multidimensional and not one dimensional. Unfortunately for Western allopathic medicine, they treat disease in a one dimensional way.

Nearly one million people die from cancer in the United States every year. In all due honesty cancer patients/sufferers are not dying from cancer. They are in effect dying from the cancer treatments - chemotherapy and radiation and the belief that they are going to die (thanks to the unwise doctor telling the cancer patient this).

Folks, chemotherapy is POISON! If you give chemotherapy to a healthy person, the person will become sick. Now how can that which will make a healthy person sick be given to a sick person and expect to make them well? Where in the world is the logic in this?

The human body is NOT made up of chemotherapy (petroleum). Therefore, petroleum is a foreign substance in the body and will cause the body’s defense mechanism to kick in. But in cancerous persons, their bodies are already too weak to resist and fight the foreign substance.

Chemotherapy is so toxic, poisonous, and injurious that it makes the hair fall out. This alone should tell you something. You’re going to treat the cancer but one of the many side effects is that the hair on your head and face is going to fall off and out? This is outright insane and absurd, but yet in still hundreds of thousands of poor, frightened and ignorant individuals unwisely subject themselves to this insidious invasive process and to their great doom and demise.

The other widespread insidious technique used on cancer victims, oops, I mean “patients,” is RADIATION! Now you’ve really got to be out of your damn mind to undergo this treatment. Radiation has no place in the human body, at least not in the body of a healthy and sane person.

Radiation is based upon the toxic element “radium oxide,” a serious poison to the human body. Radiation treatment leads to radium neuritis and myalgia. Radiation is used under the illogical premise of killing the cancerous cells in the body, but how are you going to kill the cancerous cells of the body without harming and killing the good/beneficial cells of the body? Folks, radiation kills ALL cells in an indiscriminate way. This treatment and process literally burns and cooks your flesh and have you ever smelled cooked flesh of a living human being? It STINK something terrible, people! I know from first hand experience (with my beloved father who succumbed to lung cancer in 1994).

And for the males with prostate cancer, the insidious medical industry has a new technique that utilizes “radiation seeds” whereby doctors inject tiny radiation-like seeds in the male reproductive system including the testicles. The result is serious damage to the rectum.

Chemotherapy and radiation treatment is modern-day voluntary TORTURE, plain and simple!

Surgery

You’d have to be seriously out of your mind to undergo surgery while suffering from cancer. Surgery opens the body up and exposes the insides of the body to oxygen which causes cancer cells to spread rapidly and out of control. This is a sure-way ticket to an early and premature death, and not to mention, a very painful death.

Yes, cancer victims/patients experience a pain out of this world. In fact, this pain is so bad, many cancer victims/patients beg for death. I witnessed this with my father back in 1994. He became a skeleton. I remember my Uncle Larry and my Cousin Dennis attempting to get my father out of his bed one day and the man screamed for them to put him down and just leave him alone. The pain in moving him was unbearable.

People, it is a pain out of this world! This is why many cancer victims/patients are given pain killer drugs which do absolutely no justice at all. For most, they just end up praying to God to quickly remove them from their misery.

My poor mother was also one of these individuals, succumbing to pancreatic cancer (the worst cancer you could ever have) in 1999. It was my mother’s death that served as the quintessential catalyst for me to finally get up and start promoting and selling my herbal concoctions to the public. It was fear that prevented my mother from taking herbs during her bout with cancer. She opted for the Western solution (torture) and paid dearly for it.

Allopathic doctors had my mother on all kinds of drugs, mostly painkillers. My little sister reported to me that my mother was throwing up so bad (from the chemotherapy and other drugs) that she was throwing up her bowels. I heard horror stories about my mother and her experience in the hospital with cancer. It was because of all that I heard from my siblings and family members that I consciously chose not to visit her in the hospital during her last and dying days. I didn’t want to remember my mother this way and in that condition like I had done with my father out of familial pressure. When it was time to view my mother’s body at her funeral, before the casket was opened, I got up and walked out of the church and stood outside just looking at the Compton, California neighborhood my mother grew up in. My poor mother was reduced to skin and bones due to cancer.

So as far as surgery is involved, if you have cancer and decide on surgery, all I can say is: Kiss Me Goodnight, because ultimately you’re finished, through, 86ed, terminated, done, etc.

Personally, I’d recommend the new and effective alternative cancer treatment, Poly MVP and hyperbaric oxygen therapy instead of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation.

This article is intended to inform people with diabetes in regards to their diabetic supplies. When I found out that my sister was diagnosed with the disease I started to research more and came across some useful information that might be helpful to others.

Diabetes is the country*s sixth leading cause of death by disease. As you may know it is the leading cause of blindness, kidney disease, heart disease and amputations. Diabetes claims the lives of more than 193,000 Americans each year. Approximately 18.2 million Americans have diabetes, but one-third of those are undiagnosed. And many people that do have diabetes pay for their diabetes supplies. If you have insurance and live in the United States, you may be eligible.

As of May 2004, forty-six states have some type of laws requiring health insurance coverage to include treatment for diabetes. The states not included are Alabama, Idaho, North Dakota and Ohio.

As of 2002, two states, Georgia and Wisconsin passed an expansion of current coverage requirements. In 2003 Hawaii adopted a resolution to clarify its mandate of diabetes education coverage. No new laws were passed during the first four months of 2004.

About 17 million Americans have diabetes today, including about 16 million with Type 2. In addition, at least 16 million more Americans have pre-diabetes — a condition that raises a person*s risk of getting type 2 diabetes. However, a diagnosis of pre-diabetes does not mean that diabetes is inevitable, and the new campaign aims at encouraging people to take modest steps that will reduce their risks. Nationally, diabetes has increased nearly 50 percent in the past 10 years alone, according to CDC estimates.

It is good news that more states are passing laws to further expand health coverage regarding diabetes. If you have diabetes and insurance, most likely you can get your supplies at now cost.

Many cases of diabetes go unnoticed or unchecked before a person or their doctor realizes the inevitable. This disease silently uses destructive high blood sugars to gradually damage the body for months or even years, before symptoms are noted.

This Global Epidemic, according to the US Government has been diagnosed in more than 18 million people, and statistics say that there are over 3500 people diagnosed EVERDAY. That is 1.3
Millions per year and is playing havoc, especially with our young people as well as the older generation because of lifestyle and nutrition choices!

Plus, there are the 60 million or more who are walking around with this deadly disease who doesn’t even realize they have diabetes at this point in their life.

Unfortunately, blood sugar levels can be high without a person knowing anything is wrong. They really don’t think the tiredness they feel is any more than normal fatigue, especially when their diagnosis is for type 2. Many people fail to recognize anything until it is too late and complications have already begun.

This is A REAL DANGER with many who feel they are ok. Some do not even know what the symptoms are for diabetics. They miss or overlook their diagnosis.

Diabetes damage is progressive because of high blood sugar levels. Fortunately, for most, it is not too late, but damage to eyes, kidneys, heart, and nervous system has silently occurred at some level in most that suffer with a diabetic condition.

Millions of people looking for an EASY and SAFE way to LOWER and MAINTAIN their blood sugar at s safe and normal level can now have HOPE with!

There was a time when smoking a cigarette was kind of the “chic” and fashionable thing to do in many social environments. During many years (and still today) there was kind of a social conditioning for smoking. It was like wearing a nice suit or a fashionable hat. Something everyone should “use” if they ever wanted to be included in the “winners” side at the end of the game. Regretfully, the game is over already for many smokers that had to suffer the most common consequence of smoking, i.e., an early death.

The most active ingredient in a cigarette and the one that is involved in causing the heavy addictive characteristics of tobacco is the naturally occurring liquid alkaloid better known as Nicotine.

While there are thousands of chemicals in a single cigarette, including the naturally occurring ones and also those added by cigarette manufacturers, it is one, Nicotine, that produces all the good feelings that draw people back for another cigarette or plug of tobacco, again and again.

In the standard procedures of cigarette manufacturing, producers use tobacco where Nicotine normally makes up about 5 percent of the plant by weight. Just packed cigarettes, contain 8 to 20 milligrams (mg) of nicotine (depending on the brand you prefer to smoke), but only approximately 1 mg is actually absorbed by your body when you smoke a cigarette.

But you do not need industrial amounts of Nicotine in your body in order to become addicted to cigarettes. This minimal quantity of Nicotine that you absorb with each cigarette you smoke is more than enough to make you eternally beg for more, and more again.

Nicotine readily diffuses into your body through the following channels: Skin, Lungs, and the Mucous membranes such as the lining of your nose or your gums. That’s why you will get equally addicted to nicotine even if you just chew and spit tobacco.

The path Nicotine follows into your body starts right into the small blood vessels that line the tissues covering the channels mentioned above. From there, nicotine travels through your bloodstream and then it safely arrives to the brain, and then is delivered to the rest of your body.

Even considering that Nicotine takes a lot of different actions throughout the smokers body (many of them very bad), what it does once it has arrived to the brain is responsible for both the good feelings you get from smoking, as well as the irritability you feel if you try to quit; i.e., the brain becomes addicted. Within 10 to 15 seconds of inhaling the smoke of your cigarette, you will probably be in the throes of nicotine’s effects.

Nicotine initially causes a rapid release of Adrenaline, the “fight-or-flight” hormone. The effects of this hormone are the familiar: Rapid heartbeat, increased blood pressure, and rapid, shallow breathing. All this state of high alertness caused by adrenaline also tells your body to dump some of its glucose stores into your blood.

And if we consider that Nicotine itself may also block the release of the hormone insulin. This all means that nicotine puts people in a hyperglycemic state, having more sugar than usual in their blood torrent. So you become kind of a part-time diabetic with each cigarette you smoke and with the long term consequences this condition brings.

This is not all because over the long haul, as you keep smoking and absorbing nicotine everyday, this can increase the level of the “bad” cholesterol (LDL) in your blood which will in consequence cause great damage to your arteries. And this will make it more likely that over time, and this is not a very long time, you could have a heart attack or a stroke.

The health problems associated with using nicotine-containing products are far worse than any benefits you may feel at the beginning. The average person will be in high risk of; Lung Cancer, Heart Disease, Stroke and Emphysema.

It should be mentioned that many of these illnesses are actually caused by other chemicals in cigarette smoke or in smokeless tobacco products, different to Nicotine. The biggest problem with nicotine is how easily it makes you become dependent on smoking or chewing tobacco. Which also brings up the conclusion that Nicotine-free cigarettes are not much healthier, maybe less addictive but equally dangerous.

Herpes is a virus, as well as an STD (sexually transmitted disease). There are two types of a herpes simplex. A herpes simplex is simply a different type or strain of herpes. The most common herpes simplex is Herpes Simplex 1 (HSV1).

Herpes Simplex 1 affects the oral region, and is the most common type of herpes, this herpes simplex can affect people from a very young age. This simplex usually forms around the lips or mouth, and sometimes can form inside the mouth and on the tongue.

Herpes Simplex 2 is the second type of herpes simplex, and attacks the genital region on both males and females. Males and females will have an outbreak on or around the genitalia, as well as internally in the urethra, or vaginally for females.

What does a herpes simplex outbreak look like?

A herpes outbreak usually consists of a blister, rash, or lesion. An outbreak can last anything from a few days up to several weeks. Once the blisters burst or rupture, the outbreak is over.

Sometimes it is possible to “feel” an outbreak starting, in some people this can feel like a “tingling” sensation. It is possible to treat the outbreak at this stage, sometimes by treating the herpes simplex outbreak at this time, it may stop the outbreak from breaking out completely.

Is a herpes simplex contagious?

The Herpes Simplex virus is highly contagious, and can be easily transmitted to your partner. If you are aware that you have herpes, you should advise your partner. HSV2 or Herpes Simplex 2 (genital herpes) is probably the most contagious, as it is sexually transmitted.

What is in your soap?

Active soap ingredients have always been on the forefront of all beauty, bath and germicidal soaps alike but do you know which substances make up most of the ingredients in your regular soaps? Let’s take a look.

Among the most common soap-producing plants are the following:

Soap Plant (Chlorogalum pomeridianum)
Soapbark (Quillaja saponaria)

Soapberry (Sapindus mukorossi)
Soapwort (Saponaria officinalis)

Roots are the primary source of saponins in most plants while others locate abundance of the same ingredient on the bark. Manual extraction procedure with water produces lather required for an immediate shampoo and body-cleaning needs.

It is obvious that people of the past have managed to use such ingredients in their purest form until they have discovered that other earth and animal-derived material can be used to enhance the efficiency and usability of such products.

Development of Soap Making

Our ancestors have seen the benefits of adding or enhancing the ingredients which makes up the soap they use. It was by accident which they realized that mixing saponin-containing substances with ashes or charcoal derived substances produces a more refined saponified substances as sodium stereate and in some cases, potassium stereate.

In addition, they have found out that the addition of rendered animal and plant fats with the then popular soldium hydroxide solution (which they have known then as an element and not a solution), produces a solidified version of soaps.

Plants are an abundant and popular known source of soap oils - olive oil, coconut oil, canola oil, tallow, palm, olive oil, soybean oil among others .

Modern Soap Ingredients

The introduction of soap technology and as people rallying on to reducing the manufacturing cost of soap production, fat oils such as rendered pork fat or beef fat, derived from animals have overtaken the use the use plant oils plant-derived saponin sources.

But the inclusion of several ingredients in soaps is generally not advantageous for it proved to be irritating to most skin types. Soaps derived from animal fats are no more than different so synthetic materials which makes skin more prone to itching and bacterial attacks.

Plant Oils and Animal Fats

Plant oils used for making soaps are considerably milder and the skin soft. It leaves little residue which usually is dissolved by washing. Moreover, the addition of scents such as perfume adds to the irritating properties of some soap products.

This residue takes in the form of sodium hydroxide, a popular caustic base agent in soap, rayon and papermaking.

Fats and oils derived from plants and animals are good enough to use as soap themselves but they lack the necessary caustic agent for them to produce the lathering effect as seen when using regular bath soaps.

Soap-Making

Lye (sodium hydroxide), is used in the entire saponification process. As treated fats and oils are mixed with lye, it begins to react and form begin the process described above. This process brings about the characteristic thickening and hardening of the liquids and begins assuming a different phase - thickened soft solid mass.
This process is repeated until all lye has reacted with oil so that molding and packing goes next.

Active Ingredients - What does this mean?

Active ingredients are one among the most controversial substances ever to put in a bar soap. Active ingredients determine the applicable usage of a certain soap to a person’s body and skin types.

For example, anti-bacterial soaps have triclosan and triclocarban as its active agent which inhibits the growth of specific type of bacteria (gram-positive).

In the same manner as BHT (Butylated Hydroxytoluene) anti-oxidants and PEG-6 methyl ether sometimes found in detergents and added to soaps sometimes do more harm than good so it is best to check out for some of these substances.

You can find soaps made without petroleum or animal products
if you have sensitive skin, allergies or are interested in
natural products that are environmentally friendly.
