The Cholesterol Myths that May be Harming Your Health


Quinoa

Although not a common item in most kitchens today, quinoa is an amino acid-rich (protein) seed that has a fluffy, creamy, slightly crunchy texture and a somewhat nutty flavor when cooked. Quinoa is available in your local health food stores throughout the year.

Most commonly considered a grain, quinoa is actually a relative of leafy green vegetables like spinach and Swiss chard. It is a recently rediscovered ancient "grain" once considered "the gold of the Incas."

The New Epidemic Sweeping Across America (and it's Not a Disease)

It's pharmaceutical drugs. 

Death by medicine is a 21st-century epidemic, and America's "war on drugs" is clearly directed at the wrong enemy!

Prescription drugs are now killing far more people than illegal drugs, and while most major causes of preventable deaths are declining, those from prescription drug use are increasing, an analysis of recently released data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) by the Los Angeles Times revealed.



What to do if you want to get off of Pharmaceutical Drugs (such as xanax, lexapro, etc) 

Sometimes prescription drugs can be addictive.   One of the things that these type of drugs do is unbalance the hormonal system.  They effect the pituitary gland (the master gland of the body).  When this happens, and you try to get off of it, the system is gain unbalanced and the symptoms can mimick the symptoms you were given the drug for (anxiety, depression, etc. etc).   Here is the program we endorse which has been known to get thousands off of drugs when they have had problems   The Road Back

You can get a free copy of the book by going to this site and clicking on the link at the left The Road Back   The site also has some of the nutrients used in the program and you can see those product on this same page.  They do make an excellent product and their supplements can be used for many other body problems as well.
