What is Health?

What is Health?


What is Health? According to Dorland's Medical Dictionary; "Health is having all your parts, functioning at 100%, all of the time. In other words:  Health = Parts + Function + Time.

 We don't replace parts. We can't do anything about time past. That leaves FUNCTION.  Health is proper function -  and we can do something about that. When we improve function, even if you don't have all your parts, you can be as healthy as possible.

 Here's how it works; because health, and all body functions are controlled by your nervous system, an interference with nerve function will impair normal organ and body function. That's not healthy. Only when your nervous system is functioning properly, can you function properly and stay healthy. Proper function is the most basic requirement for health and longevity.


Nerve malfunction, is caused by abnormal positions or misalignment of the vertebrae (subluxations), but can be corrected with chiropractic care. The chiropractic adjustment allows the nervous system to function properly again, enabling the body to do what it does naturally: self-regulate and self-heal through its own natural recuperative powers. That is why chiropractic can impact all health issues, not just back and neck pain. Most people still believe that 'no symptoms' means they are healthy. However, when malfunction of the body occurs, the symptom is the last thing to arrive and the first thing to leave. Symptoms only happen when the body finally loses its ability to adapt to the on-going malfunction. (The first symptom of heart disease, in 40% of the cases, is a severe or fatal heart attack). For too long, society’s emphasis has been on the removal of symptoms rather than providing the natural conditions for health so the body can function as close to 100% as possible.

Chiropractic doctors are the only health professionals specifically educated and trained in the location and correction of the vertebral subluxation. Chiropractic care is a natural, preventative, and non-invasive form of health care. It is based on the body's inherent ability to heal itself when the proper conditions of health are provided. This fundamental approach to wellness, without drugs or surgery, reflects a changing attitude about health care today.

Health can be regained and maintained when you shift the emphasis toward creating optimum function, rather than simply masking symptoms.

The Magic of Cucumbers

Cucumbers... I didn't know this...
WOW!!! WHAT A LITTLE GEM THE CUCUMBER IS.
I WILL LOOK AT IT DIFFERENTLY NOW.

Image

1. Cucumbers contain most of the vitamins you need
Every day, just one cucumber contains Vitamin
B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin
B6, Folic Acid, Vitamin C, Calcium, Iron,
Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium and Zinc.

2. Feeling tired in the afternoon,
Put down the caffeinated soda and pick up a
Cucumber. Cucumbers are a good source of B
Vitamins and Carbohydrates that can provide that
Quick pick-me-up that can last for Hours.

3. Tired of your bathroom mirror
Fogging up after a shower? Try rubbing a
Cucumber slice along the mirror, it will
Eliminate the fog and provide a soothing,
Spa-like fragrance.

4. Are grubs and Slugs ruining your planting beds?
Place a few Slices in a small pie tin and your garden will
Be free of pests all season long. The chemicals
In the cucumber react with the aluminum to give
Off a scent undetectable to humans but drive
Garden pests crazy and make them flee the Area.

5 Looking for a Fast and easy way to remove cellulite before
Going out or to the pool? Try rubbing a slice or
Two of cucumbers along your problem area for a
Few minutes, the phytochemicals in the cucumber
Cause the collagen in your skin to tighten,
Firming up the outer layer and reducing the
Visibility of cellulite Works great on wrinkles
Too!!!

6.. Want to avoid a hangover or
Terrible headache? Eat a few cucumber slices
Before going to bed and wake up refreshed and
Headache free. Cucumbers contain enough sugar, B
Vitamins and electrolytes to replenish essential
Nutrients the body lost, keeping everything in
Equilibrium, avoiding both a hangover and
Headache!!

7. Looking to fight off that
Afternoon or evening snacking binge? Cucumbers
Have been used for centuries and often used by
European trappers, traders and explores for
Quick meals to thwart off starvation.

8.
Have an important meeting or job interview and
You realize that you don't have enough time to
Polish your shoes? Rub a freshly cut cucumber
Over the shoe, its chemicals will provide a
Quick and durable shine that not only looks
Great but also repels Water.

9. Out of WD 40 and need to fix a squeaky hinge?
Take a
Cucumber slice and rub it along the problematic
Hinge, and voila, the squeak is gone!

10.
Stressed out and don't have time for massage,
Facial or visit to the spa? Cut up an entire
Cucumber and place it in a boiling pot of water,
The chemicals and nutrients from the cucumber
Will react with the boiling water and be
Released in the steam, creating a soothing,
Relaxing aroma that has been shown to reduce
Stress in new mothers and college students
During final exams.

11. Just finish a Business lunch and realize you don't have gum or Mints?
Take a slice of cucumber and press it to
The roof of your mouth with your tongue for 30
Seconds to eliminate bad breath, the
Phytochemcials will kill the bacteria in your
Mouth responsible for causing bad Breath.

12. Looking for a 'green' way to
Clean your faucets, sinks or stainless steel?
Take a slice of cucumber and rub it on the
Surface you want to clean, not only will it
Remove years of tarnish and bring back the
Shine, but is won't leave streaks and won't harm
You fingers or fingernails while you Clean.

13. Using a
Pen and made a mistake? Take the outside of the
Cucumber and slowly use it to erase the pen
Writing, also works great on crayons and markers
That the kids have used to decorate the Walls!!

Pass this along to everybody you
Know who is looking for better and safer ways to
Solve life's everyday Problems..

Sunscreens- are they really safe?

Remember to add ewg@ewg.org to your contact list.


Dear MarlaR2656@aol.com,

Does your sunscreen actually protect your family? Or are the claims just marketing hype?

Only a quarter of the more than 800 beach and sports sunscreens analyzed by Environmental Working Group for our 2012 Sunscreen Guide meet our standards for effectiveness and safety. But we're happy to report that's actually progress! The sunscreen industry is taking notice. This time last year we could only recommend 20 percent of the sun protection products we evaluated, and in 2010 it was even worse: just 1-in-12.

You demanded that the market offer you better options, and sunscreen makers listened. To keep up the momentum, we need you to keep demanding improved sunscreens. One-in-four is better than last year, but it's not good enough for your family.

A quarter of this year's products still contain vitamin A ingredients that accelerate the growth of skin tumors and lesions on sun-exposed skin, according to recent government studies. Also, 56 of the products we reviewed had no active ingredients that protect against the sun's damaging UVA rays. And the industry continues to load store shelves with sunscreens that claim misleading, sky-high SPF ratings that may protect against sunburn-causing UVB rays but leave skin vulnerable to UVA.

Sort through the sunscreen noise - click here for EWG's 2012 Sunscreen Guide.

You'll find:

We hope our research helps your family enjoy the sun safely this summer.

Sincerely,

Ken Cook
President, Environmental Working Group

P.S. Has EWG helped you pick a safer sunscreen? EWG's researchers rated more than 1,800 products because we want you to have the information you need to make smart choices. Work like this is costly, and we need your help to keep it up. Donate just $5 today - less than a bottle of sunscreen - and we'll send you a free Guide to Safer Sunscreens to say thank you. Click here to donate.

The Environmental Working Group is a non-profit, non-partisan research organization dedicated to using the power of information to protect human health and the environment. The EWG Action Fund is a legislative advocacy organization that uses EWG research to promote healthy and sustainable policies.
