In 2001, after comparing over 250 studies and 150 drugs, a team at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center still has no clue as to how to successfully treat acne. With this lineup of intelligence failing to cure acne, how can any average Jane expect to free herself from a zit affliction? Simple; crack the code of your zits.

An effective acne treatment has remained elusive because the deeper meanings behind the information-packed pimples are too often neglected or unexamined, until now.

“Listen to the messages of your zits”, proclaims Naweko San-Joyz, author of Acne Messages: Crack the code of your zits and say goodbye to acne. Zits are smart and full of knowledge about you and your lifestyle. Those pimples on your face act as little messengers from the body to suggest beneficial changes to your lifestyle and areas of your life to which you should pay more attention.

Acne Messages guides the exacerbated acne sufferer to find out exactly what causes their unique case of acne. This is the shortcoming of most acne prescriptions and creams; they treat acne as a target as opposed to probing into what emotional, physical, psychological and or nutritional needs set off the acne trigger.

Once you decode you zit, the zit will reveal a wealth of practical information about you. For example, how well you cope with stress, whether or not your specific nutritional needs are being met, if your personal goals are being met, if your organs are functioning at optimum levels, and whether or not your self esteem is balanced are just of sample of the revelations communicated by zits. Using ancient wisdom and modern science San-Joyz helps people with acne pinpoint the root cause of their unique case of acne.

Acne Messages is designed for people with acne who can find no relief with drugs, special diets, or creams alone.

Do you let your zits tell you at least these five things about yourself before you pop it, slather it with creams, or ingest some acne wonder drug? If not, this could be why you are one of the 17 million people in the United States still coping with acne.

Read Acne Messages, decode the messages of your zits and say goodbye to acne. You can begin your own Acne Messages just $14.99 plus shipping and handling. Available at Noixia.com and AMAZON.com.

Acne rosacea is a skin condition characterized by reddish discoloration of the facial skin, particularly in the area of the cheeks, forehead and the nose. It is usually found in fair skinned adults, and is often mistaken for acne. The tiny blood vessels under the skin dilate and give the appearance of “blushing”. While pimples may occur with acne rosacea there are no whiteheads or blackheads. At first the redness may come and go, but if untreated it will continue to worsen, with pimples and permanent flushing of the face. Extreme cases of acne rosacea that have not been treated can lead to disfigurement of the nose and puffy cheeks. Cosmetic surgery is the only way to repair this severe damage. Acne rosacea may also cause a gritty feeling in the eyes that, if not treated, can lead to impaired vision.

Acne rosacea can occur in men or women. Women tend to get acne rosacea more often than men, but men have more severe symptoms than do women.

Causes of Acne Rosacea

One of the most frustrating things about acne rosacea is that there is no known cause. There are many suggestion as to the origins of rosacea such as:

- Emotional factors that cause blushing or flushing of the face may trigger acne rosacea.
- Changes in the weather may cause acne rosacea to occur.
- Sun exposure generally worsens the condition.
- Mites or certain bacteria may cause the initial outbreaks of acne rosacea.
- Some medications for heart conditions that are used a vasodilator may bring about the onset of acne rosacea.

Treatments Available

It is important to remember that acne rosacea is not the same as teenage acne, and will not respond to over the counter acne treatments. These treatments are more likely to further irritate the skin and cause a worsening of the condition.

The most successful treatment of acne rosacea includes:

- A strong oral antibiotic that gradually decreases to a maintenance level.
- A topical cream that is applied regularly to the affected area. This cream usually will contain antibiotics in conjunction with cortisone or a prescription acne mediation.

Things to avoid/moderate

- Minimize skin exposure to the sun.

- Avoid or minimize smoking
- Moderate alcohol consumption
- Avoid spicy foods

As promised - you now know what acne rosacea is, what causes this condition and how it can be treated/controlled.

Glyconutrients were virtually unknown as little as 10 years ago. The whole group of carbohydrates and saccharides was largely neglected. With the advent of Glycobiology scientists have since come to learn an increasing amount about these vital nutrients.

Dr McAnalley did some of the first research with Glyconutrients in 1995. He developed and filed patents for Glyconutrient formulas in 1996. Scientists began to realize the importance of polysaccharides and Glyconutrients in the body and how taking supplements with these nutrients can be very beneficial to your health.

He and his research staff started their work when they isolated and researched acemannan from the Aloe Vera, plant. Aloe polymannose (acemannan) is a polysaccharide that is nontoxic. Many of the health benefits from this ancient healing plant can be credited to this natural polysaccharide. Since that time Dr McAnalley has invented over 66 patented products. He is a renowned speaker and held many prominent positions.

Because of his pioneer work on Polysaccharides and Glyconutrients a whole new research is being conducted into these nutrients. This is called Glycobiology (the study of Glyconutrients) Scientists are discovering more and more about the uses of these substances and their important functions in the body.

Having neglected the study of carbohydrates for so long scientists are just now taking steps to understand the complex make up of this class of foods. As they dig deeper they are uncovering the mysteries of the body functions and how the cells actually communicate with each other. They are also discovering the body’s natural healing mechanisms and how this can be improved with these vital nutrients.

Scientists are also studying the pharmacokinetics of these substances. This is the study of how these Glyconutrients, polysaccharides, disaccharides and monosaccharide absorb, excrete, effect metabolism and react with the body.

With this Glycobiology research scientists can uncover all the different uses these nutrient have and unlock the different chemical compounds found within the complex carbohydrate family of foods. As they unlock the compounds and chains of saccharides they will get more insight into these substances and see how they can improve our health.

Dr McAnalley’s long years of work have paved the way for other scientists and research students to continue in their quest for more information about the carbohydrate family of foods (polysaccharides, and Glyconutrients). As they continue to learn more we shall see more information on how we can improve our health with these vital nutrients.

Many nutritional supplements are being developed for these Glyconutrients. One of the most well known is Ambrotose. This supplement was developed by Mannatech and provides all the components required for your body to manufacture Glyconutrients. This is useful to you, as the foods we eat today do not have enough of this vital nutrient for our bodies to maintain a good state of health. When you take these supplements you can help your body heal and maintain its health and improve your lifestyle by being the healthy person you should be.

Phosphorus was isolated as a specific and separate element in 1669 by a German alchemist named Hennig Brand. An integral part of life and health, this mineral element is essential to the structure and function of the body.

The mineral phosphorus is found in all living cells. It is best known for its role in the creation of bones and teeth. It helps the body to absorb and make use of calcium and together with the mineral magnesium, Vitamin D and Vitamin C, it serves in the formation of the hard surfaces of the bones and teeth.

Phosphorus role in the muscular system is of great importance for it helps the heart in beating strongly and steadily. It is specifically associated with the smooth and regular contraction of the body’s muscles as well as with the health of the nerves and their ability to communicate. In addition to being an important facet in the nerves of the body, phosphorus also is essential to the correct formation of cell membranes and the proper creation of genetic material.

Phosphorus works with the vitamins that make up a powerful group most popularly known as the Vitamin B complex in the transformation of nutrients to energy. In fact, thiamin, or Vitamin B1, cannot be utilized by the body without the presence of this mineral which means that phosphorus also has a role in the health of the digestive system as well as in that of the nervous system. It also serves in the regulation of kidney function and helps to keep the body’s PH levels where they should be. Iodine and zinc, which both play an important role in the maturation and function of the reproductive system need phosphorus in order to be properly utilized by the body.

Because of its role in the health and functioning of so many of the body’s most important systems, a deficiency in phosphorus can have a broad range of negative effects on the health of mind and body. Symptoms of phosphorus deficiency include retarded growth in children, poor formation of teeth and bones which can lead to bone pain and fragility, joint stiffness and pain, irregular breathing patterns, weight problems, weakness and numbness of limbs. Mental symptoms include anxiety, fearfulness, irritability and anorexia.

Dedicated attention to proper nutrition is one of the most important things you can do for the overall health and well being of your mind and body. The functioning of the body and the mind, including cognitive function and emotional stability, is based upon numerous chemical reactions and interaction in the body. These chemicals depend a great deal on the nutrients you consume and the balance of these many chemicals and substances is very delicate. Optimum performance of body and mind depends on this balance being maintained.

To be sure that your body gets the proper amount of daily phosphorus it needs to function properly, it is therefore essential to consult with a licensed nutritionalist or dietician to help you in mapping out your daily diet. Nutritional supplements can also provide a safe and reliable means of ensuring that this delicate balance is maintained and that the body has the nutrients it needs to carryout the many complex chemical functions that result in the health and proper functioning of the body and the mind.

If you think that smoking is a harmless little hobby and all the people harping on you to quit are overreactors, think again. Smoking is the number ONE preventable cause of premature death and morbidity in America. There is nothing more dangerous you can be doing to your health. And it isn’t just bad for you, smoking around your kids can cause severe health complications down the road and cause serious damage while their lungs and other vital organs are developing. All of this information is well documented by the AMA, American Lung and Heart Associations, and the American Cancer Society.

Background On the Problem Of Smoking

Cigarette smoking has been identified as the most important source of preventable morbidity and premature mortality worldwide. Smoking is responsible for approximately one in five deaths in the United States. From 1995 to 1999, smoking killed over 440,000 people in the United States each year. This includes an estimated 264,087 male and 178,311 female deaths annually. Among adults, most smoking attributable deaths were from lung cancer (124,813), coronary heart disease (81,976) and chronic airway obstruction (64,735).

Excluding adult deaths from exposure to secondhand smoke, adult males and females lost an average of 13.2 and 14.5 years of life respectively, due to smoking. If current tobacco use patterns persist in the United States, an estimated 6.4 million children (8,830 per 100,000) will die prematurely from a smoking-related disease. Smoking costs the economy over $150 billion in annual health care costs and lost productivity, including $81.9 billion in mortality-related productivity losses and $75.5 billion in excess medical expenditures. It is directly responsible for 87 percent of lung cancer cases and causes most cases of emphysema and chronic bronchitis.

Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of death in the United States. It is estimated that as many as 30% of deaths from cardiovascular disease are a result of tobacco use. In 2001, approximately 65,000 women died of lung cancer. 85,000 men die each year from smoking related cancers of the trachea, lung and bronchus. These statistics are not encouraging, and indicate that smoking has a far more negative impact on the health of Americans and the strength of our economy than most people are aware of. These statistics alone should make people stop smoking, but unfortunately many people relapse back into the habit.

In 2000, more than 70% of smokers wanted to quit, and 41% tried for at least a day. Many smokers report making 8-11 attempts before quitting for good. With a large majority of smokers desiring to quit, it is imperative that they are given the tools and support they need to increase their chances of being successful.

Your health and nutrition center - Vitamins Diary.

Olivia Harding for www.vitaminsdiary.com Descriptions and information on various vitamins, amino acids, minerals, herbs and nutritional supplements and their possible uses.

Milk is highly underrated. Experts say, America finds itself in a calcium crisis today because consumers aren’t drinking enough milk.

Milk is highly overrated. Experts say,If you really want to play it safe, you may decide to join the growing number of Americans who are eliminating dairy products from their diets altogether.

Which one of those statements is true? If you follow health and fitness news at all, you’ve probably heard about the debate over milk and its inclusion in our diet. There is a difference of opinion about the values and dangers of milk in our diet. Where did I find these opposing quotes?

The first statement is from whymilk.com, a website promoting the benefits of milk. If you look at the bottom of the home page, you will find that it is sponsored by an entity comprised of America’s milk processors.

That fact does not validate nor negate the content and statements on the website about milk. It does, however, make me think. It gives me a filter through which to view and analyze the statements made by the website. In other words, I now know the website’s bias.

The second statement is in an article posted on notmilk.com, a website dedicated to spreading the news about the dangers of milk. How did I find these websites?

Of course, I turned to one of the major search engines. Placing the word milk in the rectangular box, I pressed Enter, and off went the search engine’s spiders all over the web, searching frantically, hungry for data and content. What they brought back is interesting.

The two quotes at the beginning of this article are from the two websites noted above. The two websites noted above are,respectively, Result #1 and Result #2 from the major search engine as of the moment I am writing these words.

What’s the point? The web is a forum of different ideas, conflicting agendas, and polar opposites. Sometimes you have to do some homework to really find out what a website is all about.

The first website I browsed made the point pretty easy to understand. Examine, however, the second website. It is a little more difficult to ferret out my point.Search Result # 1 is from a website with a specific agenda, namely, the promotion of milk as a benefit to our health. At least that is the stated, obvious agenda.

The first website, whymilk.com, is sponsored by America’s milk processors. Now I know what the underlying agenda is for that website: sell more milk and dispel the notion that milk is not a part of good nutrition and a balanced diet.

Now there’s nothing wrong with that as long as the consumer knows about the underlying agenda or, at the least, can find out about it through a rather cursory perusal of the website.

Armed with that information, we can filter all of the content and advertisements we see from that website. In other words, we will keep in the back of our mind the entire time we are nosing around in the whymilk website the notion that they are trying to get us to buy milk. Fair enough.

Search Result #2 is also from a website with an agenda thatis a little more complicated. It is here where the consumer might make some decisions for the wrong reasons and based upon incorrect assumptions.

Notmilk.com is a website dedicated to evangelizing lactose saturated sinners who drink milk and bring them into the light of salvation. That salvation comes when each adherent realizes the evils of milk, rejects said evils, and turns from them unalterably, wholeheartedly, and irrevocably. Then, and only then, will you have turned from your wicked lactose laden life and be free of the Dairy Devil.

Now I have no reason to question or affirm this website’s sincerity in believing that milk is not good for human consumption. What does make me stop and think, however, is the ad for a device called a SoyToy right on the homepage.

With this device you can make fresh and delicious soy milk from dried beans in only twenty-five minutes at just four cents per quart. And it’s yours for only $159.00 (plus shipping and handling). Hmmmm. Are you beginning to get the point?

What is really interesting is that if you look hard enough you find that the owner of the amazing SoyToy is EVS Holding Company. This is without a doubt one of the most laughable things I have seen in awhile. Not that it’s that uncommon.

No, it’s because it is so common that it is laughable.While promoting your good health through the SoyToy found on the notmilk.com website, the same entity is the holding company for Arrowhead Smokes. There three major products? Cigarettes… Cigars… and Snuff. Yes, you read correctly-snuff! Now are you getting the point?

If not, here’s the Online Help button.

When it comes to your health, doesn’t it make sense to rely on the professionals to help you make choices about good nutrition, diet, and healthy weight loss?

Consult your physician or medical practitioner about milk or about anything that has to do with altering your diet significantly. He or she is a trained medical professional who, in most circumstances, is only trying to sell you his or her service by being the best medical professional they can be!

Now, I’m not expecting anyone to believe that doctors don’t give one product a little push over an equally effective product from time to time. They sometimes do a little “affiliate advertising” of their own in a roundabout sort of way.

But how long has it been since your physician offered you, along with your annual exam, a chance to make soy milk from dried beans in less than twenty-five minutes? And at such an “easy on the wallet” price of $159.00 (plus shipping and handling). Hmmmm.

And now surely there are those adept ones reading this who are now wondering just what is my angle? Where am I coming from?

I have a website too, along with my business partner, Michael Smith, MD. It’s called Diet Basics, and you’ll find it at www.weight-loss-professional.com. We offer really up to date content and tools to assist in healthy weight loss. Most of what we promote is absolutely free. But NEVER FORGETthis: I’m still going to try and sell you something!. And that’s true of almost every website you’ll encounter.

And that is absolutely fine. It’s absolutely fine as long as we as consumers have the opportunity to get to the site’s story behind the story. That is particularly important when it comes to your health.

So what’s the point? It does not matter whether it’s pro-milk.com, anti-milk.com, or whocaresaboutmilk?.com

It doesn’t even matter if it is my website you are surfing. Find out who has created the site, and why they created it before you make any decisions based on that site’s advice.

Dig a little! Find out just who sponsors the website, what they are saying and what they are promoting. Find out also, and perhaps more importantly, what they are NOT saying or promoting–that’s the story behind the story.

And when it comes to your health, consult with your physician. Know the facts. Then you will be able to make sound decisions and choices regarding nutrition and balanced diet.

And by the way, I’ve been meaning to ask you…”Got Soy?”

Cheers to your health!
