Evening primrose oil for Eczema, Diabetes, Menstrual Disorders, and Joint Pains 2007-11-27 10:59:00 This supplement is a boon for women who experience the trauma of menstrual cramps every month. It is known by its name because its light yellow flowers open at dusk. The oil of evening primrose is very rich in polysaturated comega-6 fatty acids, which are necessary fatty acids that body needs to complete numerous functions including insulin absorption, regulating the heart, and regulating mood. The body does not manufacture these fatty acids on its own, so they have to be taken as food or food supplements. Aside from the omega-6 fatty acids, evening primrose oil has linoleic acid and gamma-linolenic acid (“GLA”). Both of these acids are very important and very beneficial to general well-being. GLA accounts for most of the supplement's therapeutic effects. Eczema
: One of the leading uses of evening primrose oil is to treat eczema, an allergic skin condition that may develop if the body has trouble converting fats derived from food into GLA. In a study of 60 people with eczema GLA Read more:Diabetes

Understanding your Children 2007-11-15 21:54:00 Understanding children is the point of discusssion for today parents not knowing when they will behave this way or that way and why? Why children cry and whether to agree to all their demands. Morever in case of both working parents and nuclear families less time is given to the child whereas at least in a joint family child gets the attention of grandparents or uncles and aunts. Sometimes the child is deprived of his innocent smile, play and parents love. No matter child parenting is a big task but can be handled by understanding your children. Some tips:1.

Daily Routine of a Healthy Person 2007-11-15 09:26:00 Good Health is key to happiness. Health is wealth. Everybody knows it but and want to be healthy. But how many are healthy? Not many. Only those are healthy who eat right at the right time i.e., maintain a regular routine and the body clock adjusts according to it and this can be found universally. A minor change in your diet, sleep, exercise or other daily plans can sometimes cause imbalance in your body leading to irritation, disturbed sleep, anger, loss of appetite, or constipation making you dull, unhappy, and lethargic at your work place. Ill health or not so good health or little disturbances affects one's happiness, peace of mind at home and work.

Water is medicine 2007-11-10 11:51:00 Some people say that one should drink this much water or drink only when thirsty. Much of our body is made up of water. Not drinking enough water will leave us under-hydrated or even dehydrated. India is a tropical country so the body should be hydrated as dehydration sometimes leads to severe health hazards. But during rainy season and humid temperatures drinking too much water makes you run for the small room only. Know your body needs and go for water.My husband often gets cramps if water intake is reduced due to busy office hours or during travel. No medicine, just drinking 3-4 glasses corrects the problem. The human body is about 70 percent water and cannot function properly without enough water every day.My 2 year old son gets constipation if he drinks less water and no laxatives, syrups required just plain filtered water rectifies the problem. Infact water helps alleviate constipation. It is the best detox agent.What less intake of water can do?# Many people don't drink enough
Nutritional Supplements - Yes or No 2007-12-05 14:54:00 Is it necessary to take supplements?Won't my regular diet give me full nutrition?If you are basically healthy, is there any advantage in taking supplements regularly?Supplements include just vitamins and minerals or anything else?Do supplements have healing power?If you develop a health disorder or ailment, can you expect supplements to offer any help?Can conventional medicine be avoided completely if herbs are used for certain health problems?These are some of the questions that people have who don't know much or are skeptical about nutritional supplements.They believe in conventional medicine only. Of course, multivitamin and multimineral supplements have been taken since 50 years or more by many and mostly by aged people. Herbal supplements were less known and less taken whereas some herbs have the capacity to cure chronic ailments like cancer too.Even doctors and nurses who practice conventional medicine may be sceptical about alternative therapies but there is evidence that many
The changing view of dietary supplements 2007-12-05 11:14:00 Today available nutritional supplements
or dietary supplements are not new. They encompass known substances like vitamins, minerals and herbs. Vitamins have been used in pill form for more than 50 years. The different kind of herbs found in different geographical areas have long been used in the kitchen and the sick room. Most of them were one-a-day formulas and herbal remedies either had to be concoted at home or bought in out-of-the-way health-food shops. Public Awareness: Today people are more health concious. So many people are willing to try supplements. This indicates that a major change in health care has brought herbal and nutritional medicine closer to conventional medicine. Traditionally doctors have been skeptical of these alternate medicines and remedies. But this is changing. Today doctors world over are willing to learn about complementary treatments and are open to explore new methods of healing. This significant trend has led to an dramatic increase in the use of vitami

Yoga Postures - Suryanamaskara 2007-12-20 11:46:00 I feel suryanamaskara is easy to do as this yoga exercise can be done with ease by all ages and this being a multi asana exercise will give benefits of all the asanas that come under suryanamaskara.Yoga has been gaining immense popularity due to the benefits it provides. But yoga asanas have to be done in a correct way under the guidance of a yoga expert. If yoga postures are not done in a proper way it may harm the body as some are easy asanas while others are difficult to do.I regularly do suryanamaskara as i think it is simple and all the yogic postures are easy to do. I feel energetic, refreshed and flexible after doing it. It just takes 15-17 minutes for me if I do it 4 times. That is quite time saving.Suryanamaskara is in itself a complete exercise for meditation, spiritual consciousness by indulging in various practices of asanas and pranayama. It has a direct vitalizing effect on the body.The best hour for the practice of this asana is obviously the sunrise time but sunset time Read more:Postures
