honey health 300x200 Why You Should Ditch Sugar In Favor of HoneyWhile honey and sugar share similar degrees of sweetness, the differences in the way our bodies respond to them are profound.

Technically, honey and sugar (sucrose) both exist because they are food for their respective species.

In the case of sugarcane, a member of the the grass family (Poaceae) which includes wheat, maize and rice, sucrose provides energy for its leaves and is an easily transportable source of energy for other parts of the plant, such as the root, that do not produce their own energy.

spiritual-lifeBy Caroline Aguiar

Yesterday, after having read “Communications With My Higher Self”, which mentioned my latest tussle with fear, my good friend Annette D. sent me a lovely email loaded with encouragement.

She told me about something she heard in the Speaking With Self Recordings which went like this:  Say to your Higher Self, “Be here now, now be here. Be me now. Be more of me now than you were yesterday.  Be more of me tomorrow than you are today. Let me see things from your eyes, as you have always seen things through my eyes.”

I did this, and when I read it, my Higher Self sent me a big “Yes”. I didn’t think about it afterwards, and I went on with my day as usual.

This morning during meditation time, I felt My Higher Self’s energy around me again, and she encouraged me to go deep into my heart, which is what I’ve been working on with her.  I physcially felt my consciousness move inside my body, and today, I saw myself looking out through my own eyes.  My meditation place has a large closet door in front of me made of glass so I can see my reflection. As I looked out through my eyes while in the meditative state, I saw my reflection in the mirror had completely changed.

Although the results may not be shocking to everyone, many people on the planet are just starting to wake up to the tremendous medicinal benefits that cannabis has to offer. A recent study conducted by the Institute of Molecular Psychiatry at the University of Bonn in Germany just discovered that the activation of the brain’s cannabinoid system triggers the release of antioxidants that act as a cleansing mechanism. This process is known to remove damaged cells and improve the efficiency of mitochondria. Mitochondria is the energy sources that powers cells. The study was published in the Philosophical Transactions of The Royal Society, B (1).

Expressing concern over employees’ health has backfired on the world’s leading fast food producer, McDonald’s. Its own employee resources website recommended workers to avoid burgers and fries whenever possible due to health risks.

The McResource site, notorious for giving advice on how to make ends meet working for $7.25 an hour at McDonald’s, has cooked up another gem: the folks preparing and serving McDonald’s food should actually avoid eating it themselves – because it is unhealthy.

(NaturalNews) The Christmas holidays are just around the corner, and peppermint does contribute to the festivities in its own way, as some of you will likely not be able to resist the temptation of indulging in candy canes. It has long been added to various products, such as candies, ice creams, gum, cakes and toothpaste, because of its refreshing and pleasing taste and smell. The sugar and invasive chemicals aside, peppermint on its own has garnered a well-deserved reputation for its ability to treat numerous abdominal problems such as cramping and pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, stomach cancer, irritable bowel syndrome and gallbladder disease. While most of its known benefits deal with stomach and digestive issues, some of the latest research now suggests that it may also be of assistance to curb cravings, ease tension headaches, boost concentration and even enhance exercise performance.

Vitamin D deficiency is a pandemic in the United States, but many Americans, including physicians, are not aware that they may be lacking this important nutrient. 

Despite its name, vitamin D is not a regular vitamin. It's actually a steroid hormone that you get primarily from either sun exposure or supplementation, and its ability to influence genetic expression that produces many of its wide-ranging health benefits.

How Potatoes can Help you Survive Food Shortages and Boost Your Health

potatoe superfood 263x166 How Potatoes can Help you Survive Food Shortages and Boost Your HealthExcluding French fries and potato chips, some health experts consider potatoes superfoods. Unfortunately, the stigma of spuds remains; their health promoting and nutritional aspects are mostly unknown, buried in misinformation and partial facts that scare most consumers away.

There are rising concerns about potential food shortages in this free fall economy. The fact that nutritionally dense potatoes store well and are easy to grow year around in small lots, even flower boxes, puts potatoes high on the survivalist list.

Potatoes are a high source of potassium, even more than bananas, and are rich in other minerals too. They are also rich in Vitamin C and B6. Agricultural Research Service plant geneticist Roy Navarre has identified 60 different kinds of phytochemicals in the skins and flesh of a wide variety of potatoes. Some potato phenolic levels rival those of broccoli and spinach. Others contain high amounts of folic acid, quercetin, and kukoamines. Only one other food contains all three of those compounds – gogi berries. Potatoes are antioxidant dense as well.

Probiotics shown to dramatically heal food sensitivities

(NaturalNews) For those who are familiar with the GAPS diet, rebuilding the gut is of paramount importance. After all, the gut isn't only involved in properly absorbing nutrients to keep us fit - it's the foundation for a strong nervous system and immunity as well. When the gut is in top form, food sensitivities and illnesses have a harder time taking root. Interestingly, research has shown that probiotics can also heal the gut to such a point that food intolerance and allergies disappear.

One particular area of interest (for the 7.8 million Americans who struggle with food intolerance and allergies) is that symptoms often vanish when the gut is properly populated with probiotics. Several studies have found that these beneficial microorganisms not only enhance the immune system but also reduce inflammation associated with allergic reactions.
