Fibroid Tumor Symptoms
- What Are Leading Symptoms Of Fibroid Tumors?
Fibroid tumor symptoms are often blamed on other causes.
Sometimes, the symptoms of fibroid tumors are not even
noticed, while other times the quality of life is affected
every day. Fibroid tumors are non-cancerous growths that
form in the uterus. Fibroid tumors often grow in groups,
and they can be as small as a pea or as large as an egg
or even a grapefruit.
Understanding
Gastric Bypass Surgery
Gastric Bypass Surgery is growing in popularity. It is
important that anyone who is considering this type of
surgery to insure that they are ready for both the physical
stresses of it as well as the mental challenge it presents.
Gastric bypass surgery is a way for doctors to help treat
morbid obesity. For those individuals who have serious
health problems that are brought on or made worse by their
weight, this surgery can be the difference in life and
death. Here are some details and things to keep in mind
when considering gastric bypass surgery.
Detox
- Does it Improve Our Skin?
The answer is yes, especially if you have problem skin.
The skin is one of the body's main organs and can eliminate
around 10% of all waste from the body. It does this mainly
through sweating, we loose moisture through the skin 24/7
even though we're not aware of it. It's a natural process
and of course your facial skin is included in this.
Does
Peyronie’s disease cause Erectile Dysfunction?
A formation of hardened tissue in the penis, which causes
pain, distortion and curvature during erection, indicates
symptoms of the Peyronie’s disease. The plaque develops
on the upper or lower side of the penis in layers containing
erectile tissue. It begins as a localized inflammation
and can develop into a hardened scar. In many cases, curves
and pains result in erectile dysfunction. If there are
several areas of plaque incomplete erection may occur.
How
To Find The Way To Healthy Longevity
As the old saying goes, are you "a picture of health"?
You may have a problem answering this question, but it's
important to know just where you stand on this issue.
I guess we all would like to be the healthiest person
we can be but it's not always possible. It seems like
we were never worried as much about our health when we
were younger.
Clinical
Hypnosis
Did you know that Americans spend as much out-of-pocket
for holistic solutions such as hypnosis as they do for
inpatient hospitalizations? The Eisenberg studies of 1991
and again in 1997 shocked the mainstream medical community
with these findings. The authoritarian approach to western
medicine assumes that health and wellness comes from others.
This minimizes the importance of our own natural ability
to not only enhance the healing process but to avoid illness
to begin with.
Cure
Your Arthritis - My Amazing Mom
From the age of 11 to age 53 my mother avoided holding
hands; they were painful to the touch, so puffed up, sore
and hot!!! Raising four children she, of course, had to
hold our hands. She tried so hard not to let us know how
painful it was but, we knew she was in constant pain.
Differences
in Health Insurance Plans
Health insurance plans have changed dramatically over
the past ten years, and American's currently have several
different options to choose from- including HMO's, PPO's,
fee-for-service plans, MSA's and major medical. There
are two main categories of health insurance plans that
each of these policies is classified as; managed care
plans and indemnity care plans. The differences between
each of these plans mean the differences in how you will
receive health care when you need it.
Lose
Weight Today, and Keep it Off Permanently, with Cliff
Kuhn, M.D.'s Fun Factor Diet
P.T. Barnum, who dedicated his life to entertaining the
masses, often relied on size-related adjectives to sell
his attractions. His posters and announcements were peppered
with words like mammoth, extraordinary, colossal, and
gargantuan. Unfortunately, if you're like most of us those
words might be used to describe you as well. Americans
have an obsession with losing weight and with good reason;
the percentage of overweight people in the United States
is doubling every ten years - from 1 in 200 in 1986, to
1 in 50 in 2000. Pretty soon there won't be enough room
for us all on this continent!
Darkness
is an Essential Part of Abundance
Today marks the winter solstice, the shortest day of the
year in the Northern Hemisphere. Winter begins on this
day. Many of us seek abundance and we seek to live enlightened
lives. And yet, on this time of the solstice I want to
celebrate the darkness as an essential part of abundance.
What if the hidden obstacle standing between you and living
an “Abundantly Alive Now!” life is that you
don’t have enough darkness in your life?
The
Governable Person
‘The examination combines the techniques of an observational
hierarchy and those of a normalising judgment. It is a
normalising gaze, a surveillance that makes it possible
to qualify, to classify and to punish. It establishes
over individuals a visibility through which one differentiates
them and judges them.’ (Foucault 1975: 184)
Knowledge
Moves
‘Knowledge comes from, and is drawn into, different
organisational structures. At the same time, the notion
that knowledge travels… Invites one to reconstruct
communities in its wake, tracing connections after the
fact.’ (Strathern 2004: 15).

Traditional
Chinese Medicine and Infertility
Although health and healing are the common goals of Traditional
Chinese Medicine (TCM) and allopathic medicine, their
ideas on the etiology of disease, disease itself and the
process used to regain health are decidedly different.
The allopathic physician learns that disease must be cured
by prescribing medicine, which kills bacteria or renders
a virus ineffective; at times surgical intervention is
a necessity. |
