Encouraging News About Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women

Published: January 15, 2013
Categories:

Women taking hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for 11 years lived longer and healthier lives than women not taking HRT — with 50% less heart disease, and no increase in the risk of breast cancer, stroke or blood clots, reported a team of Danish researchers in the October 9 issue of the British Medical Journal.

These are very different results from the widely-reported Women's Health Initiative (WHI) Study, which showed an increase in the risk of heart disease, stroke, blood clots and breast cancer among women who took HRT. Why the difference?

Is Your Statin Robbing You of Energy?

Published: December 11, 2012
Categories:

Researchers at the University of California studied more than 1,000 people with moderately high levels of LDL cholesterol, half of whom had taken a statin (20 mg of Zocor or 40 mg of Pravachol) for six months. Those using statins had lower levels of energy and/or more fatigue after exercise. And the women in the study suffered more of these side effects than the men.

Red Yeast Rice - a Safe, Natural Alternative to Statins

Published: December 11, 2012
Categories:

Noting that many patients don't take their cholesterol-lowering statins because of side effects like muscle pain, a researcher from the Department of Medicine at Columbia University gave 18 people with high cholesterol an all-natural, cholesterol-lowering powdered shake (with almond, soy or low-fat milk) that contained 1,200 mg of red yeast rice and 1,250 mg of phytosterols.

Published: December 11, 2012
Categories:

Are you going into holiday season, but have the blues because you're looking at all this great food but worried about a high cholesterol level. Here is some great news for you!

Optimal cholesterol levels are the #1 topic of conversation when it comes to promoting a healthy heart and circulatory system.

Want to know a dirty little medical secret? In people without known heart disease, maintaining healthy cholesterol levels is not necessarily the most important (or even an especially significant) factor when it comes to supporting heart health.

A New Highly Effective Treatment for CRPS/Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy

Published: December 4, 2012
Categories:

Although I have been unimpressed by the long-term effectiveness and safety of a family medications called biphosphonates for the treatment of osteoporosis, finding natural remedies to be dramatically more effective, and much safer and lower cost, here is a fascinating study suggesting that an intravenous biphosphonate available in Italy can be dramatically effective at treating a horrible pain condition called CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome – Previously Called Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy). At the end of one year, the patients were largely pain-free.

Tension Headaches

Published: October 29, 2012
Categories:

Headaches are a major source of chronic pain. Although most people get an occasional headache, as many as 45 million Americans get them on a regular basis. Tension headaches account for about three quarters of all headaches, tend to both start and fade away gradually, and are the result of muscle tightness. When coming from the neck muscles, they cause moderate pain on both sides of, and across, the forehead. Occasionally, tension headaches from the muscles at the base of the skull are felt on the back and top of the head, or behind the eyes. Because tension headaches are muscular, the same therapies we've discussed in the past that cause your muscles to relax will often eliminate the recurrence of these headaches for good!
