Insidious Insomnia
Minka Fuhs, director of the Holistic Learning Institute in Vienna, Austria, says: “Sleeplessness is a serious problem. Nearly 40 per cent of all people over 40 years of age suffer from sleeping disorders and even the number of children sufferers rise constantly. A body that does not relax properly is endangered because of increased potential of elevated blood pressure and heart attack. Insomniacs may endanger others because of the lack of concentration that can precipitate accidents. If we sleep right, it helps us to stay healthy and recover from our daily challenges”.

Solutions for Chronic Illness - A homeopathic Approach
People often think of homeopathic medicines as natural medicines that are good for coughs and colds, accidents and injuries.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Survivor By Kathy Fields
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks its own body. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is caused by genetic mutations (single nucleotide polymorphisms) that impair the central nervous system’s ability to adapt to stressful situations, according to a summary released by the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, USA.
Cancer & Diet
This article is about what is best to eat when you have cancer? Before we go any further, it is important for you to bear in mind that your doctor or oncologist has had literally no training in understanding how nutrition has had any impact on human health, and would you believe, it is very recently that medical science would accept that a person’s diet had any bearing on their level of health and disease at all.
