You can and should take control of your health. Some of the articles we’ve publish recently were written to show you both how and why you need to be the one in control. Dehydration and Your Health was written to share with you how important water is to your health and why. Water delivers nutrients to our cells and organs and removes the wastes so you can help detoxify your body with proper hydration.
We wrote Complete Colon Health Equals Disease Prevention to let you know the colon is vital to both the delivery of nutrition and the elimination of waste. You may have heard that aluminum has been associated with Alzheimer’s or that long term exposure to pesticides in well water and foods cause Parkinson’s Disease. No clear cause has been determined yet for either disease. The colon is the organ that is used to expel any aluminum, lead or other toxins that you may have in your body. Why take the chance when you can help prevent the problem by removing the toxins from your body?
Are You Unknowingly Poisoning Yourself? was meant to teach you that some of the commercial products you may be using each day could be putting toxins in your system that may cause cancer or other diseases. We didn’t want to give you just the problem so Your Health and Your Skin Deserve Better was written to show you there are both natural and organic alternatives to many products. It’s important that you read the labels of ALL products because your body might reject some organic products and government guidelines allow inclusion of a certain percentage of chemicals and still be called organic.
Toxins are all around you in your daily life so it is important to do what you can to eliminate them from your diet and minimize your exposure through personal care products so your body has fewer toxins to expel.
Obesity is caused by many things with over eating and a lack of exercise being just two of the causes. since obesity makes your body work harder and less efficiently we wrote Is Malnutrition Causing Your Obesity? to share with you how past farming practices, governmental regulations and greed are combining to provide you with a food supply that fails to supply you with the nutrients your body needs to thrive.
“In the future, we will not be able to rely anymore on our premise that the consumption of a varied balanced diet will provide all the essential trace elements, because such a diet will be very difficult to obtain for millions of people.” Dr. Walter Mertz, U.S. Department of Agriculture, told to congress in 1977.
The instances of cancer and other diseases are increasing each day and the obesity of our population is growing at an alarming rate so I think we are rapidly approaching the time Dr. Mertz was warning us of in 1977. I believe people that eat 100% organic foods are receiving many more nutrients in their diets than those that rely on the general food supply.
Dr. Linus Pauling the two-time Nobel Prize winner states that: “You can trace every sickness, every disease, and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”
Not all vitamins and minerals are equal. Whole food vitamins are derived from plants and are in a natural state so our bodies can more easily absorb them than the artificial vitamins found in some of the drug stores and super markets you may frequent. Our body is mostly water and much of the activity that takes place in it is electrical so we need ionized minerals. (Ionized means the minerals can conduct electricity.) Many of the minerals you can buy locally and online are made from crushed rock which isn’t natural. In nature, water passes over minerals and picks up some of the minerals in passing. Plants then absorb these minerals which are ready to be used. Which makes more sense to you, taking a pill made up of ground rock or taking liquid minerals that are ready for immediate use by your body?
Dr. Pauling has stated how important minerals are to your health. You have the choice as to whether you are going to be proactive and get the minerals and vitamins your body needs to ward off sickness and disease.

There are many different nail fungus home remedies that are offered both on and offline. Some of the home and commercial remedies are effective while others aren’t as effective. Look at the ingredients of any remedy before using it because some may actually be detrimental to your health.
Distal subungual onychomycosis is one of the 4 different fungi that cause fungal infections and it is the most common cause of nail infections. Toenails are more prone to fungal infections than finger nails because they grow slower. For this same reason, toenails take longer to heal once infected. Nail fungal infections are a worldwide problem that affects anywhere from 2% to 18% at any given point in time with the majority of the infected being adults. Children rarely get nail fungus infections.
A nail fungus infection can be a sign of your overall health. An immune system that isn’t healthy enough to fight off fungal infections might be not be able to fend off other ailments or diseases. If you’ve read the articles on minerals that are located elsewhere here at www.naturalremediesproducts.com, you might have noticed mineral deficiencies can cause nail problems. Two nail fungus home remedies that work for many are Vicks VapoRub and apple cider vinegar but these must be used consistently and you must give the nail time to grow out. The discoloration you see is caused by the fungus and it can only be removed by cutting off the nail as it grows out.
Before deciding on the option that is best for you and your nail fungus, it is wise to talk to your medical professional and read as much as you can so you are an informed consumer that chooses the healthiest option.
Two books you might consider reading are Home Remedies for Toenail Fungus and Stop Nail Fungus. Of these two sources, I recommend Stop Nail Fungus because it discusses both prescription drugs and rates different home remedies for effectiveness.
Knowledge is power but it is useless unless you take action and use it to get rid of your nail fungus.

Yes! Iodine helps your thyroid function as it’s designed to and the hormones it creates help your overall health. The amount of iodine you need is recommended to be 150mcg (microgram) per day. Too much iodine or iodine deficiencies both create health problems. Pregnant women with iodine deficiencies are at risk of giving birth to a child that’s mentally retarded or one with severe motor skill problems. Infants that have iodine deficiencies face the some potential problems with motor skill problems and retardation that newborns face.
Adults that have an iodine deficiency may develop hypothyroidism which is caused by too little iodine and can manifest itself with a slower metabolic rate which could lead to excess weight and low energy. Other problems associated with hypothyroidism may be forgetfulness, personality changes, skin that’s yellowish, dry or scaly and depression. An enlarged thyroid gland which is called goiter is also a possibility.
Hyperthyroidism can also manifest itself in people with excessive iodine in their systems. These manifestations may be in the form of goiter, irregular heart rates, palpitations, sweats, nervousness, tremors, increased activity or eye abnormalities.
Some of the natural sources for iodine are: sea water, kelp, some types of seafood, citrus products such as oranges and grapefruit, egg yolks and garlic.
Many Americans get their iodine from iodized salt but this isn’t a good way because table salt isn’t good for you.

Fluoride has been added to the drinking water in many communities because it has been claimed it reduces tooth decay 40% to 60% over communities that don’t have fluorinated water. This belief was first promoted in the early 1940′s but studies since that time have shown that Fluoride is a toxin we do not need. The 11 organizations listed below stopped supporting the Fluoridation of water in 1996:
- American Heart Assoc.
- American Academy of Allergy & Immunology
- American Cancer Society
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Action Network
- American Diabetes Assoc.
- National Institute of Law Municipal Officers
- American Chiropractic Assoc.
- American Civil Liberties Union
- Nat’l Kidney Foundation
- American Psychiatric Assoc.
- Soc. of Toxicology
If you visit the Wikipedia page on fluoride at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoride, you’ll see this is a very toxic substance that many are being forced to drink.
Some sites state that fluoride is necessary for strong teeth and bones but no studies have conclusively proven this. Do your own due diligence and decide for yourself by visiting:
Pro Fluoride sites

Here’s something for you to think about:
Adolf Hitler sought a means to make people docile and suggestible. He discovered that odorless sodium fluoride slowly poisons and makes dormant the small tissue in the brain’s left rear occipital lobe that normally helps a person resist domination. Fluoride allows muscles to move one way, but not relax. In large doses fluoride can cause paralysis and death.
“Referenced from the article ‘Fluorine is a Deadly Poison !’ from ‘Dr. Patricia Bragg”.”
Sodium fluoride is classified with arsenic and cyanide as a dangerous poison and is used in rat poison. Hydrogen fluoride is an industrial pollutant. It is illegal to sell or give away a fluoride pill of 1 mg. Fluoride slowly destroys the body’s self-repair and rejuvenation capabilities causing premature aging, bone damage and deformities.
It’s up to you to decide whether you want fluoride in your toothpaste, food, drinking water or body after visiting the sites above.
