I don’t know about you, but I wanted to stop snoring now. It’s hard to admit when you have a problem, but sometimes that’s the first place to start. It’s not my wife who wants to know how to stop snoring; it’s me, because I care about her sleep and health as well as my own. If you are a chronic snorer the problem is affecting you and your partner. And yes; you can stop snoring now with a lot of the snoring tips that you will find on our site.
There have been many clinical studies related to this topic, all of them pointing to the fact that chronic snoring can have serious effects on the body. Mild snoring might seem harmless, but it can actually lead to more serious health problems, including sleep deprivation. Persistent snoring has also been linked to problems in cardiovascular health, type II diabetes, hypertension and metabolic syndrome. Long-term snoring not only disturbs those close to you, but also keeps you from getting the rest and airflow your body needs to stay healthy.
CNN and a top medical research center did a study on the affects of snoring and children. This is what they found. The study suggests children who snore face nearly double the risk of being inattentive and hyperactive, providing fresh evidence of an intriguing link between sleep problems and attention deficit disorders.

There has been a lot of debate as to which source of omega 3 fatty acids is better for you, fish oil capsules or flaxseeds. Well to start with, flaxseed is an excellent source of SOME omega 3s but not all. In other words, you will still need to regularly include a good source of DHA fish oil in your diet. There is no substitute, really, for the concentration of both DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) essential fatty acids in fish. But if you choose to take flaxseeds to supplement your dietary intake of ALA (alpha lipoic acid) then you should opt for the milled or ground flaxseed meal as opposed to whole. Flaxseeds can be found at the health food store or in the organic food section of your supermarket. The milled flaxseed is easier to digest and assimilate into your body. The whole flaxseeds require more work to digest and there is more of a chance that part of the whole seed will pass through without being absorbed.
Milled flaxseed makes an excellent topping to breakfast cereal, both hot and cold. Just sprinkle a tablespoon directly onto the cereal and enjoy. Another great way to enjoy the benefits of milled flaxseeds is to sprinkle some on your yogurt. It mixes well and actually tastes pretty good.

Ritalin is one of the drugs prescribed for hyperactivity disorder known as ADHD. It is a stimulant for the central nervous system more potent than caffeine but is being prescribed for its supposed calming effect on children.
The Internet has over one million posts on the side effects of Ritalin and other psychiatric drugs. For example, the recognized short term side effects of one of these drugs, are insomnia, disturbances of digestion, dizziness, headaches, skin irritations, weight loss, psychotic episodes, with severe depression upon withdrawal of the medication. Its predictable long term side effects can include malnutrition through loss of appetite, tremors, convulsions, headache, irregularities of heart and lungs, paranoia, hallucinations and sensory distortions.
We realize it is time to face these issues as now, as it is admitted by medical experts that medicine prescribed for certain mental symptoms is often the cause of intensification of the symptoms and is commonly associated with additional and often long term health problems.
Why do we ever allow this ‘medication’ to be given to our children? There is no logical explanation for a system of medication to endure that offers no real cure and has the effrontery to create additional diseases to the original symptoms and condition.
Many psychiatrists are working to address the over-prescribing of drugs for children. “In the area of child psychiatry in particular, we know much less than we should, and we desperately need research that is not influenced by industry money,” says Dr E. Fuller Torrey of the Stanley Medical Research Institute.
In Australia, too, the relationship between pharmaceutical companies and doctors is now being questioned increasingly.

Mind drugs that have been largely experimental over the last decades, are now under severe medical scrutiny by expert psychiatrists many of whom share the conclusion that the damage that has been done and is still being perpetrated is so severe as to advise a ban upon many of the psychiatric drugs produced by pharmaceutical companies and generally prescribed for depression, anxiety and more serious mental diseases.
Because our population is largely dependent upon current health systems that have supported the drug philosophy and doctors have been willing to take the chemical route in medicating for mental and physical diseases, the majority of people have a bloodstream consisting of a cocktail of artificially introduced chemicals and remedies. This factor replaces the natural body chemistry when our bloodstream was simply comprised of natural nutrients found in our food. The present complexity of chemicals in most patients makes the introduction of every new drug unpredictable.
However, we have come to the sad impasse that no medicinal drug can be trusted to deliver a consistent result. Medical records abound with examples where negative reactions were not anticipated. Many iatrogenic deaths have occurred through administration of drugs for both physical and mental problems. In the latter case there are serious reactions that have completely destroyed the quality of life of those who are now disabled in their brain and mental life.
To know the negatives about modern drugs provides us with motivation to seek a better, safer way of health care. If we choose to avoid drugs for treatment of any physical and mental symptoms, we must have an alternative method of easing our distress and reducing our symptoms.
To put into action a positive alternative system takes considerable application and thought. Whether in private, or in group training and action, we must create better health that will be our natural defence against disease of all kinds. A mental health and fitness programme is a similar requirement.

Gradually and by degrees the principle of personal freedom is being eroded. Where once the province of health and our choice of health care was our own business, more and more are we becoming subjected to the over-riding dictatorship of governments and bureaucracies.
For example, in the U.S. and to some extent in Australia and no doubt other countries, the bureaucratic health departments such as the FDA are enforcing mass public inoculations, vaccinations and subjecting the public to chemicals and procedures that they would not consciously choose. We are not generally informed as to the risks we are subjected to in the chemicals and toxins that surround us not in everyday life in western countries as in the case of plastics, aluminium and asbestos.
In spite of public voice to refrain from fluoridation of water supplies, general fluoridation of water now is used, including in Queensland where the public voice against it was strong. This has gone ahead in spite of scientific findings of the carcinogenic potential.
When a carcinogen or unsafe substance is identified, as in the case of tobacco that causes so many deaths, why is no action taken to prohibit the sale of cigarettes that are easily available over the counter? It is easy to doubt the sincerity of ‘health department’ regulations that claim to protect public health and to believe that the motivation that allows cancer producing and addictive products to be flagrantly marketed can only be through intervention of the profit seeking tobacco companies. So the non-smoking public continues to be subjected to the dangers of cigarette smoke, albeit indirectly.
By stealth we are being subjected to many drugs and chemicals that do not claim to be helping our teeth, such as chlorine. In spite of being a suspect carcinogenic, chlorine in the water of swimming pools is now mandatory and is so detrimental to the senses, to those with asthma and suffer allergies to skin or lungs that they cannot swim in public pools or participate in swimming carnivals.
Regarding the quality of our food, we endure controversial matters and methods that as yet cannot be claimed as totally safe such as the waxing of fruit, irradiation of fresh produce, and foods produced by genetic engineering.
Consumers who wish for better basic health issues to be addressed so that we are confident that our children’s health will not be damaged must speak out against unethical medical issues, else we will become silent victims of serious circumstances that we may not be able to alter.
We must retain our human rights related to our health.
