3 Tips to Eating Healthy


1.) Eat plenty of foods that are rich in calcium. People in their early twenties need to be build up stores of calcium in their bodies to prevent osteoporosis in later life. If you don't like milk, try to include ample amounts of low-fat yogurt, low-fat cheese, and green leafy vegetables in your diet.

2.) If you need to lose weight, do it sensibly. Starvation and/or diets that offer a quick fix usually backfire and are harmful. There is not truth to the theories that suggest eating foods in any particular combination will promote weight loss. The only safe way to lose weight, feel good while doing it, and keep it off is to eat a balanced diet.

3.) Drink lots of water. Your body needs at least eight glasses a day, and if you exercise vigorously, you may need more. To remind yourself, carry a water bottle along to class and keep it handy during late night study sessions.

What Benefits the Immune System?



What benefits the immune system should be an important consideration. Many people are concerned about what damages the immune system, but those things that are beneficial are sometimes overlooked. Vitamins, minerals, plant components and herbs to boost the immune system are all available. You just need to know which ones to look for.

The immune system is a very complicated collection of cells, organs and pathways. Specialized white blood cells learn what belongs in the body and what does not. These cells communicate with other cells that destroy those things that do not belong and they are carried out of the body. What benefits the immune system are those things which allow the white blood cells, lymph nodes and even the skin to function properly. In this article, we focus on a few herbs to boost immune system strength. This is by no means a complete list and the essential vitamins, minerals and trace nutrients important for proper nutrition are not listed here.

Of the known herbs to boost immune system strength, the most commonly used appears to be Echinacea. It is however difficult to learn how many people use products, such as these, since they are sold over the counter. A recent study in Canada concluded that of the people surveyed who used health and dietary supplements, more people used herbs to boost immune system strength and specifically Echinacea than all the other dietary and health supplements combined.

Echinacea was the most commonly used medicinal plants by Native Americans of the North American plains. It was used to relieve symptoms and hasten recover from everything from the common cold to influenza and infections of all types. It has often been recommended as what benefits the immune system because of this fact. Echinacea is a common plant that grows in many areas of the world. And while Echinacea supplements may be 100% natural, they may not be 100% safe. Recent evidence suggests that continued use for extended periods of time (more than 90 days) can be toxic to the liver. It should therefore be avoided by anyone who takes prescription or over the counter medications that are known to be toxic to the liver. And extended use should be avoided. This could be a problem for those who are looking for what benefits the immune system, because studies indicate that full effectiveness as a preventative is only achieved after using for three months consecutively. Echinacea may be a better choice for occasional use, as a treatment or to speed recovery time from colds and viruses, as this was its historical use.

A Successful Story Of A LifeMel Honey User

Heime Geffen

May 31, 2007

By Candice Krieger


Two months ago he was bed-ridden, his chemotherapy treatment had been abandoned and oncologists had written him off. But now leukaemia sufferer Heime Geffen claims that he is showing improvements thanks to an Israeli-made honey, Lifemel.

The 76-year-old retired doctor was diagnosed with leukaemia in October 2006. He tells People: “My white cell count at that time was 2.1 (the normal is close to 4). Following chemotherapy it dropped to 1.2 and remained in that until March 2007. Chemotherapy was abandoned in February and I was not receiving any treatment.”

In April, Dr Geffen started taking twice-daily teaspoons of Lifemel honey, after his daughter Terri Barnett and her husband Ian heard about it from an Israeli oncologist. Lifemel is reportedly made from bees fed on specific plants, and adherents claim that it can help fight neutropenia, an abnormal decrease in the blood’s white blood cells. Dr Geffen says: “Being a doctor, I was sceptical about alternative medicines, but within a week I began feeling stronger, and my blood count started improving.

“Today, my white-blood-cell count is virtually normal. I am out of bed, have abandoned my walker and plan to play bridge again. Of course, I can not be sure that it is definitely the honey which is making me better, but I will carry on taking it.”

If this sounds like a sales pitch, perhaps there is a reason for Dr Geffen’s enthusiasm for the product. His son-in-law, recently back from Israel, is looking to market Lifemel in the UK.

The Science Behind LifeMel Honey

LifeMel is a specially formulated honey which could help cancer patients who develop Neutropenia, a debilitating side effect associated with chemotherapy and radiation therapy, according to a recent study.

The peer reviewed study published in the international journal, MEDICAL ONCOLOGY, highlights the beneficial role Life Mel Honey can have in patients experiencing ‘chemotherapy induced neutropenia’ Life Mel Honey, when administered to patients receiving chemotherapy with a known tendency to developing neutropenia, had a positive effect on the hematopoietic system and stimulated the production of red and white blood cells, hemoglobin and blood platelets.

Chemotherapy suppresses the hematopoietic system (blood production), thus impairing the body’s immunity mechanisms, potentially inducing anaemia and limiting the doses of chemotherapy which can be tolerated by patients. Febrile neutropenia, the most serious hematologic toxicity, is associated with the risk of life-threatening infections as well as chemotherapy dose reductions and delays which may compromise treatment outcomes for cancer patients.

The study assessed the use of Life Mel Honey (LMH) in patients with grade 4 neutropenia receiving chemotherapy for primary or metastatic disease. Traditionally, colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) are used for primary and secondary treatment in patients with grade 4 neutropenia, yet the use of these drugs are expensive and not without side-effects. In the current study, Life Mel Honey was administered to prevent neutropenia and reduce the need for CSFs in patients treated with chemotherapy. Blood counts were performed weekly.

There was no recurrence of neutropenia after LMH intake and no need for treatment with CSFs in 40% of patients. LMH was also effective at reducing the incidence of anaemia, which can often be a side effect of chemotherapy, in 64% of patients. No side effects were noted following LMH intake.

Further studies with larger numbers of patients are planned and researchers are currently preparing for Stage II clinical trials.

Do Something Worthwhile on World AIDS Day: Strengthen Your Immune System



















The immune system is the body’s first line of defense in maintaining health, preventing illness, and hastening recovery. Many people experience a weakened immune system due to poor sleep habits, unhealthy diets, post chemotherapy treatment, or other illnesses or medical conditions such as HIV.

Research has shown that supplementing the immune system can help us resist some illnesses.

If you are currently feeling the effects of a weakened immune system, no matter what the cause, we have a natural solution. Zuf Globus laboratories in Israel, has gone beyond the call of duty in helping people improve the quality of their lives.

The New Buzz from Israel to Los Angeles

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 13, 2007 -- Why are bees receiving the praise over the launch of LifeMel Chemo Support in the US? And why are so many chemotherapy patients turning to bees instead of running from them?

With the launch of LifeMel in the United States, more and more patients are turning to LifeMel Chemo Support for relief and couldn't be happier about the bees. The distribution rights were granted by Zuf Globus Laboratories, the renowned Israeli manufacturer of health products and nutritional supplements made of pure honey from bees fed medicinal herb formulas.

76 year old leukemia sufferer and retired doctor, Hime Geffen, said that within a week of starting to take LifeMel, he began feeling stronger and his blood count started improving. Only two months prior he was bed ridden, his chemotherapy treatment had been abandoned and his white cell count had dropped to a very low 1.2. "Today, my white-blood-cell count is virtually normal. I am out of bed, have abandoned my walker, have played several rounds of golf, and I will carry on taking it [the honey," Geffen says.

Nave Koren shares, "On the same week that I have started to use the LifeMel honey, the weakness was not so severe and I could get out of bed every morning, cook and function as a mother to my children. The itching in my body was completely gone, I did not have any limb pains, and my hemoglobin level keeps going up."

Since everyone's case is different, each person may experience differences in regards to their own relief and benefits. However, what does stay consistent is that while using LifeMel there are clinically proven benefits to the immune system and improved blood counts levels.

According to the American Cancer Society, the 2007 estimated number of cancer cases for men is 766,860 and 678,060 for women. Since there were so many people who benefited in Israel, New Horizons couldn't overlook the fact that so many people could possibly benefit from this amazing product here in the US. They were eager to introduce LifeMel in the US and hopefully start helping the numbers of people affected on a daily basis.

"We are committed to making a difference in the lives of our clients," says Karen Schakarov, VP of Marketing for New Horizons. "Some patients begin feeling stronger within ten days of starting LifeMel!" With so many people impacted by cancer, it is wonderful to know that in some small way, we can offer some relief to those who are suffering."

How do bees produce the Unique LifeMel honey?

"Zuf Globus Laboratories Ltd." prepares an all natural mixture for controlled feeding of bees based on natural honey and adding extracts of various edible plants [therapeutic herbs] to produce this unique natural honey. The mixture of natural honey together with the edible plants' extract, substitutes the pollen that is available to bees in nature and, from it the bees produce a new type of honey, with therapeutic properties, respective to the types of therapeutic herbs that were incorporated into the feed mixture.

This method enables Zuf Globus to control the precise doses of desired food types with which to feed the bees and, ultimately, produce honeys, whose properties are predesigned yet improved through the synergetic effect of being formed in the bee's body.

Miraculous Honey Spreading Around the World

http://www.prweb.com/releases/2008/03/prweb734004.htm

A new groundbreaking miraculous honey is now being introduced and used in hospitals around the world for Chemotherapy patients. Developed in Israel and now being praised throughout the world for it's benefits, LifeMel continues to raise blood levels in chemotherapy patients. As many chemotherapy patients have experienced, blood levels tend to drop during chemotherapy treatments and frequently the patient is not able to continue treatment. Amazing stories from around the world show how this miraculous honey has made a difference in their recovery.

As stated in the UK Daily Express Robert Brunt, 48, integrated the honey into his chemotherapy regimen and reported on his experience. "I have lost a little hair but that is growing back. I sometimes feel tired and a bit sick but apart from that I have had no side effects at all. My blood counts have always been high." Not only does Brunt credit his ability to sail through treatments with no ill effects from the honey, but he also explains that he offered to have two extra cycles of chemotherapy (eight in all) "because I felt so well".

Dr. Olga Olizki, an oncologist from the Belinson hospital in Israel is also familiar with LifeMel honey and strongly recommends it for her patients. When interviewed she stated, "Even today, not all efforts of conventional medicine are successful. Blood transfusions and the use of new medicine help to restore blood. But sometimes even due to all our efforts we do not achieve results and then we, the doctors, must halt the treatment and postpone it to a later date, to enable the body to recover the Neutrophils and other blood particles. The pause might allow the tumor to develop resistance to the chemicals. The usage of LifeMel honey enables continuous treatment." (Maariv)

In Canada, Dr. Heime Geffen, a former family doctor, said "I had deteriorated physically to the point where I was virtually bedridden. I couldn't eat, I had sores in my mouth and I felt dreadful." In April he began taking the LifeMel honey twice a day on the recommendation of his son-in-law who had heard about it from an oncologist in Israel. Within a week, he said he began feeling stronger and his blood counts began to improve. By mid May they were virtually normal. Within months he was back on the golf course.

So although you'll find many different views and customs from country to country, there is one similarity that cannot be denied: more and more people are being introduced to this honey with amazing results and gaining new found hope.
