A headache is a familiar human problem that is well known to everyone. It can be triggered by a broad range of conditions but it normally is not a sign of serious disease. The severity of a headache greatly varies from episode to episode, from minor to severe and disabling discomfort that may continue for several hrs and does not fade away on its own. Many over-the-counter drugs are very helpful but unfortunately, all can bring about a series of side effects and may also lead to severe complications if utilized frequently and/or in higher doses.

In addition to over-the-counter pain relievers, you may also alleviate headache with a number of home remedies or prepared natural remedies for headache which are said to be very effective and have little or no side effects:

Here are a few natural treatment options you can try at home. (more…)

These days, everyone is searching for the best colon cleanse supplies around. If you look up “colon cleanse” on Google or other popular search engine, you’ll notice thousands of different products. Not just any product should be purchased. Some products are not safe and contain ingredients that can actually do you more harm than good.

There are effective and safe products out there, but they can be a bit hard to find. You should always read the labels on products that claim to contain the best colon cleanse ingredients. Although a product may say it is organic, it may not be – at least not 100%. (more…)

Today’s world is changing. Pregnancy has slowly been converted into a sickness that requires medical intervention and surgical treatment. Women have blindly accepted this propaganda and many are now opting for Cesarean birth instead of natural childbirth.

The Public Citizen Health Research Group in Washington, D.C. has estimated that half of the nearly 1 million Cesareans performed every year are medically unnecessary. That means that 500,000 women per year are having severe medically unnecessary surgery! (more…)

Before I go on about what will be dealt with specifically from here on out, I want to say a word on skepticism. Skepticism is not a position, it is a method of inquiry. It is one which requires whoever is proposing an idea as though it is true, to prove it. You want me to believe your opinion that aliens live with you? Prove it! Until you do so, given the lack of proof for any other alien existence on planet Earth, I have no good reason to believe your opinion and am justified in reserving judgment until you (or anyone else) provides me with sound reasons to believe aliens live with you. Skepticism often is wrongly misrepresented as cynicism.

I am often accused of being a cynic because I don’t believe every new idea that I hear until I am provided good reasons for believing it. Well, my simple response is that such an accusation is not warranted. I see nothing wrong with being asked for reasons to believe in something and think that cynicism, believing nothing, is just as silly as believing everything. Every individual, whether he or she realizes it or not, is a skeptic about anything that violates something he or she already believe and see as uncontroversial. (more…)

The benefits of a colon cleanse is a hot topic that has recently gotten a lot of news coverage. A colon cleanse is a procedure that has a significant amount of positive bodily impact.

Nasal congestion relief should be natural, for the best and lasting results. Natural treatments are always helping your body move in the direction it is trying to go.

One of the best, broad spectrum natural decongestants is a neti pot with a weak saline solution. You can make up your solution with a little salt in some warm water. (more…)

A nasal decongestant is focussed on trying to make a thick discharge thin, so it drains. Or to prevent the formation of a discharge. This is suppressive treatment. It is not taking your body in the direction it is trying to go.

Your body is intelligent. It is always trying to make a good job of your health. But it is hampered by the lack of ‘tools’. Things that make you healthy, that raise your immune system are: (more…)

Nasal obstruction usually occurs when your nasal discharge is thick. Too thick to drain. Thin discharges drains easily, so would rarely cause a nasal obstruction.

Often the thick, stubborn discharge is gluey or stringy. When you can finally get some out, it’s sticky like chewing gum.

Once a discharge remains locked in your sinuses, it may become infected, so the typical colour of it is yellow or yellow/green. And the pressure may build up, creating a pain. Perhaps a pain at the root of your nose which feels heavy or burns. (more…)

Nerve pain will occur when you damage an area which is rich in nerves. Or it can come about from an inner disturbance.

Areas which are rich in nerves are the head, the spine, the fingers and toes, the eyes, the mouth and the genitals. So any injury to these parts are going to sustain a greater potential for nerve damage and so nerve pain, than other areas.

The typical pain of an injured nerve is sharp. Sharp and shooting. Away from the site of injury. And it feels like an electric shock. A buzzing or a stinging. Perhaps a tingling. (more…)

Overcoming grief can be as simple as allowing the grief to happen. Don’t try to stifle it. Abandon yourself to the crying. Allow tears to well up when you’re talking to friends. The worse thing you can do is to try to control the process. And yet, this is exactly what everyone does.

Grief is a perfectly normal and natural emotion to feel and it needs time to allow for the process. If you can allow the process to work, without trying to interfere, then you are more than likely to resolve it yourself. If friends make comments, abandon the friends, at least while you are grieving. They’re not helping you. (more…)
