Cancer and Complimentary Medicine

Cancer is a complex disease. Since being diagnosed with lymphoma, I have felt the tension between conventional and alternative approaches to its treatment and cure.


One thing I’ve noticed since being diagnosed with cancer is the animosity between conventional and alternative approaches to the disease. It can be quite contentious, no doubt because the stakes are so high. The lines are drawn: Western vs. Eastern; big business vs. folk culture; MDs vs. doctors of chiropractic, naturopathy and homeopathy; pharmaceuticals vs. herbs. Both sides in this civil war have their weaknesses and blind spots.

Diet Slimming Pills - How Do I Choose Safe Ones And Which Ones Are A Con?

Diet slimming pills abound on the market. Which ones are good and which ones should you forgo? And, how are you able to tell if something is a scam? This article will look at the real world of diet slimming pills.


Diet slimming pills are not tested or governed by the federal government if they are sold as supplements and not medicines. Basically, if you don't have to get it for a pharmacist, it's not FDA approved. But it's not FDA disproved either. This relates to supplements bought at a local pharmacy and ones bought over the net.

Warm Up to Winter Workouts

Be a super-fit snow angel with the right gear and a little smart planning.


Get Out There!


When the temperatures plummet and the sun makes only cameo appearances, the couch can seem infinitely more inviting than a jog around the block. But winter exercise does a body good: The hit of sunlight can boost your SAD mood and vitamin D levels, and it will make springtime bikini shopping more bearable. We bet you'll enjoy a few fun childhood flashbacks too. So swap your fleece-lined slippers for waterproof running shoes and head on out!


Warm It Up First


When Old Man Winter rears his ugly, icy head, warming up is even more crucial. Your body needs extra time to prepare for the frigid temps ahead, says Pete McCall, an exercise physiologist with the American Council on Exercise. "During the first six to 10 minutes of your workout, your respiratory and cardiovascular systems haven't caught up to your muscles yet," he explains. "A warm-up enables your lungs to start oxygenating your blood with the nutrients your muscles require." McCall suggests a 10-minute warm-up, starting indoors with some stretching, squats, and multidirectional lunges. Then head outside for a brisk walk, progressing to a slow jog. When stretching, pay extra attention to your calves—they're further away from your core, so they have less circulation and will be working differently to handle slippery sidewalks or slushy snow.
