Chronic Insomnia Affects Approximately 30 Million
The need for sleep becomes more important as our everyday lives become increasingly stressful due to work, relationships and world events. According to a recent report by IOM's Committee on Sleep Medicine and Sleep Research, chronic insomnia affects approximately 30 million Americans. Health problems, such as obesity and high blood pressure, negative mood and behavior, decreased productivity, not to mention safety issues in the home, on the job and on the road, have been scientifically linked to the lack of sufficient sleep.
Last fall we introduced a new natural sleep aid. Sales have taken off like a rocket and feedback is extremely positive.

Coenzyme Q10 - A Vital Energy Nutrient
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a fat soluble compound best known for its vital function in the production of energy inside cells. It is concentrated in the part of the cell that churns out energy, the mitochondria. A lesser known function of CoQ10 may be its powerful antioxidant activity in cell membranes and in lipoproteins like LDL cholesterol.
Tissue with a big CoQ10 footprint
Cardiologist, congestive heart failure researcher and international CoQ10 expert, Peter H. Langsjoen, MD, FACC says that "The heart muscle uses more energy than any other organ in our bodies".
Skeletal muscle, the brain, the liver and gum tissue are also big energy consumers. These organs and tissues require... Read the entire article here.
How Statin Drugs Wreck Your Muscles
Statins, a popular set of drugs used to lower cholesterol, can result in muscle weakness and pain, and even debilitating and life-threatening muscle damage. A new study offers the first evidence that a gene known as atrogin-1 plays a key role in statin-related muscle toxicity.
Statins such as Lipitor, Zocor, Pavacol and Mevacor lower cholesterol by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, a key enzyme in cholesterol synthesis. But they may also activate the gene atrogin-1 gene, which plays a key role in muscle, stress, muscle pain, cramps and atrophy.
Three separate tests showed that even at low concentrations, statin drugs led to atrogin-1 induced muscle damage. As the concentration was increased, the damage increased as well.

FDA Inspected the Wrong Chinese Plant
Did you know that the blood thinner drug Heparin is made from chemicals imported from a Chinese chemical factory? It's pretty hilarious that the FDA says Americans shouldn't be able to buy drugs from outside the country because they're "too dangerous," but in reality, drug companies buy contaminated chemical ingredients from those very same countries said to be "unsafe" by the FDA. Yep, drugs from Canada are too dangerous for Americans, but drug ingredients from Chinese chemical factories are apparently safe enough for Big Pharma!
In a related story:
“It was a glitch”. That's what the FDA said last week when confronted with the news that it hadn't inspected the Chinese plant that made the main ingredient for Baxter's recalled batches of heparin. Now we know just how big that glitch was: The FDA inspected and approved the wrong plant. No wonder some in the blogosphere are calling it the "Fundamentally Defective Agency."
On top of that, the FDA has failed to inspect 93% of those factories, meaning they have no idea whatsoever about the quality control (or lack thereof) processes actually being used in those factories. This is the FDA's "stick-my-head-in-the-ground" approach to drug safety regulation.
Editors Note: They stumble, bumble and kowtow to big Pharma and we are asked to trust these guys to protect our interest? “Not”
Lifestyle Changes Reduce Symptoms Associated with BPH
Prostate gland growth is regulated by sex hormones, including estrogen, testosterone, and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). In the body, testosterone is metabolized into DHT by the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase. Often, as men grow older, more DHT is produced. Drugs and nutrients that lower DHT by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase have been shown to reduce the size of the prostate gland and therefore reduce the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Herbs and nutrients are a very important and usually underutilized element of BPH therapy. Some of the most effective herbs that treat BPH operate along similar pathways as prescription drugs, which are much stronger, without the adverse effects. If you are in the watchful-waiting period of BPH, you should consider slowing the progression of your condition, and avoiding the unpleasant symptoms of more severe BPH, by using nutrient and supplemental therapy
- Eat ample amounts of fresh fish, fruits, and vegetables. The high mineral and vitamin content (especially of vitamins E and D) of these foods are essential for general health and metabolism but can also reflect positively on prostate cells.
- Reduce stress, both on and off the job.
- Exercise regularly.
- Keep your weight within normal limits.
- Consider a prostate supplement
