"There is a Cure for Arthritis" There is A Cure for Arthritis By Dr. Bruce Fife “I have had chronic pain for 10 years,” says Barbara Moody of Redmond, Washington. Conventional treatments for arthritis rely on drugs and surgery to calm inflammation and deaden pain. Although arthritis can occur at almost any age, the risk of developing this degenerative disease increases as we get older. Over the years many theories have been proposed as to the cause of arthritis including food allergies, genetics, trauma, and infection. If arthritis is caused by microorganisms then you might think the solution would be simple—antibiotics! Without blood circulation, white blood cells and antibiotics are less effective in fighting off invasion. If antibiotics are of little value in combating the arthritic infections what can be done? The first step is to build up your immune system so it can more effectively fight off chronic infection. The second step is to actively fight off the infection within the body and the joints.
How I built an electricity producing wind turbine Several years ago I bought some remote property in Arizona. I am an astronomer and wanted a place to practice my hobby far away from the sky-wrecking light pollution found near cities of any real size. I found a great piece of property. One thing I noticed right away about my property is that most of the time, the wind is blowing. Let me state up front that I probably won't be able to help you out much if you decide to build your own wind turbine. Since no one seems to be reading the FAQ, I will answer the No. 1 question I get many, many times a day right here up front. Update: Here is a video of the wind turbine in operation. Update: Here is a video of me assembling and setting up the wind turbine on my remote off-grid property. I started the process of designing my wind turbine by Googling for information on home-built wind turbines. A generator Blades A mounting that keeps it turned into the wind A tower to get it up into the wind Batteries and an electronic control system . Finally!

DIY wind turbine project goes open source If you live in an area that sees a fair amount of wind and you’d like to reduce your utility bill by harnessing some of that wind power, a wind turbine might be a good idea. The trouble with most commercially made home wind turbines, though, is that they’re fairly expensive, extremely tall and, if you have neighbors, they might not appreciate the new addition to the neighborhood. Washington state resident and do-it-your-selfer Make Marohn came up with an inventive alternative. It’s called The Zoetrope and it’s a vertical-axis wind turbine made out of easily attainable parts and, according to this article, it can be assembled by just about anyone. Applied Sciences indicates Marohn’s intention for this project was to reduce his water heating bill. The result is this wind turbine made of materials that you can find at Home Depot and online. During testing, the turbine was witnessed outputting approximately 150-200 watts of power in a windy period with gusts reaching up to 20 MPH.

The Coconut Diet - Candida For the past 20 years I have been affected by a chronic illness which creates a susceptibility to opportunistic imbalances like candida. It's been 5 years that I have really been struggling with this (though the imbalance was established long before that). I read that taking Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil (TTVCO) could help with a candida imbalance and it really has. Of course, I did experience the dread die-off when I began the TTVCO (Feb '04), which is not pleasant, but I know of nothing that works to balance this situation without creating a die-off. I began using the coconut oil at 1 tsp the first day and increased by 1 tsp each day until I was taking 1 tbls with each meal (3x/day). Candida albicans is yeast (or fungus) that normally inhabits our digestive system.

'Good' bacteria keep immune system primed to fight future infections Scientists have long pondered the seeming contradiction that taking broad-spectrum antibiotics over a long period of time can lead to severe secondary bacterial infections. Now researchers from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine may have figured out why. The investigators show that "good" bacteria in the gut keep the immune system primed to more effectively fight infection from invading pathogenic bacteria. Altering the intricate dynamic between resident and foreign bacteria -- via antibiotics, for example -- compromises an animal's immune response, specifically, the function of white blood cells called neutrophils. Senior author Jeffrey Weiser, MD, professor of Microbiology and Pediatrics, likens these findings to starting a car: It's much easier to start moving if a car is idling than if its engine is cold. Similarly, if the immune system is already warmed up, it can better cope with pathogenic invaders. The study was funded by the US Public Health Service.
Trouble Sleeping? Make Sure You Turn Glowing Gadgets Off After Sunset There's growing concern among experts that the proliferation of glowing gadgets like computers may fool your brain into thinking that it's still daytime after the sun has gone down. Exposure during the night can disturb sleep patterns and exacerbate insomnia. Such concerns are not new -- Thomas Edison may have created these problems when he invented the light bulb. But the problem has grown worse thanks to the popularity of Apple's new slate computer, the iPad. Many consumers use an iPad to read at night, and unlike paper books or e-book readers like the Amazon Kindle, which does not emit its own light, the iPad's screen shines light directly into your eyes from a relatively close distance. According to CNN: "That makes the iPad and laptops more likely to disrupt sleep patterns than, say, a television sitting across the bedroom or a lamp that illuminates a paper book, both of which shoot far less light straight into the eye, researchers said."
