Are you sick of feeling sluggish and lethargic each day? Do you want to feel more vibrant and lose weight at the same time? If you are disciplined enough to do a lemonade cleansing diet about 4-6 times each year, then you can be a much healthier person while dropping a few pounds each time you put yourself on the diet. This is not a diet to use for a long period of time, but more for about 10 days. Here is what you can gain from this type of diet.

Basically with the lemonade cleansing diet you will be flushing out your colon. This is where your body stores unnecessary toxins and you need to flush those out of your body. They will come out in the form of black sludge and you will feel a whole lot better once you rid your body of the junk you are storing in your colon.

This will give you much more energy, which translates into time. With more energy you will be able to get more done in a shorter amount of time and you will require less sleep. We could all use an extra hour or two each day and this is a great way to get those couple of hours that you so desperately need.

You will also gain stamina in the bedroom. Sure without all those toxins weighing your body down you will be more in the mood for sex and you will be able to go at it for a longer amount of time. This will make you and your spouse much happier, at least if they like to have sex with you.

The best benefit is the weight loss from the lemonade cleansing diet. You can lose up to 20 pounds in 10 days and most will average between 5 and 7 pounds over those 10 days. This is a great way to transition into new eating habits or just to drop some quick weight from your body that you really don’t need anyway.

There are many different opinions about the master cleanse directions that you should use to cleanse your colon. The benefits of doing so will include an increase in energy and stamina, better health, and some quick weight loss as well. Here is a review of the health food store products for colon cleanses and the master cleanse directions that you can get online.

The master cleanse will have many great benefits for you including more energy. This will lead to more time for you because you will be able to accomplish more in less time and you will require less sleep. You will also experience more stamina, even in the bedroom, which can be a huge benefit. The best benefit of all is that you will get to lose some weight over the time you are doing your colon cleanse. Most people average about a pound a day, but some are as high as two pounds per day of weight loss.

The Health Food Store Colon Cleanse Products

These are great if you just want to wake up your bowel movements and get regular. However, to really flush out your colon the products you can get at a health food store are only average. It would cost you nearly $100 or so each time you performed a colon cleanse to get the products you need. Plus you would have to take them almost every 3 hours for about 5 days to get the results you really want.

This is not even to mention that if you eat while you are using these products it will not be helpful to your overall goal of flushing your colon.

The Master Cleanse Guide and Master Cleanse Directions

You can get master cleanse directions that will flush your colon over a period of 3 days, 5 days, 7 days, or even 10 days. Most recommend the 10 day colon cleanse for the best results and the master cleanse online guide is perfect for this. Plus you only have to pay for it once, then you have all the knowledge you need to perform a complete colon cleanse whenever you want.

Arthritis can be understood as a group of conditions in which individuals, generally above 55, feel pain in their joints. This pain, if very severe, can lead to disability or any other traumatic situation. It is, therefore, very important to identify it as soon as possible and eliminate or optimize the effect. Some of the symptoms that hint the presence of the disease include backache, abrupt weight loss, stiffing in joints and swellings. A number of treatments – methods are available from which the ones that can be outlined are:

• Yoga: Yoga is considered to be the simplest and most effective means of treatment on for the eternity it has to back its worth.

• Massage: It helps the patients get their muscles strengthened and subsequently optimize the pain and increase mobility.

• Feldenkrais: Clubbing massage with exercise, this way of treatment helps the muscles and joints get loosened and worked out.

• Medication: This is the clinical method where the patient is given a number of drugs and medicines as per the situation demands.

• Dieting and Exercise: This is one of the conventional ways of sorting out the problem which involves a long time and care-taking.

• Injecting hyaluronates into knee joints: Prescribed and approved only for knee, this way of treatment adds to the viscosity of the fluids in the body.

• Natural Treatments: In the natural means of treatment, the use of magnets is quite prominent due to which the responsiveness of the body gets enhanced.

• Having a nutritious diet: It helps in properly managing the weight of the body and maintain it at a balanced and viable level.

I’ve been touched on a personal level on more than one occasion by the sad news that someone I know, whether a friend or family member has been diagnosed with this terrible disease. Given the dramatic advances within the medical world we all hope and pray that a cure is found one day soon. My curiosity was thus aroused when I glanced at a recent headline which talked about green tea and prostate cancer.

These eye catching headlines never give the reader a full account and this article will examine just some of the main points under debate. No one is hailing green tea as being a wonder cure as that’s certainly not the case, but it was being talked about more in the way of its protective qualities as a preventative tool which is what surely works best. I’ve been hearing about antioxidants for ages and how good they are at alleviating or combating things like the aging process and free radicals, which seem to go hand-in-hand whenever one reads about antioxidants in general.

Seems that green tea’s antioxidants which are called Catechins are considered as having quite powerful effects. Nowhere more so than when we talk about the different carcinogens that may go on to cause the actual disease. What green tea does is to reduce their potential to do the latter by lowering their toxicity. Another of its claims is to actually inhibit the formation of tumors, again directly attributed to these antioxidants.

Where ever preventative action like drinking green tea is truly effective only time will tell but considering it’s a natural product which has been around since the ancient Chinese discovered it, maybe there’s no harm in trying it. Like many of us who may already take a vitamin supplement as a daily ritual I’m happy to mention I’ve also found one that has a green tea extract on it’s ingredient list.

Whilst the debate about green tea rolls on, we can and should take some small, personal steps to keep ourselves healthy and reduce the chances of catching any disease.

Times have changed. Back in the dark ages, not that many decades ago, breast cancer was a secret shame, and often a death sentence. Women hid the diagnosis, and were helpless victims of a medical system that hadn’t spent a lot of time or money dealing with the disease. Having cancer was bad enough; the fact that it usually required the loss of one if not both of the woman’s breasts, the most visible of her womanly attributes, was devastating to her self-esteem. Nowadays, breast cancer is a pink ribbon cause-a rallying point for women’s health issues and the leading edge of women’s rising consciousness about how they are treated by the medical profession and medical cure research.

Far from being ashamed of having breast cancer, celebrities have embraced the chance to raise public awareness about early detection and the fact that breast cancer is not necessarily life-threatening. Christina Applegate, the Emmy-nominated lead of the popular TV show Samantha Who? and alum of Married With Children, is one of a host of stars who appeared in the multi-network television special, “Stand Up To Cancer” to raise funds for cancer research. She knows from personal experience that detecting cancer early and undergoing treatment means that cancer is not a death sentence.

I know that cancer cannot only be cured, but can also be one of the most powerful wake-up calls you will ever receive in your life. It was in mine. I heard those awful words-”You have cancer”-when I was in my mid-twenties. It started me on a great adventure that dramatically changed the direction of my life. Cured of the cancer by what medical doctors would call a “miraculous” healing, I left my position as a corporate attorney and spent the next decades journeying and learning in the realm of shamans, sages, and healers.

But my healing went much further than merely releasing me from a physical disease. In the course of what I learned about consciousness and healing, I was also able to release the deep wounds to my soul from having been sexually abused by my father from a very young age.

Christina was only 36 years old when she heard the words no one wants to hear. Even though her mother had survived breast cancer twice, Christina said, “… you don’t think it’s gonna happen to me.” Based on her family history and testing positive for the breast cancer gene, Christina went ahead with a double mastectomy despite being diagnosed with cancer in only one breast, followed by reconstructive surgery. “I’m going to have cute boobs ’til I’m 90,” she joked.

She is also proud of being an inspiration to many. At the Emmy awards, Applegate said, “For me to have a voice and be the voice of a 30-something-year-old girl going through this and dispelling the misnomers that it’s an older woman’s disease is a big part of this for me… every day I get e-mails not even just from people I know, but from people I don’t know who I’ve helped. And that to me is what I’m most grateful for.”

Over 2.4 million women in the U.S. have survived breast cancer. The list of celebrities who have survived breast cancer is long, impressive in that these highly visible women chose to come forward rather than hide what was happening to them. It includes singer Melissa Etheridge, who performed on television while bald from chemotherapy; Edie Falco, who battled cancer while still acting on The Sopranos; activist Gloria Steinem, who has been cancer free since the 1980s; Charlie’s Angel Kate Jackson survived two bouts, while Angel Jaclyn Smith was able to treat hers with a lumpectomy and radiation; Olivia Newton John; Suzanne Somers, who opted for alternative therapy and holistic medicine; journalist Linda Ellerbee; L.A. Law star Jill Eikenberry; Ann Jillian; Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor, who returned to work six days after her mastectomy; Lynn Redgrave; Cokie Roberts; Shirley Temple Black. The list could go on.

The death rate from breast cancer has gone down 2.2 percent per year from 1990 to 2004. Part of that success is the fact that women have learned how to advocate on their own behalf. Gynecological oncologist Dr. Carolyn Runowicz, herself a breast cancer survivor and one-time president of the American Cancer Society, says, “In the old days, we used to be paternalistic, and tell patients what to do. Now we lay out all the choices for the patients.” Patients need to know what type of tumor they have and how fast it’s growing, and they have more time to plan out a treatment strategy than they think. The newest precise treatments put more power in the hands of women; they can read up on the latest research and challenge their doctors to help them find the most effective course of action.

While undergoing medical treatment is a major component in dealing with breast cancer, there are complimentary treatments that improve a woman’s chances of truly healing-not only the disease itself, but the emotional and psychological issues that may have contributed to getting cancer in the first place.

One powerful tool to have in the Surviving Cancer tool bag is journal writing. I have always taught that expressing one’s emotions-as honestly as possible-on the pages of a journal is a very healing and life-affirming practice. The Journal of Clinical Oncology published the results of a scientific study from the University of Kansas that showed writing during cancer treatment contributed to the healing process. You can write about the loss and devastation you feel, and about the incredible discoveries you make along the way about all aspects of yourself-the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual realms we all inhabit. You can write letters (which you never have to send) to anyone who has hurt you, or who you have hurt. You can even write directly to the cancer itself.

Write about how cancer has changed your thoughts and actions. Do you feel differently about aging, about love, about the bittersweet joys of everyday life? If you need help, there are some great books in which brave writers have taken their stories public. There’s Art.Rage.Us: Art and Writing by Women with Breast Cancer with an introduction by Jill Eikenberry and an epilogue by Terry Tempest Williams; Becoming Whole: Writing Your Healing Story by Linda Joy Myers; Uplift: Secrets from the Sisterhood of Breast Cancer Survivors by Barbara Delinsky; Voices of Breast Cancer: The Healing Companion: Stories for Courage, Comfort and Strength by The Healing Project; and When Words Heal: Writing Through Cancer by Sharon A. Bray.

These days, you can also start a blog to share your story and find endless support online for your situation.

Every effort that you make to heal yourself on every level helps to heal the breast cancer. Dr. Deepak Chopra puts it this way in his DVD Return to Wholeness: Envisioning Your Recovery From Cancer (www.cancervisualization.com), “Mainstream medicine scoffed at the inner healer-and still does-to cover its own ignorance. When I went to medical school 40 years ago, ‘healer’ was a dirty word because nobody really knew what the body’s healing system was capable of. Now we are getting a glimpse, and the powers of self-healing appear to be immense. Yet until we know more, the role of healer falls upon each woman. You are the mystery of healing and also the solver of that mystery. In place of fear, you can acquire so much from the experience of cancer: courage, hope, self-awareness, power, and love for your body.”

So take heart. As Christina Applegate knows, “Yes, it’s hard. It sucks. But I’m not a victim.” Her battle with cancer has helped her learn to seize the day-a “be here now” attitude we can all embrace.
