Supporting Research Bronchitis means inflammation of the air passages to the lungs. Bronchitis can be acute or chronic. Acute bronchitis is usually due to a viral infection that begins in your nose or sinuses and spreads to the airways. To be considered chronic, you must have a cough productive of sputum at least three months out of the year. Chronic bronchitis occurs most often in smokers and, together with emphysema, is known as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Signs and Symptoms Acute bronchitis Chronic bronchitis: Causes Acute bronchitis is usually caused by a virus, but can also be caused by bacteria. Generally, acute bronchitis is passed from person to person. The main causes of chronic bronchitis are cigarette smoking and prolonged exposure to air pollution or other irritants such as dust and grain.

Extractions: Water makes up the majority of every cell in our bodies. Water is the biggest part of our blood and lymphatic systems, carrying food and oxygen to your cells and carrying waste away. Water flushes toxins from our internal organs and systems and can help reduce the risk of debilitating diseases. Did you know proper hydration improves your appearance. You see, the water in your body reaches the skin last; if the body doesnt get enough water, your skin will feel the effects. When your body gets the proper amount of water, your skin will be smoother, softer, more supple and more wrinkle free. Drinking the right amount of water can help you lose weight. Water is quite possibly the single most important catalyst in losing and maintaining your weight. Water suppresses the appetite, helps your body metabolize stored fat deposits and helps rid your body of weight loss waste. Additionally, water increases the calories you burn with every day activities and especially during exercise.

Extractions: This article is a summary of a review article entitled Effect of Agricultural Methods on Nutritional Quality: A Comparison of Organic with Conventional Crops by Dr. Worthington which appeared in Alternative Therapies , Volume 4, 1998, pages 58-69. S ince the 1920s, when chemical fertilizers were first used commercially on a large scale, there have been claims that agricultural chemicals produce less healthful and less nutritious food crops. By the 1940s, the organic farming movement had begun, in part due to this belief that food grown using more traditional, chemical-free methods was more healthful. Foods grown by these methods came to be known as organic. Today, this notion has continued in the alternate health arena, and some alternative treatments, such as the Gerson cancer therapy, rely on food grown organically. But the question remains: is organically grown food more nutritious? There are several reasons why there has not been a solid answer to this question. The first is that the difference in terms of health effects is not large enough to be readily apparent. In other words, if people stayed well on an organic diet but got violently ill as a result of consuming food grown with chemical fertilizers and pesticides, then the difference would be perfectly obvious; however, this is not the case, and a more subtle difference, such as an 8% increase in the incidence of allergies, for example, is much more difficult to detect and easier to overlook.

Extractions: Samento®: New Remedy For An Ancient EnemyLyme Disease by James South, M.A Vitamin Research News, Vol. 18, Number 6, July 2004 Lyme disease was first recognized around 1975, when a mysterious outbreak of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis occurred around Lyme, Connecticut. In 1982, the causative agent of Lyme disease was discovered by Willy Burgdorfer. It turned out to be a spirochete (spiral-shaped bacterium) from the genus Borrelia, subsequently named Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb). As Lyme disease expert Jo Anne Whitaker, M.D., notes: Lyme disease is called the New Great Imitator because, like syphilis [the original Great Imitator], it attacks multiple organ systems and mimics many diseases. Both diseases are caused by spirochetes. Originally believed to be spread only through bites by the tiny deer tick (Ixodes dammini), it is now known to be potentially spread by many tick species, as well as bot-flies, mosquitoes and fleas. And in a recent article with 224 references, physicians W.T. Harvey and P. Salvato have offered persuasive evidence that Lyme disease is transmitted sexually and congenitally (by birth from an infected mother), as well as through breastfeeding.

However, the use of natural medicines is proportionally higher in Europe and Asia, with the Japanese and Chinese nearing total devotion to medicines derived from plants." It is also interesting to note: "In rural China, doctors are paid only when you are well. If you get sick, you don't pay them. As you can see, they have a vested interest in keeping you healthy. That is probably the reason the Chinese live longer and are healthier. Too bad we don't have that system here." - Ibid.

Sin embargo, se caraterizan por presentar de bajo a mediano contenido de proteína, minerales, digestibilidad, energía y altos valores de fibra. Consecuentemente son comunes los bajos niveles de producción, debido principalmente tanto a la calidad de la pastura, al tipo de animales empleado y a su manejo. Una de las vias para mejorar la calidad de la pastura es incluir las leguminosas en los potreros de gramíneas, debido a la capacidad que tienen de fijar el nitrógeno atmósferico, haciéndolo aprovechable indirectamente por las gramíneas a las cuales se encuentran asociados. De esta manera, se podrá disminuir el uso de fertilizantes, ya que las leguminosas fijan de 150 a 500 Kg N/ha/año y esto va a depender de la especie de leguminosa, de las condiciones edafoclimáticas y de las especies de gramíneas a las cuales se encuentran asociadas. Generalmente la ganadería de la zona alta andina, se caracteriza por utilizar animales de alto potencial genético, donde su alimentación se sustenta principalmente con el uso del pasto kikuyo (
