FEATURED ARTICLE:
1. FIBROMYALGIA:
Fibromyalgia is seldom seen outside of Western industrialized countries, leading researchers to theorize that
"Life-Style" or dietary factors may play a role. But theories are all thats available so far; no one yet knows
what causes this disease. Fibromyalgia is becoming well known as a condition that researchers believe may be
related to chronic fatigue syndrome. Possibly in response to stress, lack of sleep, and injury or infection, or
other trauma or disease, your muscles begin to ache. Pain might develop gradually and effect a wide area, or it
may come on suddenly and sharply in specific areas.
You might feel burning, stiffness, shooting pain, or and overall throbbing sensation. The soreness can center on
the shoulders, in the hip or upper thigh muscles, or the elbows and knees.
Perhaps Fibromyalgias most distinguishable feature is that the aches are often accompanied by anxiety,
depression, fatigue, or an inability to sleep. Doctors often call the sleep disturbances, non-restorative sleep,
you may be able to fall off to sleep, but when you wake up you dont feel rested. In fact, you may be even more
fatigue.
Symptoms of Fibromyalgia may worsen during periods of stress, over exertion, trauma, extreme temperature,
infections, or emotional crisis. Although the disorder isnt dangerous or life threatening, it can be very
disruptive. Unfortunately, Fibromyalgia is easily mistaken for other kinds of pain. But anti-inflammatory drugs
such as Naproxen and Ibuprofen seldom lessen Fibromyalgia pain.
IN RESEARCH FINDINGS:
People who have Fibromyalgia find that changing their diet, has helped more them any drug treatment or
sleeping pills.

2. Herbal:
GRAPE SEED:
From the seed of wine come powerful antioxidant and natural anti-inflammatory compounds called procyanidins.
Theyve been used to treat everything from varicose veins to poor night vision. FOR PEOPLE WITH with
Fibromyalgia, these compounds help to inhibit the inflammatory response, the chemical reactions responsible
for pain and soreness.
Typical dosage: 50 to 300 milligrams of oligomeric procyanidins
(OPCs) per day. Recommend that you start at a higher dose to saturate cells and them taper down to a lower dose.

5. FACTS & TIPS :
Water Or Coke ?
We all know that water is important, do we know what coke is made of?
WATER
1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.
3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%.
4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a
University of Washington study.
5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain
for up to 80% of sufferers.
7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty
focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.
8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of
breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. And now for the properties of
COKE
1. In many states (in the USA) the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the truck to remove blood from
the highway after a car accident.
2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of coke and it will be gone in two days.
3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then
flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous China.
4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap
aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away
the corrosion.
6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Applying a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and
bake. Thirty minutes before the ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for
a sumptuous brown gravy.
8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run
through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your
windshield.
For Your Info;
1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days.
Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase in
osteoporosis.
2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the Hazardous material place
cards reserved for Highly corrosive materials.
3. The distributors of coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years!
Now the question is, would you like a glass of water or coke?
