Half of Germany was running on solar power! German solar power plants produced a world record 22 gigawatts of electricity – equal to 20 nuclear power stations at full capacity – through the midday hours of Friday and Saturday! Die Atom-Mafia hat im Lauf der letzten Jahrzehnte allein in Germany weit mehr als 100 Milliarden € staatliche Subventionen abkassiert und somit den technischen Fortschritt im Bereich der Erneuerbaren Energien stark behindert! Ohne die subventionierte Atommafia wäre der Anteil der Stromversorgung durch regenerative Energien oder alternative Energien das ganze Jahr über noch wesentlich höher! http://goo.gl/bn8ZA ● http://goo.gl/L8093 ← Half Of Germany running on Solar power!

Es gibt derzeit kein anderes Land auf der Erde, in dem Solaranlagen mit einer Leistung von über 20 000 MW Strom produzieren können.

Turmeric extract — curcumin derived from turmeric — may protect heart after surgery: half of those patients were given one-gram curcumin capsules to take 4 times a day, starting 3 days before their surgery and continuing for 5 days afterwards: people on curcumins had a 65% lower chance of heart attack. One limitation was that the study was relatively small. Another is that while curcumins are thought to be safe, there could be side effects at very large doses. April 16, 2012

Investors Pay to Lend Germany Money! While many euro-zone nations are struggling to obtain credit, investors are practically throwing money at Germany. The country on Monday raised almost 4 billion euros in six-month debt at a negative interest rate. In effect, investors paid Germany to be able to lend it money. The move highlights the economic imbalances in crisis-ridden Europe! Investors in Europe are so worried about the euro crisis and so desperate to find a safe haven for their cash that they decided to forego an interest rate, and even paid a premium, for the privilege of lending Germany money on Monday! http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/0,1518,808080,00.html ★ → "Erstmals haben Investoren dem deutschen Staat eine Prämie gezahlt, um ihm Geld leihen zu dürfen.

Ein solch negativer Zinssatz kommt zustande, wenn für eine Anleihe mehr bezahlt wird als die Summe aus Nennwert und Zinskupon. "Das hat es bislang noch nie gegeben", sagte ein Sprecher der Bundesfinanzagentur zu Reuters. "Die Anleger bezahlen eine gewisse Prämie dafür, dass sie dem deutschen Staat Geld leihen."

Turmeric is an amazing painkiller & has an anti-inflammatory effect

Unlike the orthodox mainstream medicine: turmeric is - without any bad side effect - the most efficient home remedy for sore throat!
Turmeric is the most powerful antioxidant and natural painkiller on this planet! Around the world, especially in India, TURMERIC or CURCUMIN from turmeric is used in place of NSAIDs without any nasty side effects to the stomach, heart, liver and kidneys. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are usually abbreviated to NSAIDs. The most prominent members of this group of drugs are aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen.
Turmeric used for thousands of years in the Indian Materia Medica, holds a high place in alternative medicine as a well-tried "cleanser" (detoxifier) of the body. Curcumin of turmeric is on a margin between ancient food customs and cutting-edge medicine. Curcumin is an immunsystem stimulator that can modulate the activation of T cells, B cells, macrophages, neutrophils & natural killer cells; downregulate various proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, and enhance antibody responses. Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic properties of turmeric extract are much more potent than garlic, devil's claw, and salmon oil.
Immune boosting turmeric powder contains 3% to 5% curcumin - a polyphenol.
Curcumin was first isolated from turmeric in 1815, and the structure was delineated in 1910 as diferuloylmethane. Curcumin has an absorption maximum around 420 nm.
Some benefits of curcumin, such as the potential protection from colon cancer, may not require systemic absorption. In 2007, a polymeric nanoparticle encapsulated formulation of curcumin ("nanocurcumin") has been synthesized which has the potential to bypass many of the shortcomings associated with free curcumin, such as poor solubility and poor systemic bioavailability. Nanocurcumin particles have a size of less than 100 nanometers on average, and demonstrate comparable to superior efficacy compared to free curcumin in human cancer cell line models. However, actual in vivo absorption has not been demonstrated with this nanoparticle.
The principal turmeric component curcumin has been shown to be as effective as cortisone and phenylbutazone in decreasing inflammation. It contains pain relievers that stop the neurotransmitter substance P from sending its pain signals to the brain. It also works in several ways to decrease inflammation by reducing prostaglandin activity. Researchers also believe that curcumin increases cortisone's anti-inflammatory action by making the body more sensitive to this hormone. Turmeric is a safe and effective pain killer, so reach for it instead of aspirin or other pain killers (but remember to look for the source of your pain as well)! Curcumin reportedly has a similar action to that of aspirin and aspirin-like anti-inflammatory agents. However, an advantage of curcumin over aspirin is claimed, since curcumin, unlike aspirin, is reported to selectively inhibit synthesis of inflammatory prostaglandins but does not affect the synthesis of prostacyclin. Curcumin may be preferable for individuals who are prone to vascular thrombosis and require anti-inflammatory and/or anti-arthritic therapy.
So the next time you sit down to a curry dinner, consider that you are doing far more for your body than simply giving it a flavorful meal. EGCG (green tea) and curcumin (turmeric) inhibit cancer cells. So it makes sense to drink green tea along with a meal spiced with turmeric for double-boosted anti-cancer protective effects.
A dreadful US biopiracy: Since India won a claim against two US scientists who shamelessly patented turmeric in march 1995, the tide of interest may naturally be driven in part by Asian pride in phytomedicinal heritage. The global pharmaceutical corporations were very interested in owning patents for Curcumin and Turmeric because of the much heralded scientific evidence and the long history of its healing properties. ◄ ► http://www.american.edu/ted/turmeric.htm ►►►► Curcumin from turmeric causes a substantial increase in intracellular Glutathione Levels ◄ ► http://molpharm.aspetjournals.org/cgi/content/full/61/3/554

MOST DISEASES ARE CAUSED BY DYSREGULATED INFLAMMATION. THE CURCUMIN OF TURMERIC DOWNREGULATES THE EXPRESSION OF COX-2, AN ENZYME RESPONSIBLE FOR INFLAMMATION AND PAIN.
THE MOST POTENT AND SAFE ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AND PAINKILLING NATURAL REMEDY IS THE UNPROCESSED TURMERIC POWDER FROM CERTIFIED ORGANIC PRODUCTION: A LEVEL TEASPOON TWICE OR THREE TIMES A DAY OR EVEN MUCH MORE! IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT TURMERIC WORKS BEST WHEN TAKEN A HEAPED TABLESPOON MELTED IN YOUR MOUTH IN A SMALL AMOUNT OF LIQUID FOR SEVERAL MINUTES - ALWAYS IN THE MORNING AND IN THE EVENING ALL THE YEAR ROUND! WHOLE TURMERIC IS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN ISOLATED CURCUMIN, ITS MAJOR CONSTITUENT. BE PATIENT: THE FULL BENEFIT TAKES TWO MONTHS TO DEVELOP.
No matter how bad your genetics are: TURMERIC DIETS ALWAYS WORK AND UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES - DAILY CONSISTENT INTAKE OF ORGANIC TURMERIC POWDER PROVIDED! Highly recommended: TURMERIC only from certified organic production only!

Native to India, turmeric is one of nature's most powerful healers. Among others, it is a great natural painkiller and inhibitor of the cox-2 enzyme! Furthermore a sensationally effective antioxidant that might be used to treat skin inflammations. The most of the medicinal properties of this spice have been slowly revealing themselves over the centuries. Long known for its anti-inflammatory properties, recent research has revealed that turmeric is a natural wonder, proving beneficial in the treatment of many different health conditions from cancer to Alzheimer's disease.
TUMERIC IS ONE OF THE MARVELOUS MEDICINAL SPICES OF THE WORLD. ITS MAIN ACTIVE INGREDIENT IS CURCUMIN WHICH GIVES TURMERIC ITS INTENSE CADMIUM YELLOW COLOR. CURCUMIN, STUDIES SHOW, IS AN ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AGENT ON A PAR WITH CORTISONE, AND HAS REDUCED INFLAMMATION IN ANIMALS AND SYMPTOMS OF RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS IN HUMANS. IN OTHER TESTS, IT LOWERED CHOLESTEROL, HINDERED PLATELET AGGREGATION (BLOOD CLOTTING), PROTECTED THE LIVER FROM TOXINS, BOOSTED STOMACH DEFENSES AGAINST ACID, LOWERED BLOOD SUGAR IN DIABETICS, AND WAS A POWERFUL ANTAGONIST OF NUMEROUS CANCER-CAUSING AGENTS.

Turmeric is native to Indonesia and southern India, where it has been harvested and utilized as a medicine for more than 6000 years. Nutritional science continues to discover turmeric's anti-tumor, anti- inflammatory, anti-viral, pro-cardio and painkilling effects. In December of 2004 researchers at U.C.L.A. discovered that turmeric was able to break up human Alzheimer's plaques implanted in mice. In a 2005 article published in the Journal of Cancer Research, researchers at M.D. Anderson Cancer Research Center in Houston Texas discovered that turmeric had the ability to stop the spread of human breast and colon cancer cells. I consider turmeric to be one of the best kept secrets from the world of natural medicine.

Potential of resveratrol in anticancer and anti-inflammatory therapy - Resveratrol is predominantly found in turmeric, red wine grapes, red peanut membrane & bilberries. Resveratrol exhibits several physiological activities including anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities in vitro and in experimental animal models, as well as in humans. Anticancer activity of this compound is mainly due to induction of apoptosis via several pathways, as well as alteration of gene expressions, all leading to a decrease in tumor initiation, promotion, and progression. Resveratrol exhibits anti-inflammatory activity through modulation of enzymes and pathways that produce mediators of inflammation and also induction of programmed cell death in activated immune cells. Resveratrol has been shown to produce no adverse effects, even when consumed at high concentrations. Hence, resveratrol possesses good potential to be used as an adjunctive or alternative therapy for cancer and inflammatory diseases.
(!) The creator of this little blog is wildly enamored of turmeric - the best natural NSAID (non steroidal anti inflammatory drug) throughout the world.

Haarsträubende US-Biopiraterie: Im März 1995 wurde den beiden indischstämmigen Forschern Suman K. Das und Hari Har P. Cohly von der medizinischen Fakultät der University of Mississippi ein Patent (US 5.401.504) auf Kurkuma in der Verwendung als Wundmittel erteilt. Nach einer Klage des Indian Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) gegen das US Patent Office wurde dieses und weitere mit Kurkuma in Zusammenhang stehende Patente gelöscht. Die Kläger konnten mehrere schriftliche Nachweise erbringen, dass Kurkuma bereits seit tausenden von Jahren für die Behandlung von Wunden und Ausschlägen verwendet wird und die medizinische Verwendung daher keine neue Erfindung sei.---
Lt. WHO-Statistik anno 2006 weisen die Länder Osteuropas (Ungarn, Tschechien, Slowakei) mit 300 bis 400 Fällen auf 100 000 Einwohner die höchsten Krebsraten auf, dicht gefolgt von den westlichen Industrienationen wie z. B. den Vereinigten Staaten und Kanada mit 260 Fällen auf 100000 Einwohner. Hingegen ist die Zahl der Krebserkrankungen in Indien, dem Land mit dem weltweit höchsten Pro-Kopf-Verbrauch von Kurkuma, wesentlich niedriger und liegt bei annähernd 100 Fällen auf 100000 Einwohner.
Nicht nur die Erkrankungsrate ist ungleich verteilt, auch die in verschiedenen Ländern auftretenden Krebsarten variieren enorm. Sieht man einmal vom Lungenkrebs ab, der (aufgrund des Rauchens und des Radongehalts der Raumluft) ziemlich gleichmäßig über den Globus verteilten Krebsart, so treten im allgemeinen in den Industrieländern andere Krebsarten häufiger auf als in den asiatischen Ländern. Die Liste der Krebsarten in den Vereinigten Staaten und Kanada führen neben dem Lungenkrebs in dieser Reihenfolge Dickdarm-, Brust- und Prostatakrebs an, während die Häufigkeit dieser Krebsarten in den asiatischen Ländern weit hinter der von Magen-, Speiseröhren- und Leberkrebs liegt.

Apr 28, 2009: Swine Flu Cytokine Storm Cures - Turmeric & Fish Oil Provide Anti-Inflammatory Protection ◄ ►
http://diseases-viruses.suite101.com/article.cfm/swine_flu_cytokine_storm_cures

A field in summer - a picturesque scenery in Germany

A FIELD IN SUMMER - a picturesque scenery in Germany
Et ceterum censeo: TURMERIC - the spice of life! An ancient remedy enlivens your food as well as your brain and your body! It certainly couldn't hurt to start incorporating more turmeric into your diet.
The only inconvenience found with turmeric is that it may have a mild to moderate cholesterol lowering effect in people. This might be good for most people however it should raise a red flag to those on blood thinners. Just be sure to talk to your doctor first before using turmeric by the spoonful.
TAKING GREAT PAINS TO COPE WITH PAIN It is estimated that 3 out of 4 people will experience chronic pain + inflammation at some point in their life.
A number of natural compounds exhibit potent anti-inflammatory actions without the harmful side effects of their synthetic counterparts, and can be effective adjuncts to pain management. Included in this list is CURCUMIN, an extract found in TURMERIC. Scientific studies have confirmed that CURCUMIN has the widest range of anti-inflammatory activity of any known natural substance, including the inhibition of both Cox-1 and Cox-2 enzymes.
TURMERIC has many active constituents that exhibit inhibitory effects on inflammatory compounds in the body, showing a clinical benefit in the management of many musculoskeletal disorders including arthritis + myalgias (Myalgia means "muscle pain").
In terms of nutritional modifications, increasing dietary intake of beneficial omega-3 essential fatty acids, while decreasing omega-6 fatty acids, appears to have some of the same positive effects as COX suppression. Many double-blind trials involving fish oil with high potency EPA + DHA have shown that omega-3 plays an important role in the modulation of the inflammatory process, and appears to be extremely effective in reducing inflammation in both chronic and acute states.

►►► Turmeric summary: Curcumin (diferuloylmethane) is an orange-yellow component of turmeric (Curcuma longa), a spice often found in curry powder. In recent years, considerable interest has been focused on curcumin due to its use to treat a wide variety of disorders without any nasty side effects! It is one of the major curcuminoids of turmeric, which impart its characteristic yellow colour. It was used in ancient times on the Indian subcontinent to treat various illnesses such as rheumatism, bodyache, skin diseases, intestinal worms, diarrhoea, intermittent fevers, hepatic disorders, biliousness, urinary discharges, dyspepsia, inflammations, constipation, leukoderma, amenorrhea, and colic. Curcumin has the potential to treat a wide variety of inflammatory diseases including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, psoriasis, etc, through modulation of numerous molecular targets. ►►► SUPERFOOD TURMERIC ON THE BRAIN - fights as an everyday diet Alzheimer's disease

TURMERIC THE GOLDEN SPICE OF LIFE SINCE ANCIENT TIME

E.g. TURMERIC (the main ingredient in curry) has powerful anti-inflammatory properties, comparable to the effects of hydrocortisone. It's effective in reducing symptoms of irritable bowel disease and rheumatoid arthritis. It's also a potent antioxidant and has cancer-preventive properties.
E.g. GINGER is also a potent anti-inflammatory, acting through the same biological mechanism as the COX-2 inhibitors like Vioxx--but without the deadly side effects. Ginger is also an anti-coagulant, which helps keep the blood from forming clots and also soothes irritated stomachs and nausea.
E.g. CINNAMON helps lower blood sugar levels by making cells more sensitive to insulin (similar to the action of antidiabetic drugs).

The common cooking spice turmeric helps prevent against Type 2 diabetes. Furthermore, turmeric is an amazing painkiller and anti-inflammatory. Studies have shown turmeric to be as analgesic, and much safer than nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories like aspirin and phenylbutazone - but without their nasty side effects. Aspirin also damages cartilage - which is ironic since it is often prescribed for the pain of osteoarthritis. Aspirin damages the liver & kidneys and both suppress the immune system. Aspirin causes ulcers and damage to the intestinal tract.
Turmeric has anti-arthritis powers. Rheumatoid arthritis arises when the immune system mistakenly attacks tissue in the joints, leading to inflammation, pain and progressive joint damage. Researchers found that turmeric inhibited a key protein called NF-kappa B, which controls the activity of a number of inflammatory substances harmful to the joints in RA.

First U.S. Town Powered Completely By Wind. 4 wind turbines that supply electricity to the small town of 1,300 residents

First U.S. Town Powered Completely By Wind
Rock Port, Mo., has an unusual crop: 4 wind turbines that supply electricity to the small town of 1,300 residents make it the first community in the United States to operate solely on wind power.
The turbines will also provide savings to rural electric companies and will provide electric service for at least 20 years, the anticipated lifetime of the turbines.
"Anybody who is currently using Rock Port utilities can expect no increase in rates for the next 15 to 20 years," Crawford said.

† ♫ ♫ ♫ Pachelbel's Canon in D major is one of the most recognised and famous classical compositions

(* August 1653 in Nürnberg; † 3. März 1706 ebenda) Johann Pachelbel was the last great composer of the Nuremberg tradition and the last important southern German composer who brought the south German organ tradition to its peak. He composed a large body of sacred and secular music. Pachelbel's work enjoyed enormous popularity during his lifetime; he had many pupils and his music became a model for the composers of south and central Germany. Today, Pachelbel is best known for the Canon in D major. It was written in or around 1680 and is one of the most famous pieces of sacred music.

† 2.4.2005 Karol Wojtyla: Tagelang päpstliche Hofberichterstattung auf allen Kanälen

KIRCHENKRITIKER Drewermann vergleicht Papst mit Ayatollah Khomeini
Mein Kommentar zu diesem SPIEGEL-Artikel 04.04.2005: DER SPIEGEL hat nun wirklich keine Zivilcourage. Ins scheinheilige Gewand der Distanzierung kleidet er die mehr als berechtigte Kirchenkritik DREWERMANNs. Viel drastischere Formulierungen sind jetzt überfällig angesichts der seit Jahrhunderten unverändert extrem frauenfeindlichen Politik der Katholischen Kirche. Frauen dürfen nach wie vor die hochdotierten Posten weder als Priester noch als Bischöfe noch als Kardinäle einnehmen. Diese bleiben nach wie vor der erlauchten Männlichkeit vorbehalten. Völlig unverständlich, daß angesichts dieser noch immerwährenden mittelalterlichen, anti-emanzipatorischen, chauvinistischen Zustände innerhalb der Katholischen Kirche die katholischen Frauen nicht mit einer massiven Kirchenaustrittswelle reagieren, um endlich die maßlos arroganten Kirchenfürsten von ihrem Thron zu jagen.
Der gegenwärtige Medienterror zum Tod des Papstes macht wieder einmal eines sehr deutlich: Im Papst verehren Millionen von Menschen ihre eigene Dummheit und Ignoranz. Vom 2. bis 8. April 2005 gab es hierzulande keine einzige Nachrichtensendung mehr, die für Leute außerhalb der Katholischen Kirche wegen der klerikalen Platitüden und Verlogenheiten auch nur einen Augenblick zumutbar gewesen war. Die gleichgeschaltete Hofberichterstattung und Meinungsmache läßt allergrößte Zweifel an der deutschen Medienwelt aufkommen. Der katholische Fundamentalismus scheint sich über jegliche unabhängige Berichterstattung hinwegsetzen zu können.

Doederlein's bacillus >> gesunde Vaginalflora - optimales Scheidenmilieu

Münchener Frauenarzt Albert Döderlein (1860-1941)
1892 als Namensgeber des Lactobacillus acidophilus vaginalis Doederlein
The normal vaginal bacteria is called Doederlein's bacillus

Lactobacillus acidophilus wird bei Störungen der Vaginalflora eingesetzt.

Eine gesunde Vaginalflora kann sich nur im leicht sauren Milieu entwicklen. Durch viele unterschiedliche Gründe kann der ph-Wert des Scheidenmilieus aus dem Gleichgewicht geraten und sich ins basische verschieben.

Das kann eine allgemeine Schwäche des Immunsystems durch Krankheiten oder Streß sein oder die Folge einer Antibiotikatherapie, aber auch zu intensive Hygienemaßnahmen oder häufiger Partnerwechsel.

Lactobacillus acidophilus ist ein Milchsäurebakterium. Es säuert das Scheidenmilieu an und sorgt so dafür, daß das physiologische Gleichgewicht wieder hergestellt wird.
Beschwerden wie Trockenheit oder Juckreiz werden so gelindert.

Ähnlich wie im Darm bilden auch die Milchsäurebakterien Lactobacillus acidophilus einen hoch effizienten Abwehrfilm. Sogar gegenüber dem extrem aggressiven Staphylococcus aureus, einem sehr gefürchteten, gegen die meisten Antibiotica resistenten Keim, scheinen die Milchsäurebakterien Lactobacillus acidophilus (erhältlich als Döderlein-Stäbchen) Abwehrstoffe auszuschwitzen (Milchsäure)!!!

It all comes down to maintaining a healthy balance. With the exception of trichomoniasis, the root cause of most vaginal infections is an imbalance in the vaginal flora. The Döderlein flora is named after the Munich gynecologist, Albert Döderlein who discovered its existence in the vaginal flora of healthy women in 1892. It is composed of a mix of 10 to 20 types of Lactobacillus bacteria. Döderlein observed that the Lactobacillus bacteria produced lactic acid, which prevents an overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria, by forming a protective biofilm at the surface of the vaginal mucosa.


Münchener Frauenarzt Albert Döderlein (1860-1941)
1892 als Namensgeber des Lactobacillus acidophilus vaginalis Doederlein
The normal vaginal bacteria is called Doederlein's bacillus

Albert Doederlein wurde am 5. Juli 1860 in Augsburg geboren.

Er studierte Medizin in Erlangen und promovierte 1884.

1887 wechselte er mit seinem damaligen Chef Paul Zweifel nach Leipzig, wo er seine bakteriologischen Forschungen vorantrieb und habilitierte.
Als Namensgeber des Lactobacillus acidophilus vaginalis Doederlein, auch Doederlein-Stäbchen wurde der Name Doederlein in der Medizin unsterblich. Dabei war er nicht der erste, der diese Bakterien sah, allerdings erkannte er als Erster den Einfluß auf das sauere Mileu der Scheide und die relative Keimfreiheit derselben.
1894 wurde er nach Groningen berufen, 1897 nach Tübingen und 1907 nach München.
1934 emeritierte er mit 74 Jahren, am 10. Dezember 1941 starb Albert Doederlein in München.
Veröffentlichungen: Neben einem Leitfaden zur geburtshilflichen Operation schrieb er einige Kapitel in Otto Küstner's Lehrbuch der Gynäkologie.


The Natural Treatment of Vaginal Infections

It may come as a surprise to you, but vaginitis is one of the most common problems in clinical medicine today. An inflammation of the mucous membranes lining the vagina, vaginitis is characterized by vaginal irritation, an itchy burning sensation and abnormal vaginal discharge. According to a study conducted by Healthy Woman Magazine, 1,427,000 Canadian women treated themselves for one or more vaginal infections in 2000. Many women are plagued with recurrent vaginal infections for no apparent reason

Did you know that there are different types of vaginal infections? While most vaginitis sufferers lump all vaginal irritations into the yeast infection category, there are actually three different types of vaginitis: bacterial vaginosis, candidiasis and trichomoniasis. Candidiasis and bacterial vaginosis are both caused by disturbances in the naturally occurring vaginal flora. Candidiasis, commonly called a yeast infection, is the result of an overgrowth of candida albicans; whereas, bacterial vaginosis is due to a change in the natural balance among the different types of bacteria in the vagina. Characterized by painful urination, trichomoniasis is an infection of the uro-genital tract and is caused by a single celled protozoan, called trichomoniasis. Trichomoniasis is a common STD referred to by some as “trich”.

It all comes down to maintaining a healthy balance. With the exception of trichomoniasis, the root cause of most vaginal infections is an imbalance in the vaginal flora. The Döderlein flora is named after the Munich gynecologist, Albert Döderlein who discovered its existence in the vaginal flora of healthy women in 1892. It is composed of a mix of 10 to 20 types of Lactobacillus bacteria. Döderlein observed that the Lactobacillus bacteria produced lactic acid, which prevents an overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria, by forming a protective biofilm at the surface of the vaginal mucosa.

It’s your body’s way of protecting itself from harmful bacteria. The Lactobacilli biofilm is the body’s own natural protection against vaginitis. By acidifying the vaginal area, producing anti-microbial hydrogen peroxide, competing for food with pathogenic microorganisms and adhering to epithelial cells of the vaginal mucosa leaving no space for invading pathogens, the naturally occurring Lactobacillus bacteria prevent invading microorganisms from taking hold. Under such acidic conditions, bacterial pathogens cannot grow and even those present are kept to asymptomatic levels. Thriving on glycogen stores produced by the vaginal mucosa after puberty, the Lactobacillus bacteria growth is directly affected by estrogen levels.

Sometimes it doesn’t have anything to do with your health habits. Did you know that low or high estrogen levels are contributing factors to vaginitis? Low estrogen levels significantly reduce the available glycogen-inhibiting Lactobacillus growth. Associated with menopause and natural hormone level changes prior to and following each menstrual cycle, low estrogen levels increase the risk of bacterial vaginosis infection. High estrogen levels, while important to control the pathogenic bacteria growth, may favour an overgrowth of Candida leading to a yeast infection, since Candida also grows on glycogen. Oral contraceptives with high estrogen levels or the use of antibiotics that destroy healthy vaginal flora both contribute to candidiasis.

Before running out to the pharmacy consider a healthy alternative. Today, women have access to many treatment options for vaginitis, including both pharmaceutical and over-the-counter probiotic vaginal suppositories. It is critical for a patient presenting a first time infection to confirm with an appropriate practitioner the type of infection prior to seeking alternative treatments. A standard treatment for vaginal infections in Europe for many years, there is currently only one probiotic approved for use in the treatment of bacterial vaginosis in Canada. This product is also approved for use in conjunction with other gynecological treatments, such as antibiotics and yeast infection treatments, and for symptomatic relief from candidiasis and trichomoniasis.

Did you know probiotics are suitable as a preventative therapy as well as to treat acute conditions? By fostering the growth of healthy Lactobacillus bacteria, probiotics work with the body’s natural defenses using microorganisms to restore or maintain the delicate balance. Containing active Lactobacillus strains and yogurt culture, probiotic treatments acidify the vagina inhibiting the growth of invading pathogens. Probiotic vaginal suppositories act as a protective barrier actually binding to the epithelial cells within the vaginal mucosa to prevent any other microorganisms from invading that space.

What can you do to maintain healthy flora? Vaginitis is exacerbated by stress, antibiotic use, diabetes, oral contraceptives, douching, as well as changes in hormone levels experienced during pregnancy and menopause. Conventional therapies used to treat vaginitis, including the common over-the-counter and prescription medications Metronidazol or Fluconazol, often fail to restore the natural vaginal flora leading to a high incidence of recurring infection. Women who are predisposed to vaginitis should consider avoiding antibiotics altogether or include a probiotic supplement to foster the growth of healthy vaginal flora.

By maintaining healthy habits and using probiotics for the prevention or treatment of vaginitis, women are taking charge of their vaginal health.

MONTIGNAC Die neue Trendkost mit glycaemic load

Glykämischer Index und glykämische Last, 15. Januar 2005, Rezensentin/Rezensent: bldpf (Mehr über mich) aus ERLANGEN Reiner Grißhammer Der glykämische Index (GI) beschreibt die Wirkung eines kohlenhydrathaltigen Lebensmittels auf den BlutGlucoseSpiegel. Er zeigt, wie schnell die aufgenommenen Kohlenhydrate in Glucose umgewandelt werden. Der GI wird beeinflußt von der Zusammensetzung des Lebensmittels, der Art der Zubereitung, der Anwesenheit von Enzyminhibitoren (extrem stark vorhanden z.B. in Kidney-Bohnen) und der Zusammensetzung der Mahlzeit. Der Konsum eines Lebensmittels mit einem niedrigen GI ist bei sehr vielen Menschen mit einem nachhaltigeren Sättigungsgrad verbunden. Zur Vorsicht bei Lebensmitteln mit hohem glykämischen Index kann allen Übergewichtigen und Abmagerungswilligen nur geraten werden! Neben dem Anstieg der BlutGlucoseKonzentration nach dem Verzehr kohlehydrathaltiger Lebensmittel sollte auf die darauf folgende Ausschüttung von Insulin besonders geachtet werden - unter Berücksichtigung der der Glykämischen Last (GL).
Glykämische Last (GL). Die glykämische Last berechnet man, indem man den glykämischen Index durch 100 dividiert und das Ergebnis mit der Menge der verzehrten Kohlenhydrate multipliziert. Beispiel: Rohe Möhren haben einen GI von ca. 30, 100 g rohe Möhren enthalten ca. 6,6 g Kohlenhydrate. Die GL von 100 g rohen Möhren beträgt also ca. 2(30/100) x 6,6 = 1,98. Die glykämische Last (GL) beinhaltet neben der Art der Kohlenhydrate also auch die aufgenommene Kohlenhydratmenge. Sie ist deshalb ein äußerst bedeutsamer Parameter für die Abschätzung des durch eine Mahlzeit ausgelösten Insulinbedarfs. Eine ernährungsphysiologisch relevante Tatsache ersten Ranges also, die jahrzehntelang von der sog. Schulmedizin weltweit sträflich mißachtet wurde - mit entsprechend katastrophalen Folgen für den bedrohlich zunehmenden Personenkreis der zuckerstoffwechsellabilen Menschen.
Der Kontext zwischen glykämischem Index bzw. glykämischer Last und ernährungsabhängigen Erkrankungen ist endlich Thema zahlreicher Untersuchungen, die belegen, daß eine langjährige Ernährung mit einem hohen glykämischen Index und einer hohen glykämischen Last die Entstehung von Übergewicht und Diabetes mellitus Typ II eindeutig fördert.Diäten mit niedriger glykämischer Last führen zu signifikant niedrigeren LDL- und Gesamt-Cholesterinspiegeln und zu signifikant niedrigeren Triglycerid-Spiegeln - im Vergleich zu einer Ernährung mit hoher glykämischer Last! Diese überfällige Erkenntnis und die konsequente Bereitschaft zur ihrer täglichen Umsetzung im Alltag kann für eine Millionenschar hierzulande und weltweit lebensrettend und lebensverlängernd sein! En detail heißt dies u.a.: Eine ballaststoffreiche gemüsebetonte Mischkost mit einem Anteil an Tofu, Milchprodukten, Eiern, fettem Seefisch und möglichst nicht rotem Fleisch hat einen positiven Effekt auf die Gesundheit und auf die Erzielung des idealen Körpergewichts (BMI 18 - 25). Im Bereich der kohlenhydratreicheren Lebensmittel sollte man diejenigen mit relativ niedriger glykämischer Last bevorzugen bzw. eine Mischung vornehmen. Hohe Blutzuckerspiegel und Insulinwerte sind bei immer mehr Menschen mit blutdrucksteigernder Gewichtszunahme eng verbunden. Wählt man im Regelfall Lebensmittel mit einer niedrigen glykämischen Last, wird der Blutzuckerspiegel auf ein optimales Maß gesenkt und Heißhunger verhindert. Der weltberühmte Erfolgsautor MONTIGNAC aus Paris beschreibt in seinem Buch sehr anschaulich und leichtverständlich seine höchst erfolgreiche Methode, läßt alltagstaugliche Rezepte und Praxistips einfließen und geizt nicht mit Graphiken, Abbildungen, Lebensmittellisten, Tabellen und einem hervorragenden Sachregister samt Inhaltsverzeichnis.

Low-carb diets can affect dieters' cognition skills - Low-carb dieters showed a gradual decrease on the memory-related tasks - This study demonstrates that the food you eat can have an immediate impact on cognitive behavior - While the brain uses glucose as its primary fuel, it has no way of storing it. Rather, the body breaks down carbohydrates into glucose, which is carried to the brain through the blood stream and used immediately by nerve cells for energy. Reduced carbohydrate intake should thus reduce the brain's source of energy. Therefore, researchers hypothesized that diets low in carbohydrates would affect cognitive skills.

No matter how bad your genetics are: Low carb diets work nevertheless, but such strict diets sometimes leave you feeling a little bit MISERABLE draining a portion of your energy.
"Positive Thinking", low calorie diets or low fat diets do not work!

Fat loss 4 everybody! Lose all of your excess fat tissue! Get skinny!
Some of the few foods which are very beneficial for burning fat:
# Fat Burning Food TURMERIC or Curcumin from TURMERIC - a teaspoon of turmeric a day keeps obesity at bay!
# Fat Burning Food Oatmeal stables blood-glucose levels.
Oats lowers cholesterol via high content of complex carbohydrates and water-soluble fiber which encourage slow digestion
# Fat Burning Food Hard Cheese (like Dry Jack or Parmesan)
More benefits: Vitamin D plays very important part in boosting the metabolism and 100 g Parmesan or Dry Jack a day deliver your daily dose of calcium and about 33 % of your vitamin D needs (400 IU a day). For the rest, hang out in the sunshine for about 20-30 minutes a day and cash sunshine for healthy bones.
# Fat Burning Food Garlic containing the compound allicin which has anti bacterial effects and helps reduce cholesterol & unhealthy fats. Garlic is also alleged to help regulate blood sugar levels.
