  • A key part of caring for your hair is shampooing and this should be done every 7 to 14 days, says Bell." "You want to lather up with the right shampoo. Shampooing your hair makes the difference between healthy hair and a dry, brittle mass of fibers that just sit there lifeless. Shampoo should be done conscientiously and with special attention to what type of shampoo you are using. The purpose of a shampoo is to cleanse the hair and scalp and remove dandruff, dirt, and cosmetics. Shampooing also increases the circulation of blood and stimulates the scalp. Conditioning treatment is a must after a shampoo treatment. Our hair problems could be due to diet, medication, emotional upset, lack of rest, such as humidity and other climate environments.

  • The recommended dosage is 500 milliliters of beet juice (equivalent to just over 16 fluid ounces or 2 cups) daily to see significant results in lowering blood pressure. However, this and other studies warn that drinking more than an ounce of straight beet juice can be harmful to your system. If you own a juicer, doctors and nutritionists generally advice against consuming straight beet juice and recommend mixing it with other vegetable juices such as carrot or fruit juices like apple for dilution purposes.

Once swallowed, the acid in the stomach helps the nitrate enter the circulation of the blood therefore reducing pressure when the nitr...

  • Dear Dr. Gott: Do you have any information on "bee sting therapy" for the chronic pain of fibromyalgia? Dear Reader: This therapy dates back more than 3,000 years in China and involves placing live bees on strategic pressure points of a patient's body. It is similar to the needles used in acupuncture, but in this instance, the therapy uses the stingers to control the pain of such diseases as rheumatism, arthritis, shingles, lupus, herniated discs, MS, diabetes and fibromyalgia. The treatment relies mainly on the poison of the bees, which can help blood circulation, ease pain and reduce inflammation.

"Neurocardiogenic" refers to a reflex that takes place between nerves and the heart that brings on the faint. It's also called vasovagal reflex. The "vaso" refers to dilation of blood vessels...
