Cholesterol and Your Nutrient Depletion
Although there are many positive reasons for the use of statin drugs to reduce the ability of the liver to make cholesterol, these compounds may cause detrimental effects on depletion of certain nutrients in the body. In "Cholesterol and Your Nutrient Depletion" Julie Conquer, Ph.D. recommends specific nutritional supplements and discusses dietary alternatives for reducing cholesterol levels.

Integrative Dentistry
Root canals have been a source of controversy since the turn of the century, when they first were used to treat nerve damage. In "Root Canal Coverup, Fact or Fiction" Flora Parsa Stay, D.D.S. explains the process as performed by conventional dentists and biological dentists.

Healthy Woman Update
Osteoporosis occurs most commonly in post-menopausal women. In "Healthy Bones" Janet Zand, L.Ac., O.M.D. states it is essential to look at your lifestyle -- particularly proper exercise, diet, nutritional supplements, herbal medicine, and reduced use of caffeine, nicotene and alcohol.

"GMO Free: Exposing the Hazards of Biotechnology to Ensure the Integrity of our Food Supply" by Lim Li Ching and Mae-Wan Ho represents the research and concerns of many of these scientists. The evidence they have compiled makes a strong case for a worldwide ban on GM crops to make way for a comprehensive shift to sustainable agriculture and organic farming.

Nutrition Tips
In "Autumn 4-Day Menu Plan" Elson M. Haas, M.D. states that autumn gives us richer and denser foods that require more heat to prepare; these include whole grains, dried legumes, and hard squashes. Thus, there are more cooked foods, more calories, fats, and protein, less liquids, and often a few added pounds. Regular exercise, including stretching to maintain or improve flexibility, is also important during this more contractive time.

Vegetarian Recipe
Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine offers you a vegetarian recipe for "Chocolate Cake."

The Healer Within
The self-applied health enhancement methods movements are meant to be the seeds of your own inventiveness. In "Gentle Movements and Postures, Part II" Dr. Roger Jahnke reminds you not to sabotage your mastery by thinking they must be done a certain way. Make it up, make it fun, spread the word. When you have made contact with the extent to which gentle movement has a profound health effect, you have become a part of the solution to the medical crisis.

Music and Wellness
There's no doubt it, music has the power to orchestrate our emotional tone. In "Music and Medicine: The Universal Language of Mind, Body and Soul" Barry Bittman, M.D. reminds us that enjoyment, rather than performance, should be emphasized at all ages. For music to be healing, it has to resonate with one's soul - it must be comprehended deep within.
