Vegan, Lacto-Vegetarian & Lacto-Ovo Vegetarian Nutrition (C) by C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D.
" All raw and all vegetarian diets have been fads pushed by many people. One Canadian back in the 70's insisted on all raw because it prevented cancer. He died of prostate cancer and, yes, monkeys do get cancer. Indeed even cacti get cancer!
Ellen G. White, founder of Seventh Day Adventism, and a phenomenal prophet, emphasized a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet. BUT she warned that when you are ill, you need meat!"

Anti-Inflammatory Herbs Versus Drugs by Dr. Norm Shealy
Inflammation is perhaps the most common cause of pain. Inflammatory reactions are major contributors to Alzheimer's disease and to Atherosclerosis, including coronary heart disease. Free radicals and C-Reactive protein are the chief lab tests indicating an inflammatory response. Inflammation may occur because of an infection but also is a reaction to trauma and toxins. Anti-inflammatory drugs are increasingly being touted as useful in treating pain, as well as for preventing Alzheimer's and coronary heart disease.

Nettles! by Patricia Neill
"Wood nettles like to grow by forest streams or rivers. Stinging nettles prefer sunny areas. If you have a creek or stream or river near you, look along the banks for nettles. If you get stung by the nettles, jewelweed is usually growing nearby. Cut the stem of the jewelweed and it will ease the nettles sting. So do dock and plantain leaves. Stick some plantain in your pocket before heading out to gather nettles. "

Cilantro – the natural chelator by Dr. David G. Williams
"There's nothing I like more than learning about inexpensive, common herbs or spices that exhibit unusual healing properties. Historically, the use of herbs and spices in cooking evolved as a method to preserve foods and make them safer to store and eat. We've grown accustomed to using these items to enhance or accentuate the flavors of food, but researchers continue to discover herbs have much more to offer than just good taste. Cilantro is such an herb and one of its medicinal benefits was uncovered through the work of Dr. Yoshiaki Omura."

Camelback Adaptive Program: Ski Lessons For The Disabled
"The programs goal is to teach independence, responsibility and to give the participants an opportunity to interact at length with peers who share similar experiences. While the focus is on having fun, the instructors, counselors and coaches involved, all realize that the peer connection is one of the most important aspects of the event....Skiers are then broken into groups according to ski abilities. Once done, they are taken out in their groups, with their coaches or instructors. Some go with great eagerness, others with great trepidation, but by the end of the first day, they return from the slopes happy, laughing, and eager for the next day."

Chakra Balance and Automatic Chakra Balance™ By Dyan Garris
"
We have our physical bodies that we can see, feel, touch, and we have our spiritual bodies, which surround our physical bodies. The chakras are contained in our spiritual bodies/energy field/aura, which we are not so acutely aware of because we cannot so readily see, feel, and touch these in the same way. But they are definitely there and are designed to work in concert with our physical bodies, just as a knee is designed to work with a leg, and an arm with a shoulder. As so, they are indeed an important part of our bodies."

Flax Seed: The Low Carb Whole Grain by Laura Dolson
"It may be tiny, but it’s mighty: The flax seed carries one of the biggest nutrient payloads on the planet. And while it’s not technically a grain, it has a similar vitamin and mineral profile to grains, while the amount of fiber, antioxidants, and
Omega-3 fatty acids
in flax leaves grains in the dust. Additionally, flax seed is very low in carbohydrates, making it ideal for people who limit their intake of starches and sugars. And its combination of healthy fat and high fiber content make it a great food for weight loss and maintenance -- many dieters have found that flax seed has been a key to keeping them feeling satisfied. Flax seed is high in most of the B vitamins, magnesium, and manganese..."
