iHealthTube Featuring: Does Eating More of This Make You Healthier?
Recent research is pointing to healthier overall lives if we eat something that most of us don't get enough of. Also find out more about fasting and how it can help certain people, and understand what that extra weight around the midsection might be doing to your brain! [Video and more below]
What is The Half Day Diet?
Studies consistently show that limiting carbohydrate intake can cause automatic weight loss.
Unfortunately, if you’ve tried to lose weight by cutting carbs before, you probably know about the intense cravings for carb-rich foods, and the inevitable binges that made you gain back all the weight (and more).
This is why so many people failed to lose weight with a low carb diet (even though it works). They would lose a few pounds initially, but they couldn't maintain the diet for very long.
This is where The Half Day Diet comes into play…
The Half Day Diet was developed based on the scientific research that says your body needs to be "low carb" for just a few specific hours of the day to get all the benefits of a 24-hour low carb diet.
So instead of depriving yourself of carbs all day long, you limit your carb intake for only half a day. After that, you are free to enjoy your favorite carb-rich foods.
About the Author
The Half Day Diet was created by Nate Miyaki, a professional nutrition coach. For the past 15 years Nate has built the most successful practice in the San Francisco area. His clients come from all walks of life, from soccer moms to Silicon Valley CEOs.
Nate hasn’t always been successful as a nutrition coach. In the past, he would put people on diets. And it would work for some of them and utterly fail for others.
Despite his best efforts, there was a group of people that he couldn’t help. He was missing something...
Then one night he learned about a mysterious part of the brain that causes cravings. It's called the LH-VTA Loop, and understanding how it works is the key to losing all the weight you desire.
Later on he found studies on people who lost more weight eating carbs at night. When he told his clients to do the same, not only did their weight start to drop, but their cravings also disappeared.
Finally Nate had figured out a way to TRICK your body into burning fat as if you’re on a low carb diet – while you still enjoy carb-rich foods every day. This allows you to lose weight without the negative side effects of a typical low carb diet.
How Does It Work?
Nate has packaged the Half Day Diet System into an easy-to-follow handbook. The system is based on 3 key pillars:
Half Day Pillar #1: MACRO-OPTIMIZATION
What is your goal? Do you want to lose 10, 30, or as much as 210 pounds like Nate’s client Jon?
If yes, you will need to adjust your protein, fat, and carb intake to meet your weight loss goal.
If this sounds complicated, don’t worry. The handbook will make it easy for you. All you need to do is choose which macronutrient template fits your goal. And you will be eating the right foods at the right times in the right amounts for maximum weight loss.
Half Day Pillar #2: CUSTOMIZATION
Despite what many so-called “experts” say, there is no single diet solution for everyone. That’s why the handbook will help you customize the system to fit your lifestyle, your career, your likes and your dislikes.
Using the Half Day customization principles is like having your own personal coach (without the expensive consulting fees).
Half Day Pillar #3: EVOLUTION
The same diet plan will not work for you forever. Once you weight starts falling off, your metabolism and nutrition needs will change. Which means you will need a new diet plan.
Fortunately, the handbook comes with a variety of templates to choose from to fit your ever-changing needs.
For example, because Nate enjoys lifting weights, he follows a “Strength Training” template most of the year. But when he has to get ripped for a photoshoot, he moves to the “Beach Physique” template for a while.
And even if you hate exercise, you can follow a “Sedentary” template to get started and allow the System to evolve as you do. Get the Half-Day Diet Today!

iHealthTube Featuring: Did You Know This is an Autoimmune Condition?
Dr. Terry Wahls was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis a number of years ago. Here, she discusses how it's an autoimmune condition. She also discusses how conventional treatments aim to treat the condition. She tried a number of those before finally treating her condition naturally. [Video and more below]
Natural Cures for Multiple Sclerosis
| By: Ron Sauciron |
Picture yourself enjoying an early morning snuggle session with your kids who love to jump into bed with you and enjoy some early morning bonding with you and your spouse. As you attempt to get out of bed, however, you feel what seems like an electric shock that started at the base of your neck and progressed down your spine ending at your feet. Your whole body starts to tingle and your leg becomes numb. It's like bumping your funny bone but your whole body tingles and goes numb, not just your arm. This was a totally new experience, and deep down, you knew this was serious.
Over the following weeks the symptoms continued to deteriorate to the point where walking became more difficult and climbing the stairs was almost impossible. After 90 days of agony and testing, you are diagnosed as having multiple sclerosis (MS). An inflammatory disease where the insulating covers of the nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord are damaged. This condition often cause disabilities and leads to damage to the optic nerve. Damage to the optic nerve can lead to hazy or blurred vision and ultimately the sudden loss of vision. As the disease progresses, additional symptoms like memory loss, intense pain, incontinence, extreme fatigue, and ultimately, the inability to walk can occur. So, you ask yourself, what causes this devastating disease ? And the answer is we don't know. We do know the cause of the symptoms, however. It's the result of the destruction of myelin (a fatty sheath that surrounds and protects nerve fibers in the central nervous system). As MS progresses, myelin deteriorates, leaving the delicate nerve fibers exposed. This causes the nerve fibers to lose their ability to communicate with each other which results in the victim experiencing pain, numbness, loss of vision, and a host of other discomforts. So your next question is if there's no cure what's the treatment ? Mainstream medicine's approach is the ABC treatment composed of three injectable drugs, Avonex, Betaseron /Betaferon, and Copaxone. This treatment is intended to stimulate the patient's immune system. There are two major problems with this approach, however. Number one, the ABC treatment is only effective 30% of the time. And number two, the side effects bring new problems to the table (like we don't have enough problems already ?). Then there's the extreme financial burden the patient hast to endure, between $10,000 and $30,000 a year. So if you elect to go with the ABC treatment you can expect to be injected with three drugs that are 70% ineffective, you will be subjected to numerous side effects and it will cost you somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000 a year (over $400 a week ). As an advocate of holistic medicine, you totally reject the ABC approach. So your next question is "how can I treat this illness with natural remedies ?" Research has confirmed the fact that natural treatments are frequently more effective than drug treatments with virtually no side effects. So you consult with a holistic healthcare professional and the natural approach begins. The first step is to check for food allergies. When you eliminate the foods you are allergic to, you notice a gradual improvement in your symptoms. Next you alter your diet to consist of fresh organic vegetables, lean organic meat, berries, and no processed foods and as time passes you notice an additional improvement in your symptoms. We are all individuals so there is no specific diet that will work for everyone. But there are some common elements that will work for the majority of us. The following are some of those common elements. Green Vegetables Are Essential : Green Vegetables are high in minerals that stimulate the activity of antioxidants which are properties in our genes that stimulate the body's defense against free radicals. Avoid Wheat and Dairy : They trigger a multitude of autoimmune diseases. If you must indulge, use small amounts of organic versions. Eliminate Sugar : It spawns candida albicans and increases inflammation in the body. One study discovered candida albicans increased the risk of contracting MS. Avoid Alcohol : Alcohol intensifies MS symptoms because it's produced from sugar. Avoiding the pharmaceutical approach and employing the natural approach will save you money, allow you to avoid the side effects, and will be more beneficial in the long-run. |
| Those who suffer from multiple sclerosis are predominately women. There are numerous ailments that affect mainly women and there's a book that addresses many of those ailments. The title is Health Springs Eternal, A Holistic Approach To Women's Health Issues. |

The Truth About Cancer Featuring: Breaking News: Johns Hopkins Syphilis Verdict
Last week, a federal judge determined that The Johns Hopkins University, Rockefeller Foundation, and Bristol-Myers Squibb Co will face a $1 billion indictment over their involvement in a government experiment that infected hundreds with syphilis against their will or without their knowledge. Get the full story here: http://bit.ly/guatemala-experiment-ar...
This is a big win for victims and their families, who have been seeking justice since the study first came to light in 2010.
Though the Guatemalan syphilis study was funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) and led by a senior surgeon from the United States Public Health Service (both encompassed by the Department of Health and Human Services), no compensation has been offered by the government.
Led by chief PHS physician John Cutler and funded by the NIH (both of which are departments of HHS), the Guatemala Syphilis Experiment was undoubtedly a U.S. endeavor. And the lack of ethics was not lost on those involved.
While these companies clearly played a role in Guatemala, it is readily apparent that the U.S. government is ultimately responsible, despite the absence of any legal liability.

Natural Cures Featuring: The Longevity Prescription According to a Nobel Prize in Medicine
The telomere theory of aging is one of the most prominent longevity concepts. In this video, you are going to learn which foods and lifestyle habits keep them healthy.
You know that friend of yours who is over 40 but doesn’t look like it? Or that person that’s so much older than you, but who has the energy and good disposition of someone younger?
Most of the time, we tend to believe this is due to "good genes," which is partly true. But science seems to be getting closer and closer to understanding the "secret" behind these people’s longevity.
Just like our appearance gives us clues about our chronological age (white hair and wrinkles) inside our bodies it’s also possible to know how old we are.
And that answer may be in our telomeres, the end of our chromosomes.
Elizabeth Blackburn, a researcher whose work earned her a Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2009, was the person who discovered this relationship. She is also the author of a book - The Telomere Effect - which explains how our diet, physical activity, mental health, and even our social relations influence the length of our telomeres.

Sierra Nevada Cancer Center Talks Breast Cancer: Care, Prevention, Risk Factors
| By: Jorge Perez | |
The idea of undergoing any cancer treatment can be difficult, which is why Dr. Jorge Perez and his team strive to offer immediate Advanced Cancer Care to patients and their families.
"I work personally with patients and their families and collaborate closely on disease management," said Dr. Perez. " I want all of my patients to beat their cancer, and I will do everything that I can to help them restore their health." The team prides itself on its personal approach, and SNCC patients become part of our extended family of cancer warriors and survivors. "We are here to help," said Dr. Perez. "While you are in our care, we want you to feel like you have a friend -- and a resource that can help connect you with information, support, ideas or just an ear to listen." And the best feedback we can hear is that our patients felt supported throughout the process. "I feel very blessed that the Sierra Nevada Cancer Center has been helping me fight my spreading breast cancer," said SNCC patient and South Lake Tahoe resident Kathy B. "Dr. Perez and his staff are very supportive, inspirational, professional and secure. An illness like mine makes life difficult every day, but being able to communicate and stay focused on my medications helps me stay strong and encouraged to continue with all my treatments. Thank you with all my heart and soul." Preventive Measures Treatment and early detection is what has given the millions of breast cancer survivors their best chance at beating cancer. To reduce your risk of breast cancer: * Increase your level of physical activity * Maintain a healthy weight and diet * Decrease the consumption of alcohol * Talk with your doctor about ways to avoid Combined Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) Risk Factors Many factors contribute to the risk of developing breast cancer -- gender, age, family history and race among them. * Breast cancer occurs nearly 100 times more often in women than in men. Men can also be diagnosed with breast cancer, but they have a far greater risk developing Prostate Cancer. * Two out of three women with invasive cancer are diagnosed after age 55. * If your mother, sister, father or child has been diagnosed with breast cancer, the risk of you developing breast cancer increases, especially if your relative was diagnosed before the age of 50. * It is unknown as to why, but breast cancer is more common in Caucasian women. Bio: Keep in mind: You only have control over some aspects of your risk factors. Sierra Nevada Cancer is here to help if you are diagnosed, with facilities and treatments that will encourage healing in your battle against cancer.

iHealthTube Featuring: Balance Your Hormones Through Diet! And Could a Man’s Midlife Crisis be Hormones?
Our hormones can change throughout the day, week and month. They affect so many functions in our body. In this video, Dr. Anna Cabeca discusses how your diet can help keep these hormones, and other functions in balance, and how diet can also throw them out of balance! [Video below]
Could a Man’s Midlife Crisis be Hormones?
| By: Jim Michels | |
A male midlife crisis is often associated with "the male crazies" when men make decisions to that reinforce their ebbing youth and fights the winds of aging. Be it buying a new sports car, altering physical appearance or some other action of age defiance, men are saying, "I refuse to admit that I am getting older," or "I refuse to admit that I am mortal".
Consider that underlying changes are taking place in a man’s chemistry during this time. Starting about age 27, key hormones start to decline. Hormones control the entire chemistry of the body. A decline in hormones such as testosterone, thyroid, DHEA and growth hormone cause symptoms to appear such as, mild to moderate depression, drop in energy and mental sharpness, decreased muscle and increased belly fat and a drop off in sex drive. It may well be hormone change and subsequent symptoms that cause a man to fight the demons of "the change". Hearing the phrase "the change" conjures up associations with menopause symptoms associated with declining hormone levels in women. Even the word hormone is most commonly associated as being ‘a women thing.’ While there have been significant studies of the impact of the female hormone estrogen and the process of menopause, much less attention has been paid to the male hormone equivalent testosterone. Fortunately for men, more research is occurring. Typically observed in a male’s peak earning years, the idea of a midlife crisis (the change) is generally well known. The idea that it may be connected to hormone decline -- a male menopause, also known as andropause is not generally considered. So what is male menopause? Starting in a male’s late twenties and noticeable by age 35, testosterone along with thyroid, DHEA and growth hormone levels decline and cause symptoms often associated with a "midlife crisis". Hormone levels will continue to decline for the rest of his life. Quoting Dr. Eugene Shippen an innovator in male hormone treatment in addressing the fact that hormones must be taken "for the rest of his life, "This is an issue of prospective. Your father and grandfather had the same problem. You are fortunate to be born in time when you have a choice to fix or not fix the problem. Considering hormone treatment’s positive impact on quality of life, this is a non-decision easily made. Your must fix it" For years men have been going to their doctor and discussing why they have a low sex drive, low energy, weight gain, irritability, depression, hot flashes and more. These symptoms are often considered individual and unrelated, however as male hormone research progresses the connection between these symptoms and declining male hormone levels is being realized. Male v. Female Menopause: Most people have a lose understanding of the menopause process for women and the symptoms associated with it. This is the result of decade’s worth of research and data. Today we now know that every living being, male and female, human or animal, is governed by hormones. A women’s menopause is different than a man’s because the decrease in hormone levels happen more suddenly and also occur later in life. A male’s hormones may decline more gradually over time, but is just as real. Did you know: Testosterone and estrogen levels are inversely proportional. As male testosterone levels decline, estrogen levels tend to increase. A classic example of this is acquired weight in the stomach area, also known as a "beer belly." Overcoming a Midlife Crisis "the change" with Hormones: Most people can think of at least one example of knowing a man going through a midlife crisis. What is happening is a man fighting the fact that he is getting older. Fighting the symptom of andropause, he tries to get his youth back. While this may cause a temporary high, the actions he takes will be short lived because the hormones and the daily feeling of irritability, depression, fatigue, hot flashes and decreased libido do not go away unless you treat the source, the hormones. Where to Begin: Testing hormone levels such as testosterone, thyroid, DHEA and growth hormone from a male hormone doctor is the first step. If the test shows that you have low hormone levels your doctor can recommend a customized male hormone treatment program that will safely restore your hormones back to healthy levels. |

Cancer treatments come in many different forms, from the traditional chemotherapy and radiation therapy to newer practices such as hyperthermia and intravenous vitamin supplements. This article will be looking at the use of cellular nutrition in cancer treatments, including alternative therapies.
Optimal cell health is very important for our health and can be achieved through nutrition. Our cells work hard to turn oxygen and nutrients into energy and water using the cellular power plants called mitochondria that each of them contains. The problem is that oxygen is toxic to our cells and produces free radicals which oxidize biological molecules, just like iron oxidizes when it rusts. This damages the cells and inactivates cellular respiration, causing the cell to die. The body’s fats, proteins and DNA are impaired, contributing to aging and diseases like cancer. Oxidative stress can be reduced by strengthening the body's antioxidant defenses and bringing down the number of free radicals in the body. Optimal cellular nutrition is the best way of doing this. All nutrients need to be supplied to the cell at optimal levels so it can choose which nutrients it needs. Within a few months of achieving optimal cell nutrition our nutrient levels are corrected. So how do we reach this goal? Research shows that following the RDA, or recommended daily allowance, of certain vitamins is not enough. Some studies demonstrate that the optimal level of vitamin C is in fact 1200 to 2000 mg per day, much more than the RDA which is just 60 mg. To achieve optimal cellular nutrition we would need to eat 18 oranges, 17 kiwis or 160 apples. Clearly we need to take some supplements if we want to reach these vitamin levels. When it comes to cancer treatment cellular nutrition can work alone in fighting the disease in its early stages, but it is usually used to strengthen the body prior to more traditional therapies. As well as changing our diet we need to move beyond an over the counter approach to supplementation. Angeles hospital in Mexico provides cancer patients with organic meals as well as pharmaceutical grade supplements. Supplementation programs are created by a team of medical experts that take important factors such as physical state, genetic background, daily activities, gender, age and the presence or absence of different diseases. People with chronic diseases like cancer find it harder to meet their daily nutritional needs by just changing their diet as their bodies require extra help. Professionally designed supplementation prescription is often necessary. On the alternative cancer treatment program at Angeles hospital the Functional Oncology team use your medical history, various tests and lab work to create a supplement regimen to optimize your cellular nutrition and meet your health challenges and needs. The supplementation plan is continually revised and adjusted as your body begins to heal and become more balanced and healthy. Angeles hospital provides cancer treatment of the highest standards and is known for being an upscale luxury facility with state of the art equipment and the most innovative, effective techniques.
