Sulfur

Sulfur is a macromineral naturally occurring in all human cells and body tissues, especially those high in protein content. The best food sources for sulfur are foods high in protein, such as eggs, fish, legumes, meat, milk, and poultry. Plant food sources include Brussels sprouts, cabbage, garlic, onions, and turnips. Sulfur is a necessary nutrient for collagen formation and is involved in the synthesis of protein. In addition, sulfur helps maintain the health of hair, skin, and nails. It also plays a role in a number of enzymatic reactions and contributes to the process of cellular respiration. Read more at www.altmeds.com

Radiation Poisoning

The nuclear reactor crisis in Japan was a red flag for many Americans who worry that a similar radiation catastrophe could happen in the U.S.

What can you do to help protect yourself and your family against radiation poisoning, if it ever comes to that?

IODINE: iodine tablets are important in cases of radiation poisoning because radioactive ions will bind to any iodine receptor sites that are vacant, and many people in the US are iodine deficient. iodine is particularly protective of the thyroid gland. You can paint liquid iodine on your skin, and it will be absorbed into your body. Some experts suggest painting it directly over the thyroid gland.

ANTIOXIDANT VITAMINS: radiation poisoning causes a cascade of free radicals in the body, which can wreak havoc with every organ. The most protective antioxidants are Vitamin C and Vitamin E.

ANTIOXIDENT NUTRIENTS: ALA (alpha lipoleic acid), selenium, and Co-enzyme Q10 are antioxidant substances that can help clean heavy metals from the body. ALA is especially beneficial in protecting the brain, liver, kidneys, spleen, and reproductive organs. Q10 is especially protective of the heart Read more at www.altmeds.com

The best probiotic for certain nutrients.

Acidophilus

Acidophilus is a source of friendly bacteria known as probiotics, which encourage a healthy balance in your digestive system, boost immunity and increase resistance to infections. Beneficial bacteria in the gut produce Vitamin K, which is then absorbed into the bloodstream. Many health care professionals recommend taking acidophilus alongside oral antibiotics, because antibiotics can destroy healthy bacteria and lead to fungal infections such as thrush. Conditions that can be helped by acidophilus supplements include diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, and gastroenteritis. The best source is live "bio" yogurt, but acidophilus is also available in liquid and capsule form (which should be kept refrigerated). Acidophilus is harmless and can be taken daily with food in unlimited amounts. Read more at www.altmeds.com
