Drink Coke

www.bodybynaturesupplements.com



The carbonation in Coke causes calcium loss in the bones through a 3-stage process:
  1. The carbonation irritates the stomach.
  2. The stomach “cures” the irritation the only way it knows how. It adds the only antacid at its disposal: calcium. It gets this from the blood.
  3. The blood, now low on calcium, replenishes its supply from the bones. If it did not do this, muscular and brain function would be severely impaired.
But, the story doesn't end there. Another problem with most Coke is it also contain phosphoric acid (not the same as the carbonation, which is carbon dioxide mixed with the water). Phosphoric acid also causes a draw-down on the body’s store of calcium.
So Coke softens your bones (actually, makes them weak and brittle) in 3 ways:
  1. Carbonation reduces the calcium in the bones.
  2. Phosphoric acid reduces the calcium in the bones.
  3. The beverage replaces a calcium-containing alternative, such as milk or water. Milk and water are not excellent calcium sources, but they are sources.

Broken Nails

Thick nails

Thick nails are not natural. You want your nails to be strong, but if they resemble talons or claws more than traditional nails watch out!
  • Thickened nails that are otherwise normal can signal lung disease
  • Thick and rough-textured nails can signal a fungal infection
  • Thick and separated nails may mean thyroid disease or psoriasis
  • Unusual thickness may also be a symptom of a circulation problem
Thickening nails are a change that should tune you in to other health symptoms you may be ignoring. Also watch out for allergic reactions to new medications which can show up as suddenly thick nails!

Split nails

Split nails aren’t just occasionally chipped or shut in doors. Instead, these nails seem to flake away in layers. Don’t blame frequent hand washing or nail polish for everything, especially since:
  • Split nails result from folic acid, Vitamin C, and protein deficiencies
  • Split nails combined with a pitted nail bed (base) can signal psoriasis, which begins in nails 10% of the time according to WebMD
  • Split nails may result from chronic malnutrition
Watch what you eat and check the psoriasis connection to fight back and pay more attention to your health overall.

Pitted nails

Small dips or holes in your nails can be a result of banging up your hands – or they could be a sign that you need to look more closely at your health. Nail pitting can signal:
  • Psoriasis
  • Connective tissue disorder
  • Alopecia areata, an autoimmune disorder that causes hair loss
  • Zinc deficiency (when the pit seems to form a line across the middle of your nail)
Watch your hand to separate natural dents and dings from real, lasting pits. The first will clear up quickly, but pits linked to disease linger.






Getting drunk

www.bodybynaturesupplements.com



Going out tonight ? What will you drink? 
Hangover, tips to consider; 

1, Alcohol or ethanol is metabolised in the body to acetaldehyde by and enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), which is highly toxic and makes us feel drunk, acetaldehyde is then metabolised to acetic acid by acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) another enzyme. ADH and ALDH come in different iso-forms in different people which explains how some people get drunk quicker than others. If you have fast acting ADH and slow acting ALDH then you will get drunker and stay drunk longer than someone with slow acting ADH and fast acting ALDH. Those with slow acting enzymes fear not a far more powerful substance can metabolise alcohol and its called glutathione, before a couple of days before you go out and the night you go out take your glutathione supplements.

2, Ethanol suppresses vasopressin which regulates the bodies retention of water, explaining why you need to go to the toilet more once drunk. Lose water you lose electrolytes thus you need to replace once you return from your adventure with ethanol. Best option is to replace electrolytes in a solution with water. Drinking water without electrolytes will further dilute your electrolytes in the body. Electrolytes are compounds that are conductive to perform important and vital to life tasks in the body.



3, Either drink congener free alcohol, why? Congeners are slowly metabolised thus contribute to hangovers. Congeners are found in dark drinks such as whisky, rum, brandy and even red wine (however in red wine it is a good thing, stay tuned). This is how it works;

Methanol is a congener, its metabolites (formaldehyde and formic acid) extremely toxic and has been known to cause death. Methanol is metabolised the exact same way as ethanol however ethanol is preferred when both toxins are in the body thus leaving high amounts of methanol and its metabolites when ethanol has been eliminated, the next morning this is what makes you feel rotten, the high amounts of methanol and its metabolites. The key tip to beat a hangover in the morning if consuming congeners is the next morning to consume more ethanol but not congeners, why methanol poisoning in hospitals is treated with large doses of ethanol which causes the slow metabolism of of methanol which prevents the sudden build up of the highly toxic metabolites. This is commonly known as the 'hair of the dog' and why vodka (my favourite drink) yields little hangover effects if you replace electrolytes of course. Though one could just drink alcohol without congeners for an easier time.

Back to red wine the congeners are actually polyphenols like resveratrol help to counteract the damage that is done to the brains hippocampus. Good news for red wine drinkers.




4, I do not agree with the use of drugs long terms but do for short terms. High levels of prostaglandins. The special nerve endings that sense pain are extremely sensitive to this chemical. Hangovers have been associated with high prostaglandins, best option is to take a prostaglandin inhibitor like aspirin (ensure it is caffeine free and you are medically fit to take it).

In conclusion;

- Take glutathione supplements leading up to and on the night of drinking
- Drink either congeners free alcohol or red wine for an easy hangover
- If you do drink congeners then prepare an ethanol drink in the morning
- Drink Electrolyte and water solution all day
- Take 2 aspirin upon returning home and in the morning

(please check drug and supplement interactions and that you are medically fit to take aspirin before taking any medications)

Which oil's are healthy?

www.bodybynaturesupplements.com

Refined Seed- and Vegetable Oils Are Healthy

Some studies show that polyunsaturated fats lower your risk of heart disease.
For this reason, many have recommended that we increase our consumption of vegetable oils like soybean oil, sunflower oil and corn oil.
However, it is important to realize that there are different types of polyunsaturated fats, mainly Omega-3s and Omega-6s.
While we get Omega-3s from fish and grass fed animals, the main sources of Omega-6 fatty acids are processed seed- and vegetable oils.



The thing is we need to get Omega-3s and Omega-6s in a certain balance Most people are eating too little Omega-3 and way too much Omega-6.
Studies show that excess Omega-6 fatty acids can increase inflammation in the body, which is known to play a causal role in many serious diseases.
Most importantly, seed- and vegetable oils are associated with a significantly increased risk of heart disease the biggest killer in the world 
If you want to lower your risk of disease, eat your Omega-3s but avoid the refined seed- and vegetable oils.
It’s important to keep in mind that this does NOT apply to other plant oils like coconut oil and olive oil, which are low in Omega-6 and extremely healthy.
Bottom Line: Excess consumption of refined seed- and vegetable oils can increase inflammation in the body and dramatically raise your risk of cardiovascular disease.

missing plane

WHEN ONE THEORY ON FLIGHT 370 IS AS GOOD AS ANOTHER MWPR

THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING
If it wasn’t such a tragic event we could all freely laugh with great gusto at the mainstream media regarding the disappearance of Malaysian flight 370. Every single source, substantiated or not, was taken as a great revelation. It was and continues to be a sad circus of events.
If those following the serious clues left available there is only one question to ask. Why does no one mention the Indian Oceans most advanced and secure air base, the stationary Aircraft Carrier located south of the southern tip of India called Diego Garcia?
Not a peep. Not even an indication of a US managed military installation that monitors everything in this war region. In fact the best old metaphor regarding the lack of reference to this location is “The Silence Is Deafening.”
So here it is. As CNN, Fox, MSNBC, CBC, BBC, CTV and all the rest are prepared to spout off theories without any solid confirmation, here is one from a source who wishes to remain unidentified from Northwest BC Canada. This individual comes from a three decade long background of exposing the secrets the one percent and the military forces would rather have remained secret. He has recently revealed what happened to flight 370. ‘Film at Eleven’.
Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah prepared and practised with his home flight simulator and had determined the maximum speed and angle of decent the Boeing 777 could withstand.
As soon as the flight reached the extent of the Malaysian radar capability, when he knew they would no longer expect to see his radar signal, he wished the ground crews good night. He then turned off one tracking device, waited to see if anyone responded or raised alarm for 15 minutes, then turned off all communication devices. He locked the cabin door to prevent anyone from entering after asking his co-pilot to get him a drink or check on a system outside of the cockpit.
The Captain then immediately turned the plane southwest into a know flight path and climbed to over 40,000 ft. the maximum structural capability of the Boeing 777. He put on the pilot supplied air mask and kept the plane at over 40,000 ft until he was certain all the passengers and crew, including his co-pilot, were asphyxiated.
From his flight simulator experimentation he had already determined the precise coordinates where he would initiate his next action. To bring the plane down at the maximum speed and maximum angle of decent to make a direct hit on the fuel storage tanks at Diego Garcia.
As he initiated this direct course of action the American Military had not been concerned with the radar blip of this flight at 40,000 plus feet. They monitor vessels and flights which appear to be a threat or are invading their space. However they were suddenly brought into complete attention as their warning systems set off alarms.
The base at Diego Garcia attempted to make radio contact and immediately dispatching interceptors. Knowing full well this was an imminent threat, having no time to debate the issue and recognizing the aircraft was operating in what was basically ‘stealth’ mode, uncommunicative, the plane was shot out of the sky.
Becoming aware of which flight it was with the political and potential military repercussions, the US military ordered a complete lock down on all communications regarding the event and began dispatching crews to locate and pick up all the debris.
When the rest of the world became aware the flight was missing the US Navy offered all their resource to help them look for it in the South China Sea, then the Gulf of Thailand, Bay of Bengal and the Strait of Malacca. This kept the worlds attention focused away from the location they were cleaning up.
US 7th Fleet Commander William Marks told CNN “We wait for the Malaysians to tell us where to search and we go there.”
This is the most telling statement of all. Since when does the US take directions from Malaysia unless they are simply providing the rope to let them hang themselves.
The most powerful radar systems in the region are at Diego Garcia. A perfect target for such an attack, one the USA stopped and one they simply cannot reveal to the world due to the nationality of the passengers on board. They will continue to assist in the search while doing everything to ensure no one even mentions Diego Garcia in the mainstream media.
