Challenge Studies That Encourage Moderate Alcohol Consumption For Health And Longevity

“Don’t go hitting the bar just yet, as these studies leave alot to be desired. But honestly, anything in moderation is cool. You could probably smoke one organic cigarette a day and not have any health issues at all – it’s smoking a pack of chemical laced mainstream cigarettes that will kill you. The same could even be said for alcohol. Life is tough – it’s cool to unwind now and again. But you can’t overdo it. Moderation – with anything in life – is key.” –KTRN
Alcohol consumption’s health consequences have been a subject of epidemiological studies throughout the western world. The consensus from several studies is: Those who drink moderately have better health than those who drink heavily, and surprise, even better than those who don’t drink alcohol at all. It leaves one wondering how thorough these studies were.
It doesn’t have to be wine that’s consumed, they say. It could be any type of alcoholic beverage. But it appears that all the tests don’t agree with what’s moderate. Some say one or two drinks per week, and others say three to four drinks a day. Maybe it depends on who drinks what.
While it’s true that using alcohol moderately to relax may help protect one from a health debilitating stress overload, that seems to fall short for the finding that moderate drinking is healthier than no alcohol at all. Does this include those of us who eat right, exercise, and meditate?
One area of suspicion is just what are the teetotalers eating and what is their level of physical activity? That seems to be a non-factor with these studies. There are several individuals from “primitive” cultures, who live healthy lives to 100 years of age, and yogis, who continue to practice Hatha Yoga at or near that age.
Most of them don’t drink alcohol at all, and they’ve lived relatively healthy long lives. So we don’t really know the lifestyles of those in the studies who say they don’t drink alcohol at all. That could flip these studies over.
As we know, mainstream medicine doesn’t consider shunning processed foods and meats in its factoring for good health and longevity. So how many teetotalers were consuming whole organic foods? And how many were vegetarians? This writer’s hunch is very few were observing healthy diets or lifestyles.

Lemon Grass, A Natural Way Of Easing Muscle Cramps

Since the beginning of medicine, people have looked for a way to ease the pain and discomfort of a variety of ailments. Over time, some herbs have been found to be highly effective as natural remedies, and lemon grass is one that is known to alleviate the pain felt as a result of muscle cramps. Effective in a variety of forms and for a diverse list of medical issues, lemon grass is a very widely used herb that has been incorporated into numerous industries.
Known officially as andropogon citratus, or andropogon flexuosus, lemon grass has also been assigned the monikers lemongrass, scurvy grass, citronella grass, and fever grass. It is a perennial tropic grass that grows primarily in warm climates and is often found in Asian countries, as well as Africa and South America. With roughly 55 species known to provide medicinal treatment, lemon grass has also been used as thatching for huts and cottages in traditional cultures.
The benefits of lemon grass are evident before the herb is even prepared, as the leaves have an aromatic smell that can be used as fragrance in potpourri and satchels. The leaves themselves, which are a staple in Ayurvedic medicine, vary in color from yellow to reddish brown and can be used in fresh, dried, powered, and oil form. Oil form is one of the most popular; essential oils are distilled from the lemon grass leaves and are very thin in texture, similar to water.
Lemon grass is known as a great natural treatment for muscle cramps, as it alleviates the stress in the tissues and helps the muscles relax. But this herb has many other applications, ranging from a food additive to a fragrance used in beauty products. Some of the various uses of lemon grass include: a flavor supplement in food, especially wine and sauce; a fragrance for soaps, creams, detergents, perfumes, lotions, and hair products; a pesticide and rodent repellant; a degreaser; a treatment for depression; and a natural, safe way to fight off fatigue and to invigorate the senses.
Additionally, Chinese herbalists have long used lemon grass to treat a variety of ailments, including: colds, fungal infections, stomach aches, digestion issues, spasms, toothaches, the buildup of mucus, and rheumatic pain. Lemon grass also kills germs, stops flatulence, helps blood to clot, acts as diuretic, increases kidney health, serves as a sedative, treats ringworm, and is an effective tonic.
Though the benefits of lemon grass seem to go on and on, there are two issues that people using this herb should keep in mind. First, when used topically, lemon grass can cause irritation to sensitive skin. To prevent discomfort, it is recommended that anyone using lemon grass for the first time apply it to a small patch of skin to ensure that s/he does not have an adverse reaction. Additionally, it is highly recommended that pregnant women refrain from using lemon grass.
Clearly, the health benefits of lemon grass include the ease of muscle cramps and so much more. As a staple in modern and ancient natural medicine, lemon grass has proven itself to be a versatile and effective treatment for many ailments. It is a wonderful herb that will provide many health benefits. The ability of this herb to alleviate muscle cramps can be heightened by using it in a smoothie or elixir after a workout.
Here is a quick and simple recipe you can try: blend 1 inch of the lemon grass root with 2 cups water, add a dash of stevia and cinnamon and/or vanilla, strain and enjoy!

Westerners ‘Programmed to Eat Junk Food’

Scientists at Aberdeen University have discovered that those of European origin are more likely to have genes which urge them to gorge on fatty foods, beer and wine, than Asians.
Dr Alasdair MacKenzie explained that the genes controlled the strength of a “switch” that helped determine appetite.
He said: “The switch controls the areas of the brain which allows us to select which foods we would like to eat and if it is turned on too strongly we are more likely to crave fatty foods and alcohol.”
He went on: “The fact that the weaker switch is found more frequently in Asians compared to Europeans suggests they are less inclined to select such options.”
Dr MacKenzie believed the fact that Europeans in the past had to survive through long cold winter by relying on brewed drinks and fat-rich foods, meant they became genetically predisposed through natural selection to like them.
He said: “These results give us a glimpse into early European life where brewing and dairy produce were important sources of calories during the winter months.
“Thus, a preference for food with a higher fat and alcohol content would have been important for survival.
“The negative effects of fat and alcohol we see today would not have mattered so much then as life expectancies were between 30 to 40 years.”
However, Dr MacKenzie said that those of Asian origin who moved to Western countries were not immune from obesity or heavy drinking habits, and that physiology was only a small part of the picture.
Galanin is a brain chemical called a neuropeptide, which previous research has identified as crucial to determining appetite for carbohydrate and fat-rich food.

A Glass of Wine a Day Helps Prevent Diabetes
February 14, 2011 by admin

Natural News
By: David Gutierrez
A single glass of red wine may be as effective at controlling blood sugar as standard diabetes drugs, according to a study conducted by researchers from the University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences in Vienna, Austria.
Previous research has shown that red wine, grape skins and red grape juice are high in plant chemicals called polyphenols. These antioxidants have been shown to help the body regulate blood sugar, and may thereby help prevent or control diabetes. In the current study, researchers studied the action of grape polyphenols on a cell receptor called PPAR-gamma, which plays an important role in blood sugar regulation, energy storage and fat storage. They found that even a small glass of wine has enough polyphenols to activate the receptor at least as effectively as the diabetes drug Avandia.
The researchers also compared the polyphenol content of 12 different wines, confirming the popular wisdom that concentrations are higher in red wine.
“This is further scientific evidence that a small amount of wine really is beneficial for health,” researcher Alois Jungbauer said.
He cautioned, however, that wine can be high in calories and that moderate consumption is key.
“Moderate is the equivalent of a small glass each day for women, and two for men,” he said. “Our big problem is to convey the message of a healthy lifestyle because too much wine will cause diabetes and obesity.”
“If you have wine then you must reduce your intake of calories from food by the same amount.”
Moderate wine consumption is a characteristic of the Mediterranean Diet, which has been shown to improve lifespan and reduce the risk of chronic disease.
“The traditional Mediterranean diet has shown tremendous benefit in fighting heart disease and cancer, as well as diabetes,” write Michael Murray and Joseph Pizzorno in The Encyclopedia of Healing Foods.
“It has the following characteristics: Olive oil is the principal source of fat. The diet centers on an abundance of plant food, including fruit, vegetables, breads, pasta, potatoes, beans, nuts, and seeds. Foods are minimally processed, and there is a focus on seasonally fresh and locally grown foods.”

Petting Your Dog Is The ‘Best Form of Stress Release’

Don’t reach for a glass of wine or watch your favourite soap at the end of the hard day.
For research has shown that the most effective way to unwind is to spend time with the family dog.
It has been revealed that a dog’s enthusiasm is infectious and that simply spending time with them leaves owners feeling more relaxed, more optimistic and less preoccupied with everyday worries.
The survey of dog owners also found that walking the dog is the best quality time that can be spent with the family, beating family mealtimes and even holidays.
Television presenter and dog owner Ben Fogle, 36, says his relationship with his dog has brought countless happy memories and also led to him meeting his now wife, Marina.
He said: ‘Having a dog is rewarding in so many ways and I enjoy nothing more than coming home and being greeted by Inca, her daughter Lola, and Maggi.
‘Their enthusiasm is infectious and we feel at ease and more relaxed after spending time with them. They complete our family.’
The poll of 1,000 of the UK’s seven million dog owners, conducted for dog food makers Winalot, showed 55 per cent felt more relaxed after time with their dog, 44 per cent were more optimistic and another 44 per cent were less worried about life’s everyday problems like job security and financial troubles.
Psychologist Dr David Lewis, of Mindlab International, said: ‘You’ve had a tough and stressful day. The boss has been on your case, the children playing up, the shops packed and the traffic bumper-to-bumper.
‘Now all you want to do is relax and unwind. Actually, forget the TV and interact with the dog instead. The research we conducted shows this is a profound and effective stress reducer and increases feelings of contentment and relaxation.’
In addition the survey found that one in four people describe their dog as their best friend and one in six women share their deepest, darkest secrets with their pet alone

Drinking Tea Cuts Risk of Heart Disease by One-Third

Drinking several cups of tea or coffee daily appears to cut your risk of heart disease by more than one-third, Dutch researchers have found.
“It’s basically a good news story for those who like tea and coffee,” said lead researcher Yvonne van der Schouw. “These drinks appear to offer benefits for the heart without raising the risk of dying from anything else.”
The study appeared in Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, a journal of the American Heart Association.
Researchers followed 40,000 healthy people for 13 years, then compared rates of heart disease with consumption of coffee and tea. They found that participants who drank between three and six cups of tea per day were 45 percent less likely to die from heart disease than those who drank less than a cup a day.
Drinking coffee or larger amounts of tea was also protective against death from heart disease, but not as strongly. People who drank more than six cups of tea a day reduced their risk by 36 percent compared with the low tea-drinking group, while those who drank between two and four cups of coffee daily reduced their risk by 20 percent compared with those who drank either more or less coffee. These effects remained after researchers adjusted for other heart disease risk factors, such as smoking and exercise level.
Neither coffee or tea consumption appeared to affect the risk of dying from any other cause, including stroke or cancer.
The study did not include people already suffering from heart disease, so its results cannot be generalized to such high-risk populations.
“But for healthy people, it appears that drinking coffee and tea is not harmful and it may even offer some benefits,” van der Schouw said.
Part of the study’s significance lies in the fact that the most popular tea consumed in the Netherlands is black tea, while most prior studies have focused on the benefits of green tea.
“The perception has been that green tea is the ‘healthy’ tea, but this study suggests black tea may be just as good for the heart,” said nutrition professor Rachel K. Johnson of the University of Vermont. “That will be good news to people like me who are not big green tea lovers.”
Johnson is also an American Heart Association spokesperson.
In the United States, levels black tea consumption are significantly higher than green tea consumption.
Johnson notes that while the consumption levels found to be beneficial in the study might seem high, they are relatively easy to achieve.
“Iced tea is very popular in some parts of the country, especially in the summer,” she said. “Just make sure to go easy on the sugar. I would hate for people to get the message that they should be drinking more sugar-sweetened beverages.”
Scientists remain unsure why tea, and to a lesser extent coffee, appear to offer heart protective benefits. Research thus far has focused on a family of plant chemicals known as polyphenols, particularly the flavonoids. Studies on individual flavonoids and on other foods containing them (such as red grapes and wine, dark berries, red beans and dark chocolate) have confirmed their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and other health-promoting benefits
Ellen Mason of the British Heart Foundation noted that while tea and coffee in moderation may provide some heart benefits, they cannot undo the effects of an unhealthy lifestyle.
“It’s worth remembering that leading a healthy overall lifestyle is the thing that really matters when it comes to keeping your heart in top condition,” she said. “Having a cigarette with your coffee could completely cancel any benefits, while drinking lots of tea in front of the TV for hours on end without exercising is unlikely to offer your heart much protection at all.”
