Holistic HealingTrying to find the best diet pill?

Trying to find the best diet pill may seem like an impossible task, especially with the multitude of diet pills available for purchase. Many people purchase a diet pill only to find out that the pill makes them feel jittery, nervous, or often has no effect at all.

Diet pills frequently contain the same or similar combination of ingredients and rarely contain anything new, innovative, or undiscovered to the supplement / weight loss industry. So, how can you find the best diet pill when most diet pills are made with similar ingredients?

One of the most common problems associated with taking diet pills is that the person taking the diet pill is uneducated about the dosage, effects, and promises offered as they relate to each diet pill. The research at http://www.diet-pill-review.com finds that there are three factors that should be taken into consideration when deciding to take a diet pill.

Dosage:
It is important to take the pill exactly as recommended on the product label. Some people choose to increase the dosage thinking that the product will work faster or better. This is not the case, and many people become sick in response to the large dose. Reviewers at http://www.diet-pill-review.com often suggest that the recommended dosage be cut in half to give the body time to adjust to the stimulant in the diet pill. After the body has adjusted, it is fine to begin taking the regular dosage as recommended on the product label.

Effects:
The effects listed on the product label are there because these are the effects that the product has had on 'some' of the test group. Some of the diet pill testers may be fine taking the product, while others may have adverse effects. The diet pill companies print this information to educate the buyer as well as to protect themselves from lawsuits. The consumer needs to read the label and educate themselves before taking the product. Many people who are sensitive to caffeine are surprised when the diet pill makes them feel nervous or nauseous, but this information is likely printed on the product, so with a little research these affects can be avoided.

Promises:
If you read the fine print on product claims for diet pills and other weight loss supplements, you will see 'results not typical' printed very small somewhere where you are not expected to look. The diet pills advertised on television are responsible for some of the most outlandish claims. The results clamed in these advertisements are often unattainable within the given amount of time outlined in the ad. Don't expect to see results in two weeks like a lot of ads claim.

Wouldn't it be great if you could read reviews for diet pills from actual users of each diet pill? Diet Pill Reviews http://www.diet-pill-review.com has taken the trouble out of searching for the best diet pill. You can read reviews of over 150 of the most popular diet pills available.

Natural RemediesLyme Disease - A Silent Threat To Your Health

It is estimated that as many as 220,000 Americans' developed Lyme disease in 2005 alone. Did you ever think something as small as the head of a pin could cause so much trouble? Unfortunately, being bitten by a tiny tick infected with Lyme disease could mean serious danger.

There are various types of ticks but the infected deer tick (named so because they frequently attach themselves to deer and mice) is the main spreader of Lyme disease.

There tends to be more cases of Lyme disease during warmer months of the year. This may be due to the fact that more people are outside giving the ticks more opportunity to come in contact with humans. Because the deer tick is so small most people don?t even feel them moving on their body and may not even notice that they are attacked.

The correct way to remove an attacked tick is to grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible with a pair of narrow-tipped tweezers. Pull firmly and with steady pressure. Try not touch the tick with your bare hands but, if you must, wash your hands immediately. Then, wash the tick-bitten area quickly and apply an antibiotic cream or antiseptic. Observe the wound often for signs of possible Lyme disease infection.

Some signs of Lyme disease include: a spreading, red rash that extends from the bite spot up to 7 inches out. There may also be flu like symptoms such as fever, headache, body aches, pains and weakness.

If Lyme disease is left untreated, it can cause even more severe symptoms like: numbness, severe joint stiffness (like arthritis), high fever, loss of memory, and even hearing and vision problems.

If you believe that you may have been infected, contact your physician. When Lyme disease is caught early enough antibiotics are usually prescribed to fight the infection, but waiting to seek medical treatment can lead to prolonged and less effective treatments.

When it comes to going outside, taking precautions will save you discomfort later on. It's best to put bug repellent on before going outside. Products containing DEET have been shown to be the most effective repellents. If using repellent, apply it sparingly; it will last between 4 to 8 hours. Read the label carefully before applying if you're pregnant or have small children. Also, wearing light clothing (to easily spot ticks), wearing long pants and shirt sleeves, tucking pants into boots or socks, tucking shirts in and keeping a hat on can help keep ticks off exposed skin. Ticks are drawn to dark areas such as waistbands and hair.

It's also a good idea to treat those pets that go outside. They can carry ticks into your house or rub on you and transfer them. There are several good flea and tick medicines available through your veterinarian, online or in pet stores. Get the good stuff! Paying a little more will insure your pet's and your happiness and the good stuff really does work great.

Lyme Disease prevention and awareness can help you and your family enjoy the time you spend outdoors even more without fear.

Hemp PowderExploring The Health Benefits Of Natural And Organic Food

One look to the grocery store shelves will tell the story of a society in search of the newest food that will take the weight off, increase energy, and maximize health. It seems that every year we are bombarded with a new health craze that guarantees us speedy results along an easy path. But, as many of us have come to realize the hard way, it remains the greatest truth of all that eating a balanced, healthy diet is the only way to achieve authentic health. It seems fitting therefore, that now, more than ever, we are discovering the health benefits of natural and organic food.

Doctors have long advised that diet ? more than anything ? plays the largest role in our health and longevity. In accordance, there has been a gradual shift from food products high in saturated fat, preservatives, and sugar to whole foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables, complex carbohydrates, and lean protein. But taking this a step forward is the shift to natural and organic food ? that food that is grown and raised without the addition of chemicals, hormones, and pesticides. Many think that because they are eating fresh fruit and vegetables they are making the healthiest choice. But if these fruits and vegetables have been chemically altered then you are now exposing yourself to a bevy of alien substances. While these chemicals are used quite regularly in traditional farming practices, they have not been studied thoroughly enough to know of their long lasting impact on the human body. Therefore, a switch to natural and organic food seems to be the wisest choice for our health.

Also falling under the definition of natural and organic food is organic meat and dairy. Livestock that is raised within organic guidelines are given only organic feed and are not subjected to any chemicals or hormones. Further, dairy cows that are traditionally given hormones to speed growth and increase milk production are chemical-free under natural and organic food guidelines.

The commitment to eating only natural and organic food minimizes your body?s exposure to chemicals and shows an even greater commitment to the environment as we show our support to farmers who don?t contaminate the earth with chemical cocktails.
