This is where to look each month. Issues, topics and questions of interest to you shall be addressed. Current news and documented facts shall be included with each column.
Fascinating Facts:
- According to Ralph Moss, author of Cancer Therapy", over 62 percent of the American public has tried alternative therapies and over 90 percent of those individuals said they benefited from them. He went on to say that people want and need inexpensive, non-toxic alternatives.
- Stretching for flexibility may not be the smartest choice. Robert Gajda, author of Total Body Training, says flexibility without the strength to control it will lead to injury. Strengthening of the muscles around a joint naturally increases flexibility, so improvement in flexibility is a natural outcome of proper training and strengthening.
- At a symposium attended by over 300 medical professionals in Tulsa, Oklahoma last November, one of the many key conclusions reached was that the established recommended daily allowances (RDAs) of vitamins and minerals are an "old concept" that make no sense for individuals wishing to achieve optimal health.
