***The following is a guest post for Organic Health by Jimmie Parr*** When I was very young, my mother told me about the nutritional value of oranges, and citrus fruits, in general. She said that English sailors had become known as “limeys,” because they carried limes, or other citrus fruits, on their vessels. They had discovered that citrus fruits helped prevent a condition called scurvy, which had, in past times, been linked to a deficiency of Vitamin C. I say that, “in past times,” scurvy had been linked to a deficiency of Vitamin C because that type of information may now be lost on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In the March, 2006 edition of Life Extension magazine is an article entitled “Why Is the FDA Picking on Cherries?” The article has to do with the U.S. Department of Agriculture having given a grant of $150,000 to cherry growers in Michigan. Michigan cherry growers used the grant to do research about nutritional benefits of cherries. Among other discoveries, the research revealed a correlation between the consumption of tart cherries and a decrease in pain in joints of people with arthritis. The anthocyanin in tart cherries was said to be better at pain relief than an equal amount of aspirin. However, the Fools and Dumb As...oops...the FDA told cherry growers either to stop advertising that tart cherries may help with relief of pain, or to register their cherries as a “new drug,” and to pay the required fees.

If you have been diagnosed with cancer like mesothelioma, you may be faced with an overwhelming number of decisions. Choosing doctors, health care facilities, and even treatments can leave you feeling numb and exhausted, and that won’t even take into account your emotions and physical toll from the cancer itself. While conventional medicine may play a large role in treating mesothelioma you may be considering alternative treatments as well. For centuries, people have been turning to the world around us for medicinal plants and healing treatments. While herbs and other complementary treatments may not be able to cure your cancer or offer you an increased mesothelioma life expectancy, they can offer substantial relief from the uncomfortable symptoms related to the cancer or the treatments you’re undergoing and dramatically improve your quality of life. Complementary treatments can also help ease the stress of cancer and cancer treatments and help you take control during what is inarguably a very stressful time. (Read More.....)
