Prevent Cancer & Diabetes The Borg had it wrong. Resistance is not futile. In fact it can stave off colon cancer and ease inflammatory bowel disease and other digestion problems.
The resistance in this case comes in the form of so-called resistant starches certain kinds of carbohydrates that resist digestion in the small intestine
kill precancerous polyps in the colon; prevent diabetes by improving insulin sensitivity and regulating blood sugar;
maintain healthy body weight; reduce inflammation; prevent or treat inflammatory bowel disease; and help promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut.
In 2010 scientists at Virginia Polytechnic and State university reported that resistant starch might also protect against breast cancer.
So how can a bit of indigestible starch do all this? Resistant starch is a very good substrate for fermentation Higgins told Livescience.

While the connection between obesity and kidney disease has long been established this latest study is the first to show how just a small increase in abdominal fat begins to strain the kidneys reducing the blood flow to these organs
Nevertheless chronic kidney disease is on the rise. More than 10 percent of American adults now have some form of kidney disease according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC.
Among diabetics 35 percent have kidney disease. Most forms of kidney disease have no cure except through a kidney transplant from a healthy donor.
Kidney disease is the eighth leading cause of death in the United states according to the CDC and approximately 90000 Americans are waiting for a transplant.
To further investigate the known connection between obesity and kidney disease researchers led by Arjan Kwakernaak a medical doctor
and a Ph d. candidate at the University Medical center Groningen in The netherlands analyzed kidney profiles and waist-to-hip ratios in 315 healthy individuals with an average body mass index (BMI) of about 25 kg

In a separate study men with lycopene levels in the top 20 percenthad a 46-percent decrease in risk of heart attack compared to those in the bottom 20 percent.
Many studies have shown that lycopene-rich foods reduce the risk of prostate cancer but the mechanism behind the reduction was understood not well until now.
A recentâ studyâ found that lycopeneâ has a substantial protective effect against prostate cancer by interfering with the genes that would allow the prostate cancer cells to grow
The American Institute for Cancer Research recommends that men take advantage of lycopene's cancer-preventing effects and fill tehir diets with foods such as tomatoes watermelon and guava.
Awareness of heart disease and the finding of cholesterol in atherosclerotic plaques that created the blockages implied that

or a miracle pill to prevent disease. Healthy people have a healthy lifestyle. They eat foods that grow in the ground or lean meats and low-fat dairy products.
The solution to the obesity epidemic begins with eating more fresh fruits and vegetables not re-engineering processed foods.
Then I started hearing about the potential benefits of omega-3s for arthritis and other inflammatory diseases.
Scientists observed that Inuit populations in Greenland had reduced a rate of heart disease rheumatoid arthritis and other ailments even though they ate a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet.
Since then study after study has confirmed that omega-3s in fish have a potent effect on reducing heart disease.
Omega-3 favorably affects a number of risk factors for cardiovascular disease and at the top of the list is reducing the risk of sudden death from heart attack said Penny Kris Etherton distinguished professor of nutrition at Pennsylvania State university.
But when it comes to the benefits of omega-3s that may be just the tip of the iceberg!
if you have heart disease. But its healing powers don't stop there. Other organs may benefit.
and prevents clot formation all important functions in preventing many diseases. The ideal ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 is the hottest debate among omega-3 researchers.
Osteoporosis is lower in populations who eat more fish such as Asians when compared to Europeans who eat more calcium-containing foods said Bruce Watkins nutrition professor at Purdue University.
The Greenland studies with Inuit populations found they don't suffer much from psoriasis a skin disease that causes painful inflammation redness and scales.
which causes psoriasis to spread. When researchers tested the impact of omega-3s on people with psoriasis after 10 weeks 60 percent of subjects experienced a decrease in the area of skin affected by the condition and a decrease in cell proliferation and skin inflammation.
Apparently the dose is essential. As the authors have said while the work is promising more research is needed to understand the mechanism and doses and why it works for some but not others.
which cause psoriasis new research is finding it inhibits proliferation of cancer cells in the breast prostate and colon.
But a new study found breast cancer patients responded better to chemotherapy and the cancer was less likely to spread
when patients were given omega-3 fatty acids. And there is epidemiological evidence that men who eat more fish have a lower risk for prostate cancer.
Omega-3 in Fish May Reduce Breast cancer Risk There is also evidence that omega-3s may help prevent Type 2 diabetes
and improve the effects of diabetes by reducing insulin resistance. The U s. Food and Drug Administration recently approved omega-3s for infant formulas because of the overwhelming evidence that it improves cognition and visual functioning in children.
A mother's breast milk provides it naturally especially when the mother regularly eats fish.)
Inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease may also improve with omega-3 supplementation. The studies are just beginning.
And while studies are very promising for a wide range of illnesses the optimal amount of omega-3
For patients with coronary artery disease AHA recommends 1000 mg daily or double the seafood requirement (but never above 3000 mg without a doctor's supervision.
This suppression of the immune system could be an explanation for the recent possible connection between prostate cancer and high omega-3-fatty acid in the bloodstream.
With high doses of omega-3s there is also a slight increase in risk for hemorrhagic stroke or excessive bleeding.
 In the North american West damage from fire logging and infection by the devastating mountain pine beetle is evident.
and whether a person has kidney disease or high blood pressure said study researcher Dr. Xu Yuming a neurologist at Zhengzhou University in China. 7 Ways to Raise Your Risk of Stroke Before you begin taking any supplements you should always talk to your doctor Yuming said.
In a stroke the blood supply to the brain is interrupted by a blood clot or the bursting of a blood vessel.
Common risk factors for stroke include high blood pressure high cholesterol and smoking. However previous studies indicate that these risk factors explain only half of the risk for stroke the researchers said.
Some studies have suggested that high levels of the amino acid homocysteine in the blood could potentially be a risk factor for vascular disease
and stroke or heart attack Yuming said. Some studies have suggested even that the supplements may increase the risk of these events.
The American Cancer Society notes that while supplements containing B vitamins are thought generally to be safe they should not be taken in large doses. High doses of vitamin B3 (niacin can cause health problems including blurred vision nausea vomiting and high blood sugar.

Worst Allergy Season Ever? Setting the stage for more changes These are just a few of the many warning signs of climate change.
#Warm-up Bringing Allergy Woes to Northeast This article was provided by Accuweather. com. Seasonal allergies will be in full swing this week in the Northeast as seasonable temperatures take hold.
However with these warmer temperatures comes the return of seasonal allergies. With milder conditions starting in the beginning of April the growing season has started really up.
However it is not the bright showy flowers that cause most problems for allergy suffers.
This sudden boom in tree blossoms could have allergy sufferers seeing symptoms more abruptly than usual.
As per this time of year the tree pollen is the main allergy threat especially from the less conspicuous oak maple pine and elm varieties.
and even southeastern New england so has the allergy threat. What seems to have awakened the trees was the sudden warmth early last week followed by drenching rain in many areas.
Accuweather. com Allergy Central Will Allergies be Worse in 2013? The Best Ways to Beat Spring Allergies Consistent warmth is expected through this week along with occasional rainfall.
The combination of the two will continue to spur on blossoming and pollen release. Even though rain temporarily removes some of the pollen from the air it promotes a new round of blossoming this time of the year.
