I was a 40 year old who smoked and had bad peripheral vascular disease also called
atherosclerosis. Starting with the teenage years I had 19 surgeries and many drugs to stop the progression
of the disease. I had experienced numerous open wounds that would not heal and I lost
four toes and things were getting worse. The doctors told me there was little they could
do and the next condition to happen would be major amputation. At no time did any doctor mention
chelation therapy.
Fear is a great motivator. The first thing I did was stop smoking and boy did that help.
The second thing I did was start to research for natural ways to clear my blood vessels
of the junk that was causing my clogged arteries and veins. I first found a book called
"Bypassing Bypass" and another one called "The Chelation Way" Both excellent resources.
This information was all I needed. I started my search for a doctor who did chelation therapy.
It took me a while to find one because the information and the resources of today were
not available, especially the internet. I was fortunate because I found a doctor within
60 miles and just in time too. I had one of my old wounds on my foot reopen. I started
IV chelation therapy at once. I took 3 treatments a week for a total of ten treatments.
Halfway through the therapy the wound had healed which was an extremely quick response given my past history.
With the original ten treatments I felt much better and I preformed better physically. I was now
able to walk up to a mile without calf pain. I waited about two months and did another
10 treatments which got rid of all the calf pain and I could now walk five miles or more.
This was fantastic because I had not been able to do that since I was a teenager.
Over the next ten years I took a total of 60 IV chelation treatments at six different locations around the country.
During that time I never had a reoccurrence or symptoms of peripheral vascular disease.
Around the age of 65 I started to have very minor symptoms but with all my experience I could tell
these were the beginnings of the return of poor circulation. By that time there were many
oral chelation products available that were not available when I started chelation therapy.
I have taken four different products and found that taking straight EDTA powder in large
quantities is best for me. When I have a problem or feel like my circulation is not at it's best
I take 2400mg of EDTA twice to three times a day. I am now over 70 and do not have any circulation problems.
I have passed all the stress tests and the most important one, is being able to walk over
five miles in the high mountains of Colorado. Chelation therapy works in both IV and oral
forms. I am living proof.

Yeast Infection Remedies
Are you currently suffering from a yeast infection? It is a painful infection that more than 75% of women will contract in their lifetime. Fortunately, there are many treatments that will kill the bacteria and get rid of the infection quick. While you can purchase many medicines over the counter, I want to focus on natural remedies for a yeast infection that will get rid of it quick, often faster than other medicines that say they will!
So, what types of alternative methods of treatments are out there? There are so many to choose from, so how do you know what ones work best? First off, natural treatments generally work best when they are combined. The reason for this is that some treatments provide relief, while others actually kill the bacteria that causes the infection.
For example, boric acid is one of the most known natural treatments in existence. They are in a pill form, and can be found at any natural herb store or your local grocery story or pharmacy. All you need to do is insert one tablet into your vagina two to three times daily for up to three days. This kills the bacteria that causes the yeast infection.
Now, if you want to get rid of the painful burning and itching associated with vaginal yeast infections, you can pick up garlic supplement tabs. You simply insert one of these into your vagina as well. This provides instant relief from the burning and itching. While it may seem like an odd treatment, it is one that definitely works!
There are all sorts of other effective natural treatments out there that work, and the ones I've just shared with you are just some of the ways you can eliminate yeast infections quick!
How do I know this? I was a long time sufferer of chronic yeast infections, until my friend told me about this guide that helped me clear my yeast infection up in less than 10 hours! The best part? It was all natural, and I never had a yeast infection since my last treatment. Learn more about me and my story at Yeast Infection Help.

New Hemorrhoid Remedies
The first thing you need is to change you diet by eating more fibers.
With fiber you will have much softer stools and less straining when you use the toilet. Straining during bowel movements are one of the reasons, you may have hemorrhoids. If you find you need extra help in this area, stool softeners can be purchased at your local drug store and add in this process. This hemorrhoid remedy only works temporarily.
Another good hemorrhoid remedy, you may want to try is going to the bathroom, when you feel the need to go. Emptying your stools will cause your stools to be moist, which allows them to pass easily from your anal canal.
Another hemorrhoid remedy is speeding up your digestion. The way you accomplish this is by drinking fruit juices, which will give you natural fiber and consuming more water. Also you will want to get in 15 minutes of daily exercise.

Warm baths are another great temporary hemorrhoid remedy. This method will soothe the hemorrhoid and help to free you from pain. In order for this to be effective, you may need to repeat this action several times during the day. A cushion in the tub adds to your comfort; however remember not to stay sitting in the tub for too long.
Lastly ice is an outstanding hemorrhoid remedy. It will help to numb
the area and to stop you from feeling pain as well as slowing down the blood flow that is causing the swelling of your hemorrhoid.

4 Things to consider when purchasing a magnetic bracelet
These days there are more and more companies selling magnetic bracelets, often on the web, and each one claims to be the best. But they can't all be the best of course! I'm not going to name any particular brands here, but there are several things worth considering before purchasing a magnetic bracelet, or indeed any magnotheraputic product.
1) You get what you pay for.
Now obviously you're going to shop around and make sure you get the best deal. I'm not suggesting that the most expensive is necessarily the best! But there is a big difference in price between those products at the top end of the market and those at the bottom. If you find yourself looking at a copper bracelet imported from china made with weak magnets, ask yourself if it is really going to be worthwhile- after all, you are purchasing the product for a reason- its pain relieving effects, and if the product you buy doesn't deliver those effects, then that's not good value.
2) Is its appearance going to stop you wearing it as much as you would?
A long running problem with magnetic bracelets is their appearance- they have traditionally been ugly and embarrassing, drawing attention to themselves and provoking the same tiresome questions from people who notice the bracelet and ask what it is, why you're wearing it etc. It's like when you have your arm in a sling- you soon get tired of explaining to everyone why you have it! Just as bad are the bracelets that are designed to look like a watch so as to be more 'discrete'. These are fine so long as you don't get tired of being asked why you are wearing two watches! And if you're not wearing it, you're not getting the benefit of it. Make sure you buy a bracelet that's attractive and that you're going to enjoy wearing all the time. Ask yourself: 'would I wear this if it didn't have any magnets in it?'
3) Do your homework
Recent clinical studies suggest it is not just the type and strength of the magnets used that makes a difference to the effectiveness of the bracelet, but also the way in which they are arranged to allow the blood to pass through different fields. This is true of the magnetic devices researched and produced by Nigel Broderick which successfully went through clinical trials commissioned by the Arthritis Research Campaign. The results were published in the British Medical Journal in 2004. A product using his old design is still popular, but you can find the latest developments if you look a little harder.
4) Think about when you'll be wearing it
If you're planning on wearing the bracelet for activities such as gardening, make sure you buy a bracelet that is dirt resistant and can be scrubbed clean. If you want one to wear in the evening, and I'm thinking of more for women here, you can get some beautiful jewellery designs now including magnotheraputic technology.

Natural Approach to Hayfever Prevention
Spring can be a particularly difficult time for hayfever sufferers, but organic herbal expert, Pukka Herbs, believes the symptoms can be avoided with the use of natural remedies.
Pukka is dedicated to helping people lead a healthy, balanced life based on the principles of Ayurveda, in which an allergy is the result of the body being unable to 'digest' a certain substance.
Pukka's herbal director, Sebastian Pole, explains: "If our digestion becomes impaired, we cannot absorb and metabolise what we are putting into ourselves. This can create a toxic overload that coats our mucus membranes and obstructs the free flow of air, resulting in hayfever symptoms. Congestion, sneezing, itchiness, heavy head and difficulty in breathing are particularly common."
"A good way to treat allergies is to strengthen your digestion by avoiding foods such as dairy, refined sugar and wheat, all of which cause congestion. In addition, Pukka Herbs has a range of natural organic products to tackle the root cause of hayfever."
To avoid irritating hayfever symptoms, Pukka's Peppermint & Pippali Formula, a special blend of herbs with specific anti-histamine and anti-allergenic properties, can be used without the side effects of drowsiness normally associated with anti-histamines.
To clear toxins and congestion from the head use Organic Nasya Nasal Oil which also coats the lining of the nasal passage and prevents pollen contact.
A natural way to cleanse your liver and help reduce allergic response from the immune system is to drink Organic Aloe Vera Juice. Pukka's Aloe Vera Juice is a premium product which uses only the inner leaf gel and contains no synthetic preservatives such as sodium benzoate which is often a causative factor in allergies.
Finally, drinking Refresh Tea, a delicious blend of organic peppermint, licorice and rose, or Three Mint Tea, a flavoursome mix of peppermint leaf, spearmint leaf and fieldmint leaf, can help to alleviate hayfever symptoms. Peppermint is renowned for clearing congestion and helping to reduce sneezing, itching and wheezing. Selected lines are stocked by leading retailers, including Tesco, Sainsbury's and Morrisons, and health stores.
