Homeopathy Remedy Finder

Ever curious about homeopathy? This is a great ' remedy finder' website:
ABC Homeopathy.
You start by entering your symptoms, then the software will gather a more detailed picture of your complaint by asking questions to their 'tick' categories. Several minutes and many questions later the website lists remedies that will effect the various symptoms you entered. Only choose one remedy from the list of recommendations to use. The old proverb " more is better" does not apply with homeopathic remedies.

An Apple a Day Keeps Bone Loss Away

A flavonoid found only in apples called phloridzin may help prevent bone loss associated with menopause, suggests a study published in Calcified Tissue International.

A side effect of the sex hormone changes that occur during a woman's transition through menopause is a tendency towards increased inflammation and free radical production, which in turn, promotes bone loss.

Because of their anti-inflammatory actions, polyphenols have been suggested as one means of protecting against bone loss during this pro-inflammatory time in women's lives.

French researchers have discovered that phloridzin may eliminate bone loss in post menopausal women, and even increase bone mineral density.

So go ahead and eat an apple (or two) a day- but make sure it's organic.
