In a previous article entitled, "What Are the Top Eight Deadly Public Health Enemies", it was discovered there are eight deadly public health enemies that are killing more than 24 million people a year and causes debilitating symptoms in millions of others. The top eight were heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis, Alzheimer's, and obesity. The good new is, there is ammunition that everyone can have in their arsenals to combat these deadly enemies. Let's discover what they are.
1. Elimination of Toxins: Our bodies are full of toxins.
If they are not eliminated, sickness and disease develop. Therefore, cleanses to detoxify the body are important. The basic ones are colon cleanses, liver/gallbladder cleanses, kidney/bladder cleanses, heavy metal cleanses, parasite cleanses, candida cleanses, and full body fat tissue/lymphatic cleansers.
2. Proper Nutrition Supplementation: Our soil is depleted; our environments are toxic; stress of all types press against us. The bottom line: it is essential to make sure our bodies are getting the appropriate amount of vitamins and minerals to promote cell and bone health.
Therefore, taking high quality nutritional supplements is a must.
3. A Squeaky Clean Elimination System: An elimination system that efficiently and effectively allows toxins to quickly exit the body is essential. This means being very careful of what we eat. In order for this to occur, our diets should consist of lots of raw green grasses (e.g. wheat grass, barley green grass), raw vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.
It also means staying away from sugar of any type, processed foods, dairy, and meat products. Organic food is also the best. Excellent books to read about this are "The pH Balance" by Dr. Steve Young and
"Natural Cures They Don't Want You To Know About" by Kevin Trudeau.
4. Stop Smoking: Smoking can cause all kinds of health disorders.
It also places a tremendous strain on our bodies systems. Abstaining is crucial.
5. No Tap Water: Tap water is loaded with toxins, poisons, containminents, fluoride, and chlorine. Instead, drink pure water such as water filtered by osmosis or purified by steam distillation.
6. Get A Shower Filter: Taking a shower can cause your body to absorb more toxins than drinking eight glasses of tap water.
This is because your skin absorbs all that steam through which many of the chemicals in the water turn into poisonous gas. A good shower filter can prevent this. The Nikken Company has some great filters.
7. Eat Organic Food: As much as possible, eat what has not been grown with chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides.
8. Avoid Fast Food Restaurants: The food in these restaurants usually is nutritionally deficient and loaded with harmful chemicals.
9.
Reduce Stress: There are lots of ways to reduce stress. These include deep breathing, stretching muscles in a Pilates or Yoga class, exercising, engaging in fun and relaxing hobbies, spending time with friends, etc.
10. Drink Water: It is important to drink lots of water everyday. Not tap water, but pure water. Pure water flushes the body, keeps it hydrated, and promotes a proper pH balance.
So, there you have it.
The top 10 ammunition that everyone can have in their arsenal to combat the top eight deadly public health enemies. Follow them and be on your way to outstanding health

When staining a deck, see that the surface is clean, or use a deck cleaner to clean the surface. Old decks might contain mildew, algae or mold, hence it is good to use wood brightener. Use sanding sponges or sandpaper to clean the surface of mill-glazed wood. Leave the surface to dry from two to three days before staining for good results. Choose the best quality stain so that the life expectancy of your deck will increase.
You can use semi-transparent deck stains to show through the wood's grain. If you want the surface to be opaque, you can use solid deck stains that come in different colors.
It is preferable to apply stain when the atmospheric temperature is between 50 degrees Fahrenheit and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Applying stain during dew or frost or wet weather may lead to bad results. Allow it to dry for two to three days and avoid drying under direct sunlight.
A stain brush is advisable for spraying as it has greater penetration into...
An Urban Clothing Company Giving Back To The Inner City
(ContentDesk) August 17, 2005 -- Blu Leaf Clothing, the creation of DJ, formerly of Watts California, has a mandate to help kids in inner cities around the country.The company was founded in late 2003 with a clear mission to fully participate in the billions of dollars spent on urban clothing. Starting in its own backyard Blu Leaf began working with the Watts Willowbrook Boys and Girls club helping young teenagers learn the business of fashion. And also by sponsoring up and coming rapper Glasses Malone, also from Watts, who is currently the focus of a bidding war with several major record labels."It was always funny to me to see people who have never lived in the hood take urban fashion and make it corporate and not give one cent in return to where the energy comes from. My concept was to create a clothing company from the street and stay there. Just recently Blu Leaf was a sponsor at the Watts Summer Festival in Watts, CA.
On the first day of the festival we witnessed a teenager...

Waiter Corkscrew
This is probably the most ubiquitous wine opener in the world, and the ultimate in simplicity.
This tool features a design that allows the entire tool to fit in your pocket, and as such has become the overwhelming favorite of wait staff and picnic goers.
There are three essential parts that all fold out from the body of the tool: the corkscrew itself, a lever that acts as a fulcrum on the top of the bottle, and a small foilcutter to cut the foil from the top of the bottle.
No wine cellar would be equipped without one at a minimum for backup.
To use the opener simply remove the foil from the neck with the knife, twist the corkscrew fully into the cork, and then place the lever on the top of the bottle and pull the cork up and out.
Some devices feature two shoulders on the lever in order to maximize leverage, in this case use the one halfway down the lever first, finally use the top shoulder to get the cork...
