			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our home should be our sanctuary – the one place in the world that makes us feel relaxed and safe. Moreover, it should be a healthy place allowing us and our families to live as well and as ailment –free as possible. Unfortunately, due to the amount of hazardous materials and pollutants in the environment, this is often easier said than done and it may take considerable effort on the part of the individual to ensure their home is the safest and healthiest place it can be. <span id="more-1051"></span></p>
<p><img align="right" title="Healthy Home" src="http://www.mednewsreports.com/images/healthy-home.jpg" alt="Healthy Home" border="0" />With the current interest and prevalence of ‘green’ related information and products, the home owner will be able to educate themselves quite well about the different techniques they can use to make their homes healthier. One of the easiest and cheapest ways to start is by banning all chemical cleaning products from the home. We all too often feel that we must use the latest cleaning product, with its promise of fast-acting and powerful cleansing properties, when the truth is that not only are these products teeming with environmental hazards and chemicals, the process of using them may, in the long term, have a devastating effect on our general health. By making the switch to all natural cleansers, not only do we help ourselves in terms of health, but also help keep the environment chemical free. Popular cleaning alternatives include products that one likely has in the house already, including white vinegar, baking soda, borax and lemon. Vinegar and baking soda in particular have proved to be marvellous at performing all kinds of varied tasks, from deodorizing to unclogging drains, and should be a staple in every home cleaning kit.</p>
<p>Fortunately, the sale of chemically-laden paints, stains and varnishes is not as widespread as it once was, and more manufacturers are being able to produce good quality decorating products that use environmentally friendly substances, thus cutting down on the levels of toxicity in the home. Even so, the homeowner would be wise to pick those products that require only soap and water clean-up and even avoid using certain materials in the house that may contain formaldehyde and other toxic substances. In fact, the use of natural materials is always a better choice or, if they are not natural, ensuring that surfaces are well-sealed will keep the release of chemicals to a minimum.</p>
<p>While it can be difficult due to our busy schedules, keeping our home as clean as possible can drastically reduce the amount of toxins and pollutants in the air, which some experts say can be at higher levels than the air outside the home. One of the simplest ways to keep the house clean is by ensuring shoes are always taken off at the front door, and that a good quality vacuum cleaner, preferably one with  Hepa filter, is used on a regular basis, even daily if there are animals or allergy sufferers in the house. Avoiding rugs and carpeting is important in terms of reducing the amount of dust and mold in the air, and, if necessary, using an air-purifier will further aid those with environmental allergies. Keeping the house well ventilated is vital, and it is always more beneficial to air out the home naturally by opening a window, rather than using commercial air fresheners which, particularly in the case of the cheaper variety, may actually release damaging chemicals into the air.</p>
<p>Finally, ensuring the home is clear of clutter and as organized as possible will further create a healthy atmosphere and help the home owner feel mentally relaxed and distressed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When most people think of ‘detox’ they generally associate it with the method of withdrawing from an addictive substance and whilst this is true, there is a whole other side of detoxification that promotes good health and cleanses the entire body.<span id="more-1048"></span></p>
<p><img align="right" title="Cleansing and Detoxification" src="http://www.mednewsreports.com/images/cleansing.jpg" alt="Cleansing and Detoxification" border="0" />Partly due to our rushed daily routine and stressful environment, a lot of us are simply not as healthy as we could be and the effects of this type of lifestyle can take their toll over the years often resulting in chronic illness, weight gain and general lack of energy and vitality. Most people don’t realise that they are in fact carrying around as much as 10 lbs of waste in their bodies, mostly from impacted matter stuck in the colonic tract. Not only is this preventing them from losing weight but can lead to a great number of other symptoms, from the not so serious such as skin problems and fatigue through to life-threatening diseases like colon cancer.</p>
<p>There are a number of methods to cleansing the colon and a quick search on the internet will bring up a large amount of so-called ‘cleansing’ products that often consist of herbal supplements. While one should not dismiss these straight away, it should be noted that many of these products are simply made up of herbal laxatives that will indeed increase elimination, but not do much else for the individual. While for many, an increase in bowel movements may help relieve temporary constipation, it is important not to become reliant on this type of laxative as over time, the bowel can become ‘lazy’ and fail to work as efficiently without the help of a supplement. However, once in a while would certainly not do any harm, although it is certainly not necessary to spend a lot of money on a cleansing product when the individual components can be purchased for half the price! Anyone considering this type of treatment should talk to their health care provider first, just to check that there is no medical reason for them not to proceed, and then consult with a herbalist for recommended supplements. While herbs such as cascara sagrada and senna are popular, their safety over the long term has been in doubt, and it may be wiser to stay with a more known product such as licorice. Using fiber as a way to increase elimination is excellent as many of us do not get enough of this important food group in our daily diet anyway. Phyllium husk has become a ‘buzz’ ingredient of late, being added to many breakfast cereals, and is an effective way of basically ‘pushing’ out the impacted fecal matter from the colon.</p>
<p>Other popular methods of detoxifying the body include liquid diets or juice-fasting, and the ‘master cleanse’ is a particularly well-known method, having been used by many celebrities to maintain their body weight. Although it should not be practised for too long, and the ingredients may not exactly sound appealing, the combination of lemon juice, water, maple syrup and cayenne pepper has proven extremely effective in obtaining quick results. More extreme forms of fasting, particularly those that require absolutely no food intake for long periods of time are definitely not recommended for the average person and should only be undertaken with strict supervision, if at all. By far a healthier method of ‘fasting’ would be to substitute some meals with fresh fruit and vegetable smoothies, increasing the intake of water and reducing the meals eaten to very simple fare such as brown rice and fibrous vegetables.</p>
<p>As with any type of diet, it is important to not expect miracles in terms of weight loss and practise these methods in moderation and only ever with the approval from you r doctor.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is a sad fact but the population in North America is growing, not only in terms of numbers, but in terms of their girth. Obesity levels among adults are at the highest they have ever been, putting a huge strain not only on the individual’s health, but also on the entire health care system. Even sadder still is that more and more children are suffering from obesity, a figure that was recently put at least one in five children in the U.S. Based on the Body Mass Index, which takes into consideration height and weight, an obese child is one whose weight is 20% higher than that of an average, healthy weight individual of the same age.<span id="more-1046"></span><br />
<img align="right" title="Childhood Obesity" src="http://www.mednewsreports.com/images/childhood-obesity.jpg" alt="Childhood Obesity" border="0" />Some of the reasons for this jump in the number of obese kids are obvious and apply just as much to adults as they do children. Rather than being hereditary or genetic, one of the biggest factors in obesity is the combination of our sedentary lifestyle and increased intake of unhealthy, high fat food. This is truer now than ever before and ironically enough, the cases of obesity have risen along with the popularity of ‘quick fix’ diets and weight loss products. In other words, many of us want to lose weight we just don’t want to have to work too hard at it and it is this attitude that can unfortunately influence our children. In fact it is the parent’s  general approach and attitude towards healthy living that contributes in a major way to whether a child is overweight or not, and as a parent, he or she must take responsibility for not only educating their child about nutrition and exercise, but first educate themselves. For example, if a child sees their parents sitting on the couch every evening or snacking on chips etc. they are hardly going to listen to their advice when it comes to healthy eating! Unfortunately, for many children, the damage can be done at an even earlier age for studies have shown that not only do  prolonged breastfeeding and the delaying of solid food to the diet reduce the risk of childhood obesity, but an overweight mother will often produce an overweight baby.</p>
<p>There is no doubt that in addition to the influence from the parent, the media surrounding our children does very little to encourage healthy habits. Children are generally more likely to be found playing video games rather than playing outside in the fresh air (although the introduction of certain sports video games has made them somewhat more physical) and food products aimed specifically at the younger consumer are often overloaded with sugar and fat, sometimes even under the guise as being a healthier choice, as is the case with many breakfast cereals.</p>
<p>As a parent or caregiver, it is more important now than it ever was to ensure that we set  good example to our kids, and, if the child is already suffering from obesity, do everything we can to help them get to a healthy weight, and deal with some of the more damaging psychological problems that can be associated with the condition, particularly in the form of teasing at school and low-self esteem issues. Encouraging your child to make healthy choices in all areas of his or her life is important, whether it is making subtle food substitutions in their favourite meals, learning a new sport or activity together and talking about the many benefits of living at  healthy body weight and more importantly, one that is right for them as an individual.</p>
