Using
Melatonin To Stop Loss Of Vision |
|
Macular
Degeneration (AMD) affects nearly 2 million Americans
and is the leading cause of blindness for those over
60. If you have been diagnosed with AMD, you now have
an option to explore. Melatonin has been shown to
protect retinal cells from damage. In a 2005 study,
researchers gave 100 patients with AMD 3 mg of melatonin
at bedtime for three to six months. The researchers
found that the visual acuity in most of the patients
remained stable and that there was far less retinal
deterioration than expected. |
|
Since
melatonin can also help you sleep better at night
- even if it doesn’t work to stop AMD - you’ll have
a better night’s sleep.

Foods
Losing Their Taste? |
If
you are finding that your foods seem tasteless -
and this could affect your desire to eat - you may
find that zinc supplements could solve the problem.
A study in Germany found that fifty percent of the
subjects who took a 20 mg tablet of elemental zinc
gluconate per day reported improvement in their
ability to taste food. Clinical tests confirmed
this improvement. As an added benefit, the people
taking zinc also showed less sign of severe depression.
|
|
So…if
foods are losing their desirability for you, try zinc
tablets. |

Stopping
Asthma In Its Tracks |
Recent
research has found that magnesium sulfate, when given
intravenously, can stop an asthma attack. Most Emergency
Room doctors are aware of this therapy and even accept
its efficacy. Despite this awareness, it is used in
only 2.5% of the Emergency Room asthma cases. If you
have an asthma emergency and have to go to the ER,
ask for a magnesium sulfate IV right away. |
|
You
can even inhale magnesium. When used alone or with
an asthma drug, magnesium has been shown to improve
pulmonary function and reduce hospital admissions
in patients suffering with asthma attacks. |
|
So…as
a safeguard, if you have asthma, take at least 1000
mg of supplemental magnesium per day. Be aware that
high doses can cause diarrhea in some people and if
you have kidney disease talk to your doctor first. |
|
To
Multitask or Not To Multitask |
With
our cell phones, computers, MP3 players and IPods,
many of us are multitasking all the time…. And we
think we can do it successfully. Well, that is not
what the latest research is showing. A study by the
National Academy of Sciences has found that while
you can learn while you are distracted, multi-tasking
changes how you learn and how well you can use the
knowledge that you’ve learned. |
|
The
researchers found that when participants in the study
were focused, they used one part of the brain. When
they were doing several tasks at the same time, this
multitasking caused another part of the brain to activate.
Use of this part of the brain resulted in a reduction
of participant’s knowledge about the task during a
follow-up session. The researchers did find, however,
that music can help learning because it made the participants
happier. |
|
I
have found that playing Steven Halpern’s subliminal
music CD on Accelerated Learning, Enhancing Success
or Enhancing Creativity increases effectiveness and
creativity. For information on ordering these CDs
for your kids or yourself, visit www.teplitz.com/book_epn_cart.htm
and click on Personal Subliminal Music. |

Consumer
Demand Working To Eliminate Bovine Growth Hormone |
Due
to increased consumer demand, Wal-Mart and Dean
Foods, the largest retailer and distributor of milk
and dairy products have begun pressing for the elimination
of bovine growth hormone (rBGH) from their products.
This synthetic hormone is designed to make dairy
cows produce more milk. The hormone has already
been banned in Europe and Canada because of its
links to increased risk for cancer and antibiotic
resistance. Starbucks, however, is one of the retailers
that still allows this hormone in the milk products
that they serve. So…next time you go to Starbucks,
ask them to get with it and eliminate rBGH from
their milk. |

Edgar
Cayce The Father Of Holistic Medicine |
Edgar
Cayce (1877 - 1945), one of the fathers of holistic
medicine, was an intuitive diagnostician who tapped
into universal healing traditions. For 43 years,
in over 9,000 medical readings, practices ranging
from proper diet, to meditation, to mind/body healing,
to environmental health were recommended. This relevant
information is at the forefront of today's complementary
health. |
|
Edgar
Cayce's legacy combines the best of folk medicine
with insightful alternative therapies and progressive
research, while enhancing the work of holistic and
regular physicians. Thirty-six years ago the Heritage
Store in Virginia Beach, Virginia began making and
distributing health and beauty aids based upon the
formulas and principles of Edgar Cayce's remedies.
Today, using the purest ingredients combined with
the latest research the Heritage Store laboratory
makes natural health products to fill mail order requests
from doctors, chiropractors, massage therapists and
individuals around the world. |
|
The
Heritage Store has a catalog available that offers
the Cayce remedies as well as environmental products
for clean, non-toxic ways to enhance your home, natural
remedies and supplements to help alleviate pain without
side effects, For a FR^EE catalog call (800) 862-2923,

Why
Employees Leave |
A
study reported by Towers Perrin Global Workforce
Study found that the primary reasons employees stay
at companies, are as follows:
|
|
1.
Managers understand what motivates them
2. Challenging work
3. Career advancement
4. Visibility, honesty, consistency of their managers
5. Interest in employee |
|
Compensation
and benefits are often lower on the list of reasons
as to why people leave. According to Robert Half International
employee data, the reasons people leave are typically
due to management, work environment and/or the actions
of a direct supervisor. |
|
The
Sirota Survey Intelligence reports that employees
who that feel their manager does not respect them
are 3 times more likely to leave their employer over
the next 2 years than those who feel respected. |
|
So…to
me, this means that managers are a significant key
to creating a successful employee. Are you making
sure that your managers are switched on for performing
at their highest levels of effectiveness? Explore
the power of my Switched-On Management Seminar as
a crucial step in training of your managers. For more

was amazingly positive. |

to you, it was the best Customer Appreciation Seminar
the bank has ever held. 99% of those responding to
a questionnaire stated that they wanted to hear you
again. We definitely made some customers for life!”
