Cortisol insufficiency in dogs.
The adrenal glands cause problems for a lot of dogs. The very overactive adrenal gland is very commonly misdiagnosed because the stressed body needs more cortisol to cope with stress. But the underactive adrenal gland is very commonly under diagnosed.
The majority of veterinary internists today recognize just cortisol insufficiency, when the disease commonly called Addison's disease that's a difficult name, Addison's or hypo (lack of) adrenal cortical. It's difficult because there are three parts of the adrenal cortex and the classic Addison's includes the electrolyte imbalance. This is the classic slow heartbeat, so forth. But now, the papers being published are talking about 60 or 70 percent of hypo — lack of — adrenal gland function — is just cortisol insufficiency. continue

Moringa uses in veterinary practice.
Moringa oleifera is a small to medium-sized tropical tree native to the Indian subcontinent, its drought tolerant and easily adapts to tropical and subtropical climate, enjoying very wide distribution in Asia, Africa and parts of North America. It has been promoted as the Miracle Tree of Africa,because of the myriad of problems it solves.
Moringa is rich in antioxidants,protein, calcium and iron.The incorporation of this herb in food has numerous benefits in man and animals. Our pets have similar disease conditions to man,so much so that they are used as models for clinical studies and trials. The similarities in body systems makes incorporation of proven herbs to their food to get similar results as obtained in man.
The advent of fast foods,overly processed foods and food additives has triggered the surge of diabetes,obesity ,cancer and arthritis in man,these conditions are also encountered in pets many of which has been traced to diet,pet food and processed pet food/treats.
The inclusion of moringa in pet food supply many of the important macro nutrients and essential amino acids absent in commercial food,moringa also laden with antioxidants help to mop up free radicals from the body thus reducing the risk of cancer. Moringa for pets.
Moringa has anti inflammatory property,thus adding moringa to pets food will prevent arthritis making it a number one food additive for the old and aging dogs. The calcium in the moringa is also another added advantage for bone health. The calcium component in moringa makes it a suitable additive for pregnant and lactating pets and farm animals,as the problem of postpartum metabolic disorder experienced at this period is prevented. A pregnant animal needs calcium supplements to prevent rapid depleting from bones which normally progresses to recumbency and death if not treated,but the mixing of moringa with feed will prevent onset of disorder and also ensure good quality and quantity of milk.M
Moringa is an energy booster and also primes the immune system ,a regulated dosing of pets will keep them energetic and alert.The protein content of moringa helps tissue repair and muscle building resulting in rapid wound healing and faster growth rate. Essential amino acids and trace elements present in moringa ensure all body system function properly for health.

Food additives and colon cancer.
Food additives or enhancers are tied to the rise in health problems in man, basically changes in our diet from farm fresh to overly processed foods are not only liked to cancer,but obesity,diabetes ,hypertension and heart diseases.
The pathways of many of these conditions have been linked to food,the additives,food processing and preparation. A lot of food consumed are processed or prepared with carcinogenic substances,others are loaded with sugars while so many others have antibiotics in their muscles from the farms.
The food vendors and processors contribute to majority of these conditions based on the way they handle ,prepare and package food.A recent interview and visit to food huts showed that majority of the vendors are using unconventional methods to prepare food; some vendors boil the cow skin/legs with SUGAR to soften it so as to shorten cooking time.Another group use the very popular painkiller to boil the beef also to soften it ,while another group use monosodium glutamate (msg) as seasoning which has been shown to have carcinogenic properties.
The issue of surge in health problems not only stems from raising animals,but processing and preparation of products and by-products. New research suggests that the emulsifiers added to foods such as ice cream and other processed foods contribute to the development of cancer.
The study, which was conducted at Georgia State University in Atlanta, found that two very common food additives may be associated with a higher risk of colon cancer. Rather than using human subjects, the experiment was performed on laboratory mice. The mice were assigned to one of three groups who received varying diets. One group was fed an emulsifier called sodium carboxymethycellulose; the second group was fed an emulsifier called polysorbate 80; and the third group served as a control and was fed neither emulsifier.
Both groups of rats consuming the additives had changes in their intestinal bacteria that lead to inflammation and colon cancer, whereas the rats who were not exposed to these additives had no such changes occur.
Sodium carboxymethycellulose and polysorbate 80 appears in a number of processed foods, both of these emulsifiers are used to improve the texture of foods as well as to lengthen their shelf life and prevent the separation of oils or fats from the water-based ingredients in the food. Sodium carboxymethycellulose is added to many ice creams, processed cheeses, breakfast cereals, soups, and more. Polysorbate 80 is added to ketchup, mustard, ice creams, whipped toppings, creamy salad dressing, and gelatin.
When next you go to the store,do read labels or better still go natural. Buy farm fresh,and cook fresh produce.see
How to reverse type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes where the body does not utilize insulin properly referred to as insulin resistance. At the initial stage the pancreas makes excess insulin to make up for this but, over time the pancreas cannot keep up and make enough insulin to keep your blood glucose levels normal. Type 2 is usually treated with lifestyle changes, oral medications (pills), and insulin.
When glucose builds up in the blood instead of going into cellsreferred to as hyperglycemia it causes two problems:the cells may be starved for energy initially and over time,the high blood glucose levels will affect eyes, kidneys, nerves or heart. Some people with type 2 can control their blood glucose with healthy eating and being active and drugs to stabilize the glucose level.
A new study ,a Groundbreaking research published by the University of Kentucky, University of California and Newscastle University proves that type 2 diabetes CAN be reversed.Doctors at the International Council for Truth in Medicine are revealing the truth about diabetes that has been suppressed for over 21 years.
Last year they helped over 17,542 type 2 diabetics end the need for prescription drugs, insulin injections and blood sugar monitoring.This year they're on track to help over 30,000. In just a few weeks, 96% of their patients are able to stop ALL diabetes medication and insulin injections,No more neuropathy pain, pricking your finger, or the need for expensive medication.
This is a groundbreaking procedure,the miracle cure ; read
Beans and cancer-fighting properties..
Beans and cancer-fighting properties,this link was established years ago from a research using data from 41 countries, researchers found that eating beans reduced incidence of death from breast, prostate, and colon cancer. As the years have gone by, more and more studies have linked bean eating with reduced risk for many other types of cancer.
This compound inositol hexaphosphate, or IP6 for short, it’s powerful cancer fighting and found in abundance in beans,also beans contains inositol pentakisphosphate (IP10) which is so powerful that it inhibit the growth of tumors in mice.
Beans and all the legumes have anti-aging properties because of their high antioxidant levels. Beans such as Pinto, kidney, and red fill three of the four top slots for overall best antioxidant protection, beating out other fruits and vegetables, according to studies. The study showed that color is key and the darker and more intense the color, the greater the antioxidant protection it confers on consumers.
Recent data from the Nurses Health Study II, among the largest and longest running investigations of factors influencing women’s health, was evaluated to see which flavonol-rich foods were protective of breast tissue in pre-menopausal women age 26 to 46. Researchers found that among the major food groups tested, beans and lentils were most protective, while tea, onions, apples, string beans, broccoli, green pepper and blueberries showed no ability to provide protection.
Beans and other legumes are a food staple in many regions of the world, where they are consumed quite frequently and in large quantities to provide low glycemic energy, protein and fiber. Almost across the board, incidence of breast cancer is significantly lower in these regions.
Plant-based fiber-rich foods such as beans and legumes have a positive effect on renal (kidney) carcinoma and the chronic conditions associated with it, according to recent research. Significantly lowered risk of renal cell carcinoma was observed in those eating beans and other high fiber foods.
People eating dried beans, other legumes, and bean soup show a significantly reduced risk of colon cancer. Data from the Polyp Prevention Trial indicated that eating more beans provides strong protection against recurrence of colon polyps. A study found that people who once had colon cancer were able to reduce their risk of recurrence by 45 percent by frequent bean eating.
