Body Mind Freedom
How To Get Healthy & Live A Healthy Lifestyle

I normally don’t do this, but figured my readers would enjoy a repost of an article I wrote over at “Essential Health Nuggets”. I have kept my posting to a minimum because I am planning big things for my online buiness and so I’ve been in limbo. So it’s a mixed bag for your entertainment (not [...]

I came across another very interesting commentary by Mike Adams of Natural News and Counterthink.com. You can find it here, complete with a cartoon to keep you smiling and give you hope. Mike identifies 6 realities that need to be faced honestly by the American people … and which have huge potential application here in Britain [...]

Anyone who follows any of my blogs knows just how serious the BP oil spill disaster threatens to be. It has already wreaked massive damage … yet people are still talking about it in economic terms! It is clear we still haven’t understood the potential magnitude of this disaster … so again I refer you to a [...]

OK, I know, I’ve been really bad about posting on this blog. My excuse? I’m getting ready to totally overhaul my online presence and it’s all I can do to keep all the balls in the air. How’s that for refreshing honesty? Here’s another unforgiveable misdemeaner … today’s post is a repost of a post I did on my [...]

I came across a link today that I feel should be shared by every sentient being on the planet. We are still viewing the BP oil spill disaster in economic terms, but Mother Nature is starting to make it clear that the environment is far more critical than any economy. In fact no economy can exist long [...]

Today, I thought I’d draw your mind to a little  gem that appeared on the BBC Breakfast website this morning. You can find it here. Essentially, a team of Harvard researchers found that as little as 50  grams of processed meat a day increases your risk of both heart disease and diabetes. However, it also concluded that [...]

Yes, I know, it’s been ages since I last posted. Here’s why. My great legions of followers will know that I have been trying to build an online business for the last two years. In that time, I’ve written a product (short e-book), updated it three times and set up various blogs and support systems. But, if [...]

Over-eating is a global obsession. Billions of people eat too much, know this and still can’t seem to help themselves. So why do they do it? Well, it would seem there are two main root causes: emotional imbalance and physiological dependence. We over-eat because excess food dulls that intangible pain that lurks deep within us … and [...]

In today's diet-obsessed, over-indulgent, medically-dependent world ... here's why we are fat and unhealthy.

It never really felt right, did it?

Finally, after yesterday's 4-1 drubbing by Germany, English fans must face the reality that our team just wasn't that good.

Sure we had stars, all of whom had a proven pedigree (though never on the game's most important stage).

But that's life ... and that's sport.

Now the biggest problem seems to be how to remove...

No question ... the saga in the Gulf just keeps getting more sordid by the day.

First (but in no particular order of "ouch!"), the BP share price has fallen to a point where the oil giant has lost about 53 billion of value. This affects the pensions of about 17 million people in the UK, though the effect is relatively tiny at this point.

Now we h...

As we enter 40 days plus in the Gulf of Mexico disaster, some people are still framing the BP oil disaster in economic terms.

So Nature is quietly upping the ante!

This link should be required reading for any semi-conscious human being on the planet. It's a post by Health Ranger Mike Adams who is reporting on location.

Yes, he is far more sensation...

I really struggled to come up with a suitable title for this post.

BBC Breakfast this morning ran a report on an NHS trust in Derbyshire that had gotten into bed with local farmers. On the surface it all made infinite sense ... buy local meat instead of importing from South America at a premium.

Millions of pounds would be saved by the NHS and loc...

As the "Big Three" parties do their best to woo last minute undecided voters I am reminded of the word on everyones' lips ... "change".

What will change?

Taxes will go up. Inflation will go up. The rift between the "haves" and the "have-nots" will widen further.

Our health will continue to degrade ... and the NHS will be in a position to pay for le...

I thought today I'd have some fun and be as provocative as possible without getting too crazy.

If you watched the great TV debate last night between Labour, the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats ... you probably were left with a sense of sterility and frustration.

By the way, I do have some commentary about all-things-health, but you'll have...

Tonight on BBC, "Panorama" will be featuring a program on childrens' health called appropriately "Spoilt Rotten".

This morning's BBC Breakfast featured 5-year old Kaitlyn who has just had 8 of her teeth extracted because of teeth decay. The reporter noted that tooth decay is the "ultimate preventable condition" which can be "entirely avoided with...

This is a post I wrote for one of my other blogs, "Body Mind Freedom". I have posted it here in its entirety because I believe it is a perfect example of a system that is fundamentally flawed.

My take may surprise you ...

"New research suggests that "5-a-day" is not all it's cracked up to be.

After tracking half a million people in the UK and Europ...

In a series of studies published by ?The Lancet?, researchers from both the UK and Sweden examined the effect of the month-to-month variability of blood pressure on stroke risk.

This research suggests that the extent of fluctuation is a bigger predicator of risk than the average figure ? which flies in the face of guidelines followed by GP?s for ...

It had to happen sooner or later!

In an attempt to offer wise counsel to the family of a young girl, the NHS really hit a nerve.

Lucy Davies is a perfectly normal 5 year old who is active, enjoys cheerleading and ballet ... and walks a fair bit. Her parents received a letter from the NHS saying she was overweight.

Officials measured Lucy's height a...

Hyping up a BBC magazine report on BBC Breakfast yesterday, it was revealed that Gordon Brown has replaced his 4-a-day KitKat habit with 9 bananas a day.

OK, so someone has told him that he needs to be sharp, not brain dead. That's good for a PM right?

What struck me though was that the two intrepid anchors on BBC Breakfast were actually seriously...

Everybody knows the Mediterranean diet is healthy, right?

Wrong!

We've been brainwashed. This misconception all started way back in the 60's when studies were released making claims about this diet.

But dig a little deeper and here's what you find:

The data was taken in the 50's ... a time of post-war recovery (poverty and starvation). On the island...

There have been a deluge of reports recently about underage drinking.

All lament the consequences and long term impact to health ... and ultimately to society. Officials scurry to impose tougher restrictions on irresponsible retailing, or to authorize the confiscation of alcohol on streets.

Experts postulate. Politicians pontificate. The media sti...

It appears that many people have no idea about the dangers of saturated fat hidden in "foods" like butter.

In fact a gentleman by the name of Shyam Kolvekar, a cardiac surgeon from the Heart Hospital at University College, London, suggests that this problem is now so serious that he is seeing people in their 30's requiring coronary bypass surgery...

Finland has extended its anti-tobacco laws to include a ban on cigarette displays in shops and restricting smoking in cars with passengers under 18 years of age.

One thing is clear ... the Finnish government wants to outlaw smoking completely and is prepared to take on the might of the tobacco giants. Philip Morris is already investigating its le...
