Compared to the 1920s, 1940s, and even the 1960s, the number of people getting sick today has reached astounding numbers!
New diseases are being identified all the time, seemingly coming out of nowhere.
But in truth these diseases aren’t arising from thin air, more and more scientific research is suggesting that the use of pesticides and other chemicals on our food and clothing is to blame!
So I ask you: Knowing that inorganic foods are sprayed with chemicals developed for fighting a war or that inorganic clothing is exposed to phenomenal levels of dangerous chemicals, why do you continue to subject yourself and your family to harm, especially since there is a solution that is readily available, affordable, and proven to work?

How Do You Get Chronic Tension Headaches?
Simply put, tension headaches come from muscle tension in your neck, shoulders and upper back.
This tension is usually a result of poor posture and, less frequently, some sort of trauma (like a car accident).
Conventional treatments (painkillers, muscle relaxers) have little or no effect on chronic tension headaches.
This is because they treat the symptoms, not the cause.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - In treating adult patients with pharyngitis, the problem is not which guidelines primary care practitioners use but that they often don’t follow any guidelines, Harvard investigators assert in the July 10th issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine.
Dr. Jeffrey A. Linder and others at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard University in Boston, Massachusetts, set out to measure clinician adherence to any of three sets of treatment guidelines for adult pharyngitis. They conducted a retrospective analysis of visits by 2,097 adults to nine Boston-area primary care clinics.
| “Clinicians were adherent to the American College of Physicians’ empirical strategy in 12% of visits, the American College of Physicians’ test strategy in 30% of visits, the Infectious Diseases Society of America’s strategy in 30% of visits, and adherent to none in 66% of visits,” the team found.   Â
The most common reason for nonadherence to treatment guidelines was testing or prescribing of antibiotics to adults at low risk of streptococcal pharyngitis, but there could be a number of other possibilities, Dr. Linder told Reuters Health. |

Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) is seen in healthy people. GERD is thought to have a multifactorial etiology rather than a single cause. Contributing factors include the caustic materials that are refluxed, a breakdown in the defense mechanisms of the esophagus and a functional abnormality that results in reflux.
Â
Definition
Gastroesophageal reflux disease may be defined as symptoms or tissue damage caused by reflux of gastric contents with or without esophageal inflammation. However, this definition can blur the distinction between healthy people and those with GERD because a mild degree of esophageal reflux is considered physiologic. Other accepted definitions of GERD include reflux esophagitis identified by endoscopic examination and histologic esophagitis identified by examination of tissue samples.

When our scientists set out to discover weapons in the fight against aging, they turned to an old ally: naturally occurring peptides.
Peptides play a vital role in the skin’s healing process. These protein molecules, found naturally in the body, send out signals when damaged skin is in need of repair. OHT Peptide-3 contains three patented peptides that target both upper and lower layers of the skin, helping to reduce wrinkles and repairing stretch marks. |
- Palmitoyl Oligopeptide-3 (Ceramide Oligopeptide-3) is clinically proven to regenerate the skin’s upper layers by stimulating collagen production and thickening the epidermis—not unlike the regeneration.
- Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3 is proven to suppress the body’s production of interleukins, the chemical messengers that trigger inflammation.
- Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 is proven to help reduce wrinkles by disrupting the nerve signals sent to tense muscle beneath the dermis—functionally relaxing them and smoothing the overlying skin.
