American Chiropractic Assoc. Declares “State of Emergency” in Response to S.1955
The American Chiropractic
Association has expressed its strong opposition to proposed legislation that
would deregulate the health insurance market and gut state patient protection
laws. As a result, millions of patients could find themselves without
chiropractic health benefits. The U.S. Senate is considering a bill sponsored
by senator Michael Enzi (R-WY).
The bill, S. 1955, also known as the
“Health Insurance Marketplace Modernization and Affordability Act,” attempts to
expand health care access and reduce insurance costs through the creation of
small business health plans. Small business health plans, often called
association health plans, or AHPs, offer insurance coverage purchased through
guilds on behalf of the small businesses that make up their memberships.
The AARP, American Cancer Society and
American Diabetes Association are working together to defeat the Senate bill,
which they also say could lead to discrimination by employers and sub-standard
coverage for those with chronic illnesses.
What's all the fuss about FATS?
Saturated |
Polyunsaturated | Trans Fat | Partially Hydrogenated | Essential Fatty
Acids
Ok let's get one thing straight from the start. Your
body needs fats and oils to stay healthy.
Fats from fish and vegetable sources provide a
concentrated source of energy in the diet; they also provide the building blocks
for cell membranes and a variety of hormones and hormone-like substances.
Fats as part of a meal slow down absorption so that we
can go longer without feeling hungry. In addition, they act as carriers for
important fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. Dietary fats are needed for the
conversion of carotene to vitamin A, for mineral absorption and for a host of
other processes.
Everyone knows there are good fats and bad fats. But
there are so many references to different kinds of fats today, the average
person can't help but be confused. Don't give up. Here are a few simple
definitions to get you on the right fat track.
Looking for a remedy for
Irritable Bowel Syndrome?
Abdominal pain | Gas
| Bloating | Backaches | Fatigue
During times of stress one of the first areas of the body to be affected is the stomach. If you suffer from constant abdominal pain or discomfort, bloating and constipation, you have
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
With IBS, the nerves and muscles in the bowel are extra-sensitive. For example, the muscles may contract too much when you eat. These contractions can cause cramping and diarrhea during or shortly after a meal. Or the nerves can be overly sensitive to the stretching of the bowel (because of gas, for example). Cramping or pain can result.
