Powerful Health Secrets/Are Your Glasses Hurting Your Eyes?


Are Your Glasses Actually Hurting Your Eyes?



Almost half the population in America wears some sort of artificial lens, glasses or contact lenses. Artificial lenses may help improve your vision, but it is just a temporary fix. Glasses and lenses can never fix your eye problems. Artificial lenses can help you see things more clearly, but they are mainly for the symptoms of eye problems and do not cure the actual ailment.



The main problem with artificial lenses is they teach you bad habits and allow your eyes to work incorrectly. You quickly become dependent on the lenses and keep your eyes from healing themselves. If you can teach your eyes to be more relaxed, the need for glasses and lenses would go away completely.



The main cause of most eye ailments is mental stress and strain on the eyes. The key is to learn how to avoid strain in the first place. That is not always possible, so learning new habits to deal with strain is the next step.discover more valuable health secrets. Click Here!

Powerful Health Secrets/The Danger of a Lie

The Dangers of a Lie







Everyone has a told a lie once or twice. A lie is anything that isn’t the truth. Taking away a few pounds on your driver’s license, allowing people to believe you are a few years younger, or keeping the whole truth for someone are all lies. White lies may make us feel better and keep us from hurting others, but the damage is all in the eyes.




Lying hurts and damages the eyes no matter how small the lie may be. Lying puts strain on the eyes and keeps them from properly working. For one, you have to make up the lie and then remember all the details so you don’t get caught. This extra concentration and strain on the eyes causes damage.click here for more information!




A retinoscope is what the trained professionals use to see who is lying to them. The retinoscope works better than a polygraph test because the eyes don’t lie, even if you do. The retinoscope tests for refraction, the eyes’ ability to focus on light. A lie changes how the eyes see and how they react to light.


Someone who lies on a daily basis may actually start to believe their own lies, but the mind still knows the truth. The mind also has a funny way of deciphering its own reality, especially if you have trained yourself to believe your lies. Now, you may start to hear things you want to hear twisting the truth to fit your own reality. Hearing what you want can cause some serious problems and some major arguments.
Strain on the eyes can cause you to lose focus and concentration. Your conversations with other people won’t go well because you will be unable to hear what they are really saying. Arguments will be difficult because your mind is unable to handle the truth or it can’t take in anything negative.

The worst thing we can do to our eyes is strain them. Too much mental strain and focus can actually harm our eyesight and cause the eyes permanent damage. Bad habits start from childhood, especially once school starts. These bad habits carry over into adulthood and cause damage to the eyes. Most of eye problems and ailments are simply caused by the bad habits learned in our youth.

  Children are forced to spend hours each day learning and memorizing things.
Children have a natural curiosity to learn new things. Ask any kindergartener or first grader if they are excited for school and they will almost always say yes with genuine enthusiasm. Ask the same question of a junior high or high school student and they will moan at the thought of going back to school for another year.

Why the huge difference between the two? School is too disciplined and children are forced to spend hours each day learning and memorizing thing
s that don’t interest them. Any subject that is uns that don’t interest them. Any subject that is uninteresting causes more concentration and the eyes to strain through. Not every person enjoys the same subjects, yet all children are forced to memorize and learn things in an uninteresting way.


The eyes strain when forced to concentrate on images that don’t interest us. Like numbers on an analytical report for work isn’t going to interest all the employees, mathematics, science, and English won’t interest every student. This doesn’t mean that have a well-rounded education should be thrown out the window. It simply means there needs to be a change in how children are educated.

The Bates Method was discovered by Dr. William Bates, a famous eye doctor. In his method, Dr. Bates put together a large, poster-sized card covered in common shapes and letters familiar to most school age children. The card was hung at the front on the classroom and offered the students something to look at when they were feeling tired or overwhelmed. The purpose of the card was to give the children a chance to relax their eyes. Looking at new material puts strain on the eyes, but familiar objects allow the eyes to relax.

Teaching children not to strain their eyes from a young age will help keep their vision sharp for years to follow.
 

POWERFUL HEALTH SECRETS/HOW STEVIA HEALS DIABETES

I was researching the natural sweetener stevia last week  and made a surprising discovery: It has an under-publicized healing effect on Type 2 diabetes and prediabetes.
In one study, researchers induced diabetes in laboratory rats by giving them alloxan, a chemical that damages the cells in the pancreas responsible for producing insulin. (This is the same alloxan found in white bread by the way.) In the study, researchers discovered that giving stevia to the diabetic rats counteracted the damage done to the pancreas.
Granted, this was an animal study. But many scientific studies begin with rats because their physiology is remarkably similar to that of humans.
Pennington Biomedical Research Center showed that people who consumed stevia with their meal had lower insulin and glucose levels compared to people who consumed the very same meal with Splenda or aspartame.
Stevia is a centuries-old folk remedy for diabetes
In case you don’t know about it, stevia is a super-sweet plant from South America, where it has been used as a sweetener for more than 1,500 years.
A member of the sunflower family (Asteraceae), the species known as stevia rebaudiana (commonly called sweetleaf, sweet leaf, sugarleaf, or stevia) is 45 times as sweet as table sugar (sucrose) in the natural plant form.
But when its steviol glycosides are extracted, the resulting product is an incredible 300 times sweeter than pure cane sugar.
Not only have the early cultures of Paraguay, Brazil, Argentina, and Bolivia used stevia to sweeten their food and beverages, but it’s also in their “medicine cabinet.” They’ve used stevia medicinally for centuries to regulate blood sugar (they also appreciate its anti-hypertension, anti-hypoglycemic, and many other healing properties).




Modern research confirms stevia’s health benefits
Indeed, stevia is an ideal sweetener for people who want to control their weight and/or blood sugar. And here’s why...
While it is super-sweet, stevia contains zero calories, making it ideal for weight loss. (By comparison, a teaspoon of table sugar contains 16 calories.)
In addition, stevia has no negative effect on blood glucose -- nor does it trigger the body’s insulin response. In fact, some preliminary studies are giving scientists reason to believe that stevia may even play a key part in stabilizing blood sugar levels in diabetics.
Another explanation offered for stevia’s beneficial effect on diabetes and blood sugar problems is that it allows the pancreas to rest and repair itself because it doesn’t stimulate the insulin response.






Stevia: The safe, smart sweetener
The same can’t be said for artificial sweeteners such as NutraSweet, Splenda, and Sweet-n-Low, which contain aspartame.
Stevia is very different from these so-called "diabetes safe" chemical products.
First of all, stevia is completely natural and safe. Aspartame, on the other hand, produces a number of adverse side effects and is linked to brain disorders, MS, Parkinson’s, dementia, and Alzheimer’s.
In his excellent book, Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills, Dr. Russell Blaylock describes numerous research studies that show a direct link with aspartame and the destruction of brain cells connected to these  disorders.
Aspartame is also responsible for 75% of all adverse reactions reported to the FDA, including seizures and death, making it the most dangerous additive in our foods and beverages. People relying on these diet foods and beverages to help them lose weight and/or manage their blood sugar are making a big mistake
Last year, our Test Kitchen put every single stevia-based sweetener to a stringent taste test -- and not one of them passed.
Every product and brand produced this aftertaste to one degree or another.
It’s a shame, because everything else about stevia makes it a “dream sweetener” -- and perfect for weight loss ... blood sugar control ... and, quite possibly, helping to reverse Type 2 and prediabetes.
Some people I’ve spoken to don’t mind stevia’s aftertaste. One man told me: “It’s a small price to pay for being able to eat sweets again without blowing my diet or spiking my blood sugar.”
Still, with so much going for it, you’d think someone would be able get rid of stevia’s bitter aftertaste. That would take it from “almost perfect” to “absolutely perfect” in my book.
Who knows, maybe someday someone will.
