Cholesterol Facts

Cholesterol fact #1: For decades now, we've known that if your cholesterol falls under 180, you're at twice the risk of a stroke of those who are in the range of 230.

Cholesterol fact #2: A study published in the American Journal of Medicine discovered that if you're in your 70s and have cholesterol numbers below 160, you're twice as likely to die as someone whose numbers are as high as 199.

Cholesterol fact #3: Cholesterol is vital to keeping your brain functioning properly! A study done almost a decade ago from researchers at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine found that "high cholesterol is associated with better memory function" in seniors!

These are the findings of a study by a team of researchers, led by Drs. Gary Null, PhD and Carolyn Dean MD, ND,

==> 1. An estimated nine million Americans are unnecessarily hospitalized every year.

==> 2. About 750,000 deaths occur in the United States alone as a direct result of poor medical care.

==> 3. Every year, 20 million unnecessary prescriptions are written for antibiotics to treat minor VIRAL infections.

Six ways to soothe your eyes and save your vision

by Dr. David Eifrig

1) Have a good balance between the light from your display screen and ambient light.

2) Adjust the display on your screen.

3) Change the color temperature of your screen or even add a blue-light filter.

4) Pay attention to how you sit. Here are some basics for good computer posture:
a. Your eyes should be about three feet away from the screen.
b. The middle of the screen should be about six inches below eye level.
c. Keep proper posture with a good, supportive chair.

5) Try eye drops.

6) Follow the “20-20-20 rule.” Every 20 minutes, look at an object 20 feet away or more, for at least 20 seconds.

The Dangers of Enhanced MRI

Gadolinium-based contrast agents used in MRIs pose serious risks to all those who are injected with them -- and once this heavy metal is inside of you, it won't be leaving anytime soon.

These dyes can also result in a list of symptoms that include pain, changes in skin, twitching, eye problems, hair loss, and balance difficulties.

But those aren't the only things that patients getting an MRI using a GBCA need to worry about.

There's also the horrific skin disease called nephrogenic system fibrosis -- a condition that can make your skin and joints feel and look like wood (which is a very real risk for anyone with kidney problems).


1. Make sure an MRI is really necessary for your situation or that of a loved one.
2. If it turns out that you really do need it, find out if the MRI will involve a GBCA (which is called an "enhanced" MRI).
3. And if you're told it will be enhanced, follow the advice of HSI panel member Dr. Allan Spreen... and "adamantly" refuse it.

Getting A Good Night's Sleep

1. Just as you did with the kids, give yourself the benefit of a regular bedtime -- one that will allow you to snooze for at least seven hours (or, even better, eight) -- and stick to it.

2. Put down the phone, the tablet, and all other electronic gadgets a good hour or so before you go to bed. The light these devices give off can zap your natural production of melatonin that makes it easier for you to fall asleep.

3. Keep your bedroom as dark as possible. And if you usually get up during the night to use the bathroom, instead of keeping nightlights on, put a flashlight by your bed instead.

4. Don't have coffee or anything else that's high in caffeine, such as chocolate and strong types of tea (think English breakfast!), too late in the afternoon, as those stimulating effects can stick with you for a good six hours.

And remember, sleeping pills aren't the answer. Along with their many side effects they can also negatively impact your memory -- which natural sleep can actually help to restore.
