In traditional medicine, back pain is often treated by surgery. And it often doesn't work. So often, in fact, that back pain surgery is the only category of surgery that actually has a clinical term for failure: Failed Back Surgery Syndrome. If you ask me, any treatment that actually expects failure is not a treatment at all. I don't care what type of surgery you're considering. With any treatment that only addresses the symptoms - in this case, pain - the question is not what symptoms you have but what caused them. 3 Reasons Surgery Doesn't WorkI'm not going to tell you that you should not have surgery. I can assure you, however, that once you have surgery, everything changes. You will never be the same, even if the surgery is a success. There are maybe a dozen or so types of surgical procedures for back pain, and all of them attempt to do one of two things: remove the pressure on the nerve or stabilize the spine. Let's take a herniated disc, for example. You have pain because the disc is pressing on the nerve. Your doctor says that the only thing he can do is remove the part of the disc that's touching the nerve. Your first thought probably is: Good-bye pain! Not so fast. 1. Once...more

The fingernails say much about a persons overall health. Many conditions and diseases can be detected by changes in the nail. The most common health conditions that nails can reveal are nutritional deficiencies. Nutritional deficiencies can often result in fingernail changes or abnormalities as well as injuries, illness or external mistreatment. Nails are composed of keratin (hardened protein) and sulfur and they require optimum nourishment from a well balanced diet. Iron deficiency may be responsible for weak, pale, thin, flat, lengthwise ridging, spoon shaped nails or that peel, chip, crack or break easily. Iron is best absorbed from complete proteins, such as meat, poultry, fish and eggs. Dietary sulfur includes Brussels sprouts, cabbage, dried beans, garlic and onions.To strengthen the nails drink a cup or two of horsetail or oat straw tea and try soaking the fingertips in a bit of the tea for 10 minutes.Nail soaks using warm vegetable or nut oil will help restore flexibility to a brittle, soft or splitting fingernail. Do this at night before bed, wipe off the excess oil with a tissue and do not wash off until morning.When using detergents or household cleaners wear protective...more
