PMS and Menopause

Serotonin and Autoimmunity - Are You Low on This "Happy" Brain Chemical?
Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Multiple Sclerosis, Chronic Epstein-Barr, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and Chronic Lyme are often associated with low serotonin levels. Serotonin helps regulate sleep, appetite, and mood. Depression and anxiety are often caused by a serotonin deficiency and popular antidepressant drugs are prescribed for the purpose of increasing serotonin levels in the body. The amino acid 5-HTP, which can be taken in supplement form, improves your body's ability to manufacture serotonin. However, if you eat carbohydrate-rich meals or snacks at night, which causes your blood sugar to rise and then drop while you are sleeping, the 5-HTP will not be effective. In contrast, eating...
Living in Fear
"> "Which is more of a threat to your health: Al Qaeda or the Department of Homeland Security?" was the provocative lead in question to a recent article entitled Living in Fear and Paying a High Cost in Heart Risk. The article states that the answer is not as clear cut as you might think. A study published in the Archives of General Psychiatry, which tracked the health of a representative study of more than 2,700 Americans before 9/11, began monitoring people's fears of terrorism for several years post the attack and found that the most fearful people were found to be 3 to 5 times more likely to receive diagnoses of new cardiovascular ailments. I recalled that during the period of this study that...
Bulimia and the Brain
Bulimia and the brain was the topic of a report released in January 2008 by General Psychiatry. The report focused on female patients with bulimia nervosa and their lack of impulse control compared to women without an eating disorder. The use of MRI brain scan showed distinct behavioral differences when faced with decisions about voluntary behavior. Bulimia nervosa plagues adolescent females and continues into adulthood. Most professionals agree that binge eating is triggered by a sense of loss of control. The act of binge eating and then subsequent voiding of food gives the sufferer a feeling of regaining that control. During testing the MRI was able to observe the function of electrical currents...

The Shocking Truth Behind What Causes Of Autism
Autism is a disorder that caused extreme behavior changes in an individual, causing him to exhibit abnormal mannerisms, changing his whole personality and inhibiting his social life. While the symptoms are many and cover a huge range, what at are the actual causes of autism? Autism is an extremely overwhelming condition, showing itself up in different ways in different cases, sometimes getting difficult or even impossible to treat, frustrating the doctors, patients and his family alike. The whole problem with this medical condition is that it does not stem out of any one definite, identifiable cause. The disorder could be arising from abnormalities and/or deformities in several areas of the human...
Children With Bipolar Disorder - Important and Helpful Projections and Causes That Many Don't Know
At one time, it was believed that only adults suffered from bipolar disorder. The general consensus at the time was that the condition was set off sometime in the teenage and adolescent years and gradually worsened if left untreated as the kid grew into an adult. Interestingly, to counter this view, recent years have seen more and more children diagnosed with the condition. Some scientists, researchers, and psychiatrists believe that this is due, in some ways, to improved diagnostic methods, processes and means, while others think it is a stark reality of how many more people really are suffering from the disorder, suggesting some unseen environmental trigger that has spiked the rise. Whichever of...
One of the criticisms of utilizing medications or drugs in helping a child cope with the ADHD symptoms is that the disorder might be caused by environmental factors, including parenting styles. But in the last decade, ADHD or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder has already been established as a medical disorder. One well-known method of coping with the symptoms is to cause chemical interaction with two neurotransmitters, dopamine and norepinephrine. This is why the majority of ADHD medications are stimulants, such as amphetamines, dextroamphetamines, methylphenidate, pemoline, and dexmethylphenidate. Still, many parents, health professionals, and the general public are dubious of the...
Panic Attacks May Be More Dangerous For Women - Texas Universities Could Find Answers
Suffering a panic attack may increase a woman's risk of heart attack and stroke by as much as three hundred percent. Previous studies have linked depression with heart disease and other medical conditions, according to the University of Texas Medical Branch, but a recent analysis published in the Archives of General Psychiatry is one of the first to independently link anxiety-related disorders with cardiovascular problems. Dr. Jordan Smoller of Boston's Massachusetts General Hospital, and colleagues, followed more than 3,000 women aged fifty-one to eighty-three for five years. In that time, 330 reported having a full-blown panic attack, and four percent experienced either a heart attack -- otherwise...
Shedding Some Light on Chronic Anxiety Disorder
Maybe you've heard the term chronic anxiety disorder and you want to know exactly what this term means. It sounds pretty ominous-but like lots of difficulties we face in life, there are answers. First, let's try and define chronic anxiety disorder. An anxiety disorder is an irrational concern or dread of a particular situation, place or circumstance. Anxiety, in and of itself, is not bad. Our bodies are designed to recognize times when we should be concerned about our safety, or the safety of others, and so we are given warning signs that we need to be careful and protect ourselves from the perceived harm. However, when the anxiety becomes irrational and excessive it usually evolves into what is...
Is Alternative Medicine Proven to Work?
The most common objection to alternative medicine from conventional physicians is that it is "not proven." What doctors mean by this is that alternative medicine has not been rigorously tested the way pharmaceutical drugs have been. A rigorous test according to a Western medical doctor means that the medicine must have gone through one or (preferrably) more randomized, double blind clinical trials. This is considered the gold standard of Western medicine. Doing a clinical trial like this is expensive. You need highly qualified researchers, a good research methodology, a bunch of patients to test, and a long period of time to observe results. But the doctors are wrong. Alternative medicine has been...

For severe cases of schizophrenia, it may mean a lifetime on anti-psychotic drugs like Clozapine, Zyprexa, Olanzapine or...
Deep Sleep Disorder and Bedwetting
I work with the Enuresis Treatment Center, which deals only with bedwetting cases. We have treated thousands of children, teenagers, and adult. Bedwetting is a problem caused by abnormally deep sleep, which doesn't allow for the bedwetter's brain and bladder to connect so they can effectively respond to each other. In 99% of all bedwetting cases, (based upon our research of tens of thousands of documented cases) the root cause is sleeping so deeply. It is an inherited deep-sleep disorder that results in bedwetting as well as a non-restorative, unhealthy sleep. This compromised sleep can also result in daytime symptoms; difficulty awakening, fatigue, memory difficulty, irritability, difficulty...
How Do You Handle a Bad Relationship?
I know that marriage takes a lot of work and give and take but when one is the only one doing the give and take then harsh feelings come into play. These hard feelings can lead to undoing of a good marriage. It not only leads to altered feelings but can also lead to a divorce between the two. It is not fair to have a one-sided marriage. By this I mean, having one person doing all the giving and the other doing all the taking. The one giving gets tired of being on the end of giving all the attention. While the other one receiving, is putting the other one down and them doing the best they know how. Without support, projects seem to fail. I have a small business of jewelry design and producing unique...

Disordered Eating: Treatment and Nutritional Strategies
The Female Athlete Paradox There is indeed a paradox when it comes to female athletes and energy intake. On the one hand, they may need to consume a high calorie diet because of their extreme training intensity. On the other hand, they may feel that they are eating too much compared to non-athletes, they may develop self-imposed weight restrictions, and coaches may propose team-imposed weight limits. These factors can influence behaviors to the point where an athlete can develop disordered eating patterns. Lori Gross describes disordered eating and its relationship to The Female Athlete Triad. In this article, I presents treatment and nutritional strategies for eating disorders. Treatment The...

Five Reasons One Partner Gives Up on the Marriage
1. They have met someone else (distraction). Their emotional energy is flowing toward another person. This is particularly true when a husband quits trying in a marriage.
