Erection Failure Is a Disaster! But, there are some natural ways to help prevent this conversation, and perhaps might allow a guy to use those handy blue Viagra Pills only as backup.  A recent study suggests that pomegranate juice might be a healthy way to improve erectile dysfunction. The purple-reddish colored fruit has more anti-oxidants than red wine, green tea or blueberries, and is thought to have excellent anti-aging properties, with benefits for everything from wrinkle- free glowing skin to better heart and circulatory health. Nearly half of  men (47%) who drank a glass of pomegranate juice a day reported they got better erections and had better sex.  Drinking concentrated POM liquid decreases a chemical reactant in the blood called carbonyl malondi...

She was 85. She suffered from emphysema and arthritis in her last years, but she kept up her sense of humor that we all loved. Auntie Joanie loved birds and nature and knew how to choose wild mushrooms that were edible. She also loved to pick blueberries. When I was growing up in a northern Ontario mining town, Auntie Joanie, my sister and I would pick baskets and baskets of blueberries. My mother would bake them into spectacular blueberry pies, but mom never came with us to pick blueberries, only Auntie Joanie. She was my mother’s older sister, but my mother has 3 other older sisters; Auntie Anne who is 89 and Auntie Jeanette who is 87 and Auntie Dorcean who is 82. There are three brothers too, all in their 70’s.  I certainly hope I have the lo...

My hubby made blueberry buckwheat pancakes for breakfast this morning.  He’s the pancake specialist in our family.  His pancake breakfasts are always a hit. Blueberry memories go back to my childhood, when Mother took us children berry picking on Blueberry Hill.  We paid the owner of the property and picked our pails full of these tasty morsels.  Then brought them home to eat with milk and sugar, in pie, on cereal, as blueberry dumplings, and blueberry cake.

In a household I know of that contains a cancer survivor, the family gets together one time a week to have dinner around the dinner table. Sounds typical, right?The only difference here is that everyone must eat several pieces of fresh fruit for dinner. No vegetables (those come on a different night) and no drinks besides water. Just fruit.Amazingly, the kids in this family acclimated to the one-fruit-night pretty fast, and now they actually enjoy it. I thought it was a rather unique way to express the importance of fresh fruits on one's diet. After all, many believe that blueberries are one of the most potent anti-cancer foods there is. Why not get in the habit of ...

These delicious and plump berries are one of the most potent antioxidants known, and a decent side effect of eating them is something many naturopaths have known for quite some time: blueberries are excellent anti-cancer food.Cancer can be a combination of genetic predisposition combined with the results of countless lifestyle choices, which explains why some smokers never develop lung cancer while non-smokers develop it in their teens. One side is a result of the cards you're dealt; the other, as a result of choices.This sounds simplified, but taking out the lifestyle choices by beating it with excellent nutrition as much as possible can't be a bad thing for alm...

More specifically, what do your salads look like? If you say green, you might not be getting all the health benefits you can. Colours -- deep reds, yellows, purples, oranges -- are full of important nutrients that you might not be getting from plain old lettuce. One colour is especially good for you: berry red. Full of antioxidants, vitamins and oh-so-tasty, berries can be a great addition to salads, main dishes and pretty much anything else. Thought I like them on their own. My other favourite coloured produce includes bell peppers, eggplant, carrots, mangos and watermelon.

The researchers note that consuming fiber may help with the body's ability to handle blood sugar. The pooled results of several studies showed that people who ate the most cereal fiber had a 33% lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes than those who ate the least. A study conducted at Harvard confirmed foods including whole grain breads, high-fiber cereals, yogurt, beans and peanut butter lessened the probability of developing diabetes by 28%.
