Hi there here are some benefits for you.\n\n \n\nThe Benefits of Cod Liver Oil\n \n\nBlood flow – may be aided by EPA and DHA, discouraging blood platelets from sticking together.\n\nBlood pressure – EPA and DHA may help reduce this.\n\nCoronary Heart Disease – risk may be reduced if regular intakes are given.  Research has shown that it reduces the likelihood of blood clotting, makes the heart less prone to arrhythmias (irregular heart beats).  It alters the balance of blood fats in a favourable way and reduces the viscosity of blood, thereby faciliting blood flow.\n\nBones and Teeth – require vitamin D to maintain their strength.  Cod Liver Oil is a good source of vitamin D.\n\nVision – Vitamin A is essential for the formation of visual purple (for night vision).\n\nHealthy Skin and Mucous Membranes – CLO is rich in Vitamin A, the large amount present is beneficial for skin and mucous membranes.\n\nPregnancy – Omega 3 fatty acids are important for the brain development of the foetus.\n\nArthritis – Improvements in the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis have been reported in patients taking fish oil supplements.\n\n \n\nProperties\n \n\nCod Liver Oil contains:-\n\nVitamin A, which is essential for the immune system, bone growth, night vision, cellular growth, testicular and ovarian function.\n\nVitamin D, which is essential for the absorption and utilisation of calcium and potassium, which are required for skeletal growth.\n\nEPA and DHA, omega 3 fatty acids, which are converted in the body to produce prostaglandins that affect a wide variety of physiological processes due to their modulating effect on the action of hormones.  It is thought that EPA and DHA may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.  DHA seems essential for normal brain development in unborn babies.\n\n \n\nContra-indications/Precautions\n \n\nCod Live Oil is probably best avoided by pregnant women, asthmatics, diabetics and people taking anti-coagulants, such as Warfarin.\n\nFish oils can cause nausea when taken initially.  It can be lessoned taking them with meals.\n\nHoped this helps.\n\nCraig - Naturopath.

Drinking lots of water that is pureified or spring water is important, also exercise because healthy skin comes from good circulation. For vitamins, Vitamin A & E is great as well as selenium. The amino acids can also be bought as supplments and lysine is particularly good.

Nuts, olives and avocados are the plant foods with the highest fat content.\n\nThey're very nutritious but if you're trying to lose weight, you may want to exclude them from your diet until you are at your goal weight.

Why ask, Lemon juice of course. It is very helpful for cleansing your system and it makes you feel healthy too and start the day positively. How could olive oil help you loose weight. There are healthier fats in it but it is still fat.

hello, the best supplements for skin are: omega 3, flax seed oil and if you can, try to have extra virgin olive oil, it is excellent for the skin as well as for a moisturizer believe it or not. some skin cremes may help, the best ones are CETAPHIL and LUBRIDERM, but use those only if the oils that i mentioned above do not work, but they should..sometimes dry skin has alot to do with the diet or lack of some vitamin or mineral, in order to find this out, you would need to take a test, could be allergies as well...but try the fish oils and flax and olive oil and see how that works out for you...good luck

Every fruit and vegetable has unique properties that contribute to good health, smoker and non-smoker.\n\nThe golden rule is color: the more colors of fruits and vegetables you have, the better the balance of nutrients you are receiving.\n\nWhile I could give you the breakdown of vitamins and minerals for various vegetables and fruits, know this: there are a variety of undiscovered and recently discovered chemicals that contribute to good human health.\n\nBroccolli has received a lot of attention since the discovery of yet-named chemicals. These chemicals provide protection from carcinogens, and helps heal the damage already done by carnicogens. Since cigarette smoke is jam packed with cancer-causing chemicals, broccolli has been identified as a key food to consume.\n\nSpinach, cauliflower, uncooked carrots, peppers, onions and garlic all contribute to good health and good healing.\n\nThey must be fresh, served without corn/vegetable oils, no salad dressing, no butter. No deep frying or smothering your broccolli with cheese.\n\nAlso, you need whole unprocessed grains. These are key to repairing damage done by smoking. Steel cut oats, whole grain breads (not whole wheat breads), wild rice and basmati rice should be part of a post-smoking recovery diet.\n\nEat several servings of each every day. You will feel better and look better.\n\nCongratulations on successfully quitting smoking. Not an easy thing to do, so I think you will have an easy time enjoying all the fresh fruits and vegetables that await you.

Flax is beneficial for two reasons. First of all, it provides fiber which helps keep your bowels and digestive tract clear and helps move toxins out sooner, therefore they're less likely to be absorbed into nearby organs (like your prostate). \n\nSecondly, flax oil is a good anti-oxidant. Anti-oxidants help to fight free radicals, which is what generally causes cancer. Your body can't get flax oil from whole seeds because the shell is too thick to digest. So if it's ground down into meal, you will be able to absorb the oil from it.\n\nHowever, flax meal or oil is probably not going to cure your cancer. You should definitely see a specialist. Also, there are lots of websites online with good information; check for a cancer clinic or the Mayo clinic (don't just trust any "cure" that you read about on any old website).
