INSTANT SOUPS ARE LINKED TO CANCER
It is sad to see how the men and women of tomorrow (our children) are being poisoned by the food that busy moms resort to feeding them. Instant soups such as Cup a Noodle can seem like the perfect solution to working mothers who are short on time or can't cook. After all, they're easy to make (even a kid can make them), they're quick and above all, they're cheap.
Unfortunately, for less than 50 cents what you are buying for your family is cancer.
The main ingredient in almost all instant soups is a chemical known as MSG, or Mono Sodium Glutamate. This chemical is added for flavor and not only is it linked with cancer but causes migraines and is reportedly more addictive than nicotine.
As if that wasn't bad enough, the noodles in these types of soup are responsible for appendicitis in thousands of children every year and the Styrofoam cup they come in contains other toxic chemicals that are known to cause cancer and Alzheimer's.
But that's not all; MSG is found in almost any food that has been processed, especially fast foods. Chips, fries, ground beef, hotdogs, canned soup and food seasonings are the worst when it comes to MSG and contain large quantities of it.
The only solution for someone who truly wants to stay healthy and away from migraines is to stop eating foods that contain MSG amongst the ingredients and to stop buying food with MSG for your kids.
In a nutshell, when you eat an instant soup you are consuming the same amount of calories as a complete meal, two teaspoons of salt, lots of saturated fat and a cup full of cancer!

Nasal Polyps
By: Yulia Berry | 08/11/2009Doctors do not know with absolute certainty what causes nasal polyps to form, but most tend to agree that chronic inflammation in the nasal cavity is what spurs these growths to form resulting in sinus passage blocking and infections. Unlike a tumor, a polyp is not a separate growth, and consists of the same type of tissue as its surrounding area.
Rectal Polyps
By: Yulia Berry | 08/11/2009A Rectal Polyp is a mass of tissue that breaks through the mucous membrane of the colon or rectum and then juts outs into the digestive tract.

Poor Posture Leads Lower Back Pain, But Pilates Helps
By: Tuula Niskanen | 08/11/2009Poor posture is a major factor in back problems. It strains muscles, puts too much stress on the spine, and over time can change the anatomical structure of the spine leading to degeneration to the bone, joint and discs; spinal nerves may also be affected. All these factors have the potential to contribute a lower back pain, which is why establishing correct posture is so important. An appropriate posture lends stability and strength to the spine. You can improve all these aspects with Pilates.
