PIP Breast Implant Alert

In Europe, women with breast enlargements are being advised to contact their surgeon amid concerns about the safety of a certain type of implant.

A French inquiry has found that Poly Implant Prostheses – or PIPs – are filled with an unapproved gel and are missing protective barriers. The French company which produced PIPs has gone into administration. All the devices have been recalled in France.

More than 300,000 implants are believed to have been sold globally by PIP over the last 12 years.About 50,000 British women may have these implants. 30,000  French women  were given a potentially defective type of breast implant.

The  UK body for plastic surgeons the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons [BAAPS]  warns against alarm, but said those with PIPs needed a check-up within six months.

“This is certainly an unusual situation but so far there is no serious cause for alarm – whilst further tests are conducted into the substance, we recommend that women who’ve undergone breast augmentation contact their surgeons to find out what type of implant was used,” said its president Nigel Mercer

If an ultrasound establishes that the implant is weakened or ruptured, then both should be removed, BAAPS advised.

PIP used non-medical grade silicone believed to be made for mattresses, according to BAAPS. This meant the low-cost devices were more likely to split – 10% of them did so within the first year – when, on average, implants should last 10 years.

Eight cases of cancer had so far been reported in patients with PIP implants,

UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) said there was “insufficient evidence to indicate any association with cancer” after reviewing the available evidence with the relevant UK professional bodies.

Wellness in Winter – Propolis can Fend Off Those Colds




For many of us in the mid and higher latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere it is winter time. A time when sniffles and snuffles and coughs and colds are prevalent and spread among most communities and workplaces.

And how often do we find that we fight our way through work right up to the Christmas holiday, but as soon as we relax on day one of our break – Zap! A sniffle starts and we get bunged up with a cold? Happy holidays? Fraught misery!

What can we do to protect our good health and deal with a problem the moment it tries to settle upon us?

I really do want to sing the praises of Bee Propolis.Propolis at Work And hopefully the benefits that myself and my family have experienced over several years now may also be your experience too.

Taken modestly and regularly through the winter months propolis seems to build up a resistance in one’s system as it were, and it has proved a strong ‘preventative’ in keeping colds and flu at bay. On occasions when a virulent cold has shown a first sign of attacking, a fulsome and sustained intake of bee propolis has dealt with the attack and knocked it on the head within a day or two.

You can read a first hand account about bee propolis, what it is and what a wonderful result it provided for one particular lady here.

Here’s the small print if you will. As is the case for many natural products, they may not be effective for everyone. [ That of course is equally true of prescription drugs.] Each of us has an individual metabolism and has conditioned, influenced and ‘fine tuned’ our own bodies immune system, digestion, and responses as a result of our lifestyle and medication habits. We are predominantly a product of how we have lived. And we can have individual responses to naturopathic remedies and products.

One size does not necessarily fit all. For a few people, propolis may not have the same result as for the majority or may take longer to take effect.

As a family we are aware of many many individuals for whom propolis is their first port of call as a naturopathic preventative and as a naturopathic treatment in respect of infection. They, like us, regard it as an essential component of their ‘medicine cupboard’.

I commend propolis to you and you may discover further details if you wish from the selling agency we use here.

Stay well!

40% of Cancers are Avoidable

Cancer is  Not Just a Matter of Happenchance

In UK around 130,000 cases  of cancer are diagnosed each year.

The findings of a major extensive and in depth analysis of the causes of cancers have been published in the British Journal of Cancer.

The headline finding is:

Four in every ten of all cancers diagnosed in the UK each year are caused by avoidable life choices including smoking, drinking and eating the wrong things, the study report reveals.

Lead author, Professor Max Parker states “Many people believe cancer is down to fate or is ‘in the genes’ and its luck of the draw whether they get it.”   Prof Parker continues:

“Looking at the evidence it’s clear that around 40% of all cancers are caused by things we mostly have the power to change”

The top related causes  differ between men and women.  Among 150,000 men and among 150,000 women  in UK  cancer diagnoses, the findings showed related causes as follows:

In men:  
In women: 
      Tobacco Smoking  causes  nearly  1 in 4 cancers  [23%]

Lack of fruit and veg consumption causes 1 in 16 cancers  [ 6+%]

Alcohol and obesity  cause  nearly 1 in 11 cancers   [9%]

      Smoking causes nearly 1 in 6 cancers   [15+%]

Obesity  causes  around 1 in 14 cancers   [7 -%]

Sunbeds  cause  about    1 in  27 cancers   [4-%]

Alcohol, Lack of fruit and veg, and Infection  each account for 1 in 30 cancers

So the message is clear :

Take control of your life and take control early by creating healthy habits.

Take action now.       Train  your children.

For men and women : Quit smoking now – it is a carcinogen – it will likely kill 1 in 4 of you before your time.

For men : Eat fruit and vegetables!!   Cut down your alcohol intake.!     Control your weight!

For women: Control your weight!     Limit sunbed use!    Eat fruit and veg!      Beware alcohol abuse!

 

And everyone know too that 1 in 5 stomach cancers are related to excess salt added to or within most  fast foods.

I urge you to change your lives for the better.

Resist saying ‘I’ve heard all this before’.  Resist burying your head in the sand.

Look after yourself and guide your family.

Most western government health departments offer help and advice in making changes.  Charitable organizations also.  They understand that making lasting changes of lifestyle are not always easy.  They exist and are dedicated to help you with practical advice and assistance.

A better life and better life enjoyment starts with admitting you have a problem and deciding to  put  it right.

Courage, my friends.  Seize the moment. Dad! Please stop smoking

Mobility and Living Helps

It is a sad fact that for so many of us as we get older, our mobility deteriorates and our dexterity declines.  There are thankfully a range of everyday ‘helps’ that are now available – from  purpose designed kitchen utensils, for example, that hands struck with arthritis  find easier to use, through   to wheelchairs and scooters.

In its way, each ‘disability aid’ is intended to offer as much continued independence to the individual as possible so that they can for themselves  carry out the everyday activities ,which  perhaps have always been difficult for them or which have been ‘second nature’  to them for the preceding many years.

For readers in United Kingdom, I am happy to have come across  a company specialising in mobility helps, and there is a link to them below.  You will find helps in the following areas:

  • Daily Living Aids
  • Power Chairs
  • Wheelchairs
  • Scooters – with free delivery and 3 months insurance
  • Bariatry
  • Therapetic Aids
  • Kitchen, Bathroom and WC  Aids
  • Chairs and Beds
  • Stairlifts

…and more.

In short if you are facing a mobility or dexterity ‘issue’,  I feel that here is a company definitely worth visiting.

British Mobility
Please know that should you take a look at their extensive range and make a purchase through this link, I would receive a referral commission which helps offset website costs. Thank you.

Weightloss – Beat Wintertime Weight Gain

Winter weight gain is a common complaint – so I’ve discovered – of many people, not just me!

It seems that every winter lots of us add a few pounds, and come spring those pounds don’t  naturally fall off again – they hang around – literally!   And so we get a little heavier every year.

Those extra pounds  just seem to ‘suddenly appear’. And they can be really tough to get rid of.  Losing weight is not easy. At least, it’s always  like that for me.  I find it ‘hard work’ to get shot of those extra pounds weight!  And it’s easier to stay ahead of the problem if you can;  certainly start taking ‘remedial’ measures before the situation gets really out of hand.

Unwanted weight increase if left unaddressed will affect and change your whole personality and social life as well as your health.

Anyway – enough of the ‘lecture’!   My call to you is ‘Take action!’
