VARIOUS HEALTH BENEFITS OF HORSE-RADISH

Sinusitis is a chronic disease that affects many people. It is effectively a state of infection of the cavities in the skull. Sinusitis causes severe headaches, face pains and can even hinder breathing. German researchers discovered that horseradish can increase the blood flow to the sinuses, decongest them and draining any obstructions that may cause the infection. Eat a teaspoon of horseradish every day until your symptoms are gone.
 Horseradish might be described as having an earthy, robust flavor, accompanied by an oddly sweet heat that warms you to your core. One taste and its intensity radiates not so much in your mouth as in your sinuses.

Horseradish has been reported to have antimicrobial, spasmolytic, cytotoxic, antiseptic, diuretic, stimulant, and antioxidant properties."
Horseradish is also a mild antibiotic, which stimulates urine production, so it's been used to relieve urinary infections. Best of all, long-term use only does your body good, unlike most prescription drugs. Plus, symptoms such as urinary tract and sinus pain are not simply alleviated as they are with pharmaceuticals.

Calcium, potassium, magnesium and phosphorus are some of the most prominent minerals in horseradish. Besides fiber and vitamin C, this seemingly humble root contains volatile oils such as mustard oil, which is an anti-viral that can help you fight infection.
Natural antibacterial agents contain even more cancer-killing compounds, with multiple detoxifying chemical reactions and expressions to the human body to its credit.

But the fragrance of this root is particularly effective against sinus infections because it helps rid your body of mucus in the sinuses, where bacterial infections often start. Stores of this thick substance accumulate deep in the nasal cavities, making it difficult to get rid of.
Some naturalist recommend horseradish preparations just for this purpose. Once your nostrils are introduced to the strong kick of horseradish, the mucus often can't help but begin flowing, which is the signal that the infection is on its way out of your body.

A simple recipe for clearing sinus
 An 8- to 12-inch-long chunk of horseradish root
1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsp. water and Pinch of salt to taste

Stir the ingredients together in a small glass jar, which can be stored in the refrigerator for four to five weeks. Eat one-half to 1 tsp. two to three times a day for as long as it takes for your congestion to begin clearing up.
You can dilute the mixture into one-quarter cup of tomato juice to make it more palatable if desired, but full-strength is best.

New antibiotic gel may cure ear infections in children

A single dose of a bioengineered gel, developed by US researchers, could deliver a full course of antibiotic therapy for a common childhood ear infection, a preclinical study has found. Middle-ear infection, or otitis media, is an ear infection that is usually caused by bacteria or viruses. Common symptoms include ear pain and fever and in some cases, it may also cause drainage of fluid from the ear or hearing loss. Although most ear ifections go away on their own, some require antibiotics.

As high doses of oral antibiotics are needed to get to the ear, side effects like diarrhea, rashes and oral thrush are common. “With oral antibiotics, you have to treat the entire body repeatedly just to get to the middle ear,” said Rong Yang, Ph.D., a chemical engineer at Boston Children’s Hospital in Massachusetts, US. However, “with the gel, a paediatrician can administer the entire antibiotic course all at once, and only where it’s needed,” Yang said.

Squirted into the ear canal, the gel quickly hardens and stays in place, gradually dispensing antibiotics across the eardrum into the middle ear. “Our technology gets things across the eardrum that don’t usually get across in sufficient quantity to be therapeutic,” added Daniel Kohane from Boston Children’s Hospital.

 Previously, the eardrum (also called the tympanic membrane) was an impenetrable barrier, but the bioengineered gel gets drugs past it with the help of chemical permeation enhancers (CPEs). The CPEs insert themselves into the membrane, opening up molecular pores that allow the antibiotics to seep through to the eardrum’s outermost layer.

“Transtympanic delivery of antibiotics to the middle ear has the potential to enable children to benefit from the rapid antibacterial activity of antimicrobial agents without systemic exposure and could reduce emergence of resistant microbes,” noted Stephen Pelton, paediatrician at Boston Medical Center.

The findings, published by the journal Science Translational Medicine, have led to better, easier and potentially safer treatment for middle ear infections, the researchers concluded

What you NEED to know about Shoulder Bursitis!

Bursitis in the shoulder is normally very painful and can have profound effects on work, sports, exercise and sleep. Most treatments involve anti-inflammatory medication, painful steroid injections or even draining fluid with a syringe from the affected area.
The OSMO Patch combined with adequate rest now provides an intelligent and 100% natural way to support the reduction in swelling, inflammation and the associated pain!

Shoulder Bursitis:

To learn more about shoulder bursitis, such as what is shoulder bursitis, the symptoms and causes of shoulder bursitis as well as how the OSMO Patch can be used to help reduce the swelling and associated shoulder pain due to shoulder bursitis, then please continue reading below…
What is Shoulder Bursitis?
Bursitis shoulder pain will sometime be called a rotator cuff injury however this is a general term that also includes shoulder tendonitis pain.
More specifically bursitis in the shoulder is the inflammation of a small fluid filled sac known as a bursa. There are many bursa sacs throughout the body and their role is to act as small lubricated cushions between bones, muscles and other body tissues. This allows low friction and resistance during movement of the joints. There are two main bursa sacs in the shoulder that are responsible for bursitis shoulder pain and they are;
» Subacromial Bursitis
» Subdeltoid Bursitis
Shoulder bursitis pain should not be left untreated as it may become chronic which could then lead to scar tissue formation and further irritation and shoulder pain.

Shoulder Bursitis causes?
Within the complex shoulder joint there is a network of muscles, bones, tendons and other tissues that move together to allow for all the integrate movements of the shoulder. Normally these all move fairly effortlessly thanks to the small bursa sacs within the shoulder joint space that protects them. However the following can cause injury, inflammation and impingement within the shoulder and they would be considered the main causes of shoulder bursitis;
  • A sudden impact
  • Repetitive strain
  • Wear and tear
  • Underlying inflammatory condition (such as osteoarthritis)
What are the symptoms of Shoulder bursitis?
Signs and symptoms of shoulder bursitis can include;
  • Shoulder pain while lying in bed,
  • Pain in the shoulder when raising the arm,
  • Localized swelling and tenderness
  • Severe shoulder pain when lifting heavy objects, and
  • Even shoulder pain at rest.
Shoulder bursitis can be felt as either right shoulder pain or left shoulder pain. As more people are right handed then left it is not unusual to expect right shoulder pain to be more prevalent then left shoulder pain.
A proper diagnosis from a qualified health care professional is also important to rule out other causes of shoulder pain. This may require an X-ray and/or MRI.

What are the options for shoulder bursitis treatment?
Shoulder bursitis may be simply treated with ice, immobilization and rest within the first 24-48 hrs of receiving a shoulder injury or when shoulder pain is first noticed. This will reduce the amount of swelling and help expedite the recovery time. Unfortunately this often is not sufficient to fully resolve shoulder bursitis.
Assuming the doctor has ruled out infection then they will normally recommend shoulder bursitis treatment with either; anti-inflammatory medication, injection with cortisone steroid or aspiration of excess fluid using a syringe (which can be extremely painful).
Unfortunately for many people these treatments for shoulder bursitis will just not be an option. This can possibly be for several reasons… including;
  • Some people may have already tried one or more of these treatments with little to no benefit.
  • Some individuals may not be able suitable for these types of shoulder bursitis treatments due to age or a pre-existing medical condition.
Furthermore, such procedures can be painful and will be seen as invasive by many individuals that are currently suffering from shoulder bursitis pain. Alternatively some people may simply prefer to first investigate what natural bursitis shoulder treatments are available when dealing with their health.
The past decade has seen very little changes or advancements to shoulder bursitis treatments.

Fortunately, the OSMO Patch now offers a new and Intelligent 100% Natural approach!
The OSMO Patch is especially designed to draw fluid from the body and reduce swelling & associated pain in conditions such as Shoulder bursitis. The OMSO Patch in combination with rest is in fact ideal for reducing the swelling and shoulder pain associated with a bursitis in the shoulder.
Simply stick the OSMO Patch over the affected shoulder area prior to going to sleep where they can then go to work removing fluid and stimulating blood flow continually throughout the night while you sleep. Then when you wake up in the morning the used patch is removed and simply discarded.

The OSMO Patch together with adequate rest now provides an effective complementary way to support the relief of inflammation and pain associated with shoulder bursitis. What’s more the OSMO Patches are:
  • 100% natural
  • Drug & steroid Free
  • Non-Invasive & Pain free…
