"Monkeys, and generally all wild animals, have more or less clear levels of "hyperopia," as it would be defined concerning this "convention." We could develop the visual acuity over 20/20 with PVS. If man had stayed wild, without being constantly exposed to the state of overaccommodation due to narrow places (indoors), probably 21/20 or even more would have been considered as normal visual acuity. The way to run so as to overcome 20/20 is the same one that the myope must run to recover from his refractive error. The exercises are the same: muscular training and retinal defocus." - David De Angelis, The Secret of Perfect Vision: How You Can Prevent and Reverse Nearsightedness (Get the book.)

"There are wild yam (Dioscorea) and soy-based progesterone creams available over the counter in many health food stores, which do not require a prescription. wild yam has a mild progesterone effect, but it does not raise your body's own progesterone level. This may be fine for young women with mild PMS symptoms, but for most of us older per-imenopausal women it won't be strong enough. Most over-the-counter creams have only very small amounts of progesterone (10 to 20 mg per tsp), and many may not have any progesterone at all." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)

"When primitive man consumed brain tissue from wild animals, he got generous amounts of DHA. Of course, the contamination of today's domesticated animal stocks with mad cow disease and other maladies has eliminated the option of eating animal brain and nervous tissue as sources of DHA. But wild game, organic beef, and grass-and pasture-fed animals have meats with more omega-3 fat than other meats available today. Many vegetarians supplement DHA produced from microalgae. The FDA recently approved a commercially available omega-3 fatty acid supplement (Lovaza, Reliant Pharmaceuticals, Inc." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.)

"Tansy is another herb used for heart palpitations, and it can be ingested as a tea. wild yam enhances the body's production of DHEA, and DHEA is crucial in helping to prevent heart attacks. Arjuna is an Ayurvedic herb that enhances circulation and lowers blood pressure. Indian snakeroot also has anti-hypertensive qualities. Black cohosh, an American herb, helps lower blood pressure. We've said this before, but let's restate the warnings: It is not at all advisable to take all these substances at the same time.

"He spent two years in private industry with Roedler, a pharmaceutical manufacturer of homeopathic remedies, one of the few organisations to entertain his wild theories. Nevertheless, Popp, a stubborn autocrat in his own labs, was equally stubborn in persisting with his work, convinced of its validity. Eventually, he gained a patron in Professor Walter Nagl of the University of Kaiserslautern, who asked Popp to work with him. Once again, Popp's research caused a revolt among the faculty, who demanded his resignation on the grounds that his work was sullying the university's reputation." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.)

"Thus autistic children have a hyperimmune response to measles virus, which in the absence of a wild type of measles infection might be a sign of an abnormal immune reaction to the vaccine strain or virus reactivation.

"Such a system gives primacy to the idea that disease is some wild and hairy monster that can be locked up with diagnosis." The dialogue between the patient with soos and the diagnostician will focus on particulars of the syndrome. As a reflection of the patient's proclivities to focus, or more likely the diagnostician's preconceptions, an element or two will emerge that seem more significant. The fatigue, or the tenderness and achiness, or the headache, or the diarrhea becomes the most telling symptom." - Nortin M.

"I find I easily complete tasks and am on a wild uncluttering spree. I do image consulting today. My children are slowly adopting my lifestyle. ATHENA I could not connect with people. I felt distant. I was dissatisfied with my job. Depression was exhausting. I could not handle more physical and emotional trauma. I entered a support group, "just in case I will learn something." I learned the theory behind detoxifying the body and mind. After a short time juicing, eating vegan, and eliminating food allergies, my energy picked up. I no longer have PMS symptoms nor do I feel cysts in my breast." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"This turned out to be a wild goose chase, as all such simplistic single agent studies will be, because Epstein Barr is widely distributed in the normal population by about age eight. Eighty-five to 90 percent of the population has caught Epstein Barr and recovered and therefore it could not be the causative agent or else why wouldn't everybody being coming down with the syndrome? Human Herpes Virus 6 fell upon a similar fate. It is widely distributed in the normal population and therefore could not be the distinguishing virus." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"If osteoporosis is a condition of osteoclasts gone wild, why are they going wild? What is the real cause of the problem? 3. Is it a good idea to kill osteoclasts, since they are a normal part of healthy bone function? What if a person needs them for something, like healing a broken bone? 4.

"Population densities even in the most favorable areas were sufficiently low to allow for a degree of mobility, while stands of wild plant foods had not yet been overexploited. For many centuries, most groups lived in foggy zones close to the Pacific, where such foods were to be found. By 2000 B.C., many had moved. They still gath- ered plant foods but also relied on domesticated plants such as squashes and beans grown on river valley floors. Today we take cotton for granted." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"And so passed one of the hours I spent at the wild wood Sanitarium and Hospital in Wildwood, Georgia. As you may have gathered, Wildwood is not exactly your average hospital. To be truthful, I knew it was unusual before I went down there, but the place popped at least a dozen good surprises on me in less than two days.

"Eighty percent of the time eat foods that you know are going to nourish your body: fresh fruit, veggies, lean proteins, wild fish, raw nuts, seeds, yogurt, and salads.

"They can go wild naturally during stressful periods or as a result of your age and condition (think puberty, pregnancy, menopause, et cetera), or they can become imbalanced under the influence of toxins that mess with the body's innate hormonal machinery, much like a drunk driver who can't operate a car. First, toxins tend to accumulate in endocrine glands and in fatty tissues (e.g., breasts). Second, when the liver is loaded down with too many toxins, it can begin to clear them less efficiently from the body, especially excess estrogen." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.)

"On occasion there may also be some vegetable: pipidn or ayote (Cucurbita moschata) or calabaza (Lagenaria), cabbage, the flower of pinuela (Bromelia pinguin) or some other wild product. Meat sometimes appears on even the poorest table, and there is usually cuajada, a milk curd. Tortillas come with this meal and afterward the men sip heavily sweetened black coffee, made from local berries or from the mashed seeds of nanju (Hibiscus esculentus). The evening meal is simpler, since the custom is to spend the afternoon in idleness, and appetites are less hearty." - Dan Buettner, The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest (Get the book.)

And according to him, their influence was still alive. "You see it over and over again; these people have Chorotega ancestry," he said, making a characteristic chopping motion with his hand. "These people are eating the same food and living with relatively little stress. But of course, we need to do more study. . . ." - Dan Buettner, The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest (Get the book.)
