Smart Health And Wellbeing Program

The National Science Foundation, often known as NSF, is an independent agency of the United States federal government that is drastically in charge of financing research and education activities in all the non-medical fields of science and engineering.

The work of the NSF will always be carefully guided by their overall agency mission, which is to “To promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; and to secure the national defense.”

Medical supplies, they are needed in every home. There are a few medical supplies which are way too important at times but finding them at nearby stores is difficult.

Lavender Essential Oil: The Top Ten List of Healing Uses

I’ve waited long enough! If David Letterman isn’t going to do a Top Ten List of healing uses for lavender essential oil, then I suppose it’s up to me. But first, a few quick things to know before use.

The genus Lavandula comes from the Latin word lavare meaning “to wash,” and L. angustifolia, known as true or common lavender, is the species used medicinally. Lavender essential oil is steam-distilled from fresh flowers and is mainly produced in Bulgaria and France. Be sure to use a reputable supplier when purchasing lavender essential oil as it is one of the most commonly adulterated essential oils. A genuine and authentic essential oil should always list the botanical name, the part of the plant used, the country of origin and the method of extraction. The synthetic scent of lavender from fragrance oil is not the same as a pure essential oil – there are no health benefits from synthetic fragrance oils!

Tips for Using Aromatherapy for Natural Stress Relief

Among the many natural stress remedies I recommend, aromatherapy has got to be one of the easiest and most pleasant to use. It’s all about using essential oils extracted from flowers, bark, stems, leaves, roots and other plant parts for improved mental and physical health. These essential oils can be absorbed through the skin although I suggest inhaling their aromas to promote quick mood enhancement and natural stress relief.

Many studies have shown that aromatherapy may bring relief to those suffering from stress. Let me explain how in simple laymen terms. When you inhale essential oils, their scent links directly with the limbic system in the brain through the olfactory nerve. This triggers the production and release of neurotransmitters that relax the central nervous system and reduce stress.

Solutions For ADHD Are Much Easier Than You Think

Did you know that the medication solutions for ADHD are in the high risk category? I say that because these medications carry the black box warning and that is only used for about 10% of all the allopathic medicines out there. That is pretty alarming by any standards.

The latest solutions for ADHD as recommended by the AAP do nothing to reassure us either. They are not exactly recommending that all children be put on these meds but they have lengthened the age range. Now that is a contradiction, if ever there was one! They now say that the age range should be from four years of age to eighteen.
