In August, Whole Foods CEO John Mackey argued in the pages of the Wall Street Journal that the solution to America’s health care crisis was to be found in “less government control and more individual empowerment.”

His own company’s unique health care plan, Mackey wrote, covers 90 percent of employees, costs less than health insurance plans, aned provides a “very high degree of worker satisfaction.”

But for the sin of not supporting a government take over of health care, labor unions and left-wing activists called for a boycott of Whole Foods, claiming that Mackey’s solutions were unworkable and his employees were unhappy.

Reason.tv talked to protesters, Mackey, and employees about “the Whole Foods alternative to ObamaCare.”

When the side effects of the medication she was given to correct her heart problems proved debilitating, Jill Christensen of Minneapolis looked for alternatives. When a friend told her about qigong master Chunyi Lin and his Spring Forest Qigong, Jill thought it couldn’t possibly help but she was desperate enough to try anything. She never expected it would change her life. “The funny heart beats were gone within 2 days of the first session. By the time I had my nuclear stress test, my heart was in perfect condition (no more hypertrophy), and I no longer needed blood pressure medication.
After subsequent sessions with Chunyi, I have lost all desire to emotionally eat and have lost 30 pounds, I made it through hay fever season without any allergy medication, my achy knees and hip don’t give me any problems anymore, and I am on an incredible journey of discovering me. I am learning to trust again, I have faith again, I am able to be still in stressful situations and maintain some perspective, and I am overall just much better at being ME!” — Jill Christensen

BMI, or Body Mass Index, is the best way to make up ones mind what is the idealised weight for you. This standard takes into account your height and weight.

However, dont initiate a crash diet, as this can create further troubles for your body. Reduce your weight slowly through eating a reasonable diet and doing some form of exercise. Exercise will help you transfer unwanted pounds and will also plays a undeniable role in reducing high blood pressure.

Insomnia cure can be permanent. Insomnia is caused by imbalance of the 5 organs system. Insomnia is a sleep disorder that is characterized difficulty in falling and/or staying asleep. Insomnia is connected with the heart, kidneys, liver, lungs and spleen disharmony particularly with the heart, which houses the shen, or spirit. The TCM view is that the spirit cannot rest (over active), because there is heat in the heart, just like a car when the engine vibrates too much the mechanic has to tune it. The key is to use herbs to bring the organs into working harmony or in simple term to tune the engine

High blood pressure or hypertension means high pressure (tension) in the arteries. The arteries carry blood from the heart to all of the tissues and organs of the body. Normal blood pressure is 120/80 and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is considered high blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure, the former number, represents the pressure in the arteries as the heart contracts and pumps blood into the arteries. The diastolic pressure, the latter number, represents the pressure in the arteries as the heart relaxes after the contraction.

An elevation of the systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure increases the risk of developing heart or kidney disease, hardening of the arteries, eye damage and stroke. Therefore it is important that hypertension be treated as soon as possible because it is a silent killer..

In TCM it is caused by weakness in the liver, irregularity in the blood and blockage in the blood arteries. Hypertension can be effectively control or treated. It has to be treated holistically. Do not just take drug to dilate your arteries and temporarily bring down the pressure. This is call masking or bluffing your body.
