Lots of people swear by the salt crystal's healing capability, laying claim of relief from the common cold, the curing of skin problems, mental health disorders, respiratory illness, headaches, migraines and much more. These original salt lamps are the most exquisite and naturally pure lights now made. A heated salt crystal lamp will attract water molecules from the air, forming a NaCl and H20 solution. Sodium is a positive ion, and Chloride, a negative ion. Hydrogen has a two part negative charge and Oxygen is a positively charged ion. These ions create a reaction of two positive ions and three negative ions. After canceling each other out, one lone negative ion is produced. This negative ion seeks out the first positive ion like a dust, or bacteria particle and zaps it. This is the process of positive ion reduction and is how our Himalayan Salt Lamps work.

Apple juice for Asthma
By Anne Harding
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) -
Drinking apple juice from concentrate daily may help ward off asthma symptoms in children, a study from the UK hints.
In a previous study, Dr. Seif O. Shaheen of the National Heart and Lung Institute at Imperial College London and colleagues found that eating apples seemed to protect adults from developing asthma symptoms. A number of other studies have linked higher fruit consumption to better lung function.
It's possible that the antioxidants contained in fruit counteract harmful oxidative stress due to pollution and ease inflammation, thus reducing asthma symptoms, Shaheen explained. And the antioxidant content of apples is particularly high, the researcher added.
Shaheen's team analyzed fruit intake and asthma symptoms in 2,640 children aged 5 to 10 years.
While there was no association between asthma symptoms and apples, children who drank apple juice from concentrate at least once a day were at 47 percent lower risk of wheezing than children who drank apple juice less than once a month. "That's a bit of a puzzle," Shaheen said, adding that it is possible that juice might have a higher antioxidant concentration than fruit.
Shaheen urges caution in interpreting the study results. "It would be wrong to say that our data suggest that drinking apple juice reduces the risk of asthma," the researcher said in an interview. "We've only shown an association, and we've yet to provide definitive evidence that the link is causal."
The study also found that children who ate bananas at least once daily, compared to those who ate them less than once a month, were also at significantly lower risk of wheezing. But given that the fruit have never been associated with asthma symptoms previously, Shaheen said, this finding is "less convincing."
The investigators followed up with the same group of children a year later and are currently analyzing the results. If the association persists, Shaheen said, the next step would be to conduct a clinical trial of the effect of apple juice consumption on asthma symptoms.

Salt pipes
Salt pipes are quite popular in Europe, and can be used by anyone anywhere. Salt pipes are new to the market place and have just been patented. However salt pipes are unproven and although we have excellent (and safe) inhalers available for asthma sufferes, do keep using your regular inhalers.It has been reported by some some users that after a few months of Salt Pipe use they were able to stop the use of inhalers.
It involves you inhaling very small amounts of salt and is based on the fact that 18th century Polish salt mine workers didn’t fall ill with respiratory disease. Unfortunately, such observations don’t represent a clinical trial, but the salt used does contain concentrated mineral extract of halite. Very tiny amounts of halite salt will be inhaled each day and this apparently helps the respiratory system substantially. There have been no adverse reactions reported and in some ways, if the manufacturers are to be believed and only tiny amounts of salt actually get into the lungs, then it should be a very safe thing to use.

Some thing very sad
I'm going to start today with something very sad, but very important. A 4-year old British girl was abducted from her bedroom while on vacation in Portugal with her parents. The details are all over the news, so I'm not going to go into them more here. Suffice it to say that after nearly two weeks she has not been found and there appear to be few clues as to what happened to her. As a parent I can't begin to imagine what little Madeleine's family are going through. There seems to be a good possibility that she was abducted to order and may have had her appearance changed. She could, by now, be almost anywhere in the world. Little Madeleine has one very distinctive feature that is extremely rare, and would be very difficult to disguise. She has what is known as a 'flash' in her right eye - the black part of her pupil extends out into the color of her iris. You can read more about the story and see a picture of Madeleine at the BBC news site here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6652611.stm Whoever has Madeleine can change her hair length and color and do other things to disguise her, but they can't change that very rare flash in her eye. So if you see a child with such a distinctive marking, please don't hesitate. Contact your local police immediately. Better to risk a few false alarms if they might help reunite Madeleine with her family.

What Natural healing is not:
Natural healing is in no way connected to religion nor does it run counter to any religious beliefs. Instead it is concerned with promoting good health and wellness as well as healing.
