Here is some general info about Acupressure, where you can learn more about what Acupresure can do, how you can use it, what ailments does it cure. Acupressure is an ancient healing art that uses the fingers to press key points on the surface of the skin to stimulate the body's natural self-curative abilities. When these points are pressed, they release muscular tension and promote the circulation of blood and the body's life force to aid healing. Acupuncture and acupressure use the same points, but acupuncture employs needles, while acupressure uses the gentle but firm pressure of hands (and even feet).

Scientists have found the connection between  hormones produced during periods of stress and cancer may be serious. The study showed that an increase in norepinephrine, a stress hormone, can stimulate tumor cells. The research also suggests the same hormone can also stimulate the tumor cells to release another compound that can aid in the growth of new blood vessels that feed cancer cells, hastening the growth and spread of the disease. The work was reported in the latest issue of the journal Cancer Research. Read more in the following article:

Traumas from childhood may be associated with the development of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). The research shows that CFS and similar illnesses may result from the brain's inability to cope with challenging experiences. Chronic fatigue syndrome affects between 400,000 and 900,000 U.S. adults. The condition is defined as unexplained fatigue that lasts for at least six months, does not get better with rest and interferes with daily activities. For a formal diagnosis of CFS, fatigue must be accompanied by at least four of eight additional symptoms, including extreme fatigue after exertion, difficulties with memory and concentration, unrefreshing sleep, headaches, muscle pain, joint pain, sore throat and tender lymph nodes.Read more in the following article.....

In a 20-year study among  82,000 women, the incidence of coronary heart disease was roughly equal for women who ate low- and high-carbohydrate diets. Heart risk was also 30 percent lower for women who did got their protein and fat from vegetables they noted. The women were having the Atkins diet, that allows for unlimited intake of animal fat. 82,802 women were statistically followed for 20 years, looking especially at the incidence of coronary heart disease.
