Health Benefits of Coconuts - Associated Content Posted: 01 Nov 2010 05:50 PM PDT Coconuts are more than just emergency food on a deserted island or the added kick to your favorite candy bar. Discover their health benefits and learn more about the miracle food you're missing. Unlike traditional sports drinks, coconut water is free of artificial flavors such as high fructose corn syrup, aspartame and food dyes. It is also much higher in electrolytes and provides essential minerals such as potassium and magnesium. It is the perfect drink to reach for to replenish lost fluids after a long, hard workout or illness. Blend one teaspoon of olive oil into your coconut water and drink for three days to flush out intestinal worms. Got kidney stones? This natural "sports drink" will help break them up too! Coconut Flour - Gluten Free Goodness It is estimated that approximately one third of the population is afflicted with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. If you're one of them and you're looking for a wheat free substitute, the healthiest alternative you can reach for is coconut flour. This nutritious flour has as much protein as wheat flour with 30% more dietary fiber. This helps improve digestion and promote weight loss! Coconut Milk - Lactose Free Nutrition If you suffer from lactose intolerance, coconut milk is a healthy substitute. This sweet liquid is made from the "meat" of the coconut and offers health benefits such as boosted immunity, better digestion, weight loss and healthier skin. It is rich in vitamins and minerals and the perfect choice for those following a vegan diet. Coconut Oil - Natural Beauty Care The healing benefits of coconuts also extend to those with skin disorders and unhealthy hair. The lauric, capric and caprylic acids in the oil ease the inflammation of skin disorders such as eczema and psoriasis. Massaging this oil into the scalp helps get rid of head lice, mites and dandruff and can be used as a therapeutic conditioner for damaged or over-processed hair. As you can see, the health benefits of coconuts are many. Pick up some of the many natural products made from this wonderful fruit on your next trip to the market and watch your health soar!

Ecopsychology: The Answer for Mental Health? - Associated Content Posted: 01 Nov 2010 05:50 PM PDT While some people are hopeful that ecopsychology will be the answer for the mentally ill, the criminally insane, and the disturbed soul, others find serious flaws in the core concepts of this mental health system. I Most everyone who did not belong to Israel, practiced paganism which almost always consisted of worshipping "Mother Earth" or some part of nature: the sun, the moon, the stars, fire, and various animals. None of this, however, was a remedy for mental illness, psychological disturbance, violence, unhappiness or confusion about life. Clearly, ecopsychology has failed in history, why would it work now? Can a man really expect to be healed in his mind and spirit by becomming one with the environment or with something in the environment? Will he somehow "connect" with trees and animals around him or a water fall or a mountain that he sees in the distance? Religious worship of "nature" is as close as one can get to reaching what many thought was harmony with "Mother Earth." Nevertheless, this type of pagan worship never succeeded in eliminating violence, mental disturbance, confusion, or unhappiness. Most people who are disturbed in their mind or who allow themselves to harbor evil thoughts do not even seek serenity in nature; serenity equals peace and quiet. They have no peace and some are afraid that their conscious will speak to them if things are quiet. Others are understandably unhappy because of circumstances in their life whether they caused them or not. Some people were born into slavery; some innocent people spent the best years of their life in prison, others lived through war, famine and disease. What answers does ecopsychology have for these souls? When God delivered the children of Israel from slavery in Egypt, he did not do so by telling them to become one with nature, he literally delivered them, and he continues to deliver those who call on him and then obey him. Neither the Bible, nor history can truly support the fundamental teachings of ecopsychology.
