If you're having problems with breaking, splitting, weak nails, you may want to supplement your diet with a B-complex vitamin and zinc sulfate, along with garlic, raw and/or supplements. In addition, drink at least 2 extra glasses of bottled or filtered water daily for 30 days. Avoid tap water.
The following treatment will strengthen fingernails and can solve problem nails if it’s used in addition to a well-balanced diet or the above supplements and extra water.
Soak your fingers for 10 minutes in any one of these oils:
Warm olive oil
Warm sesame-seed oil
Warm wheat germ oil
Before you wipe off the oil, give your nails a mini-massage from top to bottom. Continue daily for 3-4 days. Repeat this again two weeks later. You will soon notice visible improvement and stronger nails less likely to split or break.

Highly Effective Natural Treatments for High Blood Pressure
In most cases of mildly elevated blood pressure, doctors will recommend dietary and lifestyle modification for a period of time to see if this normalizes blood pressure. It is important to work with your primary care provider. Untreated high blood pressure can damage many organs in the body and increases the risk for stroke, brain hemorrhage, heart attack, and kidney failure at an early age.
Diet
Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium – Adequate intake of these minerals is necessary for blood pressure control. When the diet lacks these minerals, supplementation may improve blood pressure control. Potassium-rich foods include avocados, bananas, cantaloupe, honeydew melon, grapefruit, nectarines, oranges, asparagus, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, green peas, potatoes, and squash. Foods rich in magnesium include nuts, rice, bananas, potatoes, wheat germ, kidney and lima beans, soy, and molasses.
Herbs and Nutritional Supplements
Garlic – There have been a number of studies examining the effects of garlic supplements on blood pressure. Garlic appears to lower blood pressure by 5 to 10%. It can also lower cholesterol, reduce triglyceride levels, discourage clot formation, and promote blood circulation.
Hawthorne Berry- Hawthorne Berry helps to offset the increased demands made on the heart for those who are overweight. It also helps recondition and tone-up the heart muscle while reducing body weight.
Hibiscus Flower- The use of hibiscus for the treatment of hypertension has a long traditional history in a clinical trial those consuming hibiscus showed an 11.2% lowering of the systolic blood pressure and a 10.7% decrease in diastolic pressure 12 days after beginning the treatment.

Is Vitamin D the "Nutrient of the Decade?"
Vitamin D, also known as the “sunshine vitamin,” has been associated with so many health benefits that it may become the “nutrient of the decade.”
While federal officials have resisted increasing the daily recommended level of vitamin D out of fears of overdose toxicity, increasing evidence suggests that the currently recommended intake levels are not adequate to prevent the serious diseases linked to low vitamin D levels.
Vitamin D has been found to;
Strengthen bones
Reduce tumor growth
Lower your risk of cancer
Reduce your risk of multiple sclerosis
Lower your risk of diabetes
Through most of human history, sunlight was the primary source of vitamin D. Based on how much time you spend in the sun, you may also need additional sources, such as from foods (vitamin D is found in oily fish like salmon, mackerel, bluefish, catfish, sardines and tuna) or vitamin D3 supplements.
Editors note: As we have long suggested sun is not your enemy. Moderate exposure to sun is essential to good health. Fear sells products including the chemicals in the SPF’s we freely rub into our skins. If you are concerned about sunburn or overexposure try are Tanamins. Twenty minutes twice per week gives you the vitamin D your body needs and a great tan without risk of sunburn.
