Almost every day we had to go outside and chase down one resident or another and gently lead them back inside with the other ghostly pale inmates.  Little did I know I was exacerbating their condition!

I noticed one interesting thing recently.  My skin is really nice (low glycemic, lots of healthy fats and oils) except in one place.  That is the place that I keep underwater, out of view at the outdoor hot springs baths.&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=90291" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: A Sunny Treatment for Alzheimer's</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/02/27/A-Sunny-Treatment-for-Alzheimers.aspx#90290</link><pubDate>Wed, 28 Feb 2007 02:04:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:90290</guid><dc:creator>Josh Rubin</dc:creator><description>Healthyone,&lt;br&gt;You can find a lot of that in books by Jeffrey Bland and Dr. B (who writes all the books on water and who's name is long and hard to spell). As well, Russ since so many Americans are deficient in Omega 3 and have higher levels of 6, I begin people on 6-8 thousand mg in the am for about 2 months. Then I taper down after that. &lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=90290" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: A Sunny Treatment for Alzheimer's</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/02/27/A-Sunny-Treatment-for-Alzheimers.aspx#90285</link><pubDate>Tue, 27 Feb 2007 17:54:27 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:90285</guid><dc:creator>Russ Bianchi</dc:creator><description>What are recommended dosage levels of cod liver oil, or other supplement regiments per day&amp;nbsp;(I guess depending on body weight also and age/sex or other dietary intake) if you live in a region with limited SUN?&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Also, what if you are fare skinned, and not suppose to be in the sun for skin cancer predisposition issues?&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=90285" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: A Sunny Treatment for Alzheimer's</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/02/27/A-Sunny-Treatment-for-Alzheimers.aspx#90283</link><pubDate>Tue, 27 Feb 2007 16:58:51 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:90283</guid><dc:creator>Josh Rubin</dc:creator><description>There are lots of theories out there on why one would get Alzheimers. This is what I have found:&lt;br&gt;1. Chronic dehydration: the body robs the CNS first when you are dehydrated.&lt;br&gt;2. Chronic low levels of DHEA and Pregnenolone&lt;br&gt;3. Chronic low level so SIgA: SIgA is are first line of defense against pathogens. This is usually low secondary to stress, affecting the adrenal glands, which help to produce immunocytes, which produce SIgA.&lt;br&gt;4. Sever gluten intolerance's has shown to have a negative affect on the white matter of the brain, per Jeffery Bland.&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=90283" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
