23.01.2022 Turmeric Turmeric is a favourite. Its good in curries, and recently weve seen hype around the turmeric latte. Stories pop up regularly about its healing power, normally based on curcumin. Curcumin refers to a group of compounds, called curcuminoids, that might have some health benefits, like reducing inflammation.... Inflammation helps us to fight infections and respond to injuries, but too much inflammation is a problem in diseases like arthritis, and might be linked to other conditions like heart disease or stroke. You need 100g of turmeric per day for a reasonable dose of the magic ingredient, curcumin. (John And Gill: Www.Flickr.Com) Human trials on curcumin have been inconclusive, but most use curcumin supplementation in very large doses of 1 to 12 grams per day. Turmeric is about 3 per cent curcumin, so for each gram of turmeric you eat you only get 0.03g of curcumin. This means youd have to eat more than 30g of turmeric to get the minimum active dose of turmeric. Importantly, curcumin in turmeric is not very bioavailable. This means we only absorb about 25 per cent of what we eat, so you might actually have to eat well over 100g of turmeric, every day, to get a reasonable dose of curcumin. Thats a lot of curry.

21.01.2022 Do You Suffer Pain in the Heels? Doctors say you cant fix it......We Say We Can. Do you wake up in the morning with Painful Heels?... Have you been told you have Heel Spurs, Policemans Heel or Plantar Fasciitis. "Instant relief after months of pain and discomfort" L Rowles The most common cause of burning pain in the heel is caused by an inflammation or micro tearing of the tough fibrous band of tissue that runs the length of the bottom of your foot. You may feel the pain after you walk but not necessarily when you walk. Have you ever felt pain in the bottoms of your feet first thing in the morning that seems to get better as the day wears on? Those first ten steps you take in the morning are usually the most painful. Do you experience pain when standing after sitting for a while.

I was amazed by the almost instant relief. I have not looked back. In the past I have tried cortisone needles, blood injections guided by ultra sound but this also was no help with the excruciating pain. G Scott I have suffered severe pain for a number of years my GP sent me to a foot surgeon who (thankfully) said no to the operation; following a MRI I was diagnosed with collapsed metatarsals, neuroma, and torn plantar fascia. He recommended a podiatrist who was ineffective. I went to an Orthotists in Sydney who did help but still had issues. Came across Michael, He has saved my feet. I can now walk and hike. Thank you so much for helping me. I was in desperation prior to this. - P Paltridge "Instant Relief" Injections in the past just didnt work, Dry needling didnt work. AFK Sports Clinic made Orthotic for me within 1 hour. I had "Instant Relief". Fantastic!! - T Mallen My plantar fasciitis was fully healed after a minimum time of wearing the orthotic that Michael made me. I had previously tried Podiatrist and even acu-puncture to no avail. Michael cares and follows up. D Rigby Instant relief after months of pain and discomfort. Have worn for 1 Month constantly and no pain.. L Rowles Was very sceptical however found immediate relief G Rutherford Super informative, great explanations, proper research, this is the first time someone really knows what theyre talking about.
