33: Preventing Alzheimer's Disease
At one time Alzheimer’s Disease was thought to have affected only those over 65, however, today we are seeing many in their forties with the onset of this dreadful disease. It was once classified as senility to the maximum degree but it would be more appropriate today to characterize it as tangled nerve fibers surrounding the brain’s memory center. When these nerve fibers become tangled, nerve impulses can no longer carry information to or from the brain. Because the brain circuits become disconnected, information cannot be retrieved. The information in the brain is not destroyed, but is prevented from being transferred. It would be like having information in your computer, but no way of bringing it to the screen for viewing.

34: Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel, sometimes referred to as spastic colon or colitis, is a digestive disorder. It has been determined that one in every five adults experience symptoms of IBS, although very few seek help. Some of the symptoms include diarrhea or constipation; even altering between the two at times, as well as abdominal pain, which can be excruciating. Other symptoms range between bloating, flatulence, mucous, and intolerance to certain foods, namely lactose. Most dread eating because of the abdominal pain, headaches and diarrhea. As a result of not being able to digest, a malabsorption of vitamins and minerals exist, making one very deficient in nutrients greatly needed.
