Are we suffering from too much of a good thing?

Can megavitamins increase our risk of cancer and heart disease and shorten our lives?

The studies are in, and the short answer is: yes.

In a nutshell:

Free radicals aren’t as evil as advertised

We need free radicals to kill bacteria and eliminate new cancer cells.

The antioxidant paradox is simply this: 

Take too many vitamins and "the balance between free radical production and destruction might tip too much in one direction, causing an unnatural state where the immune system is less able to kill harmful invaders."

So, why aren't we told about this?

In the most humiliating defeat in the FDA's history, their attempt to regulate mega-vitamins on the basis that "ingesting large quantities of vitamins isun... more »

The Recovering Meditator

In April, my husband, Denis, gave me the gift of a one week silent meditation retreat at Gaia House in Devon. I've never been on such a retreat before and initially thought I would go crazy not being able to talk for a week, especially as the course outline said it was ‘not for beginners’! However, I quickly discovered that by having the normal mechanisms of a ‘civilised’ social context removed (i.e. no small talk at mealtimes in order to make myself look good or seem better than others), I actually felt a huge relief. I didn't need to pretend that I was confident and had my life sorted. In fact, the routine of each day was so pared down, to the simplicity of eating, sleeping, going to the bathroom and long periods of meditation, that there was no running away from the truth: I have no idea what my life is about or why I am here.

When you stray off track ...

"...The ability to notice what is going on for you right now is vital to great performance. To see well-worn paths that you recognise as either positive e.g. feeling really energetic and engaged, or those that are less so, as in my examples above, allows you to maximise one and take evasive action with the other."

Our children are saving the planet

A 19 year old Dutch Engineering student named, *Boyen Slat, designed an Ocean Clean Up Array that could cleanup megatons of plastics from our oceans in five years.

It  would use a floating system with buoyant arms extended over the ocean to direct and filter the plastic, without harming sea creatures. The system resembles a giant manta ray.

Boyen Slat is currently undertaking a feasibility study to determine if his solution for cleaning up the oceans plastic refuse is viable. I hope it is because it seems that it really could work and it may even be profitable.

I dashed out during a break in the rain, and just made it back (mostly dry) before it started coming down again! The spot of sunshine gave us a beautiful rainbow, but the sky still looks dark and ominous - more rain on the way, I expect!

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a copy of the 1990 movie by Eric Schrader, "Naked Tango"? It seems to be utterly unobtainable, and a friend would like to show it to her 3rd year Uni students, studying history and, specifically, the Argentina situation early in the 20th century.
