    One of the best indicators of Ageing is level of inflammation in your systems. C-reactive protein (CRP)was originally discovered by Tillett and Francis in 1930 as a substance in the serum of patients with acute inflammation. As inflammation increases so does the level of CRP - it is this CRP that is reduced with both Steroids and Statins (those drugs that reduce Cholesterol)

    Raw Food Reverses Diabetes - FACT!!! In a closely monitored trial of 6 people with insulin dependant diabetes by adopting a raw food diet over 30 days - that means no meat, no dairy and eating foods close to the way nature made them. In 30 days each one was off Insulin, getting back to a normal weight, looking and feeling immeasurably better.

    This looks like an unlikely combination but what we've found is that combining various dietary and nutritionally lead approaches to Sickle Cell with Trehalose has produced results that we couldn't have dreamed of. We have to be honest but some of what we are seeing in terms of the effects of Trehalose can only be explained by educated guesswork. For example why are pain levels reduced when using Trehalose. Why, when using Trehalose, have haemoglobin levels gone up to levels never seen before?

    In the film Love Actually it features a fruitarian who comes in for a bit a stick. She is an extreme form of a new diet which concentrates on raw foods. These diets are not new, but the eating plans that focus on them are and this trend in healthy eating appears to be gaining strength across Europe. The focus of the diet is on eating uncooked, highly nutritious foods - fruits and vegetables but not meat or any animal products. Of course, these foods are low in calories and extremely good for you, but eating them raw or uncooked is favoured. Cooking food results in such a loss of nutritional value that they become virtually valueless when cooked.

    Learn about Trehalose and how it can aid healthful living. It is a viable, natural alternative to sucrose (white table sugar) and research suggests that it is a good alternative natural sweetener and much better than Aspartame or Nutra Sweet - oh and an added benefit is that you will have better energy levels throughout the day. When eaten it has a very low effect on the blood glucose level and hence is very useful for diabetics. Due to its ability to stabilise protein it may also have some benefits in terms of aiding neurological degenerative diseases.

    Sickle Cell was very poorly understood as recently as 1960. It existed we just didn't understand it. Today we understand it but we don't have any cure or hope of a cure and pharmaceutical drugs don't work well in the long term management of the condition. So we work to help parents and adults help their children and themselves to live full and productive lives. Click Here to get your complementary Parents Guide to Sickle Cell
