The Survivor's Guide to Bird & Swine Flu

Customer Review
With the current Swine flu epidemic killing people in Mexico and infecting people in the USA, New Zealand, France and Spain at time of writing the review, this book is an extremely useful resource for people who want to prepare their immune systems to be more resistant to H1N1 influenza. While this book covers the H5N1 Avian Influenza in detail - I wanted to let you know that the information in it is directly applicable to the current H1N1 Swine Flu virus because the Swine Flu virus is actually a mix of pig flu, bird flu and human flu. The H1N1 virus is the same virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic that killed millions of people globally. The book is packed full of useful information about how to survive a pandemic using nutrition, herbs, homeopathics and even anti-viral aromatherapy oils and I include over 500 references to scientific papers that support my recommendations. There is also a fascinating history of pandemics and the treatments that helped throughout the ages and a very useful section on the practicalities of survival - including how to stockpile food and water should this virus mutate to cause a pandemic. This book has been very well received by the medical community and has had very positive reviews in the mainstream press. USA Survivor's Guide to Bird & Swine Flu

Feeling tired all the time? Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (The Facts)

Over the past decade, GPs have had to deal with increasing numbers of patients with a complaint for which there is no known cure: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Here two authors, one who has CFS, the other a doctor who has spent years helping sufferers, have combined their experiences to offer hope to the permanently exhausted.

An overactive or striving lifestyle, with inadequate time for rest and reflection over a long period is one possible trigger. A virus infection may act as a trigger in some people. A severe emotional upset or some other kind of trauma may be a cause in others. It could also be a combination of these things. You may well have found that doing nothing for a day or two makes you feel better, and believe that more rest is the answer. There is a real danger in people with chronic fatigue making themselves worse by becoming too inactive. Prolonged inactivity, even in fit people, can itself cause fatigue and make it harder to do anything. Spending a lot of time in bed or just sitting can make you feel weak and worsen pain.

It really will help your body if you can keep it moving, even if all you can manage is a small amount at intervals throughout the day. Little and often works well. The best forms of exercise for someone with chronic fatigue are bending, stretching, walking, swimming and cycling and alternating periods of activity, both physical and mental, with periods of good-quality rest. Your aim should be to stop before you become exhausted. Sticking to a consistent pattern of physical and mental activities, both during the day and over a week, is one of the best things you can do to give yourself more energy. Plan a programme for yourself and make sure it includes things that give you pleasure as well as necessary chores.

Why do you need to be so hard on yourself? It is possible to get as much satisfaction and pleasure by doing something you want to do in a different way. Spending an evening with friends, for example, can be just as enjoyable if you order a takeaway meal rather than preparing all the food yourself. If you still find it hard to stop being a perfectionist, try telling yourself that your pacing programme and getting better are your priority and concentrate on doing that in the best way you can.

Lost Films of Laurel and Hardy: The Complete Collection, Vol. 1 [DVD]

Volume One of "The Lost Films of Laurel & Hardy" offers four misadventures of the boys from the late 1920s: "Big Business" (1929, 21 min.) has Laurel & Hardy as Christmas tree salesmen in July and is far and away the best offering on this DVD. James Finlayson becomes the test of their salesmanship and the battle is not over until his home and their business are totally destroyed. I like Tiny Sandord as the policeman who watches everthing while making copious notes, waiting for a reason to become involved, at which point Stan takes apart a piano with an axe. A comedy classic of the first rank. "Do Detectives Think?" (1927, 24 min.) has the distinction of being the first film to present Laurel & Hardy as the team we come to love. Convicted murderer Noah Young escapes from prison and vows vengeance on the judge (James Finlayson) who sentenced him. The boys are inept employees of a private detective agency assigned to guard the judge. Young goes after the judge with giant knives and swords, but the boys keep getting in his way. Even though they give up protecting their client, they do end up catching the convict by a fluke. "Call of the Cuckoo" (1927, 18 min.) merely features Laurel & Hardy as guest stars, their heads shaved because they were playing convicts in "The Second Hundred Years" being filmed at the same time. The star here is Max Davidson who moves into his new house only to discover every thing falls apart (including his bathtub). The boys do some sort of William Tell act. "The Finishing Touch" (1928, 21 min.), has Laurel & Hardy as contractors for agree to build a house in a day for an impatient homeowner while harassed by cop Edgar Kennedy. The best sequence has Oliver continually swallowing mouthfuls of nails. The only real problem with this two reeler is that there isn't a really satisfactory climax to it all. Also includes are a pair of Stan Laural solo shorts, "On the Front Page" (1926, 23 min.) and "Hustling for Health" (1918, 15 min.)

Yet this obsession with our diet does not seem to be making us any thinner, or any healthier.

In Supersize Vs Superskinny, Dr Christian Jessen uses science, medicine and most importantly common sense to help us get back on track. There are explanatory chapters outlining why we're so obsessed with our weight and body image, and exactly why it is so dangerous to be supersize or superskinny, followed by practical chapters to help us understand our own behavior and change our relationship with food for the better. Topping it all off, there are eating plans and recipes to help you find a healthy balance and reach your ideal weight, whatever your current size. Supportive, practical, informed and beautifully illustrated, Supersize Vs Superskinny is the perfect book for anyone wishing to take control of their weight and learn more about how to have a happy, healthy attitude towards food.
