The Google Health has invented a service that they called the Medical Google. This must be surprising many people, not only the doctors, pharmaceutical staffs, but also patients, because by letting other people know about the medical records from a patient mean that this would give other options on medications. The rivals in this business could not agree about the idea of this Google Medical.

They give reasons that this accessible medical record would only give a threat on personal life. They said that people’s medical record should be protected and only few people could have the access about this. But not according to Google Health. They believe that out there, the family member and friends from this patient need to know about these medical records, because it could help much.

For instance it could help give alternative ideas of medications; it could help the patient to get second opinion. That information is accessible if they search for more detail in Medical Search Engine.

This method uses essential oils as their primary medium. Each essential oil contains different properties. For example, some are soothing while others are stimulating. Others are antiseptic, antibacterial and antifungal.

Essential oils have been used throughout history by the Egyptians, Persians, the French and even the Bible mentions them. Recently, the use of aromatherapy has gained much popularity in the United States. In England there are 25 schools that are dedicated to studying the properties of these substances.

Aromatherapy works when the aroma is absorbed and reaches the brain’s limbic system. Through various processes, the limbic system, that is the center of emotions, react to the aroma.

There are four ways to apply essential oil:

* Through a massage. For this essential oil is diluted in a vegetable oil base.
Inhale. Pouring a few drops of oil in a pan of boiling water and inhale the steam.
* Bath tub. Added 6 drops to bath water. It remains in the water at least 10 minutes.
* Spray. Are added 2 or 3 drops of oil to a pot with little water and light a fire underneath.

How does aromatherapy?

The chemicals that flow from the oils act on the brain influencing the mood and the hormonal system. The oil massage relaxes muscles and improves circulation, helping to relieve pain and regenerate tissues.

When is it used?

Essential oils are commonly used for stress problems such as headaches and insomnia. They are also used for digestive problems, colds, menstrual problems and relaxation. They are also used to relieve burns and speed the process and the appearance of scarring.

Conventional medicine is becoming increasingly expensive and complicated. This is why many people try to find alternative therapies and natural remedies to treat their diseases. However, it’s important to keep in mind that such therapies should be used to complement and not in lieu of professional medical care.

An example of the growing popularity of natural remedies is in stores. Many of the herbal remedies that were sold shortly before and only found in health food stores today are sold in every supermarket and in greater numbers than before. Another example is the yoga which was considered as a practice of the hippies, today has become a serious discipline and respected by many professionals. It is used to maintain good health and peace of mind.

One of the attractions of alternative therapies is the emphasis on treating the individual as a whole, i.e., in body, mind and spirit. Several of these therapies are based on the belief that health depends on perfect balance between the physical, emotional and spiritual.

When talking about alternative therapies is very important to make clear that you should not substitute for medical care, especially in the case of an emergency. Optimally, alternative therapy is used as an adjunct to conventional medicine.

In this section you will find the explanation of some of the alternative therapies that exist.

The pineapple, a native of tropical America and now widely cultivated in all tropical regions of the world.

Bromeliaceae is a land, while many plants in this family are epiphytes (hence the error of the designer of “Tarzan of the Apes King” who grew the pineapple in the trees).

The leaves are large, jagged, spiny, blue-green rather dark inflorescence leads to a particular fruit, a coenocarpe.
There is an association of fruit with the same inflorescence and floral stem spiny bracts that become very fleshy.

The pineapple, dark green when not ripe, turns yellow-orange or greenish-brown and very fragrant when ripe.

Chemical Composition and Properties

The fruit is rich in sugars at maturity: 10-15% mono-and disaccharides;
there are also organic acids and vitamins:
Vitamin C, 40 mg per 100g (or as much as oranges)
and vitamin B1, 0.08 mg per 100 g.
The aroma is due to a complex mixture of aliphatic compounds.

In the ripe fruit and the stem there is a mixture of proteolysis enzymes (see glossary), and bromelain (bromelain).
They are glycoprotein structurally similar to papain (papaya or, carica papaya).

These molecules are activated by reducing agents, inhibited by oxidants and metals and destroyed by cooking.
Bromelain has anti-inflammatory and anti-exudative which are undoubtedly related to its interaction in the metabolism of protein compounds that initiate the inflammatory process.

In vitro there is also a power antiaggrégant platelet (see Glossary) and fibrinolytic.

Uses

The pineapple is a delicious fruit first, bringing refreshing and natural sugars and vitamins.

It is eaten raw, cooked and not dried, in jams or “chutney”;

it is mixed with other fruits in salads, but also relates to meat, fish or vegetables in particular Asian cuisine.

Pacific people use small pieces of pineapple and other plants in the manufacture of necklaces or crowns odoriferous.

You can tenderize the meat by letting it marinate 2-3 hours in a mixture of oil, lemon juice and slices of fresh pineapple (bromelain is destroyed in cooking)

* The purified extracts and concentrates of bromelain are a good indication in post-traumatic edema and to reduce cellulite closets and can associate them with antibiotics
(Better penetration into sites of infection?)
* They are also recommended in the secretory digestive deficiencies in combination with other enzymatic extracts (including pancreatic).

More commonly, fresh pineapple is a good remedy for indigestion banal (overload), so it’s a perfect dessert.

It can be replaced by homeopathic tincture (see glossary)
1 D, dye pineapple: 50 drops 1-2 times a day.

Beware, though the pineapple peel before eating, the “eyes” a bit tricky at the periphery of the fruit injured oral mucosa may cause in some people, sores very painful. Finally, the green pineapple is unpalatable, it is a known abortifacient in tropical countries.

Now it is mainly for external use that is retained.

- For torpid wounds, chronic ulcers
- Bruises with skin abrasions
- Skin inflammation with or without infection
- Superficial burns even super infected, post radiation dermatitis
- As a disinfectant of the oropharynx as a mouthwash or gargle
- As a disinfectant in the female genital (virginities, leucorrhea)
- As anti-inflammatory eye drops Anti-infective

Internal use is more limited and must be limited to a few days, max 15 days (the concern is slightly toxic):

* Inflammation-infection of the digestive tract (colitis, gastroduodenitis)
* In addition to the external treatment of bruising
* 2006 Spanish researchers have studied the properties of a new marigold extract: an aqueous extract having undergone a prolonged laser (LACE). In this study, the marigold extract proves inhibit several types of cancer cells in mice. Inhibition of tumor growth is between 70 and 100%, cancer cells are stopped in their growth and multiplication, some self-destruct (apoptosis). This study is isolated and, to my knowledge, no clinical applications.

The marigold flower can be eaten, it adds color and flavor to salads original.

Dosage

Debridement of wounds, antisepsis of the oropharynx and genitalia:

* Infusion of the fresh plant: a handful in half liter of warm water, 10-15 minutes
* Infusion of the dried plant: 1-2 teaspoons per cup of hot water, 10-15 minutes
* Tincture diluted 1 / 10 in distilled water or 1 / 3 as a compress in cases of infection and tissue shredding

Internal use (limited to 15 days):

* Infusion: One to three cups per day
* Tincture: 20 drops one to three times per day

There are commercially available preparations of calendula cream, eye drops
sometimes with other plants referred to dermatological (eg St. John’s wort, echinacea).

Calendula (marigold) is a component of many cosmetic products: soothing, protective against sunburn, dermatitis due to radiotherapy, as regenerating skin.

The concern of the field has the same medicinal properties as the gardens.
The daisy is essentially liniment and healing (infusion, tincture).

Calendula Arvensis
Calendula Officinalis
Paquerette

These three plants are very common in Europe

The concern of the gardens is a plant (rather cultivated), annual or perennial but short-lived, generally undeveloped but with foliage and provided mostly very typical flowers: orange, sometimes yellow, 4-6 cm in diameter.
The flowering period is prolonged, especially summer but you can find trouble in bloom almost all year.

The concern of the field (pictured right) is smaller in size and is a ruderal plant that is often found on the edge of field, in the vineyards.

The daisy is a perennial, small, with leaves in a basal rosette, it flowers almost all year (especially in spring and summer in the north), very common in meadows, lawns, roadsides and highways.
The flowers and to a lesser extent the leaves of these three plants are medicinal.

Chemical Composition and Properties

The composition of the flower (floral capitulum) of concern is quite well known but does not clearly explain its medicinal properties.
They include:

* Flavonoids (including derivatives quercétol: anti-inflammatory)
* Triterpene compounds (alcohols): anti-inflammatory
* A little essential oil (to sesquiterpenes)
* Saponins some ginseng saponins close
* Pigments: carotenoids and xanthophylls
* Mucilage (in leaves)

The mother tincture is antibacterial in vitro, aqueous extract (containing saponins) is anti-inflammatory in vivo.

In vitro Marigold accelerates the maturation and proliferation of lymphocytes, are active on HIV / AIDS (500 micrograms per ml) and reduce the activity of reverse transcriptase (an enzyme critical in infection by the AIDS virus).

Uses

The concern is known as a medicinal plant since ancient Greek, later it was cultivated in the medicinal gardens of the Middle Ages.
We knew him already as antipyretic, wound healing, but also regulatory rules, topical for hemorrhoids, anti-icteric, and anti-cancer“.

In the 19th century, North American surgeons advocated its use to speed healing, prevent infection and soothe the pain of surgical wounds.
