The properties of magnets were first noticed in ancient times by Thales of Miletus, a philosopher, possibly the first philosopher in the true ancient Greek tradition. Thales was born around 624 BC and stubbornly refused to accept supernatural or superstitious explanations for the events around him. Many regard him as the Father of Science. A son of noble parents, Thales received a good education and and travelled to Egypt where he applied his mind to using geometry to work out the height of pyramids. (more…)

What is a Water Purifier and Why Do I Want One

On May 7, 2010, In Wellness, By Lesley

If you live in an area which is prone to naturCrown Berkey Stainless Steel Water Purification Systemal disasters (I’m thinking Florida and hurricanes, but I’m sure there are others) you may want to take a look at our range of Berkey Water Purifier Systems. There are several different sizes, they’re all fully portable and no power supply is needed.  You already have a water filter? Let me explain the difference.
Water filters remove the rubbish from water, it’s true, but water purifiers are something else again.  We usually attach water filters to the tap and use them to treat water which has already been treated. Water purifiers go further. You can use them to treat water from untreated sources; rivers, streams, even stagnant ponds.  They not only remove bacteria from water, they remove viruses, which are far, far smaller. (more…)

How to Conquer Your Drinking Problem

There really is nothing more fundamental to our health than water, so let me ask you this very simple question. How much actual water do you drink? I’ve just been told that my water requirement, given not too much exercise, normal environment, should be about 3 liters a day. That’s about thirteen and a half glasses.  Given that, on average we spend eight hours each day asleep,  that works out on average to about 1 glass of water every hour. I don’t know about you, but my intake’s not even close. Worse still, that’s just me.  At 3 liters a day, my household of five should consume 105 liters, 28 gallons of water every week or 1442 gallons in a year.  That’s a lot of water, so the next question clearly is where should I get it?

LED Therapy Advances Through NASA Research

LED technology developed by NASA for plant growth experimentation indicated that this technology could be effective in promoting human tissue growth and wound healing.   LEDs do not produce significant heat and were selected for their plant growth experiments in space.  After the success of this application of LEDs, NASA looked to them for helping astronauts heal from injuries.

While in space, astronauts are subject to muscle and bone atrophy.  Also, injures that happen in space will tend not to heal until the astronaut returns to Earth.  NASA found that infrared light (more…)
