Why Child Bearing Is Healthy
From a purely biological perspective, bearing children can be considered the most important reason for a woman’s existence. For that matter, the same could be said about men, since both sexes are, in effect, disposable packages of genetic material. We die, but our genes continue on immortally.
With increasing population pressure and modern independent lifestyles (unlike the family farm where children were almost a necessity), procreation has become an option that is increasingly declined or at least significantly restricted. But with these choices women take themselves out of a natural biological role. Additionally, treating the breast as an ornament rather than a feeding organ – by opting for synthetic formulas – also removes women from a natural biological function.
When these choices are coupled with the use of contraceptive hormones, hormone replacement therapy, an increasing load of estrogenic pollutants in the environment and food, and a diet that has veered significantly from its natural design, the formula for hormonal pandemonium, metabolic dysfunction, and disease is in place. The result is early menses in children, infertility, abnormal and erratic menstrual cycles, cervical dysplasia, fibroids, endometrial cancer, breast cancer, premenstrual syndrome, dramatic mood swings and depression, osteoporosis, and other symptoms of abnormal menopause: hot flashes, psychological problems, decreased libido, and thinning of the vaginal wall.
This is a difficult problem with no easy solution. If women would have as many children as they are capable of, nurse them for years as they are designed to, eat natural foods, and live in a more pristine environment, most of these modern health problems would disappear.
If money flowed out of our tap we would not have economic problems either, right?
The desire to limit families may soon not even be an option. We either curtail population growth or we will saw through the branch we all sit on. Population is the engine that ultimately drives all environmental woes. We live on a finite planet with finite resources, but we have an infinite ability to breed. We either live within the limits of Earth’s sustainable resources or we will destroy ourselves. Having children may be a natural and healthy process, but can be a deadly game for sustainable life on Earth.
So we have a conundrum. Women need to fulfill their biological reproductive role to achieve metabolic balance and health, but if they do so unlimited, the health of life on Earth is jeopardized.
In an attempt to solve this dilemma, women have turned to the quick fix of pharmaceutical synthetic hormones. Hormones that control conception, hormones that control abnormal menstrual cycles, and hormones that fix menopause. It is an overly simplistic solution to a complex problem.
The saying, “Don’t mess with Mother Nature” is particularly applicable when dosing the body with hormones. Since the 1940’s when estrogen therapy became popular, hundreds of thousands of women have succumbed to cancer. For example, a woman is nearly 13 times more likely to get endometrial cancer, and at nearly a 30% increased risk of breast cancer when she takes estrogen. Recently, researchers have identified the two top preventable breast cancer risks: oral birth control pills and estrogen replacement therapy.
For those who justify the use of estrogen for the benefits of decreased risk of osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease, consider that proper exercise, diet and lifestyle choices can have the same beneficial effect without the potential consequence of cancer.
How have women specifically put themselves outside of their natural context to make themselves more susceptible to cancers?
The average mom gives birth to about two infants. Although this is an intelligent number from the standpoint of population control, it is unnatural in that by not continuing to have pregnancies and to nurse (which stops ovulations) she will ovulate an incredible 438 times during her lifetime.
On the other hand, a woman in the primitive natural setting who may not even know what causes pregnancy or how to prevent it even if they wanted to, would have started menstruating and ovulating at age twelve and would have delivered nine babies and breast-fed them over the course of her reproductive career. Breast-feeding can continue for children in a totally natural setting for up to five or more years of age. The combination of pregnancy along with breast-feeding in the premodern setting would have decreased the number of ovulations that a primitive mother would have had to about nine.
This means that today women cycle through their menstrual periods an abnormal number of times, subjecting their bodies to surges of estrogen 50 times greater than our primitive ancestors living in a natural setting.
Many cancers of women are sensitive to high levels of female hormones.
For example, breast cancer is sensitive to estrogen. In dogs, simply removing the ovaries can often prevent or halt the progress of mammary cancer. Tamoxifen in humans is used to block estrogen activity within the mammary glands and thus is believed to exert its protective effect in this way. (This pharmaceutical agent can, however, increase the risk of uterine cancer to about the same degree that the risk of breast cancer is reduced!)

The resting periods of lower estrogen levels that women experienced in the premodern setting served a protective effect to spare organs and tissues from cancer. Women who nurse for a total period of time of even as little as two years are known to have a decreased incidence of mammary cancer.
This excess ovulation hypothesis is the likely explanation for the tragic phenomenon of modern female cancers. When humans decide to flout and repudiate nature by interfering with natural biological design, disease will always be the consequence.
If the problem is a departure from nature, then the solution is a return to it. Here are some options:
1. Refer to the Wysong Optimal Health Program for guidelines on life choices that can enhance overall health and thus hormonal health (http://www.wysong.net/optimal_health_page1.shtml).
2. Emphasize fresh raw foods in the diet and avoid processed foods as much as possible.
3. Eliminate hydrogenated oils and refined sugars. Hydrogenated oils displace healthful dietary fats and have been shown to be carcinogenic, and sugars can stimulate a rise in estrogens.
4. Try to use organic foods as much as possible and avoid synthetic materials in cosmetics, at home and in the workplace to help reduce exposure to environmental estrogens.
5. Do not attempt “low fat” or “low cholesterol” fad diets that often create dependence upon processed carbohydrates and seriously reduce important natural dietary fats and essential fatty acids.
6. Increase the consumption of natural vegetable foods containing phytoestrogens which tend to counteract estrogens.
7. Avoid hormone medications if at all possible.
8. Explore natural birth control measures.
9. Nurse your babies for as long as you can.

Modern life presents many choices, freedoms and rights. Tinkering with child bearing, however, is a choice that is not without consequences. Women need to be aware and take the steps necessary to make sure the choices they make do not also bring with them the increased risk of serious modern diseases.

Baby Candy Could make the Difference Between a Good or Bad Shower
Your best friend, Susan is pregnant. She has just passed her first trimester and the excitement is really beginning to build up. Her cheeks are definitely glowing and all she can talk about is her baby. She can't wait for the next month or so when she will begin to feel those butterfly flickers that are the beginnings of her baby movements.
As her closest friend, and maid of honor at her wedding five years ago, you have decided to have a surprise baby shower for her. The 'surprise' is going to be big - and so you've got to fit your planning between your job schedule and the trips you and Susan take about town. You've also got to get it done fast, as you sense she is beginning to wonder why you have not yet started talking about her baby shower!
Big organizer that you are, you've gotten together with another friend who has done these things before and the planning has started, with the lists of invitees and snacks already made. You are trying to decide on the theme that will be reflected in the invitations, the favors and the décor - you're pulling out all the stops! According to the Chinese calendar, Susan is expected to have a baby girl (Susan absolutely refuses to find out about the sex of her baby - she's big on surprises!) and so the color scheme is going to be shades of pink.
After going online, you find out that there are a variety of fun candies in different colors and flavors, which you could use as favors:
1. Almond Sweets - There are delightful sweets that are associated with babies and children. They are also available in smaller sizes (though without the almond centers)
2. Baby Feet Lollipops - The ideal candy for the occasion
3. Candy Climbers - You may want to have just a few of these in a basket to add to the looks.
4. Candy Bouquets - When it comes to candies, the range is endless. You will impress your guests with miniature candy bouquets that are made from mints, chocolate or strawberries.
5. Bubblegum Babies - ooh, so cute!
6. Jelly Beans - are delightfully chewy
7. Pillow Mints - Cute little mints are the ideal size to pop into your mouth after a meal.
8. Candy Filled Baby Bottles - These are always great for some laughs and make nice gifts or prizes.
9. Candy Cigars - How about surprising your guests with a fascinating range of candy cigars? You can find a myriad of candy cigars packed in cute boxes that resemble cigar boxes. Use your creativity to think of different ways of packing your candy cigars.
The hard part is over now that the candy has been selected. All that is left is to purchase some attractive bags to wrap up and display the candies in and hand them out to your guests. Make sure to get plenty of extras because the attractive displays of a tasty treat will convince guests to take an extra for someone special at home.
Christopher Pratt is President of Candy Warehouse, the leading candy store for bulk candy discounts and specialty candy for specific occasions. Candy Warehouse has novelty candy for many special occasions such as baby shower candy for all your sweet needs.


Early Signs Of Pregnancy - Did You Know?
The early signs of pregnancy being talked about here are much before the fifth week when the first menstrual period is missed. Yes, there are other symptoms of pregnancy that can indicate towards a woman having successfully conceived.
Tenderness in Breasts
The breasts becoming tender and a bloated abdomen is also an early sign of pregnancy. As these pregnancy symptoms are similar to what happens before the periods it can be confusing. Women also begin to urinate more frequently a week or so after having conceived. This too happens much before the first period is missed. The body temperature may also go up after conceiving. This pregnancy symptom occurs due to ovulation. This symptom continues almost until the time when the next period is expected.
Spotting
Pink or brown spotting much like the beginning of menstrual periods during this time is among early signs of pregnancy. The discharge an important pregnancy symptom is not as heavy as menstrual bleeding. This occurs due to implantation. It is essential that the pregnancy be confirmed through a test. If there is excessive bleeding while the test shows a positive result then the mother must consult a gynecologist. This often occurs in the case of an embryo attaching itself to the wrong part of the uterus. Such a situation may give rise to complications.
Women often experience extreme fatigue and restlessness in the early part of their pregnancy. This is again a pregnancy symptom that can be extremely confusing. It is just like any other form of tiredness that the body experiences due to stress and exhaustion. The cramping of the uterus, due to after exercising or experiencing an orgasm, maybe recognized as an early sign of pregnancy.
How can I know for sure that I am pregnant in the first one month?
There is no way of knowing for sure that you are pregnant in the first one month. Most of the early signs of pregnancy can be misleading. A pregnancy test is the only way one can know for sure.
What next?
After the detection of the early signs of pregnancy and a positive test result, you must become careful about all that you do. Giving up, or, at least gradually cutting down on smoking and alcohol become extremely important. Special attention must be paid to diet.
It is imperative that extreme caution is exercised during the period of pregnancy. The sooner you know about your pregnancy the better equipped you are to concentrate on the healthy development of your child. Tracking and being able to identify the early signs of pregnancy is then important.
Early signs of pregnancy are an important indicator of the fact of you being pregnant. However, not all pregnancy symptoms confirm the fact that you are on the family way. You need to take a pregnancy test to confirm that. Once confirmed, follow the diet and lifestyle prescribed by your doctor to have a healthy pregnancy.
