Acne

Acne Introduction: Acne is an inflammatory skin condition characterized by clogged pores, blackheads, and pimples. The oil glands, or sebaceous glands, are connected to hair follicles and release a substance known as sebum that lubricates hair and skin. http://www.mydr.com.au/skin-hair/acne-overview

Alcoholism

Alcoholism is a chronic, often progressive disease in which a person craves alcohol and drinks despite repeated alcohol related problems (like losing a job or a relationship). Alcoholism involves a physical dependence on alcohol, but other factors include genetic, psychological, and cultural influences. http://www.virtualmedicalcentre.com/

Allergic Rhinitis

Allergic rhinitis is an allergic reaction that happens when your immune system overreacts to substances that you have inhaled, such as pollen. The two types of allergic rhinitis are seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and perennial allergic rhinitis, which occurs year-round. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000813.htm

Aloe

The Aloe vera plant has been used for thousands of years to heal a variety of conditions, most notably burns, wounds, skin irritations, and constipation. It is grown in most subtropical and tropical locations, including South Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean. http://aloeverabenefits.com/

Alopecia

Alopecia is the loss of hair. Hair loss can be caused by different reasons, including damage to the hair shaft or follicles. Fungal infections can also cause hair loss. There are two main types of alopecia. Alopecia areata occurs when the body’s immune system attacks hair follicles and causes hair to fall out. http://www.medicinenet.com/alopecia_areata/article.htm

Alpha-lipoic acid

Alpha-lipoic acid Overview: Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that is made by the body and is found in every cell, where it helps turn glucose into energy. Antioxidants are substances that attack \”free radicals,\” waste products created when the body turns food into energy. Free radicals cause harmful chemical reactions that can damage cells in the body, making it harder for the body to fight off infections. They also damage organs and tissues. Unlike other antioxidants, which work only in water (such as vitamin C) or fatty tissues (such as vitamin E), alpha-lipoic acid is both fat- and water-soluble. http://www.alphalipoicacid.com/

Amenorrhea

primary and secondary. When a girl reaches age 16 and has not had a period, she may have primary amenorrhea. When a woman who has been having periods misses three in a row, she is considered to have secondary amenorrhea. Secondary amenorrhea is more common than primary amenorrhea. Amenorrhea is a sign of another condition, not a disease itself. Many things can cause it, from low body weight to hormonal imbalances to problems with the pituitary gland. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/amenorrhea/DS00581

American ginseng

The name \”ginseng\” is used to refer to both American (Panax quinquefolius) and Asian or Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng), which belong to the genus Panax and have a somewhat similar chemical makeup. http://www.rxlist.com/ginseng_american/supplements.htm

Amyloidosis

Primary amyloidosis (AL), the most common form, occurs when bone marrow produces too much of certain fragments of antibody proteins, which build up in the bloodstream and may be deposited in body tissues. http://www.medicinenet.com/amyloidosis/article.htm

Complementary and alternative medicine

What is CAM? Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is a term used to describe a wide range of healing systems that are not considered part of mainstream or conventional Western medicine. The goal of conventional medicine is to find the physical source of a particular disease and then treat it. For example, if a person has an infection, a conventional doctor may prescribe an antibiotic to kill the invading bacteria. CAM practitioners, on the other hand, take a more \”holistic\” approach to health care. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/complementaryandalternativemedicine.html

Anaphylaxis

Anaphylaxis is a sudden, serious allergic reaction that can be life threatening. Symptoms may be mild to start, but they become severe in minutes, or even seconds. Occasionally, the symptoms develop gradually over 24 hours. http://www.allergyfacts.org.au/

Anemia

Anemia occurs when your blood does not have enough red blood cells to properly carry oxygen to your organs and tissues. Because your body doesn’t get enough oxygen, you feel tired – one of the primary symptoms of anemia. http://www.medicinenet.com/anemia/article.htm

Angina

Angina is chest pain caused by restricted blood flow to the heart (called ischemia). It usually occurs when you are under emotional or physical stress (such as exercise). The heart doesn\’t get enough oxygen from the coronary arteries, and you feel a squeezing chest pain or pressure across your chest, which usually goes away after you stop the activity. http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/dci/Diseases/Angina/Angina_WhatIs.html

Angioedema

Angioedema refers to swelling that happens just below the surface of the skin, most often around the lips and eyes. In an allergic reaction, the body produces histamine, which causes blood vessels to swell. Angioedema is similar to hives, but with hives there are itchy red welts on the surface of your skin. Angioedema is a deeper swelling. http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/756261-overview

Beta-carotene

Beta-carotene is a type of pigment found in plants, especially carrots and colorful vegetables. The name beta-carotene is derived from the Latin name for carrot. It gives yellow and orange fruits and vegetables their rich hues. Beta-carotene is also used as a coloring agent for foods such as margarine. Beta-carotene is converted to vitamin A (retinol) by the body. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/999.html

Biofeedback

Biofeedback is a technique that trains people to improve their health by controlling certain bodily processes that normally happen involuntarily, such as heart rate, blood pressure, muscle tension, and skin temperature. http://psychotherapy.com/bio.html

Bone cancer

Bone cancers are rare forms of cancer that can affect any bone in the body. Two types of bone cancer are multiple myeloma and bone sarcomas. About 2,000 primary bone cancers are diagnosed in the United States each year. Bone cancers can also happen when tumors that start in other organs, such as breasts, lung, and prostate, metastasize (spread) to the bone. http://www.medicinenet.com/bone_cancer/article.htm

Brain cancer

More than 17,000 people in the United States are diagnosed each year with a brain tumor. Some tumors are benign (noncancerous). Noncancerous tumors can usually be removed and are not likely to recur. Other tumors are malignant (cancerous). http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/braincancer.html

Breast cancer

Breast cancer is when a cancerous tumor occurs inside the breast. Each year more than 185,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer. Incidence rates rose 21{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} from 1973 – 1990, but then began to decline. Mortality rates have stayed relatively constant until recently, when annual decreases have been seen. http://www.breastcancer.org/

Bronchitis

Bronchitis occurs when the air passages in your lungs become inflamed. Bronchitis can be acute or chronic. Acute bronchitis is usually due to a viral infection – such as a cold -that starts in your nose or sinuses and spreads to the airways. http://www.emedicinehealth.com/bronchitis/article_em.htm

Burns

Burns can happen when the skin is exposed to heat (from fire or hot liquids), electricity, corrosive chemicals, or radiation (UV rays from the sun or tanning beds, or radiation treatments). Burns are classified as follows, according to the severity of tissue damage: First degree burns – affect only the outer layer of the skin (epidermis), causing pain and redness. Second degree burns – extend to the second layer of the skin (the dermis), causing pain, redness, and blisters that may ooze. http://www.medicinenet.com/burns/article.htm

Calcium

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body. It is essential for the development and maintenance of strong bones and teeth, the location of about 99{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} of the body\’s calcium. Calcium also helps the heart, nerves, muscles, and other body systems work properly. http://www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/bhcv2/bhcarticles.nsf/pages/calcium

Carpal tunnel syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is an injury caused by a pinched nerve in the wrist. The injury causes pain and numbness in the index and middle fingers and weakness of the thumb. Carpal tunnel receives its name from the eight bones in the wrist, called carpals, which form a \”tunnel\” through which the nerve leading to the hand extends. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/carpaltunnelsyndrome.html

Celery seed

Today, celery seed is used primarily as a diuretic, meaning it increases urine output to help the body get rid of excess water. Celery seed is also sometimes used for treating arthritis and gout, and to help reduce muscle spasms, calm the nerves, and reduce inflammation. http://www.yourhealth.com.au/information-on-natural-medicine-herbs-detail.php?name=Celery{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7}20seed

Celiac sprue

Celiac disease, also called celiac sprue, is a digestive disease in which eating gluten – a protein found in bread, pasta, and other foods – damages the small intestine. http://www.emedicinehealth.com/celiac_sprue/article_em.htm

Cellulitis

Cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the skin. It can also affect the deeper layers of connective tissue beneath your skin and, in severe cases, spread to your lymph nodes. Bacteria get into the skin through a cut, scrape, or other laceration. Cellulitis most often affects the legs, but it may also affect the arms, face, and scalp. Generally, taking antibiotics cures cellulitis. However, the condition sometimes leads to serious complications. Without treatment, it can become life threatening. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000855.htm

Cervical Dysplasia

Cervical dysplasia is a condition characterized by the abnormal growth of cells on the surface of the cervix, indicating either precancerous or cancerous cells. The condition is classified as low-grade or high-grade, depending on the extent of the abnormal cell growth. Low-grade cervical dysplasia progresses very slowly and typically resolves on its own. High-grade cervical dysplasia can lead to cervical cancer. http://www.medicinenet.com/cervical_dysplasia/article.htm

Chiropractic

Chiropractic concentrates on manipulating the spine and other joints to treat illnesses. It is based on the belief that because the nervous system controls the body, correcting the spine can treat a variety of illness. http://www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/bhcv2/bhcarticles.nsf/pages/Chiropractic?open

Echinacea

Named for the prickly scales in its large conical seed head, the herb resembles the spines of an angry hedgehog (echinos is Greek for hedgehog). http://nccam.nih.gov/health/echinacea/

Eczema

Eczema is a chronic, inflammatory skin disorder. It can appear as blisters that crust over to become scaly, itchy rashes, or as dry, thick patches of skin with scales. The main symptom is itching, and symptoms can come and go. http://www.medicinenet.com/eczema/article.htm

Edema Edema (also known as dropsy or fluid retention) is swelling caused by the accumulation of abnormally large amounts of fluid in the spaces between the body\’s cells or in the circulatory system. It is most common in feet, ankles, and legs. http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/159111.php

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is one of several omega-3 fatty acids used by the body. It is found in cold water fatty fish, such as salmon. It is also found in fish oil supplements, along with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Omega-3 fatty acids are part of a healthy diet that helps lower risk of heart disease. http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/eicosapentaenoic-acid-000301.htm

Endocarditis

Endocarditis is an inflammation of the endocardium, the inner lining of the heart and heart valves. Most cases are caused by a bacterial infection. Endocarditis is a serious ailment that can lead to severe medical complications, and can even be fatal if not treated. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/001098.htm

Endometriosis

Endometriosis occurs when endometrial cells – the cells that make up the lining of the uterus – travel outside the uterus to other parts of the body. These misplaced cells are stimulated by hormones, just like the cells within the uterus, building up and shedding blood during menstruation each month. Blood from these cells causes deposits to accumulate and form scar tissue, which can be painful. Endometriosis affects 6 – 10{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} of American women of childbearing age and 30 – 45{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} of women with infertility. http://www.medicinenet.com/endometriosis/article.htm

Ephedra

Ephedra ( Ephedra sinica) , also called ma huang, has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for more than 5,000 years, primarily to treat asthma or bronchitis. Ephedra is also prescribed for symptoms of cold and flu, including nasal congestion, cough, fever, and chills. http://www.ephedra.com/

Erythema

Erythema is a skin condition characterized by redness or rash. There are many types of erythema, including photosensitivity, erythema multiforme, and erythema nodusum. Photosensitivity is caused by a reaction to sunlight and tends to occur when something, such as an infection or a medication, increases your sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation. Erythema multiforme is characterized by raised spots or other lesions on the skin. It is usually caused by a reaction to medications, infections, or illness. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000851.htm

Eucalyptus

Oil from the eucalyptus tree (Eucalyptus globulus) is used today in many over-the-counter cough and cold products, to relieve congestion. Eucalyptus oil is also found in creams and ointments used to relieve muscle and joint pain, and in some mouthwashes. The eucalyptus tree is native to Australia http://anpsa.org.au/eucalypt.html

Evening primrose oil

Evening primrose is a wildflower that grows throughout the U.S. Although Native Americans used the seeds for food and made poultices from the whole plant to heal bruises, evening primrose oil (EPO) has only recently been used as medicine. European settlers took the root back to England and Germany, where it was eaten as food. Evening primrose oil is found in the plant\’s seeds and is high in the essential fatty acid gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). Essential fatty acids – such as omega-6, found in EPO, and omega-3, found in fish oil – are used as building blocks for a number of molecules in the body. http://www.medicinenet.com/evening_primrose_oil-oral/article.htm

Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by pain in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons; fatigue, and multiple tender points on the body. While no one knows what causes fibromyalgia, there is evidence that people with the condition may be more sensitive to pain because something is wrong with the body\’s usual pain perception processes. More women than men have fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia, while different for everyone who has it, tends to come and go throughout life. http://www.fibromyalgia.net/

Flaxseed oil

Flaxseed oil comes from the seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum, L.). Flaxseed oil contains both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are needed for health. Flaxseed oil contains the essential fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which the body converts into eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil. http://www.organicsaustraliaonline.com.au/category323_1.htm

Food allergy

A food allergy occurs when the body\’s immune system reacts to otherwise harmless substances in certain foods. This is different from a food intolerance, which does not involve the immune system. About 25{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} of people believe they are allergic to certain foods. However, only 4 – 8{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} of children and 2{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} of adults have diagnosed food allergies. While most food allergies are mild, in some cases they can cause anaphylactic shock, a serious, sometimes life threatening reaction. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001820/

Food poisoning

Food poisoning Introduction: Food poisoning occurs when you eat food contaminated with bacteria or other toxins. Symptoms include diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach cramps, and generally start 4 – 36 hours after eating contaminated food. http://www.emedicinehealth.com/food_poisoning/article_em.htm

Gallbladder disease

The gallbladder is a sac located under the liver. It stores and concentrates bile produced in the liver. Bile aids in the digestion of fats, and is released from the gallbladder into the upper small intestine (duodenum) in response to food, especially fats. http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/diseases/facts/gallbladderdisease.htm

Garlic

Garlic has been used as both food and medicine in many cultures for thousands of years, dating back to when the Egyptian pyramids were built. In early 18 th -century France, gravediggers drank a concoction of crushed garlic in wine they believed would protect them from the plague that killed many people in Europe. http://www.garlic-central.com/garlic-health.html

Gastritis

Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach lining. Many things can cause gastritis. Most often the cause is infection with the same bacteria – Helicobacter pylori – that causes stomach ulcers. An autoimmune disorder, a backup of bile into the stomach, or long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen can also cause gastritis. http://www.emedicinehealth.com/gastritis/article_em.htm

Gastroesophageal reflux disease

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition in which contents of the stomach or small intestine repeatedly move back up into the esophagus (the tube connecting the throat to the stomach). This backwards movement is called reflux. Reflux causes heartburn, but although most people have heartburn at some point in their lives, persistent reflux and severe heartburn may mean you have GERD. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000265.htm

German chamomile

Chamomile is one of the most popular herbs in the Western world. There are two plants known as chamomile: the more popular German chamomile (Matricaria recutita) and Roman, or English, chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile). http://www.altnature.com/gallery/chamomile.htm

Ginger

Ginger – the underground stem, or rhizome, of the plant Zingiber officinale – has been used as a medicine in Asian, Indian, and Arabic herbal traditions since ancient times. http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/ginger-000246.htm

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a slowly progressing disease that causes damage to the eye\’s optic nerve and can result in blindness. http://www.medicinenet.com/glaucoma/article.htm

Glucosamine

Glucosamine, which is produced naturally in the body, plays a key role in building cartilage, the tough connective tissue that cushions the joints. A number of scientific studies suggest that glucosamine may be an effective treatment for osteoarthritis (OA). Osteoarthritis is a type of arthritis that occurs when cartilage breaks down and is lost, either due to injury or to normal wear and tear. It commonly occurs as people age. In some studies, glucosamine supplements have decreased the joint pain of OA. http://altmedicine.about.com/cs/herbsvitaminsek/a/Glucosamine.htm

Heart Failure

Heart failure (or congestive heart failure) doesn’t mean your heart has failed or stopped beating. It means that your heart, which is a muscle that pumps blood to all parts of your body, is not working as well as it should be and can’t pump as much blood as your body needs. As your heart\’s pumping action lessens, blood may back up in your lungs, liver, or legs. This can cause shortness of breath, leg swelling (called edema), and other problems. In addition, organs in your body may not get the oxygen and nutrients they need, meaning that they also can’t function properly. http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/dci/Diseases/Hf/HF_WhatIs.html

Heat exhaustion

Heat exhaustion occurs when your body gets too hot. The hypothalamus, the part of the brain that controls thirst and hunger, also controls the body\’s core temperature. Normally, the body cools itself by sweating. But if you are exposed to high temperatures for a long time (working outdoors in the summer, for example) and don\’t replace the fluids you lose, the body systems that regulate temperature become overwhelmed. As a result, your body produces more heat than it can release. http://www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/bhcv2/bhcarticles.nsf/pages/Heat_stress_and_heat-related_illness

Hemophilia

Hemophilia is an inherited disease in which your blood does not clot. People with hemophilia lack or have low levels of one of two blood-clotting substances, known as factor VIII and factor IX. As a result, they may bleed for a long time after an injury. They may also experience internal bleeding, especially in the joints. There are two types of hemophilia – type A and type B. Hemophilia is the most common inherited bleeding disorder. About 17,000 people in the U.S. have the condition. http://www.haemophilia.org.au/

Hemorrhoids

Those that are just inside the anus or lower rectum (internal) and those that are outside the opening to the anus (external). You can have both at the same time. Internal hemorrhoids usually don\’t cause pain or discomfort, while external hemorrhoids often do. http://www.emedicinehealth.com/hemorrhoids/article_em.htm

Herbal medicine

Herbal medicine – also called botanical medicine or phytomedicine – refers to using a plant\’s seeds, berries, roots, leaves, bark, or flowers for medicinal purposes. Herbalism has a long tradition of use outside of conventional medicine. It is becoming more mainstream as improvements in analysis and quality control along with advances in clinical research show the value of herbal medicine in the treating and preventing disease. http://www.naturaltherapypages.com.au/natural_medicine/Herbal_Medicine

Infantile colic

Colicky babies cry constantly and hard at about the same time each day at least 3 days a week, but they are otherwise healthy. Often, nothing you do seems to help them feel better. Although colic can be upsetting for both you and your baby, it won’t last too long. It usually begins at about 2 weeks of age and goes away by the fourth month. About one in five babies develops colic. It is more common in boys and in firstborn children. http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/infantile-colic-000094.htm

Influenza

Influenza, or \”flu,\” is a caused by a virus infecting the respiratory system (nose, throat, bronchial tubes, lungs). Flu symptoms are usually more severe than those of the common cold and are more likely to affect other parts of your body. Flu also tends to come on suddenly, while colds can take a while to develop. Flu is very contagious, spreading easily from one person to the next. Most people with healthy immune systems will get over the flu within two weeks, but young children, senior adults, and people with chronic illnesses are more likely to develop complications such as pneumonia. http://www.healthinsite.gov.au/topics/Influenza

Insomnia

Insomnia is defined as difficulty initiating, or maintaining sleep at least 3 nights per week, in addition to complaints of sleep related daytime impairment. Sufficient and restful sleep is a human necessity. The average adult needs slightly more than 8 hours of sleep a day, but only 35{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} of American adults consistently get this amount of rest. People with insomnia tend to experience one or more of the following sleep disturbances: Difficulty falling asleep at night Waking too early in the morning Waking frequently throughout the night Sleep that is chronically nonrestorative or poor Insomnia may stem from a disruption of the body\’s circadian rhythm, an internal clock that governs the timing of hormone production, sleep, body temperature, and other functions. http://www.insomniacauses.com.au/

Kidney stones

Kidney stones are a painful disorder of the urinary tract, affecting about 10{af9a9c910b239e191e5a87722d134d86b3f79391797a199b5ae53d5ebf9d72c7} of Americans. Stones occur 4 times more often in men than in women. The pain of having a stone has been compared to that of childbirth. The stones grow slowly over several months or years and are made of hard deposits of various minerals, including calcium, uric acid, and oxalate. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001493/

Lactobacillus acidophilus

Lactobacillus acidophilus (L. acidophilus) is the most commonly used probiotic, or \”friendly\” bacteria. Many healthy bacteria live in the intestines and vagina, where they protect against \”bad\” bacteria that can cause disease. They do this is a couple of ways: for example, when L. acidophilus breaks down food in the intestine, several substances are formed (such as lactic acid and hydrogen peroxide) that create an unfriendly environment for “bad” bacteria. http://www.medicinenet.com/lactobacillus_acidophilus-oral/article.htm

Laxatives – lubricant laxatives

Laxatives – lubricant laxatives Medications: Mineral Oil Depletions: Beta-Carotene This nutrient is converted to vitamin A by the body, therefore, deficiency symptoms are the same as those of vitamin A. The earliest symptom is night blindness. Prolonged deficiency leads to more advanced changes in eye tissue. Other potential signs of mild to moderate deficiency include rough, dry skin, loss of appetite, loss of hair luster, brittle nails, joint pain, and possibly increased susceptibility to infection. http://familydoctor.org/online/famdocen/home/otc-center/otc-medicines/861.html

Laxatives – stimulant laxatives

Laxatives – stimulant laxatives Medications: Bisacodyl (Dulcolax) Depletions: Potassium Symptoms of deficiency include loss of appetite, nausea, drowsiness, feelings of apprehension, excessive thirst, irrational behavior, fatigue, muscle pain and weakness (usually of the lower limbs); severe cases may lead to irregular heartbeat. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a601112.html

Leukemia

Leukemia is a type of cancer in which the body produces large numbers of abnormal (usually white) blood cells. About 28,500 new cases of leukemia are diagnosed each year. There are several types of leukemia, grouped as either acute (the diseases progresses rapidly) or chronic (the diseases progresses slowly). http://www.medicalonline.com.au/medical/cancer/leukemia.htm
