Spotlight On: 3 Steps to Recognize A Stroke & ICE & More
------------------------------------------------------------
After discovering that a group of non-medical volunteers could identify facial weakness, arm weakness and speech problems, researchers urged the general public to learn the three questions.
They presented their conclusions at the American Stroke Association's annual meeting last February. Widespread use of this test could result in prompt diagnosis and treatment of the stroke and prevent brain damage.
If a neurologist can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he/she can totally reverse the effects of a stroke. The trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed and getting to the patient within 3 hours.
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify.
Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster.
The stroke victim may suffer brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
- Ask the individual to Smile.
- Ask him or her to Raise Both Arms.
- Ask the person to Speak A Simple Sentence Coherently Even something so simple as “The grass is green.”
If he or she has trouble with any of these tasks, call 911 immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.
So, Take your computer, and open your word processing program.
- Type the Three questions
- Print the paper
- Tape it on your fridge.
You may also want to write it on a note card, and put that card in your wallet.
Speaking of potentially lifesaving things to carry on you, there is a new code that was recently developed. Kind of redundant I know, if it wasn't recently developed, then it wouldn't be new. So I guess this was brought to you by your department of redundancy department.
Onward.
If you are ever involved in an emergency and the paramedic finds your cell phone, who do they call?
Who does the hospital call?
Do they just go down the list of numbers?
“Hello Joe... I have a Melinda Stewart here”
“Who is this?...Click”
Or do they call someone who is your contact in case emergency (ICE).
If they are to call your contact(s) in case of emergency, how do they find them?
ESP?
Start dialing for dollars?
Nope! Bob Brotchie, a British paramedic is credited with coming up with a really simple ingenious way to identify your contact people. It has spread around the world to paramedics.
Put your contact(s) on ICE.
ICE is an acronym that stands for “In Case of Emergency.”
After the London bombings, emergency workers had no idea which of the many phone numbers listed in cell phones of the injured and dead should be called.
What was come up with is to insert the word “ICE” before the people you'd like called in case of an emergency.
That way, paramedics and other emergency workers will know whom to call.
For example, let's say you want Brian Jones, and Marie Zuealo to be called if there is an emergency. Your cell phone entries might be: ICE-Brian Jones and ICE-Marie Zuealo.
Better yet, put ICE before more than one name in your cell phone in case the first person doesn't answer right away. You can even use ICE1, ICE2, ICE3, etc to let the paramedic know the order you'd like the ICE people called.
Taking our example above Your cell phone entries might be:
ICE1-Brian Jones and
ICE2-Marie Zuealo.
Most paramedics now know what ICE means and they look for it. This helps them save time, and your loved ones are contacted more quickly.

I mentioned Prostate problems above. Here is some prostate cancer news.
MADISON, Wis.--Pomegranate juice appears to have preventive and therapeutic effects on prostate cancer, according to an October 2005 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (102, 41:14813-14818, 2005). Researchers from the University of Wisconsin evaluated the anti-proliferative and proapoptotic properties of pomegranate fruit extract in mouse skin using human prostate cancer cells.
The study results found the treatment of Pomegranate Fruit Extract on highly aggressive human prostate cancer cells resulted in a dose- dependent inhibition of cell growth/cell viability and induction of cancer cell apoptosis (cells committing suicide). Researchers concluded, “Pomegranate juice may have cancer-chemopreventive as well as cancer-chemotherapeutic effects against prostate cancer in humans.”
Prostate cancer is either not aggressive (slow moving) which is the vast majority of cases. Or it is very fast moving and spreads throughout the body quickly. The quick spreading type is the one most to be feared.
As a side not, along with the “Smarter Prostate Formula” we are going to be coming out with a 4 book series on the Prostate.
Areas covered are:
What Every Man Should Know About His Prostate -
About 25 pages. Gives you background on your prostate, what it does, three different ailments that can afflict your prostate. How your prostate works. Why it is necessary, etc. The basics of taking care of it.
Another publication in the series is.
What Every Man Should Know About Prostate Cancer -
About 75 pages. Goes into detail of what scientists believe causes prostate cancer, how to potentially avoid it. Symptoms telling you if you should be worried. And if you develop prostate cancer should you worry. It also goes into great depths of ALL the treatments for prostate cancer.
This covers Everything! From Surgery - and there are a bunch of surgical options - to laser, to sticking tubes where you don't want them to be, to radio-active implants, to X-ray and more. This in addition to the Natural so called “Complementary Alternative Medicine” that the AMA and FDA and their cohorts give ZERO credence to, but are being used successfully all over Europe, and Japan in treatment and prevention.
The Prostate Cancer publication goes more into depth of the typical so called “Alternative”, or “Natural” or “holistic” treatment than the information you would get from a US physician.
Another publication in the series is
Enlarged Prostate (Enlarged Prostate aka Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), What it is and How to Banish Symptoms -
About 55 pages. Goes into what an enlarged prostate is, options for treating it, and how to possibly avoid it. This publication also goes into depth on "Conventional" USA medical treatments from surgery to prescription drugs. This in addition to Natural so called “Complementary Alternative Medicine” that the AMA and FDA and their cohorts give ZERO credence to, but are being used successfully all over Europe, and Japan in treatment and prevention.
And Finally
How You Can Create Natural Prostate Health -
This publication goes into great depth on a wide variety of herbs, herbal treatments and potions, phytomedicines, lifestyle issues, foods that can heal your prostate, and those to avoid, in addition to some easy to make good tasting “Prostate Friendly” recipes.
It also deals with acupuncture, reflexology, dealing with stress, herbs to enhance sex even while you are experiencing prostate problems, aphrodisiacs, meditation, and in depth summaries of various CAM treatments.
Once they are completed, they will be for sale. While they are not hundreds of pages long, they don't need to be. There was a ton of research put into them, and only the golden nuggets of information were pulled out and put into these publications. “No fluff, all stuff.”
They are expected to sell to the general public for $49.00 ea, and the entire series for $97.00
But as readers you will get a heavy discount. If you are interested, let me know and I can send you more details.

High-Sugar Diet Linked to Inflammation, Diabetes NUTHETAL, Germany--High consumption of refined sugar may promote inflammation and development of Type II diabetes, according to new research published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (82, 3:675-84, 2005).
Researchers recruited subjects from the Nurses' Health Studies I and II for a nested case-control study on 656 women with confirmed Type II diabetes and 694 controls. They associated a dietary pattern including frequent consumption of sugar-sweetened soft drinks, refined grains, diet soft drinks and processed meat; and infrequent intake of wine, coffee, and cruciferous (Cruciferous Vegetables: Sounds dangerous...what are they? Broccoli, Cauliflower, Kale, Cabbage, and Brussels sprouts.)and yellow vegetables, with an increased risk of Type II diabetes. The researchers concluded the dietary pattern identified in the study may increase chronic inflammation and raise the risk of developing Type II diabetes.
Additionally, not mentioned in the study is that researchers in other studies have found that Cruciferous Vegetables can help your body to fight off cancer, and refined sugar feeds cancer.
