Progress in the planned culling of 400,000 poultry following recent outbreaks of bird flu in the state of Bengal in India are being hampered by farmers and poultry owners reluctant to co-operate with animal husbandry teams sent to carry out the task.According to a Reuters news agency photographer, some villagers at the centre of the outbreak said their ducks and chickens were not infected and were refusing to hand them over.

It is Possible to Recover from Parkinson's Disease
What happens when you are diagnosed with Parkinson's disease? You are told there is good news and bad news.
The good news is that you will not die from Parkinson's anytime soon. The bad news is that you will get progressively worse each year.
John Coleman, a naturopath doctor from Australia, says the belief that anyone who has been diagnosed with Parkinson's will inevitably get worse is dead wrong. Why does he challenge this conventional "wisdom"?
John Coleman was diagnosed with Stage IV Parkinson's Disease in 1995. He had all the major symptoms of Parkinson's -
muscular rigidity
tremors
difficulty walking
frozen face
muscle weakness
insomnia
cognitive impairment
fatigue
illegible handwriting
poor coordination
freezing
spasms
gastric reflux
loss of libido
You name it. He had it. Three and a half years later John Coleman was symptom free.
John Coleman, ND, says if he can recover, anyone can recover. Over the past decade he has helped countless individuals in Australia find relief from the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Some of his clients have now also fully recovered.
Is it easy to recover from Parkinson's? Certainly not.
John Coleman ND is the first to say there is no cure for Parkinson's. No magic "pill" exists that permanently relieves the symptoms of Parkinson's and ultimately "cures" the disease. If you are hoping for a magic bullet you might as well give up looking.
The good news is that recovery is possible. The body knows how to heal itself. It just needs a little help remembering how. Recovery evolves over time ever so gently as your body returns to hormonal balance and harmony.
John Coleman initially experimented with a variety of modalities to heal his own Parkinson's. He was so sick he was willing to try anything. Some of the therapies he pursued were not effective. Others did succeed in helping him get better.
What helped to relieve his symptoms? A variety of factors helped him recover. Their combined effect turned out to be powerful.
Exercise. The human body was built to be physically active. Use it or lose it.
Eat well to get well. Neurons need good nourishment to heal.
Hydrate cells. People with Parkinson's are chronically dehydrated. Dehydration contributes to constiptation.
Release trauma. John Coleman found that persons with Parkinson's have experienced high stress or trauma at some time during the first fifteen years of their life. The trauma and stress that is physically trapped in the cells and tissues needs to be released through energy healing, Bowen therapy or cranio sacral therapy or other bodywork modalities.
Laugh. Laughter manufactures the hormones the body desperately needs to maintain hormonal balance. Laughter does not cost anything. It is also fun.
Reduce exposure to toxins. Many people are not aware that many common household detergents and cleaning agents create neurological damage.
Meditate. Meditation lowers the level of hormones such as adrenaline. Hormones like adrenaline are a key hormone implicated in the onset of Parkinson's.
John Coleman has shown by his own example that relief from the symptoms of Parkinson's is possible. The miracle of full recovery is even possible.
The road to recovery is not quick or simple. There is no magic cure. Recovery requires understanding, time, and the will to get well.
Keep the faith. Begin taking care of your body. Give your body time to heal. Miracles do happen.

Reversing the Symptoms of Heart Disease for a Long Healthy Life
There are numerous diseases that affect the heart. Among the most common are coronary heart disease, heart failure, congenital heart disease, hypertension, heart valve problems, heart arrhythmias and heart infections. These all fall under the term "heart disease."
Heart disease occurs for a variety of reasons, including genetics, sedentary lifestyles, smoking, diabetes, clogged arteries and hypertension. Fortunately, there are a number of lifestyle behaviors you can adopt to help you avoid the pitfalls of heart disease. The two most important elements are eating a heart-healthy diet and getting regular exercise.
The cornerstone to a heart-healthy diet is replacing foods high in saturated fats with healthier alternatives such as fruits, vegetables, low-fat milk and dairy products, poultry and fish. Eating healthier alternatives can help to lower your LDL (bad) cholesterol level and raise your HDL (good) cholesterol level. Both are significant in being heart-healthy.
Regular physical activity also helps to keep your good cholesterol higher and your bad cholesterol lower. Even a small amount of daily exercise can make a big difference to your heart.
Smoking is very damaging to the heart, and maintaining a healthy weight and a reasonable level of alcohol consumption are very important as well.
Heart disease may offer no symptoms during the early stages. Often the first symptom is a pain or discomfort in the chest (called angina pectoris), which can be brought on by physical exertion and relieved by rest. Any sort of chest pain calls for medical attention right away.
If you are diagnosed with heart disease, lowering your cholesterol level and adding adequate levels of exercise to your daily routine, combined with medication your doctor will prescribe, can help you live a long and healthy life. The key to success is understanding that your daily activities control the progress of the disease, and therefore making heart-healthy choices is vital.
So, what steps can you take to make it easier to identify and manage heart disease? Keep a journal of any symptom that you may encounter. For instance, when you measure your cholesterol levels, make a note in a journal. Or when you eat certain foods or participate in certain activities, make a note of the results -- how do you feel? Then on a regular basis keep track of any changes in these symptoms.
Once a heart-healthy diet, daily exercise regimen, and course of treatment has been prescribed for you, keep another journal in which you describe the results. Have the symptoms improved? Are they worse?
If you are taking medication for your heart, keep a record of what you take and when. Is it helping the symptoms? Are there any side effects? Keep track of when side effects occur and how severe they are. Having this information handy will help your doctor prescribe the treatment that best addresses your overall health.
Setting up journals like the ones described here is easy to do. You can use a paper worksheet, a computer word processing program, or even a spreadsheet program like Excel.
You owe it to yourself to take an active role in managing your own health. Heart disease can be deadly. However with proper management, it can be controlled and in many cases even reversed. You need to use every tool at your disposal to make sure you get the best health care possible.
