We’ve all had muscle pain in our backs from time to time, but if that minor pain becomes severe or even permanent, we can begin to worry.  While minor causes can bring about some major pain, there are many causes of back pain that are more severe and need to be treated by a doctor.  Most back pain is simply muscle pain from too much strenuous activity, or just overstressing yourself.

Chronic back pain is actually fairly common and doesn’t necessarily mean there’s a serious problem.  Often it can be caused by improper posture, a poorly adjusted chair, or a bed that isn’t supportive enough.  While this kind of pain isn’t serious in and of itself, it can cause serious psychological and physical problems, especially if it keeps you from sleeping. 

Sometimes, however, back pain is a sign of a more serious condition and shouldn’t be ignored.  Here are a few more serious problems that might be causing your back pain.

Did you know that your knees hold three times your weight? With each step the pressure is triple. Over time, this can lead to problems with the cartilage, bursa sacs and bones of your knee joint.

There are ways that you can prevent knee pain from becoming a part of your life.

Let's beging with a little background on the knee and other joints. The bones of the joints have cartilage on the ends. This prevents the bone from being worn down. There are also fluid filled sacs that help the joint to move without pain. The fluid cushions the joints. When that fluid is gone or the cartilage is worn down, then the bones can rub against bone and you have knee pain.

So what can you do to avoid this pain?  Here are a few suggestions to keep your knees healthy.

What exactly is vitamin B12 and why do we need it?

Vitamin B12 is a nutrient that is found in our food and we need it to keep our nerve cells healthy and to keep our red blood cells at optimum efficiency. It is also extremely important for proper digestion; in fact, our stomach acids grab the B12 from food and mix it with IF, which is then easily absorbed by the intestinal tract.

If you have a vitamin B12 deficiency, you are likely to feel tired, lightheaded, and weak. You're gums may bleed and you will probably experience digestion problems such as diarrhea. You may feel tingling in your hands or feet, get out of breath easily, hear a ringing sound in your ears, have chest tightness, and develop neurological symptoms such as forgetfulness, a lack of ability to focus, and becoming easily confused.
