Empowering Women, Empowering the World

Although education is considered a basic human right, about two thirds of the world’s illiterate adults population, which is approximately 520 million, consists of women. These 250 million uneducated women do not even know how to read and write and thus, gone is the chance of them ever going to institutions like devry university to study for a collegiate course.

The United Nations has been particularly concerned with women’s education as educated women and mothers are more inclined to produce improved nutrition, health and education in the family. The effect that educated mothers have in the family would also have a ripple effect on the economy. Johnnetta Cole of Spellman College once said that when you educate a man, you educate an individual, when you educate a woman, you educate a nation. This statement is true, as a woman’s education or her lack of education has a profound impact not only on her own life but also on her family, especially her children, and ultimately, on the world.

Mothers are usually the first teachers of their children. It is through mothers that children first learn how to be affectionate, responsible, and conscientious. It is also usually through mothers that children learn the alphabet, how to count and how to recognize things. Thus, an educated and knowledgeable mother would also mean educated and knowledgeable future citizens of an economy.

Herbs for Curing Rheumatoid Arthritis

RA or rheumatoid arthritis refers to an autoimmune medical condition wherein the bones, joints and other organ systems in the body are affected. This is a serious illness as it can lead to damage in tissues when the body’s immune system mistakes the body’s own tissues as foreign and attacks them in an attempt to fight possible illnesses. Many health experts and medical practitioners are now turning to herbs to treat rheumatoid arthritis especially now that the world is more aware of the facts about herbs and uses.

Many herbs are anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidants in nature and most of them are used in treating the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. Although supplements and herbs used in treating RA are all natural, there is a possibility that they can become potent and may interact with prescription drugs. Natural or not, it is still highly advisable that an RA patient discuss the matter of adding or subtracting any medication from their treatment plan with their health care provider. It is wrong to assume that herbs are naturally safe to use and are free of any side effects.

Cat’s claw, evening primrose, boswellia, bogbean, curcurmin, licorice, sesame seed oil, white poplar, oregano, celery, sarsaparilla, feverfew, ginger, angelica, wintergreen, honeysuckle, galangal and wild yam are only some of the herbs considered helpful in treating the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
