LEE COUNTY, Fla.- A 15-year-old Southwest Florida teenager is defying the odds.
Matt Milligan, who has cerebral palsy, has not let his disability stand in his way.
Despite being born "blue, not breathing" as Milligan said, he's an active teen.
Milligan enjoys riding his bike with his brother.
His speech and fine motor skills have been affected, but they are not limiting.
When he was nine years old, his parents gave him an old 35 millimeter film
camera.
"That really inspired me and I just fell in love with the whole thing," he said.
His passion for photography was born.
Milligan sees the beauty in things that others overlook.
"These trees here, people might pass that up," Milligan said while pointing to some
old tree branches. "Those are just dead trees. I look at that and it's a potential
black and white photo."
His disability creates some minor hurdles for him. His hands and arms often
tremble.
He utilizes lenses with image stabilization and relies on his creativity to enhance
his abilities.
"If i'm shaking quite a bit, I'll have my parents put their hands below my elbows,"
he said. "It's like a tripod."
In April, Milligan fulfilled a lifelong dream--the Make a Wish Organization sent
him to National Geographic's headquarters in Washington D.C.
Milligan is also a published author and photographer click here
I want to say Congrats! to Matt Milligan and to keep on going

For Immediate Release "dr joel wallach"
San Diego, CA (04 January, 2012) --
Youngevity® Essential Life Sciences a wholly-owned subsidiary of AL International (JCOF-PK) and direct seller of lifestyle and nutritional products and gourmet healthy coffee, proudly announced that its founder, Dr. Joel D. Wallach, DVM, ND is the 2011 recipient of the Klaus Schwarz Commemorative Medal. This prestigious award, sponsored by the International Association of Bioinorganic Scientists, Inc. (IABS), recognizes the work of pioneers in the field of trace element research and is named after Klaus Schwarz (1914-1978), a leading trace element researcher best known for his discovery of the essentiality of selenium.
The IABS cited Wallach’s groundbreaking discovery of an animal model of cystic fibrosis, a disease that affects 70,000 people worldwide. In 1978, as a researcher at the Emory University Yerkes National Primate Center in Atlanta, Georgia, Wallach observed pancreatic lesions that were identical to those observed in human patients in the offspring of inadequately-fed rhesus monkeys. This suggested that cystic fibrosis—at the time believed to be a genetic disorder of humans only—could also be the result of selenium deficiency, and that some forms of cystic fibrosis might be preventable.
Selenium is an essential trace mineral that serves many functions in human physiology, including the synthesis of antioxidants (natural substances that neutralize free radical damage), and thyroid and immune function. It cannot be made by the human body but instead must be obtained through diet. Sources of selenium include nuts, cereals, meat, mushrooms, fish, and eggs, and dietary supplements.
“Dr. Wallach is honored for a discovery that is already benefitting many,” said Dr. Gerhard N. Schrauzer, PhD, MS, FACN, CNS, and IABS Founder and President. “The broader significance of his discovery three decades ago is only now beginning to be recognized. From a historical perspective, Dr. Wallach is to be regarded as one of the first practitioners, if not founders, of epigenetics, a new scientific discipline that investigates heritable alterations in gene expression.”
A detailed article on this year’s award was published in the December 2011 edition of the peer-reviewed scientific journal Biological Trace Element Research.

Most health solution today is because You must give your body all the raw materials it requires to maintain and renew itself in order to achieve healthful maximum potential. But those raw materials so vital to your health can be hard to find. Centuries of mining, farming, irrigation and acid rain have eroded life-giving minerals from our soil. These mineral-deficient soils are then used to grow and cultivate our food. Because of this, our food may be lacking in the essential minerals.
