Arthritis Cure - Search For Truth 2006-10-03 00:28:00 When doctors (specialists of arthritis) condemned her existence to a lifelong suffering of pain and increasing doses of harmful and addictive drugs, saying, "Bear with it, there is no cure for arthritis ...you will be in a wheelchair within five years," Margie did not accept their verdict. She figured out all by herself, "There is a cause for arthritis and if there is a cause, then there must be a remedy . . . . If the doctors did not know anything about it, it did not mean there was no remedy. And with this optimistic rational, she charged into the pathway of "Search
for Truth
".
Margie tells us the story of her "Painful Odyssey through the Medic-World," and her pleasant adventures into the world of knowledge of nutrition and optimum health. Needless to say, she cured her arthritis..."THE INCURABLE DISEASE." The Medical Establishment will call this "spontaneous remission," yet Margie can turn her arthritis on and off to the tune of a melody. She has learned which foods trigger her art Read more:Arthritis
High blood pressure? Don't be fooled by the new "guidelines" 2006-10-29 16:00:00 You have probably seen in the news the new "guidelines" for determining a healthy level of blood pressure. It used to be that 120/80 was considered optimal, 120 - 129/80-84 was normal and 130 - 139/85-89 was high normal. If your readings were over 140/90 you were considered to be at Stage 1 which was referred to as mild hypertension. Stages 2, 3 and 4 went up in various increments and they reflected increasing degrees of severity of hypertension.
But, this is no longer the case! Based on new USA guidelines if your blood pressure is in the "normal" range with a systolic pressure anything above 120 you are now considered to be prehypertensive and should according to the new guidelines be taking "two or more hypertensive medications to achieve goal pressure".
So if you were previously healthy before this recent announcement with a systolic blood pressure between 120 and 140 I am sorry to say that you along with 45 million other Americans are no longer considered to be healthy! In Read more:fooled

Drug vs. Supplement Dangers 2006-11-09 17:24:00 The marketing budget alone of the drug companies is 50% greater than the total retail sales for every vitamin, mineral, or herbal product sold in the United States. and:
If we put these statistics into monetary figures it is estimated that the cost of drug-related illness and mortality is likely now over $200 billion annually. To put this dollar amount into perspective this amount is more than the total cost of treating diabetes or heart disease in the United States...
It amazes me that adverse reactions (ADRs) to prescription drugs are estimated to kill over 106,000 Americans every year (These sobering statistics do not include the number of ADRs that occur outside the hospital or the estimated 350,000 ADRs that occur in U.S. nursing homes each year, yet all it seems that the media is interested in is inaccurately portraying the dietary supplement industry as dangerous and "unregulated." I think a little perspective is in order.......

"Do Calcium Pills Work?" 2007-02-05 20:07:00 Please Take Heed of This Message!
Any woman who has been faithfully swallowing her daily calcium supplements in hopes of staving off osteoporosis and colorectal cancer can be forgiven for being confused by news last week that TWO major studies found that the pills provide little or NO benefits against either condition.
A study of more than 36,000 healthy postmenopausal women determined that taking a standard calcium-and vitamins D supplement for 7 YEARS had No significant effect for most of them on preventing fractures in the spine, arms and hips, although it did lead to a 1% improvement in hip-bone density.
The message you should get from this is Calcium
and Vitamin d supplements are no magic bullets, but if you're going to try to take them, try to take them every day.
*** Personal note from Margie…
These women where taking calcium in powder form and according to research, when taking calcium in powder or capsule or tablet form…their bodied can only absorb about 10% and the rest
Billion Dollar Hoax - Part IV - The Real Facts About Your Pills & Tablets 2006-09-23 04:02:00 If your home is like most, your cupboard is filled with mineral and vitamin pills or tablets. Unfortunately, the majority of these products were made in the exact opposite fashion appropriate for the body. In fact, their engineering is specifically designed for bottom dollar profit, not better health!To understand this dilemma, let’s you and I do a quick exercise. Let’s suppose we decide to go into business together. In fact, we decide to go into the traditional supplement business to sell tablets and pills.Well, let’s get at it!First off, let’s pick a product how about a calcium supplement? Next we need raw materials to make the product with. Since we are in business our goal is to turn a profit, right? So we want to buy low cost raw materials. How about the number 1 used ingredient in most calcium supplements and fortunately it’s one of the cheapest you can find too, calcium carbonate, the blackboard chalk we talked about earlier!Second, we need machines to put the product Read more:Dollar

The Billion Dollar Hoax – Part III - Chickens Have Gizzards, Not You! 2006-09-15 16:28:00 Now let’s address Solubility.If you think about visiting the physician in an emergency situation, the drugs and medicines used are started immediately, or intravenously. When injecting medicine into the blood, it is delivered in an aqueous or water-soluble form. This is done because it meets the body’s requirement for proper delivery to all organs, tissues, and cells. As stated from the textbook Pharmaceutical Dosage: “Drugs or nutrients administered in solution are absorbed much more rapidly than those administered in solid form, since the process of (digestion) is not required.” In applying this to nutritional supplements, the same logical thought process can be used. As further stated in Pharmaceutical Dosage: “…water-soluble solutions are in a form most conducive for absorption into the bloodstream…”When applying this specifically to mineral supplements it is especially important, since minerals are found naturally as metallic compounds or simply put ROCKS.Rocks b Read more:Dollar

The Billion Dollar Hoax - Part II - The Billion Dollar Hoax 2006-09-01 19:12:00 Now, the nutrition industry has known for years that the body could not make minerals on its own, and it came to realize that nature was not being given the chance to produce mineral rich foods. This, combined with knowledge of Americas’ bad eating habits, set the stage for our next topic…..The Billion Dollar
Hoax.Over the last several decades, the nutrition industry has developed a real fast ball.They knew nutrient deficient foods were coming to us from our crop land. They realized processing was robbing us of any trace minerals that could be found and finally, they knew we were cooking any remaining nutrients right out of our food.Now, go ahead and add aging baby boomers, and you’ve set the stage for the creation of a multibillion dollar industry Mineral Supplements.Unfortunately, the majority of these supplements are not doing to your body what you believe or hoped and in fact, can result in toxic accumulation while having devastating defects on your health.To understand the i
The Billion Dollar Hoax - Part I - What Really Causes Disease? 2006-08-25 20:39:00 Everywhere you turn you hear or see the evidence of disease in our society. Heart disease, autoimmune disease, bone disease, gum disease. What is with this word “disease”? It’s actually become a common phrase, a normal word in our everyday vocabulary. As common as it is, there’s seems to be a lack of understanding on what disease really means what actually causes it.Is it stress? Is our environment making us sick? If someone could just develop the right immunizations, would we be disease free? Can we blame disease on lack of sleep, a virus, or something we’ve inherited?The information on this book is intended to explain some simple concepts that seem to be overlooked, forgotten, or intentionally neglected in today’s world of health awareness. This information may shock, or even anger you. But it is a message that must be heard.What I am now about to share with you, will forever change your understanding of what causes disease.So let’s begin…but first, the following info Read more:Dollar
Nutrient Dense Food? ... What the heck is that? 2006-08-23 22:53:00 In the next few minutes you are going to hear the story of nutrient dense foods and how this information can change your life.I think you are going to love the story of nutrient dense foods for several reasons.1. It is interesting.2. It will change the way you think about every bite of food you consume for the rest of your life....in a positive way.3. It will help you become healthier, live longer and have more energy.4. It will help you reach your weight goals...and much more!OK, let's get started. The easiest way for me to explain what nutrient dense food is all about is to first talk about a food that we are all very familiar with, "bread."Most of us eat bread on a regular basis. There are many, many varieties of bread, but for now I am only going to talk about 2 varieties....white bread, and whole wheat, (dark) bread.First, let me give you a little history on white bread. Do you know why white bread came into existence?In the days of our grandparents, farmers grew vegetables, grai
Why Vitamins, Minerals And Antioxidants Are Vital To Maintain Vigorous Health. 2006-08-16 18:37:00 BLOOD COMPONENTSRed blood cells carry oxygen around the body and supply individual cells with the life giving element. They live for only 90 days and over a 12-week period the whole blood supply is completely renewed and replaced. White blood cells are the basis for the immune system and require nutrients to perform their significant function of attacking and destroying invading bacteria and viruses which otherwise would cause illness or death of the biological system. Plasma is the liquid phase of blood, which carries red cells and white cells throughout the body and provides nutrients such as vitamins and minerals to those cells as well as those required by all of the cells exposed to the circulatory system.CHEMISTRYThere are three ways that materials are dissolved in liquids for introduction into our bodies.The first is called an emulsion. An emulsion can best be explained as a mixture of oil and water. In order to make them mix one must break the oil part into very fine bubbles and Read more:Vitamins

Fluoride and How It Affects the IQ of our children. 2007-04-11 22:28:00 The practice of dumping toxic-waste fluorosilicates into public water supplies in the name of fighting tooth decay has just received another damper. According to a recently released Chinese study, there is a clear relation between fluoride levels in the water that is consumed by a population and low Intelligence quotient scores of children who do the consuming.I wonder why there is a generalized push to introduce fluoridation in some countries.When will the authorities that are supposed to protect our health finally wake up to the fact that they are doing us a disservice by following big money contributions from chemical companies and their manipulated "science" in making decisions on important health matters?From Fluoride

The Importance of Enzymes 2007-07-23 13:12:00 Even vitamins, minerals, and hormones cannot do their jobs without enzymes. They are the catalysts, the dynamic power that gives us our ability to function at the highest level of good health.Our bodies cannot exist without enzymes.I will be talking about digestive plant enzymes. For proper digestion to happen, 4 major enzymes are required. AmylaseAmylase aids the digestion of carbohydrates and starches. (Fruit, vegetables, pasta, and bread)ProteaseProtease enzymes digest proteins (red meats, fowl, fish, and nuts. If improperly digested, protein putrefies in the system, causing indigestion and toxicity.LipaseLipase breaks down fats and assists in balancing fatty acids. Fats not thoroughly digested turn rancid and create pungent odors and poor cholesterol balance.Cellulase Cellulase breaks down cellulose (the fiber found in vegetables and other plant materials) however; the body does not produce cellulase. Undigested fiber leaves a wax like residue in the small intestine and adds to Read more:Enzymes
An Arthritis Drug Warning 2007-07-18 11:58:00 Before I overcame my arthritis naturally, I spent 43 years dreading every day, taking untold amounts of drugs and then fearing the dangerous side effects they would cause.Please do your due diligence and research each and every drug you are taking or about to take. The following is an ad, which I read in a health magazine for HUMIRA and I want to share it with you. *** Beginning of Ad *** Shows a beautiful young woman, smiling… “You’re doing all you can about your rheumatoid arthritis” BUT IS YOUR TREATMENT? Important safety information about HUMRA. It is approved for reducing the signs and symptoms, slowing the progression of joint damage, and improving physical function in adult patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have not responded well to other RA medicines. Called DMARDs (disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs) suca as methotrexate, Humra can be used alone or with methotrexate or other DMARDs. Do not start taking Humira if you have any type of infecti Read more:Arthritis
