Have you ever addressed a health issue with dietary supplements or medical foods, and found that it didn’t really seem to help, or kept taking them hoping one day…. here is an article telling us why
Why Don’t Supplements Seem to Work?
To your Health!
Anyone who has watched a drug commercial on TV has heard the long list of possible side effects that goes along with taking the drug.
The only reason I can think that someone would still want to take a drug is that they either don’t believe it or have a gambler’s desire to play the odds.

Most of us have heard about the 1300s plague or Black Death, or Bubonic Plague. I didn’t know much about it so watched a special on TV. At the end of the show, they talked about how it was the microbe that created this problem, and that man’s deadliest enemy was the microbe. I thought that was a strange idea and wasn’t sure what they were selling except maybe “fear”.
Now, an interesting part of the show talked about how after 1/2 of the population was killed by the plague, that there was more food to go around and they even had luxury foods like fruit, vegetables and meat. What? Luxury foods? Yes, it seems that before the bubonic plague, the diet of most of the populace was grains. If you follow it back that was because there had been a famine earlier. Not enough food. Now what does that type of diet do to the immune system? If you read about the plague it affected the lymph glands. What was the cause of this epidemic?
I’m sure I can find out more about this, but seriously, although I know that some people claim that grains are good for you (mostly the people who grow and process grains) that sort of diet is not healthy. The immune system would be compromised. So, man’s deadliest enemy isn’t the microbe, but the fact that he allows himself to eat foods that would lower his immunity and become the effect of these microbes.

Have you ever been confused because the doctor says there is nothing wrong with you, yet you feel terrible? You know someone that had to have bypass surgery due to the fact that he had a lot of blockage? The procedure saved his life. But, why didn’t they catch it when it was 75% blockage of 50% or 30%.
A medical doctor will consider that a person is “healthy” if they don’t have a disease. Their tests are designed to find disease. This means that sometimes drastic measures need to be used to save a life.
What about health? Isn’t it better to keep healthy? Isn’t that the ultimate health insurance? What you eat counts. Getting exercise counts. What do you need to do?

I had a relative die from this disease. She spent 15 months fighting it through a lot of nausea, dizziness, etc. etc. etc. Besides the chemo, they had her on 12 different drugs and a local drug store version of B12. She was announced cancer free on New Years and by March, I thought she had really beat it and was ready to say – I guess this works. Okay, she was now in a wheelchair, but she was alive and sounded really good. Then her body crashed – how many chemicals can the body metabolize – and died shortly after.
Then I found out a friend had the same disease. Sigh. But instead of chemo she took off to Hungry for a group called “Hope Floats” I could go on about what a great treatment this is, but thought I’d just let my friend talk for herself and for them.

Sinusitis is an inflammation of the nasal sinuses.
A sinus is a cavity (air chamber) within the bone. These are four sets of open spaces within the bones of the skull. They are above the eyes (frontal sinuses), to either side of the nose inside the cheekbones (maxillary sinuses), behind the bridge of the nose (sphenoid sinuses) and in the upper nose (ethmoid sinuses).

People do have these symptoms and it is all because of a single nerve that can get compressed, pinched and eventually damaged. It has a name Meralgia paresthetica (also called Bernhardt Roth Syndrome) And quite often it is created by wearing skinny jeans. There are other reasons and its not just women. In fact, apparently men get it more often than women.

Seems like one of the big stressors lately is the Covid flu. The confusing reports that change and the fear of getting sick can really stress a person.
There is on thing that we know works on infections – a healthy immune system. I don’t hear this being promoted by the experts (and its been a year) but it seems the right way to go.
Here is something on stress and a link to our page on Immunity.
