What you should do instead of swine flu/vaccine..

The news media is fueling the fear based drive to protect yourself from the Swine Flu via vaccination but please, please, please do you research before submitting your family to this risky vaccination. I recently had the opportunity to listen to Dr. Russell Blaylock, M.D., board certified neurosurgeon, author and lecture. Dr. Blaylock is one of the most intelligent and well researched speakers he is also the author of my favorite book, Health and Nutrition Secrets That Can Save Your Life. Dr. Blaylock was one of the first neurosurgeons to utilize high-intensity nutritional supplementation in craniocerebral trauma patients, which met with great success. Dr. Blaylock has written and illustrated two other great books. Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills and Natural Strategies for Cancer Patients.

He says; "No one should take the swine flu vaccine–it is one of the most dangerous vaccines ever devised. It contains an immune adjuvant called squalene (MF-59) which has been shown to cause severe autoimmune disorders such as MS, rheumatoid arthritis and Lupus. This is the vaccine adjuvant that is strongly linked to the Gulf War syndrome, which killed over 10,000 soldiers and caused a 200% increase in the fatal disease ALS (Lou Gehreg disease). This virus H1N1 kills by causing a “cytokine storm”, which means that it cause the body’s immune system to overreact and that is why it is killing young people and is a mild disease in the elderly. (The elderly have weakened immune systems.) This vaccine is a very powerful immune stimulator and carries the real possibility of making the l ethality of the virus much greater.
One’s best protection is vitamin D3. One should take 5000 IU a day now and when the disease begins to spread increase the dose to 15,000 IU a day. Vitamin D3 modulates the immune reaction, reducing the chance of an overreaction and stimulates the body to produce what are called antimicrobial peptides, which are powerful killers of viruses that does not involve immunity. This is dose related, which means the higher the dose of vitamin D3 the better the protection. Fish oils also reduce immune overreaction. One teaspoon a day should be sufficient. For severe symptoms, one teaspoon twice a day. Antioxidants of various kinds also help–this includes, quercetin, curcumin, grapeseed extract, vitamin C and natural vitamin E. A good multivitamin/mineral is also essential. "

Please take these words to heart there are many things that can be done with less possiblity for side effects and proven effectiveness beyond the dangerous Swine Flu vaccine.

The best idea I've ever heard...

If you want to know the answer for health care reform please take the time to read the best article ever! Though lengthy it is well worth it. I read this article over a month ago and have been thinking about it's relevance ever since, now I've finally gotten the opportunity to share it with everyone else. I intend to send it to everyone, including my state representatives. Unfortunately this will probably not ever come to fruition the ideas are wonderful and represent exactly what we should all want; transparency and choice! What a wonderful tribute to the authors father. Please check out, http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200909/health-care.

DON'T LET FEAR MOTIVATE YOU...

This is the time of the year when vaccine manufacturers begin their big flu shot campaign. It is important that you are able to make an informed decision about the annual 'flu' shot and H1N1 flu shot variation for you and your family members.

The most frustrating information about this vaccine is it's ineffectiveness. The flu shot is typically created best on the two or three most popular strains of the flu virus from the previous season. In one study I read, sick individuals were tested and they found that 87% of those who were sick with the flu did not have the strain that they used for the vaccine that year so it was only effective for 13%. Rendering it virtually ineffective.

The scary thing about the vaccine is that, though some vaccines do not include mercury this one does. Although no proven relationship exists, the rise in Autism by nearly 300% in the last 10 years has directly parralled the huge increase in recommended vaccines.

Definitely worth considering when it comes to you and your family's health.

HEALTHCARE REFORM?

Frustration sets in when it comes to political reform and governmental issues.

If you feel powerless now is the time to act! You can have a voice in political reform.

I recently had the opportunity to meet with some of our local legislators who voiced enthusiasm at being able to meet with a 'Chiropractor', me, because they often hear from the medical community, but rarely had been included in Chiropractic events.

In our honest and frank discussion she shared how mis or under informed our representatives are to the power of and public appeal of Chiropractic. Since many of you pay cash for your services, true utilization numbers are not known. The jest of our conversation was that they want to hear from you.

Whether you've had wonderful successes with Chiropractic or not, I think we all agree that we want the freedom of choice. The opportunity to choose who we see to meet our health care needs. The current reform may not include a choice, one proposal left out the family medical doctor too, including only drugs and hospitals.

Visit http://www.chirovoice.org/ or http://www.adjustthevote.org/ and follow the easy instructions. By simply signing up you can send letters to your local legislators telling them how much you value your ability to choose Chiropractic care.

Insanity...

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, but expecting a different result.

Unless we are willing to make changes in our choices our health outcomes will not change, no matter how much money we throw at them. There are no quick fixes for your health. Health is a life-long progression and reflection of your choices.

The Sorry State of American Health
"TIME MAGAZINE December 1, 2008: Despite advances in medicine, Americans are less healthy than we used to be, and the next generation may be even worse off. How to reverse the trend--before it's too late. The U.S. spends far more on health care than any other nation. Then, Why U.S. is 37th when it comes to health? #34 in life expectancy? The three leading causes of death in the U.S. are heart disease, cancer and drugs/surgeries. America's health is in crisis."

Infertility - An Alternative Answer

Do you know Chiropractic can help infertility?

Many Chiropractors are credited with helping their patients conceive. In fact after trying to conceive for years my mother became pregnant with me after undergoing intensive Chiropractic care.

A review of the research published in JVSR in May 2003 was a retrospective of 14 seperate peer-reviewed articles studying 15 women suffering from infertility. "The results showed a link between the application of chiropractic care and subsequent successful outcomes of pregnancy."

Who knew? Who can you share this with? Many of you know first hand the joy you experience with your own family, I couldn't imagine life with out my little Cash-man.

“You never know how far reaching something you think, say or do today, will affect the lives of millions tomorrow.”

Who wants french fry grease for brains?

As a parent - is there anything you wouldn't do for your child? Despite our challenging economic times, it is fairly safe to assume that if we parents could buy added intelligence for our children, we would. But did you realize you can! By providing organic, nutritious, whole foods to your growing children, especially in the first few years, you are providing crucial, healthy fuel for developing bodies and brains. In our monthly healthcare class we discuss the fact that your brain and nerves are made up of fats; if you had the choice wouldn't you want your brain and your childrens to be made of healthy omega-3 fats, found in fish, nuts, avocados and flax, rather then McDonalds french fry grease?

Children who get to eat real whole food (fruits, vegetables, healthy proteins, omega 3 fats, nuts, legumes, and lots of water) will develop healthier brains and bodies. It is as simple and as wonderful as that. So go for it - invest in your child’s brain. Hopefully, they will be smart enough to thank you later!

Healthy Choices...

I saw a quote today "Happiness is not the absences of pain" - that's true, more importantly "Health is not the absence of symptoms." Yet many people judge their level of health by their symptoms. Many times if you wait to make healthier choices to improve or maintain your health, until you are sick or expressing symptoms - it's to late:( Living a healthy life is really simplier then you think; Eat Well, Move Well, Live Well!! EAT fresh fruits and vegetables everyday, every meal. Drink WATER - nothing replaces it. Walk, stretch or MOVE everyday, what you don't use - you will LOSE. Take care of your nerve system - the MASTER CONTROLLING system needs maintenance - get your spine adjusted regularly!! You brush your teeth and get your oil changed regularly - why not maintain your spine, you can't get a replacement.

The value of health...

Have you ever thought about what your health is worth to you? Could you put a dollar value on the ability to function everyday. Of course when you sit and think about it there is probably very little you value more, but on a daily basis are you really honoring the things that you value most; health and family. We all realize that sometimes the things we value most are neglected and we make a point to create date nights and family nights to prioritize them among all the chaotic activities we have. But your ability to be a quality spouse, parent, sibling, child and friend will diminish if you are not functioning at your greatest potential.

Everyday focus for just a few minutes on yourself and your health, make quality choices that support the bigger goal AND remember the true value of your health is greater then you could ever quantify. Don't wait until it's to late do it today!!
