And now the flu bug.

Eat for the health of it.

All we have to do is take all the precautions we have been told to take all of our lives. It might sound silly but most of us have been told since we were little tykes, that we should wash our hands after using the bathroom, and a lot of us had the old outhouse. Don't kiss anyone if you don't feel good. Don't drink out of the same glass or cup. You have to follow these rules if you do not want to get the flu or if you don't want everyone around you to get it. Wear a mask if you are sick and have to be out there. And especially, stay away from people that are coughing and sneezing. Just use good old hygiene and common sense.

I just read this article and want to pass it on. They say-do not use this timiflu because it is not safe. Why would a doctor continue to write a script for it? According to the New England Journal of Medicine, they say that the dosage on it is given in teaspoons or fraction of a teaspoon while the dosage on the syringe that is with the medication is marked in milligrams. A Tamiflu overdose is potentially toxic. It has been linked to nasty side effects.

They have halted the use of Tamiflu in Japan because of irrational behavior by children that are taking it. Other children have experienced nausea, vomiting and dehydration after taking this Tamiflu. Now isn't that what the flu is anyway? Why take something that will make you sicker?

Just a little extra: Do you know that there is a tree called the Graviola tree, deep in the Amazon Rain Forest, that they say can cure cancer and other illnesses? This report can be found in : Beyond Chemotherapy: New Cancer Killer, Safe as Mother's Milk.

Laughter is healthy:

A group of Americans travel to Holland, they stop at a cheese farm and the tour guide is explaining the goats milk was used to make the cheese. She also showed the group a lovely hillside with many grazing goats. She pointed and explained, "These goats are the older goats, we put them out to pasture when they no longer produce." And then she asked, "What do you do with the older goats in America, when they no longer produce?" A spry old gentleman answers from the back of the bus, "They send us on a bus trip."
