Exposure to carcinogens

Eat for the health of it.

It is scarry when you think of how many chemicals that we are exposed to every day and we probably don't even know it's happening. And then it takes sometimes as many as thirty years before that exposure catches up with us. I am worried about my daughter who was exposed to asbestos when she was in service. Then there are fumes from the metals cadmium, nickel, and chromium, also known to cause lung cancer. Vinyl chloride causes liver sarcomas. Then there is the risk of skin and lung cancer from exposure to arsenic. Exposure to benzine and cyclophosphamide can cause leukemia, because it chemically changes the bone marrow.

You would think that after knowing that these and many other chemicals are causing cancer, why doesn't someone do something about removing them from use? Each person will be responsable for staying clear of chemicals and try to keep them away from our environment, that is the only way we will get rid of them.

I know there is a man named Baker, that has a book out on all natural gardening and he shows you what to use besides the chemical and I am sure that there are pest controls that you can buy in some stores too, that would be great if everyone tried them. I don't use anything on my garden, I hoe and pull weeds or my husband uses the rototiller. But that didn't keep the racoons out of the corn and they ate every ear in the garden. But I am sure there is something that this Baker has to get rid of raccoons too. I do have his book somewhere and I have to find it or buy another one.

Laughter is healthy:Smart kid

The teacher was having problems with a first grader and she finally asked him: Harry, "What is your problem?"

Harry answered her, "I am too smart for the first grade." The teacher asked,"What makes you think you are too smart for the first grade?" Harry answered, "My sister is in the third grade and I am smarter then she is." The teacher took Harry to the principles office and explained to him what was going on. They decided it best to give Harry a test. The princple asked him some questions. Harry, what is 3x3?
Harry answered quickly, "9."
Princple, "What is 6x6?"
Harry: "36."
The principle asked every question that he felt a third grader should know. He looked at the teacher and said,"I have asked him everything that I can think a third grader should know and he has answered them and I think he is ready for the third grade."
The teacher replied, "Let me ask him some questions."
The principle and Harry both agreed. The teacher asked Harry, "What does a cow have four of that I only have two of?"
Harry answered,"Legs."
Teacher, "What do you have in your pants that I do not have?"
Harry, "Pockets."
Teacher,"What starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy,oval, delicious and contains a thin, whitish liquid?"
Harry: "A coconut."
Teacher: "What goes in hard and comes out soft and sticky."
The principle stood wide eyed as he waited for Harry's answer, Harry replied,"Bubble gum."
Teacher: "What does a man do standing up, that a woman does sitting down, and a dog does on three feet?"
Harry answered,"Shake hands."
By this time the principle was very nervous.
The Teacher asks, "What word starts with an,'F' and ends with a 'K' that occurs with a lot of heat and excitement?"
Harry answers,"Firetruck."
The principle told the teacher,"Put Harry in the fifth grade, I got the last 7 questions wrong myself."

Inflamation of the eyelid

Eat for the health of it.

I had trouble with my eye lid, it would itch and get a sty on it and I would wash it with a cloth and very warm water, it would go away, but the last time it didn't want to leave, no matter what I did, so I went to the doctor and he told me that I would have to go to a surgeon and he would take it off. I shuttered just at the thought of anyone messing with my eyes. I have used Colloidal Silver for many things but I was leary of using it on my eyes. I asked at the health food store and they said it was okay to use it so I washed my closed eye several times a day. Even after it looked like it was pretty well gone, I wanted to make sure it didn't come back. I quit using it and I kept my fingers crossed so that it wouldn't come back. I think it has been at least three years and so far it hasn't come back. I do give my eyes a little wash now and then, with the Colloidal Silver.

Another thing that I bathe my eye lids with is warm sea salt water.(Be sure to keep your eyes closed,) because I am sure salt water will burn. I take some very warm water and put in a tablespoon of sea salt and take a cloth and soak the cloth in the salt water solution and hold it on my closed eyelids and somehow it draws that itching and burning out of your eyes. Also, I have used warm milk. I also get eye drops from the health food store and use them especially for traveling. You can get dry eyes any time. I carry Colloidal silver with me all the time. The nasal spray and the drops. I put the drops in my ears too. If you would feel better about talking to the owner or the manager of the health food store and ask about using the Colloidal Silver. I am telling you this because some of the employees do not know that much about some of these things.

For those who read my Blogs all the time, I will not be on here until Tuesday night. I am taking a scenic bus trip up north, am hoping the colors will be pretty.

Eggs are really good for you.

Eat for the health of it.

Why does the media still give the eggs a bad name? Don't they know that eggs are really good for you? They have 13 essential vitamins and minerals, vitaminD and B12. What else could they ask for in a small nutrative inexpensive compound? It looks like the giant food firms only want you to eat junk food, now there is something they ought to go after. I cannot believe that anyone would think a natural food would be bad and that junk food is good. From the beginning of time the foods were here on earth for us to eat and everything had a purpose for us to eat it. They didn't have all of these processing plants, grinding up good grains and berries etc. and then adding artificial gunk to the mixture and molding it or whatever they had to do to make it enticing enough to eat.

Do you know that if you ate ten eggs a day, that it could clean your arteries and sharpen your memory? I'm going back on my low carb diet. Eggs are one of the forbidden foods that you can go back to eating for your health and while your at it, have some steak, crab,pork chops etc.

From the time of the cave man, men have hunted their foods and that is all of the natural foods, they never heard of processed anything, and probably ate everything raw, until someone figured out how to start a fire.

Spinach is good for you too. Maybe some people may not think so but it is good for your eyes but only if it is fried in bacon grease. Who would have thought that? Spinach has the nutrient, lutein which helps macular degeneration. The eye saving nutrient in spinach are soluable- so you cannot adsorb them without fat, and listen to this, bacon grease is one of the best fats known to cook with. Yes, you have been told just the opposite, but think of all the other lies they have been telling us.

One of the best fats to cook with is lard, it's all natural.Something that I have noticed is that most people are on medication and a large number of people are on a lot of medication. How did so many people get so sick over such a short period of time? Makes you wonder. Who made everyone think that their cholesterol should be below 200? Did you know that cholesterol actually patches up the holes so the blood vessels in your brain do not burst.

Low cholesterol increases your chances of dying from an infecious disease and did you know that AIDS victims actually have low cholesterol and it's not because they are healthy. Cholesterol is actually the mother of all nutrients. Your body needs cholesterol to create Hormones. Go ahead and eat chicken wings with the skin, Lobster, butter, and other fatty foods. I eat all of these foods on a low carb diet. Try it. I was in for a check up today and the doctor said everything was good and almost perfect. I feel good too.

You may want this information

Eat for the health of it.

The silent killer, a reputation that has been given to ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer spreads so rapidly that by the time they discover it, it's too late. If it is detected early, it is usually cured. The symptoms are so much like anyone may have after menapause; tired, bloating, constipation and urinary problems. If you are having these symptoms, go to your doctor.

**************************************

If you take notice to people that are diabetics, they do not like foods that are good for them and they crave foods that are bad for them. I keep encouraging my husband to eat peanut butter but he doesn't like it and yes he is diabetic.

He had prostate cancer and they say that tomatoes are very good for you because they have a potent antioxident called Lycopene that has been proven to reduce the risk of prostate cancer. Catsup should be a good source of Lycopene but they ruined that when they added the High Fructose Corn Syrup to it.

**************************************

Women in Spain and Greece are less likely to develope breast cancer because they use Olive oil which contains Oleic acid. So use that Olive oil, it's good for you.

**************************************

Instead of mouth wash, which can be bad for you, try using 6 ounces of warm water and 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar.

**************************************

If you have an ulcer or even think you are getting one, try eating a lot of broccoli and try not to cook the nutrients out of it, add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and a 1/2 cup of water and just steam it until barely tender. With the vinegar you may not need any salt but if you do use salt, use sea salt or Hymalayan salt.
Another thing that has cured ulcers in a friends stomach was hot peppers. Eat them any way you can. Maybe try Mexican food. Or just get some hot peppers and eat them with your favorite foods.

Probiotics

Eat for the health of it.

You have probably heard the expression(death begins in the colon. 80% of your immune cells are in your intestines so if you want to ward off the flu bug or a cold or any contagious disease, you have to keep the colon and intestines cleaned out.
Autopsy reports have shown that a large number of colons are swollen and many as much as two times their normal size with rotting waste. Dead fecal matter in your colon stops good digestion and your over loaded colon dumps toxins into your bloodstream.

You can tell something is wrong when you have a lot of discomfort, like indigestion, constipation, sour stomach, bloating and acid reflux. And then you get other health problems like bad breath, body odor, headaches, dark circles under your eyes and fatigue because your body is storing excess toxins. You may even have aching joints and muscles. A sick digestive tract means you have a sick body.If you feel your innerds are going to pot, you should look into a good probiotic. I drink Coloidal silver every day, I start out taking 10 drops a day in a small glass of water and I have taken up to 30 drops a day. If this doesn't work, try the probiotics.

Eating healthy is probably the best place to start. My all natural cookbook is a good place to learn to eat healthy:

Laughter is healthy:Don't mess with old people

Old Harold was pretty fed up with his day nurse. She had told him many things he should and shouldn't do, so before she came in, he took his glass of apple juice and poured it into his urine specimen bottle that he hadn't filled with urine yet.
When the nurse came in a little later, she picked up the bottle and looked at it. "My, this does look a bit cloudy today." At this, Old Harold snatched the bottle from her hand, popped off the top, and drank it down, saying, "Well, I'll just run it through again.Maybe I can filter it better this time." The nurse, gagging, left the room.

Easy on the grains and sugars

Eat for the health of it.

In my own mind I know that lowering your carbohydrate intake will help you to lose weight. I was on the low carb diet for some time and I did lose about 45 pounds. I have to admit that it is a hard diet to stay on, well any diet is hard to stay on, but when you find one that really works for you, you want to stay with it but then you see all your friends eating a piece of pie or cake and ice cream then naturally you want some of that too and before you know it, your weight is heading the wrong way again.

All diets are hard to stay on so don't feel bad, just start it up again and keep trying to stay on it. If you want it bad enough you can do it. The main thing about the low carb diet is that the food you eat is all natural. Processed foods are high in carbohydrates. Check the label. It is best to get a carb counter and make a list of all the foods that have less then fifteen carbs and watch the amount for that count. I try to stay at about 35 carbs per day.

Sugars, grains and starchy vegetables are high in carbs. If you make a list just list the things you like and the number of carbs and choose what you want to eat for that day. Don't even think of that bag of chips or candy, cookies and other carby things. You do have to eat some carbs each day because if you don't you get pretty weak and you don't want to do that. If you do then just eat something with carbs in it and you will start to feel better. You also will want your doctor to check your ketones now and then. You will have to take a sample of urine to the doctor for that test.

Keep in mind that it isn't the fats that make you fat. The fact is any meal that is high in carbohydrates from grains and sweets generates a rapid rise in blood glucose.To adjust to this rise the pancreas secretes the hormone insulin into the bloodstream, which lowers the blood sugar.

The next best thing to try to lose weight is to eat all natural foods, and you will find that your low carb diet is really pretty much all natural foods.

A woman arrives at the Gates of Heaven. When St. Peter met her at the gate she said, "this looks like such a beautiful place, how do I get in?"
Saint Peter said, "You have to spell the word love."
The woman was surprised. "Is that all?" Saint Peter answered,"Yes."
The woman spelled-LOVE- and Saint Peter opened the gate and left her in. About a year later Saint Peter asks her to watch the gate as people will be coming in today and I am very busy.
She watched for awhile and her husband came to the gate. "I am surprised to see you here, how have you been?"
"I have been doing pretty well since you died, I married the beautiful young nurse that took care of you while you were sick. I won the lottery and I sold our house and bought a mansion and we traveled all over the world and we went to Cancun and while I was water skiing today I fell and broke my neck and here I am. What a bummer.. How do I get in here?"
"You have to spell a word."
"Which word?" Her husband asked.
She answered,"CZECHOSLOVAKIA"

vaccinate or not?

Eat for the health of it.

It seems there is a rash of things happening in the medical field that really makes you feel uneasy. First they want all these young girls to get this vaccine, gardasil and you wonder if this is really necessary. There are side effects that I wouldn't want to put my daughter through and I hope my granddaughters do not get this shot.

Now they want them to get this H1N1 shot for the swine flu that probably isn't any worse than the common ordinary flu. My neighbors son had it and he said he had a headache, cramps and vomiting. Sounds just like the flu we had years ago. We went to bed and stayed there until we felt better. The only medicine we got was an aspirin. We tried to keep down some warm milk and bread.

I do remember a medicine that we had that a distant relative made and it was for sale in the local drugstore and I find out now that it is no longer available but it's too bad because it really made you feel better. It was good for any kind of cramps, diarrhea, indigestion, or flu. It was red and it tasted good too. The name of it was called 'Burgoons Cordial.' I did have the flu a couple of weeks ago but I drank my vinegar drink. When I don't feel good I drink my special 'health drink' the recipe is in my cookbook at the bottom of this article. It's good for indigestion or a pick me up in hot weather and it helped to lower my cholesterol.

I feel that I am healthy and do not need to get this shot and once before when I got a flu shot, I started to get sick before I even got home from the doctors office. I decided then that I would not have another shot.

Boudreau staggered home after spending the evening in a bar with his friend Thibedeau. He headed up the steps and misjudged the steps and fell, landing on his rump. The whiskey bottle he had in his back pocket broke and made the fall quite painful.
He managed to get up and pull down his britches and checked his butt cheeks and they were bleeding from the broken glass. He managed to find a full box of band-aids. He then managed to stick a band-aid every place he saw some blood. He hid the almost empty box of band-aids and slipped into bed.
In the morning Boudreau woke up with a headache and a sore rearend. Clotile(his wife)stared at him accross the room stated, "You were drunk again last night, weren't you?"
Boudreau answered,"Mais chere, why you say such a mean ting to me?"
"Well", Clotile said," It could be the open front door, it could be the broken glass at the bottom of the stairs, it could be the blood trailing through the house, it could be your bloodshot eyes, but mostly ...it's all those band-aids stuck on the downstairs mirror."

Walking for the health of it.

Eat for the health of it.

Is there a special way to walk? I don't really think so. Some people walk carrying some weights, I can't see why or why not. Some walk really fast, but why hurry? Unless your training for the olympics or some type of race. I think correct posture might be a little more important, a nice stride and a little arm swing. Use a long,smooth and even stride. It is good to warm up a bit before going for the walk but not totally necessary unless you are into intensive walking. I don't warm up before I go shopping and that is a lot of walking.

Of course, if you are an intense walker then I would go through some stretching and get the achilles tendon and the calf, quadriceps and the ham strings all warmed up. If you are getting into a walking program and you are over 45, you may want to visit your doctor first to be on the safe side.

Keep in mind that you are not in any hurry, you have the rest of your life to do this. You don't need to start out with a timer, just see how far you can go and add a little each time. When you can walk a mile in 20 minutes, your on your way. Just remember if you just want to walk a casual walk it really doesn't matter how far you go, only remember, you have to come back.

The proper technique is not that important, the only important thing is that you get out there and walk. The key is to stay active. Choose a good walking shoe, try to get someone to walk with you, the time flies by when you are with someone. It takes willpower, but once you get in the habit, it will just be a part of your life.

It helps if you learn to eat healthy too. If you are interested in an all natural cookbook please try:

Laughter is healthy: Pecans in the cemetery:

On the outskirts of a small town, there was a cemetery and while riding they're bikes one day, two small boys decided to walk in the cemetery and they found a large pecan tree that had shed a lot of it's pecans and several had rolled down the slight hill and stopped near the fence. The boys were picking them up and they sat beside a bush and began sharing them, "One for you and one for me."

Another boy came riding by on his bike and heard someone talking, "One for you and one for me." He just knew what it was. He jumped on his bike and headed for town when he ran into an old man walking with a cane,the boy told him that he heard the Lord and Satan dividing up the souls. After awhile he convinced the old man to come to the cemetery with him.

Standing by the fence they could still hear, "One for you and one for me. One for you and one for me."

The old man whispered, "I guess you were right, let's see if we can see the Lord."

Peering through the fence, yet still unable to see anything, the boy and the old man gripped and pulled into the fence trying to get a glimpse of the Lord.

At last they heard, "One for you and one for me. That's all, now let's go get those nuts by the fence and we'll be done."
They say the old man made it back into town way ahead of the kid on the bike.

A joke instead-again

Eat for the health of it.

Sorry no info tonight again. Last night I had to go to bed early so we could get up in the middle of the night so I could get to a book signing this morning. I sold 10 books but that was good, when competing with other authors.
So here's the story.

A minister found a pile of boxed bibles that had never been opened and being the church was financially in trouble he asked the congregation for volunteers to sell the bibles door to door, for $10 each.

Three young men from the church came forward and said they would sell the bibles, Peter, Paul and Louie. The minister was sure Peter and Paul could handle the job but somehow he wasn't quite sure of Louie. Louie had a speach impediment, but the minister decided to let him try.

After a week of selling the three fellows came to the minister. Peter told the minister that he had sold 20 bibles and he gave the minister the $200.00.
Paul said that he was able to sell 28 bibles and handed the minister $280.00.
Then the minister looked at Louie and didn't want to embarass him if he didn't sell anything, so he stammered around for something to say but Louie was so excited that he just handed the envelope to the minister and blurted out, "PPastor,"II ssold 320 bbibles."
Both Peter and Paul said,"That's impossible." But the minister said, "There is $3200.00 in the envelpoe."

Peter and Paul reminded the minister that they were professional salesman and they wanted to know how Louie could sell better then they did.

The minister asked Louie, "Can you tell us what technique you used?"

Louie explained, "I jjust wwent tto ththe ddoor aand aasked iif ththey wowould llike tto bbuy aa bbibble ffor tten ddollors oor iif ththey wawanted mme tto rread iit tto ththem."

A joke only tonight

Eat for the health of it.

The farmer and his cow.

A farmer went to town to buy a new pickup truck, that he saw in the paper. He told the salesman which one he wanted and they sat down to do the paperwork. The salesman handed the farmer the paperwork on the pickup and the farmer declared," This isn't the price I saw in the paper.
The salesman began to explain that he was getting extras such as power brakes, power windows special tires etc.and that was what drove the price up.
The farmer needed the truck so bad that he paid for the truck and went home.

A few months later the salesman called the farmer on the phone and asked," do you still have cows on your farm." The farmer replied, "Yes, I do, why do you ask?"

The salesman explained that his son was in 4-H and he needed a cow for a project.
The farmer said, "I have a few cows and I will sell any one of them for $500.00."
The salesman replyed,"Great, I'll be right out."
After spending a couple of hours on the farm, checking out the cows and deciding which one they wanted. They got it loaded in their trailer and the salesman sat down to write a check out to the farmer.
The farmer said,"Now wait a minute, that's not the final price of the cow, there are a few extras that you will have to pay for too."

The salesman asks,"What extras?"

Below is the list the farmer gave to the salesman.

BASIC COW............$500.00
Two tone exterior....$ 45.00
Extra stomach........$ 75.00

Transfats

Eat for the health of it.

The hydrogenation of vegetable oils began in the US in 1910. That is when crisco replaced lard. In the 1950's, the fast food and the baking and snack food industry capitalized on turning liquid oils into solid fats. Foods high in trans fatty acids are baked goods like doughnuts and pastry, deep fried foods like chicken and french fries.It is best to use these in moderation.

The FDA requires that saturated fat be labeled on food products and limits the extent to which they can label their items as low cholesterol. But without labeling trans fat, a company is able to label their product cholesterol free when in reality, the product may contain a lot of cholesterol by means of trans fats.

Strong arguments are being made by researchers and nutritionists nationally, for the labeling of trans fats on food products. This labeling would naturally help the consumers to make the right choices. It takes change and maintenance for a healthy diet and lifestyle to help lose weight and narrow the risk of disease.

My opinion on this information is that a person should make it a habit of eating all natural foods and that includes butter, lard,anything in it's natural state. I don't think people had problems with cholesterol and heart attacks etc. until they started to process everything and added things to it that were not so natural.

Factory farming

Eat for the health of it.

What is factory farming? It is just that. Instead of cows, pigs, chickens and turkeys
all sharing the same barnyard, someone came along and offered the farmer some money to quit milking cows, a few years later they moved in a gigundous factory barn where thousands of cows would share the same building and they milk these cows around the clock. This is what I was told but I haven't had the desire to go and watch them, thinking of these cows being penned up all the time; I just can't imagine how that can be. Our cows were outside in a penned up area and they were called into a milking parlor at a certain time in the late afternoon and then again in the morning, trying to stick to a schedule.

The same with chickens. Our chickens were always in a fenced area but at least they got to go outside and run around. These factory chickens are all caged in and they lay there eggs and the egg rolls out and down to a packing place to be boxed and sold.

We never had turkeys but we knew people that did and they raised them about the same as chickens and I imagine the turkeys are caged pretty much the same as chickens. Being caged means no exercise and you know with humans how we need to exercise to stay healthy. Some get no sunlight, illnesses causes overuse on antibiotics.

Pigs used to be in a large fenced in area where they could rut around digging holes and lying in it to cool off in the summer. Sometimes you would see chickens, pigs and cows all in the same barnyard.One bore could impregnate a lot of sows so they were weeded out first and the sows that produced the most piglets were kept for breeding, the others were killed for food. Now they keep them in separate cages, the sows get bred and they stay in the cage and raise their young. I think it was healthier to let them go outside and run around and rut the ground.

It's just sort of a cruel way to raise an animal which used to run free. What I don't care for is the fact that they own and operate everything including the slaughtering of these animals.How do we know if they are doing right with them having control. If a cow was sick it was separated from the others and the milk was spilled or discarded until she was better, now they give them shots and they stay right there and they milk them just the same.

Which is better - butter or margarine?

Eat for the health of it.

I guess if you fail you just try-try again. When the manufacturer of margarine failed at their attempt to fatten the turkeys with margarine, they came up with a new idea. The turkeys died instead of getting fattened up, like the plans were, so they came up with the idea to add some food color to the white substance that looked like a big grease ball. They put the gunk in a plastic bag and added a yellow coloring egg, it looked similar to a very small football and it was plastic. I remember it very well, at first you had to get the tiny plastic container and you would pinch it until it would burst inside of the plastic bag. The orange coloring would ooze out and we used to take turns squeezing the bag until you got a yellow looking "butter" we didn't know any better. But we did know it didn't taste as good as the real butter that grandma used to bring us that she made from the cream she got from her cow. And I remember the cows name was Helen.

Do you know the difference between butter and margarine? Be sure to read all the way to the end. Butter surely tastes better, butter has been around for many years and it is all natural, butter is slightly higher in saturated fats, eating butter helps to absorb other nutritional foods.

Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over the same amount of butter. Margarine is high in trans fatty acids, increases risk of cancer, lowers the quality of breast milk if you are nursing, decreases immune response, decreases insulin response, and to top it all is the disturbing fact that margarine is only one MOLECULE away from being a piece of PLASTIC...Margarine is hydrogenated, this means hydrogen is added, changing the molecular structure of the substance.

I'll tell you, that will keep me from eating it, plus I don't like the taste of it. Especially after you have eaten real butter all your life. The few times when my parents had to buy it, when we ran out of grandma's, we would spread it on our bread and the sprinkle sugar on it so it would taste good.

If you want to try something, purchase a tub of margaine and set it in your garage, within a few days you will notice that there are no flies and it doesn't rot or smell bad. How about melting a little tupperware and spread it on your bread? It would probably taste the same.

Laughter is healthy: Female Carpenters:

Becky and Sally were doing some carpentry work. Becky was nailing down house siding, she would reach in her nail pouch and pull out a nail. Sally noticed that sometimes she would pound the nail in the siding then sometimes she would give the nail a toss over her shoulder. Sally figured it was worth looking into, and asked, " Becky, why are you throwing away some of those nails?" Becky explained,"When I pull the nails out of my pouch, half of them have the head on the wrong end and I throw them away." Sally got upset and yelled," You moron, those nails aren't defective, they are for the other side of the house."

for good health reduce grains and sugar

Eat for the health of it.

Just think about it; humans existed on a diet of animal meats, fish and vegetation. I suppose they foraged every day like most wild animals do now. I can imagine that there were plenty of wild berry bushes around, wild grapes and fruit trees. Maybe the fruit trees didn't bear fruit like they do now but they also did not consume poison sprays either.

With the modern civilization came the sprays and the sugar and the grains that were ground into flour. All of this brought on illnesses and birth defects. with the modern civilization man was consuming way too much bread, cereal, pasta, corn(which is a grain, not a vegetable), rice, potatoes. These are carbohydrades which we consume in the form of processed foods.

With a meal of hamburger on a bun, French fries and a coke, it's no wonder 65% of Americans are over weight and 27% are clinically obese. It may be hard to understand that it isn't the fats that are fattening but it is the carbohydrates from our starch and sugar loaded diets.

What about the recuse spider?

Eat for the health of it.

I was just reading an article about the recluse spider. I had heard of them before and I was warned not to get bit by one because they have a very poisoness bite. I have read where some guy had to have a large gouge out of his arm to get all the poison.

This recent story was that this person discovered a rash while using her computer and thought it was an allergic reaction to soap or something. She said the spot where she was bitten had a red ring around the bite area and it was slightly swollen. She suspected it was a recluse spider bite.

She had read that Bentonite was very good and helpful with the brown recluse spider (BRS)She said she felt numbness and very little pain. She did recall that Bentonite was very good for BRS bites, so she prepared a poultice of Bentonite and coloidal silver and used it on the bite area and s
he took 1000mg of vitamin C.

The next day, her wrist was discolored, she worried about it and decided to go to the doctor. Her temperature was high. The doctor couldn't really identify the bite. She said she had been stung by bees, wasps and scorpions before but never had a reaction like this one.

She kept applying the Bentonite, coloidal silver poultice for 2 days. By the end of the 4th day the swelling went down. Two weeks later, she had no pain or swelling or itching at the area of the bite.

Her boyfriend found another spider just like the one that had bitten his girlfriend and being in a hurry to catch it the spider bit him. They applied that same treatment and after four days there was only a small dot on his skin and the swelling was gone.

I am so impressed with this story because what I had heard about the recluse spider was their bite was so poisoness. Although I would put the poultice on there right away, but I would still head for the doctors office too. I am going to buy some Bentonite but I have coloidal silver that I use all the time for many things. I also take vitamin C.

Do you use roundup?

Eat for the health of it.

Are you one of those persons that does your weeding with roundup? Although the makers claim it's safe there is still a lot of controversy about it. They have found residue up to a year after it has been sprayed on. It kills the vegetation that earth worms depend on for food and shelter, and earthworms help the soil by loosening it up. Roundup's active ingredient is glyphosate. Sperm count in rabbits were down to fifty percent and caused them genetic damage. The best way to rid of weeds is pulling them and in some cases you can use salt.

Another highly used chemical for insects in the lawn is Diazinon. I have used a mixture of Lemon ammonia and water to spray the lawn for insects. It's good to check around and find some place that handles the environmentally safe insecticide.

Are chidren abusing ADHD?

Eat for the health of it.

We know that ADHD has a list of side effects. But have you heard that they're turning kids into drug addicts? That's according to the report in the medical journal PEDIATRICS. ADHD drug Adderal is a mixed amphetamine salt, and methylphenidate is the key ingredient in the drugs Ritalin and Concerta, there is evidence of abuse also, with kids taking these drugs. I don't think children should be given drugs like Ritalin and Concerta. And these kids aren't doing this to get high, they do it to get an edge on the academic competition. The worst part of it is, this report shows the tip of the drug abuse iceburg. With all the drug abuse and the chemicals in the food, how can the children grow up to be anything? The chemicals will more than likely make them ill and the drugs can cause numerous side effects.

If you care, I hope to be back at my old routine next week.

A man riding his Harley along the beach in California, when all of a sudden a voice from the Lord, " I have been watching you and I feel you deserve a wish of a life time." the biker pulled over and said, "I would like a road from here to Hawaii." The Lord said," That is a bit much, can you think of something that will help mankind?" The biker thought a minute and said, Lord, I wish that I and all men could understand women; why do they cry? I want to know what she is thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, and she says nothing is wrong and when she snaps and complains and she says nothing is wrong. How can I make her truly happy?
The Lord whispers, "Do you want a two lane or four lanes on the bridge?"

Eyelashes or sore eyes

Eat for the health of it.

Are you lacking long eyelashes? If so, and you want to make them long and lush,you better check out what you want to happen. Now I have read that there is a product that can make your eye lashes long but there is something else that goes with the package so you better think about it before you use it. This product, that you place on the baseline of your eye lashes and within a month or so, your eyelashes grow. Now listen to this. This product can turn your eyelids dark, you can grow hair in places you don't want it to grow and one of the most scarry things is that it can change your eyes brown, permanently. Maybe you want brown eyes but just think, if it can do this maybe you better think of what else it can do. And to top it off, it's going to cost you $120.00 a month. Wouldn't it be better to use plain ole mascara.

I thought there were people being paid big money to protect us from these type of happenings. I guess we shouldn't think too much about this getting through the system when we hear every day about the chemicals that some how got in our food supply and it is making us sick. Someone had to okay it. Right?

That makes me wonder why they want to do away with the Ten commandments. Now aren't the Ten cmmandments a set of do's and don'ts? Don't they tell us we shouldn't steal? We shouldn't cheat, we shouldn't take what belongs to someone else? Obey our parents and elders? Rest on Sundays? Now that's a question for you. If they take away the ten commandments does that mean that we treat Sundays like every other day? And we work every day? And government offices will be open every day too? If we don't have the ten commanments, we don't have Holidays, right? I know this is an old subject but it sort of ties in with doing what is right, like when they put chemicals in our food supply, that is the same as beating someone and injuring them so bad that they are crippled the rest of their lives and may even die from these injuries. Then the bad person has to be punished, by law, which is where the ten commandments came from. And beating someone to death is the same as allowing chemicals to be put in our food supply that makes us sick and some people can die from it. Now who is accountable for that? Wouldn't you like to know that too?

Have you tried coconut oil?

Eat for the health of it.

Coconut oil is delicious. It adds that little something to your food that you are preparing. Fried, cooking or baking. Give it a try.

In the 50's, the public had turned against saturated fats - blaming that for the rise in heart disease. Butter, eggs and coconut oil were out. Vegetable oil was in, believing it was heart healthy.

Adding insult to injury - the soybean industry began to condemn the use of tropical oils. Years later the truth about coconut nut oil brought the tropical nutritional staple back into the lime light.

A dentist that happened to be traveling in the South Pacific discovered that the people on diets high in coconut products were healthy and trim, despite the high fat diet. Further studies proved a positive vascular health. There was no evidence that the high saturated fat intake had any harmful effects. Go ahead and eat, it's good for you.

Coconut oil has good benefits like:
Promoting heart health and weight loss.
Supports your immune system and metabolism.
Boosts energy and helps keep skin healthy and youthful looking.
Supports your thyroid.

I use extra virgin olive oil for salads and dressings but it is not recommended for frying or cooking because of the chemical structure. Cooking makes it suseptable to oxidative damage.

Polyunsaturated fats, include vegetable oils such as corn, safflower, sunflower, canola, and these are the worst to use. The only oil that will take the heat is coconut oil. Coconut oil contains lauric acid, the same ingredient in mothers' breast milk.

Laughter is healthy: Grandma's letter:

Dear Granddaughter,

The other day I bought a bumper sticker that said 'Honk if you love Jesus' boy am I glad I did. I found that a lot of people love Jesus. I put it on my bumper and what an uplifting experience I had.
I was stopped at a red light, at a busy intersection, just lost in thought about the Lord. All of a sudden the guy behind me must have read my bumper sticker because he started to honk like crazy. It was a good thing he did because I hadn't noticed that the light had changed. The guy started to holler out his window, 'for the love of God Go! Go! Go!'
What an excellent chearleader he was for Jesus.
Everyone was honking and waving. And I just smiled and waved back at them. I even honked my horn. There must have been a man from Florida back there too because I heard him say something about a sunny beach. Then I saw another man waving with his middle finger stuck up in the air.
I asked my grandson in the back seat, what that meant, and he said it was some sort of Hawaiian good luck sign.
Well I had never met anyone from Hawaii so I leaned out the window and gave him that good luck sign right back. My grandson burst out with laughter. Even he was enjoying this religious experience.
A couple of people got caught up in the religeous experience because they got out of their cars and headed toward mine but then I wanted to get through the light before it changed again so I just waved at them and just made it through the light before it changed. I slowed down enough to give them the Hawaiin good luck sign one more time.

Srevia the good sweetener

Eat for the health of it.

Stevia is a plant or an herb that grows wild in Paraguay and Brazil. It is several times sweeter than sugar. It is calorie free and I can vouch for it's safety. I have been using it for a few years now and I do not have a problem with it. Where as other sweeteners have always reacted on me almost immediately.

Japan, China and Brazil, plus several other countries have all approved of Stevia as a safe food additive. I would like to write the FDA and tell them they could use me as a tester. If their food additives are not safe, I will break out.

Although a major beverage company is eyeing Stevia as a sweetener for their sodas the FDA is still dragging their feet.But I don't understand why they have all of these other synthetic chemical sweeteners on the market that are showing proof of causing all kinds of illnesses and they don't pull them off the market, they just give them another name. Naturally if they pull the chemical sweeteners off the market they lose a lot of money. It's too bad that money is all that's important and a person's health means nothing. I think that everyone should just quit buying anything with these artificial sweeteners. And they should for their own health.

I consider myself lucky that I do have a reaction and get sick from all of these chemicals they put in our foods, that way I don't eat them. I know I am not alone because I have talked to many other people and they say they cannot use these chemicals either.

What really scares me is that these chemicals are probably causing cancer, and many other illnesses. My father worked with chemicals and he got cancer and died young. My husband also worked with chemicals and he got cancer twice and the last time he had cancer of the esophagus and stomach. I know he drank a lot of diet soda and he ate a lot of processed foods because he was on the road a lot and he ate out of vending machines and fast food places. You know he got a lot of chemicals in his system in every way possible.

Processed foods contain a lot of chemicals like, HFCS, Aspartame, MSG, Sucralose, Splenda etc., and to top it off you can get a good dose of chlorine by drinking unfiltered water and even white flour and white sugar has a bleaching agent in it. When you are on the road you don't know what you might get in your food..

I just cannot, for the life of me, figure out who or why anyone in their right mind would even consider adding a chemical to food and eat it. It's mind boggling.

Stevia has been used as a sweetener in South America for over 1500 years. Doesn't that tell them something?

Improve your life expectancy?

Eat for the health of it.

Believe it or not they say that you can improve your life expectancy by getting your supply of vitamin D. European researchers, from Milan, Italy and the international Agency for cancer research ran studies of people who had been given doses of vitamin D.
Vitamin D can reduce the poliferation of cells, which occurs in cancer.
Vitamin D helps to uptake calcium for bone health.
You can get vitamin D from being in the sun.
Vitamin D is so important for maintaining health and life expectancy.
The best way to raise your Vitamin D level is SUN exposure.
Studies show that insufficient sun exposure can leave you unprotected against *Diabetes
*Heart disease
*Arthritis
*Infertility and PMS
*Fatigue and depression
*Autoimmune Disorders
*Obesity

Laughter is healthy: Old couple at McDonalds
This older couple walks into McDonalds and he tells his wife to have a seat while he goes up to the counter to order their food. The manager noticed they had only purchased one meal for the two of them. One hamburger, one french fries and a drink. The old man opened the wrapper and took the hamburger and cut it in half and carefully counted out the french fries. He put the 1/2 burger and 1/2 fries in front of his wife and he took a swallow of the drink and handed it to his wife and she took a swallow too. Everyone's eyes were on the two by now and they were all feeling sorry for them. One man came to the table and offered to buy them a second lunch but the couple politely refused, and said, "Oh no! we share everything." Then people noticed that the man had eaten most of his sandwich and she had not eaten any of hers. The gentleman offered again to buy them a second meal and again they refused and the woman said, "No, we share everything." The gentleman then asked," Well, ma'm why is it you are not eating, are you waiting for something else"?
She answered him quietly, "Yes, sir, I am waiting for the teeth."

Bizarre reactions to Tamiflu

Eat for the health of it.

Have you ever heard of the cure being worse than the disease? More than half the kids in the UK have taken the antibiotic weapon against H1N1 virus and they have experienced side effects. Mostly minor things like cramps and nausea but as many as one in every five have experienced, "neuropsychiatric" reactions to the drug. These kids have been acting strange, unable to think clearly and have had nightmares. Although these are nothing new, but the dangers of the Tamiflu vacine is well documented.
In Japan they have banned the use of the Tamiflu for kids. All of these risks to reduce the symptoms of a flu bug by a couple of days. I think you can do as well by taking colloidal silver. You can buy it at the health food store and while your in there ask them how to take it. I use 10 drops in some water and I take it 3 times a day. I use colloidal silver for nasal conjestion, put it in my ears, I put it in my nose, I put it on sores I even cured a fungus type thing on my eye lid when my doctor told me I would have to have surgery. I would put some colloidal silver on a sterilized pad and wipe it on my eye lid several times a day and it went away. That has been two years ago. Colloidal Silver is one of the oldest known medicines. I am not saying that you shouldn't go to the doctor but it's foolish to use all of these drugs, then when you really need those drugs your system will be immune to them.

I am so allergic to chemicals in the food, which by the way, they are putting over 3,000 chemicals in our food supply. I have a hard time finding good food to eat. I would like to eat an apple without peeling it first but I am afraid that there might be some chemicals on it that won't wash off.

Laughter is healthy: The new priest

A new priest was so nervous at his first mass that he could hardly speak. After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done. The monsignor replied,"When I get nervous in the pulpit, I just put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. If I start to get nervous I just take a sip."
So next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice. At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink. He proceeded to talk up a storm. Upon his return to his office after mass he noticed a note taped to his door. Read on.
1) Sip the vodka, don't gulp it.
2) There are 10 commanments, not 12.
3) There are 12 disciples, not 10
4) Jesus was consecrated, not constipated.
5) Jacob wagered his donkey, he didn't bet his ass.
6) We do not refer to Jesus Christ as the late J.C.
7) The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are not referred to as Daddy, Junior and the spook.
8) David slew Goliath; he did not kick the feces out of him.
9) When David was hit by a rock and was knocked off his donkey, don't say he was stoned off his ass.
10)We do not refer to the cross as the "Big T."
11)When Jesus broke the bread at the last supper he said,"Take this and eat it for it is my body." He didn't say, "Eat me."
12)The Virgin Mary is not called "Mary with the Cherry."
13)The recommended grace before a meal is not:Rub-A-Dub-Dub thanks for the grub, Yeah God.
14)Next Sunday there will be a taffy pulling contest at St. Peters not a peter pulling contest at St. Taffy's.

TGA , transient global amnesia

Eat for the health of it.

High blood preasure or high cholesterol, which are closely linked to strokes are not risk factors of TGA. If you ever see anyone suddenly become disoriented, call for help immediately. TGA affects about as many men as it does women.Memory loss is a great concern for the patient and they may need counseling. There is no treatment or drugs. Diagnostic tests for this are the Electroencephelogram, (EEG). And the (CT) Computerized tomography (Scan). This is very new to me too, but I was asked to get some information on this and decided to pass it on in case you ever come in contact with a person that is disoriented and may not remember anything and it usually lasts for about 24 hours.

These are the facts: Splenda is a chemically created product where sugar molecules are transformed through chlorination and processed so as to be completely unrecognizable as sugar. Following chlorination, a further chemical process is applied using phosgene, a poisoness gas, a major industrial chemical used to make plastic and pesticides. The Splenda label does not and cannot use sugar as an ingredient, as sugar is not recognizable in the final process. In their campaign they continue to highlight "sugar" falsely seeking the association between Splenda and sugar in the consumers mind. Making one think that it is all natural when it is not.
I thought it was okay, by the add, that it was only sugar but not thinking < how did they remove the calories from sugar? I should have known better but still you trust the persons that are supposed to control these things and check them out before they are put on the market. I will never forget the first time I ever tried Splenda. I made a cup of tea and added the packet of Splenda to it and as I sipped away half of it, all of a sudden I started to get severe chest pains. I told my husband that I felt I was having a heart attack and we better go to the hospital. I happened to think that this was the first time I had used this product and I decided to look it up on the computer and when I read the article, that it was processed with chlorine, and remembering that I was allergic to chorine, I immediately took an allergy pill and within a few minutes it started to subside.

It just blows my mind that they are putting all of these chemicals in our food supply and we don't know it. Who would think that anyone would want to add a chemical to our food, and then have someone that you should trust to keep things like chemicals out of our food supply, and they are getting paid to approve this act. I should really call these products poison, because to me they are poison.

I think about these little ones that are using this stuff on their cereal, convenient foods,they put it in the packets in restaurants so anyone can use them. What is bad is that everyone seems to think there is nothing wrong with Splenda, it's just another sweetener to them. If they have no reaction, it's no wonder they think it's alright, but what they do not know is what harm it is doing to their systems, and some day they may get sick and not even relate it to Splenda or some other chemical, because Splenda is only one of many artificial sweteners. If I could talk to everyone, I would tell them to use the only no calorie sweetener, Stevia. It has been on the market for a few years but the only reason you did not hear of it was because the only place you could buy it was at the health food stores. Now it is on the shelf at the grocery stores. It is Stevia not Truvia or Juvia or any other simular, because I wrote to the company that makes Truvia and asked if they had a chemical in ther product and they never answered me so I felt,I knew the answer.

Keep in mind too that all of those artificial sweeteners have chemicals of some sort in them and remember that Stevia is a safe product, I have used it for years without any side effects. I have used Splenda, nutrasweet, Sweet and Low, etc. and they all had a reaction on me, because they contain a chemical. I just remember my friend always drank several cups of coffee a day and I watched her put packet after packet of the artificial sweeteners in her coffee. I miss her, she died from brain cancer and I feel that it was from all of that chemical she added to her coffee every day.

What's in the drinking water?

Eat for the health of it.

Have you ever thought of what could be put in our drinking water? I know they have to clean the water, if you ever saw the water in the river where our city gets water from, I often wondered how they ever cleaned it up. Then one day I had the opertunity to ask someone that knew. They had a grand opening at the new water plant. I was curious so we went in and they showed us around and I wanted to know how they got all the dirt out of the water and they didn't hesitate to explain how they used the chemicals to clean it up and then it went through a process to take the chemicals out too. I, of course had to ask, "Is the water free of chemicals then?" He said, "no, we have to put chlorine in the pipes to your houses because of the bacteria in the lines." Well, that is one thing I think should be a warning to each household, tell them they are responsible to have their water filtered in their homes. Then I find out that they put Flouride in the water to protect your teeth and that was something that someone dreamed up and it really isn't good for you. Now I have read another article where they are putting things in the water that can make young girls develope a whole year earlier and even boys are losing their masculinity. Now I am not selling filters but if I were you I would run, not walk and I would buy a water filter, (a good one) like a REVERSE OSMOSIS and if the water is not filtered in the school I would send a thermos of water with my child. Then another thing is that you can't freeze the water in plastic bottles, because that causes a toxic chemical reaction. How do these people sleep at night? Don't they have a conscience? I know how horrible it is to have a chemical reaction and I am allergic to almost every chemical they put in out food.

I have a lot of information on different chemicals in my all natural cookbook:

Laughter is healthy: Top Puns:

A woman gave birth to a set of twins, but she could not care for them so she adopted them out. One went to a family in Egypt and was named "Ahmal." The other was adopted by a family in Spain and they named him "Juan." Years later "Juan" sends a picture of himself to his birth mother. The mother tells her husband that she wishes she had a picture of her other son too. The husband responds, "They're twins! If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal."

A group of friars were behind in their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds. So because everyone liked to buy flowers from a man of God, a rival florist accross town thought the competion was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggert, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close.
Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, then told them he would be back if they did not close up shop. Terrified, they did so, proving that only Hugh can prevent florist friars.
Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him very frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.
And finally, there was the person who sent ten different puns to friends, with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them laugh. No pun in ten did.

just some helpful hints

Eat for the health of it.

If you are bothered with arthritis, this may help you to know. If you have tried Glucosamine and/or chondroitin and whether you were satisfied with it or not, you may want to try this. Ask your doctor if he could prescribe a very low dose of cortisone. Your body produces small amounts of hydrocortisone to fight stress, injuries and fatigue but your body could be deficient. If you are in a lot of pain it is worth the try.

Another healer for you that is cheap to use is peroxide. DO NOT DRINK IT. But it is good to use 1/2 peroxide and 1/2 warm water and put it in your ears. wash any type of sore with peroxide (I have been doing that all my life) I also use it to rinse my mouth out and to clean my teeth. Just take a capful and squish it around in your mouth about a minute and spit it all out. Peroxide, drawing salve and iodine were always in our medicine cabinet. We never went to the doctor, unless you needed stitches or I got poison ivy and I had to go to the doctor for that. Maybe that's why I am so allergic to so many drugs and all the chemicals they put in our food supply.

If you ever worked for a boss that reacts before thinking and getting some details, you will like this one.
This new boss naturally wanted to show his authority and as he walked into the room with a lot of workers he noticed this one young fellow leaning against the wall. He steps up to him and asked, " How much money do you make a week?"
A bit surprised by that question, the young man answered, "I make about $$400.00 per week. Why?"
The CEO handed the young man $1,600 in cash then screamed at him,"Here's four weeks' pay, now get out of here and don't come back!" The kid left without saying a word.
Feeling pretty good about what he had just done, the CEO looked around the room and asked, "Does anyone want to tell me what that goof ball did here?"
From accross the room came a voice, "Pizza delivery guy from Domino's.

Gross foods in the vending machines

Eat for the health of it.

I imagine that some people have to rely on vending machines for their food, but I think the food that comes out of those machines have to be loaded with preservatives. I look at that food in those machines and am not tempted at all to put my money in the machine to get anything. As long as I am satisfying my temptation, I want the real thing, not a bunch of chemicals and preservatives.

If you have a favorite recipe, why not try to make it using all natural ingredients. Like if you are frying some chicken, use the best olive oil you can buy and better yet use cocoanut oil, it's delicious.

I have mentioned before that low carb diet is really a good, healthy, filling diet. And my second best diet is the South beach diet. These are both basically eating all natural foods. And you can lose weight.

You can use most herbs and spices without a problem. You can grill or skewer cook your foods. Try to stay away from low fat dressings because they are laden with chemicals. Always check the bottle. Also check for HFCS, Aspartame, Splenda etc.

Diatetic candies and cookies end up have almost as many calories as do the regular ones. Try the health food stores and you will find they have some good tasting treats. I like their candies too.

Watchout for chewing gum, it may contain aspartame. I also buy my gum at the healthfood store. It is sweetened with Xylitol.

The best thing to do is empty your cupboards of anything that contains MSG,Chlorine, Aspartame, HFCS, Splenda (which has chlorine in it), Try to buy canned fruits and such that has been sweetened with cane sugar or Stevia. Use only sea salt and try to buy it that is Iodized. Table salt has added chemicals to keep it from caking.

Don't throw away liquids from cooking because they can be used to add to soups and gravies. If you buy some beef bones, bake them in the oven for awhile and add the water to them and it will make an excellent soup broth, especially for onion soup.

You can have apple cider vinegar but bipass the white vinegar, it is made from a chemical bi product. I was real happy when I found some all natural ice cream in the grocery store.

Always keep in mind that all diet drinks and foods contain a chemical of some sort like: Splenda, Aspartame, HFCS, Nutrasweet. Coffe and Tea, as long as it is all natural, you can indulge. Sweeten it with Stevia and add real cream and your all set.

Artificially sweetened foods will not help you lose weight. Just take a look at how many people are immensely overweight, these chemicals only make you crave more and more and you think that it doesn't have calories but that nasty chemical is making you crave more food.

Your all natural foods are really the best and the most satisfying, which will end your food cravings. Any diet will have you making a decision what to eat and what is the best for you. If you are serious about losing weight then buy a carb counter or Dr. Adkins book and it will help you a lot. No, I am not selling them. You can find them at most bookstores.
