Dear readers,
Welcome to March 2005, even though it feels like a winter in Moscow, the daffodils still managed to muster enough strength and shoot through the ground and display their warmth.
Much has happened since the last newsletter. So let me update you. For those of us in Europe you may well know that from the 1st of August 2005, various vital nutrients will no longer be available in supplement form and the level of other nutrients have been reduced to unnecessary levels! For those of you who have no idea about what is going on, go to www.healthchoice.org.uk for more information.
Can you imagine that one day you may walk into your health food store and find half of the supplement shelves empty. For example the blood sugar stabilising mineral chromium will no longer be available in the amount required to help prevent diabetes in certain individuals. If you have not already done so, I would like to encourage you to write to your MP before Europe starts setting maximum permitted levels for vitamins and minerals. You can obtain a ‘guide’ to writing a letter on the above website.
Why is this happening? Well you only need to know the oppositions; the Pharmaceuticals, Germany and France (that’s in Europe). For the USA the battle has just started, so be pro-active, after all this is about your health.
Unfortunately, there is no proof to show that the vitamins and minerals being clamped down are actually toxic at such levels…But what really upsets my emotionally charged cells is the fact that we can:
- Go out and buy as many packs of cigarettes we like, and smoke them all at once (if desperate), but the government or the pharmaceuticals have nothing to say about this
- You can go out and buy alcohol as if it is your 21st Birthday every day!..but the government or the pharmaceuticals have nothing to object about
- And oh MY GOSH!!!! One can buy toxic over the counter drugs such as the non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), but no one bats an eyelid!
Vitamins and minerals have been taken for decades with no ill effect, but people continue to take medications which have toxic side effects. And to further add fuel to the fire, most of these medications are not addressing the ‘cause’ of ill health, they are just suppressing them. Just like sweeping dust under the rug.
Let me give you an example, I had a client Mary, several months ago come to see me for her acid reflux problems. She was initially ‘treated’ by her doctor for her arthritis with a NSAID. Give me a break; no one is ‘treating’ any condition by suppressing it! This helped ease the arthritic pain, but later she developed a skin rash on her abdomen, for which she was prescribed an anti-fungal cream. She then later started to experience painful acid reflux and was prescribed an antacid. …OK, now are you ready for this, ,,,here is the real picture (the movie ‘Sliding Doors’ comes to mind at this point) . Mary comes to see me on the advise of her nephew. When Mary came to see me she had started to get her arthritic pains again, as well as all the other symptoms above whilst still on all her medications.
Following the body scan, it turned out that she had two parasites and a weak digestive system (needless to say). Her so-called fungal infection (which was really a reaction and not a fungal infection) was brought on by the NSAIDs (that she was sensitive to) and the acid reflux was triggered by the ongoing parasitic infections.
Now tell me, if Mary continued on her medications, for the rest of her life (Mary is 68 yr of age) would she have had a good quality of life? Having had TREATED Mary of the parasites and building up her digestive system, Mary is now arthritis-free, ‘fungal’ free and acid reflex free! and here's the kicker - medication free.
If that case study does not get you writing to your MP or Senator…then we will be closing the gate once the proverbial horse has bolted.
To legislative free health!
