While you are praying or after praying don't forget to LISTEN for the answers! They will come. click here - to view the studies showing the scientific proof that prayer works. 1. As I watch the
television and other ads that are coming out I have
noticed more and more Pharmaceutical drugs being
advertised. I am especially concerned when I
hear the term "Preventative". What I
would like you to do is to listen to the
disclaimers. If you
don't want the side effects - Don't take the
medication. Most people taking
the drug get the side effects sooner or later, mostly
sooner. Also listen for the disclaimer that is
hard to catch but is there on some ads - you
cannot get off of or at the very least it is
hard to get off of certain drugs. (addictive)
I picked up on this from a "preventative" drug
ad. WOW! what a "get rich quick" scheme.
Notice how many of these
pharmaceuticals are on the market for a short time and
then withdrawn because of serious side effects - such
as heart failure, liver failure and even death.
Moral to the story - Approval by the FDA doesn't
guarantee a safe product.
Heavenly
Father
has
made
our
bodies to heal themselves given the proper
nutrients. The reason that pharmaceuticals all
have side effects is because they take certain
constituents out of the natural herbs etc. to make
their drugs, consequently they are not
balanced. No one can balance anything like
Heavenly Father can. He has provided everything
we need to heal our bodies in herbal and natural
supplements. (There are rascals even in the
Wholistic profession that give us all a bad
name) I feel that the less processed
anything is the better it is for you in almost all
cases because Heavenly Father knows best.
2. Addiction
-
How
to
get
off
of most any drug. (given to me by a
doctor friend after I got hooked on prednisone which I
took a few years ago for extreme
psoriasis/allergy which I got for several
years.) Against my better judgement, however,
being desperate I was put on 30 mgs 3 times
a day for at least 3 months by a dermatologist.
Then he told me I could cut down by taking only 1/2 as
much. Wrong - I could see I was in trouble so I
called my doctor friend and said "Help"! Here is
the way he got me off of it. (My first
pharmaceutical in 30 years - makes me just that more
opposed to their medications)
He lowered my dosage by 5 mgs. once a day for 10 days
and then 5 mgs twice a day for 10 days etc. He
lowered it slightly every 10 days. I found that
at the very end my body didn't want to give up the
last 2 times so I had to go a few days longer.
It is important to listen to your body.
It is easy to prescribe when you don't have to put up
with the side effects which are calculated to keep you
coming back for more. (Greed!) Many
doctors don't know any better because of what they
have been taught in Medical School and those that
know better are not allowed to tell you or they run
the risk of losing their license.
3. Bulletin: "Tylenol Found to Cause
Liver Damage even in Small Doses" NewsTarget,
7/5/06. www.NewsTarget.com A
lot
of
the
above
mentioned
pharmaceutical drugs and others are causing severe liver
problems. (Liver transplants
and/or dialysis) I have known about this for
several years and have tried to warn against Tylenol
otherwise known as acetaminophen before. May
substitute the herb White Willow Bark which is also
an anti-inflammatory and doesn't have the side
effects. Some other
herbs for pain include feverfew (an
anti-inflammatory), meadowsweet, valerian,
passionflower, skullcap, chamomile, and ginkgo.
(Most pain in the body is caused by
inflammation. (check out our herbs
A-Z) The omega-3 fatty acids found in
fish and fish oil supplements have also been shown to
help manage inflammation. Many migraine patients
have been shown to have magnesium
deficiencies.
4. How to recognize when someone is
having a stroke - 3 simple
questions
1 "S"
Ask the person to SMILE
2. "T" Ask the
person to TALK or SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE
(Coherently, i.e. It is sunny out today)
3. "R" Ask him
or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.
Also another 'sign' of
a stroke - Ask them to 'stick' out their
tongue. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes
to one side or the other that is also an indication
of a stroke. If they have trouble with ANY ONE
of these tasks, call 911 immediately and describe
the symptoms to the dispatcher.

Quotes that
make you think! Aaag! Me think?
My body is constantly getting healthy. It
just doesn't seem like it because the abuse of my
addictions outpace my restoration.
I find medicine is the best of all trades because whether you do any good or not you still get your money. (Moliere: "A Physician in Spite of Himself," 1664) The carpenter desires
timber, the physician disease. One-quarter of what you
eat keeps you alive. There is enough in the
world for everyone's need, but not enough for
everyone's greed. Links:

Don't forget prayer and listen to
your body as you take anything. Remember that
even doctors are only practicing.
God Bless each of you in your quest for health. Lynne
