Prescription Drugs are Toxic

Did You Know That ALL Prescription Drugs are Toxic?

Toxic means poisonous! That is why pharmaceutical drugs are so closely regulated. And that is also why drugs have so many negative side effects. Nobody is ever deficient in prescription drugs! Prescribing toxins for an already toxic and diseased condition will eventually lead to a more serious disease.

Immediate symptoms may be relieved by prescription drugs, and sometimes they are needed in emergency situations, but most of these drugs cannot remove the underlying cause of the symptoms. Nor can surgery.

* They do not improve nutrition.
* They generally do not remove toxins from the body.
* In fact they add to the toxic load.
* They do not improve the beliefs and thought patterns that attracted the disease in the first place.

In some cases drugs may be temporarily useful to remove parasites, or to deal with pain or other severe symptoms. However, if your doctor tells you that you will have to stay on any drug long term, it’s time to run the other way and look for other options.

What Are the Other Options?

I may not have all the answers you are looking for, but your body does. I can help you get in touch with your Body Awareness so you can recognize the patterns that are not working for you, and get you started moving in the right direction. Often that is all you will need to see great improvements. Sometimes even a simple change in diet, or an EFT session can work wonders.

Here are some things I often recommend:

Asking your body what it wants
Journaling
Lab tests
Changes in your diet
Gentle detox
Infrared sauna
Moderate exercise
Spending time in nature
Natural remedies
Parasite cleanse
EFT – Emotional Freedom Techniques
Massage & Reiki
Dental work
Spinal alignment
Meditation

Your body is always trying to heal itself, but you have to cooperate by giving it what it needs – proper nutrition, freedom from toxins and parasites, relief from stress, and plenty of rest and exercise. My job is to help you discover the root cause of your problems and to support you in supporting your body. I will also offer advice on the best ways to improve your nutrition, relieve emotional stress, and detoxify your body. When you follow through and take the recommended action, your body will naturally heal itself. That is the way nature works.

You will find a lot of free information on my website – HealItAll.com. That may be all you need to turn your life around. But you have to use the information! I have spent over 40 years studying and experimenting with nutrition and healing modalities, so you won’t have to. I urge you to take advantage of the resources provided there. If you feel you need more help or advice, I am here to assist you.

My goal is to:
* help you connect with your body’s own wisdom
* give you the information you need
* encourage you to take action on it
* follow up until you are feeling the best you have felt in years!

I hope you will then share what you learn with others, so more people can enjoy the benefits of living in harmony with nature.

Health Begins in the Colon

Have you ever heard the saying, “Health begins in the colon?” If you have done much reading on nutrition or natural health, it probably sounds familiar, but what does it really mean? The colon may be one of the organs we like to think about least, but it may affect our health more than any other single organ. Our bodies constantly create waste products and dump them into our blood. The liver works hard to filter the toxins out of the blood so they can be eliminated through the colon, but if the colon is not clean and healthy, all those waste products and toxins can be reabsorbed into the blood! That creates a more and more toxic inner environment.

What can we do to prevent this recontamination?

That is where cleansing and probiotic formulas can really help.

  • Probiotics improve the bio-availability of nutrients in the body such as zinc, iron, phosphorus, B vitamins, calcium, copper, and magnesium.
  • Probiotic strain B. infantis can help to normalize bowel function in patients suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
  • Probiotics showed improvements in patients suffering from bloating.
  • Probiotics can help to lower the rate of diarrhea and diaper rash in babies’ consuming infant probiotics.
  • Acidophilus has been shown to aid in reducing intolerance to lactose found in dairy products.
  • Probiotics can help in regulating intestinal transit time of fecal matter and dramatically reduce constipation in the elderly.
  • Probiotics can aid in promoting growth of healthy bacteria in the colon, lowering the conversion of bile into carcinogens.
  • Probiotics can enhance overall immunity by regulating lymphocytes and antibodies in the body.

That’s a lot of benefits! Unfortunately, we can’t just pop a probiotic pill to undo all the poor food choices we make.  We also have to provide the right kind of fiber to feed the good bacteria and keep the colon rollin’. That means lots of  fresh, whole fruits and vegetables. The bad bacteria thrive on refined sugar, white flour products, and undigested proteins from animal products, so it is important to avoid these as much as possible. Plus, every time we take antibiotics we kill off the good organisms along with the bad and upset the delicate balance of our intestinal flora. Always take probiotics while taking antibiotics and for several weeks after.

There are a number of good colon cleanse products available at natural food stores and they are a good place to start, because they will help to clear away the caked on gunk that can line your colon. You can also temporarily use a laxative to get things moving if you are constipated, but long-term use can be dangerous. It is far better to keep things moving by eating plenty of leafy greens to provide enough magnesium and fiber to act as a natural laxative. Ayurvedic Triphala is an excellent choice if you need a laxative, because it is effective, yet it is also good for the digestive system and can be used  on a long-term basis.
