When I first get up in the morning I take care of the basics and then go out to my gym.  No matter how stiff and painful I feel, I will rebound very lightly and within five minutes I feel better.  Normally I will rebound lightly for five minutes, more aggressively for the next five and the then quite aggressively the last five.  Knowing how important our lymphatic system is, I have a feeling of well-being after I finish… From this point I do weights, and then finish with my inversion table to stretch my spine similar to traction [this was my pain medications for about 5 years of my recovery]!

After over twenty years, my re-bounder finally gave out…  I had a client that bought a Cellerciser so I looked into it, met David Hall and understood why his patented design is so good for us.  Since I have used the Cellerciser [check out some stories] I have seen changes in my body that are exciting; namely lean muscle development and contouring… Compared to my old one this has numerous design benefits that are unique.  Remember that you will flex every muscle in your body many times each minute!  If this is too pricey try to purchase one that will hold your weight and talks about the strength characteristics of the unit.

For those that have not seen the original post on rebounding it’s below…

Twenty five years ago I learned that we had over two times more lymphatic fluid than we have blood!  What are these lymphatic vessels, lymph fluid and lymph nodes that make up our lymphatic system?  Well along with your spleen the lymphatic system carries the white blood cells made in your bone marrow that defend you against germs.  Your bone marrow and thymus produce the cells in lymph.  They are all part of this important system…

Remember the blister on your heel?  It had clear fluid – that’s lymphatic fluid.  This fluid bathes every cell and ensures that they are able to get the care that they need.  The lymphatic system helps clear away infections and keeps your body fluids in balance.  When it’s not working properly (becoming toxic and sludge) fluid will build up in tissue and the nodes will swell called “swollen glands“.  The result of sludge fluid and a toxic lymph system is infections, leading to the worst – cancer.  The lymphatic system is the ‘garbage collector’ sucking up metabolic garbage and toxins from extracellular fluid of every organ! Critically important!

So how do we ensure that we keep our lymph fluids clean and flowing?  I want to talk about rebounding on a small trampoline.  You can Google ‘rebounding’ and get a ton of information that will be very helpful.  While you’re looking into that you can also search ‘body brushing’ – this is also another effective way to move lymph fluids.  Rebounding is by far the most effective.  I am able to rebound even though I fractured my back 11 years ago and had severe spinal column damage…

You don’t even have to be jumping off of the material on the small trampoline or rebounder – just keep your heals on the material and start to move your arms like a turkey trying to fly.  Start slowly when starting for just a minute or two and later work up to 10 -15 minutes a day.  On the bottom cycle you will compress waste into the fluid and on the top of the cycle you will manually open the one way valves of the lymph vessels and move fluid into and through the lymph nodes – the lymphatic filters.  This opening and closing of the valves will move fluid through the nodes and accomplish a very important function.

My wife and I have been rebounding for over twenty years and I believe that it is probably the single most important reason for our health!  In our 70’s we don’t use any prescription drugs.

Remember when kids start bouncing on the bed?  The more they bounced the happier they got!  That’s because they were producing endorphins…  When you rebound after about 5 minutes you will begin to produce endorphins and this will bring your mood up to a pleasing level.  When I am having a difficult day I rebound numerous times…

Remember, there are few things that you can do that would be better for your immune system than rebounding on a small trampoline.   There are all kinds available from elaborate to simple inexpensive ones.  A moderately priced one would probably be better than the cheapest one.  Enjoy this experience and make it a permanent part of your daily routine.  It will insure you a long healthy life!  Be blessed.  Educate yourself and live!  Remember we are on our own!

Some people left their car in the long-term parking at San Jose while away, and someone broke into the car. Using the information on the car’s registration in the glove compartment, they drove the car to the people’s home in Pebble Beach and robbed it. So I guess if we are going to leave the car in long-term parking, we should NOT leave the registration/insurance cards in it, nor your remote garage door opener.

This gives us something to think about with all our new electronic technology.

2. GPS.

Someone had their car broken into while they were at a football game. Their car was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and specially allotted to football fans. Things stolen from the car included a garage door remote control, some money and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard.

When the victims got home, they found that their house had been ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen. The thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house. They then used the garage remote control to open the garage door and gain entry to the house.

The thieves knew the owners were at the football game, they knew what time the game was scheduled to finish and so they knew how much time they had to clean out the house. It would appear that they had brought a truck to empty the house of its contents.

Something to consider if you have a GPS – don’t put your home address in it… Put a nearby address (like a store or gas station) so you can still find your way home if you need to, but no one else would know where you live if your GPS were stolen.

3. CELL PHONES

I never thought of this…….

This lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on her cell phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which contained her cell phone, credit card, wallet, etc., was stolen. 20 minutes later when she called her hubby, from a pay phone telling him what had happened, hubby says ‘I received your text asking about our Pin number and I’ve replied a little while ago.’

When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen cell phone to text ‘hubby’ in the contact list and got hold of the pin number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account.

Moral of the lesson:

a. Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list. Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad, Mom, etc….

b. And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked through texts, CONFIRM by calling back.

c. Also, when you’re being texted by friends or family to meet them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came from them. If you don’t reach them, be very careful about going places to meet ‘family and friends’ who text you.

ASSUME NOTHING – QUESTION EVERYTHNG!

I wrote about hemp on my blog in 2010 covering the industrial uses and also the food value of hemp.   In this post I want to discuss the medical value of medical marijuana/cannabis!  Please start by watching the brief video by Dr. David Allen who is a retired cardiac surgeon who learned about THC and CBD’s [the chemical components of cannabis].  After watching his comments you will be more prepared to comprehend the magnitude of what I will be discussing.

Having been a health coach for 30+ years now, I have learned that just nutritional supplementation will NOT keep us from getting the aggressive diseases that we’re confronted with every day.  I have also learned that God has made our bodies healing system complete, IF it has the tools from foods that we eat.  In my opinion the help/aid that supplements bring to the table can be defensive/preventative weapons; however, very few IF ANY will be OFFENSIVE WEAPONS!

Since the industrial giants have ruined our farm lands and foods we have a very difficult time getting “foods that heal”!  As you have seen from Dr. Allen’s video hemp/cannabis is a plant that heals!  There is no doubt about this fact.  The research available is without question as to the healing characteristics of THC [+THCA] and CBD [cannabinoids].  It should be noted that the plant juiced green and/or consumed before heated or aged has NO psychotic affect – YET it is very powerful medicine!! There is a company in Colorado that has the CBD medicine made from industrial hemp [this is a legal product] with potent medicine!

Since I live in California [as in 16 other States] we have the ability to access or grow small amounts of the plants and have learned to make the essential oils of cannabis called Delta 9 [also called RSO oils].  Please watch the movie “Run from the Cure” by Rick Simpson who has taught the world about the medicinal oils available to all of us.

During these past four years we have seen this medicine/oils help many people… topical skin challenges, sleep challenges, serious internal tumor issues, neurotransmitter/nerve issues, cognitive abilities, just to mention a few.  This is also probably the best anti-aging substance on the planet!

It’s important to note that most ‘conservative’ people have a mental block when this topic comes up… that’s ok; just remember that you cannot even become a critic or skeptic UNTIL you have researched/studied the topic!  Einstein said “to condemn before investigation is the height of ignorance”

Ignoring this simple plant could cost you and/or your loved ones their lives.  Chemo, radiation and surgery success is dismal.  Some 87% of oncologists said that they would never use their medicine!

Times are changing regarding hemp [this should be the largest cash crop in the country] and farming.  There are 27 States that have petitioned the government to allow farms to grow the industrial hemp.  Please read my post about the uses of industrial hemp on my blog.  One that I love is that Henry Ford built a car body that you could NOT dent even with a sledge hammer!

I guarantee you that if American History had been told/taught properly; about the Louisiana Purchase and the War of 1812 and the role that industrial hemp played – it would have been a VERY interesting topic!  I would not have been as bored!

Please remember; if you ever have any questions please call or write.  Be well, educate yourself and live!

 As the year draws to a close, we revisit five of the top Investigator Tips shared during 2012.

1.      Nurture a Healthy Identity Theft Mindset.

Know that it can happen to you. We’ve taken calls from people who believed they couldn’t become a victim of identity theft. Their reasons: “I don’t use credit”; “I shred everything”; “I have bad credit”; “Everything’s in my spouse’s name”; and so on. The fact is anyone can become a victim and everyone needs to take steps to reduce their risk.

2.      Help Yourself to Strong Passwords.

Avoid the simple, widely-used choices for passwords. “12345,” “123456,” and “123456789” were the top three most common passwords found when 32 million passwords exposed by a social network hack were analyzed. The other passwords in the list of the top ten were: “iloveyou,” “princess,” “rockyou,” “1234567,” “12345678,” and “abc123.”

3.      The “Why” Behind the Tip.

Know when account statements arrive, and check them when received. If a statement doesn’t arrive as usual, it may mean that someone has called the financial institution involved, posed as you, changed the address on the account, and requested a new card. Call your financial institution to inquire about any late statements; ask if changes to the account were made recently.

4.      Take Steps to Secure Your Mobile Apps.

If your mobile device is lost or stolen, react quickly to minimize damage caused by unauthorized access to information on the device. Install a program that allows you to remotely wipe data from the device if it is lost or stolen.

5.      Beware of IRS-Themed Scams.

Do not respond to email messages that appear to be from the Internal Revenue Service. The IRS does not send taxpayers unsolicited emails about their tax accounts nor does it request detailed personal information through email.  Also beware of PayPal, Citi Corp other banks etc.

These materials are derived from the research and discovery activities of Kroll Advisory Solutions Fraud Specialists and Licensed Investigators, and have been gathered from personal, historical, and aggregated experience performing specialized restoration services on behalf of Identity Theft victims.  More information about ID and Legal protection.

Have you ever signed a contract that should have been reviewed?  Had a warranty challenge unresolved? The IRS decides to audit you?  Need a letter written on your behalf by an attorney?  You receive a speeding ticket!  You don’t have an up-to-date will!  Your teenager is accused of shoplifting.  Your dog bites a passerby.  You are subpoenaed.  You are called to jury duty.  Your landlord refuses to refund your cleaning deposit.  You decide to adopt.  Your neighbor’s dog barks all night.  Your teenager receives a speeding ticket.  Your identity is compromised or stolen.

The list goes on and on!  Most of these challenges are never brought to an attorney, BECAUSE at $300+ per hour it is NOT in our financial consciousness!  The “killer stress” that comes from a legal challenge can be overwhelming!  Fortunately there is a simple solution.  Its call Legal Shield.  When you become a member virtually all of the items mentioned above are available to you and your spouse for a small monthly fee.

Here is a simple example; I had an issue several months ago – I knew some of the answers, however, if I would have called my attorney to confirm and/or answer my questions it would have cost me at least $300 – $500.  I called my Legal Shield law firm late on a Friday afternoon - gave them my information and was told that someone would call me in the next 8 hours.  I assumed that it would be done Monday.  To my delight two hours later an attorney called - we talked for about 1/2 hour and all my questions were answered.  My entire year’s membership in Legal Shield was paid for with this one call.  I am also preparing the documents to update our wills – also covered under my membership.  I also have 24/7 emergency access to a Legal Shield attorney [they will answer within three rings].  This gives me such peace of mind especially for my wife in the evening hours!

Having been a health coach for the past 30 years I have seen time and time again how much destruction stress causes.  The damage done to our immune systems is absolute.  We all carry fire insurance, car insurance, and hopefully have health insurance…  HOWEVER, the vast majority cannot afford legal protection!  Legal Shield provides complete protection with legal access and also full ID Identity protection for a small monthly membership fee of $35.95 or less [varies among States].

Just a word about ID Theft… this is when someone uses you Social Security Number, license, medical information or financial transactions without your permission, ID Theft is one of the fastest growing crimes in North America today, almost 1/4 of all victims did not discover the crime for at least SIX months after it started!

If you have or are familiar with Life Lock here is a revelation that I learned about them – for all practical purposes LL MONITORS YOUR ‘credit’, however, when it comes to “repairing” your identity after it is stolen, you will be on your own.  The limit on their “insurance policy” is confusing at best.  The fines levied on LL by the Attorneys General in Arizona are for real reasons.  On the other hand, Legal Shield uses Kroll Advisory Services – the world’s largest risk management companies.  It not only monitors your identity, it will put into motion the repair necessary.

About 10 years ago I was involved with Legal Shield and recently decided to re-engage.  My adding LS to my folio of offensive/defensive tools make so much sense.  Since our stress loads are the largest component of getting a disease, we need to be proactive and eliminate one more level of attack/risk.  If you have any questions about Legal Shield please let me know.  If you would be interested in sharing these tools with your family/friends and/or associates please check out this as an additional income potential.

Be well and remember when it comes to our health and wellness we cannot rely on government agencies or the medical establishment!  We are really on our own.  Educate yourself and Live!

What does it take to be a self survivalist?  It takes more than just supplies and information; it takes a mindset that will take us out of the ‘box’ that we live in and enter into an open minded place that will not be satisfied with status quo…  Know one thing; we are on our own!

When you evaluate emergencies of various sorts we see patterns that seem to always reoccur.  The common risk elements are usually related to FEAR!  Fear of the known and the unknown…

Fear can be replaced with calm/peace when you are prepared and trained.  Knowledge will help however, without the experience of a successful or even failed event you will never know how you will respond/react!

It is critical for you all to know that you MUST practice and plan for difficult events.  When you see the results of how most people have prepared for disasters you can see why this process should be taken seriously. 

Where do you start?  Take a blank piece of paper and draw a line down the middle top to bottom.  List the weaknesses on the left and the strengths on the right.  Then think about a scenario where you will NOT be able to leave your home for three weeks…

List the various ingredients of your strengths and weakness’ and you will have a good picture of how you could fare.  The goal would be to NOT have to rely on Government agencies help during the first weeks of a challenge.

My list starts with personal safety, if someone attacks me and my family it won’t matter if I’m getting ill/sick.  The question is what will work for you?  Do you have most of these items?

PLEASE NOTE THIS ADDITION: 5/29/2012 - I am in the process of investigating some new [to me] information about “dirty electricity”.  Stetzer Electric [Dave Stetzer] has done much research about this topic.  The reality is that our corporate power utilities have ‘bastardized’ our utility grid and have used the common [white wire] and ground wires [green wire] as one!  The result of this is that for some [fortunately not me] being ‘connected’ to earth in the USA may NOT be good in fact may be very risky!  We have seen many people sleeping this way without apparent ill effects for about 7 years, however, we did see a very small number of people having difficulties.  I did not understand why at the time – now I believe that Stetzer’s research has the answer.

Since my main interest/need to being “connected” is receiving the flow of free electrons to keep my inflammation at a minimum, [I must get the free electrons into my body during the night time or my pinched nerves will become swollen and create substantial debilitating pain] I have now changed the way I am “connected”.  I am currently DISCONNECTED from the earth and have switched over to my “battery system” [see the posts in the inflammation topics].  My wife and I definitely can tell an improvement in how we feel in the morning time; better sleep and less back stiffness – just feel sharper! I will continue to study Stetzer’s work and comment further at a later time.  This revelation makes me quite disturbed yet I must pursue the truth to where ever it leads me!  Be blessed!

It was a very windy day in 2001 and I was invited to go paragliding… being 60 years old at the time I was excited about the prospects of flying.  Six months earlier I had gone to a paragliding school and learned how to take off and land.  It was great fun!

Had I been a pilot of a small plane, I would have had a check list and would not have proceeded if things were out of order.  It was a blistery morning with gusts of wind that got your attention.  Instead of telling me to pass for the day, my mind got more excited!  I guess the “3rd puberty” thing was working again . I was also having trouble remembering what to do from the training…

Well I took off nicely, went into the ‘cruising’ position and enjoyed quite a ride.  On my way to the target landing, I looked up to check the position of the sail and when I looked down – I hit the GROUND!  OMG! When I recovered a bit and realized that I could feel my toes, I knew that I had survived a very serious crash!

I was in considerable pain so I had x-rays taken and saw that I had broken L5 (lower back).  Not wanting to go to the hospital (reasons of survival) I rested for a number of weeks and thought that I had gotten through the crisis.

Some weeks later after a swimming incident that once again was a result of “that puberty thing” I began to have considerable pain radiating down my leg.  Really bad pain! I had an MRI done and saw an ugly picture of discs and vertebras’.  I had one disc out 4mm in one direction with 8mm of the disc hanging down facing the nerve root. I knew I was in trouble!  The doctor that had cared for me for 27 years would not touch me!  I was very afraid!

I went to the VA and met who turned out to be a miracle surgeon – he knew what needed to be done but for some reason he wanted to wait! I was very unhappy at the time; however, it turned out to be a “miracle” moment.  This gave me time to re-think the vertebrae fusion and focused me back to God and healing. During the next four years I used everything that I had ever learned as a health coach (prayer, serious nutrition, aromatherapy, frequencies, inversion, chi machine, acupuncture, chiropractic, massage, vibration therapy, and numerous others) and from a medical perspective I did well.  From a personal perspective I didn’t have a life! I was afraid of everything and had no idea of limits – I was miserable.

Now for the real miracle! My dear friend Sheila Curtiss introduced me to Clint Ober and his discovery of “Earthing“. [Please see NOTE at the end of this [post]   Simply put, he discovered what happens when our bare feet touch the earth. When he explained that we “pull” free electrons into our bodies from the earth, I went crazy!  I knew that “free electrons” were anti-oxidants that could knockout “free radicals” and that might reduce my nerve inflammation.  If my S1 nerve was inflamed and out of control I was on a morphine drip!

To make a long story shorter, my workout this morning (four years later) was as aggressive as before I broke my back!  There was no bedding product available then, so I used conductive patches with wires going out a hole in my wall to a stake in the ground.  Today I sleep in sheets with woven silver yarn and the silver is connected to a wire that goes to ground in my wall socket.  It’s like sleeping on the beach all night!

I have slept without inflammation in my body for over seven years now and loving it.  We should have never been disconnected for the earth with the plastics and polymers that we are surrounded with these past 50 years.  When was the last time you touched the earth? If you have any questions please contact me – I have become an expert in this area.  Be well

In October of 2001, my sister started getting very sick She had stomach spasms and she was having a hard time getting around. Walking was a major chore. It took everything she had just to get out of bed; she was in so much pain.

By March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and muscle biopsies and was on 24 various prescription medications. The doctors could not determine what was wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and so sick she just knew she was dying.

She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her oldest daughter’s name, and made sure that her younger children were to be taken care of.

She also wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to Florida (basically in a wheelchair) for March 22nd.

On March 19, I called her to ask how her most recent tests went, and she said they didn’t find anything on the test, but they believe she had MS.

I recalled an article a friend of mine e-mailed to me and I asked my sister if she drank diet soda? She told me that she did. As a matter of fact, she was getting ready to crack one open that moment.

I told her not to open it, and to stop drinking the diet soda! I e-mailed her an article my friend, a lawyer, had sent. My sister called me within 32 hours after our phone conversation and told me she had stopped drinking the diet soda AND she could walk! The muscle spasms went away. She said she didn’t feel 100% but, she sure felt a lot better.

She told me she was going to her doctor with this article and would call me when she got home.

Well, she called me, and said her doctor was amazed! He is going to call all of his MS patients to find out if they consumed artificial sweeteners of any kind. In a nutshell, she was being poisoned by the Aspartame in the diet soda.. and literally dying a slow and miserable death.

When she got to Florida March 22, all she had to take was one pill, and that was a pill for the Aspartame poisoning! She is well on her way to a complete recovery. And she is walking! No wheelchair! This article saved her life.

If it says ‘SUGAR FREE’ on the label; DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!

I have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on ‘ASPARTAME,’ marketed as ‘Nutra Sweet,’ ‘Equal,’ and ‘Spoonful.’

In the keynote address by the EPA, it was announced that in the United States in 2001 there is an epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus. It was difficult to determine exactly what toxin was causing this to be rampant. I stood up and said that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject.

I will explain why Aspartame is so dangerous: When the temperature of this sweetener exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in ASPARTAME converts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in turn causes metabolic acidosis. Formic acid is the poison found in the sting of fire ants. The methanol toxicity mimics, among other conditions, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus.

Many people were being diagnosed in error. Although multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence, Methanol toxicity is!

Systemic lupus has become almost as rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially with Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers.

The victim usually does not know that the Aspartame is the culprit. He or she continues its use; irritating the lupus to such a degree that it may become a life-threatening condition. We have seen patients with systemic lupus become asymptotic, once taken off diet sodas.

In cases of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, most of the symptoms disappear. We’ve seen many cases where vision loss re- turned and hearing loss improved markedly.

This also applies to cases of tinnitus and fibromyalgia. During a lecture, I said, ‘If you are using ASPARTAME (Nutra Sweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc) and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting pains, numbness in your legs,
Cramps,
Vertigo,
Dizziness,
Headaches,
Tinnitus,
Joint pain,
Unexplainable depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss you probably have ASPARTAME poisoning!’ People were jumping up during the lecture saying,’I have some of these symptoms. Is it reversible?’

Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
STOP drinking diet sodas and be alert for Aspartame on food labels! Many products are fortified with it! This is a serious problem. Dr. Espart (one of my speakers) remarked that so many people seem to be symptomatic for MS and during his recent visit to a hospice; a nurse stated that six of her friends, who were heavy Diet Coke addicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond coincidence!

Diet soda is NOT a diet product! It is a chemically altered, multiple SODIUM (salt) and ASPARTAME containing product that actually makes you crave carbohydrates.

It is far more likely to make you GAIN weight!

These products also contain formaldehyde, which stores in the fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs. Formaldehyde is an absolute toxin and is used primarily to preserve ’tissue specimens.’

Many products we use every day contain this chemical but we SHOULD NOT store it IN our body!

Dr. H. J. Roberts stated in his lectures that once free of the ’diet products’ and with no significant increase in exercise; his patients lost an average of 19 pounds over a trial period.

Aspartame is especially dangerous for diabetics. We found that some physicians, who believed that they had a patient with retinopathy, in fact, had symptoms caused by Aspartame. The Aspartame drives the blood sugar out of control. Thus diabetics may suffer acute memory loss due to the fact that aspartic acid and phenylalanine are NEUROTOXIC when taken without the other amino acids necessary for a good balance.

Treating diabetes is all about BALANCE. Especially with diabetics, the Aspartame passes the blood/brain barrier and it then deteriorates the neurons of the brain; causing various levels of brain damage, Seizures, Depression, Manic depression, Panic attacks,Uncontrollable anger and rage.

Consumption of Aspartame causes these same symptoms in non-diabetics as well. Documentation and observation also reveal that thousands of children diagnosed with ADD and ADHD have had complete turnarounds in their behavior when these chemicals have been removed from their diet.

So called ‘behavior modification prescription drugs’ (Ritalin and others) are no longer needed.Truth be told, they were never NEEDED in the first place!

Most of these children were being ‘poisoned’ on a daily basis with the very foods that were ‘better for them than sugar.’

It is also suspected that the Aspartame in thousands of pallets of diet Coke and diet Pepsi consumed by men and women fighting in the Gulf War, may be partially to blame for the well-known Gulf War Syndrome.

Dr. Roberts warns that it can cause birth defects, i.e. mental retardation, if taken at the time of conception and during early pregnancy. Children are especially at risk for neurological disorders and should NEVER be given artificial sweeteners.

There are many different case histories to relate of children suffering grand mal seizures and other neurological disturbances talking about a plague of neurological diseases directly caused by the use of this deadly poison.’

Herein lies the problem: There were Congressional Hearings when Aspartame was included in 100 different products and strong objection was made concerning its use. Since this initial hearing, there have been two subsequent hearings, and still nothing has been done.The drug and chemical lobbies have very deep pockets.

Sadly, MONSANTO’S patent on Aspartame has EXPIRED! There are now over 5,000 products on the market that contain this deadly chemical and there will be thousands more introduced. Everybody wants a ’piece of the Aspartame pie.’

I assure you that MONSANTO, the creator of Aspartame, knows how deadly it is.

And isn’t it ironic that MONSANTO funds, among others, the American Diabetes Association, the American Dietetic Association and the Conference of the American College of Physicians?

This has been recently exposed in the New York Times. These [organizations] cannot criticize any additives or convey their link to MONSANTO because they take money from the food industry and are required to endorse their products.

Senator Howard Metzenbaum wrote and presented a bill that would require label warnings on products containing Aspartame, especially regarding pregnant women, children and infants.

The bill would also institute independent studies on the known dangers and the problems existing in the general population regarding seizures, changes in brain chemistry, neurologicuoT changes and behavioural symptoms.

The bill was killed.

It is known that the powerful drug and chemical lobbies are responsible for this, letting loose the hounds of disease and death on an unsuspecting and uninformed public. Well, you’re informed now!

I agreed to conduct a four month test by oil pulling at least 75% of the time.  I pulled for 15 minutes each day, rinsed out and then brushed with a combination of Zeolite and baking soda [the same as I did with the silver].  When I returned to the dentist for the cleaning and analysis, I was hoping that things had improved…  she spent quite a bit of time measuring the depth of gum pockets and inflammation.  I have numerous implants which are quite difficult to maintain so they are always a problem.  She spent what seemed to be a long time on one problem quadrant so I assumed that the problem she saw last time was still an issue.  It turned out that she was amazed that just the opposite was true!

Her conclusion was that the difference was quite astounding!  The inflammation and bleeding was almost zero while the pockets were much shallower!  This was prove positive that the experiment during these past four months was 100% successful.  I will be “oil pulling” from here on!  The number of medical challenges that “oil pulling” can impact can be seen here!  Below is my original post.

A few years ago I was experiencing a “makeover” of my mouth… here I was in my late sixties with braces on, preparing for numerous implants and bone surgery -  Not a happy time.   An associate of mine sent an article about Oil Pulling.  Reading about this topic I decided to try doing this oil pulling process.  It just happened that I had completed one of my 3 month teeth cleaning sessions and this was a perfect time to start.  I was especially attracted to trying this, since they claimed that doing this for months could make my teeth firmer in my jaw bones.

Each morning I put a tablespoon of sunflower oil in my mouth and “pulled” it through my teeth and gums for about 15 minutes.  Not really unpleasant, just a bit of a funny sensation since my mouth was also filling with saliva.  After the time period I spit it out (it was now a milky white color), rinsed my mouth with water and then brushed my teeth.  I did this for months and then went to my scheduled teeth cleaning appointment.

My regular technician inspected my mouth and asked if I had come in since my last appointment?  No, I answered – why?  She said that my teeth were 90% free of tarter and my gums looked better than she had ever seen!  Wow, that was probably the first time in twenty years that I actually had good news from a dental office!

Another observation occurred by my dentist in the ensuing months.  He observed that there was a substantial increase in my saliva production.  This is a very healthy sign.  Also my teeth were definitely very firm in the bone.

As you study the information about Oil Pulling see pdf of Oil pulling you will see the opinions of this Indian doctor and he is serious about the benefits.  I don’t know much more than what I have read so you will have to be your own judge.  Interestingly watch this Ad for Oil Pulling shown in India.

Oil Pulling is very safe, very inexpensive, simple and for me very effective.  You be the judge for yourself.  Sometimes these decisions can be very fruitful!  Be blessed
