Have you heard the good news? There is a cure for cancer and a cure for AIDS! It’s the same cure and it’s so powerful that it can defeat literally any disease you can imagine. This amazing cure is something you personally have control of – something you can engage regardless of your current stage of health.
Here’s the cure: it’s your very own immune system!
If you’ve been led to believe that courses of drugs can make you well, please ponder this for a moment: Do you believe you can poison yourself to health? Is there any way on the planet that could possibly make sense?
Drugs (prescription or otherwise) are very powerful and the body (and mind) can become addicted to them quickly. If you are currently taking drugs and choose to get off of them, you must do so with a doctor who understands these drugs. If your doctor is not willing to help you do this, I encourage you to find a doctor who will.
It does take energy to learn how to restore your health, yet isn’t it worth the investment? Once you learn how to care for yourself, you can protect your health throughout your life.
Your body was not meant to degenerate and gradually suck the life out of your will to live. Your body was meant to last a lifetime – however you choose to define that.

Living Longer
Are you planning for a happy, healthy and fulfilling life until you die or planning for decline in your old age? Whatever you’re planning for usually shows up.
Sometimes we take on the beliefs of others without even realizing it. Certainly the media has done it’s share to portray older people as helpless, cantankerous, irrational, slow, outdated, unhealthy and sexually undesirable. We just go with the flow - believe it’s inevitable that we, too, will go into physical and mental degeneration as we pass through time. We come to believe that the best we can hope for is to hold back the tide with smoke and mirrors.
Decline is entirely optional. We can choose to live our potential which expands everyday. Or we can choose to degenerate by neglecting ourselves – neglecting our health and our happiness.
If time is the measurer and space is the field, use your time wisely and fill your life with the best you can imagine.
Let’s really LIVE longer – not just take longer to die.

Real Health Insurance
If you think health insurance is more than a medical insurance policy, you’re right!
More than anything, it’s about taking care of ourselves. Real health comes day by day, from the good health habits and habits of thought we practice continually.
All those daily maintenance riturals? Just own ‘em. There’s no way around good health habits like brushing, flossing, exercising, deep breathing, etc. so just embrace them. Prevention is a snap compared to the price of damage control.
And speaking of price, we all like to save money. In the long run, we save more money when we buy the highest quality foods we can afford. Buy organic or wildcrafted, fresh, local and in season foods. You’ll get more flavor and food value, and you’ll be supporting local farmers. Filling up on nutritious foods cuts down on cravings and you might find yourself eating less because you’re eating better. If you can’t find or afford to buy all your produce organic, check out the Environmental Working Group’s produce and pesticide ranking at: http://www.foodnews.org/. You can minimize your exposure to pesticides by avoiding the conventionally grown produce that typically contains the most pesticides. The Environmental Working Group is a not-for-profit, consumer advocacy group whose mission in part is to “ protect public health and the environment”.
So next time you think about health insurance, remember: ultimately, your health depends more on your willingness to take care of yourself and maintain a positive attitude than any other factors.

Spice it up!
Are you interested in an easy and delicious way to increase your antioxidant and nutrition intake? Add herbs and spices to your favorite foods – it’s that simple.
To get the most benefit:
1) Use only organic or wild-crafted herbs and spices. (It’s counter productive to use anything that has been processed and or sprayed.)
2) Use herbs and spices fresh and uncooked. Those dehydrated under 118° are good but fresh herbs and spices are best, particularly if you grow your own.
3) Add herbs and spices at the end of cooking, after you have removed foods from heat. This includes salt and pepper.
If you’re still using salt, consider switching to sea salt or better still, kelp. Powered kelp is a very mineral-rich substitute that will help you forget all about salt.
Cooked black pepper is an irritant (expecially to kidney, liver and gall bladder areas) and irritation causes inflammation. Instead, look for raw peppercorns and grind your own. Freshly ground raw black pepper is delicious, has a tonic effect and even aids digestion.
