Simple things to ponder and consider for your health, your spirit, and just for fun...

by Doug Fogel

If you had a problem but didn't think about it, where would the problem be?

Is picking an apple off a tree an act of violence?

Don't listen to what people say, watch what they do.

If you really want to know what someone's like, play a round of golf with them.

Another way to see how people really are is to observe how they act when they've had too much to drink.

The number one thing you can do to keep colds and flu away is to wash your hands regularly (especially after shaking hands or touching money).

The number 2 thing is to make sure you get enough Vitamin D (and the best way is to get about 30 minutes of sunshine a day)

The past is like a stinky trash can. Why keep rummaging through it?

To learn how to live, watch kids at play.

The best teachers in life are the people who give you the most grief.

There's no one diet that's right for everyone, no matter what the "goo roos" say.

The easiest way to lose weight is to eat less.

The best way to learn is to listen.

The best thing to pay attention to is how you react to events you perceive as negative.

It's not what happens to you that counts, it's how you react to what happens to you.

What would you like to see engraved on your headstone?

For best nutrition, eat as much of your food raw as you can.

If you have to cook food, cook it on the lowest heat possible and don't overcook it.

You can't stop annoying thoughts, but you can stop identifying with them.

You can grow old gracefully, doing what you want right up to your dying day.

Taking drugs for illness is like putting tape over your "check engine" light.

If the contraindications of the drug you've been prescribed take up an entire magazine page, think twice about taking it.

Herbs for the Medicine Cabinet

from Chet Day

Here are some herbs that are easily found in most stores that should be stocked in your medicine cabinet along with your various ointments and creams.

Some of these really come in handy when you have children in your home.

Cayenne

Cayenne should always be on hand for a variety of uses. Pour the powder from a gelcap or kitchen herb seasoning bottle onto wounds to stop bleeding, swallow the capsules for internal bleeding and shock while you wait for emergency personnel.

Also excellent for using internally for allergic reactions to stings and bites.

Garlic

Always keep garlic on hand.

Capsule or oil forms keep the longest, but keeping fresh raw bulbs around is a good idea too.

If you use garlic in capsule form, make sure it's 100% true garlic.

Anything which says "odor free" has the primary healing ingredient removed, so the garlic will be useless for medicinal purposes.

Garlic can be used externally and internally.

It may help with pain from ear infections and sore throats, can sterilize wounds, and will kill fungus infections such as athlete's feet, thrush, and vaginal yeast infections.

Comfrey

Comfrey is a healing herb which will start new cell growth very quickly. Keeping this on hand in salve form is best, so you can apply it to any wounds, cuts or scrapes as needed.

You can make a salve with crushed leaves in a base of Vaseline.

Comfrey promotes healing extremely quickly; so take care when using it on open wounds.

Be sure the wound is cleaned very well before applying the comfrey salve, or you'll end up with bacteria and germs trapped below the new skin that's generated.

Adding a bit of goldenseal to the comfrey salve helps prevent infections and adds to the healing process as well.

Comfrey salve is also quite useful for pulled tendons and ligaments, and to help broken bones heal more quickly.

Goldenseal

This is a powerful herbal antibiotic which can be used both internally and externally.

Most often it's used internally to fight infections, but used in salve form it will also help heal wounds, and prevent or treat infections.

Golden seal root is more powerful than the leaves and stems, but both work well.

Note: diabetics should avoid goldenseal, because it's a natural source of insulin.

Echinacea

This herb is excellent for use with preventing the flu, or similar glandular or throat related infections and problems.

Echinacea can also be used at the beginning of a cold, to help reduce the symptoms and length of time it lasts.

White Willow

A natural herb used for pain relief, this can replace standard aspirin or other name brand pain relievers.

White willow is also an anti-inflamatory herb, so it can be used for things like headaches or arthritis pain without the side effects and risks associated with synthetic pain relievers.

Pain Relief in the Produce Aisle

from, The Healthy Back Institute

If you’re looking for pain relief you might find it at your local grocery store. Not in the pharmacy or over-the-counter medicine aisle, but discreetly tucked into the produce section.

The people of Guadeloupe introduced Christopher Columbus to this tasty tropical healer in 1493, but native South and Central American tribes had discovered its amazing attributes long before he sailed in. Today we call it the pineapple.

What makes the pineapple special are enzymes found throughout the plant called bromelain. Bromelain is a protease, or proteolytic enzyme, which means it breaks down protein. That’s why you’ll find it commonly used as a meat tenderizer.

You may be thinking tenderizing your already sore muscles is the last thing you want. But there’s another type of protein bromelain eats up too. It’s a protein called Circulating Immune Complex (CIC). Let me explain.

Our cells talk to each other through receptors. When we’re injured they tell our immune system to produce CIC proteins. The CICs are rushed to the scene of injury or irritation. Pain signals are generated to alert your body to trouble while inflammatory substances are called to build a protective wall around the injured area. These continue until our body sends proteolytic enzymes to counteract the CIC-induced inflammation.

The problem is our body may not produce enough proteolytic enzymes to tell the CICs to stop producing pain and inflammation when they should. That’s because by our mid-20s production of proteolytic enzymes drops off dramatically leaving us vulnerable to runaway inflammation. Left unchecked, inflammation increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, arthritis and dementia related disorders like Alzheimer’s. It causes hidden damage to tissues and organs throughout your body. And it just plain makes it harder for our bodies to heal and stop hurting.

Fortunately there’s a simple answer. Since the cause of runaway inflammation is a lack of proteolytic enzymes, the natural response is to get more of those into our system. That’s why pineapple with its natural proteolytic enzymes in the form of bromelain is such a great find. Eating pineapple increases the supply of proteolytic enzymes present in your body. You do have to eat the pineapple raw though. Cooking or heating destroys the enzymes’ effectiveness. This means canned pineapple won’t work either.

The highest concentration of bromelain is found in the stem of the plant. I’ll admit you would have to really love pigging out on tough raw pineapple stems every day to get the most benefit. Or you can just take a proteolytic enzyme supplement with bromelain harvested from pineapple by peeling and crushing the stem then purified and dried into a powder form to be taken orally without getting the sore mouth.

By the way, pineapple isn’t the only source of proteolytic enzymes. You can also find them in papaya (papain), figs (ficin) and kiwi fruit (actinidin). Good supplements will usually combine various forms of the enzymes for maximum effect. Restoring your body’s proteolytic enzyme levels will go a long ways towards reducing inflammation and ending chronic pain.

It Always Pays To Have A Good Attitude

Attitude plays a big part in your chance of getting colds, flues, and other illnesses. Eating right, getting plenty of rest, and taking care of your body are important, of course, but thinking healthy is also important.

If negative thoughts invade your mind, banish them. Replace them with positive thoughts and feelings about yourself and keep on telling yourself that you are good and worthy. This good attitude seems to give us the added strength to fight off illnesses more easily. Some people do not know it but even the slightest negative thoughts have a greater impact on you and last longer than powerful positive thoughts.

Researchers now know that the mental attitude one has plays a definite role in the body's immune system and its ability to fight off illnesses. A positive attitude won't cure you of all illnesses and it can't take the place of your doctor, but it can help you get better.

There are times when things are lousy, no doubt about it. This happens to everybody. Be optimistic along with being positive about yourself. Don't blame yourself for things that go wrong, and don't blame others either. Check into what you can do differently and work towards improving things for yourself and others.

In everything you attempt, always be the best you can be. And remember if a job is worth doing, it's worth your best effort. Put time and attention into the small jobs as well as the bigger ones. You can reflect on some of your happy and successful experiences. Remember some of the actions you took, what you said to yourself and why things turned out as they did. And without boasting, take those past achievements as a legitimate part of your identity. Let others know about your accomplishments too, and encourage them to undertake difficult tasks as well.

When you are worried about how something will turn out, ask yourself what is the worst that could possibly happen. Very few things are really life and earth matters and we all tend to over-react when it comes to worrying. Don't feel sorry for yourself. People who feel sorry for themselves have a tired and worn out look, walking as if they have the world on their shoulders, rarely smiling or laughing. On the other hand, people who feel good about themselves seem to walk tall and stand straight, looking alive and alert. They're attractive and nice to be around and everybody wants to get to know them.

Treat your life as a learning experience. None of us are born knowing all that we need to know, and none of us ever knows enough. We can all benefit from looking at each experience as an opportunity to learn and to become wiser.

Your attitude plays a big part in how you feel.

Apples Will Keep You Happy

Researchers now tell us that grandma was right when she said an apple a day would keep the doctor away! The apple is now being called the all-round health food.

Nutritionists suggest that eating two or three apples a day can boost the body's protection against heart disease, thanks to the fruit's amazing ability to reduce blood pressure and lower dangerously high cholesterol levels. In fact, they say, the higher the cholesterol, the greater the benefits will be if you increase your consumption of apples.

Apples are known for many potent healing powers and they contain chemicals scientists believe may fight certain types of cancer. The reason appears to be that apples are loaded with natural acids that have successfully blocked cancer formation in laboratory studies.

Remember that to get the best health benefit, you have to eat the whole thing, skin and all. The skin contains the high level of pectin fiber, which seems to be the basis for the fruit's amazing power to lower cholesterol or blood pressure, balance blood sugar content and fight off cancer.

Apples are an excellent food source for diabetics and others who need to control blood sugar levels. They rank high among foods that best control blood sugar. Even though the apple is a rich source of natural sugar, something about its content does not cause a rapid, often dangerous rise in blood sugar. also, it prevents the body from pumping out too much insulin which, in turn, helps bring down blood cholesterol and blood pressure.

Whole apples (as opposed to just the juice) are great for dieters. They suppress appetite without robbing the body of necessary nutrients. The rise in blood glucose levels that occurs when you eat an apple makes you feel fuller.

Apple juice also helps keep you healthy and helps the healing process - especially if you're suffering from colds or viruses. People who eat apples regularly have far fewer colds and upper respiratory problems. And researchers have noted that apple eaters also suffered far fewer stress-related illnesses.

The apple may also be the only healing food capable of taking care of two opposite complaints at the same time - constipation and diarrhea.

First apples or applesauce have been used for centuries to help people get back on a regular diet after suffering bouts of diarrhea. The pectin in the apple fiber apparently is the healing factor, which explains why it is included in one of the popular over-the-counter diarrhea remedies. Also, that same fiber is what dietitians have been telling us for decades is necessary to keep us regular and to prevent constipation.

Finally, apples are not only a super healing food, but, as nature's original toothbrushes, they may even prevent cavities, a fact that many of our ancestors probably learned through trial and error, but that modern day researchers have confirmed in the laboratory.

One group of scientists doing a recent study found that apples actually helped clean teeth among a control group of children and therefore significantly cut down on the risk of tooth decay.
