Stinkin Thinkin

In Chiropractic we refer to the blockage of normal energy flow within the nervous system via the spine as..........subluxation. We recognize that there are primarily (3) forms of stress that will cause "subluxation." Subluxation = diminished healing, diminished health, etc. because there is diminished homeostasis...........or your ability to efficiently adapt to your environment (i.e. you shiver when its cold, get a fever to heal an illness.............yes, fever is normal and good 99% of the time!)

Subluxation is caused by: negative thoughts, traumas, and toxins. Guess which one we see the most of in any health institution? Nope, not those nasty car accidents and injuries causing back pain. * It's the "stinkin thinkin!" Therefore in Chiropractic circles we say that that largest "subluxtion" is almost between the patient's ears! How could any person ever perceive better health if they can't at least initially conceive the idea in the first place. If you can't visualize something, obviously you will never have it. Any person that is ill, MUST at least "hope" and conceive of the idea that they could be healthy and that they would choose health, rather than complaining about the same old problem. The answer to a problem seldom ever exists at the level of the problem. Often the idea of something different being possible with a little willingness on the part of a patient is all it takes to generate the catylst of a change towards better health and therefore a better life!

Vitamin D

Evaluate your need for vitamin D supplementation in your diet. This idea is even getting popularized on such shows as "The Doctors," and hitting public awareness. Do your research, however not only is it good for holding off the FLU but also showing effectiveness in mitigating the progression of cancer!

Swine FLU concerns

SWINE FLU concerns ?
Rather than taking fast-tracked and speculative vaccines this year for the flu, and especially for the SWINE flu, I would like to encourage my patients and everyone to consider first a household item that we are all familiar with..............Vitamin D. Research is showing that decreased amounts of vitamin D in our bodies may be responsible for our increased susceptibility to the flu virus. Research is also showing that those who supplement with Vitamin D (cholecalciferol -- Vit D3) are much less likely to get ill during the flu season. Some sources, such as Dr Mercola essentially state that if enough is supplemented, then a person will effectively lower their chances of becoming ill with the flu to near zero.
The speculation here is that vitamin D is needed for the body to appropriately fight viral infections (and general immune system function), and that although the body produces Vitamin with appropriate sunlight exposure, during the darker months we don't get as much exposure to sun and therefore less vitamin D production.This follows with apparent immune-suppression, allowing us to become more susceptible. Note that this is also known to be an issue in cultures, such as some middle eastern countries, where it is standard social practice that women completely cover their bodies. This often leads to similar problems for them when it isn't even FLU season. Please remember that a suppressed immune system is the one that isn't doing it's job at 100% and turns up with an infection that is often due to some "normal" bacteria or virus that we are encountering on the daily basis anyway!
Other considerations for the FLU:

Methylene Blue: know for years to kill viruses in the body. Full glass of H2O, (1) Tablespoon of H2O2 (peroxide), and few drops of Methylene Blue and Drink. Your Urine and tongue will be blue for a while, but choose blue urine or the FLU....it's up to you.
Homeopathics: Go to any natural foods store and ask! They will guide you as here are many.
-cold an flu spray
-Actinum Napellus
-Oscillococcinum
.............................to name just a few!
Vitamin C: about 5000mg powdered per day to help with infections.
Iodine: Kills all single-celled organisms and viruses. Take about 12-13mg per day. Sources are Kelp, i-Thyroid (R) , Iodoral (R), to name a few.
Colloidal Silver: nano particles of silver are known to kill microorganisms effectively.....even MRSA(Staph) and pseudomonas. Take about a teaspoon full a day when you feel like you could use an antibiotic......don't necessarily need daily.
Essential Oils: Common ones such as, cinnamon, clove oil, coconut oil, mikes with raw local honey as a mixture can make a very healing "herbal tea."
**Note that even Tamiflu(R) itself is primarily comprised of an asian herb called "star anise."

We hope that this information helps those interested to find natural and healthy ways of taking control of their health even in the wake of the social fear that seems to currently be taking it's toll into rushed and experimental answers that may be more dangerous than helpful.
