Cancer Causes, Dumb Diets, Rude Doctors, and...

B'SD

8 Shvat, 5779

There's plenty of good news in the medical world, and some of it is because increasing numbers of doctors admit that their recommended diets don't work. 

Studies are being reconsidered, redesigned, and reclassified so that medical professionals can help people to lose weight easily and sensibly. Increasing attention is being paid to those of us who do not struggle with weight control, and why.

Those updated healthcare professionals can help people to prevent becoming overweight in the first place.

For those of us in the natural healing world, weight control is a matter of understanding specific principles. Here's a starter kit for thinking as we do:

Food is a significant part of the problem - the WRONG food, that is. It can affect fertility, weight, energy levels, health, mood, and more.

I know one naturopath invited to many baby namings because she advises infertility clients to stop ingesting dairy foods. They're full of Mama Animal's hormones, designed to fatten up her children. They create havoc with human hormones. Add in the synthetic hormones from hygiene products that I've warned you about at this blog, and infertility plus obesity easily become "OMIGAWD why am I fat and/or infertile?" issues.

Keep thinking with me.

People complain that they can't keep their weight down as they swallow more lo-cal ice cream, lo-fat cottage and reduced-calories sliced cheese, etc. THEY EAT THEIR OWN PROBLEM, GUARANTEEING THAT IT WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THEY STOP SWALLOWING DAIRY "FOODS" DESIGNED FOR ANIMALS, NOT FOR HUMANS.

Weight control is not simply a matter 

of calorie restrictions. 

If you eat dairy foods you eat 

hormonal instructions 

to make your body fat.

It's also important to support thyroid health when your energy levels fall and your weight rises. Add iodine-rich seaweed to your menus.

Sushi is made with nori leaves. Enjoy your weight-management meal.

Kombu is a seaweed sold in flakes and as leaves. Add them to your lentil dishes.

Arame, wakame and other sea leaves make lovely additions to a meal. I decorate steaming hot sweet potato with strands of arame, The pretty orange-green color combination is eye candy. The flavor of the dish is mouth candy that's nutritious for inner and outer health.

There's far more to the natural weight-control life. I only offered a glimpse into it with the thoughts above.

Okay, on to the next topic for today: WHEN DOCTORS BLAME THEIR PATIENTS FOR PROBLEMS THAT THEY DIDN'T CAUSE!

The problem is close to my heart: a good friend was diagnosed with Smoker's Lung. She's never touched a cigarette in her life and neither has her husband. Air and other pollution gave her the disease.

Does Your Baby's Diaper Pose Health Dangers? Do Your Hygiene Products?

B'SD

2 Shvat, 5776

It's the Jewish month of Shvat, as I wrote earlier, and time to focus on wholesome nature.

I've blogged before about the dangers posed to the public by manufacturers who add health-harming chemicals into hygiene, cosmetic and household products, here, here, here, and elsewhere.

Think your feminine hygiene products are safe, ladies? Think again.

A scientist and friend just sent me a link to update you about the threats to your whole family's health. You need to read

Glyphosate, pathways to 
modern diseases IV, 
cancer and related pathologies.

By the way, if your child wears disposable diapers with a gel to absorb moisture so that you can do fewer diaper changes, ask yourself "Is the convenience worth a risk of causing cancer or other health problems in my little one?" Even non-gel dipes are problematic.

Health food shops carry non-threatening hygiene products. 

Gripe all you want about the price, but consider the cost-effectiveness about dealing with cancers that could have been avoided for a bit more money at the cash register.

Go ahead, look all over the Internet for glyphosate-free and other toxin-free hygiene products. They're on the market.

When Your Pregnancy Does not Complete... or Even Begin...

B'SD

19 Tevet 5771


There's little in life to equal the pain of losing a pregnancy. Bereaved women are more pained when the people around them fail to understand the depth of that loss. It is a loss of hope, of happiness, of joy, even of femininity for some women.

A friend of mine, grief counselor Miriam Maslin, tells the world these wise words:

Grief is not an illness;
it is the healthy response to loss.
Under normal circumstances,
religious tradition provides us
with a structure
within which to do
our healing work.

Not so with miscarriages, stillbirths,
the agony of infertility, and
difficult birth outcomes.

Here there are no therapeutic mourning periods.

Sometimes our friends and family are
at a loss themselves and they can't
be there for us.

There is often a huge chasm between
husband and wife because men and women
tend to mourn differently.

Losing a baby can be a very lonely journey.
Sometimes, we need a safe place
to process our loss.

Sometimes we need someone with whom
we can just be.

National Infertility Awareness Week

B'SD

13 Iyar 5770



I could have realized something was up when I received E-mails and phone calls the past few days, asking me what I recommend for infertility problems, menopause and other hormonal issues. WOW Americans are tuned in to commercial messages!

Er, that's part of the problem. Commercials tout the wonders of hair care products, milk, and coffee, among other heavily advertised goods.

Each of those items hold synthetic hormones wreaking havoc with your health. You can learn more about that by scrolling around this blog.

Anyway, I was tipped off to the existence of National Infertility Awareness Week when I glanced at my Facebook page this morning. Sheesh. If the link doesn't work, you can see the item after joining Facebook.

Want to fill that empty crib?
Cuddle a little loved one
cooing in your arms?

Go organic (no nasty nightmares about unsuspected health hazards) and restore healthy function to your reproductive equipment. You can learn more about that when you read EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge.

XENO-what????????????

5 Shvat 5770


YUK! While editing a multi-media presentation's content for one of my Writing Services clients, I learned that many cosmetics and hair care items (shampoos, crème rinses) for men and women contain something called Xenoestrogens. They're synthetic versions of the human body's hormones. They might make you look glamorous But WOW do they mess up health!

Diagnos- Techs Lab in Washington State ran relevant tests and discovered the problem.

Check out this Warning I learned as I edited those materials:

Some manufacturers use lower than minimally permitted amounts of synthetic hormones, hoping to slip in under the detection radar of regulatory agencies. Or, they use the chemicals on some runs but not others, conning customers into preferring specific brands while the cunning manufacturer appears to obey health regulations. Not only will that leave you wondering why your hair, skin and energy qualities aren't consistent over time, it will also make you wonder why your sexual functions are off-kilter.

Which sexual functions? Perfomance and fertility for starters. Monthly cycles in women, too.


I know it sounds trite and boring, but folks, please use simple hygiene products that only get you clean. Your hormonal system does not tolerate tampering.

Make a list of what you need on your bathroom shelves and counters, and in your cosmetics bag. Buy it all at a natural health care shop.

Cry if you need to. And learn to dry your tears. THAT can help you to

Toxic Plastics in Canned Food and (omigawd you'll never guess where!)

B'SD

4 Shvat 5770

I realize that some of the "organic lifestyle" suggestions in the book and on this blog leave you a bit distressed and skeptical. With the evidence adding up about synthetics poisoning the populace, however, I want to underscore the "synthetics are dangerous to health" advice.


BPA is a chemical found in many plastic food containers. It's leaching into human bodies and wreaking havoc with health. Look at some of the photos on this blogpost for a quick grasp of how often BPA gets inside you or your loved ones. Yes, baby formula too often contains BPA!

The Environmental Working Group shares my concerns. Read their update entitled

Bisphenol A:

Toxic Plastics Chemical in Canned Food:

Consumer Tips to Avoid BPA Exposure

Though the article advises using stainless steel thermoses without plastic linings, you might face health issues from the metal leaching into your water (I won't even use stainless steel cookware for that reason! Aluminum cookware is a known cause of Alzheimer's, so I prefer ceramic, porcelain, glass, and cast iron cookware). A metallic flavor in your water could be unpleasant, too. Please use ceramic, glass, wood and cast iron utensils that do not endanger human health.

What to do for a water bottle? This blog often lets you know that scrubbed-clean empty grape juice and wine bottles make excellent water containers when tucked into cushiony water carriers that hang off your shoulders with straps.

Hmm, how much benefit can there be to ridding your kitchen and household of plastics? Well, for one thing, there's evidence that synthetics are causing the odd rise in infertility problems among people who grew up using them. Parenthood is being achieved after changing old habits for healthier ones (and after benefiting from BHRT Bioidentical Hormone Therapy to restore normal hormone levels).

And yes, non-toxic baby bottles and safe pacifiers are still manufactured ;^ )

Lose the Milk Mustache to Improve Your Health!

23 Kislev 5770


Know anyone wondering why they can't conceive? Why they have breast cancer? Why their bones break so much? Why they have so much gas and digestive disturbance? The answers might be in this video.



I've reviewed books other than the one mentioned above. Written by medical researchers, they point to the same problem: animal milk is good for animals. Tampered milk, filled with synthetic hormones and other man-made chemicals, isn't good for anything.

A woman who eats lots of calcium-filled leafy greens and exercises regularly, I have proof from orthopedic specialists that my bones will NEVER be at risk for osteoporosis. And I had not set out to prove anything. I only ended my milk intake due to its poor affect on my respiratory system.

How can a Glass of Pure Water Protect YOUR Health and Fertility?

B'SD


21 Tishrei 5770


Let's continue a line of thought from yesterday's blogpost and my Self-Help Coaching skills. Cancer and infertility are messing up many lives around the globe. Stricken people are dumbfounded that they could suffer such problems. "After all," they reason, "I took care of myself. Ate well, drank lots of water, just like those natural health counselors advise. Local and national governments have standards for preventing disease in the food and water sytems. I know that what I ate and drank was clean, bug- and germ-free. I even switched from BPA-filled plastic water bottles to aluminum stuff. How could this happen to me???"

The answer is as startling as can be: The government-supervised foods and water you ingested might have been loaded with health-endangering chemicals. Yes, they prevented mold, bug infestations and sewage from seeping into your food and water supply. But how that was arranged seems to be the problem causing rising cancer and infertility rates.

How do I know?

Read this educational news item: Dangerous BPA Leaks from Alumium Bottles.

Then read: EPA Re-evaluating Hormone-disrupting Pesticide Atrazine in Water Supplies.

URGENT UPDATE: Scientists at Tufts Studying BPA as a Possible Cause of Breast Cancer

Somebody poisoned the well.

And the water bottle.

Replace your chemically-laden plastic kitchenware over time as a protective measure. Use health-promoting wood, cast iron, glass, ceramic and porcelain items instead. Glass bottles or genuine glass drinking cups won't fill you with BPA and who-knows-what that might be disclosed in the future. Ceramic mugs are good, too - if they're lead-free. Fill your kitchen cupboards with cutlery and cookware made of natural elements.

And get a water filter!

Need water when you're on the go? Clean out empty glass wine and grape juice bottles and use them in a shoulder-strap water carrier as I do.

Want to improve more of your dietary habits, to increase the chances of better health and/or fertility? Consider reducing the fried and barbecued foods on your menu. They're known to cause problems, too (that's OLD News! ).

There's still a world of scrumptious, body-building menus to enjoy. They can protect and improve your health.




Read this book to know how changing my diet gave doctors pause when they realized I went from suddenly blind to sighted (in full color!) within months of changing my dining habits. My bones, muscles and overall health now rival that of a woman HALF my age. Medical experts are studying my medical miracles and reading the book, too!

The text can soothe you as you learn how to cope with your diagnoses in clear-headed fashion. Jokes and funny remarks from famous people appear throughout the text. They'll make you laugh and smile when you least expect it. The Global Resources section in the back lets you know about how to get help to conceive despite complicated fertility problems, how to get discounts on expensive medication and medical appliances, and much more - no matter the diagnosis you have.

There's a reason that world-famous psychiatrist
Dr. Judith Guedalia calls EMPOWER Yourself
"Lifesaving, emotionally rewarding, funny & helpful."

Here's a bonus: the manuscript also tells you about foods that fight pain! You can feel MUCH better after reading this book ;^ )

Ooh! One more thing: I keep wondering when and why to update you about a nifty thing to do for women's menstrual and fertility issues and irregularities. Make Shepherd's Purse tea! A local folk remedy (called khubezia in Hebrew), it has a good reputation for regulating menses and improving female fertility. I don't know why it does all that, but I suggest you give it a try. I happen to snack on this yummy high-protein food that grows as a wild weed all over the country of Israel. The nuggets of nutrition grow in pods sprinkled all over the ankle-to-chest-high plant.
