What you don’t know about lupus—and how to fight it
I’m generally not a big fan of “awareness” days, months or events.
Many are centered on things that people are already VERY well aware of, they regurgitate the same old information, and don’t really serve any significant purpose other than funding drug research. But I’ll make an exception in this case because May is Lupus awareness month, and that’s definitely something people need to increase their awareness of. Many people have heard of it, but don’t know exactly what it is.

10 Reasons you should be taking fish oil
For some reason, Omega-3 essential fatty acids are seen as something that only older people need. Nothing could be farther from the truth! Although inflammatory conditions like arthritis are more common in the elderly, people of ALL ages are susceptible to the harmful effects of inflammation, and need the protective action of Nature’s perfect anti-inflammatory—Omega-3 fatty acids.
Diabetic? Overweight? Depressed? This may be why
If you were to go to a doctor and report that you had symptoms of Type 2 diabetes, were overweight and/or felt depressed, here is what would very likely happen:
You’d get a blood test to check your glucose level, and if it was elevated, maybe some metformin. You would also probably be told to keep your diet under 2,000 calories a day or see a dietician to help you lose weight.
And last but not least, you’d likely get a prescription for the sacred cow of all drugs—antidepressants! Well, you know what? All of these health issues (and more) can be caused by a very significant deficiency, and all the diabetes drugs, calorie counting and antidepressants in the world can’t change that.

Most diseases (and deaths) start here
When someone is diagnosed with a serious disease (or suddenly drops dead!), the typical reaction is shock. Oh no! How could that be? He or she seemed so healthy!
Well, although people may be surprised by illness, it’s no surprise to your body.

My recent experience with the flu
My son Mick recently came down with the flu.
And if you listen to the fear mongering that’s going on, you’d think it’s amazing that he actually lived to tell about it.
As a matter of fact, he was perfectly fine after a few days of rest, fluids, vitamins C, E and D, and probiotics.
I’m sharing this experience with you so I can hopefully open your eyes to the manipulation that is taking place with respect to the flu (and other illnesses), all in the interest of pushing pharmaceutical products.
