Swine Flu (H1N1) Virus vs. Herbal Supplements

CAN HERBS BEAT THE SWINE FLUE?

One fact is for sure the swine flu is definitely nothing to play with and is highly contagious. What I would like to share with people is what happened this past 2 weeks with my family.
My work schedule allows me to work 8 days and off 7 to 8 days depending on the days in the month. I travel constantly usually 2 to 6 hours from my home. I get a call from my wife telling me to come home she is terribly sick and can't take care of the kids, not to mention she is 7 months pregnant. We have 4 kids at home 2 in school and 2 not old enough for school. The oldest is 8 and the youngest is 2. The oldest has been diagnosed with ADHD about 2 years ago. My wife tried all the medicines they prescribed but never liked all the effects that the drugs had on him. So she has had him on herbal supplements and has done better than ever. His school grades prove it. The other kids have been taking herbal vitamins just to keep their immune systems as healthy as possible. I myself take herbal cleansers just to keep fast food toxins out as much as possible. When I am at home my wife cooks all the time an we try to eat good wholesome food. When I leave to go to work I eat where I can and when I can. Hardly ever really healthy food. Just something to kill the hunger pain. But I still try to supplement myself with herbs.
So I go home to help my wife with the kids exposing myself to whatever she has and possibly the kids too. When I got home I took her to her OB doctor to check her out. They tested her for the flu in the office and she tested negative. The doctor didn't want to take a chance so she sent her to the hospital to do another test and also prescribed her Tamaflu to start taking. The hospital immediately said she tested positive for the flu but it would take 2 weeks to see if it was the swine flu or not. The second day I was there, my wife got to where she couldn't breathe so she called her OB doctor. Her doctor told her to go immediately to the ER and she would meet her there. Her doctor told her that one of her other patients waited too long with the same symptoms and ended up having a premature "C" section delivery because the mother's lungs collapsed and ended up on life support system along with the baby being in critical premature condition. When my wife got to the hospital they immediately put her in intensive care under confinement. The ended up giving her antibiotics, breathing treatments, oxygen and other medicines. Finally 4 days later her blood count looked good and was sent home to rest. Her doctor said that the swine flu has been attacking pregnant women and people who have health problems. Since she is pregnant, the only thing she has been taking is her prenatal vitamins. Pregnant women's immune systems are naturally very low due to their condition. So about 12 days later her doctor said the tests came back positive for the swine flu.
After the first day she was in the hospital, I took 3 kids to their pediatrician to get them checked out. They each had a cough and at that time we didn't know about mother having the swine flu yet. The doctor said we just had to treat the symptoms. After all was said and done 1 kid ended up with a sinus infection, 2 with only a cough, and 1 with nothing. My question is why all this exposure to the swine flu and nobody else was seriously sick with the swine flu including me. Well let's think about it for a second. The oldest takes a handful of herbs for ADHD every morning before he goes to school. The others take regular vitamins every night before bed and I take herbal cleansers so I can give my body a chance from eating fast food when I am gone. My wife can only take certain things because of pregnancy. The conclusion I come up with is that we are helping our immune systems. I've learned that just cleansing alone helps your immune system dramatically. So I guess you could say that as a family we are living proof what herbs can really do work for you. Remember only you know your body and what you are feeling. The human body is really amazing. You just need the honest knowledge of what to fuel it to make it perform. In today's society we spend a lot of money on our personal vehicles mainly just preventative maintenance. Changing the oil, washing, checking all the fluids. Basically everything to make it tick. The human body is the same way. Maintain it right and it will tick for a long time.

Herbal vs. Pharmaceuticals

Why are we sick?
"Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity."    -World Health Organization-
Did you know that the law states that only a drug can cure a disease. Nothing else. The reason is that you cannot patent an herb or natural form of healing.  A doctor (MD) can lose his license to practice and do jail time if he tells a patient that a certain herb can "cure" their condition.
We spend more money on health care than ever before. We are prescribed more drugs than ever before. Why? Are we sicker? Let's think about that. Remember always look for the "root cause". When I think back to when I was a child, I remember you didn't always get a prescription every single time I went to the doctor. When I went to the doctor it was usually something serious. Some people state that they had to literally beg for some kind of medicine. Now, you can't leave the doctor's office without a script for something. You can't even watch an hour of television without seeing some sort of drug commercial.
The answer is MONEY. Money is Power. It definitely makes the world go round. Money is such a powerful force people will risk going to jail for it. Seventy-five percent of all murders are committed for money. All publicly traded corporations have a legal responsibility to increase profits, it's the law! The more you sell the more you make. The more sick we are the more drugs we buy.
This answers a question I had once. My wife used to work for a ear, nose, and throat doctor for thirteen years. My biggest childhood ailment was my ears and hearing problems. He was my main doctor, a specialist. I didn't have a family MD. I would stop by and visit my wife and most of the time there was always some sort of sales rep waiting to visit. I thought to myself "as high as medicine is who can afford to give samples for free." That is what I always got from the doctor was the samples. Come to find out that doctors get "kickbacks" for the amounts of drugs they prescribe. Think about it, a financial incentive. What would you do if you were a doctor in control of your own destiny?
Today more people get colds and flus than ever before, even cancer, diabetes, heart disease, multiple sclerosis, lupus, muscular dystrophy, asthma, migraine headaches, joint, neck, and back pain than ever before. What about acid reflux, ulcers, and stomach problems? Acid reflux isn't a disease. It's a fermented food problem from all the processed "fast" food we eat. It is easily cured naturally, but according to the FDA and pharmaceutical companies if you take an ongoing drug you don't have that problem any more. Heck, just eat good organic, wholesome food. Let your body create its natural enzymes needed to digest food. Here is a thought. This actually happened to me. My wife stopped by a "fast food restaurant" to get the kids something for lunch. A week later we were cleaning the car out and found that one of the kids left their un-eaten lunch still in the bag under the car seat. No smell, no nothing. Opened it up and it looked as good as the day she ordered it! Our stomachs have to process that. If mother nature can't decompose it how can we? Remember "root cause"? Bottom line is "we are what we eat!!" There isn't enough nutrition in the food today for our bodies to build up our immune systems to fight off these simple illnesses.
This is just the food industry. What about the pharmaceutical industry. How many ads have you seen on TV where attorneys are asking if you have taken certain brands of drugs and have suffered deadly side effects from them?  I see them all the time. These companies have figured out that they can make billions of dollars before the drug gets recalled and the law suits start. They already have that money set aside just for that.So why does the FDA approve these drugs? Because the companies who get their drug approved have stock holders who are politicians and members of the FDA. Imagine that!
In the battle between Herbal vs. Pharmaceuticals there are trillions of dollars spent in scientific research that has failed in producing ways to prevent and cure illness and disease.  So why aren't we hearing about the all-natural inexpensive prevention methods and cures that do exist? The answer .....simply money! The bottom line is this: The health care industry has no incentive for curing disease. If they did, they would simply be out of business. Their objective is to ensure people get sick and need ongoing medical treatment. The number one motivator in the world is making money. We read about it every day.

Living Proof of Natural Remedies

Hello everyone,
I would like to take this opportunity to tell everyone that I am living proof that natural herbs really do work and can be used on hundreds, if not thousands of different ailments. After researching a condition that I had previously and using doctor prescribed methods of treatment I realized that you have to treat the cause and not the symptom. Once you find the root cause and treat it, a natural remedy will work almost every time, depending on the progress and severity of the condition. For example, you have a headache and you take a pain reliever, you're treating the pain of the headache not the cause of the headache. The "root cause" could be something like stress or something you ate or didn't eat. Remember, you don't have an aspirin deficiency.
Using the power of the world wide web, I will be reporting real facts of personal experiences of myself, family, and friends. After all seeing is believing, right. I have a passion for believing that there are natural cures for today's diseases and ailments. We just have to know where to look and share information and just maybe we could help save a life. The human body is amazing. It's the only thing that can heal itself. You just need the knowledge of what to fuel it.
Never before has there been an easier way to obtain information and products since the rise of the Internet. I plan on sharing my experiences and life stories with you. Maybe some of you have had the same experiences and would like to be healthy again. I will also reveal to you products and resources I have used. There will be names of books that will give you so much information that I can almost guarantee you will be blown away of the facts and corruption in today's society.There are so many controversies in the health and medicine industry today I don't need to tell you anything. Just look around you it's right there in front of your face. I didn't even believe it until someone opened my eyes to it. Ever since I turned myself into a lab rat, I have slowly but positively changed my daily life style. I feel great again.
As I said before, I plan on sharing my stories in future posts. I will give you a bio of myself and how I've learned how to treat conditions such as Herpes, Common Cold, Cancers, high blood pressure, diabetes, and many others. I am not a doctor but I have helped myself where a doctor couldn't.
This is just the beginning of natural facts that I'm glad to write about. There is definitely more excitement coming!
