Healthy Life – Live Healthy Life

The expectation that cure can come from isolated chemicals has little chance of cure, but a strong chance of suppression. The myth of modern chemical medicine is described in the following:

“The United States is recognized to be the most over-medicated, most over-operated on and most over inoculated country in the world. We impose our life saving drugs and technologies, intended for serious ailments, on minor, even trivial illness; illnesses that are self limiting and that, except for symptomatic relief, do better without interference from the physician. Americans’ think that health can be bought, rather than a state to be sought though an accommodation to the norms of nature.”

The current crop of food and drug companies are busy inventing products to sell to healthy people, with the claim that chemically altered nature can make you healthier, smarter and more successful. They back these claims with studies sponsored by the companies themselves.

When you see a licensed medical doctor their skill to help relies on a box of tools. That box of tools includes an expensive education that can cost up to a million dollars for a medical specialty. A neurosurgeon is an example. The education teaches them how to diagnose disease and then prescribe and apply drugs and/or surgeries in an attempt to correct the imbalance of patient conditions. Modern medical science has a catch. It will always cost you, your government and other people a bundle of money. Almost every innovation in modern drug pharmacy and surgeries eventually cause more new problems.

Few Americans can bear the brunt of paying for this out of control system. When someone tells me of a hip replacement or some similar operation I am always amazed when I ask what it costs. I ask who pays. It is never the recipient. They may share a small part, but always other people pay. Government or insurance, etc. pay the lion’s share of the bill. With modern medicals high cost, few individuals can afford to take full responsibility for their health.

One can easily see the reason for the high cost of modern medicine. Most medical doctors begin their career with immense debt. The investment to be a doctor along with high cost of offices and hospitals place them in the position of needing lots of sick people. In order to survive and prosper the doctors must deepen their search for new disease, even in the healthy. Coming from that search is the invention of new disease and procedures to ensure the flow of money into the system. Does it all make sense? I don’t think so.

The word remedy in the phrase hemorrhoids remedy brings with it a positive connotation that links with the idea of a natural cure. Typically, this means using an alternative treatment that does not include your doctor or pharmacist. More and more people are recognizing the potentially harmful, long term effects of antibiotics. Therefore, more and more people are opting to use a natural hemorrhoids remedy.

There are still many people who believe that using a hemorrhoids remedy that is not doctor prescribed can be very dangerous. This is a common opinion. Too many of us take comfort in the idea that doctors know all; too many of us believe that doctors are always watching out for our best interests. Unfortunately, that is not always the case.

Doctors do not know all. The countless law suits against doctors and hospitals for negligent and harmful care will prove that. Unfortunately, much of the medical world is really only a profit-generating monster these days. Out to sell whatever vaccine or bogus antibiotic formula they can get on the shelves. These supposed solutions often do not compare with a natural hemorrhoids remedy. In fact, they can even do more harm than good. This why, again, many are opting to go with a hemorrhoids remedy that is not a product of some pharmaceutical company gain.

Your hemorrhoids remedy needs to be a solution that was created by individuals that care. Not by money-grubbing pharmaceutical companies. Your hemorrhoids remedy should have nothing but useful and positive effects on the body. If your solution to your problem comes with a list a mile long of side effects and potential dangers, DO NOT take comfort in that solution.

Instead, do your research to find a proven treatment that is all natural and does not have a list of several wrongs that it also creates. Some suggested, natural herbs for a hemorrhoids remedy that you should look for will include the following: stone root, butcher’s broom, white oak bark, witch hazle, cayenne and ginger. These ingredients would be useful in any hemorrhoids remedy.

The reason for these suggestions is simple. These suggested herbs have been proven to have positive effects on your specific problem. Therefore, these herbs would be the perfect combination to fight your ailment and be used as the ultimate natural hemorrhoids remedy.

Do not feel the need to run to your doctor for this type of ailment. What you really need is natural healing so that your body can really find long term relief. Your hemorrhoids remedy should be a safe and effective herbal combination that will completely heal your problem. Do not settle for anything less.

Having a healthy diet is very important for people suffering from diabetes. The main reason for patients to attract this disease is when the pancreas in the body stops producing enough quantity of insulin that is required to perform the day to day functions. This situation in other words is also known as type 2 diabetes or adult onset diabetes.

Some of the important food items which should be included in the diabetes food plan are soya bean. Soya bean has the ability to effectively keep a check on the blood sugar levels of the body. Curd is one important food item which provides friendly bacteria’s to the pancreas to start producing insulin for the body. Poultry products should be must have on any diabetic’s food plan. The products provide the required amount of energy level to the body to perform its day to day functions.

Another important food item is groundnut which has the ability to fight malnutrition in the body and prevent vascular complications which are very common with type 2 diabetes. Bitter gourd is another important food item which controls the blood glucose levels of the body and helps in keeping the disease under manageable levels.

Having extensive knowledge and devising effective list of foods to eat with type 2 diabetes can work wonders in controlling the problem enabling the patient to live a healthy and prosperous lifestyle.

I was 12. Not fat, tubby, plump, portly or any other word you want to use. Nor did I have any immediate family with the condition. I ate well and life was easy. So very very easy. But it was all about to change.

It was Monday 18th November 1996

One minute I was sleeping, the next I was running to the bathroom. I needed water and quickly. I felt like I could drink the tap dry. I looked at the clock. It was 2.13am. I went back to sleep. It must have been something I’d eaten, a one off.

The next night the same thing happened only this time it was worse. If I didn’t make it to the sink I felt my mouth would close up and stop any oxygen from reaching my lungs. It was 2.17am. It couldn’t be blamed on what I’d eaten for a second consecutive night, could it? Something was wrong.

I told my mother the following day and a trip to the doctor followed. This was met with the usual jubilation that a 12 year old has when they’re told they have a day off school. It was all a bit of a game. A morning off school, sympathy and lots and lots of attention. Where was the problem?

“Mrs Paget, after some initial tests, it looks like your son may have diabetes”. Well, to a 12 year old you may as well have said that NASA has just opened up a canteen on Mars. I didn’t have a clue what the doctor was on about.

It wasn’t until my father met us at the hospital and the nice nurse sat me down I realised things weren’t perhaps worth missing school for. Then I was being asked to hold out my finger so the nice nurse could test my blood sugars. This seemed like a fairly straight forward thing to do.

I passed out. The next thing I knew I was on the bed, surrounded by worried faces.

“Its not good news. Your son must go straight away to Worcester hospital for further tests; we’re 99% sure he’s diabetic”.

Things started moving at a million miles an hour, tests, consultants, more tests and more consultants. I would end up being in hospital for 5 days. But the one thing that stays with me from that torrid day was the realisation that something had gone wrong with my body. Now I would need artificially made insulin to keep my blood sugars controlled stopping my organs from drowning in sugar or passing into a coma induced sleep as my body ran out of it.

It’s a weird sensation for a 12 year old. Suddenly taken out of school and told to live the biology lesson my teacher would be giving my class. It all seemed so…unimportant.

Then came the needle and the orange. By this point I knew things were seriously wrong. I understood I was very unwell. I’d lost weight. I’d begun to drink like a fish and suddenly didn’t seem that interested in that commodity every 12 year old can’t get enough of; food.

I remember my father practicing on the orange, then my mother and then me. It was a strange sensation. No one really knowing what to say and everyone in disbelief that this injecting lark would be happening between 2 and 6 times a day for the rest of my life.

The doses of human mixtard 70/30 varied, as did the frequency of trips to the toilet. Family visited and even the local press wanted to talk to me. On day 3 I was allowed to go for a walk to the other end of the hospital and buy a magazine, closely chaperoned by my mother of course.

Day 4 and my father came with good news. He was taking me out for the afternoon to watch Kidderminster Harriers play football. What a treat. I needed it. Even for a positive, happy 12 year old I was becoming depressed in the hospital. Boy was it a breathe of fresh air. Life could go on. I would still enjoy everything I’d enjoyed before. It would just be with a few major changes.

I left the hospital on day 5 and went back to school. What a week!

It’s easy to now look back on this time and review what happened but it’s only now that I reflect back and think of what was going on. My parents, who were strong throughout, must have had a far worse time than me. They got the serious talks from the doctors. They were told their son would now have a lower life expectancy. That diabetes could cause blindness, organ complications, circulatory problems, increased risk of stroke. They heard about the issues I would face later in life in reference to tolerance to alcohol, sex life, obtaining a driving licence and flying on airplanes with needles.

They understood the seriousness from Day 1. They were unable to control what was happening and could only sit and watch as it rapidly changed the life of their only son. Many parents have been, are going through and will go through the same situation and feelings of helplessness.

It is my hope that articles such as this help more people to understand this dangerous condition and raise the awareness of Diabetes and its management.
