Allergies, Part 2
Thank the Lord, Spring has finally arrived here in Ottawa, Ontario. And unfortunately for some poor individuals, that means allergies.
But there is hope. Photo Credit

Spring is here and with the temperatures about to take off, Spring Allergies are about to poke their heads up. And let’s be real, allergies are no fun and take the enjoyment out of what should be a great time of year.
So what to do? If you don’t want to start popping Claritin or some such anti-histamine, you might consider Allergy Elimination Technique.

“Frankly, I’m a little skeptical” are words that I hear on a fairly regular basis. Most often it is a person who has suffered from some chronic problem for years and years. And they keep getting worse, despite everything that medicine has thrown at it.

This picture is of a live hookworm. And yes, it is a human parasite!
With so many people escaping the cold in Ottawa, Ontario and Canada for that matter, heading to the warm environs of the Caribbean islands or Mexico, they have their own double edged sword to deal with. And that is the fact that the hotter the country, the more bugs there are. And the more parasties there are.

“Anthony has a hard time paying attention, daydreaming, not listening, being easily distracted, forgetfulness, inability to stay still, talking too much …..”
Those words were found on almost every report card I brought home as a child. And yes, I was guilty of all of the above and more. I can remember sitting in school looking out the window and dreaming about being Robin Hood.

First it was the reports that our daughters are Starting Puberty Earlier.
“More than 10 percent of white 7-year-old girls in the study, which was conducted in the mid-2000s, had reached a stage of breast development marking the start of puberty, compared to just 5 percent in a similar study conducted in the early 1990s.
Black and Hispanic girls continue to mature faster than white girls, on average. Nearly one-quarter of black girls and 15 percent of Hispanic girls had entered puberty by age 7″.
If that doesn’t scare you the follow up data should. “African-American boys start … at about 9 years old, while non-Hispanic white and Hispanic boys begin … Read More . . . . . . . . Photo Credit

If you are searching for answers to your health issues and so far haven’t found anything, maybe it is time to think outside the box.
One fellow said to me the other day, “frankly, I’m a little skeptical about the work you do at Awakening Potentials.”
My answer to him, was that after 13 different doctors, 4 operations that have left him in constant pain and made him worse with each new procedure they have thrown at him, that I would be skeptical about traditional medicine. Read More

Perseverance is that magic something that makes us keep going even thought every thought and every fiber of your body is telling you to stop.
And that special something is what can separate success from failure.

Time is literally running out. Anyone who is serious about losing a few pounds before swimsuit season is here should act right now.
I know of so many people who will go to the beach in their clothes, but will not put so much as a foot in the water. Why you ask? Because they don’t want to be seen in their bathing suit. And that’s too bad, that they deprive themselves such enjoyment. But it is also understandable.
Weight is a HUGE issue in our society. But weight gain is just the tip of a big iceberg and it is called our toxic load. Read More

Treated another patient with a hiatus hernia today and so I thought I would share a little about this problem. Acid Reflux, also known as a hiatus hernia is actually a problem that can be fixed. It is almost always a result of your ribs being torqued, or twisted. This in turn causes your diaphragm, that large flat muscle we all have between our lungs and our intestines to become spasmodic.
You see, your mouth and throat turn into your esophagus, a tube that takes the food down to the stomach.

Some people think that a multivitamin is a multivitamin. That all are relatively the same. I used to think so and in that scenario, cheaper is better. Of course all that changed when I learned how to muscle test and discovered that some vitamins are better absorbed than others.
And all the while, scientists ignored what are called PHYTONUTRIENTS. These are chemicals that are in foods that cause a blue berry to be blue and that cause that garlic smell in a clove of garlic. But we, the scientific world didn’t know what they did. And so we threw them out and ignored them.
Until recently that is. Read More

“All the lonely people. Where do they all come from?” Leave it to the Beatles to hit the nail on the head about loneliness.
Turns out that upwards of 15% of society is lonely, and this lonely is deep and it can cause health issues. One study found that lonely people develop high blood pressure compared to non-lonely people. And it can ruin your sleep, make you sick and bring about an early death.

Just had this conversation with a few people and it seems that the “politically correct” answer is to say that you want to live to 100 or even more. Hollywood certainly seems obsessed with youth, just take a look at Madonna and just think of how hard she must work, not to mention what she is taking and doing to her body to stay young. And then there is Chere. Enough said.
Of course, those who say they want to live to Read More

I heard this again this week. “How are you doing today?” I asked.
“My back is ok”, she replied.
“Whats wrong?” I asked.
“I was just told I have cancer” she said.
I have something like this happen often enough that it is now common place. To say there is an epidemic of cancer is an understatement. And this post is not a “Blame the victim” post.

What do you do to give yourself a boost, no matter how down you may be feeling?
Getting out of the house, into the sunshine sure works for me. Today, with the winter sun shinning brightly over Ottawa, it just feels so good to get outside and enjoy it.
I discovered a long time ago that either you hate winter and then hunker down and wait 4 months for it to end or you do something about it. Read More
