If it is true that no drug can replace nutrients, then why are we so quick to swallow a pill when we have a cold or flu? Why don't we use natural methods to curb allergies? Why don't we use nutrition to ward off disease and yes, even find a cure?
As I have written in a series of articles on the World's Biggest Con Job, we are sold a lie by Big Pharma that drugs can heal and/or restore. Between the lack of education we are offered and our own fears, we buy that lie......hook, line and sinker.
In the mid-1970s I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and given less than two years to live. I knew next to nothing about nutrition, but I knew that if I had a hysterectomy or if I died without having the surgery the specialist said I must have......then WHAT CHANCE DID I HAVE -- of living? Or having a baby?
Green, naive and terrified -- I sought answers and found them. They are available - which is one of the main reasons for this series - to help you find them too.
Do you check your labels to see how much of your diet is imported from China?
According to Dr. Richard Brouse, a biochemist, certified clinical nutritionist, and lecturer on health preservation and disease prevention, 77% of our imported food comes from Asia and Africa. Are you willing to bet their level of quality control is above US standards?
In researching one of the top brands of vitamins that have become a 'household' word, I made even more shocking discoveries. For obvious reasons, I won't share their name here but if you PM me I will direct you to the source.

Let's have a look at our own US food production
- Highly processed
- Artificial colors added to enhance their appeal
- High in sugar and salt
- GMO regulations allow for excessive herbicides and pesticides
- Soil is highly fertilized with chemicals to force production
- The soil lacks microbes for sustainability - it needs WORMS but most worms can't survive in the depleted chemical-based environment
Other contributing factors to poor health
1. Our kids. They are given antibiotics, vaccines and medications to ward off disease. Got a fever? Take a pill. Got a cold? Take medicine. Got dirty hands? Use hand sanitizer. Read this article on how hand sanitizer could actually be killing people.
Let your kids experience the world and play in the dirt -- the best protection to warding off germs. By over sanitizing we lose our own ability to defend and strengthen our immune systems.
2. Toxic exposure from the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breathe. Drink filtered water.
3. To the best of my ability, my home has been as free as possible from chemicals for the past four decades. We have the health to prove it! You can replace all those chemicals that are destroying us within our own homes with natural ones. For example, are you aware that fabric softeners can cause seizures in kids?
I am so thankful to have raised my kids without chemicals and toxins. I never would have known how to be healthy or to have a healthy home if I had not had cancer as a young woman. I cured it WITHOUT chemo, WITHOUT surgery, and WITHOUT radiation. I also learned how to live in a toxin-free environment.
4. Stress -- 'nuf said. We are all aware of the havoc of stress on our health.
5. All drugs, including coffee, nicotine, and alcohol cause some form of malabsorption of nutrients. If you don't abstain, at least be aware that you need extra nutrients to ward off the negative effects.
6. Negative thinking. Do you spend more time thinking about what could go wrong or what did go wrong than to recognize what you can change?
7. Sugar intake. Again...'nuf said. Have you considered substituting Stevia for sugar?Here's a great article explaining why you should.
What's the solution?
If you have been following this series, you know that the majority of my articles deal with food supplements and how to find a safe supplement that is ALIVE and preferably Kosher approved. This is your assurance you are getting supplements that will actually help you instead of harm you. These articles are listed below.
In researching one of the top brands of vitamins that have become a 'household' word, I made even more shocking discoveries. For obvious reasons, I won't share their name here but if you PM me I will direct you to the source.
This company uses the CHEAPEST ingredients available, is totally synthetic and in 2015 made a NET profit of $48 B I L L I O N - at the expense of our health. It grieves me when I read some of my fellow bloggers write posts advertising for them on their blogs. It is pure unadulterated poison.
This company is also one of the top sellers of pre-natal vitamins. I am one of many nutritionists who strongly believe that the increase in childhood disease, especially cancer (and sickeningly brain cancer) has been caused by these pre-natal and children's vitamins. If people would take the time to research the ingredients on the label, they would realize that the chemicals used will cause serious side effects.

Wonderful information, as usual. Everything we put in our bodies is so important; that can't be overemphasized. I've been paying for decades for what I put in my body. It wasn't toxic, per se, but my body couldn't digest it.
ReplyDeleteYou have taught me a lot Traci. Thank you
DeleteThank you Traci. You have taught me a lot. We have learned together
DeleteGood advice for sure. I think the positive thinking can make a huge difference, especially in difficult times like today.
ReplyDeleteRemember your post about Gratitude? I told you I was going to turn my list into a blog post. Here goes:

Thank you for sharing that Tamara. And I love your attitude
DeleteEnjoyed it Tamara - thank you
DeleteCarol, that was a great blog, sorry I haven't written before now. It's true we have been brain-washed that meds are the way to go and anything not approved by big Pharma, is not good for us. But apparently we don't see all the warning signs on things. In the ads that I see on TV the cure is worse than th cure. Great post!
ReplyDeleteThank you Susan. If I hadn't found my own cure for cancer in the 80s I'd be dead long ago.
