holistic doctors – Alternative Medicine – The Best Healing Methods by Sonny Julius
It’s disturbing to me that most people believe prescription drugs are the best healing cure. They will spend years subscribing to this method and still won’t resolve their ailments.
The reason they won’t solve their illness or disease is because prescription drugs are not the right answer. In fact, in most cases, you can create additional problems by using prescription drugs.
Don’t believe it? Then why is it, many times, that when you return to your doctor for another visit, you may get an additional prescription drug to resolve an additional problem?
Your body has a built-in healing system. It will do its job perfectly if you will only do your part by not abusing it. That means feeding it the proper food, exercising regularly, managing stress, adding additional nutrients to your daily regimen and eventually weaning off of any prescription drugs you may be taking.
I share this information with everyone in my articles, I write and submit to directories, on my web site and also on my blog. I also share this information with friends I know who have some major ailments.
What is very disturbing to me is some of these friends are so brainwashed by their doctors that they discourage them from believing the alternative method is not the best.
One friend I talked to about alternative methods has had a severe heart problem for 25 years. He has had by-pass surgery and several other minor surgeries over the years.
He isn’t convinced anything else can resolve his health problem except his doctor and multiple prescription drugs. Yet he has had several life threatening episodes since then.
Another friend I talked to with even more problems feels the same way about his doctor and his medications. Even though he listened to my presentation about my methods, he discussed it with his doctor who advised him to reject my ideas.
I find it hard to understand why a doctor would object to alternative healing methods for their patients which is, by far, the safer way to heal.
But then I guess I should understand because doctors get very limited education about nutrition in all their years in medical school.
Only naturopathic, osteopathic and holistic doctors understand the value of natural medicine cures and remedies for their patients.
The influence that Big Pharma has on this situation, the medical association beliefs and the U.S. Congress being brainwashed by both of these organizations contributes to the sad condition of the country’s health
The new administration of Obama probably will not solve this issue either. There is only one solution to this major health problem and it is “education”.
There needs to be legislation to set up some kind of an educational program to teach people how to become healthier individuals. If we get that done and we will have a healthier America.
However if this ever gets done it will be a “miracle”. You have to understand that by educating people to become healthier that means less dependence on drugs is needed.
Less dependence on drugs means less business for drug companies and even less business for doctors and hospitals. You see why I say if that ever happens it will be a “miracle”.
So what’s the answer to this major health problem here in America? Health researchers, alternative health newsletters written by concerned doctors and other concerned individuals convincing the general public to take personal charge of their health and practicing alternative methods of cures is the only answer.
This is the only way we will get this job done. And believe it or not it is beginning to happen even though it’s a slow process.
More and more people are learning that their doctors are not properly healing them and that prescription drugs are not their solution to wellness.
It may take years for this movement to finally solve our health problem, but I believe it will eventually happen.
About The Author
Sonny grew up in a family that owned a local florist business that lasted for 63 years. For 29 years he was personally involved in the business.
Eventually becoming dissatisfied at the age of 44 years with it, he left to become a sales representative and spent more than 20 years in sales roles.
After retirement Sonny became heavily involved in developing an Internet business.
Four years ago, his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. On the first visit with his wife to her oncologist, Sonny became involved in a discussion over possible treatments. He wanted to discuss alternative treatments instead of conventional treatments for her disease. The doctor was not receptive to his ideas at all.
His wife did eventually accept the doctor’s decision but Sonny never did endorse it.
Because of this experience he left the doctor’s office that day vowing to spent the rest of this life searching for alternative health methods to treat and cure all types of illnesses and diseases.
He then began sharing that information on his websites and even started writing articles on health matters to raise public awareness on the issues.
His wife’s cancer is now in remission and she does accept many of his healthy recommendations. Hopefully both of them will extend their life expectancy by following daily healthier practices.
Sonny will continue to share this valuable information that he has compiled over the years, plus any other information he finds in the future, with everyone who is interested in his findings. Just recently he released his free ebook ”Become Healthier in Body and Mind” You can download it at his website: www.AHealthyLifeForSure.com
Holistic Health Reasons to Avoid Plastic Bottles
In recent months the safety of plastic bottles has been seriously called into question, mainly due to the presence of Bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical found in plastics. BPA was invented over one hundred years ago and is used to create hard plastic bottles, metal food can lining and canned infant formula. Despite manufacture claims that BPA is harmless, during the last twenty years studies have shown this chemical is a harmful pollutant to the human body and is found in a large percentage of the population.
The National Toxicology Program of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reported in April of 2008 that BPA is toxic and may be associated with early puberty, prostate issues, breast cancer, behavioral problems, adverse hormonal reactions and detrimental developmental effects. Potentially, pregnant women and children are most vulnerable to the risks of BPA. This has inspired retailers like Wal-Mart to remove products containing BPA from store shelves and Congress to begin investigations. In the future it is hopeful that the FDA will enforce more stringent safety standards.
Protect Your Family: Natural Health Tips for Reducing Exposure to BPA
The total elimination of BPA from the environment may not be achieved overnight, but there are ways to limit your exposure. Here are some tips:
Tip 1 – Cans are often lined with plastic, which contains BPA. Beverages generally have less residue than canned soups and pastas.
Tip 2 – Some plastics leach BPA into food and liquids. Plastic baby bottles and food containers have lower levels of leaching than canned food and baby formula.
Tip 3 – Polycarbonate plastic food containers and bottles can be affected by residual amounts of BPA. These containers are often marked with the letters “PC” and recycling label #7 on the bottom. Keep an eye out for these indicators on baby bottles, water bottles, plastic cups and any plastic items used for food storage and avoid them.
Tip 4 – Containers, bottles and cups with the recycling labels 1, 2 and 4 are safer and BPA-free.
Tip 5 – Avoid using plastic containers to heat food in the microwave or old, scratched containers.
In addition to these tips it is also helpful to know that Saran plastic wrap has pledged to stay BPA-free and Nalgene has recently announced it will phase out water bottles that contain BPA. They have promised to manufacture BPA-free, hard, plastic water bottles only.
Healthy Lifestyle Education: A Top Priority for Naturopathic Doctors and Holistic Health Care Professionals
In the natural medicine and holistic health care field education has always been a top priority. In order to support and maintain a healthy lifestyle people need to be educated about the risks they face every day. Toxins, pollutants and harmful chemicals are found in a variety of every day products that affect adults and children. If you are worried about a potential toxin in your home consult a naturopathic physician. You can be tested for many toxins found in the home and knowing how you are affected can help you avoid exposure and even illness. To learn more about BPA, contact the National Institutes of Health or visit the Environmental Working Group’s website:
