Liver Damage?

Now, HERE is a set of facts that could curl your hair or raise your eyebrows:

The American Medical Association's own journal, JAMA, recently published the results of taking acetaminophen: In only two weeks, liver damage was apparent from taking 8 tablets-4 grams-a day.

Cheery, huh? I thought so, too. Isn't liver damage what we all yearn to experience?

It's way easy to get so much pain reliever in our system by ingesting acetominophen as we can get it over the counter in a variety of places. It appears in convenience stores, pharmacies, grocery stores, even the corner dollar shop.

This is the kind of stuff that makes Mother Connie nuts! We can buy a "cheap fix" for our pain over the counter, but it's "too expensive" to be well, in some peoples' opinions. People want to let the medics choose their pain relief. They want someone else to be responsible for their well being. They want to drink soda, not water . They crave fast food and claim not to have the time to prepare their meals. They don't like vegetables. They stay up too late and suffer from colds and fatigue. They want to do things the way they've always done things and get better and different results.

On the other hand, I hear people claim how "I've done EVERYTHING right and I still have this [fill in the blank] so there's no need to take vitamins or look at Fucoidan as a pain reliever or change my ways." You've heard people carry on this way, too.

I'm not the brightest bulb in the chandelier but for the life of me, I don't GET why people would not choose health over misery. Why would anyone opt for liver damage over vibrant, radiant, glowing good health?

Well, kids. Here's the thing. You can spring for something healthy and tasty, like the yummy stuff with the funny name: Limu; or you can suffer and have liver damage. The choice is entirely up to you.

If you want to do a bit of research, check out http://www.pubmed.org/ and look at all the massive info there about FUCOIDAN. Fucoidan is an element that helps your cells communicate with one another.

People who use Limu report improved sleeping, better numbers in their medical tests, less discomfort, fewer issues with blood sugar, improved mood and all kinds of good things. Even though the Limu company MAKES NO CLAIMS and suggests the consumer drink 4 ounces of the liquid every day for three months before deciding what it might accomplish for the user. My own personal experience was that I got relief much sooner than 90 days.

My buddy, Jerry, declares that "when he grows up, he's going to drink Limu like orange juice in big, tall glasses!" I hasten to mention that Jerry does not hurt and he can work circles around his cohorts, even though he is very much their senior!

Jerry won't have liver damage, either!

How's Your Energy?

"All matter is energy." --Albert Einstein, Theoretical Physicist

"The energy field starts it all." --Professor Harold Burr, PhD, Yale U.

Having done energy work with my massage therapy work for more years than I care to admit, I clearly understand the worth of harnessing good energy to turn on the body mechanisms that are Divinely Designed to promote healing.

When I discovered The Healing Codes , the information resonated with every cell in my being. I intuitively recognized the power that lay within.

The idea behind the codes is to 'jump start' your body's own healing mechanism. The pituitary glad, the hypothalamus, the hippocampus, and the thyroid work in symphony to serve as the control center with your own healing energy helping your body to heal itself.

My massage training indicated that the body will heal itself, if given the proper environment. That environment can include, but is not limited to proper whole, organic food and pure water, appropriate supplementation, far infrared fabrics, massage therapy, lymph drainage, adequate sleep, and moderate exercise. To be avoided: stress, toxic fumes, processed or microwaved foods, and simple carbohydrates.

My education in body work was blessed by instructors who could help their clients long distance. They often got calls from clients and students about how to help people feel better. I was aware, even as a student, that healing was about the energy of love, prayer, and caring.

The Healing Codes are all about those elements. They have received accolades from those who have benefitted by learning the Codes, by scientific minds who, intitially, were certain these codes would not work. There are reports from clients where self healing took place, even though they had been regarded as "incurable" and mainstream diagnostic tests have concluded that the Codes do consistently reduce stress from the body.

As with anything in life, there are no guarantees. But without the energy and The Healing Codes, what help would we have?

If you are content with the status of your health and you have all the energy it takes to live your life the way you are happiest, you are indeed blessed. If not, then, please take a long and serious look at The Healing Codes.

I Promise To Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

From the time I moved out of my parents' home, on New Year's Eve my parents would call me. I'd pick up the telephone and hear both of them shrieking, HAP-py NEW Year! at the top of their lungs. And we would all laugh as if that were the funniest joke on earth. It was one of the many things I missed when they were both gone.

As a family, we did not make a fuss over the old year going and the new year coming. I remember one year they were invited to a party and my dad had the flu and was not up for the festivities. I must have been 8 or 9 years old. At midnight we three sat around the kitchen table with cups of hot chocolate and my dad, the liquor store owner, groused, "Unless this cocoa has CREME DE COCOA in it I'm not much of an advertisement for my own products!" Sick as a pup, he could still joke.

Another year I recall being invited to a party hosted by one of my high school classmates. No one drove in those days. As we were walking home, someone suggested we raid the liquor cabinet of one of the absent parents. I deferred and went straight home, sure I had missed something. My parents' bragging on my 'correct behavior' more than made up for anything I may have missed. Besides, I had no headache the next day...

We have never done the resolution thing, either. We made promises to ourselves and to one another. We would promise to be kinder and more patient, to learn bigger words in the coming year, and to help more people in more ways. My folks were big on doing nice things for other people and never getting "caught", like when my dad forgave the huge grocery bill after the mother of a big family died and my mom took food to people whose kids had stolen candy from their store because she knew they were hungry.

For 2009 I promise to myself to remember all the fun I've known, and indulge in more fun, to keep in close touch with all the people I love, and to SIMPLIFY. I hope I can help people and not get "caught" and I hope I live long enough to see world peace. I promise to drink my water , eat whole foods, take my vitamins and minerals, drink that delicious stuff with the funny name- Limu. There is no reason I can't promise to maintain my health, think beautiful thoughts and live a joyous life. I promise to manifest good things for me and mine and live in abundance all through the year.

What will YOU promise YOURSELF? I'd love to know, if you care to share. Just leave your comments and it will be my delight to peruse them. Remember, I promised myself to have FUN, didn't I? wink/grin

Happy New Year, World!

Connie Baum

Have I Been DUPED?

WELL! I WILL be dipped in dew!

Headlines all over the place are insisting that all the studies prove there is no good effect from taking vitamins and minerals!

Well! Well! Well! I wonder if they will also put up BILLBOARDS to that effect...

What became of the depletion of the soils? Has THAT changed? I saw no headline to that effect and the Feds themselves made it clear in 1936 that the soils were depleted of minerals and vitamins.

I wonder what the Feds and the people who conducted those studies would have to say about the fact that when my eye was red last week I used whole foods and Limu , not to mention water and my eye was 100% improved in 24 hours. Or, how would they be able to prove that my son's terrible, debilitating, recurring infections could not be managed by antibiotics but whole foods and vitamin supplements as well as good water eliminated all signs of infection very quickly? When Big Pharma's toxic substances gave us fits with horrible side effects and no cure how does that determine that vitamins and minerals are of no consequence?

I have NO CLUE who paid for these studies that make these claims but I have a funny feeling in my gut that if one were to follow the money the facts would show what we all suspect: IT IS ALL ABOUT CONTROL AND GREED.

Hey, headlines like those in the newspapers grab readers. They must do whatever they must do. It's a free country and if you want to spend your hard earned money to take antibiotics and yield to yeast infections, that is most certainly up to you. If you want to cave in to the fearmongering and take flu shots, that's entirely your choice.

I'll be honest with you, though. I'm going to continue eating whole foods, taking and drinking whole foods supplements, drinking great water and thinking good and loving thoughts. Sidebar: That means I won't give a thought to Big Medicine, Big Pharma and all those negative side effects; mustn't give them any of my energy. End Sidebar.

I dearly hope you understand how precious your good health is. Please don't pay any mind to those silly headlines because they simply are not true.

I have NOT been duped! And don't YOU get duped, either. I would love to invite you to learn the truth about vitamins and minerals, particularly Fucoidan, for example. Please visit http://www.pubmed.org/ .
Connie Baum

Have You JUST HAD It?

Do you feel the same way I do?

Are you sick to death and tired of all the flap, all the hype, all the fund-raising and fear mongering about cancer? And other ailments, as well?

It is true that cancer has claimed many lives. And that's very sad. The tragedy of suffering and dying, the misery of the financial cost, the grief of losing people we love is heart wrenching and all of it creates terrible, painful issues with which we must deal.

With all the hand-wringing, all the fund raising, all the hype and promotion, why is no cure forthcoming?

Here is an interesting and telling fact, provided by Dr. Tullio Simoncini, an oncologist: "75% of doctors say they'd refuse chemotherapy if they were struck with cancer, due to its ineffectiveness and its side effects"

Here is an interesting fact from a medical journal called "Clinical Oncology". It is an item published about the results of a study done in December 2004. The study showed chemotherapy has a success rate of just over 2% for all cancers. Put a different way: Chemotherapy has a 98% failure rate!

Yeah. Not to mention the hideous side effects.

Current therapies are not about health. They are about control and money. Follow the money and you'll understand completely.

So...what IS the answer? To my way of thinking there are as many avenues as one might care to travel. I choose to point you in THIS direction: The Healing Codes because I know it is effective. You have heard me brag about water, whole foods, that delicious drink with the funny name, organic products, and the whole nine yards...the whole deal is that you MUST MUST MUST become less acidic and more alkaline in order to have vibrant good health!

Seriously, kids: The Healing Codes

Connie Baum

Must I Mend My Ways?

When my life was wrapped around massage therapy I was blessed to have the finest, most caring instructors imaginable. One was a cranky German woman with an accent and an attitude. She was also one of the most loving, most caring, most compassionate women who ever walked the earth: Hanna Kroger.

Part of Hanna's legacy is a book her family made available after she passed away. I was thumbing through it recently, just for my own amusement, when my eyes fell on some information that suddenly felt pertinent.

She wrote extensively about the THYROID and she described some symptoms that I have observed in other people around me. On a closer look, I realized some of them applied to me and then I rationalized: "Oh, I'm just being hypondriacal."

Am I? She reminds me from the pages of this comprehensive book that caffeine and sugar weakens the thyroid. I could feel my face redden as I recalled how she shook her finger at all of us, insisting that we live clean lives, devoid coffee and sugar!

Even though coffee with sugar and cream is my daily decandence, I realize I must give it up. And not just for Lent! I must mend my ways.

Those around me may choose to deal with thyroid issues in the traditional fashion: cut, burn, poison. But I will remember the information Hanna based her life's work on and I will allow my body to maximize its own well being with the use of proper foods, herbs, homeopathic remedies, as well as all the other tools I have implemented heretofore: water , Limu , and a diet wisely chosen.

I'm delighted to note that Hanna's dietary recommendations include some of my favorites. Broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, Kelp, oregano, and sea veggies are foods I've been craving and using lately. I find the synchronicity of that fascinating.

Hanna Kroger was ahead of her time, much to the world's good fortune.

Now, I must brew some of the tea she recommended...

When thyroids are not working properly, Energy Medicine can be a tremendous boon. Please visit The Healing Codes .

Could They Be WRONG?

Yesterday the news was splattered all over the television like blood over a crime scene...the media pretended to have a big scoop: "Supplements do not do anything good for the body" (my paraphrase).

Oh, really?

The newsman was careful to mention that the study covered a decade and included many people. One study in particular had to do with men and prostate issues. The numbers were staggering. Since I don't 'do' numbers I'll avoid specifics in that realm.

What nobody DID mention would be the KIND of supplementation that was used. Brands, types, etc. Did the test groups drink soda pop? Did the test groups get adequate rest? Did those in the test group drink good, pure, water ? How about everyone's diets? Were they eating microwaved junk? Did they dine on french fries? Did either test group get involved with exercise? What environmental elements were in place? Did these folks smoke, drink, use prescription medications?

You know that these numbers had to be rigged. For one thing, we don't know WHO PAID FOR these studies. For another, we don't know what type or brand and strength or amount of supplementation was used.

The argument that it must be genetics doesn't wash with me. I am only one person out of my entire family who does not deal with the issue of Glaucoma. My grandparents and aunts on both sides of the house lost some or all of their vision to that disease. I often wonder what good supplementation and all the rest of it would have done for them...

I'm in the Senior category, yet I do not have health issues. Surely, my body is aging and not looking the way a 40 year old body looks. But there are no achey joints, no loss of vigor, NO GLAUCOMA, and I can function quite well for someone who has been 33 years old this many times...

Maybe I'm just lucky? Yes, I am. I am lucky enough to drink Limu twice a day. I am lucky enough to drink lots of good, clean water and sleep on a bed that helps me wake refreshed and renewed. I make every effort to move my body regularly; I make sure my diet is loaded with whole foods andI get fresh raw vegetables and fruits, grains, seeds, nuts; not so much sugary stuff. I NEVER MICROWAVE FOODS and if I know foods are microwaved I avoid them like the plague. I also take a whole foods fruit and a vegetable supplement every day. Good luck provides me with pure, alkaline air to breathe in the comfort of our home.

I forgot to mention that I avoid traditional medical attention: no flu vaccines, no xrays.

Isn't it interesting that all those people in the studies found no advantage to their supplements and I am in the pink? Go figure.

Are YOU On Drugs?

By now you have come to realize what a health nut I really am. Some might argue freakishly so...however, I am quick to point out that I am exceedingly healthy, have no achey joints, and do pretty well for a kid who has been 33 as many times as I have. So maybe I am onto something? Could be.

Take my stance on prescription drugs, as an example. I have long held that prescription drugs are dangerous, full of side effects, and not good for the body. Apparently I am not alone in this idea:

"Pharmaceutical drugs may have side effects. What an intentional obfuscation this is! Pharmaceutical drugs do not have side-effects; they have EFFECTS! And lots of them! If you take drugs, plan on them affecting your health in many negative and and acidic ways."
-Dr. Robert O. Young

I'll spare you the horror stories; you probably have some of your own...I will remind you that the body is not comfy or well when it becomes acidic. Alkalinity is our friend. Here is but one way to help your body become more alkaline in a delicious, convenient way:
Limu and you can scope out the proof about what's there by visiting PubMed.org .

Have You Heard...?

I freely admit that yesterday Mother Connie ranted and raved about flu shots.

Maybe there is something in the ethers, because today I found something sitting in my Inbox which speaks to the very same topic of my rant:

"What You Don’t Know about the Flu Shot CAN Hurt You"

was the headline. I went on to read the article and learned that last year's record was not so hot: 50% of the injections were ineffective. This came, by the way, from a place called "Vitamin Research Products," an entity promoting healthy aging.

The article went on to say that side effects were a serious issue, as well.

What Big Pharma and Big Medicine do not appreciate is that the human body heals itself. Healing takes place from the TOP DOWN, the INSIDE OUT, from LEFT to RIGHT and from the PRESENT to the PAST.

You may remember the story I related about Jerry, whose healing process caused him grief, for which he "credited" me. I was only the facilitator. His body did the honor of detoxifying so Jerry could heal.

As the body heals itself the head will be the first to find relief. (TOP DOWN)

The body excuses the waste. (INSIDE OUT) The LEFT SIDE is more likely to find comfort before the RIGHT SIDE. It is very possible to dream wild dreams, have memories pop up, seemingly out of nowhere, and encounter people you have not seen in eons. (PRESENT TO PAST)

This is the reality of healing. The body does not heal because of Big Pharma and their high priced, toxic concoctions. The body does not heal because Big Medicine writes permission slips to send to Big Pharma.

It is crucial to support the immune system. It is our responsibility! By drinking good, clean, Water that is loaded with antioxidants, by eating plenty of raw vegetables and fruits, by supplementing our diets with whole foods nutrition, getting adequate rest, exercise and thinking good thoughts will offer far more benefits than any old shot! Besides, drinking 2 oz of Limu morning and night is the least painful way to beef up your health.

Beyond the suggestions I have described on this post and in order for you to be truly well from your heart, I would also direct you, with love and in truth, to The Healing Codes !

Highway Warning

This is hard to believe, people:

The average person over the age of 60 uses from 5 to 10 prescription drugs!

WHAT ARE THEY THINKING?

I suppose they are NOT thinking! They are not thinking for themselves, at any rate.

If you are connected in any way to one of those over-60 users of prescription medicines I beg you to note this news item:

"Lipitor or other statins, do NOT stave off a heart attack. Nay, statins HURRY the process!" Furthermore, some drugs are known to shrink the brain and rot the intellect within 5 years of use. The statin drugs contribute to Alzheimer's, sudden amnesia, suicide, and loss of nutrients that keep the brain healthy.

Every age group is admonished to drive as though everyone on the road is suffering from the various and sundry stages of brain rot.

No wonder our nursing homes are flourishing and Alzheimer's facilities are filling up so fast!

Thanks, but I will pass on medicine's offerings. I'll stay with my fruit caps in the morning, my veggie caps with my evening meal and the little 2 oz swigs of Limu morning and night.

You are well advised to do the very same.

The Good Old Summertime

Summer is my personal fave.

Ideally, there is an unlimited supply of lemonade. We fancy that we lie in hammocks, smelling freshly cut grass, hearing the joyous shouts of children running through sprinklers, and we think of how we walk along the city sidewalks, chatting with neighbors as we stroll along.

In reality?

We crank the A/C to its max. We complain bitterly about the heat and humidity. We fuss that our clothelines harbor garments that take too long to dry. We complain when it rains. We complain when it does not rain.

Surely there is a happy medium.

The summertime in our house has been loaded with the best of times and the worst of times.

Currently we have a houseguest who revels in the joy of spending time in a Certified Wellness Home.

We are reveling in the joy of having him with us!

The bed, the air, the water, the food, and even his garments

support the quality of health we all enjoy.

Not to mention his gregarious, hospitable host couple...

wink/grin

It's true. Norm and I are a pair of health nuts.

People snicker when they see that we carry our own iWater bottles around with us. They roll their eyes when the subject of supplements come up.

When I offer to 'do someone's colors' there is a great show of skepticism.

But we must be doing something right.

My favorite husband began to feel poorly awhile back. His brother had popped up with a diagnosis that was no fun, so Norm finally agreed to visit his local

doctor.

There were no if's, and's or but's about it.

Norm needed a pacemaker AT ONCE.

That would be the worst of times in our current summer!

When Norm's pulse dipped to 10 beats per minute the pacemaker was placed.

This was on a Thursday. On SATURDAY morning, he was released from the bondage of his hospital bed and he drove home!

To make a long story short, he is quite fine now.

The postscript to that event is the phone call we got this week.

They learned from his blood work that he has had Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, which is contracted from ticks.

Norm just chuckled.

When you have Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, you are one sick puppy.

You hurt, your head aches, you feel hot, then chilled, it's miserable.

Norm had none of that. AND, the morning of his appointment with his doctor he 'only' walked 17 blocks, plus the 3 blocks to the doctor's office.

When he reported this at the time of his doctor visit, Doc just shook his head and swore.

He was astonished at the recovery and progress of his patient.

Having Norm feeling so well is the best of times for us!

What made that possible? Well, to be sure, there had been prayers on Norm's behalf. And we would not discount the skill of the surgeons and pros who managed Norm's case.

But what about the Limu? What about the BioProduce? What about the magnetic insoles and mattress pad? What about the iWater? What about the alkaline air he breathes?

How does his vegetable rich, whole foods diet figure into this equation?

Could it BE that his regimen has supported his immune system to the point where a pesky tick had little influence on his body?

Could it be that being well hydrated, fit as a fiddle, and well nourished has really paid off in spades?

What do YOU think?

We would love for you to comment on Norm's situation.
