Good
Personal Health is our Strongest Asset
How you
maintain your personal health is very
important to your life style, your family and
longevity of all.
It seems
that in North America, all of the old medicine
practices have literally been dropped for the
new modern medicine that science and
pharmaceutical companies are promoting.
Doctors are no longer trained in this field.
Europe however has clung to many of the old
health ways and it is quite evident when you
shop abroad in their pharmacies. Now,
too, the old practices from Asia are emerging
like acupuncture and Ayurveda. Never
before have we had access to so many
treatments, attitudes and methods.
So how
do you sort your way through all of this
information. First, look at the source.
You are looking for unbiased opinions, if that
is possible.
We have
included some sources for you to get you
started. Please treat the subject
rationally. Some of the natural medicine
reads more like a religion and are totally
definitive in their approaches. Why not
mix the different theories wherever you can.
Natural medicine is ideal for preventive
medicine but things happen and there are times
when your option is the new modern medicine.
Why can't we use all of it?
This is not
a put down on the medical profession at large
as they have a lot of other issues they are
trying to juggle while attending to their
practices. Sometimes we are not the
focus of their total attention or creativity.
They do their level best and they cannot be
the total wherewithal for dealing with every
situation.

This is
where you fit in. Firstly, common sense
goes a long way. No one - absolutely no
one can appreciate just how you are feeling
and what you are dealing with on a daily
bases. If you feel you have to seek
medical attention be succinct in your
description of symptoms that are present.
"I don't feel so good", or "I am dizzy at
times", or "My joints bother me", gives your
practitioner very little to work with.
So you begin the "Trial and Results" syndrome
which is unsatisfying to both of you.
It's often quite expensive as well.
If you
suspect that you are dealing with an health
issue that is new, think about it. Start
paying attention if the time of day increases
or decreases your symptoms. Does
different kinds of food make a difference. Are
you getting enough rest? Can you get a
good night sleep? Do you have to make
pit-stops during your sleep time? Is
this new? When does your energy level
fall of? How long do you have the
chills? How long do you feel flushed?
Do either of those conditions come and go or
is it constant? Are you coping with
depressions? See? Pay
attention to yourself and even make notes so
you don't forget the little nuisances that
could help in getting good treatment quickly.
This is
a sample of what this website is all about.
We are trying to bring information to you to
also assist you in your daily health decisions
