Swine Flu Reminder

Dry Bones Cartoon - FluFrom WTAP.com
(the local NBC/Fox affiliate in my home town)


Wood County (WV) is now leading the Mountain State in confirmed swine flu cases. The total now stands at 11 confirmed cases in the county.

Dick Wittberg, the Executive Director of the Mid-Ohio Valley Health Department says that quite a few of the cases are linked and he says all but one of the infected people are between the ages of 11 and 15. Now that the West Virginia State Lab has confirmed more than five cases, the CDC no longer needs to look at the cases. This means cases are confirmed in a matter of days instead of weeks.

Health officials expect the number of cases to continue to rise this summer.

"This is not something that is likely to kill especially healthy people, but the very young are at risk and the very old are at risk. The more we can keep this contained, the less we spread it around, the longer we have to develop a vaccine for it, the more we can protect those people who need to be protected," said Wittberg.

Wittberg says he expects the outbreak to be similar to a severe flu season. He advises people to see a doctor and then stay home if they think they have the flu. Wittberg says flu always comes with a fever and is usually accompanied with a sore throat, cough, and aches. Generally it's not a stomach bug.

Concern is appropriate, but worry is not necessary. Click here for the archive of May's Abundant Living in which we discussed Swine Flu precautions in detail, or view the information on our website.

Herbs and Emotional Health
Supporting the Body Nutritionally
When Under Emotional Stress with Mood Swings


1. Take the following herbs as a whole program. Each component is necessary to maintain a nutritional balance:

a. 300 mg. of Vitamin B1* two times per day.

b. 80 drops of A.C.S. (
All Cells Salts) liquid extract or 3 A.C.S. capsules three to four times per day.

c. 80 drops of Rice Bran extract three to four times per day.

d. 80 drops of Wild Rose Hips three to four times per day. (Bilberry or Chippewa Pine may be used instead of the Wild Rose Hips.)

2. Another approach would be:

a. 300 mg. of Vitamin B1* two times per day.

b. One tablespoon of Formula M or Formula Max three to four times per day.

_______________
* Vitamin B-Complex, Balanced Vitamin B-Complex, and Nutri-Calm® are excellent sources of Vitamin B1.


Depression, Lack of Mental Clarity,
Lack of Brain Coordination, or
Thinking Process Problems

1. Refer to "Supporting the Body Nutritionally When Under Emotional Stress with Mood Swings" (above).

2. Many forms of depression, lack of mental clarity, and brain coordination are due to a lack of oxygenation and circulation. These disappear when the brain is oxygenated and proper circulation is restored. Choose one or more of the following to oxygenate the head area and take 40 to 80 drops three times per day.

A. Ginkgo

B. Eyebright

C. Wood Betony

D. Blessed Thistle

3. See the article on Oxygenation.

4. See the article on Green Drink.

5. Take 40 drops of Cudweed three times per day. This fine herb was rediscovered by a great Amish herbalist who proposed that the plant contains a form of organic Lithium (a metallic mineral). Its ability to correct emotional torment and abnormal behavior of men and women is much desired. When one reaches for help on emotional problems, there is an answer.

6. To support the adrenal glands:

a. Take 40 to 80 drops of Licorice Root three to four times per day.

b. Take 40 drops to one tablespoon of Formula Three three to four times per day.

c. Take 40 drops to one tablespoon of Bee Pollen Special three to four times per day.

d. Take 40 drops to one tablespoon of Three Bees three to four times per day.

7. See the articles on "Low Blood Sugar," "Protein and Suggested Sources," and "Dietary Suggestions: No-No's."

8. Take 40 to 80 drops of either Gentian or Sweet Root three times per day or with each meal or snack.

9. See the articles on "Allergies."

10. Poisons in the body may be the root cause of depression:

a. Take 10 to 40 drops of either Black Cohosh or Virginia Snake Root three times per day.

b. Take 40 drops of Yellow Dock three to four times per day.

c. See the article on "Green Drink" (Intensive Use).

d. See the articles on "Gall Bladder Flush" and "Oil Change."

e. See the article on "Bowel Management Program."

f. See the article on "Parasite Remedies."

11. Take 40 to 80 drops of Gotu Kola three times per day to balance the brain chemistry.

12. Get out into the light for at least ˝ hour per day, without glasses or contact lenses, to feed the light-activated pineal gland.

13. Take 3 drops of Universal E.R. Two three times per day. In time of crisis, put 12 drops in 4 ounces of water and sip it.

14. Take 40 drops of Scullcap and Skunk Cabbage three times per day or whenever feeling "nervous."

15. Take 40 drops of Sanicle three times per day if melancholy.

16. Take 40 to 80 drops of Blue Vervain three times per day if restlessness or external pressures are causing you problems.

17. Take 40 drops of Wild Lettuce three times per day to balance the nerves electrically.

18. Take 40 drops of Golden Bough three times per day if your nerves feel "frayed."


Panic/Anxiety Attacks

The root cause of this problem is often exhausted adrenal glands or the spine being out of alignment.

1. To supplement exhausted adrenal glands, take one teaspoon to one tablespoon of Formula Three and Three Bees three to four times per day.

2. See the article on "Keeping the Spine and Neck in Alignment."

3. To help the nervous system take:

a. Rice Bran Extract 80 drops to one tablespoon three times per day.

b. The system may be deficient in Biotin (a B vitamin). See the article on "Dietary Suggestions No-No's." Biotin may be deficient if the diet includes rancid fats, saccharin (which inhibits its absorption), and/or when using sulfa drugs and antibiotics. Since Biotin is not produced in the intestines from foods, it is important to have a diet that is made up of whole foods that haven't been processed or adulterated.

c. Take 40 to 80 drops of A.C.S. (All Cells Salts) liquid extract or 2 to 3 A.C.S. capsules three to four times per day.

d. When the pace of life pushes you instead of you controlling it, Blue Vervain can often help obtain a calmer condition and make the world appear less disturbing. Take 40 to 80 drops of Blue Vervain three times a day to calm the nerves.

e. Whenever a person sees the suffering of hypertension or stress, Scullcap should be thought of at once to ease the physical effects. It does not produce a "zombie-like" effect as drugs often do, but works to normalize activity and prevent hyperactivity. Concentration is possible once again. Take 80 drops of Scullcap three times per day for repair.

f. During an "anxiety attack," take one drop at a time of Indian Tobacco until the body relaxes.

4. Take 40 drops of Gentian three times per day as a digestaid.

5. See the article on "Bowel Maintenance Program."

6. For additional suggestions see the articles on "Low Blood Sugar" and "Attention and Behavior Type Problems."

on this OzoneFresh Refrigerator Unit
(Discontinued item - Available while supplies last)

What is Ozone?

Ozone is a bluish, water-soluble gas that has a distinctive, clean smell. It is created naturally in the atmosphere by ultraviolet rays, but it can also be created safely and efficiently with an ozone generator. Ozone is known to kill microbes, molds and viruses, including:
  • E. coli
  • Salmonella
  • Strep and Staph
  • Candida albicans
  • Pesticides
And the OzoneFresh generator will remove odors in your refrigerator. Due to its natural oxidizing properties, ozone purifies 3,000 times faster than chlorine-without the unwanted side effects. Ozone is completely safe.

Help protect your health with OzoneFresh, and you'll be protecting your pocketbook too! The NSP Ozone Refrigerator Unit is a powerful point-of-use purifier to help keep your food as fresh as the day you bought it.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave ozone a rating of Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for food storage to significantly reduce the occurrence of deadly molds and bacteria that can appear without warning in many foods.

I personally have had one of these in my refrigerator for about six years, and I really like it a lot.
