[sdiy] O/T Prescribed Drugs

[Bob Weigel]

It's a crime Graham.  The Pharmaceutical companies use a very convoluted 
approach. So many problems are just stemming from an aspect of 
malnutrition.  We just have a basic failure on the part of some 
pseudo-scientists, to recognize that the body is an amazing machine and 
if you just feed it the right substances, it's cells can flourish in the 
tasks the were designed to do.

Long ago I realized that side effect causing things in general are to be 
steered away from.  I just had faith that the God who made me had a 
better plan for me that to damage one part of the body to help another.  
:-) 

So here I am..49 years old and still playing basketball competatively 
with decent high school players.  (Well save the past few months where 
I'm trying to recondition a knee that started giving me some 
troubles...hehe.. but I mean last year I was still dunking on a good day 
at 6' with short arms!!)  Now many of those years I didn't even have a 
great diet.  In fact for my whole life I had a weak immune system.  
Probably because of immunizations as a kid and not being breast fed...  
The concept of simply building up the cells with good nutrition so that 
they can kick the butt of any intruder... has been substituted for a 
'quick fix' solution which is indeed convoluted and actually damages the 
immune system.

But about 4 or so years ago I began..consistently taking a powder shake 
mix supplement that has a short life once you mix it.  I dropped from 
being sick an average of a couple weeks a year (I mean DOWN time..not 
counting the month I'd caugh and the disabling allergies etc.) to TWO 
DAYS the past several!!  By far the best in my whole life.  Why?  The 
cells obviously have the materials they need to work with so that they 
can do their job.  When I get sick it lasts a short time intead of just 
laying their in misery for a week at a time with a fever that won't go 
away!!

The difference good nutrition can make is remarkable.  I really don't 
believe a fully equipped body is in danger of being overtaken by flu's 
etc. if a person upon getting the disease does anything remotely right.  
(ie. rests, forces liquids etc.  Some virus' it's best to just soak them 
out.  But if you have a body that is prepped with the right nutrition 
before the disease hits, then the body is able to very quickly subdue it 
as compared to trying the same treatment when the body isn't prepped 
I've found..)

Anyway that 's my finding..  I'm a good case study because I've been 
100% drug free pretty much since children's aspirin days :-)  (Unless 
you count dental anesthetic I guess and one broken bone surgery..)   
Even when I broke my wrist though I didn't take any pain killers etc.  
So it makes the night/day difference the nutrition made much less 
questionable I'm just saying.    Drugs can really complicate the 
picture.. -Bob
