 ASK LENA Q & A EDITION!

===========================
 
The answers to questions submitted each week come from my 20+ years as a Medical Office Nurse along with many years and ongoing education in nutritional and alternative treatment modes. Add that to many years of friendship with Dr. Wayne Garland, a very knowledgeable naturopath and herbologist, who many years ago, beat his cancer death sentence given by the traditional medical world, has helped along the alternatives path and hopefully help to give hope to those who need it... Also receiving a lot of study reports and try to ascertain if they are good or bad then report them to you, which has increased my knowledge along the way and I pass them on to you to use or not...

I am not a doctor or dentist and you should not think of me as one!!
My years observing life and health of the many people/patients around me and the contradictions of the traditional medical world's idea of treating - prescription domino effect - while watching those same schooled methods that aren't relieving illness but creating far more than they help. Those same medical professionals aren't telling people how to get healthy or how to prevent illness, which led me to look for something to change that premise for myself and those around me. In looking outside the Westernized medical profession I found and continue to find alternatives that really work to create health and longevity -when adhered to - beyond anything the traditional medical world can do...

Ask Lena Health Questions and Answers is for your information and education only and in some instances to give you a different perspective on a particular problem! My wish for you, in the use of the information gained here, is that you will apply it in a smart and safe manner in order to enhance your life and not harm it! Not to be used in place of your judgment but in  addition to... Even though I daily watch people become healthy with the information imparted here nothing works 100% of the time for 100% of people...

I have always felt that I had to know all sides to a problem and then make a decision for myself and I hope that will be your attitude as well!

QUESTION #1:

Hi, My husband has high blood pressure and recently got put on meds. He's been told to goto a  low salt diet.
I've been a real fan of high quality sea salt since it seems to have so many health benefits. Should he also avoid that?
thank you
Ginny


ANSWER:
 
Thank you for the question Ginny.

First make sure he needs the BP medication... I'm finding way too many people being put on BP medications that end up in real trouble because they did not need it. When the drug industry lowered the normal BP readings a few years ago it brought about MUCH TOO MUCH  prescribing of unnecessary BP medication and trouble for thousands upon thousands of people...  Sometimes right away side effects show up with lethargy, weakness, severe dehydration, bone and/or joint pain and malnutrition.  If his normal BP at home runs between 110/70 up to 159/94 medication not required. Now the medical profession will disagree with me but in my twenty years assisting doctors and doing BP readings and watching the outcome of BP medications, there were far less heart problems and strokes than we now have after giving those meds. Lots of people, mostly men, run a slightly elevated BP in the doctors office as they have a hard time talking to doctors about health concerns or even being there makes them nervous, yet at home will run fine unless upset about something. Nerve induced hypertension does not warrant BP meds but does warrant stress control.

As to low salt and/or no salt, that would apply with ordinary table salt but not sea salt. Ordinary table salt, that the majority use, really doesn't have enough salt to even call salt once it is processed it is nothing more than chemicals... Have you read my article "Is A Salt Substitute The Answer To High Blood Pressure"? That will explain why I can say that as well as the reason to stay away from salt substitutes.

Also tell your husband that if he does have hypertension we can take care of it with herbs and minerals without the side effects of BP meds... To ask how click to email us and include weight, age and any supplements and/or medication he is taking and Dr. Garland can get him a healthy hypertension prevention/repair protocol. He will have to ask as he will not talk to second parties as most of the time the patient will not listen to a second party. I know it works as several of my family and friends have turned around their hypertension with herbs and minerals. Sometimes nothing more than a diet change along with daily walking will do the trick.

Regards,

Lena

QUESTION #2:
 
We have a 13+ year old cat who suffers from hyperthyroid.  We are wondering if there is a holistic treatment rather than her present RX which is a generic for Tapazole (methimazole - 5 mg) BID.
 
Thanks
Ruth

 
ANSWER:
 
Since I'm not the animal expert and Dr Garland treats them regularly I put this question to him and his reply was;
 
Dear Ruth,
 
YES, GET OUR THYROID ENERGY FORMULA!
 
I  think either LIQUID DROPS
Dosage: 10lbs and under; three drops per day.
11lbs to 25lbs; four drops per day.
25lbs to 50lbs; five drops per day.
50lbs to 100ls; six drops per day.
Put suggested number of drops directly into purified drinking water. 
 
OR THYROID ENERGY CAPSULE FORMULA
and in severe cases both!
1 capsule daily opened and mixed with food up to 25 lbs. Over 25 lbs. 2 capsules.

Either one will give the thyroid a jolt and wake it up to work correctly.
The liquid is more fast acting but the capsule is sometimes easier to get into most animals.

Along with that give it LIFE TRANSFUSION IONIC LIQUID MINERALS DAILY
This foundation formula provides your cat or any pet with all the essential minerals and trace minerals their body needs to thrive. The ionic delivery of the minerals ensures your pet will achieve 100% assimilation of these "keys to life" and needed to reach the state of Health.
Dosage:
10lbs and under; 2-3 drops per day.
11lbs to 25lbs; 3-5 drops per day.
25lbs to 50lbs; 5-10 drops per day.
50lbs to 100lbs; 10-20 drops per day.
Administer in purified drinking water on mixed into their food.
Usually when animals or humans supplement daily with balanced minerals health problems are averted by 99% of them.
 
We have treated eight thoroughbred race horses for this very problem over the past year with 100% SUCCESS. Of course horses require much larger dosages than cats or dogs due to their size.
 
NO TREATS SHOULD BE GIVEN, PLEASE!!!
 
SWITCH TO "SOLID GOLD" CAT FOOD FORMULA. FIND FOUND AT PETCO.
 
Dr G.

Thought for the Day

 I've raved quite a lot about antibiotic overuse and the havoc it can wreak on your personal health.

Now it seems the drastic upswing in antibiotic use that has occurred over the past few decades is just as much a public health issue as it is a personal one. In fact, it's one of the primary causes of the skyrocketing rates of a thoroughly unpleasant infection called C. difficile.

C. diff, as it's commonly referred to, causes severe diarrhea and blood poisoning and can be fatal. And, as the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) stated recently, it "often results when antibiotic use suppresses the bacteria normally found in the colon."

Take that little tidbit of information and combine it with the other fact just released in the AHRQ report -- that rates of C. diff increased by 200 percent over a five-year period, from 2000 to 2005. Certainly sounds like a clear-cut case of antibiotic abuse, as well as a lack of taking Probiotics during and at least a week after antibiotic consumption.

THE POWER OF SOLITUDE

Herman Melville's classic, Moby Dick, portrays the whaling industry of his time. In today's world, his book may likely upset readers who share more enlightened attitudes about the use and abuse of animals. But a scene in the story can teach us even today something about the power of solitude and focus in daily life.

Melville gives us a turbulent scene in which a whaleboat scuds across a frothing ocean in pursuit of the great white whale. The sailors are laboring to keep the vessel on course in a raging sea, every muscle taut. They labor furiously as they concentrate on the task at hand. In Captain Ahab's boat, however, there is one man who does nothing. He doesn't hold an oar; he doesn't perspire; he doesn't shout. He is languid - utterly relaxed, quiet and poised. This man is the harpooner, and his job is to patiently wait for the moment. Then Melville gives us this sentence: "To insure the greatest efficiency in the dart, the harpooners of this world must start to their feet out of idleness, and not out of toil."

What a marvelous picture for effective living! Those who would live each day to the fullest must prepare for them from a state of idleness rather than toil. For many people this means a daily period of quiet and meditation to focus, plan or pray.

Self help expert Brian Tracy calls it an indispensible daily time of planning and preparation. He suggests that we devote a full hour to alone time every morning. That is when we set our daily priorities so that we, and not events, are in charge of our lives.

"I don't have time for that!" some people complain. "My life is simply too busy to add one more thing to it."

But most people find that a regular period of solitude to chart the day's course, still the mind, listen and prepare actually creates more time than it takes. For we are most effective when we start to our feet out of idleness and not out of toil.
