 ASK LENA Q & A EDITION!

===========================
 
The answers to questions submitted to me 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...

QUESTION #1:
 
I just run across your website and was puzzled as your site seems to dwell on the fact that you think prescription antibiotics are bad for you. Why? and what's wrong with penicillin as it's been around for many years? If what you say is true what alternatives do we have when a serious infection happens?

Thanks for your question.
 
I did not find your email listed in
Ask Lena Health Questions & Answers subscriber therefore I have taken the liberty of adding your email to my  newsletter subscriber list, so you will again read your question and my answer there but if you wish to not receive the newsletter information for unsubscribing is in each announcement sent out and you can remove yourself or let me know and I will remove you...
 
I would guess you did not go deeper into my website or you would have your answer... I will try to give you a short answer even though it would require a book to truly explain it completely?
 
I'm not the only one issuing concerns and warnings regarding not only penicillin but all manmade antibiotic dangers.
 
The government is also issuing warnings to doctors and other health care providers by way of medical journals, which from my experience in medical offices, most doctors never read. Even if they did doctors, for the most part, have no back bone and will prescribe an antibiotic for colds, flu and other viruses, simply because a patient ask for it.  See those government's warnings at their FDA site
 
Your question is mainly about penicillin and here's my explanation as to why I can say it's bad... I'm sure if you watch TV or read a newspaper you have read about deaths from flesh eating bacteria Known by most of us as mega-bacteria... Those types of mega-bacteria deaths were extremely rare prior to the 70's. Why? Because Penicillin has been overused and abused and has created havoc with the bacterial germ and virus world. Simply because the bacteria have become smart and mutated into bacterium that can't be touched with penicillin and in a HUGE number of cases NO PRESCRIPTION ANTIBIOTIC will touch them causing loss of lives.  Hence mega-bacteria and flesh eating bacteria is thriving and becoming much worse and more deadly. It took two or three decades before the dangerous bacterium deaths started to show up. Partly because; prior to that people treated themselves at home with herbs and natural remedies and didn't rush to the doctor's for a miracle cure. Then happened largely because the pharmaceutical industry started their advertising push in the 60's as TV became popular, drug industry grew and people became convinced, from that advertising, that the medical world had all the answers to treating health issues and the old ways of treating was wrong. People began to flock to doctors negating their own decisions and the medical schools stopped teaching anything other than poisoning germs or cutting out the results of those germs.
 
Penicillin isn't the only antibiotic that is dangerous to the world health but other antibiotics and one that accelerated the growth of mega-bacteria are the anti-bacterial cleaners around the home, hospitals and doctor's offices. The use of those antibacterial cleansers are creating mutants as I write this and 8 people a minute are dying in the U.S. all day every day from those mutated bacterium. These deaths are being document by CDC and they are issuing warnings to the medical world as well as us common people.
 
What is wrong with penicillin and why is antibiotic usage so dangerous to us?
 
  1. Antibiotics routinely given ALL MEAT animals are not cooked out of the meat therefore people are getting doses of antibiotics when eating non organically grown meats. So every man, woman and child eating meat and then taking a prescribed antibiotic are consuming antibiotics.
  2. Drinking water from municipal water systems throughout the world are full of antibiotic residue as well since the systems cannot filter out the chemicals put into the water system. You put that all together and you have danger lurking with each of us... See medicated-waterways.
  3. Manmade chemical antibiotics kill your immune system setting you up for more illness while the body struggles to rebuild your much needed immune system, which can take months to years after ingesting chemical prescriptions of all kinds but the worst are antibiotics.
 
 
This topic is way too complex to give you the whole story in a short column. For more indepth information you need to read my book "Antibiotic Alternatives To Preventing Mega Bacteria,"  
 
You ask "What alternatives do we have?"
 
There are safe antibiotic alternative! One that my family, friends and I choose to take is a non-mutating old fashion remedy that has proven to kill more than 640 bacteria, fungus and viruses without mutating a single bacterium. My family and I have used it for more than fifteen years and no prescription antibiotic has entered our bodies in the time period. To learn why we choose that Click Here to read why it is so amazing and what it does!
 
I cannot let this question go without saying that there is one supplement that can bolster the immune system and make it less likely to become ill and that requires Balancing Your Minerals daily? To those who have been following my newsletter all these years it will not be news but to you and those who have not followed Please read the ABC's Of Minerals to understand why balancing your minerals is so important! 

Thank you for your question

 
 
QUESTION #2:
 
  About a week ago, I woke up, feeling as if my hand had "gone to sleep." The feeling did not go away; numbness and a tingling sensation in my left pinkie and ring finger, extending to the heel of my palm and up the arm. It currently feels this way, along with stiffness in the joints and arm. I spoke to a paramedic with a local ambulance service, and he said it sounded like a pinched nerve; and that I should see a neurologist.
(I have an appointment tomorrow with my general practitioner) What is your opinion on the possibilities? I'm hoping it is not carpal tunnel syndrome or anything requiring surgery. The bright side is that I DO have good insurance, including both short and long term disability, if I do need surgery.
 
Gerry

 
 
ANSWER:
 
Hi Gerry,

Pinched nerve is most likely correct, but seeing a neurologist or primary MD is a waste of time and money as they have no true help for you... All they will do is give you what they deem a relaxer-antispasmodic, which doesn't do a thing for the problem over the long haul and can be hazardous to your liver - the pkg. insert will tell you that and much more - and if you drive or use machinery while taking them dangerous to other parts of your body as it makes it almost impossible to make smart choices and slows your reflexes... See a good Chiropractor, that will not require more than three visits for correcting the problem, or Physical Therapist as they can actually remove the problem that is causing the pinched nerve... The area indicated by the pinkie and ring finger is in the upper back...   Do not let this go as it will create further havoc with your back and other organs of the body... Even if it was Carpal Tunnel, which doesn't just start all at once like that, making it unlikely this CT...Carpal Tunnel can be corrected without surgery but don't expect your doctor to know that... Conventional medicine cannot effectively treat carpal tunnel and would put your wrist in a soft splint, which would make it worse in the long run... Again a chiropractor or Physical Therapist will treat nerves, muscles, tendons and actually loosen the nerves to move the way they are suppose to... I've seen my friend correct Carpal Tunnel  and you can learn how to do it at home five minutes a night - that information at Julie Donnely's Carpal Tunnel Treatment Center.

Make sure you are taking the balanced minerals daily to help your muscles and tendons retain the proper nourishment to strengthen your nerves and tendons, making it less likely to be compromised...
 
Gerry's return email after he received my answer:
 
Lena!
     You were 100% on the mark with your advice. I had already scheduled an appointment with my MD at the time I wrote you. But he did exactly as you said he would....prescribed some meds I couldn't tolerate, and told me if it didn't get better within 3 weeks, I'd probably need surgery.
     But surgery is the last resort, so I found a good chiropractor, and felt results almost immediately. I told her about you and your advice, and she was thrilled to hear about you. I may have to give her your subscription address.
 
Thanks a million, Lena! You made me a very happy man.
God Bless You! 
Gerry

Good luck and great health!
Lena

Whether You Want To Or Not You Are Going To Need To Take Control Of Your Health Care! 

A report, just out, notes that less than a quarter of current U.S. med students are planning on practicing internal medicine once they graduate – and only two percent intend to become general practitioners.

Those numbers don't bode well, especially since statistics show that the number of elderly adults in the U.S. could double between now and the year 2030. This could leave the U.S. as many as 200,000 doctors short by the year 2020. Since you can’t see a specialist without a primary care physician’s referral, as 99% of the insurance carriers demand, you will be caught without a doctor.

SOLVING OUR GREATEST PROBLEMS

We have great problems. Insurmountable problems! But we can solve even our most difficult problems if we work together.

Some of the greatest problems we face today are concerned with the gradual destruction of our environment through over-use and abuse of our resources. Unsightly brown clouds; wildlife extinctions; water that can't be consumed; the disappearance of ancient glaciers. these problems all seem so huge.

So my family does what we can. We take cloth bags to the grocery store instead of using paper or plastic grocery sacks. We buy organic foods when possible. We walk where we don't have to drive. Our home, like many of yours, is filled with compact fluorescent bulbs and we use water saving faucets.

But does it do any good? When I am the only one in line at the grocery store with cloth bags, am I doing any good? Does my walking to the store or shivering under the drizzle of my anemic shower head make any real difference to the world?

I recently learned something about flamingos - which probably behave like many migrating birds. These exquisite birds flock in huge groups of a thousand or more. Every year, when the time comes for migration,  a few flamingos start the process by taking off from the lake. But none of the others seem to notice, so the tiny group returns.

However, the next day they try again. This time a few more struggle along with them, but the vast majority still pay no attention, so these pioneers come back.

The trend continues for several more days. Every time a few more birds join in but, since the thousands of others still take no notice, the great migration plan is once more aborted.

Then one day something changes. The same small group of birds once again takes wing and a tiny number more join in, just as before. And this time their total number, though still quite small, is enough to tip the balance. As one, the whole flock takes flight and the migration begins. What a spectacular sight it must be - thousands of flamingos taking to the sky at once!

A few CAN make a difference. It's true that all of the great problems of the world have been solved because of the persistent efforts of a few.

Anthropologist Margaret Mead put it like this: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

If you believe in a cause, don't give up! Others will someday take notice and together we will solve even our greatest problems.
