 ASK LENA HEALTH Q & A EDITION!
====================================

Today's QUESTION and Steve's MOTIVATOR somewhat belong together, not that the question has anything to do with Steve's motivator except the initial health issue is the same. His article points out the problem of mass hysteria and how belief created it. Our questioner isn't in that hysteria mode, so don't confuse the issues as he has a true health issue. Did I confuse you there? Read both then you will understand!

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 health problems 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:
 
Within the last few months several of my family members, brother, niece, wife and daughter, have had bouts with Ecoli that really devastated them for weeks and almost killed my niece so I have two questions. Why just some of the family came down with it when we all ate the same food? Then is there anything we can do to prevent it from happening if we are exposed to Ecoli again?
 
Hopefully you can help us by answering those questions.
Russell T.
 
 
ANSWER:
 
Russell, I'm sorry your family has had to endure this bacterium but happy that each survived.
 
Let me say first that Escherichia coli (E-Coli, E.coli, Ecoli)  has been in foods forever but traditional aka conventional medicine either fail to recognize that or stick their heads in the sand as they so often do when they have no idea how to truly treat and/or prevent a problem. This problem in its lightest form has been diagnosed as food poisoning also.
 
Why only some and not all? These days so many have weakened immune systems from not having the proper nutrients in our foods that are more susceptible. So what is eaten daily affects your immune system's ability to fight invading bacteria, viruses or fungi. That will make the difference in whether your body reacts to bacteria, viruses or fungi when exposed!
 
A hundred or more years ago when we didn't have access to McDonald's, Burger King, Taco Bell, processed and prepackaged foods, which are all foods lacking in NUTRIENT VALUE. There were very little E-Coli or Salmonella outbreaks around back then even though more often exposed due to the uncleanliness back then. Sure there were small outbreaks of diarrhea, nausea and weakness, all symptoms of food bacterial contamination yet very few and seldom ever life threatening came down with the culprits and only in those who did not have access to enough foods to keep them healthy usually did.
 
By asking me these questions I suspect have not nor do you get my Ask Lena Health Q & A newsletter regularly. I also suspect you haven't read my articles Digestion The Path To Health Or Illness or Ecoli and Salmonella Simple Prevention!. or you would have the answers to both your questions. But that is perfectly okay as there are millions of people who do not read my articles or newsletter therefore do not know about prevention or fighting off E-Coli or Salmonella. If more people did read them we would not hear of all the E-Coli and Salmonella outbreaks... I suggest that you take time to read both articles before going on so you can better understand my answers and how they will help you and family's malady.
 
Information the majority of people do not know nor does Conventional/Traditional Medicine understand the why's. Or if they do know have no idea what to do about it!
 
E-Coli is less apt to flourish in a healthy intestinal system! But most importantly a healthy intestinal system means a healthy immune system sense as much as 80% of the immune system lies within the intestinal tract. If you read the articles above you have found the answers I have for you. If you failed to read them let me paraphrase them here...

Treatments that I and others have found to work without antibiotics that both treat and prevent problems such as your family; 

1 - Minerals balance not only important to the digestive tract but also keep the heart and other organs functioning as they should. If the vomiting and diarrhea are really severe you may need to drop liquid minerals on pieces of fruit or vegetables as well as add drops to juices and water. This step is absolutely necessary to prevent dehydration from putting a person in the hospital or killing them from heart failure during dehydration?

2 - Add Sufficient Probiotics and Digestive Enzymes to the intestinal track to help kill of dangerous bacteria naturally. This addition will overcome and kill the offending bacteria that already exist, such as candida/yeast that overgrows when the rest of the good flora is missing... Ecoli cannot take hold of your system when a balanced intestinal ecosystem exists.  Better yet, have your intestinal tract so tuned up that bad bacteria/germs can't get access to it?  

3 - Ionic Silver Water - 2 Tablespoons morning and evening for two or three days - Ionic Silver Water is known to kill over 640 offending bacteria/virus/fungal, even those that hide in the system from prescription antibiotics and come out later to cause problems again.  This is a very common happening with the bacteria and germs going around after sixty-plus years of manmade antibiotics have become resistant and/or smart at hiding. Yes, I know that sounds strange but never-the-less very true and backed up by many studies and physicians.

These three supplements should be in your medicine war chest (not in the moist bathroom cabinet), at all times and the balanced minerals should be consumed by every human and animal on a daily basis to keep the body's organs healthy and functioning as they are meant to function! You can consume all the vitamin rich foods or supplements in the world but they cannot be absorbed or utilized if the body isn't balanced in minerals and a healthy digestive system isn't working correctly.

If you do not have or know of a supplier for the above you can find all three at www.antibiotic-alternatives.com/herbal_pharmacy.htm or you can call Lena 928-636-9425 to arrange to have Ionic Silver Water, Life Transfusion Ionic Liquid Minerals and/or Proactivator Probiotic Enzymatic Formula sent to you by Priority mail and most are delivered within 2 to 3 days of placing the order!

I wish you and your family a healthy life and no more of these culprits to upset it!
Lena

Mineral Supplements
 
Like tuning up your car to increase its gas mileage, eating more magnesium-rich foods improves your body's conversion of food to energy.

According to studies by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, women ages 55 to 70 were able to ride an exercise bike for equal lengths of time regardless of whether they were getting enough magnesium. But they burned 15 percent more oxygen while on a magnesium-poor diet, and their heart rates averaged nine beats a minute faster.

In other words, they got fewer miles to the metabolic gallon.

To get more magnesium, eat greens daily (especially spinach, Swiss chard, kale and lettuce) and grains (especially bran). You can also take a mineral supplement that includes magnesium. More than 350 mg daily could decrease the risk!

BELIEVE IT

Writer Norman Cousins tells about a football game at which a doctor found himself treating five spectators for stomach disorder. Each complained of nausea, dizziness and cramps. Upon checking, the doctor learned that all five had previously consumed soft drinks from the arena's concession stands. In the interest of protecting public safety, an announcement was made to the crowd that it would be wise to forego drinks in the stadium because certain people were becoming ill.

By the third quarter of the game, 200 people - all of whom had been slurping sodas - were reporting the same symptoms. Half of these hurried off to a nearby hospital. Later in the afternoon the doctor determined that his five original patients had also eaten potato salad from the same delicatessen on the way to the game. The potato salad, not the drinks, was apparently the culprit.

An announcement was made. Almost immediately those who were sick felt remarkably better. The fans taken to the hospital were sent home as their symptoms quickly disappeared.

All of this goes to show the tremendous power of belief. What we believe to be true will often become true.

The power of our beliefs will dramatically affect our future. Like automaker Henry Ford said, "Whether you think you can or not, you are right." If you believe you will succeed or fail, you are probably right. If you believe strongly enough that something good or bad will surely happen to you, it likely will.

Mahatma Gandhi found this principle to be true in his own experience. "If I believe I cannot do something, it makes me incapable of doing it," the Indian leader said. "But when I believe I can, then I acquire the ability to do it, even if I did not have the ability in the beginning."

Where did that ability come from? Was it the sheer power of his belief that gave him the capacity to do what seemed impossible? He was sure that was the case.

Great belief is great power. And probably more than any other single factor, great belief that something just might be possible... can bring about what we want in life.

Believe it.
