- TO YOUR HEALTH!

If your doctor is unhealthy, fire them!

A headline like this is not meant to be harsh or provocative but rather thought-provoking. Do not misunderstand the headline. It is not meant to suggest that you should fire your healthcare providers if they happen to be sick or unhealthy due to circumstances beyond their control. This may include an accident, genetic defect etc. However, if they are sick or unhealthy due to their own ignorance or willful neglect, it may be time to give them the pink slip! Let me ask you this: if you were struggling to quit an alcoholic addition would you want to waste your time and money being counseled by a healthcare professional who also struggled to overcome it? Would you keep listening to a pastor who was not living what he was preaching? The obvious answer to these questions is no. So why do we pay doctors and nurses to check our health and help us either recover or maintain our good health if those same doctors and nurses are not healthy themselves?

Healthy healthcare providers?

It can be difficult to determine the health of your healthcare provider just by looking at them especially if there are no obvious signs of obesity among other things. It is true that not every person who appears to be “big-boned” is unhealthy. It also true that not every slim person is healthy because of how their body may appear. This is where communication between you as the patient and your healthcare provider is imperative. They expect you to be open and honest about the lifestyle choices you make that contribute to your health or lack thereof; it should be reciprocal. Your relationship with your healthcare provider regarding your health should be a two-way street. If they recommend you to become and stay as healthy as possible, is it too much to see the same from them, since after all, you are paying them, they aren’t paying you? Healthcare professionals should be setting a good example for their patients. When you go for a check-up, they are essentially interviewing you, so to hold them accountable to you (their customer) it would be helpful if you also conducted your own interview.

It is important for patients to know their healthcare provider’s state of health. An online Times of Malta article entitled Doctors and Nurses Don’t Always Have Healthy Habits referring to a US study reported in Mayo Clinic Proceedings explained that, along with the general public, many medical professionals in the U.S. lead unhealthy diets and lifestyles which in turn can induce illnesses. A report on Time.com entitled What to do about Docs who Smoke, Drink, and Tan said “It’s unrealistic to expect that knowledge should prompt physicians to avoid unhealthy behaviors… Just like everybody else, they have a low-risk perception with regard to their health”. To reinforce the idea that it would be good to hold our doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals accountable to us as their patients the article also stated that, “physicians and nurses have the same level of obesity as the general population. Our caregivers are human too and can succumb to same behaviors that everyone else can.” Be assured that this article is not meant to tear down our healthcare providers by any means, but rather to build them up because a healthy society needs healthy healthcare providers. This information is a resource to encourage those in the healthcare profession to reach a higher standard of health excellence. Not only for their own lives but for the lives of their patients as well.

An article on Amednews.com, entitled Overweight Doctors Lose Credibility on Health Advice states, “To help strengthen physician-patient relationships, overweight or obese physicians should discuss their weight during office visits with new patients or when discussing health behaviors such as diet and exercise, said Phyllis A. Guze, MD, a Los Angeles internist and infectious diseases specialist.” This same article also stated, “Dr. Guze urges overweight physicians to heed the diet and exercise advice they often give their patients, including eating more fruits and vegetables and fewer processed foods.” The unfortunate fact of the matter is that the healthcare providers are not entirely to blame. It is the broken education and medical establishment that is the greatest concern. When we factor in the long and stressful work environment and abundance of fast food/processed foods (low in nutritional value) at many hospitals, is it that hard to see why healthcare providers could fail to be the examples of health they should be?

Hippocrates, known as the “father of western medicine”, inspired the creation of the “Hippocratic Oath”. This is still invoked by physicians swearing to practice medicine where the patient’s health needs come first. However, as the phrase, “charity begins at home” goes, in this case refers to the notion that healthcare providers should be able to properly manage their own health before they can consistently advise it to their patients. As Dr. George Malkmus’ Health News Tip put it, “Today’s medical schools do not train doctors to treat patients’ symptoms with food as Hippocrates so wisely advised. Rather they are trained that for every disease there is a symptom and for every symptom there is a drug. It’s not surprising when one considers that the drug industry invests huge sums of money into the schools that train doctors. Thus these drug companies are able to exert great influence on the curriculum.” Physicians, nurses etc are trained in a medical environment that puts the bottom line before the health of the healthcare providers or their patients.

The American Medical Association has reported that, “health professionals face many of the same challenges as the public in maintaining a healthy weight. Among the key factors that contribute to overweight and obesity among doctors is a lack of work-life balance, insufficient time to eat and exercise properly, stress and too little sleep”. According to the Atlantic Magazine online, students from John Hopkins University (JPU) started the Patient Promise project in order help get patients healthier by first getting clinicians healthier. The website thepatientpromise.org defines this project, “as a unique commitment between healthcare professionals and patients that aims to instill a deep sense of partnership into their relationship and, in the process, change the culture of healthcare. Practitioners and students of medicine, nursing, and related fields can “lead by example” by practicing similar healthy lifestyle behaviors - physical activity, balanced nutrition, stress management - that they ask of their patients”. Nobel Peace Prize-winning physician Albert Schweitzer is quoted by the Atlantic as stating that, "Example is not the main thing in influencing others. It is the only thing." Following this advice the medical students at JPU that are behind the Patient Promise are looking to promote what their website calls a “Hippocrates not hypocrisy” culture with the healthcare provider community.

Ways you can give them a check up

To reiterate, making an assumption based on physical appearance alone is not the best way to determine the status of someone’s health. It is helpful to ask your healthcare providers good questions. Asking minimal yes or no questions might seem sufficient, but it would be wise to avoid asking too many of these type of questions as they do not provoke thoughtful responses. You need to know some open-ended questions to ask them (either over the phone or in person) to help you know if they too are living what they would prescribe for you. However, when you approach your healthcare provider with your questions it is always good to approach them with humility and respect and not as if you have a chip on your shoulder.

Now here are suggested questions to ask your health care providers. This list is not meant to be exhaustive.

• How much time do you devote to aerobic exercise per week?

• What is your favorite snack food and how often do you eat that?

• Do you own a juicer? If so, how often in a week do you make and consume freshly squeezed (raw/unpasteurized) fruit or vegetable juices?

• Do you believe in fasting? If so, for how long would you fast for? When was the last time you fasted? What kind of fast was it (all water, all juice, or a combination)?

• How much fast food/take-out food do you consume in week?

• How much processed/packaged food do you eat on a daily basis?

• How many hours of sleep do you get per day?

• How many servings of raw/uncooked fruits and vegetables do you typically consume per day?

• How many animal products do you typically consume in a day?

• How often in a day do you consume white (processed) table salt and white (processed) sugar or products that contain them?

• What factors do you consider when you buy a packaged/processed food item?

• How many servings of organic/non-GMO produce do you consume in a week?

• Do you smoke cigars or cigarettes? If one or the other, how often do you smoke in a typical day? How long have you smoked?

• What area of your health would you like to see improved? What are active steps are you consistently taking to meet that goal?

Hopefully, these questions will give you ideas for questions you can come up with on your own. Let’s remember that no health care professional is perfect, so we shouldn’t put them on a pedestal. They are not gods, so it is reasonable that patients should hold the feet of their health-care providers to the fire and expect that what they are preaching in the office, hospital rooms and clinics should be being lived out in their private lives.

Simple ways to protect yourself from the harmful effects of radiation exposure from today's electronics

To say we live in a technological age may be an understatement. Much of our electronic gadgets today can be very helpful and convenient.

However there's a downside to all of this technology and it is this: our bodies are being exposed to harmful radiation at an alarming rate and unless we take measures TODAY to limit and/or reverse the damage our bodies are experiencing as a result of this especially in or near major cities in our nation, there could be very expensive consequences to face down the road.


Some possible health problems associated with exposure to electronic devices such as a microwave, cell phone, computer, Ipad, Kindle etc:

• headaches 
• fatigue
• dizziness, 
• eye problems
• hair loss
• muscle and heart impairment
• muscle tension
• increased stress
• sleep disruption
• energy loss
• poor concentration
• poor memory
• cancer to the brain and organs
• heart problems
• thyroid malfunction
• weakened immune function and more

What can be done?

Well, it's not possible to completely avoid electromagnetic radiation even if you moved to a secluded island or you threw out your LCD TV, computer and cell phone tomorrow. You are still exposed to radiation from electromagnetic radiation especially if you have to use electronic devices for work or school, from WiFi signals coming from your neighbor's house, your public library, contaminated environment from radiation leakage from a power plant, cell phone towers near your home, wifi on the trains and buses and many more possibilities.

We cannot completely avoid exposure to electromagnetic signals as it's all around us especially in major cities in our country and even possibly emanating from our technology in space beaming down to Earth. But here are some proactive things we can do.

Some steps we can take TODAY that can reverse its harmful effects on us:

1. avoid or limit your time spent at a library or restaurant that offers free wifi
2. get a anti-glare/radiation screen filter for your computer or cell phone
3. set aside a few minuets to watch this video:

In addition to the above steps, it is possibly even more important to give your body the best chance at preventing and/or reversing the effects of electromagnetic radiation is to frequently consume on a daily basis as much organic/non-GMO foods, vitamins and minerals like:

• Vitamin D3 (from 10-15 mins of natural sunlight depending on your skin tone)
• Beets
• Spirulina
• Chlorella
• Kelp
• Garlic
• Onions
• Apple Cider Vinegar
• Wheat Grass
• Apples (and other fruits rich in pectin)
• Lemons
• Parsley
• Sauerkraut
• Iodine/nascent iodine
• Calcium
• Magnesium
• Brewers Yeast
• Turmeric
• Noni
• Curcumin
• B-complex vitamins
• Melatonin
• Tulsi tea (from Holy Basil)
• Omega-3 fatty acids
• Glutathione
• Selenium
• Ginger
• Avocado
• Horseradish
• Kale
• Spinach
• Broccoli
• Cilantro
• Coconut oil (consume sparingly since it's high in fat)

Eating a nutrient rich diet like the Hallelujah Diet, getting more oxygen (through exercise), plenty of deep sleep (as a great amount of healing takes place while in deep REM sleep mode) and drinking enough uncontaminated water will give your body the best chance of obtaining many of the vital nutrients listed above to help you limit and reverse the effects of radiation exposure. On the contrary, neglecting your health and eating a diet high in processed food, meat, dairy, GMOs, refined sugars, and refined salts may leave your body more vulnerable to radiation and hinder your body's ability to heal/reverse the harmful effects.

PERSONAL TESTIMONIES OF HEALTH

Nascent iodine is the best supplement I have ever taken. From day 1, I noticed an increase in energy, and no longer need to nap during the day. I haven't slept this well in a long time, your body will thank you for finally getting a good night rest. My hair is thicker, and literally regrowing(slowly but be patient). My thyroid no longer sensitive, and I take 3 drops a day. I love the taste, but many feel it's gross and mix with juice. Be sure to get rid of any products in your house, with fluoride/chlorine. - Roscoman

I take the recommended 3 drops per day [of nascent iodine]. A very long list of ailments and conditions i have been complaining to doctors about for over 15 years are just GONE now. I take the iodine with a cap full of Raw apple cider vinegar and then lots of water. I loved this product so much, I bought a bottle for my daughter and grandchildren so they could try it. - Dawn

Is there poison on your plate disguised as food?

Would you knowingly eat rat poison or drink gasoline? Obviously not, because those things will harm and perhaps even kill you. Yet many people today are consuming the poisonous foods I list in this article without giving it a second thought. They are doing this because they've been successfully deceived by the media, the culture or family traditions into thinking that these ingredients don't require a second look.

Regardless of the reason, the "garbage in garbage out" principle is still true. The illnesses that people you know and love suffer from are just the result of their body being fed this garbage. Prevention is still the best medicine. Therefore, the way we achieve the health and healing that the body was designed for is to prevent this junk food garbage from going in our body in the first place; then we won't have to deal with the garbage coming out (in the form of disease, etc).

 

All food is NOT created equal

One of the popular yet toxic foods is caffeine. Coffee is fine, but the caffeine is the problem. Why is caffeine so toxic? Research shows that caffeine is one of the toxic chemicals produced by some plants as a defense mechanism against being eaten or disturbed. In fact, these chemicals (of which, caffeine is one) work to produce neurological damage in plant-eating animals. Yet, companies harvest and package this addictive chemical as an ingredient in various foods and sell it to the public. But if it can promote neurological damage in animals, just imagine what it's doing to humans over the long term. Herbal coffee (i.e. real coffee) like Ayurvedic Roast and herbal tea are healthier alternatives.

White table salt and white sugar are some more toxic ingredients. Consuming these can weaken the immune system's defense against a cold or flu as well as lead to type 2 diabetes, arthritis, obesity, emotional problems, tooth decay, dehydration, kidney failure, hypertension, heart disease, cancer, etc. If the ingredients label just says "salt," "sugar" or "evaporated cane juice," it's safe to assume that it's the processed kind. Now the body does need salt, but it needs the natural, unprocessed salt (still containing its trace minerals) which is pink in color. A source of healthy natural sugar (which the body also needs) comes from fruit and vegetables (preferably organic). Stevia, xylitol, raw coconut sugar or raw coconut nectar are healthier sugar substitutes as well.

Consuming processed grains such as white flour, white rice and packaged cereals can contribute to heart disease, abdominal fat, constipation and more. Look for sprouted and whole grains (quinoa, brown rice, etc). In addition, numerous studies like the China Study show that consumption of dairy and excessive animal products has contributed to physical problems like cancer, osteoporosis, heart disease, obesity and more.

Due to space constraints for this article, I can only mention one more category of poison foods: genetically modified (GM) foods. This is a broad topic, but suffice it to say that studies show a strong link associating the consumption of GM crops (e.g. corn, soy, alfalfa) and the animals that eat these crops with the rise of allergies, pregnancy complications, reduced fertility in humans and more. In addition, evidence shows that some GMOs produce their own built-in pesticides which have caused health problems in laboratory animals. Unless the food/ingredient is non-GMO-verified or organic, it may be a GM food.

Your responsibility

Though they should, ultimately it's not the job of the food industry to warn consumers of the dangers of toxic food/ingredients; it's your responsibility. Read the ingredients labels, and get informed so you can avoid the toxins that will put you on a path away from optimal health.

PERSONAL TESTIMONIES OF HEALING

As you read in the above article, there's a strong link between the onset of various allergies and the consumption of a bad diet consisting of poisonous "food" ingredients and GMOs. But here's a testimony from a woman who seen her allergies go away for good and you can to!

"I had all kinds of allergies that brought discomforts such as watery, puffy, and itchy eyes, drippy/runny nose, frequent sneezing and a stuffy head. For at least 30 years prior to adopting The Hallelujah Diet I had to take allergy shots weekly plus at least 2-3 antihistamine capsules daily. In addition, I frequently had pain in my neck/shoulder areas, lower back, knees and ankles. As a result of adopting The Hallelujah Diet nine years ago I no longer suffer from any allergies or respiratory related problems!" - Kim L

(FEATURED RECIPE)

Little Vegan Pizzas

Submitted by Jay, MA

Directions/process

1. For this recipe I used sprouted buns (Ezekiel 4:9 brand) but you can also use their sprouted English muffins also.

2. I topped the buns with these organic ingredients: plain tomato sauce, shredded broccoli, shredded carrots, leafy greens, peppers (diced),onions (diced), mushrooms. I used "non GMO project verified" vegan mozzarella cheese. You may use Dr. Cow's Tree Nut Cheese or you may make your own if you find a suitable recipe. I would avoid any vegan cheese that is not labeled "non GMO project verified", organic and I would avoid any cheese that contains titanium dioxide.

Note: The cheese I used for this recipe contained non gmo soy and some soy is OK to consume but I would avoid eating too much soy-based cheese. Here is a good video about how much soy would be too much:

3. I placed the vegan pizzas in my toaster oven (you may use a regular oven if you don't have a toaster oven) and toasted them at about 480º for 10 mins.

4. Allow to cool for about 3-5 minutes then eat.

ENJOY!!
