Can You Live Without Health Insurance?

There was a discussion the other day about trying
to find health insurance that was reasonably priced.
Not only is hard to find insurance that doesn't cost
and arm and a leg...but other factors like being
able to afford the deductible, being qualified,
age, etc come into play.

Personally, I've never had health insurance, and
at 50 years of age not worried about ever getting
it. Here's why:

~ I don't think insurane companies will be there
when I really need them. I see so many people suffering from
all kinds of diseases and thinking insurance will
cover them. Guess what? When they do finally go
in to see the doc, they end up paying tons for
either meds or therapy. They'll get you one way
or another!

~ I don't worry because I make sure to take
care of myself first. Why would I end up paying
all that money on insurance, when I can pay
for fun and healthy therapies that prevent
disease?? Anyone for a massage?

~ I also like to enjoy life by not worrying
about day to day diseases. This is something
none of the health insurance companies will
ever cover! By eating well, exercising, doing
relaxing fun therapies every week, I feel
great! Plus, because I've learned the tools
of healing, I feel in control of my health.

Living longer can be done WITHOUT eating a perfect diet!

I am so tired of society's focus on having a
perfect diet which is 'supposed' to equal a perfect
body.

Don't get me wrong... I do believe eating well
is very important. And yes, I do believe food is
our medicine. However, there is sooooo much more
to wellbeing than just food.

I love the study that's been going on where they
ask centenarians (people who live to 100 years)
what their secret is to a long healthy life.

The first time I heard about these studies was
at an Anti-Aging conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Doctors from all over the world were there to
learn how to keep people looking gorgeous as
they aged. Med-spa's were popping up all over
the world to keep up the image of aging
gracefully.

But what surprised me the most was when
Ken Dychtwald,phd spoke at the conference
and showed that the most common reason that
people lived to a ripe old age of 100 was
because they had a great attitude, belief in
God, and living for what they believe in.
Eating specific foods to maintain health
was far down the list!

Surprise! Surprise!

When we are happy, having healthy relationships,
helping others, giving, these are qualities
that keep us healthy. Mental, emotional, and
spiritual balance are extremely important
for our wellbeing. I believe that without
feeling loved or loving others is much
more detrimental to our health than
what we eat.

Microwaves Cut Your Life Short

What???

You haven't heard how microwaves zap your food
so fast they actually KILL vital nutrients??

Russia and most of Eastern Europe outlawed
microwaves years ago. As usual, Americans are
a bit behind the times when it comes to their
health.

Here's what you need to know about microwave
cooking:
Microwaves are electromagnetic energy traveling
at the speed of light.
The radiation that microwaves produce changes
the molecular structure of food. Your body then
says."Hey what's this? This isn't food I can use!"
Then your body tries to get rid of it because it
looks at the radiated food as a toxin.

Microwaves have also been proven to change
the HDL/LDL values and ratios in your body.
Carcinogens (cancer causing) is formed in
almost all foods zapped by microwaves.

And the list goes on!

the dangers of microwave cooking...

Keep it simple folks - stir fry,steam, or
use your oven - but stay away from those
microwaves.

Let's Begin to Stir the Pot!

I Love to stir the pot!

Look...
Listen...
THINK!

We tend to take things at face value -
we look at tv and believe many things that
they tell us.

We listen to radio and figure we're caught
up on world events.

But do we stop and THINK??

A perfect example is about the Splenda
controversy - almost everyone I talk to
thinks its not so bad. It's just a simple
little sugar that might have a few chemicals,
but nothing real harmful.

Do you really think that this fake sugar
industry is out to make you feel healthy or
sick??? Where do they profit from the most,
your health or your illness?

Big pharma, AMA, insurance companies are all
out to make sure you do NOT get well!

I don't even put the blame on doctors anymore
since they're just as brainwashed as the media
makes us out to be! In fact, if they don't
prescribe a certain amount of drugs according
to their protocol, they get written up!

Back to splenda...
This simple little 'sweetener' has no calories
and is supposed to be a simple way to have your
sweets and eat it too. No way folks! There are
serious side effects with this stuff.

Just type it into google...
splenda and side effects.

A nice alternative is to use other sweeteners:
stevia
brown rice syrup
agave syrup
honey
molasses

Lots of choices here! The best is not to use
anything since sugar is an acid pH that will
not well in your body.

Let's start thinking about what the food
industry is trying to do to us and make
the RIGHT choices - foods that are hardly
processed at all. Staying happy by spending
at least an hour or two outside and watching
the clouds float by....sharing kind words
with those you love. It's a great way to start!
