There was an article posted regarding an actor's bad experience with his health. By his doctor it was linked to overconsumtpion of fish and Chinese medicine. I will not comment on this diagnosis because I do not have the right to do so nor do I have all of the facts. However, should this diagnosis be correct, this does not mean that all Chinese medicine is contaminated. And, if compared to western medications, well. we should probably not go there.

Friends often ask me why I don't do more testing on my own body to monitor things such as precancerous conditions. My feelings on this are very controversial to most, I am certain. But, I do feel that health is based upon homeodynamics. It is always changing. And, many of us ertainy have cancerous cells growing in our bodies in a given period and then at another point those cells have disappeared. This seems it would be true as long as a person is focused upon monitoring his or her health, eating in a well balanced way and lving a happy lifestyle.

I was speaking to someone today who said she realizes how much her personality has changed since she has been burdened with her illness. Whereas she used to be outgoing and up, she had becme withdrawn and down. As she is getting better she is starting to remember who she used to be and has become determined to bring that old self back to life! In fact, she is coming back to life because that is what made her remember! It is a good reminder to me and to all of you who have latered your way of being due to illness. Try to find your way back to yourself as you improve. You are in there!

I just wanted to post a note to make sure everyone knows that I do not read the foum discussions. Someone asked me if I had seen a post that looked like it was directed towards me, but, I did not bc I dont read them. I want to allow privacy for others to discuss freely. I have my technical person who checks for appropriatness only, i.e vulgarity, etc... So, I am sorry if anyone posted and was waiting for a response from me. I do answer any comments to my posts however, so feel free to respond to me there!

Sugar causes many problems in the body because of the underlying imbalances that it creates. Those imbalances lead to inflammation all over the body. That inflammation leads to many kinds of chronic illnesses. A high sugar diet coupled with other kinds of things such as overuse of various kinds of medications and other dietary practices is a great recipe for disease including IC. Why are we seeing so much more chronic illnees these days? Because of all of these things that we think of, as a society, as common place and benign.

There are lots of ways to prevent pregnancy besides chemicals like birth control pills. We are made to believe that they are so benign , when, in fact, they can cause massive imbalance in the body, that, in some cases, may take years to repair. Here is a great article sent by a patient who I am treating who said that she experienced every one of these symptoms because of the pill: http://abcnews.go.com/Health/WomensHealth/story?id=6484342&page=1

No, not really. But, if you are even thinking about cheating over the holidays, let me suggest baking something yourself. Pamela's pancake and baking mix as a base for cookies, scones, or cakes is a great base. Then, you can add in agave 1:1 ratio instead of sugar. IF you want chocolate you can add in Wax Orchard's chocolate sauce or Ultimate Raw Chocolate to taste or you can use other flavors like organic pumkin in a can. Mising the pumkin in with the chocolate is outstanding. this makes a great cake. Pumkin is strong though for those early in treatment.

Someone asked me the other day, and I realize I get many people who ask the same thing--how important is it to use BOMASENSE products? I developed these products out of total desperation and aggravation with what things were available on the market. Aside from the typical non healthfood store products loaded with laural sulphate and its carcinogenic friends, the healthfood store alternatives can be just as bad. This is not because they are loaded with toxic ingredients, although many still are. Just because they are in a healthfood store does not mean they are all pure.

I have rec'd several of the same question and wanted to post this to be clear. For steaming veggies, tap water is fine. But, if you are making tea or soup, please use bottled water. The issues with the water do not get purified by boiling as far as I can tell. I know that some of you may feel it is a big committment and expense to use bottled water, but, in my experience it can make an immense difference.

Doubt sees the obstacles, faith sees the way
Doubt sees the dark of night, faith sees the day
Doubt dares to take a step, faith soars on high,
Doubt asks the question "who believes" and faith answers "I .
