Health Science Institute - Baltimore The HSI newsletter is one of the best. Produced by the Agora company in Baltimore it's part of a large stable of newsletters devoted to health and financial success. I've been there and met them. They're on the ball. They also publish a wide range of books - many worth buying.
Tom is a naturopath in Yonkers. He's a nice bloke. I nearly got to see him when I was in the Empire State. He's got as neat little search mechanism on his website. Just key in your complaint and see what remedies come up. There is an epidemic of gall bladder mutilation in our community, particularly amongst middle-aged women. Before you get your gall bladder ripped out take a look at Tom's non-surgical suggestion for ridding your system of gall stones and flushing our your liver.
Kevin Trudeau's site will provide you with information about non-drug, non-surgical and all-natural cures that drug companies and government agencies DO NOT want you to know about. I bought his book 'Natural Cures, What They Don't Want You to Know' and recommend it to any one who's tired of reading about new health break-throughs based on research funded by drug companies and pumped into the media by drug company hacks.
If you get headaches, feel tired all the time, have elevated blood pressure and find it easy to stack on fat, go without flour (no bread, biscuits, pasta or cake) for a week and see what happens. You could get a very big surprise indeed. He gives the other white powder and the hot and cold brown syrups a caning as well.
'Don't go to doctors for things doctors can't fix.' (I got that from Dr Andrew Weil.) That takes in about 80% of the things people go to doctors for. High blood pressure isn't caused by a lack of Avpro, reflux isn't caused by a lack of Mylantin, elevated cholesterol isn't caused by a lack of Lipitor, depression is not caused by a lack of Zoloft any more than a crook back is caused by a lack of Celebrex or piles by a lack of Anusol. Wrong treatment.
You'll save yourself an absolute poultice if you start to rely on treatments that stimulate the body's own wonderful recuperative powers.
Like the others on this page this is a good site. It gives you simple suggestions for fixing up common complaints. It's a bit edgy, but that's what makes it interesting reading.
Of course, nothing can take the place of regular vigorous physical activity, a good strength and flexibility program, a diet from the top of the Hourglass, meditation and job you love doing so much you'd do it for nothing, but which you did so well you're paid handsomely. (You can send me $48 for that advice!)
After I visited the Egoscue clinic in San Diego and started doing the exercises they recommended, my back got better. If you've got a crook back you'd be a mug not to get a copy of Pete Egoscue's book Pain Free. You can get it from Back Pain Books.
It's a big ask expecting to stay healthy without keeping yourself fit. It's an even bigger ask expecting to get better by having someone do something to you; sooner or later you have to do something to yourself.
