“Mad” in America~Life on Benzos and More ~ A Healing Journey (Part III)   Please follow my posts as I continue on with my healing journey. If you care, please share to help raise awareness of the potential dangers of benzodiazepines and more. In 2012 the nightmare really began. My mother would often call me saying she hadn’t slept, her hands were shaking, her heart was racing and she needed to go to the ER.  This happened mostly on Sunday mornings. I would later learn that, since my father’s passing, this was the worst day of the week for her. On Sundays she and my father would go to church, then out for breakfast and hit the dollar stores. Now Sundays were a reminder of her days without the love of her life.

Now Sundays were a reminder of her days without the love of her life. I would bring my mother to the ER, where tests would reveal no physical problems. So, a script for anxiety. On several occasions I brought my sister with us. She was also not feeling well, and I would run from one ER cubical to the other, checking on each of them in turn. My sister has a history of prescription drug dependence, having suffered migraines all her life. After years of drugs, she almost died. In-patient drug withdrawal in the 1990’s proved to be successful, but when you visit the ER with discomfort, you’re usually prescribed Oxyocodone like it’s candy, so the cycle began again. I called my mother every morning, just to make sure she was ok. As time passed she stopped allowing me to ask any “health” questions,

Several trips to the Emergency Department revealed that there was nothing physically wrong with her. Blood looks good, EKG fine, stress test perfect. So, if there wasn’t a physical diagnosis, it must be mental. But of course. Now we can treat the symptoms with chemicals. The journey began, and my mother learned quickly that a visit to the ER and the hospital would give her the cocktail she needed to get immediate relief, and, with that, another prescription. A trip to the primary care physician was a trip to just another prescription writer My mother’s primary care physician told me he would not give her the information I had brought to his office regarding PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), which I believe is  the root cause of her body’s screams for help. The primary care decided to write her a prescription to help her sleep. When that didn’t work, he tried another and another, and added an anti-depressant along with anti-anxiety drugs. The list included: xanax, dulera, trazodone, lorazepam (ativan), and diazepam (valium). This on top of the blood pressure and cholesterol drugs she was already taking, not to mention antibiotics for recurring infections. I learned that these “innocent” drugs, given to so many people, damage the brain just like the use of benzodiazepines. Yes, you read that right. No wonder we are seeing such an increase in drug induced dementia.

By Steve Barwick Shills for the big drug companies love to falsely claim that colloidal silver usage is rife with serious side effects and thus should be avoided at all costs. Below, we compare the known side effects of colloidal silver with the known side effects of four of the most popular prescription antibiotic drugs*. You decide, with the help of your doctor or experienced natural health care practitioner, which of these substances need to be “avoided at all costs” and which represent the safer alternative. Most folks know that colloidal silver is a completely natural mineral supplement that’s used one of two ways by tens of millions of people worldwide: 1.) Occasional usage: Colloidal silver is used on an occasional basis as a nutritional adjunct to help the body fight off active infections — i.e., colds, flu, sore throat, sinus infections, eye infections, earache and more. 2.) Daily usage: Some people even use colloidal silver on a regular daily basis, in small amounts, to help prevent infections from taking place, particularly during cold and flu season, or to help keep the underlying infections behind certain chronic degenerative disease in check. But is there any truth to the shrill cries from critics that colloidal silver is “rife with serious side effects,” and therefore should never be used? Known Side Effects of Colloidal Silver Truth be told, like the vast majority of mineral supplements, colloidal silver is relatively side-effect free. When researchers from the Dartmouth University Toxic Metals Research Program studied the effects of silver intake in humans, they wrote: “Trace amounts of silver are in the bodies of all humans and animals.

Aluminum & Corn In Your Christmas Cookies?

If you are using commercial baking powder in your recipe, they might be! That’s crazy, right? Well, we are all conditioned to believe products like baking powder are clean, but baking powder falls under the CRAP list (Commercially Reproduced Artificial Products). Before baking powder there was good old Cream of Tartar. Combined with Baking Soda,  Cream of Tartar will give you the rise you are looking for without the added aluminum and corn starch, which is usually added to the baking powder so it doesn’t clump….totally gross! Did you know that more people have an adverse reaction to corn than other grains? It’s high on the allergic reaction list, but isn’t ever spoken about. Why? High profits in the human and animal food industry. Corn is one of the top 3 crops which are genetically modified, along with soy and canola. GMO’s are not regulated (a subject for another day). Act Natural Health & Wellness, LLC has a ZERO tolerance for genetically modified ingredients and products. Where does the aluminum come from? Double acting baking powders, which react on the counter and in the oven, contain aluminum in the form of sodium aluminum sulfate or sodium aluminum phosphate. Slow acting baking powders have the same problem, unless the acid salt used is sodium acid pyrophosphate. Fast acting, low temperature baking powders contain only monocalcium phosphate (cream of tartar), potassium bicarbonate or sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and starch. They are typically the choice of health conscious bakers and consumers of  baked goods, trying to avoid aluminum (and corn) in all its forms. What’s the solution? DYI Baking Powder! You can use this recipe to replace commercial baking powder in all of your recipes. We carry Cream of Tarter in individual bottles and in bulk. Baking Powder Recipeit only takes a minute! 1 tsp. baking soda2 tsp cream of tartar Mix the baking soda and cream of tartar in a small glass bowl. This makes 1 Tablespoon of homemade baking powder. If your recipe includes yogurt, kefir, buttermilk, lemon juice or vinegar, there

You can’t make it stop, you can’t catch your breath, your eyes begin to water, you sweat, you think you are going to heave-and you do. All that mucous. Yuck! You are fine sitting up, but try to lay down and, no way! The monster rears its ugly head, making it impossible for you to sleep. Your ribs hurt and your sciatica is acting up. You feel like you have been hit by a truck. So what can you do to get some relief? First, be sure to drink plenty of water, as water will help to dilute the mucous. Include electrolyte beverages like lemonade and coconut water to help keep you hydrated (avoid the big box electrolyte drinks with added colors and flavors). Aromatherapy, homeopathy, and honey can help. Aromatherapy – An aromatherapy chest rub can relieve the cough and help you breathe. The most commonly used commercial vapor rubs contain some ingredients that are toxic, such as turpentine, which is toxic to young children in as little as 3 tsp, and petrolatum, a product of crude oil that coats the skin like plastic wrap and in turn blocks the skin’s natural function of releasing toxins from the body. Homeopathy – (like cures like) Available in pellets and liquid to help wake up the immune system to self-heal. Homeopathy has been around for hundreds of years. This system is still used today by the English Royal Family. Who doesn’t want to feel like a queen? Honey – Honey, especially Manuka with UMF (Unique Manuka Factor) can be used (12 months or older*) to help alleviate a cough. The honey will soothe and coat the throat. Using a UMF quality manuka honey is even
