Body Ecology

I think my ongoing health issues is the Universe’s way of helping me earn my nutrition degree. In my spare time I read magazines like Townsend Letter and books like The Good Gut Guide. 

As many of you may know, I was hit Ford Explorer plowed into me as a pedestrian nine years ago. My recovery has been amazing, mostly due to my persistence and investigative skills. Lately, I’ve been feeling constant pain in my torso in the place where the impact broke my five ribs, and vertebrae. 

I’m determined to find my way back to ease and balance. The planet has what we need. What a sin to destroy it with hate and greed! Are humans destined to self-destruct? Well, I found the Cancel Clear Delete button to that program.

I looked at my own blood today under a microscope and a screen. I learned what candida (yeast overgrowth) and inflammation look like. Ugly invaders waging war underneath your skin. I learned that B12- deprived cells become oval instead of round. How badly do you want your health? After the impact I went into flight or flight and stayed there for so long that my body went on overdrive and got stuck in that groove. I’ve improved a lot but seemingly it doesn’t take much my auto-immune to find dis-order. In the past three months, I’ve been exposed to pesticides and mold and underwent three different rounds of anti-biotics for UTI’s (despite the overdose of D-Mannose). The result- a whacked-out body. Factor in that after four years of pure busy bee work, I allowed myself to occasionally sip wine and take drags of Nat Sherman natural Menthols mixed with Mary Jane. I admit it — I hate that I am so sensitive when I see the crap that other people shove into their temple. Like the woman who pedalled out of Hippocrates Institute for sugar. She needed a fix so bad she had a Kik-Kat and a Coca-Cola! The feeding frenzy that must have caused is on par with a heroin overdose. Sickly Sweet. So sweet its sick. Sick of Sweets? Kill that addiction. How bad do you want your health?
