Temperature And Other Symptoms And What They Mean

The temperature of the fever is related to the actual germ that the body is fighting - the temp that it settles at is always the OPTIMAL temperature to kill the particular pathogen that is causing the infection, bacterial or otherwise.

In order to understand how childhood infection can actually be beneficial to a child’s health, it is essential to have a clear understanding of the symptoms of infection and their real purpose. Whenever a child develops measles, chicken pox, whooping cough or any of the other common childhood infections, he/she will experience several of the following symptoms.
 
**Fever – speeds up bodily elimination of toxic waste.
 
**No Appetite – when a fever is present, the digestive system shuts down thus removing the need and desire for food.
 
**Vomiting/Diarrhea – the body’s way of eliminating undigested foodstuff from the digestive tract.
 
**Tiredness/Lethargy – the body’s way of forcing a sick person to rest thus conserving its energy for the vital tasks of cleansing and repair.
 
**Glandular Swelling – the lymph glands filter the blood for toxic substances. Swelling of these glands greatly increases their filtering capacity.
 
**Skin Rash – represents an elimination of toxic waste, the skin being a major eliminative organ.
 
**Mucus Elimination – also an elimination of toxic waste. Mucus is made up of the body’s white blood cells which are the body’s garbage cans containing toxic residue. A good example is the runny nose.
 
**Inflammation – serves the same purpose as fever, to cleanse and repair damaged or poisoned tissue in the body.
 
In reality, the symptoms do not constitute the disease but the cure. In other words, measles is not the disease but the cure. Whooping cough is not the disease but the cure. Chickenpox is not the disease but the cure.
 
The real disease is toxemia out of which the symptoms arise.
 
This will explain the words of Hippocrates, who to this day is referred to as the Father of Medicine. Over 2000 years ago he wrote:
“Diseases are crises of purification, of toxic elimination. Symptoms are the natural defenses of the body. We call them diseases, but in fact they are the cure of diseases.”
 
By clearly understanding the true purpose of symptoms, the beneficial nature of childhood infections becomes readily apparent.

*These so-called infections serve to restore internal purity thereby promoting the health of the child. This will explain why natural health practitioners make no attempt to suppress these symptoms, instead they believe that the symptoms should be allowed to run their course so that complete detoxification is achieved.
 
On the other hand, should these symptoms be suppressed by medical drugs or other suppressive measures, then the body will be forced to retain within its own tissues the poisonous wastes that it is striving to remove. This can not only result in increased suffering and complications, but it can lay the foundations for chronic disease in later life. If you know of a child who has ever suffered complications or died from a childhood infection, then find out how the child was treated. For, in the opinion of many doctors, it is incorrect treatment, including suppressive drug therapy, that lies behind most complications and fatalities. In many cases, poor underlying health is also a factor.
 
Drugs never cure disease; they only change its form and location. . . . When drugs are introduced into the system, for a time they seem to have a beneficial effect. A change may take place, but the disease is not cured. It will manifest itself in some other form. . . . The disease which the drug was given to cure may disappear, but only to reappear in a new form, such as skin diseases, ulcers, painful, diseased joints, and sometimes in a more dangerous and deadly form. . . . Nature keeps struggling, and the patient suffers with different ailments, until there is a sudden breaking down in her efforts, and death follows.--H. to L., Chap. 3, p. 60.

Teflon

Approximately 60% of the cookware sold in the United States has some form of non-stick coating.

Many of us use non-stick Teflon cookware and don’t think twice about it. Sure it chips and scratches, but we never think that’s a big deal. However, there is growing evidence that this non-stick cookware can pose serious risks to your own health as well as the health of your loved ones.

WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF USING NON-STICK COOKWARE?

It is undeniable that Teflon cookware releases harmful chemicals into the air. This is proven by the fact that hundreds of pet canaries are killed or made seriously ill by the toxins released from non-stick cookware. The fumes released from non-stick cookware have been known to be highly toxic to birds, as many pet birds die from ‘Teflon toxicosis’ each year. This is caused when their lungs hemorrhage and fill with fluid, causing suffocation. The deaths usually occur during or immediately after using non-stick cookware, in normal scenarios. Much as these canaries warned miners of poor air quality, these same birds are warning us about the air quality as a result of cooking with Teflon. If these toxic fumes can kill a bird so quickly, this is not something you want yourself or your family to be breathing in.

Humans also are physically affected by Teflon fumes. Inhaling the toxins and chemicals released by heating a Teflon pan to just 400 degrees can cause many flu-like symptoms to occur. When humans are exposed to the fumes they can experience a condition known as ‘polymer fume fever’. This is characterized by flu-like symptoms, including headaches, chills, fever, coughing, and chest tightness. The side effects do not usually develop until a few hours after exposure to the gases, and therefore many people do not make a connection between the cause and effect. The long-term effects of such exposure has not been studied. It is possible that many cases that we assume are ‘normal-flu’ are actually caused by Teflon.  In addition, the pans naturally chip and flake with age, which releases even more contaminants into the food that is being prepared on this cookware. It is no surprise, then, that many ailing individuals have trace amounts of these harmful chemicals and toxins in their bloodstream regularly.

As well as health concerns, the manufacture of non-stick compounds including PFCs also pose a serious risk to the environment. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says PFCs present “persistence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity properties to an extraordinary degree.“

Cookware that is treated with Teflon (thus, making it non-stick) is made of a toxic combination of chemicals, such as PFOA, or perfluorooctanoic acid. When heated to high temperatures, which usually happens when you cook, this cookware begins to release these chemicals and carcinogens into the air. If heated high enough, Teflon cookware will actually release a dangerous chemical nerve agent referred to as PFIB.

Read about PFIB here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfluoroisobutene

BUT WHAT EXACTLY IS TEFLON?

Teflon is the trademarked name for the chemical Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). It is used in a variety of ways, because it is very non-reactive, due to the strength of the carbon-flourine bonds. It is also ‘hydrophobic’ meaning that it cannot be wet by water.

It is, therefore, a popular choice for cookware, as well as stain-resistant clothes (such as school uniforms) and stain-resistant carpets. PTFE is also used as a repellant of grease in food wrap, and containers including pizza boxes and microwave popcorn bags.

Consider using cast-iron or “green” non-stick cookware – such as ceramic titanium or porcelain enameled cast iron – that does not contain the chemical PTFE found in most non-stick products that emit carcinogens when heated.

Cast iron is cheap, lasts forever, and is completely natural. Also, stainless steel and glass are both great to cook with. I have been using all 3 of these for many years.

Choosing cookware without a slick coating may mean using a bit of elbow grease to get them clean but you won’t be ingesting and breathing those dangerous compounds.

Tea Tree Oil & Great Uses For It

1. Anti-bacterial, Antiseptic, Antioxidant

Tea tree oil has long been used to get rid of the bacteria that cause body odor and acne. Recent research indicates it is also effective against some fairly deadly bacteria such as methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus, better known as MRSA, which is currently plaguing our hospitals and medical facilities.

American researchers reported in 1999 that one of the ways tea tree oil helps is by activating white blood cells which are part of the immune system. French researchers investigating tea tree oil in 2006 stated, “Melaleuca alternifolia essential oil may not only act as an anti-inflammatory mediator through its antioxidant activity but may also efficiently protect the organism by reducing the proliferation of inflammatory cells without affecting their capacity to secrete anti-inflammatory cytokines.”

October 2016 research appearing in Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology by Chinese researchers found that tea tree oil was quite effective against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus (golden staph), and Candida albicans. It worked by compromising the cell membrane of these bacteria and fungi, ultimately leading to cell death.

One of the problems associated with the widespread use of antibiotics is that bacteria are developing resistance to these drugs. In 2015, Brazilian researchers found that tea tree oil was effective against Staphylococcus aureus which exhibits resistance to multiple antibiotic drugs.

Interestingly, Malaysian researchers published an article in 2013 in the journal Phytomedicine which investigated the relationship between various essential oils and antibiotics. The researchers found that none of the oils evaluated (including melaleuca alternifolia) caused an adverse reaction when taken with various antibiotic drugs. They found that the use of some of the essential oils (namely peppermint, cinnamon, and lavender) along with antibiotics provided a synergistic effect!

2. Anti-cancer

Joint Australian and American research reported in the Journal of Dermatological Science in 2012 found that tumor-bearing mice given a combination of melaleuca alternifolia and dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) activated an immune response and resulted in tumor cell death.

Two 2010 Australian studies with mice found that tea tree oil and its major active terpene component, terpinen-4-ol, had anti-tumor activity against two cancer cell lines: mesothelioma and melanoma. Researchers stated that tea tree oil “significantly inhibited the growth” of these two tumor cell types.

Chinese researchers in 2009 reported that tea tree oil had both antimicrobial and anti-cancer effects. They found that tea tree oil exhibited strong cytotoxicity (toxic to cancer cells) against human lung cancer cells, human breast cancer cells (MCF-7, which are hormone receptor-positive, infiltrating ductal carcinoma), and human prostate cancer cells (PC-3, which exhibit high potential for metastasis).

Italian research reported in 2004 investigated tea tree oil against human melanoma (M14 WT) cells, as well as Adriamycin-resistant melanoma cells. Tea tree oil-induced apoptosis (planned cell death, lacking in cancer cells) against both cell lines but especially the Adriamycin-resistant cells.

3. Anti-fungal, Anti-mold

Tea tree oil has been used for decades to help treat conditions like jock itch, nail fungus, and athlete’s foot because of its excellent anti-fungal properties.

In 2016 Italian researchers scrutinized several different essential oils including basil, mint, tea tree, lavender, winter savory, and oregano for their antifungal effects against Candida albicans. They discovered that essential oils inhibited both the growth and activity of Candida albicans more efficiently than a popular antifungal drug, clotrimazole.

A 2015 Australian study investigating fungal contamination in indoor environments looked at tea tree oil and four other agents, including industrial-strength disinfectants. Researchers noted that of the five substances tested, the tea tree oil exhibited the best inhibitory effect on the growth of the two fungi studied. Tea tree oil was just as effectively applied as a liquid or vapor.

Cancer patients often suffer from oral yeast infections due to the treatments they undergo. In 2006, UK researchers found that tea tree oil was effective against 301 different kinds of fungal infections found in the mouths of 199 patients with advanced cancer. Researchers stated that the tea tree oil was even effective against 41 fungi that were known to be resistant to traditional antifungal drugs.

Older research reported in 1992 by Australian researchers found that tea tree oil was quite effective in treating the symptoms of tinea pedia (athlete’s foot). They noted that tea tree oil was just as effective as tolnaftate, a popular anti-fungal agent.

4. Anti-inflammatory, Immune Stimulating

A plethora of research studies exist attesting to the anti-inflammatory properties of tea tree oil. In 2014, Brazilian researchers found that in addition to being an anti-inflammatory, tea tree oil also stimulated human macrophages, a type of white blood cell of the immune system involved in engulfing and destroying bacteria, cancer cells, microbes, etc.

5. Antiparasitic

A study reported in May 2016 by Brazilian researchers discovered that tea tree oil was effective against the eggs and larvae of Haemonchus contortus (aka the barber’s pole worm, a common parasite of ruminants).

A 2009 Italian study found that tea tree oil was effective against equine ringworm.

6. Anti-viral

Tea tree oil has long been used for easing the pain and itching of chickenpox and cold sores, both caused by the herpes simplex virus. Tea tree has also been found to be helpful against influenza; even the H1N1 virus strain.

7. Respiratory Complaints

Tea tree oil has a lengthy history of use for easing lung congestion and infections. Indeed, a Chinese animal study reported in 2016 found that a nanoemulsion of tea tree oil was effective against fungal and bacterial pneumonia due to its anti-microbial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory properties.

Tea tree oil is also very effective against the bacterium that causes Legionnaire’s Disease, which adversely affects the lungs much like pneumonia. Italian scientists reported in 2009 that Legionella pneumophila was “exquisitely sensitive” to tea tree oil. They further stated that tea tree oil should be investigated for use as an anti-Legionella disinfectant, and for control of water system contamination in places like spas, small water lines, and in respiratory medical devices.

8. Insect Repellent

Tea tree oil has been used by indigenous Australians for hundreds of years as an insect repellent, and also as an aid to heal insect bites. In addition, a study reported in 2015 by Brazilian researchers found that tea tree oil was effective against two fly species.

9. Dental Health

Although it is generally not recommended to take tea tree oil internally, it can be used for a variety of dental complaints. See “Precautions” below for more information about internal use.

In 2015, Indian researchers reviewed hundreds of studies on essential oils to investigate their therapeutic effect in a dentistry setting. They found that tea tree oil’s antibacterial and antifungal benefits made it a promising agent against oral pathogens.

Tea tree oil has also been found to be useful for periodontal disease. A 2016 Indian study found that a gel made from coenzyme Q10 and tea tree oil proved to be effective in the treatment of chronic periodontitis.

10. Skin Complaints
Psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, sores, wounds, sunburn, warts, acne, and insect bites… down through the centuries all of these conditions have been eased using tea tree oil. Modern science is catching on to the reasons why it’s so beneficial.

A 2013 review of various studies on tea tree oil by Iranian scientists discusses its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. They also stated that tea tree oil accelerated wound healing and exhibited anti-skin cancer activity.

The Toxic Truth About Tattoos

 

The tattoo trend started 20 years ago in America and Europe, and it has become a worldwide obsession. Thankfully, I’ve never gotten a tattoo and after reading this study I am happy I never did. If you are thinking about getting a tattoo, you may not even be aware that there are many health dangers to receiving a tattoo.

Tattoo inks contain a myriad of heavy metals. Red tattoo inks often contain mercury, and tattoos pierce the skin leaving the ink permanently embedded. FDA has not approved any tattoo pigments for injection into the skin. Tattoo parlors are regulated by the state and city, but the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not require manufacturers to release their ink’s ingredients; doing so could supposedly give away trade secrets. The lack of regulation is slightly unnerving considering that 36 percent of people ages 18-25 have tattoos, as do 40 percent of those 26-40 years old. That means approximately 45 million Americans have been inked, and one-third of those did so because it makes them feel “sexy.”

Many pigments used in tattoo inks are industrial-grade colors suitable for printer ink or automobile paint. The FDA’s website warns about tattoo ink possibly causing infections, allergic reactions, keloids (formation of a scar), granulomas (inflammation) and potential complications while receiving MRI’s.

The carrier solution used in tattoo inks contains harmful substances such as denatured alcohols, methanol, antifreeze, detergents, formaldehyde, and toxic aldehydes.

What’s more, the review found eight cases of malignant melanoma on the site of the tattoo. “Tattoo inks may contain carcinogens, but it’s unclear whether the reported cases of skin cancer are associated with tattoos or occurred coincidentally,” says Dr. Bäumler, whose study noted that this number is few in comparison to the many people who have tattoos. (In fact, 24% of the population is inked.)

An alarming research study recently published by Dr. Bob Haley and Dr. Paul Fischer at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas uncovered that the “innocent” commercial tattoo may be the number one distributor of hepatitis C. The study was published in the journal Medicine (Haley RW, Fischer RP, Commercial tattooing as a potentially source of hepatitis C infection, Medicine, March 2000;80:134-151).

Dr. Haley, a preventative medicine specialist and a former Center for Disease Control (CDC) infection control official, is exceptionally knowledgeable to prepare the study. Dr. Haley concludes, “We found that commercially acquired tattoos accounted for more than twice as many hepatitis C infections as injection-drug use. This means it may have been the largest single contributor to the nationwide epidemic of this form of hepatitis.”

MORE TATTOO INFO

Our bodies are to be the temple of the Holy Ghost, and we are not to treat them as we please. If we defile them, we will be naturally destroyed (1 Corinthians 3:16-17) (one of the ways we may defile our bodies is by what we eat and drink) (Daniel 1:8). We were bought with the blood of Jesus, therefore, our bodies are not our own, meaning we can't treat them any way we wish. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

As a result, we are not to tattoo our bodies (Leviticus 19:28) (if we have done this, just ask for forgiveness, but don't do it anymore (1 John 1:9) (Tattooing causes medical conditions as well. Were you aware that a large percent of those who get tattooed come down with Hepatitis C. HOW YOU MAY ASK? Because even though they change the needles, the ink is contaminated. It's like a back wash after doing a tattoo...the blood from the ink goes through the needle and some can get mixed into the ink inside the gun. A lot of people are unaware of this.

You see, you cannot separate God from true health & healing. It's true. God is the designer of our bodies. (Psalms 139:13-14/Hebrews 10:5 "a body has thou prepared me") And He knows what is best for us.

God is the manufacturer of every human body. And his manufacture's guide is the Bible, and mankind is not to live without it (Matthew 4:4). If they do, they will truly reap their own ways. (Proverbs 14:12; Galatians 6:7)

We are told that the Bible brings healing (Matthew 8:16) (I know of deadly cases that walked out of hospitals 100% healed after being read the Bible).

All throughout the Bible it tells us how to have great health. God wants us to have health in BODY, SOUL, & SPIRIT (1 Thessalonians 5:23) And according to WHO (World Health organization, this is what TRUE HEALTH IS) ...You see, most people are sick or dying from a sickness...And they that be whole need not a physician (Matthew 9:12) as Jesus tells us.

OTHER WAYS TO CAUSE US NOT TO BE WHOLE:
Some people feel that they can mark up the body with tattoos any way they want & pierce the body a little here and a little there.  But were you aware that if you pierce your body, your ear, navel, or anywhere for that matter, that it takes 1 yr. before you can give blood?  You have just poisoned the body.

The world knows that you have poisoned the body. The American Red Cross won't even take your blood. Why not? Because scientific research shows that when you put this ink on your body, it goes into the bloodstream & poisons the blood.  As a matter of fact, it is said, that in today's day, approximately 80% of those who get tattoos wind up getting Hepatitis C -- the main reason is not the needle, because they change the needle due to certain health laws in each city, but the backed up ink in the gun is used over & over & all it takes is one infected person with hepatitis c to cause the problem. 

THE BIBLE SAYS:

“Know ye not that your bodies are the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own. For ye a are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit which are God’s (1 Corinthians 3:16-17)... WE ARE NOT AT LIBERTY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF GOD'S BODY.  God's people should not tattoo and pierce their bodies.  

NOW LET’S LOOK AT THE SIMPLICITY IN CLOTHING WORN BY GOD’S TRUE CHURCH REPRESENTED BY THE WOMAN IN CHAPTER 12

Rev 12:1 – And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

Note: You don’t see jewels, make-up, complex apparel, or tattoos on her forehead. (Rev 17:5).

Tampon Info

Many of today's feminine hygiene products are made primarily from rayon, viscose, and cellulose wood fluff pulp…not cotton — let alone organic cotton. Rayon and viscose present a potential danger in part because of their highly absorbent fibers. When used in tampons, these fibers can stick to your vaginal wall, and when you remove the tampon, the loosened fibers stay behind inside your body, thereby raising your risk of TSS.

Fortunately, there are safer alternatives, and since the FDA regulates tampon absorbency, all tampons on the market must meet the same absorption guidelines. According to Dr. Philip Tierno, a Clinical Professor of Microbiology and Pathology at NYU Medical Centre, 100 percent cotton tampons "consistently test under detectable levels for TSS toxins." Based on her own research, Andrea recommends the following brands of tampons and sanitary pads listed below. 

SAFER ALTERNATIVES

• Natracare
• Diva Cup
• Seventh Generation Chlorine Free Organic Cotton Tampons
• Glad Rags Organic Pads
• 100% Organic Cotton Tampons

Tahini

WHAT IS TAHINI?

Tahini is a ground sesame seed paste, similar to peanut butter. It is a creamy, oily, and smooth nut butter rich in calcium. Look for tahini in a glass jar or a can, and sometimes in a powdered, dehydrated form in health food stores, or in the ethnic foods aisle of your regular grocery store. You can also find fresh tahini in the refrigerator section next to the hummus in larger well-stocked grocery stores.

NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION

Tahini is high in iron, an excellent source of copper, manganese and the amino acid methionine. Tahini is a source of the healthy fatty acids omega-3 and omega-6.

Be sure to buy your Tahini in a jar with natural oil separation visible at the top.

Tahini made from raw sesame seeds is lower in fat than tahini made from roasted seeds.

Tahini's relatively high levels of calcium and protein make it a useful addition to vegetarian and vegan diets, as well as any diet, when eaten in its unroasted form. Compared to peanut butter, tahini has higher levels of fiber and calcium and lower levels of sugar and saturated fats.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF TAHINI:

1. It’s rich in minerals such as phosphorus, lecithin, magnesium, potassium and iron.
2. It's a good source of Methionine, which aids in liver detoxification.
3. It’s one of the best sources of calcium out there.
4. It’s high in vitamin E and vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5 and B15.
5. Helps to promote healthy cell growth.
6. Prevent anemia.
7. Helps to maintain healthy skin and muscle tone.
8. It has 20% complete protein, making it a higher protein source than most nuts.
9. It's easy for your body to digest because of its high alkaline mineral content, which is great for assisting in weight loss.
10. It is high in unsaturated fat (good fat!)
