These days there’s no reason for anyone to be sick. Many readers who are not on as many mailing lists as I am may not be aware of all the latest advances in medicine, especially the latest developments in non-conventional or alternative medicine. According to the literature I’ve received, the results from some of these cures are nothing short of miraculous. There is no longer an excuse for anyone to suffer from any type of physical or mental ailment.
You can take your choice of any one of a number of therapies. You can use vitamins and herbs, magnetism, acupuncture, radio waves, juices, sound, light, color, aromatherapy, or thinking healthy. These are just some of the presently known alternatives to conventional medicine. New ones are being discovered every day. As a service to its readers, this column will describe some of these new ways for you to stay in good health.
Vitamins have been with us for years. Their value in maintaining good health has been proven so conclusively that even the medical profession is beginning to accept them. The latest discovery in food supplements is the use of herbs which primitive populations and the Chinese have known about for thousands of years. They’re catching on so well that people are starting to give their children names like Echinacea, Ephedra, Digitalis, Eritrea, Liberia, and Valerian. Herbs can cure depression, anxiety, digestive irregularity, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, the common cold, and will improve your sex life. For specific details on which herbs to use and how to use them, buy any book on herbal cures and look at pages 112, 174, 203 and 321.
One of the fundamental physical forces is advocated by the proponents of magnetic field therapy. The magnetic field penetrates the whole body and can treat every organ without chemical side effects. Small powerful magnets are placed on selected parts of the body to cure various dysfunctions. The magnets are said to alter the orientation of the chromosomes within the body’s cells, and this shift in the position of the chromosomes effects the cures. Magnets are supposed to be able to cure depression, anxiety, digestive irregularity, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, the common cold, and will improve your sex life. People wearing magnets should be careful not to go too close to refrigerators.
A technique that has been used for 5,000 years in China and has recently come into widespread use in other countries is acupuncture. Every time the patient complains, you stick him with a needle, and pretty soon he stops complaining. Acupuncture is said to be able to cure depression, anxiety, digestive irregularity, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, the common cold, and will improve your sex life.
Every health authority agrees that a proper diet should contain plenty of raw fruits and vegetables to maintain good health. One of the best ways of digesting these important foods is to juice them and drink the juice. In addition to making their healthful ingredients easier to digest, drinking the juice saves you all the trouble of having to eat salads and raw fruits. Drinking plenty of raw vegetable and fruit juice is said to be able to cure depression, anxiety, digestive irregularity, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, the common cold, and will improve your sex life.
Odors and scents are an important part of our lives, and have a much greater effect on the body’s functioning than most people realize. The use of various aromatic oils such as cloves, thyme, chamomile and many others has been found to have beneficial medical effects. Aromatherapy as a formal discipline dates back to the early part of this century. It is said to be able to cure depression, anxiety, digestive irregularity, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, the common cold, and will improve your sex life.
One of the major medical advances of recent times is the discovery of the placebo. It is one of the most widely tested of all medications, has been tested for effectiveness against all other medicines and medical procedures, and has been shown to have no harmful effects or interactions with any other medication you may be taking. The placebo has been shown to cure depression, anxiety, digestive irregularity, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, the common cold, and will improve your sex life.
With all the advances being made in traditional and alternative medicine, the time will soon come when people will be in perfect health when they die
