Interview for HealthWise

In 1994, I was interviewed by Steven Horne of HealthWise, The Video Journal of Natural Healing. I spoke mainly about the health hazards that can be found in some of our personal care products and cleaning supplies, as well as how we can help our body deal with the exposure to these toxic chemicals and eliminate these hazards all together.

FINALLY the World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a statement linking cell phones and cancer risk! Even India had banned the use of cell phones by kids under 16 while we were selling Disney princess covers.  So how can we protect ourselves from the harmful radiation we're exposing ourselves to on a daily basis?

Finally! The Last Link in the Thyroid Puzzle!

I just read a report about the use of fluoride to treat hyperthyroidism beginning in the 1930's in Germany, where patients were intentionally and successfully overexposed to fluoride via bathing in and drinking fluoridated water to reduce thyroid activity. I have been amazed at the number of people I see who have been diagnosed with thyroid issues. Conversely, that means drinking fluoridated water will reduce thyroid function for everyone, which is a factor in hormone health and, critically, in calcium absorption.

Your Best Defense Against E. Coli

Lots of reports on the E. Coli outbreak in Europe have everybody concerned about it once again, and there seems to be a lot of demand for the government to "do" something more. Best bet is to take care of yourself so that your immune response recognizes and responds appropriately, but the first place that has to happen is in your stomach, where the acid will kill most bad bacteria.........if it's there.
