Learning how to fight common diseases like colds and viruses is difficult, especially with so little wisdom still known. Yes, our society had majority "dumbded down" about simple healthcare over the last 2 to 3 generations and much wisdom has been lost. I remember a day when drs actually knew how to help s patient fight something without medicine. Today, drs are little more than pharmaceutical salesmen, matching a list of symptoms to medicine. It had been sad to watch the change.
There is huge advantage to relearning the old ways and wisdom, and with the internet and Facebook it is possible. Off in corners of the world are people that still know and are sharing wisdom that works. This wisdom strengthens there body with each attack instead of weakening it. In my case, I have gone from sick for a coupler weeks every month or two to sick for a day or two once out twice a year. Sickness isn't nearly as deep nor as long. Is wonderful!
But how tempting it is in the thick of pain and suffering to just reach for that pill! Instant relief! But... It's all an illusion. Pulls do not remove the problem as much as hide symptoms. The symptoms are your body fighting the disease. So the pills largely stop your body's defenses! Anti biotics are s little different, but even they damage your immune system with each use. Making you more and more susceptible to disease.
Do yourself a favor, opt out of the crazy downward spiral of health caused by modern medicine. For major things... That's different. But for common ailments turn to the wisdom of old where health was a process, not a pill.
I often wish I could sit down with my dad and ask him this or that, just hear his take on things. But, I cant. He is gone. All I have left are memories and a cassette tape or two. For you, I want to leave behind as much of me as I can, so that in those moments when you desperately think "I wonder what dad would say"... you can know. Wisdom is timeless. I am not but my love for you is timeless and lives on through the pages of this blog.
