Cystitis, depression, eating disorders, numbness and tingling, white coating on the tongue, increased body hair, easily bruised, memory loss, frequent headaches, PMS, hives, jock itch, rectal itch, athlete’s foot, impotence, fungus growths on the cuticles, finger- and toenails,  sensitivity to molds, perfumes and cigarette smoke, and blurred vision.</p>

<p>Candida albicans is a bacteria/fungus that occurs naturally in the human body; the problem comes when the Candida gets out of control.</p>
<p>Normally, the “good” bacteria in the gut- what we call probiotics &#8211; like acidophilus, keeps fungus, such as Candida, and “bad” bacteria (<em>e Coli</em>), at a static level. </p>
<p>When our “good” bacteria is destroyed through use of antibiotics &#8211; including the antibiotics used in livestock, dairy, and egg production of the foods we eat &#8211; high sugar intake, excessive alcohol or drug use (especially marijuana, for some reason), the bad guys are allowed to proliferate, and wreak havoc on our system.</p>
<p>The Candida fungus begins to dominate, actually enlarging the microscopic openings in the small intestine that we use to absorb nutrients into the bloodstream.</p>
<p>Because these openings have become larger than designed, food particles that are not yet fully digested are allowed through.</p>
<p>Then, the immune system, not “recognizing” the large particles, create antibodies to these food particles, initiating a cascading and increasingly worsening cycle of food allergies, developing into other allergies: hay fever, dust, dander, etc.</p>
<p>Candida now moves from its natural habitat in the gut to the bloodstream, where it can turn into a <a target="new" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/natural-candida-cure">systemic infection</a>. Candida symptoms of infection in the skin, nails, and vaginal and rectal areas are very annoying <em>to say the least!</em></p>
<p>But even worse, the wastes from this fungus are toxic to your body, and will affect practically every system, directly or indirectly. They can, after years of uncontrolled systemic overgrowth, even cause mental illness (insanity).</p>
<p>Most fungal-based cancers are associated with Candida symptoms. This DOES NOT mean you WILL develop cancer from a Candida infection, only that it’s important to keep it under control. And, if you HAVE a fungal-based cancer, it will be necessary to take care of the Candida symptoms in the course of cancer treatment.</p>
<p>You may have Candida symptoms, and not have a Candida infection. You can get a simple test at your <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/find-affordable-healthcare">doctor&#8217;s office</a>, or have a <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/wellness-plan"> personalized wellness plan</a> worked up for you.</p>
<p>Or if you&#8217;re more of a do-it-yourselfer, <em>you need to get this book</em> &#8211; <a onmouseover="window.status='Get relief now'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/yeastnomore" target="_new">Yeast Infections No More</a>. If you are suffering the intense itching, burning, pain and discomfort of Candida symptoms, you <em>can</em> cure yeast infection naturally&#8230;<em><strong>or your money back!</strong></em><strong> </strong></p>
<p>This eBook gives detailed descriptions and explanations of candida symptoms, natural home remedies for yeast infection, and side effects of anti-fungal medications. I can attest that these natural methods work, and usually very quickly.</p>
<p>Because dead Candida is not a whole lot more fun than <em>live</em> Candida, I highly recommend also doing a <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/2a-cleanse" target="new">colon cleanse</a> at the same time you&#8217;re killing off fungus. The idea is to get it out of your body as soon as possible; it makes life much more pleasant. <img src='http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Blood flukes are teensy flat worms that sap the vitality of your blood cells, and your venous system in general. They can be at the root of the problem if you feel tired most of the time, even without strenuous activity.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>If your white blood cell count is low, you may want to be tested for Leukemia. If your white count is low, and your red blood cell count is also low, suspect blood flukes.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>The metabolic wastes that blood flukes leave (for YOU to clean up) cause your blood corpuscles to &#8220;stick&#8221; together. Enough of these occurrences, and you&#8217;ve got a blood clot to deal with. Blood clots come with their own host of problems, including stroke and heart attack.</p>

<p>Blood flukes can be associated with weak veins, especially spider veins and varicose veins in the legs; also with high blood pressure or stroke, because of the <a onmouseover="window.status='Physical congestion as a cause of disease'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness/congestion-physical">blood congestion</a> they can cause.</p>
<p>These blood parasites can also &#8220;flip&#8221; your sleep cycles, making you wake up several times in the night, so you feel sleepy during the day.</p>
<p>If you have an infection of this sort for long enough, your bone marrow can eventually be affected.</p>
<p>Blood flukes also rob amino acids, especially arginine &#8211; one of the essential aminos we can&#8217;t manufacture ourselves &#8211; causing a protein imbalance.</p>
<h2>Home Remedy for Blood Flukes</h2>
<p>With any blood parasite, including blood flukes, mix equal parts:</p>
<li>Oil of Sassafras</li>
<li>Oil of Wintergreen</li>
<li>Oil of Spruce</li>
<p>Apply several drops of this concoction to the soles of your feet 3 times daily.</p>
<p><strong>DO NOT TAKE THIS MIXTURE INTERNALLY.</strong></p>

Humans usually become infected with flukes from eating raw or undercooked seafood, infected vegetation), or drinking or wading in infested water.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Just imagine with me these effects of smoking:</strong></p>
<p>When a smoker inhales a puff of cigarette smoke, the large surface area of the lungs allows nicotine to pass into the blood stream almost immediately.</p>
<p>It is this nicotine &#8220;hit&#8221; that smokers crave, but there is a lot more to smoke than just nicotine.  In fact, there are more than 4000 chemical substances that make up cigarette smoke and many of them are toxic.</p>
<p>As these toxins make their way through your body via the bloodstream, they deposit little &#8220;souvenirs&#8221; here and there. Much of the poison stays in the lungs &#8211; its point of entry &#8211; but that old blood highway is very effective transport.</p>
<p>Because nicotine is a &#8220;close cousin&#8221; to <a onmouseover="window.status='Vitamin B3 - Niacin'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/niacin.html">niacin</a> (a necessary nutrient), it is able to take up the niacin receptors on the cell walls. And because it is poisonous, it can start a cascade of symptoms.</p>
<p>[<em>Tobacco tea was once listed as a very effective organic pesticide, but it proved so dangerous to farm workers that its use was outlawed</em>]</p>
<p><img src="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/images/effects-of-smoking.jpg" border="0" alt="The effects of smoking is bad news for your health" width="197" height="229" align="Right" /></p>
<p>Cigarette smoke is composed of 43 known carcinogenic substances (including nicotine), and more than 400 other toxins that can also be found in wood varnish, nail polish remover, and rat poison.</p>
<p>All of these substances accumulate in the body and can cause serious problems to the heart and lungs.</p>
<p>There are many ways to take tobacco.  You can chew it, inhale it through the nose, and smoke it in the form of cigars, cigarettes, or a pipe. It&#8217;s dangerous no matter how it&#8217;s taken, but because smoking is the most popular way to consume tobacco, it has also received the greatest attention from the medical field and the media.</p>
<p><strong>Cancer is the most common disease associated with effects of smoking.</strong> Smoking is the cause of 90% of lung cancer cases and is related to 30% of all cancer fatalities.  Other smoking-related cancers include cancers of the mouth, pancreas, urinary bladder, kidney, prostate, stomach, esophagus, and larynx.</p>
<p>Besides cancer, effects of smoking also encompasses several other diseases of the lungs.  Emphysema and bronchitis can be fatal and 75% of all deaths from these diseases are linked to smoking.</p>
<p>Smokers have shorter lives than non-smokers.  On average, the effects of smoking take 15 years off your life span, due to the high rate of exposure to toxic substances which are found in cigarette smoke.</p>
<p>The effects of smoking lowers <a onmouseover="window.status='Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C)'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/vitamin-c-ascorbic-acid.html">Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C)</a> levels in your blood, and artery wall integrity is degraded. So, smoking can be an indirect cause of cholesterol build-up in the cardiovascular system.</p>
<p>Smokers also put others at risk: the <a target="_blank" onclick="window.open('http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/cgi-bin/counter.pl?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2FTOBACCO%2Fresearch_data%2Fyouth%2Fstspta5.htm&amp;referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.personal-wellness-consultant.com%2Feffects-of-smoking.html'); return false;" onmouseover="window.status='Center for Disease Control - Effects of Smoking'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.cdc.gov/TOBACCO/research_data/youth/stspta5.htm" target="_new">effects of smoking</a> &#8211; even second hand &#8211;  are well known.  Smokers harm their loved ones by exposing them to the smoke they exhale.  All sorts of health problems are related to breathing in second-hand smoke.</p>
<p>Children are especially susceptible to the dangers of second-hand smoke because their internal organs are still developing.  Children exposed to second-hand smoke are more likely to experience asthma, sudden infant death syndrome, bronchitis, pneumonia, and ear infections.</p>
<p>Effects of smoking also endanger unborn children.  Mothers who smoke are more likely to suffer from miscarriages, bleeding and nausea, and babies of smoking mothers have reduced birth weights or may be premature.  These babies are more susceptible to sudden infant death syndrome and may also have lifelong health complications due to chest infections and asthma.</p>
<p>Almost everybody knows that smoking is bad for your health.  Images of blackened lungs line school hallways and hospital waiting rooms, but people continue to take up smoking anyway.  Maybe it&#8217;s the pervasive romantic image of smoking,but that image has nothing to do with reality of the effects of cigarette smoking.</p>
<p>It is never too late to give up smoking; even people who have smoked for 20 years or more can realize great health benefits from giving up the habit.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Constipation and lower bowel congestion mean pretty much the same thing: Bad news&#8230;.</strong><br />
<img src="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/images/GItract.jpg" border="0" alt="Lower bowel is at the end of the line" width="180" height="238" align="Left" /></p>
<p>The lower bowel (large intestine or colon) is designed to pull excess water out of the body&#8217;s wastes to conserve and recycle the moisture [Hopefully, the small intestine has already removed the needed nutrients from the digested food traveling through it].</p>
<p>When your colon becomes congested, its natural peristaltic movement slows down, and the putrefaction process begins.</p>
<p>This is kind of like composting, which is great in the garden, but not so desirable in <em>us</em>. Basically, stuff starts to rot. And like composting attracts earthworms, putrefaction attracts <a onmouseover="window.status='worms in the bowel are parasites'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/parasite/parasites">parasites</a>. Yes, I agree that it&#8217;s a disturbing picture, but there it is. In a compost heap, you&#8217;ll get off-gassing and run-off. With constipation, it&#8217;s the bloodstream that absorbs these toxins, then transports them throughout your body.</p>
<p><a onmouseover="window.status='More Info on Natural Moves for Natural Constipation Relief'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/natural-moves" target="_new">More Info on Natural Moves for Natural Constipation Relief</a></p>
<p>Every cell can be affected, weakening your body&#8217;s defenses, and leaving openings for many illnesses and diseases. Your lymphatic system may eventually get sluggish because of all the backlog, and have trouble carting off the excess garbage.</p>
<blockquote><p>[The lymph system deposits this garbage into the bloodstream to be filtered by the liver and kidneys, going out through the urinary tract and bowel. If the bowel is still congested, the entire process begins again and even adds to itself. I think in computer systems, this is called an "endless loop".]</p></blockquote>
<p>In cases of <a onmouseover="window.status='Lymph Congestion'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/physical-congestion/lymphatic-congestion">sluggish lymph</a>, mucous secretions will tend to settle in the lungs, and muscles, tendons, and joints will begin to stiffen.</p>
<h3>Causes of Constipation</h3>
<p>Possible causes of bowel congestion, include obstructions in the bowel by &#8220;worm nests&#8221; (parasites), or paralysis of the alimentary tract (the &#8220;tube&#8221; from mouth to anus) due to polio, arsenic poisoning, or <a onmouseover="window.status='Lead Poisoning Symptoms'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/toxins/lead-poisoning-symptoms">lead poisoning</a> (heavy metals, chemical poisons).</p>
<p>But the most common cause of constipation, chronic or otherwise, is not getting enough fiber in your diet.</p>
<p>Processed foods, fried foods and the &#8220;bad fats,&#8221; refined flours and sugars, and the lack (or low intake) of fruits and vegetables are major contributors to constipation. If you add to that the regular consumption of diuretic liquids like coffee, sodas, and alcohol&#8211; which are a net loss as far as body moisture is concerned&#8211;  it would be very surprising if you <em>weren&#8217;t</em> constipated.</p>
<h3>Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)</h3>
<p>Sometimes, bowel congestion actually causes diarrhea symptoms.</p>
<p>The gunk on the colon walls  (hardened mucus and feces, <a onmouseover="window.status='Parasites'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/parasite/parasites">parasites</a>, possible obstructions) blocks nutrient assimilation and efficient movement of wastes. The liver and gall bladder want to help move this stuff <em>out</em>, and so produce and release extra bile to &#8220;lube the tube&#8221; (this can create another problem if your gall bladder has been removed).</p>
<p>The end result (no pun intended, I swear) is that you get both extremes: maybe constipation one day and diarrhea the next.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/images/enema-bag.jpg" border="0" alt="I think this enema bag must have been found by an archeologist" width="90" height="233" align="Right" /></p>
<p>At times, just taking a little psyllium husk every day will even out these highs and lows. You should always drink at least 8 ounces of water with 3 psyllium capsules.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>[NOTE on Psyllium Husk:</em> Don't take psyllium if you are already constipated <em>right now</em>.</p>
<p>This herb-- really the outer covering of the psyllium seed-- is well known for its liquid-absorbing capabilities. If the fiber takes up what's left of the moisture in an already dry colon, you will start to believe you are NEVER gonna go.</p>
<p>If you are this plugged up, a home enema or professional colonic treatment may be in order.]</p></blockquote>
<h3>Preventing Constipation</h3>
<p>To prevent lower bowel congestion, be sure to:</p>
<blockquote><p>1) Drink plenty of good water</p>
<p>2) Eat a variety of fruits and vegetables. I&#8217;d say the US government&#8217;s suggestion of &#8220;5 a Day&#8221; is a good starting point. 10 is even better.</p>
<p>3) Try to keep from sitting all day. Your body needs to <em>move</em>.</p>
<p>4) Make sure you&#8217;re getting &#8220;good fats&#8221; in your diet, like olive and flax oils, raw and sprouted nuts, grass-fed meats and wild fish.</p>

<p>Commonly found in commercial toothpaste and municipal drinking water, <a target="_blank" onmouseover="window.status='The dangers of sodium fluoride'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.holisticmed.com/fluoride/" target="_new">sodium fluoride</a> is a waste product of the aluminum, nuclear, and petroleum-based fertilizer industries. It has historically been used as rat poison and takes a long time to degrade in the environment.</p>
<p>Sodium fluoride (like other metals) accumulates in the right <a onmouseover="window.status='Kidney congestion'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/physical-congestion/kidney-stones">kidney</a>. It inhibits function of the thyroid, parathyroid, thymus, parotids, and pituitary gland. It is a major contributor to premature aging, and greatly hampers the immune system on a physical and spiritual/emotional level.</p>
<p>The production of collagen is inhibited by an over-abundance of sodium fluoride. Collagen is the matrix upon which our bodies build cartilage, bone, arteries and blood vessels, skin, hair, and teeth. You could say that brushing your teeth (with fluoridated toothpaste) is hazardous to your appearance&#8230; and your health. It causes weak bones and arteries, and (gasp) WRINKLES!</p>
<p>This toxic substance hinders the immune system by suppressing the thymus gland. On the emotional/ spiritual level, sodium fluoride affects your will-power (the Will Center or thymus chakra is located over the thymus gland), creating a society of sheep willing to be led by whoever is in charge.</p>
<p>So many people have low-performing thyroid glands these days, that the &#8220;accepted standards&#8221; in the medical community for &#8220;normal&#8221; thyroid function was lowered a few years back. Fluoridation of municipal (city) water systems began in the 1940&#8242;s in the USA. That means second- and third-generation sodium fluoride consumers are now in their adulthood (do you find it interesting that obesity is at an all-time high?).</p>
<p>And because the thyroid houses the &#8220;Integrity&#8221; Energy Center (thyroid chakra), many people are unable or unwilling to stand in their own power, and oppose what they know to be wrong. So unjust and even unlawful (although officially-sanctioned) practices continue.</p>
<p>If you wish to remove the fluoride from your municipal drinking water, the reverse osmosis process is the only water treatment presently available. Heat distillation, besides destroying the integrity of the water, evaporates and re-condenses sodium fluoride along with the H2o.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re concerned about dental health (as we all should be) calcium fluoride is a natural, non-toxic form easily obtained by drinking green or black tea (<a target="_blank" onmouseover="window.status='green tea'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.real-foods.net/chinese-herbal-tea-remedy.html" target="_new">Camelia sinensis</a>), or by taking Calc Fluor homeopathic cell salts.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t use Teflon coated cookware (or its derivatives, such as Tefal) because heat releases the toxic fluoride compounds contained in these substances.</p>
<p>Besides the obvious municipal water fluoridation, lots more fluoride is released into our surface water (rivers, lakes) because of industrial mining operations and the production and use of synthetic fertilizers.</p>
<p>Indications:Nausea, loss of appetite, headaches, brain fog, depression, loss of will power, mouth sores and ulcers, mottled teeth, rashes, stiffness, stomach cramps, premature wrinkling, brittle bones and teeth, constipation, overall weakness, muscular weakness, chronic fatigue, excessive thirst, headaches, skin rashes, joint pains, digestive upsets, tingling in the extremities, loss of mental acuity, hyperactivity in children.</p>
<p>Fluoride poisoning can also result in:</p>
<ul>
<li>Destruction of about 60 enzymes, including cytochrome C and cholinesterase, which handle oxygen</li>
<li>Genetic change in sperm and other cells</li>
<li>Downs Syndrome increase of 250% with 70% of these children developing cataracts</li>
<li>Increase in infant mortality, spontaneous abortions and miscarriages</li>
<li>Increased infant birth defects</li>
<li>Goiter</li>

<p><strong>Countering Learning Disability</strong></p>
<p>Your brain can use 40 – 60 % of your blood glucose, so a good, healthy diet is essential when supporting the ability to learn.</p>
<p>Avoid MSG, fake foods, processed sugar (and go easy on the good stuff), caffeine, sodas, and refined (table) salt. Eliminate artificial colorings and flavors, pesticides, and other chemicals. Go as “organic” as possible with your food, and your household, too!</p>
<p>A depleted physical and nervous system makes it practically impossible to be in a mind-open, learning-able state. The ability to understand and carry out instruction, attention span, concentration level, and memory can all be improved with a good diet.</p>
<p>Also, the old phrase, “use it or lose it!” definitely applies here. You need to exercise your body AND your mind, according to your abilities, of course.</p>
<p>Read something every day, even if it’s just the “funnies.”</p>
<p>Learn something new every day. You can do actual research, and you can be observant. The smallest child, and maybe most especially, the person you most loathe, has something to teach you.</p>

<h1>Flatworms are Not a &#8220;Fluke&#8221;</h1>
<h2>&#8230;But They <em>ARE</em> Parasites</h2>
<p>Flukes are flatworm parasites that have two ventral suckers, allowing them to attach themselves to their hosts.</p>
<p>Humans usually become infected by eating undercooked or raw seafood (can you say &#8220;Sushi&#8221;?), infected vegetables such as watercress or water chestnuts, or drinking, swimming, or wading in water that&#8217;s infected.</p>
<p>Even though they are microscopic in size, flukes can lay 100,000 eggs a day. And those eggs are covered with teensy spines, causing a lot of tissue damage as they pass through your body.</p>
<p>And pass through, they do.</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;re infected with parasitic flukes, these flatworms can migrate to all the organs in your body: lungs, heart, intestine, brain, bladder, pancreas, liver, blood vessels; you name it.</p>
<p>And as if that&#8217;s not enough, flukes also release toxic metabolites (wastes from their own metabolic processes), wreaking more havoc with their host&#8217;s tissues.</p>
<p>Types of flukes include:</p>
<p><a target="_blank" onmouseover="window.status='Blood Flukes - Vessel Villains'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/parasite/blood-flukes"><em><strong>Blood flukes</strong></em></a> &#8211;  can cause blood clots in their host, often associated with strokes, high blood pressure, or heart attack.</p>
<p><a name="fish"></a><em><strong>Fish flukes</strong></em> &#8211; cause skin problems, liver and intestinal pressure, gas and other digestive problems. Avoid undercooked fish.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" name="intestinal"></a><a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/parasite/intestinal-flukes"><em><strong>Intestinal flukes</strong></em></a> &#8211; cause excess mucus and sinus trouble, too-slow or too-fast circuit through the digestive tract, intestinal problems, and they are sometimes associated with dioxin poisoning. If they make their way to other organs besides the intestines, they can pave the path to cancer, according to bio-chemist and naturopathic doctor, Hulda Clark, in her book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1890035009?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=realfoodsmake-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1890035009"><em>The Cure for All Cancers</em></a><img style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=realfoodsmake-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1890035009" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" />.</p>

Often associated with alcohol abuse and hepatitis.</p>
<p><em><strong>Lung flukes</strong></em> &#8211; can cause a dry or persistent cough that just won&#8217;t go away, shortness of breath or impaired breathing, anemia, even oxygen starvation through the entire blood system. Weakened lungs are very attractive to other illnesses like flu, pneumonia, and fungal infections.</p>
<p><a name="lymph"></a><em><strong>Lymph flukes</strong></em> &#8211; may be implicated in any lymphatic disorder including breast cancer, lymphoma, and leukemia. Comes from raw fish and shellfish, and infected water vegetation such as watercress and water chestnuts; can be picked up by drinking or swimming in infected water.</p>
<p><em><strong>Pancreatic flukes</strong></em> &#8211; associated with alcoholism, autism, sugar imbalances such as diabetes and hypoglycemia, candida in the liver, and pancreatic disorders in general. These parasites come from sheep that are weakened by the chemicals on the grass they eat.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>For Electromagnetic Imbalance or Electromagnetic Interference</h3>
</p>
<p><img border="0" src="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/images/laptop-cell250.jpg" align="Left" WIDTH="251" HEIGHT="167" alt="A cell phone AND a laptop...She needs an electromagnetic chaos eliminator"></p>
<p>I believe most people in our society today need an electromagnetic chaos eliminator,  called a <a target="_blank" href="http://personal-wellness-consultant.com/electromagneticchaoseliminator-qlink" OnMouseOut="window.status='Q Link'; return true"  OnMouseOver="window.status='Q Link'; return true"><i><b>Q Link</b></i></a>, because they suffer from electromagnetic interference.
<p>It’s everywhere: computers, TVs, cell phones, microwaves, super-sized electrical power lines and transformers. <br clear="all">
<p align="Left">Some folks are even more sensitive,  and are affected by the energy- or frequency- of other people’s emotions. You know how you can walk into a room and immediately feel like you don’t want to be there (even when you&#8217;re not facing the IRS auditor or your ex-spouse <img src='http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' />
<p align="Left">Perhaps it&#8217;s <i>energy</i> that you&#8217;re feeling?
<p><b>Maybe we all need protection.</b>
</p>
<p>
<p>We live in a flow of electromagnetic energy: it surrounds us and passes through us. This is our natural state.</p>
<p>
<p align="Left">When a “something” impedes this flow, a “short circuit” occurs, and the divine pattern of Life and health is skewed.
<p><embed id="VideoPlayback" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docid=-8596016390862320540&#038;hl&#038;rel=0=en&#038;fs=true" style="width:400px;height:326px" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>
<p><a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/electromagneticchaoseliminator-qlink"><b><i>Buy a Q Link NOW</i></b></a>
<p>The very large magnets used in MRIs, etc. can really mess with your personal electromagnetic frequency and magnetic flow. It’s a good idea to find someone who does “energy work” and get a session or two from him/her after you’ve had a CAT scan or MRI. Or a severe electrical shock.</p>
<p>
<p align="Left">Being on the receiving end of a violent emotional (angry) outburst can also affect your body’s electrical system. This is one of the things that dedicated meditators (try saying <i>that</i> three times, quickly) are working on in their practice of <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/meditation/practice-meditation" OnMouseOut="window.status='The Practice of Meditation'; return true"  OnMouseOver="window.status='The Practice of Meditation'; return true">daily meditation</a>: redesigning and rebuilding their neurotransmitters so they are not (as) affected by  the chaos that comes at them.</p>
<p>
<p align="Left">Some possible symptoms of electromagnetic imbalance are restlessness, nervousness, lack of energy, moody or fearful, central nervous system disorders, poor circulation, malfunctioning or <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness/congestion-physical.html" OnMouseOut="window.status=''; return true"  OnMouseOver="window.status='www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness/congestion-physical.html'; return true">congested organs</a>, nutritionally deficient, or excessive <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/environmental-toxins.html" OnMouseOut="window.status=''; return true"  OnMouseOver="window.status='http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness/environmental-toxins.html'; return true">toxins</a>, especially heavy metals.
<p align="Left">A non-magnetic tool, the patented Q Link technology (electromagnetic chaos eliminator), has been available on the market a number of years (it is worn as a pendant). I’ve found them to be helpful for myself and for my clients in relieving stress, keeping a calm outlook, soothing nerves, and clearing brain fog. Some people even believe it  keeps their blood pressure at a normal level (possibly it helps with their anger issues?).
<p align="Left">Now that Kevin Trudeau has recommended using <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/home-remedy/electromagneticchaoseliminator-qlink.html">electromagnetic chaos eliminators</a> (in his <i>Natural Cures</i> book) for avoiding electrical pollution, I’m seeing more and more pendants on people, and even on <i>pets</i>!
<p><img border="0" src="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/images/power-lines.jpg" align="Right" WIDTH="216" HEIGHT="144" alt="We all need EMF protection"></p>
<p><br CLEAR="ALL"><br />
<h3>Magnets for Healing</h3>
<p align="Left">On the other hand, <i>healing</i> with magnetism is the oldest form of healing known to humankind. The huge electromagnetic power of the Universe is utilized in “the laying on of hands.”
<p align="Left">Your body, like a magnet (and like the Earth), has a positive (right; masculine) side, and a negative (left; feminine) side (this doesn’t particularly refer to gender. Well, maybe sometimes- a whole ‘nother subject).
<p align="Left">North- and south-pole magnets have been used for healing for a really long time, and there are a lot of conflicting theories about what works best. Maybe I was prejudiced by <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness">my teacher</a> , but I believe the magnets are more helpful when they are in motion, rather than taped or strapped to your body. The teensy magnets that acupuncturists use are a different matter: they are literally pin-pointing an acupuncture point with magnetic stimulation.
<p>Some people find benefit using the magnetic products on the market. Some aren’t helped at all, and some folks find the magnets to be very annoying (I’m one of these- they actually make me weaker).<br CLEAR="ALL"><br CLEAR="ALL">
<p align="Left">
<p><a name= "shoemagnets"></a><br />
<blockquote>Here’s an easy and inexpensive way to boost your own electromagnetic frequency without risking too high an input—
<p align="Left"></p>
<p>Buy a roll of “refrigerator  magnet” material from the craft store. Cut off about an inch for each of your feet. Apply to the inside of your shoes, in the arch (if you put it under the insert, you probably won’t even feel it). This will make your own electromagnetic field, and your  immune system, stronger.</p></blockquote>
<p align="Left">One of the reasons I moved to a rural area is that I seem to be highly sensitive to all the microwave and other electrical pollution that is a constant in the city. </p>
<p>But even though the exposure is not as great here in the country, I do use a cell phone (and a cordless phone in my house), watch TV occasionally, am on the computer an awful lot, and my day job is right across the street from a public WI-FI connection.
<p align="Left">So the first thing I put on when I get dressed in the morning?<br />You guessed it — my Q Link !
<p><a target="_blank" target="new" href="http://www.radiationshield.info" OnMouseOut="window.status='ave Shield'; return true"  OnMouseOver="window.status='Wave Shield'; return true">Protect Your Ears &#038; Brain from Cell Phone Radiation</a><br />The average hands-free kit for mobile phones doesn&#8217;t protect your brain from radiation. Instead, they channel three times the dose into the skull that you receive by holding the phone next to your ear, according to the Consumer&#8217;s Association.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness/environmental-toxins">More on Environmental Toxins</a><br />The two leading categories of environmental toxins are chemical poisons and metal poisons, with magnetic (electrical) imbalances quickly gaining.

<p>The liver is your body’s largest gland. It lies mostly under the right ribcage (beneath the diaphragm), but extends to the left side at the top. It is shaped sort of like a triangle, if you saw a diagram looking at the front of the body.</p>
<p>Its most important job (it has many) is to reduce or remove <a onmouseover="window.status='Environmental Toxins'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness/environmental-toxins.html">toxic chemicals</a> from the bloodstream.</p>
<p>This includes pharmaceutical and recreational drugs, poisonous substances including insect stings, and even <a onmouseover="window.status='Emotion and Etheriological Substances'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness/emotion.html">emotionally-produced toxins</a></p>
<p>and overload of reactive foodstuffs.</p>
<p>The liver is the most affected organ when it comes to <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/causes-of-illness/environmental-toxins.html">metal and chemical poisoning</a>. When your liver is overloaded, it becomes unable to detoxify your system (This can happen quickly, as in massive exposure to some toxic substance, or it can be a gradual build-up over  years of “abuse”).</p>
<p>That’s when your body starts accumulating (storing) toxins.</p>
<p>Cirrhosis of the liver is a degenerative inflammatory disease that results in hardening and scarring of liver cells. A condition that is similar to cirrhosis, but on a microscopic scale, is caused by parasites &#8211;  <a onmouseover="window.status='www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/parasite/flukes'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-causes/parasite/flukes">liver flukes</a> &#8211; “tunneling” through the tissue. This obviously causes damage and scarring, and so affects liver function.</p>
<p>The liver has a huge capacity to regenerate itself, if given the chance. This ability to produce more liver tissue is the reason that people with liver dysfunction, such as cirrhosis, may have a “pregnant” look (their liver has become enlarged and probably even “hardened.”</p>
<p>If much of the liver becomes unusable, the body simply make a larger liver, so the body can continue to operate on a fairly normal basis).</p>
<p>Jaundice is due to congestion or blockage in the gall bladder duct, or can be from infection.</p>
<p>A “sluggish” liver can be helped by applying castor oil over the entire abdomen and up onto the ribcage (Castor oil is very difficult to wash out of fabric. Either wear clothing that it’s OK to stain, or use Saran wrap or similar plastic film to shield your clothing and bed linens). This is an <a target="_blank" onmouseover="window.status='Edgar Cayce Foundation'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://edgarcayce.org" target="_new">Edgar Cayce</a> remedy that I’ve seen help even in cases of hepatitis.</p>
<p>Symptoms of liver congestion include allergies, stiff neck, alcohol abuse (or other addictions), malnutrition, nutritional malabsorption issues, diarrhea, upset stomach, jaundice, hepatitis, cirrhosis of the liver, “liver spots”, puffy face, hemorrhoids, strong body odor, tendency to hold weight in the upper abdomen, and chronic throat problems.</p>
<p><a onmouseover="window.status='Liver Cleanse Suggestions'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/cleansing/liver-cleanse">Liver Cleanse Suggestions</a><br />
My favorite liver cleanse allows and encourages your body in its own natural processes.</p>

<p>A bacterial infection can&#8217;t get inside a living cell. Instead, it surrounds the cell and multiplies in the waste it creates.</p>
<p>There are a number of effective anti-microbials (germ killers) on the alternative medicine lists. The main ones are colloidal silver, oregano oil, olive leaf, and for topical use only, tea tree oil. Echinacea and goldenseal are considered <em>bacteriostatic</em>; they discourage bacteria from reproducing, which allows your immune system to make better headway.</p>
<p>A round of antibiotics will kill the invading bacteria (and the good guys, too), but will leave the cell uninjured.</p>
<p>But since the beneficial bacteria has <em>also</em> been wiped out, it&#8217;s very important to replace the good guys by taking pro-biotics, such as acidophilus or lactobacillus.</p>
<p>Use a good supplement for two to six weeks after an antibiotic treatment, then make sure to eat fermented foods like kefir, yogurt, sauerkraut, or kimchi on a regular basis.</p>
<p>This will help maintain (or regain) balance and help your immune system.</p>
<p>Half of the antibiotics used in the USA are given to farm animals &#8211; our food supply &#8211; and is part of the reason bacterial infections are becoming immune to antibiotic treatment. The surviving bacteria pass their drug-resistant genes along, and common germs that were once easy to extinguish are getting harder to kill with available drugs.</p>
<p>One more reason to strengthen your immune system.</p>
<p><strong>Intestinal bacteria</strong> &#8211; Antibiotics tend to drive this condition deeper into the body.</p>
<p><strong>Staphylococcus</strong> &#8211; Staph is often found in hospitals and indirectly contributes to many deaths.</p>
<p><strong>Strep</strong> &#8211; A strep infection can turn you into a hot and short-tempered person.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Aluminum poisoning affects the neural tissue and spine; it can settle in the brain where it inhibits cell oxygenation (there is a definite relationship of aluminum and Alzheimer&#8217;s disease. <em>Officially</em>, it&#8217;s not known whether too much aluminum leads to Alzheimer&#8217;s, or if Alzheimer&#8217;s causes your brain to hold on to aluminum).</p>
<p>Mucous membranes are also greatly affected by this mineral. When exposed to aluminum, the sinuses produce more mucous (trying to rinse it out?), creating sinus drainage, which can lead to sore throat and lung congestion.</p>
<p>Or if the sinuses aren&#8217;t draining properly, a sinus infection can be the result.</p>
<h2>Sources of Aluminum Toxicity</h2>
<p><a target="_blank" onmouseover="window.status='Toxicity and Aluminum'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" href="http://www.emedicine.com/med/topic113.htm" target="_new">Aluminum poisoning</a> can come from practically anywhere: beer and soda cans, aluminum foil and cookware, antacids and baking powder (get the NON-aluminum kind to bake with); it&#8217;s the active ingredient in anti-perspirants.</p>
<p>Aluminum sulphate is sometimes added to foods to prevent caking, and to municipal water supplies to make the water less cloudy. <em>Safe</em> levels, of course <img src='http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Using commercial hair dyes, toothpaste, and baby powder can all lead to aluminum toxicity. Remember &#8211; heavy metal poisoning is cumulative. Read ingredients carefully.</p>
<p>Chem Trails are another source of aluminum toxicity. Evidently, aluminum (when ground to a powder) can be added to jet fuel without adversely affecting the engines. Maybe this is why Chem Trails seem to glow in the moonlight.</p>
<p>Possible symptoms of  poisoning from aluminum include Alzheimer&#8217;s disease, forgetfulness, stomach ulcers or stomach pain, chronic sinus problems, low thyroid, <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/physical-congestion/kidney-stones">kidney problems</a> (especially the right kidney), dry mouth, small, hard stools, babies who cry a lot.</p>
<h2>How to Avoid Aluminum Poisoning</h2>
<p>If you drink beer, stick to the small, specialized breweries. They&#8217;re more likely to be using stainless steel brew tanks and glass bottles.</p>
<p>Avoid sodas; it&#8217;s pretty difficult to find a brand that&#8217;s halfway healthy anyway. Even the organic ones are mostly empty calories.</p>
<p>Stainless steel cookware is probably safer than its aluminum counterpart; <a href="http://www.personal-wellness-consultant.com/cookinwithglass" target="new">Pyrex®</a> and Corningware® may be better. Practice eating more of your vegetables <em>raw</em>.</p>
<p>Read all ingredients carefully, whether it&#8217;s food or cosmetics. Use as few chemicals (read: stuff you can&#8217;t pronounce) as is practical.</p>
<p>The best remedy for aluminum poisoning is probably in the homeopathic realm. These formulas (or single remedies) can safely chelate heavy metal toxicity and take it out of your body.</p>

The two leading categories of environmental toxins are chemical poisons and metal poisons, with magnetic (electrical) imbalances quickly gaining.</p>
