Health Alternatives
OK, so what has this got to do with WA.
Well I do consider all of you my second family. I do care that you have some basic choices as to certain foods, or things you may do to remain healthy and address certain concerns.
Bottom line I need you all, you help me and I am grateful. So I need you to be healthy.
Recently I suffered from a severe back ache. Could have something to do with a previous accident. I had to excuse myself from WA as I could not focus. By the way thank you all for your well wishes. I tried to respond to all of them, if I missed anyone I apologize.
My site is all about natural remedies and alternatives. I got shafted by certain prescription drugs.
Please, Please follow your doctors orders.
Personally there is have a new Pharmacy I go to now, I call it "God's Pharmacy".
So here in picture form are my most recent findings. I am sure you already know about a lot about these alternatives.
For my back pain, there were suggestions of using ice and or hot packs. This is what I found out. Picture please...
Please forgive my crude attempts when it comes to images, but don't go away I have more.
Somehow almost everything I research comes down to one thing in general, Inflammation. Almost everything I find relates to this herb/spice that keeps popping up, Turmeric. I'am sure we will encounter it along the way.
Yes skin care is important. I want to be and look 18 till I die. Well I am working on it. Dreams never die just the dreamer.
Well I have to admit that is a newbie for me. Personally I thought it was the Martinis, 3 olives,
Shaken not stirred
I hope you don't mind this intrusion. I do believe in this stuff. This works for me, but may not work for you. This is why I always recommend you follow your Doctors orders.
Sure I appreciate the ambulance rides with lights flashing, and most of all the nurses. I do believe they are all born with heart's of gold.
Sorry I could not get all the pictures placed in the ideal positions, but one day I will learn.
I wish you all a strong healthy life. I want to be there when we all rejoice in our successes and accomplishments. This happens daily as soon as we log on to The Wealthy Affiliate Dashboard and with determination and persistence, yes patience too will arrive at the destination we started here at WA, one step at a time. I find my road is long through many a winding curve that will lead me to success. A song popped into my head.
All the best,
Your friend forever,
Michael Mortimer. AKA lesabre.

Twenty-four days ago I watched a documentary called What the Health. It's on YouTube if you want to look at it.
It completely changed my thinking about food in general and about a lot of the disease American's, in particular, are facing today.
I went from a full-blown pizza eatin', white bread lovin', meat & tater, second helping carnivore to adopting a vegan lifestyle overnight. No bread, potatoes, or meat of any kind, to a strictly plant-based diet.
Was it easy? Yes and no. I still have impure thoughts when I see a pizza commercial on TV. lol But I'm bound and determined to stay the course.
Without getting into a rant, I feel better, losing tonnage, lower blood sugar, lower blood pressure, and my skin is even looking better. I feel healthy, more mentally alert. and have more energy.
Another perk is a lower grocery bill. I would say 80% to 90% of the stuff they are selling in grocery stores no longer applies to me. There is so much unhealthy crap in our stores but you don't see it until you change the way you look at food.
Now I wouldn't recommend this lifestyle for just anyone. (it's not a diet per se. It a complete change in lifestyle). Only the folks interested in feeling better and living longer need give it a go.
It does have a direct impact on WA. My thought process is improved. I'm more creative and more active on here. I'm getting more done than I ever have before with my online business endeavors.
I highly recommend watching What the Health? It can change you for the good.
Hi KC, good for you. I can see you are reaping the benefits of changing your diet. No more impure thoughts about pizza.
I so strongly a proper nutritious diet combined with exercise, sleep sunshine are key to a healthy diet.
I am still weaning off some medications I have been prescribed and going the herbal way. No side effects and I feel so much better.
Best wishes,
Michael
Hi Michael,
Thank you for another great post.
I do trust your back ache problem is now over & you are back to good health.
I do, wherever possible, prefer Natural Alternatives & avoid pharmaceutical medications.
"This works for me, but may not work for you". Yes it does work for me too.
Turmeric is a daily ritual for me. It has eliminated Arthritis in my hands. Combined with Apple Cider Vinegar (unfiltered with the mother).I also removed sugar & soft drinks from my diet. I continue to enjoy good health at my tender age of 78 in a couple of months LOL. Fortunately I have not had any health issues for several years.
So far so good !
Denis
Hi Denis,
My back feels much better, thank you.
Denis, you obviously have done some research. Not too many people know what is meant by the mother in apple cider vinegar. I use Bragg's and give the bottle a good shake before I use any. I also find there are a lot of benefits to Himalayan salt.
Glad to hear you are in good health, sodas (soft drinks can be nasty, especially the diet kind).
Be well my friend.
Best wishes,
Michael
Thank you Michael
I also use Braggs & give it a good shake too.
I will check out the Himalayan salt
Best regards
Enjoy your Sunday
Denis
WOW, looking good my dear. You are blessed, but you have taken your good health into your hand.
Thanks Micheal:)
Great info and advice my friend. Turmeric is a niche for me and I am convinced in what the quality supplements offer:)
Iv'e been throwing them back for a few weeks now and I feel great.
Inflammation! the serial killer that leads to many probable causes so I too am learning.
Can't wait to that DAY! bro.
Stay Well, and Stay Blessed my friend.
Rob

This is so important.
We are on the same mission!
Just writing an article on Tumeric....most diseases are from inflammation, as you wrote here in your post.
I want to get off meds and I know CBD will be my answer, just have to wait for law changes in New Zealand.
FDA has so much to answer for.
Kind wishes.
Daisy
Hi Daisy,
It really unfortunate the laws in NZ do not allow CBD for medicinal purposes.
I am weaning down from my prescription medications, so many side effects.
I hope things change for you Daisy. Thank you for commenting.
Best wishes,
Michael
