This video provides important information about identifying old tires and the safety issues related to old tires.
I had no idea of the danger or that tires are being sold by reputable stores that are life-threatening. Please pass along this information to family, friends, and associates so they can protect the lives of those they love.
I hope you all appreciate the message in this blog about ObamaCare and that you will push your Republican representatives who win in November to repeal this terrible law. Not that Republicans are much better than the Democrats, at least they don’t want to expand government to the point of destroying America. If vote independent or don’t vote at all, we are giving a vote to the Democrats. Please remember that. Lets get rid of the Democrat majority so the country has checks and balances again and then we can start cleaning house in the Republican Party.

I went to the doctor on friday last week. I had a friend take me to the doctor because I was so weak I couldn’t walk from the bed to the bathroom, about 10 steps. The three people who tried to take my blood pressure couldn’t get a reading. Finally an old nurse got a reading of 110/70. They took tests and determined I had a respiratory infection and sent me home .
That evening, my husband took me to see local fireworks but I started to feel bad so we came back home. I got from the car about 5 steps and passed out in the garage. I couldn’t move for about 1/2 but finally we got me into the house and into bed. I was ill all night so finally, at 5AM my husband got out of bed and said I’m talking you to the hospital. He got me to the chair in the family room where I passed out again. There was no way he was getting me to the car so he called 911.
In the ambulance they could not get a blood pressure reading or any veins to get blood. They poked me everywhere and got nothing. The same thing happened at the hospital. After hours and lots of tests, the hospital decided I had bronchitis. They gave shot of anti-biotic and sent me home….where I promptly passed out a third time trying to
get to the rest room. That time, I woke up with my husband scared out of his mind and slapping me on both sides of my face saying, “Are you with me, are you with me, are you with me”? Can you believe they had actually sent me home with a BP of 70/40? The nurses were shocked.
Two men from the church came over and gave me a blessing as I lay there on the floor in the hallway, unable to even crawl. Brian was a retired EMT and so, when he said ”I don’t like how you look” I took it seriously. He told me husband to call an ambulance and have them take me right back to the hospital. He actually saved my life by telling my
husband to do that because I had blood clots in the lungs and legs. I am lucky to be alive.
IF I HAD BEEN UNDER OBAMA CARE, I WOULD HAVE DIED OR SUFFERED A STROKE FOR SURE BECAUSE THE ER DOCTOR HAD TO DIG DEEPER AND TAKE EXPENSIVE TESTS THAT INSURANCE COMPANIES MIGHT BULK AT NORMALLY TO FIND THE PROBLEM. WITHOUT THOSE TESTS THE NEXT TWO DAYS AND ADMITTING ME INTO THE HOSPITAL, THOSE CLOTS WOULD HAVE KILLED ME. SO I AM PROOF THAT OBAMA CARE IS A BAD IDEA! THE DOCTOR SAID THERE IS OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING ELSE GOING ON AND I WILL DIG UNTIL I FIND IT.
Well, I came home from the hospital Sat night and I am doing well today. I now have joined the Coumadin crowd. Oh yea! I think of how close I came to dealth and how blessed I am to have survived. It sure makes us take a closer look at the blessings of life each day. My husband was an angel for sure.
Have you heard that hard-to-find cancer can be detected in a saliva test?
I just read a report at the following link that discusses this test. The full report can be read at this link:http://www.newsmaxhealth.com/headline_health/saliva_test_detect_cancer/
2010/06/30/327112.html?s=al&promo_code=A2EA-1
Here is a summary of the above mentioned report.
Japan’s Keio University and University of California, Los Angeles, say they detect “high probabilities
of pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, and oral cancer” with a simple saliva test. This is exciting news,
if true. However, I saw a news report a month ago that said the saliva test might not be what it
claims. Pharmacies have been reported to have pulled saliva tests until they know more.
I did not know if there is still a concern about this technology so I called my own pharmacy. I was told they have never carried the saliva test because they usually carry only a few of those type of test. I then did a Google search on the subject and this is the
link for you to search this subject on you own.
Notwithstanding, you should know that “researchers analyzed saliva samples of 215 people, including cancer patients, and identified 54 substances whose presence can be used to detect the disease, Keio University said in a statement.”
In addition, “by further analyzing the substances,
the test detected 99 percent of pancreatic cancer cases, 95 percent of breast cancer, and 80 percent
of oral cancer cases among those taking part, ” the NewsMaxHealth.com reported. These numbers are impressive results.
Cancer researcher claim “The new technology can detect up to 500 different substances found in saliva at one time, said professor Tomoyoshi Soga at
Keio’s Institute for Advanced Biosciences.” He also said that “the technology would make it especially
easier to detect pancreatic and oral cancers.”
We know now that the survival rates of pancreatic cancer and oral cancer are especially low because, when they discover cancer, it is too far advanced or
the patient dies before clear early symptoms appear and spot the illness in time. The claim is that saliva
tests can detect cancer in its early stages, which often makes the illness treatable.
This report also claims “Saliva can be sampled more easily and casually than blood or stool inspection,” said institute head Masaru Tomita in the statement. And that “We would like to apply this technology not only to cancer cases but also other illnesses as well,” he said.

Dr. Hibberd’s answer to the question: What is the best remedy for athlete’s foot/toenail fungus? Ozone therapy? Colloidal silver? All topical treatments have failed.
He said that Athlete’s foot is most easily treated with topical care rather than oral treatments, which has the potential for drug interactions and mild potential liver toxicity.
Dr. Hibberd says that “Not all treatments are available to you without prescription. It might be best to see your doctor if you are unsure what to use, and to be sure the agents you plan on using will be effective. Most cases of athlete’s foot will respond to prescription topical treatment. An occasional case will require oral medication, also. Do not forget to have your footwear inspected, and replace the liner if necessary.”
As far as toenail fungal infection, he says it is more resistant and treatment lasts over several weeks or months. Onychomycosis (toenail fungus) responds best.
In the past, surgical removal of the nail and many months of anti-fungal were required. I remember my father pulling off the toenail, but the infection always came back. Without anti-fungal medication, the infection will not go away and continually return. However, the newer oral agents are far more effective and less problematic (PAINFUL) for most people.
Something that we can do to help ourselves. Nice to know.

About Heart Attacks
There are other symptoms of an heart attack besides the pain on the left arm.
One must also be aware of an intense pain on the chin, as well as nausea and
lots of sweating, however these symptoms may also occur less frequently..
Note: There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack.
The majority of people (about 60%) who had a heart attack during their sleep,
did not wake up. However, if it occurs, the chest pain may wake you up from
your deep sleep.
If that happens, immediately dissolve
two aspirins in your mouth and
swallow them with a bit of water.
Afterwards :
- phone a neighbor or a family member who lives very close by
- say “heart attack!”
- say that you have taken 2 aspirins .
- take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait for their arrival and….

Health report About Memory From News Max Health, Total Wellness For A Better Life
If you have noticed more “senior moments,” even if you are not old enough to be considered a senior citizen, you may want to use the link above and read their article about increasing your intake of magnesium.
According to research, they have found that magnesium is a key nutrient in memory function and that it may be even more essential for healthy brains than previously thought. Unfortunately, even in industrialized countries, magnesium deficiencies are common.
Dr. Inna Slutsky of Tel Aviv University’s Sackler School of Medicine discovered that a new synthetic magnesium supplement, magnesium-L-theronate (MgT) crosses the blood-brain barrier and helps both young and aging animals to improve memory.
In addition, they discovered that MgT improved the ability to learn as well as enhanced both short-term and long-term memory.
Until MgT becomes available, augment your magnesium levels by adding magnesium-rich foods to your diet. They include green leafy vegetables, broccoli, almonds, cashews, halibut, and soybeans.
Question: Should grapefruit be avoided by all people who take statins?
Dr. Hibberd’s answer to this question is available at the link above from NewsMax Health.
In essence, he says “Yes”, both grapefruit and grapefruit juice should be avoided by all users of statin medications and those who use drug combinations containing statins.
In addition, he says remember to check the side of canned and bottled soft drinks for added grapefruit juice. Evidently, grapefruit and grapefruit juice prolong the half life of statins and other medications that are metabolized by the liver. This delay will allow toxins to build up and cause major side affects. One side affect may cause death.
Dr. Hibberd’s list of drugs affected by grapefruit includes a number of antihistamines (astemizole, terfenadine), all statins (Lipitor, Mevacor, Zocor, Pravachol, Lescol, and Crestor), and all all statin combo drugs (Vytorin, Caduet, and Advicor).
In addition, immune suppressants (cyclosporin), dextromethorphan, methadone, OxyContin, midazolam, caffeine, and even sildenafil (Viagra), as well as many chemotherapy agents, should be avoided.

NewsMax Health and Wellness reports that high-calorie foods can become as addictive as cocaine or nicotine, and it could cause compulsive eating and obesity.
Understanding the condition and developing therapy to treat it is the concern doctors have now about fast foods. Also a concern is the extent to which these foods have captured the American consumer.
A study that involves rats found high-calorie foods can trigger an addiction-like response in the brain.
The study found that frequently overeating high-calorie foods cause decreased levels of a specific dopamine receptor, which is a chemical in the brain that allows a person to feel reward, has been reported in humans addicted to drugs.
“Obesity may be a form of compulsive eating. Other treatments in development for other forms of compulsion, for example drug addiction, may be very useful for the treatment of obesity,” researcher Paul Kenny of The Scripps Research Institute in Florida said in a telephone interview.
Obesity-related diseases cost the United States an estimated $150 billion each year, according to U.S. federal agencies. An estimated two-thirds of American adults and one-third of children are obese or overweight.
A group of scientists did a study of their own and bought all of the stuff that people really like. They bought Ding Dongs, cheesecake, bacon, sausage, the same things that you probably like as well but you know you shouldn’t eat them too often.
The doctors also bought healthy foods and devised a diet plan for three groups of rats. They wanted to understand how rats choose certain foods when given limited and unlimited access to high-calorie foods.
One group of rats ate a balanced and healthy diet. Another group had healthy foods but also had access to high-calorie foods for one hour of the day. Rats in the third group were fed healthy foods with unlimited access to high-calorie foods. The third group developed a desire for high-calorie food and munched on it all day. They quickly became obese.
The rats in this experiment had also been trained to expect a minor shock when exposed to a light. But when the rats that had unlimited access to high-calorie food were shown the light, they did not respond to the potential danger. Instead, they continued to eat their snacks.
This behavior is concerning because it suggests that people will behave the same way when they have unlimited access to high-calorie foods (fast foods) and will prefer those foods over healthy foods.
I noticed this type of behavior with my sister’s family. She worked and so often she bought fast food for dinner. While I was visiting her, she made a pot of stew that looked and smelled wonderful. I could hardly wait for dinner. However, her kids complained and ate very little of their dinner. She said they do that often because they would rather have fast food for dinner.
I noticed the same thing in myself when I was eating out often because of a busy schedule. I had to recognize my own addiction to fast food and make myself cook at home. Also, I had read several years ago that sometimes fast food places add some sort of an additive to their food that makes a person overeat and come back often for more of their foods.
With my own experience with fast food, my sister’s problems with her kids eating healthy food, and the report I read about food additives in fast foods to encourage overeating, I believe this study on rats and that high-calorie foods are addictive. You may find the same situation in your family. I welcome your comments or experiences with high-calorie foods.
