Psoriasis is Curable
Kim Kardashian has psoriasis. It is not supposed to happen to the "beautiful people". But is has happened to Kim and according to the story, and they say it is incurable. Sorry, but I beg to differ. Psoriasis is a symptom in my books, a symptom of an overloaded liver and digestive system. Now the standard medical treatment is corticosteroid creams. Trouble is that it doesn\'t address the cause and actually drives the toxins deeper into the body. Think of the skin as an organ of elimination. And it is. Have you ever worked up a sweat? You are detoxing when you sweat. The main organs of elimination are the kidneys, liver and hence the large intestine. But when you are toxic, for whatever reason, the liver and kidneys fail to detox as well as they should so your body then uses either your lungs and/or your skin to eliminate toxins from your body. Enough said. If you do have problems like Kim, start by avoiding the ...Read More

Your Health Mentor
There is a saying in Law: when one acts as their own lawyer they have a fool for a client. The same can be said about people who act as their own physician. The more your educated, the more you’re aware of your body, and the more knowledgeable you’ll become. However, the expression, “a little … Continue →
Growing Older, Growing Strong
CLICK ABOVE TITLE TO READ MORE: It has been said that youth is wasted on the young and as I age, I agree more and more with that statement everyday. Men reach their physical peak at about age 30 and their sexual peak at about age 18. That just doesn’t seem right, at least not to me as I sailed past these peaks and didn’t even know they existed. Now that I am on the downward slide toward old age, I think that someone should do something about reversing this error in our DNA . . .
