Adults' Health Zone:
In answer to many inquiries, I have recently finished
a whole new section of Y2K Health and Detox.com
Liver Function - Signs and Symptoms of Liver Disease..
On these pages, I describe what the liver is...what
its function is...common liver diseases and what you can do about
keeping yours in good health or helping you heal any damage where
possible.
I've included information on liver detox, digestive
problems relating to the liver, and liver tissue repair.

What is Dr. Pepper Made Of??
Well, this seems like a strange question..but one
of the kids in the practise asked me and I promised I'd try to
find out...here are the results of my searching...
Dr Pepper is the oldest major soft drink in the U.S.
It was first made and sold in 1885 in Morrison's Old Corner Drugstore
in Waco, Texas. It was named after Dr. Charles Pepper who was supposedly
was the father of the girl the drugstore owner - Wade Morrison
- was in love with.
Dr. Pepper was introduced to millions at the St..Louis
World Fair of 1904, where it was a huge success.
Rumours abound that Dr. Pepper is a Coke™ or
Pepsi™ product. Not true. It was solely owned until 1986
when it merged with the Seven-Up™. These were both acquired
by Cadbury Schweppes in 1995.
The known ingredients are: Carbonated Water, High
Fructose Corn Syrup and/or Sugar, Caramel Color, Phosphoric Acid,
Artificial and Natural Flavors Sodium Benzoate (Preservative),
Caffeine
Nutrition Facts:
150 Calories
55mg Sodium
40g Sugar
Obviously the actual spices and flavourings are a
secret..but notice they list artificial first? That's because there
are more artificial one than natural.
To look at the rest of the ingredients, I really
can't image why anyone would drink this or any other soda. 40 grams
of sugar???? That's abouu 10 - 11 teaspoons...would you actually
sit down and eat that much sugar from a bowl? Of course not..but
you do when you drink these chemical cocktails.
And the artifically sweetened ones...don't get me started!
Caramel colour has been associated with all kinds
of health problems including lowering of sperm count in men...lovely....
So, armed with more information, I have made the
child who asked the question and his parents aware of the negative
aspects of this and other sodas..in hopes of encouraging the change
of habits to organic juice, cut with a good quality water..in the
name of health, nutrition and longevity of our kids.
Children's Corner
Homeopathic Treatment for Children
Geri's acquaintance with homeopathic medicine begins
when it
saved her son from a continuous illness. When he was 21 months
old, he caught a cold, had a bad infection and irremediable
cough. Despite the antibiotics, syrups and pills she bought, the
worried mother could not cure her child.
The immune system of
the boy had apparently been severely injured and his body was
unable to fight off the sickness.
Then Geri heard of a
pediatrician who specialised in homeopathic medicine. The
natural products he prescribed strengthened the immune system of
her son and the vicious circle of illnesses was broken.
Ever
since then, she cannot recall an instance when alternative
medicine has not helped. Her family supports her and they all
trust the effects of homeopathic medicine.

How To Treat Cat Fleas....and Dogs..
As the weather gets cooler, our companion animals
spend more and more time indoors. A natural consequence of this
is the problem of fleas, both on your beloved pet and on the furniture
and carpets.
The LAST thing you want to do is to douse them or
your household in toxic chemical flea treatments. So how to treat
cat fleas and dogs'..and save your household from infestation?
Only Natural Pet has a great solution. One that I
completely recommend. It can be used on any pet and throughout
your house and yard.
Only Natural Pet All-in-One
Flea Remedy is an odorless
powder that can be applied directly to the fur of a dog or cat
and sprinkled on your carpet, hardwood floors, baseboards, furniture,
and pet bedding. You can even sprinkle it in your lawn or garden
where your pets roam.
To stop the itching and aggravation of flea bites...so your poor pet doesn't scratch itself to a raw and bleeding point...I highly recommend FleaDerm. It's a completely natural and safe solution to heal the bite...stop the itch in its tracks and heal the animal's skin.
The best thing is that it's fine for people to use on their skin too, for bites of any kind...flea, black flies or mosquitoes!
What Do Flea Bites Look Like?
Good question...and here are my results:

Planetary Concerns
Non Toxic Flu Prevention and Treatment
I suppose the issue of the season is flu prevention
and non-toxic treatment for viral/bacterial infection.
As many of you know, we have been using the Dolisos
(now Boiron) Homeopathic Flu Prevention Programme for some years
now with great success.
We find that each year that people use it..they get
fewer and fewer colds/flu etc.
Dr. Boyd Haley is a world reknown chemist and head
of the Dept of Chemistry at the University of Kentucky. In his
own words.."the flu vaccine does not work"! And to make matters
worse..the vaccine contains mercury..a very significant neurotoxin.
