I don't watch much television anymore, but yesterday I also
saw an episode of (Dr. Oz) .... my parents watch Dr. Oz and
I go to their house. Among the guests were a couple of
women who 'the experts' said were lacking some sort of
feelings of self-worth, and advised things such as
screaming; and self-talk, and ... all of these external
things. What I saw in the two women
was a lack of anything substantial in their 'spiritual
make-up'. No foundation to them. I'm certain now, that
they no doubt have no mineral foundation; however, those women and I
believe our country; and our world - lack a spiritual
foundation.
This is quite a step but I'll take it. The family foundation
has been rocked; but as to the talk of what constitutes a
family; as in, marriage among the same sex: no doubt any family foundation
would be something that could change our world. The family
indeed has been lost; why negate or undermine the existance and goodness of any family unit. Whether in a
marriage union, or 'friends living together' - the way that some
people find family.
Family isn't always and maybe not usually found among blood
lines - or through marriage. We need structure, we need
love in our lives. True concern and caring for one
anothers' welfare. And we need spiritual roots. A firm
bedrock of God in our lives.

...human body possesses amazing healing powers...
The human body possesses amazing healing powers that enable it to bounce back from a vast array of illhttp://www.yourhealthandtechfriend.com/disease_is_reversible.htmnesses and injuries. Sometimes broken bones can heal so thoroughly within a few months that even an x-ray can't determine the original fracture line.
Doctors often play a vital, sometimes lifesaving, role in a bone's healing process. But, these experts basically help the body heal itself. Doctors provide optimal conditions for bone repair and healing to take place. The rest is up to your cells. ....

Cough that won't go away - April 2, 2012
We take liquid minerals (angstrom sized) in our home for health maintenance, and for fighting flu and cold. My daughter and husband have the most recent 'flu/cold' (the cough that won't go away.) We don't use traditional medicine in our home to the extent that we can avoid it. [I have a web page on my attempt to rid myself of this flu/cold on my website, Your Health And Tech Friend on a page I titled: Yikes! I've got a cold. I didn't do well, I'm still learning the proper use of minerals.] Last night, I'd just gotten to bed, and our daughter began to cough. I'd given her some minerals just before bed but she was coughing again. I got out the bottle of liquid copper, and brought her about a half ounce in a glass of 'angstrom sized' liquid copper. After drinking it, maybe 5 minutes later she coughed again... (I was tired, I thought "oh, maybe it won't do it.") But that was it, she fell asleep. She slept through the night. That was approx. 10:30pm (4/1/12) it is now 8:15 a.m. (4/2/12) and she is not coughing and she is sleeping in. My 16 year old daughter and husband have been battling this cough/throat congestion for two weeks. Family members who have this cough, and have gone to doctors, have been given antibiotics (just this past two weeks,) and it has not helped the cough. This seems to be a virus, which is not stopped by antibiotics. That was why we knew we would not receive help from a trip to the doctors. We've been using colloidal silver, colloidal zinc and colloidal copper; alternating the use of these. We are in the northeastern part of Ohio with family in near southern ohio.
Now, liquid minerals have antiviral and antibacterial properties. Just as some herbs, such as oragano have antiviral, so do minerals, of course colloidal silver does. I got online this morning and requested if (some viruses respond better to certain minerals rather than others... i.e. copper than zinc, or silver; I looked up whether some minerals resist certain bacteria better than other minerals.) I found the article below (from Wikipedia.)
Note: copper was the last thing she had at 10:30 last night. If you read the items below, I've highlighted the part(s) that are most understandable to the layman's eye, it looks as if copper "has the ability to destroy" certain bacteria/strains of microbes... ' such as the influenza A virus, adenovirus, fungi, staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), staphylococcus, clostridium difficile..'. some of those are easy to recognise and are familiar, I've not heard of clostridium difficile, but I think it is something common. Yes, (It is a common virus rivelling MRSA as a hospital-acquired infection.)

P.S. I think colloidal copper is the answer to this current strain of virus!

P.P.S. I believe that foods high in copper, zinc and other minerals would be highly beneficial in staying healthy or in regaining health.
P.P.P.S. I've had diarrhea myself since yesterday (this is now 2:30 pm) I've taken the liquid copper, several times; about a tablespoon at a time, and it is under control. My daughter is feeling better; no cough; resting her voice, as it had become laryngitis. I'll update this entry soon.
From Wikipedia...
"...Copper alloy surfaces have
intrinsic properties to destroy a wide range of microorganisms. In the interest of protecting public health, especially in heathcare environments with their susceptible patient populations, an abundance of peer-reviewed antimicrobial efficacy studies have been conducted in the past 10 years regarding copper’s efficacy to destroy E. coli O157:H7, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Staphylococcus, Clostridium difficile, influenza A virus, adenovirus, and fungi.[22] Stainless steel was also investigated since it is such an important surface material in today’s healthcare environments. The studies cited here, plus others directed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, resulted in the 2008 registration of 274 different copper alloys as certified antimicrobial materials that have public health benefits."....
-------------------------
"...Clostridium difficile, an anaerobic bacterium, is a major cause of potentially life-threatening disease, including nosocomial diarrheal infections, especially in developed countries.[35] C. difficile endospores can survive for up to five months on surfaces.[36] The pathogen is frequently transmitted by the hands of healthcare workers in hospital environments. C. difficile is currently a leading hospital-acquired infection in the UK,[37] and rivals MRSA as the most common organism to cause hospital acquired infections in the US[38] It is responsible for a series of intestinal health complications, often referred to collectively as Clostridium difficile Associated Disease (CDAD).
The antimicrobial efficacy of various copper alloys against Clostridium difficile was recently evaluated.[39] The viability of C. difficile spores and vegetative cells were studied on copper alloys C11000 (99.9% copper), C51000 (95% copper), C70600 (90% copper), C26000 (70% copper), and C75200 (65% copper). Stainless steel (S30400) was used as the experimental control. The copper alloys significantly reduced the viability of both C. difficile spores and vegetative cells. On C75200, near total kill was observed after one hour. On C11000, near total kill was observed after 3 hours. On C70600, near total kill was observed after 5 hours. On C26000, near total kill was achieved after 48 hours. On stainless steel, no reductions in viable organisms were observed after 72 hours (3 days) of exposure and no significant reduction was observed within 168 hours (1 week).
Main article: Influenza A virus
Influenza, commonly known as flu, is an infectious disease from a viral pathogen different from the one that produces the common cold. Symptoms of influenza, which are much more severe than the common cold, include fever, sore throat, muscle pains, severe headache, coughing, weakness and general discomfort. Influenza can cause pneumonia, which can be fatal, particularly in young children and the elderly.
After incubation for one hour on copper, active influenza A virus particles were reduced by 75%.[40][41] After six hours, the particles were reduced on copper by 99.999%. Influenza A virus was found to survive in large numbers on stainless steel.
Once surfaces are contaminated with virus particles, fingers can transfer particles to up to seven other clean surfaces.[42] Because of copper’s ability to destroy influenza A virus particles, copper can help to prevent cross-contamination of this viral pathogen.
Main article: Adenoviridae
Adenovirus is a group of viruses that infect the tissue lining membranes of the respiratory and urinary tracts, eyes, and intestines. Adenoviruses account for about 10% of acute respiratory infections in children. These viruses are a frequent cause of diarrhea.
In a recent study, 75% of adenovirus particles were inactivated on copper (C11000) within 1 hour. Within six hours, 99.999% of the adenovirus particles were inactivated. Within six hours, 50% of the infectious adenovirus particles survived on stainless steel.[41]
The antifungal efficacy of copper was compared to aluminium on the following organisms that can cause human infections: Aspergillus spp., Fusarium spp., Penicillium chrysogenum, Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans.[43] An increased die-off of fungal spores was found on copper surfaces compared with aluminium. Aspergillus niger growth occurred on the aluminium coupons; growth was inhibited on and around copper coupons...."...
-------------------------------
"...Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a dangerous bacteria strain because it is resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics.[30][31] Recent strains of the bacteria, EMRSA-15 and EMRSA-16, are highly transmissible and durable. This is of extreme importance to those concerned with reducing the incidence of hospital-acquired MRSA infections.
In 2008, after evaluating a wide body of research mandated specifically by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), registration approvals were granted by EPA in 2008 granting that copper alloys kill more than 99.9% of MRSA within two hours.
Subsequent research conducted at the University of Southampton (UK) compared the antimicrobial efficacies of copper and several non-copper proprietary coating products to kill MRSA.[32][33] At 20 °C, the drop-off in MRSA organisms on copper alloy C11000 is dramatic and almost complete (over 99.9% kill rate) within 75 minutes. However, neither a triclosan-based product nor two silver-containing based antimicrobial treatments (Ag-A and Ag-B) exhibited any meaningful efficacy against MRSA. Stainless steel S30400 did not exhibit any antimicrobial efficacy.
In 2004, the University of Southampton research team was the first to clearly demonstrate that copper inhibits MRSA.[34] On copper alloys — C19700 (99% copper), C24000 (80% copper), and C77000 (55% copper) — significant reductions in viability were achieved at room temperatures after 1.5 hours, 3.0 hours and 4.5 hours, respectively. Faster antimicrobial efficacies were associated with higher copper alloy content. Stainless steel did not exhibit any bactericidal benefits."...

My Day Today - Your Health And Tech Friend
Today I'm at home and I'm happy about that. I'm crochetting a baby blanket for a niece who will be having a baby soon. Her shower is in about one week and it is almost done. I have the yarn purchased for another baby that is already here; a friend of my daughter's, mom, had her - get this, 6th baby! Wow, now that's an old fashioned family, huh?
We won't be seeing them for a few weeks, or two months, so that blanket will be next. It's relaxing to crochette but seems a little selfish to me, taking out the time to do it. But it does save on money for a baby gift and the 'home made' blanket thing is a valuable gift these days... so that gives me 'reason' to accept taking out the time to do it.
Women today still have guilt I know, just being a mom creates reason or situations for guilt. Much has changed for women in the world, but some things haven't. I have a small amount of guilt. I try and work what i call, a spiritual program... so that gives me 'tools' to work with in my life. Like turning things over to God; accepting things that I cannot change; trying the regular tools of thinking, like the common sense stuff that says that I can't do it all. Another great thing can be just a saying that came to me lately, "I can only please 3 persons today and you're not one of them." Or, try and please everyone and no one is pleased - please yourself and at least someone is pleased.
Well, that is where I am today. Bye for now....

Leaky Gut Syndrome...or raw food diet for dogs...hmmm.
Today it was a toss up, to talk about my pet's health, she didn't want to eat - she's on a 'raw-food diet since November; today she didn't want to eat, and she threw up some stomach acid; or to talk about 'leaky gut syndrome' (in humans), or... I don't remember the third thing. I believe I'll tackle the leaky gut next. There is so much more today to 'concern ourselves' with than there was when I was a kid... or when I was 28. I believe around 28... the 1980's things began to get complicated. Like on the news, I believe it was lettuce that year, which was believed to cause cancer. And it just proliferated from there. Soon we all knew that 'everything caused cancer.' Goodnight for now, Conny P.S. Oh yes... look to www.yourhealthandtechfriend.com for the latest, possibly 'leaky gut syndrome.'
