Surviving un-insurance

Have you had a chance to read this article? If you haven't, read it, then come back. If seeing Michael Moore's Sicko hasn't convinced you, (and I'm still in touch with reality to know that there's a good number of you out there), then I'm sure this will help you see that there's a health care crisis. Unfortunately, we're going to have to wait until we get past the current economic crisis for our good friends in Washington to start considering H.R. 676 again, so how do we handle the situation in the meantime?

That's where self-education comes in. And self-care.

1) Maintain your weight. Learn the right way to eat and exercise to keep your energy up so your body can fight disease and get done what you need to get done.

2) Antioxidants - they do a great job of overcoming environmental factors. They can overcome allergy and cold symptoms and help you heal from injuries faster.

3) Vitamin supplements. The FDA will insist that they don't cure or treat illness, but they can still do a lot, and then let your body do the rest. Your body can actually do a lot when it has the right help. But make sure it's the right help.

Hopefully, this will help you need the doctor less often. Otherwise, write me back, let me know what specific problems you're having, and I'll see if I can solve them for you.
