I
just glanced at an article that was titled "Preparedness Is
Your Responsibility" and it made me think of the different
applications of this statement. The article was addressing catastrophic
disasters, but my mind went to the responsibility we all have to
ourselves of keeping our bodies prepared for a physical environment
that can pose many challenges. It is winter, and it is flu season,
and if that weren’t bad enough, we are plagued with mutating
super bugs and new strains of potentially deadly viruses.
It behooves us to prepare for these threats in our midst by taking
preventive measures to ensure a strong immune system. We can
prepare for environmental onslaughts in much the same way we would
for a national disaster; by maintaining our bodies in the best health
possible. Taking care of our health on a daily basis means having
a plan and sticking to it. It is important to eat fresh, healthy
foods and drink clean water, but we must also educate ourselves
about other natural options for a strong defense. We
must integrate preventive measures that will ensure us the best
possible stance when confronted with situations that could compromise
our health.
Our goal at Eidon is to offer the means to a healthy, balanced,
mineral foundation and also provide ongoing education so that we
humans can reach our highest potential. Staying healthy is multidimensional,
and there are many informational resources available. The Well
Being Journal is a publication I highly recommend along with
other resources found on our Website.

bypass that annoying automated voice
We have a website for those who feel their blood pressure rising
when the automated voice starts giving the first of many prompts
on the road to a human voice contact. Paul
English.com gives shortcuts to bypassing all the irritating
questions. Many, but not all major companies are listed catagorically.
Also,
if you have a cell phone, take note: On Feb. 5th 2006, all
cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies
and you will start to receive sales calls on your cell phone, which
you will be charged for... isn't that just lovely? To prevent this,
call the following number from your cell phone: 888-382-1222.
It is the National DO NOT CALL list. It will only take a minute
of your time. It blocks your number for five (5) years. You can
also do so by clicking on http://www.donotcall.gov
A new study at Yale University’s Prevention Research Center
has found a more justification for eating dark chocolate.
We have heard about the antioxidant benefit and the anti depression
benefit, now we are being told it can improve blood pressure as
well as having the ability to dilate blood vessels and increase
flow, a key factor in cardiovascular health. Did you know dark chocolate
is full of magnesium?
Acupuncture, long shunned by mainstream medicine but for centuries
considered the crown jewel of alternative therapy, is slowly gaining
ground in doctors' offices throughout the country. Although some
experts still question its effectiveness, studies in recent years
-- including one at Duke last fall -- have thrown scientific weight
behind its benefits. Full article posted on OrlandoSentinel/New
York Times.
Every Feb. 2 has a special significance for researchers at Cornell's
College of Veterinary Medicine, and it's not because scientists
think a sleepy rodent on Groundhog Day (which is today) can predict
winter's end. Rather, the groundhog (also known as the woodchuck)
is honored at Cornell for its indispensable contributions to the
study of liver disease in humans. For more than 15 years, animals
born at the world's only scientific source of disease-free woodchucks
have led researchers to discoveries in treatment and prevention
of hepatitis B infection and the liver cancer it can cause. Full

"Iodine:
The Universal Nutrient," by Guy E. Abraham, M.D.
In textbooks of medicine, endocrinology and thyroidology, the essential
element iodine is mentioned only in connection with the most severe
forms of deficiency of this nutrient: cretinism, iodine-deficiency
induced goiter and hypothyroidism. Many physicians would be surprised
to learn that more than a hundred years ago, iodine was called "The
Universal Medicine," and was used in several clinical conditions.
Until
next month...
Best of health to you, and yours...

IBS
and Magnesium - "We followed the elimination
diet to no avail and used everything from high dose
acidopholus to apple cider vinegar, vitamins and heart
rate variability breathing. While some things seemed
to help it did not eliminate the pain which was most
acute upon arising. . . one week later [he] feels as
though his IBS is nearly gone."
