It Sucks Being Sick ... home remedies?

I have had a terrible cold/possible edge of the flu for about a week now, and although things "seem" to be getting better, they aren't really. Anyone have any home remedies that you have if/when you get sick?  I'm all out of things here and there that I know of.  I am even on extra Flonase (nasal spray) and double the QVAR inhaler dose so I can breathe ok. Thanks in advance. Melissa.

More Alzheimer's ahead

Majority of people today have "Smartphones" to their tasks anytime, anywhere.  It is so convinient that they can't live without it.  But have you thought about what will happen down the long-run? more people will suffer from Alzheimer's because of lack of brain activity because hand & fingers become less active. Let's compare lifestyles in the 70s, 80s, even 90s to today.  We used to write things down to record phone #s, balance the checkbook,...

hollywood beauties

Really!!  Do you rreally think they are beautiful?  Come on Doctors.  They are NOT naturally beautiful.  What a disapointment.  No beauty tips other than to go under the KNIFE.  Maybe because you have a Plastic Surgeon on board you thought this was a good idea.  Did you look at them (with the exception of J. Bissett) they look like mannequins.  Diane Cannon was scarey looking!!  I would not use chamomile tea if I'm going to...

Are Real Blueberries used in food?

I got something in the mail from Consumer Reports talking about how most foods with blueberries do NOT contain REAL bluberries.  They are really bits of sugar, hydrogenated oil, artifical flavors, and food dyes.  Here are the details: http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazine/2012/12/fruit-fiction-is-it-blueberry-or-blue-dye/index.htm http://articles.latimes.com/2011/jan/20/news/la-heb-fake-blueberries-20110120 Melissa.

Gatorade is under investigation?

People who have an active lifestyle probably drink "gatorade" or "powerade" as they do their daily exercises or workouts.  And many of us have drank or still drink gatorade or powerade during hot summer months due to losing fluids.  Today, I found this article and makes me wonder: wait a minute? really? (Gatorade is from PepsiCo and Powerade is from Coca-Cola) http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2012-11-30/business/chi-gatorade-ingredient-under-scrutiny-20121130_1_gatorade-vegetable-oil-ingredient (Gatorade ingredient under scrutiny)   (Petition at Change.org asking Gatorade to remove brominated vegetable...

THE DOCTORS REVEAL THE TRUTH

Today, as I usually do, I watched the Doctors TV Show. This Show has been so informative for so many of us viewers. However today (1/23/13) they gave the best truth and hope for all of us to know. They pointed out what I've always wondered about and asked over and over but was never given an answer:   WHY DOES OUR HEALTHCARE COST SO MUCH!?   The problem is not the cost of the...

I'm Losing The Battle

I haven't been on here in a long time. I was praying my team was going to find an inpatient treatment center for me, but the reality is there isn't any where for me to go. My insurance just won't pay for it. I had to give my team the job of finding a place for me because all the rejections were triggering even more eating disorder behaviors. I'm not doing well. I just had...

Plastic Surgery in the OC

How to never get sick, not even the flu, continued!

First of all, I wanted to say KUDOS to The Doctors, on this past Monday's show, "If It's Not the Flu, What Is It?"  They have improved from previous shows!  They stressed the importance of not taking antibiotics for the common cold, not requesting antibiotics from your doctor for willy nilly, and making sure a bacteria culture comes back positive for things like a sinus infection before the doctor prescribes antibiotics.  In my last blog about antibiotics,...

How to NEVER get sick...even the flu...what doctors don't even know or stress

There are two schools of thought when it comes to viruses and bacteria and how to fight them.  The first school of thought is that viruses and bacteria infect us and there's nothing we can do about it except wash our hands, avoid people when they are sick, and avoid touching our eyes, nose, and mouth after touching public surfaces, etc.  The second school of thought is that we have always been surrounded by viruses and...
