About Me

My younger sister was born in 1958, and my mother died of cancer later in that same year. Unfortunately, before she died, she was still breastfeeding me once a day and topping up with water for the remainder. I almost died of malnutrition and pneumonia - and so became the first infant on which the then new tetracyline drugs were used. Due to my fragile health status, flu vaccinations for our new family were 'neccessary' for most of my younger years. Mum 2 was hugely into the latest healthy fads and we all suffered accordingly.

I blame the substitution of butter and lard with margerine and PUFA's for many of my current health woes, including MS.

In the mid 1970's I briefly entered the nursing profession in one of the 'new' DipN university courses (and-of course - had to have ALL vaccinations up to date), but then worked at the Australian Taxation Office for around 26 years.

In the 1980's but after the birth of my own daughter my viewpoint of the implications on health of food choices were changed enormously when I chanced to read 'Food for Vitality' by Jonathan S Christie, and like my second Mum, I endeavoured to become more pro-active in my own health. My daughter's nutrients during my pregnancy were less than ideal and I suffered hugely with retained fluid and heartburn. The next generation has now arrived, so my 'hobby' of better health through nutrition has intensified.

I am an Anti Aging specialist in America.  I know you can't come here to see me, but perhaps there is an Anti Aging physician in Australia you can see.  I recommend the American Academy of Anti Aging's website (www.worldhealth.net) to see where the closest Anti Aging Physician is to you.

Of course without a complete history, physical and appropriate labs, I can't diagnose or recommend specific treatments for you, but there is   There is much that can be done to detoxify the body against many toxins. 

Furthermore, there is solid evidence of the role of Vitamin D in preventing many maladies such as Multiple Sclerosis. (which you had listed as one of your diagnoses)  Keeping Vitamin D levels optimal increases the chance of MS treatment producing a remission among MANY other health benefits.  (Optimal is measured as Vitamin D, 25-hydroxy level, and should be roughly 70-100).  I have a website that explains many of the all-natural hormones (if appropriate) and some of the nutrients used in Anti Aging Medicine to make you healthier!  It's address is: http://www.thecarltonclinic.com/.  Specifically, the Vitamin D page is http://www.thecarltonclinic.com/hormones/vitamin-d (Yes, Vitamin D functions as a hormone as well as a vitamin.)

I'm not sure why Heather Marsh requested me as a Mercola Friend, or exactly what that involves, but I don't have any objection, so yeah, fine.  Let me know what's up.  Thanks.

Wish I could email you instead of posting.  One question:  Do you make your own Kefir?  If so, where did you get your starter kit/'beans'?   We want to start making it and could probably make it a science activity for my kids.

 

Thanks,

Hi,

 

Could you give me the exact recipe you use for making bread, as you said in your post?  We have made our own bread, but differently than you do (many ways, I know).  Yours sounds good and I would like to try it.

 

Thanks

MS and advanced mercury toxicity symptoms are so similar that at least in some cases they may very well be one-and-the-same condition.  There are heavy-metal screens available, and among other things chelation therapy.  Even high-sulphur foods such as allium-family bulbs (garlic, onions, leeks, etc.) eggs & so forth should prove helpful with elimination, although foods alone are the slow road.  All possible good luck to you with it.
