Confronting pain, strain, crud and bugs. Naturally.
A couple nights ago, I woke up at 2:00 a.m. with my eyes sealed shut. Sealed shut with gunk. I can’t remember when that had happened to me, if ever. It had come several days after returning from a trip to Florida, on a bus, with high school marching band students. (see earlier post). So [...]
I attended two presentations in the past two days on “cloud computing.” I was slightly out of place; a nutrition and health communicator wedged into a swarm of IT geeks and computer engineering professors and researchers. But I wanted to learn because my blogging, my health social network building and other communications applications are all [...]
About 10 years ago I bought my wife a couple of small trees for Mother’s day that she planted in a couple of raised gardens in our back yard. They looked so nice at the garden center where I bought them. Their leaves were tropical-looking, kind of like palm leaves. I thought a palm-like plant [...]
…and emerged victorious (knock on wood…that hasn’t been disinfected by anti-bacterial wipes). If I were gonna get hammered by the winter crud, it would have been now. Two people in my office have been hacking and wheezing for the past 3 weeks. And on top of that, I was at a Tweet Up gathering in [...]
Well I’ve been out snowblowing the driveway at 5:30 in the morning more times during this Iowa winter than Governor Blagojevich has been to his hair stylist. It’s been snowy and dang cold here (my apologies to the state tourism bureaucrats). So how’s the “germ environment” in our house? Well, one of my daughters is home [...]
Here’s the latest episode in the chronicle of my personal health experience while taking an immune balancing supplement with the EpiCor fermentate ingredient.
Over the weekend (2 days ago) I started getting that “throaty feeling.” You know, where your throat starts feeling a bit swollen and a little further down, that scratchy, coughy sensation sets in. In [...]
It began with my daughter getting a severe sore throat last week, taking her to the doc and finding no strep. As always, this is going around school, especially now that outdoor temps are starting to cool and we’re deep into fall. Doc just said keep drinking fluids and make sure it doesn’t evolve into [...]
Well, I’ve continued to endure the fall allergy season with nary a symptom. Dont’ get me wrong, I’ll still have a sneeze from time to time. But morning and evening breathing is all clear, itching is next to non-existent, and I have yet to take an over-the-counter allergy pill (Claritin, Zyrtec) since early August.
I got [...]
This is my first post about my personal experience in trying to attain immune balance. I have been interested in how this goes because I’m a life-long hay fever sufferer, especially in late August and September when corn and ragweed pollen counts are off the charts around here.
I began in Feb. 08 with a 500 [...]
