The Swine Flu Pandemic is sweeping the world and people are scared and frightened. People need to find alternative ways to prevent and combat this flu and all other illness sweeping to days world. With this in mind I would suggest trying Aromatherapy. Old fashion Essential Oil Blends, which have been using for many hundreds of years, are a fantastic way to help combat flu's, illnesses and injuries.

In the history of essential oil you will find that they were used as perfume, food flavoring, deodorant, a pharmaceutical or as an embalming antiseptic and the impure and diluted extracts are oftentimes used as oils or creams because of the science of smell. The history of this reaches back throughout time to the period of ancient Rome, Greece and Egypt, to the today's technology of the 20th century. With today's technology which allows chemicals to be separated and used as a building block to introduce particular flavors and aromas into a product the way we are able to use essential oils in the uses of aromatherapy have no limits or boundaries.

When using essential oils for the uses with aromatherapy you can also have an environmentally friendly household, you would be able to environmentally friendly clean your home and not only do your bit with the environment you would be also helping with the health of your family. Remedies natural, verses remedies that have chemicals in them, you really can see the difference in the benefits.

When looking to purchase essential oils for uses with Aromatherapy you need to make sure you are getting 100% pure essential oil, because there are many companies selling essential oils today, that their oil are not pure oil and are no way 100% pure essential oil. Although these oils are being sold cheaper and you think you are getting a bargain, in fact you are not getting any benefit out of using these oils what so ever.

Also when you are searching for companies to purchase your essential oil make sure that they offer information on their products and a large range of different blends and what their benefits are. They should also have a range of books, Aromatherapy Cabinets, Aromatherapy Diffusers, Aromatherapy Gift Packs, Vibrational Sprays and Air Fresheners to choose from plus the information that goes along with their products.

You must, when purchasing Essential Oils make sure that they are 100% Pure Essential Oil, for the benefits of Aromatherapy to be effective, purchasing any thing less will not be effective.

Media Alarm - Internal Alert

It is fascinating to me that the word "epidemic" doesn't exist anymore! We have gone from a few hundred cases worldwide to the word "PANdemic". In our soundbyte surrounded, prepackaged points of view, talking head dominated - modern world, we just go straight to PANDEMIC. Do not pass go, do not pass symptoms, do not check your own temperature, just lets everybody go to PANDEMIC. Oh, good, now there is something for us all to go in a frenzy over. Media gets ratings fever. Something to talk about for a few days. Meanwhile is anybody sick?

H1N1

Oh by the way, people get flu all the time, and some of us die over it. But H1N1 is a special flu, so let's not get confused. We are talking about H1N1. And what about it? Its a flu like others and some people die, just like some people die from other flus. But this is passing from HUMAN TO HUMAN. Well, since most Americans don't go around kissing pigs, or washing them, or feeding them, I guess a flu that passes from human to human is worthy of some coverage, but this DRUNKEN UNCLE MEDIA COVERAGE is ridiculous.

In 1918, 50 million people died from a worldwide flu. Now that was worthy of coverage, but alas we didn't have TV and 24 hour coverage then, so what did we do? We dealt with it in the only way we could deal with it at the time.

IF, and that's IF we get a REAL PANDEMIC in the future, will one TV reporter do an ounce of good? No. They will be bug-eyed covering the tragedy from a distance and throwing their hands in their air over some lack of government foresight or oversight or farsight. But a reporter or media person will not help out one bit. If in some apocalyptic willd scenario however, I can visualize them in helicopters taking pictures of mass burials.

The media can push our fear buttons because this PANDEMIC, which does not exist yet, is CLASSICAL for our times. Why? Because it is really scary to a normal human being!

Gets You Where You Live - "It Takes Your Breath Away".

When Joe Biden said "I just wouldn't be in any confied places..." in all of his verbal excess, he was exhibiting a plainly held human concern --- "What the, what am I going to do? If its in the air, what am I going to do?"

When you talk about diseases being transmitted through the air, it tends to get the normal "walking around" way that we live --- us human bi-peds --- it gets us where we live. We are bi-peds. We got those long legs so we can up and skidaddle and move to another village where people aren't dropping like flies because of the air they are breathing.

This is elemental visceral stuff! Don't touch someone. We get that! But DONT BREATHE? That "takes your breath away".

"Come Back With A Fury in the Fall" -

During one of these frenzies, we short attention span people are hearing that it "could subside and then come back with a fury in the fall." Hold it. You mean after the 72 hour new cycle passes, it still might be with us? What will the media maniacs do with that?

What the CDC and WHO will tell you is that a pandemic is just a matter of when, not if -- and the earthquake experts in Golden, Colorado will tell you the same with earthquakes, so too with the earth annhilating asteroid. Its just that the "WHEN CLOCK " is set on different time periods -- years, decades, centuries. So, if you choose to be paranoid, apocalyptic and overwhelmingly OCD, you can be in a overarching state of fear about something literally ALL the time.

2012 -

If you want to be in a permanent state of anticipation for the next 3 years, you can just believe that 2012 is going to be the time of great calamity of some sort -- Sun spots, earth turning over on the poles, or just crazy WWIII bombs flying all over everywhere. Pick one or more and you can be a TWENTY-TWELVER. I know several like this. Its really all they can talk about. Its as if a sweet joyful tickly comes up their leg, like an Obama fan getting a jolly, its just that they are contemplating the end of the world. And so into our apocalyptic, frenzied, overcommunicating world comes along Swine Flu.

If You Want to Protect Yourself -

If you want to protect yourself, you can go ahead and do everything that everyone is recommending, and then think LONG TERM CONTINUING SOLUTIONS - TAKE KIEFER, KOMBUCHA, LIMU!

Today's term is PROBIOTICS. And that's a good term. It means FOR LIFE - Stuff that makes "good bugs in your bod". What science has learned is the the "flora and fauna" of your intestinal tract is a highly variable world full of millions of micro bacteria. The balance of that microflora determines health. And since 80% of your immune system is in your intestinal tract, it has much to do with YOUR ABILITY TO FIGHT OFF BAD BACTERIA AND BAD VIRUSES. Swine Flu can be killed by a healthy immune system. For heaven's sakes, its not the Black Plague, dropping people with purple buboles, as they expire in mid-sentence.

Remember the last time you had a horrible intestinal upset. Think: "BAD microflora". At any rate, if we move back in time, we can see that people have been benefitting from positive microflora at many points in history, even back, legend has it - to prehistory and myth times. There is a "mushroom" like substance that is used in Asian health drinks called KOMBUCHA. I won't speak of that now, but cultural history is spotted with foods and teas and drinks that basically perform the function of directly working with your intestinal microflora. Kiefer is a SUPER YOGURT that recolonizes your intestinal tract with the best of good bacteria. KOMBUCHA is a tea based upon the same fascinating "mushrooms". And Limu is a seaweed from the Sea (specifically the Island of Tonga) that is an immune system strengthener.

Fucoidan's Power Against Infection -

Fucoidan is the special substance inside of Limu. Limu is a seaweed drink. Science has shown that it can be effective bolstering immunity against disease. French researchers have focused on limu's production of interleukin and interferon, two potent immune enhancers, and suggest this may be why it is such a potent anti-tumor agent and generally protective for the human system against infection.

Researchers Have Discovered that Limu: Bolsters the immune system (Source: E.A. Sweeney et al.; S.D. Somers et al.; I.Sugawara et al.; V. Ooi et al.).

FUCOIDAN boosts the immune system to help the body fight infection. Immunotherapy - Using the body's own immune system to fight cancer is forming the basis for some of the latest cancer treatments. FUCOIDAN'S ability to stimulate the immune system has been proven in studies throughout the world. So take a PREVENTIVE APPROACH. Take a Proactive Stance Against Cancer - Enjoy a Nutritious Diet - including Limu. - Avoid Smoking - Maintain a Healthy Weight through Diet and Exercise - Consume Alcohol in moderation - Wear sunscreen - Avoid Exposure to Pollutants and Toxins.

Limu and Fucoidan - Limu is brown seaweed hailed by the natives along the South Pacific coast of Tonga as an essential part of their health. In fact, the Tongans have long regarded limu ass a treasure from the sea for over 3,000 years! Science is now finding out why - limu's fucoidan. DID YOU KNOW? Limu retains minerals and nutrients from the sea in colloidal form. COLLOIDAL means the vitamins and minerals are suspended in liquid, making them easily absorbed and quickly utilized by the human body. The average Western diet is critically deficient in many naturally-occurring vitamins and minerals reducing the optimal functioning of the body's organs and immune system. Our ability to recover from illness and disease is also undermined by our inadequate diet. Limu helps fill these nutritional gaps and is important remedy for wellness.

Some Little Bug Is Going To Find You Someday -

The above information is given to get you NOT to think about accidentally BREATHING in at the wrong moment -- but to get you to ask the MUCH bigger question - AM I DOING EVERYTHING I CAN ON A DAILY BASIS TO PROTECT MY ENTIRE BODY AGAINST INFECTION? Bugs flying around in the open air is just another threat to your immune system. There is an old song that my father used to sing from a play. Its DARK HUMOR. It is not funny hahaha. It is ironic and makes you nod your head at the human condition, and perhaps give you just a bit of perspective on our human plight. We are all grown up here aren't we? Like I told a Twenty Twelver. "What you have told me is SOOO overwhelming, I am not going to worry about any of your stuff. I am just going to live my daily life as best I can. Sorry if that disappoints you." And I say the same to all of the PANDEMIC MANIACS. Here it is. Apologies to all of you who are up in arms. "Some little bug is going to get you some day. Some little bug is going to find you someday. Then he'll get all of his bug friends.....all your earthly troubles end --- some little bug is going to find you someday."

HAPPY KIEFER, LIMU AND KOMBUCHA COCKTAILS, TO YOU!
