SIDE EFFECTS
SIDE EFFECTS
There is a form of disease running rampant throughout our country and the world. The good news is that it is curable, even preventable if we are wise enough to heed all the warnings.
First of all let me declare that I am neither a physician nor a pharmacist. I am a minister and therefore concerned about the health of our nation. I also have the pleasure and the responsibility of assisting people from all walks of life. At times I am the last person they talk to in this life. So, I do not take this reponsibility lightly. Praying with families, counseling with folks of all ages, and just "being there" are all part of my daily life. Therefore I am in th unique position of hearing about their ailments, symptoms and health problems too. What I have observed is that most people suffer from dizziness, lack of energy, sleeplessness, and appetite problems. (Some folks are always hungry, some have no appetite at all.) If they don't have a problem taking food in; there is a problem eliminating their food!
If you research the medicines that most of these folk are consuming as a daily ( sometimes twice a day) dosage you will find the same printed disclaimers on the bottle that you can hear on the TV promotions for the product many, (too many), times a day. You know the line that starts, "side effects may be........." It is somewhat like the person whose finger hurt until they cut it off!
We, as a nation, are suffering from SIDE EFFECTS. I read flyers that arrive almost daily in the mail (unwanted junk mail I just can't seem to get rid of) promoting in bold letters, "ARE YOU TIRED? DO YOU HAVE DIFFICULTY HEARING? DO YOU HAVE TROUBLE GOING TO SLEEP? ARE YOU DIZZY? DO YOU HAVE LOSS OF APPETITE? DO YOU GET UP TEN TIMES AT NIGHT TO GO TO THE BATHROOM? etc. OUR MIRACLE HERB, PILL OR LIQUID WILL CURE YOU!" It is offered, along with your credit card, absolutely FREE for the first seven or ten days...then you are automatically signed up for months of payments unless you jump through hoops to cancel within a very narrow time frame of escape from this ploy.
Guess what? If you are over fifty or sixty you can probably relate to any one of the many symptoms the media shoves in your face every day. It is a natural result of aging, particularly if you have not taken care of your wonderful human machine we call our body for much of that time. It isn't too late! There are still forms of exercise and diet that will preserve your life span and health. If you have trouble sleeping you might look into your work or exercise habits, maybe even drinking too much coffee or watching the wrong late-night movie on TV. Then again, you just might check your medicine cabinet and find out just which of your medications could be fighting each other inside your body.
Medicine has made wondrous progress in the past fifty years. There is a PILL for almost everything. My advice in most cases is to talk with your doctor about the new disease, "SIDE EFFECTS." Check into the hundreds of preservatives and additives in the foods we buy and eat without the slightest idea of their effect on our body and use common sense to be aware of what an excess of anything put into your body can do if you just plain don't know.
I wish you health in the coming years (we sure might not have wealth) and happiness beyond belief.

Good evening. Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong.
I am from Argentina and learning to speak English, please tell me right I wrote the following sentence: "Directory of airline tickets in the yellow pages."

Which is that disease running rampant throughout our country and the world?

You bring up some great points here; points that I agree with in many respects. In a way, our medicine is counter intuitive at times in that there seems to be tons of different things that can go wrong by taking different medications or even just one type of medication for that matter.
I also think that our society's desire to look for miracle solutions in the form of supplements, pills, and so on, has pushed us all into a nasty cycle of looking anywhere but where it matters. As you allude to here, I think what matters are the basics; exercise, an effort to eat healthy, and taking care of our bodies in general. Yes, there are supplements out there that can give people some of the solutions they are looking for, but there is absolutely no push button solution in this respect. Unfortunately, I don't see this school of thought ever going away which is the exact reason these types of products exist; there are tons of people out there willing to by them.
In the end, it honestly does take work on the individuals part to get healthier. And this is what people need to understand if they want to make genuine progress when it comes to getting healthy.

It is not until your in your 30's that you understand all the BS you went through in earlier years and you STILL deal with the side effects! TRUST ME!!! I am 36 and i KNOW!!!! I love Mariah! The song writer did put some urban swing to her songs and that is just to capture the younger urban crowd-not dumbing down. I know plenty ATL iens that are educated and still say -"FOLKS".

It's definitely not a walk in the park, and certainly no picnic. Chemotherapy is capable of causing side effects that can really derail you for a while. Here are some strategies, though, to help you overcome some of the gastrointestinal (GI) side effects you may experience.
1. Eat small meals. Rather than 3 large meals, try 6 smaller ones--sort of like grazing all day. Avoid skipping meals as well. Within 2 hours before you are to get chemo, eat a light meal.
2. Eat what you like. This might sound dumb but trying to choke down some food that you used to love and now can't abide isn't logical. Avoid foods, however, that are high in fat, greasy, or overly sweet.
3. Cook and freeze meals ahead of time. Even better, get friends and neighbors to cook for you and put meals in your freezer.
