What do they have in common? Well I was doing some researching today and found they And candidiasis may all be related.

Most people "know" herpes. They know it to be the sores, lesions, chicken pox, or shingles some unfortunate people get as a result of stress, infection, or other diseases. They think either you have herpes or you don't. They also know that, while herpes is no fun, in most cases, it's not a big deal either.
Most people are wrong. Dangerously wrong.
Up to 90% of the population carry the herpes virus--and have been from the age of 10 years or younger! The vast majority simply don't know it. In most people, the virus is dormant. But, that doesn't make it any less dangerous. Science is learning, with growing alarm, that the herpes virus is linked to an ever-growing list of very serious ailments. Some, you'd have never guessed.
For instance--heart attack. There's a growing body of evidence that a herpes virus called CMV triggers the clogging of your cardiac artery walls. 75% of all Americans over the age of 60 carry CMV with no observable symptoms.
Among other illnesses, various strains of the herpes virus have been shown to trigger rheumatoid arthritis, mononucleosis, chronic fatigue syndrome and Kaposi's sarcoma (a deadly type of skin cancer [related to HIV aids]).
The biggest problem, of course, is that herpes is a virus. By and large, medical science has no real answers to viruses of any kind.
This leaves most of us to go through our lives carrying the dormant virus like a time-bomb waiting to explode into shingles...rheumatoid arthritis... cancer...heart disease...or any one of the most lethal ailments inflicting our society today.
But, as frightening as the idea of a single uncontrollable culprit behind so many illnesses may be, there's a flip side:If there was something we could do about the herpes virus, we'd be eliminating a huge danger from our lives in one fell swoop!
The new Larrea compound was proven to be effective in a full 90% of the cases! This is an almost unheard of rate of effectiveness.
As time goes by, study cases just keep on piling high with success stories of amazing relief. What's more, the new compound is not only effective--it's also incredibly fast!
~~~
A woman suffering from recurrent oral herpes previously used acyclovir with only mixed results. After a single application of the Larrea preparation, lesions were completely healed within 12 hours--the pain and swelling were relieved immediately .
~~~
A male, 55 years of age, has herpes zoster (shingles) and possible candida yeast infection, which result in apparent skin rashes on the legs. The severity of pain reported before the use of LARREA was 7 on a scale of 1-10. Within 1 week the patient reported an improvement in pain severity to a level of 1. Lesions cleared within 24 hours.
~~~
A small study conducted in Philadelphia treated a number of patients with severe herpes simplex 1 and 2 and zoster (shingles) with both the Larrea preparation and capsules. The results? 100% success rate, usually within 24-48 hours! The clinicians also reported success using the lotion to avert impending outbreaks which are usually signaled by a tingling sensation.
Repeated tests showed that oral herpes outbreaks that last three to seven days were gone within 24 hours of the Larrea lotion application.
Shingles sufferers typically get complete relief within minutes!
Legend has it the Larrea tridentata, an ancient desert bush, was the first plant created in the world. True or not, the Larrea bush (known in the Southwest as the creosote bush or chaparral) is certainly a special plant with some truly amazing healing properties. Chief among these is its ability to make short work of such diverse afflictions as herpes (of any kind), rheumatoid arthritis, Kaposi's sarcoma, and shingles.

I found these sites where it can be purchased, I have no interest in either of these companies and will make nothing if you buy them, except I will be delighted if I can help someone renew their health.

~~~Jokes and Inspiration~~~
When a woman came through my cashier's line at Wal-Mart, her purchase came to twenty dollars. "That's what I had in my hand. You must be psychic," she joked.

"I am," I teased. "I knew exactly how much you wanted to spend."

The next customer stepped up and, looking at me with a big grin, pulled out a one-dollar bill.

The End is Near
A priest and pastor from the local parishes are standing by the side of the road holding up a sign that reads, "The End is Near! Turn yourself around now before it's too late!"

They planned to hold up the sign to each passing car.

"Leave us alone you religious nuts!" yelled the first driver as he sped by.

From around the curve they heard screeching tires and a big splash. "Do you think," said one clergy to the other, "we should just put up a sign that says 'Bridge Out' instead?"

Abbott and Costello meet Windows 95

Costello: Hey, Abbott!
Abbott: Yes, Lou?
Costello: I just got my first computer.
Abbott: That's great Lou. What did you get?
Costello: A Pentium II-266, with 40 Megs of RAM, a 2.1 Gig hard drive, and a 24X CD-ROM.
Abbott: That's terrific, Lou
Costello: But I don't know what any of it means!!
Abbott: You will in time.
Costello: That's exactly why I am here to see you.
Abbott: Oh?
Costello: I heard that you are a real computer expert.
Abbott: Well, I don't know-
Costello: Yes-sir-ee. You know your stuff. And you're going to train me.
Abbott: Really?
Costello: Uh huh. And I am here for my first lesson.
Abbott: O.K. Lou. What do you want to know?
Costello: I am having no problem turning it on, but I heard that you should be very careful how you turn it off.
Abbott: That's true.
Costello: So, here I am working on my new computer and I want to turn it off. What do I do?Abbott: Well, first you press the Start button, and then-
Costello: No, I told you, I want to turn it off.
Abbott: I know, you press the Start button-
Costello: Wait a second. I want to turn it off. Off. I know how to start it. So tell me what to do.
Abbott: I did.
Costello: When?
Abbott: When I told you to press the Start button.
Costello: Why should I press the Start button?
Abbott: To shut off the computer.
Costello: I press Start to stop.
Abbott: Well Start doesn't actually stop the computer.
Costello: I knew it! So what do I press.
Abbott: Start
Costello: Start what?
Abbott: Start button.
Costello: Start button to do what?
Abbott: Shut down.
Costello: You don't have to get rude!
Abbott: No, no, no! That's not what I meant.
Costello: Then say what you mean.
Abbott: To shut down the computer, press-
Costello: Don't say, "Start!"
Abbott: Then what do you want me to say?
Costello: Look, if I want to turn off the computer, I am willing to press the Stop button, the End button and Cease and Desist button, but no one in their right mind presses the Start to Stop.
Abbott: But that's what you do.
Costello: And you probably Go at Stop signs, and Stop at green lights.
Abbott: Don't be ridiculous.
Costello: I am being ridiculous? Well. I think it's about time we started this conversion.

Survivors

TOALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED the 1930's 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's !!

First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes. Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-based paints.

We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets…not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking.

As infants & children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, booster seats, seat belts or air bags. Riding in the back of a pick up on a warm day was always a special treat. We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle. We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually

died from this. We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank koolade made with sugar, but we weren't overweight because ……. WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING !

We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on. No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K. We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem. We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVD's, no surround-sound or CD's, no cell phones, no personal computers, no Internet or chat rooms.......WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!

We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents. We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever. We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes. We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them!

Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!! The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law! These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever! The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL!

If YOU are one of them . . CONGRATULATIONS

Blessings and good wishes for increased health, Remember this is Boxing Day a day to give to those who serve us, to box up all those goodies they can use to remind them how valuable they are to us.
"Boxing Day is also known as the Feast of St. Stephen, named for the first Christian martyr. It originated in 19th century England under Queen Victoria, when it was the day "on which postmen, errand boys, and servants of various kinds received a Christmas box of contributions from those whom they serve," in the words of Charles Dickens. If you come from one of the unfortunate English-speaking nations that does not recognize Boxing Day, just remember that it comes right after "unboxing" day, Christmas." from: http://www.alphadictionary.com/goodword/today.jsp

Peripheral Neuropathy

Neuropathy is a disorder of the peripheral nerves—the motor, sensory and autonomic nerves that connect the spinal cord to muscles, skin and internal organs. It usually affects the hands and feet, causing weakness, numbness, tingling and pain.

(1)

Peripheral Neuropathy is one of the most common diseases most people have never heard of…in fact, upwards of 20 million Americans have it.

Peripheral neuropathy is caused by damage to your body’s peripheral nerves.
This damage disrupts the body’s ability to communicate with its muscles, skin, joints, or internal organs. It is like the body’s wiring system breaking down. If ignored, neuropathy can lead to numbness, pain, weakness and incoordination. However, if it is diagnosed and treated early, peripheral neuropathy can often be controlled, slowing the disease’s progression.

It usually include autoimmune disorders, tumors, heredity, nutritional imbalances, infections or toxins. about 30% of the time it's caused by diabetes.

Some types can be cured but most cannot, there are therapies that can help. Be sure to get to your neurologist right away so you can take drugs.... Ok so what if you won't take drugs, why does it happen, how can we cope and even help the problem.

The four major forms of nerve damage are polyneuropathy, autonomic neuropathy, mononeuropathy, and mononeuritis multiplex. The most common form is peripheral polyneuropathy, which mainly affects the feet and legs.

Often the form of neuropathy is further broken down as to cause (see below), or other type, such as small fiber peripheral neuropathy, which is idiopathic [a double=speak Doctorism meaning "who knows where it came from".]

Peripheral nerves, either singly or in groups, are damaged through lack of circulation, chemical imbalance, trauma, or other factors.

If you have the problem from Diabetes, get rid of the Diabetes, I'm trying, I'm trying. I have had weird sharp pains in my toes, it feels like the toenail is separating violently from the toe, but it's been going on for much longer than I've had Diabetes, unless I've had it for years unknown.

I've read the problem only gets worse without some form of therapy, I believe mine was caused by shoes that don't fit, but then shoes never actially fit my feet. I used to tell my daughter I had to buy my shoes from the "Funny-Shaped Foot Shoppe", say That three times fast. My feet are high-wide and very short, they are nearly square. If I find a shoe wide enough the arch is in the wrong place, I have a very high arch and my toes are extremely short. I also walk with my ankles bent outwards when I'm tired, so my shoes have a tendancy to be walked over on the outsides and my little toe has no sole under it, then a stone or stick will really hurt when I walk on it. I had no idea until recently that other people didn't have this problem, or that there might be something I could do about it, I've just had to buy whatever shoe didn't hurt too bad.

Other (2)

common causes of Peripheral Neuropathy are:herpes zoster infection, HIV-AIDS, toxins, alcoholism, chronic trauma (such as repetitive motion disorders) or acute trauma (including surgery), various neurotoxins and autoimmune conditions such as celiac disease, which can account for approximately 16% of small fiber neuropathy cases.[1] Neuropathic pain is common in cancer as a direct result of the cancer on peripheral nerves (e.g., compression by a tumor), as a side effect of many chemotherapy drugs, and as a result of electrical injury. In many cases the neuropathy is "idiopathic," meaning no cause is found. A form of spinal nerve entrapment called Posterior Rami Syndrome can lead to neuropathic pain.

Oh great more good news.

(3)

More than 100 types of peripheral neuropathy have been identified, each with its own characteristic set of symptoms, pattern of development, and prognosis. Impaired function and symptoms depend on the type of nerves -- motor, sensory, or autonomic -- that are damaged. Some people may experience temporary numbness, tingling, and pricking sensations, sensitivity to touch, or muscle weakness. Others may suffer more extreme symptoms, including burning pain (especially at night), muscle wasting, paralysis, or organ or gland dysfunction. Peripheral neuropathy may be either inherited or acquired. Causes of acquired peripheral neuropathy include physical injury (trauma) to a nerve, tumors, toxins, autoimmune responses, nutritional deficiencies, alcoholism, and vascular and metabolic disorders. Acquired peripheral neuropathies are caused by systemic disease, trauma from external agents, or infections or autoimmune disorders affecting nerve tissue. Inherited forms of peripheral neuropathy are caused by inborn mistakes in the genetic code or by new genetic mutations.

And here we see some hope, while there is no existing treatment for inherited Peripheral Neuropathy, often weight loss, exercise, and a good diet will alleviate much of the problem.

(3)

In acute neuropathies, such as Guillain-Barré syndrome, symptoms appear suddenly, progress rapidly, and resolve slowly as damaged nerves heal. In chronic forms, symptoms begin subtly and progress slowly. Some people may have periods of relief followed by relapse. Others may reach a plateau stage where symptoms stay the same for many months or years. Some chronic neuropathies worsen over time, but very few forms prove fatal unless complicated by other diseases. Occasionally the neuropathy is a symptom of another disorder.

Taking very good care of feet and hands will really help to keep the tissues of those extremities healthy, even if the nerves are going nuts the flesh can remain whole.

For me shoes are part of the problem, so I try hard to keep my floors nice and clean and spend my indoor time barefootin'. Lately I've noticed that my hands and feet actually get cold, prior to just the last fewyears I never had a problem with that. I also try to find the best shoes I can get for outdoor time.

I also believe the oxygenating effects of CellPower™ to really be keeping my nerves healthier than they would be if I weren't taking it. Also the
coconut oil


is helping weight loss.

To stay [and regain] healthy I recommend great antioxidants:Essential fatty acids,FLAX SEED OIL

CURTAIN RODS----PRICELESS



She spent the first day packing her belongings into boxes, crates and suitcases.

On the second day, she had the movers come and collect her things.

On the third day, she sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining room table by candle-light, put on some soft background music, and feasted on a pound of shrimp, a jar of caviar, and a bottle of spring-water.

When she had finished, she went into each and every room and deposited a few half-eaten shrimp shells dipped in caviar into the hollow of the curtain rods.

She then cleaned up the kitchen and left. When the husband returned with his new girlfriend, all was bliss for the first few days.

Then slowly, the house began to smell.

They tried everything; cleaning, mopping and airing the place out.

Vents were checked for dead rodents and carpets were steam cleaned.

Air fresheners were hung everywhere. Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters, during which they had to move out for a few days and in the end they even paid to replace the expensive wool carpeting.

Nothing worked!!!

People stopped coming over to visit.
Repairmen refused to work in the house.
The maid quit.

Finally, they could not take the stench any longer and decided to move.

A month later, even though they had cut their price in half, they could not find a buyer for their stinky house.

Word got out and eventually even the local realtors refused to return their calls.

Finally, they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place.

The ex-wife called the man and asked how things were going.

He told her the saga of the rotting house. She listened politely and said that she missed her old home terribly and would be willing to reduce her divorce settlement in exchange for getting the house back.

Knowing his ex-wife had no idea how bad the smell was, he agreed on a price e that was about 1/10th of what the house had been worth, but only if she were to sign the papers that very day.

She agreed and within the hour his lawyers delivered the paperwork.

A week later the man and his girlfriend stood smiling as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home.........

And to spite the ex-wife, they even took the curtain rods!!!!!!

Subject: Prospective Employee Assessment

To: All Managers

The following guidelines shall be used when hiring new personnel.

Take the prospective employees you are trying to place and put them in a room with only a table and two chairs. Leave them alone for two hours, without any instruction. At the end of that time, go back and see what they are doing.

If they have taken the table apart in that time, put them in Engineering.
If they are counting the butts in the ashtray, assign them to Finance.
If they are screaming and waving their arms, send them off to Manufacturing.
If they are talking to the chairs, Personnel is a good spot for them.
If they are sleeping, they are Management material.
If they are writing up the experience, send them to Technical Publications.
If they don't even look up when you enter the room, assign them to Security.
If they try to tell you it's not as bad as it looks, send them to Marketing.
And if they have left early, put them in Sales.
