Hey all! I could use some advice. As some of you know, I have been fighting some health issues for quite some time. I have been to more doctors and specialists then my memory can hold and take so many pills that I am called the Department Pharmacy at work.

I have come to you - oh great and all knowing people of healthy stuff, for advice. Zip and Chris know that I have a few permanent conditions that I don't want to share, but I have some really odd non-related stuff as well.

1. The corners of my mouth crack and bleed for no reason. My son says it scares him because he is afraid that it means that my mouth is getting bigger. Anyways, I have seen multiple causes for this - but no real cures. Are there any vitamins that I should be taking to help at least prevent this?

2. I have NO energy, I am nearly always half asleep no matter how much I drink cofee.

3. I have no apetite. A few of my meds cause this - but is there something out there that I can take to stimulate my apetite?

4. My immune system sucks eggs - this is due to a few meds too - but is there anything *natural* that I should take to try to boost it?

And on a side note - pay no attention to Zip when she starts yelling at me to go to the doctor - I hate going to the doctors.

;0)

Thanks for any ideas you offer!

Starting with the simplest things first:

Sleep - 8 hours every night - we have the SelectComfort mattress and love it.

Hydration - I don't believe that we can have too much pure water - Berkey purification here.

Aspartame = poison. Don't use it.

Too much salt, either from processed food, or the shaker, can be harmful. Try using pepper or salt-free herbs for seasoning.

Be sure that each of the doctors know exactly what the others are prescribing, and that you use one pharmacist who can also evaluate all the possible drug interactions and advise you accordingly - a good pharmacist will know more about the meds than will most doctors who are given all sorts of crap by BigPharma's hottie pill pushers to hand out to their patients.

We take, among lots of other supplements:

Vit C - 2000mg

COQ10 - 300mg

Zymitol enzymes - as directed

DHEA

Melatonin

There's my starter's list not knowing any more than I do about your specific problems.

Good luck and best wishes.

Oddly, sea salt is good for you, and will lower blood pressure because of the trace minerals.

My unothodox M.D. told me half a teaspoon of sea salt a day, along with lots of pure water, would increase my energy.

He was right; it did.

Thanks for this information.

It reminds me that Christine's nutritionist suggested adding some lemon juice and MSM to my daily water regimen.

I eat lots of raw foods (plant derived) and very little meat, usually only five times a week. I also love kefir YertleTurtle mentioned, Nancy's Kefir by Springfield Dairy run by Ken Kesey's wife being far and above the best of any I've tried made anywhere else.

I ride my bicycle and this time of year I used to do a punishing amount of miles and interval work, but at 52 I do lots of miles and if the boys doing sprints every other sign come along my route, I wave, chat and watch them go go go.

I only ride around 200-300 miles a week these days, but I am passionately addicted to riding and do ninety percent of my best thinking in saddle.

I also fast this time of year, last week I did a three day, and find it helps with seasonal depression which I also use full spectrum lights for.

I am very muscular and get mistaken for someone much younger, and my legs are so big in the thighs I can't remotely fit into Levi 501s my waist size (31) because of the leg muscle.

My resting pulse is around 52 usually and last year I tried a couple of beers a couple of times a week, the first alcohol I had drank since 1989, and decided I hated it worse then I did when I did drink which was only while in the Army to socialize. I just don't like drinking anything I have to recover from.

Both my brothers are younger and eat and drink the usual American diet and are plump, and look older them me.

Only?

Man - that's a bunch of miles - way to go.

Thanks, it isn't really that many on a good bike at speed. I'll do a fast 30 in the morning three times a week and tomorrow is usually my 60 miler to Cottage Grove doing the hilly route there and the flatter one along I-5 back.

Tuesday and Thursday I ride with the club in the fast group made up mostly of ex racers like me and we do 40-50 mile routes depending on the group consensus.

I ride for transportation and that usually adds up pretty fast as Eugene has gotten spread out and though we have a better bike path system then almost anywhere else in the United States a ride to Lane Community College round trip is around 18 miles if I do the short route with the hill.

I have several top quality bikes, but my favorite kitten is a Ferrari red Cinelli with Campagnolo Chorus components that cost me about 3000.00.

Italian race bikes are the royalty of race bikes, and Masi and Cinelli are the creme de la creme of that country's manufacturers. I consider it a part of my body, I am naked if I don't have a bicycle with me.

It is a 1988 which is heavier with only eight cogs in the back, but people with newer, lighter bikes (which I also have) flag me down to get a moment enjoyment of ogling my sweet piece of Italian eye candy.

That particular design of bike has been made by Cinelli since the 1930s. They stopped making them a few years ago when they introduced the current modern design, but the outcry of anguish and rage was so incredible, Cinelli apologized and now you can buy the frame again for a mere 1300 dollars.

The lugs and bottom bracket (crank housing) are castings, and it takes many man hours to get an even gage throughout the lug/BB to get the right heat distribution to get a superior brazing job. The tubing is chamfered and mitered so tightly you can't get rice paper between the tube when held together before final manufacture.

Ounce for ounce a Rolls Royce has nothing on my sweetheart.

Yikes.

I guess like any other product, there is the creme de la creme out there.

Be careful out there.

That's about what my favorite mode of transportation is worth too...

Some notable similarities:

*Mine also has health benefits. If you don't believe it, try giving it a spin for a few miles one day. The next day you'll discover muscles you didn't know you had.

*You don't need a license to ride it.

*You never have to stop at a gas station.

*It doesn't add to the environmental pollution problem.

But there are some notable differences too. Among them are:

*Mine weighs 1200 lbs more.

*Mine is capable of auto-pilot, which could be handy in the event that for some reason you are incapacitated and unable.

*Mine is very much less restricted in where you can go.

Nice - thanks.

My great-nephew won the "bucking bull" (really a barrel with a saddle on it) contest at the State Fair this year in the three-year-old class - we're looking forward to getting him going on a pony next year when the family should be in their new house on the family farm in north Texas.

That's really cool!!! Congrats, you have a natural in the family!!

He'll love it!!! Won't be long, and he'll be gone for hours at a time with his best friend in the whole world...

Our lives with horses are rich with feeling. If you've ever... choked back tears watching a new foal wobble to his feet for the first time... or watching your good horse wobble to his feet after surgery... or seen the ends of the reins float straight out as a reining horse spins beneath them... or chuckled to yourself as you watched a tiny tot on a patient pony trot through a barrel pattern at a saddle club playday... or felt the building tremble as an eight-up hitch of feather-legged giants towed a hand-carved beer wagon into the arena... or had your heart stop when you saw your horse lying motionless in the pasture on a sunny day -- and waited breathlessly to see an ear flicker... or cheered at the screen when The Man From Snowy River slid Dunnie down the mountainside, or when Seabiscuit made his final surge to best War Admiral... or cruised along the highway and seen a horse in the pasture and wondered what he's like to ride... or pictured him as a prospect... or sucked in your breath as a horse and rider approached a six-foot wall... or sworn a solemn oath to your horse that together you would triumph... or flipped through the TV channels and stopped when you saw a horse... even when it was a commercial... or laughed aloud when you rubbed your horse's face and he rubbed back... or gotten chills hearing Dave Johnson's "...and DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME!" (Or "Run For The Roses" circa 1980 ish?) or stood in awe at your horse in morning play as he sprinted around the pasture, then stopped, head erect, and snorted defiance at the rest of the world... or been thankful to see wild horses grazing casually at the foot of a hill... or felt calmed by the sleekness of a silky haircoat beneath your hand... or felt your jaw drop as you watched a Lipizzan perform a capriole... or if you've ever seen someone in the grocery store wearing a certain kind of hat or boots or buckle, or have a certain cut and length to their jeans... and felt some remote kind of connection... or felt warmed by a soft-nicker greeting you as you entered the barn... If you've ever been moved by any of these feelings, then you've seen the awesome power of God's creations.

Part of a wonderful tribute - thanks.

We were fortunate to see a Lipizzaner's practice session while in Vienna - I believe it was even more amazing than watching one of their touring shows because you could see all ages, and all stages, of what they go through to achieve the perfection that they take on the road.

Cutting and roping quarter horses, Tennessee Walkers, Arabians, and the American thoroughbred are my "favorites."

Few people realize just how amazing the feats those magnificent beauties perform really are. They make it look so simple and natural in their "road shows".

If cost were no object, it would be a lot easier for me to name the very few breeds I wouldn't care about owning, rather than the ones I would.. I'd love to have a Cleveland Bay, Friesan, Salerno, and of course a Shire... BTW, the largest horse ever on record was a Shire named Samson - he measured 21.2 hh, and weighed 3360 lbs!!!
