As I get older and experience more and more cases of medical malpractice and incompetence, I have to question all these doctors and how they work. Today, it appears they are nothing more than shills for the pharmaceutical business. Drug pushers for short.
I finally got my wife off all the drugs, prescription drugs, she was on and onto healthier diet with herbal suplements. After one month off all the prescription drugs, she has more energy, losing weight, lowering her ever increasing cholesterol, and lowering her Blood Pressure, finally. She also has observed a better memory recall and no longer suffers from night sweats. Essentially all her bad side effects of these meds are gone and with the right blend of herbal medicine has begun to actually get the problem areas under control. I began a self prescribed Herbal regieme about 11 month ago and without changing anything else, I have lowerd MY LDL cholesterol 90 points, dropped 22 pounds in weight, and dropped my BP from 135/90 to 116/68. A month ago I returned to my free weight exercise and do about 10 miles a week of power walking on a treadmill. Prior I never had the energy to do that. Years ago I was very active as a scuba instructor and deep cave explorer. When I retired from that I quit all exercise and went on a decade of relaxation. It took it's toll on my health.
I like Red BUll and have consumed that when I travel and go from my normal sedintary work at home to a field job where I'm working physically long hours. The Red Bull is a good pick -me-up about mid afternoon and lets me continue to be alert into the evening. Caffeine? I drink all caffein free and never drank coffee except as a therapeutic for a sore thraot coming on. That means the last time I drank coffee was about 3 years ago as I just don't get colds- ever!
