Most of us will have a backache at least a few
times in our lives. I know I have and I’ve been to
traditional doctors for the pain. They offer the
same treatment over and over — pain pills,
anti-inflammatory and, sometimes, physical
therapy. That’s it. If that doesn’t work, another
bright idea is cutting you open and fusing your
vertebrae together. Although surgery would be my
very last option, in some cases, it seems to help
for a few years before another part of your spine
fails. Yes, back pain is more prevalent than ever
and I believe stress is a big factor.

Did you ever think that there is an emotional root
to your back pain? Well, there is! If you are
stressed out, have repressed rage, or financial
problems, those emotions can easily cause back
pain. It may sound ridiculous at first if you are
a back pain sufferer. Who would ever think that
every agonizing move you make might come from your
negative thoughts?

Your emotions don’t necessarily cause back pain,
but they are a big part of the problem. Have you
ever worked in a job that you didn’t like or have
been totally overwhelmed with work or other heavy
responsibilities? If the answer is yes, you know
it’s a pain in the back and physical symptoms may
be there as well.

There are five proven treatments for back pain
that I had a personal experience with:

1. Acupuncture – It encourages the body to cure
itself and causes the system to increase the
release of natural painkillers.

2. Neural therapy – We don’t hear much about this
treatment in the US, but it is used in Europe with
great success using local anesthetic injections to
remove pain, both short-term and long-term. Neural
therapy influences nervous, muscular, hormonal,
lymphatic and circulatory regulations in the
organism, the skeleton as well as the digestive
and excretory organs. The pain can be immediately
stopped via the form of the “phenomena of seconds”
very often.

3. Meditation – It promotes relaxation and builds
internal energy. It also helps to clear the mind
and to ease many health problems like stress,
depression, and anxiety, even anger. When you
relax into a meditative state, a back pain can
melt away.

4. Massage – When done on a regular basis, it
reduces back pain and improves range of motion.

5. Gua Sha – It produces an anti-inflammatory and
immune protective effect on pain, stiffness,
fever, chill, cough, wheeze, nausea and vomiting.
It has been practiced in Asia for thousands of
years and has been very effective in acute and
chronic internal organ disorders including liver
inflammation in hepatitis. I have been using Gua
Sha in my clinic to clear pain and to relieve a
patient of colds and coughs.

These techniques and treatments can reduce your
back pain and, when combined with the program on

I was listening to a program that Ocean Robbins
put up on the web called, “How To Get Fat Without
Really Trying”. He is the son of Baskin-Robbins
ice cream people. The video pointed out that
Americans are getting fatter and fatter, and it’s
not all our fault. Both the government and the
food industry are making things worse and they
know it. Our government subsidizes the corn
industry, the cattle farmers association as well
as the pork and poultry producers. Very little of
that money goes into producing healthy foods.
Grazed animals, like cattle, eat grass, and pigs
feed on just about anything they find like
carrion, berries, roots, and even fish or small
lizards. Neither animal normally eats corn as
their food source but are commercially corn-fed.
This can cause an imbalance in their health and
antibiotics are administered to try and keep the
animals from getting sick. Although it is much
cheaper to feed them corn, it produces a weaker
and unhealthy animal. The bad news is that you
are getting antibiotics with every bite you take.
High-fructose corn sugar (HFCS) is used as a cheap
sweetener in just about everything from soda to
candy bars. We are consuming HFCS, or sugar, in
general, in pharmacologic quantities never before
experienced in human history–140 pounds a year!
Also, high fructose corn syrup is always found in
very poor quality foods that are nutritionally vacuous
and filled with all sorts of other disease-promoting
compounds like fats, salt, chemicals, and even
mercury.

I took my granddaughter and her girl friend to the
store last summer when I was in Detroit. As most
kids do, they asked me this, “Can I get something
to eat?” I said sure as long as it doesn’t have
any corn or corn syrup in it. They both ran up and
down the aisles and couldn’t find one thing to
eat.

If you are worried about that big butt and belly and
hefty thighs you’ve got, they are most likely from
eating corn. It’s the cheapest sweetener and is in
just about everything. We grow more corn in the
USA than any other country in the world, and to
make it even worse, corn is now
“genetically-modified organisms (GMOs)”. These are
living organisms whose genetic material has been
artificially manipulated in a laboratory through
genetic engineering or through traditional
cross-breeding methods. This relatively new
science creates unstable combinations of plant,
animal, bacterial and viral genes that do not
occur in nature.

There is a growing body of evidence associating
GMOs with health problems, environmental damage,
and violation of farmers’ and consumers’ rights.
The food industry doesn’t want you to know what
they are doing to your food! Most nations do not
consider GMOs to be safe. In more than 60
countries around the world, there is an outright
ban on GMOs. If you aren’t shocked, you should be!
The food industry is not about your health. The
government isn’t on your side and, worst of all,
the drug companies aren’t either. It is a business
and you are the consumer. No one wants to lose
business. So, this goes on and on. You are getting
fat and sick and the Food Industry and Big Pharma
are getting rich and paying more lobbyists to keep
you in the dark.

What can you do?

Read labels. Don’t buy products that aren’t
healthy and read more about what you are eating.
Share this with your friends and family and pray
that we can shift from a money-making society to a
healthy society.

I wish you the best in your Health, Wealth, and
Happiness!
