North Americans are constantly bombarded with the idea that their body is eventually going to fail them and the best they can do is stay vigilant by constantly monitoring the body’s inept design with a steady barrage of medical tests. Getting in front of the predictable body breakdowns with mutilating surgeries and toxic drugs is the best we can do. Is this the truth? Is this belief system serving us? Is our population getting more healthy using this belief system?

Writing about the complete fallacy of most (if not all) medical tests could encompass an entire series of articles so I will make this part short for the sake of the reader. Medical tests are like casinos, all the odds are stacked in favor of the house. The key to all successful medical sales is the belief of the patient that science can out do, out gun and out smart nature. The patient must also believe that the body makes mistakes (which it doesn’t) and the patient must also believe that the changes a body undergoes during stressful situations means it’s malfunctioning and not trying to protect the person themselves. Lets take cholesterol testing just so the average person can understand what I’m really talking about.

Cholesterol is produced in the liver and the liver produces cholesterol for many reason but one primary reason is that cholesterol acts as a repair paste for injured tissues. Tissues are most often injured by sugar (because sugar’s an acid) and toxic man made chemicals, which literally destroy live cells on contact. Lets take a person named Bob. Bob enters a family restaurant and orders a beer, an iced tea and a sandwich/fries. The beer, iced tea, bread and fries convert to blood sugar rapidly inside Bob’s blood stream. That blood sugar burns plenty of holes in Bob’s tissues, which are going to need repairing. Sugar is an acid and that is why sugar is unhealthy in excess quantities. The chemicals in all the family restaurant’s menu items (because none of the food at the family restaurant is organic) also carve up Bob’s internal organs like Freddy Kruger from A Nightmare on Elm Street.

The excessive amounts of blood sugar from Bob’s junk food meal is converted into cholesterol in the liver for 2 reasons. Number 1) the sugar is dangerous and it needs to be converted into something or the damage will continue and 2) the body knows it needs lots of cholesterol now (healing paste) to patch all the holes Bob just created in himself with these bad food choices. If this DEFENSIVE system wasn’t available inside the body, Bob would be dead pretty quickly. The body is not malfunctioning. The body is working as designed to protect Bob from death. Although there’s no cholesterol in the beer, iced tea, French fries or bread…..Bob’s blood cholesterol is sky high because sugar, chemicals and stress determine cholesterol levels……not cholesterol inside our food choices. Cholesterol from meats, fats or butter etc don’t raise our cholesterol levels. Fast acting sugar/carb based food choices, mad made toxic chemicals and stress raise our cholesterol levels.

Now if Bob goes to his doctor he will test high for cholesterol because his diet is full of sugar and chemicals (and maybe emotional stress as well), which all blow holes in Bob’s own tissues. Bob’s body produces extra cholesterol to help him and to try to patch those holes before the holes get bigger and cause entire organ systems to malfunction. The cholesterol is produced to help Bob, not hurt him. Bob’s doctor places him on a cholesterol lowering drug and Bob thinks he’s healthy all of the sudden because his cholesterol is low. Bob thinks his health is based on a cholesterol number on a sheet of paper and not what Bob eats or how he treats himself. Bob happily returns to the family restaurant to blow holes in all his organs again with his garbage diet but this time Bob is taking toxic cholesterol lowering drugs to make sure his liver doesn’t produce the cholesterol he needs to patch the holes in his organs. So all the same damage is occurring from the sugar and the chemicals inside Bob’s body but his repair and defense systems are shut down. All the same destruction but no longer any healing paste to fix the damage.

Do you think Bob is going to get healthier overtime given the lies he’s now living regarding cholesterol testing? These lies are fabricated to sell Bob toxic drugs that make him more sick….which in turn will require more drugs to make him sicker. Here is a clip regarding the cholesterol myth just shot on the Dr. Oz show. Click here to watch or if you can see the TV screen below, you can just click on that.

All medical tests function in this exact same way. Don’t think your doctor or the tests you take are any different. They’re not. No matter what your body does, it’s trying to protect you. Your disease and pain has a message for you about how you’re treating yourself. You caused all of your disease and pain and you can reverse the disease and pain by stopping the unhealthy habits, which are causing the disease and pain. You can move away from disease by looking at the role you play in it or you can move further into disease and pain with the help of your doctor. Your doctor will try and block these valuable messages with drugs or surgeries that literally turn off or destroy the very protection mechanisms that are trying to keep you alive and has been keeping you alive for thousands of years.

If you want to keep an eye on your health, you don’t need any medical tests. You don’t need to source your health out to third parties. You really don’t need to lie to yourself anymore either. That’s not going to help anyone. No one at the hospital is healthy because there’s nothing there to make people healthy. No one knows you better than you. It’s time to take responsibility for how you treat yourself and it’s time to listen to the messages your body is trying to send you. What you do need is simple in home health based testing you can run on yourself and your loved ones. If you do fail one of these at home based health tests, you simply need to reapply the pillars of health more rigorously into your lifestyle. Sleep quality, water quality, food quality, exercise and relaxation. If you’re ill, you need to review what you’re doing in those 5 areas to correct the under lining metabolic changes which are causing your DIS-EASE. You don’t need drugs, you need to take care of yourself. You don’t need more attack, you need more self respect. It’s time to take the bull by the horns because drugging and cutting yourself into an early grave isn’t working for you or anyone else. Lets get started……

1) Color of urine – your urine should be clear or near clear. (unless you are taking certain b vitamins that can literally make your urine appear fluorescent). If you are not taking b-vitamins and your urine is yellow you need more quality water between your meals. You need to drink half your body weight in ounces of clean water every day between your meals. Drinking water with your meals dilutes the concentration of stomach acid and will compromise your digestion. This compromised digestion will lead to its’ own problems. A lack of water in the system will first lead to joint pain and decreased mobility because of that pain. After joint pain sets in, spinal disc problems are sure to follow. (as water does cushions all joint capsules as well as cushions the spaces in-between spinal vertebrae) Prepare for spinal issues at L4-L5 or L5-S1 or in the neck at C7-T1. (as those discs are under the most pressure and will fail quickly during dehydration) After pain syndromes set in from the lack of water, digestion issues are sure to follow after that.

There’s a lining of mucus that separates your fecal material (your poop) from your intestinal track. When you don’t get enough quality water, that protective layer of mucus starts to disappear and soon enough your own poop is making direct contact with your intestinal wall. (which is not supposed to happen). You don’t need a medical degree to take it from there, as your own poop will start to eat through your intestinal wall. The results of this poop based attack are things like Crohn’s. colitis, leaky gut syndrome, ulcerative colitis, hemorroids, blood in your poop, fatigue, infection etc. Water issues can affect everything from brain function to sperm count so save yourself a whole punch of problems and get some quality water into you, in-between your meals. For the record Dasani, Aquafina, distilled and reverse osmosis aren’t safe to drink long term as they impair the optimal function of your metabolism. Spring water is best with a ppm (parts per million of dissolved minerals) above 300 and glass bottled spring water is preferred. Coffee, alcohol and caffeinated teas remove water from the system so take that into consideration when reviewing your hydration habits. The best waters are Evian, Vitel, Fuji and Trinity. Drink 500ml of clean spring water when you get up in the morning (after you brush) and then wait 30 minutes to eat. Once you’re completed eating wait 1.5-1.75 hours to start drinking your water again. Stop drinking the water again 30 minutes before you eat your second meal etc. Work your hydration cycle in this manner.
