Good Sleep

When is the last time you got a full eight hours of sleep? Have you been conditioned to think getting a full night’s sleep is not that necessary? When I asked one patient about his sleep habits he said, “I’ll sleep when I’m dead!” Prophetically, a lack of sleep will get you there more quickly.

It is estimated that 40% of Americans do not get proper sleep time. Many get less than five hours per night. Even the CDC has stated that a lack of sleep is a public health epidemic. Improper sleep habits are linked to a wide variety of health problems. Tired drivers are as dangerous as drunk drivers. By lacking sleep, you are risking far more than accidents, you are affecting your entire health picture.

Mandatory Vaccine

Ever since the measles outbreak originating at Disneyland started, I’ve been itching to write an article on the hypocrisy of those calling for mandatory vaccinations. The pharmaceutical companies played a first class propaganda ploy to ensure profits at the expense of your health.

They say those of us who don’t vaccinate pose a serious danger to the rest of society. Apparently we are all pharmaceutically deficient and need to be forced to get their vaccines or be punished and segregated.
