I stopped at my hardware store and ordered the parts for my water filtration unit.<\/p>\n<p>At the barbershop I saw a man walking with a cane. I mentioned that I will be walking like that soon. He asked why I told him about my possible MS.<\/p>\n<p>He told me the same story we compared symptoms. Almost identical. Then we went on to talk about the diagnosis and the trouble he had with the doctors. Again identical until a doctor noticed something in him.<\/p>\n<p>Like me, he had been misdiagnosed for years. Now after finally getting the MRI scans done, the very same ones I know I need he got his diagnosis. And he is getting a spinal tap done, That should have been done a long time ago.<\/p>\n<p>I got a glimpse into my future. I was very thankful I met this man.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s health issue. I have finally come to the conclusion, that I might have kidney stones. The Best solution I found out there is to drink water. So I am doing that. Lots of water. Maybe its time, to do a water fast. I had amazing results last time I did one. Ten days of just water.<\/p>\n<p>The possibility of more days of excruciating pain so soon after the toothache thing I just went through has me motivated. Really motivated.<\/p>\n<p>I read the pain from passing a stone was insane. If there is even a small chance drinking water could melt the stones, I am going to try. Oh, I almost forgot taking Vitamin D3 can contribute to kidney stones and the same for curcumin, both of which I have been taking. I just read that vitamin c is also bad, it converts in the body to the very thing that makes the stones.<\/p>\n<p>On another note, I was in to see my friendly Pharmacist and I joked about big Pharma really owned the Vitamin Business. I found out that one of them really does.<\/p>\n<p>Jamieson Wellness. The one I criticized in another post for using soybean oil extracted with Hexane, a petroleum derivative that is toxic to your central nervous system. Turned out they are part of a 17 billion dollar company, who distributes medical products. They even own a chain of health food stores, some right here in Canada. The same company owns Generac that make generators, and lots and lots of other companies. Huh go figure I was right. I am learning that the vitamin business is a big scam.<\/p>\n<p>BTW the vitamin business is worth 36 Billion dollars. It is also unregulated.<\/p>\n<p>Going to plant some kale.<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-responsive-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uwiTs60VoTM\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Daily vitamins are of no value.&#8221; Michael Specter I made the trip into town yesterday to get my beard cut down and pick up some water.
