This
is a Call to Action for a Non-Hierarchical Occupation of Monsanto
Everywhere
“Whether
you like it or not, chances are Monsanto contaminated the food you
ate today with chemicals and unlabeled GMOs. Monsanto controls much
of the world's food supply at the expense of food democracy
worldwide. This site is dedicated to empowering citizens of the world
to take
action against Monsanto & it's
enablers like the FDA, USDA, EPA, GMA, BIO, and the processed food
companies that use Monsanto's products.”

Tackling Fibromyalgia since 2000, by Norah Wickerson
 |
| Norah Wickerson |
I was a
sufferer of Fibromyalgia myself for over twenty years before I
developed my Combination Approach
in 2000, which helped me to attain better health than I had ever
known.
Since
then I have been having some great success treating other patients
with Fibromyalgia using my Combination
Approach - check out the testimonials
for a selection of patients' comments.
I am
based in Derby, Derbyshire, in the UK Midlands, but I treat patients
from all over the UK and beyond.
I also
treat patients with Fibromyalgia and related conditions at the Derby
Nuffield Hospital.
I
believe that Fibromyalgia is a collection of symptoms indicating that
the body systems are out of balance.

12
Ways We Sabotage Our Mental Health - Our
own worst enemy By Amanda Gardner
Our
mind and mood are keenly sensitive to the world around us.
Distressing life events—a bad breakup, unemployment, the death of a
loved one—often leave us rattled or sad, of course, but our daily
routine and patterns of thinking also have a big impact on our mood.
Bad habits like skimping on sleep, drinking too much, or nursing
grudges can undermine our mental health, whether that means a brief
episode of the blues or full-blown depression
and anxiety.

Chronic
Pain Management: Rebuild Friendships
You may
have noticed that pain
puts a strain on friendship.
Whether you have fibromyalgia, headaches, back pain, arthritis, or
other type of chronic pain, chronic pain can take a toll on
your relationships, especially with friends. You may see friends less
or feel disconnected when you do get together. You may have
lost touch with some friends who you feel are too active – you may
believe you just can’t keep up. You may feel that some of
your friends just don’t understand what you are experiencing and
that some are even downright insensitive. Chronic pain can be lonely.
But, you need not give up on friendship! As
a first step, it is important to realize that while it is not
possible to change other people, you are in charge your own behavior.
Start by thinking of what you can do to begin the process of
rebuilding your relationships. Here are some ways to improve and
repair friendships that may have been negatively impacted by your
chronic pain.

Common Pain and Pain Relief Myths
What
you don't know about pain and pain relief can
hurt you. Great strides have been made in the understanding of pain
and its treatment in the last decade. Pain that was once considered
hopeless is now manageable.
Medical
evidence proves that many of the beliefs about pain and pain relief
are false. Here's what experts say you should know about five of the
most common pain relief myths:
Fibro
and Depression Nearly 3 out of every 10
people with fibromyalgia also have major depression. But
depression signs aren't always easy to spot.Read

Movement
therapy has been proven time and
time again to help my (Dr D’s) patients get immediate relief from
their chronic pain of Fibromyalgia.
Movement
therapy is unique. These movements are simple and stress-less that
any person of any age in any condition can do, without any of the
side effects that come with traditional exercise like soreness,
cramping, stiffness or muscle spasms which can often last for days
afterward.

While
Fibromyalgia is NOT “all in your head”, you may have problems
that are “all in your gut.”
“Leaky
Gut Syndrome” is a real issue, and may be complicating your
Fibromyalgia.

N.B. I would
like to point out to you that the information in my eNews blog is
passed on to you mainly from other sources. Links are given to the
original articles. I take no responsibility for their accuracy but
freely give them publicity if I think they might be of interest to my
readership. Sites I refer you to are for information only.
They might conflict in their opinions, they might not even be
medically sound, but I merely offer them for you to peruse and make
your own judgements, accept or reject as you will. Only by
reading widely can we get an overall picture of fibromyalgia syndrome
and how we can deal with its symptoms, learn to cope with them and
still have a life. Any advice or recommendation of a medical or
legal nature should always be discussed with a qualified
professional.
I also include
various awareness items, benefits issues, as well as general health
considerations. Anyone wishing to reproduce any of the included
items in printed form should seek permission from the originators.
