Over The Pond

Lyme News this week.

Just 15 hours ago the bill in Maryland, USA was passed stating that insurance companies had to pay and cover treatments for Lyme patients. This is massive. So many doctors in the US have been sued and lost their licenses because insurance companies have refused to pay for treatment for the disease. Maryland is the sixth state with the highest Lyme levels in the US. Let’s hope that this encourages other states to fight insurance conpanies and get treatment paid for rather than us fighting them. 

Texas, in Dallas a new Facebook campaign has begun. To raise awareness and be able to access better levels of care for sufferers. 

It’s becoming ever more present within our society. We seem to be in the news with a new story every week on a new patient. Trying to show the real horrific disease that the media & health professionals often try to play down. This can nolonger be the case as more and more people become affected. 

Hopefully all these massive successes over the pond will cross over and rub off on us.

I know it’s a long road, a road in which we may have to battle hard through and not really benefit from. We have to think of the wider picture however and how we can help further generations. Our work can help save lives. 

Now that’s something which is extremely important. 

Helping all we can is what drives our passion and motivation. 

We can do anything we put our minds to it.

I’ll keep my wild dreams of making my mark on the world. 

We fight on.

COOKING TIPS

#1
Feeling sluggish and rubbish when you have woken up? Get boosting up on bananas the more the better - they will help settle your stomach, boosting digestion, they are a mood enhancer, they will give you the energy you need and keep you full. Buy my book for banana receipe ideas.
 
#2
Wake up every morning and ATLEAST have one glass of lemon water before doing anything else! Ideally try to drink a litre of water. The lemon wakes up your digestive system ready for the day and has great cleansing properties.
 
#3
Check your dairy and meat intake - dairy can sit in your system for up to seven days unable to digest properly. Meaning other foods also get neglected and nurtients aren't absorbed properly and you feel extremely bloated. Go and smell your food bin, your stomach will be in that state. Rotting foods in your belly - hmm nice.
 
#4
DO NOT FEAR CARBS - THEY ARE NOT THE ENEMY! CARB UP!!
Bananas, Rice, Potatoes, Leafy Greens, Corn, Beans, Lentils etc PACK THEM IN GO MAD.
 
#5
NEVER COUNT CALORIES - NEVER RESTRICT!! These restriction 'starvation' diets who tell you to only eat 500 calories a day then have a treat day - where you binge out and eat WAY too much, is simply messing up your metabolism and on your binge days yours body stores all the fat meaning you gain weight because it knows it is going to go back into starvation mode and needs to hold onto every little thing it can. HELLO WEIGHT GAIN. 

Life is too short not to live it to the full, making yourself happy.
