• Psychological problems can be quite a burden to our bodies. But physical problems can confuse our psychological well-being a lot as well.
There are more illnesses that can directly lead to psychological problems than you might think. On the Internet you can find loads of examples, like Lyme, Candida, Hypoglycemia, HPU, CVS, ME, ADHD, ADD and PMS, not to mention SMS, XP, GSM and MSN ...
Surf around on the Internet, but keep your focus wide and stay sharp because each claim is stained.
Do it yourself!
• Wouldn't it be great if you could board out maintenance and repair of your own body to a mechanic, just like with your car. And if it isnīt properly done you just go back to the garage, as a responsible citizen.
There are plenty of people who are happy to hand over the responsibility for their own health to the medical profession. Powders and pills salve their conscience, but are they good for their health?
To actually take responsibility for your own health means that you cannot put your head in the sand for whatever information. You should actively look for independent information and you must learn to really listen to your own body. Man can easily fool himself!
Doctors are busy and often have no time to keep themselves abreast of the latest developments. Therefore, patients should arrive on the appointment with the doctor well. A good doctor points you on your own responsibility, again and again. He is your adviser and no authority.
Lynn McTaggart wrote the book "What Doctors don't tell you". Meanwhile, a newsletter is being published under the same name and there is a website. Both newsletter and website are in English. On the website you can sign up for a free mailing.
Have a look at www.wddty.co.uk
The book was also translated into Dutch and a dutch version of the newsletter, called MD (medical file) can be found at: www.ode.nl/md/
Unfortunately, for this sometimes vital information often has to be paid. Search for free information on the Internet, for example at the suppliers of vitamins and food supplements.
• Wild animals instinctively know much better what is or is not good for them, much better than we humans can imagine. The book "Wild Health, how animals keep themselves well and what we can learn from them." written by Cindy Engel tells you all about it.
Itīs fascinating!
Did you know that Chamois can splint their own broken leg with straw and clay? Would you like to know why monkeys rub themselves with poisonous caterpillars or why elephants grave enormous corridors in a specific mountain? Read the book! The writer is clear about what is scientifically proven and what is not (yet) and the book gives a lot of insight into the ways to stay healthy yourself. It is good to see that so many lost knowledge have come back to us again.
You can order the book via the Internet on many sites. For an extensive review have a look at:

• People not only lost real contact with nature, but also change and treat their food more and more for many reasons. Food additives are substances that are added to food without contributing directly to the nutritional value or taste of it. Additives with an E number have been approved for use in the European Union. Have a look at our E-number overview
(Dutch only for now) of the most commonly used chemical substances which are not always proven to be as human-friendly as the European approval wants you to believe.
