In this country, when using dangerous chemicals, we say things like:  it will kill the roaches but your cat will be fine, OR it will be OK if you’re exposed to small doses, OR it doesn’t exceed the EPA limit of X part per million so we are safe. The real problem is that saying X part per million (or even billion) of something like Arsenic is safe in small amounts is ridiculous as there IS NO SAFE LEVEL!  So we continue to drink our water unfiltered and we shower in chlorinated water (because we think that only people who are ill will be susceptible), but it’s only a matter of time before continued use of certain agents make us all sick (even if we aren’t currently ill).

We are chemically addicted in this country and while some of these agents can be helpful, there is almost always an alternative that can be used.

This spring if you have a problem with pests, I highly suggest you find alternatives and give it a good go. If you have to use pesticides go with a company that is certified to use these chemicals and has strict guidelines that their employees adhere too. Never hire “local boys” to spread hazardous chemicals!

Anything that is sprayed around your home will make its way inside your home. You can track it in on your shoes and clothes and your pets will bring it inside also (never mind that many chemicals travel through the air once sprayed).  If you wouldn’t consume it or breathe it, I would think twice before using it. 

Even if your home is greener than your neighbors, for the sake of your own health, your children’s and pet’s health, I would help my neighbor find alternatives and explain the situation as whatever your neighbor uses will also find its way to your home as well.  About 3 years ago my neighbor sprayed for “tree roaches” in their yard and around their house, killing several birds, a squirrel, and my cat (who I think was exposed to their monthly sprayings before finally taking on a deadly amount). Meanwhile, I was terribly ill with Lyme Disease and having my own issues with my immune system and for most nights my cat came inside to sleep with me.  It was a horrific ordeal and one that made me quite angry. The worst part is that the house was rented and the yard maintenance was taken care of by some locals, no professionals and they were spraying odorless pesticides (meaning the neighbors didn’t even know they were being exposed as it went undetected).

It may not have been enough to kill me, but it did make me sick and gave me yet another toxin to process. Anyone with Lyme is already full of waste created by the bacteria and also the die-off of bacteria (not to mention all of the day to day pollution we come into contact with). 

My suggestions for a healthy home this spring:

• Minimize or eliminate all pollution as much as possible. (It’s part of the healing process and the quicker you do it the easier it will be to get healthy

• Get an RO unit under your sink or for your entire house like this: Reverse Osmosis Units  (there is also another type of water filter that goes on top of your counter with no installation, I don’t have it yet, but I’m going to try this one out,                       Countertop Water Filtering System )

• If you don’t have an RO unit for your entire house then get one for just your kitchen sink and get a shower filter like this: Ultimate Shower Filter  (click on this link to learn about how your shower is actually like a poison gas chamber)

• Get an ozone machine to clean the air in your house 30 minutes to an hour a day (if it ozonates water, that’s huge, drink a few glasses a day), get one like this: Ozone Unit

• Null harmful frequencies that chemicals emit (not a new concept, but new to many people), using a frequency tube like this: Frequency Water Tube , can be used in conjunction with a water filter to micro-cluster water, but to also null any harmful frequencies in the water you drink. The battle for health is a battle against helpful and harmful frequencies. See my newsletter about this at: Frequency For Healing

• Open up windows on opposite sides of your house to clear out any indoor air pollutants

• Get a HEPA filter on your AC system

Well, it’s been about a week since the USA Indoor Track and Field Championships in New Mexico. I unfortunately did not make the World Championship team, but I think many people thought I was crazy to have started real training for this last October (after my 5 year break due to Lyme) and then expect to be at the top.  Well, the truth is YES, I did expect to make it, so maybe I am crazy.  Unfortunately I pushed, pushed, pushed with my training and racing (every weekend) until I got a fever on Monday (5 days prior to my race).  All my symptoms have cleared up (and never fully materialized into what I think was a cold that has been passed around here, but was just enough to throw me off balance when racing really hard) and what I needed was the one thing I didn’t give myself, REST. 

Some people wonder why they don’t get over Lyme disease and I can relate it to what I just did. I was doing all of the necessary things I talk about in my newsletters to keep up my “health maintenance” but I didn’t slow down.  Had I just rested a little more I would have given myself exactly what my body needed.   You must do all things that are available to you to get healthy, you cannot just select a few things to “try out” and dismiss the rest as this is an all out situation for most people who are ill. And for those who do think they do everything, it’s probably the lack of a substantial plan that may be the missing link.

So now with training for the Outdoor season ( the much larger/longer season, as some athletes skip the Indoor season due to climate issues usually), I will make sure I don’t do this again. I guess I got a little overzealous and was perhaps too excited about the idea of causing such an upset. Still it was a huge comeback thus far, one to be very proud of even though I’m still a little sore about the results last weekend. 

If I can get back to one of the hardest sports out there (in what’s considered to be the hardest  event(s) in that sport), I believe anyone can entertain the thoughts of a full recovery and a return to a normal life. 

Just last week, before my race, I got an email from a girl I coached last year. She wrote,

“Go kick some butt Perry. I am doing great. Going out to Co. to go skiing in a couple of weeks. Couldn’t have done it without your guidance. I feel like I am getting my life back and it is amazing. Thanks for being such an inspiration.  I tell everyone about you. Buena Suerte,  Beth”  

Beth is an avid skier and felt so bad that she couldn’t do it. She was so sick. Now she’s back skiing again. Skiing can be tough so congratulations to Beth for getting back to it!

Sometimes people I coach feel so bad that they think there are issues that are beyond their control. It’s easy to fall into this mindset when you can’t control your body and everything hurts, but the truth is besides my own turn around, many of the people I’ve coached have each had their own amazing turn around and all kinds of bizarre issues and complaints go away.  Sometimes it just takes a little elbow grease and doing the right things to get yourself back to normal. 

I am a full believer that you can turn around anything.  Since last year, I’ve seen way too many people make their own “amazing” comebacks and there are many more that are on their way.   Everything from neuropathy, to severe fatigue (the kind that keeps you in bed), to the worst cases of fibromyalgia/arthritis and severe psychosis (which is a tendency when you have Lyme). It’s not the doom and gloom that I came across back in 2005 when I first found out I had chronic Lyme disease (among other illnesses).

You should realize that the possibilities are quite endless and you should never be afraid of going for it (all out); you might lose a few battles but you will win the war.  The most important thing for most of us is to go back to a normal healthy life, but it can’t be done unless you go for it.

 See Ya Later, Tick Slayer!

Perry

Just recently I had a Tick Slayer write me and tell me about feeling better by drinking better water and she mentioned how she can finally drink the appropriate amount of water without having to urinate all the time.

 Well having to urinate a lot when you have Lyme is understandable.

You pee it out, pooh it out, sweat it out or breath it out (toxins that is). 

When your body is under siege you WILL pee a lot and that’s not a bad thing. Your body has to get rid of this waste. I remember thinking I had bladder problems as I had to pee 4-6 times at night during my ordeal. I was irritated by not being able to sleep at night soundly. But this eventually passed.  Now that I’m in the middle of my entire internal cleanse ( I do once a year), I am peeing at night again, because apparently I’m getting rid of some waste (once again). This is not Lyme related however, this is just the annual build up of toxins I work on releasing once a year.

The other reason why someone would have to pee all the time is simply the type of water. All water IS NOT THE SAME. Yet, it’s absolutely essential to drink plenty of good, clean, natural water.

 The debate on what is considered the best water continues to go on. The truth is the best water is probably up in the Himalayan mountains from glaciers as old as time itself, holding minerals and nutrients …and the molecules are structured the way God intended. 

Okay, but that’s not a likely possibility for any of us.  So what DO we Do?

 Well to get “fancy” water is expensive and it pretty much sucks to have to go buy water all the time.

The cleanest water you can get is probably by having your TAP water tested and placing the correct filters on your entire house (because after all it’s not just what you consume, but what you bath in as well because your body will absorb loads of unfit water when taking a shower or bathing)! Stop adding to the toxic soup you’re making inside of yourself!

 I think reverse osmosis is probably the best way to remove most of the pollution that plagues most tap water. Distilled water has all the good stuff removed as well as the bad. So while it’s clean, it’s missing what real water has. I would not drink loads of distilled water.

 Now if you live by a natural spring, then you have it made!

 But the option for filtering for most people is distilled or reverse osmosis (RO for short).

Forget the carbon filter crap. You will need more than just a charcoal filter. So don’t even think about getting a Brita Filter Pitcher. While it’s better than nothing, you’ll need more.

  The Structure of Good Water and WHY It’s Important To You!

 Now the second thing to think about, after cleanliness, is the actual structure of water. If you’re peeing a lot from drinking loads of water, it is most likely the structure of the water (it’s structure is too large for the body to absorb).  

Every bit of water that comes from the tap and most sources is polluted and the imprint (frequency) of pollution changes the structure of the molecule and this water has damaging frequencies. Remember every molecule on earth is vibrating at a certain frequency. I even wrote about this in my book (www.TheTickSlayer.com) where I talk a little about different researchers believing that illness is basically a battle of frequencies and the research is pretty awesome.

There are loads of gadgets that “microcluster” the water, oxygenate the water (the cheapest is ozone and I LOVE IT), and “charge” the water, or make the water “alkaline.” This is all good, but these gadgets are super expensive, require electricity, and are kind of a pain to use.

So my solution is easy for this WATER issue!

1)You put an RO unit (I like this one) on your entire house. That way the only thing you have to do is change the filters periodically.

2) The next is to put a block of metal that has been “charged” with a frequency that microclusters the water at the same time annulling harmful frequencies in the water. Because even though an RO unit cleans the water, the imprint of the frequency is still there and is damaging. Adding the block solves the final problem.

This is a pretty good set up because it’s cheap and it does the entire house. I’ve been looking into a solution for a long time, but I think this is best and is what I’m currently preparing to do. I’ve been researching this for a long time and the water debate goes on and on (and is still confusing) so I had to figure it out myself.

The block is literally a block of metal and metal because of its density is a GREAT material to “charge.” The technology to charge different objects with different frequencies is out there. I’m dabbling in it and have been testing charged objects on myself (actually I was introduced to it 5 years a go) and it works. 

This block of metal can be taped (yep that’s it) to the pipe coming into your house. The charge on the block charges the pipe and therefore charges the water coming into the pipe. That’s how frequency works. I believe in the future this will be a huge part of our medicine and how we treat people. Probably some futuristic society, but don’t think frequency isn’t being used today for all kinds of things, because it is! You just don’t know about it.

I’ll be talking about using frequency cards in the near future and how you can rub your pain away with them, as well as other uses.

**Hey, if you didn’t already know I wore a frequency necklace during my first triathlon (which I hardly trained for, was under prepared for, drank 8 beers (the night before) and didn’t sleep at all the night before) and came in an “easy” 3^rd place in this huge competition.  I can’t tell you how “chilled” I really was. Read about it here. This means you’re going to be seeing me running with these gadgets on this coming track and field season.

For now, if you don’t have an RO unit yet, you can at least get the block to cluster the water and annul the negative frequencies in your water. 

Email Arden about getting the same block I have (it’s way cheaper and will save you anywhere from 2,000 to 4,000 dollars to do the same thing). I’ll hook you up!            

The fact remains your body is about 60-70% water. You need to drink up. Probably the easiest way to do this is to carry a full gallon of water with you and to make it your goal to finish it everyday (this is what I do). Then you’ll be getting the minimum.

Also keep in my mind your electrolytes need to be balanced as well (read about the importance here) or read about my Beat Lyme newsletter covering this issue! Water dilutes your body’s electrolytes, but if you have your electrolytes balanced, then you can drink away and you’ll get the full benefits of getting the optimum amount of water daily.

You wanna beat Lyme? You better start thinking about all of the essentials for human growth and repair. Drink up!          Have any of these symptoms? Read about Dehydration here. You might be surprised.   

**As a travel water solution- I’m working on a solution since I travel a lot and lots of bottle water is actually contaminated worse than regular tap water.

Reordering My Essentials Today 

I’ve just reorder today minerals, vitamins and a green electrolyte kit. Since I’ve started to train I’ve been using up these essentials even more so…items that weren’t smelling so good before, now smell like cupcakes. Especially the Ammonium Chloride, which makes sense (I had to just reorder 3 bottles of this). Anytime where you’re putting a physical demand on your body (especially over the years), Ammonium Chloride becomes more and more of an absolute essential to that person. Read about Nitrogen Levels Causing Fatigue Here!

But even if you’re not working out hard, anytime there is stress in your life or if you have illness, your body will need even more support with the essentials to keep up homeostasis. There are many doctors who believe that every illness can be traced back to a vitamin or mineral deficiency. And since I’ve been using my kit for well over a year now, I find myself more and more supporting that theory.

Chewing Your Supplements

If you haven’t heard about this, I’ll tell you now. My grandfather (the retired physician) always gets on my case about eating too fast. He has a good point.  It’s true your organs can last for a really long time (at least 120 years) and by slowly eating your food you’re helping all of your organs associated with digestion out (think of it as putting less wear and tear on them). Your digestion begins when you start chewing your food as your saliva starts breaking down your food, but also your brain reacts to everything you eat. By slowing down and really tasting your food, you not only put less wear on your organs, but your brain is acknowledging the nutrients in the food.

Well by tasting your supplements you’re doing the same thing. To get the most out of your supplements start tasting them. Kinesiologist (they study how your body reacts to certain substances and sometimes by testing an individual, they’ll put a supplement in your mouth, lightly placed on your tongue to see how well you respond) always tell their clients to chew their supplements.

If a supplement tastes funny, you don’t have to chew it up (but the best way is to chew it up), you can simply place it on your tongue. Sometimes if a supplement in my smell kit smells really good, I will place that supplement on my tongue and leave it there until it dissolves!

Before runs if I need Ammonium Chloride, I’ll put that on my tongue while I get ready to workout.

And another thing to think about: Everyone’s worried about Lyme in the brain and that can’t be cured. Sure some antibiotics cross the blood brain barrier…but so do nutrients. The right nutrients in the right balance is everyone’s FIRST defense against all types of diseases.

Everyday you’re missing the essentials and not getting the right balance, is a day you’re accelerating your own death.  

*Sorry for the delay in this newsletter. As most of you know, I send a newsletter once a week (usually on Tuesday or Wednesday). The last two weeks have been difficult and I apologize for any delay. My mother’s mom has been sick with colon cancer and she is going to pass away today or tomorrow. We’ve been prepared for this for a while, but I’ve really been struggling to pay attention to everyone’s needs (which means ignore any spelling errors in this newsletter also). No need for anyone to send condolences, this is life. She’s 93 and is actually making her own decisions to pass away now, at home, in her own house, in her own bed. She’s “checking out” (as she describes it) as I’m “checking back in.”   I hope to be as lucky.

See ya later Tick Slayer,
