I often think about the words of a friend of mine who said, " Be true to your beliefs --especially if you believe that the route to success and happiness in life is strive to help others and you will reach your goals as you help others to reach theirs.
When you you also reflect on the efforts of so many people around the world to help others you realize just how true this is.
A perfect example of this is a lady who after she was assaulted by a doctor while confined to a hospital emergency ward went on to help hundreds of other victims of the health care system through a patient advocacy group.
Although she is normally a very soft, loving person she was like a real Canadian wolverine while fighting the protect other victims and help them to find justice.

Combating Osteoarthritis
That is the title of the feature article in the November Alive by Sara Henderson ND and she points out , in addition to ways to fight it, that some 50 percent of persons over the age of 50 suffer from this health problem.
She also highlights some effective non pharmaceutical treatments, which of course only mask symptoms. These are Glucosamine/Chrondroitin, Type II Collagen and Eggshell Membrane.
As she says these, especially, are all promising non-pharmaceutical optins for treating and managing osteoarthrthritis -- which is often made worse by other pharmaceutical medications for treating asthma and pulmonary lung disease.
For more information check out this interesting and informative article. And then, remember what my old swim coach used to tell me, "If you only read about it, but don't master the swim strokes you are still going to drown."
The same thing is true with health care knowledge.
