by Leisa on November 6, 2009

It’s never nice when someone gets harmed by medication – but allowing yourself to be injected with an un-proven, un-tested vaccine (which ironically they ALL are), is just asking for trouble.  This article doesn’t surprise me one bit, and there are going to be hundreds of cases like this or worse.  Hopefully people will start

Pregnancy and Thyroxine

by Leisa on November 4, 2009

I have witnessed first-hand many, many patients who do not do well on T4 replacement therapy (Thyroxine, Oroxine) medication.  In the body, T4 needs to be converted to its active form of T3 before it can perform its actions at a cellular level.  For this to happen we need to have good adrenal function, a

I was very privileged at my last retreat in WA Perth to meet many fantastic people and make some new friends on that side of the country.  There was one very special lady there – Maree – who runs a service called “Animal Action Alert – making a difference for those without a voice”. This

Prozac Plague

by Leisa on October 21, 2009

I am not a fan of anti-depressant usage by any stretch of imagination.  I believe that they can be used extremely carefully in very traumatic situations, short term only – to assist someone who is in a very bad state and is not in a frame of mind to do what it takes to get well
