Winterizing Your Water Garden
W ater gardens are intended to be en
joyed 24/7 and 365 except for leap
years. Seriously, a change of life occurs
when you own a water garden. The sense of
calm and tranquility felt during the warm
months can still be enjoyed during the win-
ter if some simple steps are followed to in-
sure smooth operation and health of your
pond.
Windblown Debris
First of all, there is a lot of organic material
blowing around before and into the first of
winter. You can cover your pond with a net
that will keep the majority of leaves, twigs,
and debris out of the water. Or you can work
a little bit harder and keep air blown debris
skimmed out of the pond. If you have a
skimmer as part of your pond, it still requires
more frequent emptying of the skimmer net.
This simple first step will determine
water quality and other steps that
will need to be followed.
Don’t Feed the Fish!!
Secondly, stop feeding your
fish once the water temperature drops to 52
degrees. The metabolism of fish slows to
an almost stop as temperatures fall. The
main reason for this is that you can cause
great harm or death to the fish by feeding at
this stage. The food consumed will sit inside
the fish which is fed and start to rot the fish
from the inside out. So please don’t feed
your fish during cold weather. They will be
fine for the next 90 to 100 days.
Add Salt? Yes!
Third, it is a really good idea to add non-
iodized salt at 3 pounds per 1000 gallons of
water. This will enhance the slime coat of
the fish which actually protects the fish from
parasites and different types of sickness. The
salt level in your water garden will not
decrease once salt is added. Even during
evaporation the salt stays the same. Only a
change of water will lower salt levels.
However, 3 pounds per 1000 gallons will
not harm plants or the ecological balance
of the pond.
Bacteria? Yes!
The fourth and a very important item to
remember is that bacteria growth slows to a
by Jonathan Castro
halt in production during winter months.
However it will still produce in the early
mild periods of winter. You can apply cool
weather bacteria to the pond to promote its
growth. Bacteria are needed to keep the
algae bloom to a minimum.
Another option during the early and late
winter periods is to use a UV device. This
kills algae as it passes by a sealed ultraviolet
lamp installed on the discharge side of the
pond pump. The cost is moderate compared
to the cost of algaecide over an extended
time period.
Water Color
If the color of your water is too tea-like
for your taste, a particle water charge will
clarify the dark tea tone of organically
saturated pond water. However, you must
use caution. The chlorine in tap water can
be counterproductive to your pond
ecosystem; it can burn the gills of your fish
and otherwise cause stress to them. You will
need to also add a dechlorinator to your
pond when adding potable water.
Underwater Lights
There is a step in the winter that I strongly
suggest to the serious water garden hobbyist:
add under water lights to your pond. The
short winter days make for longer nighttime
hours. We tend to leave and come back to
our homes in the dark. By adding
lights to your pond, you will be
able to enjoy your pond more 24/
7.
While your pond will need
attention, it should not require more
work than pleasure. I once had a Ph.D. tell
me that by leaving your pond alone you
accomplish more than by getting involved
and trying to control the pond ecosystem.
So just take care of these few simple steps,
sit back, and enjoy your water garden year
round. Happy winter gardening!

our industrial diet and our industrial

Better living through chemistry has been
a two-edged sword. We ALL enjoy luxu-
ries, conveniences, time savers, and back-
breaking work savers that are marvelous
blessings. But the bigger, bigger, more,
more model of our modern capitalist soci-
ety has got to have some balance.
The family farm has been dying for a long
time. Our agricultural policies, our seduc-
tion by cheap, fast food, our misguided
overproduction, our disconnect from real
food and the value it has in our lives, and
what it costs to produce it ~ so many fac-
tors have combined to push out small farm-

earn a living.

our North Texas region. We all need to real-
ize the long-term benefits to our families of
eating the high-quality, nourishing food they
produce. We need to support these “war-
riors,” to encourage their children to embrace
and preserve their legacy, and to encourage
more to join their ranks.
We need more small, American family
farms, not fewer. We need to encourage
genuine free trade, between local farmers
and their communities. Join co-ops. Buy their
products directly or through the smaller
health-food stores. Stretch your budget.
Learn to eat less higher quality food rather
than more and more empty processed calo-

Read, get informed, get active, educated
your kids about real food, and talk to farm-
ers when you can. You’ll be glad you did!

Detoxifying Footbaths
An easy, stress-free way to clear the junk out of your body, easy aches & pains,
think clearer, and generally promote better health

I suppose you all may have seen or at least

heard about the segment Channel 8 News
did on detoxifying footbaths. It seems to
have stirred up quite a bit of interest and I
have been getting a lot of questions on the
subject since the news segment aired. I have
been using one in my practice for two years,
so let me attempt to explain a bit about this
effective detoxifier.
The Machine
There are several different makers of the
machines used for the footbaths. At my
office, we use the EB-305, made by
Erchonia Medical. They all do basically the
same thing, though I’m sure the
manufacturers would all insist that theirs is
the best.
The Process
Short anatomy lesson so the rest of this will
make sense: Your skin is an excretory organ.
It is designed to pull toxins from your body
and eliminate them. Your feet have a rich
supply of capillaries (very small blood
vessels), which run close beneath the surface
of the skin.
The free radicals you hear and read so
much about these days are simply chemical
strands that have a positive or negative
charge. They are the leftovers from the
chemicals in the food we eat, things we
drink, and the air we breathe.
The EB-305 (or other similar unit) creates
a microcurrent charge in a warm saltwater
bath that will attract the free radicals from
the capillary beds through the skin and into
the water. Half way through the treatment,
the polarity of the microcurrent changes and
it will pull the oppositely charged free
radicals from your body for the remainder
of the treatment. You might be surprised to
see what a 20- to 25-minute treatment can
pull from your body.
The Benefits
Now why would you want to do this? It
eliminates toxins from your system and will
generally reduce any aches you have and
help you think more clearly. The footbaths
are an easy, stress-free way to clear the junk
out of your body so that it can function as it
should.
How Often?
The number of treatments a person has to
do for results? Most people notice at least a
reduction in the ache of their feet after one
treatment. We offer package deals of 3 and
10 visits. Usually for best results, I suggest
a series of 10 treatments over 3 to 4 weeks.
It all depends on the person’s condition and
what they want to accomplish.
Should you want to take things a step
further, we can provide information on colon
cleanses, nutrition, and even point you in
the direction of products that can reduce the
chemicals you come in contact with.
If you have any questions, please feel free
to call the office for additional information.

• Low birth weight/pre-term babies.
• Poses a serious threat to people whose

• Pain in your mouth
• Your gums ever bleed when you brush your
teeth or when you eat hard food
• Spaces developing between your teeth
• Your gums feel swollen or tender
• Your gums are receding (pulling back from

A Truly Individualized, Integrative Approach to
Your Health Issues Ask about the many wellness resources ~ such as homeopathy and
metabolic testing ~ available to you from nurse practitioners Tom
A classically trained homeopathic
clinician, nurse practitioner Dr. Tom
Newell (he has a clinical doctorate in
nursing), can bring the powerful subtleties
of homeopathic remedies to bear on your
family’s health and wellness issues. Having
practiced in Denton since 1986, Dr. Newell
has a wealth of wisdom and experience in
applying an integrative health-care approach
to each patient, depending on the patient’s
personal choice.
Homeopathy is a proven, gentle method
of augmenting your own immune and
defense system. It is based on the principle
of “similars,” referring to a method that
created profound healing with very small
doses of a substance that could cause the
same symptoms experienced by the sick
person. (Immunizations and allergy
treatments both use the same logic. See Dana
Ullman’s Homeopathy A-Z)
It adheres to the concepts of
individualizing the remedy to the person and
not just to the illness. Homeopathy considers
the whole person, and getting to the root
cause of a problem rather than making the
mistake of suppressing the symptoms.
Suppresion may push the real problem
deeper into the body, only to surface later
and perhaps stronger.
Real healing is a process, and especially
with natural or alternative methods, can take
more time and require some patience. The
father of American homeopathy, a German
physician named Constantine Hering, M.D.,
developed guidelines to determine when a
real healing is taking place ~ “Hering’s laws
of cure.” (See Dana Ullman’s Homeopathy
A-Z)
The trick to making homeopathic
depleted soils, according to the above
quoted article. WHO has determined that
there should be at least 30 ppm calcium and
10 ppm magnesium in the water in order to
be healthful drinking water. If things were
done according to WHO, the lowest TDS
purified water could have would be 50 ppm.
But any water over about 25 ppm is cloudy
when frozen, giving the indication of
contaminants. Bureaucracies run best on
confusion. How about passing a law that
states that if a person buys water that is
below 10 ppm, they are required to be on
double Daylight Savings Time? That would
Newell and Gina Pritchard, and find out why some refer to them as
“the best kept secret in Denton.”
Dr. Tom Newell
remedies work is to find the individualized
remedy that most closely fits the symptoms
that the patient is experiencing. There are
the “classical” single-substance remedies,
and the commercial “combination”
remedies, the latter being those often found
in health-food stores and pharmacies.
Combinations have limitations, but both
kinds have their place.
Due to the nature of the integrative health-
care approach of NTHWC, Dr. Newell
cannot take the extensive time necessary to
practice true “constitutional” homeopathy,
but he can bring the power and safety of
homeopathy to bear on acute conditions or
problems.
Metabolic Testing
“We do metabolic testing using saliva,
urine, and blood to individualize treatment
recommendations, supplements, or
medications,” explains Gina Pritchard, a
highly experienced, board certified acute-
be fun. If calcium and magnesium are added
to the water, then how does the person who
shouldn’t have minerals obtain the water he
needs?
FDA & Chemical Waste
Regulatory intervention in this issue is a
serious concern. We have seen in the past
with fluoride what a serious consequence it
has been to add fluoride to the water supply.
One of the big problems is that the FDA will
only allow pharmaceutical grade additions
to the water and in the case of fluoride how
do you obtain a pharmaceutical grade

supplements to reduce cravings and balance

Physically “Stuck” Memories and
Emotions Can Manifest as Physical
Ailments and Addictive Behaviors
One of only about 300 NET practitioners in the world, Dr. Jan Nix talks about the
emotional factor in your physical and behavioral well-being.

by Jan Nix, DC unresolved emotional traumas correspond

A re you dreaming of the “perfect”
Christmas – no rushing, everybody
happy, everything ready, being relaxed ~ like
an old Norman Rockwell portrait?
Are you disappointed year
after year? Do you feel that no
matter what you do, year after
year, you fall into the same
habits and behaviors ~ like
telling yourself that you will not
over-indulge in sweets or alcohol
or spending? Then, you finally
“wake up” after the party or after
Christmas and start beating yourself up,
because you failed once again.
Guess what? It’s not your fault ~ not your
failure ~ it’s your stored memories and
emotions that have “preprogrammed” your
behaviors. Memories and emotional
expressions are part of “normal” life
experiences. The problematic or traumatic
ones stem from the times that the “normal”
processing of emotions is interrupted, or not
allowed by parental or societal constraints.
The Power of the Emotional Factor
Emotions have a physiological response!
Your brain releases a very specific chemical
with each different emotion. These little
neurotransmitters circulate through the
blood stream. Thus, these emotions/
chemicals are often stored in the cells of
some part of your body when there is
unresolved emotional trauma. When these
to an acupuncture meridian, or neurological
deficit, they cause a physiological/
pathological-related pattern in the cellular
tissues of the body. This is called a neuro-
emotional complex (or NEC).
NET (or Neuro Emotional
Technique TM) recognizes the
strong relationship between the
body’s structural integrity,
nutritional balance, environ-
mental toxicity, and emotional
health. It is based on a proven
combination of the latest
scientific research with centuries
old techniques used in traditional Oriental
medicine and applied kinesiology.
Certified NET practitioners make use of
the neuro-mechanisms of speech, general
semantics, emotions, acupuncture and
chiropractic principles, laws of the meridian
system, cutaneous reflex points, principles
of traditional psychology, and much more.
I am one of only about 300 certified NET
practitioners in the world. In my practice, I
have truly been impressed with the power
of the often-unrecognized emotional factor
in seeking physical health, balance, and
general well-being.
Identifying & Releasing “Stuck”
Emotions
NET helps the patient to normalize the
pattern by causing a physiological change.
This is affected by applying a light force
(with the activator) to a specific spinal level
associated with the corresponding
acupuncture meridian, or by stimulating the
appropriate acupuncture pulse points and
various reflexes.
NET does not involve any of the
psychological aspects, nor is it a
replacement for counseling. It does work
well with counseling and other disciplines.
NECs can contribute to destructive and/or
addictive behaviors, making NET an
appropriate and effective tool in such cases.
Can NET Help You?
Wondering how to know if NET may help
you or not? Is every part of your life exactly
what you want it to be – your dream job, a
wonderful and satisfying family/
relationship, financial security, good health?
If not, then there is a huge likelihood that
you have NECs contributing to your
unfulfilled level of success and/or
happiness, and NET could be the key to
moving you closer to achieving your goals
and dreams.
NET has helped thousands of people
around the world. While the technique was
first used by chiropractors, it has crossed
into many other disciplines, and is used by
psychiatrists, counselors, acupuncturists,
dentists, medical doctors.
The reasons patients seek NET are as
varied as the people – for infertility issues,
job success, weight loss, allergies, etc. Call
the office to schedule a consult to find out
if NET can help you achieve what you want
in your life.

 “A Doctor’s Confession to the Town of Flower Mound…”
And why, despite all, I still do what I do…
Dear friend,
Confessions are tough. Real tough. But, sometimes a
confession can set the record straight, and I want to give
credit where credit is due. Before I talk about my confes-
sion, though, let me say a few other things first. Let me
start by explaining the photo in this letter. I’m the one in
the middle and that’s my husband beside me. Let me tell
you my story.
Years ago something happened to me that changed my
life forever.
“I remember like it was yesterday, although I was just in
high school at the time. It was the day I got hired to work
for this incredible man. The more we talk and the more I
learn about him, the more I get interested in what he tells
me. He tells me how excited he is to go to work everyday
and how passionate he is about his job. He loves seeing
kids, families and all kinds of people come to see him.
And, that’s not all…
You see, this incredible man is a doctor, but not just any
doctor. He tells me that his type of doctor has a very dif-
ferent way of looking at health. They understand that the
body knows how to heal itself, and because of that these
doctors do not use drugs or surgery at all. But, there’s
more…
He tells me stories about kids that were really sick, and
got help nowhere else, getting well. He tells me stories of
people with terrible migraines that get well. He talks
about people crawling in and walking out. I can tell he
makes a positive impact on their lives and that they all
love him for the miracles they see happening. By the
way, this amazing doctor is a Chiropractor.
After hearing my new boss’ story I am fascinated and
impressed. It was soon after that I begin to witness all of
these wonderful testimonies of his patients. I am so
touched by what chiropractic has done for these patients
that I eventually decide to go to chiropractic school
myself. Now, I, too, am a chiropractor. And, you know
what? I’ve never looked back; it was the best thing that
I’ve ever done. I have the best job in the world. And,
that’s how it happened!”
Now for Michael and Alaina, they are twins and were
born at 26 1/2 weeks and spent their first 3 1/2 years of life
in and out of the hospital. They were taking medications
three times a day everyday! Their parents were very tired
of always being in the pediatricians office taking medica-
tions and thought that there had to be a better way. That’s
when they decided to try chiropractic. Alaina suffered
from attention deficit tendencies, asthma and was taking
medications regularly. After getting adjusted not only has
she been able to focus better and doesn’t struggle like she
used to, but her asthma is no longer an issue and is off of
all her medications! Michael also struggled with asthma
and motor development issues. He was born with emphy-
sema, a collapsed lung and suffered from a misaligned rib
cage. After getting regular chiropractic adjustments, he is
Stone Creek Family Chiropractic
Stone Creek Plaza • Morriss Rd. & FM 3040 • FLOWER MOUND
off all of his medications, including his steroids for his
asthma and has grown 3 inches in a year and a half. His
motor development problems continue to improve. They
are now both happy and healthy and not riddled with
being sick and taking medications all the time! Their
mom, Shannon also states that “chiropractic has also ben-
efited us financially by saving us money! We no longer
spend $400 a month on prescription medications. If the
twins do get sick it never lasts long and is not as severe,
they recover much faster and don’t have to take all those
medications.”
It’s strange how life is, because now children come to see
me for asthma and childhood illnesses. Also they come to
me with their headaches, migraines, chronic pain, neck
pain, shoulder/arm pain, whiplash from car accidents,
backaches, ear infections, asthma, allergies, numbness in
limbs, athletic injuries, just to name a few.
Several times a day patients thank me for helping them
with their health problems. But I can’t really take the
credit. My confession is that I’ve never healed anyone of
anything. What I do is perform a specific spinal adjust-
ment to remove nerve pressure, and the body responds by
healing itself. We get tremendous results. It’s as simple
as that!
Being a chiropractor can be tough, because there’s a host
of so-called experts out there. They tell people a lot of
things that are just plain ridiculous about my profession.
But the studies speak for themselves, like the Virginia
study that showed that over 90% of patients who saw a
chiropractor were satisfied with their results. That’s just
incredible!
Forty-eight million Americans no longer have health
insurance, and those who do have found that their bene-
fits are reduced. That’s where chiropractic comes in.
Many people find that they actually save money on their
health care expenses by seeing a chiropractor. Another
way to save…studies show that chiropractic may double
your immune capacity, naturally and without drugs. The
immune system fights colds, the flu, and other sickness-
es. So you may not be running off to the doctor as much.
This is especially important if you are self-employed.

you could pay for one visit elsewhere.
You Benefit from an Amazing Offer - Look, it should-

$37 out of pocket. That’s with x-rays, computerized
scan….the whole ball of wax. This exam could cost you
up to $250 elsewhere. And, further care is very affordable
and you’ll be happy to know that We have affordable
family plans and we file insurance. You see I’m not try-
ing to seduce you to come see me with this low start up
fee, then to only make it up with high fees after that.
Further care is very important to consider when making
your choice of doctor. High costs can add up very
quickly.
Great care at a great fee…Please, I hope that there’s no
misunderstanding about quality of care just because I
have a lower exam fee. You’ll get great care at a great fee.
And best of all our office has one of the only computer-
ized adjusting machines in the area. This computer can
show you your improvements immediately on the screen.
Your spine gets adjusted without hearing any “cracking”
sound. It’s awesome.
My qualifications…I did my undergraduate studies in
Kinesiology and Health Sciences in Ontario, Canada. I’m
a graduate of Parker Chiropractic College from right here
in Dallas and have advanced training in prenatal and pedi-
atric care. My husband and I practiced in Southern
California seeing thousands of patients and then we
moved our practice to Flower Mound over two years ago.
We’ve been entrusted to take care of tiny babies to some
movie stars that you may know. We just have that low
exam fee to help more people who need care. Our office
was voted #1 Chiropractor in Denton County for the 2nd
year in a row.
Our assistants names are Barbara, Bethany and Marilyn. I
practice with my wonderful husband, Dr. Steven Le and
they’re awesome!
Our office is both friendly and warm and we try our best
to make you feel at home. We have a wonderful service,
at an exceptional fee. Our office is called STONE
CREEK FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC and is at 2200
Morriss Road, Ste 200 (we are in Stone Creek Plaza at
Morriss Road and FM 3040). Our phone number is 972-
874-7554. Call today for an appointment. We can help
you. Thank you.

Medical Infrared
Thermography ~ A Safe,
Effective Diagnostic Tool
for Earlier Detection of
Breast Cancer and Other
Breast Abnormalities
Women of all ages can be proactive
about breast, thyroid, hormonal,
and other health
issues by taking
advantage of
safe, painless,
computerized
thermal imaging
screening.
Interview with Dr. Shawn Sieracki, ND
Who Should Have Breast Thermo-
graphy Screening?
Thermography is for any woman who
would rather not endure the discomfort and/
or radiation of a mammogram, if not
medically necessary. Thermography is
especially appropriate for younger women
between 20 & 50 whose denser breast tissue
or implant makes it more difficult for
mammography to pick up suspicious lesions.
The thermography session can provide a
‘clinical marker’ to the patient’s doctor or
mammographer that a specific area of the
breast needs particularly close examination.

How Does Thermography Compare

With Mammography?
Mammography is an 85-year-old
technology that actually misses more breast
cancer than it finds. In fact, by the time
mammography finds a breast cancer, it has
already missed it in two other women.
Because mammography cannot accurately
differentiate between a benign problem and
a breast cancer, mammography will lead to
over 1,000,000 unnecessary, costly, and
painful breast biopsies each year. The value
of mammography is also seriously limited
in young breasts, women with breast
implants, and women with fibrous breasts.

(continued from pg. 14) Medical Infrared Thermography
Breast thermography’s role in breast
cancer and other breast disorders is to help
in early detection and monitoring of
abnormal physiology and the establishment
of risk factors for the development or
existence of cancer. When used with other
procedures, the best possible evaluation of
breast health is made. This 15-minute, non-
invasive test is a valuable procedure for
alerting your general practitioner,
chiropractor, or specialist to the possibility
of underlying breast disease.
Breast thermography is designed to
improve chances for detecting fast-growing,
active tumors in the intervals between
mammographic screenings or when
mammography is not indicated by screening
guidelines for women under 50 years of age.
The medical community does not yet know
(continued from pg. 9) The Debate About Minerals in Water ~ Part II
Michaud, “Between 1957 and 2003, more
than 80 research studies were conducted
comparing the incidence of CVD
(cardiovascular disease) and the
consumption of soft water. Almost every one
of those studies showed an inverse
correlation linking the lack of calcium and
magnesium in drinking water and increased
CVD (with best correlation shown between
magnesium and CVD).” And elsewhere in
the same article it was stated, “Calcium and
magnesium in water has the same bio-
availability as from milk.” You don’t have
to drink water with calcium and magnesium

how to prevent breast cancer. However, you
can increase your chances of detecting
breast cancer in its earliest stages by
understanding the need for, and participating
in, an early detection program. Only about
20 percent of biopsied breast lumps are
cancerous. And, if cancer is found early,
there are choices for treatment.
Is Infrared Breast Thermography Useful For
Conditions Other Than Possible Breast
Cancer?
Yes. A client came into our office in
January and then did a follow-up in May.
By comparing the two thermograms, we
determined that the client was estrogen
dominant and progesterone deficient. The
client had been medically diagnosed with a
thyroid condition and was taking a medical
in it but you do need to obtain calcium and
magnesium from some source.
Bottled water producers are concerned
about providing water that, number one,
removes known harmful contaminates such
as: chlorine and its derivatives like THM,
like chloroform; sodium; fluoride; lead; and
a host of other contaminates commonly
found in water, plus contaminates that are
not commonly found. Also of importance is
to have in place a system to remove things
we commonly do not have in the water but
may be added in the future by terrorists from
outside our country or those contaminants

Corn Walking
Mexico’s Mayan descendants have referred
to themselves as “corn walking,” due to their
dependance on the cultivated version of the
giant tropical grass Zea mays.
Did you know that biologists can identify
the stable isotopes of carbon in human tissue
and connect them with the original plant that
brought that isotope into the food chain? As a
C-4 plant, corn is especially easy to identify,
even after the carbon atoms it recruits have
“been transformed into things like Gatorade
and Ring Dings and hamburgers, not to men-
tion the human bodies nourished on those
things.”
So explains Michael Pollan in his very edu-
cational and delightfully written Omnivore’s
Dilemma ~ A Natural History of Four Meals.
A Berkeley biologist told Pollan that today’s
American looks “like corn chips with legs,”
while today’s Mexican still eats grass-fed ani-
mals, gets much protein from legumes, and
drinks beverages sweetened with cane sugar.
We Americans have become “processed corn
walking.” Corn feeds our beef, our dairy cows,
our chickens (and our eggs), our goats, our
farmed fish, and even our cars (ethanol). High-
fructose corn sweetener (HFCS) is in almost
everything, including sodas, fast-food shakes,
meat patties, ketchup, breads, dressings,
sauces, and so on. Other corn ingredients in-
clude oils, binders, emulsifiers, fillers. Corn
skin is processed into various vitamins and
nutritional supplements. Even the reformulated
“white meat” McNugget requires 38 ingredi-
ents, at least 13 of which can be derived from
corn.
Pollan’s book is an easy, entertaining, though
also disturbing, read. It’s a book to be read
with the whole family, to (as we used to sing)
“teach your children well” about the ocean of
corn that floats our modern world, the broken
grass connection that sustainable agriculture
is trying to fix, our post-WWII chemical world,
sun-fed versus petroleum-fed food, pastoral
vs. industrial organics, and even the virtues of
the hunted and gathered meal.
Pollan explains how corn “won over the
wheat people” as Americans traveled west-
ward over the mountains. Corn’s endless ver-
satility and ability to be dried or distilled into
easily transported forms allowed it to become
both food and commodity.
Along came hybrid corn, and now geneti-
cally modified corn, that renders farmers de-

Talks With Peggy Mills
Over 40 years of experience with the foundations of
health ~ cleansing and nutrition ~ have made Peggy Mills
an invaluable resource for this region. See her article on
the most effective natural remedies for parasites in us
and our animals in Issue 5 which is available on line.

Acidophilus ~ Friendly Flora!

I n this article, I would like to talk about acidophilus ~ probiotic, pro-
life, friendly flora ~ and the wonderful benefits from taking this
supplement.
We all need to realize acidophilus’s importance in helping to re-
populate the intestinal tract with healthy flora. These bacteria are
friendly microorganisms which naturally inhabit the intestinal tract,
aiding digestion and absorption of nutrients, as well as enhancing our
immune function.
If we drink caffeine, coffee, carbonated drinks, or take medications,
these kill our friendly flora. Acidophilus bacteria flourish in the small
intestines, where they assist in the production of enzymes, and stimu-
late enzyme activity, enhancing greater assimilation of nutrients, and
increasing our energy.
Lactase and B Vitamins
Acidophilus produces acidophilin (a natural antibiotic substance),
lactase (the enzyme responsible for digesting lactose), and certain B-
complex vitamins (B1, B2, B12), which increase our energy. Acido-
philus is the most plentiful source of B12, biotin, folic acid, and Vita-
min K, which is essential for blood clotting, and for the production of
osteocalcin, the primary protein component of bone.
Inhibits Candida and Putrefac-
tive Bacteria
Candida is a big problem in our so-
ciety, as sugar seems to be in every-
thing and candida flourishes when being fed sugar. Acidophilus inhib-
its the overgrowth of harmful intestinal microorganisms, such as can-
dida and the putrefactive bacteria which causes flatulence and putre-
faction in the colon. Acidophilus protects the intestinal mucosa, helps
prevent constipation and diarrhea, enhances bowel elimination as well
as aids digestion, assists in metabolizing calcium, and provides essen-
tial nutrients for building the blood.
Controls Serum Cholesterol Build-up
It controls the build-up of serum cholesterol and stimulates the body’s
immune system by assisting white blood cells in fighting disease-caus-
ing pathogens.
Sickness or Cleanses
Have you recently had antibiotic therapy? Colonic treatments? Had
diarrhea, enemas, or colon cleansing like our Royal Flush? All of these
can kill or deplete friendly flora, and you should consider taking a
good acidophilus.

Tired of standing in line? What to Look For and When to Take It

Staying Healthy Through Holiday
Stress and Winter Weather!
Dr. Laura Kukucsca Le, DC, and Dr. Steven Le, DC can
help your immune system battle the challenges of holiday
stress, goodies, and winter illnesses with their overall
wellness program.
R egular trips to the chiropractor, proper nutrition, and exercise
make a good combination for helping your body deal with the
hustle and bustle of the holidays and the challenges of winter weather
and a new year.
Stress really affects a lot of people during the holidays, and taking
care of yourself during this time is very important, because the
long-term effects of stress can last long into the new year. Keeping
your health on track decreases your chances of getting sick at a
time when your immune system is truly challenged.
A Healthy Nervous System
The nervous system is the master system of the
body. It controls all of your other systems and is
protected by your spine. It is always important to
make sure that your nervous system is healthy and that your spine
is in its best alignment! Chiropractic is not just for occasional
injuries. It is a lifestyle and wellness tool to help prevent illness
and promote overall vibrant health.
Everyday activities and stress (and especially holiday and winter
stress) cause spinal misalignments, joint-motion reduction, and
nervous-system blockages. Regular check-ups and “tune-ups” are
as important to the body as they are to a car, and can prevent and
help treat many ailments such as allergies and asthma.
Care for the Whole Family
Stone Creek uses a number of gentle
adjustment techniques appropriate for the

and has continued to receive regular care.

It is highly effective in correcting breach presentations.
Advanced & Affordable
One of Stone Creek’s special tools is the Pro-Adjuster, which is
one of the most advanced pieces of chiropractic evaluation and
treatment equipment in existence today. The computerized
instrument can analyze how much motion is in each vertebra, and
can comfortably and accurately deliver measured adjustments. Dr.
Steve Le says, “Speed is important. It’s all about physics.”
Stone Creek offers special family rates that make regular,
preventive chiropractic wellness care affordable and practical, and
the office works with people regarding fee payments when
necessary. It is part of their mission to help as many families as
possible.
Free Community Education
Another part of the doctors’ mission is to help educate their
community in wellness and healthy lifestyle choices. Dr. Laura
speaks regularly on topics such as allergies and asthma, arthritis,
nutritional food and supplementation, losing weight naturally, the
dangers of prescription drugs, and more.
The talks and dinners are free. They require only a reservation
and are open to anyone.

The “You Won’t Believe It ‘Til You Try Them”
Shoes, for People in Every “Walk” of Life!
P eople who work on their feet a lot (or
all day) ~ people who have joint
problems and joint replacements ~ people
with back problems, posture problems, or
who get fatigued when walking ~ people
who workout with walking or running or
bouncing, who want to reduce impact to
avoid joint problems ~ people who have to
work on hard surfaces all day or carry heavy
loads ~ dancers ~ exercise instructors ~ even
surgeons ~ need the daily advantage of the
amazing properties of Z-Coil
shoes! And the personal
experience and expertise of Terri
Hernandez!
Terri has been a Z-Coil
distributor, and now
storeowner, for the past 4½
years. These are her “miracle shoes.” When
she first tried them on, “It was instant pain
relief,” she emphasizes. “I went from a 10++
to a 3 on the pain scale in a matter of
seconds. I could stand up and walk and I
could stay standing as long as I wanted to.
In two days, my pain dropped to the zero
level.” Now she savors the moment when
each new customer tries on their first pair
of shoes. “You can see the relief in their
face.”
“Unloads Your Back”
Employees of the Texas Back Institute
wear Z-Coils. Dr. Stephen Hochschuler
actually operates in them, for both comfort
and stability. “They unload your back,” he
stated for a television interview about Z-
Coils.
Key factors are the significant impact
reduction and energy return of the coil, the
rigid support and foot cradling of the
customized, medical-grade orthotic, the
proper flex point, and the forward
cushioning.
Whether a running or walking shoe, a
work boot, a hiking boot, a clog, or a sandal,
each style has special features that add to
the design and value for its wearer. These
shoes are built to last a long, long time, and
so are an excellent value, especially because
they reduce or eliminate pain and pain
medication, increase circulation, increase
movement, allow for action and weight loss,
proper posture, increased stability, and
better weight distribution.

They especially help people with join pain,
arthritis, diabetes, overweight, heel spurs,
sciatica, plantar fasciattis, or Achilles tendon
injuries. They help both athletes and
working people such as nurses, postal
workers, mechanics, or store salespersons.
You may even be able to get a prescription
from your doctor, podiatrist, or chiropractor,
and get help from your
employer and/or your
insurance plan.
A Few Testimonies
Jean Heney has worked on her
feet in health food and nutrition stores for
years. She now also helps us at Health
Around Your Corner, while working part-
time at Peak Nutrition. The picture shows
Jean testing her Z-Coil sandals for the first
time, over rocks to
demonstrate stabil-
ity. This is her
testimony:
I was quite
skeptical of these
shoes at first because
I had worn orthotics
for over 20 years,
and it seemed to me that these shoes could
not possibly take their place. My feet rolled
to the inside when I walked, and the
orthotics would support my feet in such a
way that I would not experience tired feet
at the end of the day as much as without
them.
Terri seemed to know a lot about feet when
she saw me walk, so I trusted her judgment
and bought a pair of shoes. To my
amazement, after a couple of days of getting
used to the feel, I didn’t even seem to notice
that I had feet at the end of the day!
It has been almost a month now with these
shoes and I can truly say that I haven’t
missed the orthotics at all, and my feet are
good to go from morning until night!
Anne Hill, manager of Peak Nutrition in
Carrollton, has also worked in health food
and nutrition stores for many years. This is
her testimony:
Recently I went to the State Fair, walked
all day, and by the end of the day was
surprised at the stamina I had to keep up
with two younger people. Knowing that it
all had to do with the Z-Coil shoes I had
Terri’s new store one block east of
Midway on the south side of I-635.
worn for almost two and one-half years, I
was most appreciative of the three people
who had separately introduced me to these
shoes while I was working.
Since I was 10 years old, I was aware that
one foot was longer than the other. Two
years ago, finding myself overweight, and
61 years old, foot pronation was also
causing a problem. Standing all day on the
job with no relief caused knee, ankle and
foot pain.
One of the three people who introduced
me to these shoes suggested that I needed
to go see Terri because she had a talent for
knowing just what a person needs. Was she
ever right about that! Terri watches the way
you walk and can adjust the shoe to fit your
particular problem.
After purchasing the shoes and being
fitted properly by Terri Hernandez, I was
able to be on my feet until around 4:00 p.m.,
tired, but not in total pain like I was before.
Previously, I could last on my feet only until
around 11:00 a.m.
I continue to get my shoes adjusted
periodically by Terri. I want everyone to
know what a treasure we have in this area
in her store, her knowledge and expertise,
her experience, and her own personal Z-
Coil testimony. But to Terri, this is truly a
ministry, and IT SHOWS.
Go see Terri Hernandez today in her new
Dallas store and try on a pair of her “miracle
shoes” for yourself!

Osteoporosis ~ The Right Test and Treatment
Early is the Answer by Juanee Surprise
NOTE: Dr. Surprise is nationally recognized as an expert in nutrition and pain management. She teaches
postgraduate nutrition and pain management courses to doctors and staff. She has been interviewed for
many articles in various journals and publications and has published several articles on nutrition. Pa-
tients from many states consult with her for help on a variety of health issues.
By definition, osteoporosis is “a systemic
skeletal disease characterized by low bone
mass and mircoarchitectural deterioration of
bone tissue, with a consequent increase in
bone tissue fragility and susceptibility to
fractures,” according to the Consensus
Development Statement in Osteoporosis Int
1997:7:1-5.
Osteoporosis is a silent disease, often
asymptomatic until fractures occur and early
diagnosis and treatment are essential. But
the medical model uses diagnostic testing
that, for the most part, only picks up a
problem AFTER the bone loss is significant.
Failure of Medical Model
For years now the osteoporosis
information given to the public makes it
seem that developing osteoporosis is
inevitable for the 12 million Americans
afflicted. Emphasis has been on the genetic
factors leading to increased risk which are
being female, white or Asian race, thin or
low peak bone mass and a family history of
fractures with a medical risk of menopause
and glucocorticoid, thyroid and growth
hormone use along with lifestyle factors of

Water’s Purpose in Your Body
H ere are just some of the things water
does for your body: maintains body
temperature, aids in digestion, metabolizes
fat, lubricates organs, protects organs and tis-
sues, transports nutrients and oxygen
throughout the body, carries waste away
from cells, flushes out toxins, and lubricates
joints and eyes.
Your body needs water for the following
reasons:
Skin ~ Skin becomes dry and cracked with-
out enough water. Your skin is the ain con-
duit for releasing water from your body.
Blood ~ Blood is 92% water. Your blood
gets thicker when you are lacking water. This
makes it difficult for your heart to pump. The
water we lose through sweating comes from
blood plasma. Plasma is the vehicle for red
blood cells which contain the oxygen that
muscles need in order to perform work. As
you become dehydrated, your total blood

excessive alcohol use, smoking, lack of
exercise and low calcium and vitamin D
intake.
This information has failed to mention
there are at least 17 nutrients associated with
bone health and that the recommended high
doses of calcium imbalances magnesium
which is now the most common mineral
deficiency in the US and the cause of a host
of other health problems. And, lack of
regular exercise has been mentioned but also
not emphasized.
Also, while there has been some talk that
diet in adolescence and the teen years is
important for osteoporosis prevention,
emphasis has not been place on the FACTS.
The importance of other nutrients, not just
calcium and a good, non-junk-food diet in
childhood and teen years has not been
adequately explained or emphasized.
Bone Density in Adolescence!
Most parents are not aware that 50% of
skeletal (bone) mass is accrued during
adolescence and that in girls, 95% of total
bone mineral density is accumulate by age
17.4 with only an additional 4% added by

Koltes
volume is reduced, and the oxygen-carrying
capability of your blood decreases.
Joints and Bones ~ Water is a lubri-
cant between bones. When your body lacks
enough water, your bones may rub against
each other and become brittle.
Kidneys ~ The kidneys need water to re-
move toxins, wastes and salt from the blood.
A lack of water can also increase the chances
for kidney stones.
Liver ~ The liver uses water to metabolize
fat. However, if wat er is in short supply the
lvier will be used to help the kidney instead
of doing the normal job.
Digestion ~ Water is used to aid the diges-
tive tract. With a lack of water the digestive
organs have to work harder and become
strained. This results in constipation and
abdominal cramps.
Brain ~ Without water, the body loses nu-
trients flowing to the brain. Water is also a
age 26.2. A childhood diet inadequate in
all of the bone nutrients including protein,
magnesium, trace minerals and vitamins B,
C and D, leave young women lacking in
bone density by age 17.
Bone density naturally begins to decline
after age 30, so that by menopause women
are already suffering from significant bone
loss and the accelerated bone loss in the
immediate menopause years is the “straw
that breaks the camel’s back” ~ literally. It
is also documented that children inadequate
in calcium may also be low in Vitamin A,
folate, Vitamins B2 & B6, magnesium and
potassium, leading not only to bone density
problems but many other health issues as
well.
Nutrient-Rich Diet from Infancy!
So, the answer to the osteoporosis
epidemic is not Fosamax, floride or more
calcium. It is a healthy, nutrient rich diet
from infancy on. Soda, very high protein and

 Thank You for Making Healthful Living
a Priority... life-changing
A testimony by Tammara Hunt about the
effect of the organic co-op
...and a message and a holiday recipe from
Monica Brown
Monica Brown has 40+ Organic Produce Co-Ops all over the DFW Metroplex
and north to the Red River ~ For information call 817-793-3509 • See
Monica’s story on our HAYC web site. Every issue, we send some 800 or so
magazines to Monica for each co-op member
T he organic produce co-op has made a significant change for
my family. My husband and I have both lost a size (and my
husband really wasn’t trying too). Also, both of us have an increase
in energy. My husband said he didn’t even realize he didn’t have
any energy until he had energy. Amazing! He has always been
athletic and is working out even more. I finally have the energy to
start working out. So after doing my research, and trying out
different things, I am finally ready to start trying to put it all together
~ at the same time.
Whole Grains and Portion Size
As for the whole grains, we had stopped for a bit with our recent
move, and were eating out a lot and buying convenience foods
from the grocery store. Amazing! Do you know there are places
we can’t eat at now? There are some restaurants we use to frequent,
but the food gives us headaches now. And I, trying to switch it up,
bought some white bread from the grocery store to make some
sandwiches ~ and guess what we noticed? My husband
automatically ate two sandwiches when made with white
bread. When I make whole grain bread, he can barely get through
one sandwich. My husband did not even notice. I hadn’t really
noticed either, but there it was.
I said, “Anthony, did you notice you ate two sandwiches? I
realized that when I started making whole wheat bread, you could
barely eat one, but you just ate two sandwiches. I realized when I
used to prepare you sandwiches on white bread before, I
automatically made you two sandwiches for lunch.”
So, Monica, what I realized is that even though I always thought
I ate pretty well, I probably had a problem with portion size and
didn’t realize it! Just like my husband could eat two sandwiches
and not even realize it! WOW!
The Cracker Test
Then there was another reminder. When I make soup, I may put
it on top of brown rice and that’s it. Well, you know, when I did not
use brown rice and we had crackers in the pantry (you know the
ones that have four wrapped packages inside the box you get from
the grocery store?), well, Anthony would eat one whole pack of
crackers all by himself!
It’s no wonder there is so much obesity and disease in this
country. Many of the conventional foods we eat are providing
calories, but little if any nutritional value when compared to whole
foods. And it’s legal! And what I realized is that even though the
effect on us may be different, it does affect us. For me, you can
“see” the effect because I guess my body just said enough is enough
and it finally showed up in my weight gain. With others, you may
not see the effect, but they ”know” it is effecting them because of
the medications or doctor’s appointments they endure.
Thank you so much for allowing God to use you to educate us,
Monica Brown
and serve us the way you do. You very well may have a direct effect
on growing the kingdom, as better health will allow us to serve
Him better!
Tammara Hunt
T hanks to you all! Jim and I wanted to let you all know how
much we appreciate the efforts that are going on all over North
Central Texas to make health and healthful living the norm rather
than the exception. Not so long ago, we felt alone in our endeavors
to lead a healthier lifestyle. I remember when we knew only one
other family that was bent on becoming characterized by better
health choices. Now, we are blessed to know so many. We are in a
constant growth mode and are learning new things from the
cumulative knowledge of the Health Source Co-op Members. You
are such an encouragement to us and a great encouragement to our
children.
Right now, as I write this article, I have a kitchen full of children
(2 of my own and 3 of a dear friend’s). The children are making
Gingerbread Spice Cake. Gingerbread was a favorite of mine while
growing up. The spices involved in the recipe make a house smell
like home. If you haven’t branched out and tried natural, unrefined
sweeteners, may I encourage you to try some today. Make it a goal
to inch refined products out of your kitchen, or at least to minimize
their use. The children used freshly milled flour, healthy pastured
eggs, unrefined sweeteners, and lots of giggles and excitement to
pull together this yummy recipe. I hope you enjoy it, too!

What is sleep apnea?
In some people, the windpipe that brings
air into the body is blocked during sleep.
This keeps the lungs from getting enough
air. This is called obstructive sleep apnea.
People who have sleep apnea stop breathing
for 10 to 30 seconds at a time while they
are sleeping. These stops can happen up to
400 times every night. The consequences of
these disturbances can be serious and
sometimes life-threatening. People with
sleep apnea have higher chances of serious
health problems like diabetes, high blood
pressure, heart disease, stroke and obesity.
Treating sleep apnea can improve these
problems, as well as a person’s overall
quality of life. It has been shown to lower
blood pressure, improve glucose control and
increase energy throughout the day in people
with diabetes.

What is treatment like?
There are several treatments available for
OSA, however most doctors recommend a
continuous positive airway pressure
(CPAP) device. A CPAP device has a mask,
tubes and a fan. It uses air pressure to push
your tongue forward and open your throat.
This allows air to pass through your throat.
It reduces snoring and prevents apnea
disturbances. Of the available treatment
options, PAP therapy is the safest and most
effective. People on PAP therapy have
reduced health risks and more energy to do
the things they want to do.
You should put your CPAP device on
whenever you sleep, even for naps. A CPAP
device does not cure sleep apnea. But, when
you use the device correctly, your sleep
problems should get much better.

But there is also that problem of supply,
which was addressed in a cover story by Diane
Brady on October 16, 2006, in Business Week,
titled “The Organic Myth.” She mentions the
industrial-scale feedlots and the scarcity of
organic ingredients which “means looking as
far afield as China, Sierra Leone, and Brazil ~
places where standards may be hard to enforce,
[and] workers’ wages and living conditions are
a worry....” Stonyfield gets strawberries from
China, apple puree from Turkey, blueberries
from Canada, and bananas from Equador, she
writes, and is looking at importing organic milk
powder from New Zealand. “Shipping milk
powder 9,000 miles across the planet is the
price you pay to conquer the supermarket dairy
aisle,” she writes. She quotes the Stonyfield
CEO lamenting that it “’would be great to get
all of our food within a 10-mile radius of our
house, but once you’re in organic, you have
to source globally.’” (continued on pg. 45)

Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine!
We look forward to a close relationship with Phillip Bellows,
DC, L.Ac., Dipl. Ac. (NCCAOM), from Texoma Oriental Medicine.
Dr. Bellows began seeing clients at the Spa on December 5, 2006.
Practicing since 1992, he has also taught post doctoral programs in
acupuncture for the Parker College of Chiropractic. Dr. Bellows
holds a Masters Degree in Oriental Medicine from the Beijing
School of Acupuncture and also attended the Dallas Institute of
Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.
Acupuncture can be an effective alternative to treatments that
may require the use of invasive procedures. Controlling knee or
back pain with acupuncture rather than resorting to surgery, or
regulating the menstrual cycle with acupuncture and herbs rather
than taking prescription medications are good examples. Also, using
prescription medications to regulate your period is simply a method
of fooling your body. Acupuncturists actually focus on correcting
the cause of the irregular menses and work to bring you back to
better health.
In direct contrast to many Western approaches, where we are often
warned of “possible side effects”, the side effects of acupuncture
tend to be beneficial. Improving circulation to relieve knee pain
tends to have a positive effect on circulation throughout the body.
This, in turn, can improve energy, stamina, reduce stress, and even
emotional well being.
If you are interested in an appointment with Dr. Bellows on site
at Bella Fontana Spa, please call the Spa and we will schedule it
for you, or call Texoma Oriental Medicine at 903.583.8333.

Serious Nutrient Depletions!
940-665-8401
Ask pharmacist Mark Meece about
individualized nutritional consulting!
by Mark Meece, RPh

W hen a patient has a prescription filled, he is generally made

aware of one or more side effects or adverse reactions that
medication could cause. Many patients have educated themselves
to the extent that they know what lab tests should be performed to
monitor their drug therapy. An increasing number of patients are
aware of drug interactions and will ensure that their current
medications do not interact with any new drug they are prescribed.
However, relatively few are aware of nutrient depletions caused
by long-term use of many popular medications. The effects of these
depletions may have serious implications for the patient’s overall
health.
For decades now there have been studies reporting nutrient
depletions caused by drugs. However, this information has generally
been regarded as unimportant or simply ignored by the medical
establishment. Several attempts have been made by pharmacy
organizations and vitamin companies to produce a workable
program to make all patients aware of these
nutrient depletions, but most of the
programs have proven unworkable or, at
best, incomplete.
Many of our currently most popular drugs
(as many as half) have well-known nutrient depletions. Some of
the commonly prescribed categories with known depletions are oral
contraceptives, anticonvulsants, diabetic, cholesterol reducers,
stomach-acid reducers, antidepressants, blood pressure, and
antibiotics. The following are some brief, but specific, examples.
Oral contraceptives have been reported since the mid-1970s to
deplete folic acid, vitamins B6, B12, B2, and magnesium. The folic
acid depletion may be particularly important when these women
later attempt to become pregnant, due to the known link between
folic acid deficiency and neural tube defects. There is also a link

between anemia (common in women in this age group) and low
folic acid levels.
Acid-reducing medications used for GERD or peptic ulcers have
been shown to decrease the absorption of several nutrients due to
their acid-lowering effect. Those nutrients include folic acid,
calcium, vitamin D, and in particular vitamin B12. Vitamin B12
has effects throughout the body, including pronounced effects on
energy levels and nerve conduction.
Cholesterol-lowering drugs are some of the most commonly
prescribed medications today. Although many patients are made
aware of rare, but dangerous side effects, few are made aware of
the most important nutrient depletion. Drugs in the “statin” category
that lower cholesterol tend to deplete the levels of Coenzyme Q10,
which has important functions in the heart, immune system, and is
a strong antioxidant. The link to heart function may be of critical
importance as patients with high cholesterol are at increased risk
for cardiac events.
These are just a few examples of drug induced nutrient depletions.
There are good resources online and several books written on this
subject should you want to learn more.
Your pharmacist should be able to help you ensure that you are
supplementing the nutrients your current medications may deplete.
Many pharmacists now offer personal consultations for this sort of

Community Health Action Alerts for North Texans
Coal-Fueled Plant On Fannin-Grayson County Line Is One of Some
18 New Plants Planned for Texas With Inferior Pollution Controls
Set aside, for the moment, the global warming controversy (CO2), and focus on MERCURY
and PARTICULATE and NITROGEN OXIDES (toxic smog) and SULFUR DIOXIDE and the
already too-polluted Texas air. This is an attempt to grandfather new plants under older
emission standards. Wind patterns spread the pollution. Mercury is deadly. Get informed and get involved!

T XU, the largest power company in North Central Texas, is

asking the state to fast-track an approval of a coal-fueled
generator plant in Savoy, Texas, near the Fannin-Grayson County
line. With two gas-fueled boilers already on location, the addition
of a coal-fueled plant is unnecessary. Though more electricity could
be generated from gas through a process known as “Gasification”,
TXU is choosing to implement an inferior technology. Their choice
to build a coal-fueled plant brings with it many potential threats to
our communities.
The transportation of the coal is just one of the negative aspects
concerning this issue. The coal has to be transported to the plant
via the railroad. TXU is planning to get their supply of coal from
Wyoming using single purpose coal trains that will rail through
Grayson County to Savoy every single day of the year. These trains
are made up of 100-150 gondola cars filled to the brim with coal
and completely uncovered. Pulled by four diesel engines, these
trains can weigh as much as 24,000 tons and stretch as far as a mile
and a half. Imagine that rolling through your town every day.
Once the train arrives at the plant, the coal is dumped one carload
at a time, producing large amounts of dust and noise. Communities
all along the transportation route will be at risk for pollution. There’s
something to think about before the plant burns the first ton of
coal.
When the plant does start up, taking into account the way the
wind blows, cities as far as 40 miles away will be a target for large
amounts of toxic pollutants, harmful chemicals, and smog. This
pollution not only affects the air we breathe, but also poisons our
water and land, which poses a great threat to our health and well
being. None of this has to happen. It comes to us because of TXU’s
unfortunate decision to build a coal-fueled plant. What can we do
about it? We can call our Mayor’s office, County Judge, State
Senator, County Health Commissioner, and any other agency that
is responsible for the health and safety of our communities.

Fluoride in your Water & Toothpaste
Dr. Bard delves into the history of the flouride additive we know so well, and
references a new book on trace minerals and the genetic code by Charles Walters
of Acres USA fame.
F rom where did the Fluoride come that has been in our water
and toothpaste for over 60 years? First, there was an incident in
Belgium where 60 people died from a fluoride spill or dump site.
Our government knew of this as well as our corporations.
The Manhattan Project – “A” bomb dropped in Japan – created
fluoride from the process of obtaining Uranium from Uranium ore.
The Aluminum industry produced fluoride while making Aluminum
parts for airplanes, and the fertilizer industry produced Fluoride
from making explosives and fertilizer. The government and the
Aluminum and fertilizer industries formed a group to decide how
to get rid of this toxin.
Natural Texas Flouride
During WWII it was discovered that Deaf Smith County –
Hereford – Texas boys had very few cavities in their teeth. Deaf
Smith County had water with Fluoride in it from natural sources.
Deaf Smith also had large amounts of Calcium in the soil. At that
period of time, most food was not shipped very far, so people ate
local food that they grew or that they traded with neighbors.
It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that calcium protected
the teeth and bones and health in general (there was very little high
blood pressure at that time because there was calcium in the food
that doesn’t exit today in most of the US and other countries). The
local people also knew that if there was too much fluoride in the
water and food that the enamel on their teeth would become weaker
and get a motley appearance.
The government and corporations knew about Hereford, so they
sent scientists around the US to see how much Fluoride they could
put in the public drinking water without killing the population. When
that number was determined, they started selling Fluoride to cities
to “prevent” cavities. If doctors and dentists complained that the
toxic chemicals were harmful and didn’t prevent cavities, the
corporations set up ways to discredit the doctors. Many lost their
licenses to practice.
Vital Role of Trace Minerals
The above information is what I was able to read and document
until this past week. I have been reporting for several years that
trace minerals are the way to good health because they do not exist
in the food supply since the land was farmed out – destroyed years
ago.
There is a new book about Dr Richard Olree, geneticist, by Charles
Walters [Acres USA ~ eco-agriculture]. The book is Minerals for
the Genetic Code. This book examines trace minerals and how they
affect our genes and our health. If you don’t have zinc, then cadmium
(a toxic heavy metal) will replace it. If you don’t have iodine (needed
for thyroid health), then fluoride will replace iodine, and people
end up with thyroid disease and doctors cut, radiate, or chemicalize
the thyroid gland. This book exposes our failing health care system.
Our genes are damaged by lack of trace minerals in our foods,
which creates disease and instead of replacing trace minerals, our
drug corporations and doctors use surgery, radiation and toxic drugs
to prolong life instead of curing our bodies.

Mind Control?
US Army Colonel Lindegren (retired) told my friend Charles
Walters in the early 1930’s that “Hitler had his scientists hunt out
an odorless drug that could be unobtrusively administered to the
German people to make them more docile and open to suggestions.”
Accordingly, chemists at I.G. Farben came up with Sodium Fluoride.
Lindegren said “In the rear occipital of the left lobe of the brain,
there is a small area of tissue responsible for the individual’s power
to resist domination. Repeated doses of infinitesimal amounts of
Sodium Fluoride will in time gradually reduce the individual’s
power to resist domination by slowly poisoning and narcotizing
this area of the brain tissue. In large doses, Sodium Fluoride causes
paralysis and death. The drug allows a muscle to move one way,
but blocks it from a corresponding reaction or contraction. But
when an individual continually receives minute doses of it, the next
effect is marked weakening of the will.” This information was
partially revealed at the Nuremburg trials of Nazi criminals.
The anatomy of the fluoride element was well understood by the
Nazi concentration camp killers that used it to render docile the
political prisoners (Jews) in their camps. This knowledge was readily
available to our government, and the aluminum/phosphate
industries.
Dr Olree stated it best in his book: “Sodium Fluoride! It’s
basically a poison … added to the drinking water during World
War II in German concentration camps. They soaked up all their
Lithium and made all the prisoners more depressed and easy to
manage.” This is the reason the Jews could be put into the gas
chambers with out a fight.
SODIUM FLUORIDE is in all large city water systems and in
your toothpaste.
What I have reported is true. We have been duped by our
government and large corporations. They exploit us and even make
us pay for their toxic waste removal (cities have to pay for the
sodium fluoride that they inject in to the
water supply). In addition we also pay
for toxic waste removal when we buy
toothpaste.
Assume that I am not right (but I Unhealthy Soil
am) and that you are skeptical.
Even with the slight possibility that
I am correct, you need to filter

...the American family farm, our industrial diet, organic standards, and real food...
Industrial Organics
Steve Cooper of Dominion Farms in Denison recalls the day a man
called him and promised he could sell all they could possibly produce.
“Do whatever it takes just to get the label ‘organic’ on the chicken, and
I can sell it as fast as you can produce it.” Cut corners, do the mini-
mum, deceive the consumer, and maximize the profits.
This was a marketing opportunity for a small family operation, strug-
gling to make it as an organic producer of organic, pastured meats and
eggs. But the answer from Dominion Farms was “No.” They had learned
to raise beef, chicken, and pork the healthiest way and they would not
compromise on their standards.
They began this adventure after going to visit Joel Salatin’s famous
(at least to organic people) Polyface farm, home of pastured poultry
and salad-bar beef. Michael Pollan also went to visit Polyface, after
Joel staunchly refused to FedEx a pastured chicken or steak to Michael.
He didn’t believe it was sustainable (or organic) to FedEx meat all
around the country. Just because we can, doesn’t mean we should,
explained Joel. He was convinced that industrial organic was a contra-
diction in terms, recalls Pollan, who spent time on the farm and writes
about Salatin and his operation in Omnivore’s Dilemma.

since 2003. The top recipient of this money, Governor
Perry, received 9% of the total ($66,890), according to
a Lobby Watch report from Texans for Public Justice.
The report also stated that most of the campaign contributions from
coal-plant applicants came from TXU, which operates some of Texas'
largest dirty-coal plants. TXU PACs and employees poured $753,522
into state politics in recent years.
North Texas Under Siege
“With these coal plants, and the Trans-Texas Corridors, and our battle
with Brazos Electric over plans for high-voltage power lines, I feel
like our region and our way of life is under siege,” laments Kathryn
Baecht. “This is a beautiful place to live. We’re putting so much and
so many at risk.”
Baecht sees the energy-generation issue as a complex problem that
needs a complex solution, involving cleaner plants, better alternatives,
and energy conservation. “Texas wastes a tremendous amount of en-
ergy. We could all do more to conserve, but many people find it diffi-
cult to hear that message.”
Visit the listed web sites, especially the Google groups location for
CORE, which is a locally organized Fannin Country/Grayson Country
group, and get educated and get involved. This will affect ALL North
Texans. The Dallas mayor is active. Many of these plants are south-
east of us, in our DFW and Red River region wind pattern.
MERCURY alone is enough reason to be extremely disturbed over
these plans. It seems that “ever-bigger economy at any cost” is today’s
guideline. We need reason, common sense, education, citizen involve-
ment, and strong leadership with integrity and a wise perspective to
lead Texas into the future.

food (the many who lived on farms or had a few animals and a garden)
but no money. In your lifetime, he told Rocky, you will see people with
wheelbarrows full of money, looking for food. That may very well
come true ~ at least, looking for real food.
Rocky and Carol have recently obtained a certification for their grade-
A raw goat and miniature Jersey cow dairy. Another raw dairy south of
Fort Worth recently ceased operation, and so R&C is drawing custom-
ers from as far away as Waxahachie and all around the DFW metroplex.
What Can We Do?
Get educated and informed. Read Pollan’s book (and there are many
others on the subject). Arrange a farm tour with a local farmer. Buy
their products. Join or start a co-op. Reconnect with real food. Re-
think your food budget and your eating habits. Take it a step at a time.
Let your elected officials know that you care about the small farmer
and support legislation (or the removal thereof) that protects their land
and encourages community agriculture. For example, there are too
many unnecessary restrictions on the rights of small, local dairies to
sell raw milk products directly to their communities. The Real Milk
movement of the Weston A. Price Foundation is trying to change that.
There is a lot more to talk about, but not enough space. We’ll con-
tinue to do our best to report on these subjects.
