Doctors aren’t always right. They don’t have all the answers. They misdiagnosis. I believe that “sometimes” alternative medicine, such as acupuncture, helps—and even solves the problem. BUT, this kind of treatment is also not always right.

Monday Mournings: And #1 Killer of Kids Goes to…

6/6/2016

What’s the #1 killer of kids globally? Aids? Not even close. Malaria? Keep looking. TB? Nope.
 
The # killer of kids: diarrhea. That kills more kids per year than Aids, Malaria and TB…combined! Over 1.5 million kids die each year--which is about 20% of all kids deaths each year.
 
When we think of kids dying of diarrhea, you may be thinking, “I didn’t know that many kids went to Taco Bell.” But I’m not talking the little bouts of the runs that comes from eating a genetically modified taco that has the flavor of Hot Cheetos. I’m talking about the kind of diarrhea that comes from parasites, worms, and fecal matter.
 
Why are the stats so alarmingly high? Water and soap. Many countries simply do not have clean water and soap. What’s worse is the climate is changing, and the conditions will almost definitely get worst. And if that wasn’t enough, population in countries with poor water conditions is also increasing.
 
If you want to help, you can start by visiting one of these websites:
