Easy-to-Make Holiday Baskets
This Post Will offer:
1. Holiday Baskets to Make....
2. Give the Gift of Health!
3. Onion Cheese Bread Recipe
1. Nothing erases the Holiday doldrums better than cheering someone up with a Holiday Gift Basket. This collection of baked goods, fruit, nuts, a plant nestled in red and green decorative 'grass' and possibly some Gifts of Health tucked in is easy and affordable.
Decide on a limit of spending, Purchase a Gift Certificate, or use the materials you have around the house. This is also the time to give gifts to others that they may appreciate, but do nothing but collect dust and take up room in your shelves and drawers.
You'll need: a basket from the Dollar Store, or one you have saved for this very season. My picture today is one with little red Christmas balls on a woven basket from a local Dollar store that is too cute to keep to myself. I'll fill it with some cookies, an orange or two, a beautiful new necklace I will never wear, still in the box, a gingerbread cookie cutter (my friend has grandkids and no gingerbread boy cookie cutter) and a few bath items that I love, from Shaklee:
The Multi-purpose Herbal Cream smells like WintoGreen Lifesavers, and heals chapped hands, is great for foot massages, takes away itches almost immediately, and is called Face to Fanny cream, for its wide variety of uses. (I'll send the list upon request. It's good to place in the bottom of the basket.)
The friend I'm thinking of loves hot baths, and so I also am including a Shaklee white scrubby net and my favorite body soap-Meadowblend Bar. It's actually not soap, and instead of the alkaline soaps that compromise our skins' natural acid mantle, this one is easy and gentle, and leaves no soap scum rings behind.(A cleansing bar, enriched with pH-balanced formula is gentle on your skin, and contains oatmeal, vitamin E, and wheat germ oil to make you feel and look clean, healthy and soft.)
http://leangreencafe.myshaklee.com/us/en/category.php?main_cat=Beauty&sub_cat=DailyCare
Another basket idea is for particular health problems, like the Arthritis Basket, with Shaklee's Alfalfa, Osteomatrix (calcium), Joint Health Complex if it's a knee problem with a loss of cartilage, and the Joint and Muscle Pain Cream. This Cream works really well. After a warm bath, massage it in and slip under the covers for a comforting night's sleep. A neighbor who ran a 5K run, discovered his body was aching all over. I had him do an experiment. We rubbed Joint and Muscle Pain Cream on one of his calves, and by the time he walked home, he noticed that leg no longer hurt. Another friend rubbed it on a damaged knee, and it stopped the pain. He then could feel pain in other joints that the knee had taken focus from. It works!
A loaf of bread, Applesauce Oatmeal Walnut muffins with Cranberries, Bread Sticks or Pretzels with coarse kosher salt, or Onion Cheese Bread, with a pint or quart of soup is also a nice basket. Have fun with the bows and ribbons, garlands, and Christmas labels made from old Christmas cards.
2. GIVE THE GIFT OF HEALTH! ...TO YOURSELF OR YOUR LOVED ONES.

3. Onion Cheese Bread Recipe
I've really loved this recipe with a good soup, or with salad, or a casserole. I made my own biscuit mix in the past. There are many recipes for it on the internet.
**Cook 1/2 c. chopped Onion in 1T. shortening or olive oil till clear
Blend 1 1/2 c. Biscuit Mix, 1/2 c. milk, 1 beaten egg, cooked onion, & 1/2 c. grated cheddar cheese.
Spread in a greased pie plate. Top with 1/2 c. grated cheese, 1T. poppy or sesame seed, and 2Tbsp. melted butter over all.
Bake at 375 for 20-25 min.
Enjoy...

A Basic Parasite Cleanse for Pets..
This is the Basic Parasite Cleanse for Pets from Dr. Clark, courtesy of http://www.onelifeusa.com/health_news/parasite_cleanse
Pets are part of your family and should be kept healthy and parasite-free. Dr. Clark felt it was important to keep them on the Maintenance Program continuously.
Ingredients:
1. Parsley Water: This has to be made by you. Cook a bunch of fresh parsley (approx. 1-2 inches thick at the stems) in a quart of water for 3 minutes. Make sure the parsley is completely submerged under the water. Drain and throw away the parsley. After cooling, you may freeze most of it in small cup containers or plastic freezer bags.
Put 1 teaspoon of parsley water on the pet's food. The parsley water is important for their kidneys. Continue with this dosage of parsley water for one week before beginning with the black walnut.
All the dosages are based on a 10 lb. dog or cat. Double them for a 20 lb. animal, and so forth.
2. Black Walnut Tincture. Put 1 drop of Black Walnut Tincture on the pet's food.
For cats, do this ONLY twice a week. For dogs, do this daily. For a 30 lb. dog, put 3 drops, but work up to it, increasing 1 drop per day.
3. Wormwood Capsules. Begin with the wormwood capsules 1 week afgter starting the Black Walnut. Open a capsule and put just a pinch of their food. Do this for a week before adding the clove capsules.
4. Clove Capsules. Open a capsule and put just a pinch on their food.
An example: A 20 lb. cat would be taking:
2 teaspoons of parsley water
2 drops of Black walnut tincture (twice a week for cats.)
1 pinch of Wormwood
1 pinch of Cloves. (After a week of Wormwood, you start this.)
An example: A 60 lb. dog would be taking:
6 teaspoons of parsley water
6 drops of Black Walnut tincture daily
1 pinch of Wormwood
1 pinch of Cloves
To Keep You Healthy, try the Basics:

For Healthy Kids: http://leangreencafe.myshaklee.com/us/en/category.php?main_cat=Nutrition&sub_cat=ChildrensHealth
Immune Boosting: (I read a post of someone with Stage 3 Pancreatic Cancer, who took the Basics and then 6 Nutriferon every night, until all signs of cancer were gone at about 4 1/2 months.
http://leangreencafe.myshaklee.com/us/en/category.php?main_cat=Nutrition&sub_cat=ImmuneSupport
"I’d like to share with you what I’ve learned and hopefully you’ll have an openness to hear it. Jim Burke was a cancer specialist and his recommendation of 8 oz. of Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein and 9 NutriFeron comes through Marty and Lynn Fredricks whose friend went from Stage 3 pancreatic cancer in 4 1/2 months later being told there was NO SIGN OF IT! Elena tells me the magic is taking 6 NutriFeron at night. This, of course, is along with your other supplements, no sugar, enough sleep, good exercise to a sweat, detoxifying, getting good hydration with good water, destressing, and eating raw fruits and vegetables as a foundation of your nutrition. Dr. Bevacqua highly recommended juicing from a previous blog I left. While in Mexico, Suzanne and I ate so regularly and healthy and I took my protein and had my additional supplements to the Vitalizer like clockwork!!"

Doctors Telling Citizens What they Have to Do/Medical Paternalism for Profit
This morning I read where a bill is being presented to increase the pap and mammogram screening coverage for women in the proposed Health Insurance bill. The brazen woman who is proposing the bill says that if the doctor advises either, then the woman must have it done. Since when do adults allow ignorant government figures to treat us like children, so the doctors and pharmaceuticals can ensure their profits? This is like the vaccine program, which was laced with the term Mandatory, as if parents can't decide for their children or themselves, and the Government, (with corporate ties) takes over the place of Parent. Paternalism for Profit. What kind of stupidity and corruption has this government come to? How long will the suffering go on, before an absolute revolution takes place?
This reminds me of the 'Drug War', where the CIA plants crack cocaine in ghetto neighborhoods, and suddenly we have a huge BUSINESS of CORRECTIONS. The DEA has so many corrupt ties, and profits are like Christmas for a few, that the tax-paying citizen is destined to be the low man on the totem pole. No drug treatment or legitimate drug treatment offered, but the citizens are NAIVE enough to support $25,000 per year and up, per our sons and daughters behind bars. With no legitimate help offered the small percentage of sexual abuse victims with convicted perpetrators, our resulting drug and alcohol addicts can fuel the prison economy. Who is making money? What is the expense?
This reminds me of AIDS, where the HIV virus is created, (now bear with me and do your own research and thought) implanted in Africa and New York in the vaccines, and then the Pharmaceuticals become giant powers, dripping with grants for research, etc., and eventually can compromise economic systems by infiltrating rescue of African children, etc. Managing CANCER, AIDS, DIABETES, etc. after creating it with toxins and drugs and adulterated nutrient-deprived crops is quite the business.
Where are the ADULTS in this country, with logical, rational abilities for thought? Where are the scientists with a curiosity in patterns and theories?
First we are shocked (giving live syphilis to inmates for lab rats), enraged, but not outraged, and eventually with the wave of corruption, we have become apathetic and easy targets for a variety of experiments and money-making projects, from Aspartame to Birth Control Hormones, Coumadin to Blood Pressure Meds to Psych Drugs, while we march with pink ribbons.
What if Alzheimers, cervical cancer, etc. were nothing but a money-making agenda with voiceless victims? Worse yet, thankful victims for the failed synthetic 'wonder drugs' to keep us out of the rest home for a few months, but result in early death. Kind of reminds me of the movie, Soylent Green. What if Macrobid, the drug given to women to 'avoid' urinary tract infections was creating the cervical cancer, tipping the DNA to become erratic, creating squamous and/or adenocarcinoma or the chemicals laced in cigarettes which are found in the cervical tissues were merely symbiotic hands with Tobacco/Big Pharma companies and the silent Medical field, and all along the HPV vaccines which can kill or harm more women, Pap smears, cervical procedures, etc. were merely the bread and butter for 'helpful' medical personnel and their Pharmaceutical and Lab and Diagnostic -doctor-invested Machines? Do we have a right to know the 'goals' of a hospital? Like, how many heart transplants they are shooting for in the year? Do we have a right to know, or would it be good sense to know, who has financial interests in the Diagnostic Machines?
This Holiday season, my wish is not small. I am wanting balance to return to this planet. I want to see media policy enforced, with ALL men, women and children of BOTH sides listed as killed or maimed. I want pictures of the reality of war shared, so we can be emotionally intelligent, and begin to shape world policy. I want mothers of integrity to take over in Government positions. Communication is a pivotal point of power. I want the owners and interests of ALL media shared with the public. I want Education to become the unpolluted basis to galvanize the young to help the old mend what is broken. No law school to reinforce the incestual Bar Membership of judge and lawyer, but to dig our country out of the fraudulent label of Justice. I know this is a lot, but we are many, and our spirit invincible despite the numbing and dumbing. I want the 'lights' to go on for the rest of the year.
Note: I will be posting photos of the aging/dying process of a young woman who was tricked into taking Psych Meds, and manipulated by fear in that 'getting off the drug would make her go crazy', which is a Party Line of many 'medical personnel' and 'counselors'. I believe in your right to be informed.

Do Fabric Softeners Make You Sick?
Exposure can result from the outgassing of vented dryers or from treated
fabrics (e.g., clothes, sheets, towels), which are in close proximity to you.
Questions to ponder:
Have you been enjoying a walk in the neighborhood and found you have
suddenly fallen without realizing why?
Do you get a numb feeling in the side of your face -- and the doctors can't
find the reason?
Do you get a sudden onset of dizziness or a headache?
Fabric softeners, like other fragrant products, contain petrochemicals, used
in untested combination. These chemicals can adversely affect the central
nervous system (CNS) -- your brain and spine.
CNS exposure symptoms include: aphasia, blurred vision, disorientation,
dizziness, headaches, hunger, memory loss, numbness in face, pain in neck and
spine. CNS disorders include: Alzheimer's Disease, Attention Deficit
Disorder, Dementia, Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, Multiple Sclerosis,
Parkinson's Disease, Seizures, Strokes, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).

Natural Solutions for Health vs. Flu Shots and Meds
Here is a fellow who teaches Medical Students, Dr. Stephen Chaney, and what he has to say about staying healthy. My best. Pamela
Hi Pamela,
Many of you have been saying to me:
"All I hear about in the news is shots and drugs. Is there a holistic approach for strengthening my immune system?"
My answer is yes! Here are my suggestions:
1) Start by eating a balanced diet composed of whole, unprocessed foods without a lot of fat and simple sugars. A great place to start designing a balanced diet that is perfect for your age, gender and activity level is www.mypyramid.gov.
2) Get plenty of sleep. The experts recommend 8 hours of sleep a night, but a majority of Americans get far less than that.
3) Exercise on a regular basis. Both too little and too much exercise can weaken the immune system (You might have guessed that the problem for most of us is the "too little", not the "too much"). The experts recommend at least 30 minutes every day.
4) Maintain ideal body weight. Those excess pounds really zap our immune system.
5) Minimize your reliance on medications. Many common medications weaken the immune system (Just listen to the disclaimers in the TV commercials for examples).
But you must work with your physician on this. Once your physician knows that you are willing to do take personal responsibility for your diet and lifestyle, they will generally be willing to minimize the number of medications that they prescribe.
6) Focus on the positive. Studies show that optimists are healthier and life longer than pessimists. And the good news is that anyone can cultivate an attitude of optimism. For most of us it is a lifestyle choice - not something that we were born with.
7) Add a supplement program to assure that your immune system is functioning optimally. In the ideal world supplements wouldn't be necessary, but there are very few "saints" who do a great job in all 6 of the areas that I mentioned.
A well designed supplement program fills in the "gaps". We want to make sure that we are getting adequate:
- B vitamins and protein because our immune cells need to divide very rapidly when we have immune challenges.
- Antioxidants because our immune cells create lots of free radicals.
- Trace minerals, especially iron and zinc, because they are required by important enzymes of the immune system.
- Vitamin D because it is vitally important for a strong immune system and most of us are not getting enough.
- Probiotics (healthy bacteria) because "bad" bacteria and yeast in our intestines can weaken the immune system.
- Omega-3 fatty acids to modulate the immune system once it has taken care of the invading bacteria or viruses.
We don't need megadoses. We just need enough.
One final thought: A holistic approach to strengthening our immune system is not an "either - or" proposition.
The flu short is 66% effective in preventing the flu for people with a strong immune system and only 33% effective in preventing the flu for people with a weak immune system.
To your health!

Basics of Supplementation are:
Natural vs. Synthetic, 50+ yrs. old Company that has almost 100 published scientific studies on their products, spends over $250 million on quality testing, has a well-known scientific board and scientists on board and cutting edge products without the 'bad boy products' that are unproven fads. I recommend Shaklee nutrition products:
1. Vita Lea-with or without iron, Vita Lea Gold for those over 50.
2. Omega Guard fish oil-distilled to remove contaminants. Double the DHA and EPA of other brands.
3. Optiflora-Probiotic in a triple-encased pearl needing no refrigeration. Over 500 million live lactobacillus and bifidus beneficial bacteria for your gut flora balance. An immunity MUST!
4. Soy Protein-cold water washed, Non-GMO, anti-thyroid substance removed, 50% calcium added to neutralize soy's acidic nature. Clean, consistent plant protein without the saturated fat of dairy and meat, and without the hormones and antibiotics...

Bone Spurs. Natural Solutions
Bone Spurs are painful, and are caused by a lack of calcium in the body, and Metabolic Acidosis from diet and stress, etc. The body starts to borrow from the calcium bank of bones and teeth. The protrusions from bone can press on nerves, etc., causing extreme discomfort and pain, like sciatica, etc. Here is a short story of one natural solution.
For other personal accounts of bone spurs, degenerative discs and arthritis, feel free to email me. You will probably find yourself in the collected stories, and know that there are solutions that don't include cortisone shots, etc. Cortisone and steroids cause cartilage disintegration, and other health problems, including unnecessary hip replacements down the road. Instead of treating the symptom, let's look at the cause and balance the blood chemistry.
My mother-in-law has (had) bone spurs on her spine along with
arthritis, diabetes, and degenerative disks. She was in extreme pain and went to many specialists. She received cortisone shots which helped temporarily, but the pain would always return. She was using a walker and was headed for a wheelchair. When the doctors told her that there was nothing else they could do for her, she FINALLY took my advice of 9 cal mag a day (3 -3 times a day) and with in a couple of weeks her pain was completely
gone.
Thanks to the cal mag, she has increased her bone density. I know this because, on several occasions, she has lost her balance and fallen in the kitchen on the ceramic floor. She never had any breaks or any bruises. She is 76.
Hope this helps

Click the title and links above to purchase Osteomatrix, which is Shaklee's calcium. They have a chewable CalMag also, without the Vitamin K, for those on Coumadin blood thinner.
I suggest the Basics: Vita Lea multivitamin/mineral, Soy Protein, Optiflora (probiotic to bring colon health and build the immune system) Osteomatrix or CalMag, and Vitamin C for help to absorb the Calcium and fight colds and flu. Alfalfa is also VERY HELPFUL in building bone and reducing arthritis pain, etc.. Alfalfa has microminerals to build healthy bones.

For other personal accounts of bone spurs, degenerative discs and arthritis, feel free to email me. You will probably find yourself in the collected stories, and know that there are solutions that don't include cortisone shots, etc. Cortisone and steroids cause cartilage disintegration, and other health problems, including unnecessary hip replacements down the road. Instead of treating the symptom, let's look at the cause and balance the blood chemistry.
