Ive heard of several cases where people got really sick from root canals. It is often better to have the tooth removed. Also, when it comes to money, a tooth replacement costs less than a root canal, which almost always leads to having a crown put on that tooth. (As I was told by a dentist.) My information could be wrong, but, I am going by what a health professional told me.
I also speak from experience. I had 2 teeth broke by falling into a steel pole about 8-9 years ago. The first thing they want to do is root canals and crowns. $$$$$$$$$. !!! I opted for removal and replacement.
OK..didnt mean to make this a dental discussion...lol..Just offering some info.

Sorry and silmultaneously glad to know about your sister-in-law. I will be sure not to take that path.

I was just diagnosed with a lung disorder that according to the medical community gives me an average of five years to live (if I choose to not seek treatment their way that is.)
One of the drugs that they use for this is also used for chemo. Let's kill my entire immune system and hope for a cure. If I had to make and educated guess I really think it just kills a fungus in the lungs and if by chance you survive the no immune system part maybe you can breathe better temporarily.

I really feel that God has called me to find natural alternative for this. It would be great if I had a doctor to support me but as of now I do not. I figure I rather do five years on my terms instead of theirs any day. Maybe even show back up to their office in ten years and say hey I am still around. How are you Doc.?

Weston Price a well known researcher and dentist proved these thing caused havoc on the body. He took out pieces of the root canal and placed them in rabbits and was able to duplicate diseases that were occuring in the human host.

I heard of a young girl that ended up in a coma after a root canel. A good doctor will tell you to remove them if you have serious heart complaints, arthritus or any major disease.

I will put in my own "two cents" on the western medicine vs. holistic healing...over the last year I have developed all the symtoms of MS (or at least thats the name they give it). This includes numb hands, blurry vision, and the most terrifying was I would also lose my ability to speak. I dont think you need to be a scientist to understand this was something neurological. It was horrible to have that experience. The blood work did not look good and the doctors wanted to order a spinal tap. I found Kevin T.'s book and started reading...I have been using Splenda for years (http://www.thetruthaboutsplenda.com) and I though it was safe. I started a whole body cleanse almost three weeks ago and the problems are GONE. I have went completely organic (even cosmetics) so its hard to say if it was the Splenda or not...but all the other changes going on in my body (too many to list) seems to make it irrefutable that there is something going on with our food supply.

And to think I almost consented to a spinal tap. My doctor (i fired him) told me I would definatly get worse if I did not get on meds to control my symptoms. So far, I am doing great.

Sorry Bobby, no Im not offended, but the last government entity I trust is the FDA. They approve all the drugs and food additives that are found to be harmful and deadly everyday. They are strongly influenced, (money, benefits) by the food and phamaceutical industry. As I have been learning about holistic medicine, one of the things I have learned (and this makes sense) is that each person is born with different genetic weaknesses, therefore, the chemicals and nutriant deficencies that our bodies encounter can have different effects on different individuals. Maybe Splenda wont hurt you...or maybe it will be in a different way. All the evidence I have read supports not using anything that is created in a lab and not natural in its genetic or chemical structure. It is just not compatable with our bodies.

hi Bobby,
Thought you might want to read this. I did use equal for a few years, then I went to splenda. Now I got rid of that splenda and have not drank a diet soda in about 2 months. I have lost weight as well.
I hope you dont mind but I felt this artical my uncle sent me was very interesting.
I do use stevia now and so does my husband it is $ but worth it.
please read the following it is very interesting

Sweetener Helps You Lose Weight
One of the major reasons people are overweight in America, compared to other countries, is the high use of super-refined sugars and artificial sweeteners in virtually every product you purchase. In America, food companies know that by putting certain ingredients in food, people will gain weight faster. The reason food companies want you to be fat is so that they can sell you more food. Food companies specifically put ingredients in food that increase your appetite, make you physically chemically-addicted to the food, and make you fatter, faster. The ingredients include high fructose corn syrup, super refined sugar, dextrose, fructose, sucrose, and all artificial sweeteners including the brands Splenda® or Sucralose®, and NutraSweet®, which is aspartame.

I recently was in a super-market doing some investigations. I looked at mustard. Mustard throughout the world is a condiment that is not supposed to contain any sugar at all. In countries all around the world, mustard has no sugar or any type of sweetener in it. However, in America, virtually every brand of mustard I looked at contained some form of sugar, mostly high fructose corn syrup. I did the same review of breads. Around the world bread is made from flour, usually from wheat or rye or another grain, water, yeast, and salt. Those are the only ingredients used in bread. However, in America, it is quite different. Virtually, all bread I found was loaded with some form of sugar, mostly high fructose corn syrup. McDonald's™ Corporation announced that they are now putting even more sugar in their bread than before. Bread is not supposed to have sugar in it. Mustard is not supposed to have sugar in it. American food manufacturers are doing this specifically to get you physically, chemically-addicted to the food by using these unnatural, man-made forms of sugar or sweeteners, and to make you fat. If you are interested in losing weight, you must consider avoiding high fructose corn syrup, as well as all artificial sweeteners. Never use Splenda® or NutraSweet®. Read the labels. If it says high fructose corn syrup, fructose, dextrose, sucrose, sucralose, sugar, aspartame, NutraSweet®, Splenda®, or molasses, avoid the product.

At home, you can use the fantastic, all-natural sweetener, stevia. Stevia is a great tasting herb, which has been used as a sweetener in Japan, for decades. It will not make you gain weight. It has many health benefits including regulating your blood sugar levels which helps you to not have so many food cravings, which in turn, helps you lose weight. Stevia comes in both powder and liquid form. It comes in easy-to-carry packets, which you can put in your purse and carry with you. Using stevia as a sweetener throughout the day helps eliminate food cravings, calms your appetite, and helps your energy levels stay consistent. I highly recommend the use of stevia.

Exactly! People kill people...to sum it all up. Guns,drugs,cars, etc are just the props used in the process. As people, we have the ability to do what we can to avoid these potentially hazadrous circumstances.

Yes, its unfortunate. Its unfortunate that most western health care providers beleive they are helping. Brainwashed is a good word for it...that is the biggist challenge when I talk to people about this. You are not just presenting an idea, like "A" is better than "B", but you are asking people to understand that there are government and capitalistic oganizations who do not care about what they are doing. We have to admit we are not protected, but just part of a profit margin. This is scary. We are raised our whole life to think anyone with authority will have our best interest at heart.
