keeping baby safe
Why Not?
![]() When you have the option of keeping baby safe Why Not? Somewhere in our history the smell of a baby became associated with commercial products. The most famous of these is Johnson & Johnson’s Baby Powder which is currently losing legal battles for causing ovarian cancer, yet, the imprint of that smell remains associated with baby.

![]() This was a random internet find that happens to work. It is called Horse Chestnut Cream and this brand is Planetary. The cost was about $20 US. Although it has many uses that include supporting hemorrhoids, arthritis, sprains, eczema and joint pain, it is also know for healing veins. Horse Chestnut Cream is used in Europe as an effective and sanctioned remedy for veins with mild to moderate blood flow disorders and varicose veins. It is said to support vessel wall functioning and offers relief for pain and swelling. ![]() There was a recent study reported that is attempting to link PTSD in war situations to genetics. Of course anything is possible, but I had to think this fringes on the ridiculous. War is a horrifying experience on so many levels that genetics seems to be the last of the possibilities. A completely overlooked area of possibility is the influence of lead from weapon use. Lead is known to cause reactions that are very similar to PTSD with or without the experience of war. In fact, a known side effect of lead contamination is rage which can manifest in many ways that resemble PTSD. If you consider that the military still uses mercury in dentistry, still feeds soldiers food contaminated with GMO poisons and pesticides and gives little support in the area of mental health, it seems reasonable that the combination of these elements would offer symptoms that strongly mimic what is known as PTSD. An interesting and practical study would be to test soldiers with PTSD for mercury and lead levels. It seems a very basic first step. ![]() PRODUCTS CLAIMING TO HAVE ESSENTIAL OILS ARE NOT NECESSARILY WHAT YOU EXPECT.
