TRY 100PLUS and Water - Not Pain Killer

dBelow is an interesting article I received, read on :

DON'T TAKE PAIN KILLER especially if you have gastric problems
FYI... One real story ....

My husband was working in a hospital as an IT engineer, as the hospital is planning to set up a database of its patient. And he knows some of the doctors quite well.

The doctors used to tell him that whenever they have a headache, they are not willing to take pain killer (PARACETMOL) . In fact,they will turn to Chinese Herbal Medicine or find other alternatives.

This is because Pain Killer is toxic to the body, and it harms the liver. According to the doctor, it will reside in the body for at least 5 years. And according to the doctor, there used to be an incident where an air stewardess consumes a lot of pain killer during her menstrual as she needs to stand all the time. She's now in her early 30's, and she needs to wash her kidney (DIALYSIS) every month. As said by the doctor that whenever we have a headache, that's because it is due to the electron/Ion imbalance in the brain. As an alternative solution to cope with this matter, they
suggested that we buy 1 or 2 cans of isotonic drink ( eg.100PLUS ), and mix it with drinking water according to a ratio of 1:1 or 1:2 (simply, it means one cup 100plus, one cup water.or 2 cups water).

Me and my husband have tried this on several occasions, and it seems to work well.

Another method will be to submerge your feet in a basin of warm water so that it bring the blood pressure down from your throbbing head. As it is a pain killer, the more you take, the lesser would be your threshold for pain (your endurance level for pain). We all will fall ill as we aged, for woman, we would need to go through childbirth. Imagine that we had spent our entire life popping quite a substantial amount of Pain Killer when you need to have a surgery or operation, you will need a much more amount of general anesthetic to numb your surgical pain than the average person who seldom or rarely takes Pain Killer. If you have a very high intake of Pain Killer throughout your life (Migraine, Menstrual cramps) it is very likely that normal general anesthetic will have no effects on you as your body is pumped full with it and your body is so used to pain killer that you would need a much stronger pain killer, Morphine? Value your life, THINK b4 you easily pop that familiar pill into your mouth again. Please send this to people you care about.

It is interesting to see the kind of Personal Skills the Group came out with. Some quoted swim, writing, cooking, jokes, awareness, etc. You will be surprise there are so many skills that all of us are still lacking.
