Thank god for doctors and for antibiotics. They save millions of lives every year, but there is a dark side to the use of antibiotics that is not quite so well known. For example, did you know that there is a commonly used antibiotic that can kill, like ecstasy, on the very first dose you take? 
The trouble with antibiotics is that they are just so </atom:summary><link>http://www.dblsundog.net/Blog/2007/01/are-antibiotics-killing-you.html</link><author>uplandlz@up.net (C. R.

ROME José Esquinas-Alcázar regards the corn laid
out in rows with the love and admiration that
sommeliers reserve for bottles in a fine wine cellar.
To the untrained eye, it is a collection of misshapen
ears: Long, short, blue, yellow, white, spotted,

Benjamin Franklin played a lot of roles, but primarily,
you'd have to call him a thinker. He knew how to think.
And that led him to act. In our current lingo, we could say
that he knew how to think outside the box. His approach
to solving problems wasn't restricted to the solutions that
were already on the table. He could come up with new
solutions. That's how he came</atom:summary><link>http://www.dblsundog.net/Blog/2005/07/challenge-of-leadership.html</link><author>uplandlz@up.net (C. R.

Whether you're concerned about cancer,
cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or simply losing
weight, you want to eat a healthy diet and focus
on foods that are high in vitamins, minerals, and
phytonutrients, and balanced in fats, carbs,
proteins. 

There is only one way to incorporate healthy foods
into our diet and that is to make the decision to
do it! </atom:summary><link>http://www.dblsundog.net/Blog/2005/06/know-thy-food-label.html</link><author>uplandlz@up.net (C. R.

I’m sure you’ll agree this is a shocking question, but I
want to call your attention to a serious health issue.

Sodium fluoride, which is found in virtually all toothpastes,
is a poison – a toxic substance. In fact, it’s more
poisonous than lead and only slightly less than arsenic.
It’s also the primary ingredient used in rat and cockroach

Dozens of toothpastes sold at supermarkets are at the
centre of a cancer alert today.

Anti-bacterial cleaning products, including dishwashing
liquid and handwash, are also affected.

the products, can react with water to </atom:summary><link>http://www.dblsundog.net/Blog/2005/05/toothpaste-cancer-alert.html</link><author>uplandlz@up.net (C. R.
