Thanksgiving
I decided to spend Thanksgiving working today. This would give me an opportunity to relax and simply enjoy myself. I don't have the desire to spend this day with others because over the years it has been the same tradition of eating like pigs and when you don't participate then you have to hear all the crap they give you. People simply do not respect you when you want to do something beneficial for your mind and body. I just wanted to enjoy myself, watch my karate movies, study yoga, and practice yoga today. I was invited to join a yoga channel today. It was great and I was very thankful for the invite. I thought I would share that information with whomever is interested. Peace of mind means a peaceful body.

Premature babies into adulthood
This was the reply I sent to Science Daily on the previous article on GERD.
As a person with GERD, I certainly hope scientist can get it right. As we are getting sick even when we do not eat acidic foods. When this occurred, I knew there was something else going on. Perhaps, those of us with GERD are having allergic reactions to some foods. I certainly wish they would investigate how many people were born premature and this develops in adulthood as a result of being born premature. I know today, many babies are born with this condition as a result of prematurity. Perhaps, those of us who are sick with Gerd were premature as I was. My body acts different than the rest of my entire family when I eat food. In the end, my mother and I both believe a lot of my problems have stemmed from being born premature which does cause a person to have a lower immunity. I will stay updated as they discover more but I certainly believe prematurity and undeveloped internal organs are the cause of GERD and other dietary problems. No one monitors prematures as they develop into adults.

Acidic Burn does not cause GERD
I came across one of the most interesting articles this morning on the condition GERD. It seems scientist have performed tests on rats and their results revealed acidic burn is not the cause of GERD in rats. They gave rats extremely high doses of Acid burn and weeks later the rats started to exhibit acidic burn. Researchers now are saying GERD may be caused by the Esophageal cells to release chemicals called cytokines which in turn attract inflammatory cells to Esophagus and those inflammatory cells cause the damage called GERD.

BODIES EXHIBTION WEST END DALLAS

Here is one of the write ups from the Dallas Observer. In this review of the exhibition you can see where the first thing mentioned is the Holiday Thanksgiving and how much we love to eat during this time. They are warning people about their eating habits and asking them to go down to the West End before having their meal to take a look at the human body.
Getting Under Your SkinBy Kaitlin Ingram
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and, man, am I ready this year. I've been dreaming about mashed potatoes and cornbread dressing for more than a month now. But despite being one of my favorite holidays, Thanksgiving is also dangerous--and not just relatives-getting-drunk-and-blurting-out-family-secrets dangerous. I'm talking about dangerous for your health, people. We all know obesity is an epidemic in America, and Thanksgiving is all about stuffing faces. But fret not, fellow food-lovers, because I've found a surefire way to keep you from going back for seconds (or thirds): Sometime before the big meal, go to West End Marketplace, 603 Munger Ave., and look at a bunch of real, dead human bodies. If that doesn't cure your appetite (as well as your burning curiosity about human anatomy), I don't know what will. The popular international show Bodies: The Exhibition will be on display through April 2010 and features real, polymer-preserved bodies posed in various positions, showing all of us non-doctors what really goes on underneath our skin. Weekday tickets are $22, weekend tickets are $24, and discounts are available for kids, seniors, groups and members of the military. For more information about the exhibition, visit bodiestheexhibition.com. To purchase tickets, go to bodiestickets.com.
It's been a while
It seems I've been a little out off focus and to regain focus they are hitting us with everything possible to make people aware of how they need to lose weight. A persoon I know was at a job and they were informed that if you had a BMI of 40 you need not show up or if you had HIGH BP, cholesterol, or Diabetes controlled or uncontrolled you would be sent home. Wow!.. The things I have spoken of have come to the surface. I even saw where Star Jones was hosting a program called:Obesity in Black America. Just today, the West end is opening the Bodies Exhibition. The prices are quiet expensive but I've got to go and find out what the exhibit is all about. I believe it will be quiet fasinating to see the human body on exhibit. This is a rare opportunity for my children. I've got to make my young black girls understand how important health will be in their generation. They don't have the luxury of letting themselves go and eating everything in sight. Otherwise, they will not be allowed to work and if you can't work you can't eat. Fitness and Health will everything in this next generation. I vision a time where they will go back to the times of the Greek Empire. Most people do not realize this but the Greek empire was fasinated with fitness and health to the extent of having a government run program where everyone was required to exercise at noon time. All jobs ceased and people would work out from 30 mins to an hour. This was required of everyone. What a wonderful stress free society they would have been. This is where we are headed, this is our future and the future of our children. The time is now. The time to rethink is now. The time to change is now. Those who do not are dead!
