GENERAL HEALTH NEWSLETTER: MARCH 2008
Items that made the news this month include the shocking release of the dangerous, vaccine - Gardasil - for young girls, which is the most expensive vaccine ever produced, completely unnecessary and has left several young girls dead or disabled. See my subscriber newsletter for an in-depth article on this vaccine. Prepare to be utterly outraged!

Other news this month shows fructose is a leading cause of gout; statin drugs may raise cancer risk and we now have a case of “dirty water” in the country! Best reason I’ve ever heard of to buy a distiller quickly before there are none left – there’s been a rush on them as a result of some very serious water problems in our country, and I doubt things will improve. If you wish to get one, please contact me for the best model.

My specialist health store – Creeds – is one year old this month! We’re excited to have some dynamic new staff members, and many new changes lined up. On the 14th please pop in and enjoy celebrating with us!

NEW Ester C launched!
I’m thrilled to say my new MCC Registered Ester C is now available! Retailing for R189 for 90 x 1000mg – it’s a real bargain. You can get this from Creeds in Steenberg Village, or our Nutrition Centre in Constantia.

How to cure a headache – naturally!
When you feel it coming on, drink a medium sized glass of water every 5-10 minutes for 1 hour or until the headache is gone. If you are on your own, you could simply apply mustard (just the sort you mix with water) to the space just under your nose and apply an ice pack to your head. This takes 3-10 minutes to resolve a headache. No pills required! If you are at work and the water drinking bit is not all that practical, take 1-3 milk thistle capsules and follow the water drinking routine as best you can. If you can, do all three!

Fitness For Free:
Some people buy expensive athletic footwear and join pricey exercise clubs – it may not be necessary after all if you know how to get all the benefits of exercise on a shoestring!
1. Adopt a dog. Even if you don't like to exercise, dogs do. Here's an excuse to walk, jog, or run: blame the dog. A dog HAS to go out several times daily; they’re good company and they don't talk.
2. Drive a bakkie instead of a car. All your friends will want you to help them move. Guaranteed weight-lifting opportunities await you!
3. Always choose a house on top of a hill. Or, choose a top floor apartment. It is quieter anyway, and you have daily exercise on the stairs (don’t even think of using the lift).
4. Start a garden. Turn over the soil by hand (using a shovel) and you will get real exercise. Then the planting, weeding, watering and picking activities will also provide you with exercise.

Health Café
It’s all about honey this month – this is a delicious salad dressing I often make – hope you enjoy it. I am using here the new luxury vinegar that puts Balsamic in the shade!

Sally-Ann’s Organic Raw Honey French Dressing
2/3 cup Creeds Extra Virgin Olive Oil
¼ cup Sauvignon Blanc Vinegar (my new taste passion from Creeds)
¼ cup Creeds Organic Raw Honey
1/8 teaspoon Organic Ground Black Pepper
1/8 teaspoon Dry Mustard
¼ teaspoon Himalayan pink salt (also a new passion due to the gorgeous taste!)Mix this all together and splash over a crunchy salad with every wonderful thing in it you can find!

Make It Yourself: Hair Shine This recipe is for those who wish to use shampoo in addition to honey but shampoo is not necessary. Honey cleans in addition to aiding the health of the hair and scalp.
4 cups of Water, 1 teaspoon Creeds Organic Raw Honey and ¼ teaspoon lemon juice
Mix water, honey, and lemon juice.
• After shampooing, pour mixture through hair.
• Do not rinse out, but dry as normal

Fun Therapy
These are actual subtitles used in films made in Hong Kong:
1. I got knife scars more than the number of your leg's hair!
2. Beware! Your bones are going to be disconnected.
3. The bullets inside are very hot. Why do I feel so cold?
4. How can you use my intestines as a gift?

Food Allergy Testing
We’re so lucky to have some state-of-the-art food intolerance/allergy IgG testing in the country now – if you suspect you may be intolerant to certain foods which are causing you to gain weight, feel tired, or compromise your health, please contact me on sally@sallyanncreed.co.za so I can point you in the right direction. I’ve seen amazing results with these tests!
