Acupuncture is definitely not woo-woo medicine, I use it for morning sickness for my pregnant ladies all the time with very high levels of success. The interesting thing is that you could almost call Ibuprofen woo-woo medicine when you see the real figures for it’s efficacy ! Where modern medicine excels is trauma and acute care but after that the case gets really blurry, really fast. Between my 17 years as a nurse, midwife and partner to a woman with an extra-ordinary knowledge of physiology I have come to realize that for chronic and sub-acute health issues medicine is not just totally lacking it is actually dangerous.
It took me a while to come around to my wife’s view of health but in the end I could not argue with her results – what we eat is everything, the state of our small and large intestine determines pretty much every single aspect our long term health. While I cannot say I have seen her cure autism I have seen a child turned from a screaming monsters to a placid sweet child able to learn and love living again. I have seen her normalise sky high blood pressue. I have seen what had been diagnosed as a severe case of pustulent psoriasis covering arms, legs torso and face transformed into healthy normal skin in four weeks.
Mind you I suspect many people would recoil at some of the things she makes us eat in our house, including clay, fermenting cabbage, tangy yoghurt that bubbles but I cannot recall when any of us (inc of four children) have had a cold or an upset stomach, or any illness for that matter. Anyway i am deviating, Belle Judith has signed on AZ now, have a chat to her.
Love, Nina.
