Health & Wellness
When I was eleven years old, I was diagnosed with an acute kidney disease, which kept me bedridden for a couple of months. As an avid reader, this was a ‘reading holiday’ for me! But the impact on my health, especially in the aftermath of being forced to take antibiotics every day for almost two years was devastating. The antibiotics affected my ‘healthy’ gut bacteria and my immune system in such a way, that I developed many cavities as a teenager, while my teeth had been in absolute perfect shape in my pre-teen years! I always wondered what had caused my dental health to suddenly take a nose-dive in my teens and only learnt in recent years that the bacteria in the mouth are linked to the bacteria in the gut and that the antibiotics had practically killed all my healthy mouth and gut bacteria, while the doctors were trying to save my life in treating the kidney disease. After completing the long course of antibiotics, unhealthy gut and mouth bacteria started to regrow faster than the healthy gut and mouth bacteria, and this weakened my natural defences in my mouth, affecting my dental health: I had one tooth abscess after the next and each time the dentist completed a root canal treatment and added… you guessed it!… an amalgam filling! At the time this was the only solution known to ‘standard’ dentists in my country, South Africa, so I didn’t really have any choice in the matter. I took control of my health in my mid-twenties, after reading a book that changed the way I thought about health, titled “Fit For Life” – still a classic!
This started my personal health & wellness management journey that still continues now that I am in my 60s – and I am convinced that this is the reason why I have not had to have a single surgery since my tonsils were removed (without my consent!) at the age of five!
I have identified a number of key health and wellness tools and nutritional supplements, which I want to share with you. So, if you’re interested, check back on this page soon…
