I think that I'm probably a little bit of a frustrated philosopher. Perhaps not in the truest sense, since philosophers should be somewhat detached or coolheaded about their thinking. I tend to come more from an emotional point of view, and so I become more passionate about what I see happening today -- especially when it concerns the human condition.
As we detach ourselves from Nature and look to our own intellect for answers to health and where disease comes from, we can only see part of the picture. It's like the three blind men touching the elephant in three different locations and trying to describe what the elephant looks like. We are those blind men. And, yes, we have touched the elephant, but what we have touched is only a minute part of reality.
We thought the advent of sulfa drugs and anti-biotics would eventually wipe out man's concern with bacterial infections. However, the indiscriminate and improper use of these drugs have been instrumental in producing new super-strains of pathogens that no longer respond to their effects. Do you know what the treatment for cancer was 50 years ago? It shouldn't surprise you when I tell you that it was radiation therapy and chemo-therapy. Now, I know that we have more advanced x-ray equipment and techniques that can focus better on the cancerous tissue. And I know that the cancer drugs are more powerful. However; here we are 50 years later, and cancer is still killing one-third of us. Tell me, does man's science, or God's creation, have the answers?
Actually, there's a place for both. And it's only because we no longer listen to Nature, or our bodies. I've now lived long enough to realize that all disease comes from living an imbalanced life. Again, I know that there are over 70,000 chemicals in our environment which have been approved for use by the FDA. And, roughly, 25 percent of these are known carcinogens. But isn't this an imbalance? Messages are constantly being sent to us concerning the body's condition, and we constantly ignore them. When we start to come down with a cold or flu, do we stay home? Do we rest and eat the proper nutrients to stimulate our own immune system? Or do we take antihistamines and analgesics or -- worse yet -- anti-biotics that do nothing for a viral infection, and then force ourselves to go back to work. How long can we continue to do this without serious consequence?
Putting a piece of tape over the oil light on the dash of your car, and ignoring the warning, will not make your car run better. And by putting a piece of taper over your symptoms year-after-year, without considering the cause, will eventually lead to serious disease. Once a physical crisis has occurred, medical science may be helpful; but once the crisis is over, please find and address the cause of your condition. To find the source of disease, you need to take time and listen. Listen to all part of your being: the physical, as well as the emotional, mental and spiritual.
Nature has the answer for all man's dilemmas. She has the solution for our energy crisis, our economic situation, and our deteriorating well-being. Collastin is a gift from Nature that offers a solution. It's not one of man's drugs with hundreds of dangerous side effects. In fact, the only upset I have ever encountered with Collastin is that it didn't achieve the desired results. Collastin is not a panacea; there's not such thing! By combining it with the natural ingredients mentioned in this booklet, however, it's very rare when some relief does not occur. On the other hand, the fatty acid esters, including cetyl myristoleate found in Collastin, have worked miracles. Daily, I receive testimonies of those whose lives have been dramatically changed because of Henry W. Diehl's marvelous discovery.
I get very optimistic and hopeful when I see what is happening in the field of human nutrition and using foods to heal the body. These super-foods, like Collastin, have the potential to help mankind through the huge leap it must make if we're to survive the changes coming about on this planet. All we need to do is make the time to listen, trust your guidance, and take the leap! I sincerely appreciate your efforts of achieving true health. For I believe, as we each work at our own healing, there's a collective healing happening in this world. Remember true health takes time; be patient! In addition, remember that disease is a teacher and not something to fear; it's a part of us. Learn the lesson and go on! God speed!
