Sep/Oct 2014

September 23rd marks the beginning of fall, and Public Health Alert is thrilled to offer you an issue that is both enlightening and educating as you enter yet another new season in your life. On the enlightening side, herbalist Julie McIntyre speaks candidly about using chronic illness as a path to healing your spirit and body, author Tony Sorendo speaks about overcoming chronic pain, and Dahlia Mikha talks about the power of self-belief. On the educational side, Dr. Lee Cowden shares his current perspective on treating Lyme and Lyme co-infections, actress Elizabeth Wicander offers her insight on the treatment and prevention of PANDAS, the brilliant mind behind Tired of Lyme (www.tiredoflyme.com) provides us with a guide of 11 things besides treatment that can make a person with chronic Lyme disease feel worse, and, since September is recognized as “National Honey Month,” Dr. Peter Molan informs us on the medicinal benefits of Manuka Honey. Enjoy!
