No eye protection needed. Far infrared is the same heat emitted by your own

body.

I have had a lot of requests for the references. I will post them at

The more I read (which is woefully little compared to so many

others), the more I'm thinking that ADD, Aspergers and autism are

related-so many of the symptoms overlap-the degree of the problem

seems to be what drs are picking up on and thus labeling this way.

There has to be a physical root. We all are exposed to heavy metals,

pesticides and etc, but each generation is more at risk (I've read

that these things actually can change the DNA/RNA structure) and

then the mother can physically pass this to the child also. TO get

back to sweating, I always wondered how simply exercise could help-

maybe this is because when you reach a certain and sustained level

you're sweating out the toxins. BUT then a person should shower to

get totally rid of that batch, or else you'd simply reabsorb it thru

your skin? Guess I'm thinking out loud. THanks to all of you for

pursuing this. I had my son's dr draw blood to check for vit B

defiency and also asked to check for heavy metals (hopefully he'll

check for them all)-at that point I didin't know what to

specifically ask for and then too he looked at me like I was totally

crazy and then when they drew the blood the lady said that this was

very unusual for someone to check for heavy metals and they would

have to send it away as here locally they don't run those tests.

This was last Fri, so hopefully we'll get the results soon. I feel

that I'm running out of time to help my son as he's 18, quit reg

school and is slowly taking classes at the local Comm COllege to get

his High school diploma, but the motivation and .... isn't there yet

to really push himself. My husband is currently recieveing the

shots and pills for Hepatits C that was apparently gotten either in

combat in Vietnam or from a blood transfusion in 1974 so am trying

to educate myself about this as well... Take care all, please feel

free to comment or give suggestions. Thanks so much-Rose

Thank you for explaining, so a person would need to actually buy a

sauna that does this then as I've never heard or anything remotely

like this around here. (Iowa in the US) Rose

Rose- dont despair about the Dr looking at you weird :-)

Trust me I have had many of those looks and rolling of the eyes. I

have even had a Ped dismiss my son as a patient because of the

questions I was raising about the vaccine issue. That was a

first...lol

I was on my way out the door to find a new Ped anyway but it

confirmed to me that most MD's out there wont accept the discovery

that these vaccines are not what they are cracked up to be.

Yes my son is overwieght- 6ft 1inch and 350 pounds, is still getting

taller I think. Hope to get him back to using the treadmill and

weight machine soon on a regular basis. He sweats easily (at least

compared to me, but then I'm used to being outside and doing more

physical labor than he is). This weight is why I'm wondering about

an in ability to absorb nutrients, am just starting to think about

this also-Rose

Our regular family dr (who I was talking about, said yes he knew

mercury/thimersol was bad, but there just wasn't anything that was

good to preserve the shots. I also mentioned my son's allergy shots

(which he's gotten routinely since he was around 10 I think). (He

looked at me sideways that time...LOL) I've not had time to pursue

that route yet, son has decided on his own not to take them anymore,

which hopefully will work out OK. Oh my husband apparently has

antibodies to Hepatitis A, but not B, so apparently they will give

him the seires of Hepatitis B shots when he's done with the

Hepatitis C medicines. Wonder about this also as he's becoming more

short of breath (a side effect of the meds)...Both of our children

got those (Hep B series) in school maybe 6-7 years ago and I got it

at work as I was working in the hospital at the time- wonder about

those shots also....Thanks for the encouragement... Rose

I am not sure that this applies to people with adrenal problem. It might further

stress the adrenals.

-- exercise is hugely important and we don't talk about it enough.

Sweating is important but not the most important part. Evidence is

emerging that intense weight training helps mental processing more

than volume training (ie endurance exercise). It actually measurably

alters neurotransmitters and reduces inflammation throughout the

body, including the brain

I have spoken to a doctor in Sydney who is using weights to reduce

depression and aging-related diseases with good results, and I have

spoken to a researcher in Western Australia who is studying the

effects of exercie on patients with alzheimers and aging related

cognitive impairment. both believe weights used at relatively high

intensity are best

but all forms of exercise are healthy, and exercise-related therapies

such as kinesiology can also help neurological problems

It is amazing how many people with neurological and psychological

problems are overweight or have poor fitness

Dumb question- what all is involved with adrenal problems- what

should I be looking for or??? Thanks ROse

I'm certain that exercise is good for people with adrenal problems,

but the key is to not overdo it. I've checked a few references that

say exercise can be very helpful, but over-exerise or failing to

allow enough time or rest for recovery between sessions would make

things much worse.

My son has very serious adrenal problems - I think there is mercury

in his adrenals - and he definitely benefits from exercise. the hard

part is getting a sluggish 4.5yr old to exercise

He has fairly low tone in his upper body and we make him walk on his

hands wheelbarrow style most days
