If You Ever Notice Your Kids Sitting Like THIS Stop Them Immediately! The Reason Is Scary!

It is really common to see children sitting in the “W” position, and I have to admit that I always thought that indicated good flexibility.  However, this position can lead to some really serious orthopedic conditions, as it prevents kids from being able to shift their weight and achieve what is called “trunk rotation”.

Not only will this inability to rotate prevent a child from stretching to grasp things out of their immediate reach, but it will have long-term serious consequences.  In order to develop adequate balance reactions, such as the ability to catch a fall, a child needs to have developed this weight-shifting and rotating ability.

These abilities are also integral to crossing the midline, which is necessary for writing. As children develop, each motor skill that gets mastered is necessary to go on to the next one. If bilateral coordination is interrupted because of constant sitting in this “W” position, this can very well lead to significant delays in achieving other skills, such as: developing hand dominance, skipping, throwing, kicking etc.

Additionally, W-sitting causes actual shortening and tightening of the hip and leg muscles, causing the child to be “pigeon-toed” when he walks.  This will eventually lead to complications of back and pelvic pain as they grow.  The video you are about to watch below will help to explain both the physiological dangers of allowing your child to sit in the “W” position, as well as the impairment to properly developing  motor skills.

I for one never knew this and I wish somebody told me about this earlier! Watch the video below to learn more..

He Quickly Wraps A Belt Around The Hinge Of The Door. The Reason Could Actually Save Your Life!

It may seem incomprehensible that the dangers of terroristic attacks in the office place, such as what happened in San Bernardino, California at a holiday party, may become part of our “new normal”.  Heinous attacks like this have occurred in our schools and movie theaters as well.

Our heightened fear of the unexpected terrorist attack is not unrealistic.  As we have always participated in fire drills as a precautionary measure, it seems both logical and prudent, to have exercises to train people how to best survive a terrorist attack domestically.

As many of us do not like the idea of people being armed in the workplace or schools, what tips or tricks can be taught and practiced to help train ordinary citizens going about their day, to defend themselves?  In the video you are about to watch below, safety expert, Bill Stanton, illustrates several ways to protect yourself in the workplace.

He shows us how to place a belt on a door hinge to prevent the door from opening, in addition to using barricades and other utensils commonly found that will help to stop the attack. The point he makes is that you can’t stay frozen and passive under such circumstances.

Acting as a group to fight off the attack may very well mean the difference between life and death.  People have good reason to be scared, in the face of the multiple mass shootings that we awake to on a regular basis.  Fear is paralyzing; it is far better to be empowered with actions that can be taken, to give people a fighting chance, if the unthinkable should occur.

This Woman Was In So Much Pain That She Couldn’t Get Out Of Bed. But Then Her Sister Noticed Something..

Rhonda Gessner began writing a blog about her sister’s mysterious illness in 2001.  She was suffering from severe muscle and stomach spasms.  She went from doctor to doctor over the course of the following year; multiple biopsies did not find any results to explain her symptoms.  They threw prescription drugs at her in an effort to find some solution.

There was some suspicion that she might have Multiple Sclerosis. Nothing definitive could be deduced as the cause for her terrible suffering, and as her health continued to decline she was certain she was dying.  She was getting her affairs in order, and was planning a final trip.  Gessner was on the phone with her one day, when something occurred to her.

She remembered an article a friend had sent her, and asked her sister if she had been drinking Diet Coke.  Oddly enough, she was just about to open one, and said she drank it all the time.  Eureka!!  What was found was that Gessner’s sister had Aspartame poisoning!  Commonly sold as NutraSweet and Equal, the amount of Aspartame she was consuming was lethal!  She quit drinking diet soda and was given a medication to treat the effects of the Aspartame.

Eventually her pain receded, and she recovered.  “Fortune” linked the overuse of aspartame to health problems.  However, there has been no credible research evidence of it’s link to cancer, according to the US National Cancer Institute.  Given the fact that there have been many reports of the kinds of symptoms and illness that are almost identical to what Gessner’s sister suffered, it should give us pause.

The following video you are about to watch, is just such a story told by a woman who nearly died from consumption of Aspartame.  Let us know what you think after you hear her story.

This Isn’t a Normal Insect. If You See One Do Not Go Near It. The Reason is Terrifying!

image via – shutterstock.com

Kissing bugs sound like nice, innocent insects, but they are the exact opposite of that description. The little pests are actually blood sucking parasites who feed on animals and people. They earned the “kissing” name because they tend to operate by biting their sleeping victims around the eye and mouth areas.

In some cases the nasty bugs are even deadly because they are responsible for spreading Chagas disease to both humans and animals. Chagas was once a rare parasitic infection but not anymore. A growing number of people in South America and the US are contracting it. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that approximately 8 million people in Mexico, Central, and South America have Chagas, while in the US over 300,000 people are currently infected!

Many of those who have it are unaware they’ve been infected and it can be life threatening if left untreated. Furthermore, Kissing bugs also transmit Chagas to pets and animals. Dogs are among the most susceptible to the disease and in the state of Texas, where kissing bugs are increasingly common, about 400 of them have died as a result of Chagas already!

The kissing bugs responsible for all of this death and disease are called by their scientific name “Triatomine Bugs.” They bite their unsuspecting victims around the eyes and mouth and when their feces comes into contact with either the bite area, or a mucous membrane like an eye, they pass the parasite known as Trypanosoma Cruzi to the host.

The parasite is spread in this gross manner because it lives in the bug’s feces and that happens to be the main way in which it enters a person or animal’s body. As if that wasn’t already nasty enough, canines can contract Chagas in other ways, such as by eating the bugs or infected animal feces.

Once a human or animal has been infected they usually remain unaware that they have the disease until it’s progressed to a later, and more serious, stage. Furthermore, in some cases it may be asymptomatic, meaning there are no symptoms whatsoever until one appears suddenly out of nowhere.

This later point is why it’s being called the “silent killer” and people are being urged to familiarize themselves the signs and symptoms of Chagas disease, which include the following; confusion, weakness, diarrhea, loss of appetite, depression, lethargy, swollen abdomen, a lack of coordination, seizures or jerky movements, and increased heart rate.

There are currently tests available that can detect Chagas if you ever want to get tested. If you suspect you may have it then definitely get tested right away because when the disease is found early enough it can usually be successfully treated and the harmful side-effects lessened.

Please pass this information on so that others are aware of the dangers that kissing bugs pose, and monitor pets health for any signs of chagas disease.

She Was Diagnosed With Breast Cancer But What Doctors Say Potentially Caused It Left Her Stunned!

Wendy Holt, a 51 year old woman from the UK was diagnosed with breast cancer.  Neither her age, ethnicity, family history nor lifestyle habits provided any pre-existing likelihood that she would develop this disease.

Further, diagnostic tests showed an unusual formation of small tumors, rarely seen.  When she was told that she had breast cancer and was informed of the strange pattern of the tumors, she instinctively knew what had caused this.  Wendy had stored her cellphone inside her bra, on the side where the tumors had developed, every day for years.  In fact, it had been a decade that she had done so, for convenience sake.

The breast where she had stored her cellphone was swollen, which led her to get medical attention.  What was found was a rare and inflammatory type of breast cancer.  According to the Daily Mail, Holt said, “I got my first phone  around 1999 and I was quite big-busted, so I would store it down there and nobody would be able to tell. It was pressed against my skin for probably 70 per cent of the day for about ten years — and I didn’t give it a thought.”

Holt survived the breast cancer, but unfortunately the disease had metastasized to her lungs and lymph nodes.  Her diagnosis is terminal and it will be unlikely that she will live to see her next birthday.  Generously, Holt has used this very sad and horrifying turn in her life, as a forum to forewarn others to never store a cellphone next to your skin on a regular basis.  She said, “People might disagree with my theory, but it’s my belief and I don’t want this to happen to anyone else.”

The doctors and others who were involved with her case, do concur with her theory, given the unusual array of the tumors, which matched the shape and position of how she stored her cellphone within her bra.

Watch the video below, to hear more details about this and other cases, which should be used as a cautionary tale of how to safely store your cellphone.  It should be kept in a pocket or purse, away from actual skin contact.  Sadly, Holt had to learn this through devastating consequences, but wants people to know what the possible consequences are, of phone to skin contact. She plans to take, what will likely be, her final family vacation to Malta.

NOTE: There have not been conclusive studies on this subject and as of today Doctors and Scientists need to collect more data to get definitive conclusive evidence. However, keeping your cell phone away from your skin is advised by cell phone companies and doctors alike.

This Creepy Guy Came Up To A Girl At The Bar But When She Turns Away He Slips THIS In Her Drink!

image via – youtube.com

Women everywhere know that they have to watch their beverages when they’re are out at a bar drinking and having a good time with friends. They know to keep bottles and glasses close by and to have a friend hold or watch their drink if they need to use the restroom or leave for a minute.

But how closely do women actually keep an eye on their drinks? Enough to notice, and thus prevent, anyone from slipping something into it? The answer to that question is what Joey Salads decided to find out. He set up an informal social experiment at an ocean side bar and taped his interactions with various patrons.

The bar wasn’t crowded at all and it took place during daytime hours. The first couple, a man and woman, were sat at the bar with drinks in front of them. Joey engaged them in small talk and was next to the woman. She left to use the restroom and asked the man to watch her drink.

That’s when Joey slipped a pill into her cup, even stirring it around to hide it. The woman’s friend didn’t see a thing and when she returned Joey immediately told her not to drink it, explaining that he’d managed to drug her beverage. The woman appeared speechless for a moment and then kind of annoyed that her friend hadn’t watched her drink and allowed this to happen.

The next couple were at a table, once again Joey engaged them in small talk and commented on the sunset to get their attention focused on it. While they were gazing off into the distance he slipped a pill into the woman’s cup without either of them noticing.

Again, he explained what he’d done and the woman seemed upset that he’d been able to do that so easily, but also thankful for the lesson. The last woman was alone at the bar, waiting to meet a friend, when he slipped a drug into her drink that was right next to her.

She too reacted with disbelief and concern about the fact that someone was able to slip a drug into her cup even though she thought she was keeping a close eye on it. The lesson from all this is that women everywhere need to keep an extremely watchful eye on their drinks and friends when out at a bar.

Anyone, anywhere, at anytime can try to slip drugs into your dink and if you fail to notice, potentially the worst could happen. If possible, try to place a lid or cover on your drink and ask the bartender if they have any, or get creative and improvise a napkin or coaster cover on the fly. Pass on this video to help raise awareness and remember to stay vigilant, alert, and safe.
