Some years ago, I hosted a talk show about health on a Palm Beach radio station. Someone called in, and wanted to know what to do about fleas, as she was violently allergic to the various poisons that people put on the back of the neck of their dogs.

I had found a solution years ago, and I told it to her. Purchase a large “squeeze bottle” type plastic bottle of Boric Acid. It’s in a fine powder, and if you point the snout down and squeeze the sides, it comes out in a puff of fine powder.

To start, vacuum the carpet(s) where your pets sleep, or, ideally the entire carpet in a house where all the floors are carpeted. After a thorough vacuuming, go around squeezing the boric acid in a cloud all over the carpet. You’ll have to brush some of the excess into the carpet with your shoes, or a broom.

It will take a week or so, but after that, even with outdoors cats and dogs, you will find very few, or no fleas. Boric Acid is virtually harmless, to children, and your pets, but deadly to most insects.

Another thing that I discovered more recently, is a product sold at many health food stores. It’s a product made with mixing common yeast and garlic powder. Mix a half teaspoon into their food every day. Surprisingly, my cats love it mixed into canned tuna. I thought the garlic odor would be a problem.

This helps keep fleas at a distance outside. If you “sniff” closely, you might be able to barely smell the garlic on the skin of your pets. It’s also healthy as the yeast has B vitamins, and the garlic is a natural healthy food for man and beast.

Next, let’s look at cockroaches. They’re the “survivors” for millions of years, and will probably survive after all humans have gone the way of the dinosaurs. Every housewife hates them, and most houses have a few hidden away. (If you live in the South - I live in South Florida - you may be infested at times).

The Boric Acid in the carpets, particularly around the edges and baseboards will keep them mostly out of the house. But, there are a few places where it pays to keep them out as well. Get a few beer bottle caps, and put a small amount of Boric Acid into the bottom these caps.

Place the caps of Boric Acid into the corners of your cupboards. If you have paper in the bottom of your kitchen drawers (or cabinet shelves), take up the
Paper, and do a small Boric Acid spray, then replace the paper.

Don’t forget to spray the Boric Acid under the refrigerator, and the stove.

That night, the entire program was taken up with callers, some telling us how well this worked for them, or asking more questions. Several people called the next time the program was on to thank me and some of my listeners for the above advice.
Much later, I learned how to stop ants, including fire ants. Simply empty one or more “blue” packages of NutraSweet (Aspartame) onto the nest. The next day, the ant hills are gone. To prevent them from entering your home, sprinkle a few grains in the baseboards or any possible entry holes into your home. Aspartame seems to be a deadly poison to most insects, but particularly to ants.

If it’s that deadly to ants, what might it do to some susceptible humans? There are a lot of allergic persons who have had problems with it. Most are unaware that this is a problem. It often causes headaches in fact.

I hope that the above helps you to better health for you and your pets.

Homeopathics can be used for allergies. Homeopathic medicine works by stimulating the immune system to fight off invaders.

Some common homeopathics for allergies are:

Allium cepa: Indications for this remedy include watery eyes and a clear nasal discharge that irritates the upper lip, along with sneezing and a tickling cough. The person usually is thirsty, and feels worse indoors and when rooms are warm, and better in fresh air.

Arsenicum album: A burning, watery, runny nose with a stuffy, tickling feeling during allergy attacks suggests a need for this remedy. Swelling below the eyes and a wheezy cough are common.

Euphrasia: This remedy can be helpful if the eyes are swollen and irritated with acrid tears or pus. The nose also runs, but with a blander discharge. Symptoms are often worse in the daytime and worse from warmth, and the eyes may hurt from too much light.

Ferrum phosphoricum: This is a very useful remedy in the early stages of any inflammation. Taken when allergy symptoms start, it often slows or stops an episode. Symptoms include runny eyes with a burning or gritty feeling, facial flushing, watery nose, and short, hard, tickling cough.

Gelsemium: A tired, droopy feeling during allergies with a flushed and heavy-feeling face suggest a need for this remedy. A sensation of dryness or of swollen membranes may be felt inside the nose-or the nose may run with irritating watery discharge, with the person sneezing frequently.

You may also find homeopathic remedy combinations for allergies. You will find the bottle has something listed on it about allergies, or pollen, or hayfever or sinus.

The dietary habits adopted by developed countries over the last centuries are largely responsible for many of the chronic diseases that are now commonplace in Western society.

Diseases such as coronary heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and cancer of the colon are virtually unheard of among the few hunter-gatherer populations still remaining in the world.

The stone age diet is based on the foods that our hunter-gatherer ancestors would have eaten before they became farmers.

Even over the last fifty years, our food has drastically changed. Where once our food was made up of simple, natural foods with minimal added ingredients, our food now contains a multitude of different ingredients.

Often it can be hard to even find modern-day food that does not contain some form of milk or wheat, which are common triggers in food allergies, and this leads to people eating the same ingredients every day and often at every single meal.

The stone age diet is nutritionally balanced and a very low allergen diet ideal for people who suffer from food allergies or food related ailments.

The foods you can eat on the stone age diet should be from natural sources and include items such as fruit (except citrus), fresh fruit juices (except citrus), all game and fish, free-range eggs, all vegetables, fresh vegetable juices, fresh nuts (except peanuts), herb teas, natural seasonings (salt, black pepper, herbs) and bottled or filtered water.

The foods you must avoid on the stone age diet are milk in all forms, milk products, cereals and their related products, any form of sugar, domesticated animal meat (meat from pigs, cows, sheep etc.), chicken, eggs (unless free-range), citrus fruit, alcohol, coffee, tea and all manufactured foods such as canned, packaged, bottled foods and ready-meals, processed meat or fish, chocolate and cocoa products, spices and tap water.

The above list may seem restrictive but you will find your health and well-being dramatically improves just be removing the foods to avoid from your diet.

There are also some exceptions which you are allowed to eat on the stone age diet which do fit in with our modern lives and dietary practices. Live low-fat yoghurt in moderation is a good addition to the diet and some grains which are well tolerated, even by those with a food allergy, are rice and millet.

If alcohol needs to be consumed (perhaps you’re at a wedding or celebration) then a small amount of dry white wine or real ale can be taken.

The stone age diet is based on natural, nutritionally rich foods and following the dietary habits it provides will ensure you reap the benefits and achieve a strong, fit and healthy body.
