Canadian Now Have A New Health Information Website!

Health BC Interior Health Blog
The website “My Health Reference” is a unique consumer based health website due to be the main online health reference for Canadians. This website will provide specific health information for most health ailments and will soon become the website of choice for health issues for Canadians. It is now common practice to go online and look up a health problem before even visiting your local Physician or primary medical clinic.
“My Health Resource” fills the need for Canadians to have a comprehensive, reliable and credible health resource for all their health needs and information of interest. The information provided on My Health Resource is comprehensive, easy to navigate and relevant to Canadian health content.
This website is not designed to replace expert medical advice from professional Doctors, but instead focuses on health (medical conditions, symptoms, and expert advice) that will prepare you for further investigation with your local Physician.

VICKS Vapor Rub – INTERESTING
During a lecture on Essential Oils, they told us how the foot soles can absorb oils. Their example: Put garlic on your feet and within 20 minutes you can ‘taste’ it.
Some of us have used Vicks Vapo Rub for years for everything from chapped lips to sore toes and many body parts in between. But I’ve never heard of this. And don’t laugh, it works 100% of the time, although the scientists who discovered it aren’t sure why. To stop night time coughing in a child (or adult as we fou
nd out personally), put Vicks Vapo Rub generously on the soles of your feet, cover with socks, and the heavy, deep coughing will stop in about 5 minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief. Works 100% of the time and is more effective in children than even very strong prescription cough medicines. In addition it is e
xtremely soothing and comforting and they will sleep soundly
Just happened to tune in A.M.. Radio and picked up this guy talking about why cough medicines in kids often do more harm than good, due to the chemicals in them This method of using Vicks Vapo Rub on the soles of the feet was found to be mo
re effective than prescribed medicines for children at bed time. In addition it seems to have a soothing and calming effect on sick children who then went on to sleep soundly.
