Awareness of what is optimally beneficial for one's recovery is one factor.
If you do not know of the existence of a therapy or supplement which can benefit you, making an effort to find it, obtain it, and take it ... will not be made. That is one of the reasons for providing a supplement chart and daily list here. They provide a STARTING point. In addition, with dependable testing strategies, one may determine which stores or pharmacies to search in and which items in those locations are best for one. NOTE that what is optimal must also be available to you, and, be within your financial resources.

YOUR Personality, Imprinting, and Energy Blocks will often condition the degree of your SUCCESS and the rate of your recovery, or lack thereof. If you are not somewhat aggressive, you will not likely have found your way to this page and this site. Others will do little of the work needed for your recovery. Without the below awareness of the Reality to be faced, the Authoritarian follower will quickly drown in the ocean of possibilities, or, be sufficated in the depression which arises from trying one New Age perfect solution after another only to find minimal benefit and major cost. Make no apology for your desire to live the better life God wants for you. Do be understanding of the limitations and orientations of others. Recognize that chronic illness IS an epidemic in most commercialized and industrialized nations. If the status quo systems were working, the opposite would be true. Take a HOLISTIC approach. Concentrate on YOUR part.

Resources are often a disturbing limitation on the breadth of one's options.
The Earthtym.net website and the Health-4-All Package have a combination of low cost and moderate cost possibilities for you. As clean drinking water is becoming rare, options like juicing and the use of enemas may not be appropriate. Rationally, they may seem obvious necessities. In Reality, and by Guidance, you may be best to avoid them. The availability of supplements in your location may also be minimal. Again, where cost and access is a concern, Spiritual Guidance or muscle testing will indicate what is best for you of what is available and relevant for you.

Food selection CAN also enhance your recovery.
Choosing foods which are not suited to your blood type WILL weaken your Reptilian Structure. This will usually frustrate your other efforts at recovering your health. In some specific selections, you may find that your daily testing indicates that you include one or more foods which are known to weaken those with your blood type. This may be necessary as a means of balancing the complexity of requirements and efforts being exerted by your Identity Factors and Immune System. This can enable your life system to make an optimum effort without allowing it to over-respond and become hyperactive and hypersensitive.

Empathy and openness is rare in the supplement industry.
Just because you are usually in contact with persons who are NOT part of the conventional care monarchy, do not assume that your concerns will, or can, be understood. Remember that most of the persons working in these areas have been imprinted, to some degree, with Authoritarian perceptions, and, have acquired many New Age assumptions. No experience and a little knowledge can be a dangerous combination.

Many retail customer service advisors and many alternative therapists will assume that what has seemed to work for them MUST work for you, based on the barest description of your experience. The Reality is that if someone has been seriously chronically ill, they are NOT likely working at such a post. Most are either still spending most of their day trying to stay alive, or, have died for lack of options known to them and the empathy and professionalism required of others to effectively assist them. LISTEN well, then test, for yourself.

Competency and Quality do NOT always go together.
In one case, I was Guided to no longer buy an optimum brand of supplement because it was only available from a company which proved, that in spite of their best intentions, the reality was that they provided poor access, poor delivery, and poor customer service. A secondary quality item, in this case, came with much less negative experience. For 10% less effectiveness, it arrived in several days at my door compared to my having to aggressively follow-up with a company to receive the original in 3 weeks at a pickup site requiring car transportation. Including the free delivery provided with the second source, the second option was obtained at a 10% reduction in total cost over the first. For a seriously ill person, TIME is an important consideration.

Access to a supplement may be difficult if the stores in your area do not presently stock it and do not see a need, beyond that of your request. Unless they can order in bulk, they may not find their retailer markup, less the shipping costs, to be attractive. Quality rarely comes at a cheap price and chronically ill persons often quickly find themselves in a financially restrictive position. For the retailer, that means that too often those who will provide them with the greatest demand will also go wherever they can buy for less.

Chain, franchise, and branch store sources can have benefits and disadvantages.
They may have toll free order centers which will ship free if your order is over a minimum, and, provide you with a small additional discount for the use of their warehouse service over the pricing and discounts available at the outlets. With their combined purchasing power, they will often be able to provide the brands they carry at better prices than any of their competition. Depending on the country and their location, they may elect to purchase ONLY from several manufacturers, and this can minimize selection of brands and special quality items.

Ordering over the Internet CAN provide considerable benefits.
Many chronically ill persons have incomes limited by their illnesses, or have become poor through their attempts at sustaining themselves and finding recovery. One may find a product available, during a special online sale, which will cost as little as 50% of the cost for which it is available in a retail store. That may even include free shipping. Such persons may no longer own a car and the additional cost of a taxi or public transit also raises the total cost of the products obtained. It is hard to exceed lower cost with delivery to, or near, one's door within 2 or 3 days, with excellent customer service ... but do not expect that to be the norm.

If one is ordering over the Internet, be aware that different sites will provide different methods of payment options and shipping possibilities. Faster deliveries often mean higher charges. The shipping service, courier, or post office may have stipulations on minimum cost, package sizes and weights, pick up and drop-off times, and method of payment. Don't assume that you can use any size or any weight. Be aware that some shipping companies hold individual items for shipment until they have a truck filled before any of the items leave the warehouse.

A Drop shipping service is used by some websites and doctor's pages to mail the books, devices, and supplements which they show on their website and promote in their newsletter. Some services are much more costly than others and the resulting invoice total may double the retail cost of the item you are ordering. Consider whether you will require multiples of some items and if by ordering more, the shared shipment cost per unit becomes lower. Remember that shipment includes packaging materials, a box or padded envelope, and promotional materials. You may be able to elect to not have free, yet additional weight and space catalogs and flyers added to your order.

Ordering over the phone can result in communication problems which lead to serious delivery delays. In one very unusual week, I had two orders mislabelled. A new postal clerk missed finding one for me when I asked for it from General Delivery, even though that evening I found from the tracking information that it had been recorded as delivered early that morning. When I could return, several days later, I found that the sender had mispelled the first letter on my name. Fortunately, the longer-term clerk did not notice the difference. After year 2000, some North American postal depots replaced most of their full-time staff with part-timers and temporary staff. Other mixups, like delivering to an adjacent post box, can also happen.

In a similar incident, a package being delivered by courier to a pickup address delivered the package even though the first letter of the LAST name was here also incorrect. This order had also been arranged by phone with the name being spelled out, twice. A vowel had been added to the beginning of the name. Here, the delivery depended upon the receiver accepting the package, which she did mainly because it carried her address. Most couriers focus mainly on the specified address and if the person at that address signs for it, they expect that it has reached the correct location. It may not have, IF, the address numbers are transposed or otherwise in error.

Institutional considerations are also wise to consider.
Postal services in Canada, the UK, and the USA all use their own forms of regional codes. A Zip code which has a wrong, transposed, missing, or illegible numeral WILL be sent to the wrong territory. This is also true for Canadian and British postal codes with the addition that the incorrect sequencing of alphabetic and numeral characters can further frustrate the system. In these delivery institutions, the code is the Most important part of the address. Everything else in the address can be spelled incorrectly and the item still has a good chance of correct delivery. If the package can get to the correct region, similar addresses and names are possible to cross-reference. A wrong code can see your package hundreds, or even thousands of miles/kilometers from the intended destination. It could be delayed, or, it may simply be returned to the sender.

For shipments within the USA, please note that UPS (United Parcel Service) and the USPS (United States Postal Service) are competitors. If you want your package delivered to General Delivery or a Post Office Box, this WILL NOT be allowed by the USPS if UPS is used. Don't expect the retailer to know this. General Delivery may be an attractive option for Canadians living near the USA border. Remind your shipper NOT to use the street address of the postal depot. They do not like this and it apparently does not help delivery. They know where they are located! With Free Trade in effect, the transfer of mail across the border by mail might not be expected to be complicated, yet it may delay delivery by up to 2 or 3 weeks!

Political considerations can sometimes create severe problems.
In mid-2005, a special enzyme supplement from a Canadian company was unavailable within Canada because their manufacturer was in the USA and the Canadian government had placed a restriction on the product denying import until it passed authorization. The product had previously been available for several years without restriction and without complaints. It WAS available from their USA warehouse to addresses within the USA. Further, as many as 3 bottles could be brought across the border into Canada by individuals.

Cultural considerations can create severe problems of access.
While in Australia in 2002, I could not find timed release Vitamin C in ANY health food store or pharmacy. Most said they had never heard of it. Eventually, I found it in one of the major food superstores. In a similar manner, I could not find alpha lipoic acid available in but one store in 1800 kilometres, and there, it was priced at 10 times the Canadian price! Most of what I needed, I had shipped from Canada.

FIRST, to be successful at survival, determine which supplements and/or therapies you will best benefit from NOW. Don't assume this to be long-term or permanent. TEST daily for what is best for you and in what dosages. IF you experience any symptoms of overdose, suspect the degree of skill and accuracy of the testing person. By using Spiritual Guidance I have only once had a brief experience of overdose and that was in the early times when I purposely chose a rationalized dosage over a Guided one, when my Identity factors thought they knew better. Accurate muscle testing is dependable for self-direction.

SECOND, to be successful at survival, determine where you can obtain these requirements and in which volume or to what degree. TIMING is most important. What WILL be effective for you at some point may depend upon how strong your Reptilian System is. You may best take a less effective option, temporarily, so as not to weaken further your Reptilian Structure (including the Immune System). Chronically ill persons HAVE such a weakened system. Too much too soon can result in more damage. Too little too late can result in permanent injury or death. Balance is the answer. Patience and self-direction are the requirements.

THIRD, be proactive in limiting miscommunication, whenever possible. Always try to follow-up with an e-mail of the details of the order, unless, you receive a copy of the invoice by e-mail, immediately. In that case, check it for accuracy and report any errors, immediately. If speaking on the phone, ask the clerk to spell the words of the names and address back to you in order for you to check their hearing and accuracy. IF you have any questions about a product you are ordering which relate to allergies, or, to herb and drug interactions, or, to relevancy for a particular illness ... send an e-mail to the customer service department of the supplier, or phone them.
