Inspiring Lyme Disease Testimonial
Two years ago, I began using The Ultimate Monolaurin to help recover from Lyme’s Disease and numerous co-infections. Desperate for answers (as most Lyme’s sufferers are), I happened upon your product through an internet search and was impressed with the research on how this product can deal with those tough spirochetes! So, I took a chance and bought my first container of The Ultimate Monolaurin.
It certainly wasn’t any more expensive than a lot of the medications I’d been recommended to take in the past, so I figured I didn’t have much to lose. As it turns out, the gain was beyond what I could have imagined. Today, I am 90% free of all symptoms related to my illness.
I continue to take the maintenance dosage of The Ultimate Monolaurin on a daily basis. I don’t find it a coincidence that 12 years of suffering and symptoms was almost completely eliminated within 2 years of starting to use this product as part of my comprehensive recovery plan. Thank you for offering a low-cost, natural option that has made a significant impact on my physical condition! H.D. – Ohio

Just for Today
We can do anything for one day. So, just for today, let us be unafraid of life, unafraid of death which is the shadow of life; unafraid to be happy, to enjoy the beautiful, to believe the best.
Just for today let us live one day only, forgetting yesterday and tomorrow, and not trying to solve the whole problem of life at once.

Who You Are Speaks Louder
Than Anything You Say
At the beginning of my 8:00 am class one Monday at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, I cheerfully asked my students how their weekend had been. One young Man said that his weekend had not been very good. He’d had his wisdom teeth extracted. The young man then proceeded to ask me why I always seemed to be so cheerful. His question reminded me of something I’d read somewhere before: “Every morning when you wake up, you have a choice about how you want to approach life that day”, I said to the young man. “I choose to be cheerful.” “Let me give you an example”, I continued.
The other 60 students in the class ceased their chatter and began to listen to our conversation. As soon as I had arrived to work, I called AAA and asked them to send a tow truck. The secretary in the Provost’s office asked me what had happened. “This is my lucky day”, I replied, smiling. “Your car breaks down and today is your lucky day??” She was puzzled. “What do you mean?”
“I live 17 miles from here”, I replied. “My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway. It didn’t. Instead, it broke down in the perfect place: off the freeway, within walking distance from here. I’m still able to teach my class, and I’ve been able to arrange for a tow truck to meet me after class. If my car was meant to break down today, it couldn’t have been arranged in a more convenient fashion.” The secretary’s eyes opened wide, and then she smiled. I smiled back and headed for class. So ended my story to the students in my economics class.
I scanned the 60 faces in the lecture hall. Despite the early hour, no one seemed to be asleep. Somehow, my story had touched them. Or maybe it wasn’t the story at all. In fact, it had all started with a student’s observation that I was Cheerful. A wise man once said: “Who you are speaks louder to me than anything you can say.” I suppose it must be so.

Inspiring MRSA Testimonial
Hi, my name is Tom, I came to this website (PPT-Health) with questions about my wife that had MRSA. She had it so bad that the doctor after her 3rd surgery said she was going to die. They could not even come close to killing the MRSA.
She is in a wheelchair has had MS for 43 yrs but I didn’t want MRSA to be what kills her. I sent an email with my questions and they recommended the MRSA Protocol. I started her on Monolaurin and Bio-fibrin and within 2 weeks she was getting better (along with cleaning up her UTI infection).
She is alive today because of these products. We have told hundreds about them and have seen miraculous results in many lives. It was an answer to my prayers that night when God led me to their site, thank you very much!!!

Warning: Brain Tease!
Dear Sirs,
I have a very complicated benefits question.
Many years ago, I married a widow out of love who had an 18 year old daughter.
After the wedding, my father, a widower, came to visit a number of times, and he fell in love with my step daughter.
My father eventually married her without my authorization.
As a result my step-daughter became my step mother and my father became my son in law.
My father’s wife (also my step daughter) and my step-mother, gave birth to a son who is my grandchild because I am the husband of my step daughter’s mother. This boy is also my brother, as the son of my father.
As you can see, my wife became a grandmother, because she is the mother of my father’s wife. Therefore it appears that I am also my wife’s grandchild.
A short time after these events, my wife gave birth to a son, who became my father’s brother-in-law, the step-son of my father’s wife, and my uncle.
My son is also my step mother’s brother, and through my step-mother, my wife has become a grandmother and I have become my own grandfather.
In light of the above mentioned, I would like to know the following:
Does my son, who is also my uncle, my father’s son-in-law and my step mother’s brother fulfil the requirements for receiving childcare benefits?
Sincerely yours,
September 1, 2017

Doctor Visits!
A man walked into a doctor’s office and the receptionist asked him what he had. The man said: ‘Shingles.’ So she wrote down his name and address and told him to have a seat.
Fifteen minutes later a nurse’s aide came out and asked the man what he had.
He said, ‘Shingles.’ So she wrote down his height, weight, a complete medical history and told him to wait in the examining room.
A half hour later a nurse came in and asked the man what he had. Again he said, ‘Shingles.’ So the nurse gave him a blood test, a blood pressure test, an electrocardiogram, and told him to wait for the doctor.
An hour later the doctor came in and found the man sitting patiently in an examination gown and asked him what he had. Again he said, ‘Shingles.’ The doctor asked, ‘Where?’
The man said, ‘Outside on the truck. Where do you want me to unload ’em??’

50 Dollars is 50 Dollars!
Walter took his wife Ethel to the fair every year, and every time he would say, “Ethel, you know I’d love to go for a ride in that helicopter.” Ethel always replied, “I know that Walter, but that helicopter ride is $50 and 50 dollars is 50 dollars.”
Finally, one year at the fair, Walter said to Ethel, “Ethel, you know I’m 87 years old now. If I don’t ride that helicopter this year, I may never get another chance.” Once again Ethel replied, “Walter, you know that helicopter is $50 and 50 dollars is 50 dollars.”
The helicopter pilot overheard the couple’s conversation and said, “Listen folks, I’ll make a deal with you. I’ll take both of you for a ride; if you can both stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word I won’t charge you! But if you say just one word, it’s 50 dollars.”
Walter and Ethel agreed and up they went in the helicopter. The pilot performed all kinds of fancy moves and tricks, but not a word was said by either Walter or Ethel. The pilot did his death-defying tricks over and over again, but still there wasn’t so much as one word said. When they finally landed, the pilot turned to Walter and said, “Wow! I’ve got to hand it to you. I did everything I could to get you to scream or shout out, but you didn’t. I’m really impressed!”
Walter replied, “Well, to be honest, I almost said something when Ethel fell out – but, you know, 50 dollars is 50 dollars!”

Grizzly Bears: What You Need to Know!
The Newfoundland Department of Fish and Game is advising hikers, hunters, and fishermen to take extra precautions and be alert for bears while in the fields.
“We advise that outdoorsmen wear small bells on their clothing so as not to startle bears that aren’t expecting them, and to carry pepper spray with them in case of an encounter.”
Outdoorsmen should recognize the difference between black bear and grizzly bear droppings. Black bear droppings are smaller and contain lots of berries and fur.
Grizzly bear droppings have little bells in it and smell like pepper.

Life Choices
The first lady and the president were traveling in their limo and had to stop for gas on their way to their event. When they had stopped, she seemed to recognize the man pumping their gas and got out of the car. After visiting with the man and laughing, she gave him a quick hug and got back in the limo.
“Who was that?” asked the president.
“Just an old boyfriend of mine.” She replied.
“So let me get this straight… You are married to me – the most powerful man in the free world but you could have married him and been the wife of a man who pumps gas for a living.” Said the president with his chest puffed out in pride.
“Don’t be silly, dear. If I would have married him, HE would have been president!”

“That, Madam,” sighed the guide, “is the easiest of all – by the odor of peanuts on his breath.”

Tooth Fairy’s Cash Payouts Hit All-Time High!
Do you remember the pure excitement of finding a shiny quarter beneath your pillow left by the Tooth Fairy? Well, things have changed a bit in recent years…
Did you know that in 2016 the Tooth Fairy’s cash payouts have soared to an all-time high averaging $4.66 per tooth? That’s a whopping 75-cent increase from 2015.
Last year, the Tooth Fairy paid roughly $290.6 million in the U.S. for lost teeth! Cash payouts for a first lost tooth are typically a little higher than average.
In the U.S., the Tooth Fairy visits around 85% of the nation’s households with children; and in a majority of those homes, leaves money.
Although most of the homes the Tooth Fairy hits receive money, the fairy is also known to occasionally leave gifts that promote dental health, such as toothpaste or toothbrushes.
The Tooth Fairy can be a great way for parents to help start conversations with children on oral hygiene and promoting healthy habits.
Tip For Cleaning Up After A Sandy Outing
Nothing makes you feel like a giddy child again like a trip to the beach! Carving out holes with your heels as waves recede, building sand castles and writing messages with driftwood pens make for loads of fun!
But when it’s time for the car-ride home you find it’s as if the sand has been glued to your fingers and toes and wants to tag along… Here is what to do when it is time to load up and you are covered from head to toe in sand!
Clean up hot, sweaty, sand-covered children (or adults) with baby powder. Sprinkle it on their skin to remove moisture and the sand will fall off almost by itself. If only our parents had known this trick!

Sherlock and Watson Go Camping…
Sherlock Holmes and Watson decided they wanted to go camping.
They were enjoying the great outdoors and in the evening sat around the warm campfire.
After a while, they got tired and went to bed.
In the middle of the night, Sherlock Holmes woke suddenly and shook Watson awake.
“Wha-what-what’s the matter!?” said Watson, half asleep.
Sherlock Holmes replied, “Look up at the sky and tell me what you deduce?”
“Well…” said Watson. “I see there are thousands of stars.
If there are thousands of stars, I deduce there are many other planets.
And if there are other planets, I deduce there must be life.
Therefore, I deduce there must be other life in the universe.”
“No!” Sherlock Holmes said, “Someone stole our tent!”

Origins of Common Phrases
HOGWASH
Steamboats carried both people and animals. Since pigs smelled so bad they would be washed before being put on board. The mud and other filth that was washed off was considered useless “hogwash”.
A ‘SHOT OF WHISKEY’
In the old west a .45 cartridge for a six-gun cost 12 cents, so did a glass of whiskey. If a cowhand was low on cash he would often give the bartender a cartridge in exchange for a drink. This became known as a “shot” of whiskey.
COBWEB
The Old English word for “spider” was “cob”.
SLEEP TIGHT
Early beds were made with a wooden frame. Ropes were tied across the frame in a crisscross pattern. A straw mattress was placed on top of the ropes. Over time the ropes stretched, causing the bed to sag. The owner would then tighten the ropes to get a better night’s sleep.
THE WHOLE NINE YARDS
American fighter planes in WW2 had machine guns that were fed by a belt of cartridges. The average plane held belts that were 27 feet (9 yards) long. If the pilot used up all his ammo he was said to have given it the whole nine yards.
BUYING THE FARM
This is synonymous with dying. During WW1 soldiers were given life insurance policies worth $5,000. This was about the price of an average farm, so if you died you “bought the farm” for your survivors.
PASSING THE BUCK / THE BUCK STOPS HERE
Most men in the early west carried a jack knife made by the Buck knife company. When playing poker it as common to place one of these Buck Knives in front of the dealer so that everyone knew who he was. When it was time for a new dealer the deck of cards and the knife were given to the new dealer. If this person didn’t want to deal he would “pass the buck” to the next player. If that player accepted, then “the buck stopped there”.
OVER A BARREL
In the days before CPR a drowning victim would be placed face-down over a barrel and the barrel would be rolled back and forth in an effort to empty the lungs of water. It was rarely effective; hence, if you are over a barrel you are in deep trouble.
