I Need Sunglasses — Stat!

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 30, 2009 »

That don’t give me pink-eye or distort my vision.
The wrap-around style popular with hardcore cyclists are considered the best for blocking the evil and sneaky UV rays that like to launch an effective surprise attack from the periphery. The lenses should ideally be brown, grey or dark green, so as not to distort the natural [...]

Colloidal Silver Kills Spores and More

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 29, 2009 »

I don’t care what scare tactics are used to stop you from using properly made colloidal silver; the stuff cleared up a terrible sinus infection that I had tried to alleviate for an agonising two years using traditional methods. It also cleared up a flu virus going around on the film set where I [...]

Macular Degeneration: The Big Mac Attack

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 29, 2009 »

Macular degeneration is the major cause of loss of vision in people over 60. Macular degeneration means that a portion of the retina is deteriorating, resulting in a loss of the central area of the eye’s visual field. It does not affect your peripheral, or side vision. What you see in front of you might [...]

Glaucoma and Pot Tea: More “Bhang” For Your Buck!

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 23, 2009 »

Weed tea, pot tea, cannabis tea, marijuana tea, hemp tea: whatever name you give to it, tea made from cannabis sativa for the temporary alleviation of glaucoma had better do its job. And you have wasted a lot of time and possibly a lot of money if you have assumed that you can simply steep [...]

Yes, the cookies do help!

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 23, 2009 »

Good news about a sad business folks; marijuana does indeed help to alleviate the symptoms of glaucoma, four hours at a time. Well, usually four hours at a time. This recipe is more like… twelve hours at a time!
Pot temporarily reduces the excessive pressure in your eyes caused by glaucoma. This according to the good [...]

What’s the buzz? Tell me what’s happening!

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 21, 2009 »

Oh goody! I have glaucoma! Now I get to smoke pot legally!
Oh joy, oh bliss.
I think that I would rather be able to see. And not through a pot-filled haze, thank you all the same.
Not that I’m judgemental. Far from it. I’m jealous. My pot smoking, toking, eating, tea drinking days are long gone. Can [...]

I Only Have Eyes For You

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 21, 2009 »

That’s right! This post is entirely dedicated to eyes. Okay, the title is a bit corny, or should I say a bit cornea?
No.
I should not.
OcuPhase eye drops,  originally formulated in Europe, dissolve cataracts. This removes the need for traditional surgery in one hundred per cent of newly forming, fledgling cataracts, and in 80 per cent [...]

The Eyes Have It

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 21, 2009 »

Or do they?
Are your eyes getting the nutritional ingredients they need to fend off macular degeneration? Glaucoma? Cataracts?
Age-related eye conditions such as those just mentioned have long been thought irreparable by most laymen and health practitioners. Of course, there is surgery to remove cataracts, but can we prevent them in the first place?
What can be [...]

The HairMax Laser Comb — FDA Approved

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 20, 2009 »

I think that it is time to begin covering health issues for we wanna-be eternals and growing old not-so-graciously people in a head-to-toe fashion. I think that we are actually the majority, but the gods don’t seem to be interested in a democratic system, as humans have been voting for youth, health, beauty and longevity [...]

The Orange Blossom Special!

« Posted by Pat Franczyk on October 16, 2009 »

Work in film has been a wee bit slow lately, so myself and a number of my colleagues have branched out into building and tearing down exhibits and displays. LIUNA Local 506, rah, rah, rah! Good people. We took the time to get all of our trade tickets such as first aid and CPR, crane [...]
