Todays world is vastly becoming prescription-oriented.Ok, I don't have to tell you about all the new dynamic drugs on the the market today.Just the sheer impact of the T.V. sponsored programs can suggest and give you these in mass volumes.But what about those old home remedies we relied on in the past, chicken soup,camomile tea, and the likes.Did you know that a combination of vinegar and oil helps to stop spiders forming webs inside the home?How about water and vanilla favoring for small gnats.And the so many usages of Apple cider vinegar is beyond me.How did this all start?Did we as a society just woke up and said enough is enough and back to basics was the new order of the day.Things like CBD oil, herbal tea,teas for diet,olive oil as a moisturizer who will think of the next great potion.Snake oil salesman I tell you, just snake oil salesman.
Ok,I maybe getting off target with the humor but where is this all going.Does anyone remember Amway?Yes, the multi-level marketing company that sold us soap packaged in a lifestyle choice. The product was not the soap but the awesome lifestyle that came with exclusive membership into Gold status and what it all meant to be a success.The soap we use today still cleans as well as Amway, but was Amway destined to become extinct.Well, I think not.If you look at what companies are producing today you could say today's new home remedies are certainly not your grandmas recipes.The Atkins,the Herballifes,the Jennys you'd would have thought that your grandma was giving these companies a helping hand in production.These products are all safe to use without any side effects whatsoever.They a considered all to be naturally conceived and produce without any harmful GMOs.Everything is organically grown harvested from farm to table including our local and franchised restaurant!Why you can say big business is all about our health today, even tobacco companies are getting in on the health crave.Those old remedies have really made major advances.And lets not forget the lifestyle marketing of most of these products.I for one am certainly not going to be caught without those fantastic little Tide pods!I just love them as much as life itself.
I started this essay to write about how something so innocent as our mothers chicken soup and our Grandpa's cure for strep throat remedies has transformed into todays everyday life.But what about some of the new products made to make life easier.Self-driving cars for instance.Or research to develop cures for aging,Cryonics?Cryonics seek to study cures for aging by freeezing ones vital organs and regenerating these parts in the future.The head being the main source of reanimation.The body is preserved until new medical cures are developed.The amount of study in this field is exhausting and scientist as well as moralist alike are grappling about the notion of life after death.What do you think my friends?Who will be the next big inventor of our new remedy for Death.Hey, Grandma, where you going with that Ax in 'yo hand!!! Thanks for exploring the mystery of the universe with me.
