When I was a kid, my mother would scream at me to take my vitamins. I’m not talking about taking a one a day like we do now. I’m talking about taking a handful of pills. While some may think this is just plain crazy, you might think differently when you read a true story and not just some random facts on a piece of paper. This article will really open up your eyes to the healing power of vitamins.
I was a sick kid. I mean, REALLY sick. I suffered from chronic ear infections every winter, got sick at the drop of a hat and had no energy at all. My eyes were going. At 10 I needed glasses. My mother didn’t think I’d live to see my thirteenth birthday. So she packed me up and took me to see a doctor in New York. His name was Dr. Max Lewitter. I will never forget that man’s face 39 years later. He examined me and told my mother that I needed to be put on a very strict diet and be given mega doses of vitamins. I didn’t mind the diet so much, but all those pills.
So let’s get to all those pills. Well, there were no multi vitamins in the batch because they were all synthetic and he wanted only natural. So I took one vitamin A per day, one vitamin B, 5000 units of vitamin C, which most doctors would tell you is pure insanity, one vitamin D, one vitamin E, two bone meal, one kelp, one pantothenic acid, and one tablespoon of lethicin.
Up until this time, out of a 181 day school year, I was missing about 10 days from each marking period, or about 40 days a year. I was just barely passing my classes. It’s a miracle that I ever made it out of grammar school. By the time I made it into high school, just a few years later, I went through four years of high school and had 3 days out in those four years. I finished 46th out of a class of 575 students.
Some would say, as far as the good grades, I was just growing up. Maybe that had something to do with it. But the illnesses that vanished from my body, as well as my improved eyesight, had nothing to do with growing up. That was a result of eating a well balanced diet and getting plenty of vitamins. Where I used to live in doctors offices, I was now only going twice a year for checkups. My regular doctor couldn’t believe the change in me. Of course not. When I wouldn’t eat because I was sick and my mother asked him what she should do, his answer was give him chocolate cake if that’s what he wants. I’d be dead by now if she listened to him.
I am not at all saying that vitamins are a miracle cure. But today, at age 49, I still hardly ever get sick. When I do get a cold, it’s almost a shock. I don’t take nearly as many pills as I used to take, but I take a good natural multi vitamin and still take plenty of vitamin C each day.
My body isn’t complaining, and either are the people who love me who are glad that I didn’t eat that chocolate cake.
