PANADOL / PARACETAMOL
My husband was working in a hospital as an IT engineer as the hospital is planning to set up a database of its patients and he knows some of the doctors quite well. The doctors used to tell him that whenever they have a headache they are not willing to take PANADOL / PARACETAMOL.
In fact they will turn to herbal medicine or find other alternatives. They say Paracetamol is toxic to the body and harms the liver. According to the doctor Paracetamol will remain in the body for at least 5 years.
And according to the doctor there was an air-hostess who consumed lots of Paracetamol as she needed to stand all the time and work under lots of pressure. She’s now in her early 30’s and she is undergoing kidney cleaning (DIALYSIS) every month.
An alternative solution to cope with this matter is to drink lots of water.
Another method will be to submerge your feet in a basin of warm water so that it brings the blood pressure down from your throbbing head.
As Panadol is a pain killer the more Panadol you take the lower would be your threshold for pain (your endurance level for pain). We all will fall ill as we age.
Imagine that we had spent our entire life popping quite a substantial amount of Panadol (painkiller) when you need to have a surgery or operation you will need a much higher amount of general anaesthesia.
If you have a very high intake of Panadol throughout your life
(for migraine menstrual cramps etc) it is very likely that normal general anaesthetics will have no effects on you as your body is pumped / full with
Panadol and your body is so used to painkillers that you would need a much stronger painkiller like morphine????
