Group of 7 not needed for Pfizer shot

June 16, 2022 10 Comments

Yesterday morning I walked into the Central de Salud next to the military hospital for a Pfizer shot by myself and was out within 10 minutes. My wife got the last Pfizer shot the afternoon before at about 2 PM so it is best to arrive in the morning. There have been a couple of posts in the last week claiming that there needs to be 6 people to open a vial which I found to be untrue at least at the one next to the military hospital.

Nobody wants to hear about personal views regarding vaccines—keep them to yourself. This post is to help others get what they feel they need.

Chelation therapy

June 16, 2022 No Comments

Chelation therapy is an IV infusion therapy that helps rid your body of toxins. During therapy, I infuse a chemical called EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), which binds with toxic metals in your blood (mercury, copper, arsenic, aluminum) and removes them from your body.

Clogged arteries contain calcium and other mineral and heavy metal deposits that bring about blockage through the process called atherosclerosis. Effectively reverses atherosclerosis by removing these unwanted deposits via chelation therapy, a good healthy diet and exercise.

What are the benefits of Chelation?

Recommendation for Carnales Mexican Grill, Mexican restaurant

June 16, 2022 3 Comments

I am originally from Arizona, so I know a little something about Sonoran cuisine, and Carnales definitely nails it. They make their own flour tortillas every day, which is a huge plus, but also they offer a range of meats to choose from. My favorite is the braised beef, or carne guisada as it is listed on their menu. Wonderful place to have dinner, and the owner speaks English as he grew up eating Mexican food in New York City. Great place, fun atmosphere and attentive service, you just can’t ask for more.

I required Monica’s services since I wanted to get a new visa and cedula. She was very professional and helped me with all the requirements and paperwork. First, we met by zoom and she gave me all the detailed information of what I needed so I didn’t receive any “surprise” when I arrived here. Her explanations were very clear and I didn’t have any problem.

I want to recommend her to all the expat community. Monica and her staff will help you with whatever you need.
