Recognizing a stroke

A friend just emailed this to me this useful info.
BB

STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
The woman stumbled and took a little fall ... she assured everyone she was fine (they offered to call paramedics)... she claimed she tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food.
Though she appeared a bit shaken up, the lady went about enjoying herself the rest of the afternoon. Her husband called later saying that his wife had been taken to the hospital and passed away. She had suffered a stroke at the party. Had
they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps the woman would be with us today. Some stroke victims don't
die, they end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead.
It only takes a minute to read this...
A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within three hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke . . . totally. He said the trick was having a stroke recognized, diagnosed and then getting the patient medically cared for within three hours, which is tough.

RECOGNIZING A STROKE:
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
S *Ask the individual to SMILE.
T *Ask the person to TALK, to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE. (Coherently) (i.e. . . "It is sunny out today")
R *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.
NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out their tongue . if the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes
to one side or the other, that is also an indication of a stroke.
If he or she has trouble with any one of these tasks, call 911 immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.
A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to ten people, you can bet at least one life will be saved.

The above information was from an AIM brochure The Foundation of
Good Health 2001

Barley juice has been part of our daily nutritional diet for over 21 years.
I feel confident that is the reason that my family enjoys the good health we
do. We do not get the flu and very seldom do we have the sniffles.
Twenty one years ago when we were introduced to Barley juice from AIM,
my two youngest, ages two and six months, suffered from asthma. We
were able to control the asthma attacks with Lobelia when they had an
attack, but that did not eliminate the attacks. After taking them off dairy
products(there was more nutrition in the barley juice) and having them
take up to 4 teaspoons of barley juice daily in apple juice, twenty one years
later, they have never had another asthma attack.
I will put BarleyLife™ or JustCarrots in my water bottle and take it with
me as I run my errands. Now with the new packets of BarleyLife™ we can
just open and add to the water bottle. No mess.
