The Best Medication for Stress Relief is Vitamin C

2011-11-07T15:18:00.000-08:00

There are numerous strong procedures with regards to stress medication. It's all too easy to feel that you need to reach for the pharmaceutical cabinet when stress hits causing headaches as well as fatigue. In fact, the more effective stress relief methods stem from meditation, relaxation and social pursuits. That said, if you wish to enhance your efforts to reduce stress by using a supplement, there is one that does not require you to invest all your money on pricey drugs.

The best treatment to alleviate stress is Vitamin C.

Vitamin C decreases both the physical and the psychological effects bestowed on individuals once stress strikes. Those whom consume vitamin C regularly do not show signs of mental stress so easily if suffering from challenges daily. Additionally, those people find themselves able to endure any stressful experience more rapidly than people whom consume very little vitamin C.

Another scientific fact on Vitamin C's effect on stress is related to its effect on hormones. Stress produces a hormone called Cortisol released from our adrenal glands. This transmits the stressed side effects through the body; because the body and mind are in unison, soon the mind is impacted also. The hormone is triggered by a reaction to an event that can cause stress for example a sense of panic or hazard.

How will you be sure of your needed Vitamin C usage as part of your daily medication to relieve stress? Include these in your food intake:

1.Raw vegetables like broccoli, sprouts, tomatoes and parsley, spinach.
2.Fresh fruits such as strawberries, bananas, apples.
3.Red and Green peppers.
4.One glass of orange juice along with breakfast.
5.Raw fish meals.
6.Almonds and walnuts.
7.Whole wheat.

It is not necessary for you to have a prescription to get your hands on vitamin C. If stress is impacting you adversely, I would advise consulting a doctor. Though, here are some ways to take in the vital body requirements. Vitamin C has been proven to be useful at combating stress disorders. It has latent benefits too like preventing colds. It's also been rumored to help fight cancer.

There are various herbal remedies available that you may ask your physician about however Vitamin C remains the finest medication to relieve stress. It's important to recognize the early phases of stress so that you tackle it before it commences to deteriorate your health. Recognize very rapidly signs of depression and anxiety. Trust me, these issues can escalate into serious mental health problems. Don't be susceptible to it, make certain you take care of your body and mind.

If you are Sick of being Tired & Tired of being Sick read on.

According to Nobel Prize Winner Otto Warburg, de-generative diseases (attributed to aging all along), such as: Cancer, Osteoporosis, Heart disease, and other ailments such as Allergies, Kidney Stones and Gallstones have all been scientifically linked to acid! Acidosis (overly acidic body) is the primary indicator of Calcium Deficiency Disease. Scientists have discovered that the body fluids of healthy people are alkaline (high pH) whereas the body fluids of sick people are acidic (low pH).

Supplements for Health & Wellness

2011-10-30T12:41:00.000-07:00

The foods that we eat in America are not providing the nutrition required for health and wellness. Many people try very hard to eat vegetables and fruits because they are supposed to be healthier. The problem with this strategy is the amount of pesticides that are used on crops.

Our bodies have become the filters for all of the toxins that are in our environment. Another problem with the food we eat today is the lack of minerals that are available in the soil.

While the nutrient density of harvested foods has declined significantly over the past 100 years, at the same time, food consumers are becoming increasingly interested in wellness and the prevention of disease.

Minerals assist the body in a multitude of biochemical processes. Minerals are inorganic compounds found in the soil. Foods grown in soil depleted of minerals do not contain the minerals needed to sustain human health.

The Nutrition Security Institute completed a study that proves as minerals go down, disease goes up. The changes in the rates of reported chronic diseases between 1980 and 1994 (per 100,000 members of the US population).

Heart Disease increased 18.67% with mineral deficiencies associated with the disease being chromium, copper, magnesium, potassium and selenium.

Chronic Bronchitis is associated with mineral deficiencies of copper, iodine, iron, magnesium, selenium and zinc with an increase of disease from 1980 to 1994 of 55.98%.

Tinnitus is up 24.98% and associated with mineral deficiencies of calcium, magnesium, and zinc.

Bone deformities are up 46.96% with mineral deficiencies of calcium, copper, fluoride and magnesium,

Asthma has the highest increase between 1980 and 1994 of 87.44% with the main deficiency being in magnesium.

Supplements, especially mineral are needed for health in this highly toxic world we live in today.

The Most Effective Free Alternative Acne Treatments

2008-10-24T04:44:00.000-07:00

If you can only do one thing for acne the most effective of the alternative acne treatments is staying fully hydrated. Your body requires approx. 66% it's own weight in ounces just to function properly. This means if you weight 200 lbs. you need to drink 132 ounces of water or a little over a gallon of good purified preferably re-structured water. When you sweat, exercise, live in a warm climate, etc.. you will need additional water. Many times a couple of quarts additional is needed before and after an exercise routine or sauna.

Dehydration is the strongest enemy of youth and health there is. Many people suffer from constipation which is normally caused by dehydration. When this happens the colon becomes congested and acne is a common result.

Stay Young, Healthy, Acne Free, Drink More Water!!

Colon Cleanse for Acne Treatment

2008-10-13T07:06:00.000-07:00

No one thinks a sewer is healthy. So why keep one inside you?
Now - Gently cleanse your colon in just 30 days.

Your body has to get rid of waste. It's literally a matter of life and death. Our environment - and, more importantly, our food - is riddled with toxic chemicals. A clean colon is critical to good health, and your colon must be clean to properly eliminate waste.

So - with all the toxins entering your body, what can you do to clean them out so they don't poison you? A great place to start is with a colon cleanse.

But - Why do you need a colon cleanse?

Part of the Why is From Our Diet.

The average American diet has too much fat - especially too much saturated fat -- and too many refined carbohydrates. That's a real problem, and I'm about to talk frankly and a little graphically about it.

The excess fat makes the feces stickier. After all, grease sticks to everything. It sticks to the paper and the bowl, and it's not hard to see that some of it is probably sticking inside you too.

Both the Johns Hopkins Colon Cancer Center and Mayo Clinic have clearly stated that increased saturated fat in the diet and decreased fiber increase the risk of colon cancer. A lot of that could be due to excess feces sticking to the wall of the colon.

Plus, excess refined carbohydrates make it even worse. You're familiar with pasta? Did you know the name was derived from the Italian word for paste? Now, paste is designed to stick to things. And - have you ever tried to chew an uncooked piece of pasta? Too hard to chew, isn't it? With these types of carbohydrates in the diet, some may not be fully digested and large proteins could be left behind to harden and stick to your colon wall.

Remember - no body process is perfect. If everything in the body went perfectly, we'd never get sick or grow old. It's easy to see that some waste may get left behind since it's sticker than what our body is designed to deal with. And, for good health, you need to get that cleared out.

Read on to Discover the Dangers of a Dirty Colon!

Leaving feces behind in the colon is bad for your Colon. It creates conditions that are bad for you, but good for bacteria. This can lead to major problems, and here's some evidence:

* " With prolonged contact, bacteria can get into the colon lining (Gastroenterology, Nov 1999)

* " Bacteria can cause inflammatory bowel conditions that may lead to cancer (Gastroenterology, Nov 1999, Applied and Environmental Microbiology, Sept 1995)

* " Inflammatory bowel diseases can predispose to bowel cancer (Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic)

Those are all things it would be best to avoid, and having a clean colon after using the Colon Cleanse Program promotes the good health you need to enjoy life on your terms.

Before I give you the details about the program, I want to introduce you to Jennifer. She had generally decent health - or so she thought. What really happened is that she was slowly growing more uncomfortable - and less healthy. She thought her increasing discomfort was a "normal" part of aging. She had more indigestion; she was up more at night; she had various pains and discomforts; she was just "getting old."

Jennifer found out she was wrong.

Here she is to tell you her story:

CASE STUDY

"I was generally feeling OK, just run down sometimes and occasionally getting backed up. Things weren't coming out the way they had been, and the way I thought they should. A friend suggested I use these colon cleanse products, and I didn't think they were for me at first. I mean, I didn't have a big problem. It was just trouble passing my stool now and then.

After a while, as things started to get a little bit worse, I was feeling worse and I asked my friend about the products she'd mentioned. I got some, and really didn't know what to expect. Not much happened the first day or two. I still kept feeling like I was a little backed up. After that, though, I noticed things started moving faster. I had to head for the bathroom more often, and it seemed like more was coming out than I was putting in!

I also noticed that feeling I used to have - where I didn't feel emptied out - had gone away too. Then, in another couple of days, I started sleeping better. That helped me have more energy so getting through my day was easier. And the funny thing is - the brown spots on my hands started to disappear. I thought they were age spots, but maybe they were brown for a different reason. Anyway, I'm glad I gave it a try. I feel better than I used to, and I think the cleanse helped me quite a bit."

Cleanse to Promote Good Health.

There's one primary reason to cleanse your colon: to be healthy. Remember those toxins I mentioned? They're all around you - in your air, food, and water. Getting the toxins out of your body promotes your health. That just makes sense. Poisons don't heal.

Despite that, there's a lot of controversy about colon cleansing. Many people think it's a good idea, but some don't. So - how do you know? Ultimately, you have to weigh the evidence and choose what's best for you. But here's some information to help you make that choice.

Some MD's say that these symptoms - headache, fatigue, loss of appetite, discomfort - are due to swelling in the colon, rather than waste building up. However, that information is based on studies done in 1919 and 1922. The American diet has changed drastically, and for the worse, since 1922. There's more current information available that might help you decide it's a good idea to cleanse your colon.

A medical journal, called Surgical Infections, reported a study in February 2007 about acute appendicitis, and how often feces is a factor. If you're counting, they reported 49%. But that's not the big news.

As a side note to their study, the surgeons reported seeing more feces in patient's colons than they expected. And, they added, it might be good to find out why. There are a number of reasons why, and I've told you some of them. Knowing those reasons makes it easy to see why you need the Life Force International Colon Cleanse Program.

Order Colon Cleanse Now

Here's How Our Colon Cleanse Helps:

It takes more than just one step, or one product, to correctly cleanse your colon. That's why the Life Force International Colon Cleanse Program uses three specially-blended products to gently cleanse over 30 days. This approach is much better for your body. After all, it took a lot more than 30 days to get to where you are now!

The three products are best used together, especially for a first cleanse. Each product has its specific role, so leaving one out will leave the job incomplete. This is one job you'll want to finish, so order the full Program to get the maximum benefit and achieve the results you want.

The Life Force International Colon Cleanse Program will:

* Break down hardened waste from intestinal walls with Herbal Tabs.

* Attract and hold toxins that have accumulated in your body with Activated Charcoal.

* Sweep the toxins, fat and cholesterol from your body with Intestinal Tone.

Formula 1: HERBAL TABS (Cleansing Agent)
This cleansing herbal formula stimulates the muscles in the colon, and strengthens them over time.

It improves digestion, relieves gas and cramps, and increases the flow of bile to clean the gall bladder, bile ducts and liver. It promotes healthy flora in your intestines, while destroying and getting rid of intestinal parasites. It's antibacterial, anti-viral and antifungal.

When used as suggested, the mild, natural, and non-habit forming phytonutrients (nutrients found in plants) break down hardened feces stuck to your colon walls and flush it out.

SUGGESTED USAGE

Start with one capsule of this formula during or just after dinner. This formula works best when taken with food. The next morning, you should notice an increase in your bowel action and in the amount of feces you pass. It should also be softer. If you notice little or no difference in your bowel movements by the next day, then increase your dosage that evening to 2 capsules.

Continue to increase your dosage every evening by one capsule until you notice a dramatic difference in the way your bowel works. Most people need 2-3 capsules, but a few have needed more than that. Your bowel movement and elimination should be your guide.

Continue to use this formula at the dose that works for you until you have one bowel movement each day for each meal you eat. Between 2 and 4 bowel movements a day is normal. This formula can be taken long term without worry about dependence.

Formula 2: ACTIVATED CHARCOAL (Detoxifying Agent)
This is a natural deodorant and disinfectant. Activated Charcoal is one of the finest absorptive agents known. These odorless and tasteless fine black granules extract and neutralize thousands of times their own weight in gases, heavy metals, toxins, poisons and other chemicals.

Made by heating coconut shells in the absence of air, partly-burned shells are granulated to a size that allows optimum absorption. This vegetable form of carbon is completely safe for human consumption.

Besides being helpful in providing relief from gas trapped in the lower intestine, charcoal is known as the universal antidote and is used in hospital emergency rooms to neutralize drugs and poisons. It makes a great addition to any family first aid kit.

SUGGESTED USAGE

Mix 1 teaspoon with 8 ounces of water (you may want to try adding it to yogurt) both morning and evening. A straw may help since it can settle in the bottom of the glass. Do not use with time-released medications.

Formula 3: INTESTINAL TONE (bulking agent)
Intestinal Tone is a natural blend of psyllium husks and psyllium seeds that provides the optimal mix of soluble and insoluble fibers. The soluble fiber from the husks helps absorb and eliminate cholesterol, fats and toxins that accumulate in the colon.

The insoluble fiber from the seeds provides the bulk needed to promote peristaltic action (get the intestinal muscles to squeeze) and eliminate waste, while allowing for improved nutrient absorption. Intestinal Tone contains no chemical stimulants, sugar, salt, preservatives or artificial flavors.

Today is the best day to start!

As you can see, there are many good reasons to use our Colon Cleanse Program. The American diet has changed for the worse since there are too many bad fats and refined carbohydrates. There are toxins all around in your air, water and food - and in your body.

Your body can't work properly with toxins in it, and you can't live the life you really want, and enjoy it with your family, unless you and your family are well.

Give your body the best chance you can to heal and stay healthy. That way, you'll be there for the people who want and need you to be here and healthy. Take care of your colon by cleansing it with our Colon Cleanse Program. Order the three part Program today - and with complete confidence.

If not, send it back and we'll refund your purchase price - less shipping charges. You can even return the empty bottles and still get a refund!

With a guarantee like that, the only way you can go wrong is to not order. So, by placing your order now, you'll get the clean colon you need to promote the health you and your family both want you to have. And remember, it's entirely risk-free.

Alternative Acne Treatments Work From the Inside Out

2008-09-23T03:49:00.000-07:00

Alternative acne treatments work because they go to the root cause of your acne problems.

When you begin to break out with pimples and acne, it is because your colon and intestines are becoming filled with toxins. One of the main ways your body leeches toxins and impurities from the body is through your skin, so if there are too many toxins in your colon and intestines they try to release these added toxins through the skin resulting in acne. That is why your best treatments for acne are usually some kind of natural remedy for acne.

By cleaning, detoxifying and repairing the colon and intestines you can rid yourself of acne and pimples for life plus using an acne cure with natural ways such as colon cleansers, vitamins, minerals and nutrients you can also help to prevent many colon related diseases such as cancer.

The best alternative acne treatments start with a colon cleanser. I prefer a mild oxygen cleanse to an herbal cleanse because they are milder on the colon. Drink organic, non processed, aloe vera juice and take a good seaweed supplement for optimum results.

These types of alternative acne treatments and acne remedy are the most effective of all acne home treatments I have researched and tested. Many people use a colon cleanser for other reasons and report one of the best side effects was the curing of their persistent acne problems.

What have you got to lose trying alternative acne treatments, other than your acne?

Your Skin is a Mirror of Your Intestines

2008-09-07T17:48:00.000-07:00

Have you tried everything to get rid of your pimples?

No matter what you eat, or how you clean your skin they are still there?

Many times this is a sign that the walls of your intestines are clogged.

One of the first things people notice when they try a mild oxygen intestinal cleanse, usually 4 to 6 capsules per day, is how quickly their skin clears up. Back and body acne also clear up.

I have seen this wonderful side effect when we are treating constipation using the oxygen cleanse.

Alternative Acne Treatments with the Galvanic Spa

2008-09-05T12:42:00.000-07:00

For many people acne causes problems beyond the pimples on their face. Acne can be devastating to people who are worried about the image they present to the world. It can also be painful to the touch and cause your skin to feel inflamed.

There is hope for people suffering from acne. The Galvanic Spa is the most effective topical acne treatment of all the alternative acne treatments I have tested. It can help to unclog your pores and remove redness and inflammation from your skin. In addition, it can actually make your skin have a healthy glow.

The Galvanic Spa uses galvanic currents to help liquefy the oil in your pores so that it can easily be removed. Once pores are free from backed up oil and dead skin cells, the infection will go away and your skin can heal.

I give free demonstrations in the Miami-West Palm Beach, Fl area. Set up an appointment today, email me at tested4you@gmail.com as soon as possible.

You will see the difference with the first treatment.

Why Raw Meat Should Be Used In the Best All Natural Dog Foods and Homemade Dog Food Recipe

2008-08-29T19:25:00.000-07:00

Dogs have not changed very much in the past couple of hundred years. It is their surroundings and environment that has changed the most, especially their dog foods. All natural dog foods a hundred years ago were the raw kitchen scraps and any table scraps that were left over. Many dogs also hunted their own food.

Wild Dogs and Why Raw Meats are Best for All Natural Dog Foods
Does your dog walk in circles to pack down the tall grass before sleeping even if there is no grass?

Have you noticed your dog’s sharp pointy teeth used for ripping meat? A dog’s neck muscles are still their strongest muscle for ripping and tearing the meat off their prey. Your dog will also eat his food as quickly as he can and protect it from other animals even if there are none.

Your dog’s sense of smell is 1000 times more powerful than a human’s sense of smell, which enables them to hunt.

Your dog’s digestive system has not changed since the wild; it is designed for high protein, fat and moisture meals. Your dogs jaws only go up and down to tear meat or swallow it whole, hence the saying “wolf your food down”, they do not move sideways like cows or horses that grind vegetation.

Warmth and Moisture in Your Homemade Dog Food Recipe for the Best All Natural Dog Foods
If you feed raw meat with normal fat content and hot purified water to make it moist and make it warm (since cold food shuts down the digestive system), you will be giving your dog the same all natural dog foods dogs have eaten since the beginning of time.

Meat should be fed raw because it also helps to stimulate the carnivore's highly acidic digestive system.

Bones should only be included if they are raw and fresh. Old or cooked bones become brittle and will splinter easily while fresh bones are still pliable.

Do you know of any animals that cook their food before they eat it?

All Natural Dog Foods Dogs Have Eaten for Centuries are Your Best Choice for Dog Foods
Since humans changed the way dogs have eaten since the beginning of time, dogs now get the same diseases humans have. The same diseases humans began to get after they began to eat so much processed food. Coincidence?

This alone should be enough to make us question the high grain content commercial dog foods available today and at least look for high quality all natural dog foods or use a good homemade dog food recipe so you will know exactly what is going into your dog. Your dog will Love you for it.

Use These Simple Guidelines To Choose The Best All Natural Dog Foods

2008-08-19T20:08:00.000-07:00

Because dog foods are bought by people, dog food suppliers market to the ideas dog owners have about their dogs likes. This explains why dog foods come in different shapes and colors, with or without gravy, dry or moist, etc. Dogs do not need any of these things for the best all natural dog foods. Isn’t it interesting that pet owners spend around $13 billion annually for pet food which the majority of these dog foods are not all natural dog foods that give your dog optimum health.

Consumers Digest reported several years ago, “Few foods are so liberally laced with artificial flavors as pet foods” they also quoted sources that basically said that the only way they can get pets to eat the poor quality food is by adding phony flavors.

Would you choose artificial, poor quality for ingredients in your dog foods or would you rather choose dog foods that are all natural dog foods for your dog?

A carnivore’s system is designed to eat raw meat, one animal at a time. Your dog should digest its meal and be eliminated before any putrefaction begins. A dog’s digestive system is highly acidic, or at least it should be. Only raw meat stimulates a highly acidic system that is designed to kill unfriendly bacteria.

You will find the best all natural dog foods consist of approximately 75% organic, all natural raw meat. This can consist of beef, whole chicken or turkey wings, necks and backs as long as they are raw and fresh. When bones are old or cooked they become brittle and splinter.

The best all natural dog foods are also around 25% vegetables. This does not mean give your dog a whole, raw carrot. In the wild your dog would get these vegetable requirements from the predigested vegetables in the animal’s stomach and intestines. You can add organic vegetables to your all natural dog foods by grating them, chopping finely (like what you would find in a rabbit’s stomach) or run through a blender, food chopper or food processor.

In the wild a dog would get the water they needed from their prey, so the all natural dog foods you give your dog should be the consistency of a thick stew. The moisture content of dog foods also has an effect on maintaining healthy kidneys and bladder in your dog. Many pet owners report their dog cutting down on water consumption when being fed these types of all natural dog foods.

Most of the minerals must come in the form of supplementation today. Calcium is very important in the best all natural dog foods. Bone meal is not an acceptable source of calcium for your all natural dog foods because bones store toxins and heavy metals like lead or even mad cow disease. The other reason is the calcium to phosphorous ratio. Pets need a 2:1 ratio between calcium and phosphorus. That is, for every 2 parts of calcium in the dog foods, there should be 1 part phosphorus. As an example, if the dog foods contains 2 grams of calcium, the dog foods should contain 1 gram of phosphorus. Meat is naturally low in calcium and high in phosphorus. Bone meal is not only a source of calcium, but bone meal is also a source of phosphorus, so using bone meal reverses the 2:1 ratio so that perhaps your dog's body has a 1:3 ratio or 1 part calcium to 3 parts phosphorus. This imbalance could cause your dog health problems.

Finely ground raw egg shells are the best choice for calcium supplementation in the best all natural dog foods. They contain virtually no phosphorus and are extremely high in calcium plus they are affordable and lightweight. The best all natural dog foods will use approximately 1 tsp. finely ground raw egg shells or about 8 large eggs for every pound of meat. Raw eggs are an excellent source of meat and affordable.

Digestive enzyme supplementation are also a good ingredient in the best all natural dog foods. The four most commonly used enzymes in the best all natural dog foods are amylase that helps with the digestion of carbohydrates, protease which helps with the digestion of protein, lipase that helps with the digestion of fats and cellulase for the digestion of vegetables.

Nutritive herbs provide a blend of vital nutrients that are essential in the best all natural dog foods. Alfalfa which is an Arabic word meaning “mother of all foods, dandelion leaf, nettle, and kelp are ingredients in the best all natural dog foods. These herbs can be found in various green food powder supplements from health food stores.

The combination of these herbs in the best all natural dog foods provide such nutrients as biotin, bioflavanoids, calcium, magnesium, folic acid, iodine, iron, potassium, linolenic acid, niacin, potash, sulfur, zinc, vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C and E. These herbs also aid in the assimilation of protein, fats and carbohydrates plus are an excellent blood purifier. They also aid the body to help detoxify the liver, clean the colon and keep the thyroid working.

Using these simple guidelines you can choose which are the best all natural dog foods to buy or how to make the best all natural dog foods available so your dog can enjoy optimum health.

How to Prevent the 8 Deadly Diseases of the Western World

2008-08-13T06:16:00.000-07:00

A warning is definitely needed for the Western world, particularly for people eating food out of grocery stores and restaurants. Know anyone like that?

Like the aristocrats of ancient Rome, many Americans are literally eating themselves to an early death. I feel that with a little bit of basic knowledge, supported by statistics and research from the cutting edge of health and science, people can take some simple steps and put the odds of living a longer healthier life back in their favor. There are 8 major diseases that have been sweeping the land since the 1940's. All of them were virtually unheard of at the turn of the 20th century.

I started to do some of my own research, because I am one of those 77 million baby boomers born between 1946 and 1964, that is quickly aging & I want to preserve my health as long as possible.

There is a lot of contradictory information available, which is why so many people are confused about what to do to maintain their health. I've heard people say things like: "there's so much contradiction out there, who knows what to believe anymore--I'll just eat what I want and take my chances".
