Gall Bladder or Not? The Choice Is Yours - Ultimately it’s your health.

Published by bodymind under Health & Wellness, NSP

A lifetime isn’t nearly long enough to figure out what a lifetime is all about.

Gall Bladder

One ongoing trend in modern medicine is the emergency gall bladder removal. Plugged with stones, it begins to cause health problems, and instead of just removing the stones, the whole gall bladder is removed. Without the gall bladder the bile salts are not stored, and are just constantly released into the bowel. This irritates the small intestine when there isn’t any food in it. Without the gall bladder, a human can’t efficiently break fats down into the smallest molecules needed for proper utilization. Many times these fats are Essential Fatty Acids. A lack of EFAs is a growing health concern in the US and much of this can definitely be attributed to a weakened gall bladder. Improperly broken down fatty acids can also lead to diseases of the lymphatic system, since the lymphatic system is a carrier of fats.

Bile is also one of the most disregarded methods the body uses for toxin disposal. Honest health advisers know the amount of bile your body produces is directly related to the amount of toxins you can excrete, the key word here is can. One of the primary functions of bile is to break toxins down into smaller molecules, just as it does fats. The bile attaches itself to the toxins and carries it through the colon. Bile will also help cleanse the bowels of viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Bile also strengthens our normal bowel flora by keeping these invaders at bay.

When the body’s toxins are not excreted quickly, they cause inflammation, immune response, fat storage in the blood vessels and bile ducts of the liver. As bile production slows and the wrong cholesterol levels elevate, it leads to plaque filled arteries and veins. In turn, this leads to all sorts of disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, sleep apnea, hemorrhoids, varicose veins, psoriasis, and edema.

All toxic skin conditions may be traced to low bile production. How? The skin is the largest eliminative organ in the body, and when the lack of bile creates a condition in the bowel of the inability to breakdown and eliminate toxins, the skin is one of the eliminative organs that must overcome this condition. That pimple may be just a case of low bile salts. For many, it is as simple as supplementing bile salts to remedy a bad skin complexion.

When there is a viral or bacterial infection within the body, and as the body fights and kills these invaders, the dead remnants of the infection are processed by the liver and dumped in the bowels. These toxins, known as endotoxins, are some of the most deadly toxic substances there is. Until the liver cleans the blood of the endotoxins, these remnants cause inflammation and cellular degradation. Severe inflammation overwhelms the body, and soft tissues and organs are destroyed. Blood thickens to the point it coagulates right in the veins. A Hungarian research scientist found bile salts split the endotoxins into harmless fragments, and halted the cellular destruction.

Once a gall bladder has been removed the body cannot regulate proper bile flow until it grows back. When it does, it functions at a lower level than the gall bladder of birth. At any rate, the ability to store bile salts are reduced, and the bile is completely gone after the next meal, and none is left to eliminate toxins or fight pathogens.

The phyto-estrogens so common today from our plastic society are causing a hormone nightmare with women. Instead of using synthetic hormones to attempt to adjust the hot flashes, migraines, weight control, water retention, etc. doesn’t it just make more sense to just increase bile salts to destroy these plastic hormone mimics?

So what can I take to increase bile? Proactazyme and Food Enzymes are a direct replacement. Lecithin keeps bile thin, and reduces the need for bile by duplicating several things bile does. Milk Thistle and Dandelion combinations increase bile production naturally. Gall Bladder Formula, Liver Cleanse Formula, Red Beet Root Formula, and Liver Balance all increase bile production.

A Portuguese research group found a way to mix oil, water, and simple sugars to form a “cooking fat” that acts the same way as transfats or saturated fats, the stuff that makes baked goods taste good. The big difference here is this process works with oils like olive, grape seed, and sunflower. Now to get food manufacturers interested in the process.

Erectile dysfunction is a good indicator of heart disease or stroke because both conditions occur when certain arteries fail to expand fully in response to being stimulated. Because the arteries in the penis are smaller than those in the heart, for instance, the erectile dysfunction might show up sooner.

Men embarrassed to talk to their health advisers need to get over it, quickly. The risk of developing heart disease occurs with erectile dysfunction, perhaps much sooner.

Research has looked at whether drugs used to treat erectile dysfunction might protect against cardiac problems in patients with vascular disorders. No such luck. Although some improvement was shown, most men still developed heart disease. If you are suffering from ED, see your health adviser about it.

The body works only for immediate survival, not toward long-term health. Mankind has a survival instinct that has served him well. In order to withstand threatened attacks, real or imagined, the body goes defense physiology. You may not be consciously aware that your body is responding to events of the past, but these buried memories of a defensive state may keep your body in a defense physiology without you knowing it. In time, you will begin to experience pain and develop symptoms of disease, all be­cause your memory patterns are keeping your body in a tensed survival mode rather than allowing it to respond to the stimuli of the moment. Your body is in a defensive state and accumulating more acid than it can handle. Thoughts exert the most power­ful influence on your health, and negative thoughts are the number one acid pro­ducer in your body. Stress in the form of negative thoughts has health damaging consequences.

I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn’t, than live my life as if there isn’t, and die to find out there is.

How to cleanse the liver with Natures Sunshine Products

Published by bodymind under Health & Wellness, NSP

If you have been following my newsletters, you know that I’m constantly supporting my body by cleansing.  I’ve done digestive cleanses, liver cleanses, gall bladder cleanses, kidney cleanses, lymph cleanses, and almost every other cleanse I can do.   And you also know that I’ve played with many different cleanses for each.  I do this for various reasons.  First, so that I can have and speak from a first hand experience.  Second, to test out different products and see which one works best for my body.    Remember that what I share with you here is my experience and should be taken as such.  Make sure you check with the appropriate health professional before you chose to follow what I do.

All that being said, here is a liver cleanse my father has done several times and I am about to embark in myself.  He has had tremendous results , and at 74 years of age sometimes I wonder if he has more energy than I do at a young 39.  He has attributed much of his healthy living to keeping his liver healthy, and he seems to be doing great.  So here is the routine:

  • Get 3 Natures Sunshines Liver Cleanse
  • On the first day take one capsule on that day.
  • On the second day take two capsules
  • On the third day take three capsules  (get the idea?)
  • On the 18th day I take 18 capsules throughout the day (I divided up throughout the day)
  • On the 19th day, I start going back down, meaning I do 17 capsules on that day.
  • On the next day I do 16 capsules.
  • On the next day I do 15 capsules.
  • …. I keep going until I get back to zero.
  • That’s it.

It is noteworthy to state that I generally will do a liver cleanse after I’ve done a digestive cleanse.  The reason I do this is to clear the path where many of the toxins will use to be dumped.  Otherwise, I may be sending toxins into an already clogged up area, and I don’t personally think it is a good idea to do that.  The digestive cleanses I like are CleanStart, or Liquid Cleanse.

Enjoy and I trust this will support you in maintaining a healthy lifestyle.  If you feel so inclined to do this yourself, and wish to share the comments of your experience, please feel free to do so below.

A piece of the sky and a chunk of the earth lie in the heart of every human being.

Published by bodymind under Health & Wellness, NSP

A piece of the sky and a chunk of the earth

lie in the heart of every human being.

–Thomas Moore

I have had several people ask what alpha lipoic acid is, here’s a brief explanation. Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) enhances the effects of other antioxidants; it supports energy production at the cellular level, and assists in keeping blood sugar levels within the normal range. It also protects the liver, aids the cardiovascular system by slowing the formation of clots, and supports nerve cell health and repair.

Alpha Lipoic Acid is often called the universal antioxidant. It has both fat and water soluble properties. ALA can cross any membrane in the body, including the blood brain barrier. Alpha lipoic acid can protect the integrity of the cell membrane as well as offset cell stress. ALA also promotes mitochondria activity to help keep your body and its tissues vibrant. It also enhances the efforts of other antioxidants by making their requirement go down. ALA helps support the body’s natural removal of toxins, thus aiding the liver. In addition to its antioxidant properties, alpha lipoic acid directs calories away from fat production and toward energy production; many nutritionists use it as a weight loss supplement. ALA supports maintaining normal blood sugar levels and assists the nervous system by protecting the myelin sheath.

NSP’s newest supplement is a wonder for the circulatory system. RG-Max helps maintain healthy circulation. It promotes stamina during exercise. It protects against premature cardiovascular aging and provides powerful antioxidant benefits particularly to the cardiovascular system. RG-Max supports heart function and the amino acid profile it contains positively impacts blood lipid profiles. All the amino acids it contains support the heart and skeletal muscles. All this, and it is still a low glycemic drink because of the benefits of xylitol.

What RG-Max is, is an amino acid drink mix. Its design was to help support heart function and blood vessel flexibility. RG-Max contains 10 different amino acids, which are used by the body to help repair and build muscles, including the heart muscle, or if you’re a bodybuilder, bigger muscles everywhere. Improved circulation helps support increased energy and stamina levels. RG-Max’s amino acid profile supports male sexual function, mostly because of the high content of l-arginine.

Red grape extract in RG-Max also provides powerful antioxidant benefits that directly helps protect the circulatory system. The all-natural xylitol makes RG-Max taste agreeable, without the harmful effects of sugar. Most amino acid drinks remind the palate you’re stealing gas from the local constable. RG Max contains xylitol, l-arginine, citric acid, a natural strawberry flavoring, natural lemon juice, malic acid, silicon dioxide, red grape skin extract, taurine, l-isoleucine, l-leucine, l-methionine, l-tyrosine, l-threonine, N-acetyl-l-cysteine, l-glutamine, and l-carnitine.

As an added note, I had referral from a person who experiences angina, and the RA-Max stopped the angina, completely. If you experience angina, see a doctor, quick, but taking RG-Max for the problem will only help.

The most common bowel problem seen in Americans today as referred to in Traditional Chinese Medicine is the symptoms of spleen chi deficiency.

These signs are general weakness, weak quadriceps, lethargy, pale appearance or red face, shallow breathing, low or soft voice, little desire to speak, poor or voracious appetite, prolonged headaches, fatigue, loose stools, stools with a small diameter, sudden dizziness, tired eyes, dislike of cold foods, dislike of greasy foods, dislike of raw foods, sleepy after eating, abdominal discomfort that feels better when pressure is applied, and headache after exertion. Symptoms are worse in the morning. Indigestion, bloating, and gas, weak limbs, deep red or pale tongue, coated tongue in the morning, swollen abdominal sides, prone to ulcers, and anemia also may be a spleen chi deficiency.

The foods to support the spleen chi deficiency are apricots, dates, figs, low-fat well-done beef, root vegetables, warm foods, soups, and heating spices such as red pepper, ginger, and cumin.

The herbal formulas are Chinese Spleen Activator and Chinese Anti Gas. CLT-X and Intestinal Soothe & Build also support the spleen, but not near what the Chinese formulas do. Food Enzymes are a must for a weakened spleen condition. Proactazyme are bedtime can be a benefit.

There are two current thoughts on the cause of disease, Earth Theory and Germ Theory. The Germ theory states we become ill due to any invading organism, virus, bacteria, or fungus. The medical field accepts this theory and attempts to use drugs, vaccines, antibiotics, surgery, radiation, and disease killing chemicals to control the disease. History has shown little success in their attempts using these methods.

The Earth theory states we become ill by the way we live, the way we think, and the way we accept our environment. Earth theory uses lifestyle changes, herbs, vitamins, minerals, and any alternative health practice that is considered ancient and backwards by the educated medical field.

Surprise, they are both correct. It is the lifestyle we choose that allows pathogens to enter our lives, but pathogens, as in Germ Theory, it is. One can choose the allopathic approach, or the natural approach, and the intelligent choose both. That’s the best of both worlds in this case; we need allopathic medicine as much as the world needs alternative medicine. What needs to come to the thought of all healers is the necessity to work together.

Tom, Bill, Barry, Cy, Monty, Milt, Richard, Don, Bert, and I were all asked why our pickups never get stolen even though we never lock them; easy farm n’ ranch trucks never get stolen, because …. #1 they only go about 30 miles before they’re out of gas, #2 only we know how to operate the doors, #3 it’s hard to drive fast with a cab full of tools, ropes, chains, binders, buckets, etc, #4 the smoke coming up through the rusted floorboards hinders vision, #5 the dogs in the cab are grouchy, #6 their description makes them easy to identify, driver side door is green, passenger side door is red, etc, #7 the manure smell can be hard to tolerate, #8 top speed is 39 miles an hour, downhill, with a tailwind, #9 nobody wants a truck that needs more repairs than total value, AND #10 it’s hard to commit a crime with everyone waving at you.

Are you too acidic? Here are your tips for how to alkalize your body.

Published by bodymind under Health & Wellness, NSP

“You can trace every sickness … and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”
-Dr. Linus Pauling, two-time Nobel Prize winner

Whether the quote above is true or not, I know that I’ve personally experienced a much happier, healthier, and energized life when I choose to conciously create an alkaline environement. I have read much, and learned the theory much of the effects of an acidic body environment. Here is a short & quick list of what scientific studies have shown when you have an acidic environment…

  • pH-ReportIn your arteries - eats away at the linings and gives plaque a foothold.
  • In your joints- erodes vital cartilage and leaves joints painfully inflamed.
  • In skin cells - causes premature wrinkling, dry, brittle nails and dull and lifeless hair!
  • Wears down muscle mass - and causes premature aging.
  • In your bloodstream - kills your body’s defenses - leaving you with a compromised immune system, vulnerable to infection.
  • Attacks your lungs, liver, pancreas and every other vital organ in your body, aging them before their time and leaving you vulnerable to a major health nightmare down the road.
  • In your body tissues - drains the calcium in your bones - and causes crippling osteoporosis.
  • Slows Human Growth Hormone secretion… zaps your sex drive… and makes it difficult to get a restful night’s sleep.
  • Damages delicate enzymes that are essential for fighting germs… properly digesting foods… and even breathing

What does this all mean? Create an improved body chemistry/environment, improve or maybe even reverse many of the health problems your body may experience.

Below is a more in depth report on the effects of acidity and alkalinity of the body. I particularly encourage you to take a look at the Mineral chart on page 7, to see how acidity affects the body’s ability to get its nutrients and minerals. If that doesn’t motivate you enough, want to lose fat? An alkaline environment helps….An acidic environment doesn’t. Come on…take a step, don’t put your health last. Put it first…if you don’t take care of your health, who will?

Take a moment and make the decision to empower yourself to have a healthy lifestyle. Consider this your Success Coaching for today, so that you can enjoy more of your life with energy, vitality, and excitement.

Super Nutrition, Super Easy, and Dr. Oz says…

Published by bodymind under Health & Wellness, NSP

If you don’t have time to read this entire article I encourage you to at least glance through the summary of the main topics covered, and click on some of the options provided to continue improving your health.

Dr. Oz spent quite a bit of time with Oprah to share valuable resources and information on simple steps you can take to improve your health. Part of his focus was on three big topics: The importance of a good multivitamin, the value of good oils (Omegas), and the all important antioxidants. Throughout the article he offers various options on how to get all of these. However, if you are not getting all that you need through your nutrition, there is a simple super nutrition pack called SuperTrio that has all of what Dr. Oz is referencing. Just click on any of the links in the article to learn more about each of the resources available to you.

Here is some what Dr. Oz had to say:

On Dr. Oz’s list is the all-important multivitamin. Dr. Oz says this vitamin should be cut in half so you have two doses. “If you divide the vitamin in half, then you stabilize your dose during the day. Take half in the morning, half in the evening.”

Dr. Oz says taking a full multivitamin in one dose is like over-filling your tank. “You want to give your body the right amount of fuel for when you need it. Vitamins have water soluble elements to them so they are quickly moved through your system.”

When taking your daily vitamins, Dr. Oz says to make sure to get plenty of fluids. “Wash them down…” he says. “If you don’t like taking the pills, you can get liquid vitamins. They work as well. Find something that agrees with you that you can automatically make part of everyday life for you.”

An option would be SuperTrio which already has the preset amounts in a ready to go baggie. If you prefer liquid, you can use VitaWave.

Dr-Oz-OmegasAnother way to stay young that has gotten plenty of media attention lately is omega-3 fatty acids. If you’re relying on flax seed for your omega-3s, Dr. Oz says you most likely need to roast or grind the seeds to release the oils. If you just eat them, you’d need to really chew them with your teeth, which is difficult to do. Other good sources include walnuts and hemp seeds.

One of the most widely reported sources of omega-3s is salmon. But recently many concerns have been raised about eating salmon-whether the fish is wild or farm-raised, worries about global sustainability, over fishing and rising mercury levels. The best way to get around these issues, Dr. Oz says, is to get to the source and eat what the salmon eat-spirulina algae, which has valuable DHA omega-3s. “We can avoid the issues of sustainability because we can get a ton of it,” he says. “You can grow algae pretty easily, and it’s a much more efficient way of getting it.”

If you have a busy schedule, again SuperTrio may be an option for you.

“A crucial part of any well-rounded diet includes one or two tablespoons of olive oil a day in foods like salad dressing,” Dr. Oz says.

Another very important thing you need is plenty of foods rich in antioxidants.

But what are antioxidants? Why are they so good for anti-aging?

antioxidantsTo explain, Dr. Oz compares apples to apples-one half of this apple was sprinkled with lemon juice and the other was not. While the lemony half remains new and crisp-looking, the untreated half becomes brown and shriveled because of exposure to oxygen, also called oxidation. “The same thing happens to our skin, to our heart, to our eyes,” Dr. Oz says. “All of our bodies need to have the antioxidants.”

As their name implies, antioxidants do to your body what the lemon juice does to an apple-help prevent the damage caused by oxygen exposure.

While lemons do have some anti-aging benefits-similar to onions-Dr. Oz says there are several foods that are much more potent.

Dr. Oz says one of his favorite anti-aging foods are blueberries. You can tell blueberries are chockfull of antioxidants because of their dark color. “All foods with dark colors in them have some of these really protecting antioxidant chemicals in them,” he says. “Blueberries lead the charge.”

Other good anti-aging foods include sweet potatoes, broccoli and tomatoes. “[When eating] tomatoes, heat them up a little bit and put a little oil in them. It makes it easier to absorb the lycopene,” Dr. Oz says. “Lycopene is another antioxidant, but it has additional benefits as well, which are particularly valuable for the heart.”

While he’s mentioned many of these antioxidant-rich foods before, Dr. Oz is ready to introduce a new entry to his hall of fame-the acai (pronounced “AH-sigh-EE”), a small fruit from South American rainforests that is often found in the United States in juice. “It has twice the antioxidant content as a blueberry, so it’s a wonderful alternative,” Dr. Oz says. “Look at the food label and make sure they don’t have too many carbohydrates in there. It’s available in all major stores now. It’s just sort of breaking through.”

Dr. Oz says you should eat about five servings of antioxidant-rich foods a day.

While Americans’ number one source of antioxidants is from coffee, Dr. Oz says there are better hot beverages out there, like green tea.

Another great tea option is white tea. “It’s not new-it’s very old-and [has] been used for centuries for healing purposes.”

White tea is from the same plant as green tea, but it’s produced in a different way. While green tea is made of leaves dried to the point where the tea will be dark in color, white tea is made from an immature plant bud that isn’t dried at all. Instead of steeping the leaves, white tea is steamed. Dr. Oz says the potential for medicinal benefits of white tea-beyond a very small amount of caffeine as compared with other kinds of tea and coffee-comes from this lack of drying.

Dr. Oz says you should drink about four cups of green or white tea a day.

One of the most talked about pieces of dietary news to arise in recent years is that red wine is good for your health. Dr. Oz says part of the reason is the alcohol and part is resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant that comes from the skins of grapes. Vintners add the grape skins back to make red wine, but they don’t do the same process for white wine-so white wine has no resveratrol benefit.

“Resveratrol does one other thing,” Dr. Oz says. “It turns on a system in your body that prevents your cells from aging. Now think about it. Where do they grow these grapes? On trees on hillsides, right? It’s not a very hospitable environment. So those grapes are sending a signal to us that life might not be so good, so why not turn on that cellular chemistry that you have that allows you to live longer and better? That’s why we think this has a benefit.”

If you don’t want the alcohol, Dr. Oz says you can get some resveratrol from Concord grape juice or other dark grape juices, but you won’t get as much benefit as you would from red wine. “Eighty percent of the benefit of the wine is actually the alcohol, and 20 percent is the resveratrol,” Dr. Oz says. “So it’s the combination that makes red wine so valuable.”

Of course, moderation is the key when drinking to your health. Dr. Oz says most people should drink about one glass of red wine a day, though some men can drink slightly more because males metabolize alcohol more effectively than females.

Did you know your spice rack is full of anti-aging secrets? Dr. Oz says research shows that cinnamon can decrease blood sugar levels and lower cholesterol, especially in people with type-2 diabetes.

Arthritis sufferers may also find relief in tumeric, a spice found in curry that has also been reported to help prevent Alzheimer’s disease, he says.

Paprika and cayenne pepper can help fight high blood pressure and improve circulation, he says.

In lab studies, Dr. Oz says, eating rosemary has been shown to improve learning rates in rats-data that has been reproduced in humans.

Even ginger can decrease blood pressure, alleviate arthritis pain and reduce your risk of cancer. One way to get your daily ginger is from Dr. Oz’s “green drink.” Get the recipe.

Though fresh spices usually are best, Dr. Oz says they can still fight super-trio aging if they’re dried.

I encourage you to take a look at what SuperTrio offers in each simple to carry pre-packaged little bag you can carry with you throughout the day.
