Health Care

Did You Know That:

* 75% of all visits to a physician are stress-related . Unmanaged stress can lead to death... so it is of utmost importance that we become skilled in handling stress correctly;

* anger, resentment, unforgiveness, and a desire for revenge all trigger the classic "alarm triad" response to stress , which involves adrenal gland hypertrophy (swelling), thymus and lymph gland atrophy (shrinkage), which indicates the suppression of the immune system, and gastric inflammation;

* laughter, happiness, and joy are perfect antidotes for stress. A noted doctor once said that the diaphragm, thorax, abdomen, heart, lungs - and even the liver - are given a massage during a hearty laugh... no wonder the Bible says: "A merry heart does good, like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones." (Prov.17:22);

* studies are popping up promoting the power of prayer in staying healthy and becoming healthy. Hospitals across the US have bolstered their "prayer therapy" for the sick and recovering ;

* the average person feels much better and lives healthier by observing a one-day cleansing fast each week . History has proven that the body can heal itself from many serious conditions by fasting;

* leafy green vegetables are some of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet , including many nutrients not found in any other foods. Unfortunately conventionally grown greens have been sprayed with too many herbicides and pesticides to provide good nutrition. Buy organic greens or supplement with certified organic In-Liven Probiotic green superfood that contains also 13 different bacteria for a healthy colon;

* lacto-fermented beverages are the most healthful beverages available , supplying our bodies with beneficial probiotics, enzymes, rapid hydration and enhanced digestion. They promote our overall well-being and stamina. Some typical fermented beverages include kefir, grape cooler, natural ginger ale, kombucha, kvass. Or You can add 1 teaspoonful of ONE Group's Fast Track to a glass of juice and get all the same benefits;

* honey (unheated and unrefined) is one of the most powerful healing foods we have to our disposal. Generations of grandmothers prepared hot honey drinks to soothe sore throats, calm frayed nerves, and ensure a good night's sleep. Asthmatics often swear by honey's ability to help them breathe easier. Honey wipes out bacteria that cause diarrhea. Honey may eliminate such disease causing bacteria as salmonella, Shigella, E.coli, and cholera;

* high omega-3 eggs are nature's nearly perfect food . Eggs contain all known nutrients except for vitamin C. Despite the unfounded cholesterol scare of the last 15 years, eggs can be a healthy addition to anyone's diet; they can actually help reduce the risk of both heart disease and cancer;

* berries , such as blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, and raspberries are super-foods, containing some of the highest levels of antioxidants known to man... helping to reverse some of the effects of aging ;

* fruit should always be eaten before meals and not after meals... for eaten before other foods, fruit helps to cleanse the colon;

* drinking water during meals may leave You feeling bloated. Water should be drank before meals . This way You will not overeat either;

* current estimates suggest that women are gaining weight to the tune of 450g and men 225g each year despite the many diets they undertake. New studies indicate that the weight gain is due to the large amount of synthetic substances found in our food, home-care and personal-care products. Our own natural weight-control system is being poisoned by the toxic chemicals that we encounter in our everyday lives – this damage makes it increasingly difficult for our bodies to control their own weight, so we end up getting fatter even if we eat less food;

* toxic synthetic chemicals are highly fat soluble and when we are exposed to them the body creates fat to safely store those toxins it cannot process and eliminate safely;

* 60-70% of all personal-care products are absorbed through our skin into our bodies ... so for good health it is very important to choose personal-care products that are as free from synthetic substances as possible.

...in conclusion, lets promote our overall health by laughing more, taking the quiet time to pray and eating healthy! ...and lets not forget to exercise regularly... and enjoy the people in our lives.

Some Possible Causes Might Be

1. Poor dietary habits which create a toxic build-up in the body.
2. A lack of proper nutrients.
3. Weakness in the immune system.
4. Emotional problems which suppress the body’s defense.
5. Over use of antibiotics.
6. Viruses - Bacteria.

EFFECTIVE NATURAL SOLUTIONS

When First Symptoms Appear

1. Vitamins - Immediately take plenty of vitamin C. You can take about a total of 3000 mg a day in small doses – say 200 mg at a time, which would mean 15 tablets a day.

Zinc is also a good immune enhancer. From 20 to 40 mg of Zinc can be taken daily until the cold subsides.

It is better to take both of these in tablet form so that you can suck on them and dissolve them in the mouth. In this way, the active power of these two substances can be absorbed by the cells of the mouth and throat area and thus strengthening the power of the cells to protect themselves.

2. Immediately cleanse the nostrils and gargle with salt. If the cold continues after the first day, then discontinue the washing of the nostrils but continue 3 or more times a day gargling with salt or lemon water.

3. Avoid eating solid food, especially cheese, milk and all dairy products, as well as white flour, white sugar and any products made from them. They form excess mucus, which increases the symptoms of the cold.

4. Drink plenty of liquids especially fresh citric fruit juices: oranges, lemons, grapefruits, as well as herb teas, and vegetable broth.

5. If you feel very hungry and must eat, then the best food would be a raw salad or a hot, spicy soup. A very effective soup is onion soup made from onions, garlic, cayenne pepper, cinnamon and other spices. (Not if you have ulcers.)

6. For those who are familiar with stomach cleansing with slightly saltly water, this is very effective for removing accumulated mucus from the body. (Not if you have an ulcer).

7. An enema is also effective in helping the body purify itself of accumulated toxins.

8. Get plenty of rest and do plenty of deep relaxation. Also perform any exercises you feel up to doing. They will facilitate the renewal of the body’s vital energies and thus its ability to heal itself.

9. Keep your body warm and protected from drafts.

10. Shiatsu massage of the neck and head can be miraculously relieving and beneficial. (Reflexology can be used to free up the sinuses).

IF THE COLD CONTINUES

11. Continue with the vitamins taking up to 3000 mg of C. and up to 30 mg of Zinc per day until the symptoms disappear. If the cold lasts more than a week, then you might want to check with a doctor as to why your body is not healing itself.

Other antioxidants such as vitamins E, A and Selenium and various enzymes such as Super Dioxide Dismutase call also be very useful.

12. Continue to avoid solid food as much as possible. Drink plenty of juices and broths. If you feel very hungry, eat raw salad or hot spicy soup.

13. Take occasional hot baths (covering yourself well afterwards).

14. Slow deep breathing will re-energize your body. Breathe as slowly as you can, letting as little air as possible pass through the nostrils. Gradually they will open up.

15. Do not continue with the cleaning of the nostrils, but do continue with frequent gargling.

16. Gentle exercises can open up the nostrils and also the flow of energy in the body.

17. Use deep relaxation to imagine the body’s defense system healthy and powerful and invincible.

18. Be happy and relaxed.
