Lupus, Cleansing, Super Shakes and Energy!

Chlorophyll, Colon/Cleansing, Healthy Solutions, Immune Tips, Success Stories, Super Foods, , , , , , , , , ,

 

Thank you to the 130 people who attended the NSP presentations by Julie De Visser, ND, – great participation from lively crowds that gave our guests a true Vancouver Island welcome!

 

Our group of practitioners work with Julie’s tips for both health and weight loss. They so closely resemble those from a 2012 article, which include the Four Pillars of Weight Loss and Insulin Resistance, (the key to preventing diabetes), that you may want to read it.
The Road the Wellness – The Four Pillars of Health is also the entire Chapter 6 in my book, The Paw Paw Program.

This is information that several people asked for, contact us if you need more details.

  • All the super foods used in the pre-presentation shakes are summarized; full fact sheets are available online. In my Paw Paw book, which is not just for cancer, but for Optimum Health, p. 203-204,  I have a general recipe for Super Shakes. In this I also mention adding greens, of any type as Julie mentioned. It’s quick and easy with GreenZone, especially in the winter. Check here for more Shake recipes. Here is a description of GreenZone and most of the Super Foods we used.
  • Arginine – 22 reasons for those who asked about it – we often put that in our shakes, too!
  • Remember monthly specials, in both Canada and US. If you are a member, specials are in addition to your member discount

 

Several people commented on the suggested intake of one gallon /4 litres of water per day. Remember that many of the nutritional beverages you sampled at the event can help to make up this amount: Chlorophyll, #1 health beverage since 1972, Zambroza,  Mineral Chi Tonic, Solstic Energy , Solstic Nutrition, and some others in the US ,  Green Tea, E-Tea (Essiac), Licorice.

We  encourage people to adjust this amount for  your weight, based on this formula:  # pounds divided by 2 = # of ounces. The adjust for level of activity, temperature, and diet. The bottom line is most people need more hydration!

Some people asked what the herbs that Julie De Visser used for her lupus healing. I have linked these to My NSP site, which gives a brief description of each formulation:
IF-C – InFlammation Chinese
Colostrum for balancing immune system
Lym – Max for cleansing lymphatic
Safflowers for uric acid removal (a US product) – KB-C can be used in place
and of course LOTS of
Chlorophyll to add nutrition and hydrate . This testimony just arrived via email:
“our fridge always contains the large NSP liquid Chlorophyll, and has for the past couple of years, my husband and both of my children all benefit from the extra greens, and the taste is minty and refreshing!” CJ

 

Some also asked about bowel cleansing – Our top selling Cleanse for about 20 years is the Tiao He Pak, which means Balance and Harmony, works on cleansing bowels, kidneys, lymphatics & cells. And this month it is on 10% or Buy 3 get one free – if you have some other family and friends ready to do their Spring Cleansing.10- 15 days depending on your constitution.
For a better understanding of Soy, please refer to my book and previous blogs on Phytohormones which Julie explained, and Soy Controversy, which is based on 30 years of study or research.

 

And to share one of several testimonies we heard about Solstic Energy: “My husband has replaced coffee with Solstic every morning for over a year and he is very pleased with the product evidenced by his continued use. It gives him a healthy energy boost in the morning that replaces caffeine and it tastes great! He gets the benefit of a boost of energy without the crash that often comes later in the day with coffee.

I use Solstic when I need an energy boost before a hike or a bike ride, or even after  Additionally, our fridge always contains the large NSP liquid Chlorophyll, and has for the past couple of years, my husband and both of my children all benefit from the extra greens, and the taste is minty and refreshing!” CJ

The professionals that write and record these courses all agree that there is ample proof indicating we need a wide range of vitamins, minerals, omega fatty acids, and anti-oxidants on a daily basis. Due to modern living, pollution and food sources it has become next to impossible to meet our needs with a healthy diet alone, and definitely not with the SAD = Standard American Diet.

Benoit Health Top Video Picks of the Month

 

I watch many (too many?) health related videos weekly. These are a couple that I recommend you take the time to view – short, informative, to the point and promote the same teaching as our office.

 

Gluten Sensitivity – Dr. Hyman has a good 7 minute videos on Utube : very informative, explains how and why gluten has a negative effect on many people. Not just those who have diagnosed celiac, but many chronic conditions such as  osteoporosis, arthrtitis, Mulitple Sclerosis, auto-immune conditions, plus mental conditions including depression and autism. The simple solution is to eliminate all gluten from your diet for 3 – 4 weeks, then introduce and pay attention. It is worthwhile looking at:

Food Matters: how to change our health – this is a 3 minute trailer for the movie Food Matters, which will greatly impact how and what you eat.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4DOQ6Xhqss

The Zyto Compass is helping many people to accurately choose supplements suited for their specific needs based on their current reading of 76 biomarkers. This company and the founder, Dr. Vaugn Cook,  also offers webinars to better understand this too. It has also helped others who are wanting to do business helping others find better health.

If you would like to know more about using this tool to help develop business, for the personal health care of your family, or to find someone in your part of the country who can offer you an assessment, please contact our office.

Success Stories

 

You Don’t have to Have Lupus or Be Diseased . Just Make a Decision Says Lynn

Ten years ago Lynn was diagnosed with Lupus and was given 2 years to live.

“My whole life ended and I went into a deep depression. I was hospitalized to a psych ward for a period of 3 months. I was totally overwhelmed and I broke down.” For years Lynn’s life was totally consumed by doctors. Visits to doctors’ offices were her entire social life.

“I was letting the doctors tell me what to do. I was living on borrowed time. All I did was make appointments with doctors and sit around in the waiting rooms to see doctors. I shaved my legs daily to see doctors. I was up to visiting 15 doctors a week. I was very timid and I was lost. I was bitter. Why is my life shutting down? ”

No one could give Lynn an answer. Then one day she made a decision – a decision that changed her life. Someone had told her about an expert herbalist and she decided to visit her for a consultation. The consultation discovered that Lynn was very deficient in many different minerals, enzymes , and essential fatty acids. On July 31/06 Lynn started on her new adventure.

“I decided I would do exactly what the herbal specialist said I should do. I taped the instructions to my fridge and I stuck to the program.

Every day Lynn took the following Nature’s Sunshine herbal program:

Chinese Mineral Chi Tonic 3 oz a day

1 Tbs. GreenZone Super Food

LIV-C 12 capsules a day

Super Oil 4 capsules a day

Colostrum 4 a day

No sugar, pop, wheat, yeast products. A diet of vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds, hormone free meat or poultry, eggs. Plenty of pure water for hydration and to help with flushing of toxins. Chlorophyll added for extra nutrition and alkalizing.

At the end of August/2006 Lynn visited her liver specialist who did a liver enzyme test for her. The results showed the liver enzymes to be down to normal for the first time in 10 years. The doctor couldn’t believe it and so he did another liver test just in case there was an error in the testing procedures. Once again the liver test showed the enzyme levels to be perfectly normal. All other blood tests showed everything to be in the normal range. The blood pressure came down from 180/110  to 127/85.  The doctor was absolutely amazed and told Lynn she wouldn’t have to see him for another 6 months. Lynn also weaned off 5 of her 7 medications- the anti malaria drugs, the blood pressure meds, the diuretics, the potassium and the arthritic pain drugs.

Today Lynn rarely has any pain. The cramps she would have in the liver and the ribs every time she ate have gone. Her leg cramps decreased dramatically. She rarely gets headaches any more and her sugar cravings are gone. The anxiety attacks, stress and depression are gone. Her sporadic menstrual cycle is normal now.

“I learned I had to speak for myself and do it myself. I was letting the doctors tell me what to do. I changed my eating habits. I changed my shopping habits from cookies and potato chips to fruits and vegetables. I get excited when I cook now. I discovered how my intestinal tract works. I feel younger today then I did 10 years ago.”  Lynn’s advice is to gain knowledge about yourself and to do it yourself.

How many quality years do you have left? What are you waiting for?

Spiritual, Emotional or Humour

 

Weight loss tip?    “When I buy cookies I eat just four and throw the rest away. But first I spray them with Raid so I won’t dig them out of the garbage later. Be careful, though, because Raid really doesn’t taste that bad.”                                                                                             – Janette Barber

Business Tips

More and more workers will continue to leave the work force and start their own part-time networking business. Why? They are bored or frustrated with their present jobs. Industry experts estimate that 40% of all sick days occur on Fridays and Mondays. This estimate confirms the workers’ desire to leave a boring workplace environment. If you like health, enjoy helping others, and are interested, contact us.

Please comment and  congratulations if you have read through to the end! You are a herbal warrior!!

Yours in health,
