Just a few more things to do, and we will be going strong!

What Modern Science Says About Reversing The Aging Process

There’s an old proverb that rings with wit and reason: “Everyone wants to go to heaven but no one wants to die.” So why do we want to live forever? According to Dr. Sanjay Gupta, author of “Chasing Life” and CNN’s Senior Medical Corespondent, we do not.

The real quest isn’t eternal life on earth according to Gupta, but rather an exceptional life.

While interviewing the foremost authorities on anti-aging and life extension, Dr. Gupta discovered three “universals” — three principles that each researcher deemed critical to extending our lives naturally and empowering us to live exceptionally. They are:

1. Weight training
2. Good nutrition
3. Positive thinking and having purpose

Jon Benson, author of “Fit Over 40″, explores each of these in great detail, as well as asking 52 men and women how they have managed to slow the hands of time down to a crawl. Benson does not waste time with hype and hypothesis. He focuses on real-world examples and applications we can all use to slow down the aging process and help prevent and reverse the conditions that can lead to disease.

Who knows we need all the help we can get!

Well, how was your day?

I just came from my amazing chiropractor. I have been to a lot of them, and some of them are worlds apart in a better way than others. Have you experienced that?

Well, I have had difficulties losing weight, due in part to a sluggish thyroid. Lately, I have really been craving chocolate. I have always enjoyed chocolate, but never minded not having it on a regular basis. Now, I want it all day, every day! So, what gives?

Turns out my body is trying to tell me something. My thyroid is having trouble keeping up and my body is turning to a compound in chocolate to keep up. Well, the chiropractor told me of a super simple 30-second exercise to strengthen my thyroid.

He told me to take my two index fingers and apply deep pressure to the areas just below my nose, to the outside edge of my nostrils. I am to hold the pressure for a 30-count, 2 times a day, and get re-evaluated in a couple of months.

It is amazing to me how wonderfully our body is put together and the easy things we can do to support our health! But, I am not surprised, really. We have a fantastic Creator!

So, once again, I am not offering, and never will offer, health advice to you. I am not a doctor. But, I can tell you what I am doing, and what works for me!

Robin

–Who has to take 30 seconds to work those pressure points!

Have you tried a diet plan that required you to make major changes in your eating habits?

Perhaps there was reduced quantity intake, perhaps a complete menu makeover, perhaps food group restrictions? There are multiplied hundreds of diet and weight loss plans, schemes, and programs, valid and invalid, out in diet land. How have you tried to manage your diet and weight loss attempts?

Have you ever tried a diet plan that offered a gradual lifestyle change instead of going “cold turkey?” Have you tried a transition diet plan for weight loss?

—Who replaces HYPE with HOPE! Yes, there IS hope for you!

Food is Good Medicine!

For three years, I have suffered from bronchitis about this time of year. Last year it turned into pneumonia and I thought I was going to die! Those bouts came on and I would end up at the medical doctor’s office to try to get some relief.

That totally went against my grain, as I believe that doctors are great for things like car wrecks and broken bones, but not for allergies, viruses, bacterial infections, and the like.

It occurred to me one day, that Jesus said in His Word, “ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” John 14:12 KJV

Well, in relation to healing, He NEVER ONCE healed with drugs, or surgery. So, I do not believe that drugs and surgery are the answer. I believe drugs are toxic, and dangerous, and not the best answer. That is simply what the medical doctors have been trained in. That does not mean they are the best answer, or the only answer.

People often turn to medicinal drugs in the hope and expectation of immediate relief from painful symptoms. Sometimes the symptoms are so uncomfortable that we “just have to have” instant relief.

If we have been careful and diligent in caring for what we have put in our bodies, we are less likely to have “dis-ease.” But what if we have not been kind to our bodies? What if we have let our immune system get run down? Is there any hope for those of us who want to find natural cures, and yet still need immediate relief?

The good news is that sometimes there is!

This year, our 12-year-old daughter developed a sore throat that went down into her chest. Now, every good mother wants to take away the pain from her child. So, what was I to do? Well, the solution was right in our cupboards! And no, it was NOT in the form of the remainder of an old prescription! Ha! How many of YOU have been THERE?

Would you like to know an easy remedy for sore throats? For bronchitis? For a cold?

(Now, you may be among those who believe that “the cold IS the cure.” That is why no one has found a cure for it! But, that is fodder for another article).

Would you like to save money? Would you like to save a trip to town to see the doctor? Would you like to have more power, more control, over your health and the health of your family members? Would you like a natural cure? Would you like a cure that did not even taste too bad?

You are no dummy, of course you would!

Here is what worked for my daughter. The results were amazing. She had been sick for 3 days before we started her on this remedy. We started her on it the third evening. The next day she was noticeably better, and the next day, she was completely better. It also worked for the children of a friend of mine, who became similarly ill about the same time. And, it worked wonders for me, as well. My sore throat developed into bronchitis and I was miserable. After two days on the following remedy, I am very much better. I am no longer concerned that my bronchitis may turn into pneumonia! Now, THAT is a blessing!

Fill a glass with about 4 to 6 ounces of warm water. Put about a teaspoon or so of raw honey in, and stir gently to mix. Then, add a few drops of Tabasco sauce, or other hot sauce, or a dash of red pepper. All ingredients are to taste. Use as much hot sauce as you can comfortably stand. Several times throughout the day, sip or gargle the mixture. Make fresh batches as necessary.

We also made sure to get plenty of rest and drank water, to assist our bodies in overcoming the illness.

As a side note, my husband did not get the sore throat. He almost never gets sick. He does, however, eat garlic and hot peppers on a regular basis, as well as raw honey. So, this remedy can be both a preventative, and a curative one.

Please note that I am not a doctor. You are responsible for your own actions and for whatever action you chose to make based on this information.

Have you had similar experiences with “home remedies?” I would love to hear your comments! See you in the forum!

—who is not a doctor, but knows the Great Physician!

Dear Reader,

Are you like me and have a hard time with eating beans and grains, despite the fact they’re supposed to be ‘healthy’?

Do you gain fat when you eat even “non-refined” healthy carbs like brown rice?

I did — until recently.

Here is a super easy weight loss tip:

Soak all grains and legumes for 24 hours prior to cooking them.

Don’t worry — they taste the same. They’re even more fluffy. But, more important than that –

they are now “lectin-free”…or 90% there.

What are lectins?

Lectins are protein and protein-family substances that love to bind to stuff and mess with your body’s cellular structure.

The have a nasty habit of rendering even the most healthy of foods (almost always plant-based) very unhealthy for you to consume.

This does not have to be.

Simply soaking brown rice and legumes (beans) in water for 24 hours, according to food allergy researcher Dr. David Freed, causes the lectins in both foods to be destroyed 10 minutes into cooking.

This will not happen if you cook grains normally.

This is why you may be sniffling or having a hard time with “good carbs” in your diet. There are other reasons, but I’ve found this to be the ace in the hole.

Try it and see if your grains don’t go down better.

—Who highly recommends you consider these dietary changes for your dieting success!

One aspect of diet and weight loss that we cannot neglect to pay attention to relates to the quality and types of food that we put into our bodies to fuel them. We all know the computer lingo “GIGO.” Garbage in, garbage out. It only makes sense. You know that.

A person whose diet only, or mainly includes healthy food and drink choices, generally has a much higher quality of life than someone who eats junk food, or even so-called healthy foods from unsafe, or unsanitary sources.

Can we really trust the government to make wise food choices for us and for our families? You will have to decide that for yourself.

Personally, I believe that we each need to be vigilant in this very important area of nutrition as it relates to our health.

Dawn shares that belief with me. She is very informed, motivating, and resourceful. Because of her firm convictions and concerns, not only for her own family’s well-being, but for yours and mine as well, she operates a site to promote healthy eating for healthy living.

I highly recommend that you go there right now. Some of her information is freely available, the rest is available on this membership site. She offers a $1.00 trial period for 30 days. Personally, I think it is a wise investment for anyone who has any concerns at all, or any interest at all in our food quality.

This is just a short article, but well worth reading. Spend some time with Dawn. You will thank me for the lead! Check this site out and let me know what you think!

—Who shares your concerns!

By now you’ve probably heard about the Master Cleanse, and how it can cleanse and rejuvenate your body in 10 days.

The results people are getting with the Master Cleanse seem amazing, but there’s something about the Master Cleanse nobody is telling you.

It has nothing to do with the results you’ll get because you CAN see some really amazing things happen to your body in those 10 days you spend on the Master Cleanse.

————————————-
The Master Cleanse Is Not Easy
————————————-

With all the incredible benefits you get by doing the Master Cleanse people are overlooking that it’s kind of hard to stay on it for 10 days.

Even with the excitement of waking up and seeing your belt one notch tighter then the night before, or feeling light and energized all day, staying motivated for the whole 10 days can be hard.

That’s the bad news. The good news is there’s a book that makes the Master Cleanse a little easier.

That’s right, this book will make the 10 days you spend on the Master Cleanse “a little easier”. I wish there was a way to make the Master Cleanse super easy but that’s impossible.

But just by helping you deal with the hunger and some of the other roadblocks that pop up during the Master Cleanse this book has helped ordinary people who might not have lasted a day on the Master Cleanse make it through the entire 10 days.

You can find out more about this book by going to Master Cleanse Information

PS. I don’t know how long this will last, but right now when you pick up a copy of that Master Cleanse book you’ll also get a report called “Optimizing Your 4 Purification Systems” that can give you similar results to the Master Cleanse. And unlike the Master Cleanse “Optimizing Your 4 Purification Systems” is very easy for anyone to do.

When you go here  Master Cleanse Information  you’ll see the “Optimizing Your 4 Purification Systems” report towards the end of the page.
