Do you want to be a pond or a river?

You probably know natural cleansing and detoxification is a normal internal body process.  It’s your built-in waste disposal and filtering system that has evolved over thousands of years to ensure your body eliminates waste that otherwise would build-up harmful toxicity levels.

What About That Processed Food?

In the 21st Century, few people manage to avoid processed foods, so the challenge in feeding the human body what it really needs lies in selection and moderation. It’s in choice.

If your food comes from a box, envelope, bag, can or fast-food restaurant, it’s processed and refined with significant levels of sodium, sugars, fats plus a generous mix of synthetic chemical compounds  to add color, flavour, consistency and of course preservatives.   Some more so than others, organics are better, do read the labels and try to ignore the hype & grand claims.

While they may fill you up in a hurry and even taste good (sodium, sugar, fat and synthetics do that), in your body, these ‘food’ products deliver few nutrients and cause much more waste which over time, results in your organs becoming increasingly weakened and sluggish

Most people consume 3 meals a day.  About 18-24 hours after each meal, it is normal to have a bowel movement and if you don’t, your body is accumulating waste and manufacturing harmful toxins. 

Like a stagnant pond, this cumulative effect means your body slowly loses its efficiently and the waste builds toxins which get deposited in your skin (accelerated aging), sub-skin (fat deposits) and organs (illness & disease).

We all get sick from time to time.

Is A Mysterious Symptom Or Unknown Sickness Troubling You

For some people it is frequent and for others the mysterious symptoms never seem to go away. Here is a new article…

Your good health is fragile but maintaining it does not have to be complicated.  Many people suffer from a mysterious illness or unknown sickness because they may not understand the impact their daily lifestyle choices are having on their body.

The Stress Of A Mysterious Symptom Or Unknown Sickness Can Be Overwhelming

It’s probably not you, yet many people do constantly feel poorly due to a mysterious symptom or some unknown sickness.  

Visits to the family doctor or waiting endless hours in crowded emergency rooms for a 3 minute assessment and prescription does not provide clear answers, or lasting solutions and too many people hold little hope of regaining their health and wellness.

Some give up and resign themselves to coping with the mysterious symptom or unknown sickness while others take complementary actions beyond western medicine to uncover the root cause of why it happened so they understand how to effectively address it naturally. 

Certainly a medical opinion is never to be ignored, but if that opinion fails to resolve a mysterious symptom or some unknown sickness, you should never ever give up, because symptoms are not normal at any age.

When You Understand Why, The How Becomes A Lot Easier

Estrogen Overload Dangers Every Woman Should Be Aware Of

So when you ask yourself, do I have symptoms of high estrogen or estrogen overload, the answer could very well be yes.

More than 50% of women over 35 years of age have symptoms of high estrogen overload and experience hormone imbalances that are often attributed to estrogen overload.  

Many women suffer in silence because they think that their misery is a normal part of their menstrual cycle or aging.

Xylitol Is Nature’s Own Sweeter

Most people have a “sweet tooth” and many love their chocolate.  Chocolate is more than a snack – it is an indulgence and a reward.  Used by the natives of ancient Mesoamerica, chocolate has been recognized for centuries for its ability to give energy, restore vitality and stimulate the pleasure centers in the brain.  

When adopting a healthier lifestyle, it usually means giving up both sugar and chocolate but this month we want to introduce you to a product that’s been around a long time, but it’s only recently received consumer attention.

Is Xylitol Natural?

The name Xylitol (Zi-LA-Tol) may conjure up images of a mad scientist mixing some exotic new chemical compound in a laboratory or perhaps the image of some distant planet in some science fiction story.  In reality, neither is true.  A natural compound, Xylitol looks and tastes just like sugar. It is found naturally in many common fruits and vegetables, and it is even produced in our bodies during normal metabolism.

Sweet With Bacteria Fighting Properties

Xylitol is as sweet as sugar but carries none of the health concerns of sugar and artificial sweeteners which makes it completely safe for both children and adults. 

  • While regular sugar can wreak havoc on the body, Xylitol heals and repairs
  • While sugar is acid-forming in the body, Xylitol is alkaline-enhancing resulting in better health

Unlike most sugar molecules which are based on a six-carbon structure, Xylitol is based on five carbon atoms.  Because of its distinctive structure, bacteria cannot utilize Xylitol for energy.    Xylitol’s chemical configuration also inhibits the body’s ability to fully metabolize it, making it the perfect sweetener for those concerned with blood sugar balance, weight loss or carb counting.
