Are Your Supplements What You Think?

Business with NSP, Cancer, Diabetes, Heart Health, , , ,

At our recent Canadian Health Convention we had many professionals speaking about the current state of health in North America. The statistics presented by Dr. Melina B. Jampolis, Physician Nutrition Specialist, Dr. Duarte,  Dr. Balas, Dr. Julie deVisser and Dr. Trip were somewhat appalling!

Cancer is on the increase, #1 killer in those under 50 yrs., diabetes and obesity is on the rise, especially in children, and Cardio Vascular disease still being our #1 killer over age 50. ALL of these conditions are preventable. We saw statistics showing the difference that herbs , vitamins, minerals, proper nutrition, exercise and stress reduction can make – HUGE!
All  3 days of presentations confirmed that many of the solutions given are in my book:  The Paw Paw Program – A “Christopher Columbus” Approach to Cancer – The World IS Round and Cancer CAN Be Treated Naturally. 

Extensive dietary recommendations help people understand how to eat better and improve on all Four Pillars of Health. Recipes are included. Exercise is promoted. Stress reduction and spiritual connections is covered. Understanding why eliminating sugar is critical to optimum health and prevention of all chronic conditions,

Scientific research has demonstrated that taking a multiple-nutrient supplement is more beneficial than taking individual nutrients. It is known that nutrients taken in combination are synergistic, meaning the the individual benefits are enhanced. For this reason, NSP’s Super Trio pack combines daily essential nutrients, including balanced vitamins and minerals, fatty acids, anti-oxidants and herbs that work together for maximum nutritional support.

This one addition has made a huge difference for many people. Find out how you can benefit from adding Super Trio to your life.

Contact us, so we can ensure you get discount of 20-25%, plus FREE S/H anywhere in N.A.

Most people notice a difference within one month, but to really effect change, make a 3-6 month commitment to your better health!

Knowing how important Daily Nutrition is to our health and well being, the article below made me sit up and take note. I was shocked to learn that 60% of the herbal products contained something different than that specified on the label and that only 2 out of the 12 of the companies were authentic.

In other words if you are buying herbal products from companies other than Nature’s Sunshine you do not know what you are getting. Cheaper is not better.  Nature’s Sunshine is a company with a proven track record of over 40 years and it has surpassed any other company of herbal products because it sustains its integrity of quality. Their products are thoroughly tested and they work! With Nature’s Sunshine, you also get the benefit of Service and education!

The alternative herbal market is exploding. I know we are in the right business. If you are thinking of a great business either part time or full time please contact me – we need more of me, as North American health continues to deteriorate. Read this news to understand why we use, and encourage you to use Nature’s Sunshine,  who choose Quality by Design. 

 

 Public release date: 11-Oct-2013

 Study: Herbal products omit ingredients, contain fillers 

Consumers of natural health products beware. The majority of herbal products on the market contain ingredients not listed on the label, with most companies substituting cheaper alternatives and using fillers, according to new research from the University of Guelph.

The study, published today in the open access journal BMC Medicine, used DNA barcoding technology to test 44 herbal products sold by 12 companies.

Only two of the companies provided authentic products without substitutions, contaminants or fillers.

Overall, nearly 60 per cent of the herbal products contained plant species not listed on the label.

Researchers detected product substitution in 32 per cent of the samples.

More than 20 per cent of the products included fillers such as rice, soybeans and wheat not listed on the label.

 Medicinal herbs now constitute the fastest-growing segment of the North American alternative medicine market, with more than 29,000 herbal substances sold.

THE PAW PAW PROGRAM – A “CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS”APPROACH TO CANCER…..THE WORLD IS ROUND AND CANCER CAN BE TREATED NATURALLY”

This book began in April, 2005, when I wrote, “A Complementary Approach to Cancer“, for a series of cross Canada Health Classes to teach people about Paw Paw, a herb used as part of a natural program for cancer.

The end result is a 286 page book offering a program that works, is affordable, and can be combined with allopathic treatments. The book includes background, research, all instructions, and dietary suggestions about protein, pH, additional supportive supplementation, treatment options, lifestyle suggestions, case studies, success stories, and more. It answers a lot of the questions that have been asked by those following the program the last 5 years! It is professionally done, with charts and illustrations, making it easy to understand.

This book was written to offer help to anyone dealing with cancer, as well as to help understand causes and incorporate preventative lifestyle changes. For practitioners working with Cancer this book is a must to save you time and help your clients understand a natural approach.

Success Stories

 

Candida Clear Cleanse:

“I am having fantastic feedback from everyone who uses the Candida Clear Cleanse. Six different people who did this cleanse ALL lost weight within the 2 week s– the men lost up to 20 pounds, the women between 10 – 13 pounds

One woman who has bad indigestion, belching for years now knows exactly when she takes something that is not good for her.  This has really helped people understand the importance of diet. People are sleeping better, getting rid of belly bulge and having way better energy. Until people step up to the plate and try they do this cleanse, they cannot really understand the detrimental effect alcohol, bread, sugar and fast foods have on their health. If someone has problems with alcohol, they  are best to do the Tiao He Cleanse first.”   Liz

Thanks for sharing Liz! We could probably all benefit from a Candida cleanse after Christmas.

Silver:

We continue to get great success stories with both the liquid Silver Guard and Silver Gel. We are taking ½ to 1 tsp. a day of the liquid Guard – keeps our immune system strong, and Dr. Pedersen sees results worldwide for this helping to prevent flu and many other infections! Silver is much safer than injecting thimersol (mercury) or other preservatives, formaldehyde, laborartory viruses, and egg parts into your blood stream via vaccines. Read more at:

Omega 3

Recent studies show that Omega 3 can have significant impact on both preventing and slowing Alzheimers. NSP Super Omega contains 1000 mg of a ratio of 33:16 EPA to DHA Omega 3s. In addition it improves cardiovascular health by increasing blood vessel strength and decreasing platelet formation, increases brain function, decreases inflammation and improves mood and behaviour.

Political Scene

Another Canadian Bill, this time C36 has passed, which may have harsh impact on natural health products. The natural Health Products Branch continues to threaten the rights to choose. We need to continue to write our politicians to express our wishes to have the right to choice of safe, natural products. Strange when you consider the challenges that pharmaceuticals cause. Here are some stats over 10 years old, so know that the situation is even worse now!

On July 26, 2000, the medical community received a titanic shock when one of its most respected and honored public-health experts, Dr. Barbara Starfield, revealed her findings on healthcare in America.

The landmark Starfield study, “Is US health really the best in the world?”published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, came to the following conclusions:

 

Every year in the US there are:

 

12,000 deaths from unnecessary surgeries;

7,000 deaths from medication errors in hospitals;

20,000 deaths from other errors in hospitals;

80,000 deaths from infections acquired in hospitals;

106,000 deaths from FDA-approved correctly prescribed medicines.

The total of medically-caused deaths in the US every year is 225,000.

 

This makes the medical system the third leading cause of death in the US, behind   heart disease and cancer. Canada would be pretty much the same, just divide numbers by 10.

 

This means we DO need to learn how to look after ourselves better – take control of our own health via better lifestyle. This includes eating whole, unprocessed, non-modified foods, getting regular exercise, enjoying sunshine, decreasing stress, avoiding toxic pollution whether that be electro-magnetic, fluoride in our water, or negative situations, keeping hydrated with pure water, and learning to understand our bodies to prevent disease.

My book covers a lot of these essential tips, as getting better and prevention both entail many of the same steps.

Learn the simple remedies of nature, which are provided to help us.

Consider making my Annual Herbal Intensive this July a priority, so you can understand these gifts of nature, and how to use them.

This year’s 3 ½ day intensive will be either July 8-11th or July 15-18th – the first people registering will determine preference. Email for detailed poster.

 

 

Humour

 

“Proverbs 17:22 – A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones. This can be taken literally. I have heard that laughter not only stimulates the liver but it also stimulates the marrow in the bones. Here’s one for your bones:

Christmas is just plain weird! What other time of the year do you sit in front of a dead or plastic tree in the living room and eat candy our of your socks?

 

Spiritual and Emotional

 

Enjoy and fill your being with joy. Truly we have lots to appreciate. The more we express gratitude for what we DO have, the more we will have.

 

 

 

Raising Healthy Children

 

Have you tried any of Children’s Heroes supplements? All I can say is they ARE delicious. Another health treat that children love is the TNT bars. They are “zone” balanced, meaning healthy ratio of protein, carbohydrate and fats to keep blood sugar levels even. They also provide vitamins, minerals and fibre. Children seem to love them and they are more reasonably priced than lesser quality bars.

We use them too, especially when on the run, or if a “sweet tooth” craving comes up.

Cut them up for snacks and healthy treats!

 

All the best in 2011!

Yours in health,

Success Stories

“Thank you so much. I feel amazing today; the progress since I’ve seen you is incredible!  The combination of things you gave me is divine, they must be angel picked.*  I’m inspired with making new food choices, life is great. Also appreciate all the information you emailed, and the time you spent with me and my husband.”

Thanks, DP, BC

*Products used were: Noni (Morinda), Lobelia, Slippery Elm and Vit. E, (via Compass Assessment and CRA) along with lifestyle recommendations of dietary change, exercise and emotional clearing to deal with healing crisis.)

“I have used Super Oil for the last two years and what a difference it has made for my dry skin. Plus my joints seem way more supple!” JG, Ontario

In our office we use Super Oil for energy, arthritic and inflammatory conditions, hormonal balancing, weight loss, skin & hair health, nerves and MS. That covers a lot of things! Super Oil is that – a super combination of Salmon Oil, Flax, Evening Primrose, with lemon oil and Vit. E for preservatives and flavoring. Yet another reason why NSP Super Oil is an excellent product for just about everybody! Stock # 8235-8 in Canada.

Political Scene

Bill C-36, which is again trying to “protect us” from Natural Health products is in House reading. PLEASE contact your MP to get their stance on this and make your views known.

I am aware of 2 cases, too close to home for comfort, in the last couple of months.

1.  An ND in Alberta, Eldon Haas, had his home searched while he and wife were held at gun point for most of the day. Folic Acid was confiscated.

2. Marigold, a natural pharmacy in Courtenay, BC, was searched with the assistance of 2 armed RCMP, $146,000 of natural products confiscated, and pharmacy closed down.

These are only 2 incidents of which I know; many more have surely happened, and yes, folks, this is IN Canada. I have spoken to both of these people to verify this, and unfortunately , both are true!

Bill C-36 can only make things worse for those who are willing to help themselves to better health. Big Pharma is threatened by potential decrease in sales, and Canadians are selling their souls for the sake of the “global economy”, if they don’t speak up.

Make yourself aware to prepare for the upcoming “get your flu shot”  propaganda:

Canadians To Be Vaccinated With Live H1N1 Virus with MSG For The 2010/11 Flu Season
http://preventdisease.com/news/10/092310_toxic_flumist_vaccine.shtml
The Public Health Agency of Canada has once again given their seal of approval for the injection of a dangerous cocktail of toxic chemicals they call a trivalent vaccine. The 2010/11 recipients of AstraZeneca’s FLUMIST will be exposed to several strains of live viruses including H1N1 and H3N2. The vaccine also contains MSG and other known neurotoxins and immunotoxins.

Stay tuned for Duncan Vaccine Class, November 3rd.

Business

We are always looking for more people to train as herbal specialists. There is a great need for those who wish to earn and learn, while helping others.

Spiritual and Emotional

Saint Augustine defined the grace of love as Volo ut sis—I want you to be. There is, he wrote, an affirmation of the mystery of the other in relationships based on love, an affirmation of unexplained and unfathomable differences. Relationships based on love recognize that others have a right to be. These relationships accept the sacredness of difference. This acceptance means that no one individual or belief system captures or espouses an absolute truth. All struggle, in their own way, some outside of religious systems and some within them, to interpret mystery and transcendence.

Raising Healthy Children:

The job of the infant and toddler is to move, touch and connect with other humans. Restrained by bucket seats, strollers and backpacks, infants aged 0-2 years old watch an average 2.2 hours per day of TV, and 25% have TV’s in their bedrooms. Toddlers age 3-5 years use 4.5 hours per day of combined technology. This technology overuse is resulting in delays in achieving developmental milestones needed for school entry. One third of children who enter school will be categorized as “developmentally vulnerable” and go on to fail their grade 4

and 7 exams and not complete high school. Low postural tone, poor coordination, delayed speech, behavior disorders, and  difficulty paying attention are just a few 21st century problems concerning therapists throughout North America. Movement, touch and human connection is crucial in this day and age of technology obsession.

From Cris Rowan, BSc Occupational Therapy and Biology, SIPT certified Pediatric Sensory Specialist, CEO of Zone’in Programs Inc. and author of, “Virtual Child: The terrifying truth about what technology is doing to children“.

So go outside and play with your children – if you don’t have any handy, ask to share some time with a single parent’s child! What a great benefit to all of you!

Happy Thanksgiving to all Canadians! No matter where you live give thanks for everything that you can!

Yours in health,

Omega Oils: Why Do You Need Them ?

Healthy Solutions, Omegas, , , , ,

WHY HAVE OMEGAS aka FISH OILS IN YOUR DIET?

FISH OIL MAY HELP RELIEVE STUBBORN DEPRESSION

Daily supplements of  omega-3 fatty acid–found in fish and fish oil–may help alleviate the symptoms of depression in patients who do not respond to standard antidepressant medications, new research findings suggest.

Studies done in England  found that depressed patients who received a daily dose of 1000 mg of an omega-3 fatty acid for 12 weeks experienced a decrease in their
symptoms, such as sadness, anxiety and sleeping problems.

All of the patients had tried other medications before enrolling in the
study, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)
such as Prozac and tricyclic antidepressants., both considered standard
treatments for depression.

This is not the first study to suggest that omega-3 fatty acids, such as the
form of eicosapenaenoic acid (EPA) used in this study, may help patients
with psychiatric disorders. Previous researchers have suggested that the
balance of omega-3 fatty acids in the brain may become skewed in people with
depression, and earlier studies have shown that fish oil supplements can
help alleviate the symptoms of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, or manic
depression.

People who are depressed, as well as those diagnosed with cardiovascular diseases have relatively low levels of omega-3 fatty acids in their blood.

Balancing Omega 3and 6 EFAs requires a little education on essential fatty acids.
Your most important fatty acids are your omega-3s and your omega-
6s. The body requires a proper balance of omega-3 and omega-6
essential fatty acids. Flax seed oil contains a balance of these
two essential fatty acids. Most vegetable oils only contain omega-6 oils.
Ingesting too much omega-6 with too little omega-3 creates a
tendency towards inflammation, high blood pressure and other
imbalances.

Most North Americans ingest too much omega-6 and get very
little omega-3. Taking flax seed oil won’t counterbalance this. Most
people need  extra omega-3 to balance the vegetable oils in their diet. The only  reliable sources of omega-3 are wild game, and wild deep ocean fish such as salmon – farm raised does not cut it!

So, fish oil supplements will give you the extra omega-3 your body needs. In a nutshell, these are some of the basic functions of Omega 3’s and 6’s.

Main Functions of Omega 3EFAs:

  • Cell structure and function (central nervous system, brain, eyes & retinal function)
  • Ratio and disposition of blood cholesterol & triglycerides
  • Blood chemistry & clotting mechanism
  • Inflammatory response of the immune system

(More men than women have an O-3 deficiency.  Key symptoms include acne, low sperm count & other testicle problems, dangerous behavior)

Main Functions of Omega 6 EFAs:

  • Cell structure & function (cellular membrane fluidity, flexibility, metabolic function)
  • Dermal fluid permeability and kidney function
  • Endocrine balance (metabolism, immune function, reproduction)
  • Circulation

Contact Benoit Health Education to get omega’s that are tested for purity and strength. We work with Flax Oil, Evening Primrose Oil, Super Omega 3’s and a combination oil called Super Oil. We can help you figure out the best one for your needs.
