Thank you for being in my life

Published by cathybliss under General

heartThank you for being in my life……

There comes a point in your life when you realize

who matters,

who never did,

who won’t anymore…

and who always will.

So, don’t worry about people from your past,

there’s a reason why they didn’t make it to your future.

Give this heart to everyone you don’t want to lose in 2009,

‘Be kinder than necessary
because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.’

A ‘Clean Start’ for the New Year

Published by cathybliss under Do You KNow?, NSP

Starting out the New Year
A ‘Clean Start’ for the New Year - Order Now so you can start in January

I have taught classes and given speeches entitled,
“Why do we take better care of our car than our body?”

When I ask the audience to raise their hands if they have changed the oil in their car in the last few months - most hands go up.
They do maintenance regularly on their car because:
1) it came with a handbook that tells to do that
2) it keeps the car under warranty
3) the vehicle will run smoothly and effectively when it’s fluids are clean

Then I ask for hands to go up if you have done a cleanse for your body in the last 6 months. Very few hands go up.

Why ?
We weren’t taught to cleanse internally, we didn’t come with a warranty or handbook.
We were taught basic hygiene, take a shower daily, clean teeth, smell good.

Just like a car will perform much better with clean liquids like oil and transmission fuel, it is the same for our human body.

We can easily clean internally:
* Pull out toxins
* Rotor rooter out the ‘goo & glue’ American diet
* Beef - hormones young girls puberty menopause problems
Antibiotics resistant bacteria
* Twinkies food additives
* remove plaque causing Malabsorption
* Fungi parasites love the warm goo great breeding ground
leads to Leaky gut holes in lining

HOW To Cleanse
Colonics - Trudeau suggests 15 colonics in one month!
Bill, my hubby puts colonics in the once in a lifetime category!
Get 10 sessions in a month $600 and takes lots of time

I wanted Effective, Easy, Safe, Inexpensive

My son Daniel, when he was teaching nutrition at Body Mind College, introduced me to:
Clean Start.   I loved it - (fluffy poops!) Now they have a wild berry, personally I like that much better than the apple.

Clean Start - always colon first, has enviro- detox so it helps rid the whole body of all the toxins, has bentonite clay that really pulls out toxins,
psyllium roto rooters out the gunk in the colon, has aloe to soothe as it cleans…

When to cleanse? At least 1 x a year
When would NOW be a good time to lighten the load?
Detox, unblock blockages so you can absorb nutrients

Watch your amazing human body heal, get vibrant, have energy
Less gas, mind fog, pain, inflammation allergies

Human Body Handbook says cleanse internally!

Syndrome X, what it is, what to take, holistic perspective

Published by cathybliss under Ask an Expert, Health News, NSP

TAHI 12-08
The only difference between a taxman and a taxidermist is that the taxidermist leaves the skin.
Mark Twain

I’ve been asked to explain syndrome X a little more, to have a better understanding of it. Syndrome X is caused by lack of dietary omega 3s and/or too much omega 6s, transfats, and rancid fats. This combination makes the cell walls thick and therefore insulin and cortisol resistant. Syndrome X always leads to diabetes, loss of eyesight, heart attack, muscle loss, exhausted endocrine system, sleep apnea, and the diseases of stored inflammation.
Syndrome X affects the liver by making it oxidize cholesterol, therefore elevating blood triglyceride levels. It affects the kidneys by making them mishandle sodium and potassium, with the result of gout and joint inflammation. Syndrome X causes inflammation of the arterial walls, elevated blood pressure, blood clot formation, and narrowing arterial passages. It affects the pancreas and adrenals by exhausting them, by them struggling to control blood sugar over excreting insulin and cortisol in an effort to get the blood sugar balance under control. It affects the ovaries, testicles, pituitary, and thyroid by causing them to excrete excess hormones that are clearly out of balance. Syndrome X causes lack of blood sugar in the brain, so you have foggy thinking, slowed reaction time, and a desire to go out and vote. Syndrome X causes acid shell growth by triggering the cellular receptor sites for sugar, causing acid.
Some types of essential fatty acids are linolinec acid - ALA, eicosapentaenoic acid - EPA, and docosahexaenoic - DHA. There are many others, but for this article I’ll concentrate on these three, for it is the growing opinion these are the critical three. These oils are the basis for hormones, healthy cell walls, and intelligent thinking. These are the slow the age rate down oils.
It is the opinion that the conversion of ALA to EPA and then to DHA, the brain-nerve fatty acid, in humans is severely limited. Women have higher ALA conversion efficiency than men, most likely due to the lower rate of utilization of dietary ALA for oxidation. In the book, The Real Benefits of Omega 3 Fatty Acids in Fish Oils as Opposed to Seed Oils, is listed the factors that inhibit the ALA conversion. It shows that the efficiency of ALA conversion can be adjusted by altering one’s diet, by altering the ratio of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acid intake, reducing alcohol consumption, eliminating high fructose corn syrup, and supplementing vitamins and minerals. However, it has also been argued that it is the absolute amount of ALA, rather than the ratio of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids, which affect the conversion. Further testing will need to be done to justify either opinion. Nevertheless, it is near impossible to have an excess of non-rancid omega 3 oils in the body, so supplement them. Many have the opinion that omega 3s should be seven times higher than omega 6s for optimum health, the American diet is opposite this ratio.
I am continually asked why I recommend an alkaline diet, and what is an alkaline diet? An alkaline diet is a diet that emphasizes, to a varying degree, fresh fruit, vegetables, roots and tubers, nuts, and legumes. Our hunter-gatherer ancestors consumed a diet very different from what’s typical today. The diet was based on minimally processed plant and animal foods. But with the advent of agriculture, the standard western diet changed greatly. Grains were introduced into the diet after the appearance of stone tools. Refined grains were available after the invention of automated rolling and sifting devices. Milk, cheese, and other milk products were introduced with the domestication of livestock. Pasteurized homogenized milk products became available after the need for extended shelf life. Salt consumption rose when technology to mine, process, and transport it became available. Meat consumption increased with animal husbandry. It further increased with the advent of technology that enabled grains and legumes to be efficiently fed to cattle, which allowed cattle to be fattened quickly. Sugar consumption has risen since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
All foods or nonfoods that are eaten, after being digested, absorbed, and metabolized, release either an acid or an alkaline base into blood. Grains, meat, poultry, shellfish, cheese, milk, and salt all produce acid, so the introduction and dramatic rise in our consumption of these foods meant that the typical western diet became more acid producing. The consumption of fruit and vegetables decreased, which further made the western diet more acid producing. Nonfoods you say? Since when is coffee, cigarettes, or Twinkies a food?
Healthy blood is slightly alkaline, with a normal pH level of between 7.35 and 7.45. The theory behind the alkaline diet is that our diet should reflect this pH level, as it did in the past, and be slightly alkaline. Proponents of alkaline diets believe that a diet high in acid-producing foods disrupts this balance and promotes the loss of the essential alkaline minerals iodine, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and sodium, as the body tries to restore equilibrium. This imbalance makes people prone to illness.
According to most alternative health practitioners, the shift to an acid-producing diet is the cause of a number of chronic diseases. Many health practitioners recommend the alkaline diet if a person has the following symptoms, lack of energy, excessive mucous production, nasal congestion, frequent colds and flu, anxiety, nervousness, irritability, cysts and tumors, polycystic ovaries, benign breast cysts, headaches, joint aches and pains, muscle stiffness or pain, apnea, constipation, diarrhea, advanced age, and low libido.
Although conventional medicine believes that increasing the consumption of fruit and vegetables and reducing the intake of meat, salt, and refined grains is beneficial to health, most doctors do not believe that an acid-producing diet is the foundation of chronic illness. In conventional medicine, there is evidence, however, that alkaline diets will help prevent the formation of calcium kidney stones, osteoporosis, age-related muscle wasting, loss of blood sugar control, and advanced aging.
