flu fight fever!

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

Today is the first day back after a tough few days of fighting off the flu that seems to be floating around getting everyone.  I didn’t go quietly though as I began to fight it the minute my head started to feel like a pin cushion and my throat started to close up.  The first thing I did was go to the “raw food” store down the street and get a pure blend of garlic, celery, parsley and beet juice.  I drank this concoction for most of the day then I took echinacea in capsule form followed by a chaser of E3 Live.

This was the first time I’ve actually taken E3Live, although I’ve been reading up on it for the last few months.  I usually drink one ounce of wheat grass everyday for cleansing but for the purpose of killing this flu I thought this would be a good time to try out E3 and see if it could help  with my fight against the flu. It worked like a charm.

The combination of power juicing, E3Live and popping echinacea every 3 hours did the trick as I was able to function in a limited capacity over the last few days without having to curl up into a ball like some of my friends have been doing when they got hit with this nasty virus.  I’m not sure exactly where I picked it up, but I am certain from what my friends have been describing that I avoided the worst of it.  I typically get sick once a year and I’m hoping this was my “one time” so the rest of 2008 is clear sailing.

E3Live™ (fresh-frozen, liquid AFA) is an all-organic wild-harvested aqua-botanical considered by renowned health authorities to be nature’s most beneficial superfood.

Physiologically, E3Live™ helps restore overall body/mind balance in numerous ways. Its field of action simultaneously includes the immune, endocrine, nervous, gastro-intestinal and cardio-vascular systems.

Nutritionally, E3Live™ provides 64 easily absorbed vitamins, minerals and enzymes and has more biologically active chlorophyll than any known food. It is the most nutrient dense food known to mankind…or so they say.

Thoughts for the brain…

Monday, November 5th, 2007

Research has taken me all kinds of directions these days and I thought this was something wortwhile to post as the body and mind are more connected than we think.

HEALTH and BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS (you should try to avoid)

1. No Breakfast
People who do not eat breakfast typically will have a lower blood sugar level for the rest of the day and will develop chronic low blood sugar levels if continued for long periods of time.  This could further lead to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating - This can cause hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power and capacity.

3. Smoking - This causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar Consumption - Too much sugar can interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with further brain development.

5. Air Pollution - The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation - Sleep allows our body, intestines and brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the loss of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping - Sleeping with your head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness - working hard or studying with a sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as possible damage.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts - thinking is the best way to train our brain and keep it in shape; lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may
cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely - Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain if done on a regular basis.
