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.

In-laws In-town…

September 18th:

My in-laws have come in from Korea and I’m particularly happy they are here as its been awhile since i saw them last.  My father is an avid golfer so i’ve booked tee times at several places all over Nevada including a trip over to Mesquite where the whole family can go and enjoy a nice resort, spa and some golf at a great price.

We all ate dinner together at a Korean restaurant and I had some tasty spicy vegetable soup with some rice, kimchi and some tofu.  My parents were shocked when they saw my giant belly was gone and they didnt give me a hard time at the small amount of food I ate (usually Korean parents bother you that you didnt eat enough).   What is interesting to me and probably more to them is the amount of food i used to eat; the last time they saw me in Korea i hate 4 times as much as i did tonight for any any meal of the day. 

With the exception of dinner, I only ate a peanut butter (organic) and banana sandwich and drank juice all day along with all my supplements.  Here is the list of what I take everyday:

 Aloe Vera                
 Certified Organic Alfalfa          
 Stevia                                                                                                                                                                                            Nattozimes 
 Essential Sugars Complex                                                                                                                                                                          Ginko                                                                                                                                                                                               Resveratrol Complex
Glucosamine, Chondroitin, & Msm 
Spirulina          
Chlorella         

I have a small vitamin shop in my house now as they are lined up along the counter for easy access to them 3 times a day.
