Improving through knowledge

2011-05-24T23:42:00.001-06:00

I'm back two kids later, I can say that things are busy. My husband and I have been reading books on how to improve our financial status, and be able to retire earlier to be able to spend more time doing the things that we would like to be doing watching our children grow up instead of our bosses turning grayer! We both finished reading a book by T. Harv Eker called "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind" I really enjoyed the book and what he says is true it all starts in the inside before it comes out. Our outer self is a result of our feelings and thoughts.

This being said Our youth is inside us lets let it out!!!!

SWINE FLU - Good Advice H1N1 Preventive Methods

2009-10-24T10:49:00.001-06:00

The following advice, given by Dr. Oz, makes a lot of sense and is important for all to know:

The only portals of entry are the nostrils and mouth/throat. In a global epidemic of this nature, it's almost impossible to avoid coming into contact with H1N1 in spite of all precautions. Contact with H1N1 is not so much of a problem as proliferation is. While you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1infection, in order to prevent proliferation, aggravation of symptoms and development of secondary infections, some very simple steps, not fully highlighted in most official communications, can be practiced (instead of focusing on how to stock N95 or Tamiflu):

1. Frequent hand-washing (well highlighted in all official communications).

2. "Hands-off-the-face" approach. Resist all temptations to touch any part of face (unless you want to eat or bathe.)

3. Gargle twice a day with warm salt water (use Listerine or Hydrogen Peroxide if you don't trust salt). *H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in the throat/ nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In away, gargling with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu has on an infected one. Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and powerful preventative method.

4. Similar to 3 above, clean your nostrils at least once every day with warm salt water, or hydrogen peroxide. *Not everybody may be good at cleaning nasal cavities), but blowing the nose softly once a day and swabbing both nostrils with cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down viral population.

5. Boost your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C (Amla and other citrus fruits). *If you have to supplement with Vitamin C and Vitamin D. tablets, make sure that it also has Zinc to boost absorption.

6. Drink as much of warm liquids (tea, coffee, etc) as you can. Drinking warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the stomach where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any harm. Pass this on to your entire e-list. You never know who might pay attention to it - and STAY ALIVE because of it.

EMU OIL

2009-09-29T09:59:00.001-06:00

Valued for thousands of years by Australia’s native Aboriginals for its healing powers, emu oil offers many natural qualities that is beneficial to one’s health. Emu oil comes from the emu, a prehistoric bird that still roams down under.

Emu oil is comes from the thick layer of fat on the back of the emu bird. Commonly, used for the production of cosmetics but has also been proven to have medical properties, as an intensive pain reliever used in the treatment of chronic arthritis, strains, sprains, and muscle pain. It is also widely used as a wound healing accelerant.

Emu oil naturally contains Vitamin E, which is a major antioxidant and healing agent; Vitamin A, a known skin repairer and antioxidant; Linoleic acid, which helps to ease muscle aches and joint pain; Emu oil products make wonderful moisturizers, Oleic acid, which is a proven skin cell regenerator and anti-wrinkle agent; Sapogens, proven skin softeners; and Terpines, known antiseptics not promoting the growth of bacteria; Hypoallergenic; and a highly penetrating oil that absorbs without leaving a greasy feel, which does not clog pores.

Emu oil is a proven anti-inflammatory, with effects comparable to that of ibuprofen, increasingly being in sports medicine, emu oil products are applied by professional sports teams and fitness centers around the world.

Naturally enriched with pain relieving and anti-inflammatory agents, emu oil products also reduce discomfort and soothe sore muscles and joints offering a fast respite from leg cramps, muscle aches, pains and pulls.
Just be aware that, not all emu oil sold on the market today is of animal origin.

Last weekend Fort McMurray Tourism had a trade show and I had a chance to meet with Sandra Verbecky who gave me a list common uses for Emu Oil, which her customers and friends have personally experienced which I thought was pretty awesome.

The APPLE CIDER VINEGAR Way

2009-09-24T09:50:00.000-06:00

The APPLE CIDER VINEGAR Way

To ease a cold or fever drink a cup of hot water with honey and a splash of apple cider vinegar -approx. 2-3 tsp.

As a grooming or hygiene product:
1) Soak feet in warm water with apple cider vinegar (approx 1/4 -1/2 cup). Towel vigorously to clean up callouses and dead skin.
2) Soak in a warm bath that has apple cider vinegar (approx 1 cup). Towel vigorously to cleanse skin.
3) Add a splash of apple cider vinegar to the rinse water as a conditioner after shampooing hair. This cleanses the hair and leaves it soft.
4) Brush your teeth with apple cider vinegar to minimize plaque buildup 3 or 4 times a year. This should be treated as food and a good regular brushing after the vinegar brush is necessary.

Add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to home made soup to enhance the flavor.

Adding a drop or 2 (depending on the size of the pet) of apple cider vinegar to the drinking water helps to clear eye discharge.

My dairy farmer brother gave apple cider vinegar to his cows
1) to aid digestion
2) when they had difficulty coming into heat.

Thyroid Herbal Supplements That Work - Try These Natural Herbal Remedies

2009-09-22T18:12:00.000-06:00

An under or over active thyroid is one of those problems that is hard to diagnose because it can be responsible for a very large range of health problems. The hormones produced by the thyroid gland help to regulate your metabolism and your nervous system. This means that a faulty thyroid could be related to abnormal fatigue, weight gain, unexplained loss of appetite, hair problems, dry skin, problems regulating body temperature, abnormal libido, depression, drooping eyes, muscle cramps, and even memory loss.

The easiest way to know you have a thyroid problem is if any of these health problems seem to be cropping up in a completely unexplained manner. Even then, it may not be a thyroid problem. That means you need to see a doctor or a professional who can diagnose for thyroid disorders.

Herbal remedies are better than medical procedures for thyroid problems.

Unfortunately, modern medical science does not have a commonly known cure that is effective for hypothyroidism. There are some surgeries and prescription medications available, but clinical research has generally shown them to be about equally effective as herbal remedies.

Modern medicine's strategy for fighting thyroid problems is to replace the hormones your thyroid replaces with synthetic hormones. Unfortunately, these hormones can have many unexpected side effects and not even work in some cases. On the other hand, herbal remedies work by trying to cure the source of the problem, which is the thyroid. Examples of a few herbal remedies available are coleus and bayberry bark.

There are also herbal remedies that work to fight the symptoms of thyroid problems. For example, St. John's Wort is commonly used by herbal medicine practitioners to fight the depression and sluggishness that come along with hypothyroidism. While medical science has some drugs that fight depression, they tend to have extremely undesirable side effects that can at times be worse than the disease.

If you think your Thyroid is acting up, I highly recommend you try this Thypro free trial here: http://www.treatmentforthyroid.com/. I was feeling tired all day long no matter how long I slept, however once I started taking this thyroid supplement I felt my energy levels go back up to normal.
