Recommendations for Better Health DRINK WATER! Herbal tea is fine. Drink half your weight in ounces everyday. For example: A 150lb person should drink at least 75oz of water per day. Please drink only filtered or purified water. NO TAP WATER! Adding Alka Trace Mineral Drops help to give your body an alkaline boost and add much-needed trace elements. EAT AT LEAST ONE LARGE GREEN SALAD PER DAY. Dark leafy greens are best. Eat 5-7 servings of raw or lightly steamed vegetables everyday. PURE SYNERGY is the product we recommend if you are weak in this area. GET FIBER! Not only will this help keep you more regular it helps maintain good health and weight management. Fiber is the skeleton of the plant that acts like a broom in our digestive tract. FIBERBLEND is an excellent source of fiber along with all fruits and veggies. AVOID CONSTIPATION! Want to develop a host of diseases and die young? Then just stay constipated and you are on a sure path for destruction...this is where it starts. Consider colon hydrotherapy as it very well may save your life. See our "services" page for very detailed information. We also have a variety of very safe and effective supplements to help you. CONSTIPATION RELIEF-A CLICK AWAY! DO NOT EAT BREAD PRODUCTS. Any starchy carbohydrate such as bread, pasta, crackers, muffins, etc. will constipate you- even whole wheat. These products "gum-up" the digestive system as well as break down into simple sugars=FAT. Stay away from products that contain the word "enriched". There are many sprouted grain breads and healthy pastas out there. STAY AWAY FROM DAIRY. Dairy products, once homogenized and pasteurized, do not help us get calcium but do produce mucous. Most yogurts are not healthy as they contain too much sugar and preservatives. AVOID SOY PRODUCTS. They rob your body of calcium and most are overprocessed. Check out www.westonaprice.org for more info on the drawbacks of soy. Edemame is OK. AVOID CAFFEINE & CARBONATED BEVERAGES. Coffee, carbonated drinks (even caffeine -free), chocolate and other caffeine containing products rob your body of calcium and create an acidic environment (unhealthy). SUPPLEMENTS. Whole food vitamins, FiberBlend, Barley Greens, Essential Fatty Acids, FloraPlus (strong probiotic blend) are just some recommended products to help keep our bodies balanced.CLICK for OUR FAVORITES! EXERCISE! Do some cardiovascular and weight bearing exercise at least 3-4 times weekly. This will improve your metabolism as well as give you an overall feeling of wellbeing. AVOID ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS. These are the equivilant of poison in our body. There is so much literature out there about the dangers-- don't ignore it! Use stevia, raw honey or agave nectar instead. High fructose corn syrup and white sugar are a "NO" as they are the #1 reason why we are overweight and suffer from type II diabetes. EDUCATE YOURSELF The more you learn, the more you know.
