You probably hear almost daily that another one of your friends or co-workers is sick. The media is still pumping up the swine flu even though some medical authorities have said that it has already peaked and has not been the event that it was predicted to be. Personally, I’m tired of hearing about it.
I don’t believe that most people need to get sick, especially not with things like a cold or the flu. None of my immediate family has been sick in over a year, and it isn’t because we live in isolation. I have small kids who go to school every day and are around other sick kids, so they have been “exposed” to whatever is out there, as have my wife and I.
So why don’t we get sick? We do just a few things different than other people. The biggest is that we drink a lot of alkaline water instead of carbonated beverages or coffee. Other things that we do include taking a good green barley grass supplement, a mushroom based immunity supplement, and make sure that our indoor air is filtered. My kids like taking these supplements too.
Naturally, I can’t guarantee that you will have the same results as we have. It is sure worth giving it a try. Find out more about the water filtration that we use and the nutritional supplements that we take.

How is your immune system doing for you? Right now I am watching to a video from David Wolfe, who is considered to be one of the leading authorities on nutrition, about how important it is to take care of the immune system. He spent a good part of the video talking about a specific class of herbs that are very important to boost the immune system. These herbs are the medicinal mushrooms. He said that these are the mushrooms that grow on fallen trees. What they do is work to concentrate certain minerals that the trees have absorbed throughout their lifetime, which can exceed 100 years.
He mentioned 5 specific mushrooms to look for. Reishi, Maitake, Shiitake, Agaricus, and Coriolus to look for when looking to boost your immunity.
David Wolfe also mentioned how they also contain a lot of protein and can affect other systems like the nervous system and brain function as well as the blood and heart. Very cool stuff.

I take a mushroom supplement that has 4 of the mushrooms David talks about plus 10 more for a total of 14 medicinal mushrooms. Click here for the Immunity supplement.

I’m with a network marketing company that, among other things, sells a nutritional juice product. I received an email this morning from my upline that made me think about artificial additives in our food. Someone had asked the Distributor Relations department of our MLM company if they could share the difference between our juice product, Ciaga, with the juice product from a competitor. It turns out that the competitor’s juice, which contains a lot of Vitamin C, also contains Sodium Benzoate as a preservative. It turns out that sodium benzoate can interact with vitamin C and form Benzene, an organic solvent that is known to cause cancer and liver damage.
My point here is not to bash the other company and their product, which is why I have not named them, but to point out that we need to be very careful when buying food to really think about added chemicals and how they may react with each other and the food they are added to. I strongly encourage you to look at organic and all-natural versions of food. They may be more expensive in the short term but can save you a lot in the long-term.
By the way, Ciaga is 100% natural. 97% juice and 3% fruit solids with no artificial preservatives and no added water or sugar.

Do you know the benefits of good nutrition? You already know that too much of the wrong foods will make you gain wait, which can lead to a lot of chronic diseases. Proper nutrition will help you to stay fit and healthy with plenty of energy to do the things you want to do. Good nutrition goes deeper though.
Do you remember when your mother told you that you are what you eat? It turns out that she was right. Did you know that your entire skin is replaced within about a month? In addition to providing you with the calories to do your daily activities, the nutrition that you take in every day is what your body uses to continuously rebuild itself.
Suppose that you are building a house. If you used low-grade materials you know that you that you won’t end up with a very sturdy house, right? So why provide your body with low-grade materials for it to rebuild itself? It needs the best possible materials to build a strong, healthy body for you to live in. The real, long-term importance of good nutrition: to provide your body with the best quality building material for it to continuously regenerate itself. And the long-term benefits of good nutrition are that you have a strong body that can function efficiently well into “old age”.
Here are some more timeframes I have found or heard. Ten million cell are replaced every second. The stomach lining is regenerated weekly. Your skin is replaced about once a month. It takes about 6 weeks to replace your liver. About every 3 months you have a completely new skeleton. And finally, every seven years or so every cell in your body is replaced. That’s right, you are physically never more than seven years old. Changes your perspective on “old age”, doesn’t it?
