Probiotic Supplements: Does Your Health Depend On Killing Bacteria or Promoting It?

Are you worried about germs?

Maybe you should be more worried about your sanitizer.

Is Your Sanitizer Killing Germs or You?

If it is made by Clarcon Biological Chemistry Laboratory’s facility in Roy, Utah, you definitely don’t want to use it.

The FDA seized all skin sanitizers and skin protectants, including ingredients and components, after Clarcon voluntarily recalled the affected products but then refused to destroy them immediately.

The reason the FDA is so concerned is because the products contain harmful bacteria and are promoted as antimicrobial agents that claim to:

  • treat open wounds
  • treat damaged skin
  • protect against various infectious diseases

There have been no cases of infectious disease reported, but the FDA says that the products contained high levels of a variety of different bacteria.  Some of these bacteria are capable of causing opportunistic infections of the skin and underlying tissues.

This type of infection can require medical or surgical attention and may result in permanent damage.

Obviously this is a worse case scenario.  Literally pouring harmful bacteria into an open wound is about as worse case as you can get.

The reason this issue grabbed my attention is that any attempt to make your environment safer by killing bacteria is a flawed plan.

In Clarcon’s case, they are cultivating opportunistic bacteria, bottling it and selling it.

This is gross negligence, however your home has the possibility of being a very dangerous petri dish, too.

If you use anti-bacterial soaps and even sanitizers, you may well be creating mutant bacteria that are capable of much more harm than the bacteria you killed.  If you are at war with bacteria, you are fighting a losing battle.

Animals that were raised in a germ-free environment were frequently sick, exhibited grossly underdeveloped immune systems and vulnerable intestinal tracts.

You need to work in harmony with bacteria in order to digest your food.  No balance … poor digestion.

Without balance in your body, your normal intestinal flora are over come with yeast and problematic bacteria.

Over time this imbalance can really create serious issues, and will drastically effect your ability to absorb nutrition from your food.

Health Building Begins In Your Bowel!

The number of bacteria in your gut out numbers the number of cells in your body by a ratio of ten to one.  This gut flora has incredible power over your immune system.

Make friends with bacteria, and build your health!

Probiotic Supplements are the equivalent of pouring good bacteria down your throat!  These friendly bacteria promise BETTER health by:

  • boosting your immune system
  • preventing allergic inflammation and food allergy
  • clearing up eczema in children
  • healing the intestines from a variety of ailments

Dr. Mercola can explain why supplementing your diet with good bacteria might be YOUR Secret Weapon against disease!

If You Drink Soda, Is Your Healthy Diet Plan Legit?

If You Drink Soda Is Your Healthy Diet Plan Legit

Does the thought of a tall bubbling glass of soda on ice make you thirsty?  I mean doesn’t it make everyone salivate?

Have a Coke and a smile, right?

The craving for that bubbling glass of smiling goodness has become an epidemic.

Are you addicted to soda?  Is it your drug?

Do you know why you should consider giving soda up?

  • Soda habits play a key role in obesity.
  • Sugar loaded sodas feed inflammation and inflammation is the cause of all chronic illness!
  • Phosphorus in soda will WEAKEN YOUR BONES!

Soda Undermines Your Health!

Healthy Diet Plan? 

If you have a soda plan, you can’t really say you have a healthy diet plan, can you?

Loading up on sugar without nutritional value is a recipe for disaster.  Obesity is a deterrent to living an active lifestyle, as is the stimulating effect of caffeine.

The effect caffeine has on your biochemistry is much like borrowing energy like you would borrow money from the bank.

You eventually gotta pay back that borrowed energy.

Maybe that anchor you are dragging around has more to do with your soda, coffee and tea habit than it does age.  You really can’t tell what effect caffeine is having on you until you have been  “clean” for at least 90 days!

When you have with drawl from caffeine, or any other drug for that matter, you can be sure that you are upsetting the normal balance of neuro-chemistry in your brain.

A Healthy Diet Plan is about what you don’t eat as much as it is about what you do!

Seriously!  Dealing with this one health issue can help you avoid osteoporosis, obesity and sedentary lifestyle!

Have you considered a healthy energy drink option?

You might want to give it a money back guaranteed try!

Do Processed Foods Have Any Place In Your Healthy Diet Plan?

Ideal Weight, , , , , , , , ,

What does the term “processed foods” actually mean?

Do visions of t.v. dinners, cookies and chips (or do you call them crisps?) come to mind?

Do you think of canned meats and roasted nuts?

Is bread a processed food, or part of a healthy diet plan?

The term “processed foods”, for all practical purposes, means food that is less wholesome and possibly harmful.

Fruits and veggies become less and less wholesome from the moment they are picked, but are far more wholesome than anything that comes out of a box or can.

Any type of cutting or grinding allows oxidation of the food stuff, and nutrition is lost.

Flour is completely pulverized grains.

Just because your bread is brown, doesn’t mean it is more wholesome!

Eating 100% whole wheat products is a step in the right direction, but you are still eating a grain that has been through a lot since it left the field, and wheat is a common allergen.

Genetic modification takes bread to a new level of processed!

Wheat AND ALL white flour foods are problematic!

Flour Foods

  • breads/muffins (except those of the sprouted variety)
  • pastries/doughnuts
  • cakes
  • pies
  • cookies
  • pasta (GASP!)

 

The foods that are part of the culture that you grow up in become more than just your favorite foods.  They become a connection to the past, comfort foods.

Making healthy diet plan choices is about seeing food from a different perspective!

Process emotional “stuff” and you will eat less junk food!

Unconscious eating (and shopping) isn’t planning for health by any stretch of the imagination.

You don’t want to worry about your food, but planning for health means putting more organic produce in your shopping cart and on your plate.

As The Life Breath Coach I teach that the secret to processing emotions WITHOUT emotional eating is Sacred Breathing.

Are You Nurturing Yourself With Basic Heatlh Related Fitness Components?

If you are NOT covering the basics in health related fitness components, it’s only a matter of time before you suffer the consequences.

Nurture your body, or neglect it and push yourself into an early grave!

Worse yet, your neglect could end up pushing you into a sick bed and your suffering could possibly go on for years and years and years!

Do you have any idea what you need to do to provide yourself with the basics for health building?

Bad habits die hard!

“Hey, I need my vices to get through the week!”

 

If you aren’t suffering… why worry?

Because, when your suffering begins, you will have no choice but to suffer! Continue reading Are You Nurturing Yourself With Basic Heatlh Related Fitness Components? →

Do You Have A Healthy Diet Plan?

Ideal Weight, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
healthy diet plan

Is what you eat healthy?

Are you a junk food junkie, or do you try to eat a healthy, well-balanced diet?

How do you know that what you are eating is actually healthy for you?

Go into your kitchen and look in your refrigerator and pantry.

Do you know what types of things should NOT be there?

Contrary to the lovely television commercials reassuring you that corn syrup is safe….. that is the first thing I recommend that you search for and eliminate from your kitchen.

When you begin searching, you will see that high fructose corn syrup is in everything!

Your body does not even recognize this stuff as a food source and does NOT secrete insulin to digest it when you eat it!

HFCS must be detoxed through your liver because your body is not digesting it.

If you eat enough high fructose corn syrup, you will crave it, BUT it isn’t really food!

Get it out of your kitchen.

Every time you resist health robbing foods, and choose fruits and vegetables instead, you improve your health instead of adding to your distress.

If you eat a diet of highly processed and chemicalized foods, odds are your palate is coated with yeasty build up so that you aren’t enjoying how wonderful Mother Nature’s goodies taste!

Increase your intake of fresh fruits and vegetables and your palate will be washed clean so that you can actually taste the wonderful subtle flavors of natural foods.

Replacing undesirable foods with wholesome foods will play a big role in your healthy diet plan.

What food to you need to stock in your kitchen in order to support a healthy diet plan?

If you remove from your kitchen all of the junk foods that tempt you, and only eat them when you are not at your home…. you will eat far less of these unhealthy foods.

It will be so much easier to choose healthy snacks when they aren’t hidden behind the potato chips and candy.

The good news here is that there are many choices to choose from when stocking healthy foods in your kitchen.

A healthy diet plan is only possible if you plan ahead.

Have you seen the trailer for the new movie?  I stumbled across it on You Tube and began jumping for joy.

At LAST an effort to get the message out!

You are what you eat!

Are you killing yourself with the food choices you make?

Food Matters!

Food Matters is an educational organization based in the UK.

They offer tutorials on every disease process you may be addressing.  Educate yourself so you will not be fooled with misinformation and you will feel confident to resist your doctors urge to drug your symptoms without taking action to address cause.

As the “Life Breath Coach” I recommend that my clients supplement their nutrition while they learn what to put in their shopping cart and what to avoid.

Vemma is my supplement of choice because they have a safe track record even with their weight loss line of products!

I’m hearing awesome testimonials of folks getting OFF of drugs for blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar!

This is GOOD stuff!
