The Secrets of Regaining Your Vision ... Naturally
http://www.mercola.com/products/natural_vision_cd/index.htm

Bates Method ... The practically-secret natural vision program of pioneering medical doctor and ophthalmologist Dr. William Bates, who died back in 1931.
Here is a general tenet of the Bates Method: effort and willpower don't work. Eye "exercises" will lead you further down the path of strain -- the exact opposite of the direction you need to go to achieve true vision improvement. What your eyes really need is to re-learn how to let go, to relax ... to reclaim the perfect unstrained vision you had as a young child.
6-CD Training Set (6 MP3 file set also available), 7 hours
US $149.00 includes e-book.
(over 2000 copies sold at $379, for now I am able to offer it at over 60% off!)

..., Lactobacillus sporogenes has been discovered to produce the beneficial L (+) lactic acid that corrects these problems -- as distinguished from D (-) lactic acid which induces metabolic acidosis. Also known as Bacillus coagulans, it is a friendly bacteria -- one that belongs in our bodies.

Unlike other lactobacilli, L-sporogenes is a spore, wrapped in a protective coat. Spores are like plant seeds -- they can stay alive for years, and when conditions are optimal for growth, they open up and become a new plant.

Taken orally, the spores' protective coat helps them survive stomach acidity.* They are activated due to the low pH, mechanical churning of the stomach and water in the gastric environment.

As they absorb water, they swell and move faster, propelling them into the small intestine, where they germinate, proliferate and multiply rapidly into viable bacilli to persist in their beneficial life activities.

In the intestinal tract, they continue their metabolic activities, producing lactic acid to assist in digestion and absorption of vitamins and minerals.* In turn, the lactic acid levels on the inner surface of the intestinal tract maintain a micro-ecological balance in the GI tract.*

Who Else Wants Another Simple Smart Step to
Promote Weight Loss?

http://www.mercola.com/products/fucothin
Order page online: $29.97 to $47.56 combos

Unfortunately, as you age you tend to burn calories more slowly.

Your metabolism tends to slow about 5% for each decade after age 40. As you get older, you lose muscle and gain body fat. Since your muscle mass is more active than your fat tissue, when you lose muscle mass your metabolism slows down.

For men, this is less of an issue than for women.
Since men generally have more lean muscle mass than women, they have a higher metabolic rate. In fact, their metabolic rate tends to be ten to fifteen percent higher than women's. ...

Living Seas fücoTHIN™ by Garden of Life is:

*Naturally thermogenic

*Convenient non-stimulant
-- Unlike ephedra, fücoTHIN™ does not stimulate the central nervous system, so it can be taken any time of day without causing jitters or sleeplessness.* You can live your normal schedule. ...

Body fat loss was 11.8 pounds in the fucoxanthin group compared to just 2.8 pounds in the placebo group.* ...

fücoTHIN™ supports metabolism of white adipose tissue (WAT) such as belly fat, without stimulating the central nervous system. ..

Whey Healthier Protein Mix
http://www.mercola.com/forms/whey_healthier.htm

Guided to this meal replacement as a good source of all nutrients with xylitol and steavia being used rather than synthetic or raw sugar --- for a cost of about 2.50 per serving with 18 servings per jar. Strawberry is the best choice for ingredients.

Would be best to stock a 9 jar supply for emergencies and Liliana'a trip to Ontario.



Kangen machines ...
from Miles, Profile, Alberta, Canada ... last july I was introduced to a machine that alkalizes the water up to a ph of 12 - 14 plus, this would be diffucult to drink but excellant for cooking food and teas in. daily drinking water of ph 8 - 10 is what most people would drink and this is the ph balance most would need to keep their body alkaline. I did tons of research on these machines prior to purchasing one, best investment i have made in ages. Because of my health problems i was looking for some answers.

As I had a problem with an over acid body, all the supplements and foods I was eating to try to correct this just did not do it. The water coming from this machine does. it also super oxygenates the water and splits the h20 molecule so it penetrates the cells easier. It also produces an acid stream for disinfecting and washing all your fruits and veggies to kill any bacteria's. I was so impressed with what it was doing for me and my family i signed up as a dealer. everything tastes better when cooking with ph balanced water. the taste is fantastic, and when I saw all the fungi and garbage that came off of our foods when washing in acid water it really surprised me.

It also filters out all the ecoli's, chorines, pesticides, etc, everything bad and leaves all the good minerals in. Mine also has a calcium port that you can add extra calcium to the water to super ph it. Best investment we have made for drinking water. You really notice the health benefits and changes after about 3 months of useage, it slowly detoxes the body as you are drinking the water. For us, and myself , I cant say enough about what we feel it is doing for us. We are saving in the cost of a lot of supplements and extra's we used to purchase to detoxify our bodies. Now the water is doing most of it. and yes they have been in use in Japan and korea for many years with amasing results.

    Skin Care Precautions
    http://products.mercola.com/natural-body-butter/

      AVOID ...

    1. Mineral Oil, Paraffin, and Petrolatum
      – Petroleum products that coat the skin like plastic, clogging pores and creating a build-up of toxins, which in turn accumulate and can lead to dermatologic issues. Slows cellular development, which can cause you to show earlier signs of aging. Suspected cause of cancer. Disruptive of hormonal activity. By the way, when there’s an oil spill in the ocean, don’t they rush to clean it up – fast? Why put that stuff on your skin?

    2. Parabens
      – Widely used as preservatives in the cosmetic industry (including moisturizers). An estimated 13,200 cosmetic and skin care products contain parabens. Studies implicate their connection with cancer. They have hormone-disrupting qualities – mimicking estrogen – and interfere with the body’s endocrine system.

    3. Phenol carbolic acid
      – Found in many lotions and skin creams. Can cause circulatory collapse, paralysis, convulsions, coma and even death from respiratory failure.

    4. Propylene glycol
      – Used as a moisturizer in cosmetics and as a carrier in fragrance oils. Shown to cause dermatitis, kidney or liver abnormalities, and may inhibit skin cell growth or cause skin irritation.

    5. Acrylamide
      – Found in many hand and face creams. Linked to mammary tumors in lab research.

    6. Sodium laurel or lauryl sulfate (SLS),
      also known as sodium laureth sulfate (SLES)– Found in car washes, engine degreasers, garage floor cleaners… and in over 90% of personal care products! SLS breaks down the skin’s moisture barrier, easily penetrates the skin, and allows other chemicals to easily penetrate. Combined with other chemicals, SLS becomes a “nitrosamine”, a potent class of carcinogen. It can also cause hair loss. SLES is sometimes disguised with the labeling “comes from coconut” or “coconut-derived”.

    7. Toluene
      – Poison! Danger! Harmful or fatal if swallowed! Harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Made from petroleum or coal tar, and found in most synthetic fragrances. Chronic exposure linked to anemia, lowered blood cell count, liver or kidney damage, and may affect a developing fetus. Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) contains toluene. Other names may include benzoic and benzyl.

    8. Dioxane
      – Found in compounds known as PEG, Polysorbates, Laureth, ethoxylated alcohols. Common in a wide range of personal care products. The compounds are usually contaminated with high concentrations of highly volatile 1,4-dioxane, easily absorbed through the skin.

      Dioxane’s carcinogenicity was first reported in 1965 and later confirmed in studies including one from the National Cancer Institute in 1978. Nasal passages and liver are the most vulnerable. Dioxane is easily removed during the manufacturing process by “vacuum stripping”. ...

    How You Can Keep Your Digestive and
    Immune System Happy and Healthy.

    http://products.mercola.com/probiotics/?source=nl

    Limited Time Special Offer!
    Expires September 16, 2008

    For a limited time only, get FREE SHIPPING & HANDLING on your ENTIRE ORDER* when you order a 3-pack of New and Improved Complete Probiotics.

    .. This product took me over 15 years of painstaking investigation to find. I spent hours pouring over the latest research and newest studies to be sure I had what I felt to be the best formula anywhere.

    And this Amazing Probiotic Formula Delivered...

    In fact, it's one of the few supplements that I take every day.
    I even carry a bottle with me when I travel out of the country.

    Digestive SystemProbiotics are important.
    They're one of the few supplements I believe can benefit nearly anyone.*
    Unfortunately, they are also one of the trickiest of all supplements to recommend.

    In the last fifteen years, I‘ve evaluated nearly 20 different brands of probiotics, and new research constantly updates my thinking in this area.

    This is due mainly to the numerous potential bacterial strains that can be included in the formula. Manufacturing and the delivery of the organisms to the digestive system are also important. ..

    Fermented foods are part of nearly every traditional culture.
    As far back as Roman times, people ate sauerkraut because of its taste and benefits to overall health. In ancient Indian society, it became commonplace (and still is) to enjoy a before-dinner yogurt drink called a lassi. At the end of the meal, they'd have a small serving of curd.

    These Indian traditions were based on the principle of using sour milk as a probiotic delivery system to the body.

    Other examples are all around us. Bulgarians are known both for their longevity and their high consumption of fermented milk and kefir. In Asian cultures, pickled fermentations of cabbage, turnips, eggplant, cucumbers, onions, squash and carrots still exist today. ...

    1. About 80% of your immune system lives in your gastrointestinal tract.
    2. 500 different species of bacteria live inside you.
    3. About one hundred trillion bacteria live inside you
    ---- more than TEN TIMES the number of cells you have in your whole body.
    4. The weight of these bacteria is about two to three pounds.
    5. Some of these bacteria are referred to as "good", but others do not provide any benefit. The ideal balance between them is 85% good, 15% "other".

    This ratio between the "good" bacteria and the other bacteria becomes one of the critical factors determining your optimal health.* ..

    This remarkable formulation brings together two of the most well known probiotics -- Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium -- species that are known to work together to maintain a balance of "good" bacteria along your digestive tract.*

      Unlike other probiotics you may have seen, each and every jam-packed capsule of New and Improved Complete Probiotics brings you...

    1. Bifidobacterium lactis:
      a friendly bacteria often found in yogurt that is known to help stimulate immune responses.*

    2. Lactobacillus acidophilus:
      --- guards the health of your entire digestive tract.*

    3. Bifidobacterium longum:
      keeps your digestive system running smoothly, and helps enhance your immune system.*

    4. Bifidobacterium bifidum:
      helps promote a healthy balance of flora in your intestine.
      * What's more, this organism is especially helpful for enhancing immune response.*

    5. Lactobacillus casei:
      works with other helpful organisms, and helps to encourage the growth of other "good" bacteria.*

    6. Lactobacillus plantarum:
      helps to ensure that the nutrients in vitamins and supplements are getting to your cells.*

    Add to this a friendly trio of good bacteria blended in the proprietary Kyo-Dophilus® blend. These specially-cultured organisms are at home in your digestive tract, able to survive hostile stomach acid and settle right in to begin promoting healthy intestinal function.*

    NOTE: from a-virus-report-brief.htm
    Avail at: http://www.keephopealive.org/report18.html

    L-Casei and L. Plantarum -
    Lactobacillus that promote IL-12 and IFN-gamma.

    L. Plantarum - potent inducer of IL-12
    L. Casei - induces IL-12, IL-2 & IFN-gamma - suppresses IL(4,5,6 and 10) anti(viral & bacterial), anti-cancer effects.
    L-Casei vs. Cytomegalovirus (CMV).

    L. Casei and Bifidobacterium animalis (B animalis) significantly reduced candida albican colonization in the intestines ...

    .. streptococcus thermophilus .. promote Th2 cytokines.

    Bifidobacterium longum increases IgA supports mucosal immunity.

    (Bacillus Subtilis and Bacillus Lichenformis) inactivate HIV, SIV and other lipid envelope viruses, along with mycoplasmas, fungus and bacteria by producing “surfactin” a lipopeptide antibiotic.

    By taking these easy-to-swallow capsules with food as directed, you'll ensure the live organisms will find themselves in a less hostile environment (with a pH of 3 to 4), that makes it far more likely that they survive and reach their destination.*

    Once they arrive, this remarkable probiotic formula goes one step further to ensure the multiple strains of good bacteria survive.

    By including NutraFlora® short chain FOS, good bacteria are nourished and supported while they settle into your digestive tract and begin working for you.* (Basically, the FOS formula provides "food" for the probiotics.) ...

    The product does NOT need refrigeration, making it convenient to take anywhere.

    This formula is manufactured to prevent heat, air and moisture from having an effect on the organisms. ..

    1. Supports production of B vitamins, especially folic acid and biotin, and vitamin K*

    2. Promotes mineral absorption*
      • Supports protein and carbohydrate digestion via probiotic enzymes*
      • Aids in metabolism and the breakdown of toxins*
      • Helps maintain appropriate bowel transit time*

    Since the chia seeds we used occasionally became lodged between the teeth, we've now replaced them with ground flaxseed -- to eliminate this mild potential annoyance.

    Chia seeds are highly nutritious, but all-natural flaxseeds are also quite remarkable... and provide you with many health-promoting benefits: ...

    You won't find any gluten, which is a highly allergenic substance for many people with sensitivities.

    Instead, you'll find natural cassava flour in our bars. Cassava, or manioc root, is an edible starch and a major source of carbohydrates. Cassava has been used as a major staple food for many South American tribes, since Pre-Columbian times.

    Besides being less allergenic, cassava flour is also much more nutritious than wheat flour, ...

    You won't find problematic soy proteins.
    Most food and energy bars contain soy proteins. And today's cheap soy protein, much of which can be waste products of the soy oil industry, is often over-processed with high heat that destroys the inherent nutritional value of the protein and can produce toxins, such as nitrates and monosodium glutamate (MSG).

    That's why we use Proserum®, the highest quality native whey protein.
    The tiny bit of soy that we do use, soy lecithin, is from organic non-genetically modified soy. ...

    Chocolate has been shown to be relatively high in antioxidants, which fight free radicals that damage body tissues*. And dark chocolate not only contains these high antioxidants, but the polyphenols in dark chocolate may also support good blood pressure health and insulin health*. ..

    In India, the Tulsi herb has been widely known for its health-promoting properties -- for body, mind, and spirit for over 5000 years.

    Commonly called "sacred" or "holy basil," Tulsi is a principle herb of Ayurveda, India's ancient holistic health system.

    In 1997, a ... group of people convinced of the value of organic farming and processing began working with local farmers to help solve the over-farming issue. ... in Azamgarth, India, ... one small farmer, Kailash Singh, in the small northern Indian village of Azamgarth, decided to take a chance on his small 3-acre farm and go organic. He started the first organic Tulsi farm. .. With time, more local farmers joined Singh, eventually expanding the Tulsi organic process to over 10,000 acres.

    The essential oils in Tulsi leaves are a particularly rich source of these phytochemicals.

    Insight & Focus Audio CDs!, $19.95 - $47.95
    http://products.mercola.com/insight-focus/

    The Insight audio CD, which I personally listen to and now recommend to my patients. As you will read in more detail below, this is an exceptional tool to help you dramatically reduce the stress that is a prime contributor to all forms of disease while maximizing your awareness and potential for growth. If you are committed to preventing or overcoming any form of illness and optimizing your health, I strongly urge you to consider making the Insight CD a part of your regular health regime.

    The Focus 2-CD set, meanwhile, also comes with my highest recommendation, as it is an extraordinary audio technology that will help you improve your levels of concentration and clarity, and increase your memory, creativity and problem-solving skills. Whether you are seeking to increase your chances for top success at work or school, to more effectively organize your life, to enhance your creative output - or expand your mental functioning for any reason - the answer is yes, an audio program can really help you, and I have experienced none that are as effective as the Focus CDs.

    ...

    I am a major fan of brainwave entrainment technology, and was at first excited to use the Holosync system for the last two years. Holosync is a fine program that has helped many tens of thousands of individuals. However, since recommending that system I have much feedback about it from patients and newsletter subscribers.

    Although the Holosync program is clearly effective it has two major problems: first, it costs considerably more than it needs to, and second, it takes too long to achieve the benefits.

    Earlier this year I lectured in Toronto where one of the attendees first introduced me to the Insight CD, which competes with Holosync. I was pleasantly surprised at its low price, but even more important, I was amazed at its effectiveness, and I know you will be too.

    The one major difference for most people between Insight and Holosync will be the price. The first level of Holosync costs $159, while the Insight CD -- which contains everything you need on the one disc -- is just $34.95. With Holosync, there are actually 13 different levels, so it is possible to spend over $1000 with all those subsequent levels. The Insight CD uses a different technology described below that allows you to get all of the benefits immediately without having to go to different and progressively deeper levels. ..

    The Insight and Focus Audio CDs introduce the soothing sound of rain with an unrivaled harmonically layered combination of frequencies and binaural beats to your brain, seamlessly inducing amazingly powerful states of focused concentration or deep relaxing meditation while stimulating various parts of your brain to work together. While other companies are offering recordings using only a single pair of binaural frequencies in order to induce the desired effect, this audio technology uses multiple harmonically layered frequencies to induce natural brainwave patterns.

    The frequencies found in these CDs are recorded in multiple separate layers and blended together to form the most powerful combinations possible. The harmonic layering of the binaural frequencies allows you to listen to much deeper carrier frequencies without having to spend as much time easing yourself into using them.

    Listeners begin using very deep frequencies right from the start, triggering the same type of neural growth and development found in many of the progressive programs, but listeners are able to continue achieving ongoing results using one CD rather than having to purchasing multiple levels. Your brain reaches extraordinary levels of consciousness not normally attainable without years of practice!

    Another key reason I stopped with Holosync and have adopted the Insight program is that I could not carve a full hour of my time out to do Holosync. This also seems to be the case for many of my patients. The Insight CD is actually set up so you can do a 20 minute quick session that gets you most all of the benefits. Most people, including me, can carve out 20 minutes. However, the CD is also set up so you can do a 40 or 60 minute session. ...

    By listening to the Insight CD and the Focus 2-Disc Set, you can literally train your brain to function at a high level of synchronization, opening up the way for a flood of positive effects. When left and right sides of your brain begin to work in concert with each other, electrical activity and energy patterns in your brain become more widespread throughout the brain instead of remaining confined to certain areas. Research has indicated this type of "whole brain synchronization" is present in the brain at times of intense creativity, clarity and inspiration.

    So relaxing, the Insight CD is even used by massage therapists and Reiki practitioners to soothe and relax their clients. Meanwhile, those who routinely make prayer a part of their life have also reported an enhanced experience in doing so with the Insight CD. ...

    The CD is composed of three separate tracks, each 24 minutes long. You may listen to only one track each day, for a 24-minute listening experience, or listen to multiple tracks for a longer experience. How long you choose to listen each day is completely up to you. The only requirement is that you listen using stereo headphones via your stereo, a portable CD player, or even your computer's CD-ROM drive. The choice is yours.

    2008-11-04 ... as a special offer, if you want to try both the Insight CD -- an exceptional tool to help you dramatically reduce the stress that is a prime contributor to all forms of disease - and the Focus 2-CD Set - to help you improve your levels of concentration and clarity, and increase your memory, creativity and problem-solving skills -- you'll save $7.00 by paying just $47.95 for both.
