"Honey, I've Grown a Gazillion New Brain Cells!"

an artists rendering of the brain with neurons firing

Our brain is the control center for our entire body and central nervous system. Are you like me and every now and then have a senior moment where you walk into a room and forget what you came in for? Or forget where you left your car keys?

Today’s information-age demands that our brains keep up, processing thoughts, data, statistics galore, even simple things like, where did I leave my car keys?

I recently learned about an amazing natural ingredient from Mother Nature, and you won’t believe how much smarter it can make you. It means you can be smart as a whip, even into your 80’s and 90’s and kiss dementia goodbye! Think about it. More brain cells means more brain power – more MIND POWER.

Taurine joins the smorgasbord of smart ingredients that make our revolutionary Mind Power formula such a Godsend to anyone who thinks a lot, reads, writes or studies, is a computer programmer, has ADHD/ADD, dreams big dreams. More importantly, Mind Power can also aid the body in providing the nourishment needed to combat the crippling diseases of Dementia or worse, Alzheimer’s.

Amazing Ingredient Gives Life to Your Brain

Have you ever wondered where the expression Brain Dead comes from?

It perfectly describes what the lack of Taurine can do to your brain. A little-known amino acid, Taurine can do the seemingly impossible, grow new brain cells in adult brains! It is pure brain food.

Amino acids are the building blocks of all life, especially of protein. You need protein to form new cells and build into actual muscles. This is why bodybuilders and super jocks live on high protein diets and shakes.

What makes Taurine so special? It is brain specific in its actions. It’s the gasoline that powers cells into actual life, enabling them to breed like crazy. It’s vital in slowing key age-accelerating processes, particularly in the central nervous and cardiovascular systems.

You won’t know yourself after using our Mind Power formula with Taurine after just a few days.

Taurine also:

  • Aids in lowering brain cell inflammation
  • Increases the brain’s electrical activity in nerve cells (you start thinking faster!)
  • Fights depression and Parkinson’s Disease
  • Can mimic and duplicate the actions of the neurotransmitter GABA (more support for thinking faster)
  • Supports learning and helps with thinking disabilities and cognitive functions

Taurine Aids Congestive Heart Failure and Metabolic Syndrome Too

Taurine’s powers in cell production in the brain are amazingly duplicated in the heart. People with the lowest levels of Taurine had a 184% increase in the risk of obesity, a 22% increase in the risk of hypertension, and a 120% increase in the risk of elevated cholesterol.

Taurine actually conjucates (merges) blood cholesterol with bile in the liver to transport excess cholesterol out of the body. Taurine supplementation has been found to be extremely effective in reducing risks of kidney disease, diabetes, cancer and insulin resistance – the primary hallmarks of Metabolic Syndrome now sweeping the world.

Taurine will generate benefits to many parts of your body, your heart, and your mind.

Further Tips & Suggestions

  • Combine with our famous Balanced Woman formula for complete hormone balancing.
  • Book: The No-Dairy Breast Cancer Prevention Program by Jane PlantDrink Red Clover Herb tea often, it works wonders on a woman.
  • Get off all dairy, especially cheese and ice cream. Buy a used copy of Jane Plant’s book, The No-Dairy Breast Cancer Prevention Program. It will change everything you think you know about nutrition and cancer.
  • Take 2 Age-Less Anti-Inflammatory capsules about an hour before bed for enhanced sleep and physical recovery. The name gives you a clue as to what it was designed for.
  • Remember to walk every single day for 30-45 minutes. My grandma did and she lived to 99!
  • Avoid Mammograms. Try a Sonogram instead. They are less painful and more accurate, I think. Also, don’t forget your regular pap-smear to check for changes in the cells in your cervix.

Where Does Your Protein Come From?

Protein comes from meat and fish, right?

Most of us get our protein from animals or animal by-products like milk, cheese, and eggs. Is this the best form of protein we can consume? The safest?

Not by a long shot!

Did you know bovine (cow) meat was long considered poor man’s protein? And whey protein, a by-product from making cheese, was sold as pig feed, as it fattens up pigs quickly. Ironically now whey powder is sold as a sports supplement for athletes!

Not surprisingly, animal protein has been proven in innumerable studies to be linked with higher incidence of heart attack, stroke, diabetes and cancer.

Where do the animals we eat get protein? Plants, of course. Plants have protein – and lots of it.

How much protein do we really need? Ten percent is the amount of total dietary intake. And less than 1/3 of this should be from animals.

Unfortunately most of the plant-based foods we do eat are often highly processed, or loaded with dressings like ranch dressing, which is just horrible for us! Processed foods always come loaded with added fat, sugar and salt. No wonder the country is fighting obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer!

Today we highlight our plant-based Protein Plus Superfood 7-in-1 formula. If you are not familiar with this amazing formula, you are in for a delicious treat!


All Proteins are NOT Created Equal

Protein comparison of steak vs. BroccoliYou can source your protein from animals or plants.

The difference in these two sources is staggering.

You don’t have to investigate far to see the results of a diet high in animal-based protein and dairy.

For far too long, people have been “fed” the myth that a vegetarian or vegan cannot get sufficient protein from their plant-based foods.

WRONG! Nothing could be further from the truth!

Pretty much all plant foods have protein! We need to eat foods that supply us with the nine essential amino acids that our bodies cannot make on their own. Some plant-based foods actually contain ALL of them: quinoa, buckwheat, soy, chia and hempseed.

As long as foods like legumes, nuts, seeds, whole grains, fruits and vegetables are consumed daily, you’re getting everything you need and more!

You can get all the protein your body needs from plant-based foods – and now plant-based protein powders!

Sleep, Ahh Glorious Sleep!

What Would You Do for a Good Night’s Sleep?

Billions of dollars are spent every year trying to achieve one of the single, greatest contributors to health and healing – SLEEP.

The pharmaceutical industry wants to give you false, drug-induced sleep, which leads to early morning grogginess that can last all day. In addition, these drugs are proven to be dangerous, while some are being questioned as an underlying reason for Alzheimer’s. No one needs sleep this way!

What is causing a lack of sleep? It can be hormones, adrenal fatigue, even caffeine addiction, but the thing I find most often is toxicity of the body. The good news is that if you rid the body of toxins, you can discover sleep in a whole new way – the way it was meant to be!

I think you’ll enjoy Carolyn’s experience with how she found sleep after 5 years of restless nights with our 14-day Detox Program.

Turmeric – the Magic Inflammation Fighter

Tumeric Image

Natural Anti-Cancer Spice – and so much more!

In my travels years ago in India searching for a cure to my own cancer, I came across an incredible story of the power of certain curries. I was told that if you ate these curries every day, disease would never happen to you, particularly cancer. I took their advice and started eating these curry dishes, as their cancer rates were one-sixth that of America and other parts of the world.

Tumeric has been a staple of Indian cooking for literally thousands of years. I fell in love with it when studying and fighting cancer in northern India nearly 30 years ago.

Now, all this time later, the scientific world has woken up to Tumeric’s powers.

Read on to learn all about this wonderful, magical spice, and the health benefits it contains.

Inflammation: The Root of nearly All Disease

Do you wake up in the morning with pain that seems to be everywhere and just won’t go away?

Have you asked your doctor to help, and they say they cannot find anything wrong?

You are not alone.

What you are experiencing is the secret epidemic of INFLAMMATION. It is highly dangerous and the common denominator in just about every serious disease condition today.

Inflammation has been implicated in a variety of diseases like:

  • heart disease
  • cancer
  • alzheimer’s
  • stiff, aching joints
  • fibromyalgia
  • constant back pain
  • chronic unexplained headaches
  • exhaustion, including chronic fatigue
  • brain fog
  • severe depression
  • lack of libido
  • depression

Inflammation normally is a good thing, enabling our bodies to ward off disease-causing bacteria and viruses, such as when we catch a cold or the flu, or get a splinter in our finger.

The core of this problem is the body’s own over-enthusiasm to protect itself. Whenever stress levels become overwhelming, whether from emotional stress at work, the loss of a job or loved one, financial stress or even over-exertion from exercise, the body triggers a cascade of signals to the immune system which then goes into overdrive to protect itself.

When this continues day in and day out, inflammation explodes and becomes like a forest fire in the blood and tissues. Doctors are baffled in treating it, and drugs don’t ever seem to help their patients – because they don’t get to the root of the problem.

What’s the Answer to Inflammation? Curcumin

Turmeric contains curcumin, a phytochemical with almost endless health benefits.

My Horse has a Thyroid?

Can animals speak to us, telling us what it needs? Indeed, they can.

Horses in particular, communicate via their thyroid gland, which orchestrates their moods, thinking, energy and intelligence.

My dear friend Linda Parelli, co-founder of Parelli Natural Horsemanship came to me for help with her baby, a horse called Allure, inseparable from her but had somehow lost her way.

I saw all the signs of thyroid impairment. Our thyroid repair formulas worked wonders – nearly overnight! Read on to hear Linda’s wonderful testimonial about using natural supplements on her beloved horse.

Visit their website www.parelli.com and learn about the wonderful and ceaseless good these rare souls do every day for the horses of America through their holistic training methods.

People ask me all the time,

“Will your formulas work on animals?”

Yes indeed. We are all mammals and God’s creatures. All of my formulas are created with His knowledge and instruction. Read Linda’s story below and marvel at this wonderful power.

Dear Friends,

Thank you for your interest in and concern for Allure’s well-being. In response to the curiosity you expressed after last week’s post, An Update on Allure, I thought I’d take a few minutes to give you a little more detail on my experience with his health concerns.

When I first got him, I didn’t know he had a thyroid issue, but I can look back on photos now and see the enlarged thyroid gland – it looks like a little golf ball on his gullet right behind his jaw. What I mainly saw was a horse with dry coat, straw colored hair, no shine and some seriously hyper-active behavior. I can’t really remember the moment that I realized it was a thyroid issue, but from that moment on I began to treat him with great results. Interestingly, when I started giving him Parelli Essentials he made huge progress but then I hit a wall again with him and that got me searching. He looked a lot better, his hair had darkened dramatically, but that little lump was still there and his mane was still a bit frizzy.

I followed advice from Wayne Garland who I knew through my sister. They had worked together in advertising many years ago in Sydney. So we had a chat, and I started giving Allure the Detoxified Iodine and Wayne’s two thyroid products –  Thyroid Energy and green capsules called Marine Phyto-Plankton. We started on a regular dose and then increased it according to my reports and Wayne’s recommendations. Within weeks of starting this, the golf-ball-sized lump reduced until I could barely see or feel it.

When I reduced his iodine from 8 to 4 drops it was because I thought he might not need so much anymore. WRONG! But the effects took about a month to show up. First, his color started losing depth. Instead of being that rich liver chestnut, he went a kind of orangey-brown. Then the golf ball lump appeared again, and soon after he started losing weight. By the time I realized what was going on, he looked awful and was starting to get a bit lethargic. I felt terrible about it, and as soon as I put him up to 8 drops again I could see the difference.

About 2 days later, he started looking more alert again. Being winter, he’s never as dark in his coat as summer, but his shine came back and he’s putting on weight again. He’s not 100% yet, but he’s ready for exercise now. And his goiter (thyroid lump) has pretty much gone again.

Yours Naturally,
Linda

“It has been said that Iodine is “the great missing element in all mankind“. It’s also the missing element in all the animal kingdom.

After witnessing what Iodine has done for Linda and her horse Allure, I’ve made it a MUST HAVE in my protocols. You should do the same.

Our Thyroid Repair Kit contains three essential formulas for supporting and nourishing your thyroid gland naturally.

  • Detoxified Iodine – the original Atomidine formulation of the famed Edgar Cayce
  • Thyroid Energy – an entire nutritional “program” for the Thyroid for a healthy, balanced life free of exhaustion
  • Marine Phyto-Plankton – a true “superfood” containing chlorophyll, ocean minerals, 21 vitamins, amino acids, enzymes and essential lipids

No one owns your thyroid, but You!

“I can still hear Dr Kim’s final words in my ear the day I left Korea for America:

“Promise me you will do for one person what I have done for you.”

That was my burning ambition in nutritional healing – to find that one person to help recover from what life can throw at you, and repay that long ago debt.

Then one day a truly wondrous woman came into my life with a plea to help her overcome a serious thyroid condition that the medico’s wanted to treat with a scalpal and high-level radiation. Would she be the one I could bring back and repay Dr Kim’s debt?

Yes, indeed she did come back and spectacularly so! Andrea Billewicz, and her husband Michael, are among my very, very closest of friends.

Sit down, listen to her voice, her instincts, and her beliefs as she fought thyroid impairment – and won.”


Andrea Billewicz’ Miracle Thyroid Story

Andrea Billewicz - Thyroid Cancer SurvivorDuring a routine physical exam in April 2004, my doctor noticed that I had an enlarged thyroid. He sent me to get a sonogram to get a better look and a few days later it showed two nodules or growths; one on each side of my thyroid gland. One was 1.2cm, the other just over twice that size.

I was then scheduled for a biopsy to check for cancerous cells and of course, the “c” word scared the heck out of me!

The results of the biopsy were inconclusive. The pathologist called them “suspicious.” I called my doctor and he said they could be benign follicular nodules or malignant tumors. To be safe, he recommended surgery to remove the growths and part, or possibly all, of my thyroid gland. He said that the only way to find out for sure if they were cancerous was to perform a tissue biopsy after removal.

“But don’t you worry,” my doctor said, “if they are malignant, surgically removing them will 100% cure the thyroid cancer. And if they turn out to be benign, then it’s no big deal. We’ll put you on synthetic hormone replacement medicine for the rest of your life, and you’ll be just fine.”

So, with the support and urging of my husband, I also called Wayne Garland that afternoon. I’d heard him speak for many years about the body’s own healing power and I wanted another option besides surgery. He replied to me immediately, saying “Oh dear, this isn’t good news, is it? But it is very reversible.

I also consulted an endocrinologist for a second medical opinion, and she scared me even more. She viewed the opinion of pathologist that cancer or precancerous cells may be present and requested an additional blood test. From this, she believed I had an 80% chance of having thyroid cancer of some kind.

She recommended IMMEDIATE surgery to remove my entire Thyroid. She then explained that after surgery, they would withhold Synthroid (an artificial form of the thryoid hormone) until I get exhausted and experience hypothyroidism and then give me a radioactive pill in the hospital and put me in an isolation room there for 48 hours afterwards. You’ve got to be kidding me – that’s horrific!

Reversible…

I kept remembering Wayne’s statement: Reversible. It was like a lifeline to me.

I contacted him again and asked for his recommendation. I told him of my fears and my objections to surgery. After our conversation, I made a monumental decision. I canceled the surgery and put myself in Wayne’s care, to see if we could battle this issue with my body’s own arsenal.

My endocrinologist was beside herself when I told her and vociferously reiterated the word “R-I-S-K” over and over again to me. I assured her that I was making an informed choice about my own body, and that it was important to me to try an alternate means to heal myself. “As long as you understand the risk…” I stuck to my guns.

Who (or What) Kidnapped My Thyroid?

What the Heck is a Thyroid Anyway?

Are you one of the thousands, perhaps millions,of individuals (primarily woman over 40) who struggle with a sluggish thyroid?

Have you been told you have Hypothyroidism, or Hyperthyroidism. Or Hashimoto’s Disease or Grave’s Disease. How about thyroid nodules that can be both cancerous and benign?

It can be mind boggling for anyone trying to get to the bottom of whether or not their thyroid is working properly. To make matters worse, most of the time we are dealing with a medical community that just doesn’t understand what the Thyroid is, or why you are having difficulty.

Let me tell you, you are not alone!

Every day we get desperate cries for help from all over the world about thyroid impairment, thyroid exhaustion, thyroid nodules, and yes, thyroid cancer. These issues are the single most-commonly occurring hormonal disturbance in America today.

We have the answers.

Because this has become such a huge issue, we thought it was time to devote some real space in our newsletters to understanding the thyroid.

Let’s start with; What actually IS a thyroid anyway?

The Thyroid – What is it Exactly?

Thyroid Gland ImageThe thyroid is an endocrine gland located in the front of our necks. It stores and produces hormones that affect the function of virtually every organ in our bodies. Thyroid hormones Triiodothyronine or T3 and Thyroxine or T4 regulate our metabolic rate, and is associated with modest changes in body weight and energy levels.

The thyroid is the “master of metabolism” and as such controls body temperature, digestive enzyme synthesis, stomach acid production, calorie burning, fat and protein synthesis and white blood cell activity. It is crucial for menstruation and activity of all reproductive hormones.

An interesting point is that thyroid hormones are created not just in your thyroid, but also in a woman’s ovaries (Diiodothyronine or T2) and in the white blood cells of your bone marrow.

How Does it Work?

Your thyroid gland is controlled by the pituitary gland, a pea-sized gland located at the base of your brain. The pituitary gland keeps checking the amount of thyroid hormone in your blood. Then it tells your thyroid to make more or less hormone so there’s always the right amount.

Your thyroid uses iodine to make thyroid hormone. Iodine comes from food, mainly seafood and dairy products. Iodine was added to table salt in 1924 at the request of the US Government in response to certain regions in the US where the soil was lacking natural iodine, and people in these areas were developing goiters, or swelling of the thyroid gland.

What Can Go Wrong?

The problem begins when we do not eat properly.  Diets high in junk food and heavy meat consumption can often be low in selenium, which assists in iodine production.

Sometimes the thyroid gland doesn’t make enough thyroid hormone, which is called hypothyroidism. When you don’t have enough thyroid hormone, parts of your body work too slowly.

Symptoms of underactive thyroid include:

  • Feeling tired
  • Feeling cold even when other people are comfortable or even warm
  • Having a slow heart rate and dry skin
  • Being constipated
  • Gaining weight even though you’re not eating more or exercising less than usual
  • In children, growing very slowly

Sometimes the thyroid gland makes too much thyroid hormone, which is called hyperthyroidism. Think of your body as a car and your thyroid as the engine. An overactive thyroid makes your body idle too fast.

Symptoms of overactive thyroid gland include:

  • Feeling nervous and irritable
  • Having trouble concentrating
  • Feeling too warm even when other people don’t feel warm
  • Having a fast heart rate and diarrhea
  • Having trouble sleeping
  • Losing weight without trying

Plumber's Secret for Naturally Lowering High Blood Pressure


Keep Your Heart Healthy

In the United States, February is Heart Health Month. It is aptly named, as heart disease is the number one killer in America. High blood pressure is the #1 reason.

If your blood pressure is near 200/100, you are a walking time bomb! The pressure in your arteries and veins builds up and up, until they simply burst.

High blood pressure also leads to a stroke, where blood is blocked from getting to your brain. At this point you are either dead or close to it.

Recovery from a stroke is a long process, as you are unable to talk, think, or move properly. It can often take a year or more of excruciating effort to rewire your brain and regain your lost speech and mobility, along with risky drugs to “thin your blood” in the hopes of keeping another stroke from happening again.

Read on to discover the Plumber’s Secret to Naturally Lowering Blood Pressure. Your heart will thank you!


What Causes this Epidemic of High Blood Pressure?

Sugar.

It sounds so sweet! It is. Sugar has single-handedly caused an epidemic in this country of disease. Our nation’s addiction to sugary sodas, donuts, breads and cakes has caused continually climbing rates of obesity, which, in turn, has played a part in high blood pressure, heart disease, cancer, and ultimately – DEATH.

Everyone wants to blame fatty foods for the ever-increasing levels of obesity and cancer in this country. To some degree they are right. You simply cannot overeat and not expect to become obese. However, the overwhelming proof is that it is sugar that is wreaking havoc on many.

Just look around – our children are becoming obese before they even hit pre-school. Teenagers are carrying weighty “tires” around their mid-sections. Unfortunately, they are following a trend of increased sugar consumption that the generation before them began. It’s a life-time of over-indulgence – all rooted in sugar.

This illustration shows how hopeless the sugar cycle really is. Crave – High – Crash… just like a drug addict. The next “fix” cannot come soon enough. The cycle continues…


Sugar Craving - Rush - Crash Cycle
Some of the things we thought were true, about what causes high blood pressure, may have been wrong. Studies now show that sugar may be worse than salt in creating the perfect environment for high blood pressure! Click Here to read the article.


End the Cycle of “Heart Disease”

Step 1: Clean up Your Diet
Start today to incorporate a plant-strong diet. Begin by removing all dairy. Replace cow’s milk with Almond, Coconut, Cashew or Flax Milk. They’re high in calcium and can start your family toward a healthier outlook on life!

Step 2: Say “No” to Excessive Sugar!
When you have a taste for something sweet – have fruit! It really does satisfy a sweet tooth. Better yet, drink a glass of lemon water. Studies show that many cravings and hunger pangs are often a sign of dehydration!

Step 3: Keep Your Arteries Flowing!
When a water main bursts, during the frigid winter months, what is to be done? Nothing – it’s too late. The only thing that can be done, once they burst, is to replace them. The answer is in preventative care: wrapping the pipes in heat tape and making sure there is adequate air flow around them to keep them warm.

We must treat our arteries with the same preventative care we would our pipes in our homes. Diet, exercise and amazing supplementation is the answer to prevent bursting of your most precious arteries.


Plumber’s Secret for Lowering Blood Pressure

An amazing amino acid called L-Arginine, naturally dilates the diameter of your body’s blood vessels, allowing blood to pump easier throughout your arteries and veins, and your blood pressure falls like a rock!

Even if your blood pressure regularly scores at 200 or more, we have seen customer’s scores plummet to 140’s in just weeks, when incorporated with daily exercise and a heart friendly diet.

L-Arginine is used by the body to create a substance called “Nitric Oxide”, now the hottest thing in the endurance exercise world. Nitric oxide lowers blood pressure, prevents excessive clotting and inflammation associated with coronary artery disease, and protects against heart attack and stroke.

In exercising mice, who received a powdered form of Arginine, the animals experienced a dramatic drop in serum Blood Pressure and a significant regression of their atherosclerotic lesions compared to the other groups. The researchers attribute this to the increased nitric oxide produced by exercise and Arginine.

Recently I decided to take the step of getting rid of my BP drugs. I have cut back by taking Clean Heart, along with other steps to rid myself of “modern, conventional medicine”.

Clean Heart has a wonderful grape flavor, and talk about a reasonable price for your HEALTH! I have also incorporated a vegan way of eating, exercising and stretching, and drinking plenty of pure water, with Life Transfusion Minerals added.

What Prevents Heart Attacks?

The Miracle Mineral that Gets Directly to Your Heart!

There is one gigantic missing element in nearly every single person today, and that is a sufficient amount of Magnesium. This is the miracle mineral I have been talking about for years to anyone who will listen. Without it, your heart stops beating and you go into Cardiac Arrest. It’s just like your car running out of gasoline. Magnesium is the FUEL your heart runs on!

Think about that for a second.

Years ago, after ridding my body of cancer, I started out in the alternative medicine industry, telling the story of high Magnesium liquid minerals at county fairs and farmer’s markets all across the west in California, Utah, Idaho and Colorado.

My passion for healing all stems from the knowledge of what minerals can do to trigger “Contagious Health” – in particular, the effect that adequate amounts of Magnesium has on the heart. Whether you are an Olympic athlete or an elderly individual, you must have Magnesium.

I have been screaming from the rooftops, about the essential requirement of all minerals for years – in particular, Magnesium.

Magnesium Works Miracles in Your Body

“Those who consumed the lowest amounts of Magnesium were almost twice as likely to develop heart disease, compared to those who consumed the highest amounts.”

Source: Honolulu Heart Program, the National Institute for Longevity Science in Japan and the University of Virginia School of Medicine. Dietary records of 7,000 middle-aged men (ages 45-68 years), reviewed over 30 years, showed a clear association between the risk of coronary heart disease and a dietary intake of Magnesium.

Magnesium Doesn’t Stop There!
Magnesium is important in nearly every function and tissue in the body. It supports a healthy immune system, lowers stress, reduces the risk of developing diabetes, ward off depression and migraines.

Magnesium is necessary to convert Calcium so it can be properly absorbed by the body. When Magnesium is deficient, the body “calcifies” from the unused Calcium. This is how hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis) occurs, as the calcification builds up and blocks the artery – all because of a lack of one little mineral.

How Much Magnesium Do We Need?
A lot. Science tell us that we need 600-1200 mg’s throughout the day.
