APRIL 2005
Greetings friends,
Spring is here in full
force, and you may need our “Allergena” drops if the spring
trees and grasses bother you. “Allergena” is made by geographic
zones for 8 different American markets, and we carry Zone 5 for
Texas trees, weeds and grasses. We also have just Oak Drops if
oak is your main spring allergen.
My new favorite website is
www.wilderness family naturals. This is a family-run business
with an amazing amount of natural foods – everything from
Philippine coconut oil (which we are now carrying) to dried
vegetables to soaked and dehydrated nuts and seeds the way one
of our favorite books, Nourishing Traditions, tells us to do
them. You can easily spend 3 or 4 hours on their web site
reading about foods, products and their uses. If you can, try
their Palm Oil – an amazing vitamin rich, bright red oil for
cooking, used by millions of people around the world.
If you have not gotten used
to the taste of our Premier Coconut Oil, try the new, milder
Philippine oil that we buy from Wilderness Family Naturals. It
does not muscle test quite as well as Premier Coconut Oil, but
it tastes sweeter and is still extremely good for you. Remember
that coconut oil seems to bypass most of the digestive system,
making it easy for those of us with poor gallbladder function to
absorb it. I think it just passes through the stomach wall
directly into the bloodstream.
There are always new
foods and new supplements to try. I am continually amazed by
the amount of new therapies being introduced by my favorite
companies as well as new ones. I will pass them on to you when
I feel confident about them.
Take care,
Beverly
NEWS & NOTES
I know that many of you are
enjoying our “Cellerciser” soft-bounce exercise rebounder! I
continue to create new ways to use mine while protecting old
areas of injury. Last night I sat on it, leaned back, and
slowly (and repeatedly) brought my knees up to my chest one at a
time. I also march in place when I don’t feel like bouncing.
Come try the one in the office anytime – it costs $365, and will
give you safe, soft-bounce whole body exercise that is easy and
fun to do.
Another terrific new
product in stock is Eon Structured Water Concentrate. This
formula allows water molecules to group together in six-sided
structures (a hexagon). When we are born, our body water is
composed of hexagonally structured water, and this structure is
found in all fruits and vegetables as well. Tap water,
distilled water, and even spring water are clustered differently
and are often incoherently jumbled. The body has to expend
energy to reorganize the H2O molecules to better absorb the
water into our cells.
Hexagonal water structures
increase cellular water absorption by 2 to 3 times, increasing
cellular energy and enhancing cell nutrition and
detoxification. Water lubricates our joints and discs, so this
may also help pain and stiffness. Many people notice they can
drink structured water without feeling bloated, a common
problem.
Overall, you will need
less water than before and be better hydrated. A
bottle of concentrate costs $35 and will restructure 5 gallons
of water. I prefer to save a little money and just add ½
teaspoon to10 ounces of water a few times daily. Drinking even 2
to 3 glasses of structured water daily may make fundamental
differences in your body. Try some soon...
REDUCED PRICES ON METABOLIC
TESTS & LASER ALLERGY SESSIONS
Many of you have benefited
from two of our most valuable offerings – Laser Allergy
Treatments, and, Metabolic Diet Typing. I have personally found
these to be among the best work I have ever done in my ongoing
attempts to restore my health. And now we offer them at a lower
price!
Many of you don’t know
about the treatments we do using a “cold” laser. This $8000
hand-held laser is used to treat acupuncture points on the body
as well as specific areas of pain or congestion. I recently
used its concentrated red laser light every few hours or so for
a 5 day attack of shingles. It really helped the pain, and the
attack was, I believe, significantly shortened in duration.
The more common use of this
laser in my office is to do desensitization treatments to
pollen, animal dander, viruses, mercury, foods, vitamins,
chemicals, pesticides, bacteria, molds, etc.
Have you ever heard of NAET?
This stands for Nambudripod’s Allergy Elimination Technique.
Dr. Nambudripod is a doctor in India who discovered she could do
allergy treatments with acupuncture and acupressure. Eventually,
someone figured out to use the concentrated laser light to treat
the acupuncture points instead of needles.
We offer laser
desensitization sessions as a one-time treatment to help with
pollen allergies, but the best way to utilize this amazing tool
is to do several series of ten treatments. I have personally
done over 70 treatments and always benefit from them. If I am
wired up, they calm my nervous system down. If I am sick or
tired they restore me. I don’t get sick from pollens like I
used to, and I have made great strides against the Epstein Barr
Virus that caused my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
One laser allergy session
treats 3 to 10 items - as many as your body muscle tests to do.
Each session currently costs $50. WE WILL NOW OFFER SINGLE
SESSIONS FOR $40, “BUY 6 – GET 1 FREE” PACKAGES FOR $240 AND
“BUY 10 – GET 2 FREE” PACKAGES FOR $400. This is a 20%
reduction on an already great price for a therapy that usually
costs $75 to $100 per session.
I want as many of you as
possible to benefit from this technology, so I don’t want price
to be a factor. (Those of you with current laser packages will
receive a free session or two to reward you for your commitment
to desensitization.)
I ALSO WILL LOWER THE
PRICE ON THE METABOLIC DIET TYPING TEST FROM $50 TO $35.
This test is taken on your own computer, and will tell us
specific information on the best and worst meats, vegetables and
fats for your metabolism. My chronic insomnia cleared up
with the subtle but powerful changes in my diet when I took the
test 6 months ago. In addition to telling me to eat more red
and dark meat and fewer vegetables, my Type needs significantly
more healthy fats than I was getting. Every client I have ever
had should do this test!!
Call us for more
information on these two life-changing tools. You deserve it!
SOME THOUGHTS ON FOOD
Speaking of your Metabolic
Type, I have found that about 60% of those I have tested are
what Dr. Mercola calls “Protein Types” in his wonderful book
“Total Health”. His recipes are coded for the different
Metabolic Types, including Protein Types, Mixed Types and Carb
Types. (There are actually 6 different Metabolic Type Diets,
but they can be reduced to 3 for recipe purposes). Anyway,
“Protein Types” do well with dark meats and richer fats, and
sardines are one of our recommended foods.
Having never eaten a
sardine before, I worried they would be totally inedible. To my
surprise I find I like them, and eat them 1 or 2 times weekly.
I caution you to only buy water-packed sardines, as the oils
used in oil-packed types are not extra-virgin or cold-pressed.
I add a little olive oil to mine, especially the delicious “O”
brand which contains a bit of lemon or lime juice in with the
oil (available at Whole Foods). Since sardines are sold packed
in mustard also, you might try adding some good quality mustard
to your water-packed sardines, or a bit of tomato sauce. These
make a great snack…
On a different note, a
common question I hear in my office is “What foods contain
carbohydrates?” I basically teach that there are only 3 types
of foods – proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Proteins come
primarily from anything that walks, flies, swims or wiggles!
Fish, meat, dairy, poultry and eggs are proteins. Fats are
found in all protein foods, and can also be extracted from
certain plants as well (coconuts and olives, for example). Nuts
and seeds are the only food containing a generous amount of
protein, fats and carbs, so they are listed under all 3
categories.
Carbohydrates come from
plants. Complex carbohydrates such as beans and whole grains do
contain a little protein, but these are not complete proteins
such as those found in animal foods. Soy is not the healthy
food we have been told by the soy industry, so I prefer my
clients to stop eating this particular carbohydrate.
The list of carbohydrate
dominant foods is huge. Here is a list, written in order of
preferred carbs first: vegetables (low starch); vegetables
(high starch); well-soaked or sprouted beans and lentils; low
starch fruits (northern fruits like berries, apples, pears,
cherries); high starch fruits (tropical fruits such as bananas,
pineapple); whole grains such as well-soaked brown rice or
sprouted whole-grain bread; organic juice; refined grains
(pasta, most breads, most cereals, cookies, etc.); sugars;
alcohols.
Most people forget that
their weekly intake of alcohol, sodas, breads, cereals, juice,
desserts, fruit and beans can really add up to a lot of
carbohydrates. And then, add those healthy vegetables in
addition! The body will store excess carbs as fat – both fat on
the body, as well as blood fats like triglycerides. Weight loss
and cholesterol reduction will be much easier with a
reduced-carbohydrate diet.
I personally get my carbs
only from the low starch vegetables. I eat little or none of
any of the rest as excess carbohydrates can also cause blood
sugar “crashes”, insomnia and mood swings. Try to limit your
carbohydrate intake from all sources to 30 or 50% of your
calories (depending on your Metabolic Type), and eat the rest
from proteins and fats. Bon apetite!
20% OFF DREAMOUS SKIN CARE
PRODUCTS!
Every year I put our
wonderful line of Dreamous Skin Care products on sale, mostly to
introduce all the new clients to these great items.
In my desire to avoid
putting toxic chemicals on my skin (which the liver has to
detoxify), I searched a long time for a skin care line that was
complete, effective, and contained truly all-natural
ingredients. The line we carry contains homeopathic minerals,
purified water, and cold-pressed oils.
If you examine most
cosmetics products, you will see lots of manmade chemicals and
long, unpronounceable words. I feel it’s just as important to
“eat” natural ingredients through the skin as it is to eat them
through the mouth! I don’t want any of you to eat hydrogenated
oils in your food – why would I want you to “eat” them through
the skin?
I love that our Dreamous
Skin Care line contains only cold-pressed oils. They won’t clog
the pores, and they seem to nourish my skin beautifully.
Dreamous makes a nice Facial Cleanser, Moisturizer, Eye Gel,
light Glycolic Rejuvenator, Scrub, Mask, and a Therapy Serum for
damaged skin. I also use their Scalp Treatment as a light hair
gel.
The entire line is useful
and is very reasonably priced. Consider feeding your skin some
great food this spring!
