Kyolic - Feel Great, Smell Nice Too

Fri, 25 May 2012 22:24:41 -0400

I recently started taking this. Here are some initial findings:

Reduced hangover recovery time by about 5-10 hours (certain symptoms resolved before others) this factors in other things as well like increased water intake to solve dehydration
Higher energy levels along with more mental clarity and greater psychological sense of well being
Obviously enhanced circulation which this herb is best known for
Lower craving for sugary foods/beverages
Increased digestion capacity, helps restore gut flora balance more quickly when taken along with probiotic…also helps bloating
Appears to burn some superficial adiopose deposits that have accumulated as a result of recent excess beer drinking

For those who are concerned with either your breath or body odor smelling like Garlic…I promise you, my co-workers and females I have interacted with have no complaints :)

Eat the Rainbow for Balanced Nutrition - Daily Tips | Swanson Health Products:

The next time you sit down for a meal, check out the color of your plate. Not only does a mixture of colorful foods look appealing, you get more nutrients by eating fruits and vegetables that come in different hues.

Red

Because they deliver melatonin, eat cherries before bed to improve sleep patterns.
Red Bell Peppers feature lutein, a compound that promotes healthy vision.
Lycopene gives tomatoes their signature red color and is an antioxidant that promotes prostate health.

Orange

Carrots deliver vitamin A, which promotes vision. Carrots also support heart health.
Give your immune system a boost with vitamin-C-rich cantaloupe.
Sweet potatoes also have vitamin A, which helps with vision and skin health.

Yellow

Corn is rich in beta-cryptoxanthin which helps maintain healthy lungs.
Tropical pineapple delivers manganese, and essential nutrient that supports metabolism and defends against free radicals. The enzyme bromelain, also found in pineapple, aids digestion.
Potassium-rich bananas promote cardiovascular health and help maintain healthy blood pressure.

Green

Compounds in broccoli support healthy skin.
Spinach features vitamin K, a nutrient that helps calcium bond to bones and slows cell breakdown.
Citrus limes are high in vitamin C, which helps strengthen the immune system.

Blue & Purple

Add purple cabbage into your salad – it has more vitamin C and antioxidant than its green cousin.
Blueberries are one of the favorite “superfoods” that feature antioxidants and promote brain health.
A natural cleanser, beets help flush toxins out of the body.

10 Natural Foods That Won’t Break Your Budget - Daily Tips | Swanson Health Products

Mon, 11 Jul 2011 15:32:00 -0400

10 Natural Foods That Won’t Break Your Budget - Daily Tips | Swanson Health Products:

Peanut Butter: This popular pantry item offers protein and heart-healthy unsaturated fats. Use organic peanut butter in snacks, sandwiches, sauces, dips and baked goods.
Oatmeal: This grain helps lower LDL (bad) cholesterol. Use in baked goods, breakfast and to stretch ground meat dishes.
Eggs: Eggs are a good source of lean protein, and also contain vitamin B12, riboflavin and phosphorus. Use them in omelets, frittatas and salads.
Apple: This fruit is a good source of vitamin C and is full of both soluble and insoluble fiber. Eat as a snack or use in salads and baked goods.
Sweet Potatoes: These fiber-filled spuds are very filling and a source of vitamins A and B6. Use them in both main and side dishes.
Frozen Vegetables: They provide fiber and an array of nutrients, depending on which veggies you buy. Use them in side dishes and casseroles.
Beans: This tasty staple provides lean protein that’s full of fiber, calcium, folic acid and iron and other minerals. Use in salads and stews, veggie burgers, as side dishes, and even in healthy desserts!
Brown Rice: Brown rice is a whole grain and a source of vitamin B6, magnesium, copper, zinc and manganese. Use it in soups, salads and side dishes.
Canned Tuna: This fish is a healthful lean protein and contains omega-3 fatty acids. Use it in sandwiches, casseroles and salads.
Spinach: This leafy green is loaded with vitamins A, C, K and folic acid, as well as manganese. Use it in salads, pasta dishes, casseroles, soups and stews.

This is for all those folks who use price as an excuse not to eat healthy. You can get these items at ANY grocery store for cheap and they keep you satiated for much longer than processed meals due to the high nutritional content. When you tally up your monthly food bill this will be cheaper than McDonalds or Takeout. Guaranteed.

Enough excuses already America. Your waistline can’t afford it.

This has been resumed for the time being after a ~2 year...

Sun, 10 Jul 2011 18:22:00 -0400

This has been resumed for the time being after a ~2 year hiatus.

The intended use will be to restore lost stamina after lengthy exposure to high temperatures as well as other issues that may occur in the body as a result of excessive heat in this time of the year.

Current condition:

Somewhat rested (2 hours after 4 hours of moderate activity)
Moderately hydrated
Good circulation level

Tips for best usage/efficacy: Use either 30 minutes before activity or 2 hours after (and 30 minutes before the next activity period) Make sure you are adequately hydrated to prevent your system from absorbing it too quickly or too slowly. Take 30 minutes to one hour after waking when circulation improves so that it can be distributed evenly throughout the body. Cycle on/off every 2 weeks if usage exceeds 1 vial per day.

Works best in: Any environment where there are extreme temperatures shifts or rapid changes in humidity.

Vs other forms: This form of Ginseng is considerably superior to the granule, tea or capsule version when it comes to absorption and efficacy. The Glucose extract of Royal Jelly smooths out the effect and lengthens the duration in comparison to it’s other forms. Common complaints for the granule form is lack of potency, the tea form delivers too much energy to the brain and the capsule form can be absorbed too quickly or in some persons: not at all. Above all else it is cost-efficient without sacrificing quality or efficacy.

The Wonders of Chlorella (experienced firsthand): Eliminates...

Mon, 04 Jul 2011 11:51:58 -0400

The Wonders of Chlorella (experienced firsthand):

Eliminates Body Odor Completely (Nature’s internal deodorant)
Detoxifies All Cells in the Body (Progressively over time) by binding to unwanted elements and ushering them out through various excretion methods (perspiration, elimination, etc)
Stabilizes mood, Calms the mind (almost as effective as Melissa/Lemon Balm in this regard), Restores Stamina, Assists the liver and nourishes all vital organs, speeds healing of wounds, cuts, scrapes, bruises and internal damage from alcohol, pharmaceutical drugs or substance abuse

Yaeyama Chlorella is probably one of the best Greens products I have tried. It actually does what it claims to do. Then again I knew it would, I have trusted Jarrow for over 5 years now.

For the past 5 days I have had zero body odor. Then again I never was a big sweater (I have the opposite problem, dry skin). However, people with sweating problems really need to try this. You will still sweat but it won’t smell at all!!! I promise. Maybe if I take this everyday I won’t even have to buy deodorant. It’s the middle of summer so if it works now it’ll definitely work during the winter time.

Aside from the superficial it helps “organize” the bowels and bulks up your stools. So if you have a high fiber diet that tends to make your stools too frequent or liquid then this stuff is a great addition. Once more if you have putrid, oily or smelly bowels then this stuff will clear that right up. The bowels don’t smell at all!!! Also there is very little flatulence! If there is any at all, once again there is no smell. Maybe the dog will stop sniffing your butt now?

Another effect is that I think the Omega-3 EPA content must be really high or just well absorbed? I used to take fish oil for my Asthma but for some reason ever since I’ve taken this I have had even less symptom occurrence than with the fish oil. If I can take this instead of fish oil then that’s killing multiple birds with one stone (Sorry, you guys make too much noise in the mornings anyways). Not to mention that supposedly Chlorella/Spirulina are nature’s multivitamins, I won’t have to buy that either? Great.
