Nutricleanse

Many health professionals agree that most, if not all, major diseases start in the colon. That's why it's important to do an all natural colon cleanse at least a couple of times each year. As we look back through a half century of Medical History, we find that the so called killer diseases of the day were the result of infectious diseases such as diptheria, measles, polio, tuberculosis, pneumonia, hepatitis and many varieties of chronic sepsis. No longer are these the major health hazards.

The current major killer diseases are noninfectious rather than infectious, with coronary heart disease (CHD), diverticular disease of the colon (DD), large bowel cancer, lung tumors, gallstones, varicose veins, obesity and diabetes listed as today's most troubling health problems.

All of these diseases have been related to diets which are characteristic of economically developed countries. These countries have moved to a diet low in starch and fiber and high in fat, sugar and highly refined foods. As an example, in third world countries, some 70% of the body's energy is provided by starch carbohydrates, food retaining its natural complement of fiber. In these countries, fat provides only 10 -15% of the energy and protein and is mostly of vegetable origin.

In affluent societies, however, a little over 40% of the body's energy is derived from carbohydrates and approximately half of this is from sugar.

Fiber in the diet influences every stage of food consumption and digestion. The removal of fiber from food reduces the necessity for chewing and, thus, increases the rate of energy uptake. The sense of satiety relative to energy consumption is reduced and, along with it, the predisposition to over-nutrition with resultant obesity. The energy from fiberrich foods is absorbed from the bowel more slowly. Some studies have cited this reduced rate of energy absorption as a protection against diabetes.

Fiber plays its greatest role and influence in the large bowel where it helps the onward propulsion and final elimination of bowel content. According to some medical experts, it provides protection against certain gastro-intestinal diseases by its ability to increase the bulk and maintain the softness of colon content.

Depending on the source of fiber, this is achieved by holding water in the lumen of the gut or increasing the bacteria mass which constitutes a major portion of the stool bulk. The average stool output in third world countries is three times that of western affluent countries (300-500 grams as compared to 80 - 120 grams).

A deficiency of fiber in the diet is the major cause of constipation, increased stool weight and shortening of intestinal transit time. It has been shown that fiber alters fecal pH and influences the metabolism of both cholesterol and bile acids, which have been implemented in the cause of both gall stones and Coronary Heart Disease (CHD).

Some specific diseases related to dietary fiber deficiency include diseases attributed in part to reduced volume and increased viscosity of large bowel content.

Diverticular Disease:

Reduced volume & increased density of feces in the large bowel causes increased effort on the part of the muscles in the gut wall when propelling intestinal content forward. This pressure increase is largely responsible for protrusions forced through the wall of the gut's lining membrane (diverticula).

Large Bowel Cancer:

It is generally accepted that dietary factors, primarily excessive fat intake, are responsible for colo-rectal cancer. Fiber increases bulk. This dilutes carcinogens, no matter what their cause. Fiber reduces the duration of a toxin's contact with the bowel mucous by increasing its speed of onward movement through the gut. It binds various toxic substances, rendering them innocuous.

Hemorrhoids:

It appears, even though there are other possible factors, that the shearing force caused by the passage of hard fecal mass through the anal canal is the major cause of hemorrhoids.

Obesity:

Foods rich in fiber have a low energy-satiety rate. They require more chewing and, thus, prolong the time spent eating. Consequently, a sense of satiety is achieved before excessive energy consumption. This, alone, reduces the development of obesity.

Diabetes:

Fiber in the diet reduces the energy consumed and slows digestion. It also increases the viscosity of the contents of the upper intestine. This reduces the rate of energy absorption, which, in turn, helps avoid an excessive demand for insulin output. The presence of fiber is considered a major protective factor against the development of diabetes.

Coronary Heart Disease:

Studies have confirmed that consuming certain fibers can assist in lowering of serum cholesterol levels within the body. This can lessen the likelihood of certain kinds of coronary heart disease for some prople. Some researchers are studying the possibility that fiber can bind both fat and cholesterol in the foods we consume and make it less available to the body.

The very best of diets can be no better than the very worst if the body's sewage system, the colon, is clogged with a collection of waste and corruption New Spirit Naturals has blended superier ingredients for their ability to help increase the fiber content of the diet and provide for good bowel and colon cleansing.

Plantago Psyllium Seed (Blonde):

Sometimes referred to as "colon's broom", Plantago Blonde is a fabulous crude fiber that has twice the bulking capacity of bran. This non-digestible fiber helps scrub the convolutions in the intestinal tract, loosening and cleaning putrefying toxins, while acting as an intestinal lubricant. Because of its content of mucilage, it is used as a demulcent. It absorbs and retains water and, therefore, creates a natural "laxative effect."

Guar Gum or Sterculia:

A dietary fiber from ground endosperms of the seeds of Cyamopsis Psoroliodes. Guar is a digestive fiber used throughout the food industry as a thickening agent. It helps regulate the rate of absorption of nutrients, including sugar, spreading it over a longer period of time. The result is a slower rise in blood sugar levels and a less rapid subsequent drop.

Apple Pectin:

A dietary fiber found in fruits. Amazing properties of Apple Pectin include the absorption of many different destructive elements from the intestinal tract.

Chlorella:

A single cell member of the Chlorophycene (green algae) family. Its nutritive value, high plant protein and chlorophyll content make it one of the world's best foods. NutriCleanse contains a special broken cell wall chlorella which has been shown to increase its digestibility and bio-availability.

Aloe Vera:

Truly nature's aid to digestion. Aloe Vera is loaded with enzymes, minerals and vitamins!

Beta Carotene:

Beta Carotene and a large number of similar compounds known as carotenoids are one of the hottest topics in nutritional science, cancer research and life extension studies. The carotenoids are yellow/orange pigment, deriving their name from carrots. They are found in all photosynthetic plants and bacteria where they play a function in protecting the plant's cell against damage from the highly reactive by-products of the photosynthetic process.
Animals are unable to synthesize carotene and must derive them from plant food sources. The best sources are dark green vegetables (spinach, broccoli, turnip greens) and yellow/orange foods such as carrots, yams, squash, pumpkins, etc. Beta Carotene is converted to two Vitamin A molecules by the intestinal mucosa. Vitamin A is essential for growth and development, vision, reproduction, immunity and maintains the integrity of all epithelial tissues such as teeth,
skin, hair and the mucous membranes of the digestive and respiratory tract. The National Cancer Institute has stated that high levels of Beta Carotene in the diet can reduce the risk of lung cancer by more than 40%. (A U.S. Department of Agriculture survey suggested that nearly half of all Americans get less than the recommended daily allowance of Vitamin A (5000 I.U.) in their normal diet).

Papain:

The protein digesting enzyme from the papaya. Papain helps break down protein into a digestible state. We suggest mixing Aloe/ Papaya Juice with Nutri-Cleanse. This nutritious juice contains calcium, phosphorus and potassium and is rich in Vitamin A!

Capsicum (Cayenne):

Capsicum helps aid circulation in cold extremities and is very useful in inflammations, stomach and bowel disorders, fevers and pleurisy. It also helps relieve the body of excessive mucous.

Cascara-Sagrada:

One of the best herbs for chronic constipation. It is not habit forming. It increases secretions of the liver (bile), is a good intestinal tonic and promotes peristaltic activity of the bowel.

Black Walnut:

Associated with killing and expelling parasites. Assists in the elimination of toxins.

Senna Pod:

A very useful herb for cleansing the system during fasting. Has a natural laxative effect that increases the intestinal peristaltic movements.

Rosehips (Rosa Species):

High in Vitamin C, Rosehips are used to strengthen circulation and act as a respiratory aid which activates membranous and urinary secretions.

Gamma Orizanol:

Made from rice bran, Gamma-Orizanol helps give a calming effect in the stomach. Organic Germanium A mineral found in the earth's crust that appears biologically to be effective in stimulating electrical impulses on a cellular level. Believed to be an "oxygen catalyst", it is found naturally in plants that are known to have special therapeutic properties such as aloe vera, garlic, comfrey, chlorella, ginseng and watercress.

Garlic (Allium Sativum):

Often referred to as the king of the vegetables, Garlic is nature's antibiotic. It has a rejuvenation effect on all body functions, stimulating the lymphatic system to throw off waste materials.

Acidophilus (Carrot Concentrate):

The type of bacteria normally found in a healthy intestinal tract. It helps maintain a balance of friendly bacteria that aids in digestion and promotes proper elimination of wastes. A healthy digestive tract also results in improved adsorption of
nutrients.

Chlorophyll:

An excellent blood cleanser that helps build blood hemoglobin levels. It strengthens the immune system. It assists in the oxygenation of the bloodstream. It is particularly important for people who live in cities and are exposed to smog and smoke (American Journal of Surgery). It breaks down poisonous carbon dioxide. It serves as an infection fighter and a natural deodorizer. Some say it is the richest land source of trace minerals. NutriCleanse all natural colon cleanse contains no sugar, yeast, dairy, wheat, corn, soy, artificial flavoring or colorings or preservatives.

Obesity is a dangerous and a highly prevalent condition
in America and in many parts of the world.
Almost 61% of the US population is either overweight
or obese. The number of children and adolescents
considered overweight has more than doubled
since 1976.

Obesity increases the risk of many diseases, including
degenerative arthritis, obstructive sleep apnea.
dyslipidemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and
coronary artery disease. An obese person may
have a lower quality of life due to the complication
of illnesses incurred due to the excess weight.
Fortunately, obesity is treatable and there is strong
evidence that even modest weight loss (5% of body
weight) significantly decreases the risk of these diseases,
especially diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Our research shows that successful weight loss
must be addressed on many levels. New Spirit
Naturals’ array of weight loss and weight management
products have been formulated to:

-Reduced food consumption using natural appetite
suppressants.

-Increase Gluconeogenesis to maintain healthy blood
sugar levels and a corresponding sense of satiety.

-Increase Thermogenesis, boosting caloric expenditure
to burn stored fat.

-Boost “Adaptive Thermogenesis” to help turn white
adipose tissue (particularly abdominal fat) into useful
energy without stimulating the central nervous system.

CoQ10 | Inside Information & Latest Reports

The Latest Reports on CoQ10

1. Published studies have previously shown that CoQ10 protects heart muscle cells against adriamycin induced cardiomyopathy. Adriamycin is a popular cytotoxic drug used in cancer chemotherapy. These studies showed that a double dose of adriamycin could be administered in the presence of CoQ10 without encountering cardiac toxicity. What the study did not reveal was that only 10% of the cancer patients receiving CoQ10 and adriamycin were dead after three years, while 90% of the patients given adriamycin without CoQ10 were dead within 1.5 years! European oncologists are now using high doses of CoQ10 to put cancer patients into long term remissions. In studies in breast cancer patients, the results have been so astonishing that, after gathering more data, scientists expect to announce the cancer treatment breakthrough of the 20th century!

2. The Foundation has recommended a maximum dose of 400 mg a day of CoQ10 for patients with heart disease and cancer. European doctors are now using 600 mg a day of CoQ10 without encountering toxicity. Cancer patients should consider taking this higher dose of CoQ10.

3. Scientists have not yet determined the exact mechanism by which CoQ10 benefits cancer patients. Preliminary evidence indicates that CoQ10 may suppress the proliferation of cancer cells and boost immune factors that kill cancer cells.

4. CoQ10 is only effective in treating heart disease and chronic fatigue syndrome in those already deficient in CoQ10. About 16-18% of heart disease patients fail to respond to CoQ10 because they are not deficient in it. The same is true for 23-28% of chronic fatigue syndrome patients.

5. Those with heart disease who benefit from CoQ10, must continue taking it for the rest of their lives (just like other heart medications). When a study showed significant relapses in heart disease patients after CoQ10 was discontinued, the FDA tried to use this study to ban for not "curing" heart disease. Since no other cardiac medications "cure" heart disease, this is an example of the FDA's prejudice against natural therapies. Unlike cardiac drugs that work almost immediately, CoQ10 can take 60-to-90 days to produce a therapeutic effect. It also takes 60-to-90 days for the effects of CoQ10 to wear off. Some heart disease patients discontinue taking CoQ10 after they experience a dramatic improvement in their condition because they think they've been "cured". In reality, however, they are increasingly at risk of dying as their cellular levels of CoQ10 decline.

6. CoQ10 combined with Vitamin E protects LDL cholesterol against oxidation, which causes much of the arterial damage of atherosclerosis. CoQ10 dramatically extends vitamin E's ability to prevent the oxidation of LDL cholesterol. In patients with coronary artery atherosclerosis who take high doses of CoQ10 for 2-to-3 years, regressions of coronary artery blockage has been observed.

7. CoQ10 may by the most potent antioxidant found in mitochondria. CoQ10 is responsible for 95% of energy expenditure in some areas of our cells.

8. Psoriasis is a serious medical condition that does not always respond to conventional corticosteroid therapy. High dose coenzyme Q10 appears to be an effective therapy against psoriasis. It works by improving the immune profile of the skin.

9. CoQ10 is being looked at as a therapeutic for prostate cancer.

More scientific conferences are being planned to disseminate information about the role CoQ10 may play in the treatment of cancer.

For optimal health maintenance, healthy people over the age 40 should take at least 100 mg a day of absorbable CoQ10.

CoQ10 in an oil-base absorbs twice (actually 265 times) as well into the bloodstream as CoQ10 in powder form.

Probiotic Complex | Intestinal Microflora > What Is It?

WHAT ARE PROBIOTICS?

The term probiotic is derived from the Greek, “For Life”, and is used to describe growth-promoting factors produced by microorganisms. These friendly bacteria begin colonizing in a matter of hours or days after our birth. The average human digestive system may contain more than one kilogram of bacteria and various strains of probiotics. Therefore, ones intestinal microflora can be considered as a postnatally acquired organ composed of a large diversity of bacterial cells that can perform different functions for the host.

These organisms are influenced and modulated in their composition and function by exposure to environmental factors such as nutrition and lifestyle. Specific components of our intestinal microflora, including lactobacilli and bifobacteria, have been associated with beneficial effects, such as the promotion of gut maturation and integrity, antagonisms against pathogens, and immune modulation.1

In addition, L. Acidophilus and related probiotic strains help the absorption of calcium, copper, iron, and magnesium. They also help the body produce B-Complex vitamins and vitamin K. Other strains help improve the balance or homeostasis of these microorganisms

Not all PROBIOTICS are the same. New Spirit’s probiotic formula contains 10 superior and viable strains which are nondairy, high potency, acid and bile resistant (survives stomach acid), stable at room temperature for two years*, fortified with prebiotics, and packed in vegetable capsules and in powder form.

In addition, New Spirit’s formula contains the patented, DDS-1 culture, which has a long-standing scientific validation and proven ability to colonize in the human gastrointestinal tract. DDS-1 produces enzymes, such as proteases and lipases, which can help the breakdown of proteins and fats.2

New Spirit’s probiotic formula is also fortified with prebiotics, including Jerusalem artichoke flour and short chain inulin. Prebiotics feed probiotics selectively and enhance their growth in the intestines.

Ingredients

L-Acidophilus DDS-1--Named “Acidophilin”, a probiotic with antibacterial properties produced by DDS-1.
*Shown to inhibit Clostridium botulinum, Clostridium perfringens, Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Salmonella, enteritidis, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus faecalis.
*Additional studies demonstrated the effectiveness of acidophilus milk in decreasing the carrier state and on the incidence and duration of salmonella and shigella dysentery in children.
*DDS-1 has the ability to inhibit Helicobacter pylori, the bacterium thought to be responsible for ulcers.
*Shows positive effect in study against the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI). The proposed mechanisms of action includes the inhibition of growth and adhesion of pathogens to the vaginal and urethral mucosa (inner lining).
*DDS-1 was discovered to have cholesterol lowering effects in 1978 by Dr. D.K. Sinha. He observed that adding 4 billion organisms per milliliter of milk lowered cholesterol significantly.
*DDS-1 provides digestive support by producing enzymes such as proteases and lipases which can help breakdown proteins and fat.
L. Bulgaricus--A transient bacteria, not a colonizer, but acts as a great help to the resident bacteria that set up colonies in the intestines.
*L-Bulgaricus is “famous” for alleviating digestive problems (including acid reflux) and taming a runaway appetite.
*Recommended for overall support of friendly bacteria. Enhances digestibility of milk products and other proteins, produces natural antibiotic substances, inhibits undesirable organisms, maximizes the effectiveness of waste disposal, cleanses the colon without disrupting friendly bacteria, and enhances immune function.
*Used by Bulgarian doctors to treat gastrointestinal disorders such as enterocolitis.
*Used to treat patients who are struggling with the aftereffects of taking broad-spectrum antibiotics for long periods of
time.
*Has been studied for vaginal herpes (herpes simplex labialis);
mouth lesions (aphthous stomatitis); ulcers of the cornea (dendritic ulceration) and genital herpes (herpes progenitalis).
*For vaginal herpes the success rate was 95%. Most benefitted within three days.
*Herpes, sores of the mouth, achieved an 80% success rate. Improvement were noted within 24 hours.
*Herpes of the cornea the success rate was 46%.
L. Casei--Reported in Microbiology & Immunology to have the most protective activity (more than any other probiotic)
against the potentially lethal Listeria bacteria. About 30% of those infected with Listeria die. Listeria infects shellfish, birds, spiders, and mammoths (including cows) in all areas of the world. Listeriosis is most commonly transmitted though the consumption of contaminated dairy products or raw vegetables. The most common manifestation of listeriosis is meningitis.
*Currently being studied for its ability to induce an immune response in the genitial mucosa capable of controlling the entry of pathogenic bacteria (STDs)
*Shows an inhibiting activity in tumor cells and a stimulating activity in normal cells.

L. Plantarum--Commonly found in sauerkraut, pickles, olives, kimchi, sourdough, cheese, and other fermented plant materials. These bacteria require oxygen, but do not have a respiratory chain or cytochromes. The oxygen consumed ends up as hydrogen peroxide and is likely used as a weapon against competing bacteria.
L. Brevis--Enhances the immune response which may be attributed to stabilization of the intestinal flora.
B. Lactis--Research studies show that B. Lactis has significant “immunological” properties. It resists acid digestion, the action of the bile salts and survives the intestinal transit allowing large numbers to reach the colon. Known to help alleviate constipation, prevent diarrhea (especially in children) and decrease chronic inflammation of the sigmoid colon. In addition, its antimicrobial properties decrease the effects of negative bacteria, especially clostridia.
L. Rhamnosus--One of the most intensely studied of all probiotic strains. Used in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders such as lactose intolerance, viral and bacterial diarrhea, adverse effects of abdominal radiotherapy, constipation, inflammatory bowel disease and food allergies.

*Shown to inhibit strepococci. Source: European Journal of Oral Sciences. L. Salivarius--Has the unique ability to eradicate the dreaded Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori).
*Traditional treatment of H. pylori infection is with antibiotics, which does not always eradicate the organism and may be accompanied by harmful side effects. H. pylori can become resistant to antibiotics which can create a serious problem later on in treating the infection.
*Able to produce a high amount of lactic acid and thus completely inhibit the growth of H. pylori and reduce the associated inflammatory response.
*Effective against pathogenic organisms such as Salmonella typhimurium.
B. Longum--Able to eliminate cancer causing nitrates found in foods. It has a unique ability to metabolize or degrade nitrates by an intracellular enzymatic activity. Source: Letters in Applied Microbiology.
*The journal of Cancer Research reports that dietary intake of B. Longum significantly inhibits the development and growth of colon, liver, and breast cancer in laboratory animal models.
B. Bifidum--Disturbances of intestinal flora in connection with peristalsis disorders, liver diseases, radiation effects, etc., are usually related to the restriction or disappearance of B. Bifidum. Source: The Journal Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology.

What Triggers a Migraine | Migrabalance > Migraine Relief

What Triggers a Migraine?

Any number of things can trigger a migraine in a susceptible individual.

Some of the most noted causes are:
• Allergies
• Constipation
• Stress
• Liver Malfunction
• Sun glare
• Flashing light
• Lack of exercise
• Dental problems
• Changes in barometric pressure
• High dietary fat intake
• Hormonal changes
• Consumption of food with tyramine
• Low blood sugar.

Two of the most noted causes of migraines are:

1.) Hormonal changes

Fluctuations in the level of the hormone estrogen during the menstrual cycle have been linked to the onset of migraines. Headaches greatly decrease after menopause. Women who suffer from hormonal changes may benefit from the use of a natural progesterone crème.

2.) Low Blood Sugar

Studies have shown that blood sugar levels are low during a migraine attack, and the lower the blood sugar level, the more severe the headache.

These primary causes are compounded at the onset of menstruation when women commonly experience low blood sugar

The Five Phases of a Migraine:

1. A day before the onset of a headache, there may be detectable changes in mood, problems with memory, an alternation in one or all the five senses, or speech problems.

2. Just before the headache begins, some people see flashes or patterns of light and/or experience numbness of the hands and mouth. This is called an aura, much like auras that effect many people with epilepsy. A migraine preceded by an aura is called a Classic Migraine. Migraines without auras are called Common Migraines.

3. The headache starts with severe, throbbing pain. It may occur on one side or on both sides of the head. The pain can also move from side to side. Nausea may set in, along with tenderness in the neck and scalp. The eyes may be very sensitive to light and the person may be almost immobilized by the pain.

4. The headache dissipates, however, nausea may linger.

5. The person may feel tired and lethargic and may simply want to sleep.

Dietary Links to Migraines:

The mechanisms that trigger migraine headaches are not fully and clearly understood. While many are traced to foods, a food that is implicated in one individual may not trigger an attack in another. Further complicating this link, food tolerance thresholds vary with time and usage.

• Foods commonly associated with the onset of migraines include citrus fruits, tea, coffee, pork, chocolate, milk, nuts, and cola drinks.
• Substances causing modifications in vascular tone are tyramine, phenylalanine, phenolic flavors, alcohol, food additives (sodium nitrate, monosodium glutamate), aspartame and caffeine.
• Foods that trigger migraines subsequent to hypoglycemia have been identified as: chocolate, cheese, citrus fruits, bananas, nuts, cured meats, dairy product, cereals, beans, hot dogs, pizza, food additives, coffee, tea, cola drinks, and alcoholic drinks, such as red wine, beer, or whiskey distilled in copper stills. (Leira and Rodriquez, 1996; American Diabetes Association, 1993)

Nutritional Recommendations:

1. Rule out food sensitivities that maybe contributing to migraine headaches.
Early studies have suggested that about 30-40% of migraineurs benefit markedly by avoiding certain foods. The results of four double blind studies support the role of food in causing migraines. Most foods that provoke migraines are commonly eaten, but often not recognized as the cause. Dietary restrictions of these foods and others that are known or suspected to initiate migraines may be required as part of a treatment protocol. To identify the offending foods, eliminate them from the diet and reintroduce them one by one to determine their effect. A nutritional advisor, health care professional or dietitian can offer alternative food suggestions to insure that healthful nutritional levels are maintained.

2. Avoid dietary amines. Foods such as chocolate, cheese, citrus, and alcohol contain amines (i.e. betaphenylethylamine and tyramine) known to cause vasoconstriction either directly or indirectly through the liberation of catecholamines.

3. Reduce arachidonic acid, found in a disproportionate amount of omega-6 oils in the diet, such as corn oil and many high temperature frying oils. Arachidonic acid can increase platelet aggregation, increase histamine release and increase inflammation associated with migraines.

4. Increase consumption of essential fatty acids, especially omega-3 fatty acids. This will decrease platelet aggregation and change the membrane composition to more of the unsaturated acids. New Spirit Naturals offers several choices: Golden Omega-OmegaTM, New Life 1000TM, Life EssentialsTM, and Omega Cranberry Snack.

4. The headache dissipates, however, nausea may linger.

5. The person may feel tired and lethargic and may simply want to sleep.

One of the most important contributions of the study was to identify increased levels of blood fat as a common denominator of primary headaches. The objective was to reduce fat consumption to 20 to 30 grams per day, or approximately 10 to 15% of total calories.

Results of the study:

• Decreased headache frequency of nearly 71%
• Decreased migraine intensity by about 66%
• Decreased migraine duration by about 74%
• Decreased pain medication usage by 72%
• More that 94% of all participants reported at least 40% improvement,
while only 6% reported little or no noticeable improvement.

7. Add De-Oiled Lecithin to your diet as a natural source of choline. Red blood cell choline levels may be different in patients with cluster headaches. In a study of cluster headaches, the RBC choline concentration of patients suffering from cluster headaches was compared to age-related controls. The RBC choline concentration was reported to be low in patients during and between cluster periods. During lithium treatment, choline levels rose 78 times. (de Belleroche, 1984)

Recommended: De-Oiled Lecithin; Green Magic

8. Take 1 or 2 capsules daily of MigraBalance™. MIGRABALANCE™ has been formulated as a dietary supplement for the support of healthy cerebrovascular tone.† (Mansfield, 1988}

Tanacetum parthenium (feverfew.)
50 mg. standardized extract
Feverfew is a natural botanical commonly
recommended to support cerebrovascular tone.†
It contains compounds known as sesquiterpene
lactones. The most common of these is
parthenolides which represent about 85% of the
sesquiterpene lactone content in feverfew leaf extracts.
The tanacetum parthenium used in MIGRABALANCE™ is
standardized to a high parthenolides content of 0.7%.
Standardization insures the optimal level of parthenolides.
• Scientific studies have demonstrated that parthenolides inhibits platelet aggregation and the release of serotonin from platelets and polymorphonuclear leukocule granules.†
• In addition, feverfew has been shown to inhibit pro-inflammatory prostaglandin synthesis and the release of arachidonic acid.†
• European studies have shown that standardized feverfew extract is beneficial in the long-term support of cerebrovascular tone.†
• Tanacetum parthenium has been shown to inhibit the
secretion of serotonin and other platelet granule constituents, decrease smooth muscle response to endogenous substances (norepinephrine, acetylcholine, bradykinin, prostaglandins, histamine, and serotonin), and inhibit the production of inflammatory substances (leukotrienes, thromboxanes). (Marz,1999)
• Researchers found that 70% of 270 migraine sufferers who had taken few daily for prolonged periods of time had both decreased frequency and severity of migraine headaches. (Johnson, 1985)

Magnesium Amino Acid Chelate (200 mg.)
Magnesium is a nutritional dietary supplement that
supports vascular tone in several ways:†
• Inhibition of vasospasm.
• Direct alternations of cerebrovascular tone.
• Stabilization of cell membranes.
• Interference with synthesis, release and actions of
inflammatory mediations.
• Inhibition of platelet aggregation.
Some studies of persons with poor cerebrovascular tone have been shown to have low brain levels of magnesium.†
Magnesium supplementation may help compensate
for this deficiencies.†
Daily Recommendation: 400 to 800 mg. per day
(supplement and dietary source). (Schoenen,1991)
(Cephalagia, 1991)
Magnesium helps prevent release of catecholamines,
which is an important mediator of platelet aggregation.
In one study (Schoenen, 1991), it was found that
patients without auras had a significant reduction in
RBC magnesium compared to sufferers with auras.
No difference was seen in serum magnesium.

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) 200 mg.
This B vitamin is a precursor of flavinadenine dinucleotide (FAD), an important coenzyme component of the electron-transport chain. A deficiency of mitochondrial energy reserves has been observed in some persons exhibiting poor cerebrovascular tone.

In some clinical trials, riboflavin seems to reduce the pain and frequency of migraine. Fifty nine percent (59%) of patients receiving riboflavin improved by at least 50%. (Holroyd, 2003)

Dulse (10 mg)
Palmaria palmata is red seaweed grown in the cold waters surrounding Grand Manan Island, located off the south coast of New Brunswick. Dulse is a natural detoxifying vegetable which provides a primary source of essential vitamins, particularly the B vitamins, minerals, protein, and trace elements, including lithium.
In his book, Medical Nutrition from Marz, Dr. Russell Marz, a Naturopathic physician, indicates that lithium from food sources may be useful in acute attack cluster headaches.†

Additional research shows that lithium may reduce cluster headaches and the cyclic form of migraines. (Solomon, 1991) (Yung, 1984)

Ginger (Zingiber officinale) 10 mg
Ginger root contains the active components gingerols, zingerone and shogaols, compounds which are antioxidants.

More than 80% of migraine patients report nausea and up to 50% report vomiting. Experts agree that ginger is a highly effective anti-nausea agent (Web MD, 2002)

The Lancet, a highly respected British Medical Journal, reported excellent results in scientific testing using ginger to treat nausea. The powdered rhizome of Zingiber officinale has been found to be more effective than dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) in reducing motion sickness in individuals highly susceptible to this malady. (Mowrey , 1982)

Vasu Flex | Arterial Aging > Fight Cardiovascular Disease

VasuFlex is a proprietary formula based on this exciting research. According to Nobel Laureate, Dr. Ignarro, this balanced combination of amino acids can increase the body's ability to prevent and even reverse cardiovascular disease.

The extraordinary research of three American Doctors indicates that a power packed combination of nutritional supplements can work to improve the function of the inner lining of the blood vessels and aid in boosting the production of nitric oxide (NO), the agent in your body that widens blood vessels and increases blood flow. New Spirit Naturals' proprietary formula includes important supportive nutrients that further enhance the synthesis and/or prevent the breakdown of nitric oxide.

New Spirit Naturals is a brand you can trust for quality. Learn how to stop and even reverse arterial aging, the leading risk factor for CVD. New Spirit Naturals has introduced extraordinary new technology that allows you to view a graphic representation of your heart beat, while state of the art software takes just minutes to evaluate the efficiency and elasticity of large, small and peripheral circulation patterns that can determine the health of your heart and arteries.

Moreover, exciting new research by the nations leading cardiologists and Nobel Laureates indicates that you can you stop and even reverse the progression of arteriosclerosis

How old is your heart? It is well known that cardiovascular disease is the #1 cause of death and disability in the Western World. Nearly 62 million Americans have at least one type of cardiovascular disease: Arteriolosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and high blood pressure are the leading risk factors. Every 29 seconds, an American has what doctors call a coronary event.. . .such as a heart attack death occurs from a coronary event every minute. A death occurs from a stroke every 3 minutes. As we age, our risk increases. With aging, arteries lose elasticity, often triggering elevated blood pressure. Dietary abuses and a sedentary lifestyle further impact the health of our vascular system.

Three 1998 Nobel Laureates, building on decades of scientific research, have identified the endothelium factor and linked it to the health and vascular age of your arteries, veins and capillaries.

What is the Endothelium?
It is a single layer of selectively permeable cells that line the entire cardiovascular system and exerts tremendous control over the flow of blood. Lumped together, the endothelium is the largest organ of the body, weighing as much as the liver. Extraordinary new studies clearly indicate that endothelial damage is the trigger of current markers of vascular dysfunction, including plaque formation and inflammation.

The endothelium protects the integrity of the vascular system, providing a teflon lining that prevents cells from sticking to our vascular walls. It accomplishes this through the production of Nitric Oxide (NO).

As NO levels declines, so does endothelial function. As endothelial function declines, so does the elasticity and integrity of our vascular system. This continuous breakdown of the vascular system has tremendous ramifications on your health.

Just think about the capabilities of large arteries, medium sized arteries and our peripheral veins, the capillaries that carry nutrients to the furthest extremities of the body:

Every 60 seconds, our vascular system distributes no less than 5 quarts of life sustaining blood, an extraordinary 1800gallons per day. The vascular system also distributes oxygen from the lungs, nutrients from the intestines, hormones from the brain and glands and white blood cells, the foundation of the body’s ever vigilant immune system. All waste is removed from the body and delivered to the liver and kidneys for breakdown and excretion. The vascular system can signal the blood to clot when there is a cut. It can control the diameter of the smallest capillary, increasing flow to muscles during exercise and decreasing flow to the skin when the body reacts to fear. The small vessels dilate and constrict to direct the flow. The large arteries respond to the hearts rhythm, expanding with each beat and relaxing between beats.

Under microscopic observation, our vascular system reveals the effect of plaque in the arteries - quite literally blemishes that have earned the name arteriolosclerosis. A rupture or damage to the endothelium attracts the “bad cholesterol” (LDL-C) which sticks and oxidizes and attracts white blood cells. This powerful army generated by the immune system engulfs oxidized cholesterol until, engorged, they swell into foam cells. If the endothelium does not recover, LDL-C and Foam Cells form a pustule, much like a pimple, which signals for more white blood cells and a powerful antioxidant, super oxide ion. When the abscess pops, it releases puss and causes a blood clot that can lead to heart attack or stroke. An aging vessel wall looks like skin scarred with acne!

Nobel Prize winning research shows us how we can restore endothelial function by boosting NO production. NO slows plaque growth and suppresses arteriosclerosis, keeping vessels pliable and elastic. NO reduces the stickiness of the endothelium and prevents white blood cells and platelets from clinging to the vessel wall. NO calms the cells flowing through the vessel and, thereby protects the vessel wall. Even when blood cholesterol is high, if the vessel is producing sufficient amounts of NO, the vessel will be protected from the development of plaque. NO melts away or shrinks plaque that is already there! NO regulates oxidative enzymes (ADMA) in the cell, preventing oxidation and the free radical damage it generates. NO has been shown to relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure.

This research notable of the coveted Nobel Prize in Medicine (1998) is changing the landscape of cardiovascular health and adding credibility to the right mix of nutritional supplements. Are You At Risk? With the availability of nutritional tools to stop and even reverse the progression of arteriolosclerosis, how can you assess the current health of your vascular system and, just as important, evaluate the effectiveness of your lifestyle changes?

Tomato Soup Diet | Natural Weight Loss > Skinny Tomato

More than a dietary supplement, Skinny Tomato™ is a delicious, low calorie functional food designed to provide nutritional support as a meal replacement (50 calories) while you lose weight or to help maintain your healthy weight. Science tells us that starvation diets create a “yo-yo effect” of weight loss, followed by weight gain. The body interprets lack of food as a nutritional famine and responds by reducing its metabolic rate. Nutritious meals are the foundation of healthy natural weight loss. Just one serving of Skinny Tomato™ contains the equivalent of two organic tomatoes and a patented non-GMO natural bean extract (Phaseolus vulgaris) which may reduce the enzymatic digestion of dietary starches, one of the the leading causes of weight gain.

The Science of weight loss
The kind of food we eat affects our diet-induced thermogenesis or as it is sometimes called “Specific Dynamic Action” (SDA). This is the amount of calories your body burns when digesting, absorbing, and metabolizing a meal. Simply it means that it takes calories to burn and release the calories in food. A person’s SDA constitutes about 10% of the total calories burned.

The kind of food we eat will affect SDA. Proteins such as Ultra Whey Pro™ and Meal in a Glass™ elicits the highest SDA, followed closely by carbohydrates. Fats are a problem for most people as fat creates a significantly smaller amount of SDA to be digested. This accounts for the fact that high-fat diets can be detrimental to losing weight (this was one of the problems with the Atkins diet).

The body does not use up many calories to digest and assimilate fats. When a person eats 100 calories worth of protein and carbohydrates, the body will use up approximately 25% of these calories just to digest the nutrients. However, when a person eats 100 calories worth of fat, the body will only burn about 3% in the digestion process.

Food scientists have documented that the more frequently we eat, the more energy we will expend in digesting the food. This has resulted in nutritionists recommending that we eat usually four to six small meals per day. Skinny Tomato™ can be substituted for one or more of those small meals per day. However, this advice comes with high warnings. This strategy will work only if the composition of the food is low in calories and in appropriate quantity. Skinny tomato™ a super food

Each serving of Skinny Tomato™ contains two whole organic tomatoes, which have been carefully dried at low temperature to preserve the nutrient content versus normal processing which usually eliminate the tomato peels causing the loss of protective carotenoids. In Skinny Tomato™ only water and some acidity are removed creating the wonderful natural sweet juiciness of a vine-ripened organic tomato. With Skinny Tomato™ you can enjoy the wonderful subtle dessert quality sweetness of US grown organic tomatoes year round and not be dependent upon the local growing season.

The subject of “Lycopene in Tomatoes” has been a hot topic in the research of food and phytonutrients. This cartenoid
has been extensively studied for its superfood powers in the area of antioxidants and cancer preventing properties. Lycopene’s antioxidant function is tied to its ability to help protect cells and other structures in the body from oxygen damage (i.e. the protection of DNA inside white blood cells). Although lycopene may play an important role in the health benefits in tomatoes, it is not the only nutritional superstar giving this food a red-hot reputation for health promotion.

Recent research shows that the tomato’s protective effects against prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease are not simply due to the lycopene content, but result from the synergy of lycopene in preventing with other phytonutrients naturally present in whole tomatoes. Skinny Tomato™ contains the whole tomato.

Astudy published in the Journal of the Natural Cancer Institute found that whole tomato powder was significantly more effectively than lycopene alone in the onset of prostate cancer. Recent research is now demonstrating that lycopene may play only a minor role in tomatoes heart health benefits.
additional benefits
Lycopene is a powerful inhibitor of lung, breast, and endometrial cancer.
--The compounds found in tomatoes; coumaric acid and chlorogenic acid, help block the effect of nitrosamines found in tobacco smoke and may help reduce lung cancer.

--Serum PSA, primary tumor volume, and secondary tumor incidence, and pain associated with prostate cancer metastasis decline in patients who received lycopene tomato extract. (Ansari: et al. 2003)

--Lycopene in the body is concentrated in the liver, prostate, adrenal glands and testes.

--Lycopene may help reduce the risk of cataracts and mental degeneration.

--Supplementation with tomato products containing Lycopene, has been shown to lower biomarkers of oxidative stress.

--Women with the highest levels of Lycopene in their blood have five times a lower risk of developing precancerous signs of cervical cancer than women with lower Lycopene levels. University of Illinois study qtd. in Natural Products Industries, Ltd. Brochure. skinny tomato™ ingredients

Organic Tomatoes--one serving (1 heaping Tbl.) of Skinny Tomato™ delivers the equivalent of two fresh whole organic tomatoes. Low temperature drying help preserve the color and taste of red tomatoes. Through the special drying process one tomato is dried into approximately 4.4 ounces of powder concentrating the lycopene and other nutrients.

Phase 2 Bean Extract--each serving contains 1.5 grams of starch neutralizing carb controlling extract that has been shown to inhibit the digestive enzyme alpha-amylase. It is this enzyme that is responsible for breaking down starch to simple sugars that are absorbed in the small intestines. Neutralizing these starches (carbs) allows them to pass through the digestive system, decreasing the number of calories absorbed, potentially promoting weight loss.

Soluble Dietary Fiber--a digestion resistant source of soluble fiber which helps with cleansing and detoxifying the system. De-Oiled Lecithin--this natural solubilizer helps emulsify fats and water and provide a creamy consistency.

Guar--a non ionic water soluble fiber. Promotes satiety, slows the digestion of a meal, thus lowering the glycemic index. May help support the increased absorption of calcium and lower serum cholesterol. suggested use for weight loss

Use Skinny Tomato™ once or twice a day as a meal replacement (preferable breakfast and dinner). If you feel hungry between meals take an additional serving at any time. Do not wait until extreme hunger occurs as this causes a tendency to overeat due to lower blood sugar levels. If over 20 lbs. beyond your desired weight you may wish to try our Hearty Soup Recipe options.

Hearty Soup Recipes
Option 1: Add 1 serving of Whey Pro™ Protein Powder to 1 serving of Skinny Tomato™. This will give you approximately 24 grams of protein in one quick meal. (Total calories 155) Protein has a high SDA.

Option 2: Add ½ cup chopped lightly steamed vegetables; carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, peas, bell peppers, water chestnuts, or any of you favorite vegetables to each serving of Skinny Tomato™. Avoid potatoes rice, and corn. Can also add 4 oz. of lean chopped meat if desired.

Option 3: Add two servings of Skinny Tomato™ to make a larger portion (only 100 calories and zero fat). May add one serving of Magic Fiber™ CLR to enhance the dietary fiber content. (15 grams of fiber total).

Option 4: Use as a soup base, instead of canned soups which usuall have high sodium content. Be creative. SUGGESTED USE
Add 10 ounces of hot water to 1 heaping Tbl. (14 grams) of Skinny Tomato™ and stir briskly until dissolved. For best result take Skinny Tomato™ in conjunction with three Vita Trim Pro™ capsules per day.

Alpha Greens | Alfalfa Alkalizer > Rich In Vitamins & Enzymes

Alfalfa “Father of all Foods”

Centuries ago, the Arabs used alfalfa as feed for their horses, claiming that it made the animals strong and swift. Seeing these benefits, they decided to try the herb themselves. They observed that this addition to the diet quickly improved health and strength. The grass was named “Al - Fal - Fa”, “Father of all Foods.”

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is one of the most studied plants. With today’s advances in science, we know that it contains important substances, including several saponins, many sterols, flavonoids, coumarins, alkaloids, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, trace elements, enzymes, plant sugars and proteins (approx. 25% by weight). Overall, alfalfa is one of the most nutritious foods known.

Quite possibly this is due to its massive root system that travels as deep as 250 feet into the earth to obtain its storehouse of nutrients. Some scholars have established that the total length of the roots of just one plant would equal almost 3,000 miles. It is little wonder that a plant with this type of root system would be rich in minerals stored deep in the earth’s recesses.

Alfalfa contains vitamin A, E, K, B and D. It also contains silicon, phosphorus, iron, potassium, chlorine, sodium, magnesium and many additional trace elements. Alfalfa has eight known enzymes that promote chemical reactions that enable food to be assimilated properly within the body.

In addition to alfalfa, Alpha Greens contains a blend of 100% pure cereal grass juices, including organically grown wheat, barley and kamut grass juices.

For centuries, man has consumed cereal grains as a source of complex carbohydrates. Numerous studies have revealed the health benefits of complex carbohydrates (slow dissolving), versus simple carbohydrates (refined sugar and starches), which tend to breakdown quickly and raise blood sugar levels rapidly. Despite the advantage of whole grains, some scholars have pointed to their overuse as a source of allergic reactions or gluten intolerances.

Alpha Greenstm contains no grains, only the juices from these young cereal plants.

Our cereal grasses are organically grown in an ancient high altitude, pristine, mineral rich volcanic sea bed. Only natural mineral spring water is used to irrigate these rich fields. When the plants reach approximately 6” to 8” in height, they are quickly cut, juiced and dried at low temperatures (below 100° Fahrenheit) to preserve heat sensitive nutrients, vitamins, enzymes and precious chlorophyll.

Chlorophyll is perhaps the most significant, therapeutic ingredient in plants. It accounts for approximately 70% of the solid content of wheat grass juice. Chlorophyll is the plasma of plants. Green plants take in sunlight and transfer it into food. This diverse process is called photosynthesis.

Famous research scientist, E. Bircher, founder of the famous Bircher-Brenner Clinic in Switzerland, called chlorophyll “concentrated sun power” and found that, “chlorophyll increases the functions of the heart, affects the vascular system, the intestines, the uterus and the lungs”.

It has also been reported to raise the basic nitrogen exchange. This, plus its stimulating properties, makes alfalfa a unique tonic. 2

Grass juices have an additional benefit that is often overlooked. Due to their high mineral content, they are alkaline forming in the body. Many of the foods we consume daily are acid forming. When metabolized, carbohydrates, proteins and fats produce inorganic and organic acids.
• Protein produces sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid.
• Carbohydrates and fats produce acetic and lactic acid.
These acids are all poisonous and need to be eliminated quickly from the body. However, if eliminated as an acid through the kidneys or large intestine, they would cause tremendous damage.

Luckily, before they are eliminated, these acids are neutralized in our body by mineral compounds.

The family of mineral compounds which neutralize acids are carbonic salts that contain any one of the four basic or alkaline elements: Na (Sodium), Ca (Calcium), K (Potassium) and Mg (Magnesium). When carbonic salts meet with strong acids such as sulfuric, phosphoric, acetic or lactic acid, the alkaline minerals making up the carbonic salt combine
with the acids, forming new salts no longer harmful to the kidneys, intestinal walls or other elimination channels.

In the future, man will use the sunshine element of plants to regenerate and heal the human body
George Crile M.D.

For example, a carbonic salt changes sulfuric acid, a strong acid, to sulfuric salt, a substance with can be eliminated through the kidneys without any harm.

This process of changing acids to neutral salt reduces the concentration of alkaline elements (Na, Ca, Mg & K) in the blood and extracellular fluid. Whenever there is a shortage of alkaline forming elements Na (sodium) and Ca (calcium) in the extracellular fluids, K (potassium) and Mg (magnesium) are also lowered in the intracellular fluids.

It is this lowered concentration of alkaline elements that is referred to as an “acidic condition” of the body fluid.

If the intracellular fluids are lowered significantly, nerves will not transmit messages and a coma may result. Many researchers now believe that one of the important causes of cancer and other degenerative disease is the cumulative effect of an acidic condition of body fluid.

In order to enjoy optimum health, the body fluid must be kept at an alkaline level (pH 7.4). To maintain this pH, we must replenish alkaline elements through consuming alkaline forming foods. The ideal diet should include 75%-80% alkaline and 20%-25% acid forming foods.

Quick Facts About Vitamins:

Vitamins function in a wide capacities within the body. Most notably, they function as cofactors for enzymatic functions. Because they cannot be synthesized by our cells they must be supplied in the diet.

Your diet can profoundly influence supplement requirements. For example, the dietary requirement for thiamin (vitamin B1) is proportional to the caloric intake of the diet and ranges from 1.0 - 1.4 mg/day for normal adults. If the carbohydrate content of the diet is excessive, increased thiamin is required.

Assimilation of vitamins are often dependent on the body's digestive health.

Minerals comprise about 5% of the body. These minerals, however, control the behavior of the remaining 95% of elements that govern our metabolism. Chelation is a process whereby minerals are bonded with proteins to insure their complete and rapid assimilation.

Nutritional studies show conclusively that vitamins and minerals do not work alone. For example, calcium requires vitamin D for absorption in the colon. Moreover, calcium supplementation requires vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, magnesium and phosphorus. For this reason, VitaBalance 2000 has been formulated to synergistically balance over 124 key nutrients essential for the body's metabolism.
