Higher levels of supplements appear to offer dramatic benefits in treating different forms of depression. A study was carried out at the University of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, based on giving people who suffered from manic depression higher levels of vitamin and mineral supplementation. Their findings were astonishing. For those who completed the minimum six-month open trial, symptom reduction ranged from 55 percent to 66 percent, and their need for the appropriate prescription antidepressant medications decreased by more than 50 percent. |

There's a lot more to supplements than just what's listed on the label.
The science behind vibrational nutrition
If you're interested in the science behind this, take a look at a book called, "The Hidden Messages in Water," which discusses the ability of intention and emotion to alter the crystalline shape of frozen water crystals as photographed under a microscope. This book, authored by Japanese researcher Masaru Emoto, shows photographs of various water crystals after having been exposed to different emotions. |

The laboratory tests, conducted by Alkemist Pharmaceuticals in Costa Mesa, CA, show that approximately two-thirds of the tested supplements contain no identifiable hoodia gordonii according to two plant authentication tests: High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). Many samples were furthermore subjected to microscopy with digital photo documentation.
For each specimen, an unopened, sealed plastic bottle was delivered to Alkemist Pharmaceuticals. The batch number and expiration date, if printed on the bottle, was photo-documented. |

In any case, if you're not taking Alive supplements today, I strongly recommend that you go out and buy a couple of bottles of them, and start taking them. I continue to be a strong proponent of this nutritional supplement, because it contains so many of the food groups that we know are now beneficial to health. It not only prevents chronic disease in a huge way, but when taken in very large doses as a food, I believe it can even help treat and reverse chronic disease.
Think about what's in it. |

Drink your vitamins
Back to the issue of making supplements more palatable to customers: this was a big trend at the show. A company called Ola Loa offered another example of the new trend with their slogan, "Drink your vitamins." Here's a case where a nutrient-rich vitamin formula is very easy to drink; it tastes something like a sports drink, and has just a little bit of fructose and stevia in it. It's not too sweet, and it has no artificial ingredients -- no artificial colors, preservatives, sucralose, aspartame, or artificial chemical sweeteners healthy people already know to avoid. |
There are probably some foods or beverages that you can eliminate over time, and there are probably some superfoods or supplements that you can add to your diet. There's always a way to be healthier, and it's not a huge chasm to cross. It's just one step forward. Do one thing better each and every day. You know, Tony Robbins talks about constant and never-ending improvement (CANI), and I believe that's a very valid concept. In fact, that's what I use in my own life; it's what I used to transform my own health, and that's what I encourage other people to do. |

In fact, wheat grass juice is one of the best supplements you can put into your body if you are currently fighting or trying to prevent cancer. And here in this formula you get both wheat grass juice and barley grass juice. So it's an outstanding combination of superfoods.
The next ingredient is organic sesame seed. This is a healthy oil and healthy fiber ingredient. Sesame seeds also have an anti-cancer effect that's very well documented. They additionally support kidney function and are high in fiber. So, once again, it's an excellent source for nutrition in a food bar. |

We will talk more about that when we talk about supplements, because that is a big one for me. You can't get everything out of your diet; you just can't. We have lost the nutritional value of most of our foods, which is why we have lost the flavor in them. About the lamb meal, some people are going to want to know, what parts of the lamb go into the meal?
Newman: Whole muscle meat.
Mike: So no hooves, nose or lips?
Newman: No. None of that is in there. That is why our food is more expensive, too. We're using USDA choice meat. |

Intake of excess fluoride (through toothpaste, fluoridated water, and fluoride supplements) can cause dental fluorosis.20
¦ Lead levels in children. The chemical most commonly used to fluoridate Americas drinking water is associated with an increase in children's blood lead levels. Children can get this fluoride from a variety of sources: food and beverages made in fluoridated cities, fluoridated dental products, fluoride containing pesticide residues in food, industrial fluoride air emissions, and fluoride containing medicines, anesthetics, and other products. |

They use a lot of supplements, but they still feel, "We're the country that liberated the world; we have the greatest system." Baby boomers are different. What's happening is that the baby boomers are putting their parents into nursing homes. They're visiting their parents who, in their early 70s, have senile dementia, Alzheimer's and can't feed themselves. They're being told, "Well, I guess it's just genetic." But yet their grandparents didn't experience these illnesses. |
I've put my patients with Parkinson's on greens and CoQ10 and other supplements. Soon they're able to feed themselves. Did we get rid of the Parkinson's? No. But they're able to feed themselves. That counts, too.
It's not been studied, so I don't know how you double blind study changing nutritional habits. And it's a flaw of models. You know, conventional models study a single entity to death and find out everything about it. With a natural model, nobody's ever going to say, "Okay, take this vitamin E, take this CoQ10, but don't eat them." It's a multi-therapeutic model. |

I had been a raw foodist for about two years at that time, and I began to go through more like a detox, you can say, because I was eating much more nutrient-dense cuisine – a lot more dark, leafy vegetables like kale – and working with more of the salubrious vegetables – lots of seaweed and some supplements – and so I wanted to work on myself much more and I wanted to learn more about this lifestyle and really be a product of that, and not just be another person out in the world with a restaurant promoting raw food but not necessarily having all the experience. |

At best, these supplements or drugs are tools that can aid you in weight loss and help amplify your results or ease the effort required to get those results. But they won't do the work for you. |

You have to build up your nutrient minerals with amino acids, specific amino acid supplements. You have to have the proper vitamins and minerals to make your brain work right. You have to have the proper lipids, again, to make your brain work right, for brain function. You have to balance your pH because your brain won't function if you're too alkaline or too acid. Then, you live the lifestyle. We put all those together, and that's live foods and fasting; fasting clears the brain. There was research done in Russia with schizophrenics, incurable schizophrenics, and they water fasted them. |

It's not a particularly healthy community and audience, and yet a lot of these people are extraordinarily knowledgeable about supplements, diets and lifestyle choices. So there's a big gap between knowledge and applying knowledge. I think it all comes down to several things. Presenting the information in a manner that a person can hear it and utilize it is important. Help them understand the situation. When I do a lecture on insulin resistance and diabetes, I actually spend three quarters or even more of the lecture saying "How did this develop?" so they can actually start seeing the ties. |

In addition to various antiviral products, I also recommend a variety of foods, herbs, supplements and even some RADICAL "last-ditch" antiviral solutions in my book, "How to Beat the Flu" http://www.truthpublishing.com/beattheflu.html
These natural antiviral solutions DO WORK. Their antibacterial and antiviral properties are well established through thousands of published studies in the medical literature. This is what I'm personally stockpiling and what I'm telling my family and friends to buy. |

Cell Phones and Damaging Electromagnetic Frequencies CEMFsD
Electromagnetic waves were discovered in 1888 by Heinrich Hertz and have found extensive application in today's society. |
There are many brands available in your local health food store as well as digestive cleaning formulas and supplements from Renew Life, Inc. (www.renewlife.com). These are not recommended if you have stones in your liver, gall bladder, or kidneys. Most people do these types of cleanses on their own, but they really should be done under the supervision or guidance of an experienced health practitioner.
WHAT YOU CAN DO TO MINIMIZE PARASITES
¦ Get in the habit of using garlic, oregano, and coconut, which are naturally antiparasitic and antimictobal. |
Also, don't mix supplements. Try one at a time and see how it works for you.
SUPER HEALTH KEY #3—EXERCISE
For starters, you can begin a regular exercise program, because nothing has been shown to improve sleep quality as effectively as regular exercise. It relieves stress and leads to relaxation. But don't work out within three hours before going to bed because your metabolism needs time to slow down.
CREATE A SLEEP SANCTUARY
Keep your bedroom completely dark. Wear ear plugs if you are easily awakened by small noises. |

I don't do a lot of water fasting here, but they water fasted them for 28 days, and in Russia they don't have supplements.
Mike: You do juice fasting here, so people know.
Cousens: Yes, and what happened was that 65 percent of the incurable schizophrenics started functioning normally. The only time they relapsed was when they ate meat. That's because they have five times more 6-hydroxy-skatole, which is a toxin they could metabolize in the meat, and then it creates dysfunction in the brain.
Mike: And that's in all red meat?
Cousens: All meat. |

The proponents of this directive say that it's about protecting patients from all these dangerous vitamins, minerals, supplements, plant extracts and antioxidants that are so dangerous for people. They say, "We're going to keep you safe!" Let me tell you what I think. It's an attempt to outlaw nutrition. It is an attempt to criminalize those who would offer nutritional products that can actually prevent and even treat chronic diseases.
Why would anyone want to do this? Well, look at what it's trying to ban. |

That's also a great way to save money on vitamin D supplements.
Another reason I don't like cows' milk as a source of calcium is because there is a lot of bad that goes in with the good of the calcium. You get the homogenized milk fats, which I call "processed milk fats." You will also get a whole lot of calories.
You know, milk, I think, is very deceptively marketed. When milk says 2 percent milk fat on the label, a lot of people are under the misimpression that from a calorie counting point of view, you only get 2 percent of your calories from fat when you're drinking a glass of milk. |
These are excellent supplements.
Don't get your calcium from cows
But, specifically, when it comes to calcium, you need to supplement it if you're going to get adequate supplies of calcium in your system. And, here is where most people go wrong. They think the best source of calcium is cows' milk. Why do they think that? Because that's the message that the dairy industry has spent hundreds of millions of dollars over many, many years to inject into peoples' minds. |

I'm going to start working on my foods, my nutrition, my supplements, and my lifestyle. I'm going to change my life and take responsibility for the outcome." That's where you get healthy. That's where you can bypass all that organized medicine.
Again, this is the kind of information that organized medicine hopes you never hear. They don't want people to bypass their system. They want people to run through their system like a factory. "Here, take these pills -- we'll make a dollar every day for each pill." But I believe you don't need that system. |
