#35 Smoothie Recipes & cookies
MANGO TANGO RAW SMOOTHIE
1/2 fresh Mango, peeled
1 orange peeled
1 apple cut in small pieces
1 cup pumpkin cut into small pieces
1 small six-inch zucchini sliced thinly
1 large handful of swiss chard or spinach
Wiz with the blender, its fast and easy for quick get aways in the morning.
Good-quality Mangoes will yield slightly to gentle pressure when ripe. The coloring will be deep red and/or rich yellow with only a blush of green at the most. If you’re in a hurry, you can ripen a mango in a sealed plastic bag with ripe bananas on top of the refrigerator.
Here is an easy way to cut up a mango. The pit of the mango goes the entire length and width of the fruit, and it is very skinny. With the peel on, make two cuts, dividing the mango into thirds. You will have the right third, the middle third that has the seed, and the left third. Cut the majority of the meat away from the pit, by sliding the knife right along the flat side of the seed. Toss the seed. Then score the cut side of the pulp with a knife in a criss-cross pattern, being careful not to cut all the way through the skin. Now simply push the fruit from the skin, turning the fruit inside out.
Revered not only for their exotic sweetness and for juicy quality, mangoes are known for their many health blessings. They contain an enzyme similar to papain in papayas, a soothing digestive aid. Mango’s proteolysis enzymes break down proteins, and are effective meat tenderizers. Mangos from India are used as blood builders. Because of their high iron content, and are often suggested for treatment of anemia.

Berries are rich in polyshenol which are powerful fights against risk of cardiovascular disease and high in phytonutients. A recent study documented that participants who consumed a couple servings of berries each day for two months, had a favorable changes in platelet function and a decrease in blood pressure. They had a 5.2 percent increase in levels of HDL cholesterol. The non-berry eaters had a rise in their HDL of 0.6 % in HDL on the exact same diet.

#34 Are you chicken about eating raw eggs?
Are You Chicken About Eating Eggs RAW?
Among numerous health myths, I want to talk about eggs. The American Heart Association has said for years that eating eggs will cause heart and blood pressure problems. I had a very skinny gentleman who was a principal of a school who went without eggs for four years. In an extreme effort to follow the doc's heart diet, he didn’t eat any desserts or pasta products. His LDL got worse. Then he cut out meat except for an occasional fish. Every time he came in for blood work, his LDL and triglycerides would get higher. The drugs didn't work to keep it down either. He would eat less and less eggs and meat and more carb food. The doctors would up his medication, but never deal with the under lying problems. Sorry to say he died of mis-information and heart problems. If you are an “O” blood type, you will need protein along with the Raw Liquid Light Smoothie (or by noon, you will be starved.) There are many possibilities for protein. The base could be Whey or Hemp protein powders,chia seeds, nuts, or eggs. If you are blood type B and A or AB you will not need as much protein -- your energy doesn't come from protein. All my smoothie recipes are individually made so that they fit you...........so experiment and find out what works and what doesn't....
Real Research Says Eggs Are Good For You
Research NOT bought by pharmaceutical industry money says:
1. Eggs benefit the heart by increasing fat soluble vitamins
2. Eggs have NO effect on the bad Cholesterol (LDL)
3. Eggs increase total and good cholesterol
4. Normal egg consumption decreases heart disease
5. Cooked eggs denatures the protein making unusual compounds that are unhealthy
True Free-Range Egg Are far more nutritional than commercially raised eggs. The U.S. Department of Agriculture tested range free, omega3, and commercially raised eggs. Hens that run free on pasture contain
1/3 less cholesterol
1/4 less saturated fat
2/3 more vitamin A
Two times more omega 3 fatty acid
Three times more vitamin E
Seven time more beta carotene
Huge amounts of lutein and zeaxanthin for the eyes
Do You Have Egg Allergies?
Raw eggs are phenomenally inexpensive and incredible source of many nutrients. Many people are allergic to eggs. Heating the egg protein actually changes its chemical shape and the distortion leads to the body not recognizing the chemical and thinking it is a foreign toxin or a non-food substance. The incidence actually disappears when they try them raw. So once again, mis-information gave you the wrong conclusion.
What About Salmonella?
This serious infection in eggs comes from contamination. One in every 30,000 eggs is infected with salmonella in mass produced, commercially raised hens. These hens are unable to more in multi-layer itty-bitty metal cages. Sick chickens lay salmonella eggs. Range free organically fed, healthy chickens lay healthy eggs. In cage free birds the problem just doesn’t happen. When I visited China everywhere I went there were unrefrigerated cooked eggs sitting out, for days. Blew the socks off me. My foreign exchange student was totally amazed at my questions about Salmonella, she had never heard of it. Only greedy American’s with mass chicken productions have Salmonella.
What Is The Real Definition Of Free-Range Eggs?
Don’t be fooled by the egg industry’s double-speak definitions,
of what free-range really is. True free-range eggs are from hens that range freely outdoors on a pasture where they can forage for their natural diet, which includes seeds, green plants, insects, and worms. A hen that is let outside into a barren lot for a few minutes a day but is fed a diet of corn, soy, and cottonseed meals, plus synthetic additives, is NOT a free-range hen, and will not produce the same quality eggs as its foraging counterpart.
Avoid all omega-3 eggs, as they are actually LESS healthy for you. Typically, the animals are fed poor-quality sources of omega 3 fats that are already oxidized. In addition omega 3 eggs do not last anywhere near as long as non-omega 3 eggs. If you have to purchase your eggs from a commercial grocery store, I would advise getting free-range organic. Ideally, if at all possible it would be far preferable to purchase your eggs directly from your local hen house down the street. When you first buy homegrown range free eggs, you’re going to see a huge difference. My husband grew up on watery thin semi-yellow store eggs with clean white shells. Complaining when I started bringing them home, he wanted the watered down, thin shelled ones. He didn’t like the dirty green shells that were extra hard. The farm yolks were bright yellow and super thick, sticking to the bowl, hard to wash out. Expect to do some retraining to the untrained brain.
Don't BE CHICKEN
Fresh raw egg yolks taste like vanilla. They should be eaten in my Liquid Light Smoothies in the "Rocky Style,” or combined with avocado or in a shake with your fruits and veggies. However, egg protein is easily damaged on a molecular level, even by mixing/blending, so at the end of mixing you quickly stir them in with the blender instead of whipping them wildly with all the other ingredients.
If you choose not to eat your eggs raw, cooking them soft-boiled would be your next best option. Scrambling your eggs is one of the worst ways to eat eggs as it actually oxidizes the cholesterol in the egg yolk. If you have high cholesterol this may actually be a problem for you, as the oxidized cholesterol may cause some damage in your body. BAM Don’t be chicken of eggs -- the truth will set you free.
APPLE SPICE RAW SMOOTHIE
In the fall when I have tons of apples this recipe is like eating pure sugar. It is just so sweet you almost can’t drink more than 4 ounces straight - but I indulge
4 apples that are tangy and sour
1/2 to 2 inches of fresh ginger
1/2-teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
An option to increase your protein would be to add 1 T protein powder, 1 egg or 1/2 cup of kefir.
This recipe has 333 calories, 86 carbs, 15 grams of fiber.
Ginger also performs well as an antibiotic agent, a very potent strong antioxidant that seeks out and eliminates free radicals that would otherwise damage healthy cells, and as an anti-inflammatory with pain-relieving properties. As an anti-inflammatory, the herb has been used to help treat both arthritis, and everyday aches and pains. Ginger also benefits colds, flu, and allergies. Known primarily for its ability to alleviate nausea, motion sickness, indigestion, also other digestive problems, ginger has been found to out-perform anti-nausea drugs, and the good news is that it does it without the adverse side effects that accompany western medications! Recent studies, in addition, have found that the ginger root herb can lower blood cholesterol and reduce blood clotting. Ginger has a component similar to the salicylic acid of aspirin, accounting for its blood-thinning properties.
Have you ever seen a skinny pig?
Farmers have known forever that if you give raw potatoes to hogs, they will not gain weight, but if you give them cooked potatoes, they gain weight easily.
Why do farmers know how to fatten their stock but then think the same principle
doesn't apply to themselves?
The Skinny Raw Red Reducer (formerly the Cooked Pig)
This is done with the Champion juicer.
Start with one apple and keep the pulp
1 handful of greens
(juice these early so the veggie pulp has a chance to get it though the champion )
1 cup pumpkin
1/2 small raw sweet potato cut up
2 carrots washed
1 small spring beet
1 six inch zucchini
Toss all the pulp and divide into two glasses
Stir in 1 t. of chia and 1/2 c of red berries to each smoothie
add 1 T. protein powder or raw eggs if you want, and whiz briefly
Homework
By now you should be getting the understanding that raw food is better for you
than cooked and that it helps you maintain a healthy weight.
1. Decrease your animal protein by one meal this week
(Exchange it for nuts or seeds)
2. Increase your fiber intake to 40 grams a day
3. Get at least one (preferable 3)servings of vegetables every day
4. Increase you water intake to 10 - eight ounce glasses of plain 100% water.

#33 Secret Weapon - NINGXIA WOLFBERRY
Secret Weapon #7 Ningxia Wolfberries (Gojo berries)
Do You Remember the Ningxia turtles?
Until recently, Westerners had not heard of Ningxia Wolfberries. They come from Ningxia province like the super Ningxia turtles on TV a few ago. They were super strong good guys. These berries have a remarkable powerhouse of nutrients for health, many which we find deficient in the typical American diet. They come from the foothills of the Himalayas and have been used by Chinese healers for generations.
Analysis shows that this berry has:
3 times the Vitamin A of a carrots;
10 times the vitamin C of an orange,
10 times more Thiamin than any other food.
You don’t need a fiber supplement; Ningxia is a whopping 21 times more than barley and 15times more than oats.
Ningxia Turtle SMOOTHIE
1/2 cup Young Living Gojo berries soaked in warm water
1 cup cashews or walnuts soaked in water over night
(walnuts are super high in Omega 3's)
1/2 avocado
2 T flax seed ground and/or 1 T. Chia seeds
1 handful of spinach, or swiss chard or any other green
2 apples with their skin
1-cup pumpkin without rind or zucchini chopped cut these very thin
2 peeled carrots sliced very very thin
1 stalk celery sliced very thin
1/2 cup of kifer
If you don't have a Champion for juicing chop or slice the vegetables very thin.

This example above, uses flax and chia seeds, these are very important to promote healthy cell membranes and for supporting energy generation within your cells. Cell membranes are primarily made of fats, ( and so is your brain) and these fats come from the food you eat. Poor nutrition, such as low intakes of the health-promoting omega -3 fatty acids may result in brittle, broken (leaky) cell membranes that cannot function appropriately. Fats that support healthy cell membranes can be provided by cold-water fish oils (especially salmon), many nuts and seeds especially flax and chia.
Ningxia Fruit Has More Calcium Than Cottage Cheese These little red berries a rich source of amino acids and protein, with Ningxia having 110mg of calcium (more than spinach at 100 mg.) Amino superstar nitric oxide is important compound for improved relaxation of blood vessels thereby reducing risk of high blood pressure, supporting healthy cholesterol levels and promoting a healthy heart.
Nutritional studies show the low glycemic index of the berry helps in alleviating diabetic symptoms and improving blood sugar levels.
Will it help my eyes? One of the most well-known traditional properties of Goji berry fruit is its ability to improve vision. This has been documented for over fifteen centuries, and now modern scientific studies show that Ningxia berry has 10 times more Xeaxanthin than most green foods. It also contains another great antioxidant nutrient for eye health called Lutein, this helps with age related macular degeneration. Raw eggs contain alot of this but Ningxia has 14 times more, with 27,800 mg.
See The Light -- Do your take your vision for granted?
Breakfast truly effects cataract and macular degeneration. That’s right I’m going to tell you if you eat a ton of animal food, your going to need glasses. Around the macular are fatty acids that are greatly affected by free radicals. But fortunately, these free radicals can be intercepted and stopped cold with antioxidant sponges found in fruits and vegetables -- they will intercept the bad guys. 88% of blindness is preventable. Studies, assessing diet and nutrients in the blood, show that 88% of blindness in macular degeneration can be prevented by eating the right food. The veins in your eyes are dinky. They allow one red blood cell in at a time. These veins become clogged just like the arteries in the heart. Decreasing your blood pressure and the cholesterol will allow more oxygen and nutrients into the eyes and they will function better.
Goji is being investigated as a food that is capable of reducing the incidence of cancer and also as a means of halting or reversing the growth of cancers. Another benefits of ningxia berries are they can help neutralize the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation.
Why You Might Add Ningxia Berries To Your Diet ?
1. To improve overall eye health
2. To boost immune system
3. To feel more energy
4. Help heal injury or surgery
5. Help remove heavy – metal poisoning or severe toxicity
6. Stop platelets from sticking together
7. Neutralize side effects of Chemotherapy and radiation
8. Normalize blood pressure
9. Help balance blood sugars
10. Lower cholesterol and blood lipids
There are many different brands of wolfberries from China, most are not power packed and healthy as the Ningxia ones. You have to watch products from China. To make sure your getting your moneys worth, go to my website you can get them there at wholesale.
There is also a Ningxia food puree that is sold in the bottle. This is sold in glass bottle and has not been heated (pasteurized) or had all the oxygen sucked out and mishandled like most juices. It has Wolf berries, blueberries, pomegranate, red raspberries apricots and dark grapes in it. When 1 oz of this is added to any smoothie you super size it and you immediately feel the difference. As far as I know it is the only product like it anywhere. John and I drink 1 oz every morning faithfully. If you are interested in this e-mail me at hrevard@gmail.com.
When a family member has the flu and is vomiting. A wonderful way to start back to health is to mix a full 8 oz of water with 1 oz of Ningxia and 1/2 a lemon. It has all the nutrients and electrolytes you will need when you begin liquids.

#32 Cabbage better than pills
Cabbage Outworks A $40 Pill Sauerkraut is easy and especially free if you have read my book Frugal Raw Feast. Sauerkraut is literally “sour cabbage” and since you have read Frugal Free Feast and now have FREE carloads of cabbage you’re going to be looking for ways to fix it. I usually make about 90 quarts a summer. We love sauerkraut with country style pork chop at dinner and John will eat kraut with his eggs instead of potatoes.
Raw homegrown and homemade Kraut has healthy pro-biotic bacteria. Store bought or cooked sauerkraut does not, the heat killed the good bugs. Cabbage is allowed to ferment in it own juice plus salt and some herb seasoning. The fermentation process makes it easy to digest and full of live pro-biotics.
Materials you will need
a large crock
a plate which will just fit inside the crock
a jar filled with water to use as a weight to fin on top of the dish
a towel or cloth to fit over the crock
a food processor to chop the hard fibrous vegetables like carrots, beets, broccoli, cauliflower, turnips and of course FREE Cabbage into small pieces
Start by removing the large outer cabbage leave and save them for use on the very top layers, at the end. Cut cabbage and veggies into small pieces. The cabbage should be real firm and fresh not more than 48 hours old. Work with about 5 pounds at a time. Cut head in quarters and remove the tough inner core. You may use a champion juicer with the flat plate to crush some of the vegetables. This juice is what activates the fermentation.
With a hammer or potato, masher firmly hit the cabbage until some of the liquid starts seeping out. Pack it firmly and smash it after every layer with salt. For each 25 pounds alternate with ¾ cup of salt. I have a large 5 gallon crock. With a clean food wrapped in a plastic bag I stand on the small cabbage pieces and press it down tightly.
Repeatedly pushing down every layer remove all the air from the veggies until it is very compact. Keep packing until you have a least 1/8 inch of juice on the top of the cabbage leaves.
Apply the huge outer cabbage leaves and the top with the plate on top of it all. Put the weighted jar on top of the plate and cover with a towel. Taste is the main way to know if the batch is ready.
Store at 70 to 75 degrees F. while fermenting. At this point, many books differ. On real hot days it can only take four days. Some books say at the temperatures of 75 degrees it will take 1 to 4 weeks. At 60 to 65 degrees in Colorado blizzard, it will take 2 to 6 weeks, at 60 degrees or less it will not ferment. You will have to experiment. Two years ago, our summer was very hot, I stored the crock up in my pantry, and the kraut became soft and sour in 3 weeks. Last year I stored it in the basement and it was ready in two weeks. If the fermentation goes to long it will have a spoiled taste. Good sauerkraut will have a zingy crisp taste.
Remove the huge top cabbage leaves and toss. Transfer kraut to a glass container in the refrigerator. Once you put it into the frig, it will slow the fermentation and can be stored for several months.
You will have to check the fermenting process several times a week. In the summer, also watch for little flies, they lay their eggs on the side of the crock – so keep that clean and wiped down. While doing this remove the scum that also forms. This scum does not look appetizing and it grayish white and foamy. Your job is just to remove it, don’t analyze it cuz it is gross. The fermentation is complete when the bubble stop or it tastes zippy and sour.

Carbs Are the MOST Important Thing In Your Diet I bet you didn't ever expect to hear that from me. I can teach you this because all carbs are not created equal. Carbs found in thier natural form contain most of the essential nutrients and specialized chemical that keep you healthy and give you energy. But processed and refined carbs slow down your metabolism and contribute to every major disease associated with aging, including diabetes, heart disease, dementia, and cancer. If I say the word carb, you think bread and white flour, white sugar and candy. These carbs are unhealthy and are the lest important thing in your diet. Ever hear that carbs are empty calories? What are they empty of? There are empty of vitamins, mineral and phytonutrients. The important carbs are vegetables and fruits that can be considered carbs. If you want to be healthy you must eat healthy carbs because they contain, enzymes, vitamins, and phytonutients. Healthy carb vegetables have an abundance of obesity-fighty chemicals, vitamins, and mineral that can accelerate your metabolism (increasing energy) and provide plenty of fiber that will slow the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream. The key to eating carbs is to eat plants and avoid empty processed white flours and sugar foods.
Healthy Carbs = Phytonutients
Did you know that if these are missing from your diet, the consequences can be quite weighty? No pun intended of course! First of all, let's discuss what phytonutrients are. They are vibrantly colored plants and foods carrying bioactive chemical compounds proven to be beneficial to our health and well-being. The antioxidants found in these plants protects the cells in our body, from the damaging effects of oxidation (the little unprotected reactors that produce energy for each cell in your body.) These phytonutrients have also been proven to be a powerful blow to fat. In the journal of Nutrition Research, they discuss a study that included women eating raw fruits and vegetables, verses another set of women, who ate health food bars. The results were pretty astounding. On an average, the women who ate the raw fruits and vegetables (filled with phytonutrients) lost 22% more fat than the group who ate health food bars.
How do the phytonutrients in pumpkin, beets, yams, squash, nuts and seeds, work?
1) They fight infections in the body that lead to inflammation, which in turn leads to fat storage.
2) They have enzymes that detoxify the body and strengthen the liver.
3) They provide a power boost to the thyroid and adrenal glands.
4) They empower the genes that turn off fat storage, and promote fat burn to occur instead.
5) They trigger the body's internal mechanism to eat less, yet have the feeling of being full.
6) They create vital sources of nutrients which fight cancer cells
7) They strengthen red blood cells
Begin filling your smoothies with the above foods and watch the weight disappear. Not only will you experience predominate weight loss ... you'll also feel energized, experience clarity in your thoughts, manage stress much easier, and feel an overall feeling of wellness in your body. Studies have also shown that people who have incorporated phytonutirnets into their diets have also seen improvements in glucose control. Unstable molecules found around the bodies little nuclear reactors are controlled by these phytonutients. They inhibit the oxidation of LDL choleterol in the blood and since oxidized LDL cholesterol is much more likely to form artery blocking plaque, preventing oxidation is important -- if not more important than lowering the amount of LDL cholesterol and decreasing high blood pressure. This all sound like significant reductions for heart health.
PUMPKIN PIE HIGH RAW SMOOTHIE
I use fresh pumpkin from my garden. Hacking the guy with a huge sharp knife my husband opens him up, and chops him into about 20 pieces. Then I cut the thick outer skin off all of the pumpkin and cut him into inch piece that will go thought my juicer without problems. I keep him in a large tupperware and a good size pumpkin will last about four days or eight shakes The bright orange color of pumpkin is a dead giveaway that pumpkin is loaded with an important antioxidant, phytonutrient, beta-carotene that converts carotenoids into vitamin A protecting the body from cancer, aging, and heart disease.
2 cups fresh pumpkin pieces
One-inch fresh ginger
4 fresh carrots washed
1/8 fresh sliced cabbage
1 apple
Run the above though the juicer and pour the into 20 oz drinking glasses
I save the apple pulp and give it to my Dogs for breakfast along with their raw meat or egg. I discard the rest of the pulp in the compost pile.
Back to the raw smoothie, in the 20 oz glass divide the rest of the ingredients
1 teaspoon cinnamon or 4 drops cinnamon essential oils
1 teaspoon nutmeg or 4 drops nutmeg essential oils
2 raw eggs, one for each glass
For a little pucker try adding 1/2 cup of raw cranberries also.
Could You Have A Short Circuit? Food metabolism is very much like the progression of a boat going though a series of locks in a river. At each point, a key is used to allow the boat to go to the next level. Without the key (or in this case the enzyme) nothing happens. Without enzyme reaction in your body, nothing happens. Your brain doesn’t function fast, your bones hurt, organs are not up to par and your food rots, giving you gas. You can’t produce energy without enzymes. Raw veggies and fruits maintain your body’s balance.
Jump Start Digestion Here comes a forkful of food. A nice raw carrot. Your eyes and nose have checked out the situation and in response, your mouth begins to water. Saliva and enzymes juices are secreted and ready to mix with the food. The tongue starts the food down the 30 foot enclosed assembly line. Any carrot comes with his own enzymes. It takes care of its own digestion, metabolizing and assimilation. Now imagine that same carrot stir-fried or cooked in a delicious carrot cake. The body must produce the enzymes to get the nutrients out of it. It takes twice as much work to get half as much yield. Without adequate digestion, good health is impossible. The best dietary intake will have little value without enzymes.
Can You Chew Your Way To Better Health Chewing causes an involuntary secretion of pancreatic fluids, intestinal secretions, and bile, all needed to break up the food and release energy. The longer you chew your food the longer the enzymes in your mouth can work on that food, breaking up the starches even before they are swallowed. Chewing is critical for digestion of all food because enzymes only act on the surface of the food particles. The more time spent chewing the more the food is broken down and the more surface area the enzymes can get to. Here is the analogy. Imagine putting an orange in the blender. Would it be able to chop it up very well? Of course not. However, put little pieces into the blender and you will have orange puree in no time.
You’ve Got Two Tummy’s? Contrary to the myth that your stomach is simply one big round container, you have two tummy parts. Your tummy is shaped like a “C” facing backwards. There is the upper part of the “C” which retains food for 30 to 60 minutes, with a PH of 5. In a chicken, this is called a crop and in a cow, it’s the rumen. 60% of your carbs and 30% of your proteins are digested here. If in the top there are no enzymes and no churning, how does the food get digested? When raw liquid light food comes in, they bring their own built in raw liquid light enzymes and there is a lot of active digestion. When lots of fresh raw food is eaten, you can feel the difference. When cooked food is eaten – there is no action and everything just sits there rotting. When food is consistently void of enzymes, this causes the pancreas and endocrine glands such as the adrenals and pituitary to have to overwork.
Lower “C “ Gravity moves the food around the corner of the “C” into the holding lower chamber that if full of hydrochloric acid. Ptoteolytic enzymes break down protein, Lipolytic enzymes breakdown triglycerides, cholesterol, fats, and oils. Amylolytic enzymes or amylase decomposes carbohydrates, such as sugar, the lactose from milk, the sugars from fruits, and starches. As it enters the intestines, secretions causes the pancreas to produce a thick watery juice that has sodium bicarbonate, which helps, neutralize the hydrochloric acid in the food (chyme.) This new PH helps all the food digestive enzymes work twice as well and the food is absorbed into the blood stream.
Homework
l. The next time you have a smoothie try chewing it. Also when your at the
table for dinner be aware of how many times you chew a mouthful. Without telling, watch your family and how long they chew. Be aware of how long a meal takes to eat. Remember your tummy doesn't know that it is no longer hungery until the food has been there at least 10 minutes.
2. Try juicing cabbage you will find that it is sweet - just toss the pulp
3. If you have never eaten Kraut -- give it a try.
Raw homegrown and homemade Kraut has healthy pro-biotic bacteria. Store bought or cooked sauerkraut does not, the heat killed the good bugs. Cabbage is allowed to ferment in it own juice plus salt and some herb seasoning. The fermentation process makes it easy to digest and full of live pro-biotics.

#31 Secret Weapon - Kefir
Your GI Tract Began Sterile
The moment after your birth, bugs were introduced into your tummy with breast milk. After that, you spend your life trashing your body with bad stuff. Poor dietary choices and other lifestyle choices have caused the wrong bacteria to come right down the esophagus. Undesirable bugs compete for a place to hang their hat on the intestinal wall. Many foods would normally contain healthy bugs, but because of mass production, canning, and pasteurization the good bugs have been killed. Bad bugs came in like food -poisoning. Healthy tiny itty-bitty microscopic bugs are found in the Kifer. We put a high concentration of these healthy bugs back in every morning.
Yogurts Dirty Little Secret
The term pro-biotic comes from the Greek work “for life.” If you’re a thinking kind of person, you probably are thinking, that antibiotic means anti-life. When they make fermented milk, the result is a solution full of enzymes and life, people in the Balkan countries did this for hundreds of years.
Yogurt’s Problem – Digestion
To make a pro-biotic effective it has to make it through the stomach’s acidity and still keep on ticking like the every ready battery. 1/10 or 1% of the pro-biotic found in Yogurt is functioning when it arrives in your intestines, where it needs to go to work. If I said that, you could have 1/10 of 1% of a thousand dollars, how much money would you get? BAM Wisdom opens your eyes to the industries lies.
Secret Weapon #6 Kefir
Kefir – Milks Try For Immortality
Originally Kefir was obtained by adding pro-biotic grains to fresh milk and then incubating them at 64 – 75 degrees for twenty-four hours. Kefir is very much like yogurt but it has a bit more liquid and it has a light fizzy taste. Kefir can be made from goat, cow, ox’s, sheep and from an unusual source -- young coconut water or fruit juices. You will find kefir, in the grocery store -- it will be in the refrigerator right next to the yogurt or milk. It comes in a thirty-two ounce white milk plastic jug.
How This Affects You ?
Analogous to grapes and wine, yogurt is like wine and kefir is like champagne. The health benefits are all in favor of Kefir, while yogurt is just more along the lines of a sweet digestible form of milk. If you were looking at the two products as a chemist, you would see that they are mirrored images of each other. Yogurt rotates to the left and kefir goes to the right. They are both lactic acid cultures composed of the same number of carbon, oxygen and halogen elements only mirror opposites. Kefir locks the oxygen into the cells for curative benefits, as well as nutritional ones.
Why Does Yogurt Not Cut The Mustard?
Both kefir and yogurt are cultured milk products but the deliver their goodies differently. The digestive enzymes in the yogurt help digest the yogurt. However, only the yogurt. The yogurt probiotic is all used up in no time flat during digestion, but the kefir lasts indefinitely in your body.
35 Different Bugs In Kefir Yogurt has a few bacteria, but Kefir is super changed with energy antibiotic colonic cleansers. It has Lactobacoillus, Causasus, leuconostoc, Acetbacter species, and Streptococcus species. Kefir comes with a ton more enzymes than yogurt, these make the colon wall sticky like fly paper. Smart Yeast Makes the Fizz. Saccharomyces are the beneficial yeast found in Kefir. They help dominate, control, and eliminate destructive pathogenic yeast in the body. These penetrate the mucosal lining, make the decision if a yeast of bacteria bad or good, and then wipe out the bad guys. Then the body becomes more efficient in resisting such pathogens as E.coli and intestinal parasites. The www.bodyecology.com describes much more about kefir and how it's smart yeast destroys candida albicans. She has a great web site and many books that will document and inform you.
Kefir Jump-start Digestion by:
Stimulating salivary enzyme flow
Starting waves of muscular contractions in the intestinal tract
Increasing the flow of digestive enzymes juices to fight constipation, candidia, and parasites
Pro-biotics and Viruses
Ever had food poisoning? Taking a pro-biotic every thirty minutes will let the smart bugs take care of the bad bugs and you will feel better in no time flat. New nursing moms, have you ever had your baby become sick and vomit? Baby pro-biotics or big people pro-biotics will stop that nasty problem. The good bugs go in and take care of what every problem the bad bacteria are causing.
Probiotics are good so Industry make a pill just for you........
If you’re a health conscious person, you have probably seen the hype over pro-biotic supplements. We have been told that we are not digesting our food properly, and that our enzyme stores have run out. The assumption is that we need to take pro-biotic supplements the rest of our lives. Of course, industry wants to make money. They claim pro-biotic pills are better than real food. My theory is that whole food is always better than a worked up, processed product. Sally Fallon and Weston A. Price, along with Donna Gates at Body Ecology believe food is better than a processed pill. Cultured foods will actually add back enzymes stored into the enzyme banks of the body and aid the body in digestion. The kefir is superior to the processed pro-biotic pill. I believe that the probiotics have their place and have found them very convenient when I travel.
Pro-biotic Companies Claim More Bugs
To answer this claim we went digging into the scientific literature and several different references. I was able to determine that an average fermentation concentration good bugs is about 3 billion cfu/ml for yogurt. What does that mean in English? If you eat a small bowl (500ml) of Kefir in a twenty-four hour period, you would have received 1.4 trillion beneficial bacteria. 100 times more bacteria than the average processed pro-biotic pill labeled 150 billion per capsule. Furthermore, freshly made kefir can have an average microbial count as high as 10 billion cfu/ml. This includes a mixture of various bacteria and smart yeast strains. This means that a 500 ml glass of homemade kefir could contain as many as five trillion beneficial microorganisms or even more. I am very fond of Gary Young and his company Youngliving. They usually do everything first rate. However, I was disappointed in their pro-biotic. It like most of the pills, it have five million different bacteria with 2 kinds being the majority of the bugs. This probiotic recommends that you take it 2 to 5 times a day. From my study, taking a pro-biotic any other time than bedtime is a waste of money. Metagenics has Ultra Flora Plus with FOS, which is the best product I have taken for many years. It has two bacteria that equal 1.5 million and it suggests that it should be taken at bedtime.
Claim #2
Pro-biotic companies claim that kefir's bacteria are digested and that the bacteria is no longer any good. Their enteric-coated capsules and special design allow their pill bacteria to survive down in the lower part of the tummy where the acid is found. Again, to answer this claim I checked the scientific literature not paid for by the companies. Fermented milk products have many properties that might help this bacteria survive deep into the GI tract? (Remember that In general, less bacteria was alive in Yogurt.) Fermented milk contains many substances that nourish and protect the lactobacillus species. A recent study demonstrated the ability of calcium phosphate to protect lactobacillus acidophilus from bile acid but had no effect on salmonella. Milk products also serve as excellent buffering against and will help neutralize stomach acidity.
Kefir Kills H.Pilori --
The Little Green Pill Can Not the green pill will control the symptoms only....
Pro-biotic supplements offer just one thing made by man in a lab. Fermented milk offers so much more than just bacteria, it contains mineral, vitamins, protein, amino acids, L-carnitine, fats, CLA, and anti-microbial agents. In a 2000 study led by Dr. Chitra Wendakoon at the University of Alberta, Lactobacilli in fermented Kefir showed beneficial bacteria that effect H pylori and other germs. The pro-biotic pills with lactobacilli alone did not have antibiotic effects. In addition, the complex micro-flora found in kefir have demonstrated a keen ability to stimulate our immune systems, that wards off infection from bacteria, and salmonella. Those folks with Reflux problems would then benefit from the real thing, but not the pill. CA-CHING Knowledge pulls the covers off the drug companies’ propaganda.
Homework
The next time your at Kings go to the very north east corner of the building.
On the bottom refrigerated shelf you will find 10 kinds of Kefir. Take one home
and give it a try........

To make a pro-biotic effective it has to make it through the stomach’s acidity and still keep on ticking like the every ready battery. 1/10 or 1% of the pro-biotic found in Yogurt is functioning when it arrives in your intestines, where it needs to go to work. If I said that, you could have 1/10 of 1% of a thousand dollars, how much money would you get? BAM Wisdom opens your eyes to the industries lies.
Secret Weapon #6 Kefir
Kefir – Milks Try For Immortality
Originally Kefir was obtained by adding pro-biotic grains to fresh milk and then incubating them at 64 – 75 degrees for twenty-four hours. Kefir is very much like yogurt but it has a bit more liquid and it has a light fizzy taste. Kefir can be made from goat, cow, ox’s, sheep and from an unusual source -- young coconut water or fruit juices. You will find kefir, in the grocery store -- it will be in the refrigerator right next to the yogurt or milk. It comes in a thirty-two ounce white milk plastic jug.
How This Affects You ?
Analogous to grapes and wine, yogurt is like wine and kefir is like champagne. The health benefits are all in favor of Kefir, while yogurt is just more along the lines of a sweet digestible form of milk. If you were looking at the two products as a chemist, you would see that they are mirrored images of each other. Yogurt rotates to the left and kefir goes to the right. They are both lactic acid cultures composed of the same number of carbon, oxygen and halogen elements only mirror opposites. Kefir locks the oxygen into the cells for curative benefits, as well as nutritional ones.
Why Does Yogurt Not Cut The Mustard?
Both kefir and yogurt are cultured milk products but the deliver their goodies differently. The digestive enzymes in the yogurt help digest the yogurt. However, only the yogurt. The yogurt probiotic is all used up in no time flat during digestion, but the kefir lasts indefinitely in your body.
35 Different Bugs In Kefir Yogurt has a few bacteria, but Kefir is super changed with energy antibiotic colonic cleansers. It has Lactobacoillus, Causasus, leuconostoc, Acetbacter species, and Streptococcus species. Kefir comes with a ton more enzymes than yogurt, these make the colon wall sticky like fly paper. Smart Yeast Makes the Fizz. Saccharomyces are the beneficial yeast found in Kefir. They help dominate, control, and eliminate destructive pathogenic yeast in the body. These penetrate the mucosal lining, make the decision if a yeast of bacteria bad or good, and then wipe out the bad guys. Then the body becomes more efficient in resisting such pathogens as E.coli and intestinal parasites. The www.bodyecology.com describes much more about kefir and how it's smart yeast destroys candida albicans. She has a great web site and many books that will document and inform you.
Kefir Jump-start Digestion by:
Stimulating salivary enzyme flow
Starting waves of muscular contractions in the intestinal tract
Increasing the flow of digestive enzymes juices to fight constipation, candidia, and parasites
Pro-biotics and Viruses
Ever had food poisoning? Taking a pro-biotic every thirty minutes will let the smart bugs take care of the bad bugs and you will feel better in no time flat. New nursing moms, have you ever had your baby become sick and vomit? Baby pro-biotics or big people pro-biotics will stop that nasty problem. The good bugs go in and take care of what every problem the bad bacteria are causing.
Probiotics are good so Industry make a pill just for you........
If you’re a health conscious person, you have probably seen the hype over pro-biotic supplements. We have been told that we are not digesting our food properly, and that our enzyme stores have run out. The assumption is that we need to take pro-biotic supplements the rest of our lives. Of course, industry wants to make money. They claim pro-biotic pills are better than real food. My theory is that whole food is always better than a worked up, processed product. Sally Fallon and Weston A. Price, along with Donna Gates at Body Ecology believe food is better than a processed pill. Cultured foods will actually add back enzymes stored into the enzyme banks of the body and aid the body in digestion. The kefir is superior to the processed pro-biotic pill. I believe that the probiotics have their place and have found them very convenient when I travel.
Pro-biotic Companies Claim More Bugs
To answer this claim we went digging into the scientific literature and several different references. I was able to determine that an average fermentation concentration good bugs is about 3 billion cfu/ml for yogurt. What does that mean in English? If you eat a small bowl (500ml) of Kefir in a twenty-four hour period, you would have received 1.4 trillion beneficial bacteria. 100 times more bacteria than the average processed pro-biotic pill labeled 150 billion per capsule. Furthermore, freshly made kefir can have an average microbial count as high as 10 billion cfu/ml. This includes a mixture of various bacteria and smart yeast strains. This means that a 500 ml glass of homemade kefir could contain as many as five trillion beneficial microorganisms or even more. I am very fond of Gary Young and his company Youngliving. They usually do everything first rate. However, I was disappointed in their pro-biotic. It like most of the pills, it have five million different bacteria with 2 kinds being the majority of the bugs. This probiotic recommends that you take it 2 to 5 times a day. From my study, taking a pro-biotic any other time than bedtime is a waste of money. Metagenics has Ultra Flora Plus with FOS, which is the best product I have taken for many years. It has two bacteria that equal 1.5 million and it suggests that it should be taken at bedtime.
Claim #2
Pro-biotic companies claim that kefir's bacteria are digested and that the bacteria is no longer any good. Their enteric-coated capsules and special design allow their pill bacteria to survive down in the lower part of the tummy where the acid is found. Again, to answer this claim I checked the scientific literature not paid for by the companies. Fermented milk products have many properties that might help this bacteria survive deep into the GI tract? (Remember that In general, less bacteria was alive in Yogurt.) Fermented milk contains many substances that nourish and protect the lactobacillus species. A recent study demonstrated the ability of calcium phosphate to protect lactobacillus acidophilus from bile acid but had no effect on salmonella. Milk products also serve as excellent buffering against and will help neutralize stomach acidity.
Kefir Kills H.Pilori --
The Little Green Pill Can Not the green pill will control the symptoms only....
Pro-biotic supplements offer just one thing made by man in a lab. Fermented milk offers so much more than just bacteria, it contains mineral, vitamins, protein, amino acids, L-carnitine, fats, CLA, and anti-microbial agents. In a 2000 study led by Dr. Chitra Wendakoon at the University of Alberta, Lactobacilli in fermented Kefir showed beneficial bacteria that effect H pylori and other germs. The pro-biotic pills with lactobacilli alone did not have antibiotic effects. In addition, the complex micro-flora found in kefir have demonstrated a keen ability to stimulate our immune systems, that wards off infection from bacteria, and salmonella. Those folks with Reflux problems would then benefit from the real thing, but not the pill. CA-CHING Knowledge pulls the covers off the drug companies’ propaganda.
Homework
The next time your at Kings go to the very north east corner of the building.
On the bottom refrigerated shelf you will find 10 kinds of Kefir. Take one home
and give it a try........

#29 secret weapon - enzymes
LET’S GET BACK TO RAW VEGGIES AND ENZYMES
Secret Weapon #5 Enzymes
Enzymes are the spark of life. The Greek word for enzymes means to cause to change. They are the catalysts that enables cells to work and chemical reactions to happen without themselves being consumed in the process. They are the spark of every biochemical reaction.
TOP 20 Enzyme Food
Fruits
Banana
Apple
Watermelon
Orange
Grape
Grapefruit
Peach
Pear
Vegetables with enzymes
Tomato
Onion
Carrot
Celery
Lettuce and other greens
Broccoli
Cabbage
Cucumber
If you don’t eat raw what is the next best way to gain live enzymes? Plant digestive enzymes pills are actually concentrated food enzymes from nature. I dont recommend, animal enzymes because they come from the animal pancreas products taken from animals at slaughterhouses.
Reasons for Taking Plant Enzyme Supplements
1. Anyone eating cooked food needs enzymes for digestion
2. Age correlates with decrease enzyme reserve -- anybody over 40
3. Illness and disease cause enzymes depletion.
4. Allergies are associated with incomplete digestion subside
Who Will Benefit From Supplements?
1. Anybody with an Endocrine Imbalance
2. Anyone with blood sugar problems or diabetes
3. Those with excess cholesterol or triglycerides
4. Anyone with Arthritic Inflammation and PAIN
5. Anyone with allergies or asthma
6. People with digestive disturbances or food allergies
There is no digestive Leukocytosis when you eat raw food.
From the 1930’s, it has been documented that eating caused the white blood cells to increase in the body. Now, it has been proven that eating food that is raw does not cause this. This Immune battle takes tons of energy first thing in the morning, and I’m not willing to share my morning energy need with my immune system.
What Are Your Enemies Of Digestion?
Lack of chewing - snarfing food down in a hurry
Lack of Enzymes from getting older
Excess acidity from disease, lifestyle, stress, and lack of vegetables in the diet
Celiac Disease and other diseases
Lactose Intolerance or allergies
Over worked and no sleep or rest
Can Enzymes Stop YOUR Inflammation?
Many studies have proved that enzymes decrease pain. A well know study had 100 healthy Karate kids who were put into the ring to fight. 50 were given enzymes a week before the spar. The other 50 were not. The healing time for the comparable injuries were evaluated. The enzymes basically cut the healing time in 1/2. If that was my body I would be impressed.
Enzymes and Knee Surgery After surgery, rapid decrease of wound edema is a sign that tells a medical person that there will be early functional mobility. As a surgical patient, this person will have less pain and less problems in healing. In our next study on healing, 50% of the preoperative patients were given enzymes for two weeks before surgery and 2 weeks after their knee surgery. Those without enzymes were not able to bend their knee after surgery until the ninth day. The patients with the enzyme supplement were able to more their knee 90% by the seventh day, proving that enzymes provide faster healing and less pain during surgery.
Raw Veggie Enzymes Fix Wounds Fibrin, is the glue our blood produces for coagulation, is required by the body for sealing wounds. Our bodies maintain an equilibrium that allows the blood to flow at a perfect viscosity. If there is not enough fibrin you would bleed to death, fibrin overproduction would be a fatal heart disease.
At 60 your body makes a fraction of the enzymes you had when you were young. The results are obvious. The blood flows more sluggishly, toxic debris tends to remain in the vessels, and the vessels become narrower and harder. Injuries and disease tend to compound the problem leading to insufficient blood flow to the heart. Enzymes from the Raw L.L. smoothies will keep your viscosity at the perfect amount.
RAW FOOD SHOULD BE REQUIRED AFTER EVERY SURGERY
1. Inhibits inflammation without immune suppression.
2. Reduces edema.
3. Inhibits thrombi formation and stimulates thrombolysis
4. Improves blood supply to hurt tissue
5. Improves blood circulation
6. Accelerate the inflammation process for faster healing.
Boxers Without Bruises Boxers injected with enzymes immediately after injury had their black eyes and bruises gone in one to three days, rather than the usual 10 to 14 days.
Swimmer Scores A world -class swimmer developed shoulder pain, this came from repeatedly raising the arms. He experienced extreme pain in both shoulders and was very concerned because the national championships were within a month’s time. He wanted to qualify for the national swim team. He was put on enzymes and within a week, the pain had almost gone, in spite of continued workouts. By the second week, he was totally pain free.
Football Injuries Heal Faster Than the Doc Expected Mike played middle linebacker for a local high school and his knee was violently injured during a game. When his knee immediately began to swell the team doctor took Mike out for the season. Understanding about pain, inflammation and enzymes, Mike's Mom began giving him high doses of enzymes immediately after the game. On Monday he returned to play, the doctor was amazed at Mike’s rapid improvement. By Tuesday, he was pain free and he was allowed to practice that Friday.
Protocol for Enzymes and Injuries
1. Take enzymes as early as possible
2. Take high doses initially
3. Take supplements 1/2 hour before food and 1 1/2 hours after food
4. Eat lots of raw fruits and vegetables
Inflammation In Your Body Does:
1. Kills brain cells (I need all I still have)
2. Thickens blood with increased fibrinogen
3. Causes arterial plaque that might break off leading to stroke
4. Increases COX2 leading to rapid abnormal cell production.
5. Promotes free radical damage
Liquid Light Smoothies Provide Enzymes
Inflammation causes disease. Inflammation is highly treatable and a correctable condition when you eat raw vegetables that are packing a full punch of MHz enzymes. Remember cooking kills all enzymes. Veggie Smoothies are the real food relief packaged in a yummy drink.
Would You Rather Take a Pill than CHANGE?
Based on the past did your pill help change the underlying problem?
Taking anti-inflammatory pills like Aspirin or Ibuprofen causes:
1. Poor carb metabolism that may lead to glucose intolerance
2. Poor protein metabolism and muscle fatigue
3. Cause poof fat metabolism leading to weight gain
4. Suppress immune system
5. Cause bloating, irritation to the tummy, leading to gastric and duodenal ulcers
6. Increase weak bones
7. Encourage excitable and irregular heart rates
8. Stress the kidney and may cause kidney stones
Can You Afford To Become 1 Out Of 4?
Hundreds of reliable studies have showed that 30 to 40 percent of patients become resistant to aspirin like medication. When you need medications, you don’t want to have become resistant to them.
Raw Food Enzymes Just For Women
Gynecologist’s all over Europe are using enzyme mixtures to treat female diseases. Enzymes are being used to treat mastopathy, malignant neoplasms, to influence endothelial synthesis, treat dysmenorrhea, and fibrocystic breast disease. Positive results are being obtained from just sensation of pain to treating carcinomas and fibromas.
Raw L.L Smoothies will increase your enzymes.
Cholesterol Can Be Balance By Raw Food Cholesterol can be found in most cardiovascular diseases, but it is a vitally important component of normal blood flow. Cholesterol has pointed crystals that press into the vessel walls, when this happens they lose their elasticity and become covered with greasy fatty looking stuff -- this is the beginning of arteriosclerosis. Fibrinolytic enzyme therapy has been used successfully to treat arteries and veins and can be a lifesaving treatment with pulmonary embolisms, myocardial infarctions. Certain enzyme mixtures increase the fibrinolytic activity of the blood, which normalizes the equilibrium-balancing act. Early intervention with high enzyme liquid light smoothies will help keep the body from getting into heart disease.
As a nurse I've drawn blood on a patient and then gone in and spun the tube in a cintrafuge. Sometimes right after lunch the test tube will be half full of thick glue white looking crisco plaque. When I've asked the patient what he had for lunch it will be the usual fast food sandwich along with super sized greesed french fries. This thick greasy stuff doesn't just disappear.
Blood Clots Benefit from Smoothies Raw Liquid Light Smoothies with tons of enzymes are used when there is a lymphatic system that has become over-burdened and there has been a chronic inflammatory reaction. Enzyme therapy is beneficial even in advanced stages of a blood clot. After 7 to 14 day, the leg swelling will reduce by more than 50% and the pain will decrease. Further, there will be a decrease in cholesterol and triglycerides, plus an increase in HDL. Cucumbers, squash, melons, parsley and citrus fruit prevent platelet from sticking together to form a clot. Phytonutrients found in vegetables are inversely related to the formation of C-reactive protein, the key to measuring inflammation. So the more phytonutrients you ingest , the less C-reactive protein you are likely to form. Smoothies are a powerful tool for fighting clots.
Antioxidant properties of vegetables can inhibit the oxidation of LDL cholesterol in the blood, and since oxidized LDL cholesterol is much more likely to form artery - blocking plaque preventing it's oxidation is an important task -- as important as lowering the amount of LDL cholesterol.
Berries rich in phlyphenols are powerful fighters against the risk of heart disease. Studies show that consuming a couple of servings of berries each day for two months brings a change in platelet function and a decrease in blood pressure along with a 5.2% increase in HDL (the good cholesterol). Those who didn't eat berries had a 0.6% rise in HDL.
There Are Huge Advantages to NOT Taking COUMADINE
Veggies have a rapid effect with no chronic side effects
There is no risk of hemmoage
Coagulation controls not necessary with vegetables
No suppression to the immune system
No incompatibility with other medication
Veggies Can be used by diabetic patients
My question is why not help your body before you get a thrombophlebitis or atherosclerosis?
Raw Food Enzymes To The Rescue
Enzymes have been used for year to fight viruses and infection. Years ago, the tobacco crop was infected with a mosaic virus. Farmers learned that plants treated with enzymes resisted the virus, while those not treated died. Vets used enzymes to effectively treat equine viral cough and bovine influenza. All viruses have a protein coat containing nucleic acid; this can be broken down by enzymes, thus stopping virus reproduction. They also work because they help eliminate inflammation, pain, and fatigue. Pneumonia, influenza in human, colds, and other viral conditions appear to be successfully treated the same therapy. The course of these conditions can be considerably shortened, the symptoms are always milder with the complications are avoided. If we have extra enzymes in our body on a maintenance basis, we will close the door on the viruses before they get started. Raw green raw liquid light smoothies work every time.

There is no digestive Leukocytosis when you eat raw food.
From the 1930’s, it has been documented that eating caused the white blood cells to increase in the body. Now, it has been proven that eating food that is raw does not cause this. This Immune battle takes tons of energy first thing in the morning, and I’m not willing to share my morning energy need with my immune system.

Excess acidity from disease, lifestyle, stress, and lack of vegetables in the diet
Celiac Disease and other diseases
Lactose Intolerance or allergies
Over worked and no sleep or rest
Can Enzymes Stop YOUR Inflammation?
Many studies have proved that enzymes decrease pain. A well know study had 100 healthy Karate kids who were put into the ring to fight. 50 were given enzymes a week before the spar. The other 50 were not. The healing time for the comparable injuries were evaluated. The enzymes basically cut the healing time in 1/2. If that was my body I would be impressed.
Enzymes and Knee Surgery After surgery, rapid decrease of wound edema is a sign that tells a medical person that there will be early functional mobility. As a surgical patient, this person will have less pain and less problems in healing. In our next study on healing, 50% of the preoperative patients were given enzymes for two weeks before surgery and 2 weeks after their knee surgery. Those without enzymes were not able to bend their knee after surgery until the ninth day. The patients with the enzyme supplement were able to more their knee 90% by the seventh day, proving that enzymes provide faster healing and less pain during surgery.
Raw Veggie Enzymes Fix Wounds Fibrin, is the glue our blood produces for coagulation, is required by the body for sealing wounds. Our bodies maintain an equilibrium that allows the blood to flow at a perfect viscosity. If there is not enough fibrin you would bleed to death, fibrin overproduction would be a fatal heart disease.
At 60 your body makes a fraction of the enzymes you had when you were young. The results are obvious. The blood flows more sluggishly, toxic debris tends to remain in the vessels, and the vessels become narrower and harder. Injuries and disease tend to compound the problem leading to insufficient blood flow to the heart. Enzymes from the Raw L.L. smoothies will keep your viscosity at the perfect amount.
RAW FOOD SHOULD BE REQUIRED AFTER EVERY SURGERY
1. Inhibits inflammation without immune suppression.
2. Reduces edema.
3. Inhibits thrombi formation and stimulates thrombolysis
4. Improves blood supply to hurt tissue
5. Improves blood circulation
6. Accelerate the inflammation process for faster healing.
Boxers Without Bruises Boxers injected with enzymes immediately after injury had their black eyes and bruises gone in one to three days, rather than the usual 10 to 14 days.
Swimmer Scores A world -class swimmer developed shoulder pain, this came from repeatedly raising the arms. He experienced extreme pain in both shoulders and was very concerned because the national championships were within a month’s time. He wanted to qualify for the national swim team. He was put on enzymes and within a week, the pain had almost gone, in spite of continued workouts. By the second week, he was totally pain free.
Football Injuries Heal Faster Than the Doc Expected Mike played middle linebacker for a local high school and his knee was violently injured during a game. When his knee immediately began to swell the team doctor took Mike out for the season. Understanding about pain, inflammation and enzymes, Mike's Mom began giving him high doses of enzymes immediately after the game. On Monday he returned to play, the doctor was amazed at Mike’s rapid improvement. By Tuesday, he was pain free and he was allowed to practice that Friday.
Protocol for Enzymes and Injuries
1. Take enzymes as early as possible
2. Take high doses initially
3. Take supplements 1/2 hour before food and 1 1/2 hours after food
4. Eat lots of raw fruits and vegetables
Inflammation In Your Body Does:
1. Kills brain cells (I need all I still have)
2. Thickens blood with increased fibrinogen
3. Causes arterial plaque that might break off leading to stroke
4. Increases COX2 leading to rapid abnormal cell production.
5. Promotes free radical damage
Liquid Light Smoothies Provide Enzymes
Inflammation causes disease. Inflammation is highly treatable and a correctable condition when you eat raw vegetables that are packing a full punch of MHz enzymes. Remember cooking kills all enzymes. Veggie Smoothies are the real food relief packaged in a yummy drink.
Would You Rather Take a Pill than CHANGE?
Based on the past did your pill help change the underlying problem?
Taking anti-inflammatory pills like Aspirin or Ibuprofen causes:
1. Poor carb metabolism that may lead to glucose intolerance
2. Poor protein metabolism and muscle fatigue
3. Cause poof fat metabolism leading to weight gain
4. Suppress immune system
5. Cause bloating, irritation to the tummy, leading to gastric and duodenal ulcers
6. Increase weak bones
7. Encourage excitable and irregular heart rates
8. Stress the kidney and may cause kidney stones
Can You Afford To Become 1 Out Of 4?
Hundreds of reliable studies have showed that 30 to 40 percent of patients become resistant to aspirin like medication. When you need medications, you don’t want to have become resistant to them.
Raw Food Enzymes Just For Women
Gynecologist’s all over Europe are using enzyme mixtures to treat female diseases. Enzymes are being used to treat mastopathy, malignant neoplasms, to influence endothelial synthesis, treat dysmenorrhea, and fibrocystic breast disease. Positive results are being obtained from just sensation of pain to treating carcinomas and fibromas.
Raw L.L Smoothies will increase your enzymes.
Cholesterol Can Be Balance By Raw Food Cholesterol can be found in most cardiovascular diseases, but it is a vitally important component of normal blood flow. Cholesterol has pointed crystals that press into the vessel walls, when this happens they lose their elasticity and become covered with greasy fatty looking stuff -- this is the beginning of arteriosclerosis. Fibrinolytic enzyme therapy has been used successfully to treat arteries and veins and can be a lifesaving treatment with pulmonary embolisms, myocardial infarctions. Certain enzyme mixtures increase the fibrinolytic activity of the blood, which normalizes the equilibrium-balancing act. Early intervention with high enzyme liquid light smoothies will help keep the body from getting into heart disease.
As a nurse I've drawn blood on a patient and then gone in and spun the tube in a cintrafuge. Sometimes right after lunch the test tube will be half full of thick glue white looking crisco plaque. When I've asked the patient what he had for lunch it will be the usual fast food sandwich along with super sized greesed french fries. This thick greasy stuff doesn't just disappear.
Blood Clots Benefit from Smoothies Raw Liquid Light Smoothies with tons of enzymes are used when there is a lymphatic system that has become over-burdened and there has been a chronic inflammatory reaction. Enzyme therapy is beneficial even in advanced stages of a blood clot. After 7 to 14 day, the leg swelling will reduce by more than 50% and the pain will decrease. Further, there will be a decrease in cholesterol and triglycerides, plus an increase in HDL. Cucumbers, squash, melons, parsley and citrus fruit prevent platelet from sticking together to form a clot. Phytonutrients found in vegetables are inversely related to the formation of C-reactive protein, the key to measuring inflammation. So the more phytonutrients you ingest , the less C-reactive protein you are likely to form. Smoothies are a powerful tool for fighting clots.
Antioxidant properties of vegetables can inhibit the oxidation of LDL cholesterol in the blood, and since oxidized LDL cholesterol is much more likely to form artery - blocking plaque preventing it's oxidation is an important task -- as important as lowering the amount of LDL cholesterol.
Berries rich in phlyphenols are powerful fighters against the risk of heart disease. Studies show that consuming a couple of servings of berries each day for two months brings a change in platelet function and a decrease in blood pressure along with a 5.2% increase in HDL (the good cholesterol). Those who didn't eat berries had a 0.6% rise in HDL.
There Are Huge Advantages to NOT Taking COUMADINE
Veggies have a rapid effect with no chronic side effects
There is no risk of hemmoage
Coagulation controls not necessary with vegetables
No suppression to the immune system
No incompatibility with other medication
Veggies Can be used by diabetic patients
My question is why not help your body before you get a thrombophlebitis or atherosclerosis?
Raw Food Enzymes To The Rescue
Enzymes have been used for year to fight viruses and infection. Years ago, the tobacco crop was infected with a mosaic virus. Farmers learned that plants treated with enzymes resisted the virus, while those not treated died. Vets used enzymes to effectively treat equine viral cough and bovine influenza. All viruses have a protein coat containing nucleic acid; this can be broken down by enzymes, thus stopping virus reproduction. They also work because they help eliminate inflammation, pain, and fatigue. Pneumonia, influenza in human, colds, and other viral conditions appear to be successfully treated the same therapy. The course of these conditions can be considerably shortened, the symptoms are always milder with the complications are avoided. If we have extra enzymes in our body on a maintenance basis, we will close the door on the viruses before they get started. Raw green raw liquid light smoothies work every time.
