Proverbs.  23:1-­31) When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider

diligently what is before thee: 2) And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man

given to appetite. 3) Be not desirous of his dainties: for they are

deceitful meat.

Willing  to  Change

• We have to live today by what truth we can get today and be ready tomorrow to call it falsehood.William James, 1842 – 1910psychologist/philosopher/author

The  Foundation

• Diet is foundational• Supplements DO NOT make you healthy!• Treating symptoms with drugs, herbs,

homeopathics, etc does not cure disease• What is the role of compliments/supplements?

Living Foods

BarleyMax• Why not fresh wheat grass? BTTG # 27• 100% pure juice concentrate• Organically grown barley grass 80%• Organically grown mature alfalfa grass 20%• Processed at low temperature so heat sensitive

nutrients are not destroyed• Alfalfa enhances mineral and trace element content

How Much Protein Do I Need?

Protein  for  KidsKids are in far greater danger of not getting adequate vitamin D, omega 3s and B12 than they are protein. As Dr. Furhman states it is almost impossible to not get enough protein unless the diet is deficient in calories. 10 to 15% of calories in the form of protein will be ample. Most vegan adults get 60 to 80 grams of protein daily – more than ample. Children less according to age/weight.

Pharmax  Fish  Oil

Why fish oil?– Richest source of EPA and DHA– Flaxseed oil richest source of ALA but

less than 10% can be converted in the body to EPA and DHA

– Major health benefits associated with EPA and DHA

Why Pharmax Fish Oil• Derived from anchovy and sardine• DHA & EPA enrichment utilizes lipase

enzymes to retain natural triglyceride form – no chemicals or alcohol!

• Most pleasant tasting

Why Pharmax Fish Oil

• 3rd part quality and purity tested per 7 ozFish/Product Mercury PCB Dioxins

Tuna 70mcg 20,000ng 46pgSalmon farm <10mcg 6,200ng 106pgSalmon wild <10mcg 560ng 36pgPharmax (tsp.) 0 <5ng 1.2pg

Fish  Oil  – Cardiovascular  Health

• Reduces triglyceride levels• Reduces VDL (less desirable) and raises HDL

(more desirable) cholesterol• Slows progression of hardening of the arteries• Increases stability of arteries• Positive impact on hear rhythm

Inflammation• Excess intake of omega 6 creates inflammation –

over 20 grams/day on SAD• SAD provides about 0.1 to 0.2 g/day of EPA/DHA

and 1.4 g/day of ALA• Minimum of 1.0 g/day needed• Optimal benefit may require 2.2 to 3.5 g/day of

EPA/DHA

Pregnancy  and  Child  Development  -­ DHA

• Development of cognitive and visual function• 11% of brain weight is DHA, fetal development may

deplete >70% of the mother• First 6 months significant brain development requires

mothers breast milk be rich in DHA – 500 mg to 1800 mg/daily required

• Reduction of post-partum depression

Iodine• Iodine is essential not only for the thyroid but every

gland, organ, and tissue in the body!• Breast, ovaries, cervix, blood, lymph, bones, gastric

mucosal, salivary, adrenal, prostate, colon, thymus, lungs, bladder, kidney, and skin – all have a high uptake of iodine.

• Thyroid holds 50 mgs., Breasts 200 mgs., skin 400 mgs., and the whole body, 2,000 mgs. and possibly more

Iodine• Iodine helps synthesize thyroid hormones and

prevents both hypo and hyperthyroidism.• Iodine sufficiency may reverse hypo and

hyperthyroidism.• Deficiency of iodine may also contribute to

low stomach acid and decreased ability to absorb B12 and calcium.

• Iodine supports apoptosis.

Iodine• Prevents fibrocystic breast disease and cancer –

Breast Cancer and Iodine – David Derry, MD, PhD.• Destroys pathogens, molds, fungi, parasites and

malaria.• Supports immune function.• Eliminates toxic halogens (fluorine, bromine,

chlorine) from the body (including radioactive I-­‐131).• Regulates estrogen production in the ovaries

Iodine• Makes us smarter – sufficiency increases children’s

IQ by 13.5 points.• Solved The Riddle of Illness, points out that low

thyroid function is associated with cognitive impairment, memory loss, depression, slowness of mind, anxiety, suicidal tendencies, and a variety of psychiatric disorders.

• Supports pregnancy (the fetus undergoes more apoptosis than at any other developmental stage).

Iodine – The Universal & Holistic Supper Mineral, Gabriel Cousens, MD, MHD, DD

Nascent  Iodine• Iodoral (Lugol’s) iodine/potassium

iodide• Iosol liquid – iodine/ammonium

iodide• Nascent – magnetically charged,

stable singlet iodine• Nascent used more efficiently and

with greater ease in the body• Thyroid has to activate iodine to

nascent before it can use it for T3 and T4 production

Nascent  Iodine• Nascent iodine can overcome barriers that

prevent the uptake of iodine by the thyroid, such as competition from fluoride, bromide-containing molecules, or perchlorate.

• More easily taken up by the thyroid than other forms of iodine. And since it is already activated, the necessary thyroid hormones can be readily made.

Iodine  Compliments• Take 100 to 200 mcg of Selenium –

(selenomethionine)• Insure 1 to 2 teaspoons of unrefined sea salt

daily

Vitamin  C

Pathogens always deplete vitamin C levels in the body Vitamin C empowers the immune system in many different ways. • Enhances production of interferons; • function of phagocytes; • cytokine production by white blood cells; • cell-mediated immune response; • nitric oxide production by phagocytes; • T-lymphocyte proliferation; • B-lymphocyte proliferation; • Antibody production, etc.

• The mammals most susceptible to infectious disease –man, monkey, and the guinea pig – were those that were unable to synthesize vitamin C (Thomas Levy, MD)

• The vast majority of other mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, etc produce their own vitamin.

• Under normal conditions an adult goat about the body size of an adult human makes 13 grams daily.

• Under life-threatening diseases or severe toxic challenges, goats can produce as much as 100 grams.

• Humans must satisfy their vitamin C needs from diet and supplementation. (Thomas Levy, Primal Panacea)

• A large Cambridge University Study supports the conclusion that much of the illness seen in our populations are related to low vitamin C levels in the blood.

• The Cambridge study showed that individuals with the highest blood levels of vitamin C had nearly half the death rate of those with the lowest levels – from all causes.

Liposomal  Vitamin  C• Liposomal encapsulation

technology puts vitamin C into small vesicles of phospholipids

• Cell membranes in our bodies are primarily made of phospholipids (phosphors containing lipid)

• Bypasses digestive process, transported directly into the blood stream and cells (like WBC that use vit C to fight infections)

Liposomal  C• IV vit C gets C into the blood efficiently• Liposomal C gets into the blood and cells• One teaspoon, 5 ml provides 1,000 mg • Fred Klenner, MD in 1940s pioneered the use

of mega-gram IV (intravenous) vitamin C• Thomas Levy, MD, JD – former cardiologist,

modern day vit C researcher/advocate

Liposomal  C• Dr Levy’s observation – properly encapsulated

vitamin C is 5 to 10 times more potent than the same amount given IV –

• “I observed on more than one occasion that 5 grams of lypo C had clearly as good or even greater an impact on the acute symptoms of cold or flu than 50 grams of vitamin C given intravenously.”

Luminology• Unique formulation to naturally

support a woman’s hormone balance at various stages

• Symptoms with marked improvement included hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness/painful intercourse, foggy thinking/memory problems, insomnia, depression/anxiety/weepiness/mood swings, low sex drive, painful or lumpy breasts/fibrocystic breasts, fatigue and intolerance to exercise, and migraine headaches.

Maca• Maca is an adaptogen which helps the body adapt to

stress and restore normal balance. Maca supports the endocrine system, including the ovaries, adrenals, pancreas and thyroid. It supports sexual health, fertility and hormonal balance.

• MacaPure® is the only maca product available that is standardized on the unique macamides and macaene compounds present in maca, delivering consistent results batch-to-batch.

DIM 3-­3’-­• Diindolylmethane speeds up the metabolism of

estrogens to dispose of unwanted estrogenic compounds, both from the body’s own production and from environmental sources.

• Bio Response DIM is the only diindolylmethane that is optimized for increased bioavailability.

Additional  Ingredients• Vitamin B-6 - Extra vitamin B-6 may be helpful for

easing PMS symptoms. The most bioavailable coenzyme form is included in this formula.

• Vitex berry - The standardized extract of the vitex berry is helpful in elevating progesterone levels to achieve pregnancy. Helps normalize the length of menstrual cycle (whether too short or too long).

• Note: Do not use if pregnant or nursing. If pregnancy occurs during use, slowly discontinue after 1st

trimester.

Ingredients  cont’d• Zinc - Important for immunity. Excess estrogen can

deplete zinc, negatively impacting immune health.• Phytosterols - are a precursor for pregnenolone, from

which the body can make DHEA or progesterone, as needed. Sourced from pine trees, a non-GMO source, rather than soy beans.

• Yucca - The yucca root is rich in saponins which emulsify fats, increasing absorption of the phytosterols, DIM, and fat-soluble nutrients in maca.

Important  Considerations• H.D. Women’s Health should not be used if

Tamoxifen or other medication to suppress hormone production is being used.

• If taking HRT or Bio-Identical Hormones it is recommended that you work with your doctor in determining what protocol is right for you.

• H.D. Women’s Health is not recommended if you have a history of hormone related cancer unless it is used under the supervision of your doctor.

Vitamin  D3  Epidemic  Deficiency• Large amount of time indoors• Fear of Sunshine– Poor diet and low antioxidant levels leave

individuals vulnerable to sun damage– Sunscreen inhibits UVB radiation (SPF-8 = 97.5%

reduction in vitamin D production)– Darker skin may require up to 6 times as much sun

exposure

Vitamin  D3  • Research indicates D deficiency plays a role in at least 17

varieties of cancer as well as:– Heart Disease - Stroke - Hypertension - Autoimmune

diseases - Diabetes - Depression - Chronic Pain -Osteoarthritis - Osteoporosis - Muscle Weakness -Muscle wasting - Birth Defects - Periodontal Disease (www.vitamindcouncil.org)

• Vitamin K keeps excess calcium out of the blood and into the bone

Vitamin  D  and  Sunshine• The optimal source of vitamin D • Winter production impossible in winter in northern areas• Low D, factor in colds, flu, depression, and chronic disease• Safe tanning beds (*electronic ballasts not magnetic ballasts)

next best option – 15,000 IU in 10 minutes• Discrete supplementation is imperative for many if they are

to achieve optimal blood levels of 50 to 80 ng/ml

Vitamin  D  and  Cancer• Promotes apoptosis – natural cell death• Promotes differentiation – process by which cells become specific

tissues• Selectively inhibits angiogenesis – formation of blood vessels• Slows invasiveness – spreading of cancer into healthy tissue• Inhibits metastasis – spreading of cancer cells• Works as an antioxidant and pro-oxidantMarc Sorenson, Ed D – Vitamin D3 and Solar Power for Optimal Health

Serrapeptase

In his book, Pain Relief, Inflammation Relief and Clear Arteries! The 2nd Gift of the Silkworms is Serrapeptast™, Robert Redferm indicates that Serrpapeptase is a proteolytic enzyme that in vitro and in vivo studies has been shown to have a specific anti-inflammatory effect superior to that of other proteolytic enzymes.

Serrapeptase is naturally found in the silkworm intestine and is processed commercially today through fermentation. The silkworm secretes this serratia enzyme which dissolves a small hole in the cocoon (dead tissue) allowing the butterfly to emerge, with no detrimental effects on the living cells.

Robert Redfern goes on to state: “Serrapeptase digests non-living tissue, blood clots,cysts, and arterial plaque and inflammation in all forms.”

Indications  shown  in  various  studies  and  reported  by  

Practitioners  on  their  patients:1. Pain of any kind. 2. Scar tissue.3. Arthritis, MS, (Multiple Sclerosis), Rheumatoid

Arthritis and Lupus etc. 4. Headaches and Migraines caused by

inflammation. 5. Lungs - Emphysema, Bronchitis, Pulmonary

Tuberculosis, Bronchial Asthma, Bronchiectasis etc

6. Eye Problems from inflammation or blocked veins etc.

Continued7. Sinusitis problems, chronic ear infections and

runny nose etc 8. Sports Injuries, traumatic swelling, post

operative swellings and leg ulcers that are not healing.

9. Inflammation of any kind: inflammatory bowls diseases-, (Crohn’s, Colitis etc) Cystitis etc and in joints or muscles e.g. Fibromyalgia

10.Breast Engorgement, Fibrocystic Breast Disease etc

11.Cardiovascular Disease and Varicose Veins etc

Hallelujah Acres Serrapeptase supplies 80,000 IU of Serrapeptase per capsule. The granules of Serratia Peptidase are enteric coated to protect them from the stomach acids. The formulation also contains 17 mg of a proprietary blend of enzymes (Protease, Acid Stable Protease, and Cellulase) to facilitate assimilation and absorption.

Selenium  – Benefits  

• Selenium strengthens your immune system’s response to viruses

• Selenium is a key part of antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase

• Antioxidants supply the immune system much-needed protection during the oxidative stress and excessive free radical damage caused by an acute infection

• N-acetyl L-cysteine supports immune function during infections

• N-acetyl L-cysteine provides direct antioxidant protection

• N-acetyl L-cysteine is also a precursor to glutathione

• Alpha Lipoic Acid provides water and fat-soluble antioxidant protection

• All the ingredients together promote the increased production of the master antioxidant—glutathione

• Selenium in its most bioavailable whole food form provides potent antioxidant protection for life

• Nutritional benefits of this essential mineral are enhanced by the inclusion of organic foods rich in trace minerals

• Easy to digest even on an empty stomach• Non-GMO• Vegetarian• Tested FREE of pesticides, herbicides, gluten

and soy

Research has shown selenium supports the immune system’s response to viral infections. When children with influenza strain H1N1 were compared to uninfected children, researchers found lower levels of selenium in the blood and lower levels of the antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and lower levels of glutathione. In an ex vivo experiment neutrophil cells from donors low in glutathione peroxidase activity were tested for bactericidal and phagocytic activity. When the cells were incubated with physiological levels of selenium there was a significant increase in their ability to consume and digest yeast particles and bacteria.

Selenium given to people infected with HIV improved CD4 positive T-cell counts,3 and in Botswana when selenium was given along with multivitamins the morbidity and negative outcomes from HIV infection were reduced by about 50 percent.4 Selenium has been given orally to Chinese subjects suffering from hemorrhagic fever. Mortality in the most severe cases was reduced from 100% to 36%, and in the less severe cases from 22% to 0%.5

Overall, the evidence indicates that there is a role for selenium in proper immune function.
