NATURAL SAFE LIVER CLEANERS

Safe Liver Cleanses

Any time we can do anything naturally for our body, it’s a plus. So, here are some safe, natural ways for you to help supply key nutrients needed by your liver to cleanse itself:

1. Water

Your body is essentially 70% water, so it only makes sense that in order for it to function optimally you must drink water.
Water helps flush out those nasty toxins your liver is working so hard to remove, while simultaneously pushing the good nutrients throughout your body.

By the time you are thirsty, it is said you are already dehydrated so make sure you drink water consistently throughout the day.

2. Lemons

Lemons should be listed as one of nature’s most powerful superfoods simply because they can do so much to not only keep you healthy but treat existing health issues, even cancer.
You can add lemon juice to water every time you pour yourself a glass but recent studies show that the real benefits of lemons lie in the entire lemon.

An easy way to incorporate the entire lemon into your diet is by freezing it and simply grading it into everything you eat. When you want to do a more intense liver cleanse, however, do both.
Add 1-2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice to 8 ounces of tepid water. It won’t take long before you see your energy levels rise and you being to feel like a new person.

3. Turmeric

Among its numerous health promoting properties, according to the Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand, turmeric has been shown repair damaged liver tissues. You can sprinkle some on your food or take it in capsule form.

4. Berries

You’ve no doubt heard about antioxidants and their powerful ability to fight free radicals that can cause significant damage to your body if left unchecked.
Well, you guessed it, berries are full of healthy nutrients, fiber and antioxidants. Eating a handful of berries everyday can definitely help your liver detox.

5. Garlic

Not just to keep vampires away, garlic is a potent anti-bacterial, anti-fungal that is full of selenium and allicin, both key ingredients for eliminating toxins.
While fresh garlic is best, you can take garlic supplements. When eating garlic always remember to crush it first and leave it for 10-15 minutes in order to release its active components.

6. Grapefruit

Grapefruit is another food that is high in antioxidants but as well, it contains a specific antioxidant called naringenin, a powerful flavonoid known as wonderful anti-inflammatory, which goes a long way to preventing disease.

Grapefruit also contains an enzyme that can trigger a reaction in the liver that helps to make toxic compounds more water soluble for easier elimination from the body. Grapefruit further helps to prevent your liver from storing fat.

7. Apples

You have undoubtedly heard the adage, “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.”
The reason for this is a specific nutrient called pectin that helps with proper digestion, which ultimately makes it easier for your liver to do its job.

8. Whole Grains (Quinoa, Teff, Oats)

Apart from the obvious nutritional value of whole grains, they are rich in dietary fiber, which help the liver in removing toxins.

9. Green Tea

Green tea contains high levels of catechins, effective antioxidants that help improve liver function and fat burning, making it harder for your liver to store dangerous fats.

10. Cold-pressed Oils

Organic cold pressed, virgin oils such as coconut, olive oil, flaxseed or hempseed oils have been shown to alleviate toxic stress on your liver by encouraging lipid production that absorbs harmful substances that might otherwise enter your other organs and cells.

Other Foods

• Other liver-promoting foods include walnuts, which are rich in omega fatty acids, glutathione (a powerful antioxidant), and the amino acid, arginine, all of which keep dangerous chemicals and substances like ammonia from entering your body.
• Avocados contain healthy fats that aid in the elimination of harmful toxins.
• Beets and carrots are full of flavonoids.
• Leafy green veggies contain chlorophyll (a natural detoxifier) and stimulate bile production.

WHY AND BECAUSE

When my daughter was two her favorite word would be why.  Anything and everything that came out of her mouth was why and everything that came out of my mouth was because.  It’s much like into days’ world when I ask why cancer has not been managed as of yet and I get from doctors and professionals; because.  Not much has changed since I and my daughter’s terrible two’s.

In the result of always getting the same answer “BECAUSE”, I did my own research and found out on my own why and the conclusion without the because. We as a world need to ask more on why there is a because and not an answer.  For every situation there is a solution all you have to do is be open minded and use your mind to locate the information.  We can turn the “BECAUSE” into a noun instead of a verb.

I have created websites and blogs to do just that.  Ways to benefit our bodies completely (BODY, SOUL, and MIND) for it takes a full circle of our being to create a healthy and happy lifestyle.

Do not be the one to say because, be the one with the solution to the situation.

SKY MED

This was a life saver ~ Our testimonial on how Sky Med worked with our doctors here in Mexico and New York.

Three weeks ago the unthinkable happened to Dan my husband.  It was like any other Thursday, we got up and left to go to Guadalajara for a routine stress test at his cardiologist.  We have been doing this for the past three years since they placed two more stents in Dan, leaving all together 10.  Like always before we go to the office we make time to get breakfast.  Enjoying this time together and talking about everyday subjects we finished and began walking over to the office so as to be on time.

We had to wait just a little while and then Dan’s name was called.  Ready for the stress test, he walked and then walked very fast, everything seemed fine until he sat down in the chair near the doctor.  He was ready to check his blood pressure until Dan stated he felt like he needed a drink of water.  In a split of a second, Dan turned very pail and stated to go into confusions and then his eyes closed.  The doctor started CPR and both the doctor and I yelled for him to cough and to open his eyes.  While this was happening the doctor continued to do CPR.  After a period of time which seemed like forever he started to cough and then his eyes opened.

The doctor acted very fast, he called the Del Carmen Angeles hospital and within seconds they wheeled Dan into the ER.  Thank God Dr. Salas was there to react fast and got him stabilized He was then transferred to another hospital in Mexico where the doctors (Dr. Hernandez our family doctor and Dr. Salas Dan’s cardiologist) and Sky Med worked out plans for Dan to go to New York where our daughter lives.  My husband has Medicare and by the looks of things it looked really bad. So, since he has been paying on Sky Med the choice was to go to the states if any open heart surgery was needed.

The service was fabulous; I could not have had it any better.  My daughter worked with them from the US side and our doctors here in Mexico, which made it a pleasant flight.  The crew were wonderful and the timing to get to the hospital in Brooklyn was amazing.

I have to thank my doctors, daughter, and Sky Med for the quick attention.  I am glad that we chose to take out an insurance to be flown back to the states.

I recommend Sky Med highly; I rate them from the scale of 1 to 10 (10).

Coming back to Mexico was just as organized as going.  They set us up on a commercial flight back and all is well.

The results from all of this, Dan now has a chip placed in near his heart to monitor the heart beats to see what went wrong.

Banana Peel Will Stop Headaches

SO NEXT TIME YOU GET A HEADACHE TRY THIS

Banana Peels Will Stop Headaches – Ann Landers’ column:

Dear Ann Landers: Recently, a reader sent in a “sure cure” for a headache. He said it worked every time. It went something like this: Take a banana, and peel it. Tape half of the banana peel to your forehead with adhesive and the rest to the back of your head. He said the headache should be gone in 20 minutes.

~ANGER VS LAUGHTER~

How to Safely Get Rid of Spiders from Your Home

 

White Vinegar

Spiders hate the strong pungent smell of white vinegar. It will drive away all the spiders in no time. Its acetic acid can even burn and kill spiders upon contact.

Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Spray this solution on any area where these pests can hide. You can also, spray it directly on any spider you see. Do this once daily until they are completely gone

Garlic

Take 10 cloves of garlic and extract juice out of it. Mix garlic juice in a spray bottle filled with water. Now spray this mix in the corners of your house to repulse spiders

Tobacco

Soak 1 to 2 tablespoons of tobacco in a cup of hot water for about 30 minutes. Strain and add the juice of 1 lemon in the water. Spray the solution all around the house. Repeat daily until you are sure that your house is free of spiders

Additional tip: It is important to use sprays not only in those areas where spiders are seen, but also in locations populated by certain insects which are spider’s food source. You will quicker discourage spiders from staying in your location if you limit their food source.

AMERICAN'S

As the richest and most technically advanced society, it is a shock to realize that Americans rank 25th in the the world in life expectancy. Western medicine focuses primarily on the treatment of acute disease symptoms and less on preventive health care or addressing the root causes of diseases.
