Colon Health
- Eat more Organic Live Foods, lots of them! And daily use a stool to raise your knees up to assist your colon while eliminating. Use a Probiotic daily helps. Occasionally use this wonderful product by Dr. Group, I love this product. Since childhood I have needed assistance to daily eliminate. I have used many herbal remedies and teas however, I used this product and my bowels have been healthier ever since. I highly recommend this product.

Our Skin: our largest organ in our body 
- Our skin is the largest organ in our body! Using a dry brush with a natural bristle daily creates a way to exfoliate your skin before a shower or bath.
Organic sugar scrub with just enough almond oil or avocado oil to wet the mixture then add your favorite essential oil like Lavender or Grapefruit or Bergamot. After bathing, turn off the water and just scrub the mixture in the shower to revitalize/renew your skin and then rinse off. Use this scrub whenever needed.
- For antiperspirant/odor use Organic Lime Juice. Wow… this works really great. It is the best I have ever found and non-toxic 🙂 All you do is pour a little out, 1 teaspoon in a small dish and dap it on with your fingers. It feels sticky until it dries but works like a pro!
Favorite Essential oil company is: http://www.elizabethvanburen.com/home.html
I use the Essence of Absolute Rose daily as well which Rose is the highest frequency of all plants vibrations. Did you know the bottoms of our feet is the most absorbent place on your body? Well yes it is. Bulgarian Rose is the highest frequency of all the Roses to my knowledge. If you are stressed or in disease state this Essence of Rose is a must to assist your body back into balance.

Apple Cider Vinegar
(Although I have found ACV with some baking soda when I am feeling sick, coming down with something, I have steered away from ACV due to the bloating it causes when I take it in the health place I am at in this time in my life.)
Apple Cider Vinegar has countless ways to treat your body. (Examples such as skin irritations, acne and contact dermatitis.) Just rub some Apple Cider Vinegar on areas on your skin where you are having issues with and it works like magic! Apple Cider Vinegar has also been found to greatly improve digestion and eliminate heart burn, assist in chronic fatigue conditions, help relieve constipation and assist in weight control by breaking down unwanted fat in the body.
Just one of many stories about ACV from my personal experience is with my dog who had suffered from a rash in his groin area. After many trips to the vets without any improvement I went online to my favorite site: http://www.earthclinic.com/
Here I found a fellow pet owner who suggested this simple remedy with half mixture of ACV and water. I sprayed the area once to twice a day, and it cleared up my dogs rash in just days! A few months later it came back and I applied the same remedy and it work again. The rash has been gone now for about a year. Earth Clinic has a wealth of wonderful solutions for your pets and for yourself.
Below are some important health checks suggested we would be wise to know: What is your Blood Pressure, cholesterol, waist size, fasting blood sugar and your weight are some important figures to be aware of for Healthy Living!
Our toilets are too high for our bodies to have a natural optimum bowel function. It is best to be in a squatting position to have a healthier bowel movement. All one needs is to add a small stool to rest your feet on. Wow… what a difference it makes! I highly recommend this. When I was in my early 20’s, I also witnessed some dear friends who suffered and died from bowel cancer. This experience caused me to become very conscious of healthy bowel functions. In order to stay healthy I recommend “Super Cleanse” by Natures Secret. Just 2 tabs before bed. I also love liquid chlorophyll “Chlorofresh” by Natures Way. A few tablespoons into my water each day, yum… my favorite! http://benefitof.net/benefits-of-chlorophyll/
Another colon health remedy is by Global Healing Center https://www.globalhealingcenter.com/cleansing/oxy-powder.html
Along with PoopDoc’s Formula #1 constipation relief
Many of us needs to check your blood pressure number once a year. While optimal blood pressure can vary from person to person, the ideal number is 115 over 75. As long as you’re not light-headed, the lower the better. If your number is hypertensive, which is 140 over 90 or greater, you are losing about 10 years of life expectancy supposedly. To lower high blood pressure, many docs recommends losing weight and reducing salt intake. Because salt is such a big part of our diet today, and we get about 3,400 milligrams of salt a day. However, these numbers keep lowering maybe due to big pharma wants us all on HBP meds.
Another thing everyone needs to know is one you can measure at home—waist size. Waist size tells you about the belly fat, and it’s that belly fat that puts pressure on your kidneys, and your kidneys regulate your blood pressure. So by squeezing your kidneys, you’re actually forcing your blood pressure up.
Your waist size should be half your height. For an average size female, that’s less than 35 inches; less than 40 inches for a male. Those numbers are obesity thresholds. Ideally, less than 32 and a half inches if you’re a woman and less than 35 inches if you’re a male.
Bentonite Clay
Bentonite clay is another favorite of mine for over 30 years. This may be use to detox.

Plantar Fascia Tendonitis
A naturopathic doctor help repair my Plantar Fascia Tendonitis. She had me taking Alfalfa tablets, Sea Vegetation tablets and liquid Chlorophyll for 4 months. Of course she muscle tested me for quantity of each. Sure enough after having this nagging pain for 6 months, it went away.
While on a Juice Feast/cleanse for 80 days around the tenth day my Plantar Fascia Tendonitis went away and has not come since. It has been six month and still no symptoms. I still juice regularly about 3 or more days each week for breakfast & lunch.
Energy Medicine
Energy Medicine by Donna Eden has been providing vital information on how our technologies are creating more energy interference more than ever with our increase needs to connect with others and our community by use of cell phones, Internet, Ipad etc. Television, florescent lighting, TV monitors everywhere are inundating us, making our over-load. Connecting with nature each day helps ground our energy field. Being out side daily in nature can help to feel more grounded and present.

Water
Water! Yes water, I believe is very important to Healthy Living. I had been using a Reverse Osmosis drinking system for the past 5 years. My old reverse osmosis system was not functioning unknown to me for a few months while I believed I was drinking healthy, quality water. After purchasing “Jupiter Melody Ionizer”, just days later, 10 to be exact, I noticed the 2 moles on my left thigh which had become raised and darker over the last few years, began fading and shrinking in size and depth. Now 14 months later one mole is so faded I can barely see it and the other one is only faintly visible. Both are now flat, level with the rest of my skin on my thigh. Within 10 days of drinking this Alkaline water these moles were shrinking and fading! Wow… I highly recommend this system for better health. Here is a link to an article on the value of investing in your health.
