Thinking about going vegan?

On Thursday, October 9th, we had a fabulous show with guest, Tiffany Janay who shared her testimony on how she and her husband turned their health around and lost weight by changing over to a vegan diet. Tiffany is very passionate about this topic and you have to hear her story and how she reached this level. She motivated me and I know she will motivate everyone who hears her story. So make sure you stop by my blogtalk site and hear the archive of this show.

Do you need the flu shot? Consider naturally boosting your immune system.

Youtube video – what’s in a flu shot

The Flu vaccine contains:
-    mercury
-    aluminum
-    (Aluminum is added to promote an antibody response. It is a neurotoxin that may play a role in Alzheimer’s disease.)
-    formaldehyde (cancer causing agent)
-    ethylene glycol (antifreeze)

To prevent the flu:
-    Avoid sugar. It suppresses immunity.
-    Avoid Omega-6 vegetable oils (corn, safflower, sunflower, peanut, canola, and soybean oil). Americans consume 50 times more of these oils than are necessary for good health. In this amount they are powerful immune suppressants.
-    Take a well-balanced multivitamin/mineral capsule on a daily basis.
-    Eat garlic.
-    Manage stress.
-    Exercise.
-    Get enough rest.
-    And wash your hands. Viruses spread most often from touching contaminated objects, like doorknobs, phones, shared computer keyboards, and shaking hands..

What your herbalist recommends:
Silver Shield is an awesome product. Provides more powerful support to the immune system. In a recent report from the Microbiology Department at Brigham Young University found that a nano-particle silver solution was effective in destroying over a dozen of today’s most dangerous bacteria, including Samonella, E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Also, a long list of viruses.
NSP Silver Shield has been studied extensively in in vitro and human trials. It has proven to be two to three times more effective than other commercial colloidal silver products, and it has outperformed some other products.
This is product no home should be without!
