LULLABYE AND GOODNIGHT, the nightmare of insomnia

Please note there is a remedy search function to the right>>>>see: type in a health problem get the solution.

I've had insomnia all my life, I was sleep deprived from an early age. I'd lie awake at night worrying, I'd worry about my grades, my family, and when I couldn't think of anything to worry about, I'd worry about that.

I tried every cure known to mankind, I finally found that by listening to a tuneless 'music' tape over and over all night allowed me to fall and stay asleep all night. Well I can't do that now that I'm married, my husband who falls asleep very easily doesn't like the 'music'.

I was working but I never got enough sleep and I was rummy all day, I made stupid mistakes and was not a good employee, I had to quit the job and try to get well. I found out that my blood pressure was causing me to wake a lot every night. Now the High blood pressure isn't an issue but the frequent bladder-attacks are. I am healing from the diabetes, and even if I go way off my diet I am keeping my blood sugar within the proper ranges. Even my recent pH readings are for a normal person now staying at 7.25.

Sleep, however is sometimes still a problem. The CellPower™ really helps but my body has a life-long habit of living a tortured night-life.

Once I start having a sleep problem I have a hard time breaking it again, I really try not to even think, "tonight I will not sleep." If I do I will have a hard time.
I read recently that women are more damaged by lack of sleep than men.

In fact:If you're a woman, you have an added risk: hypertension. Researchers found that women who get less than five hours of sleep at night had double the risk of having high blood pressure than women who sleep seven hours or more. Men are not so afflicted.

Sleep restriction can affect your endocrine system (including your adrenal glands, which handle stress) and inflammation (all illnesses ending in 'itis'). Getting less than seven hours of sleep at night for several nights in a row affects your memory, attention, and mood. It has also been 'proven' that a lack of sufficient sleep can cause depression.

One way to counteract the effects of a temporary insomnia is to take Melatrol- safe and natural~ valerian for pain relief and Magnesiuim for a great muscle relaxant .

(1)

Many people complain that they can’t fall asleep or stay asleep, or that they are sleepy during the day, but few consider these to be symptoms of a sleep disorder. Sleep deprivation is a symptom of a sleep disorder.

Particular behaviors during normal daytime activities are telltale signs of sleep deprivation. If you are experiencing one or more of the following symptoms during the day, you may not be getting enough restful sleep at night, and you may even have a sleep disorder.

Do you . . .

feel irritable or sleepy during the day?
have difficulty staying awake when sitting still, such as when watching television or reading?
fall asleep sometimes while driving?
have difficulty paying attention or concentrating at work, school, or home?
perform below your potential in work, school, or sports?
often get told by others that you look tired?
have difficulty with your memory?
react slowly?
have emotional outbursts?
feel like taking a nap almost every day?
require caffeinated beverages to keep yourself going?

If this is you, there are methods to cope,
~a bed that is comfortable really helps.
~And I find regular sleeping habits is also key,
~As I said before a pleasing white noise is also beneficial.
~If you are in pain, that will really cause problems also. A nice hot bath [my panacea for ills involving pain]. And possibly some hot cocoa, the old warm milk trick does work if you like milk.
~Serotonin levels that no longer as high as they were in one's youth can contribute to sleeplessness, so adding them back in the form of GABA a precursor of HGH, human growth hormone, will be efficacious, see the Swanson's link above right, they have the cheapest form of GABA anywhere, it really really works to reverse many signs of aging, I took it for a long time, also helps with sleep, it even reverses grey hair, that is it causes the follicles to regenerate and regrow real hair color.
~Allowing oneself to worry is a real sleep killer. If you can meditate or pray before falling asleep that will really be helpful.

I really hope this entry will bring blessed sleep to those who need it, I feel your pain~Nita Knapp.

other things I take are:coconut oil

is great for cooking and for continued weight loss. I really notice the difference in my weight control when I'm out of it for a while.
AND:
FLAX SEED OIL for my colon, but of course FLAX SEED OIL is also a great source of omega-3 essential fatty acids for THE BRAIN WHICH IS MOSTLY FAT, DID YOU KNOW THAT? AND YOUR HEART IS MOSTLY WATER!
And one each of the four essential minerals each day:
~SELENIUMhelps immune system,fights infection and aids circulation
~MAGNESIUMhelps to relax you, aids stress and muscle relaxing
~CHROMIUMimproves insulin sensitivity, and helps lower blood sugar.
~ZINC

I wish all of you the robust, vigorous health I'm getting closer to each day.

The other day a young person asked me how I felt about being old. I was taken aback, for I do not think of myself as old. Upon seeing my reaction, she was immediately embarrassed, but I explained that it was an interesting question, and I would ponder it, and let her know.

Old Age, I decided, is a gift.


I am now, probably for the first time in my life, the person I have always wanted to be. Oh, not my body! I sometime despair over my body, the wrinkles, the baggy eyes, and the sagging butt. And often I am taken aback by that old person that lives in my mirror (who looks like my mother!), but I don't agonize over those things for long.
I would never trade my amazing friends, my wonderful life, my loving family for less gray hair or a flatter belly. As I've aged, I've become more kind to myself, and less critical of myself. I've become my own friend. I don't chide myself for eating that extra cookie, or for not making my bed, or for buying that silly cement gecko that I didn't need, but looks so avante garde on my patio. I am entitled to a treat, to be messy, to be extravagant.
I have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging.
Whose business is it if I choose to read or play on the computer until 4 AM and sleep until noon?
I will dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of the 60&70's, and if I, at the same time, wish to weep over a lost love ... I will.
I will walk the beach in a swim suit that is stretched over a bulging body, and will dive into the waves with abandon if I choose to, despite the pitying glances from the jet set.

They, too, will get old.
I know I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some of life is just as well forgotten. And I eventually remember the important things.
Sure, over the years my heart has been broken. How can your heart not break when you lose a loved one, or when a child suffers, or even when somebody's beloved pet gets hit by a car? But broken hearts are what give us strength and understanding and compassion. A heart never broken is pristine and sterile and will never know the joy of being imperfect.
I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face. So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could turn silver.
As you get older, it is easier to be positive. You care less about what other people think. I don't question myself anymore. I've even earned the right to be wrong.

So, to answer your question, I like being old. It has set me free. I like the person I have become. I am not going to live forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what will be. And I shall eat dessert every single day. (If I feel like it)

DADDY, HOW WAS I BORN???

A little boy goes to his father and asks "Daddy, how was I born?"

The father answers: "Well son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a little Pop-Up appeared that said: 'You got Male!'"

Sign of the times?
~~~
A new student had joined the class and the teacher asked him if he knew his numbers.

"Yes," he said. "I do. My father taught me."

"Good. What comes after three."

"Four," answered the boy.

"What comes after six?"

"Seven."

"Very good," said the teacher. "Your dad did a good job. What comes after ten?"

"A jack," was the response.

~~sorry, I hope I'll find some funnier jokes for the next entry~~
Have a blessed day filled with Peace and Joy!

MORE THINGS TO AVOID

Olestra

A fake fat recently approved by the FDA, over the objections of dozens of leading physicians.

(1)

The additive may be fat-free but it has a fatal side-effect: it attaches to valuable nutrients and flushes them out of the body. Some of these nutrients -- called arytenoids -- appear to protect us from such diseases as lung cancer, prostate cancer, heart disease, and macular degeneration. The Harvard School of Public Health states "the long-term consumption of olestra snack foods might therefore result in several thousand unnecessary deaths each year from lung and, prostate cancers and heart disease, and hundreds of additional cases of blindness in the elderly due to macular degeneration. Besides contributing to disease, olestra causes diarrhea and other serious gastrointestinal problems, even at low doses."

FDA certified olestra despite the fact that there are safe low-fat snacks already on the market. There is no evidence to show that olestra will have any significant effect on reducing obesity in America.

Despite being approved as safe by the FDA, all snacks containing olestra must carry a warning label (similar to one found on cigarettes) that states:

This Product Contains Olestra. Olestra may cause abdominal cramping and loose stools. Olestra inhibits the absorption of some vitamins and other nutrients. Vitamins A, D, E, and K have been added.

(2)

Olestra also raced through subjects so quickly in some test cases, according to Procter and Gamble's data, that it resulted in "anal leakage," diarrhea and underwear stains. It also takes hostages: Olestra removes significant amounts of fat-soluble vitamins and arytenoids (nutrients that may reduce the chances of cancer and heart disease) from the digestive tract

(3)"Olestra has also has caused problems ranging from gas to bloody stools to cramps so severe that they had to go to the emergency room."

One of the vitamins that olestra eliminates in our digestive system is Vitamin A, or arytenoids

(4)

Arytenoids are natural fat-soluble pigments found in certain plants. Arytenoids provide the bright red, orange, or yellow coloration of many vegetables, serve as antioxidants, and can be a source for vitamin A activity. There are more than 600 known natural arytenoids, all of them synthesized only in plants. Arytenoids may be classified as hydrocarbon carotenes or
xanthophylls, which are oxygenated derivatives of carotenes. Representative examples of carotenes include β-carotene, alpha-carotene, and lycopene. Examples of xanthophylls include lutein, astaxanthin, canthaxanthin, zeaxanthin, and capsorubin. Lycopene, lutein, zeaxanthin, phytoene, phytofluene and beta-carotene belong to this family. Arytenoids are antioxidants. They play an important role in health maintenance by helping to reduce the impact and minimize the oxidative damage caused by surplus free radicals...

Arytenoids are very important for health. The health benefits of arytenoids in the human diet are becoming increasingly apparent. There've been studies suggest that some arytenoids can offer protection against some cancers, macular eye disease and
Cardiovascular problems. A higher dietary intake of arytenoids offers protection against developing certain cancers (e.g., lung, skin, uterine, cervix, gastrointestinal tract), macular degeneration, cataracts, and other health conditions linked to oxidative or free radical damage. In addition to being antioxidants, arytenoids also help to rejuvenate the body by promoting the growth of healthy cells and inhibiting the growth of unhealthy ones.

Vitamin A deficiency will result in poor reproductive health and bone health, a suppressed immune system, poor vision, decreased liver function, brittle nails, skin health [gives the skin a gooseflesh appearance] Vitamin A adds lubrication to mucus membranes. Two diseases caused by the deficiency of vitamin A are Night Blindness and Xerophthalmia (drying up of the eyes and cornea). So tell me, is olestra worth it?

Also good to avoid; are food colorings that exacerbate problems in children with
Tendancies toward ADD or ADHD, AND IT CAUSES CANCER!

Nitrite and Nitrate

Sodium nitrate, Potassium nitrate, and Potassium nitrite are traditionally as preservatives in Deli meats and other processed meats to to prevent botulism, and to improve color and flavor.


Potassium Nitrite is toxic in large doses and had caused many deaths.
(5)

It has the ability to change hemoglobin to methemoglobin and this is what makes nitrite so dangerous. Hemoglobin is the component of red blood cells that carries oxygen to all the cells of the body. Methemoglobin is unable to carry oxygen; therefore the conversion of hemoglobin to methemoglobin drastically impairs the bloods’ ability to carry oxygen. The resulting condition is called methemoglobinemia. People suffering from this condition have difficulty breathing; experience skin discoloration (bluish tinge) and can even lose consciousness which, in turn, can cause death if the levels of methemoglobin rise higher. According to FAO/WHO, babies seem especially venerable to methemoglobin.

In other words it actually alters our blood chemistry and produces a lethal condition.

It was added to baby foods at one time, but now is probably only found in some imported baby foods.

Recent studies have found a link between high processed meat consumption and colon cancer, possibly due to preservatives such as sodium nitrite. My stepfather died of colon cancer and he was always a sausage enthusiast.

Nitrate used in 'cured' meats is often found in our water supply also:
(6)

Risk to Human Health: Nitrate is a potential human health threat especially to infants, causing the condition known as methemoglobinemia, also called "blue baby syndrome". Read about the impact of Nitrate in water used to make baby formula, on the infant. When Nitrate is taken in by eating food and drinking water, Nitrate is converted in the gut to nitrite, which then combines with hemoglobin to form methemoglobin, thus decreasing the ability of the blood to carry oxygen. Infants are more susceptible to nitrate toxicity than older children or adults. Fatalities are rare, but sub-acute methemoglobinemia can be asymptotic while affecting development, making the condition particularly insidious. Chronic consumption of high levels of nitrate may also cause other health problems, for example some cancers and teratogenic effects

This is all the research I have time for today, I will be doing more studies on maintaining health in the face of a dangerous world.

I find that since I've been taking CellPower™ I've started and am well down the road to recovery. I was so very sick when I started taking it that it immediately gave me a huge boost of energy, cleared up some problems I've had with me for many years and is working quite well on getting the chronic troubles chased outta me.

It is a natural product, which unlike drugs that shock and awes your body into change, often causing side effects; cellpower will gently adjust your systems towards health, without causing sides at all. Sometimes there is a Herxheimer effect, Your body; while throwing off toxins and pollutants, will feel a bit sickish, usually only for a few days but sometimes for as long as two weeks, then a huge burst of health will follow.

Some more help that I need is coconut oil

The grandfather was surprised that she would ask such a question, but decided that
if she’s old enough to know to ask the question, then she’s old enough to get a straight
answer. Steeling himself to leave nothing out, he proceeded to tell her all about human
reproduction. When he finished explaining, the little girl was looking at him with her

Seeing the look on her face, the grandfather asked her, “Why did you ask this question

The little girl replied, “Grandma says that dinner will be ready in a couple of secs.”

DISADVANTAGES OF SUMMER

I haven't slept well for several days, The heat and humpaditty[sic] has been terrible, more than our nominal air conditioners can handle. We bought air conditioners that would deal with normal summer heat but every year it gets 'abnormally' warm. My blood glucose levels go up when I'm stressed by sleeplessness. Also we were rear ended a few weeks ago and my back is still a bit tight from that. Add to that the drafts from the fan in our bedroom and I get up sore and uncomfortable.

Fortunately the CellPower™
I'm taking has really helped my heart and blood pressure so they aren't a problem,. When one wakes frequently for no reason, the culprit can be the heart's distress in the night. Sleeplessness results because it's hard to get back to sleep. I no longer have those problems, and if I didn't have to battle the high heat and moisture in our home at night I'd sleep quite well. I go to bed early these days; I used to stay up until 2-3am because I dreaded the nightly torture of lying in bed and not being able to sleep, and I'd sleep in until 10am or later, making for short miserable days I'd just endure, no living then it was just an existence. If you think I'm exaggerating, well I am, but in the opposite direction you'd think. It was really the most awful kind of life, I was just waiting to die.

Losing weight and exercising [and I confess there's not as much of that as you'd think] has really changed my life and the CellPower™ has really topped off my efforts by helping me tackle the peripheral problems of IBS and Candidiasis also those pesky and multi-origin allergies that kept me from breathing, made me itch so bad I'd cause bleeding in my skin in my sleep, and then there was the itchy watery eyes that made it so hard to see or keep any eye liner on.


Here's one more thing I've not mentioned yet that CellPower™ has helped me with. I had lesions on my nose, tiny red marks with a scaly edge that nothing would touch, I tried everything in my arsenal, zinc oxide, Hydrogen peroxide and a few secret nostrums, nothing helped, Months went by and I was just sure I had one of the skin cancers mom warned me about in my foolish youth when long before sunscreen was invented I allowed myself to burn like toast in the sun. I mix the CellPower™ in 1 drop to 10 drops of distilled water, I use highly filtered water, and every day I applied that to my nose and around my mouth where I get little cold sores from other allergies, and sweat. I also had a small patch of dry scaly skin on my temple that Of Course I've picked at over the years. All those things have just disappeared, no more scaly patches, no more rashes around my mouth, no more lesions on my nose, Hooray!

~~~[digression]~~~
I'd like to explain something here about why we should use distilled water or filtered water or juice to mix the CellPower™in. It is highly antibiotic, anti-fungal-and anti-viral, and we want all that good healing power in us not cleaning up our water. I always use the last mouthful of CellPower™ as I drink it to hold in my mouth to clean up any bacteria that might mess with my teeth or gums. I am getting a much cleaner, healthier mouth that way. The CellPower™ begins it's work the very minute you start to drink it, it is absorbed into the mucus membranes as soon as it gets in the mouth.

The very best way to get full benefit from the CellPower™, is to shake the bottle very well, then squeeze out 10 drops of it into an empty glass, add 8 oz. of clean water to it and drink it, do this three times per day for the first month, after that you can adjust the dosage to 15 drops three times a day. The taste is like lemon juice in water.

Someone asked why I recommend distilled water to help adjust the pH to alkaline. Not all alkalizing foods are alkaline in nature, for instance Lemons are a very alkalizing food and are intrinsically acid in themselves. CellPower™ is the same way, it helps the body alkalize without being alkaline, but it packs a powerful punch in addition.

~~~[/digression]~~~

OK back to summer and hot weather, Of course we do have cellpower buyers in Australia and New Zealand who are still in the throes of what we call winter, but spring is coming for them too, and hot weather follows.

Anything that causes stress will raise the blood glucose levels, so a bit of a rise in the readings are no cause for alarm.

I read somewhere that a diabetic can more easily assimilate a sweet[or hi-carb] in the pm, but I've found that it's best for my glucose levels to eat any sweet, like fruits at breakfast, then when I'm busy working all morning [my busiest time] I can work it all off and my evening reading proves that out. I have found that eating the wrong foods has a cumulative effect, I can cheat once even twice, but any more will cause my glucose levels to rise and stay up. I'm still not out of the 'normal' or 'controlled' levels, just a bit higher. An adjustment in the mental part of the diet is needed as well as the food part. Heh heh.

These are really helpful for maintaining health and losing weight

JUST REMEMBER THIS WHEN SOMEONE POOH-POOS YOUR IDEAS.

~~~
One night a burglar is trying to break into a house. He's sneaking across the lawn when he hears a voice - "Jesus is watching you!" He jumps, turns around, but he doesn't see anything. So he starts creeping across the lawn again. "Jesus is watching you!" He hears it again. So now the burglar is really looking around, and he sees a parrot in a cage by the side of the house. He says to the parrot, "Did you say that?" The parrot answers "Yes I did." So the burglar asks, "What's your name?" The parrot says "Clarence." The burglar says "What kind of stupid idiot would name his parrot Clarence?" The parrot laughs and says, "The same stupid idiot that named his Rottweiler 'Jesus' "

Have a great day, and by the way, I'm sorry the chat isn't working, I'll be looking around for a better one today and fix the code. I've tried three different codes today and still it's not working, I'm sorry

KEEPING A HEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEM

NOTE THIS IS FOURTH IN A SERIES ABOUT THE IMMUNE SYSTEM, SO SCROLL DOWN FOR LOTS MORE INFORMATION.
(1)

Our bodies require adequate oxygen , they are not designed to thrive on low oxygen levels. 6%
or less oxygen in the atmosphere causes asphyxiation. We simply cannot live without oxygen,
and the more oxygen we breathe in from the air, the better for our health and well being. Good
breathing techniques in fresh clean air and exercises contribute much to a person's good health.
When the air smells bad we tend to breathe shallowly and our blood gets starved of oxygen.
Poor air warnings are now common in many places. (Is it possible that low oxygen levels in our
body are at least partly responsible for the increases in cardiovasular disorders?)

We can live only for a few minutes without oxygen, that makes oxygen the most important
nutrient of them all. If a totally adequate supply of oxygen is made available to all the
cells of our body, disease can diminish. Well-oxygenated cells are not as likely to get
sick.

So the very first thing we need for a healthy body is well oxygenated cells. That's one of the first things CellPower™
does for us when we take it everyday. CellPower™ brings pure oxygen to the cellular level. Then it helps each cell to release whatever is spent in it to keep each cell working hard to do what it's supposed to do. CellPower™ then enables the detoxification process at the cellular level.

ALL THIS MEANS IS THAT INSPIRATION AND EXHALATION IS DONE PROPERLY RIGHT DOWN TO EACH INDIVIDUAL CELL.

~~~~

We've all heard of T-cells and how they are the immune system in microcosm, and you've no doubt been watching and waiting for the cancer vaccines, but so far (2)without going into the "precise biological workings of cancer the... findings suggest why experimental cancer vaccines have to date been plagued by T-cell tolerance, a weakened rather than strengthened immune response,... because the vaccines keep the T cells from binding with proteins that identify the foreign antigens on the surface of unhealthy cancer cells." In other words the vaccines don't work so far. BUT, there is always CellPower™
, because it raises an acidic pH that cancer thrives in to a more normal alkaline pH and therefore---TADA---no cancers.

~~~
Then there are the external agent I spoke of in my last entry, viruses, bacteria and fungus, here again we have CellPower™ to the rescue. CellPower™ kills infectious bacteria and viruses, fungi, mold, and parasites. It has been shown to boost T-cell numbers and activity. It does not harm the beneficial flora and microorganisms needed by the body.

So, now we have a healthy body, what are the benefits? First, our bodies were designed to heal, so chronic inflammatory dis-eases like Diabetes, arthritis won't start or begin going away. Allergies, Emphysema, Indigestion, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), Kidney infections, Chronic fatigue syndrome, Skin disorders Bronchial asthma, joint pain, Short-term memory loss Fibromyalgia Viral, fungal, and bacterial infections, Muscle pain, AND Candidiasis WILL BE IN OUR PAST.
Second we can successfully deal with some of our excess habits like weight control. A healthy body will be a fit body, because we'll have more energy to use to stay active.

One more thing that I find very helpful in losing weight, coconut oil



But you could also try:
Mega is the most complete daily source of Omega-3/6/9 fatty acids for healthy skin, joints, hormonal balance and cardiovascular functions


~~~ I have something I wanted to share with you today, I managed to capture a picture of a hummingbird moth in my yard. I'd read about them in my garden magazines and sure enough there it was, about an inch long, wings so fast that you cannot see them and a curly proboscis to suck the juices out of my plants.

I'll post some more garden pictures when I can mow, we've had a two month drought and I can mow until the grass greens up and needs mowing. Well parts are really tall but much is burned brown. We should be getting some rain this week and after that I can mow!

I was so desperate for some garden exercise today that I started digging up the dreaded lilac in our front yard, it's so entrenched the roots go down to China, and it's really a chore getting it out!
You can see a few new pix at my photobucket
you can see the new front garden I made this week and the lattice I painted and installed behind my hedgegarden to block the views of my neighbor's fence and weeds, not that I don't have lots of weeds in my yard this year.

~~~Jokes~~~
A trailer driver lost control of his rig, plowed into an
empty tollbooth on the Garden State Parkway and smashed it into
hundreds of pieces.

While filling out the police and insurance reports for the damage
he had caused, he noticed a crew of workers picking up each broken
piece of the wrecked tollbooth and spreading some kind of creamy
substance on it. Then they began fitting the pieces together. In
less than twenty minutes, they had the entire tollbooth
reconstructed and looking good as new.

Amazed at what he had witnessed, he asked the police officer, "What
was that white stuff those men used to assemble all those pieces
together?"

The police officer smiled and said, "Oh, that was tollgate booth
paste."

Steven Spielberg was discussing his new project - an action docudrama about famous composers starring top movie stars. Sylvester Stallone, Steven Segall, Bruce Willis, and Arnold Schwarzenegger were all present. Spielberg strongly desired the box office 'oomph' of these superstars, so he was prepared to allow them to select whatever composers they wished to portray, as long as they were famous.

"Well," started Stallone, "I've always admired Mozart. I would love to play him."

"Chopin has always been my favorite, and my image would improve if people saw me playing the piano," replied Willis. "I'll play him."

"I've always been partial to Strauss and his waltzes," said Segall. "I'd like to play him."

Spielberg was very pleased with these choices. "Sounds splendid." Then, turning to Schwarzenegger, he asked, "Who do you want to be, Arnold?" Arnold in a slow deliberate voice replied, "I'll be Bach."

tha-tha-that's all folks!

Have a great day, may you be always blessed and your wallet always full, May you find fresh pasture and cool shade. Be blessed my friends!

IMMUNE SYSTEM BOOSTER

I've studied Alternative Medicine for 40 years almost, ever since I became dissolusioned with traditional medicine. I've searched, in that time for a product that will restore my health to where I could have been before I had a massive stroke and my gall bladder removed at age 20 due to well, a series of unfortunate events at hospitals and clinics. I now have an immune system dis-ease by the name of Diabetes, also Candidiasis, Fibromyalgia, IBS, and an infiltrated liver that just works so hard to keep my body clean and is so not doing it.

However: I'm using :CellPower™
and these conditions are just fading away. How can it work on so many things? Well first it adjusts the pH, and as we've discussed; an alkaline body is a healthy body and a healthy body is able to keep itself healthy because we have awesome recuperative powers. It also kills infectious bacteria and viruses, fungi, mold, and parasites. It has been shown to boost T-cell numbers and activity. It does not harm the beneficial flora and microorganisms needed by the body. How? Because it has colloidal minerals with those properties. See here for list of ingredients

Not only is the diabetes, candida, and FM going away, but I'm sleeping better, my teeth and gums are healthier [the teeth sparkle they are so clean], I'm regrowing the hair I lost from my diabetes being out of control for so long and since cellpower also works topically my face has cleared up, no more cold sores, no more canker sores, blemishes, allergy rashes! In fact it will help with all of these:

Allergies pH imbalances Emphysema Indigestion Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) Kidney infections Chronic fatigue syndrome Skin disorders Bronchial asthma Arthritis and joint pain Short-term memory loss Fibromyalgia Viral, fungal, and bacterial infections Muscle pain Candidiasis

Since it is working so well for me I can't keep it to myself I just have to share the great news.

HEY, DON'T BELIEVE ME, SEE THESE TESTIMONIES JUST AS THEY WERE SENT TO THE CELLPOWER DISTRIBUTER here

CellPower™
I
keep as many alkalizing foods in my diet as I can, and For weight control, lowering Cholesterol, and balancing the Omega -3's and Omega-6 intake I'm still taking a tablespoon of For weight loss I'm still takingcoconut oil

The Love of Sharing Equally

A young man saw an elderly couple sitting down to lunch at McDonald's. He noticed that they had ordered one meal, and an extra drink cup. As he watched, the gentleman carefully divided the hamburger in half, then counted out the fries, one for him, one for her, until each had half of them. Then he poured half of the soft drink into the extra cup and set that in front of his wife. The old man then began to eat, and his wife sat watching, with her hands folded in her lap. The young man decided to ask if they would allow him to purchase another meal for them so that they didn't have to split theirs. The old gentleman said, "Oh no. We've been married 50 years, and everything has always been and will always be shared, 50/50." The young man then asked the wife if she was going to eat, and she replied, "Not yet. It's his turn with the teeth."
