I wanted to address this issue simply because I’ve witnessed people criticizing each other on their food choice.  The answer to this issue can be found in Romans 14 (NLT):
1 Accept other believers who are weak in faith, and don’t argue with them about what they think is right or wrong. 2 For instance, one person believes it’s all right to eat anything. But another believer with a sensitive conscience will eat only vegetables. 3 Those who feel free to eat anything must not look down on those who don’t. And those who don’t eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, for God has accepted them. 4 Who are you to condemn someone else’s servants? They are responsible to the Lord, so let Him judge whether they are right or wrong. And with the Lord’s help, they will do what is right and will receive his approval.
5 In the same way, some think one day is more holy than another day, while others think every day is alike. You should each be fully convinced that whichever day you choose is acceptable. 6 Those who worship the Lord on a special day do it to honor him. Those who eat any kind of food do so to honor the Lord, since they give thanks to God before eating. And those who refuse to eat certain foods also want to please the Lord and give thanks to God. 7 For we don’t live for ourselves or die for ourselves. 8 If we live, it’s to honor the Lord. And if we die, it’s to honor the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. 9 Christ died and rose again for this very purpose—to be Lord both of the living and of the dead. 10 So why do you condemn another believer? Why do you look down on another believer? Remember, we will all stand before the judgment seat of God. 11 For the Scriptures say:
“‘As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bend to me, and every tongue will confess and give praise to God.”
12 Yes, each of us will give a personal account to God. 13 So let’s stop condemning each other. Decide instead to live in such a way that you will not cause another believer to stumble and fall. 14 I know and am convinced on the authority of the Lord Jesus that no food, in and of itself, is wrong to eat. But if someone believes it is wrong, then for that person it is wrong. 15 And if another believer is distressed by what you eat, you are not acting in love if you eat it. Don’t let your eating ruin someone for whom Christ died. 16 Then you will not be criticized for doing something you believe is good. 17 For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. 18 If you serve Christ with this attitude, you will please God, and others will approve of you, too. 19 So then, let us aim for harmony in the church and try to build each other up. 20 Don’t tear apart the work of God over what you eat. Remember, all foods are acceptable, but it is wrong to eat something if it makes another person stumble. 21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything else if it might cause another believer to stumble. 22 You may believe there’s nothing wrong with what you are doing, but keep it between yourself and God. Blessed are those who don’t feel guilty for doing something they have decided is right. 23 But if you have doubts about whether or not you should eat something, you are sinning. If you go ahead and do it, for you are not following your convictions. If you do anything you believe is not right, you are sinning.

The moral of this story, God’s job is to judge, the Holy Spirit’s job is to convict, and our job is to love one another.  When it comes to our diet, food made by “God” (excluding processed food & genetically modified foods) is always a ‘living’ choice.  Nutritional information is provided to you so that you can make a more informed choice.  Once a wise person knows better, they do better.  I hope this revelation set you free!

Remember: Life is simply one choice after another leading to more life, or death…I pray you choose life! Quoted by: Trina Claiborne

Our bodies produce hydrogen peroxide to stimulate the immune system to fight viruses, bacteria and fungus.   T-cells are a type of blood cell that protects the body from infections by releasing H2O2 to destroy the invaders.   A mother’s breast milk is high in H2O2 to activate and stimulate the immune system in the infant.   This is why babies on soy milk and other formulas are more likely to have allergies because they didn’t get the chance to build the immune system from breast milk.   The acidophilus lactobacillus in the large intestine produces H2O2 to keep candida yeast from multiplying out of control.

Before using hydrogen peroxide therapy, it’s important to understand the different grades available:
• 3% Pharmaceutical Grade – available in local drug store and to be used externally only due to the added stabilizers.
• 6% Beautician Grade – used by hair stylist and not to be used internally.
• 30% Reagent Grade – Used in scientific experiments and not to be used internally.
• 30 – 32% Electronic Grade – Used to clean electronics and not to be used internally.
• 35% Technical Grade – similar to Reagent Grade, but more concentrated.
• 35% Food Grade – This is the ONLY grade of H2O2 recommended for internal usage, but it must be diluted with distilled water before being taken internally.
• 90% – This is used as a source of oxygen in rocket fuel.

After the 35% food grade is diluted, it comes with many benefits such as: reverse gum disease, fight cavities, and whiten teeth, reverse virus, bacteria and fungi born diseases and help plants growth due to the increase in oxygen.   In the book by Madison Cavanaugh called, “The One-Minute Cure” reveals the secrets to reversing virtually all diseases by getting rid of the invaders causing the disease.

The 23-Day Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy Regimen can be downloaded and available for your use. When you purchase 35% food grade H2O2 in your local vitamin store it should be in the refrigerated section; otherwise you can purchase it here already as Food Grade 3% Hydrogen Peroxide-32 ozs.

Some of the products and procedures used to fight aging are not accessible or desirable by some people for various reasons such as:  fear, lack of financial resources or pre-existing medical conditions & psychological issues that disqualify them as a candidate.  In order to explore other solutions, it’s a great idea to determine what causes aging or rapid aging in the first place.  Speaking of “rapid aging”, now that’s a club you do not want to become a member of.  Rapid aging can be the results of genetics or living a lifestyle conducive to rapid aging.  A few activities that contribute to it are:  smoking, being overweight, drinking excessive alcohol, constant stress, lack of sleep & exercise, not absorbing adequate amounts of vitamins & minerals, lack of water consumption, lack of moisture replacement internally and externally and the biggest one with new nutritional information is not absorbing high levels of antioxidants to fight free radicals that leads to aging.

A quick lesson on free radicals:  free radicals are the by-products generated when our body burns energy through metabolism or become invaded by carcinogens like:  stress, pollution & cigarettes, etc.  They are damaged cells (missing electrons) attempting to become normal by attacking normal cells (cells with electrons intact).  Once they make contact with normal cells, the normal cells then become a free radicals and spread throughout the body resulting in oxidative stress.  Oxidative stress leads to pre-mature aging, cancer, and other degenerative diseases.  Here’s a video providing a visual demonstration:

As you may or may not know, our body really is a walking energy source.  Every cell in our body has a little energy generating chamber called the “Mitochondria”.  Our fat cells may have about 2 – 3, our muscle cells have about 2500 and the skeletal cells have over 100’s of thousands of them as well as other major organs.  In addition to aging us, free radicals will damage the mitochondria cell membrane at a faster pace, causing them to become dysfunctional, degenerate and die; as you now known this is the Oxidative Stress process.  Once the body is in the oxidative stress mode the following will become a reality if not reduced:  the signs of aging increase, we lose energy, the brain functions decline resulting in Parkinson disease & memory loss, the heart doesn’t pump as hard, the kidney function declines, our muscles get weaker and muscle mass decreases as well as other major organ starts to degenerate in performance.   

Super Antioxidants is the secret solution.  Antioxidants are molecules capable of stopping the oxidation of other molecules.   Antioxidants terminate the chain reaction of free radicals by removing free radical intermediates (it donates an electron) and stops additional oxidation reactions.  Antioxidants are found in fruits & vegetables high in ascorbic acid (vitamin C) or polyphenols like: acai berries, oranges, blue berries, blackberries, and broccoli to name a few.  These sources of antioxidants are great if grown organically without herbicides, pesticides and being genetically modified; otherwise it defeats the purpose of any attempts to get rid of free radicals.  With that said, supplementation is the key for maximum absorption of high dosage of antioxidants we now need.  The top super antioxidant supplements are:  Glutathione, Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ), CoEnzyme10 (CoQ10) and Ubiquinol.  By taking these supplements together, you will regenerate, replace, restore and make new more powerful mitochondria.

Glutathione (Max GXL®) is a small protein produced naturally in the body if the required building blocks are available.  It functions as an antioxidants and an antitoxin; which, slows the aging process, detoxify the liver, strengthens the immune system, increases energy, permits increased exercise, detoxifies the body, fights intracellular inflammation, and is critical to optimum brain function and neutralizes numerous types of free radicals.  Investing in supplements that promote the increase natural production of glutathione will force the body to produce and absorb it like it once did when younger.  These nutrients create synergy in promoting the body’s own ability to manufacture and absorb glutathione such as:  Calcium Ascorbate, L-Glutamine, Milk Thistle, N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), N-acetyl-D-Glucosamine (NAG), Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), Quercitin & Cordyceps.  These ingredients are found in Max GXL® -, and it will dramatically raise your glutathione levels, with increases up to 292%.

(PQQ)- Pyrroloquinoline Quinone - a micronutrient once known as a nonessential antioxidant.  It was first discovered in 1979, but wasn’t immediately recognized as a vitamin.  Now it has been established as the first new vitamin discovered since 1948.  This discovery was announced in the May 1, 2003 edition of the journal “Nature”.  PQQ belongs to the B-complex family of vitamins.  PQQ acts as a cell-signaling molecule that seems to initiate or optimize mitochondrial production. There are number of compounds that fall in to this category like:  Resveratrol from wine, Quercetin found in many fruits and vegetables, and Hydroxytyrosol from olive oil.  When present, they interact with protein factors that may stimulate mitochondrial production called mitochondriogenesis, when needed. It increases immune response, reproduction, skin health and amino acid breakdown.  Recommended dosage is about 10 to 20mg per day.

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)- is a compound found naturally in the mitochondria and is also an antioxidant.  It is involved in the making of the molecule (ATP) Adenosine Triphosphate.  ATP is the cell’s major energy source and it controls a number of our biological processes like producing protein and contracting our muscles.  The benefits of CoQ10 are: neutralizes free radicals, boosts energy, enhances the immune system; therefore, it help prevent heart disease, heart failures, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, breast cancer, diabetes, periodontal (gum) disease and other degenerative diseases.  Recommended dosage is about 100mg per day if under 40 years old and 200 mg per day if over 40.

Ubiquinol is the reduced and active form of Coenzyme Q10.  For individuals over 40, or for those who are affected by chronic disease, Ubiquinol is likely more beneficial since the body’s ability to produce CoQ10 and convert it into Ubiquinol has diminished.   Ubiquinol is more bioavailable than CoQ10; therefore, your dosage can be less.  The recommended dosage is about 50 to 100 mg per day.

Note:  Always consult your doctor before taking supplements, especially if you have a chronic illness like:  diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or any major organ problems as the supplement may affect the medication you are currently using.

The next stage of stress is the “resistance or adaptive” stage where the body learns to cope with the stressful situation. This is the beginning of the danger because the cortisol receptors in the hypothalamus (the part of the brain that regulate bodily temperature, certain metabolic processes, and other autonomic activities) becomes less sensitive to the homeostasis process and the body remains in the flight or fight stage. When this happens increased amounts of cortisol are produced resulting in various disorders such as headaches, insomnia, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.

The final stage of stress is the exhaustion stage which occurs due to the resistance or adaptive stage causing the adrenal glands to become overwhelmed. This stage is characterized by the depletion of energy and will eventually lead to Adrenal Insufficiency or total shutdown of the adrenal glands; also known as adrenal maladaptation syndrome.

The top four stress categories are:

• Physical Stress – includes excessive or endurance exercise, child birth, hard labor, injury, burns and surgery to name a few.
• Psycho-Spiritual Stress – includes relationship pressure, financial pressure, career pressure, life goal issues and spiritual pressures.
• Emotional Stress – includes fear as the foundation that manifest as anger, frustration, sadness, and depression. Betrayal and bereavement also falls into this category.
• Mental Stress – includes high responsibility, long work hours and perfectionism which can cause anxiety.

When it comes to stress, our bodies can’t tell the difference between these categories; therefore, the body response the same regardless. In our society today, psycho-spiritual stress, emotional stress and mental stress is at an all time high, and the majority of them are stuck in the adaptive stage leading to the exhaustion stage. Our stressed-out society is living with the highest rate of hypertension, depression, obesity, heart disease and many other stress related diseases of all time.

Stress management is the key to help alleviate high levels of stress in our lives: 

1. Cast your cares on the Lord as it is stated in Philippians 4:8-9: “8- And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing: Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. 9-Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me- everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.”
2. Exercise regularly mixing cardio and strength training at least three to four times a week.
3. Take supplements to help our bodies naturally fight against stress such as Vitamin C, E, B6, and minerals like Zinc and Magnesium and herbs such as Ashwagandha, Chamomile, Catnip, Ginkgo Biloba, Golden Root, Kava Kava. Eating more fresh fruits and vegetable will give the body a chance to fight stress simply because these are the foods our body absorbs the most nutrients to fuel our bodies and naturally fight against stress.

Fatty Liver Solution

Cirrhosis of the liver (scar tissue build-up due to the liver attempting to metabolize alcohol, pharmaceutical drugs and other toxins over a long period of time), fatty liver (fat stored in the liver due to obesity or diabetes), hepatitis (decaying liver cells and a great number of inflamed liver cells), and jaundice (it is not a disease, but a symptom characterized by the yellowing of the skin and eyes) are known diagnoses of a dysfunctional liver.  The top three causes of liver dysfunctions are alcohol consumption abuse, pharmaceutical drug usage over a long period of time, and obesity.  Once the liver has been compromised, the entire body can and will be affected simply because the body has no way of cleansing toxins from the blood.  The main function of blood is to carry nutrients and oxygen to every cell in our body; therefore, toxic blood will eventually cause the organs receiving this toxic blood to deteriorate and no longer function.  As a result, the following diseases can develop: lupus (an autoimmune disease where the body is attacking itself), intestinal permeability (a build-up of antigens or molecules that stimulates the immune system to create antibodies), halitosis (bad breath), and mature age acne…these are only a few.

Although liver care has not been given as much publicity as our heart, brain and colon; the attention and awareness is raising simply because of the increase pharmaceutical drugs usage, obesity and diabetes in America.   Today people are beginning to see the liver side effect from pharmaceutical drugs use, people are looking for more natural ways to take care of their liver. Herbalists have known for over 2000 years that Milk Thistle extract is the best supplement to not only repair liver damage, but to prevent liver damage due to exposure to toxic chemicals and medication.  Milk thistle is a flowering plant of the daisy family native to the Mediterranean regions of Europe.  The seed of Milk thistle has been used for liver care for thousands of years and that has not changed to this day.  Various natural supplement companies sale milk thistle mixed with other liver supportive ingredients.

Another approach to liver care is through the diet.  There are a variety of food we can consume to support the liver.  Vegetables such as: broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, and cauliflower contain phytochemicals to breakdown toxins as well as help the liver produce the enzymes it needs for detoxification.  Apples contain a substance called pectin which attaches itself to heavy metals to help your body excrete them.  Artichokes increase the production of bile which helps move toxins through the bowels.  Garlic contains allicin, a sulfur-like compound that helps cleanse the liver of substances like mercury and food additives.  A healthy liver will help you burn excess fat, improve your energy and metabolism.
