Isotonic Vitamins

What is Isotonix? Simply, Isotonic solution is the same pressure as your body fluid.

In more detail, the word isotonic means same pressure, which in this case, is referring to the same osmotic pressure as bodily fluids. This includes tears, plasma in the blood, sweat, saliva and other bodily fluids. Everything you ingest must be made into an isotonic solution before it can be absorbed by the small intestine. This process involves gastric acid being secreted into the food, along with stomach muscles contractions, until a uniform isotonic solution is made. This shows that digestion takes a while because this is only step one.

When you take an isotonic vitamins it is already the same as your bodily fluids. So therefore, the first step can be shortened and isotonic vitamins can get to the small intestine quicker and be absorbed within minutes. The main reason this occurs is due to biological sensors, that can tell when the ingested isotonic vitamin have attained the best level of acidity to match the body. Therefore, it becomes an isotonic solution. The sensors prompt the muscle between the stomach and intestines to open and allow the isotonic vitamin solution to pass through.

Have you ever been cleaning with chemicals and you just can’t get the mold off your tub? Mold can be very difficult to remove. The traditional cleaning products may not be able to handle the job. Well, there are natural herbs that can do the trick such as tea tree oil, lavendar, and uva ursa.

Tea tree oil has antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiseptic qualities. Tea tree oil appears to be effective against athlete’s foot, scabies, and head lice. Tea tree oil is also possibly effective against acne.

Iron Chef

If you have watched the Food Network then, you have most likely viewed the Iron Chef. They always have a “secret ingredient” to incorporate into all their courses. Well, how about cooking allergen-free? That would be a very interesting challenge.

The most common food allergies are considered nuts, fish, eggs, gluten, dairy, and soy. Now, you might be thinking, if you have to take away all of those ingredients, what can you make?

Well, there are three courses, the appetizer, the main entree, and the dessert. One secret ingredient could be citrus fruits such as lemon, lime, and orange.

The first course can be all roasted vegetables which include peppers, zucchini, eggplant, carrots, garlic, broccoli, and cherry tomatoes. They are very savory and flavorful, especially when, citrus fruits roast in the pan along side them.

As for the meal, lemon pepper chicken and a side dish of herbal jasmine rice. The rice should have all freshly, diced herbs such as parsley, basil, sage, and topped off with chives.

Lastly, is the sweet treat of dessert, a pumpkin bread. You can bake it with the following ingredients: canned pumpkins, orange zest, maple syrup, apple sauce, salt, baking soda and powder. You can plate it with fresh berries.

As you can see, it could be possible from the sample idea listed above. It could be an exciting episode!

Viruses

If you have unexplainable fatigue and you do not know why, the reason could be Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome, aka CFIDS.

Have you ever gone to your doctor and your CBC showed elevated lymphocytes? If you do not know, lymphocytes are white blood cells in the immune system that fight off infections. Anyway, when they are raised that usually means a viral load, such as CMV, HHV-6, and EBV.

Now, these are nothing to fear, they can easily be treated. Your body is telling you it is run down, so you obviously need rest for starters. Then, the next step is Vitamin C and natural immune boosting supplements, such as Larch Arabinogalactan or Lauricidin, plus it contains anti-viral properties.

Your blood results should go back into range with this treatment course.

Muscle Maker Grill

Protein is an essential part of the diet. It helps build muscle and burn fat. Now, I am not talking like a body builder, but just healthy muscle that everyone needs.

To gain muscle, aka lean body mass, you need the proper nutrition. Simply, by eating chicken, turkey, and fish you have found your protein sources. The human body requires, most people, to have five to six meals a day, which means three snacks and three entrees. At your snack time; have nut spreads, raw nuts, or even a protein bar.
