Kombucha Tea: A Panacea For Many Ills

Let’s go right to the heart of the matter. What is it about Kombucha Tea that makes it such an elixir of sorts?!

Why did the remote villages in Russia, where meat-eating and potatoes and vodka were standard fare every day, experience such unusual longevity and robust health by drinking Kombucha Tea?

Wherever Kombucha Tea has been used as a healing beverage, it has produced remarkable health benefits which are very easily understood. First, we look to the contexts like the remote Russian villages of yesteryear where diet was not aligned with the highest understanding.

When the body takes in foods that are ama-producing (meat) and toxic (vodka) and arthritis-triggering (potatoes), we have a perfect place to evaluate the effectiveness of such a powerful detoxifier like Kombucha. Truly, Kombucha Tea is a detoxification agent par excellence.

Why? Because it contains LOTS of glucuronic acid.
What is glucuronic acid? It is a well known and major detoxifying agent that combines with toxic chemicals and poisonous substances, making them more water-soluble which allows for quick and easy elimination from the body.   Continue reading

Bi-Polar Disorder: Why so common and how to alleviate?

If ever there was a truly American psychiatric condition, Bi-polar disorder (aka Manic-depressive disorder) is it. Everything about Society USA promotes such a condition from our youngest ages. As we unpack the several components of the mental and emotional baggage associated with Bi-polar disorder (BPD), you’ll quickly see how easy it is to manage … and then be free of altogether.

Let’s take a close look at the cultures in which BPD is most prevalent. Clearly, we find it showing up in societies which have a high incidence of addictions. Any kind of addictions – nicotine, caffeine, alcohol, recreational drugs, sugar, wheat, sex, gambling, sports, computer, TV, workaholism, etc. Why is there a direct correlation between the two? That’s a very good question you might want to reflect upon, if you feel you might have the manic-depressive tendency.

First, we see that addictions are an extreme response to life’s pressures, as is BPD. They are also frequently learned from previous generations, especially here in America. Every immigrant had(s) to deal with extraordinary challenges to make it in a foreign land. The first generation to join the melting pot often evolved coping behaviors which allowed them to survive. Especially when things got real tough, which they often did.

The lack of real community in a nation of workaholics or sportaholics and computerholics also makes for a dearth of social opportunities to communicate shared experience. When life is moving very fast, as it is today, this lack of a necessary social support system becomes all the more influential. What then happens is that the individual often resorts to going it alone, which is already highly encouraged by American society.   Continue reading

Chemical Apocalypse Causes Genetic Damage To Children

The field of epigenetics has uncovered an ongoing chemical apocalypse:

“Red alert for humanity: Chemical damage can be inherited by offspring through unlimited generations”[1]

The Health Coach receives all the daily emails from all the major health and wellness sites. Today’s email contained an article that goes right to the heart of our society’s biggest health challenge. Truly, the playing field has never been so leveled as it is today as we all sit in a sea of chemical pollution.

We do not in any way mean to diminish the other forms of pollution which also surround us. (e.g. radioactive, emr, particulate forms of pollution are also at quite serious levels).

Again the title of the article was:
“Red alert for humanity: Chemical damage can be inherited by offspring through unlimited generations”

Now that’s pretty serious, isn’t it?!

No need to worry about your exposures because there is only so much you can do on the macro level. No reason to fret about your exposures on the micro level, either. This is where you have much control, if you’re smart, observant, disciplined and responsive. Are you?   Continue reading

Bad Oils: The Hidden Destroyer of Health

America — the land of fast food; the land of food on demand.

America — the origin of hydrogenated vegetable oils; the origin of margarine; the origin of “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!

We can't believe it's edible!

America — the land of supermarkets filled with dead, denatured, devitalized, filtered, refined, chemically extracted, rancid, toxic food oils (especially corn oil). How long did your family use that stuff?!

Truly, it’s the oil that is slowly … ever so slowly … ruining the health of the country. And wherever else we export our highly inferior eating oils to around the globe.

Yeah, yeah, yeah … there’s white sugar and tainted dairy, heavily glutenized wheat and gmo soy, caffeine and nicotine, frozen food and canned food that are also vying for that top spot. But, it’s the oils … the really bad oils which gum up the works for decades because they don’t receive adequate attention for the damage they really do. And, they are hidden much better … … … everywhere … … … throughout the packaged food supply of the nation.

Just where are we going with this?

With this coaching session, or on the current trajectory of massive amounts of substandard oil ingestion?!   Continue reading

Solar and Lunar Eclipses: Don’t Watch Them!

If you place no faith in astrology, you may not want to keep reading.

If you’ve ever heard of “Saturn Return” or “Mercury in Retrograde” or “Pluto in Capricorn”, then you just might want to keep on reading.

Regardless of your understanding of astrology and how accurate it can be, we offer the following health blog so that you will get a sense of how seriously we take threats to health and wellness. Here’s our coaching session on cell phones as an example:

Cell Phones & Smartphones: AVOID The EMR Output!

For those who are true believers in this subject, please continue to read this piece very carefully. It just may save you from ….

Eclipses, both solar and lunar, are considered very inauspicious events throughout the field of astrology. Whether it is the sun’s rays that are being blocked as perceived from the earth, or the moon-rays that are being obstructed, a similar celestial phenomenon is occurring. In both cases the light from a major luminary in our sky is being temporarily cut off or obscured.

The Sun and the Moon are the most important luminaries in the heavens. Who would dispute that? Therefore, when the light of either of these two heavenly bodies is prevented from reaching the Earth, something very dramatic is really happening … astrologically speaking, that is.   Continue reading

HVAC Systems: Is Yours Contaminating Your Home?

Heating and Air Conditionings Systems (HVACs) are not all made alike. Nor are all HVAC Systems made for all the different weather patterns that we see around a country like the good ole USA. Can you imagine how difficult it is for the same basic HVAC unit to heat or cool air in such different climates as Florida and Minnesota? And how about the differences between Utah and South Carolina?

What is the point here?

The differences in air temperature, humidity and pressure are so varied in fact that each geographic location can require different types of equipment to properly and safely condition the air.

“How’s that?”, you ask.

There are some critical variables which determine how well and efficiently an HVACs will do its job. We just mentioned three of those – temperature, humidity and pressure. You can imagine that, if the temperature is very high, the humidity is very high and the pressure is very low, the environment inside an air handler is going to be very conducive for things to go wrong.

And go very wrong they will. Here’s an example:   Continue reading

Fiberglass Insulation: Extremely Hazardous To Your Health!

Everyone knows about the fiberglass insulation that has been used for many decades in attics all over America. It comes in two forms: blown in wads and rolled in mats. In both cases these two forms of roof insulation have proven to create a ubiquitous health disaster throughout every residential subdivision.

Do you know what happens to this fiberglass that sits in the attic through alternating periods of heat and cold, humidity and dryness? It breaks down and dusts. It is then carried by the air movement all over the attic, as well as into the wall spaces.

This is where the problem really begins. You see, when the air conditioning turns on in the southern regions, a negative pressure is created within the home. Likewise, when the heat pump turns on in the colder regions the same negative pressure is induced. This negative pressure throughout the home pulls air from unconditioned spaces into conditioned spaces. More specifically, the following excerpt from hvac-talk.com describes what really happens here.   Continue reading

Chronic Insomnia: Turn Your Bedroom Into A Cocoon

Who in the modern world doesn’t have problems getting to sleep every once in a while?

Who among us is never able to get to sleep, even when they’re exhausted physically and mentally?

It is the latter case to which we speak: however, even if you enjoy sound sleep you might want to listen … carefully.

During each night that the body sleeps much occurs of which we are completely unaware. There are myriad processes of repair and rejuvenation which take place which are vital to how we will feel the next day. Deep and restful sleep creates the optimal environment for all of these internal healing and detoxification mechanisms to occur with efficiency and success.

In fact, so much goes on during sleep that it is way beyond the scope of this session to fully discuss. Suffice to say: WE ALL NEED OUR SLEEP. Especially during these stressful times when inordinate demands are placed on body, mind and spirit. This is Part I of our series on Insomnia and perhaps the most important. Important because it will speak directly to a major co-factor of chronic insomnia.   Continue reading

Breast Implants: Silicone Is Dangerous To Your Health

So are other substances and materials found in Breast Implants!

We did not initially write this piece for the many women in the world who have had breast implants for purely cosmetic reasons. Most of them knew the risks associated with this type of elective surgery, or at least had access to accurate information regarding the potential health problems of breast implants. They have made their choices, and can undo them whenever they so choose although not without consequence.

However, there are thousands of women throughout Europe who have filed lawsuits against the French manufacturer of a defective breast implant product. The great majority of those women elected to have these implants for the purpose of breast enlargement. While this decision was probably taken against the good advice of their own intuition, yes, we do hope to shed light on this emerging health crisis for all concerned?

Why would anyone want to put silicone in their body, especially in an area of the body that is particularly vulnerable to cancer, tumors, fibroid cysts and calcium deposits, among other types of growths and toxic buildups? Wouldn’t common sense dictate not to have a breast implant(s) for this reason alone.

We do wish to address a serious medical predicament which is becoming more common, particularly in light of the increasing incidence of breast cancer.
There are many women who have had either single or double mastectomies in the wake of breast cancer. This scenario presents an entirely different situation than the aforementioned. It is these folks, and those who have yet to have a recommended mastectomy, to whom we wish to speak in this health session. That’s not to say that this exposé will not be equally helpful for those who did make their decisions based solely on the purpose of breast enhancement.

Any woman who is approached during their post-mastectomy period is highly vulnerable to advice or solicitations to avail themselves for breast implants. It is quite understandable why this would be the case. They are shocked, scarred, hurt and wanting to be ‘made whole’. This tragic situation, not too unlike PTSD, causes them to enter a period of extreme vulnerability. This is when many usually make the fateful decision to proceed with breast implants.

The frame of mind and emotional bearing during this period is very similar to that of PTSD (Post Tramatic Stress Disorder) and is the primary reason why many of these same women agree to proceed with this ill-advised procedure. If they knew what they were setting themselves up for, they would abandon any such plans in a heartbeat.   Continue reading

Oil Pulling: An Oral Health Miracle

Oil Pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic practice that is as effective as it is mysterious. Many who write about this alternative healing modality are unaware of the much more significant and subtle benefits of this regular practice. However some, such as the www.oilpulling.com description that follows, have elaborated on some of the less obvious health improvements from oil pulling as follows:

Oil Pulling Results and Oil Pulling Health Benefits

“The result of this healing research has attracted amazement and resulted in further research. This additional research concerning Oil Therapy has now been thoroughly documented, especially with regard to physiological similarities between individuals. It is surprising that through this biological healing method a wide variety of symptoms have unquestionably disappeared without any side-effects. This simple method makes it possible to completely heal such a wide variety of diseases which would normally be treated by an operation or by powerful or potent Drugs, usually with significant side-effects.
The simplicity of this healing system in which Oil is swirled backwards and forwards in the mouth, is due to the stimulating effect which it has on the body’s eliminatory system.

Through this method it is possible to heal individual cells, cell conglomerates such as lymph nodes and more complex tissues such as internal organs simultaneously. This occurs because the beneficial microflora throughout the body are provided with a healthy continuum. Without this natural bodily intrusive element evinced by the microflora the usual pattern of human health tends to lean towards illness rather than wellness. Dr. Karach anticipates that regular application of this treatment by reversing this process so that wellness is the dominant state of the human body is likely to increase the average human lifespan to approximately 150 years, double the present life expectancy.

By means of this treatment – Oil Pulling – it is invariably the result that diseases like migraine headaches, bronchitis, diseased teeth, arterio thrombosis, chronic blood disorders such as leukemia, arthritis and related illnesses, neuro physiological paralysis, eczema, gastro enteritis, peritonitis, heart disease, kidney disease, meningitis, and womens hormonal disorders are completely eliminated from the organism.

The benefit of Dr. Karach’s method is that the oil therapy heals the whole body in perpetuity. In terminal diseases such as cancer, Aids and chronic infections this treatment method has been shown to successfully replace all others. Dr. Karach has successfully healed a chronic leukemia patient with 15 years of harsh treatment methods behind him. Acute arthritis in 1 patient who was totally bedridden was removed from his body in 3 days with no inflammation apparent.”
