BifidoBacteria - Good Gut Bacteria = Healthy Immune system

Bifido Bacteria - SAY WHAT???

That is the "good" gut  bacteria.  Bifido Bacteria.  Do you want them in your GUT / intestinal track?  ABSOLUTELY. 

Here is an analogy:  Do you love a barefoot lawn?  I do...  I love to lay on it, walk barefoot on it, play bocce ball on it, lay on my back on it and look at the stars at night, catch some Vitamin D while laying on it...  And I like to look at it and enjoy the beauty of it. 

I describe a barefoot lawn as all one type of grass, no weeds, no annual blue grass, cut and manicured and watered.  It is so soft and fun and beautiful and most of all cared for.

A lawn that is not cared for, becomes dry, and weed filled and is no longer beautiful.

Consider that lawn as your gut, your intestinal track.  When you don't care for it, don't water it, don't tend it, it will become sick and full of bad stuff.  This is where Bifido Bacteria come in...

Bifido Bacteria - when in your gut, will cover the walls of your intestines, not allowing the bad bacteria, ie the weeds, to fill those spots.  Which in turn, will fend off illness and disease.

Here are 7 reasons that Bifidobacteria are vital to your health

1 - Their by product stop the grown of harmful, toxic bacteria in your intestinal track.
2 - They take up the space, or fill the space, like I mentioned in the analogy, that a pathogentic organism could fill.  Bifido Bacteria crowd out these organisms.

3 - They lower blood ammonia levels by slowing the production of those toxins.

4 - They produce Folic Acid and Vitamin B.

5 - They produce digestive enzymes.

6 - This is one I LOVE - They promote immune attack against cancer cells, and stimulate the immune system.

7 - They increase essential minerals magnesium and calcium absorption.  Which help reduce the possibility of high blood pressure and diabetes.  As we age these tend to decline in our body, so helping them increase just by the increase of Bifidobacteria in your gut is a very positive move to your WalkToHealth.me journey. 

Increased refine sugars kill bifidobacteria in the gut and feed the parasitical yeast, fungi, and bacteria that contribute to disease. 

The question to ask yourself.  Is your lawn (gut) a beautiful, healthy one, working to make you healthy inside and out?  Or is your lawn (gut) a brown, ugly, toxin-producing one, with no way to fight off illness and disease? 

Step one in your journey to increasing the health in your gut...  Add Kombucha to your diet.  Watch my 2 part video on how to make your own Kombucha.  It is a great source for a probiotic.

ADD / ADHD Using Essential Oils - Alternative Healing

ADD and ADHD have been two issues that have increased in number effected over the last 30 years.

I attribute much of that increase to what we have done to our guts over the past 30 years.  There have been many studies written about ADD & ADHD.  What I believe is the bottom line on much of the issue is lack of ability to absorb nutrients.

So how do we go about re-gaining that ability?

First is re-establish healthy gut flora.

If you have a child who is ADD or ADHD, look at the history of the health of your child AND the history of the health of the parents.

Were there pharmaceuticals taken by any of them that would destroy the flora?  Antibiotics being the number one offender.  When we take antibiotics we are not told to take a probiotic after, and for at least 9 months, if not a year. 

My recommendation for re-establishing healthy gut flora is to drink 1 - 2 bottles of kombucha a day.  I would start slow, because it can cause your gut to detox, and 'clean house'.

I will be posting a video soon on how I make my own Kombucha.  It is really VERY easy to do and much more cost effective.

Second Establish a good Living Essential Oils System

Terry Friedmann, MD, completed pioneering studies using essential oils to combat ADD/ADHD and achieved clinically significant results in 60 days.  Researchers postulate that essential oils mitigate ADD/ADHD through their stimulation on the limbic system of the brain.

ADD/ADHD is thought to be caused by mineral deficiencies due to the lack of ability to absorb.  Once the absorption issue is taken care of via good gut flora, then minerals can then once again be taken up in the body's system.

Essential Oils:
Vetiver, Lavendar, Cedarwood, Clarity
Or blends:
Brain Power, Peace & Calming, Clarity



Application Methods:
Diffusion: 15 min 4-8 times a day

Third add in Real Food Technology Supplements without synthetics

Supplements:
Advanced Ambrotose: 2 times a day (Glyco Nutrient - food for the cells)
Manna Bears 2 times a day for children 15 years old and younger






Fourth consult with me about what needs to change in the diet

Removed all food dyes, and packaged meals.
Eat 2/3 raw plant meals
Be careful of the source of your meats

Komucha Tea -

My first recipe of Kombucha Tea was from a starter pack that I bought on a late night run to Whole Foods.  And there I found a KT Starter kit from OK Oregon Kombucha.  The tea was Coconut Green Tea.  WOW WOW WOW!!!  WHAT a WONDERFUL flavor.  Well I haven't had that blend since but had my SCOBY Hotel with that tea, and the SCOBY in there was in that tea. 

About 2 weeks ago I started an extra gallon of KT and used about 2 cups from the SCOBY Hotel and a SCOBY from there and another blend of loose tea. 

THERE IT WAS AGAIN... that wonderful taste of that Coconut Green Tea from my first batch.  Just a hint of it.  BUT oh my, such a wonderful hint.  So I got on to http://oregonkombucha.com and ordered some Coconut Green Tea.  I can hardly wait for it to arrive to start a batch of it.  Because OK Oregon Kombucha is only about 20 miles from me, it should be here in 2 days... 

I had a couple of questions so called in and got a call back from the owner Phyllis Abbot and she was very helpful and totally understood my love for that tea. 

Even if you are not making Kombucha, take time to order that tea from them.  Especially if you are a tea lover!  Or maybe you want to buy some for Christmas for someone who loves tea.  WONDERFUL tea, and a Wonderful company to purchase from.  Each bag makes a gallon of tea.

Kombucha - WHAT IS IT???

Hey all, I am learning so much about Holistic Health in my IIN course.  I am excited to share with you wonderful information on how to heal your bodies and "Reclaim your peace of mind and body".

I have been brewing my own Kombucha Tea for a while now and it is amazing.  AND EASY!!  The health benefits you can receive from it is amazing.

Here are a few, though I would like you to go to the link at the right and check out Hannah's site.  She is amazing and has VERY nice SCOBY if you wanted to try it out for yourself.  To make it is easy, the hard part is waiting for the first brew to be ready.  I have brewed with the continuous and the single method, and I prefer the continuous.  Okay I did say I was going to give you some of the benefits...

It is naturally carbonated and is purported to have a host of healing properties that may include:

*Probiotics – healthy bacteria
*Alkalize the body – balances internal pH
*Detoxify the liver – happy liver = happy mood
*Increase metabolism – rev your internal engine
*Improve digestion – keep your system moving
*Rebuild connective tissue – helps with arthritis, gout, asthma, rheumatism
*Cancer prevention
*Alleviate constipation
*Boost energy – helps with chronic fatigue
*Reduce blood pressure
*Relieve headaches & migraines
*Reduce kidney stones




OH WAIT - I said I was only going to give you a few...  click on the link on the right and you can read the rest of them.  OKAY one more...

*Reduce gray hair   (one of my favorites!! Time will tell! And only my stylist will know!)

Kombucha doesn’t cure ANYTHING, it just brings the body back into balance so that it may heal itself naturally.  Which is what my practice focuses on.  Your body re-balancing to be able to heal itself as God intended our bodies to do.
