Dietary supplements are available for any health need you can think of, but all supplements are not the same. Some are all-natural while others are chemically based. Some can be safely combined with other supplements or medications while others can't. It's a smart decision to educate yourself about dietary supplements before buying. Here are some facts you should know before trying any supplement or vitamin.

Do You have Undiagnosed Health Needs?

Before you rush out and buy the latest supplement for nutrition - vitamins, herbs, etc. to cure your problem - see a doctor to properly diagnose your health need. Some health conditions carry multiple symptoms, and those symptoms might also be present with other health issues. So you really can't know for sure what your exact health need is until it's diagnosed by a medical doctor through deductive reasoning and diagnostic testing.

Medications

If you currently take prescribed medications or even certain over-the-counter medicines, ask your doctor or pharmacist before adding vitamins or dietary supplements to your daily intake. Certain supplements might cause side effects if blended with other medicines. For instance, if you're taking heart or blood pressure medication, find out which supplements could cause a negative reaction with these particular medicines. The same goes for medications for diabetes, cholesterol, and cancer medicines or treatments.

Limit Your Initial Intake of Supplements

Start out by taking only one or two supplements and give your body a chance to get use to the changes. Then you might decide to add another supplement for a specific health need. Supplements aren't meant to provide a quick fix, but are actually meant to promote long-term optimal health. Start small and gradually increase your knowledge about supplements to enjoy long-term benefits.

Weight Loss Diets and Supplements

Dietary supplements are not to substitute quality foods and nutrition in your diet. Dieting should consist of the recommended amounts of fruits, vegetables, meats, nuts, grains, and dairy to achieve your weight loss goals. Depriving yourself of a nutritional diet will only cause more health problems or greater weight problems later on. Supplements can help you achieve your weight loss goals by boosting your vitamin intake, and thus boosting your body's immunity and energy. Be sure to exercise daily and drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated.

Buy from a High Quality Distributor

Vitamin supplements seem to be a dime a dozen, but not all are considered to be of high quality. Some are manufactured in such a way that causes the supplement to lose its effectiveness. They're sold in every store at dirt-cheap prices, but their nutritional value is next to nothing. You can find higher quality supplements online or at specialty supplement stores if you know where to look. Beware of outrageous claims, and make sure the supplement is indeed "all natural" if the company makes this claim. Find a company that not only offers to sell items, but also offers helpful advice on how to properly use and combine supplements.

Now that you're armed with these tips, check out a dependable supplement source online if you want to lose weight, promote a healthy immune system, and enjoy overall good health

Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils and Colon Health

Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils and Colon Health

Essential oils are able to produce the desired result quicker than herbs. A drop of peppermint oil is equal to 26 cups of peppermint tea. Essential oils have multi-effects where many drugs have usually have only one medical property plus negative side effects.

Applying essential oils to their paws is not recommended by some health care professionals. Pets lick their feet and this could cause possible irritation as saliva is similar to water. Essential oils enter the skin quickly. Compounds like fertilizer, antifreeze and other toxicants could be absorbed more quickly when essential oils are applied to their paws.

I have taken advice from Dr. Nancy Brandt, DVM and used the knowledge in my dog breeding business. She is a holistic vet located in Las Vegas, NV and uses Young Living essential oils in her practice. Most essential oils should be diluted with a base or carrier oil before applying to your pet. For dogs, the recommendation is 1 drop essential oil to 10 drops base/carrier oil and for cats, rabbits and ferrets, 1 drop essential oil to 25 drops of base/carrier oil. You may listen to Dr. Brandt 1/29/2009 lecture on the internet addressing 16 Young Living essential oils that a pet owner should have on hand.

In my opinion the best base or carrier oil is organic cold pressed olive oil, grapeseed oil or fractionated coconut oil. Avoid nut oils if your pet is allergic to nuts. I recommend using V-6 enhanced vegetable oil complex by Young Living as base/carrier oil. The ingredients of V-6 are Fractionated Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, and Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil. Cold pressed olive oil and grapeseed oil are other options to use as a base/carrier oil.

Oil and water do not mix; water causes the oil to irritate your pet's skin. If you pet has sensitivity to any essential oil, dilute the oil with base/carrier oil or add more base/carrier oil to where you applied the essential oil. If any essential oil gets into your pet's eyes rinse with base/carrier oil, never water.

I chose essential oils made by Young Living. They are therapeutic grade and processed correctly. They're organic and do not contain toxicants, like pesticides. Not all essential oils can be taken internally. Young Living essential oils are one of the few essential oils that can be taken safety internally. There are 42 species of frankincense but Young Living chooses the 2 species with the most therapeutic benefits not the cheapest to make and process. The oils are processed with low heat by steamed distillation or cold pressing. This makes more of the natural properties available. Some of the essential oil brands process their products with a higher heat and as a result their essential oils do not have all the properties plus may contain toxicants. They do cost less and are not as effective.

The essential oil Balsam fir (Idaho) is anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant (stops blood from clotting) and acts like cortisone. It is used for respiratory issues and pain. For breathing issues rub on the chest. For pain issues, rub on the source. I diffuse it in my kennel if I see or hear any signs of colds or coughing. You can combine 2-3 essential oils together and diffuse to get the desired results.

Eucalyptus Radiata can be used as a smelling salt and aids in opening up the lungs when an upper respiratory infection is present. Its medical properties are antibacterial, antiviral, expectorant and anti-inflammatory. As a smelling salt the bottle is held briefly under the nose. For breathing issues, rub on the chest. I use eucalyptus on my dogs' cloth collars and it works like a bug repellant. I spray eucalyptus on my base ball cap while fishing and the bugs leave me alone.

Frankincense can cross the blood/brain barrier and aid in increasing oxygen to the brain. Frankincense is used for infections and tumors, dissolves lumps & bumps. Frankincense is antibacterial, antiviral, expectorant and anti-inflammatory. It can be applied topically, diffused, or simply inhaled. I have applied frankincense to lumps on my pets and the size of the lump decreases quickly.

Helichysum is great for bruising or bleeding. I use it for when dew claws are removed or tail docking. It speeds up the healing process. This essential oil is not diluted but rubbed directly on the bare belly, be sure to avoid the sexual organs. Apply 1 drop per 1 inch of bare belly up the center of the pet's belly. Helichrysum medical properties are anticoagulant, anesthetic, antispasmodic, antiviral, liver detoxifier; chelates chemicals and toxins plus regenerates nerves. Choose Helichysum if rat poison is suspected. This will help control internal bleeding while you are traveling to your vet.

Lavender is the universal essential oil and can be used for just about anything. This essential oil is applied neat (not diluted). Lavender is great to heal burns including sunburns. Lavender has great calming effects. Here is a recipe that can be misted into the air: add 2 drops to 1 oz. of steamed distilled water put into a spray bottle, shake before each use. Its medical properties are antiseptic, antifungal, antitumoral, anticonvulsant, vasodilating, relaxant, anti-inflammatory, reduce blood fat/cholesterol, and combats excess sebum on skin. I use lavender to clear tear staining on my puppies while they are teething. Apply only once per day put one drop to your finger and rub it across the nose and under the eyes (avoid the eyes). I like to use it at night since lavender has calming properties.

Peppermint is wonderful for treating diarrhea and vomiting. Be sure to dilute with the base/carrier oil formula. Peppermint medical properties are anti-inflammatory, antitumoral, antiparasitic (worms), antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, gallbladder/digestive stimulant, and a pain-reliever and helps curbs appetite. I use peppermint diluted and rub on the gums or belly to stop diarrhea.

Pine works for respiratory issues and works even better when mixed with eucalyptus. This is a great combination to diffuse during the winter months and smells great. Or it can be rubbed on the chest between the front legs. Pine's medical properties are hormone-like, antidiabetic, cortisone-like, antiseptic and lymphatic stimulant.

Essential oil blends are a combination of several essential oils having a broader spectrum of beneficial medical properties. Di-Gize helps with alleviating diarrhea and vomiting. It works better than peppermint. Apply the oil to the bare belly and rubs it in a clockwise motion, the way the colon moves. Egyptian Gold aids the immune system and is used for open wounds (dog/cat fight). It is applied to the chest and between the shoulder blades on the back. Joy helps the heart and circuitry system. Apply to the chest and side of the ribs. GLF should be used if your pet gets into anything toxic like fertilizer or advid. Rub on the liver. The liver is located just below the ribs on the right-hand side. Melrose is great for chronic infections like abscesses (wounds) that are difficult to heal. Panaway is for dog bites, bruising, cuts and scrapes. Puricuration is used undiluted on bug bites. It purifies the air and kills the virus, Parvo. It balances electro energies. Use it on your pet's bedding as a diffuser. Mix 1 drop to 1 oz steam distilled water into a spray bottle. Shake before use and spray the room, bedding, and toys anything your pet touches to disinfect. I recommend this essential to my customers if they plan on boarding their pets to keep their pet's germ free. Thieves kills bacteria and can be used as a natural antibiotic. Thieves should be used for keeping your pet's teeth clean. This is a healthier option then putting your pet under at the vet's to clean its teeth. Apply a drop to your finger and rub on your pet's upper gums once a week or daily if you detect issues. Thieves is recommended not be used on cats due to their sensitivity to their liver. Valor is chiropractic in a bottle. It aliens the body by balancing energy centers (chakras). Apply to the spine. This is a wonderful essential oil blend for pets who lead active life styles like hunting or trials

Foot Health: Essential for Walking

Foot Health: Essential for Walking

Foot care is an essential routine activity that should be done by all individuals to achieve optimum wellness. Our feet contribute an important role in our activities of daily living which generally involves standing, walking and moving around. The lower body extremities especially the feet appear to support the entire weight of a person bringing them to be the most overused part of the body. To help prevent damage and promote foot care, here are seven tips to promote foot health.

Inspect and palpate your feet regularly. Keeping track with your feet will help you notice any changes or foot irregularities when it suddenly differs in foot colour, thickness, temperature, skin turgor and note for cracks. Also check for the capilliary refill of your toenails that will indicate adequate blood oxygenation. Any growth or change on the foot is not considered normal and should be consulted to a physician.

Wash your feet on a daily basis making sure to clean and wash in between the toes. Wet skin is very vulnerable which is prone to cracking and lesions since the skin become inelastic. Make sure you let your feet completely dry by using a towel to prevent skin from impairment.

Trim and cut your toenails. Be careful not to overly trim your toenails to prevent from skin damage and injury. For ladies and lasses who enjoy pedicures and nail art, make sure not to prolong the nail paint over a week. Use a mild nail polish remover to completely cleanse the nail polish. Prolonged paint will cause the nails to be brittle and may lead to certain foot problems.

Select the appropriate shoe and shoe size for your feet. When buying a new pair of shoes, consider and prioritize the comfort it will bring your feet and not after the shoe style. The best time for shoe fitting is during the day when the feet are at its largest.

As much as possible, avoid walking and running barefooted at your home. Walking barefooted may lead to an incident that may impair and aggravate the condition of your feet. It is best advised and wise to put on your slippers even at home to prevent any possible accident.

After a long stand, walk, run, a tiring and stressful day at work, lifting your legs against the wall will benefit your foot and legs venous return which promotes blood circulation. It is said that promoting venous return can aid in preventing formation of blood clots and plaques in the feet due prolonged standing, blood pooling and inadequate circulation.

Lastly, never disregard any foot or ankle pain even though you have a strong pain threshold and tolerance. Any pain connotes that there is an inflammation or any underlying cause within. It is better to consult your doctor or a podiatric physician to help diagnose and treat the pain.

For diagnosed type one or type two diabetes, caring for your feet plays a major role in maintaining your health. Foot lesions and wounds are the common cause of leg amputation for diabetic people. Make sure to routinely check and do foot care as recommended to prevent amputation from happening.

Without Health There is no Real Wealth

You need Optimum Nutrition to be healthy. Residual income streams will allow us to create wealth but it has to be stressed that balance is also an essential ingredient in your quest for success and wealth. You must allocate time for yourself (your health) and your family or the one's you love and care about. More and more successful people are coming to the realisation that, without health there is no real wealth and you need optimum nutrition to have optimum health.

It is advisable to take up a form of exercise to keep your mind and body positively active. A healthy body serves as a perfect vehicle to do well. Have you ever noticed how alive you feel after taking a brisk walk, an early morning jog or completing a fast pace workout in the gym? This type of exercise gets the blood flowing and demands deep breathing, which helps to remove toxins from the blood and push more oxygenated blood through your brain. You feel energised and ready to take on the world because your metabolism is in high gear - but you need optimum nutrition to sustain that energy.

I have been fortunate to discover the benefits of balancing life and making room for exercise, quiet time for reading/meditating, continuous learning and planning time for work so that I have a sense of balance. We all want to create enough reliable streams of residual income so we can achieve financial independence but it is also important to include a plan for maintaining good health and a balanced lifestyle. There are many ways to do this but I would like to share five basic rules that have worked for me over the last twenty five years.

1. Do not become a workaholic or a wealthpreneur freak in your quest for success, lest it damage your relationships with the ones you love and also your attempts to sincerely succeed in life.

2. Do not deviate from the path of righteousness or the Law of Nature. It is great fun indeed to witness success and wealth, and the joy that wells up is beyond belief. However, if happiness, joy and success all come at once at the expense of your health, then I am afraid it is all a terrible waste.

3. Believe in your own success. Wealthy individuals create their own career/destiny because they are true believers of their own ability to achieve success. You want to be healthy and live long enough to enjoy what you have created.

4. Maintain a positive attitude in everything you do. The habitual inclination of our thought patterns is ultimately the deciding factor, which determines our abilities, talents and personal characteristics. This valuable information lies in the art of cultivating the thought patterns that bring success. We are what we think we are.

5. Believe that you can accomplish anything through the power of thought. You must use the power of visualization and your imagination to allow yourself to have a clear picture of your success while achieving your earnest goal. It is true when Masters say that: Your Thoughts create the environment. Successful people learn to surround themselves with people and things that support their success.

In Part 4 of this article series I will expand further on what I have learnt about the power of maintaining a positive attitude and managing my thoughts to support my success goals. However, in Part One I want to share a few thoughts about how to use Optimum Nutrition to maintain good health while achieving wealth.

Support Peak Performance with Optimum Nutrition.

So often I have worked with people who are constantly complaining about being tired. How can you focus and produce your best work if you lack energy and enthusiasm for the task at hand. If you have ever been - tired of being tired, you need to take another look at what you are feeding your body. What we eat provides the fuel for our bodies and will determine the energy we have available to focus and vigorously produce the results we want each day. Get Genesis for a real energy boost. Many of us use the computer as a tool in building our online businesses and know how easy it is to spend 8-10 hours a day sitting. We need to have a vigorous exercise program to balance this inactivity and great nutrition to keep us energised. The following approach works wonderfully for me:

1. Begin the day with a quiet time for meditation and review of your plan of Action for the day.· Prepare a power drink and/or your energy nutrition with some fruit to put some instant fuel in the system. Visit my website and check out the Optimum Nutrition web page for some of the most powerful nutrition available today.
2. Workout for 30-60 minutes to get your body stimulated with some physical exercise. Do what you like best because this should be a lifestyle that we commit to. Some may like a jog, take a brisk walk, a yoga session, a swim in the ocean or a workout in your favourite gym.
3. Now you are ready for your first meal of the day and your energy booster (visit my web page "Your Health" and check out Symmetry's Ultra Vitality and Genesis). Most mornings I just eat seasonal fruits and my selection of nutritional supplements because this provides the quickest supply of energy to get me started. Most fruits digest in less than an hour while other food such as bread/serials will take over four hours to digest before they can supply you with any energy, so my first choice is fruits in the morning

Essential oils by Path to Perfect Health

Essential oils by Path to Perfect Health

It seems unfortunate that, while most of us already know the importance of relaxation and a balanced lifestyle, the reality we live in still tends to center around high pressure and high expectations.

It really isn't surprising that stress and stress management play such a dominant role in our modern lives.

Happily, there is news of pioneering work in the holistic science arena that has borne fruit of a unique range of therapeutic plants oils that can directly access the nervous system to help maintain a healthy, more sustainable equilibrium. This means that calming nerves becomes a wholesome experience that empowers the body to work and rest at maximum capacity.

The first thing to realise when you are looking at natural stress relief or natural remedies for anxiety is that there is nothing particularly healthful about the medical trend of merely treating the symptoms of surplus nervous energy. 100% pure essential oils take things in a completely different direction because they work directly with the body's natural processes of relaxation and calming nerves, to support the healthiest possible foundation for staying cool in the face of external pressures.

100% pure essential oils are produced only with extremely careful growing, production and extraction procedures. This is necessary because the end product then maintains the organic integrity of the plants medicinal essence which is perfect for assimilation into the body's own organic systems.

What this means is that the ancient practice of healing with medicinal plants suddenly has even greater potential for positive impact on the human body. It also means that instead of thinking in terms of stress and stress management, we can actually focus on a much healthier outcome by helping to develop our innate capacity for composure and calm.

So, when we have a blend of 100% pure essential oils that has been formulated by experts to help with tension and pressure, we have something quite distinct from the majority of natural remedies for anxiety or stress.

Not to mention the fact that pure blends are so versatile that they can be adapted to suit any situation: for pulse points: in the bath: in a massage blend; or, because aroma offers a direct path to the brain's response system, we are able to diffuse it into a room to help create a more mellow, relaxing environment.

Indeed, stress and stress management could quite possibly be taken off the agenda completely if you go about calming nerves with 100% pure essential oils and a bit of lateral thinking... because a specific formulation can also be created to aid the natural processes of quieting the mind and relaxing the body to that profound level which allows deep restorative sleep to replenish energy and stamina.

And how about a deliciously nurturing massage blend that incorporates 100% essential oils as a wonderfully appealing natural therapy for calming nerves? It certainly has a lot more going for it than the standard herbal tea that most people associate with natural remedies for anxiety and stress.

Add to that the fact that 100% pure essential oils are the product of organic and green practices and it becomes clear that this is the right place to start when you're looking for peace of mind

Oily skin is the result of over active sebaceous glands. A substance called sebum is secreted by these glands, normally it is a healthy natural lubricant for the skin but when it is secreted in excess it leads to oily skin. It makes the skin becomes shiny, thick and dull. Oily skin has coarse pores, pimples and other face blemishes. Note that oily skin is not necessarily bad as this skin is less prone to wrinkling and other aging signs and the oil helps to keep needed moisture locked in the outermost layer of the skin. Oily skin can also be caused by other things such as pregnancy, birth control pills, high or imbalanced hormone levels and changes, diets, make-up we use, and terribly hot weather and so on. Oily skin is common in teenagers because of hormonal shifts of adolescence but it can also occur at any age however oily skin has a great advantage of aging slowly than other skin types. Oily skin can be cared for in so many ways: get a good face cleanser or soap not harsh or heavy ones, use lightly medicated soaps, and don't use cleansers that contain alcohol or artificial additives, also try antibacterial cleaning lotions and always apply a natural oil free moisturizer to keep skin soft. The oily skin also needs special cleansing day and night with plenty of warm water and mild soap to prevent clogged pores, harsh products strips the skin from oils and promotes dryness and this can cause skin to start shrinking or wrinkling. Always make sure you moisturize skin after cleansing with oil free moisturizers to maintain a supple and shine free complexion.

A healthy eating habit is also recommended if you have oily skin, for example, too much sugar, liquids and salt are not good but foods rich in protein like roasted duck, meat or chicken, salmon, tuna salad, bacon, cheeseburger, milk fat, lamb and so on are good choices for healthy eating. Also take in lots of leafy green vegetables like spinach, cabbage and fresh fruits or fresh natural fruit juices, vitamins, iron supplement and other substances as they bring your blood level up to tally with your system.
