THE INTELLIGENT NEW YEAR'S DETOX

2011-01-03T09:14:00.000-08:00

On January 1st everyone feels absolutely overloaded on all levels and thoroughly sluggish. The Christmas excesses are taking their toll and the waistline is stretching. At this point some people decide to take drastic measures like cutting calories considerably, fasting, juicing etc. This actually doesn’t work. In fact it does the opposite. During the Christmas period, which for some people starts at the beginning of December with the round of office parties etc, the daily calorie intake can quadruple. In addition foods, like Christmas pudding, mince pies, chocolates, alcohol etc are acid forming. To loose weight your body needs to be more alkaline. Whilst you have been ingesting large quantities of calories your metabolism has had to be working hard to process all this. If you cut your calorie intake drastically then your body decides to go into starvation mode and stores the calories from the reduced amount of food you eat as fat – wonderful. Equally we are at the time of the year – deep mid-winter – when our metabolism is sluggish as well.
So what is the intelligent answer? What is required for the body to become more alkaline; the elimination pathways of the body to be supported and strengthened, and the metabolism to work better? All these requirements are addressed in the Bioligo trace element complex Minsalor - zinc-nickle-cobalt-sulphur-iodine-magnesium-potassium-manganese. This trace element complex enables the efficient functioning of the liver, pancreas, gall bladder, kidneys, thyroid and adrenals – all the organs necessary for the efficient assimilation of our nutrients and healthy functioning of our metabolism. If there are blockages in the cells of these organs because of unhealthy diet and lifestyle then the organs cannot work efficiently. The unique Bioligo trace element complexes remove these blockages and enable the cells to function correctly. Without trace elements in their correct form, cells cannot work correctly, nor can they assimilate nutrients. It doesn’t matter what remedies, supplements or vitamins that you take, if the catalytic trace elements are not present then they cannot be assimilated into the cells.
This complex coupled with a regular balanced diet with lots of vegetables, protein, limited carbohydrates, herbal teas and water – no sugar, alcohol and caffeine will help you to regain your waistline, improve your metabolism and immune system as well as increasing energy levels

DETOXING DEMYSTIFIED

Newspapers and magazines devote a great deal of column inches to the benefits and different types of detox regimes. Equally in recent years, there have been just as many column inches devoted to comment from medical professional who claim that the body needs no assistance in removing toxins.

Could they both be right? Yes, the body is perfectly designed to remove that which is not required - that's if the elimination organs are working efficiently. In addition the body's function is affected by the change in the length of daylight. The Circadian rhythm is an internal clock that plays a critical role in sleeping patterns. When the days shorten or lengthen, then the internal clock changes. This is done by the secretion of Melatonin. Not only does this affect our sleeping patterns but also affects other hormonal responses in our body.

Historically, our European counterparts undertake 'drainage' every spring and autumn as they recognise that the change in seasons requires an adjustment to diet and lifestyle. Drainage covers a range of dietary measures from just drinking more water, eating more vegetables, eating less sugar and starch, to taking regular seaweed treatments.

So what is really going on. It would appear that the body does undergo a change with the seasons - more readily seen in the coats of animals - but we need to work with our body and not make it harder to do its job. If you undertake a rigid diet which excludes vital nutrients, then your body is going to battle to get you through the day. If you take herbal 'potions' to eliminate toxins then you are possibly overloading your liver and kidneys to a point whereby they become overloaded and can't do their job efficiently. This means all the 'toxins' go straight back into the blood stream.

The Institute of Oligotherapy therefore suggests that, yes you must acknowledge that your body is adjusting to the change in seasons, but it needs measures which assist and support, not measures which totally overload. So, while we are adjusting to this our endocrine system - hormones - needs support as do our liver, pancreas and kidneys. Laboratoire Bioligo have produced an excellent trace element complex which addresses all these areas. This complex - No. 16 - coupled with a sensible eating plan should leave you feeling well able to embrace the earlier mornings and, hopefully, warmer days.

The Bioligo complexes can never override, overload, or put out of balance any system of the body and is totally safe to use at any age.

SWINE FLU

THE CONFUSION ABOUT SWINE FLU

Swine flu is a virus. Whether you will contract Swine flu will depend on two things: if you are exposed to the virus and if your immunity is low enough to ‘invite the illness in’

This criteria is the same for all flu’s. But, the unknown factor is the efficiency of the individual’s immunity.

So there are two routes: vaccination/tamiflu or a natural approach.
There is still controversy over the vaccination and or tamiflu in terms of side effects but, equally, natural remedies can also be unhelpful. For example if your immune system is quite low and you take a herb which is designed to stimulate or boost your immune system then in the short term you get a boost but in the long term it depletes the immune system even more.

It is therefore vital, when using natural remedies to identify the level of the immune system that you are addressing.

Oligotherapy identifies the level of the immune system and uses trace element complexes with their unique production process that only targets the cells of the body which need them. A totally safe and effective way to rebuild and maintain your immune system which is totally safe for children and the aged. A perfect preventative measure for all winter viruses would be to take one dose of Sirop du Pere Michel once per day. Creating a strong immune system requires many factors, good nutrition, lifestyle, etc but the cells of the body cannot function without catalytic trace elements.
