Newsletter Feb. 2008

From the Desk of Donna Roth 250 764 2852 kdroth@shaw.ca February 2008

Recently a Dr. Thiel article from our local newspaper grabbed my attention. It’s a real heart wrenching story. A male in his early 60’s, a self made millionaire several times over, with homes in different countries, with a wife and wonderful children has recently been diagnosed with a metastatic cancer. He has been given less than a year to live and here is his comment, “No matter how much money I have, it is futile if I do not have my life, my health and my wife.” Dr. Thiel’s response “I no longer think complementary or alternative care is the right term. I would deem it a necessary care. “And I, Donna Roth, deem alternative care to be a primary care. There is no substitute for good health and it comes with a degree of self management and responsibility. This is where Nature Sunshine education comes in. We empower you with the information necessary to take the responsibility of your health into your own hands. As Dr. Thiel says “ It makes much more sense to stay healthy than it does to become ill and try to recoup our health from a sickly state.” But the majority of us simply do not know how to stay healthy. We do not know what health means and what it takes to be healthy. Health management is not discussed or taught in any educational institution in our Canadian society and the consequences are obvious when such statistics are presented:
1 out of 2 men and 1 in 3 women are diagnosed with cancer.
1 in 10 kids suffer from asthma in Canada.
1 in 12 women die from heart disease in BC.

It is time to stand up for our health. It is time to make health our utmost priority. It is time to take action. This is our life! We need to protect it! Here is the action we all need to take:

1) Partake only of foods that are full of energy, foods that Mother Earth provides for us; hormone free meats, eggs, dairy; organic fruits and vegetables; organic nuts and seeds (soaked is best.) Eliminate sugar, coffee, wheat and junk food. Drink water.

2) Because our present day agricultural practices have depleted our soils so significantly it is extremely important to incorporate Nature Sunshine Super Foods into your daily regimen:
Nature’s Gold; highly dense nutrition with 4000 metabolic enzymes, amino acids, minerals, fatty acids, fibre and antioxidants. –
Flax Hull Lignans; 1 scoop is equivalent to 5 pounds of flax seed. Twenty years of research has shown lignans to prevent lung, colon, breast, prostate and hormone cancers.
Green Zone; 40-30-30 principle: 40%- carbohydrates, 30%-protein, 30%- fatty acids. The nutritious land and sea based herbs, minerals amino acids, fatty acids, bioflavonoid.
Chlorophyll; It is the sun’s energy harnessed in a bottle. The chlorophyll molecule is chemically similar to human blood except that its central atom is magnesium instead of iron.
SynerProtein Powder; A complete meal to build lean muscle and increase metabolism.
TNT Powder; An explosive vitamin/ mineral/ fibre drink. It is also available in a TNT protein bar for those on the run.
Essential Liquid Minerals or Chinese Mineral Chi Tonic; An adrenal energizing tonic to “light up “ and balance the body’s energy systems.

3) Add Nature Sunshine supplements including-
Super Trio: a 30 day supply of complete supplements program that includes vitamin/mineral tablet, Super Omega 3 capsules of anchovy, mackerel, sardine oil with 760 mg EPA 380 mg DHA.—Super NT-OX; Green tea, mangosteen pericarp, Tuercetin fruit, Tumeric, Japanese knot weed, apple skin and fruit, acai berry extract and selenium.

4) Twice a year do an intestinal cleanse of your choice-
Tiao He Pak; 10 day herbal cleanse that targets the intestinal, and digestive system. Para Pak; 10 day herbal program to help get rid of parasites;
Citrus Clean Start; 14 day colon cleanse with Psyllium fibre and Bentonite to completely draw out toxins and mucoid waste materials from the intestinal walls.-
Bod-e-Klenz; a 30 day weight loss cleansing/building program of herbs, vitamins and minerals. It stimulates the body’s digestive and eliminative systems and contains herbs to build the bowel, liver and glandular systems.

5) Health becomes enhanced if you stop putting chemical substances on your skin and using chemical cleaning products in your home. That is where Nature Sunshine chemical free skin care products will help you.They are formulated from vitamin and botanical extracts with powerful antioxidant protection and nutrient replenishment to your skin. These include :
Body Wash; Hand and Body Lotion ;
Shampoo and Conditioner;

Crystal Clear Deodorant

For a complete individualized health program I recommend that you do a Health Analysis which is available at www.naturessunshine.ca. At this point you will require some coaching and that is where Donna Roth comes into the picture. kdroth@shaw.ca

I know that money is a concern for all of us. But recently I spoke to Kathy who said”My herbal bill is part of my grocery bill. Herbs and Super Foods are a priority in my life and my family’s lives. Super Foods and supplements need to be priority items in our grocery budgets.

Now here is the last statement I wish to make before I end this newsletter. According to Dr. Thiel, it is estimated that over $7.8 billion was spent in the year 2005-2006 on complementary and alternative medicine and that number is fast climbing. This is evidence that most Canadians are choosing to pay for herbal supplements out of their own personal expenses. I feel we are on a verge of a major herbal explosion here and I welcome those of you out there who wish to join us in the Nature Sunshine movement. We offer excellent educational training and a business opportunity for you to make an excellent income.
