Customer Review: More bang for the buck…
I prefer this product in the single serving packets. Why? I know each serving is fresh and potent each and every time. I am allergic to many vitamins on the market. So, I needed to switch to something non-vitamin like. Let me tell you, I have not had any reactions using this product and feel better. Yes, even sick less often or at least less severe. Good-bye vitamins!

Customer Review: the newest edition of the healing system that saved my life!
When I was given this book for the first time, about 8 years ago when my health was at an all-time low that had been slowly declining for years. I was under 30 and had a list of chronic ailments longer than any senior citizen I knew; terrible heartburn every day all the time, gas, bloating, painful bowel movements (terribly painful), chronic vaginitis, chronic acute asthma so bad I was on 3 inhalers, pills, steroids AND I was still in the ER about once per month, weight gain, fatigue, major irritability and mood swings, depression, horrible lower back issues that always coincided with asthma flare ups (which of course, MDs told me were unrelated!), allergies to everything…I was a mess but it crept up so slowly over time I didn’t even “get” how ridiculous it was. It seemed that everyone around me had similar issues and complaints (except maybe for the asthma) so I accepted it like the sleepwalking masses. I’d started to wake up and tried things like the Zone and Blood type diets. They were ok and I’d see some improvements but not anywhere near enough, no matter how disciplined I was. But when I went to see a chiropractor ( a really good one) who also practiced other wonderful forms of holistic healing, she handed me an older edition of this book and said that ALL of my issues were related to one underlying cause; Candidiasis. I’d never heard of it but I was thrilled to see her react so matter of factly to my list of ailments and to be so confident about healing them, naturally. She said to take it home, read it, don’t freak out if it seems overwhelming (which it did at first), then put it down and forget about it for a few days (letting the information filter into the subconscious) and then pick it up and reread it again. The second time I read it, everything clicked. It didn’t seem intimidating and she and I even worked together to sort of mold it to my personal needs. We added the use of some wonderful supplements since I was so toxic; Paragone and Parazyme by Renew Life, and daily mega-doses of Metagenics probiotics (and later on, Dr. Ohhira’s). Luckily, the principles of the “diet” (which became a lifestyle for me) all invovled things I had experiment with before; acid/alkaline, yin/yang, blood type (taken with a grain of salt since it doesn’t all work on my body), food combining…all things I had some knowledge of and that tend to overlap, really. A truly alkaline meal is usually properly food combined as it is (unless you’re eating only protein, which is unbalanced), for example. So even though it was right around Christmas and my chiro said to wait until after, I was ready to heal! I jumped in, figured out a handful of recipes and easy meals on the plan and never looked back. The first week was tough; I felt like I had the flu (sneexing, achey, tired, sore throat), but that’s just a reaction to the toxic die off so I pushed on, knowing it was actually a good sign. Cleansing isn’t always uncomfortable, but for someone as toxic as I was, I got off easy. Within 2 weeks, I felt better than I could remember and that was the tip of the iceberg. After a few months, I was a new woman; happy, energetic, excited, confident. After 6 months my entire life changed, on every level, in the most positive ways. Becoming truly healthy, in a way I never even knew was possible, changed my emotional and spiritual state as well. And I felt empowered because now I had the knowledge of how to allow my beautiful body to heal herself, which she had been trying to do all along. BED is all about giving your body exactly what it needs and then getting the hell out of its way. ALL of my issues were gone after 6 months of doing it strictly. I hadn’t been that healthy or radiant in my entire life. I found that I could go out and treat myself to something here and there without any ill effect, but I honestly didn’t crave it much after the excess beasties were gone. A healthy body doesn’t crave crap. And I then spent the next few years living on a modofied version; I LIKED the food! Millet with fresh carrots, ginger and dill….YUM! Broiled salmon with fresh spinach sauteed in coconut oil, garlic and fresh herbs…YUM! Quinoa flakes with stevia, cinnamon and nutmeg…YUM! Homemade ginger ale sweetened with stevia…awesome. You just find what you like, play with it, create about 10 dishes that are quick, easy and on the plan and you’re set. Yes, it takes some planning, shopping and prep but skipping Starbuck’s and fast food actually frees up a lot of time and money. And after the initial cleansing phase, you’ll have more energy than you’ll know what to do with and making some veggies or salads won’t seem like a hardship. I used to coach people through this process when I went to work for that wonderful chiropractor. It’s a challenge and a learning experience, but the return is the gift of REAL LIFE! Radiance, vitality, energy, clarity, joy, beauty. Oh yeah, and I lost 40 pounds I’d wished I could lose all my life, and it wasn’t even my focus anymore! It was a nice side effect. So please, if you want some honest to G-d positive change in your life, true natural healing and to be empowered to control your own health and well being without drugs, find this book, anyway you can. (BTW, the cultured veggies are actually yummy and can be bought fresh at Whole Foods, the meals are really wonderful and satisfying and the rewards are priceless.) Nothing short of life changing…but the question is, are you ready? Are you ready to put yourself and your well being first?
Cholesterol seen tied to heart disease, not stroke

Sicko
Following on the heels of his Palm d’Or winning Fahrenheit 9/11 and his Oscar winning film Bowling for Columbine, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Moore’s new documentary sets out to investigate the American healthcare system. Sticking to his tried-and-true on
Customer Review: House Resolution 676 Would Create Universal Health Care in US
SICKO is an entertaining and eye opening documentary that maintains a sense of dry humor about our corrupt health care system. We already pay for universal care here but don’t receive it because over 30% of the health care dollar is diverted to things not related to treating people.
HR 676 in the House of Representatives would create universal health care here and needs more cosponsors. In California, there is SB 840 which would do the same in California.
The leading cause of bankruptcies and foreclosures now is because people can’t afford to pay their doctor’s bills. We have a system now in which insurance agents are more powerful than doctors and this needs to change.
Customer Review: And I thought I would hate it
Some disclosure, I do not like the way that Michael Moore makes his “documentaries” and I honestly do not feel they should be in that category. For he does make sure that everything is shown to support his preconceived idea. You know that once he starts he is going to be supporting his personal view. And that is seen in this film. I know how bad Cuba’s health system is for the normal person and this film does not come close to showing it. We only get to see where the elite of Cuba go for healthcare. And we do not get to see those who wait trying to get specialist care in the “free” systems like France. It would be nice to see the good and bad of each system.
Now with all that I have to say that even though his scenes are “cherry-picked”, everything that Mr. Moore shows in his film about our Insurance system is quite accurate. In the richest country in the world with the best doctors and most advanced technology we have too many people going without required care. And his includes both medical procedures and prescriptions. I have seen a five year paperwork trail of someone insured by one of the largest health insurance companies in the U.S.A., with full health coverage, that was denied coverage for a piece of durable equipment that was required. This person could not wait for insurance so the equipment was purchased and claim filed, of course the claim was denied. After the five years of appeals, including involvement by his Senator and the U.S Department of Health, the piece of equipment was approved. But guess what? A letter was sent saying they, the insurance company, would not pay for the durable equipment bought because it was the “wrong” brand!
Most of our medical practitioners and all prescription companies have no compassion. All that matters is the bottom line, greed. We may have very good quality medical care, if you can get it that is. Having insurance is only for those who really do not need it. And even if you do have great insurance, it does not mean you are covered at all. So obviously the United States is in need of healthcare reform. And I do hope that everyone sees this film with an open mind. I know it shows only extremes, but what someone should realize that in the United States, not one citizen should have to go without required prescriptions or medical care regardless of its cost. And no one should have to choose between his or her life and their home.
We all know nothing is free, a free system would mean increase taxes. But let us see what those taxes would be and put it on a ballot so that the people can vote on the systems they want. The taxes might not be that much higher overall. Or perhaps the single payer system. No matter what anyone thinks of Michael Moore, hopefully this fill will increase the discourse on the U.S.A.’s healthcare system. This is the best film he has produced yet.
