Research shows that free radical damage and inflammation are the primary causes. Inflammation is the body’s response to any kind of tissue damage. When tissues are initially damaged, there is a release of histamine which is followed by other chemical mediators. These dilate capillary pores and initiate inflammation by allowing fluid to enter tissue space and create swelling. In Chronic Inflammation, the body is never able to heal itself. This happens when there is a lack of nutrients, (which are mainly found in plants), chronic stress, environmental toxins and poor diet. Natural anti-inflammatory remedies that reduce chronic inflammation and promote healing are CoQ10, fresh enzyme spray and Omega-3.

It is not what you eat that counts, it's what you assimilate that your body can use that makes the difference. We absorb mainly in the small intestine, through the small villi which compose the intestinal walls. The absorptive function of these villi may be hampered by certain diets. Some persons may also have an inherent weakness in this area which does not allow them to utilize their foods as well as others. A proper diet is the best way to aid in assimilation. Also adequate rest is needed as a fatigued system cannot absorb well. On the iridology chart the villi are the first ring next to the pupil. If the ring next to the pupil is a dark redish brown colon then the assimilation is poor. The ring around that is the stomach area. If the ring in the center of the iris is an orangish color like in the iris above the stomach is underacid. If the stomach ring is white then the stomach is overacid. Herbs such as Alfalfa, Peppermint, Papaya and Ginger are also beneficial. Should the villi become unable to absorb nutrients properly, cleansing may be encouraged using the herb Comfrey and the digestive aid Pepsin as well as a bulk former such as Psyllium Hulls along with Cascara Sagrada.

Because infertility is on the rise it's important to know about your own personal fertility. In late 2012 Australia conducted a survey of 200 women undergoing infertility treatments. Only 26 of them knew their own fertility window and preserving their fertility. I think there is a rising alarm for infertility because of our eating habits and what's in our food. But I also think that there is a need for women and couples to know how fertility works and when they don't that's when they run into trouble conceiving. Many believe that having sex for a year will work, or six months, even though it takes more than just sex. A pH balance that is too acidic or alkaline can easily immobilize sperm just because of a change in diet, or missing the ovulation window completely It's so much more than just sex. It's knowledge and it's taking control over your own fertility. Amanda Bear's Achievements and Contact Information:
![]() If you are on allergy medicine, sinus medicine, asthma inhalers and want to learn how to heal your body through diet and herbs, there is a way. Remember that your body's sole purpose is to survive and to heal. You can do that by changing your diet and by using herbs. Redox Signaling Molecules along with Nature's Sunshine herbs and dietary changes are the very best way to heal quickly. Respiration provides oxygen to the bloodstream. All body cells need oxygen to live and function properly. Without oxygen, body cells start dying within minutes. Common respiratory concerns include runny nose, sneezing, allergies, post-nasal drip, coughs, colds, bronchitis, sinusitis, pneumonia and asthma. Associated problems can include earaches, sore throats, swollen lymph nodes and tonsillitis. Signs of chronic respiratory weakness include wheezing, shortness of breath and emphysema. Examining the Respiratory System The respiratory system’s primary function is to provide oxygen to the bloodstream. Once in the blood, oxygen travels through the circulatory system to all the cells of the body. The body cells need oxygen to create energy. When air enters the body through the nose or mouth, it travels down the trachea or windpipe and into the bronchi. The bronchi branch into smaller tubes called bronchioles, which lead to alveoli. Alveoli are tiny air sacs clustered around the ends of the smallest bronchioles. These air sacs are surrounded by tiny, thin-walled blood vessels called capillaries. Through these thin walls, carbon dioxide leaves the body and oxygen enters it. The lungs filter the air we breathe and only allow microscopic particles to actually reach the alveoli. The body also uses a mucous membrane to protect the airways and prevent dust particles and other irritants from being absorbed. Because of the lungs’ ability to absorb substances into the bloodstream, some medications are administered this way. For example, many asthma sufferers use an inhaler that allows them to breathe medicine. Essential oils, when inhaled, are also absorbed into the blood via the lungs. Although we think of the lungs as doing all of the respiratory work, the sinuses and trachea also play critical roles in this system. The sinuses filter and humidify the air we breathe. They also regulate the temperature of incoming air. The trachea, bronchi and bronchioles are lined with cilia – tiny hairlike structures that pulsate continuously, pushing mucus and foreign particles up toward the pharynx so they can be swallowed, broken down and eliminated. The bronchi and bronchioles are surrounded by smooth muscle. In some people these muscle spasms make breathing very difficult. This condition is known as asthma, and it affects millions of Americans, often limiting their activities. Doctors at Tel Aviv University in Israel found that 45 percent of asthmatics who took a megadose of vitamin C (2,000 mg) before exercising were able to do so without coughing, sneezing and experiencing shortness of breath. Another 10 percent of participants also experienced benefits, though they were less significant. You can take steps to promote respiratory health. Practice good hygiene (wash your hands frequently), don’t smoke and avoid second-hand smoke, get plenty of sleep, exercise regularly, practice deep breathing, eat a balanced diet, be wary of air pollution and reduce the amount of stress in your life. Many supplements also promote respiratory health. Two key herbs for this system are mullein and lobelia. Mullein, a mucilant, is very soothing to the respiratory tract. It has expectorant properties (promotes the elimination of mucus through the mouth) and helps heal inflammation of breathing passageways. Lobelia acts as an antispasmodic on smooth muscles, helping the bronchi to relax. It also has nervine and expectorant properties. Did You Know?

![]() My name is Mara Bramante. I live in Italy. I would like to thank both Brenda and Chris for all the assistance they gave me before and after receiving my SD8004 Super Digital Iridology Camera. The camera takes such clear precise pictures, and above all, it is really easy to use. I have recommended the same SD8004 to 3 Italian colleagues, and I am proud to say that they are just as satisfied as I am.
