Vitamin Supplements

Back in the 1930s, the U.S. Government released a report stating that the soil in this country was sadly depleted of the minerals that were needed in order to grow nutritious fruits and vegetables.

This was over 70 years ago - 70 years ago!

What does that mean to you in your quest to eat good healthy food with lots of vitamins and minerals!?

It means that maybe your entire life has been spent eating food grown in soil that could not produce food that will help you stay healthy. Now, even if more recently, you've realized the benefits of organically grown fruits and vegetables and have switched to them, how many of your formative years were spent eating the other kind? Probably all of them.

Did you realize that?

2/3 of them were going down the drain - sometimes maybe more - depending on the quality of the vitamin supplement. And here you are just trying to keep yourself healthy!

Now why is that?

Well, there are a couple of reasons that your daily vitamin supplements weren't really getting into your body the way you wanted them to. First of all, there’s WATER.

Do you drink 8-10 8 oz glasses of pure water a day?

Do you even drink that much water in a week?

And, are you drinking soda, coffee, black tea and carbonated water instead? These drinks not only limit the ability of the body, at the cellular level, to absorb vitamin supplements and nutrients into the cells and to release toxins which build up inside the cells; they actively destroy the cells. That's no way to stay healthy.

When cells are treated like this, they start to act like the desert in the middle of a summer without rain. They become unable to absorb any of the vitamin supplements you give them. You know how the water just runs off when it rains after the soil gets really dry? It can't be absorbed because the ground is so dry. Your cells can get like that - unable to absorb anything at all and that's why your vitamin supplements and other nutrient aren't getting into your cells.

This is a pretty bleak picture, isn't it?

Well, let's make it a little bleaker. How's your immune system?

Did it start out in a weakened condition because you weren't breast fed as a baby? The colostrum in mother’s milk is what helps grow a strong immune system and let's you get healthy from the start of your life. Assuming, of course, mother had enough colostrum in her body to give some to you. If she didn’t, then you didn’t get it even if you were breast-fed. So even as a baby, maybe you couldn't even get a healthy start.

Has your immune system been weakened by repeated use of antibiotics?

And have those same antibiotics ruined all the good flora in your colon so that you can't absorb your vitamin supplements and your food and eliminate your waste material? And since the food many of us eat today is completely lacking in enzymes and can't be broken down and used by the body, it sits undigested and putrefying in the bowels releasing toxins into the body. (Sorry. I know it’s disgusting but that’s what happens. See the previous chapter on detoxification.) And we haven't even talked about environmental and personal stressors on our bodies - work, bills, exhaust fumes, fluorescent lights, computers, etc ,etc, etc.

Are you depressed yet?

Do you feel that you may as well crawl into your grave and pull the dirt in behind you?

Don’t despair. There are lots of things you can do to get yourself healthy again - or maybe for the first time in your life.

And what are they?

You can start using good organic whole food vitamin supplements which can be easily and completely absorbed and used by your body as you work toward getting healthy.

So, first of all, let's talk about this issue of absorption. No matter what you eat or what vitamin supplements you take, if your body can't use it, you might as will not eat it. Many people say that you are what you eat. But that’s not true. You are what your cells can absorb and use.

So how do you get your cells to absorb your food and your vitamin supplements?

By seeing to it that your cell walls are permeable and that nutrients and vitamin supplements can get into your cells and that toxins can get out.

There is a remarkable product called HydraCell. HydraCe is what's known as liquid microclusters. Microclusters are little tiny clusters of colloidal minerals. Each microcluster is 5 nanometers in diameter. That means that you could line up almost 2000 of them on each one of your red blood cells.

Now, Hydracel isn't exactly a vitamin supplement but it does help you absorb the vitamin supplements you are taking.

Microcluster technology is what makes good vitamin supplements even better.

What HydraCel does for your body in the process of helping it absorb nutrients from your food and vitamin supplements is to lower the surface tension of water - it makes water wetter. And what this means to you is that the water you drink and the vitamin supplements you take are now available to your cells.

Some people say that when they start to use Hydracel in their water they begin to feel like they are breathing extra oxygen after about 2 or 3 days. What’s actually happening is that since water which contains oxygen is now getting into their cells it’s making oxygen more available to the cells. And they can actually feel it.

So the use of HydraCel in all the water you drink is one of the keys to your cells’ ability to absorb nutrients from food and vitamin supplements and to detoxify themselves. It's easy to get some for yourself.

Now, Dr. Patrick Flanagan, the inventor of Hydracel, couldn't let it stop there. During the time he was doing his research, he discovered that there was a tremendous store of ionized hydrogen, or H minus (H-), in the water. What he realized is that this had to also play a part his research.

A hydrogen ion or H- is an atom of hydrogen with an extra electron attached to it. This gives the hydrogen a negative charge. I know you’re familiar with the feeling you get right before a thunderstorm when everything just seems more alive. Well, it is more alive - and so are you - during those times. Your energy is literally dancing because the air is charged with hydrogen ions.

Now, again, why is this important to you?

Well, hydrogen is the fuel of life. Hydrogen makes up 90% of the known universe. Everything you eat - including your organic whole food vitamin supplements - is eventually broken down to hydrogen. Then hydrogen is burned by oxygen to create the energy that keeps you going. So, you can see that if your body had more hydrogen for the oxygen to burn, then there would be more energy for your body to use.

It is all in your hands, right now. All you have to do is act to get some Microhydrin for yourself.

What I've shared with you so far lays the groundwork for your understanding of why microclustered nutritional products are the best on the market and why you need them. It's all in the delivery system and the antioxidant powder that makes use of it.

Microhydrin and the Microcluster technology are far superior to any other nutritional technology on the planet today.

There’s a whole series of products which have been microclustered. First, there is MSM with Microhydrin. MSM stands for methylsulfonylmethane and there is nothing new about it. It’s organic sulfur. It should be the third most plentiful element in your body. You get it from your food. You need it in order to have good skin, sound bones, good connective tissue and healthy, non-arthritic joints. It makes your fingernails and hair strong. It’s present in good amounts in all raw, organic fruits, vegetables and meats.

However, the minute food reaches a temperature of 118 degrees, the sulfur is gone.

And you know how you eat.

How much of your food is organic - much less raw?

Hardly any.

And how much of your food never reaches a temperature of 118 degrees?

Hardly any.

So, isn't it obvious?

The sulfur is gone from your food. Your body doesn’t manufacture it.

Where do you get it?

You don't.

And you suffer because of it. Your hair is dull and limp. Your nails are soft or brittle. You get skin diseases such as psoriasis and eczema. Your joints ache. Maybe you even get arthritis. MSM with Microhydrin and Vitamin C can help all these things. The Microhydrin helps the body use the MSM fully 3 times better than MSM without Microhydrin. You can get some for yourself by clicking here. Then there's Spirulina. Spirulina is a very simple plant food found in many places around the planet. You want spirulina which has been grown in a controlled environment safe from contaminants in ground water. The one I like is grown in pools on the Big Island in Hawaii in a combination of fresh water and sea water. It’s monitored many times daily to be sure that it maintains its purity.

Spirulina is a source of the complete spectrum of B Vitamins. It’s the only plant based source of B-12, so it’s extremely important for vegetarians to include spirulina in their diet.

It’s also a source of plant based protein. It might be interesting for you to learn that only about 45% of the protein in meat can be used by the body. About 98% of the protein in spirulina is usable. People have been known to live for 40 days or longer on nothing but water and spirulina and they are able to maintain active, normal lives while doing it.

Spirulina delivers micro-nutrition to your cells, especially if it’s microclustered. Get some by clicking here.

Now, let’s talk a little about enzymes and your digestion. If you remember, earlier I spoke about the lack of enzymes in the food you eat. Well, just in case you are wondering what enzymes are and why they are important, here’s the story.

Enzymes are the little guys that help with the process of digestion. They’re made up of proteins whose job is to change certain substances in your body into other substances that your body needs. Here’s an example of how they work.

Think about getting grease on your clothes or your hands. If you just try to wash it off with water, nothing happens. The water just slides around on it because the grease isn’t water soluble. But if you use a cleanser with enzymes in it, the grease just seems to break up into little globules and wash away. It’s been changed into something else that’s now water soluble.

That’s kind of how enzymes work during the process of digestion. They break food down so that it can be used by the body.

If the small intestine gets a piece of poorly chewed and undigested carrot, it doesn’t know what to do with it. But if that same piece of carrot has been digested, then the body can extract the Vitamin C and Beta Carotene from it.

Well, since enzymes are destroyed at a temperature of 128 degrees, you can be sure that most of the food you eat, has no living enzymes in it.

How does food get digested then?

One of two things happens: either enzymes are pulled from other body functions to do the work of digestion or your food goes undigested into your digestive system. If enzymes are pulled from other sources, then the functions those enzymes were supposed to perform don’t get done - and that's no way to get healthy. If the food simply doesn’t get digested, then it sits and rots in your small intestines and your colon. And then the toxins produced in that rotting process are released into your body giving your already over-stressed body something more to deal with. And that's certainly no way to get healthy.

There are some really effective digestive enzyme products. A good one will contain a full spectrum of the digestive enzymes as well as multiple probiotics to help create a flourishing environment in the colon; for example RBC Life Science's Digestion Formula.

You know, you hear a lot of talk about Omega 3 fatty acids as part of the get healthy process. DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid and is the building block of human brain and retinal tissue. It is essential for your brain and eye development and for mental and visual function.

Mother’s placental tissue and breast milk are sources of DHA, but again, were you breast-fed? And besides that, even if you were, if your mother was lacking in DHA, then her placental tissue and her milk would have been lacking also.

Fish is a good source of DHA but fish obtain their DHA from the micro-algae that they eat from polluted water. One of the best sources of DHA on the market has been obtained from these micro-algae grown under tightly controlled food manufacturing conditions.

Why is it so important for us to have this vitamin supplement? Well, there are many studies which show that low levels of DHA can be correlated with the presence of ADD/ADHD in children and Alzheimer’s disease in older adults. It is also tremendously important for pregnant and nursing women to take enough DHA to pass this vitamin supplement on to their babies. Now, DHA, all by itself will probably not be the total solution to ADD/ADHD and Alzheimer’s but it is an incredibly important part and must not be overlooked. Here is some DHA from a totally vegetarian source.

I could go on for a long time here, but I'll stop now.

The vitamin supplements I’ve mentioned here are the ones which will be of incredible help to you. Of course, if you have special needs, you’ll need to find additional vitamin supplements.

But make no mistake about it. To really get healthy, additional supplementation is necessary in this day of depleted soil and polluted environment. Don’t shortchange yourself. Buy good vitamin supplements that your body can absorb and you WILL feel a difference.
