Chemical Exposure Linked to Billions in Health Care Costs

Saturday, March 7th, 2015

Researchers conclude they are 99 percent certain that hormone-altering chemicals are linked to attention problems, diabetes, other health problems.

See:  http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2015/03/150305-chemicals-endocrine-disruptors-diabetes-toxic-environment-ngfood/

I wonder if significant intake of Vitamin C would help detoxify the body of such chemicals?  My wife was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in the late 1990’s.  She began a regimen including Vitamin C and the symptoms went away.  Her physician had her on three different drugs at the time.  She discontinued the drugs and focused on alternative prevention.  She has been symptom-free for over a decade.  For years, we have used the Vitamin C  which is now offered by Creation’s Nutrients:  C-1000 TR

Vitamin D3

Friday, February 27th, 2015

Dr. Sherry Rogers is a well-known physician whom I have personally met.  She was a friend of Dr. Speckhart.  In her latest newsletter she focuses on the medical world’s lack of understanding of the need for vitamin D3 on a daily basis.  She states that a minimum of 5,000IU is needed if you want to prevent heart disease, cancer, infections, diabetes, osteoporosis, depression, etc.  (reference: “Total Wellness” March 2015 Page 1)

During the winter months, we take it every day.  In the summer months we spend sufficient time in the sun reducing the need for a supplement.

You can obtain this supplement at https://www.creationsnutrients.us  item # CN1108:  Vitamin D3 5000iu

Potassium Iodate

Monday, December 15th, 2014

In light of an article recently posted by Paul Craig Roberts, it might not hurt to check your supply of potassium iodate.  I purchased enough for our entire family a few years ago and it has an extended shelf life.  Each of us must determine what level of insurance we want during what I call a “bridge” period… until FATHER fully empowers those who HE has called to deal with the lawlessness.

There is no need to be fearful, simply be prepared.

Creations Nutrients carries this product as item # CN3042 at www.creationsnutrients.us

If you cannot afford your own supply for your immediate family, write Servias Ministries and ask us to help out.  Any  request deemed to be reasonable will be fulfilled while supplies last.

 

Stephen Jones’ comments about potassium iodate:

…  potassium iodate, which saturates the thyroid gland with "good" iodine so that it has no room to absorb the radioactive iodine-131 that not only gives people cancer but also destroys the thyroid gland.

Fortunately, radioactive iodine has a half-life of just 8 days, and so it breaks down to a "safe" level after about 45 days. So we only need to contend with this problem for about 6 weeks.  Potassium iodate as a "cheap thyroid insurance" to be stored in a cabinet in the event of a nearby nuclear event that could affect one’s thyroid.

Immune Support

Friday, December 5th, 2014

From the NY Times:  Deadlier Flu Season Is Possible, C.D.C. Says

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/05/health/cdc-warns-that-flu-season-may-be-more-deadly-than-usual.html?_r=0

My wife and I take two immune support supplements beginning in September and we take then through April each season.  We do not get a flu shot as many do.  The flu injection may not work as it appears to be the case this year.  Instead we focus on boosting our immune systems with these two specific products:

Vitamin D3

and

Im-Comp.

Both of these products are sold by www.creationsnutrients.us  product #’s are CN1108 and CN5081.  You can read about vitamin D3 at www.vitamindcouncil.org  .  Im-Comp has several ingredients that help our immune system:  Vitamin C, zinc, Echinacea extract, Blue Flag, thymus nutrition support, and lymph nutrition support.

Each of us has a unique history of what we have been exposed thus our immune systems are at different levels of effectiveness.  Some have been overloaded with heavy metals while others have residual pharmaceuticals playing a role in impacting the immune system.  Some have inhaled agricultural chemicals for years.

I do not expect these supplements to eliminate the possibility of contracting the flu.  However, boosting the immune system has been shown to minimize the flu’s impact in our household.  As one of my friends who practiced medicine for over 40 years says, “The body is designed to heal itself.”  Our job is to provide the nutrition to encourage the healing and resistance to viral invasion.   If you decide to purchase these products, Im-Comp is a 30 day supply for an individual.  We takes ours in the morning and in the evening.  We take a Vitamin D3 softgel (60 softgels per bottle) in the evening with the Im-Comp.  This seems to work well for us.

Our supplement regimen has worked well based on recent physicals we both had.  My wife had an ultrasound on her carotid artery to see if any plaque was accumulating.  Good news, it wasn’t.  The flax oil capsules (CN5079) we’ve been taking for years promote healthy veins and arteries.  Our HDL and LDL readings were excellent.  It never hurts to verify your regimen.

Why I use Super Limber

Monday, October 27th, 2014

In 2002, I quit jogging due to knee pain.  A health professional told me the cartilage in my joints were getting weak causing me to lose my normal stride and placing pressure on my knees.  I opted to quit because I didn’t want to limp around the next day after running 3 miles AND enduring the associated pain.  I contacted my supplement buddy and he sent me some Super Limber to try out.  I started taking the supplement and noticed a reduction in pain.  Last April I ran a half-marathon and finished!  The next day I was a little sore but no knee pain whatsoever. In 2002, I would not have considered running OR walking a half-marathon.  I currently run 4 miles three times per week, sometimes I “up” the run to 5 miles on Friday.  My joints don’t ache anymore after the exercise at all. 

Good nutrition helps feed muscles, bones, and tissues which allows us to maintain an active lifestyle as we age.  Obviously no one can guarantee an outcome based on taking any supplement.  I believe in providing my body with the necessary building blocks and supplements in order to promote good health.  When I was young, I was indestructible, but now… not so much.

Super Limber has been formulated with the following ingredients:

Super Limber contains glucosamine.  WebMd states:

Glucosamine helps keep the cartilage in joints healthy. But natural glucosamine levels drop as people age. This can lead to gradual deterioration of the joint.

There’s some evidence that glucosamine sulfate supplements help counteract this effect, although experts aren’t sure exactly how they work. Specifically, glucosamine has been shown in some studies to help ease the pain of mild to moderate osteoarthritis of the knee. Glucosamine may also help with other joint pain caused by osteoarthritis.

Glucosamine has also been used to try and treat rheumatoid arthritis and other conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease, asthma, allergies, chronic venous insufficiency, sports injuries, temporomandibular joint problems (TMJ), chronic low back pain, and many others. So far, these uses of glucosamine are not well supported by evidence from research studies.

Super Limber contains Chondroitin Sulfate.   Chondroitin sulfate is an important structural component of cartilage and provides much of its resistance to compression.  Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chondroitin_sulfate

Super Limber contains Bromelain.

It has admirable qualities including improving protein digestion, reducing inflammation and treating indigestion.

Super Limber contains Magnesium Ascorbate, a form of Vitamin C.

Super Limber contains Boswellia Serrata Extract, a potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects that can reduce the pain and inflammation of joints.  Source:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boswellia_serrata#cite_note-14

Nuclear Concerns?

Thursday, September 4th, 2014

With the war drums beating loudly these days, it never hurts to have a personal inventory of Potassium Iodate on hand.  On a personal note, we have a sufficient supply for all our family members, not only my immediate family.  I carry a bottle in my suitcase when I travel.  May we never need to break the seal!  However, as an act of Love, I wanted to have bottles on hand.

There have been various agencies who have purchased a supply “in case of”.  It is better to be days, weeks, months, or years early than one day too late.

Creations Nutrients carries the product with an item # of CN3042.  You may order it at www.creationsnutrients.us

Stephen Jones wrote a blog about the use of this product: http://www.gods-kingdom-ministries.net/daily-weblogs/2011/09-2011/radiation-article-from-the-bbc-and-my-comments/

This product has a notable shelf life according to the manufacturer.  Store it in a cool, dry place.

PS:  There have been rumors of militants planning a surprise anniversary event.  It never hurts to err on the side of caution.

Nourished Joints

Friday, June 27th, 2014

Back in 2002, I began to suffer anterior(inside) knee pain when I jogged.  I quit for awhile and tried again, same results.  Later, a friend suggested I get custom shoes made so I went to a local shoemaker who turned out to also make orthotic inserts.  Orthopedic surgeons sent their patients to his company to be fitted after surgery.  He told me that since I dealt with the issue early, inserts would manage the problem but I should quit jogging and move to low impact exercise.  I was getting older and my joints were not supporting my exercise regimen any longer.  Either no more jogging or risk probable knee surgery.  Bummer.

I talked to Doug, my vitamin supplement expert and he suggested I begin taking “Super Limber” to start feeding my joints.  I bought an elliptical workout machine for my cardio workout but it just isn’t the same as running.

Last year, I experimented with jogging again.  Knee pain was no longer an issue.  I believe the inserts corrected my gait and the Super Limber has helped my joints thus allowing me to jog again.

Pain is the messenger to tell you something needs attention.  My friends are also taking Super Limber.  One is a framing contractor climbing ladders all day.  One could not kneel down without pain until he started taking Super Limber.  His doctor wanted some as well.  Another is a policeman who gets irritated with his wife if he runs low.  Each individual is unique in his needs.

I set up www.creationsnutrients.us to help other people obtain quality vitamins and supplements at a reasonable price.  I am not interested in “cheap”, I’m interested in value.  I have been to the manufacturing facility and know that Doug buys the best and appropriate ingredients for his product.  He is more concerned about effectiveness than he is about making an extra buck by compromising the process.  I have a 15 year history with Doug and his passion for providing supplements to encourage good health.  I prefer to spend money on prevention of health issues than to simply respond to the issues when they arise.  Pam and I have taken this path and take no pharmaceuticals.

If you suffer from joint pain, you might want to try Super Limber for 3 months.  I, myself and my buddies did.  It worked for us and we all have continued this alternative to orthodox medicine’s approach of knee replacement.  It isn’t a quick fix.  It won’t heal you but it will provide the body with the building blocks for the body to heal itself… which is what the body is designed to do.

When you sign up as a customer of www.creationsnutrients.us , you can check a box to direct 5% of your purchase to this ministry or a couple of other ministries.  You pay no more for the product, we simply make less profit and support a ministry.

This year I ran a half marathon (13.1 miles) with my daughter and son-in-law.  Back in 2002 I never considered that to be a possibility in the future.  It’s never too late to change your course in the matter of health.  I am a testimony to that truth.

Personal Testimony

Saturday, May 3rd, 2014

Yesterday morning, I reached my goal of losing 40 pounds.  Each day I weigh as soon as I wake up, no matter what I have consumed the previous day.  I began this journey on August 20th, 2012.  I knew it would be lengthy and require discipline.  I have learned and reconfirmed the following based on my own results:

– 80-90% of weight loss is tied to nutrition

– 10-20% of weight loss is tied to exercise

– Both are needed to work together to maximize effectiveness

– A supplement may help the metabolism

I added a supplement to help burn the fat.  I used the supplement Rasberry Ketone/Green Coffee offered by Creation’s Nutrients( www.creationsnutrients.us ).  I personally believe that the combination of these three was instrumental in producing the desired results.  The reduction in weight has had many health benefits.  It is suggested that after you have been at your new weight for a year, your body has adjusted to the new level.  This was true for me.

I did have to start rebuilding my wardrobe which was a welcome cost.  My suits could be tailored down to the new size.  Fortunately my feet did not shrink.  I share this to encourage those of you who wish to lose weight that even if you are over 60, you can do it as I did.  Those who are thin have been blessed with a physiology the rest of us were not.

If you don’t diet at all, the supplement will probably be of little benefit.  Diet without exercise produces less results than the combination.  Walking can be just as beneficial as jogging if you are disciplined in walking at least 3 times each week.  Our Heavenly Father will help you if you truly want to change.  You will begin to eat in order to satisfy your hunger rather than your appetite.

I am sure that having 40 less pounds to carry was instrumental in my successful completion of the Oklahoma City half-marathon (13.1 miles).  Last year I was happy to run the 5K (3.1 miles).  My recovery time this year was minimal.  I guess those supplements I take, especially Super Limber, have paid off.  I can’t guarantee you will have the same results but you can be sure that if you don’t do something about your health, it will probably deteriorate at a faster rate.

Before dieting and beginning an exercise program, you should consult your healthcare professional.

The race was a “run to remember”, the slogan this year.

Is Our Heavenly Father interested in nutrition?

Wednesday, April 30th, 2014

An unequivocal yes!

Mankind has been sold a bill of goods concerning nutrition.  The pharmaceutical companies would have you believe that an ailment arises from the lack of one of their products.  They tout “quality of life” as their mantra when selling you drugs to sleep, relieve pain, or deal with chronic inflammation.  When you respond to their arguments, you simply put more toxic substances in your body.  Don’t get me wrong, there is a time to pick the best of two outcomes.  Our bodies are overloaded with toxins from the air, water, and the food we ingest.  Our body’s immune system becomes overloaded and at some point, chronic health issues surface.  Often, the root cause of the health issue is not obvious.  The physician’s diagnosis is only as good as his or her training.  They are not “GOD” even though some of them would have you believe that they are.

As you increase in your sensitivity to the Holy Spirit and hear Our Heavenly Father’s voice, you can improve your health. You can start by asking if a particular food is good for you.  You can look at produce at the market and ask which fruit or vegetable should be picked.  This may not seem important to you but these small acts help you develop a sensitivity to your body’s needs.  Instead of satisfying your appetite, you begin to satisfy your hunger.  That is one aspect of dying to the old man.

Our Heavenly Father directed me to help Doug Evers in his nutrition business.  Though I thought I already had plenty on my plate (pun intended), HE wanted me to help Doug.  We’ve been taking Doug’s supplements for about 15 years and I suspect the fact that neither my wife nor I are taking any medication at this point in our lives is a testimony to that path we chose.  This year I expect the Remnant will begin to manifest notably improved health.  Some will be healed miraculously.  Others will be healed by hearing HIS Voice and responding to a change in diet, exercise, and supplements.  Some will lose weight to a more desired level.  All of this will be due to being led by the Spirit.  Allergies will no longer be a problem to those who respond.  Chronic inflammation will cease.  Overall wellbeing will improve.  In light of this, let’s look at the daughter of Jairus.  His name means “Whom GOD enlightens”.   Jairus was an overseer or ruler of the synagogue.  It was his duty to select the readers or teachers in the synagogue, to examine the discourses of the public speakers, and to see that all things were done with decency and in accordance with ancestral usage.

Jairus heard Jesus speak and knew that Jesus could heal his 12 year old daughter.  He asked Jesus to come and heal her.  Jesus responded and proceeded to Jairus’ house.  On the way to the house, the woman with the issue of blood enters the picture:

Mark 5:25 Now a certain woman had a flow of blood for twelve years, 26 and had suffered many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse.

Does this scenario sound familiar?  Our current healthcare system is designed to extract all your money from you whether you get healed or not.  In her case, she grew worse.  The physicians were obviously not led by the Spirit or she would have improved.  At any rate, her faith healed her.  Jesus did not have to formulate some long prayer of petition toward Heaven.  Virtue or power flowed out of Him into her and the result was a full restoration.  As Jesus was speaking to the woman:

35 While He was still speaking, some came from the ruler of the synagogue’s house who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?”

Jesus was not moved by the troubling report:

36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, He said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not be afraid; only believe.”  37 And He permitted no one to follow Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James. 38 Then He came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and saw a tumult and those who wept and wailed loudly. 39 When He came in, He said to them, “Why make this commotion and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeping.”

40 And they ridiculed Him. But when He had put them all outside, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with Him, and entered where the child was lying. 41 Then He took the child by the hand, and said to her, “Talitha, cumi,” which is translated, “Little girl, I say to you, arise.” 42 Immediately the girl arose and walked, for she was twelve years of age. And they were overcome with great amazement. 43 But He commanded them strictly that no one should know it, and said that something should be given her to eat.

Jesus raises the little girl from the dead but He didn’t stop there.  He commanded them to giver her something to eat.  Jesus was specifically concerned about her immediately eating after being raised from the dead.  His focus on her nutrition necessitates our focus as well.  The story could have ended without this little fact.  However, Our Heavenly Father placed it there so we would be enlightened to the priority of nutrition as subtle as it may be.  We tend to think that our spiritual walk has little or no consideration for our physical wellbeing, that we must somehow “suffer for Christ” in the physical.  Jesus is in the physical healing business.  He fed the multitudes.  Our Heavenly Father is as concerned about your daily nutrition as HE is in other aspects of your daily walk.  HE is sufficiently capable of dealing with you in all areas.  Each of us has a unique ideal weight.  Ask Our Heavenly Father what it is, then ask HIM to guide you to that weight.  Be sensitive to HIS direction and HE will instruct you on what to eat, what to abstain from, and what supplements to take.  Out of HIS Love for us, HE gave us food Laws to live by.  It is a challenge to testify of HIM when we are chronically sick.  This must be an area of interest to HIM since HE directed me to write about it today.
