Best Vitamins

It is said that in order to live a wholesome life, we need to set goals in life, do not do things that make you unhappy. However, we often forget we need to maintain a healthy physical life too.

According to Food Standards Agency, UK, a healthy balanced diet contains a variety of foods including plenty of fruit and vegetables, plenty of starchy foods such as wholegrain bread, pasta and rice, some protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, eggs and lentils and some dairy foods. It should also be low in fat (especially saturated fat), salt and sugar.

Here is our best recommendation on Best Vitamins


Supplements For Women

In this modern society, married, working women experience a considerable amount of strain from their multiple roles. This is also due to the fact of challenges at work place and home, rising economic bruden and of course the environmental stress.

Women need to achieve balance strating with the biological rhythms of ovulation, menstruation, contraception, conception, childbirth, lactation and right up to menopause. We can say without any exception, every woman experience a range of health issues all their own.

In summary, all in all, poor diet, lack of exercise, stress and environmental factors can further complicate matters.

It is not always easy to tell the difference between quality ingredients and cheaper substitutes in women's health supplements.

A Good Advice is to Take Complete Mulit-Vitamin, Mineral and Herbal Formulas for Women

Rather than take a handful of individual women's health supplements tablets, such as vitamin A, B, C, D, E, etc., it is usually more economical and convenient to take a complete daily formula.

A good "multi" formula should give you a generous blend of high quality vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, amino acids, enzymes, herbal supplements, etc. A quality formula should be made up of the most natural food factors available, not synthetic chemicals.

Most multi-vitamin formulas do not include amino acids. Check the labels. It is difficult to find multi-vitamins for women that contain amino acids.

A good multi-vitamin formula should contain just the right balance of the following.

* Vitamins* Minerals* Amino Acids* Herbal Extracts * Antioxidants* Bioflavonoids * Enzymes * Neuronutrients

A multivitamin designed for a woman would include herbal ingredients that are not the same as you'd find in a man's formula. Such as Black Cohosh, Wild Yam Extract and other "womens" herbs.

It should also include Antioxidants such as Zeaxanthin, Bilberry, Selenium, Green Tea, etc.

How do you find such a super supplement?

Tips on Finding the Best Health Supplements for Women:
1. Only buy supplements from companies that are pharmaceutical GMP compliant. These companies follow tight regulatory standards. Buyer beware - dietary supplements are not tested or regulated in the United States. They may not actually deliver what they claim on the label. In some cases, products have been discovered that contain lead or other contaminants.

2. Check the label to see if the health supplements are made up of cheap additive fillers such as cornstarch, rice, sugar, silica (sand), artificial colors, etc.

3. Only buy standardized extracts. That way you get true potency of the herbs and nutrients. Get your money's worth and avoid cheating your body out of the health benefits it should have. Don't take risks with your health.

Boys and girls, Parents and children.
Time to exercise.
One click in Google search, you would be able to see literally thousands of ways to exercise.
Yet, we are always been asked, whether there is any simplified way to exercise for effective results. Exercises that are easy regardless of age or sex.

Many of these exercises actually have a common ground and to achieve same objectives.
Young or old... everyone (without prejudice) is created to pursue happiness, health and wealth. Below is a unified (and universal) form of exercise.
We are sharing them for FREE. Use it and do a favor to others, by sharing them generously with others. Your loved ones, friends and colleagues, young or old, need it.


These exercises, when looked from the viewpoint of the Principle , are based on the Principle of Give and Take action. Anyone can discipline himself/herself with these very interesting, proven, effective exercises in order to maintain health even amidst hardships of life. It is advised that when doing these exercises to not draw shallow breaths into your lungs, but to take in deep breaths, thereby drawing strength from your abdomen.

In the beginning, these exercises won’t be easy to complete perfectly. These exercises are designed based on the Principle of Give and Take Action, therefore, through practice and investment in uniting our mind and body, we surely can come closer to Heaven (Divine) in our daily life and activities.

These exercises should be done in the morning, and they take around fifteen minutes.
Note on counting for exercises:

When performing each of these exercises, count up to eight, for two times in the following manner.

-LETS START -



Eye Exercises
When we rise in the morning, the very first thing we do is open our eyes. Thus, eyes represent the start of life. Doing these eye massage exercises can greatly benefit the health and strength of your eyes and also prevent premature weakening of eyesight. Also in doing these eye exercises, you are determining to spend today in a way pleasing to Heaven with a renewed mind and body.
1. Placing your middle fingers of both hands on your tear-ducts of both eyes, and your index fingers at the other side of your eyes, press lightly to the count.
2. Close your eyes and using the two same fingers on both your hands, press lightly against your eyeballs.
3. Lastly, massage your eyeballs by in a circular movement with your four fingers on each hand, first count to eight massaging outwardly, then inwardly on the next count.
Nose Exercise
Our nose provides us with the most important thing to maintain our physiological lifeforce: breathing air.
Unfortunately nowadays, there are many people whose breathing is affected because of nose problems. People who suffer from such conditions should do this exercise diligently.
1. Take in a deep breath and with both index fingers, starting from the top of your nose, press firmly descending with each press down to your nostrils. (count up to eight once)
2. Tightly hold your index fingers against your nostrils and try to force your breath out through your nose. Count to eight and let out your breath.
Mouth Exercises
When rising in the morning, it is important to cultivate a heart to use one’s mouth to speak bright and beautiful words. As we are massaging our mouths each morning as Father did in prison, let us use this time to repent for misusing our mouths in the wrong way.
1. Massage your mouth by placing the blade of your right hand above your lips, and the blade of your left hand below your lips. After one count of eight switch your hands and count to eight again.
2. Using four fingers, massage your checks in a circular fashion, while keeping your mouth closed. After one count of eight, switch direction.
Ear Exercise
Our ears are the meeting point for all the blood vessels in our body. Therefore, massaging the ears provides a great support for the health of not only the blood vessels in your head, but throughout your entire body.
1. Grab both ears with your thumb placed behind your ear and pull them forward, pressing into your ear holes.
2. Holding the top of your ears with both hands, pull your ears down letting your hands trail the shape of your ear down to your ear lobes.
3. Place your thumb at the top of the inside of your ear, and with your index and middle fingers massage your ear by circling forward (the opposite direction from last exercise)
Neck Exercise
The neck provides an extremely important connection for blood passage to the brain. If the neck is stiff, headaches can occur easily. Let’s always make sure our neck is loose and flexible.
1. Lower your head, applying force on your neck muscles.
2. Do the same, this time stretching your neck back.
3. Repeat the same process for right side and then left side.
4. Finally, circle your neck slowly and carefully. Then go to the opposite direction.
Arm Exercise
Upon the principle of give and take action, pushing your arms against each other in this exercise helps your arms maintain their proper place. Because your arms are connected directly to your shoulders, if you exercise your arms diligently you can greatly benefit your shoulders as well as the flow of blood all around your body. During this time in Heung Nam priseon, Father did this exercise to keep his arms in tip top condition.
1. Breathe in deeply and, placing your right hand on the underside of your left arm right under your palm, apply pressure as you hold your breath.
2. Let your breath out and switch your left and right hands. Repeat the exercise.
Finger Exercise
Doing this exercise helps your finger joints become more flexible and improves the flow of blood through right through to your fingertips.
1. Starting with your left hand, use your right hand to pull back your four fingers.
2. Switch hands and repeat.
3. Clasp your fingers on both hands together and then extend them out the full extent of your arm in a circular fashion.
Waist Exercise
If your waist is stiff and blocked, the important passageways in your abdomen and upper chest are also blocked. Doing this exercise helps free up these passageways throughout your entire body.
1. Reach down to touch the floor with your hands, keeping your waist and legs upright.
2. Placing your two hands at the base of your back, stretch your torso back.
3. Holding your hands in the same position, rotate your hips, clockwise, then counterclockwise.
Knee Exercise
Having healthy knees is a great benefit to doing God’s Will, however, if the joints are unhealthy, you can suddenly become very restricted. Loosening up your knee joints through this exercise lets you use the rest of your body with great ease and comfort.
1. Place both hands on your knees and rotate them in opposite directions.
2. Switch directions.
Limb Strengthening Exercise
This exercise helps to release blocked blood flow throughout the body as well as improve the efficiency of the pelvis.
Assume a sitting position. After a deep breath, raise your legs up to your torso and wrap your arms around your knees, locking them in that position through clasping your hands together. Push against your arms with both legs.
Pelvis exercise 1
The pelvis is a very important part of our body. If it develops a problem, this can affect our entire body.
1. In a sitting position draw both legs forward so that the soles of both feet are pressed against each other. Then pull both feet as close to your body as possible.
2. Holding both feet in that position, bend your torso down toward the ground.
Pelvis exercise 2
For most people this exercise can be quite difficult to complete. Nevertheless, doing this exercise consistently, as Father did in his youth, can greatly benefit your pelvis, as well as your body’s overall flexibility.
1. Assume a sitting position.
2. Take in a deep breath, then slowly lift your right foot until it rests behind your head.
3. Perform the same with the other leg.
Toes Exercise
When you get older, the blood flow to the toes, being the farthest point away from the heart, can present a health problem. Massaging your toes with this exercise can maintain good blood flow from the heart to the toes.
1. In a sitting position, place your right foot on top of your left foot. Massage your toes by pulling them down.
2. Repeat, this time pushing your toes upward.
Leg Exercise
This jogging exercise helps keep ones stature and height in later life. We have to diligently exercise our legs so that we won’t suffer when we get older.
1. Standing up, place both hands loosely by your side and jog on the spot lifting both legs slightly skewed away from the body.
2. Keep jogging, this time lifting your legs up and bending your legs towards your body.
3. Perform the first exercise again, this time jogging in a circle instead of staying on the spot.

What are 9 DEADLY DISEASES THAT ARE SENDING PEOPLE TO AN EARLY GRAVE !

I recently read that the World Health Organization warned that cancer, heart disease, and all other chronic conditions, which already killed more than 24 million people a year, will impose increasing burdens of suffering and disability on hundreds of millions of others.

ARE YOU, YOUR LOVED ONES, COLLEAGUES LIKELY A VICTIM?


Health enemy #1- Heart Disease
FACT: Coronary artery disease is the number one killer in industrialized nation’s today accounting for over 7.2 million deaths a year.

Heart disease is an inflammatory disease of the artery-not a disease of cholesterol. Over half of the patients who suffer a heart attack have normal cholesterol levels. The underlying cause of inflammation of the artery is “oxidized” LDL cholesterol, homocysteine, along with excessive free radicals caused by hypertension, diabetes, cigarette smoking, fatty meals and elevated insulin levels. All of these causes of inflammation of the artery are either eliminated or significantly reduced by the use of nutritional supplementation

Health Enemy #2- Cancer
FACT: 6.3 million people die of cancer yearly

In spite of the great advances in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, the eventual outcome is too often a very difficult and painful death. Medical literature increasingly supports the fact that cancer develops from damage to the DNA of the cells by unstable molecules over the course of 10 to 20 years. Many studies have correlated that high levels of quality vitamin C intakes with low rates of cancer, particularly cancers of the mouth, larynx and esophagus.

Health Enemy #3- Stroke
FACT: 4.6 million people die from stroke every year

Stroke occurs suddenly and usually without warning. Dr. Meir Stampfer reported in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1995 that 15 percent of all strokes could be related to elevated homocysteine, a by-product of protein metabolism that is elevated in individuals who have low levels of folic acid and vitamins B6 and B12. Studies have shown that by increasing your levels of vitamins B6 and B12 with high quality supplements could help prevent stroke

Health Enemy #4- Diabetes
FACT: 135 million people suffer from diabetes, and it’s estimated to rise to 300 million by the year 2025

The overwhelming new cases of diabetes in the world today are the result of insulin resistance. Physicians are busy treating blood sugars rather than the underlying problem, which is insulin resistance. Diet, exercise and potent nutritional supplements all improve sensitivity to your own insulin and are critical in preventing diabetes from occurring or if you already have diabetes, helping control your diabetes.

Health Enemy #5- Osteoporosis
FACT: 25 north Americans suffer from osteoporosis

Osteoporosis and bone health not only depend on estrogen and calcium, but on a wide range of nutrients, including vitamins B6, C, D, K, folic acid, magnesium, manganese, zinc and copper. Failure to meet one or more of these nutrient needs could result in accelerated osteoporosis. Maintaining strong and healthy bones should begin early.

Health Enemy #6- Arthritis
FACT: over 165 million people have some form of arthritis
More than 70 to 80 percent of the population over 50 suffers from degenerative arthritis.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication does nothing to slow down the progression of the disease and is responsible for over 100,000 hospital admissions each year with 16,000 deaths. Glucosamine sulfate along with complete and balanced nutritional supplements on the other hand, actually slows down degenerative arthritis and is even able to increase cartilage within the joint, without dangerous side effects.

Health Enemy #7- Alzheimer’s
FACT: An estimated 29 million people suffer from dementia

Alzheimer’s dementia has been shown to be caused by oxidative stress. Patients who have the highest intake of antioxidants, which combats oxidative stress have the lowest risk of developing Alzheimer’s dementia. I believe that the best way to protect yourself from the development of these neuro-degenerative diseases is by taking highly potent nutritional supplements.

Health Enemy #8- Obesity
FACT: For the first time in the history of the United States and other industrialized nations there are more people who are obese than are of normal weight

Researchers are beginning to realize that one of the main causes of obesity is insulin resistance. Eating in such a way as not to spike your blood sugar, modest exercise, and nutritional supplements all improve insulin sensitivity. This triad of healthy lifestyles has a side affect of fat loss.

Health Enemy #9- Skin Cancer
FACT: A five-fold increase in almost all types of skin cancer has occurred over the past two decades

Recent medical research shows that skin cancer is caused by oxidative stress. To combat this problem it is important to choose a sun screen that protects us from both UVA and UBV sunlight and to use high quality antioxidant nutritional supplements to fortify our own antioxidant defense systems. It is also vital that we carefully choose and use skin care products that are natural and contain a full array of antioxidants.

The good news is, there is a way to figure out exactly what your body needs and with a little research you can find a company that can supply all your supplemental needs and by taking the right combination of vitamin supplements you will help protect your body and mind from these 9 deadly health enemies that are sending people to an early grave.


"Back at the turn of the 20th century, the five leading causes of death were all infectious diseases. The epidemic of degenerative diseases has developed throughout this century." -Myron Wentz, Ph.D., Founder and Chairman, USANA Health Sciences, Inc.


Degenerative Disease
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
A degenerative disease is a disease in which the function or structure of the affected tissues or organs will progressively deteriorate over time, whether due to normal bodily wear or lifestyle choices such as exercise or eating habits. Degenerative diseases are the opposite of infectious diseases.

10 Shocking Killer Facts

Smokers: Take note and take action.
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world, particularly in developing countries.
And tobacco is the culprit. It is one of the largest causes of cancer in the world.

In 2008, a report by the International Agency for Research on Cancer revealed that, until recently, cancer was considered a disease of westernized, industrialized countries.

Today, the situation has dramatically changed with the majority of the global cancer cases now found in the developing world.

Having said that, myths and misconceptions about cancer still abound.

Below are compiled facts from the World Health Organization about this killer disease.

There are more than 100 types of cancers; any part of the body can be affected.

Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide: In 2007, it accounted for 7.9 million deaths (around 13 per cent of all deaths) in 2007.

The five most common types of cancer that kill men worldwide are (in order of frequency): lung, stomach, liver, colorectal and esophagus.

While for women worldwide the five most common types of cancer are: breast, lung, stomach, colorectal and cervical.

About 72 per cent of all cancer deaths in 2007 occurred in low- and middle-income countries.

Deaths from cancer worldwide are projected to continue rising, with an estimated 12 million deaths in 2030.

The World Health Orginization (WHO) estimates that 30 per cent of cancers can be prevented, mainly by not using tobacco, having a healthy diet and being physically active.

Tobacco use is the single largest preventable cause of cancer in the world.

A third of cancers could be cured if detected early and treated adequately.

A fifth of all cancers in the world are caused by a chronic infection, for example human papillomavirus (HPV) causes cervical cancer and hepatitis B virus (HBV) causes liver cancer.
