So I had a interesting experience that brought up some stuff and I wanted to like chat with you guys because it's like, you know it would be really it was kind of an eye opener for me. um so a couple weeks ago, I had a I came down list, you know, whatever the cred was that was going around, had sore throat, headache, you know, stuffy ears, the whole respiratory thing that was going around and and I just didn't feel real good. And so Lynn, sometimes in the morning, does um kind of an herbal tea thing that, um it's it's an amazing thing. And if you ever heard about it, where you basically take fresh ginger and slice it into um like eighth inch, quarter inch, thick slices, put a couple slices in a in a cup, pour hot water over it, and let it steep for five minutes and then put squeeze half a juice of half a lemon and put some honey to taste in it. and so this ginger lemon, honey hot drink is really, really wonderful. It basically it starts digestion first thing in the morning. It helps your liver to start functioning properly. It does all sorts of really wonderful things. Well, it felt really, really good on my sore throat and um you know lemon and honey is is really soothing to the respiratory system and it's really helpful, good boost of vitamamin C. So I felt really, really good. Well, I did that two or three mornings and then um I was feeling well and I only missed a day of coming into the office and then I came in the next day and um drank my whole cup of this of the of the morning tea and I was like craving more of it morning more of it. So I found um a brand of lemon, it's like lemon ginger, um in a in a tea bag and I was like hey, it'll be the same thing. And um so I made some up, put in my honey and it wasn't awful. I mean it's not it wasn't nasty, but it was there was a huge difference between the fresh lemon and the fresh ginger and the dehydrated lemon peel and the dehydrated lemon in the the, you know, ginger granules or whatever was in it, like there was such a difference in flavor and such a difference in how I felt drinking it and having it. So the whole reason I wanted to bring it up is Dr. James always talked about freshness and quality, quality of ingredients and freshness, um you know we we we almost everything that we put out um any bottle that you get is never more than six months old. Um There's a couple of herbs that sell real slow that could be a little bit more than that, but ninety0% of what we sell is never more than six months old. um so when you open those bottles, you get the smell of whatever's in it. um Somebody was talking about herbal MSM the other day where they said it basically it smells like a spaghetti dinner because of the oregano and paprika so fresh they still got those oils that give off the smell and everything like that um and the reason that freshness is such an important thing is because of how the vit over time vitamins slowly get lost within the herbs and the sp and the things that are in the formulas. So basically once you cut it, if you don't eat it within it's like 45 minutes to an hour, three fourths of the vitamins and minerals are gone. So basically, if you've got something fresh ...

  • Understanding Your Cardiovascular System:
    Jun 6 2024

    In this episode of our podcast series focusing on the systems of the body, we delve into the cardiovascular system, also known as the circulatory system. This system is crucial as it involves your heart, arteries, capillaries, and lymphatics, all working together to move blood, nutrients, and oxygen throughout your body.

    We begin by discussing the heart, an electric pump that operates through electric impulses, driving blood through your veins and arteries. Irregularities in this system can cause symptoms such as numbness, tingling, and even pain. To address these issues, we explore the "Hrt" formula, designed to nourish and strengthen the unique muscle fibers of the heart.

    Next, we turn our attention to blood health. Blood is the medium that circulates everything in the body, and its balance is vital. The "Nemia" formula helps in maintaining this balance by thickening or thinning the blood as needed and ensuring proper flow. It’s especially beneficial for rebuilding blood after significant loss.

    For those dealing with varicose veins, the "Vari cose" formula is highlighted. This formula aids in maintaining the elasticity of veins, ensuring that one-way valves function correctly and preventing the painful pooling of blood.

    We also introduce "Travl," a lesser-known formula that enhances blood movement and the strength and elasticity of the heart muscle. This is particularly useful for improving blood flow and overall cardiovascular function.

    The importance of vitamins and minerals is underscored, emphasizing how they support various body systems. We discuss the role of specific vitamins, such as B and C, in enhancing heart health when paired with herbs like Hawthorn.

    The episode also covers "Tissue Mend," which is beneficial for repairing damaged heart muscles and replenishing blood supply after significant loss. Additionally, "Fection" is recommended for detoxifying the lymphatic system, which plays a crucial role in maintaining cardiovascular health.

    For detoxification, "Blood Wash" and "Detoxalation" are essential. These formulas help cleanse the blood of toxins, rashes, fungi, and heavy metals, ensuring that your circulatory system remains healthy and functional.

    Here is a list of all the formulas we discussed:

    • Hrt
    • Nemia
    • Vari Cose
    • Travl
    • Blood Wash
    • Fection
