The term ‘immune system’ refers to the body’s defence system used to protect itself from disease (Latin for “immune” is Immunis = free, unaffected). Most people do not ‘feel’ their immune system, and regard its existence as self evident. For most of our lives, our immune system – whose function is to fight off viruses, bacteria, fungi and other intruders – works smoothly and successfully.

Only when we get sick with an infection or inflammation does it become clear how important the immune system is to our physical health and how important it is to support and maintain this system.

Those who suffer from a weak immune system will benefit from looking at their behavior, diet, stress levels, and even physical activities for the cause. How can the immune system be strengthened and balanced? Taking care of your immune health is a very important cornerstone of maintaining your physical health for as long as possible.

Our physical defence is a very subtle system. It includes cells and proteins that have the function of maintaining the body with its organs and structures. The immune system has various strategies for repelling outside intruders. On the one hand it has mechanical barriers, (the skin or mucous membranes). On the other hand, there are cells (i.e. granulocytes or lymphocytes) which work to render viruses and bacteria harmless. In addition, the body has proteins that act as messengers or as a defence against pathogens.

This sensitive system can be disrupted in its operation by a variety of external influences. These include dietary toxins that enter the body which may include processed foods, sweets, soft drinks, alcohol, and nicotine. Altogether, these items can weaken the organism and result in acidification. This also affects the immune system.

Immune boosting strategies: How can the immune system be boosted? Here are some basic guidelines to consider:

– Sufficient sleep (6 to 8 hours per day);

– Regular exercise (3 to 4 times per week of aerobic exercise, outdoors in nature);

– Stress reduction with yoga, relaxation training, alkaline baths, massages, dry and wet brushing;

– Listen to your heart and soul;

– Good hydration (with 2 to 3 litres per day of water or herbal tea)

– Avoid nicotine, alcohol;

– Alternate hot and cold showers to improve blood circulation on a regular basis;

– Take sauna or steam baths;

– Avoid drugs (especially those that destroy white blood cells such as painkillers, anti-depressants, antibiotics, beta blockers, etc.)

– Avoid fatty or highly processed foods;

– Enjoy an alkalinizing diet, rich in vitamin A, C, and iron. Eat foods that promote the production of white blood cells, including broccoli, kale, carrots, garlic, spinach, wheat germ oil, and ginger.

Recommended immune system supplement: Alkaline foods by Dr. h.c. Peter Jentschura are the perfect support  for the immune system, since many processes in the organism can only function properly when supplied with all nutrients and vital substances. Dr. Jentschura’s organic and gluten free products, including MorgenStund’, TischleinDeckDich, and WurzelKraft are rich in vitamins, minerals, fibre, and plant compounds. These vital substances support the excretory organs, which help the organism to metabolize and excrete harmful acids and pollutants.

WurzelKraft contains omnimolecular plant granules which are the molecules and building blocks of human life. This formula is made of 100 different varieties of fruits, vegetables, spices, seeds, herbs, and pollen. This composition provides all vital substances needed by the human organism. These include, for example, Vitamin C and iron, which are necessary for an efficient immune system. In addition, bee pollen is known as a ‘miracle’ because of its ingredients. Since the individual constituents of the granules are only dried and crushed or ground, they have a very high bioavailability compared to isolated mineral products.

WurzelKraft vegetable granules are a delicious snack between meals or can ‘upgrade’ different dishes such as salads, soups, breads, fruit salads, or vegetable and potato dishes. To ensure that all the important constituents of the product are absorbed by the organism so that the body is properly supplied with all the essentials, WurzelKraft should not be heated above 40°C, and be always properly chewed.

In addition, alkaline body care with Dr. Jentschura’s  alkaline-mineral body care salt, AlkaBath, contributes to the maintenance of the immune system. The alkaline pH of 8.5 stimulates the skin to excrete acids and toxins through the skin. Additional dry and wet brushes towards the excretory openings promote the circulation and cleansing of the lymphatic system, thus improving the excretion function of the skin and ensuring a high amount of relieving excretions.

These tips on sufficient body exercise and a health-conscious lifestyle in combination with a alkaline forming, omnimolecular diet plus alkaline body care, can permanently strengthen the immune system and your well-being!

MorgenStund’, TischleinDeckDich, and WurzelKraft are available in health food stores across Canada. For more information visit: www.YouInFocusProducts.com or call 1-866-722-9812 toll free.

NO EXCUSE 3 MIN WORKOUT

Nuclear physicists confirm that the universe is made out of immeasurable small particles which are basically swinging energies and vibrations.

I do not like to sound too spiritual or mystical but there are energies and sounds in this universe which support the healing of emotional and physical stress and imbalances which our bodies have to endure.

Causes Of Weight Gain

Unintentional weight gain is one of the fastest growing health problems in North America. The list of diseases caused by obesity is long, and is topped by heart failure and its precursors. But what causes weight gain? There are obvious factors like the food you eat, and some less obvious including stress and lack of sleep. But all these factors are part of a larger picture.

Can I enjoy my coffee and still be alkaline?

Isn’t it interesting? Drinking a cup of coffee can make us more feel more awake and aware. These are things that everyone enjoys and appreciates. In a humorous way: All of Northamerica runs on coffee 🙂

And a strong espresso is about 10.000 times more acidic then our blood. So our body needs to work hard to balance/buffer the coffee’s acidity. Lots of minerals from our “beauty pillars” skin, scalp, bones, theeth are used for that chemical reaction.

So it’s not surprising that a question that I get all the time from people is, “Can I still have coffee on the Alkaline Diet?”.

Ok, let’s be very clear on this! Coffee is very acid forming in the body. It does not have an alkalizing effect, and so its not a good idea to drink too much.

As everyone knows, the key to a happy and healthy life is to take “everything in moderation“. The key is the acid-alkaline balance.

“Is It Time For Me To Quit Drinking Coffee?”
Quitting coffee is easy if you’re ripe and ready to do it, and next to impossible if you aren’t! It really comes down to the question that each must answer for themselves… “What are my priorities?”

If you have serious health issues, and you’re committed to recovering your health as soon as possible, then quitting coffee is one of your best moves right now.

If coffee is still a priority for you, and you are not seriously ill, then you are probably not quitting it any time soon.

If that describes you, then here are a couple of tips to help you to keep an alkaline balance in your body while still having your morning coffee.

Tip #1 – Add Whipping Cream
On the alkaline diet, it’s generally accepted that yogurt (esp. goat and/or organic), sour cream made from real cream, cream cheese, butter and unsweetened whipping cream are all ok.

So instead of having your coffee black, or with some homogenized milk or cream, try adding whipping cream.

Dr. Jentschura says that whipping cream has a somewhat alkalizing effect on our bodies. This can partly buffer the acidity of the coffee before you even put it into your body!

Drinking your morning coffee will still contribute acidity to your system, but the net effect will be less damaging with the addition of the whipping cream.

Plus, whipping cream in coffee makes it very rich and deliciously creamy! It might take a bit of getting used to, but many people, myself included, find it really good!

Tip #2 – Take Some Extra of Dr. Jentschura’s WurzelKraft
When we consume acid-forming foods, our body compensates by buffering the acids with alkalizing minerals. These minerals are coming from your body’s mineral stores (your blood, skin, teeth, hair, bones, joints etc).

Before you have your cup of coffee, eat a few teaspoons or tablespoons of WurzelKraft. This provides your body with an abundance of alkalizing minerals and about 50.000 vital substances which it can use to buffer acids and build up its mineral stores.

Aim For A 80/20 Alkaline-Acid Balanced Diet
Its all about balance. Ideally, aim for 80% alkalizing foods and beverages in your daily diet. We are talking about fruits and vegetables (including grains, nuts and seeds). You don’t have to be perfect! Trying to be perfect, and thinking you need to be perfect is just setting yourself up for failure!

We all know when we are eating healthy, or unhealthy things. We all know when we are eating in unhealthy ways. Choose foods, and ways with foods, that you know are nourishing and nurturing to your body. And its ok not to be perfect.

An alkaline generating and nutrition rich approach is the starting point for your well being. However, the replacement of acidic foods with alkaline foods as well as the change from cooked food to raw food is not necessarily sufficient. Because over the years many impurities, toxins and other debris have deposited in the gut. This we will only slowly dissolve with a pure diet. A big belly is a sign that the colon is overloaded and overflowing with waste. A colon cleansing is indicated. If in doubt, always consult your doctor and ask for advice. Generally, however, you can facilitate a colon cleansing at home. Using a enema device it is possible to perform a gentle and particularly simple type of colon cleansing. Old impurities are flushed out of the body quickly and effectively. Also Markus Rothkranz, raw food star from the US, recommends and practices the performing regular colon cleanses using an inlet device. He promotes in detail how easy the custom colon cleansing with the help of an inlet device at home is feasible.

To create the enema fluid Dr. Jentschura recommends using his cleansing tea 7×7 AlkaHerb with 49 herbs and a pinch of AlkaBath. This creates a nice high pH-level.

Coffee enemas with a very acidic pH-level are also popular and they have a detox effect as well. But we believe that a high pH-level does pull out even more toxins/acids due to the principle of Osmosis since toxins and acids do have a low pH-level.

Also we recommend a high quality probiotic supplement to support your gut flora, not only if you had to take antibiotics, but also if your stool is too soft. You can get a high quality product which needs to be stored in the fridge. (e.g. AcidophilusUltra by New Roots)

If you suffer from constipation this may help:

Exercise

Morning Lemon Juice: drink on empty stomach: You need 1 fresh lemon and 1 cup of warm water

High fiber foods in vegetable such as sprouts, carrots, and asparagus

Fresh organic fruits, or dried fruits such as apples, raisins, apricots, and prunes

To detoxify and cleanse try dandelions tea. You need 1-2 teaspoons of dried dandelion leaves and 1 cup of hot water

Morning Organic Olive Oil: drink on empty stomach. You need 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice

Flax seed Oil Drink: You will need a glass of orange juice with pulp (8 oz.) and 1 tablespoon of flax seed oil

Baking Soda Drink: (only on empty stomach and for a maximum of 10 days) You will need 1 teaspoon baking soda and  1/4 cup warm water. Drink quickly!

Morning  Lemon Juice: drink on empty stomach: You need 1 fresh lemon and 1 cup of warm water

Empty out with Epsom salts emergency drink: You will need 2 teaspoons of Epsom salt (for adults) OR ½ teaspoon (for children)* and 1 cup of water or fruit juice

Concerning your (gut) health please notice that it took us quite some time (10, 20, 30 years plus) to imbalance our health. Now give it some time and effort to rebalance 🙂
