This is the time of the year 🙂

To give you some context for the power of brushing let’s talk about cellulite. It is important to understand cellulite before you can start targeting those bumpy areas.

Very simply put, Cellulite is an accumulation of fat, fluid, toxins & waste all trapped by a net of hardened connective tissues under the skin.  The fat in this area is different to fat in other areas of the body, which is why when we try to lose weight, we lose it first from our non-cellulite areas such as our face, bust/chest, back, lower arms etc.   Where the place we really want to lose it is our tummy, hips, and thighs.

You’ll probably notice that the people who have more cellulite tend to be those who tend to sit a lot,  who tend to eat more processed foods, and who use more chemicals in their lives as well.  When toxins from the air we breathe (car fumes, bug sprays, air fresheners), the food we eat (processed, artificial flavors, preservatives), and the substances we use on our skin (like skincare products, cleaning products, deodorants etc) enter our body they are transferred through our lymphatic system for removal.  This system is the waste disposal network of our body that runs alongside our blood network.  Our blood has the heart to pump it around the body and keep it flowing.  The lymphatic system is different: it has a series of one-way valves that allow for lymph movement, but only moves when muscles around the vessels are contracted which effectively pump the lymph through those valves.  So, you can understand that someone who sits all day in a chair would have more collection of stagnant lymph around the buttocks, hips, and thighs because of a lack of movement in the muscles around that area, compared to a person who walks all day in their job.

With the lack of movement of lymph in an area the vessels become blocked and the toxins, wastes and excess fluid (water retention) will seep out into the areas around the lymph vessels.   Which is mainly around the fat cells and skin.  With this accumulation comes other problems as well, such as a lack of blood flow to the skin, which can result in other conditions such as spider veins, stretch marks, dimpling, enlarged pores (orange peel look), hot and cold areas of the skin.  Go ahead, try it now…. where you have cellulite, feel the temperature of your skin compared to an area that doesn’t.  I usually compare the buttocks to a calf or somewhere like that.  The cellulite area is always colder due to that lack of blood flow.

So, exercise and/or another form of lymphatic movement such as dry body brushing is extremely important to assist in the reduction of wastes and toxins in our cellulite areas.  Detoxification is one of the best ways to effectively assist in the reduction of cellulite because the main cause of cellulite is a build up of toxins and waste.  Makes sense right?

When looking for a treatment or product to assist in your quest for less noticeable cellulite look for something that gets your lymphatic system moving.   Will increase blood flow to your skin, and possibly stimulate the production of collagen and elastin in your skin as well.  All of the above-mentioned results are done by Body Brushing

Body Brushing for Cellulite:

Dry or wet skin brushing has so many benefits for cellulite, such as exfoliation which stimulates the production of new skin cells and collagen & elastin to form in the skin.  Excites the blood flow to the skin which helps to nourish the skin with nutrients in the blood from the foods we eat.  It manually manipulates the lymphatic flow when brushing in the correct directions for the lymph which will help move those toxins and waste through the system for elimination by the body.  The firm bristle brushes will manipulate the fat in the area effectively softening and breaking the fat cells up so they can be utilized for energy when needed by the body.

The most important part of this is consistency.  Cellulite takes a long time to build up in the skin.  It can be up to seven years of build up under the surface before any signs of cellulite actually show up on the skin itself.  So, just know that the cellulite can definitely be improved, but it will take time.  Lifestyle changes and loving your body with some TLC will definitely give you the results you are after.

Very few people know that deep breathing does help to eliminate acids/toxins via the respiratory system.

I cannot overemphasize the benefits of working out enough. About 50 years ago our life was structured completely different. People “enjoyed” much more physical work. We come from a historical background of being hunters and gatherers with lots of physical activities.

Nowadays some people’s exercise is equivalent to pumping the gas pedal and pushing the buttons on the elevator.

Also you can also recognize the opposite behavior: Some people recognize the need to work out desperately after sitting all day all week and basically overdue it by running a marathon on the weekend. Not very healthy either.

We invite you to exercise on a regular base. Try to be active/work out as much as possible:

Walking in Mother Nature

Biking

Jumping the Trampoline

Swimming

Dancing

Skip the rope

Yoga

Pilates

Life is soo easy: just open YouTube and punch in your favourite workout: Let’s “Beginner Yoga workout 10 min” or “HIIT workout 20 min with weights” and you get hundreds of suggestions and then just do it 🙂

Besides getting rid of toxins and acids enjoy a much more relaxed state of mind after your work out.

My tip for you: Try to work out in the morning and enjoy an increased metabolism with more fat burning and increased happiness hormones all day 🙂

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.

Pain Reduction

To live with chronic pain is very challenging. I like to offer you some inspirations to help with pain.

Yoga, Meditation, Therapy, Deep Joy

Emotional Stress is in my perception #1 reason for long term physical pain. Find ways to implement sources of joy and relaxation into your life on a daily base.

Physical therapy

Massage therapy, Cranio-sacral therapy, Physio therapy, Feldenkrais, Chiropractic therapy can have a positive result.

Exercise, Yoga and Walks

Mostly pain is related to an overflow of acids and toxins in your body. Deep breathing does help eliminating acids/toxins via the respiratory system.

Exercise does strengthen your muscles. In Germany there is a saying: “A strong back does give you no pain”.

Try to work out as much as you can. YouTube is full of inspirational videos about e.g. exercises for chronic neck and shoulder pain/ degenerative arthritis.

Just do it 🙂

3 Weeks Hypoallergenic Alkaline Diet

This means completely avoiding an acidic diet with all the obvious unhealthy foods to see if your pain is reduced. Your focus is a super clean healthy green diet based on organic green vegetables.

Try to avoid (as much as you can) acid generating foods like sugar, sweeteners, meet (red meat/pork), soft drinks, coffee, black tea, alcohol, milk and dairy products.

After the 3 weeks any pain symptoms should not exist anymore.

After 3 weeks you slowly introduce one acidic food at a time and see how your body reacts and if pain is reintroduced.

Arnica

Arnica is applied to the skin for pain and swelling associated with bruises, aches, sprains, and arthritis. It is also applied to the skin for  muscle and cartilage pain, chapped lips, and acne.

MSM
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) impacts your health by reducing inflammation and improving your body’s ability to make its own antioxidants.

Probiotics

If you have an inflammatory type of arthritis and lot of pain, probiotics may be especially important. The beneficial bacteria appear to have an impact on inflammation, reducing common biomarkers of inflammation, including C-reactive protein.

Vitamin C

Also known as ascorbic acid, vitamin C has also been linked with pain relief

Turmeric

Curcumin is the main active ingredient in turmeric. It has powerful anti-inflammatory effects and is a very strong antioxidant.

Omega-3

Omega-3 fats are healthy fats with many health benefits for adult and children. Omega-3 fats may help lower your risk of heart disease. In infants, omega-3 fats help with brain, nerve and eye development.  Research is currently being done to see if omega-3 fats play a role in lowering the risk of cancer, dementia, Alzheimer’s disease and depression.

Serrapeptase

Serrapeptase has been used successfully for the treatment of cardiovascular problems, arthritis, fibrocystic breast disease, lung problems, sinusitis problems, carpal tunnel syndrome, and even sports injuries. It is recommended as an anti-aging agent simply because much of aging has to do with the accumulation of scar tissue, inflammation, and dis-regulation.

Dr. Jentschura’s 3 step program

Lots of people report about great results with Dr. Jentschura’s 3 step program. Releasing acids and toxins via the skin in long soothing foot and full bath does miracles. Speaking from my own experience alkaline local treatments with e.g. Dr. Jentschura’s Neck wraps do miracles with head/neck aches. Using the body wrap does help with back pain. Step 2 in having a great green healthy diet does help a lot: Eating large amounts of WurzelKraft does help your kidneys to eliminate toxins and acids. PLEASE READ MORE HERE
