Greetings,

    I really appreciate you reading and giving me feedback regarding this newsletter. It is an honor and privilege to write for you about health and preventive issues.

    Each month I have been writing from a brilliant manifesto about how we can take control of our  health. I am wrapping it up in the next couple of months and would like to say it has been a radical and honest look into our patterns as a society and how it trickles down to affect each one of us. I hope you are enjoying this series! 

   Please feel free to ask questions by clicking on the link below.  However, please call my office for any personal or medical issues as my business email is not secured; this is for your protection. 

 Yours in health,

"The scope and scale of our national heath crisis is so massive that it may seem beyond all hope. But it is not.  In fact, each of us has an important role to play in solving these problems for ourselves, and for each other. 

 Every time one of us starts taking the steps necessary to build and protect our heath, we rescind our support of the nasty  systems that are breaking millions of us down. 

 And if enough of us start treating our own bodies well, we will create new norms of vitality and well-being.  If we band together to demand and embrace healthier options-in our grocery stores, cafeterias, homes, workplaces, schools, healthcare centers, neighborhoods-we can reverse the trends that have been depleting our life force for decades. 

Most of the trends and public policies responsible for our country's ill health have occurred over the past 40 years-in large part, by design. And they can be turned around in a fraction of that time by a swell of grass roots insistence. 

So if you can help make that happen, do. Connect with others who share your healthy convictions. Then go boldly forth and start thriving-one conscious thought, one empowering choice, one revolutionary act at a time!"

Expanded B-12 

WHAT IS EXPANDED B-12 AND WHAT DOES EACH COMPOUND DO?

• METHIONINE: an amino acid that prevents excess fat buildup in the liver and body. It is helpful in relieving or preventing fatigue and may be useful in some cases of allergies because it reduces histamine release.
• INOSITOL: Aids in the metabolism of fats and helps to lower cholesterol levels. It participates in the action of serotonin, a neurotransmitter know to control mood and appetite.
• CHOLINE: It is essential for fat and cholesterol metabolism in the body. It facilitates the movement of fats into the cells, prevents fats from accumulating in the liver, in addition to supporting the health of the liver in its' processing and excretion of chemical waste products.
• VITAMIN B 12: Boosts energy, helping to increase activity levels and its essential for helping to form new cells in the body.
• VITAMIN B-6: Controls water weight by maintaining sodium and potassium balance. It is necessary for fat, carbohydrate, and protein metabolism, in addition to metabolism of hormones and brain chemicals like serotonin. When combined with vitamin B-12 it provides more sustained energy levels which increases activity and helps to burn more calories.
• FOLIC ACID: Works best when combined with B-12. Essential for energy production, formation of red blood cells, important for healthy cell function and necessary for protein metabolism. It is also helpful to alleviate depression and anxiety.
• AMP (adenosine-5-monophosphate): A naturally occurring substance in the body that is a key component for proper fat and carbohydrate metabolism, increases energy, has a positive effect on weight loss, stamina and overall mood. It is great for chronic fatigue, weight loss plateaus, suppressing appetite, thyroid disorder and slow metabolism.
