Autoimmunity

 

 

Autoimmune disease can affect almost any part of the body. Examples are Hashimoto's Thyroiditis and Graves Disease which both affect the Thyroid while Rheumatoid Arthritis affects the joints. Some autoimmune diseases can affect many parts of the body at once. Symptoms can be debilitating making you much more dependant on other people and you sometimes feel that you're a burden on your friends and family. Simple tasks become difficult or impossible, and normal employment literally becomes a thing of the past.

Featured Sponsor - JuicePlus+
Juice Plus   

Bikram Yoga and Juice Plus+, a combination that will help you feel great and live a healthy and productive life! If you are part of the 60 day challenge, you are seeing positive changes in your appearance by now because of the Bikram Yoga. But research shows that even the best intensive exercise can cause of excess oxidative stress. The best thing you can do reduce harm and damage to your cells from oxidative stress is to eat more raw, vine ripened fruits, vegetables, and berries. That is where Juice Plus+ comes in! It is whole food nutrition from 25 different fruits, vegetables, grains and berries to help you bridge the gap between what you are currently getting and the 9 to 13 servings of fruits and vegetables you need DAILY to reduce the age-related diseases as well as improve quality of life as you age.

 

Juice Plus+ is the most thoroughly researched product in the world. We have 23 published medical studies showing that Juice Plus+ is bio- available (meaning it delivers key antioxidants that are absorbed by the body), supports a healthy immune system, reduces oxidative stress, assist in the recovery of oxidative stress due to intense exercise, helps protect your DNA, promotes cardiovascular wellness, helps with periodontal disease and improves your skins density and appearance!

 

We have been published in "Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise" 3 times! Along with The Journal of Nutrition, Journal of American College of Cardiology, Journal of the American College of Nutrition, British Journal of Nutrition, Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, Molecular Nutrition and Food Research, just to name a few!

 

We are official sponsors of the German, Austrian, and Swiss Olympic teams.

 

Alan and I started Bikram at age 50& 51 already having the nutrition piece of this equation down. Now we have the exercise piece in place so that at age 51 & 52 we feel better today than we have in years! The healing of old injuries & transformation in both our bodies is amazing.
