The MASTER CLEANSE

Master Cleanse
is a 10-day fast that is used for detox and weight loss purposes.
Although the Master Cleanse is often referred to as a fast, it's not really a complete fast, in that up to 1,300 calories are consumed each day in the form of sugars from the ingredients in the beverage that Master Cleansers prepare and drink.

Vitamin supplements no substitute for whole foods

In today's news, a study has shown that " The largest study ever of multivitamin use in older women found the pills did nothing to prevent common cancers or heart disease.

The eight-year study in 161,808 postmenopausal women echoes recent disappointing vitamin studies in men."

Vegan Athletes
Check out this list of vegan athletes I just found on the web. Its on the OrganicAthlete.org website.

We will teach you the nutritional facts and dispel the common myths about vegan diets. We will show how to take simple steps to incorporating healthy into your lifestyle. We will inspire you with examples of athletes of ages, abilities, and sports who thrive with their compassionate, healthy lifestyle."

A New Book: The China Study
The idea of eating Plant-Based Foods for good health has been known for many centuries.

In the The China Study: The Most Comprehensive Study of Nutrition Ever Conducted and the Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-term Health, Dr. Campbell, cites writings from Socrates, which paraphrased say that "consuming animal foods will lead to a luxurious city of sickness and disease, where lawyers and doctors will become the norm"

Plato, also said, "We will eat animals at our own peril."
Even Hippocrates, the Father of Western Medicine said that a plant based diet was the way to prevent and treat disease.
Campbell goes on to describe more historical knowledge of diet being an extremely important factor in disease prevention and overall good health. And he also asks how could we as a society forget or suppress these facts?

Health Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar
Body  Fat Solution Book Cover
Apple Cider Vinegar in its natural undistilled form is a powerful healing and cleansing agent. Hippocrates found as early as 400 B.C. that it has antibiotic and antiseptic properties that fight germs and bacteria. It was sold as a health drink on the streets in the Middle Ages and Samurai Warriors drank it before battle to increase their strength & power.

There is also more recent scientific evidence of Apple Cider Vinegar Benefits. It has been found to relieve muscle pain after exercise, balance pH levels, sooth sore throats, and normalize weight.
