CC-March 9, 2010 - 9 Ways to Build a Powerful Immune System
________________________________________________________________________________
2 Minute Session Overview
The Session Overview below is provided as a courtesy to those who prefer to read than listen, yet on each call additional insights are given which round out the subject.
The Human Immune System
Every organ, gland, fluid, tissue and cell is tangently or directly involved in the activity of the human immune system.
Of particular importance are:
a. intestines
b. blood
c. bone marrow
d. liver
e. spleen
Your immune system is capable of manufacturing over 100 trillion different types of antibodies - and remember that configuration for the rest of your life. This mechanism provides you with natural immunity from disease.
Our job is not to medicate ourselves into oblivion, but instead to nourish and bolster the natural immune processes of the body.
This can be done in 9 basic ways:
1. Detoxify the colon with:
a. clay
b. humic substances
c. SBO's (Friendly Flora)
d. chloryphyl-rich superfoods
2. Chelate heavy metals with:
a. clay
b. humic substances
c. unaltered sea salts
d. seaweeds & algae
Note: The standard medical and naturopathic chelation methods are harmful, excessively expensive, more time consuming, and far less effective than the above.
3. Alkalize the body with chloryphyl-rich, nutrient
dense superfoods, seaweeds and alkaline water.
(Earth & Sea Greens or Pure Greens & Fiber).
For more on the subject of diet see my Nov 3, 2009 talk "OK, So What Foods CAN I Eat".)
4. Increase normal bile production. The bile encapsulates, and therefore neutralizes, viruses, bacteria, parasites, chemicals, heavy metals, etc.
Digestive Bitters activates the natural bile production mechanism of the liver - providing your body is already alkaline (7.0pH with saliva & urine tests).
5. Bolster your immune response capability with
"6 Hour Colostrum". This is particularly important if you were not breast fed within the first few hours of birth. Provides an abundance of immune factors and growth factors.
6. Take immune building herbs and clays daily as a preventative measure, then increase the dosages significantly at the very first sign of an immune compromise. The faster you respond, the shorter the life of the incident - since pathogens are able to multiply a million-fold within just a few hours.
(Immune Power)
(What about Golden Seal? Only take this for
1-3 days followed by a good Soil-Based
Organism (SBO) probiotic like our Friendly Flora).
7. Eliminate concentrated sweeteners like cane sugar, HFCS, agave, honey, zylitol, rice milk, and many others. They stress the blood sugar regulators, increase candida overgrowth, and impair your natural immune response capability. Replace with:
a. Licorice Root Powder.
b. Green Stevia Leaf Powder.
8. Improve the diet, eat alkaline - drop the acid
foods and drinks:
a. Grapefruit juice (especially if you are sick).
b. Coffee.
c. Tomatoes (especially cooked).
d. Chips and other fried foods.
e. Pasteurized dairy.
f. Eggs (to a minimum).
g. Nuts and nut butters.
h. Breads and pastries.
9. Eat more organic edible and medicinal mushrooms (naturally high in polysaccharides and beta-glucans):
a. Shiitaki.
b. Portabello/Crimini.
c. Reishi.
d. Chaga.
e. Maitaki.
f. Agaricus Blazei.
g. Cordyceps.
h. Lion's Mane.
Most of these will be in our new Adaptogen & Mushroom Blend (formerly Vitality)
Enjoy the simple gifts from Nature!
