Water or Coke
DATE: 20 Mar 2008, 3:05 pm / MOOD: Other

Water or Coke?

cid:003b01c87c22$ac6a2970$6400a8c0@VALUEDA4DE119D

WATER


#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population)

#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger.

#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as 3%.

#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.

#5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.


#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.


#8. Drinking 5 glas s es of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day?

COKE

cid:003d01c87c22$ac6a2970$6400a8c0@VALUEDA4DE119D



#1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove from the highway after a car accident.

#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.

#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola i nto the toilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour,
then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous China .

#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.


#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.

#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.

#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake.
Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.

#8... To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.


FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.

#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.

#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the trucks for about 20 years!

Now the question is, would you like a glass of water? or Coke?

Add a BLAST of flavor and antioxidant power to your water.
DATE: 16 Mar 2008, 8:53 pm / MOOD: Full of life

Add a BLAST of flavor and antioxidant power to your water.

bottleXooma Worldwide’s premier product, Xtreme X2O, is one of the most powerful products ever seen in the beverage industry. Just one sachet can transform your water into a supercharged health and fitness beverage. By adding Xtreme X2O to your water, you begin to hydrate your body at the cellular level, provide the vital minerals and electrolytes your body needs daily, and give yourself a health promoting “alkalinity boost” to counteract the acidic damage caused by today’s fast-paced lifestyles.

If you’re already using Xooma’s Xtreme X2O in your water, chances are you’re already familiar with the powerful health and fitness benefits this unique product provides. And while Xtreme X2O makes your water taste cleaner and fresher, it doesn’t provide any additional flavor. So, your “transformed water” (using Xtreme X2O) always tastes clean and fresh, but it still tastes like…water.

 

 

The Problem:

If you’re like many people in today’s society, you probably drink water because you know how important it is for your long-wateragainterm health and well-being. If you’re one of the people joining this fast growing trend of “water drinkers” around the world there’s a good chance you’re doing it mostly for the health benefits rather than the actual taste of water. Let’s face it…many health-conscious people will quickly admit they’ve simply “learned to like water.”

If you’re one of the many people around the world who still haven’t joined this fast growing population of “water drinkers” it’s probably because you just “don’t like the taste of water.” If so, who could blame you? After all, there are hundreds of flavored beverage choices on the market today – all of which offer more flavor and taste than just plain water.

 

 

The Bigger Problem:

Drinking water is critical for your good health and most people don’t drink nearly enough. Our original product, Xtreme X2O transforms wateryour water into a powerful health beverage designed to hydrate, mineralize, and revitalize your body. But if you’re not drinking water (or enough water) simply because you don’t like the taste, you’re risking your health every day. In addition, you’re missing out on the benefits of a product like Xtreme X2O.

It gets worse…

Instead of water, many people choose the popular “sports” & “energy” beverages on the market which are typically loaded with things like sugar, artificial sweeteners, artificial colors, and chemical preservatives. These beverages can NOT take the place of water and rarely, if ever, offer any real health benefits.

 

The Solution:

Faced with the reality that a large population of people around the world (especially children & teens) would only drink more water if it “tasted good,” we set out to create the worlds first 100% natural water flavoring product. By doing this, we would not only give people any easy and enjoyable way to drink more water but we’d also make it easy for them to enjoy the numerous health benefits our original product – Xtreme X2O.

sep

  • 100% Natural.

  • No sugar. No artificial sweeteners, flavors, colors, or preservatives.

  • Zero calories. Zero carbohydrates.

  • No glycemic value. Won’t raise sugar levels or trigger fat storage in the body.

  • With a minimum ORAC rating of 3000, just 2 packets of X2O Blast delivers the antioxidant power of approximately 10 servings of fruits and vegetables

  • 110% of the Recommended Daily Allowance of Vitamin C (per serving).

web

X2O BLAST comes in small “pocket sized” packets (2.6 grams each). They’re easy to carry and ready to use when you are.

X2O BLAST allows you to choose your own flavor strength. For full/ strong flavor, you can use the entire packet in 24 oz. (or 750 mL) of water. For a lighter flavor, we suggest using half of the packet in 24 oz. (or 750 mL) of water.

X2O BLAST transforms plain water with a “blast” of flavor while it provides incredible antioxidant protection for your body. This 100% natural, zero calorie beverage allows you to enjoy the health benefits of drinking water by simply making your water taste great. Best of all, you can dramatically increase the health benefits of your water by adding an Xtreme X2O sachet with your X2O BLAST.

graph

X2O BLAST is the perfect beverage choice for children and teens. Instead of sugary drinks which contribute to overweight problems and artificially sweetened drinks loaded with chemicals, parents can now give their children a great tasting beverage that’s 100% natural and healthy! X2O BLAST has all the taste kids crave with none of the guilt or worry for Moms and Dads.

Look how X2O BLAST compares to popular beverages marketed
to children and teens.

“Healthy” Never Tasted This Good!

If you’re serious about your health or your family’s health, Xtreme X2O and X2O BLAST are the right beverage choices. Considering all the unhealthy beverage choices in the marketplace today, X2O BLAST just might be the only product that promotes good health without sacrificing great taste.

How to SAVE MONEY with MetaboWize
DATE: 16 Mar 2008, 8:49 pm / MOOD: Full of life

How to SAVE MONEY with MetaboWize
By Ken Marsh

Can MetaboWize really save you money? According to numerous MetaboWize product users, the answer is “yes!”

Answer this question: How much money do you spend on food and beverages every month?

If you’re like most people, you probably can’t answer that question without some serious thought and a good calculator. So, let me help you get a little closer to determining your monthly food & beverage expenses by using an example of one person’s daily food and beverage consumption prior to starting the MetaboWize system.

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of speaking to a new Xooma Member named Sandra who wanted to lose weight but wasn’t sure she could “afford” the MetaboWize System. So, I decided to do an “experiment” and asked Sandra a very important question…

If I could show you how to use the MetaboWize system for FREE every month, would you be interested in getting started?”

Obviously, Sandra was not only interested, she was now excited.

So, I proceeded to ask Sandra about her daily food and beverage consumption. I started with the first thing she ate and/or drank in the morning, other meals and snacks during the day, all the way down to the last thing she ate or drank before she went to bed.

Here’s a summary of Sandra’s daily food and beverage expenses before MetaboWize:

Breakfast:

  • Her favorite coffee drink from Starbucks: $4.35

  • Muffin or bagel: $1.00

Lunch:

  • “Fast food” or restaurant meal with an iced tea or diet soda: $7.40 (average)

Snack:

  • Bottled water & chips or other snack from the office vending machine: $3.00

Dinner:

  • “Take-out” or pre-packaged meal with an iced tea or diet soda: $6.15 (average)

When we did the math, we discovered that Sandra was spending approximately $22.00 per day on her food and beverage choices. That’s an average of $660.00 per month.

The real problem was that Sandra was gaining weight and couldn’t see how she could fit the MetaboWize system into her budget. That’s when I showed her how she could follow the system and literally save enough money every month to pay for the cost of the entire program. In essence, getting the MetaboWize System for FREE!

For purposes of the following example I made the suggestion that Sandra purchase the "MetaboWize Advanced Package" (1- AM Formula, 1- PM Formula, & 2 canisters (60 servings) of the Protein-Fiber Shake). In this special package the cost of the AM & PM Formulas are $30 each and the Protein-Fiber shake canisters are reduced to just $44.98 each ($1.49 per shake). I also suggested that she purchase 2 packages (60 sachets) of X2O (or 1 package of X2O and 1 package of X2O BLAST if she also wanted a flavored beverage). Her total cost for all these Xooma products was just $199.95 ($149 for the metabowize package and $50 for X2O).

Here’s a summary of Sandra’s daily food and beverage expenses on the MetaboWize System:

Breakfast/ Meal 1:

  • MetaboWize AM Formula (2 capsules): $1.00

  • 2 eggs, 2 slices of turkey bacon, ½ grapefruit: $2.50

  • 1 X2O sachet added to water: .83 cents

Meal 2:

  • MetaboWize Protein-Fiber shake: $1.49

Lunch/ Meal 3:

  • Purified water with a turkey wrap or salad with chicken breast: $4.75

Meal 4:

  • MetaboWize Protein-Fiber shake with some nuts or berries: $2.00

Dinner/ Meal 5:

  • Home cooked stir-fry with vegetables and beef or chicken: $5.00

  • 1 X2O sachet (or X2O BLAST) added to water: .83 cents

  • MetaboWize PM Formula (2 capsules) ½ hour before bed: $1.00

When we did the math here, we discovered that Sandra would get a total of 5 healthy meals & daily supplements for just $19.40 per day with the MetaboWize system. So, not only was Sandra able to afford the MetaboWize system, she had some money left over to treat herself to a few nice dinners and desserts as her reward for sticking with the MetaboWize plan throughout the week.

Again, Sandra spent no additional money to purchase the MetaboWize System. She simply exchanged the money she was spending on other foods and beverages for the MetaboWize System products along with healthier food and beverage choices.

This is NOT a hypothetical example. The savings are real. In fact, Xooma Members from around the world have reported to us that they’ve actually seen their monthly grocery bills go down significantly with the MetaboWize System since they are no longer buying the typical boxed, canned, and processed foods they used to buy. Furthermore, they’re not spending their hard earned money eating lunches and dinners from fast food restaurants. Best of all, in addition to saving money, they are melting away their unwanted body fat and feeling great.

Xooma’s definition of “fast food”…

In today’s fast paced world, “eating on the run” has become a daily habit for the majority of people. Sadly, most people end up eating high fat, high calorie, low nutrition “fast food” meals because they are quick, convenient…and cheap. However, thanks to MetaboWize, you can now have low fat, low calorie, high nutrition “meals” that are quick, convenient…that cost less than most of those unhealthy fast food meals.

The choice is yours:


Calories

Total fat

Sodium

26g

1190mg

40g

29g

MetaboWize Protein-Fiber Shake

120

9

1g

90mg

5g

21g

In the example we used with Sandra, the cost each MetaboWize Protein/ Fiber shake was just $1.49 (mixed with water). Not only is that less than the cost of a popular fast food hamburger, you can prepare a MetaboWize shake in less than 2 minutes. It’s quick, convenient, and best of all….it’s HEALTHY!

As a Xooma Member, your can benefit from the MetaboWize System and X2O for as little as $4.17 per day. ($125 per month for the MetaboWize Core Package and 30 sachets of X2O) Compare that price to one of those high fat, high calorie, low nutrition “value meals” from your local fast food restaurant and you’ll see how affordable it is to give your body the “fuel” it needs to maximize your metabolism, burn excess body fat, and feel terrific!

And don't forget, if you sponsor just 4 people who duplicate this example, you'll earn $100-$125 per month in commissions and virtually cover the cost of your own products!

The REAL reason I wrote this article…

The information here was my way of showing you just how easy and affordable it is to utilize the MetaboWize System and X2O in your daily life. But, the real reason I wrote this article is so that YOU could use this information (you can even use this exact article) to show other people how to get their own MetaboWize products for “FREE” every month with the money they’ll save by following the system.

Imagine that…you can now show countless numbers of people how to lose weight & excess body fat virtually for free by simply transferring their spending from unhealthy choices to MetaboWize choices. It couldn’t be any easier!

Know anyone who wants to lose weight for free?

Baby Boomer Fitness
By Tommie Weber

What is the point?

Would you like to feel better and look better?

Would you like to be active and stay younger longer?

Aging is a learned response, it’s not inevitable.

We don’t want disease to over take and take over.

There is a fountain of youth called exercise and proper nutrition.

Water and Air are the basis of health not Advil, Nexium and Valium.

 

After so many years of running our bodies to the point of exhaustion and for some, to extinction, why bother with fitness?  If you’re not dead and you’d like to be younger internally, read on.

If you think your life needs to change and slow down simply because you’ve turned fifty you’re mistaken.  This is the beginning of a new adventure. The kids are growing and going.   We are suppose to be getting a little more freedom and should be looking forward to this new stage.  So why is it so frightening to so many of us?

The majority of small businesses being opened in the United States are opened by people over fifty.  It is a magical time of life full of freedom and exploration.  Why not spend it being well and active? Why not pay attention to the God given temple we walk around in?  Why not look in the mirror and take stock of all the damage we’ve done and begin again? I did. 

I looked in the mirror several months ago after a lifetime of fitness and health activities and smiled.  I didn’t smile because I was looking good; I smiled because the chubby little man I saw staring back at me wasn’t who I am.  It was who I allowed myself to become.  That chubby guy was about to undergo a reclamation project along the lines of what I preached and expected of others.  Now, thirty pounds lighter, able to bike fifty miles comfortably with younger stronger legs, lower pressure and more muscle I still have a ways to go.  So, take a look, take stock and take control of your life, your health and your expectations.  You have to want and expect to succeed.  You also have to be creative and make it for and about you and your needs. 

Over ninety percent of individuals, especially, “Baby Boomers,” have some part of a slow metabolism.  We aren’t the ones who can eat cookies, cake and ice cream and never store an ounce of fat. It is what it is folks and we need to work with what we have not what someone else expects us to accomplish. 

Never exercise to exhaustion.  You often won’t come back and your body won’t like you.  It will let you know all the damage you are inflicting.  Forget the “No pain, no gain nonsense.” Work within your ability to the point of relaxation and come back again and again.  Soon you will be leaner, stronger and eager to continue your own transformation. 


We have the ability to turn back the clock on aging.  We can be younger biologically and we can age more gracefully.  I do not want to “watch” my grandchildren swim and surf, I want to swim and surf with them.  I do not want to slow down and dodder around waiting to be medicated in order to breathe, stand or go to the bathroom.  I don’t want to take foreign substances in ever increasing amounts until I no longer know or care where I am.  This is not living and it isn’t the way it is suppose to be.

Squirrels climb trees to the last day of their lives.  I never noticed one wearing a diaper or an oxygen tank.  It is medical fact that a sedentary sixty year old who starts exercising and paying attention to what they are putting in their mouth can make themselves years and sometimes decades younger.

Today it is estimated that 10,000 people a day turn sixty.  One turns fifty every seven seconds.  What does this all mean?  For most, instead of it being a time of exploration and activity it is a time of fear and frustration.  There are many reasons and one of the primary ones is most people are afraid they will out-live their savings.  The answer is to stay younger, work a little, play more and add to your savings.  And these are all things you can accomplish with Xooma’s products and business plan.

We have become a society which looks to others to fix our problems.  It doesn’t matter whether they are socio-economic, physical, emotional or even spiritual, for some reason we look to others to solve them. The people are the most powerful giving force on this planet and it is time we take a look at ourselves and look to care for our society.  In order to do this we need to examine what we’ve done or not done and start to change.

Oh, there it is the dreaded “C” word.  Not cancer or car insurance.  CHANGE.  In this case it is relevant to look back and examine our mistakes because the past is truly a school. We can learn from it and change our present and also our view to the future. We can’t change the past but we can learn from it.  If we combine all the technological advances over the past seven decades and add some simple wisdom, CHANGE is not so difficult because some of it involves changing back.  Self reliance, self awareness, compassion, kindness, faith and belief in ourselves never go out of style.  We can choose to look forward in fear or look to the future with vitality and hope.  We can change the future for others just by correcting our own mistakes. 

Society actually programs us to get old.  We stop moving, climbing dancing, skating and skiing because we might injure ourselves.  I think we should start to embrace the bumps and bruises of living a full life more and the heart operations less.

Growing old is not a learned response and sixty should be “middle age.”  If we practice some simple precepts we might solve a whole host of problems all at once.

I am fifty-seven years old.  I have been working since I was eleven.  I have never had health insurance.  I do not go to the doctor to look for things that are wrong.  I figure I didn’t look when I was fourteen why should I look now. This thinking is not for everyone.  It is my choice and perhaps I am too stubborn. There is a huge value in all we have learned about our bodies through medical research and I would be a fool if I was in an accident not to avail myself or my family of what is now known. It should be my choice. I don’t want the media, the government and the pharmaceutical companies deciding what is best for me or my family.  I don’t want them deciding what I can or cannot eat. Why drink an energy drink when science shows exercise and water will give you more energy than you need?  Why take an anti-depressant when science shows water and exercise are more effective for depression and anxiety than the three leading drugs? Drugs are not food and they are not natural.  They should only be used as a last resort not as a first response. 

So the choice is ours.  We can get old and feeble or we can get old and active.  To me there is no choice.  I don’t ever want to see that chubby man staring back at me from the mirror again. 

My final thoughts....Don’t get down on yourself. Don’t quit. Give yourself a break.  Life is supposed to be fun. Laugh at yourself; it is a workout for your stomach. Smile at your own humanity and start over.  Do it for you first and those you love second.  In the end, we all will be enriched by your effort.

Xtreme X2O
DATE: 16 Mar 2008, 6:29 pm / MOOD: Full of life

Questions and Answers: Xooma Worldwide's Xtreme X2O


  • What is X2O?
    X2O is a sachet ('teabag') filled with Calcium, Magnesium and 70+ essential trace minerals that you simply drop into a bottle of regular water to transform it in to a healthful and revitalizing 'Super Beverage'.
  • Do I need X2O ?
    EVERY body (young and old alike) needs X2O. Why? Today's food supply is nutritionally deficient. Some say 'bankrupt'. Most everyone knows this already. Besides that though, people generally consume way too many ACIDIC foods and beverages. Over consumption of Acidic foods and beverages creates an environment inside the body where illness and diseases can thrive. (Acidosis)

Foods/beverages are classified as either ACIDIC, NEUTRAL or ALKALINE. Ideally, one should consume 70-80% Alkaline foods and beverages daily to 20-30% Acidic. The average person today is consuming the complete opposite of the ideal. X2O helps to contradict serious dietary imbalances, which are all too common today.

  • What does X2O do?
    X2O is the 'easy way' to not only add more essential nutrition to your body, but to add more alkalinity to your diet as well. When you add X2O to regular water, its' pH is raised from approximately 7 to 9.9 +. X2O truly is an ideal "Fuel for your body". It hydrates, mineralizes, alkalizes and revitalizes like nothing else can. X2O is 'Foundational' to good health and should be regularly consumed thru-out one's lifetime.
  • How do I consume X2O?
    With your first $25 order, you will receive a Xooma Lexan Plastic Sports Bottle. Developing the habit of never being without it and simply sipping on X2O throughout the day and night is a goal worthy of pursuit. Under normal conditions, the average person can only absorb approximately three ounces of water every half hour. It is logical to assume then that a sip here and there is the best way to consume X2O. (depending on your size, metabolism, physical activity and temperature of your environment, experts tend to agree that most people need between 2 and 3 quarts of water per day).
  • How much X2O do I add to my water?
    That depends on your state of health. ONE X2O sachet per day is the very minimum in 18-24 ozs of clean water if you are already in excellent health. The recommended 'maintenance dose' for most people is two sachets a day. For those wanting to aggressively affect serious degenerative diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, gout, etc, 6-10+ sachets a day may be taken. (ie.: 20 ozs water with 2 sachets, three times daily) "Severe issues may require more aggressiveness."**
  • What do most people report feeling after drinking X2O?
    Acidic aggrevated conditions are often generally relieved quickly, ie: joint pain, acid reflux disease, wounds heal faster, more stamina and improved mental clarity is reported, etc. People often say they feel 'calmer' and generally 'more satisfied for longer periods of time' as well. Your body uses less energy to process alkaline foods and beverages, so obviously more energy is left over for you to notice and enjoy. However, there will be some who may notice little or even feel more tired and listless to begin with, especially those who change their diet in addition to drinking X2O. Just because a person stops 'beating themselves up' with unhealthy acidic foods and drinks does not mean that they are still not 'beat up'. There can be a detoxification/healing period that can last from 2 weeks to 3O days, depending on the individual. Good health and longevity is really more about 'knowing' than it is 'feeling' anyway.

Do you think there is a market for water? We think so!

Children’s Fitness/ Wellness
Part Two
By Tommie Weber

We wash our face, hands, hair and nails with soap and water.  Yet we let the media convince us and our children that we should wash our heart, lungs, liver, kidneys and pancreas, with energy drinks, soda, ice tea and fruit drinks and coffee.

Our kids are over-weight, sick more often and have many more serious diseases than ever before in history.  Diabetes should not be normal in a twelve year old.  Cancer, asthma, and obesity should not be normal in children under five.  Children under five are not depressed no matter what the social worker, or child psychologist suggests.  I never heard a two year old discussing his mood with friends.  Imagine a couple toddlers sitting around complaining to friends saying something like:
     
“Man, I’m having a bad day. My bottle is empty, I have a load in my pants, my mom went to the store and I can’t find my new box of Huggies.  Do you have any Valium?”

It just doesn’t happen.

One of the fastest growing segments of our population being introduced to anti-depressant drugs are children under five. This same segment is not taught to eat well, play hard, and drink water.  Couldn’t it be this simple?  Why don’t we try water and some fresh vegetables and exercise before drugging our kids into oblivion with drugs provided by an educational system gone mad? I think we need to take more interest in what is happening in our children’s lives.  I think we need to rebuild family structure and integrity.  We need to take back responsibility for our own health and that of our kids.  Our children are not possessions like our car or our lawn mower.  When something is wrong we can’t just drop them off at the child service station for repair.  We need to examine what we did or are doing to cause or exacerbate the problem.  We have to stop taking our kids to other people to fix them. To prevent most major problems first try good food, water, exercise, love and a chance at a good education. Eliminate some of the poisons we put into their mouths.  When a large percent of what they eat is junk food, we are doing something wrong.  We have allowed their lives, their health, and their education to get out of balance.
           
The equations are simple:  Two boxes of donuts and one book = no balance.  Four hours of computer games, television, a pizza with two sodas and no physical activity = no balance. 
         
We have lost sight of the fact that this body our children walk around in is the only one they get in this life. The sad fact is we are probably the first generation in history that will leave our children worse off than we were.  We will also be the first generation to watch more and more of our children die before we do. And raising money for all the “walks for the cure” on the planet has not changed this. The health crisis is growing and our children are the worse off because of it.  We need to celebrate good health.  We need to fund wellness programs, before diseases occur.  We need to embrace prevention. 
        
The first order of business in this fight is to force our politicians out of the drug business, and get them out of pockets of large corporate lobbyists.  In the U.S today, with a “say no to drugs” policy, we “drug” four and five year olds with highly addictive prescriptions everyday.  We say it is for their own good, but who benefits?  The only drugs they tell us to say no to are Crack, Cocaine and Heroin.  Nicotine is one the most addictive and deadly drugs, yet it is legal and kills eight times as many people as all three of the illegal substances combined. 

“Tylenol poisoning” is a significant cause of liver death in the U.S.  How many of our children take it on a regular basis?  It is time for us to wake up.  Fitness in children isn’t optional.  It is vitally important for their health and for their ability to sustain that health for years to come.  We have proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that drug interventions are dangerous to say the least.  Drugs are not staples of life.  Yet, food, air, water, sunshine, exercise, and rest are vital. None of these has a toxicology report attached to them.  It is past time we started thinking about that. 
      
I hope you take a look and make the decision for you and your children to live longer healthier lives through education, exercise and common sense applications.  

Did you know?
                                                                                                                       
1] The leading cause of death among children three to thirteen years of age is cancer – and cancer loves sugar according to medical research.

2] The average can of soda has over ten tea spoons of sugar in it.

3] Ingesting too much sugar can affect mood, focus, attention span and hyper-activity.
   
4] Type two Diabetes is epidemic in children eleven years of age through sixteen.  (It is preventable.)

 

Remember...
                                “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

Weight Loss Water

If you’re like most people, you would love to lose some weight or excess body fat, but for whatever reason it hasn’t been that easy. Most people have tried one fad diet after another only to find that even if they lose some weight, their results don’t last very long. The fact is that obesity is becoming a worldwide epidemic.

What if there really was a solution? A simple place to start that would work for just about anyone. A solution that has been on our planet since the beginning of time.

So, what’s the solution? WATER. But not just any water. We’re talking about mineral rich, alkaline water that effectively hydrates your body.

Water, as it was originally found on earth was different. It was fresh and pure. It came from natural springs, fresh mountain streams and was loaded with important trace minerals that are essential to our health. Unfortunately, the water coming out of our facets today is no longer that way. And while more and more people are reaching for bottled water these days, the problem is that in most cases, bottled water is simply recycled and filtered municipal tap water.

Thanks to a breakthrough discovery in natural science, Xooma Worldwide gives you a way to transform ordinary water into a powerful beverage that can help you lose weight and shed excess body fat. We call this revolutionary product “X2O.”

X2O supports your weight loss efforts in 3 ways…

1. X2O helps to hydrate your body at the cellular level. Think about it. You’ve probably never seen a weight loss system or diet program that didn’t recommend that you drink more water. Why? Because your body needs to be properly hydrated in order for you to be successful in your weight loss goals.

The problem is that most tap water and bottled water is not effective for optimal hydration. But, when you add just one sachet of X2O to that water, it provides improved hydration by allowing the water to be more easily absorbed by your body. In addition, X2O delivers vital electrolytes into your water that improve your overall hydration at the cellular level.

2. X2O provides ionic trace minerals which support healthy weight management. Ensuring that your body gets the optimal level of minerals it needs is a vital component to not only being healthy but also to optimize your weight loss goals. This is because minerals play a key role in important bodily functions that relate to your metabolism.

Minerals have a direct effect on appetite control, sugar balance, food cravings, adrenal and thyroid hormone functions, and the use of fat for energy in your body. X2O sachets contain an all-natural mineral complex that releases beneficial trace minerals into the water which can be easily absorbed and used to support your body’s metabolic functions.

3. X2O gives your water a healthy alkaline boost which helps burn fat. If you want to shed excess body fat with less effort it is important to maintain a healthy pH balance in the body. This is the “hidden secret” to continual fat loss that keeps most people from getting the results they desire.

Unfortunately, most of the foods and beverages we consume on a daily basis cause our bodies to become acidic. And the more acidic we are, the more likely we are to store fat. But, with just one sachet of X2O, you can transform your water into a highly alkaline beverage that helps to neutralize acid in your body and trigger the release of excess fat.

In addition to promoting healthy weight loss, X2O also provides you body with a host of other incredible health benefits.

DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH

It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven a its value. We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases:
Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.
METHOD OF TREATMENT
1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water
2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minutes
3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours
5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and

     gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.
6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.

7. Work to get in 10 cups a day.
The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/ reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure - 30 days
2. Gastric - 10 days
3. Diabetes - 30 days
4. Constipation - 10 days
5. Cancer - 180 days
6. TB - 90 days
7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwards - daily.
This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times.
It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life.
Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.
This makes sense .... the Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals ..not cold water. maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.
Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks: Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting.
Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.
Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.
60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.
Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive...
A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to everyone they know, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.
**Please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about..
GOD BLESS!

READ ABOUT SHELLY---WAY TO GO SHELLY

 

Hello Friends, I joined Xooma, on 11-01-07, & started taking the X20. Back then on 12-01-07, I was 141 pounds,  and was a size 13/14 but really a 14! Started the Metabowize with my X2O Water, & since I started the products I have lost 1 pound a week, and feel so much better,  Now today 12-11-07  I am in a size 11 & still feeling Great!  I was born breech and grew-up with Scoliosis, As I became a Woman Was also in so much pain, I thought  this was the way my life was going to be forever, I was a 4 to 5 pot coffee drinker, and was told by Doctors I now had Osteoporosis, I was put on 70mg. Of a weekly tablet / pill, but as the years went by, I was so tried of taking tablet/pills, and feeling like someone I wasn't, I stopped, and started looking for something else to help.  Met a Great Lady Robin Lavoie, Here from Adland, That is now my Best Friend, and talk to daily, that had invited me to take a look at her website.  Not to say I jumped at it,  NO! NO!  It took me some time before I desided to give it a try.  That was when I found X2O Water!    When I started X20 Water, I had flu like symptoms, and thought I should just get off of everything, but to my surprise, it was over as fast as it came!  My body was detoxing itself, and that was one of the symptoms, I know now had to happen in my case.  I now drink 1 cup, if that of coffee a day!  I was one who never drink water,  I should of known this with my back ground in Health & working in a Hospital back in the 60's,  I knew that water was one of the most important things our bodies needed to keep us going, but like so much of our water back then, there was so much in it that could  do more damage to us then good, maybe in the back of my head I knew this?   I think that is why I stayed away from it, but Now with X2O "I AM A WATER DRINKER",  and have found out it has done Great thing to and in my body!  I am a great believer of meditation along with everything else I do!  I also with my Husband did T'ai Chi, and  stertching to control my pain back then, which Now is very little, and doing this together I can say, I don't think I will ever be without X20 Water!  I would like to thank Robin Lavoie, for inviting me to take a look at this product.  I am going on 59 years old this June, and when I hit 50 I had a curve in my spine  that came from my Scoliosis, in the shape of the letter (S) THAT WAS MORE TO THE RIGHT OF MY BODY, and I was in so much Pain from it and it was very noticeable.  I have been to see many Doctors about this,  In the year 2000 we moved out of the City, and now I have One Doctor that I  started going to at that time, when I couldn't take the pain.  Then went to my Doctor on 11-26-07 while being on the X20 Water, he said that he has noticed my curve isn't as noticeable, That was when I knew in my heart it will be getting better as time goes by!  My Husband has also said the same thing!  Just to say to those of you with Scoliosis and have lived with this illness, also with the Pain that comes from it,  There is help out there, you just have to know where to look for it, and know it will help you to live OVER 50%Pain Free!  You may have  better days then bad days,  I know this, because I did when I started my X20, but I can say "NOW!"  there are so many more Better days for myself!  Must say to you, This isn't a quit fix for Scoliosis, It takes time for the X2O Water to start doing what it needs to do, and is a good product that can help you deal with your Pain, and for many like myself, Great results that will come in time from it.   We all have to believe in ourselves, and do alot of checking around to know the product is safe to use, as well as look into the products we take.

.....UP-DATE....It is now 02-04-08.  I am still taking the X20 Water with the Metabowize, Now 138 pounds, and size 10!  I Now have noties two more Great things happening to my body!  Back in the 80's I noticed a wart that was giving me pain, and had it taken off more then two times, but always came back, so I just lived with it, now that I am on the X20 I have noticed it is getting smaller, and does not hurt me.  I ask my Husband to take a look , and let me know if he thought it was getting smaller, and he said YES!  It was hard like all warts, but now it is soft.  I also had Fungus on my right big toe nail, That Fungus NAIL like so many of us have, it is in and on  all over the nail, started to look very bad, and it  also hurt at times. When it became large and thick I went to have it removed. I heard before, and the Doctor said it came from a Fungus which I had already knew about and that was in my body, and wanted to have me take a Med. that would of worked from the inside out , and would of cost me over $300.00, at that time.   I ask the Doctor if it would do the job, and would the Fungus come back?  He said there was a 50 / 50 chance it would. So I diesided not to take the Meds. and live with it just like every thing else.  To my surprize the X20 Water was working from the inside out on me!  My Fungus toe nail never looked as good!   I now can wear open toe shoes!  The X20 took care of my Fungus Toe!
