Here are some testimonials of Isotonix OPC-3.

What is "Isotonic"? How are Isotonix supplements delivered to the body efficiently?

I talked about my experience of Isotonix OPC-3; my foggy thought was gone and more stamina gained after the short period of two months.  However, there seem to be many more benefits that you may receive from this supplement. I have heard a lot of stories from real people who have used Isotonix OPC-3.  Some people could get rid of severe allergies after continuous usage of OPC-3 for one or two years.  A good friend of my mine who introduced me Isotonix OPC-3 could reduce palpitation she used to have while she was under stressful conditions. Her blood pressure also went back to normal. People who used to back pain are now pain free with OPC-3.      

So, what is Isotonix OPC-3? According to Isotonix brand by Market America;

Isotonic means “same pressure,” bears the same chemical resemblance of the body’s blood, plasma and tears.  All fluids in the body have a certain concentration, referred to as osmotic pressure.  The body’s common osmotic pressure, which is isotonic, allows a consistent maintenance of the body tissues.  In order for a substance to be absorbed and used in the body’s metabolism, it must be transported in an isotonic state.

Isotnoix dietary supplements are delivered in a isotonic solution.  This means that the body has less work to do to in obtaining maximum absorption.  The isotonic state of the suspension allows nutrients to pass directly into the small intestine and be rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream.  With Isotonix products, little nutritive value is lost, making the absorption of nutrients highly efficient while delivering maximum results.

In order for the supplement to be absorbed efficiently, it has to be taken on an empty stomach  as I mentioned before. Then, wait for several minutes until you eat or drink. 

It tastes good and makes you feel great. I highly recommend this product to anybody.

Isotonix OPC-3 Makes you Feel Good - Part 3, What is "Healing Crisis"?

Continuing from the previous blog.

The third stage of the "Healing Crisis" is activation of energy flow and blood circulation. Nutritional Therapy helps the circulation of blood and the flow of energy.  When it unblocks certain stagnation of some body areas, especially some formerly injured parts, muscle pain will resurface.  For people who are having pain, the pain will be more severe.  This kind of aching pain will last for a few days  For people having severe problems, the pain will last even longer.  Then, the pain will cease by itself naturally.

The fourth stage is regeneration of cells.  The main purpose of Nutritional Therapy is to use the natural human healing power to develop the regeneration function of the cells.  These regenerated new cells will replace and repair any damaged part of our organs.  During this process, the body consumes a large amount of nutrition and oxygen.  Therefore we will feel tried and sleepy.

Ah! I see, that's what I had been experiencing, I thought.  My friend had given me the information before I started taking OPC-3, but I didn't pay attention much to the piece of paper. Instead, I thought Isotoix OPC-3 was not for me. I felt tired and did not have energies that would last all day. Contrarily, I was tired from the morning all day.  But the body was just trying to recover from some internal injuries.

Taking supplement first in the morning has became my daily routine.  Like brushing your teeth everyday, it is something that you never miss to do.  After the healing crisis was gone in less than a week, I didn't feel any changes from taking the supplement, but I just kept taking because it has became one of my daily routines.  Then, amazing things started to happen about 2 months after I began this holistic approach.

The results of taking Isotonix OPC-3 will be discussed in the next blog.

Isotonix OPC-3 Makes you Feel Good - Part 2, "Healing Crisis"? Pain and Tiredness

After the 7 day detox, I felt lighter and clean.  The biggest change was that I didn't need to drink coffee in the morning. Then, I started to drink Isotonix OPC-3. It has to be consumed in an empty stomach to maximize its absortion to the body.  It is recommended not to eat anything a couple of hours before taking OPC-3. The easiest time to drink OPC-3 is as soon as you get up in the morning.

You mix with a full cap of powdered OPC-3 and 2fl oz water. I started with double dosage so it was 2 capfull OPC-3 and 4 fl oz water. After 1 week or so, I started to feel so tired and did not have much energy. This lasted about a week. I told my friend about this strange feeling. And she told me it is "Healing Crisis" that happens when your take nutritional supplement.

The healing crisis has 4 stages. 
The first one is called "Honey Moon Period" when you feel more energy, increased strength, looging good and better complexions.

The second stage is called Detoxification Period." We usually have a lot of accumulated toxins coming from food, environment, lack of exercise, and stress.  The accumulation of toxin will lead to chronic diseases and it is the main cause of the formation of free radicals.  According to the study of Dr. Robert A. Floyd from the Oklahoma Medical Research Center, if the body creates too many free radicals it will be harmful to the body.  These harmful substances have been proven to the main causes of cancers, degeneration, stroke and cardiovascular diseases.

Some toxins will lead to the formation of stone.  If the toxins stay in the uterus, it will cause the formation of tumors in the uterus and worsen into cancer.  Therefore, the removal of toxins is the first step of curing diseases.  The American food therapist, Dr. Henry G Bieler said, "I don't use medicine, because I understand the principle of the old traditional cure.  Nature will use the natural immune system of the body to do the real cure."  If you want to get your healthy body back, you need to remove these toxins.  Therefore, in building the "house of health", the first cornerstone is the elimination of toxin. 

In order to remove the acidic waste and toxin out of the body, so as to return the body fulid back to lightly alkaline (PH-7.35-7.45), usually the following will happen: increase in frequency of urination, darkening of urine, their period owill usually be prolonged and lose more blood.  Others will have abnormal temporarily cease of menstruation.

I will talk about the last two stages in the next blog.  

Isotonix OPC-3 Makes you Feel Good - Part 1

One year ago, I started taking Isotoix OPC-3, since I was simply recommended by a friend. I thought I didn't have any medical challenges and I was pretty healthy. Anyway, I wanted to try the supplement to maximize my health.  


Before taking any supplements, I was recommended to detoxify my body so that my system will be clean and will be ready to absorb good nutritions.  So, I started detox with NutriClean 7 Day Cleansing System. During the 7 days, I could not have any junk food, sweets or even coffee.  I had to consume a lot of vegetables, fruits, whole grain foods, and good source of proteins as regular meals.  I usually eat those healthy foods, but the difficult part was to not eat ANY junk food or sweets and to not drink ANY coffee!  


In the first day or two, I was about to go crazy mostly for not taking any coffee even in the morning nor chocolates at night! But after that, amazingly I was OK without any of those.  Rather, I felt even better.  You get used to it.  You should try this if you have preference over particular foods which are not good for your health.  However, on the fifth day or so, I had to drive more than three hours at night to go to my daughter’s cross country regional meet.  Dryving at night after a long day is not my thing.  So, I had to drink a cup of coffee on the way, and that was the only time I had coffee during this 7 day detox period.   When I shared a hotel room with another parent, she saw me taking NutriClean and asked me what I was taking.  I honestly said that I was in the period of detox.  After that, she seemed to make sure that she would go to the bathroom before I had to go. So, you should think and plan your schedule in advance if like to detox your system.


Anyway, on the 6th day or so, I finally started to feel the diferrence. My lower abdominal area got flatten and I felt so lighter than before. I am naturally a small person, but I had noticed my bulging lower stomach at that time. So I was so happy just to see my flat stomach again. Then, I realized that flattening lower abdomen was still possible at my middle age.  To summarize, the feeling of the cleansing effect from NutriClean was obvious.  


Then, I finally could start to take Isotonix OPC-3.  I will talk about the effect/result in the next blog since it is almost 10:00 pm, close to my bed time. 


Good night,everyone there. 







     

The United States Ranked Highest for Obesity among OECD Nations

The Organisation for Economic C-operation and Development, OECD, is an international economic organization composed by thirty four counties.  In its publication of Health at a Glance 2011 released on November 23, 2011, OECD provides an insight of health systems in OECD countries.

According to the comparable data over the past 50 years, life expectancy in OECD countries has improved tremendously.  Japan is the leading nation in this area.

Although tobacco and alcohol consumptions have been reduced in the last decades, there is an alarming rise in obesity. The publication stated “Obesity is a key risk factor for numerous chronic conditions. Research shows that severely obese people die 8-10 years earlier than those of normal weight.”  Among the 34 countries, United States has the highest obesity rate among the adult population, which is 34%.  The countries with the lowest rate are Korea and Japan at the rate of 4%.

Santander's Bankers are at Risk of Heart Disease

There is an interesting article on the Bloomberg web site; About half of middle-aged staff tested at Banco Santander SA, the biggest bank in Spain, show early stage disease of the arteries that could cause heart attacks or strokes.

The article pointed out “The issue of banker stress has hit the headlines this month with news that Antonio Harte Osorio, 47, a former head of Santander’s U.K. business, had taken leave from his post as chief executive officer of Lloyds Banking Group Plc because of fatigue.” 

According to the Madrid-based National Center for Cardiovascular Research known as CNIC, Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the world with 1.9 million fatalities a year in the European Union alone.

High cholesterol diet, sedentary lifestyle, smoking and obesity contribute cardiovascular disease.  According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), "785,000 Americans have a first heart attack every year, and another 470,000 who have already had one or more heart attacks have another attack." CDC also stated that the heart disease costs the U.S. $316.4 million in total  in 2010 alone.

Prevention care has been talked for a decade, and we individually have to take active responsibility to oversea our health.  Change your life style; move around, eat less and healthy diet, exercise regularly, rest well and get educated. Not only bankers are at risk of having heart diseases but also all of us, if we don't take proactive measurement.
